**Derpy**: [groans]**Cozy Glow**: Thank you for the mail delivery. Have a wonderful day!

**Cozy Glow**: You're new here, right? I'm Cozy Glow, Professor Sparkle's friendship assistant. Welcome to our school! Your first class is just down that hall.

**Cozy Glow**: A seven-letter word for "teamwork". Have you tried "synergy"?**Silverstream**: That's it! Thanks, Cozy!**Cozy Glow**: What are friends for?

- [door opens, closes]
**Cozy Glow**: Good morning, Professor Sparkle!**Twilight Sparkle**: The mail's here already? What time is it?! I'm late for my class's field trip to Cloudsdale! [panting]**Cozy Glow**: Don't worry. I asked Professor Rainbow Dash to cover for you.**Twilight Sparkle**: And she said yes?**Cozy Glow**: Uh-huh. I told her how busy you are and how much her loyalty meant to you. I also color-coded your teaching schedule by friendship element and catalogued all the magical artifacts in the school. I hope that's okay.**Twilight Sparkle**: Okay? Cozy, that's amazing! You're like my right-hoof pony! I don't know what I'd do without you.**Cozy Glow**: [giggles] It's like you taught me. Helping is what friendship's all about.**Twilight Sparkle**: Exactly. And hopefully my class is learning that on their field trip right now.**Cozy Glow**: I heard they might do some sightseeing first.

- [thunder and lightning]
**Rainbow Dash**: Ta-da! The Pegasus Weather Factory! Every drop of rain or flake of snow from Cloudsdale comes from there.- [sounds of awe]
**Rainbow Dash**: I know, right? Hey! The cool stuff's over here!**Ocellus**: Wow! I've never stood on a cloud before!**Starlight Glimmer**: You can't normally. But for our trip, I cast a spell that lets us walk like Pegasi.- [wind whistling]
**Gallus**: Hey, Yona! Come check out this view! Unless you're too scared.**Yona**: [teeth chattering] Yona not scared! [screams] Now Yona scared!- [students gasp]

- [theme song]

**Yona**: [screams]- [magic fizzles]
**Starlight Glimmer**: [gasps]- [ponies and creatures gasping]
**Rainbow Dash**: Come on! We gotta catch 'em!- [ponies screaming]
**Yona**: [screams]**Gallus**: Gotcha!**Ocellus**: It's okay, Yona! You like flying, remember?**Yona**: Flying, not falling!- [thud]
**Yona**: [kissing sounds]**Starlight Glimmer**: I don't understand. It-It's like my spell stopped working. That's... never happened before.

- [door opens]
**Starlight Glimmer**: We have an emergency!**Rainbow Dash**: The students dropped out of the sky!**Twilight Sparkle**: Slow down. What happened?**Starlight Glimmer**: I cast a spell for our field trip to Cloudsdale, but my magic just failed.**Rainbow Dash**: We barely caught everypony in time!**Twilight Sparkle**: I'm glad you're all okay, but I'm sure it's nothing to worry about, Starlight. Maybe you did your spell wrong. Let's take a look.- [thud]
**Twilight Sparkle**: I didn't drop that book.**Starlight Glimmer**: [sarcastically] Maybe you did your spell wrong?- [thud]
**Rarity**: Ow!- [door opens]
**Fluttershy**: Rarity ran into the door.**Rarity**: [sobbing] My magic is go-o-o-one! I even had to use my*hooves*to coif my tail!**Rainbow Dash**: Still think there's nothing to worry about?**Twilight Sparkle**: This doesn't make any sense. Magic can't just disappear. Something has to be causing this.**Cozy Glow**: Um, didn't we learn in class about a creature that eats magic? Ter, Tee... Tir-something?**Fluttershy**: [gasps] Tirek!**Rainbow Dash**: Isn't he trapped in Tartarus?- [door opens]
**Spike**: [gagging]**Twilight Sparkle**: Spike, what's wrong?**Spike**: [gagging, belches, sighs] Thanks. I've never had a letter get stuck before. It's from Princess Celestia! We've all been called to an emergency meeting in Canterlot! Look!- [magic fizzles]
**Twilight Sparkle**: Pretty sure I know what it's about.

**Princess Celestia**: Throughout our city, ponies have been reporting tales of their magic failing. Spells going wrong. Potions not working.**Princess Luna**: Even raising the moon has become difficult. Are there similar troubles in Ponyville?**Twilight Sparkle**: We experienced it first-hoof.**Princess Cadance**: It's the same in my kingdom. The Crystal Heart seems safe for now, but I worry if this continues.- [door opens]
**"Special Delivery"**: [panting] Letter for the princess from Star Swirl the Bearded!**Princess Celestia**: Ah! It is even more terrible than we feared! Magic is disappearing all across Equestria!- [ponies gasp]
**Princess Celestia**: Star Swirl believes the power will drain from our land in three days. First, unicorn magic and spells will fail.**Starlight Glimmer**: That's what's happening now.**Princess Celestia**: On the second day, creatures will lose their magic abilities.**Fluttershy**: [gasps] Oh, no!**Princess Celestia**: And finally, magical artifacts will stop working. When the sun sets on the third day, the magic in our world will be gone forever!- [ponies gasp]
**Princess Cadance**: But why is this happening now?**Princess Luna**: That's the worst part. We have no idea.**Twilight Sparkle**: Has anypony checked on Tirek?**Pinkie Pie**: You mean the big, red, scary centaur who eats magic? Why would we wa— Ohhhh. Riiiiight.**Princess Celestia**: If he has found some way to escape his prison or work from within it, he could be responsible for this.**Princess Luna**: That is the best explanation so far. Somepony should investigate.**Twilight Sparkle**: We'll go.**Rarity**: Oh, no-no-no-no-no-no. Not without us, you wo— Wait. Did you say "we"?**Twilight Sparkle**: I've finally learned that it's okay to count on your friends for help. Um, you do want to come, right?**Rainbow Dash**: Uh, duh!**Princess Celestia**: Thank you, all. We will search for ways to protect Equestria in your absence.**Princess Luna**: Be careful. Tartarus has changed since you were there. It now holds many dangerous creatures, and you won't be able to rely on your magic.**Applejack**: With her friends by her side, she won't have to.

- [door opens]
**Twilight Sparkle**: Okay. I left you my lesson plan, all my student files, and my annotated syllabus notes. If anything goes wrong, get Celestia.**Starlight Glimmer**: Got it!**Twilight Sparkle**: Maybe I should just close the school and send my students home.**Starlight Glimmer**: [sighs] Would you go save Equestria already?**Spike**: Okay. Cozy packed us all up for a trip to bad guy central.**Cozy Glow**: Don't forget the sandwiches. I marked whose is whose, just in case. [whispering, to Spike] Starlight can't stand mustard.**Starlight Glimmer**: That's so sweet of you, Cozy. But Twilight has asked me to stay here to run the school.**Cozy Glow**: Oh. I thought that after what happened last time—**Spike**: Once she's survived Discord, anything else is a piece of cake.**Cozy Glow**: [whimpers]**Twilight Sparkle**: Plus, she'll have you to help her.**Cozy Glow**: Oh, golly, yes! I promise I'll be the best assistant ever! Come on. We can start working on your substitute headmare plans right now, if you like.**Starlight Glimmer**: Wow. Uh, okay.**Twilight Sparkle**: See? Nothing to worry about. Tell me there's nothing to worry about.

- [doors open]
- [students chattering]
**Cozy Glow**: Good morning, friendship students! I know we're all sad Professor Sparkle is away. But don't worry, because she left me in charge to do things just the way she would.**Gallus**: Uh, I thought Starlight Glimmer was gonna be temporary headmare.**Cozy Glow**: She was, but she left me this note. [reading] "I have to go. Twilight needs my help. I know the school is in good hooves with you, Cozy." [giggles] Isn't that sweet? We won't let Starlight down, will we?- [students agreeing]
**Smolder**: It's just kind of weird, isn't it?**Cozy Glow**: I don't know what you mean.**Smolder**: Like, why'd she change her mind? Why did Starlight write a note instead of saying goodbye to us herself? Doesn't make any sense.- [students murmuring]
**Cozy Glow**: [giggles] Oh, Smolder, you forget. We're not scheming dragons. We're ponies. Sounds like somecreature needs to do a little extra friendship homework.- [students laughing]
**Smolder**: [growls]**Yona**: Yak not pony either! If Smolder get homework, Yona get homework.**Ocellus**: Me, too!**Sandbar**: I'm in!**Silverstream**: Yeah! [laughs] Homework party!- [beat]
**Gallus**: [groans] Fine.**Cozy Glow**: What loyalty. Professor Rainbow Dash would be so proud. You are such good friends. You all are. And I'm grateful because it will be awfully hard running a whole school alone. Can I count on each of you to help me?- [students cheering]
**Cozy Glow**: Thank you so much! It's just like our professors taught us. Together, we can get through anything!

- [Fly-ders buzzing]
**Rarity**: [blows]- [smack!]
**Rarity**: Ow! Ugh! I have had it with these horrible flies! [whines] I miss my magic!**Twilight Sparkle**: Have you tried using your tail to shoo them away?**Rarity**: [gasps] Bite your tongue! It's for decorative purposes only!**Pinkie Pie**: Hey! I didn't know we packed green cupcakes.**Fluttershy**: Um, we didn't. They must've gone bad without magic to keep them cold.**Rainbow Dash**: "Magic" this, "magic" that. We don't need magic to go on a little hike.- [thunder]
- [rain falling]
**Rarity**: You were saying?**Applejack**: You just need to think more like Earth ponies, y'all. Granny's "Apple Core No-Bite-No-More"! That'll keep the flies off.**Pinkie Pie**: [sniffs] Ugh! It smells just like it looks!**Fluttershy**: Even if our food's spoiled, these blueberries are still good to eat.**Spike**: Too bad we can't do anything about the rainstorm.**Rainbow Dash**: I can't stop that storm by myself, but I can still help!- [thunder]
**Twilight Sparkle**: I think we have all the magic we need right here. Not that I don't want to get it back. Heh. Let's go!

- [students chattering]
**"Citrine Spark"**: Cozy Glow baked our class cupcakes today!**"Berry Bliss"**: And she made all of us friendship bracelets!**"Patty Peppermint"**: She's the nicest pony I've ever met. I'm so glad she's headmare!**Sandbar**: Uh,*temporary*headmare? Right, guys?**"Citrine Spark"**: Oh, oh, of course. But if Twilight takes her time coming back, I won't mind.- [students laughing]

- [door opens]
**Silverstream**: Finally! We thought you forgot about study club.**Sandbar**: Sorry I'm late. Cozy Glow gave our class tickets to a Sapphire Shores concert in Ponyville tonight.**Gallus**: You get the feeling Cozy's trying too hard to make us like her?**Ocellus**: Or maybe she just wants to help us keep our minds off of how scary it is that magic's disappearing.**Smolder**: I don't trust her. What's she up to behind those big eyes and bouncy curls?- [clattering]
**Yona**: And why Cozy pony coming out catacombs so late at night?**Gallus**: Let's go ask her.

**Twilight Sparkle**: This is the only door to Tartarus. The good news is the seal isn't broken, so we know Tirek didn't escape.**Applejack**: Let me guess. You got bad news, too?**Twilight Sparkle**: Last time I was here, I had to use magic to get in. And according to Star Swirl, all unicorn magic was gone by yesterday's sunset.**Rainbow Dash**: Maybe he was wrong.**Twilight Sparkle**: [grunts]- [magic fizzles]
**Twilight Sparkle**: [sighs]**Pinkie Pie**: Don't worry, Twilight. I got this.- [knock, knock]
**Pinkie Pie**: Free pizza delivery!- [beat]
**Pinkie Pie**: Huh. Always worked before. Oh, well.**Applejack**: Did any of y'all pack somethin' that could*actually*help?**Rarity**: These all do magic, but not the kind we're looking for, I'm afraid.**Spike**: How about this?**Twilight Sparkle**: The Key of Unfettered Entrance! Where did you find this, Spike?**Spike**: In your bag. Cozy Glow must've packed it for you.**Twilight Sparkle**: She really did think of everything.**Fluttershy**: Um, what does it do?**Twilight Sparkle**: It can magically open any door. And since artifacts like this haven't lost their power yet...- [whirring]
- [gears clicking]
- [cranking sounds]
- [shatter!]
**Twilight Sparkle**: I guess it only works once.- [door slams]

- [cockatrice hisses]
**Mane Six**and**Spike**: [gasp]**Applejack**: Cockatrice!**Rarity**: Do something, Fluttershy!**Rainbow Dash**: Don't look at it! It'll turn you to stone!- [cockatrice hisses]
**Pinkie Pie**: I don't feel like stone.- [boing, boing]
**Pinkie Pie**: Unless it's really bouncy stone.**Fluttershy**: I think he lost his magic, too. All the creatures here must have.- [low growling]
**Twilight Sparkle**: Star Swirl said that would happen on the second day.**Spike**: I know it should make me feel safer, but it just makes me sad. We gotta fix this!

- [door opens]
- [chair creaks]
**Chancellor Neighsay**: Where is Princess Twilight?!**Cozy Glow**: Oh, golly. She's away on a quest. I'm watching the school for her.**Chancellor Neighsay**: Magic is failing across our land, and she left a*foal*in charge of this facility?**Cozy Glow**: Yes, sir! Is there anything I can do for you?**Chancellor Neighsay**: That won't be necessary. Twilight's folly stops here. As of now,*I*am headstallion. And I have quite a few changes to make.

**Pinkie Pie**: If all these monsters lost their magic, then getting past Cerberus should be easy-peasy!- [loud thudding]
**Rainbow Dash**: Look out!**Mane Six**and**Spike**: [scream]**Fluttershy**: I'll talk to him.**Cerberus**: [growls]**Fluttershy**: Um, excuse me, puppy?**Cerberus**: [snorts]**Fluttershy**: You're a very good guard dog. Yes, you are. But, um, we were wondering if we could get by to check on Tirek.**Cerberus**: [slurping]**Applejack**: That looks like a yes.- [splash!]
**Rarity**: I'll get you a towel, darling.**Fluttershy**: [giggling]

**Lord Tirek**: The Princess of Friendship here for a visit. What have I done to earn the honor of your company?**Twilight Sparkle**: We want answers, Tirek. Magic is disappearing from Equestria.**Lord Tirek**: I know. What a waste of such... [slurping] ...mmmm, delicious power.**Rainbow Dash**: So you*are*behind this!**Lord Tirek**: Silly filly, if I had all of that magic, you think I'd still be locked up in here? But I might know something about it...

**Cozy Glow**: What are you doing?! Those are Twilight's student files!**Chancellor Neighsay**: These aren't. Not anymore. With Equestria under attack, ponies must stand together. Twilight has endangered us all by skipping off on friendship trips while these dangerous creatures run loose.**Cozy Glow**: You don't think*they're*the reason magic is disappearing, do you?**Chancellor Neighsay**: Yes, and I came to warn Twilight. But since she is gone, it falls to me to protect you foals from these monsters.**Young Six**: [murmuring]**Chancellor Neighsay**: Did you hear something?**Cozy Glow**: It sounded like it came from over there!- [door creaks]
**Young Six**: [grunt]**Chancellor Neighsay**: You again. As I suspected.- [magic surging]
**Young Six**: [scream]**Chancellor Neighsay**: From now on, this school is pony-only! As nature intended.

- [door opens]
- [thud]
**Chancellor Neighsay**: Since you refuse to explain your plot against Equestria and return the magic you stole, you will stay here while I summon your guardians to take you home.**Sandbar**: Wait! You were right about them from the beginning, Chancellor. I see that now.**Smolder**: What are you saying?!**Silverstream**: Sandbar?!**Sandbar**: I don't want anything to do with*creatures*that could threaten Equestria!**Chancellor Neighsay**: Wisely put, colt.- [magic surging]
**Chancellor Neighsay**: Everypony will come to their senses eventually.- [door closes]

- [thud]
- [thud]
- [multiple thuds]
**Apple Bloom**: [yawns]- [clatter!]
**Apple Bloom**: What in tarnation?!**Sandbar**: Sorry. I ran out of apples. I need the Cutie Mark Crusaders. My friends are in trouble. Chancellor Neighsay locked them up.**Apple Bloom**: Huh? I thought Cozy Glow was in charge.**Sandbar**: Not anymore. But you guys are good buddies. If you can convince her to distract Neighsay, I can break out my friends. Will you help me?**Apple Bloom**: Do mulberries have seeds?- [beat]
**Apple Bloom**: That's a yes.

**Twilight Sparkle**: Where is Equestria's magic going, Tirek? What's making it disappear?**Lord Tirek**: If you let me out, I'm sure it will jog my memory. What do you say? I scratch your back, you scratch mine?**Rainbow Dash**: How about you tell us what you know or you'll be stuck here forever, because we're out of magic keys and nopony can open the door?**Rarity**: Oh, dear. I hadn't thought of that.**Spike**: We're just as trapped as Tirek?**Lord Tirek**: [chuckles] What a pity. Well, for you. Sweet revenge for me. It seems my little protégé's plan worked after all.**Mane Six**and**Spike**: [gasp]**Applejack**: Which little protégé?**Lord Tirek**: Oh, we've never met. We're pen pals. Each letter had so many questions about draining magic.**Pinkie Pie**: And you answered them?!**Lord Tirek**: I was bored. So I simply pointed my pen pal in the right direction.- [thud]
**Fluttershy**: Can't you just tell us your pen pal's name? I mean, since we're stuck here anyway?**Lord Tirek**: Oh, why not? The irony is too perfect. Her name is...

**Sandbar**: Cozy Glow! I-I could've sworn I saw her come down this way when she left her office.- [clang!]
**Sandbar**and**Cutie Mark Crusaders**: [gasp]**Cozy Glow**: Enjoying yourself in there, Starlight? I'm sorry I had to push you in. But what else could I do? You were going to ruin all my plans.**Sandbar**and**Cutie Mark Crusaders**: [gasp]**Cozy Glow**: You might get some company soon, if I can't make that annoying Neighsay*back off!*[inhales, exhales] All this magic needs time to drain from Equestria before my vortex sucks it to another realm. [giggles] Three days can sure seem like forever, huh? You know, you ponies got it all wrong. Friendship isn't magic. Friendship is*power!*With Twilight and her lackeys out of my way, all of Equestria will bow to*me!*The future Empress of Friendship! [maniacal laughter]
