"No, no, no, no, no," Pinkie shook her head, unaware that the rest of her was shaking as well.
"I... I had to get the vial," Twilight tried to reason as she handed the bottle to Nalu.
"There are no words to thank you," Nalu murmured, but their victory felt like a major defeat. "But the fungi still got away with the berry."
"That's not true," Nori shook her head. "We switched the berries out."
Bibble babbled a little in agreement.
"Elina remembered the berries that revealed your true self," Nori explained. "It looks just like the immunity berry, only we faked the red stripe."
Bibble swam off and returned with the berry.
"We hid the real one in some seaweed," Nori said, handing it to Nalu. "We figured you might have a better place to put it."
"Then all really is saved!" Nalu exclaimed. "This is amazing!"
However, the happiness died down, and all stared at each other in silence (save for Rainbow Dash sneezing every three seconds).
They all knew why.
"Guys, I'll be fine," Twilight said, trying not to cry. "I'll just... you know... be o...okay..."
But she couldn't keep the tears from coming.
"I should've grabbed the vial," Elina said guiltily. "You're supposed to make it home."
"Pinkie, you gotta figure this out," Sunset said, turning to Pinkie.
However, Pinkie had been freaking out so much that her mind had turned blank.
"I... I can't think right now!" she sputtered out.
"Come on, Pinkamena Diane Pie," Sunset urged. "You know this movie; you have the talent for 'breaking the fourth wall' or whatever it is you're talking about. Either way, you gotta find a solution! Come on, think!"
Pinkie bit her lip a little and tried to focus...
"Wait!" she exclaimed, pulling something out of her hair. "Here!"
She shoved a berry under Twilight's nose.
"Are you sure?" Twilight asked, staring at it worryingly.
"Am I ever wrong?" Pinkie asked, noticing the stares she was getting. "I mean when it's about these movies!"
Twilight had to admit, she had a point...
"Well... here goes..." she said, taking a small bite.
For a moment, nothing happened.
"Please work, please work, please work..." Pinkie muttered to herself.
Rainbow Dash let out another sneeze fit.
That's when Twilight looked down and gasped, staring at the light encasing her.
Outside the light, everyone else watched with hope and awe...
Twilight burst upwards, feeling her tail split in two...
She exploded from the surface, looking down to see...
"Yes! Woo-hoo!" she cheered, swinging her legs in the air. She looked behind herself and saw that she didn't have fairy wings anymore, but that her pony wings had returned.
"Yay!" Bibble cheered.
"I knew it would work!" Pinkie exclaimed as the rest of the group appeared in the air, Nori and Nalu sitting on rocks.
Rainbow Dash sneezed again.
"I think I'm gonna need to leave soon..." she mumbled.
"Yeah, we have to go," Sunset said, pulling out her paintbrush. "See you soon?"
"Uh... sure," Elina said. "Will I see you again?"
"You bet!" Pinkie grinned.

"Well that was interesting," Applejack said as they left the movie.
"Tell me about it," Twilight agreed. "Remind me to never do rash decisions in trenches ever again."
"Rash decisions in what?"
All seven girls looked in horror to see Starlight staring at them quizzically.
"And what were you doing in a screen?" she added.
The Equestria Girls shared worried looks.
"...Mirage?" Rainbow Dash sneezed out.
