I thought everything was fine! WHAT IS GOING ON!?!!
Everything was going fine...
We tried to fix it ourselves.
We didn't want you to freak out.
And you thought NOT telling me everything was a total disaster would AVOID a freak-out?!!
When you say it like that, it sounds like a really bad plan.
[Twilight sucks in a deep breath as Discord watches, hoping she'll freak out and hyperventilate]
I know how I used to react... But I really have changed! [smiles] Panicking won't solve anything!
[Discord rolls his eyes annoyingly as the Princesses show up]
But we can handle whatever problems come our way, as long as we handle them together.
Princess Celestia
Spoken like a true leader.
ENOUGH! Because of you, I almost lost my way! But everycreature here has reminded me of the true power of friendship! There will always be darkness in the world, but there will also always be those who find the light! [Teleports all the captives to the battleground and begins to glow; the Pillars glow as well] The Pillars knew this! That's why they created the Elements of Harmony! The Elements showed me and my friends how strong our friendship could be! Together we worked to bring harmony to Equestria! [Her friends glow and float up] But there will always be more to do! Which is why we teach others about the Magic of Friendship! [The students glow and float up] Others who will continue our mission after we are gone! Now I truly understand! The Elements were just symbols! The real magic has always been right here! And the more who understand how powerful friendship is, the stronger we will all be! Together!
[The three groups fire rainbow beams at Twilight, who fires a rainbow beam of her own to the sky.]
[The beams shines down on the villains, taking their powers away along.]
You think friendship will save you?! We will always return! Nothing will ever stop--!
[splat!]
[rain falling]
[electrical discharge]
Pinkie! You took Discord's magic from the bell? How do you feel?
Hmmm... Tingly. Itchy. Also like... [slam!] I COULD TRANSFORM THE COSMOS SO EVERYTHING IS MADE OF ICING!
Perhaps maybe I should...
[dizzily] Waiter! There's some chaos in my soup!
[reverbarating gong]
Princess Celestia
There isn't a punishment worthy of all you've done!
[whispering] You know what I would do if I were... [indistinct]
Oh. That does seem fitting.
[zap!, boom!, crackling]
[The princesses and Discord zap the villains with their magic, turning them to stone.]
Together forever. I can't think of anything that they would want less!
[gulps] Well, at least the coronation is over.
I was just about to say the same thing. I know maybe it wasn't the coronation you planned, but it's good to see all of you laughing.
We wanted to give this to you before you left Ponyville, but things got a little hectic.
Since you're moving away, we thought if you missed any of us or Ponyville, this might help.
And we all chipped in some.
No matter how much things change, you'll always have this to look back on.
I love it. Thank you so much. But I don't want to only look back. Obviously the coronation wasn't perfect, but that doesn't matter. It's our relationships that really count, and we have to maintain them.
But now that we'll be living in different places, I'm not exactly sure how.
I am. I suggest we meet once a moon. In fact, my first royal decree as ruler of Equestria is to establish this Council of Friendship!
MSMane Six, Starlight Glimmer, and Spike
[cheering]
Princess Celestia
And what a wonderful decree it is!
We always knew that whatever adversity you faced, you and your friends would find your way through it together.
Princess Celestia
We know Equestria is in the perfect hooves with you and your friends looking out for it. And while we'll always be here if you need us, it's time for us to be on our way.
We hope you'll come and visit us in Silver Shoals.
Princess Celestia
But now it's time for you to rule on your own. You're all more than capable.
Thank you. For everything. Mmmm! [chuckling]
