My Little Pony Friendship is Magic in: Hansel and Gretel
A retelling of The Brothers Grimm's Fairy Tale
Narrated by: Princess Celestia
Once upon a time, in the land of Equestria, there lived a young filly colt and a mare named Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy. They lived with their friend, Fancy Pants. Fancy Pants was a very rich stallion. His original old friend, Fleur Dis Lee, passed away way before Tensel Taps and Futtelshy got their cutie marks. Fancy Pants then refriended a pink earth pony named Suri Polomare and became a new member. Unlike Fleur Dis Lee who was kind and nice, Suri was vain and mean.
One day, Fancy Pants had one problem. He doesn't really know what to do with all of the bits he had around his house. "What can we do with all of these bits I have around this house?" Fancy Pants asked. Due to her family being very poor in a far away land, Suri said,
[Suri Polomare]
We ran out of food again!
Let's take Tensel and Futtel to the woods,
And then, we should just leave them there!
Fancy Pants was shocked, but he was worried about Suri Polomare's family being very poor. He soon agreed with the plan. Tensel Taps and Futtelshy soon overheard this. They are very surprised. Futtelshy started to cry. "Not to worry, Fluttelshy." Tensel confronted. "I know there might be a way to get us home." Tensel Taps soon went outside that night and sat on a log. Suddenly, he noticed the moon began to lighten up the white pebbles. This gave Tensel Taps a brilliant idea.
[Tender Taps]
Maybe, I'll need these pebbles.
I'm going to keep these pebbles in my pocket.
The next day, Fancy Pants and Suri Polomare took Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy to The Everfree Forest. Tensel Taps dropped the white pebbles one by one to mark their way home. When they reached the end of The Everfree Forest, Suri said, "We'll be back here for a minute." Fancy Pants and Suri Polomare soon left The Everfree Forest. The night time came, but Fancy Pants and Suri Polomare didn't come back even after a very, very long time. "I'm scared, Tensel!" Fluttelshy said in fear. "Don't worry, Futtelshy." Tensel said. "Let's be brave and wait a little more."
Soon, the moon rose and it lightened up the trail of white pebbles. Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy followed the white pebbles and they came back home.
[Tender Taps]
Fluttel, that's our house over there!
[Fluttershy]
Really? Thanks to these bright pebbles!
A moment later, Suri Polomare has a serious conversation for Fancy Pants about her poor family. "My family will starve to death!" Suri said. "This time, we will leave them in the deeper woods!" Fancy Pants sadly agreed with the plan. Tensel Taps was about to pick up the white pebbles again, but the door was locked.
The next day, while Fancy Pants, Suri Polomare and Futtelshy are walking through the deepest part of The Everfree Forest, Tensel Taps dropped the bread crumbs to mark their way home. After reaching the deepest part of The Everfree Forest, Suri said, "We'll be back after four minutes." And Fancy Pants and Suri Polomare soon left The Everfree Forest.
The night time came, as Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy were about to follow the trail of breadcrumbs, they noticed they weren't there. The birds had eaten all of the breadcrumbs. Fluttelshy puts her hoof onto her eyes and starts to cry.
[Tender Taps]
I don't know where to go.
We're lost in the woods.
"What should we do?" Fluttelshy sobbed.
Tensel Taps holds onto Fluttelshy's hoof and walked through The Everfree Forest. They became tired and hungry from all of that walking. Suddenly, Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy soon came across a house that was made out of sweets.
[Tender Taps]
Mmmm!
I smell something sweet and yummy!
Come on, let's go over there!
Lots of cookies and gummies!
It's the sweetest house ever!
[Fluttershy]
Roofs made out of soft, creamy cakes,
Chorus: Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum!
Walls made out of crunchy cookies,
Chorus: Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum!
Eat chocolate doors before it's late,
Lick candy windows.
Goody-goody!
Suddenly, the chocolate door soon began to creak open. A changeling with green eyes and holes on her hooves soon came.
[Queen Chrysalis]
Who's eating my house?
Who's at the door?
Aw, how darling that you are!
Welcome to The Cookie Restaurant!
You can eat as much as you want!
The changeling was Queen Chrysalis. She was a changeling who eats ponies! Queen Chrysalis lured the ponies into the cookie house. Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy don't really know who she was. They are very hungry, so they devour the food prepared by Queen Chrysalis. Queen Chrysalis also gave them two cozy beds. While Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy are asleep, Queen Chrysalis laughed and said,
[Queen Chrysalis]
Should I grill them, or steam them?
Ponies are so yummy!
They're two of them!
The next day, Queen Chrysalis shouted, "Wake up right now, you lazy ponies!" Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy soon woke up. Queen Chrysalis took Tensel Taps to a cage and locked him up. She forced Fluttelshy to do all of the housework.
[Queen Chrysalis]
I'll gobble you up!
I'll fatten you up!
Clean the house, Fluttel!
If you work hard, I won't eat you.
Eat and eat some more, Tensel!
Hahahahahaha!
Come on now! Keep eating, Tensel!
Be chubby! Gain some weight!
Yum! I can't wait!
Queen Chrysalis checked on Tensel Taps everyday to see if he was fat. "Let me check on your hoof, Tensel Taps!" Queen Chrysalis said. Tensel Taps then puts a bone instead of his hoof. Queen Chrysalis soon felt the bone. She thought that he was not fat. "Why are you still thin?" Queen Chrysalis asked impatiently.
[Queen Chrysalis]
Now, I can't wait anymore!
Tomorrow, I will eat you up for sure!
Fluttelshy started crying because she did not know what to do. Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy couldn't sleep all night. The next day, Queen Chrysalis said, "Check out the oven if it was hot enough!" Queen Chrysalis is gonna eat up Fluttelshy first. Fluttelshy soon noticed the trick. "I don't know how to do it." Fluttelshy said. "Hmph! You silly mare! Look, this is how you do it!" Queen Chrysalis explained. As she pushed her head into the oven, Fluttelshy pushed Queen Chrysalis into the oven! "AHHHH! HOW DARE YOU!" Queen Chrysalis screamed.
Fluttelshy found the key and opened the cage. Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy hugged each other and jumped for joy!
[Fluttershy]
Tensel, the mean old changeling is dead!
The mean old changeling is gone!
The one who eats ponies?
There is none!
[Tender Taps and Fluttershy]
Thank goodness!
This is so cool!
[Fluttershy]
Let's go back to our home sweet home!
[Tender Taps]
Bye, cookie house!
Goodbye now!
[Tender Taps and Fluttershy]
With lots of gold coins and jewels,
Let's go back to our home sweet home!
Tensel Taps and Fluttelshy finally made it back home. Fancy Pants was there. Suri Polomare has died of hunger after she moved out to her poor family. Fancy Pants was very happy to see two friends again.
[Fancy Pants]
Oh, I've been wandering through the woods looking for you.
I'm so sorry.
Please, forgive me.
[Tender Taps]
Of course, Fancy Pants,
We forgave you. Yes, we do.
[Tender and Fluttershy]
Let's forget the past and start anew!
