This is the 19th chapter. I don't own the series of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

EkaSwede: You? Thanking me? And thinking I took that story? That's a load of bullshit! And yet you had the nerve to tell me LogantheJet copy and paste his story! I find that pretty pathetic of your words and you have no evidence to back it up! Now, looking at your reviews and seeing nothing but shitty complaints that ISN'T even a review or some advice. I could even report this. Also, your accusation of LogantheJet and me is a load of garbage and full of shit! The only shitty criticism you've only given me is the decency that I took Master Mr B's story which it's entirely bullshit. I have to do this in order to finish his work. That, and another shitty criticism you've given out is declare that LogantheJet stole Master Mr B's story which it's also bullshit thanks to you and your entitled ass. You don't even remotely give any advice or constructive criticism, nor make any attempts in the reasons why his story is copied. Haven't you ever thought about it, you fucking jackass? If not, then do yourself a favor and go fuck yourself...Fucking twit!

Oathvion: Why don't you back the hell off and quit blaming LogantheJet!? You're no better than EkaSwede or John Smith 135! I don't see you writing your own stories.

Magic Duel

After Princess Cadence and Shining Armor gave Twilight and the others an explanation about planning to adopt Gleaming Hope, which she accepts them as her new parents. They were that she was officially welcomed by Princess Cadence, Shining Armor, Twilight Sparkle, Twilight Velvet, and Night Light. She was also spending as much cuddle time as possible.

After that, Gleaming Hope had stopped having nightmares after making closure with her late parents. She started sleeping more in peace when she slept with Princess Cadence and Shining Armor. She also gets to play with her cousins and her friends by playing football after she explains how it works. Both Princess Cadence and Shining Armor wanted to do something special for Gleaming Hope, so they took her to a bakery shop at the Crystal Empire. Gleaming Hope was so happy that she gets a cinnamon bun. Gleaming Hope also got a souvenir from her aunt, her cousins, and her grandparents: a Crystal Heart necklace, a feather, and a book for her to learn spells.

After spending a few more days at the Crystal Empire, Twilight and the others are heading back to Ponyville. Princess Cadence and Shining Armor along with Gleaming Hope are heading back to the castle. But after they made an announcement, the Crystal Ponies welcomes her with an open heart and she's now a princess. Both Princess Cadence and Shining Armor were to have given Gleaming Hope what she really needed: a new life and a loving family once more. They were happy to give her what she needed.

It was currently evening as dusk was approaching in Canterlot. Trixie isn't performing for tonight because of her having a young colt known as Piotr, who was born as human from Petrozavdok, Russia. Piotr had a family were part of the military living at the base. His father is a Spetsnaz, and his mother is a medical doctor along with his uncles who are the curator for the museum while reminding them about the Romanov family and Tsar Nicholas II. He mostly spends his time with his uncles while his parents are away, but he was suffering of cancer which devastated his family. His mother tried everything to get his son well, but the symptom has made it worse, and Piotr is dying. As time went by Piotr died at the age of 6, but not before he made his last wish on finding a family who accepted him and for his family to have another chance to have a child.

Trixie isn't any better, mainly because she tries to perform during her time in Equestria. However, everypony knows of the Ursa Minor incident at Ponyville, and they all just laughed and insulting her, and the worst that happened was that some ponies just throwing random food. She was just so broken by all of this, and it made her work at the rock farm to earn bits. Then, she accidentally found the Maternity flower and it her given birth to a Russian colt with the help of the Pie family.

Piotr was freaking out at first, but Trixie was able to get him to settle down in order to find out where did he come from. He explained his backstory and how he died from cancer, which she felt bad for him. Trixie then explains about Equestria and about herself, which cost her to find a job in order to make bits. Though, she doesn't know how to take care of him, but she needs to find a home in order to take care of the Russian colt.

She found a solution and it'll take them to Ponyville, which it's right now night and it's raining. She's wearing a cloak with solemn look on her face, sighs as she went inside of her caravan and sees Piotr whimpering in his sleep. She then walks inside, carries him and starts cradling him in a humming tone.

"Shhh...Shh...It's okay. Everything's going to be okay." Trixie whispered, soothing him as Piotr starts to calm down while she kissed him on his forehead and then snuggled to each other, making him listen to her heartbeat and then went to sleep.

However, there's a mysterious pony who wears a cloak to avoid the rain, hurries down the block of the alleys of Canterlot while staying behind the assorted vehicles and containers left out here. The pony continues galloping down the place before she spots a curio shop just up ahead of her. She instantly goes up to the shop and she throws open the door to enter the shop that she's looking for. She then darts around the place, knocking a book off a stack, eyeing the shelf holding other tomes and a skull-and-crossbones marked jar, even scoping a hollowed-out zebra head whose eyes have been removed. Seeing that it's not the object that she's looking for, she throws it off to the side.

A light then flicks on which turns her attention behind as she sees that there's a shopkeeper that owned the place.

"May I help you, traveler?" The shopkeeper asks as he make his way to his counter. "Hmm, something drew you to my shop...something powerful."

She says nothing, points over to an object resting under a small bell jar on a back shelf. It's a gray medallion with an upside-down triangle set with a large red, lozenge-shaped gem. Two red and gray wings stand up from the top corners of the triangle, and a red-eyed, gray unicorn head protrudes above the gems.

"Ah, you have a keen eye." The shopkeeper said as he rested a fore-hoof on the glass case. "The Alicorn Amulet is one of the most mysterious and powerful of all the known magical charms."

It was enough to convince a mysterious pony as she uses her horn to cast a sleeping spell, making the shopkeeper sleep while she stole the Alicorn Amulet and run off.

"With this amulet, I'll be the most powerful unicorn. And Lord Garmadon would be pleased when I'm done with the bearers of Harmony." The mare said with a sinister smirk. "First, it is time to get rid of the bearer of Magic...Twilight Sparkle."

My Little Pony, My Little Pony

Ahhhh

My Little Pony

I use to wonder what friendship could be

My Little Pony

Until you all share this magic with me

Big adventure,

Tons of fun,

A beautiful heart,

Faithful and strong,

Sharing kindness

It's an easy feat

And magic makes it all complete

You all have my little ponies

Do you know all you're my best friends?

The next day in Ponyville, it was bright and shiny as Mario, Twilight, Comet, Daylight, Winter Breeze, and Spike were over at Fluttershy's cottage helping her perform an advanced magic spelling using her animal friends as volunteers. Fluttershy was a little worried of the idea, but Twilight kept reassuring her that everything will be fine. Fluttershy is currently speaking with her animal friends.

"Don't be scared, little friends." Fluttershy said. "Twilight is wonderful with magic."

Flickering her eyes over her shoulder, she wheels to face Twilight, her sweet demeanor instantly replaced by naked hostility and she gives her a deep glare which made her leaned away.

"Anything happens to them, Twilight, so help me..."

Mario and Winter Breeze then gently pushes Fluttershy away from Twilight.

"Calm down, Fluttershy. Don't worry, Twilight has been practicing a lot and I've been supervising her." Mario assures her. "She has gotten so much better with magic."

"He's right." Spike agrees. "She's gotten a lot better ever since she almost crushed me and Applejack with a giant snowball if it hadn't for Comet."

Mario then smacked Spike as the back of his head, making him turn and see him, Comet, and Daylight glaring at him sternly as he chuckled nervously.

"But it was all because it was my idea in the first place and I was responsible for it." Spike added sheepishly.

"Thank you." Mario said before he gave Twilight a wink and a smirk.

She just looked at him and blushed sheepishly with a cute smile.

"Ignore what he said. Mom's really, really good with magic." Daylight stated.

"Of course she's good with magic." Fluttershy said, but starting to panic and sweating. "Twilight's great with magic. I guess I just don't want my little friends to be scared. Oh, oh, look how scared they are!"

The animals put the lie to that claim as they're all chittering happily. Winter Breeze flies next to her mother.

"Mom, they won't be in complete danger." Winter Breeze assures her when Twilight walks next to her.

"I promise, Fluttershy. Nothing bad will happen to them." Twilight adds.

"I know!" Fluttershy squeaked fearfully.

"It'll be okay, Fluttershy." Mario said gently as he rubbed a fore-hoof on Fluttershy's back soothingly. "Just remember that it's just your imagination and nothing bad will happen to them."

Fluttershy nodded with a squeaky smile. Twilight takes a couple steps toward the menagerie, she lights her horn and focuses her mind. Fluttershy then hunkers down and covers her face, shaking.

"Stop, stop!" Fluttershy pleads with panic. "They can't take it!"

"She hasn't even started though." Daylight told her.

This is shown as the entire group of animals was only enveloped in Twilight's magic at the startup. Twilight aims a concerned look back at Fluttershy before Mario and 3 foals gestured her to get down to work. One after another, she levitates the animals up several yards and get them moving in a circle, much to their audible delight. As she flicks her horn in a new direction and Fluttershy chews her hooves and stares popeyed, the animals are maneuvered until they are describing a deft figure-eight pattern.

"Whoa, that's impressive!" Comet said, impressed while his sister nods with an agreement.

"Twilight, that looks amazing!" Spike said, watching with a smile on his face.

Sweat has started to trickle down Twilight's face as a few sparks fall from her horn. At this point, she winds down, gently lowers the animals back to the grass and wipes her forehead.

"Phew!" Twilight said.

"Great job, my love." Mario said as he kissed her cheek.

Twilight just smiled as the animals gathered around her and cheer in their various ways.

"That's all for now, little ones." Twilight said. "Maybe we can practice again later, if Fluttershy says it's alright."

They hurried over to her and try to raise her spirits. Winter Breeze just sighs as Fluttershy was still timidly down on the ground.

"Probably won't be for a while, but great job, Mom." Daylight said.

"We knew you have skills, and we've noticed you've been getting progressively better over the last few months." Comet adds, making Twilight hugging her children with a warm smile.

"It's actually improved ever since we came to Ponyville, Twilight, especially your martial arts skills, Mario." Spike said. "Princess Celestia's going to love it."

"Thanks, Spike." Twilight said.

"Well, I don't really want to be a celebrity. I just don't want to attract too much attention all the time." Mario said as he looked away until Twilight pecked his cheek.

"I think you've grown a lot with your magic, sweetie." Twilight said as they shared a loving nuzzle, then turns to her kids. "But Comet? Daylight? You two have also grown a lot with your magic ever since you came to my life. And after that, you've learned a lot from Wild Heart of your heritage and Mario of martial arts. I'm so proud of you both."

Comet and Daylight then hugs their mother.

"Anyway, I have to be at my best when Princess Celestia arrives with the delegates from Saddle Arabia." Twilight said. "I can't believe she's trusting me with the entertainment."

"Well, you are a great organizer, sweetie." Mario replied as she giggled.

"It's also a hug honor." Daylight agrees. "Though, we should leave you two alone since you and Mario are planning something for the rest of the afternoon."

"Surprisingly, not this time. I'm spending the day with the both of you, Spike, and Mario for the rest of the afternoon since I've got the spell worked out." Twilight told her daughter. "How about we grab a bite at Sugarcube Corner? Spike?"

"I'm always down for some cupcakes." Spike replied.

Suddenly, a rainbow blur plows over Twilight, knocking her away from Mario, Spike, and the 2 foals. It was revealed to be Rainbow Dash as she stands over Twilight who was on her back surprised from the sudden entrance.

"Rainbow Dash, what's all the rush?" Comet asks when Storm Hawk flies next to him and Daylight.

"Sorry, but we've got trouble." Storm Hawk told them.

"And you guys got to come quick! It's an emergency!" Rainbow Dash adds.

Hearing that surprised them as they looked at each other for a brief moment blinking uncomprehendingly.

In Ponyville, a crowd was gathered around in front of the town hall and Rarity was seen knocked out against the wall while being hold by dark binds. A mysterious mare lets out a sinister smirk on her face with triumph.

"And you call yourself a bearer of Generosity? You're even pathetic than I thought." The mare taunts.

Applejack gallops up, just in time to get those dark binds out and catching her. Pinkie Pie arrives as well to get her home in order to patch her up from the fight. Twilight, Mario, Storm Hawk, Comet, and Daylight then enter the scene with confused looks.

"What's going on?" Twilight demanded.

"Who did this to Rarity?" Mario asked sternly.

"Well, well, well, it's been a long time...Mario Star." The mare said as she lifted her hood to reveal herself with a sinister smirk.

She has dark obsidian fur coat with bleached white mane and tail, and dark crimson eyes with red war paint on her eyes. She has an oni cutie mark.

"Harumi!" Mario growled.

"You know her?" Twilight asks, then looks at Harumi with anger.

"Yeah, she and Lloyd use to be close during our time at the Royal Palace with her adopted parents. However, after learning her agenda of using the oni masks, Harumi betrayed us and broke Lloyd's heart." Mario explains. "We were able to put up a fight against her and her group, but it doesn't stop her for bringing Lord Garmadon here."

"I'm surprised you're here in Ponyville after learning of your whereabouts thanks to Orochimaru." Harumi said. "Especially Zane, which made me wonder how he's been."

"You've got a lot of nerve showing up and terrorize my friends, especially after the last time we fought!" Mario said angrily.

"And you took down Rarity! I'm not letting you get away with that!?" Rainbow Dash shouts.

Rainbow Dash flies after Harumi, who unleashed her magic to bring the skeletal giant hand and grabs her, slamming her down to the ground. Rainbow Dash struggles to get herself out, but Harumi slowly walks to her.

"Now where exactly do your loyalties lie?" Harumi asks with a smirk. "Surely you're the bearer of Loyalty and made the wrong choice on choosing sides where it should've been Lord Garmadons."

Rainbow Dash snarls angrily, tried to get out and the skeletal hand made it much harder for her while Harumi just smirks in amusement.

"Enough!" Mario yelled which it got her attention. "Your fight is with me!"

"Oh, I'll fight you...right after I deal with the rest." Harumi told him as she then looks at Applejack. "Starting with her..."

Mario won't let her, about to use his magic with Twilight cuts him off by firing her beam at Harumi. Harumi was able to block it with the magical shield to stop her attack.

"Why are you doing this?" Twilight demands.

"She has nothing to do with this, leave Applejack out of it!" Mario added as Harumi turns to the two.

"After you and your friends defeated me and my group, we were forced to flee for the suffering loss and humiliation!" Harumi said with anger and hate. "We came back with three oni masks and use it against all of you to destroy you and the kingdom. We were victorious, but you came back and decided to strike, after learning what we can do. Yet somehow, you were able to outmatch us and destroyed those masks! Our group was no more after another suffering loss, and I swore revenge to you and your Elemental Masters! Orochimaru was kind enough to give me the information I need, and here we are...you and your so-called friends in Ponyville when all I see was you, the Master of Nature!"

Harumi even remembered those times at the kingdom, where she hatched her secret plan after forming a group in order to find the Oni masks without telling anypony. But soon as they found all three, she betrays Lloyd and broke his heart, she and her group invade the kingdom. The Elemental Masters were forced to hide to keep a low profile while formulate a plan to strike back. Few months passed, and the Elemental Masters were able to strike back by using every method to trap her and group, fighting them from both sides. They were having a bit of trouble because of the oni masks, but the Elemental Masters were able to destroy them and forced Harumi and her group to flee.

Lloyd was left heartbroken after the betrayal, but his friends were able to help him and give support.

"And you really think knocking Rarity or any of my friends would solve everything?! After everything you put Lloyd through?" Mario snarled angrily. "You betrayed us all and sided with Lord Garmadon! He even loved you!"

"Lloyd? Loves me? Ha! I was just using him to get the oni masks!" Harumi remarked. "And he even falls for my charms!"

"And yet, you're just manipulating him just for you and your group to get those masks?! Over for a revenge?!" Twilight yells, now angry.

"What can I say? I've had years of practice." Harumi said with a smirk, but glares. "Now, enough talk! I've got a score to settle with you, Mario!"

Mario then uses his magic to conjure auric hands and stood up on his hind legs while Harumi did the same as they ready their fighting stance.

(I Will Win-by Ron Wasserman)

Both Harumi and Mario charge at each other while Twilight and the ponies are watching with worry. Harumi and Mario both block and counter each other with the series of punches and kicks. Mario ducked down from Harumi's roundhouse kick, and he delivers a low sweep. Harumi recovers with a hoof-stand as she got back up and unleashed her dark magic to fire a magic blast, which Mario blocks it with his forelegs and deflect it away into the sky. Mario then charges after her again, leaps in midair and about to deliver a kick when she uses her magic to bind him.

However, he turns into sand which left her in dismay and Mario appeared in front of her, delivers a punch to the jaw. Harumi stumbles back and glances at him with a scowl.

"Okay, if that's how you want to play..." Harumi said, uses her magic to hide into the ground.

It left Mario narrow his eyes but calms down as he closes his eyes while using his senses to find her. His ears twitches and sensing Harumi came from behind as she's about to punch, which Mario blocks it and deliver a side kick. Harumi turns to a dark clone, leaving him in dismay as the real Harumi fires her dark magic blast at him, sending Mario down to the ground.

"An eye for an eye." Harumi taunts as Mario kips up.

"It's not over, Harumi!" Mario remarked when Harumi cloaks herself in dark aura.

"Oh, I think it is." Harumi said as she ran after him, but vanished and then punches him from his left.

Mario was forced to go on defense because Harumi attacks him from all over in between punches and kicks. He was able to keep up, but barely because she was able to hit him. Harumi finally leaps in the air with her dark aura channeled within her fist.

"You're finished!?" Harumi declares, punches to the ground and dark lightning merges as Mario uses his nature element to blend on the ground. "Think it'll save you? Just to use your element to hide?!"

The vines binds her, causing her to grunt and Mario merges out of the ground, delivering an uppercut right to the chin and then fires the nature sphere at her, sending her flying into the ground with a hard impact.

Mario regained his fighting stance and Harumi stood up with a heavy pant. She smirks, activating her Alicorn Amulet and fusing with her dark aura which made Twilight worried. Mario scowls while watching her using dark aura around her.

"Don't think I'm over yet...Because this...is where you'll lose." Harumi said, surrounds herself with dark aura and her eyes began to glow in dark crimson.

She then infused dark lightning in her right arm, fires the dark bolt which Mario was able to dodge. Harumi is now even more quick, deliver a fast punch at the sternum, the stomach, and a jaw, leaving Mario stumbled. She then got behind him and deliver a shock with dark lightning, making Mario scream in pain.

"MARIO/UNCLE MARIO!?" Twilight, Applejack, and Apple Shine gasped.

Harumi then kicks him right at the lower spine, knocking him down to the ground.

(Music Ends)

Harumi laughs with her fight, then uses her magic to send Mario to the Everfree Forest.

"Now, with him out of the way, time to deal with you...Twilight Sparkle!" Harumi said with a sinister smirk, looking at Twilight. "With the Master of Nature defeated and about to die by the timberwolves, I'll deal with you since you're in Lord Garmadon's way!"

"I won't let you get away with this, Harumi!" Twilight said angrily. "After what you did to Mario, I'll be sure to win!"

"You really think so? You don't have enough experience to fight against me, not even Mario could fight on his own." Harumi retorted, slowly walking to her. "Because this fight will be to easy for me, and I'll be sure to get rid of you and your friends. That way, Lord Garmadon will rule Equestria!"

It made her friends gasp and Twilight just stands firm, but just as Harumi was about to deliver dark magic, the time stops her and warps her inside of the time zone to travel. The twins revealed themselves at Ponyville which caught their attention.

Both Acronix and Krux have dark red fur with black mane and tail, and hazel eyes. They both have the kanji mark of 'Time'. They're wearing red, gray, and black suit of armor that consists of red and gray metal plating with gold outlining around their body and has the symbol of Time in the middle. Kruxs left sleeve and plating are gray while Acronixs right sleeve and plating are gray also.

"Thank Celestia we made it just in time." Acronix said.

"Who are you?" Twilight asks.

"Questions will come later, but we need to find Mario." Krux told her. "Come with us."

Twilight was about to asks but doesn't have time as she follows the Time twins to the Everfree Forest. Comet and Daylight follows them while their friends are watching with worry.

Out near the edges of the Everfree Forest, Twilight and her foals are following the Time Twins to look for Mario. She remembered of her coltfriend getting beaten by Harumi after the fight and suddenly felt herself wanting to cry. She knows that he's still out there and she had no idea if he's okay. She made his war hammer appears as she held them.

"Mom, you need to keep it together." Daylight told her mother. "I'm sure Mario is alright."

"And if we're right, Zecora is helping Chase and waiting for us." Comet adds.

Twilight smiled at the two, until it flipped over and her eyes enlarged as tears pours out of her eyes. She then hugged the war hammer to her chest.

"MARIO STAR, YOU BETTER BE OKAY OR I'M GONNA DESTROY YOU MYSELF!" Twilight wailed as she let herself cry for a bit, leaving her kids hugging her and the Time twins looked at her with concern.

Once she was able to recompose herself, she, her foals, and the Time twins headed towards Zecora's home as some tribal music was heard in the background. She lightly knocked on the door and Zecora opened it, gave Twilight a warm smile.

"What they say about love is true, two soul mates will always find one another, they sure do." Zecora replied.

Zecora stepped aside to show that Mario was already inside sitting at a table with a cup of herbal tea. Twilight smiled widely.

"Sweetie!" Twilight squealed with glee as she hugged him tightly.

"Ow! Owowowow!" Mario yelped. "Twilight, please! Oooo, I'm stiff! I'm stiff!"

Twilight then pulled away as Comet, Daylight, and the Time Twins just chuckled.

"Sorry." Twilight said sheepishly as she then handed Mario his war hammer, which he smiled and planed it on his side.

"As I was making one of my special herbal pies, Mario came in my front yard as an unexpected surprise." Zecora said.

"Yeah, I was pretty banged up after fighting against Harumi." Mario said wearily. "But Zecora prepared me a special herbal bath and gave her some ointments to help me feel better. My muscles are just stiff though..."

"Your aches should go away soon, and you'll have back what makes you zoom." Zecora said.

Mario nodded as he held her close, but he turned to the Time Twins.

"Acronix, Krux, I know it's been a while, but just wish it was a normal circumstance." Mario said seriously. "But something tells me this isn't a formally."

Acronix and Krux then starts explained about Harumi and an artifact she stole during their investigation in Canterlot. Mario was furious and was ready to leave to deal with Harumi after learning about the Alicorn Amulet while Twilight, Zecora, Comet, and Daylight were stunned. Zecora ushered him to stay put since he's still in recovery, which he conceded.

"I can't believe it, she actually had the Alicorn Amulet and uses it to beat Mario!" Twilight exclaims. "It's no wonder!"

"Yes, but the downside is, the more she uses the Amulet..." Krux said.

"...The more corruption spreading her." Acronix adds.

"...And she'll be more destructive than Lord Garmadon." The Time Twins finished in unison.

"Your tale of woe upsets me so." Zecora said as she sat mantra style by the table, sipping her tea. "No wonder you're dour. It's an abuse of power!"

"That sounds like Harumi we know." Mario said when the knocking was heard.

Zecora opens the door and it revealed Trixie which it got Twilight, Mario, and the foals surprised.

"Trixie? What are you doing here?" Twilight asks.

"I'd be asking you the same thing." Trixie remarked. "But after hearing of Harumi using the Alicorn Amulet and beating Mario, I guess I came at a bad time."

"What do you mean? Why are you here?" Mario asks.

Trixie then starts explaining what happened, which apparently, she's been laughed and ostracized by everypony during her travels around in Equestria. Mario, Twilight, and the foals felt terrible for her, but what got them stunned was that Trixie accidentally stumbled onto the Maternity Flower, and it got her pregnant to give birth to a foal known as Piotr from Russia. She then explains about the Russian colts background and how he died.

Mario, Twilight, Zecora, the two foals, and the Time Twins felt bad for Piotr after learning about him died of cancer. Trixie even then told them about her doing some odd jobs in order to earn some money, mostly working on a rock farm.

"Trixie, we're sorry your life has been difficult recently." Mario said calmly. "But I would tell that if you stop poking fun at others and bragging, you wouldn't give ponies a reason to laugh at you."

Trixie felt those words sting a bit, knows that Mario was right since she learned that the hard way.

"However, after what you told us, you decided to come back to Ponyville for a clean slate." Mario continued.

"Yes, but I...I just don't know how to take care of him. I mean...I don't have siblings or kids of my own." Trixie told him.

"True, but you know Piotr needs help and support. And you are the one who has to do it because of the flower you told us." Twilight points out. "But we'll help you after everything is situated and take care of Harumi while we're at it."

Trixie nods with an understanding.

"Can we see him?" Twilight asks as Trixie responds with a nod.

"You can come in now." Trixie called him as Piotr came inside of the hut.

Piotr had a light brilliant cobalt blue fur coat with the tricolor of white, blue, and red mane and tail, and oxford blue eyes.

Twilight slowly walks to Piotr, which made him hide behind Trixie's legs which it caught her attention.

"It's okay, they're not going to hurt you." Trixie assures him with a soft-spoken tone. "There's no reason to be scared. I promise, they're here to help."

"It's okay, we're not going to hurt you." Twilight said gently. "Please come out."

Piotr can tell she's being genuine, came out when Twilight and the others gave a smile.

"Hi." Twilight greets.

"Hi." Piotr replied with a Russian accent.

"My name is Twilight Sparkle." Twilight said, then gestured to her children. "This is my son, Comet Stardust, and my daughter, Daylight Savings. Like you, they're humans from Earth and their former names were Elijah and Lisa. He's from New York and she's from Virginia."

"Oh, they're Americans." Piotr said.

"Half American and half Italian." Twilight corrects him.

"I'm Mario Star, I'm the Master of Nature. But after the fight, you probably get the ideas of what happen." Mario said.

"And I'm Krux, and this is Acronix. We are the Master of Time." Krux adds as Piotr nods.

"I am Zecora, I'm the one who makes a healing brew." Zecora said.

"But in the meantime, we will deal with Harumi while you stay here. She was about to return to Ponyville." Acronix said to them.

"But, I don't want Princess-"

"She'll understand why we're doing this. Master Wu sent us to find the one who stole the Alicorn Amulet and destroy it." Krux cuts her off. "For now, you will remain here until the task is done."

Twilight was about to protest, but Mario grabs her and shakes his head. Even though, the twins were sent by Master Wu in order to find the culprit who stole the Alicorn Amulet, which happens to be Harumi, and take her down while destroy the artifact. She sighs in defeat, then turned to the twins.

"Alright, I'll trust you on this." Twilight said. "But, be careful."

Acronix and Krux nods with a reply as they then leave the hut to get to Ponyville.

And speaking of which, the rest of the Mane 7, Kronk, and the foals haven't seen Twilight, Comet, Daylight, Mario, or the Time Twins ever since Harumi defeated the Master of Nature. But they knew they're at the Everfree Forest with Zecora. They then turned and quickly notice a time warp was opened and Harumi came out with a very annoyed look on her face, which she somehow able to get out of the warp.

"Well, that's just rather rude." Harumi grumbled. "But whoever did it must pay for that! And I'll hunt Twilight Sparkle along with the rest of the bearers of Harmony and end them!"

"You will not!" The voice of Krux said as he and his twin were in front of her.

"We won't let you cause destruction in Ponyville!" Acronix adds as they glared at her.

"Time twins, I should've known." Harumi groans. "Didn't think you'd show up!"

"That's because you're the one who stole the Alicorn Amulet at Canterlot and how you've defeated Mario." Acronix told her. "We won't let you continue any further!"

"Oh? And who's going to stop me? You?" Harumi taunts with a smirk.

"No, both of us!" Krux remarked sternly.

"And we'll send you to Tartarus, where you belong!" Acronix adds.

(Combat-by Ron Wasserman)

Harumi then use her dark magic, combining with the Alicorn Amulet to enhance herself while using dark lightning as she charges after the twins. Both Acronix and Krux uses Time element to slow her down, then fires a chronokinetic blast at her, sending her flying to the ground. They then use the element, and rush after her as they deliver a flurry of punches and kicks which made her try to block. She barely blocks, but both of the Time twins were too fast because of the time element granted them temporal speed as they punched her, knocking her down to the ground.

Much to her frustration, enhancing herself while the Time twins use the time element once more. She lets out a war cry and rush after them, but the Time twins unleashed a chronokinetic blast to deliver great shockwave of pure force. Harumi was then crashed into the ground for the third time, tried to get up but couldn't because of the hard impact. The Time twins slowly walk to her as Acronix uses his magic, making Harumi remove the Alicorn Amulet from her neck and Krux then levitates the amulet, destroys it.

(Music Ends)

Harumi widens her eyes in shock, letting out a frustrated yell after the defeat of the Time Twins, who looks at her with a harden glare.

"You will never bring harm to anypony...again." Krux said, then uses magic to open the portal that will lead her to Tartarus. "You'll be spent in Tartarus for all of eternity."

Harumi lets out a growl of anger, but being dragged by Acronix's magic and she's inside of Tartarus as they close the portal.

"I'll get even...I'll get even...You'll be sorry...You'll see..." Harumi snarls angrily when the dark portal opens and Lord Garmadon approaches which it got her attention.

"Hmm, for somepony who took down the Master of Nature, I could make use for you. Revenge is bittersweet." Lord Garmadon said with a smirk. "What would you say if you join me to rule Equestria?"

Harumi doesn't think about it, only responds with a sinister smirk and accepting his offer.

While back at Ponyville, the Time Twins were able to inform them of Harumi's defeat. Mario, Twilight, Comet, Daylight, Trixie, and Piotr are now back, about to form a group hug when they notice a certain magician next to them.

"Why is she here?" Rainbow Dash asks with a frown. "Brag some more about the Ursa Major?"

"Rainbow, that's not it. It's something else." Twilight said, defending Trixie. "And apparently, she got caught by that flower a while ago...and she gave birth to a colt."

"WHAT?!" The Mane 5, the 5 foals, and Kronk exclaims.

"We'll explain everything once we head inside." Mario suggested.

And with that, they soon head to the Golden Oak Library in order for Twilight, Mario, and Trixie to explain what happen to the magician.

That's it for the 19th chapter.

Sorry, I have to do some changes in order to have Trixie reform while try to take care of the colt known as Piotr before Twilight leaves for Saddle Arabia. Also, they'll try to help, but she'll have to earn their trust on her own after the Ursa Minor incident. It won't be easy, but it's a shot.
