A few hours after Captain Hook and Mr. Smee left, Mordecai woke up.

"The hell with those guys!" The blue jay wizard shouted. "I've got magic! Gotonius basni varsinisn basti gumtina crosti stormily hasti!"

Weird lights emitted all around him. And the tree that he was tied to came to life…as a female Douglas Fir. She looked down at Mordecai, with love in her eyes.

"I love you," she said, hugging him tightly. "Oh, I love you. Love love love love love love!"

"Oh, no. What have I done?" Mordecai groaned.

"Always, always," the Tree gushed. "Faithfulness beyond any man's deserving. I will keep the color of your eyes, when no other in the world remembers your name. There is no immortality, but a tree's love."

As she mushed the young wizards face to her truck, Mordecai said aloud: "Oh, God, I'm engaged to a Douglas Fir. Twilight! Rigby! Where are you guys?!"

At that moment, the purple alicorn pony and her raccoon companion walked out of the woods. They both looked worst for ware, as if they had just been in a fight.

"Well, that was an interesting little detour," Twilight Sparkle said.

"Yes, and let us never speak of it again," Rigby added.

Twilight nodded. "Agreed."

When they discovered that the Ewoks were planning to eat them, the duo found that they had to fight their way out. It wasn't easy, as the Ewoks were both numerous and furious. They managed to escape when Twilight set a few of the furry little bastards on fire with her magic.

"Twilight! Rigby! Where are you guys?!"

Both pony and raccoon turned their heads to see Mordecai, tied up and being smother by a living tree.

"Hey, check out. We've found Mordecai," Rigby said.

"I'll go untie him," Twilight sighed.

As she walked closer, the Tree's attitude change. As did the weather apparently, reflecting her jealousy, with strong winds and lighting suddenly appearing.

"Oh, galls and fire blight," the Tree shouted as she smothered Mordecai more. "She will never have you, the hussy! We will perish together!"

Twilight then emitted a steam of magic at the Tree. It goes dead and the ropes binding Mordecai drop off of him.

After he told them what happened to him, Mordecai and his two friends went back into the woods, just as dawn began to rise.

A few minutes late, Mordecai said excitedly; "Did you guys see that? Did you see what I did?!"

Twilight nodded. "Yes, it was true magic."

"I'm telling you buddy, if you can learn to do more of that, we'd have one hell of an act to put on for Las Vegas!" Rigby stated excitedly. "Just think of the money…and all of the showgirls…"

"Yeah. It's gone now, but I-I had it," Mordecai said. "It had me, but it's gone. I-I couldn't hold it."

Suddenly, a familiar voice called out. "Leaving us so soon, magician?"

Our intrepid trio looked to spot Margret, leaning against a nearby tree. But then she spotted Twilight and gasped. "No…can it truly be? Where have you been? Where have you been?! Dang you, where have you been?!"

Taken aback by her aggressive attitude, Mordecai jumped to the pony's defense. "Don't you talk to her that way!"

Margret just ignored him and pushed him aside to get up close to Twilight.

"Well, I'm here now," Twilight said.

"And where were you fifteen years ago?" Margret chuckled bitterly. "Ten years ago…when I was the same age as my mother and grandmother when they first saw…how dare you! How dare you ignore me in my childhood! Making me believe that you didn't exist."

She then dropped to her knees and began to sob.

Twilight began to nuzzle her in an effort to provide comfort.

"Y-you can see her?" Mordecai asked her. "Do you know what she is?"

"When you've waited to see a pony as long as I have…"

"Twilight's quite possibly the last pony in the world."

Margret smiled. "It would be the last pony in the world that would come to me." She then gently patted Twilight on the muzzle. "It's alright. I forgive you…"

"Well, I guess we better get going," Rigby said.

The blue jay nodded in agreement. "Right you are, dude. Come on, Twilight."

Margret got up. "I'm ready too."

"What?! You can't come with us!" Mordecai exclaimed. "We're on an epic quest!"

"Well, I guess I'll be on an epic quest then," Margret stated. "You can ask Twilight here."

"Never! I, Mordecai the Magician, forbid it! And be wary of wousing a wizard's wrath - rousing a rizard's - rou - Be wary of making a-a magician angry! If I chose I could turn you into a frog!"

Margret began to chuckle. "If you want to make me laugh to death, then that might work. Have some sense. There's no reason for me not to go. And anyway, what were you going to do with the last alicorn in the world. "

"Do you think we should interfere?" Rigby asked.

"Let's not and see how it goes," Twilight answered in a hushed tone.

"You don't even know where we're going!" Mordecai snapped at the red jay.

"Do you really think that matters to me?"

"We are travelling to Count Dooku's territory to find the Iron Dragon, Predaking!"

"If that's true, then I'm afraid that you're going the wrong way."

"Say what?"

"Count Dooku's castle is located by the sea, which is in the opposite direction of where you're going."

"How do you know that?"

"Just look at the sign next to you."

Mordecai turned his head, and there it was: a sign post with the words 'Count Dooku's Castle-30 miles.'

"Lucky guess…"

Later that afternoon, our group of heroes are walking down a path, leading towards the coastline.

"I'm sorry. But you were going the wrong way, magician," Margret said.

"She's right dude," Rigby added, riding on Twilight's back again. "Dooku's place is on Moogle-Maps and the Internet never lies."

"Yeah, well, it was a short cut," the wizard huffed.

Twilight chuckled good-naturedly.

As the sun began to go down, Twilight and her friends stand on a hill overlooking the landscape.

Towards the horizon, a decrepit, evil looking castle stood on top of a cliff.

"Count Dooku's fortress," Mordecai said somberly. "If we walk on for a few more hours, we'll reach it by tomorrow."

"Where does Count Dooku keep Predaking?" Twilight asked him.

"I have heard that he roams around at night, and lies in an underground cavern during the day. But we'll find out soon enough…"

Sorry for the long delay. Please read and review!
