Ponyville was quite and peaceful. The dark of night splashed over the tiny houses and evaporated with the dim golden glow from the house lights. All the houses windows were dark and black. Yet one house was still lit inside. It was Twilight's castle.

Twilight was busy strolling through the long halls. She sighed sadly as she spied the picture of her friends hung on one of her walls. Her friends looked so happy in the picture. Now, half of her friends were terribly hurt, and could not be cured with any normal medicine. Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity, were the ones who were under special care in the castle of the two sisters, in Canterlot. Rainbow had splintered her wing, Pinkie Pie had broken her legs and arms, and Rarity's horn was bent and crooked . The rest, Twilight, Fluttershy and Applejack, were not badly injured but had a few bruises, cuts, and scratches, here and there.

Suddenly Twilight felt a wave of anger rush threw her. She screamed and her horn blasted a ginormous beam of magic onto the ceiling. She calmed down and her horn began to spark like a broken mechanism.

"I can't do it! I.. I..... Can't do it. I just can't!" she screamed as she flopped on the floor, beginning to cry.

"Twilight? Is that you?" came a voice.

Twilight spun round and saw Fluttershy standing behind her.

"Oh! It's only you Fluttershy! Goodness! You startled me." she said, a little bit jumpy.

Fluttershy smiled shyly.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to." she said sweetly. She looked up at the picture of the six best friends. She frowned. She glanced at Twilight and shed a tear.

"This was my fault," she said, ashamed. " I shouldn't have trusted Nightfire! I should've trusted you. She was evil."

Twilight looked down at the floor and frowned.

"It's true that you shouldn't have trusted Nightfire, but you shouldn't blame yourself. You meant well." Twilight said. She continued on down the hall while Fluttershy followed. It had been ten days, and Rainbow, Pinkie, and Rarity, still hadn't healed. It felt like yesterday, when the mane six first met Nightfire.

Nightfire is a unicorn with dark purple mane and blue coat.  She had come to Ponyville a few weeks ago, and the mane six were skeptical about her. Except for Fluttershy. She had trusted Nightfire and become friends with her. Turns out, Nightfire was actually using Fluttershy to get access to the library in Twilight's castle. She stole information from there and used it against the mane six. She was going to open a vortex to another dimension and take the mane six with her to change their ultimate mind map and make them her slaves in that dimension. In the process, she hurt the three ponies and escaped before she could have been sent to prison. Twilight has been trying to search for her, while her friends were healing. No such luck.

Fluttershy walked next to her purple friend and stopped when she heard a sound. She pricked her ears up and scanned the hall.

"Twilight! Watch out!" she called. But it happened to fast. A ginormous cage fell on top of Twilight, trapping her.

"Help! What's going on?" Twilight screamed, trying to pry herself out of the bars.
Suddenly, Fluttershy noticed a dark pony-shaped shadow on top of the cage. She was levitating and seemed to be holding the cage with her horn.

"Nightfire?" Fluttershy whispered. The levitating pony floated on the ground and walked in the light. The unicorn was Nightfire! The unicorn smirked.

"Hey Flutters! Missed me, hon?!"
