The Re-Rise of Starswirl

Starswirl is appearing to have tremendous difficulty convincing certain ponies in Equestria that he really is the returning Starswirl, with everyone convinced that he is long dead and that he's just a very convincing wannabe that just so happens to be REALLY good at magic. Worse off, he had to deal with Starswirl Look-alikes that are fan creations that are scorned at him for being the "Canon Starswirl" and are giving him the most scorn. So, he turns to Twilight and friends to prove his authenticity. However, things take the turn for the worse, as all this is actually the result of a disgruntled future jester named Chad Puns, a young donkey, who was picked on by Starswirl fans for being a terrorable comedian and left him to seek out the comfort of a book Starswirl was sure was gone for good, called The Tartarus Journal, a sentient, trash-talking evil book of Tartaric origin with the ability to summon the worse of evil monsters from Equestia's past, as it corrupted Chad into 'Punzor', and allowed the journal to begin exacting revenge onto Starswirl and all of Starswirl's followers for his eternal humiliation by selling out Stygian to a familiar face: a dark priest from Hollow Shades named Bishop Dipper, an old enemy of Starswirl who has started embracing darkness since he was wronged by him long ago and aims to undo all of which he did during the Great Fear War intending to summon Taraxippuses, the ponies' previous image of the Boogeyman before Pitch, through a religion that worships Prince Woeus, the Alicorn god of fear and hate, knowing that his darkness would make him a Taraxippus far stronger than any other Pony of Shadows beforehand as his previous battle was not easy, and should he become so, it will not be realistically possible to stop him, and with the help of the Tartarus Journal and Chad, he may finally get that chance, not knowing that they'll be tapping into something that will do more than release it's own race, the Taraxippus, or ghosts that scare ponies by choosing a host and using their magic to fuel their powers, as they used to be almost released by Pitch, who was aligned with the Pony of Shadows during the Great Fear War, as he attempted to spread fear through the Taraxippus, and with this threat on the horizon and located within a haunted hippodrome once encountered by one of Starswirl's old students Zodiac Cloud when he fought another Taraxippus, the Pillars, Mane 6 and Lodgers must stop these threats from using this power to unleash untold fear upon Equestria, and might find the key to defeating them from a poor soul named Doldrumsta Blue, the previous Pony of Shadows before Stygian with a lot to lose.

The Last Stand
This song was heard as Woeus has his life flash before his eyes.
 * The Hallow Shades turned into a pure land of misery, as Doldrumsta Blue was seen looking at all this crying.
 * Suddenly, Professor Buzzord arrived with Hatty helping him, as the Students and other Factily arrived shortly.....
 * Doldrumsta looked at the new arrivels with heavy tears.....
 * Doldrumsta: "(Cries)..... It's not fair?! EVERYTHING ALWAYS GOES WRONG?! BECAUSE OF ME?! ALWAYS BECAUSE OF ME?! I, I, I JUST WANNA BE LEFT ALONE?! (Cries phathicly, as the students and the factily, but a determined Professor Buzzord, began to shed tears, even the tough ones like Koningin and Barktrot, though they tried resisting)...... PLEASE DON'T HATE ME FOR THIS-"
 * Professor Buzzord: "MISS, PONY?! (Doldrumsta shivered in respondse to the professor's strong demand)...... I, am going to give, the most gentlest, but still firmist advice I can offer to you...."
 * Doldrumsta: "Wha, wha, I, I, I don't under-"
 * Professor Buzzord: "GROW, UP?!"
 * Doldrumsta: "...... Huh?"
 * Buzzord: "You act, as if you're the only one in all of this planet who is suffering! But I believe Yakhalla has a story for you. And spoiler alert, it ends with "And then I accepted an evil spirit into my body and banished my parents into a dark dimention"! And before you start whining about how you were betrayed by those you mistook as friends, AGAIN, and we get it already, take a moment to consider that I GREW UP IN A TOWN THAT CAME TO HATE ME FOR MY OWN DESIRES?! Entropy was betrayed by his own village. Spiracle had brother issues! Koningin doesn't even want to share her issues, but I suspect they involve her father in some fastion since she was very sensitive about her faverite spear, which, and I qoute, was her father's! Barktrot became a dark tree witch for missing out on being choosen as a healer! Spoonful lives in the shadow of a less honest rival! And these don't even come close to the tragity that is the life of a defect member of a hostile alien race turned cyborg, that is Electross!"
 * Electross: "Hey come on, do you really had to remind me?"
 * Buzzord: "I AM ONLY MAKING A POINT?!"
 * Barktrot: "THEN MAYBE IT'S ABOUT TIME TO GET TO IT?!"
 * Buzzord: "..... Perhaps your bullies were not ENTIRELY inaccreate about you, Miss Blue. You think your the most worthy of endless sympathy just because you had a terrorable childhood and that you had the misfortune to be alive in one of the worse war periods since the one that took away the Alicorn Gods, yet, here you are, just, crying your eyes out as evil is winning! Even when anichent founders of Equestria are brought back to give due aide, this mess doesn't look good for the SIDE of good! And while this is happening, and your crying attatude only creates a waterfall of bitter, bitter tears, the only victory afford to you is that you got to sulk and be alone once more! You were a crybaby. To the last wimper. (Doldrumsta feels ashamed)....... Of fear and love...... I do not fear the rising of a dark religen taking a stranglehold onto all lands. But I do fear for what I had come to love: My assusiates, and the young students that have come to love what I try to do, will end up as miserable as you, living under a tyrant's wings.... Suffering no differently then how you did."
 * Doldrumsta started to get visions that showed that there was more to what happened in the prom then she knew, but no consistent answer....
 * Buzzord: "...... So please...... Miss Blue....... Cease holding back..... Do not let Woeus turn you into a plaything."
 * Doldrumsta finally gotten a vision that showed her everything: Her Tormentors were actselly planning an initionation party for Doldrumsta to actselly accept her, to finally make her feel like she belonged. But then, the one who made them do the prank, a younger paladin Dipper, mindwarped them into making the awful prank to turn Doldrumsta into the latest Pony of Shadows, as the music began to play, as now, Doldrumsta's standerd sadness, turned into sad anger! Doldrumsta's eyes turned into teary shadows as Doldrumsta began re-embracing her Pony of Shadows, as Buzzord and the group began to step back.[[File:Day of Fate ~Spirit VS Spirit~ Lyric Video (Unmei No Hi English Cover) Team Four Star|thumb|center|335 px]]
 * Doldrumsta was a Pony of Shadows once more, and flew up torwords the ruined land.....
 * Gallus: "..... Okay, dude...... THIS BETTER NOT BITE US IN THE ASS?!"
 * PoS Dipper continued to overwealm the heroes, even with the Founders' help!
 * ???: "DIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER?!"
 * PoS Dipper looked to see the epicly landing PoS Blue!
 * The Heroes looked discouraged at this, as does Polaris, the Stars and the remaining townsfolk!
 * PoS Dipper: "..... (Laughs wickedly!) Great Lord Woeus FINALLY?! And here I thought I couldn't get neither you or your phathic brother to return back to Woeus' service! Now help me congure these blasfomers to the Lord's name, at long last!"
 * PoS Blue: "..... I understand everything now...... It was YOU?!"
 * PoS Dipper: "Uhhhh- (PoS Blue got up to PoS Dipper quickly) GREAT WOEUS?!"
 * PoS Blue: "..... The truth behind why they humiliated me..... IT, WAS YOUR DOING?! YOU WERE A PALADIN FOR THE WOEUS CHURCH?! You corrupted those poor ponies into being what they did, SO I CAN BE A PAWN TO YOU?!"
 * PoS Dipper became surprised!
 * Stygian: "..... Wait..... The prank at the prom?! That, was your doing?!"
 * PoS Dipper: "Duh, uh, now, now please, it, it was under the Archbishop's orders, I was going to assend to Bishop status, he was the one who- (PoS Blue shoved her head into PoS Dipper) GAAAAAAAAAAAAH?! (PoS Blue yanged Bishop Dipper out as the Pony of Shadows disappeated)"
 * Bishop Dipper got tossed and fell flat onto his face as he lost his Bishop hat.
 * PoS Blue: "Careful, Dipshit. Your true phathicness is showing. (Stomps onto the Bishop as she held him into place, as Dipper was in GREAT pain!)"
 * Bishop Dipper: "Ugh, ugh, mi'lady, your rage, it's, it's understandable! But please, as I said, I was just, following orders- (Coughs blood!)"
 * PoS Blue: "Dipshit...... You don't get it...... I, HATE THIS?! Being made to live beyond what any normal pony should? Being enturnally sad? Being a monster?! I, hate it...... I, always, have......  But, right now...... At this moment...... The one thing, I hate more then my own existence..... Is you....."
 * Bishop Dipper: "(Wimpers), It, it was nothing personal, Miss Blue..... It, was all in the name of Woe-"
 * PoS Blue began pressing abit harder on Dipper as more blood escaped his mouth!
 * PoS Blue: "My would've been friends were right about me..... I was a crybaby..... I allowed my miserable life to control me. I ended up being so miserable, even my story makes people cry! My mind, couldn't handle what you did to me! I, can never come back from this. I can never get my life back..... I'm stuck like this, forever...... (Dipper began to cry as he became more afraid for his life) I'm not scared anymore, Dipper."
 * Bishop Dipper: "(Cries), Mi'lady, please. It was what the Archbishop wanted- (PoS Blue pressed hard enough that Dipper screamed in agony, as the heroes winced, flinched and cringed at Dipper's suffering!)"
 * PoS Blue: "Because crying is not going to slove anything."
 * Bishop Dipper screamed louder as the pressing continued!
 * Bishop Dipper: "STAAAAAAAAAAARSWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL?! HELP, ME?!"
 * Stygian: "SISTER?! DOLDRUMSTA?! STOP?! (Runs up to PoS Blue)! Wait?! (PoS Blue looked at Stygian)........ I know Dipper ruined your life, and, whatever his excuse, he was wrong for it.... But...... Taking away his, won't bring back yours..... If anything...... It'll only leave you, with blood on your hooves...... So please...... Let him go...."
 * PoS Blue, relucently, raised her hoof away from the greatly wounded Dipper, as he wheezes phathicly.....
 * Stygian: "..... You did the right thing, Blue..... Everything's going to be okay."
 * ???: "This, is not, MY INTENDED DESIGN?!"
 * The Shadow Ponies and the Taraxippuses began to fearfully cower as a darken soul came from the void of Woeus' realm, Prince Woeus himself as abit of a Sombra-Shadow form.
 * Woeus: "The ponies of shadows were suppose to be MY BEACONS OF ABSOLUTE SERVITUDE?! How, DARE YOU BETRAY THIS?! My creations, are suppose, TO OBEY ME?!"
 * PoS Blue: "...... Well not anymore...... Because you, will no longer exist?!"
 * Woeus growled angerly as he charged!
 * PoS Blue dodged with a reverse flip as Woeus missed!
 * Woeus roared and chased after PoS Blue!
 * Clover: "NOW?! (Clover and group activated the flames of friendship via hugging as her cloak became active and trapped Woeus in a heart-shaped entrappment, as PoS Blue stopped)...."
 * Woeus: "WHAT?! UGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH?! YOU THINK THIS'LL STOP ME?!  I'LL ESCAPE EVENTUALLY?!"
 * PoS Blue: "..... It's only to hold you still....."
 * Woeus: "What?!"
 * PoS Blue: "I intend to make sure you no long exist, AND I WILL?! (Opened up her mouth as a small blackhole formed, as parts and pieces of Woeus started to break off)"
 * Woeus: "WHAT?! NO, NO, NOOOOOOOO?!"

Later.
 * Woeus gets completely swallowed by Pos Blue as she transform into Alicorn-Shaped Pony of Shadows. The process purifives and passifives the Taraxippuses and returns the shadow ponies to normal.......
 * Stygian: "...... Sister..... You....... You magicly devouered the soul of an Alicorn God, and became an Alicorn of Shadows! Your the new leader of the Taraxippus!"
 * Starswirl: "HOW, did you came across that spell?!"
 * PoS Blue: "It, came with the black magic knowledge."
 * Stygian: "But I must know.... How were you able to, congure your sadness?"
 * PoS Blue: "A strange, but wonderful new friend, basicly told me I needed to grow up.... And I did. (Professor Buzzord and the others arrived.). And there he is. (Goes to Buzzord and hugged him, to everyone surprise)...... Thank you..... For everything....."
 * Buzzord: "..... But alchourse, young lady..... I'm happy to help."
 * Punzor and The Tartarus Journel were seen trying to escape, but Rockhoof stood in their way!
 * Rockhoof: "..... Well looky what I found here."
 * Punzor: "Ohhhhh."
 * Tartarus Journel: "Crap."
 * Chad Puns was back to normal and tied up, along with the Tartarus Journel wrapped in chains. While Made Meadowbrook was seen attending to Dipper's wounds.
 * PoS Blue: ".... If there's anything I can do in return for giving Hollow Shades a new chance of a better life, name it."
 * Starswirl: ".... Alchourse..... I admit that, I have abit of an issue with Dopplegangers besmirching my name. We need help to capture them and taking them back to their proper realm."
 * PoS Blue: "It'll be done...."
 * Starswirl: "Oh, and..... There is also the matter of Dipper's son, and-"
 * PoS Blue: "Woeus' dimention is already being purifived..... So will the Taraxippus..... I'll include Little Dipper."
 * ???: "Mr. Starswirl?"
 * A less violent looking Taraxippus Little Dipper arrived.....
 * Little Dipper: "..... (Hugged Starswirl)..... I'm sorry...... For everything....."

Intro Theme (Castlevania Theme Song)

Chapter 1: Starswirl Returns and Consults Twilight
Millennia Ago... A millendia later. Nightmare Night Party at Twilight's castle. Elsewhere. Flashback into Starswirl's memory..... Flashback ends. Cutaway Present Later... Castle Party
 * (Chronicler): Of all the liars in the world, sometimes the worst are our own fears.. Rudyard Kipling, circa 19th-20th Century. Fear. It is appropriate for this time of year. But it's our biggest power and nightmare. The most terrifying monster than any monster ever known. None such embraced fear, like Pitch Black, the fabled Boogeyman. For eons, he was embittered by being obscured by nobody believing him. He went to other worlds to restore what he lost in the Dark Ages. One of the biggest victims, was Equestria. (He was seen causing fear, hate, and xenophobia to ponies and other races) Black magic of Equestria restored his name. But he was not the only Boogeyman in Equestrian history. The ones of initial history lie within the Woe Hippodrome. (Such was seen)
 * Bishop Pony: (Ponies were seen doing a religious ceremony with a familiar pony tied to a crucifix)... Hmph.
 * Saint Pony:... I sensed a lot of darkness inside him, Bishop Dipper.
 * Bishop Dipper: As did I. It's all over his face. Betrayal. Jealousy. Abandon.... Hate. Of all the ponies whose purity is so low... The one called Stygian... Volunteers to do the ritual. Who would've guessed that the one to arrive for such a job would be the brother of the previous Pony of Shadows herself?
 * Stygian: I ONLY WANTED SOMETHING ELSE!!! I DIDN'T THINK THERE WAS A FILTHY RITUAL TO A FILTHY FEAR GOD!!!
 * Saint Pony: BLASPHEMY!!!
 * Bishop Dipper: No, no, it's all in the religion. Woeus thrives in fear and hatred. Stygian doesn't understand. But he will. Stygian, you should be thankful. Fear is the only superpower in Equestria now, and the end of the Fear War will not change that. Races are at an uproar. There's nothing else for you.
 * Stygian: THIS IS NOT FOR ME, BISHOP, THIS IS FOR YOU!!! Starswirl told me all about you.
 * Bishop Dipper: Oh, you still listen to Starswirl, even if he turned on you. I warned him about his own pride and arrogance making him nothing but trouble, and you had to be the one to learn the hard way. You want to prove him wrong? This is the only way. To undo the victory at the end of the Fear War, and become the succession of the Pony of Shadows.
 * Stygian:... No. Absolutely NOT!! You're intending to make me JUST LIKE MY SISTER?!? NO!!! LET, ME, GO!!! (The ponies did an Old Ponish chant that changed him in black magic fire and turned him into the Pony of Shadows as everything turned black and the intro theme plays)
 * The School of Friendship was seen Nightmare Nightesed.
 * The Inter-racial students were seen dressed as the historic figures, Sandbar as Clover the Clever, Gallus as Grover, Yona as Yksler, Smolder as Knuckerbocker, Sliverstream as Ahura the Hippogriff, Ocellus as Mirage the Changeling, Shore as Queen Wavedancer, The Clones as the Pillers of Equestria, Gaster and his brothers as Chrysalis, Throx and Desteny, Quartz as Magmaticus, and Skyceria as her sister Prominade.
 * The entire group were seen walking down the hallway.
 * Suddenly, Segrego, Yakotaur, Wicked Dark Blacken Heart, Winger, and Finally Neighsay and his dope henchmen came from various doors and looked menacing!
 * Smolder: ".... I got this. (Grabs a baseball bat and ball and hits the ball with it, which knocks out all present villains in a fell swoop!) Booyah!"
 * The defeated foes suddenly poofed and turned into video game points.
 * Gaster: "You good news, Buzzy, your gizmo works like a charm."
 * Buzzord's voice: "Ah ha, I knew upgrading my simulation training center and making it expand into the entire school for cases like this "Nightmare Night" worked like a charm!"
 * Yakhalla's voice: "But did we REALLY needed to bring the Yakotaur back into this?"
 * Buzzord's voice: "Oh relax, Yakhalla, it's all in good fun! Now students, time to attend the party!"
 * The Group cheered and charged forth!
 * Many were seen enjoying the party, students, ponyvillains, Twilight and friends, even the Lougers and the Pillers were at full attendence.
 * Buzzord was seen as a blood-soaked mad sciencetist, Barktrot was in her "Barkrot" form, Yakhalla appeared as a norse viking, Spiracle took an unreformed appearence, Entropy appeared as Tyranny, Koningin kept serious and appeared as she does, Spoonful wrapped himself up as a mummy, and Electross look the appearence of General Grevious.
 * Applejack: "(Seen as Dorphey from the Wizard of Oz (To keep up with the theme of these halloween specials) as she saw the Interacial students) I just love your costumes. So, did Buzzord's little upgrade for the simulation center work?"
 * Gallus: "Unmistakenly. I almost mistook as the real deal."
 * Rainbow Dash: "(In a Washouts Uniform) Then this is gonna be a kick-ass Haunted School House."
 * Pinkie: "(As the Modern It Clown) This will be a Nightmare Night we'll never forget."
 * Twilight: "(Seen as Nightmare Moon) And the best part, the Pillars will be attending to see for themselves. Even Starswirl!..... Though I haven't seen him yet."
 * Flash Magnus: "Ahhhh, don't worry, Starswirl likes to be fastionably late, taking his sweet time. He was always more of a, take it easy kinda dude."
 * Rockhoof: "Aye, Starswirl was always abit of a sight-see-er. Kinda why he started moving about across Equestria."
 * Rarity: "(As a Ponyfived Maleficent) So I take it Starswirl's a traveler by heart."
 * Fluttershy: "(As her Hotdiggitydemon.Com Parody doppleganger) (Bad attempt at a deeper voice) Hey hey hey, stay out of my shed!"
 * Discord: "(Was seen as Mayhem)..... Fluttershy, darling, it's great you desided to give Nightmare Night another go, but please do not try to get into trying to actselly be scary, you'll end up getting carried away again."
 * Fluttershy: "Oh..... Sorry."
 * Spike: "(Dressed as a Roc) Still awesome you desided to show up, though. This promises to be the best Nightmare Night, ever."
 * Starlight suddenly showed up, looking psyco and in her pre-reformation appearence!
 * Starlight: "DEATH TO ALL CUTIE MARKS?! (Weilds a bloodied surgitcal knife!)"
 * The group gasped!
 * Starlight: "...... GOT YA?!"
 * Everyone laughed, though Fluttershy did a goat faint as Discord face-palmed.
 * Pinkie: "(Laughs)! You got us good, Starlight!"
 * Rainbow Dash: "Though with Fluttershy, ya may had egged it too hard."
 * Starlight: "..... Oops."
 * Discord: "Oh don't worry, she'll learn..... Eventually."
 * Starlight: "So, is Starswirl here yet?"
 * Mistmane: "As always, he takes his sweet time. He'll be here shortly."
 * Starswirl walked across ponyville, looking abit distressed, as ponyvillains either pay him no mind or complimenting his "costume", likely mistaking him as a normal pony in a costume.
 * Starswirl sighed....
 * A Starswirl Convention was held.
 * Starswirl arrived.....
 * Starswirl: "..... Incrediable. A convention in dedication to my likeness. Never thought this time would offer this."
 * ???: "Well, well, well.... If it isn't the "Canon" poser."
 * Starswirl: "I beg your par- (Looks to see a collection of Fanon Starswirls. Each of them, unthrilled to see the real Starswirl)..... What product of the multiverse is THIS!"
 * A Starswirl with Discord's body showed up.
 * Starswirl: "..... Discord?! Oh, of course it's just you pranking me. Kindly undo your tricks and-"
 * "Discord": "I'm not exactly the Discord of this reality, 'Canon' Starswirl. We are the Starswirls of the Fanonverse, a place where fan creations are made. And we were the post Season 7 Starswirls and the earliest depictions back when you were a no-show..... But then you have to become canon! I, am Starcord. The Fanon depiction of the now debunked fan throey that "you" were turned into Discord after getting corrupted, depending on lore."
 * Starswirl: "..... There's a, universe where fan imagination exists? Astonding! I might visit there one day and study it's unique nature-"
 * Starcord: "UP UP UP?! I don't think you get it, Canon Starswirl..... You, are not popular with us..... You, debunked us. And in no thanks to the Canon Clause of both legal and illegal law systems, we're not allowed to sue you for debunking us?! You have any idea how painful it is for fan ideals to be rendered un-canon by offictal canon? AND THE PAIN OF BEING UNCANON ENTURNALLY?! We stop being loved. People would call us out for being inaccreate! We're debunked?! And do you know what happens when a fanon creation gets debunked?!"
 * Starswirl: "....... I-"
 * Starcord: "We get thrown, into the Debunker Zone! The exile realm of debunked fanons?! A purgatory of unapologentic hell?! That's what you basicly exsiled us to, Starswirl of Canon?!"
 * Starswirl: "I, I, I never meant for such a thing, I, I didn't even KNOW about your universe-"
 * Starcord: "Well now we're gonna get our justice?! We are going to kick your bearded ass?!"
 * Starswirl teleported away as the Fanon Starswirls were confused.
 * Starcord: "..... DON'T JUST STAND THERE LIKE YOUR THE FANON STARSWIRL OF THOSE CHILD CELESTIA AND LUNA COMICS WHERE HE'S TREATED LIKE THE BUTT OF JOKES?!"
 * The Very Fanon Starswirl: "HEY?!"
 * Starcord: "GO OUT AND FIND HIM?! FIND, HIM?!"
 * The Fanon Starswirls go forth to seek Canon Starswirl out, of which was seen hidden well, and looking miserable.
 * Starswirl sighed depressed......
 * Starswirl: "I cannot believe, my very existence, had lead to the malevolent suffering of others in another existence."
 * Starswirl passed by a gang of hooligans dressed like horrror Icons, Freddy Kruger, Jason, Leatherface, Pinhead, Michal Myers, Old It Clown, Chucky, Xenomorph, Predator, Terminator, and a leader that dresses like the Scream Killer.
 * Hooligan Leader: "..... Follow me, boys."
 * The Gang of Hooligans ran up to Starswirl and surrounded him, which got his attention.....
 * Hooligan Leader: "TRICK OR TREAT, MOTHERF****R?!"
 * Starswirl: "..... I'm pretty sure a lot of you are too old for trick-or-treating."
 * Hooligan Leader: "NO, GRAMPS?! We're looking to mug ya of your insurence granted money, oldster!? NOW PAY UP, OR YER GONNA WISH YOU STAYED IN THE HOME?!"
 * Starswirl: "..... Do you, even realize who I am?"
 * Hooligan Leader: "Tch, duh, just some sad old has-been of a pony pretending to be some long dead old guy! What, are you wearing that get'up and the fake beard for your grandkids, oldster?! (The Hooligans laughed!)"
 * Starswirl: ".... I don't think I like your attatude, young man."
 * Hooligan Leader: "Oh yeah? Well I don't like it when people I'm mugging, don't pay up?! (Grabs Starswirl's beard) Just for that, I'm messing with that fake-ass beard of yers! (Pulls on it, but it won't move) URRRGH?! UGH?! UGGGGGHHH?! GOOD GREIF, OLDSTER, WHAT, DID YA SUPER-GLUE A FAKE BEARD ON YERSELF?! I'M PRETTY SURE THAT'S FUCKING DANGERIOUS?!"
 * Starswirl: I AM GOING TO TURN YOU INTO THE ACTUAL THINGS YOU MISCREANTS DRESSED UP AS IF YOU DO NOT UNHOOF ME THIS INSTANT!!!
 * Hooligan Leader: THAT'S JUST WHAT THE PHILOSOPHIA'S WITNESS SAID!!! (Starswirl turned them each into the icons they were dressed up as minus the powers)
 * Scream Killer:... EEEEEEKKK!!!
 * Starswirl: Did you think I was joking? I am the real Starswirl the Bearded. So, for the rest of the night and tomorrow, you will be stuck in those forms as punishment for daring to cross me.... (The Hooligan monsters laughed)
 * Freddy Krueger: Yeah, and I'm Freddy Krueger.
 * Tim Curry Pennywise: You ARE Freddy Krueger.
 * Freddy Krueger: You know what I mean, you dumb yot.
 * Starswirl: I speak the truth.
 * Xenomorph: SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEKKK!!! (He scared ponies away)...
 * Predator: ("Ugh, poor guy can't spea-... WAIT, WHAT THE F*** AM I SAYING?!?")
 * Chucky: Whatever. You can't fool us. Starswirl the Bearded has been dead for a millennia.
 * Starswirl:... HAS NOPONY EVER TOLD ANYPONY ELSE ABOUT MY TRAVELS?!
 * The Fanonverse Starswirls were seen debunking his existence with lies while a silhouetted figure watched.
 * Starswirl: For Gods' sakes, I performed a transformation spell that could hardly be purely mastered before me.
 * Jason: Well how do we know you did only because you're the old geezer's descendant?
 * Starswirl: OLD GEEZER?!? HOW DARE YOU?!?
 * Terminator: F*** you asshole, you're not fooling anypony. Stop trying to convince us your somepony else. You'll only desecrate his grave because of it.
 * Starswirl: WHA, HOW ARE YOU NOT GETTING THIS?! I TURNED YOU INTO MONSTERS!!! (Everypony was distraught by that and throw things at him in disapproval as he enters the School of Friendship)... My word. This is certainly not my day. Could this get worse?
 * Evil Laughter was heard as The Pony of Shadows appeared and laughed at him!
 * Starswirl: "AGGGGHAAAAAAA?! OH NO?! STYGIAN?! DID THAT DARKNESS CAME BACK AND TURN YOU INTO THE PONY OF SHADOWS AGAIN?! DON'T WORRY, YOUNG WARD?! I'LL SAVE YOU?! (Charged at the Pony of Shadows and tried to jump into him, but ended up disappating what turned out to be a hologram and ended up crashing into suits of armor) D'OH?!"
 * ???: "Oh confound it, what now?!"
 * Igmar, Kurtle, Pines, Aloe and Vertex arrived.
 * Pines: ".... OMG, It's Starswirl the Bearded!"
 * Igmar: "Keep in mind that it's Nightmare Night. It could just as easily be someone in a costume."
 * Starswirl looked sadden.
 * Starswirl: "Please, I know there is a suspitious air of doubt, but, believe me, I am Starswirl the Bearded! I ended up here because some hooligans tried to mug me, I cursed them into monster icons, they refused to believe me that I'm Starswirl, then the ponies began to boo me into here, AND NOW SYTGIAN HAS BEEN RE-CORRUPTED BACK INTO THE PONY OF SHADOWS WHEN I ENTERED THIS SCHOOL?! I TRIED TO HELP, BUT HE VANISHED UNDER A STRANGE MAGIC?!"
 * Kurtle: "..... Wow, the Professor's upgrade to the sumulation center worked like a charm."
 * Starswirl: "..... I, beg your pardon?"
 * Aloe: "Well, you see Mr. Starswirl..... Maybe it's best we just show you. Come follow us."
 * Starswirl: So, you're using this simulation center this "Professor Buzzord" made awhile back to turn the school into a 'haunted house' using simulated non-magic thaumagrams?
 * Aloe: They're called holograms, and yes. Stygian is okay.
 * Kurtle: So, um, why're you claiming to be Starswirl?
 * Starswirl:... You cannot be this blind.
 * Igmar: We can see fine, actually.
 * Starswirl:... What kind of school is Twilight running?
 * Pines: "Not the first time that question as been asked."
 * Starswirl: "..... Look, can I please see Twilight Sparkle, I'm.... Being very distressed lately."
 * Aloe: "But alcourse. If your troubled, then she can help. She's at the party in the castle."
 * The group lead Starswirl off.
 * Po was seen doing a bobbing for apples game, and used his roomy cheeks to store the entire apple selection into his mouth!
 * Mantis: "SERIOUSLY, DUDE?! I MAY'VE SAID THIS BEFORE ONCE, BUT YOU HAVE THE CHEEKS OF A CHIPMONK?!"
 * Applejack: "..... (To Big Mac) We're gonna need some fresh apples."
 * Gallus, Smolder, and Gaster were seen collecting candy from the party snack table to enjoy later.
 * Sandbar was seen dancing with Shore on a Nightmare Night dance floor.
 * Icky was seen drinking himself stupid with soda!
 * Gazelle was seen in a Natrisha Adams like attire as Duke Weaselton was in a Zoot Suit with his face painted green, imitating the Mask.
 * Lord Shen: "Sparkle, this is indeed a very charming party."
 * Twilight: "That means so much, Shen. I just wish Starswirl's here."
 * Lord Shen: "Oh worry not, you have been ensured that he has a history of arriving late, this is nothing out of the ordenary for him."
 * ???: F*** F*** F*** S*** F*** GODSDAMN F*** SONOVA S*** F*** C*** AND THEIR F*****G TITS, F***!!!! (Starswirl and his accompanying group came in covered in apples and junk)
 * Aloe: GREAT GAIA, THOSE GUYS ARE MERCILESS!!!
 * Igmar: Kinda unfriendly for a land all about friendship.
 * Kurtle was seen enjoying an apple, then got confused.
 * Kurtle: "You mean it's not costomary to throw free food at people?"
 * Pine: "(Pulls an apple off of a Quill and enjoys abit of it as well) I kinda wish it was though."
 * Rockhoof: "..... Okay Starswirl, what bit of trouble did ya ended up going through this time to make ponies mad at you?"
 * Flash Magnus: "Did ya ended up pulling another Meadowshire insodent where you criticised the village leader of her personal beliefs on magic."
 * Rarity: "Meadowshire?"
 * Mage Meadowbrook: "Don't ask, child. Complicated story."
 * Starswirl: "It's not another Meadowshire fiasco..... Though it's such as troubling as one."
 * Twilight: "Oh, Starswirl, what happened?"
 * Starswirl: "I'm afraid to say. A lot of you may be doubtful of me."
 * Shifu: "Starswirl, you are in the presence of those that seen the impossable. There will be no air of doubt with us."
 * Starswirl: "..... (Sighs)..... Well, it all started a month prior before I found myself in Flimflam's school, when I attended a Starswirl Convention."
 * Icky: "Let me guess, none of the fans bought your claim that you're the real deal."
 * Starswirl: "It's..... Something abit more outrageous, I'm afraid...... Lougers, you have done some interdimentional travels, correct?"
 * Spongebob: "Well purely with the AUU and only recently the Mewni dimension, but yeah."
 * Starswirl: "..... I know this will sound, ludicrist even with this knowledge, but...... A collection of radically different versons of me that came from a realm known as-"
 * Sandy: "(Concerned) The Fanonverse?!"
 * Icky: "AWWWWWWWWW CRAP, NO?! NOT THE FANONVERSE AGAIN?!"
 * Starswirl: "So you knew?"
 * Lord Shen: "Ugh, WORSE than knowing of it. We have the misfortune of dealing with it's natives migrating into our UUniverses to sometimes give complaints about canon."
 * Squidward: "Let me guess, these fanon Starswirls are mad at you for debunking them by your mere existence, are they?"
 * Starswirl: "Oh, I am so releived you're no strangers to this!"
 * Iago: "Trust us, we wish we are! The Fanonverse can have both the best, AND THE WORSE, of fandoms! And we had the misfortune of ending up visiting the bad part first! UGGGHHHH?! THE BAD MEMORIES STILL HAUNT ME?!"
 * Applejack: "Beg yer pardon, but, what's exactly the Fanonverse?"
 * Mantis: "Remember those portals to those other alternate MLP:FIM universes in Hayfield 64?"
 * Rarity: "Yes."
 * Crane: "Well, the ones that aren't memetastic or creepypasta material, of which is part of the Memeverse, the others are only extentions of the Fanonverse, which is basicly a universe where fan ideals end up. It's where fan thoeries, ships, uncanon stories, and alcourse non-SAF OCs end up."
 * Icky: "And trust me, all ya need to know that the Fanonverse is devided to SFW and NSFW zones, and if you EVER have ANY REASON TO GO THERE, PLEASE, GO TO THE SFW ZONES, ONLY?!"
 * Rarity: ".... Oh, trust me, we know too well of the Bronies, over-fasination of us too well, to have an idea why you mean."
 * Starswirl: "As I was saying.... These "Fanon" Starswirls are hounding me, because my very existence has caust them woe. They-"
 * Lord Shen: "Were sent to the Debunker Zone?"
 * Spike: "Debunker Zone?"
 * Icky: "Basicly the Fanonverse' equilent to The Epic Mickey Wastelands and the Pixel Wastelands. But crawling with debunked fan ideals. And trust me.... They're just as pissy about being there as the Fanon Starswirls are."
 * Starswirl: "I just don't understand why they are so against me. It's not like I intended their suffering."
 * Shifu: "Of course not. You didn't even know they existed until they made themselves known. It's just that, like the Pixel Wasteland, The Debunker Zone has it's own wasteland guardian, known as the Fanon Guardian. It hunts down debunked fanons, and takes them to live in it's realm."
 * Starswirl: "Then how did those Fanon Starswirls get out?"
 * Gazelle: "Well other then the obvious answer that they're powerful wizards, that is a good question. Usually wasteland guardians do well to keep their occupents from leaving."
 * Barktrot: "Perhaps it's possable, they had help."
 * Applejack: "Don't you fret, Mr. The Bearded, we'll local those Fanon Starswirls and get answers."
 * Starswirl: "Well right now, them coming after me is not a sole problem. I think their presence and ponies having doubt I'm actselly Starswirl are connected."
 * Rarity: "Tecnecally, people had mistaken you as a Starswirl fan and/or Twilight's grandfather a lot of times."
 * Starswirl: "But when I started traveling, I ended that delusion and ponies came to realise that I am Starswirl. But this new confusion could be correlated by these other mes. And why? Aren't they based on a noble hero like me?"
 * Shifu: "I'm afraid that the Fanon Starswirls have fallen victim to Debunked Bitterness. An illness that plagues Debunked Fanons once they end up in the Debunker Zone. They become bitter, depressed, angry, and spiteful. It is obvious these fanon dopplegangers have lost sight of who they were based on."
 * Icky: "Yep. Those Fanon Yous are made that you basicly filled a once empty niche, Starswirlly. And you can say that you never meant to harm them all ya want, but by mere existing, you rendered them the latest additions to an unpleasent purgatory. And they, aren't going to pardon that in the slightist."
 * Starswirl becomes depress.
 * Rockhoof: "..... (Gets stern).... Do not despear, Starswirl. We will seek out and punish those dopplegangers for besmirching your good name!"
 * Somnambula: "Indeed."
 * Mage Meadowbrook: "If those broken souls have a problem with you, they have a problem with us."
 * Flash Magnus: "No interdimensional Starswirls are gonna mess with OUR TRUE Starswirl!"
 * Mistmane: "Tragic as those troubled souls' reasonings are, their suffering cannot be eased through revenge, for it will only further taint their hearts."
 * Starswirl: ".... It will not be easy. One of them is a Draconequus like Discord."
 * Icky: "AW CRAP?! THE FANON OF DISCORD BEING A CORRUPTED YOU IS INVOLVED IN THIS?!"
 * Discord: "Ohhhh boy. I thought I had a reason to be espeically concerned about this. I was afraid that silly old brony rumor would come back to haunt me.... And you by extension, beardo."
 * Twilight: "Don't worry, Starswirl. We were able to handle our own Discord and other Draconequui just fine. This'll be no different."
 * Lord Shen: "But we do need to inform Celestia about this. Any leaked in interdimensional immigrants should become a Hayfield 64 concern. For they would have the ability to capture those Fanon Starswirls and help us. Because we are talking about alternate yous, Starswirl. They are all likely as powerful as you, if not even more with the Discord one in mind."
 * Starswirl: "I haven't exactly kept track of them. I mostly AVOIDED them, because I was severely out-numbered, and likely at risk of being easily countered before I could even do anything."
 * Sandy: "Well this time, you got a posse yerself now."
 * Starswirl: "...... Thank you, Sparkle. You have come to comfert and aide me in my time of need."
 * Twilight: "..... Your welcome, Starswirl. That means so much to me."
 * Pines: "There, is still the matter with the Ponies being mad at Starswirl for some reason."
 * Starswirl: "Oh, I also had a bit of trouble from some hooligans and turned them into the iconic otherworlder beasts and villains for their disrespect."
 * Silence.....
 * Gazelle: ".... I kinda think you made that problem with them worse."
 * Starswirl: "Yes, I realized this. Not helping that they also failed to reckindise me as the real Starswirl. This would make getting to Celestia difficult."
 * Spongebob: "Well luckly for you. (Brings out the Atlantis Talisment) The Van, is here to save the day." (They convert it into the van with a familiar sound)... Really? You know Transformers stuff isn't allowed in the show, right?
 * Icky: Seemed appropriate for this universe since both they and MLP are Hasbro properties, so take me away, officer.
 * Max Cat: Sooo... We're going to shoot them away?
 * Skipper: NO, WHAT ARE YOU, STUPID?! We're going to negotiate with the microphone.
 * Max Cat: Well I guess that works better.
 * Skipper:... Just let us handle this, Moon Cat.
 * Phil: Skipper, I thought we worked out ALL the crap you missed in the movies. Max's non-lunar origins, Marlene's bleached fur incident, your 'Dublin Ireland' visit, THE CORRECT SPELLING FOR 'NUKULAR'!!!!
 * Skipper: YOU'VE ALREADY EMBARRASSED US ENOUGH WITH THAT, FUR PANTS!!!
 * Icky: "Can we JUST go to Celestia already!"
 * The Group entered the van and proceed to fly off to Canterlot!

Chapter 2: A Troubled Rookie Jester and a Tartaric Book/The Dark Bishop of Hollow Shades
Meanwhile, in Canterlot. Outside Canterlot Ponyville The Episode Resumed Hollow Shades Church Lounge
 * A Jester Audition Event was seen.
 * Celestia, Luna, and a sad Punsy Mcglee were seen....
 * Punsy: "(Sniffles), Celestia, why are you planning to replace me?"
 * Celestia: "Punsy, it is nothing personal to you. It's just, you are being retired for saying a, very unpleasent joke, and a new jester will have to be accepted."
 * Punsy: "But Celestia, I served you well! I always gave killer one-liners!"
 * Luna: "Well the Harpy Ambassitor didn't seem to THINK SO?! NOR ANY OTHER RACIAL AMBASSITOR?! WHAT IS IT WITH YOU AND MAKING RACE JOKES?!"
 * Punsy proceeded to cry phaticly!
 * An older veteran Jester came up.
 * Veteran Jester: ".... Please mind my grandson, Princesses. He's taking the early retirement hard."
 * Celestia: "We know, Funso Mcglee, but it can't be help. Punsy can't some offending people."
 * Funso: "I understand. (To Punsy) Don't worry, boy. I can always get you a job in Topsy Turvy Town. They're, alittle more forgiving to rough comedy."
 * Punsy: "(Wimpers).... It's just not fair!"
 * Celestia: Look, I'm terribly sorry, but with racial tension going on recently, we can't have jokes like yours starting wars.
 * ???: They're right ya know, McGlee. (A donkey in a blue jester hood came in)... Ya went out of sytile in a time of racial conjustusness like Looney Tunes cartoons with racial depictions.
 * Funso:... Chad Puns. What're you doing here? You of all people don't get to say things like that even for the honor of the princess.
 * Chad Puns: Oh what, I'm not allowed to say my two cents or something? It's only my opinion.
 * Funso: No, it's everypony's opinion.
 * Chad Puns: Well then that's yer problem: Hypocrisy. You claim to really cherish the magic of friendship and yet you some folks, like me, are treated with stink-eyes like we're from a culture of pariahs. At this point, I think the kettle needs to file a restraining order on the pot.
 * Funso: You're not a good jester, Chad.
 * Chad Puns: Says the retired veteren jester.
 * Funso: Says EVERYPONY!!!!
 * Celestia: ENOUGH!!... Chad Puns... I do not seem to recall inviting you.
 * Chad Puns: Story of my life. Did you know I wasn't even invited to MY OWN BIRTHYDAY PARTY ONCE?! I never get invited to anything. That being said, I was actselly here to do something relitively productive. Did ya know something about a wave of fan dipictions of Starswirl the Bearded coming out of a place called the "Fanonverse" and making the real deal look like a fake?
 * Celestia: WHAT?! That's not possible. The guardian is a stone cold one.
 * Chad Puns: Well what did ya expect? They're fan depictions of THE Starswirl the Bearded. You're talking about clones of the same guy that mastered Inter-dimentional and/or time travel in some compasity in MLP canon. He's basicly a super pony love child of Dumberdore and Gandolf. But I'm willing the bet the real deal will tell the Lougers and your teacher's pet Sparkle and her friends about it and they'll tell you, then afterwords, it's a hot-skip-and-a-jump until Hayfield 64 is involved.
 * Luna: Wait, how did you know about this before them?
 * Chad Puns: Uhhhhh... Jester's intuition?
 * Punsy:... You let them out, didn't you?
 * Funso: GRANDSON!!! I AM ABHORRED AT YOU!!! CHAD MAY BE A DISGRACE, BUT HE IS NOT THAT KIND OF DISGRACE!!! HOW DARE YOU ACCUSE HIM OF SUCH?!?
 * Chad Puns: Yeah, kid. Shame on you.
 * Funso: "That wasn't to say you're permitted to egg him on like that! It wasn't like he accused someone of better standing then YOU! I only scolded him for your sake out of principal alone!"
 * Chad Puns: "Knew that was too good to be true. I mean, yeesh, can't a guy of my current standing deside to do something nice for once without being accused of something? I mean, come on, take note that I'm a donkey. We're not much capable of magic. Heck, I'm not even like those super speical Uni-horn Donkeys that can do magic! The only thing incredable about me is that.... (Gets abit depressed).... I'm pretty much a big loser."
 * Luna: "(Gets abit suspitious).... All the same though, it is strange that you have knew about this before us."
 * Chad Puns: "... Okay, ya got me. Let's just say, I know some friends in shady places that can learn about things faster then even the Lougers can. It wasn't exactly hard for them to notice a gang of disgruntled fan creations of a famous pony wizard making the guy they're based on look like a lier. Now that I got my fickle thanks of they day, I'm out of here. (Leaves)....."
 * Punsy: "..... I still say he had something to do with this?!"
 * Celestia: "Now now, Punsy, in all fairness, he did point out that he was incapable of magic..... This being said..... I do agree it is odd he knew about this so soon, even with his claims of his "Shady Friends"...."
 * Luna: ".... I think we may need to keep our eyes on Chad Puns for the time being. Right now, we should probuly expect the Lougers arrival right about now."
 * Punsy: "So, does that mean the Audition's canceled?"
 * Luna: "More like put on hold due to impourent matters, so don't get your hopes up, Punsy."
 * Punsy: "D'OH?!"
 * Funso: "Aw don't sweat it, Punsy. Consider this as a chance to revaluate your comedy rotine. Trust me, I don't want my grandson to end up like Chad Puns, and I'm sure you don't as well."
 * Chad Puns:... Well that could've gone better.
 * ???: (Monstrox voice but Bombinomicon tone) Ohhohoho, I doubt that, ass-ass. (Laughs hysterically as Chad pulls out a book with the Tartarus gate pattern on the cover and a yellow eye in the middle) Get it? Because it means both donkey AND butt? (Laughs) It's funny.
 * Chad Puns: Not if you explain it, TJ.
 * Book: Ahh, choke on a burrito of d***s.
 * Chad Puns: "Ugh, just my luck I get insulted by a sentient book from greek hell."
 * Book: "Hey, the correctamondo term, is Tartarus. Ergo, that makes me, the Tartarus Journel!"
 * Chad Puns: "Hey no need to lecture me on the correct name to discripe what's clearly still a standerd underworld."
 * Tartarus Journel: "Hey try to remember who it was that helped you bust those Fanon Starswirls out?"
 * Chad Puns: "That crazy vulture guy who created a inter-dimentional traveling outhouse that surprisingly works, for having an easy password to enter his house and for being an unintentionally helpful idiot who likely doesn't even know about me using it?"
 * Tartarus Journel: ".... I see what you did there. Well remember who was the one who GOT that idea in your head to begin with."
 * Chad Puns: "Yeah yeah, I know, that was you."
 * Tartarus Journel: "Exactly! I also helped informed you that the stupid bird has an easy to remember password and helped guide you in the Fanonverse and made sure you stayed out of the NSFW zone. Trust me. That place, is worse then Tartarus. (Shudders) Even I'm shuddering at the thought."
 * Chad Puns: "I get it, you were why I was able to get those Starswirls out. But ya have to realise that the heroes are already onto them."
 * Tartarus Journel: "That's the plan, genius. Those Fanon Starswirls are just distractions for the REAL plan. Going after Stygian, and taking him to the very guy respondsable for the Pony of Shadows."
 * Chad Puns: "..... The one where it's an expie of Nightmare Moon, or-"
 * Tartarus Journel: "Yes, I meant the one where the Pony of Shadows is actselly a dude and not related to Nightmare Moon at all!"
 * Chad Puns: "Well surely you of all, uh, sentient Tartarus-y things, should know that this guy was likely from many years ago, and-"
 * Tartarus Journel: "Well ordenarly, yes. But you would be amazed what magic can allow mortals to do. Trust me. HE'S still around. I'll explain later. Right now: We have a reclusive wimp to meet up."
 * Chad Puns: "Well there is a matter of finding the guy and-"
 * Tartarus Journel: "Oh, we don't need to come to HIM! He's coming to us. Sparkle WAS having a party after all."
 * Chad Puns: ".... Ahhh, I see what you mean."
 * Stygian was seen arriving to Ponyville via coach by a Saddle Arabian pony.
 * Saddle Arabian pony: "Welcome to Ponyville, sir. A quint little village where crazy things happen in unexplanable ways."
 * Stygian: "Oh. Thank you."
 * Saddle Arabian pony: "You have Trav'el-Babylon's pleasure. That'd be 8 Equestrian bits."
 * Stygian: "(Gives 18 of them) Keep the change. I'm feeling generious today."
 * Trav'el-Babylon: "Oh goodness me! That was more then I was expecting! And you clearly don't look like the rich type!"
 * Stygian: "Oh, a lot of that was my earnings from my book. I made a story about my past. It's, difficult to explain."
 * Trav'el-Babylon: "Hold the phone. (Brings out the book from A Rockhoof and A Hard Place).... You mean you made this book?"
 * Stygian: "Well, more like, I made the book where that one is a copy of. But otherwise, yes."
 * Trav'el-Babylon: "By the Alicorns, how did I not realised I was taking a famous auther!"
 * Stygian: "Uh, please calm down about it, I don't wish to be treated no differently then any other pony just because I wrote a successful book."
 * Trav'el-Babylon: "Ahhhh, I see, You're trying to be incognito! You have my vow of secretcy on this, my friend."
 * Stygian gets off and heads torwords the Castle as Trav'el-Babylon trots off.
 * Stygian: "It'll be great to see old and new friends again when I arrive at the party. I wonder if Starswirl's there as well. Ya know, if he's not being fastionably late as usual." (He came in to see that very few were there)... What? I was told the Pillars and Lodgers were going to be here.
 * Cozy Glow: Hello Mister Stygian. Oh, they left. Mister the Bearded had an emergency.
 * Stygian: "An emergeny? What was that?"
 * Gallus: "Something about a bunch of Starswirls from another universe screwing up his name as the real Starswirl because they got sent to a purgatory or something."
 * Stygian: "ANOTHER UNIVERSE?!"
 * Skyceria: "They said it was called, "The Fanonverse", where it's basicly a universe where the ideals of fans go."
 * Stygian: "Awww gees, and I just got here! How long ago did they left?"
 * Smolder: "Abit of a while ago, before you showed up."
 * Stygian: "And why are you guys here?"
 * Gaster: "Well, it's likely not serious enough anyway, just a bunch of vengeful d***s ruining a famous heros' legacy, and that it's also Pillar Business, which Sparkle always said is too serious for our involvement anyway, so.... Here we are."
 * Koningin: "And we're here to make sure the students behave themselves."
 * Yakhalla: "And that of Professor Buzzord as well."
 * Professor Buzzord: "HEY!"
 * Professor Spoonful: "Oh don't act like you wouldn't end up redusing this castle into ruin if we left you alone with the children. You're litterally the same twit that ends up having inventions blow up spectatularly in his face, does reckless things, AND HAVING A STUPIDLY EASY TO REMEMBER PASSWORD FOR A SECURITY DEFENCE?!"
 * Professor Buzzord: "But it's a password for all of my security systems! Even the one in my house!"
 * Silverstream looked to have an empifinmy about this......
 * Silverstream: "..... Professor Buzzord..... Do you, remember that exspearimental Inter-Dimentional Traveling Outhouse you made?"
 * Buzzord: "Oh? OH! Oh of course I remember! See, sometime after the Deadpool debacle, I went to test that old thing myself, and IT WORKED?! I ended up in a universe ruled by cute puppies and kittens and gumdrops and ice cream and-"
 * Everyone looked concerningly at Buzzord......
 * Buzzord: "..... What?"
 * Stygian: "..... You, have managed to have a working inter-dimentional gate, inside your home, defended by only a security system, that can be turned off, WITH AN EASY TO REMEMBER PASSWORD?!"
 * Barktrot: "It's litterally just the first 10 numbers close to eachother as well. That makes it this mess worse."
 * Buzzord: "Well I don't see what the problem here is!"
 * Spoonful: "..... YOU, IDIOT?! DO YOU REALISED THAT MEANS YOUR CREATION COULD BE WHY THOSE FANON STARSWIRLS ARE HERE?!"
 * Buzzord: "That's impossible! My device can only be able to physically go into other dimentions and back, it's not one of those "Stargate" phemoninons where there can be others like it."
 * Yakhalla: "Then that means, those other Starswirls had a rescuer. And likely someone with a vendetta against Starswirl given the circumstances."
 * Buzzord realised this....
 * Buzzord: ".... Ohhhhhhh.... Does that mean my inter-dimentional outhouse is going to be consbinsated for this?"
 * Barktrot: "Well, given that it's respondsable to why dopplegangers, who are embittered at a famous hero's mere existence, are ruining his life, I HARDLY SEE WHY IT WOULD NOT BE THE CASE?! THAT THING IS AT RISK OF BEING EASILY ABUSED LIKE JUST NOW?!"
 * Buzzord: "Everyone, please, I purely meant for my inter-dimentional traveler for good! To allow us to travel into other dimentions and realities! To learn from them!"
 * Electross: "Well bad news. Like the time machine, an interdimentional traveling device ALWAYS runs the risk of being more trouble then it's worth! The Zoni are JUST as strict about traveling to alternate realities as they are to time travel!"
 * Buzzord: "But the Lougers do so all the time!"
 * Barktrot: "Of which is limited purely to the AUU, and recently the Mewni dimension! And even they discourage traveling to other existences, because they bring RISKS! It's like your What-If Scenariotron, you would not always like what you would see."
 * Buzzord: "But do I really HAVE to lose one of my babies? It was finally an invention that works!"
 * Barktrot: Yes. And one that works AGAINST YOU!! This kind of device is too dangerous for anyone to possess.
 * Buzzord: You sound like those sappy melty-brained ethicists of science that say technology and people do not mesh. EVERYTHING is too dangerous for anyone to possess. I do not appreciate being told what not to create.
 * Cozy: Why? Because they're too right for you to blow off of your life's work?
 * Vertex:... Kind of a mean thing to say, Cozy.
 * Cozy: Wait, being truthful is mean? Not my fault the truth hurts.
 * Buzzord:... Thanks, guys. Thanks a lot. (Walks away sadly)
 * Cozy: STOP TRYING TO MAKE US FEEL SORRY FOR YOU, IT'S NOT WORKING!!!
 * Igmar:... Cozy, is this because he recently got you in detention for breaking curfew?
 * Cozy: Maybe. I was trying to return something to Twilight and that's not a vewy friendly way to repay me.
 * Kurtle:... You know, you raise too many questions, kid.
 * Cozy: I get that too much. But it wasn't because of that. If it was, would you hold it against me?
 * Stygian:...... You are the weirdest kid I've ever met.
 * Aloe: This is Cozy Glow. Valedictorian of the School of Friendship. Kid displays good knowledge, has good friendship skills, and likes to tell stories about Vibe Idol. She said she wanted to dress like her this Nightmare Night until the costume was sold out.
 * Stygian:... Interesting. But what's more interesting is her cutie mark. It's supposed to represent intelligence and good leadership. Usually ponies don't get this cutie mark at her age. Must be some kind of prodigy.
 * Cozy: Mister Stygian, I believe you were worried about Mister the Bearded?
 * Stygian: Oh, that's right. Where was he headed?
 * Aloe: Canterlot.
 * Stygian: "Alchourse. I'll head there right away! (Trots off)."
 * Igmar: "..... I should, probuly go check on Buzzord. Make sure he doesn't do anything rash. I'll, see to it he'll become more, accepting, of losing that device. (Walks off)."
 * Kurtle: "I'll go too. He'll need my feel-good cookies and nice cold milk for this one. (Walks off to join Igmar)."
 * Gaster: ".... Wow. Cozy, that, was brutal."
 * Cozy: "(Sighs), I know, I know, that was too far. But Sparkle does said he needs to be kept from doing risky things all the time."
 * Shore: "Well yes, but there can be gentler ways to do so. We were told time and time again that Buzzord was very sensitive about being scrutinise. Kludgetown always gave him trouble for his well-meaningness rotinely."
 * Cozy: "To be fair guys, it's not hard to see WHY that's the case."
 * Skyceria: "Accreate as it was, it's still mean. And be as it may that Kludgetown isn't exactly in the best shape ever, Buzzord is obviously here to look for those who would show compassion to him. Now, I agree that he does need to accept criticisum better, but, he's obviously not yet ready for criticisum THAT harsh!"
 * Cozy: "I get it, I get it, I screwed up. Isn't that why I'm in a friendship school? To interact with people better?"
 * Gallus: ".... Tch, yeah, I think I can see why the Crusaders desided to help your Shirly Temple butt out abit better. It's like your from a life where you never had serious friends."
 * Cozy looked personally effected by that!
 * Cozy: "Hey! Be careful what you say about me, Griffin! I'm related to the school's superintendent!"
 * Gallus: "..... Yikes..... I, take it what I just said was true then?"
 * Cozy: "..... Ugh..... Fine, you got me! I'm..... Actselly abit terrorable at making friends."
 * Smolder: "And it shows when you made the Nutty Professor feel bad about himself."
 * Cozy: "Hey, the other teachers were doing it too!"
 * Sandbar: And all because you got detention doing something friendly?
 * Cozy: Hey, it's not exactly friendly what he did. But again, it wasn't because of that.
 * Gallus: It might as well could have been.
 * Shore: Exactly. That kind of retaliation isn't friendly either.
 * Cozy: What'd you expect? I'm just a filly.
 * Silverstream: Maybe you're not a filly at all.
 * Cozy: Maybe that's a good thing. Look, just leave me alone. (Flitters away)
 * Yona:... Sometimes she really scares me.
 * (Deadpool): (The episode stops) Hold the 500lb gorilla-shaped phone. Cozy's still in the school? What kind of discontinuity is this?
 * Scroopfan: "Okay, this time, this is an interuption I was PREPARED for. (Brings up a presitention simple enough for even Deadpool to understand). Well, you see Wilson, it's suppose to be like that the episodes before-hand of this Season 3's arc big finish, are untold stories of the season 8 episodes. Also, no thanks to the leaks and/or early lookly-loos, Season 8 went by too quickly, and it be too soon to let it's changes be felt and prematurely make Cozy Glow vanish from the face of the season, get what I mean?
 * Deadpool: "....... Ohhhhhhhhhh, I get ya. It's one of those, "What they don't tell ya" kinda stories. I get ya. And yeah, Season 8 DID went by too damn quick, did it? So, that means canonicly for SAF, the "School Raze" two parter, didn't happened yet?"
 * Scroopfan: "Why yes, Deadpool. Yes it means that."
 * Deadpool: ".... Though, I kinda figure that whatever plan Cozy's bitch sister was doing would happen relitively easy, all things considered."
 * Scroopfan: ".... Ugh, Deadpool, the previews of "To Tartarus and Back" would state that the talismens have been a bit neglected to the point that they don't work properly and need to be reactivated by those that the talismens would be best suited for and reignite their power."
 * Deadpool: "Oh, so, this is basicly where those kids would end basicly becoming an inter-racial main-six with those old relics, is that what your gunning for?"
 * Scroopfan: "Pretty much, yeah."
 * Deadpool: "..... Just thought I ask, because, this series is usually VERY cautious about being canonicly incorrect with canon stuff!"
 * Stygian: Hold on, Starswirl, I'm coming. (He left as a familiar pony with a broken horn and a paladin outfit was seen watching and left)
 * A very dark and lonely village was seen as ponies are seen living in utter misery.
 * The Familier pony trotted passed all of them and made it to a large creepy looking church.
 * The Pony charged right into the center of the recital area and reached another familier silluette.
 * Pony: "....... Sir...... We have found Stygian and the Pillers..... It was as warned by the seers. Stygian escaped his PoS."
 * ???: "Tch.... I'd be more disappointed if I hadn't anticipated it. Stygian was unwilling to accept the conversion after all. I am only surprised that it took this long for it to happen. All the same though..... I think it's time we prepare arrangements for their arrival.... For I, am ready for a reunion Starswirl will NEVER, forget."
 * Pony: Yes, Bishop Dipper.
 * Bishop Dipper: And you, Saint Polaris, will have to get the other Stars to prepare.
 * Saint Polaris: "Ugh, those misfits? The Stars aren't exactly as relieable as they were when they used to be more in line with Starswirl."
 * Bishop Dipper: "Perhaps, but they're better than nothing. Now make peace with this and make haste."
 * Saint Polaris: ".... (Sighs), Yes sir. (Walks off)."
 * Paladin #1: (Italian accent) Well, my word. We're going on another mission. Hope it's not another stupid Woeus' Witness crusade. Even if it fits with the theme of Nightmare Night, it never goes anywhere anyhow!
 * Paladin #2: (Mexican accent) Well, nopony ever expects the Stars of Bishop.
 * Paladin #3: (Canadian Accent) Ohh, if I had a bit for every time you said that, eh, it would've really helped with the salvation, don't ya know.
 * Paladin #4: Yeah, f*** bro, let's get this party started, huh?
 * Paladin #5: (Southern accent) Ahhh, we can take anything this world can dish out. I always got some crosses ta burn.
 * Paladin #6: (German accent) What do crosses have to do with this?
 * Paladin #5: A lot.
 * Paladin #7: (Scottish accent) Boys, and girl, this is clearly not some small crusade.
 * Polaris: Alioth is right. Bishop Dipper is sending us to deal with the cured Stygian.
 * Paladin 1: "Wait, NOW we're going after that guy, after like what, A year ago? A year ago since he was cured? I kinda figured the Bishop would've given up on him!"
 * Paladin 2: "Yeah man. Kinda thought the Bishop moved on, ya know?"
 * Paladin 3: "Yeah eh. It ain't healthy to be obcessed with a no longer relivent event, don't ya know."
 * Polaris: "Ugh, guys, this is SERIOUS?! The timing of the mission relivent to the day it happened matters NOT! The impourent thing, is we get to Stygian!"
 * Paladin 1: "I'm only asking why now when it's already been late into 2018 and not back in late 2017? It just makes everything confusing!"
 * Polaris: (His broken horn crackles) JUST LET IT GO!!! WE HAVE A JOB TO DO AND WE WILL SEE IT THROUGH!!
 * Alioth: Aye. He's not exactly as strong as Starswirl.
 * Paladin 3: What about his missing sister, eh?
 * Paladin 5: That's what I'm askin'. The poor sobber ain't been seen since she lost HER PoS.
 * Polaris: His sister is not important as of this moment.
 * Paladin 1: "Ya know, that doesn't make alot of sense. You say the big cryer ain't impourent, yet her PoS was the most powerful PoS in a business, while Sytgian ended up doing not too much both times pre and post Limbo! Why don't we just forget Stygian and-"
 * Polaris: "OH FOR WOEUS' SAKE, MIZOR?! (Zaps the Paladin Mizor painful) SHUT THE HELL UP?!"
 * Mizor: "(Coughs)..... Tecnecally, you mean "Shut the Tartarus Up", because- (Gets zapped again) DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH?!"
 * Polaris: "SPARE THE TECNECALLIES, YOU IDIOT?!"
 * Alioth: "Oh for crud's sake, Polaris, stop roasting that Rivera Villa twat, yer never gonna get anywhere with him!"
 * Polaris: "(Stops) Ugh..... Ya know, I tried to warn the Bishop that you has-beens aren't exactly the best choices ever, but he keeps insisting on it! I don't get why he wants the former speakers of Starswirls to represent Woeus?! You morons are the worse things to happen to me?!"
 * Paladin 3: "Well, we're not sure ourselves, eh. Ya think he might knew better then that, don't ya know."
 * Polaris: "I DIDN'T ASKED FOR YOUR OPINION, ALKAID?!"
 * Paladin 4: "Boss, calm down. Let's just, focus on the job at hoof and be done with this."
 * Polaris: "THANK YOU?! At least Phecda gets it!"
 * Phecda: "(Quietly) Don't patronise me, d***hole, I just want this bulls*** over with."
 * Alioth: "(Quietly) Phecda, please, mind that tongue, even when quiet as a muted cricket?!"
 * Polaris: "Now then, can we please get this over with?!"
 * Mizor: "(Wheezes in pain) Yeah, sure. Lead the way."
 * Polaris begrudgingly leads the group.

Chapter 3: Lore of the Pony of Shadows/Doldrumsta Blue
Canterlot 11 seconds later. Canterlot Throne Room Flashback... Present Flashback... Present
 * The Van arrives.
 * Sam: Well here we are back in lovely Canterlot.
 * Max: Personally I like the new decoration of the throne room.
 * Starswirl: I came up with it myself, actually.
 * Icky: Wait, it's been around since the movie. And Twilight went on that zeppelin cruise afterward which was before you were freed. And even then, the throwneroom was still PERFECTLY like it was in the actual debute episode! How does it make any logical sens-
 * Starswirl: It was during the Fear War. Also, the throwneroom can be magicly altered to suit the needs of the caster. Celestia obviously changed it to suit her sytile during my absince. And when I came back, where, she clearly reverted the throwneroom back to my sytile. Though as to when why it was like that in this "Movie" as suppose to "Show-Canon", well, I wager the colors for my theme just happened to fit the kind tone Tempest was aiming for in making the throwneroom for suitable for the Storm King.
 * Icky:... Way to fix the plothole you tore.
 * Starswirl: Anytime... Whatever that means.
 * Stygian's voice: "STARSWIRL!"
 * Stygian was seen trotting torwords the group!
 * Stygian: "Starswirl! I have some news for y- (An exploudion happened behind Stygian that caused him to fall up and hit the pavement) D'OW?! What the?!"
 * ???: "AND CUE THEME SONG?!"
 * The Stars of Bishop but Polaris and Phecda entered in an over-the-top Ginyu Force like fastion!
 * Silence......
 * Icky: "...... Anyone else getting DBZA Ginyu Force Flashbacks from this?"
 * Rockhoof: "Wait a minute..... Starswirl, aren't those guys your old "Stars of Starswirl" force that were basicly your overglorifived peace-keepers?"
 * Starswirl: "That's impossable! They are likely long gone at this point, and- (Starswirl gets a closer look and rekindises them)...... Alioth? Phecda? Dubhe? Merak? Megrez? Mizar? Alkaid even?"
 * Alkaid: "How's it going, Mr. Starswirl? Welcome back from Limbo, eh."
 * Polaris: "WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT BEING NICE TO STARSWIRL, YOU IDIOT?!"
 * Merak: "Hey give Alkaid a break, he's too polite for his own good, he's from the mooselands after all."
 * Pinkie: "They renamed it Vanhoover now."
 * Alkaid: "Oh hey, I guess the moose folk accepted the deal, eh?"
 * Polaris: "UGH?! YOU ARE RUINING WHAT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE A SHOCKING REVELATION TO STARSWIRL?!"
 * Phecda: "That kinda already died when the Theme Song happened."
 * Starswirl: "Wait a minute! Polaris, what're YOU doing alive as well?! And for that matter, why are my peace-keeper force wearing those Church of Woeus outfits!?"
 * Polaris: "..... (Quietly) Roll with it, roll with it, (Openly) You only have yourself to blame for that when you left to Limbo, Starswirl. For-"
 * Mizar: "He and Dipper basicly kidnapped us and forced us to play along with this silly stuff."
 * Polaris: "...... GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH, YOU IDIOT?! I WAS TRYING TO MAKE STARSWIRL THINK THAT YOU WILLINGLY CAME TO US CAUSE YOU FELT ABANDONED BY HIS SACRIVICE?!"
 * Phecda: "Yeah, see, that might work better, if he hadn't told us to keep the peace in Equestria FOR HIM in his absince! That's why he picked us to be the Stars of Starswirl to begin with, ya know, before your boss hi-jacked us because of his raging hate boner for Starswirl."
 * Polaris: "YOU ALL ARE RUINING WHAT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE A SHOCKING MOMENT?!"
 * Alkaid: "Well, if I'm being honest, it doesn't seem honest to lie about what we're actselly doing with the Bishop anyway, eh. Honesty's the best policy as it should, don't ya know?"
 * Applejack: "Exactly!"
 * Polaris: "..... SCREW IT, SCREW IT, WE'RE HERE TO TAKE STYGIAN BACK TO WHERE HE GOT HIS PONY OF SHADOWS TO BEGIN WITH?!"
 * Mizar: "Even though he kinda sucked at it."
 * Polaris: "WOULD YOU JUST- (Gets smacked in the face by Rockhoof's shovel) Duuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, (Faints)."
 * Megrez: "Ay, mommi! He's gonna feel THAT in the morning...."
 * Alioth: "Okay, enough with the horseplay, time to start taking this serious!"
 * The group entered combat positions.....
 * Icky: "...... Okay fellas, and lady, what's the gimmicks?"
 * Merak: "Gimmicks?"
 * Icky: "Actselly, I can already guess perfectly. (To Alioth) You're the grouchy scotlander second banana to (Points to Polaris), What I assume is our Tempest Character of the month, (To Phecda) You're, the girl member who feels like she's ignored by a group of moronic eccentrics."
 * Phecda: "(Quietly) Finally, someone notices."
 * Icky: "(To Dubhe) You're the southern steriotype, (To Merak) You're a cynic, (To Megrez) You're the crazy guy, (To Mizar) You're the loudmouth punching bag to the afforementioned Tempest Character, and trust me, I can tell from exspearience myself, (To Alkaid) And you're the too polite for his own good dumbass that makes people question why he's even with the bad guys to begin with."
 * Alkaid: "Actselly, I don't even know myself, to be honest."
 * Phecda: "Okay, did you just psycoanalise us?!"
 * Icky: "Look, it's nothing personal, it's just, we dealt with misfit minions so much before, it gotten to the point that we can reckindise their traits almost stupidly quick. Villains have a SEVERE problem with being original now-a-days. And as far as I can tell, this Bishop Dips*** guy sounds pretty by the numbers."
 * Polaris came through quickly!
 * Polaris: "HEY?! YOU'RE LUCKY HE WASN'T HERE TO HAVE HEARD THAT?! HE HATES THAT NICKNAME?!"
 * Icky: "Duly noted, cause now I know how to trigger his ass."
 * Polaris: "(Scaredfully) T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-Trust me..... Ya don't wanna do that...... Ever!"
 * Icky: "Well your own fault telling me he doesn't LIKE that word, genius."
 * Mizar: "Actselly Polaris, that is actselly your own faul- (Gets painfully zapped) AGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH?!"
 * Polaris: "OKAY, SERIOUSLY?! CAN WE JUST KIDNAP STYGIAN BACK TO OUR VILLAGE ALREADY!?"
 * Gazelle gave a "are you serious" glare as she pulled out the Uniter Blade.
 * Polaris: "For if you refuse, then we shall be the worse nightmare, you shall ever-"
 * Polaris and all the male members were sent flying out of Canterlot as Gazelle stood where they were as they screamed comedicly!
 * Phecda was seen having wisely backed off, but was next to Stygian....
 * Phecda: ".... (To Stygian) Yeah, we obviously lost here, so, we'll let ya off the hook.... (Seductively) Cutie. And FYI.... I think you're kinda cute for a wimp. (Rubs Stygian's face with her tail) Later, Styg. Oh, and I liked your book. (Teleports away)."
 * Stygian: "...... What...... Just happened?"
 * Starswirl looked more distressed then ever......
 * Starswirl: "..... It's bad enough that inter-dimentional Starswirls are ruining my good name...... NOW THIS?!"
 * Rarity: "Mr. Starswirl, you mind informing us on WHAT IN CELESTIA'S FAKE BEARD JUST HAPPENED?!"
 * Starswirl:... (Sighs) I thought I'd never have to explain the full story about Stygian's corruption.
 * Stygian: It's already explained in my book.
 * Starswirl:... Well I'm pretty sure not too many of us got to read that book!
 * Stygian: "Oh. Sorry. Didn't mean to break the druma like that totally random intro your Stars pulled. Or now, HIS Stars."
 * Starswirl: (Sighs).... Just meet me in the throne room.
 * Starswirl: Those were old acquaintances of mine long during the Fear War. The Stars of Starswirl. And the one with the broken horn? He's an unfortunate enemy of mine. His name is Saint Polaris Crux. The top paladin for the Church of Woeus, and the best assistant to it's leader, Bishop Big Dipper.
 * Tigress: Church of Woeus?
 * Icky: "Yeesh, how over the top basic evil-sounding naming conventional can ya get?"
 * Starswirl: It's darker then you think, bird. It's an unfortunate religion in what actually remains inhabited of Hollow Shades. It inspires progression through pain, fear, and loss, all under the eyes of another rogue Alicorn God. Prince Woeus, the Alicorn god of fear, suffering, hatred, xenophobia, and black magic.
 * Shrek: "Well, that sounds like he must be VERY popular at parties then."
 * Donkey: By that, he means the oppisite.
 * Iago: ".... I kinda have to question on WHY the Alicorn Gods have such a dark looking guy for a world of cute colored equines!"
 * Starswirl: That's always been the common mistake with outsiders. You always assume that it's always rainbows and sunshine with Equestria just because we have adorable physiques.
 * Gazelle: "By all means, we don't mean to make such an assumtion, it's just.... That's a surprisingly dark religen for a world like Equestria."
 * Starswirl: That much I'll agree to. And a sad on, as well. (Shows his repaired journel and opens it up as the story is explained through drawn depiction) I defeated the church's previous leaders, Father Pherkad and Archbishop Sidious, but during the Fear War... Dipper became resentful towards me. His son Little Dipper blamed his father for everything and for blaming me, his idol, for it all. He deconstructed himself into darkness, and I had no choice but to banish him to the dark realm of Woeus.... It didn't make him happy. He said he wanted to cure him, but I failed to convince him there was nothing that could be done. His son was already gone. He swore revenge and tricked Stygian into taking the ritual that turned him into the Pony of Shadows. (Depiction ends)...... And that's how we truly ended up in limbo.
 * Starlight:... (Gets stern) So Stygian wasn't the only mistake you made with your pride and arrogance.
 * Starswirl: Unfortunately no.
 * Starlight: And you ousted Stygian, KNOWING there was a threat out there that could corrupt him?
 * Starswirl: I never considered much back then. The Fear Wars were just too taxing to the mind.
 * Starlight: Well unfortunately, since he and his church are still alive in some unexplainable reason, time is no longer an excuse.
 * Spike: Take it easy, Starlight. He may have a point, even IF casting off his corrupted son and therefore making the same mistake of blindness with Stygian was clearly a terrible idea.
 * Flash Magnus: The Fear Wars have clouded judgment on even us. Why else didn't we think about the context of Stygian's actions before banishing him?
 * Starlight: How do I know that he wasn't losing his edge after the Fear Wars made him long serve his purpose?
 * Rockhoof: You were blessed of being born in a time where the Fear Wars is but a distint though ugly memory! You can't judge our actions from a millennia ago if you cannot understand them.
 * Pang Bing: He's correct. I made the same mistake in my past even if such cruel things have been a millennia outdated.
 * Starlight: That's different! Starswirl may still have learned hardly anything because, unlike you, he never had a millennia to heal. You only failed to have learned anything because you were under a bad influence. But him? If he did live from then to now, he would've made up for what he did wrong, a LONG time ago. I was willing to let him off the hook after repenting with Stygian... But this?! The fact that he casted off a crazed bishop's innocent self-corrupted child without thinking of a better way and instead arrogantly made excuses, then did the same again with Stygian? What's to say his clouded judgment from back then isn't gone?
 * Twilight: Starlight!
 * Somnambula: Am I to assume there's a reason you're choosing to take this incident personally, Miss Glimmer?
 * Starlight: "BECAUSE I SAW ABIT OF MYSELF IN STYGIAN?!"
 * Mantis: "...... How? You tried to resersect a form of communisum for butt tattoos, then commited chronoterrorisum, while he basicly pulled a dude Nightmare Moon."
 * Starlight: "HEAR ME OUT, OKAY?! Yeah, I get it, how we acted out was different, but here's how we're the same! Epsiecally now with this Bishop Dips*** in mind! We BOTH did bad things and came under bad influences, BECAUSE WE ENDED UP LETTING OUR IDOLS DOWN?!"
 * Icky: "Well, thing is, with Stygian, all he did was touch their stuff and tried to take it, which I think could ALSO be linked to that Dips*** of a Bishop, you basicly had a violent meltdown that killed one guard that ended up getting reserected by a magical Baracuda from another world! (The Pillars stared confused at that)...... Don't ask."
 * Starlight: "How we ended up going on the wrong path matters little?! The point is.... We're the same in one thing.... We both, allowed the hurt, of your idol doing something wrong to you, get to us! Which in term, allowed bad influences to rule us! I ended up listening to Fem Fatala because of Sunset turning against me. Stygian ended up listening to this Bishop because he felt like he didn't get the attention he deserved. And we both were heavily punished for making bad decisions. Starswirl, you and the other Pillars can hide behind how awful the Fear Wars was all you want, because I read a lot of history books about the subject to know that ALREADY! But don't ever, DARE, let it be a justification on how you ALL poorly treated Stygian!"
 * Flash Magnus: "Hey whoa whoa whoa, Starswirl's the one who laid the blunt hammer on the guy!"
 * Starlight: "True, but did ANY OF YOU STOP HIM?!"
 * The other pillars looked at each other.....
 * Somnambula: ".... Please understand that we didn't see the full context of the situation as much as Starswirl did."
 * Mage Meadowbrook: "Well yeah. As far as we all knew, we assumed that jealousy, feeling anxiety and post-Fear Wars Stress had gotten to him. A lot of ponies didn't have their heads screwed on right at those dreadful times. Betrayals became common."
 * Rockhoof: "Believe us lass, if we had the chance to know better and realize it was all because of that wicked Bishop, we could've asked Starswirl to at least be a bit more merciful on Stygian."
 * Flash Magnus: "Duh, well, in my defense, it ain't like Stygian actively tried to justify himself, I-"
 * Starlight: "DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT THE BISHOP ASKED HIM TO KEEP QUIET ABOUT IT?!"
 * Mistmane: "Young one, we may be great heroes, but we're not gods. We're not all knowing or omnipotent. We were just as mortal as everypony else."
 * Iago: "In other words:..... NOBODY'S PERFECT?! That's what's been hammered into Twilight's head since the Storm King and her dumb mistake with the hippogriffs. Even the likes of these guys make screw ups every once in the while! So, GET OVER IT?!"
 * Starlight: "And that's another thing!!"
 * Iago: OH FOR THE LOVE OF THUNDRA!?
 * Starlight: "You five also didn't called out Starswirl for BANISHING A KID INTO A DARK REALM?!"
 * Rockhoof: "DON'T ACCUSE US AS APOLOGISTS TO EVERY MISTAKE STARSWIRL MADE?! AS A MATTER OF FACT, WE DID GET A WEE BIT HUFFY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT WEE ONE AND HOW WELL HE HANDLED THE BISHOP?!"
 * Mistmane claimed Rockhoof down....
 * Mistmane: "..... Be assured that Starswirl was not without scrutiny from that event..... But the thing is, we understood his piece. He firmly believed there was no helping the young one in what happened to him."
 * Mage Meadowbrook: "You didn't think we got ornery when we heard that?! I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW, I SLAPPED STARSWIRL'S FACE WHEN I HEARD THAT?! I LET OUT MY PASSIONATE WORDS ONTO HIS BEARDED FACE FOR WHAT HE DID?! I COULD NEVER FORGET THE TEARS I SHED FROM THAT DAY?!"
 * Flash Magnus: "You want proof that I was upset!? I TRIED TO FLATTEN HIS FACE WITH MY SHEILD?! STARSWIRL WOULD'VE HAD TO START WEARING A PEG-HORN IF SOMNAMBULA HADN'T HELD ME BACK?!"
 * Somnabula: "Make no mistake, young one.... My glare at Starswirl was as venomous as a Cobra's Fangs...... But, Mistmane and Myself had cool heads preveil and understand Starswirl's reasons.... And by all means, this dark truth is something NONE OF US, will make peace with! But we trusted that Starswirl only did was needed to be done to safeguard Equestria. It was already suffering from ONE monster of fear! It didn't needed another!"
 * Starlight: "LOOK, I'M NOT IGNORENT OF THAT?! IT'S JUST, EVEN IF THE BISHOP WAS A TOTAL F*****G TWAT, HE WAS STILL A FATHER WHO LOST HIS SON?! HOW CAN YOU EXCUSE THAT EVER!?"
 * Starswirl: "(Gets angry with a flaring horn) WOULD YOU RATHER THAT I ALLOWED THAT CHILD TO PROLONG THE FEAR WARS, JOIN PITCH BLACK, OR EVEN DESTROY EQUESTRIA?!"
 * Silence.......
 * Trixie: "..... DRAMA?!"
 * The Rest of the Lodgers: SHUT UP TRIXIE, YOU'RE NOT HELPING?!
 * Starlight:... No... But I could've found a better solution. You know, instead of treating other worlds or realms like dumping grounds without thinking. I can see why Celestia's biggest fear is losing faith in you, her surrogate father. Because you've got the controversy to make it happen. I'm glad Twilight is not as arrogant as you, because after what I did wrong, I would've been banished to a world far worse than Poi-Son. (Leaves and slams herself into the van)
 * Stygian:... My word.
 * Twilight:... I can see why you never explained the full story.
 * Starswirl: Well, Starlight's reaction was not what I expected. Besides, there's times when I feel like there's better solutions. The Fear Wars were where I contemplated it the most. But poor Little Dipper wasn't going to be cured from his new Taraxippus form very easily, you know. Those creatures are beyond even Alicorn understanding.
 * Icky: Tara what now?
 * Starswirl: Taraxippus.
 * Icky:... (He looked it up quick on his iPhone)... Oh, wow! In Greek mythology, the Taraxippus (plural: taraxippoi, "horse disturber", Latin equorum conturbator) was a presence, variously identified as a ghost or dangerous site, blamed for frightening horses at hippodromes throughout Greece. So, is that what the Pony of Shadows was basicly was?
 * Starswirl: Correct. And was their leading vanguard. In fact... The Pony of Shadows itself has existed since the Age of the Alicorns, and so has it's kind....
 * (Starswirl): (As an Alicorn similar to this, only with dark magic eyes similar to King Sombra's, was seen)... They were created by Prince Woeus. Everything about Woeus was cold and dark.... Even his home was what Hollow Shades is today, as the land was brewing with his dark influence. He created not just the Umbras associated with King Sombra, but also the Taraxippuses, including the Pony of Shadows, back before Pitch himself even arrived. He sought to rule the land by fear, until the head gods Philosophia and Temperanus cast him off and turned him forever into darkness, as he ended up manifested into a shadow realm of whence to exile his Taraxippus creations...
 * Starswirl:... That is until the Great Fear Wars, when Pitch Black managed to find his home, the Woe Hippodrome, where Woeus himself tortured mortals until they cracked and became more Taraxippus followers. Pitch managed to free them and form an alliance with them, and after their own previous Pony of Shadows was destroyed... They picked another... That ended up being freed herself, as... A certain pony that defeated and freed her... Assured that the poor soul has been made eternally sad and tormented and is still missing as a pony with cursed immortality, and needed to be cured of this curse.... Then... That's when-
 * Spyro: When they got to Stygian?
 * Starswirl: Indeed. It didn't exactly happen before Pitch was defeated. Remnants of the darkness of Woeus and the Taraxippises remained in where Stygian became the next Pony of Shadows, within the Well of Shade, existed for them to choose another. In this case, a betrayed soul lost in the Great Fear Wars, with nowhere else to turn to but the darkness... And as a result... It got us into a horrible case of karma when Bishop Dipper became a problem. We had to bring the Pony of Shadows into limbo with us to ensure he and the Pony of Shadows stayed there in Ponehenge... Then you all freed us... No thanks to Twilight! (Twilight chuckled nervously)... (Sigh) But, I want to make clear that I do reckindse the good intention beyond the, albeit, still most epic blunder in the history of Equestia, and I will give due credit that at least with you, your heart was in the right place. My upset with you only stemmed from my perfect plan being undone.
 * Icky: "Ya didn't exactly left a warning for people like Twilight to NOT do that!"
 * Starswirl: "Alchourse I left a warning! My journel was designed to show a hologram of what happened and what was a good reason to leave the place well enough alone!"
 * Pinkie: "Ohhhhhh..... Well, the problem is..... It was kinda vague."
 * Starswirl: "(Starswirl was surprised)..... Define, vague?"
 * Applejack: "Well, ya didn't exactly said you didn't want help or get into anything spefific. That warning of yours could've been taken the wrong way and be mistaken for a signal for help."
 * Mistmane: "..... I told you we should've left a more proper warning then that flashy display you conjured up, ya old coot!"
 * Rockhoof: "Or at the least actselly leave a written warning in that book of yers!"
 * Flash Magnus: "But NOOOOOOOOOOOO, You wanted to be flashy and mysterious about it with a hologram light show! Yeah, it paid off well?!"
 * Meadowbrook: "Now let's not squabble like fillies and colts about this, we didn't exactly helped making that warning clear neither!"
 * Somanula: "I agree, and besides, immaturity and complaints get nothing done."
 * Starswirl: "(Sighs)..... You have to mind that arguement, we had long gotten into a, unfishished disagreement about the effectiveness of the warning I had chosen."
 * Icky: "To be fair, it was kinda vague. Twilight mistook that as "Please help us" as suppose to be the intended "Please leave this place the fuck alone"! Maybe you could've tried ACTIVELY saying that you want to be trapped in limbo with the freaky shadow monster before someone like Twilight ended up doing something stupid with this!"
 * Rockhoof: It did not even help that our disappearance was the biggest representation of Celestia's aforementioned worst fear. Specifically the one that made her briefly powerless against Pitch Black.
 * Twilight: Well... What about this 'eternally sad' pony?
 * Stygian: Her name is Doldrumsta Blue.... My sister.
 * Rainbow Dash: Oh, I guess that explains how you know who she is more than- (Did this)
 * Icky: "..... Well I guess being freaky shadow monsters runs in the family!"
 * Gazelle: ICKY!
 * Icky: WHAT, I CAN'T HELP BEING 'INSENSITIVE' AS YOU GUYS LIKE TO SLAP ON!!! I TRY TO OFFER LEVITY IN DRAMATIC MOMENTS LIKE THIS?!
 * Stygian: Well, you should try to be more considerate then that. Doldrumsta has been cursed with immortality and cursed to never EVER stop crying. The depression left from her time as the Pony of Shadows is an eternal torment.
 * Somnambula: Poor girl has never been able to find peace. A millennia of depression. Unable to die. Unable to feel happiness.
 * Icky:... Ohhhhhhhhhh.
 * Sparx: Yeah. You're an asshole and you should feel terrible.
 * Lord Shen: "That's Icky for you. He's practicly the king of imbaciles."
 * Stygian: Well, me and my family WERE from Hollow Shades after all. Doldrums... She wasn't a very happy pony before she became the Pony of Shadows.... I don't even like talking about it, but.... I have to....
 * (Stygian): (A young blue and white-purple-stripe-haired pony was seen) Let's just say she was the most horribly tormented victim of the Fear Wars. Bullies always got away with treating her how they wanted, she had no friends, she was the least appreciated of our siblings, she was extremely insecure, and just anything bad happened to her. She even lost a potentially good life and even our family, including our parents when they killed themselves with the Deconstruction Spell. I was all the company she had ever since. But one day, officially drew the line. The day she became the Pony of Shadows. In high school, she was welcomed one day, by bullies who claimed to have grown up, and-
 * (Icky): Let me guess, she was given the Carrie treatment and they made her prom queen only to cover her in blood?
 * (Stygian): Goodness no. They may had been aggressive bullies, but as ponies, they still had limits, albeit, very SMALL limits. It did occur on prom, though. See, she was welcomed and praised for withstanding years of oppression... Only for them to have saved the 'best' for last. What I was told was a surprise, turned out to be the biggest mistake they ever did. (They splashed her with blue paint, threw countless water balloons at her, mocked her with crying babyish gestures, and laughter as a young Stygian watched in shock and tried to stop them until they pushed him away)... (Doldrumsta started crying so loudly it shook the entire school as she gained black magic eyes that cried black magic goo as she slowly transformed)... The Pony of Shadows isn't always created by hatred and betrayal like me. Some, like poor Doldrums, are created by heartbreak, hurt feelings, and depression. (Doldrumsta became a feminine Pony of Shadows)...
 * Pony of Shadows: (Steven Universe Blue Diamond voice)... I TRUSTED you. You told me you'd changed. But you lied to me... AND I BELIEVED IT!!! (Cast a black field that caused everyone in the school to cry hysterically including Stygian, as the main one responsible revealed his loyalty to the Church of Woeus and left, while everyone began seeing tormenting visions and feeling Doldrumsta's pain, turning them one-by-one into Taraxippuses as Stygian escaped)...
 * (Stygian): I watched as she took the first of what was lost in Hollow Shades. She was forever lost to me.... Until she was rescued by what I was told was a surviving sibling of mine. Unfortunately I never saw her again. All that was told about her was that she was known as the Weeping Mare. Nopony knows where she is, but you could tell when she was around when everything turns blue and everyone in the blue field starts crying, water runs from the most random of places, and you hear sobs with a sound so heartbreaking, it hurts you emotionally.
 * Stygian: (Much of the heroes were sobbing) I swore to myself I'd find her someday. I even figured that the Pillars could help me. Unfortunately, Bishop Dipper got to me first.
 * Icky: "(Held back tears)...... Aw thanks alot making me feel like crap for trying to tell a joke, buddy!"
 * Stygian: "Making you cry wasn't my intention. That story has been known to, have that effect on ponies, and, otherworlders, as clearly seen."
 * Icky: SAVE IT, JACKASS! YOU KILLED MY MOOD! (Flies away crying)
 * Squidward:... What a baby.
 * Mr. Krabs: Tell me about it. It's his fault for being the king of imbeciles.
 * Stygian: "Hey, be nice! Mocking him won't improve his attatude."
 * Squidward: Says the one whose sister he insulted.
 * Stygian: More like he was commenting that the Pony of Shadows wasn't something exclusive to me. Any brashness is unintended. Nevertheless. He still doesn't deserve that kind of scorn.
 * Iago: "Yeesh, and we thought the new guy X is abit toughy about how characters are treated in this series. I mean, we're not being malicious to him, he was just being an asshole."
 * Stygian: "Well maybe there's a coloration between him always having a nasty attatude and your quickness to punish him for speaking out of line, regaurdless of legit disrespectfulness or not...."
 * Silence.....
 * Lord Shen: "..... Son of a gun, he's, he's not 100% wrong. I think we may need to reavaluate how we disapleane disrespecters around here."
 * Stygian: Regardless, I feel that finding her is a big priority now. Now that Bishop Dipper is back, she could be in danger. We may not know where she is, but that won't stop Bishop Dipper. Her eternal depression made her a very successful Pony of Shadows to them.
 * Rockhoof: "Then I say we go to the Hollow Shades and give them a peace of our mind!"
 * Twilight: "But what about the Fanon Starswirls?"
 * Starswirl: "They don't pose the kind of threat Dipper is displaying. We will have to deal with them at our leasure."
 * ???: "Wait, before you go...."
 * Celestia and Luna showed up.
 * Rainbow Dash: "I was wondering where you two were!"
 * Luna: "We were taking our soon to be former Jester Punsy home. We wanted to come back as soon as possable to talk about the Fanon Starswirls, but..... Just our luck that stops being relivent to a grander threat."
 * Starswirl: Alas, it's true. We fear that... The power that corrupted Stygian was not done yet. And now we must once again confront it. And, I'm not sure if Stygian is ready for such a thing.
 * Rockhoof: Heck, he would never dare go back there since he was corrupted.
 * Celestia:... (Sighs)... I have ALWAYS been conflicted with such a thing all my life.
 * Starswirl: We are aware, your highness. I served as your father since... Your ACTUAL one disappeared... For fairly a short amount of years before... Our mistake with Stygian.
 * Luna: (Sighs)... I still regret what I said after you disappeared about you deserving it after Stygian became the Pony of Shadows. It served as a stepping stone for me becoming Nightmare Moon. We didn't know what happened to you, but I didn't care. It was a fear we thought we'd put behind us since the Fear Wars.
 * Lord Shen:... Fear, you say?
 * Celestia:... (Sighs) It's time we told you what we should've a long time ago. Twilight?
 * Twilight: Yes?
 * Celestia: You recall that Pitch Black used a fear during the Great Fear Wars to control us?
 * Iago: We mentioned it twice, so, yeah...
 * Twilight:... Yeah. You never talked about it.
 * Celestia:... (Sighs)... Well, I'm sure you were told it involves losing faith in Starswirl. But... That's not the entire story. We're scared of more than that. We're scared that our family, friends, or idols... Would turn dark or untrustworthy, like sister and Starswirl did.
 * Spike:... THAT explains SO MUCH MORE!
 * Starlight: (Was seen coming back and having heard that)... I can see why you were awfully hurt when Luna became Nightmare Moon.
 * Celestia: It was also another result of Pitch Black getting revenge following his defeat. After the last Pony of Shadows was beaten by another... It allowed Stygian's abandonment and exile make the Taraxippus turn him into the new Pony of Shadows...
 * Celestia: By leaving Stygian to be corrupted by the Church... We felt we couldn't trust him anymore. Luna suggested harshly that we leave him to his fate after he disappeared, and I never convinced her out of it, as even mentioning our parents made it worse. It served as one of the many building blocks that... Indeed turned her into Nightmare Moon.
 * Twilight:... How come you never told us about this?
 * Celestia: Because, after what we were through and after I clearly viewed you like a daughter after your achievements as a valedictorian... I thought that if I told you this at the time, given the situation we were ALREADY in with Cold-Heart and Pitch... It would've made your built-up attitude with Taiku and me worse, especially since dark magic was at play here. I... Didn't take the perfect time to tell you. But yes, the one thing we fear more than anything, is to watch our family go down the wrong path.
 * Icky: "(Came back as well after getting over it) Yeah, way to be part of a reason why that even happened, Gandolf Pony!"
 * Starswirl: "Kindly, keep in mind, that I have underestimated the powers within friendship...... And that of the consiquences of not taking the time to futher understand the situation and not look at the world in, "Black and White" as you would write it out as."
 * Lord Shen: "Well yes, I get that, I wouldn't be quick to be trustful to anyone that stoles something impourent from me myself, but if they were someone I had prior knowledge of and if they had a good reason, I would at least give them a stern but fair benifit of the doubt. Had this been a stranger or a known ingrate you had known, I would understand the rejection, but, Stygian was the reason your union exists. A lot of that trouble would've been prevented if you bunch didn't write him off as a mere jealious thief."
 * Starswirl: "In our defence, the realm in our time was still recovering from unenlighten times where motives are pretty clear cut. Friendship didn't had yet gotten to a lot of ponies. Back then, it was logical to assume that Stygian was yet another pony yet to have understand friendship."
 * Duke: "And there's nothing wrong with that, but you still should've at least talk with the guy! He would've had better reason then that!"
 * Starswirl: "(Sighs)..... I know, but we must not dwell too much in the past. We need to worry about the now and the future."
 * Luna: "You go and do what must be done with the Hollow Shades. We'll keep our eyes out for the Fanon Starswirls in the meantime."
 * Starswirl: That would be appreciated.

Chapter 5: Bishop Dipper Becomes the Pony of Shadows
Flashback... Present
 * Icky: Alright, Bishop, we got you RIGHT where I want you!
 * Bishop Dipper: "THIS CAN'T END LIKE THIS?! EVERYTHING WAS GOING PERFECTLY, UNTIL YOU CAUSED US TO LOSE DOLDSTRUMSTA ONCE AGAIN?!"
 * Icky: Hey, your own fault for being a giant asshole to Starswirl about something he couldn't help, Bishop Dips***! (The Bishop got angered at that statement)
 * Polaris: Oh no! Not again! Please don't say that again!
 * Icky: I don't give a s***! Bishop Dips*** deserves what's coming to him! (The Bishop got madder and displays a familiar smoky aura)
 * Polaris: PLEASE, STOP SAYING THAT NAME!!!
 * Starswirl: Bird, I think Polaris looks as if he's serious! Something doesn't feel right about the Bishop-
 * Icky: I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT! I WILL CALL THIS FALSE GOD NUTCASE, WHATEVER I WANT TO CALL HIM! DIP***, DIPS***-
 * Bishop Dipper: (He screamed a deafening and fearful screech as everyone held their ears as he grew a dark aura as Icky screamed in pure agony)
 * Alioth: Oh, now you've done it!
 * Alkaid: We're dead eh!
 * Polaris: I suggest we all run!
 * Polaris and the other presits began to make a run for it!
 * Starswirl: "(Stares at Icky) MOST INDEED, YOU ARE THE KING OF IMBACILES?!"
 * Bishop ends up revealing his true form as the Pony of Shadows...
 * Pony of Shadows: "STOP, CALLING ME, DIPS***?! IT'S, DIPPER?!"
 * Starswirl: I... It can't be!
 * Pony of Shadows: It is. Ever since Stygian was liberated of the Pony of Shadows, it needed a new host and found it's way on my doorstep.
 * Icky: "(Pained Daze) Oh, SUUUUUUUUURE, OF COURSE THE EVIL RELIJUSTUS FIGURE TURNS OUT TO BE ANOTHER SHADOW MONSTER?! I mean, sure, it's a nice deviation from this episode being A COMPLETE COPY OF THE NETFLIX CASTLEVAINIA SERIES, BUT, OWWWWWWW, DID THIS DEVIATION HAVE TO BE PAINFUL?!"
 * Pony of Shadows: "WELL YOUR OWN MISTAKE INSULTING ME, YOU IDIOTIC AVIAN?!"
 * Skipper: "As if this fun little neightberhood needed another problem from you. So now your a tyrant, AND a byproduct of the guy that started the fear wars? That's a double-whammy of you being unfit to lead anything, pal!"
 * Pony of Shadows: (In loud booming monstrous voice) SILENCE!!! (To Starswirl) YOU COULD NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH I HATED YOU AND YOUR PILLARS, STARSWIRL!!
 * (Pony of Shadows): I WAS RAISED IN HOLLOW SHADES BEFORE THE GREAT FEAR WARS! IN THAT TIME, I WAS A RESPECTED PRIEST OF HOPE IN DARK TIMES, CONSIDERING THE BLACK MAGIC OOZING IN THE LAND AFTER THE DEFEAT OF PRINCE WOEUS! I EVEN HAD A SON! LITTLE DIPPER WAS MY ONE TRUE HEIR, AND WOULD'VE DONE BETTER THAN ME! BUT SINCE THE FEAR WARS... (Taraxippuses were seen invading the land and successfully taking it back, as ponies like Dipper and his son were seen hiding in their reign)... WE WERE RUNNING FROM THE WRATH OF THOSE BEASTS! PITCH WAS ATTEMPTING TO PURGE THE ENTIRE PLACE OF IT'S INHABITANTS SO HE CAN TAKE IT AND HARNESS IT'S BLACK MAGIC FOR HIMSELF! BUT THEN... THANKS TO YOUR ARROGANCE AND PRIDE WHEN FIGHTING AGAINST THE PRINCESSES AND THE GUARDIANS OF CHILDHOOD, WE WERE FOUND BY PITCH, AND SO, THREATENED BY THE MAGNIFICENCE OF HIS TALENTS... PITCH ORDERED FOR HIM TO BE EXECUTED!
 * Bishop Dipper: LET HIM GO!! LET HIM GO!! (The Taraxippises took him away) NOOOOO!!!
 * Pitch: (Growls)... I want no further holdups! I want his father turned to stone immediately! (They took him off as he was crying)
 * (Pony of Shadows): I HAD ASSUMED HE WAS LOST THAT DAY WHEN I WAS TURNED TO STONE! (He was seen being petrified)... I THOUGHT ALL HOPE FOR OUR SOCIETY WAS LOST!... THEN YOU FINALLY RESPONDED, TOO LATE! (Hollow Shades was purged of Pitch's influence as all ponies left out of fear and torment)
 * Bishop Dipper: SON! (He hugged his son) You're alive! I-
 * Little Dipper: DON'T TOUCH ME!
 * Bishop Dipper: What?
 * Little Dipper: You got me nearly killed back there! I was trying to offer an ounce of hope by trying to rally up all these ponies, and even tried to contact the Princesses!... BUT YOU DIDN'T LISTEN TO ME! AND NOW LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO US! I had the solution to this whole problem, and suddenly I wasn't even allowed to say another word about it, because YOU WERE TOO MUCH OF A COWARD!!! HIDING NEVER SOLVED ANYTHING, EVEN IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS!!!
 * Bishop Dipper: Son, please-
 * Little Dipper: NO!... This... This is all your fault!
 * Bishop Dipper: This was NOT my fault! Starswirl was just too late!
 * Little Dipper:... You... YOU SHUNNED MY IDOL, BECAUSE OF BEING TOO LATE?!?
 * Bishop Dipper: HE GOT US CAPTURED IN THE BEGINNING, SON! I DIDN'T FULLY TRUST HIM ANY LONGER!
 * Little Dipper:... This is EXACTLY my point! You never trusted me, OR him! I'm sure he had good reasons! NOW YOU'RE SAYING HE'S A MENACE?!? IF YOU SAY HE'S A MENACE, THAT'S HURTING MY PRIDE!!! THE LIVELIHOODS OF EVERYPONY HERE HAVE BEEN DESTROYED BECAUSE OF YOU!
 * Bishop Dipper: Son, no- (He cast a certain spell)... Son, no!... DON'T DO IT! (The ponies noticed him using a spell)... DON'T DECONSTRUCT YOURSELF WITH THAT ACCURSED SPELL!!!
 * Little Dipper: I HOPE IT WAS WORTH SHUNNING MY IDOL, OLD MAN!... BECAUSE YOU JUST LOST SOMETHING TO GET IT! (He was deconstructed as Bishop Dipper panicked in tears)
 * Bishop Dipper: NOOOO!!! SON!! NOOOOOO!!! (He cried as the remnants of the spell manifested into a familiar figure as Little Dipper became a Taraxippus, frightening all the ponies as he cackled)
 * (Pony of Shadows): MY SON KILLED HIMSELF, BECAUSE YOU TURNED HIM AGAINST ME! AND SAVING US FROM HIM CHANGED NOTHING, BECAUSE YOU DID WHAT YOU ALWAYS DID WITH ANY THREAT... USE OTHER REALMS AS DUMPING GROUNDS!!! (Starswirl casted Little Dipper into the Shadow Realm)
 * Bishop Dipper: NOOOOOOO!!! MY SON!!! NOOOOO-HOOO-HOOO-HOOO-HOOOO!!! (He slumped down on the ground crying)...
 * Starswirl:... Bishop-
 * Bishop Dipper: DON'T TOUCH ME! (He attacked him with his magic as it turned into black magic with his hate)... YOU CAST HIM INTO THE SHADOW REALM!! I COULD'VE SAVED HIM!!! BUT YOU RUINED MY CHANCE TO SAVE HIM!!!
 * Starswirl: Bishop-
 * Bishop Dipper: DON'T, EVER, SPEAK TO ME AGAIN! I DON'T EVER WANNA SEE YOU AROUND MY OLD HOME, EVER, AGAIN! (He blasts him and the others away angrily, and looked at the ponies as they trembled in fear, as he ran off)
 * Icky: (With bleeding earholes) MY EARHOLES!!!!
 * Pony of Shadows: Your pride and arrogance ruined my one chance to make up everything I did wrong to my son, BY HIS SIDE! That's why I had to ensure your protégé Stygian paid the price by being our God's new Pony of Shadows. I founded this religion to correct what you were never qualified to correct. IT SHOULD'VE BEEN ME AND MY SON! And though I was tainted by the darkness of the land, it was too late to turn back because I now realize that I am the threat you destroyed COMING BACK TO HAUNT YOU! Now I have the power to achieve my goals of bringing back the Taraxippi, and being their new vanguard. I WILL NOT REST UNTIL JUSTICE IS SERVED!!!
 * Starswirl:... Bishop... I'm sorry I banished your son! But he was too long gone! He-
 * Pony of Shadows: (In a much louder voice) NOO!!! YOU MADE ME LOOK BAD TO HIM WITH YOUR PRIDE AND ARROGANCE!!! I HAD THE CHANCE TO MAKE IT UP TO HIM, AND YOU TOOK IT AWAY FROM ME!! YOU'RE NO LEGEND! YOU'RE A MONSTER! NOW, YOU WILL DIE IN THE HOOVES OF ONE!
 * Starswirl: I WAS TRYING TO PROTECT THEM, AND YOUR SON, AND YOU!!!
 * Pony of Shadows: (Cackles insanely) You don't give hope, you old fool! YOU TAKE IT AWAY! So I'll take away yours!! (He cast powerful thunderstorms blowing away all the heroes as he disappeared, cackling ominously)...
 * Icky:... Whoops!
 * Everyone: WHOOPS?!? (The Pony of Shadows did this and unleashed Taraxippi that attacked the heroes and left to spread fear)
 * Icky: "(Sees ponies being turned into more Shadow Ponies) Okay, NOW things are back to basicly being a G-Rated Netflix Castlevainia!"
 * Punzor and the Tartarus Journel were seen from above the church building watching this.
 * Tartarus Journel: "What did I tell ya, punsy? Told ya the guy is perfect for the job. Now we can sit back and enjoy the ride, for Nightmare Night now has something to REALLY scream about?!"
 * The Tartarus Journel started to laugh as Punzor joined in relucently, but the corruptive enfluence got Punzor more into it!
 * The Tartarus Journel: "And now, once the only guys who can hurt us are out of the way, we can start summoning the prisoners of Tartarus right out to join the fun! Till then, let's sit back and watch our masterpiece, unfold!"
 * Punzor: "Now this is a comedy act I NEED to see!"
