In a forest late at night close to dawn, Cadance, Sunset and Flash were now walking through a forest.

"I don't know if we're gonna find anyone here, Cadance." Sunset said. "I'm surprise even this land even exists."

"We just have to keep looking." Cadance said.

"It's funny how we didn't came across anything since been here." Flash said.

And then a branch was heard snapping nearby as they looked around.

"What was that?" Cadance said.

"Stay here, I'll take a look." Sunset said walking ahead.

And Cadance and Flash glanced each other unsure if they were alone.

Sunset walks a little distance away from them as she looked around.

Shes looks around the area and saw that nothing was there, and then a branch landed in front of her.

Confused by this, Sunset looked up and lit her horn to get a better look and sitting still in the branches of a tree was a panther.

Meanwhile, Cadance and Flash were still waiting for Sunset.

"She should've been back by now." Cadance said. "Where is she?"

And then a rustle was heard close by as they looked around.

Then suddenly Sunset flies by them and hits the side of a tree and then Cadance fires a beam at the direction where Sunset came from. And they remained silent for a moment.

Then suddenly the panther lunges from the bushes behind and swatted his paw at Flash throwing him aside. And then Cadance and Sunset turn to him and fired beams at him at he quickly dodges them and kicks Sunset away.

Then a light blue beam nearly hits him as he quickly dodges it and turns to Cadance.

The panther growled and then charged as Cadance fires a beam trying to hit him. But he quickly knocks her off her hooves and pins her on the ground.

"T'Challa, no!" A voice suddenly cried.

T'Challa then stops and got off Cadance as then a figure appeared from the shadows as it was a pony with a black suit of some kind with a necklace with silver teeth. And then the helmet reacts revealing to be Twilight.

"Cadance?" Twilight said bewildered seeing her sister-in-law.

"Twilight?" Cadance said getting up almost thinking she's looking at a ghost. "Is that really you?"

"Twilight?!" Sunset and Flash exclaimed.

"Flash? Sunset?" Twilight smiled.

"Oh, where have you been?!" Cadance hugged Twilight. "I thought you were dead!"

"We all did." Sunset said.

And then Okoye appeared from the bushes.

"You froze." Okoye said to T'Challa.

"Ah..." T'Challa said uneasily.

"Seeing you again, you don't know what this will mean to everyone." Cadance said. "You have to come home."

"I'm sorry to interrupt." T'Challa said. "But we need to head back now."

"You 3 have to come with us, come on." Twilight said.

Cadance, Sunset and Flash glanced each other and shrugged as they followed her.

And soon, they entered a Wakandan aircraft and flew off.

Before long, the sun begins to rise as they soon reached the city of Wakanda.

"This never gets old." T'Challa said.

And the aircraft flew over as lots of creatures below begin to go about their day. And surprisingly, 2 kinds of dragons actually live here as well. Fire Wyverns and Plasma Dragons.

And soon, the aircraft came to a landing pad near the palace as Ramonda and Shuri, and the Dora Milaje stood by.

They soon exit the aircraft and went up to Ramonda and Shuri.

"Queen Mother... Please allow me to introduce my friend Sunset Shimmer, Flash Sentry, and my sister-in-law Princess Cadance." Twilight respectfully bowed.

"Thank you, Twilight." Ramonda said. "And welcome to Wakanda Sunset Shimmer, Flash Sentry and Princess Cadance. I do apologize for what happened earlier."

"Thank you." Cadance respectfully bowed.

"Take them to the quarters to be settled." Okoye said to a Lioness.

"Yes, general." The Lioness replied.

She then bowed and leads Cadance, Sunset and Flash away as they followed her.

"Did he freeze?" Shuri asked.

"Like an antelope in headlights." Okoye joked.

And Shuri laughed at that.

"Are you finished?" T'Challa asked as Okoye winked.

And Okoye leads the rest of the Dora Milaje to the palace.

Later toward midday, Crystal and Artica volunteered to show Cadance and Sunset around.

"This is really amazing." Cadance said.

"Where's Flash?" Sunset asked.

"I think he went with Twilight." Crystal said.

And Cadance and Sunset glanced each other slyly.

"I can only imagine what those 2 will do." Cadance said.

Elsewhere, Twilight was giving Flash a personal tour as they were at a field near a lake.

Then some moths flew off and around them as they watched and bumped into each other.

Soon they near the lake as Twilight then noticed the look on Flash's face, and then he rushed leaving Twilight completely confused.

Then suddenly he came back flying over her and then fell into the water. Concernedly, Twilight looked around the water as then suddenly Flash pop out and grabs her and then pulls her into the water.

Twilight quickly rose up and quickly climbs out of the water shivering from the cold water. And Flash came out as she playfully smirked and then pushed him into the water and runs off.

They soon chased each other across the field as they both stumbled. And they both laughed as then suddenly out of the blue Twilight suddenly kissed him on the cheek. Which caught Flash by surprise as they both smiled.

The 2 then went up to a hilltop and lay down next to each other as Twilight rested her head on Flash's shoulder.

And from a safe distance, Cadance and Sunset saw them and smiled.

Shortly later, they join back up with Cadance and Sunset.

"I told you." Twilight said. "Isn't it great here? You know, maybe it could be like this forever."

"It's amazing." Cadance said. "But there's-there's something I don't understand."

"As well as us 2." Sunset said.

"If you've were alive all this time... why haven't you come home?" Cadance asked. "We've really needed you."

"They're fine, all right?" Twilight said dismissively. "Nobody needs me."

"You're the princess." Sunset said.

"Guys, they're better off without me." Twilight said.

"Twilight, Darkshine's decimated Equestria." Cadance said.

"What?" Twilight turned to her.

"Everything's gone!" Flash said. "There's hardly any food, any water left. He's taken control and has the Tao Tei and villains as his army."

"And Monster Zero has the Titans under his control and destroying Equestria!" Sunset added. "Twilight, if you don't do something, everyone will starve."

"There's nothing I can do." Twilight said walking off.

"What about your friends?" Cadance said. "Your parents, grandmother, and Flurry. This is your responsibility. You need to challenge Darkshine."

"I can't go back. Ever." Twilight said.

"Why?" Cadance asked. "Because of what happened?"

"You wouldn't understand!" Twilight said. "My magic's gone. None of it matters. Okay? Look, sometimes bad things happen, and there's nothing you can do about it. So, why worry?"

"Why worry?" Sunset said in disbelief. "What happened to you?"

"You're not the Twilight we remember." Cadance said.

"And I never will be." Twilight said growing irritated. "Look, Emma was right all this time. Every time I defeat a villain, a more dangerous one is bound to show up sooner or later. Even if I do defeat them all, how do I another won't show up. And Tyrant warned I'd pick a fight I can't win, and clearly I lost this time. Are you satisfied?"

"No, we're disappointed." Cadance said.

"You know, now you're starting to sound like my grandfather." Twilight said.

"Good. I'm glad one of us does." Cadance said.

And that deeply struck a nerve on Twilight.

"You have no idea what I've been through!" Twilight snapped turning to them.

"We came here looking for help." Cadance said. "I guess we made a mistake. Goodbye, Twilight."

And Cadance, Sunset and Flash turn away and walk off.

And soon, Twilight turns and leaves a different direction and broke a tear.

Many miles away in Equestria, a Saurian Osprey descends as a rainstorm occurred.

MOTHRA COCOON SITE

PUNNAN RAINFOREST, POINA

A Monarch base camp was set up near the waterfall where Mothra has cocooned herself. And strangely a herd of feral Brachiosaurus have gathered near the waterfall.

And a team of members were in a tent as the Titans' wrath was a constant watch.

"Anything?" A brown Pegasus named Brooks asked.

"Dr. Brooks." A Dromaeosaurus said. "We've lost contact with the Argo, Castle Bravo and the other containment sites. Angkor Pon Wat, Black Skull Island, Stone Mountain. All the Titans, they're escaping."

And then Brooks noticed the screen showing Monster Zero as he calls out.

"Wait, wait, wait." Brooks said. "It's... it's him." He gestured to Monster Zero. "He's the one doing this. They're responding to his call."

And then thunder was heard crashing as the lights flickered.

"Where's Dr. Ling?" Brooks asked.

"She's outside." The Dromaeosaurus said.

And Brooks went near outside the tent.

"Dr. Ling! We've lost contact with Monarch." Brooks called out. "Dr. Ling?"

His partner, Ling who is a Guanlong has her attention on the waterfall at Mothra's cocoon.

Then soft chittering was heard from Mothra's cocoon as then strangely the Brachiosaurus started bellowing out. And then Mothra's cocoon started flashing. And then the wind whistled as dust particles appeared and swirled around near the cocoon as the chittering continues.

Everyone soon started to gather as the flashing continues on the cocoon. And then a crack appeared as then a huge leg appeared as then the lamp posts shorted out.

And the particles formed near the water as then the cocoon moves as then something started climbing out from inside. And a large moth silhouette was seen from behind the water as everyone watched astonished by the sight.

And then the giant moth like creature brought her colossal wings out showing a bioluminescent glow as the Brachiosaurus herd then bowed their heads down.

And the giant moth lets out a screech as she reveals to be Mothra.

Meanwhile, in the unknown bunker, Emma was trying to reason with Madison.

"Madison, wait!" Emma tried to reasoned.

"Get away from me!" Madison said not interested of what she has to say.

"Look, I know things haven't gone exactly according to plan, but I can fix this." Emma said.

"According to plan?" Madison said in disbelief. "You said that you were gonna be careful. That you'd release them 1 at a time, that you would restore balance! And stop the villains completely."

"They were gonna take over Monarch and kill the Titans." Emma said. "Twilight would lose eventually. I didn't have a choice."

"Bull wrong!" Madison turned to her. "You said we were doing this for Andrew."

Emma remained sadly silent.

"Do you really think he would've wanted this?" Madison said tearfully.

Emma remained sadly silent mouthing silently.

And Madison sniffled. "Exactly."

Madison then turns away.

"And because of you, Twilight's gone." Madison added. "I also hope you now call it even of everything she done for us even though she wasn't there to save him. Death for a death."

And she went into a room and closed the door.

"Madison!" Emma said.

Madison sat on the bed as Emma knocked on the door.

"Madison!"
