Chapter 2: Ponyville

A/N: Enjoy!

Summary: In the last chapter, we find Celestia and the riders discussing about their plan to finally defeat Nightmare Moon once and for all. They soon asked Spells to join them so they could tell him of the plan. While they were discussing, Spells was at the library, discovering hat Twilight Sparkle, his student, was about to find out his true identity but he managed to stop her.

Disclaimer: I do not own Kamen rider or My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. But I own the riders's Alicorn forms and their new names, I also own Midnight and also this version of the show.


As Spells arrived in the Throne Room via teleportation, he was greeted by the other Alicorns.

"Good to see you again, Spells. How was your morning?" Asked Celestia.

Spells yawned and replied,"It went well thanks to some plain sugar doughnuts. And by the way, you should reconsider republishing the book called 'The History of Equestria'. That book contains information about us being Kamen riders. Luckily, I was able to come up with a lie that Twilight fell for."

Flare had both his eyes widen when he heard Spells and he asked,"I'm sorry. Did I just heard you say that a book contains information about us being riders?" He received a nod from Spells. Flare walked up to Spells and said,"I'm glad you managed to keep it safe through a lie."

Spells shook his head and said,"Twilight's a smart girl. She almost saw through my lie but I was lucky she didn't."

"If our secret were to be discovered..."

Spells turned around to face Shade and he continued,"Then we would not only be endangering ourselves even more, we might also endanger the ponies of Equestria. Any wrong step will cost us. Be extra careful now alright, Spells?"

The Alicorn nodded with a bite out of a doughnut he just teleported and asked,"Oh, I was going to ask, why did you call me back?"

Flare sighed and said,"It seems the time has finally come for Nightmare Moon to make her escape from the moon. We suspect that she might be on her way to Ponyville, this year's location for the Summer Sun Celebration."

Placing a hoof on his chin, Spells asked,"So what do you need me to do?"

Celestia smiled and replied,"Oh you don't have to do anything. But I'm sure your student will."

Spells's eyes widen as he spoke,"Twilight?! Are you sure about that? I don't think she's ready."

Shaking her head, Celestia replied,"You're mistaken, Spells. You might know it but Twilight has been ready ever since the day we discovered her potential."

As Celestia levitated a piece of paper over to Spells, she said,"Spells, it is time for your student to realize her destiny."


Back at the library, Twilight was trotting around in a circle as she cried,"Prince Spells has been gone for a long time! I wonder what Princess Celestia is talking to him about. I hope it's about Nightmare Moon."

Across her, Spike was sitting at the top of a pile of books with an annoyed face. He got down from the books and said,"Calm down, Twilight. It's only been five minutes. The last time that you worried about him being gone was two weeks ago when he was gone for three minutes." Spike chuckled at the memory and continued,"That was hilarious too. I still remember you acting all serious just because he went to visit Prince Night Shade."

Just then, Spike covered his mouth and he soon burped out a puff of green smoke which soon became a letter which Twilight picked up using her magic.

She smiled as she spoke,"It's a letter from Prince Spells!"

The letter was soon grabbed by Spike as he read it out loud for Twilight,"My dearest student Twilight, it seems our lesson today has to be cancelled due to important matters..."

Worried, Twilight asked,"Spike, what kind of important matters does he mean?!"

Spike frowned and replied,"I was getting to that..." He cleared his throat before continuing,"It appears that Princess Celestia has given you the important task of supervising preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration in Ponyville, this year's location for the event. Be sure to look out of the library too. I have asked Shining Armor to escort you to the chariot that's waiting for you at the edge of Canterlot. The rest of this letter will be delivered once you are on the chariot." Spike closed the letter and said,"That's it."

Now, Twilight's worried face was swapped by an excited expression as she looked out of the window. To her surprise and delight, Shining Armor was already waiting for her outside.

The lavender Unicorn squealed delightfully as she placed Spike on her back and galloped her way to the door.

As soon as they were out, Shining Armor smiled and exclaimed,"Twily!"

The two siblings embraced each other in a hug and Shining Armor spoke,"Wow. When Prince Spells told me that you were in the library, he was right. I didn't expect you to even be here. I expected you to be at home. So, are you excited about your new position as the supervisor of the Summer Sun Celebration?"

Twilight nodded and replied,"Why wouldn't I be? I've already planned everything I want to do at Ponyville!"

Confused, Spike whispered,"Twilight, when did you planned? We just came out of the library."

Twilight whispered back,"Well, not exactly planned. But I know what I'll be doing there anyway. I'll tell you about it while we're heading there."


In the Canterlot Castle, Spells was looking out of the window where he watched as Twilight and Spike were following Shining Armor towards the chariot's location.

He looked back at Flare and asked,"Are you sure about this, sempai?"

Flare nodded and said,"I'm sure. Celestia has never been wrong about anything so it would go as plan. You should get ready your stuff."

Spells sighed as he walked out of the room to get his gears.

"Do you think his student can really break the curse of that Nightmare?" Shade asked with a hint of anxiousness.

Celestia gave Shade a reassuring smile and replied,"I know you miss Luna very much, Shade. But you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Spells's student, Twilight Sparkle, is sure to bring back the Luna we once loved and cared for. You just have to be patient till tomorrow. I have faith in Spells's student."


Once Twilight, Spike and Shining Armor had reached the chariot, Shining Armor placed a hoof on Twilight's back and said,"Alright, sis. Once you get on that chariot, you'll be heading towards Ponyville. And remember, you have Spike with you."

Twilight nodded as she and Spike both got onto the chariot.

Within seconds, the two Pegasus guards neighed as they flew off with the chariot.

Looking back, Twilight waved her hoof at her brother, who did the same.

As the chariot was shrinking as it continued its way towards Ponyville, Shining Armor asked,"Prince, are you sure about this?"

Spells soon appeared beside him and replied,"Believe me, Shining Armor. I don't want Twilight to get hurt just as much as you do. But it's what Celestia wants. She knows things that we don't. And that's our little secret or she'll have my head. Besides, I've sent someone to follow her."


"Spike," Twilight spoke."I think you should start reading the letter that Prince Spells was suppose to give us."

Spike started looking around the chariot and he soon found the letter underneath him. He picked it up and cleared his throat as he spoke,"Twilight, there is more to a young pony's life than studying. Princess Celestia knows that so that's why she's sending you to supervise the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration that's probably starting. And, both me and Celestia have an even more essential task for you to complete..." Spike leaned closer to her ear and continued,"Make some friends!"

Twilight groaned and Spike said,"Look on the bright side, Twilight. Prince Spells arranged for you to stay in a library. Doesn't that make you happy?"

After a moment of silence, Twilight stood up and said,"Yes! Yes it does. You know why? Because I'm right. I'll check on the preparations as fast as I can, then get to the library to find some proof of Nightmare Moon's return."

Spike asked,"Then when are you going to make some friends like what Prince Spells and Princess Celestia said?"

Twilight argued,"They said to check on the preparations. I am Prince Spells's students and I'll do my royal duty. But the fate of Equestria does not rest on me making friends. Oh look, we're here."

As they got off the chariot, Twilight walked up to the guards and said,"Thank you, sirs." The guards snorted in satisfaction as they flew off once more with the chariot.

Unknown to them, a small sapphire Unicorn had gotten off the chariot and it ran off.

"Maybe the ponies in Ponyville have interesting things to talk about." Spike said.

Just then, a pink mare with both fluffy pink mane and tail stopped in front of the two and Spike said,"Come on twilight, just try."

Sighing, Twilight walked up to the mare and said,"Uh...hello?"

The pink mare then gasped as she hang in the air for a brief second before zooming off.

Frowning, Twilight sarcastically said,"Well that was interesting alright. Anymore ponies you might wanna suggest, Spike?"


After walking for a few hours, the two had reached a farm and Spike said,"This seems to be the first thing on the list. Number one, banquet preparations. Sweet Apple Acres."

Just as they entered the front gate, they soon heard a mare with a Southern accent,"YEEHAW!"

Turning their heads to the side, they watched as the mare galloped up to a tree and bucked it, causing the apples on the tree to fall into the baskets surrounding the tree. When that was done, the mare smiled in satisfaction.

Twilight sighed again as she said,"Let's get this over with. We really need to find some evidence."

As they walked up to the mare, Twilight spoke,"Good afternoon. My name's Twilight Sparkle."

Once she was done, she felt her hand being squeezed and she looked down to see that the mare was holding her hoof with both of her hooves as she spoke,"Well, howdy-doo, Miss Twilight, a pleasure makin' your acquaintance. I'm Applejack. We here at Sweet Apple Acres sure do like making new friends!"

"Friends?" Twilight asked."Actually I..."

Applejack let go of Twilight's hoof and asked,"So, what can I do for ya?"

Spike looked over to Twilight to see that her hoof was still shaking from the hoof shake and he had to stop her. Spike giggled when Twilight managed to regain her balance and Twilight said,"Well, I am in fact here to supervise preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration. And you're in charge of the food?"

Applejack nodded and said,"We sure are! Would you care to sample some?"

Smiling, Twilight replied,"As long as it doesn't take too long."

Then, Applejack galloped towards to a rusty Triangle(Instrument) and she started ringing it as she cried,"Soup's on, everypony!"

Not long later, the whole of the Sweet Apple Acres family came charging in as they carried Twilight and Spike with them to a table.

A/N: Must I go on? The rest of the following will be the same as what happened in the first episode. So I'll skip to the part when they left the farm.


"Food's all taken care of. Next is weather." Spike said as he turned back to look at his friend.

Twilight groaned as she slowly trotted along behind Spike and she whined,"I ate too much pie just now. I don't think I can move."

Spike laughed and said,"Come on, Twilight! I know you can still move. Besides, Prince Spells taught you about eating too much."

"But all he ever eats is doughnuts!" Twilight complained.

Spike raised a finger to stop her and said,"Correction, all he ever eats is plain sugar doughnuts. That stallion can really chow down on those sugary delights. Anyway, next is weather. There's supposed to be a Pegasus Pony named Rainbow Dash clearing the clouds."

Twilight looked up at the sky and grumbled,"Well, she's not doing a very good job, is she?"

Before Spike could answer her, a cyan Pegasus mare crashed into Twilight and they both fell into a puddle of mud.

The Pegasus got up and looked down at Twilight and laughed,"Sorry. Let me help you." She flew off and returned with a rain cloud. The mare started jumping up and down on the cloud and water rained down on Twilight, washing away the mud off of her.

"Oops. I guess I overdid it." The mare then started flying around Twilight as created a mini tornado around the lavender mare.

However, the results she received was the opposite of what she had expected. Twilight's mane and tail were both as messier as Twilight's room when she couldn't find her favorite book.

The Pegasus started laughing and Spike soon joined in.

"Let me guess, you're Rainbow Dash." Twilight spoke.

The cyan Pegasus stopped her laughter and spoke,"The one and only. Why? You heard of me?"

"I heard you were supposed to be keeping the sky clear." Twilight sighed."I'm Twilight Sparkle and the Princess and Princes sent me to check on the weather."

Rainbow Dash waved her hoof,"Yeah, yeah. I'll get to it in a minute."

"What are you doing anyway?" Spike asked.

The cyan Pegasus got up from the cloud she was resting on and cried,"I'm training to join the Wonderbolts!" She pointed over to a poster of the Wonderbolts and continued,"They're gonna perform at the celebration tomorrow. And I'm gonna show them my skills!"

"The Wonderbolts?" Twilight asked. Rainbow Dash nodded as Twilight continued,"The most talented flyer of all of Equestria?" She scoffed,"Please! They'd never accept a Pegasus who can't even keep the sky clear for one day."

Rainbow Dash glared at the lavender Unicorn,"Hey! I can clear the sky in ten seconds flat."

Twilight smirked,"Prove it..."

Hearing this, Rainbow Dash immediately got off the cloud she was on and flew everywhere, bucking the clouds one by one.

Ten seconds later, she came back,"What'd I say? Ten...seconds...flat. I never leave Ponyville hanging." Instead of getting a reply, she was greeted by the awestruck faces of Twilight and Spike. Rainbow Dash laughed,"You should see the looks on your faces. You're a laugh, Twilight Sparkle. I can't wait to hang out some more."

As Rainbow Dash flew off, Spike spoke,"Wow. She's amazing. I wonder if Prince Flare would add her to the Wonderbolts!" Looking back at Twilight, Spike started touching her messy mane and giggled. Annoyed, Twilight rolled her eyes and left with Spike following her."Wait. It's kinda pretty once you get used to it."

Twilight groaned,"Whatever! Let's just get to the next place and just call it a day!"


In the Everfree Forest, Shade was standing in front of Celestia's and Luna's old castle with Kivat and Tatsulot.

"Hey, Shade. What are we doing here again? I don't remember Flare telling us to come here." Kivat said.

Shade replied,"We're here because I know this is where Nightmare Moon will be hiding. And when she does appear, we attack and get Luna back."

Tatsulot shivered from the sudden change of Shade's attitude and asked,"Shade? Is something wrong? You're not being your usual self right now."

Kivat quickly silenced his companion with a wing and whispered,"Don't say anything! Shade just entered his revenge state. You know what happens when a Fangire holds a grudge against someone? They won't do anything except defeat those they hate. So questioning Shade won't help you."

"Kivat!" Shade called.

Hearing his name, Kivat flew over to Shade as he was gripped by a magic aura produced by Shade, pulling him closer to Shade's hoof. Seeing this, Kivat opened his mouth,"BITE!" Biting Shade's hoof, his Fangire veins revealed themselves around his body with a fiery aura surrounding Shade as ghostly chains wrapped around his waist.

"Henshin." Shade levitated Kivat over to his belt and placed the mechanical bat onto it.

Shade was soon overshadowed by a silhouette of Kiva and soon appeared as the rider himself. He turned towards Tatsulot and raised his left wrist up,"Tatsulot! What are you waiting for?!"

Tatsulot gulped,"N-n-nothing!" He quickly attached himself to Shade's wrist and the chains around Shade's armor ripped apart, releasing golden bats that surrounded Shade as his armor was changed into a golden armor while his yellow visor was changed into a pair of red visors. With a wave of his hand, a cape materialized from the flames on his back as Shade stood in his Emperor form.

"Ready yourself, Nightmare Moon. I will soon get my Luna back if it's the last thing I ever do!" Shade muttered as he clenched his fists before entering the castle as a giant shadow that resembled a giant bat replaced Shade's shadow.

A/N: I am deeply sorry for not making any update for quite some time...please forgive me...
