It was a bright, sunny, peaceful day in the Dragon Realm, all was at peace, contributing to a certain heroic purple dragon's boredom.
Spyro was walking along the bright green grass of the Artisans world, with sparxs the dragonfly flying next to him.
"Man, I'm really bored sparx." Spyro said with a sigh. "I just wish something fun would happen. Maybe we should go to the Magic Crafters world and visit Wizards Peak, and have some fun on the super charge ramps."
At that moment a cheetah named Hunter ran up to Spyro, constantly calling his name.
Spyro sighed "What is it now Hunter?" He asked.
"Spyro!" Hunter cried. "It's horrible! Gnasty Gnorc and his Gnorcs are attacking the Magic Crafters world!"
"Gnasty Gnorc?" Spyro asked. "That oversized armored toad doesn't know when to give up. Tell them I'm on my way."
Hunter turned and ran back to where he came from, to inform them about Spyro on his way to save the Magic Crafters world.
Spyro ran to Marco the balloonist, who was standing in front of a huge hot air balloon.
"Spyro, my boy!" Marco said with a smile. "Where to?"
"Take me to Magic Crafters world. It's urgent." Spyro replied.
"No problem!" Marco said as Spyro climbed into the hot air balloon and cut the rope holding the balloon down.
In about an hour the hot air balloon arrived in the Magic Crafters world, Spyro saw the place flooding with Gnorcs.
"Finally! Some action!" Spyro said as he jumped out the hot air balloon and charged several Gnorcs.
Soon, Spyro came to the top of a hill, and saw several Gnorcs rolling away a giant bolder, revealing a portal that Spyro was unfamiliar with, the portal was labeled, "Equestria".
Also standing there, watching the Gnorcs roll away the stone, was Gnasty Gnorc, and a short creature standing next to him, wearing a purple cloak, both had their backs turned on Spyro, not noticing his presence.
"Now, we enter Equestira, obtain the goods, then we can conquer both the Dragon Realm, AND this primitive world!" The purple cloaked one said.
"Not if I have anything to say about it." Said Spyro.
Gnasty Gnorc and the purple cloaked creature turned around, revealing to be Ripto!
"Well now" Spyro said. "Gnasty Gnorc and Ripto. What are you two doing out here, and what do you want this time?" Spyro asked in a heroic tone.
"SPYRO!?" Ripto cried in surprise. "You were not supposed to arrive this early!"
"Well, when two idiot bad guys try to take over my home world, it's kind of hard to resist." Spyro said in a cocky tone.
At that second several Gnorcs tackled and held Sypro down.
"HEY!" Spyro cried. "Let me go!"
Gnasty Gnorc laughed. "Fool, not even a pipsqueak dragon like YOU can stop our latest plan!"
"You see…" Ripto started, "When you humiliated both of us, the two of us got together and formed an alliance, we decided to work together to destroy you, and conquer the Dragon Realm, until we discovered this world called 'Equestria'. This world is RICH with magic, enough magic to give Gnasty and I enough power to conquer every single world in the universe!" Ripto explained laughing evilly.
"You won't be conquering anything! I will stop you!" Spyro cried struggling to break free.
"Crush! Gulp!" Ripto yelled as Crush and Gulp walked up to him. "Come with Gnasty and me, together we will conquer this world."
Ripto, Gnasty Gnorc, Crush and Gulp all walked into the portal to Equestia.
Spyro immediately used his wings to push the Gnorcs off and charged into the portal, sparx following him.
Spyro and sparx tumbled through the sky toward the ground. Spyro opened his wings to start gliding, looking down on the land below him.
"So, this is Equestria huh?" Spyro said to himself. "Now to find Gnasty Gnorc and Ripto and stop them from whatever the-"
Spyro was interrupted by a streak of rainbow colors flying past him at amazing speeds, causing him to spin out of control again, and fall straight toward the ground.
MEANWHILE, IN CANTERLOT
Princess Celestia and her younger sister, Princess Luna, were all siting in the throne room of the Canterlot castle, when all the sudden, a guard came running in.
"Princesses'! It's an emergency!" The guard yelled.
"What is the problem?" Luna asked, surprised by this quick turn of events.
Suddenly, the throne room doors flung open, and in the doorway stood a giant, toad like creature with armor and a spiked club, standing next to him, a short, orange creature with a horn, wearing a purple cloak, and holding a staff with a red gem on top of it.
"T-that is…" The guard said pointing to them horrified.
"Ah, Princesses Celestia and Luna I presume?" The short orange creature asked.
"Who are you? And what do you want from here!?" Princess Celestia demanded to know.
"My name, is Ripto, and this big guy next to me is Gnasty Gnorc, and we are here to take what's rightfully ours, the throne of Equestria. Surrender it now, and I'll let you two get off easy." The short orange creature said.
"And what makes you think we'll give authority over all of Equestria to a menace like you?" Luna asked.
"Well…." Ripto said. "You're not surrendering it to us, very well."
Ripto held up his staff, and all the sudden Celestia and Luna were held in a telekinesis spell.
"Hey!" Luna shouted "Put us down immediately!"
"Crush." Ripto called snapping his fingers.
Crush walked up to the two princess Alicorns struggling to break free of Ripto's spell, a huge club in his hand.
"Night night." Crush said as he swung the club. Knocking Luna and Celestia unconscious.
"Take them to the dungeon, and lock them up!" Ripto ordered.
Crush took both Alicorn princesses and carried them down toward the dungeon, tossed them in a cell, and shut the cell and locked it tight.
"You two enjoy you're cell." Crunch chuckled as he walked away, leaving Celestia and Luna in the cell.
Ripto and Gnasty Gnorc walked up to the throne.
"Now WE rule Equestria!" Gnasty Gnorc chuckled.
"Ah, but our plan is not over yet my partner." Ripto said as he walked down a hallway toward a huge door.
"Before I had you send those two Gnorcs to this world to steal those magic books so you and I can learn this world's magic tricks, I studied the history of this world very closely, and learned this world has individuals that can stop us." Ripto said as he slid his staff into the lock of the door, making it think it was Celestia's horn.
"What things in this world could POSSIBLY stop us!?" Gnasty Gnorc questioned. "Those were the PRINCESSES' of this world we just locked up!"
"There are six ponies in this world, who I read have defeated much evil in this world." Ripto said as the door slid open. "But, they are weak against us without these…"
Ripto pulled out a chest, opened it, revealing five necklaces, and a crown.
"These, from what I've read, are called 'The Elements of Harmony' "Ripto said. "These are what six certain ponies in this world used to defeat any evil who tried to conquer Equestria. But without them, they don't stand a chance. Gnasty Gnorc, you are to take these, and head back to the Dragon Realm, and hide these."
"But I want to stay here and conquer!" Gnasty roared.
"If we keep these in Equestria, those six ponies could defeat us, but have them in another dimension, that would put them far out of their reach. You guarding them in the Dragon Realm is an important role." Ripto said.
"Fine." Gnasty said as he took the box containing the elements of harmony and left the room, heading back to the Dragon Realm.
"Soon…" Ripto said. "The entire universe will be OURS!" Ripto laughed evily, but was interrupted by some coughs.
