As the gang used Blazing Speed to zip back to town, the ice dragons were preparing themselves for another round of battle when the phoenixes closed in on them, making Dalia cackle.
"FINISH THEM!! FINISH THEM ALL!!"
The phoenixes gave a bow before moving closer to the ice dragons.
"Wait, stop! Please!" came Blaze's voice.
They all turned to see Blaze and his Family zoom towards them with their Blazing Speed. They skidded to a stop to face them.
"Who are you?" asked Dalia with a raised eyebrow.
"We're the ones stopping you from your evil scheme, Dalia!" Phoenix snarled. "Imaria, show everyone her true side-- like when she murdered the queen of the phoenix shifters!"
Everyone gasped at the news. Dalia snarled.
"You have no proof!"
"Oh, yes we do!" said Blaze. "Imaria, show them!"
Imaria nodded and raised her horn, which started to glow. And, the very image of the queen being murdered was shown, causing the crowd of creatures to gasp and murmur.
"The ice dragons were framed of killing the queen by Dalia, so she could have all magic to herself!" Blaze said, climbing onto the top of a popcorn stand. "If we don't stop her, who knows what she'll do next!"
"Listen to my brother!" Crusher pleaded.
Dalia gulped as the phoenixes started to murmur and glare at her.
"Your... brother?" asked a familiar voice from the crowd of dragons that made Crusher wince.
And out of the crowd emerged Krisha, looking furious. Crusher's eyes widened.
"M-Mother?"
"Well, you brat, I don't care who killed who," Krisha snarled, pulling out a gun, "but I'M gonna kill YOU!!"
"You will do no such thing!" Imaria snorted, standing in front of Crusher fiercely.
"Help us, everyone!" Sparkle begged. "Help us banish Dalia away for good and you can all be friends again!"
"No!" Dalia shook her head. "Don't do IT! They… They're lying! It's all… It's all fake!"
"But if it came from Imaria, it must be the truth!" said one dragon. "Banishment, it is!"
"Everyone, work together!" Blaze shouted. "Imaria, protect Crusher from Krisha!"
The phoenixes and the dragons seem to make a compromise as they nodded and surrounded Dalia. Imaria kept an eye on Krisha, who hadn't moved an inch as she glared at the alicorn and the dark blue truck.
"STUPID ALICORN!" Krisha yelled. "Get out of my way!!"
"NEVER!!"
As for the others, they were combining their paws to send a strong vortex toward Dalia, who was trying her best to hold on.
"No! NO!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!"
"Give it all we got!" Flame commanded.
The vortex started to get stronger, and Dalia shrieked as she felt one of her wings being already pulled inside.
"Nononononono!!!"
Soon, the vortex managed to get a hold of her completely, and they all cheered as she got sucked inside and disappeared.
"We did it!" Sparkle cheered. "Now what to do about the mean dragon witch?"
"We'll take her," Officer Anna said. "Krisha, dragon or not, you're under arrest for the attempted murder of your son."
"What?! NO!!" Krisha screamed. "All of you will pay for this! Especially you, Lightning Brat!"
Crusher sighed in relief as his mother was dragged away, and Pickle gently touched his shoulder. "Are you okay?"
"Better now," Crusher smiled then he turned to the alicorn. "Thank you, Imaria, for defending me,"
"It's my pleasure. Now, I think it's time for me to return home. But, I talked things out with your father, and now that you and Blaze control the stone, you can summon me anytime."
"Wow... thank you. For everything."
With that, she disappeared back into the stone at Blaze approached.
"Ready to head home, bro? We had a super long day."
Crusher smiled at his little brother and pulled him close. "I thought you'd never ask."
