A Secret Evil Scheme by a Hidden Rasputin and his Goons/Dorothy's Group's Memories with Mary

(Far away from the castle upon crossing one of the bridges, Mephiles, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups arrived in, shocker, the Fourth Realm without any trouble, although Popple and Michael's groups, with Popple's group consisting Popple, Bartok, Tiny, Dingodile, Fife, and the Fearsome Four, feel a little hesitant, and it's not the Fourth Realm's creepy dead forest scenery, it was something else. Fat Tony's gang noticed their reaction and spoke to them reassuringly in a calm confident way)
Fat Tony: Relax.
Louie: It'll be fine.
Legs: Nothing to be scared of.
Johnny Believe us.
(Even Mephiles piped in in agreement, but his reassurance doesn't sound friendly like Fat Tony's gang's is)
Mephiles: Yeah, does it matter?
(Secretly feeling uneasy for a bit by Mephiles' remark, Popple and Michael's groups and even Fat Tony's gang composed themselves and Popple and Michael's groups felt somewhat better)
Michael's group: Thanks, Papa. (Daddy.)
Popple's group: Yeah, thanks. (thankssss.)
(Then they and Mephiles arrived at a huge tunnel entrance, and there stood Pikachu and Meowth. They greeted each other)
Meowth: Hey, guys.
Pikachu: (Greeting them calmly) Pika, chu.
Mephiles, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups: Hey.
Mephiles: We're here to see Rasputin and his army.
Meowth: (Nonchalantly) Yeah, we know.
Bartok: (Sighs nonchalantly in agreement) Here's my least favorite part of seeing them.
(Then a dark-looking ghostly cart appeared at the tunnel's entrance and yanked them up into it)
Bartok: (Nervously in a nonchalant way) And it's this part.
(Then then cart zipped through the tunnel like it's some roller coaster, and the only one panicking on this ride is Bartok while the non-serious members were just feeling a little woozy from it)
Bartok: (Panicking) Mayday, mayday!
(They zipped by a lava chamber)
Bartok: (Wiping his brow) It's hot!
(Then they finally crashed right into a huge dark-looking cavern, sending Popple's group flying right into some flat rocks. Upon recovery, they sat up, rubbing their faces and/or rears, while Fat Tony's gang and Michael's group checked up on Popple's group while they and Mephiles just climbed out of the cart)
Johnny: You okay?
Mephiles: (Nonchalantly) Yes, you okay?
Popple's group: Yeah.
Bartok: But oh, boy. Ow! I tell you what, ow.
(Then twenty-four dark-looking figures appeared, making the non-serious ones jump in a startled way. The first dark-looking figure is a cross between a male sorcerer and a corpse with green skin, short black ponytailed hair, yellow eyes, a long black beard, crooked teeth, sharp nails, and wearing a brown long-sleeved hooded monk's robe and black boots, and sometimes carried a glowing green reliquary as his weapon.

The twentieth dark-looking figure is a male Beanbean creature with green skin, a bald head with a tuft of black hair, swirly blue eyes, and wearing black glasses, a red long-sleeved shirt, black pants, a red cape with a dark gray interior and gold lining, and dark green boots.

Upon arriving, the dark-looking figures are suspicious at first, with the lead one being suspicious and angry altogether)
Lead dark-looking figure: Who dares intrude our hideout?!
Male jackal: Who goes there?!
(Then after kicking a nearby stalagmite to pieces, he stormed up towards Fat Tony's gang and Michael and Popple's groups)
Male scientist 1: Get out! Get out!
(The lead dark-looking figure snatched Bartok up roughly as Pikachu, Meowth, Mephiles, Fat Tony's gang, and Michael and Popple's groups spoke up quickly, with Mephiles' being more annoyed and calm than nervous)
Fat Tony's gang: Whoa, whoa, take it easy!
Popple and Michael's groups: It's just us!
Mephiles: Get a grip, Rasputin, guys.
(Suddenly, the dark-looking figure, now revealed to be Rasputin, upon hearing them say that, calmed down with the other figures, now revealed to be his army in the form of his army, consisting, by the introductions above, Infinite, Antasma, Negaduck, Splatter Phoenix, Taurus Bulba, Doctors Neo Cortex, Nitros Brio, Nitros Gin, and Nefarious Tropy, Uka-Uka, Nitros Oxide, Ripper Roo, Koala Kong, Pinstripe Potoroo, the Komodo Brothers Joe and Moe, Rilla Roo, Cackletta, Fawful, Shredder, Krang, Bebop, and Rocksteady, respectively)
Rasputin: (Releasing his tight grip on Bartok) Wait, Bartok?
Uka-Uka: Is it really you, as well as Fat Tony's gang and Popple and Michael's groups?
Negaduck: And Pipsqueakchu and Meowth?
(Bartok slid from Rasputin's hand, gasping for air for a bit, and landed with a splat on the table. He looked up to see Rasputin and his army)
Bartok: Well, yeah, it's us.
Meowth: And, once again, for the record, (Gestures to Pikachu) he's Pikachu, not Pipsqueakchu.
Pikachu: (Nods in calm annoyance) Pika.
Calves: And you suppose you're wondering why we came here?
Tropy: Why, no, not yet.
Rasputin: In a manner of speaking!
(On "Speaking," Rasputin's right eye popped out of it's socket, but Mephiles caught it, with Fat Tony's gang and Michael and Popple's groups, Pikachu, and Meowth looking somewhat disgusted)
Louie: Whoa! That fell right out there.
(Rasputin gently plucked his eye away from Mephiles, stuck it back in his socket, and then smacked the side of his head to make sure his eye stayed in)
Cackletta: From what we sensed, something's happened!
Rasputin: My army and I knew it! I can feel the dark forces stirring!
Michael: Well, this may come as a surprise, but, uh....
Regina: You remember Queen Mary, the way she banished you and your army here?
(Calmly seething with rage remembering her, Rasputin and his army responded with tranquil fury)
Bulba: Why, yes.
Splatter Phoenix: How can we forget her?
Ace: Well, you ever heard of the term, "Apples never fall far from the tree?"
Uka-Uka: What nonsensical old sayings are you talking about?
Mephiles: (Cutting Ace off rudely) He's saying that Mary's children are here.
Ace: (Agreeing nonchalantly) Along with their friends.
Rasputin: (Frowning in suspicion) Mary's children, here?
(On "Here?", Rasputin's lips slid off down on his beard, much to everyone's notice)
Ripper: Uh, Master, your lips.
Rilla: They're sliding down....
Rasputin: Those brats of the queen?!
Bartok: (Casually) Ain't that a kick in the head?
Johnny: (Casually while Rasputin reattached his lips to his face again) Eh, I guess your conquest plans with our treasoned comrade just ain't what it used to be with them here now.
Popple: Along with their friends.
Rasputin: Which is exactly why my army and I are stuck here in limbo, waiting to attack!
(Rasputin then grabbed Bartok with his left hand)
Bartok: (Choking a bit) Rasputin, sir, you're choking me again.
Rasputin: (Ignoring Bartok) My conquest with our treasoned comrade will be unfulfilled because of those brats!
(On "Brats," he threw his arms open in anguish and his right hand still holding Bartok came flying off and smacked into the wall. Bartok gasped a bit as he hit it and the hand released him. Noticing Rasputin's hand, everyone pointed it out to Rasputin)
Johnny: Uh, Rasputin...?
Louie Jr.: Your hand.
(Upon noticing, Rasputin then grabbed his handless wrist with his other hand, sinking down to the ground in immediate despair)
Rasputin: And now look at me! Thanks to my immortality contract I made to get these powers from the Devil due to all of this waiting, I'm falling apart!
(Then he sobbed for a bit)
Rasputin: (Flopping onto a nearby flat rock) I'm a wreck!
Krang: (In annoyance) Oh, grow up!
(Bartok hurried over to him, carrying the hand)
Bebop: Actually, (Snorts) considering how long we've been stuck here....
Rocksteady: Ooh, you still look pretty good!
Rasputin: (Sobs a bit, dismissively) Nah.
Shredder: Oh, relax! You still do look good!
Krang: Like I said, grow a backbone.
Rasputin: (Sitting up hopefully) Really?
Bartok: (Giving the puppy dog eyes) Rasp, is this the face of a bat who would lie to you?
(Then Bartok leaned on the hand, his chin in his hands, changing the subject)
Bartok: Come on, it's not that bad.
Pinstripe: Yeah, for a minute there, you had your old spark back, Sir.
(Rasputin, all cheered up a bit, clutched his handless arm and frowned in anger)
Rasputin: But if only I hadn't lost that very key.
N. Gin: Even if we have to search high and low in every nook and cranny of the Four Realms to find it.
Meowth: (Nonchalantly pulling the key out) Wait, you mean this key?
(Rasputin and his army's eyes widened)
Komodo Joe: What the...?!
Komodo Moe: The key's here now?!
Rasputin: Where did you get that?!
Meowth: (While Pikachu nods in agreement) Oh, Pikachu and I found it in the Christmas Tree Forest....
Rasputin: (Snatching some bugs from the ground with his reliquary, giving an evil smirk) Then that beats searching for it!
Bartok: (Avoiding Rasputin's hand, avoiding getting grabbed again) All right, all right, don't get so grabby there!
(Rasputin then reattached his right hand and put the reliquary to his cheek)
Rasputin: My old friend, our conquest coming to life again.
(He laughs evilly and triumphantly a bit, and then raised his reliquary into the air after squishing some bugs all over it to cast a spell onto it)
Mephiles: (Agreeing) Indeed, Master.
(Then he transformed into another form. He is now a ghostly male hedgehog with a black crystallized body, red eyes, green snake-like pupils, a deep, demonic voice, and no nose, mouth, and feet That is his true form)
Rasputin: And now my dark purpose will be fulfilled, and with the rightful rulers of the Four Realms and their allies dead, we shall rule!
(Then after he and his army lets out a brief evil laugh, a bolt of green lightning emanated from the reliquary, startling Pikachu, Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups. Then Rasputin and his army began singing)
Rasputin: In the dark of the night
I was tossing and turning
(His army, except a nervous Popple's group and nonchalant look-giving Pikachu, Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, and Michael's group, smirked evilly in agreement as some more bugs appeared)
Negaduck: And the nightmare he had
Was as bad as can be
(Bushroot and Bartok were about to speak when Rasputin’s army and the bugs glared daggers at them, making them quiet. Then Rasputin broke into pieces like a skeleton)
Rasputin: It scared me out of my wits
A corpse falling to bits
Then I opened my eyes
And the nightmare was
Rasputin and his army: Me (Him)
Bulba: Tell them!
(After reassembling again, Rasputin placed his reliquary onto the table as Splatter Phoenix sang)
Splatter Phoenix: We were once
The most mystical guys in all of the Four Realms
(Rasputin's army and the bugs vocalized a bit)
Antasma: When the royals betrayed us
They made a mistake
(Rasputin's army and the bugs vocalized a bit again as Rasputin conjured an image of Dorothy’s group walking around the Four Realms Castle happily with their new friends. Mostly on Dorothy and her siblings)
Cackletta: Our conquest will make them pay
Cortex: But three little girls will get in the way
Rasputin: Children of Mary, beware
Rasputin and his army's awake
(After the image vanished, Rasputin's army and the bugs are the only ones who started singing as Fawful swung Bartok back and forth)
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
Evil will find them
In the dark of the night
Just before dawn
Rasputin: Revenge will be sweet
Rasputin, his army, and bugs: When the conquest is complete
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
Rasputin: They'll be dead
(While Fawful threw Bartok down onto the ground roughly, some female bugs vocalized a bit)
Mephiles: We can feel our powers
Are slowly returning
(Bartok tried to get up quickly, but a nearby big-jawed bug almost bites him into making him get up)
Rasputin: Tie my sash and a dash of cologne
For that smell
(Pinstripe then placed a dark red brown wig that resembles Dorothy's hair on Rasputin and Bartok quickly and nervously sprayed a bottle of cologne at him as he pretended to brush his “Hair.” After that’s done, Rasputin took the little statue figurines of Dorothy, Alice, Wendy, John, Michael, Rarity, and Cody)
Rasputin: As the pieces fall into place
We'll see her and her siblings crawl into place
(On “Place,” he crushed the figurines to pieces as he removed the wig from his head)
Rasputin: Do Svidaniya, you're graces
Rasputin and his army: Farewell
(They then march down the stairs to the lower level as they continue to sing, all except Pikachu, Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups)
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
Terror will strike them
Infinite: Terror's the least we can do
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
Evil will brew
(Rasputin yanks some bugs up to him, as if to cradle them)
Rasputin, his army, and bugs: Soon they will feel
Rasputin: That their nightmares are real
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
Rasputin, his army, and bugs: They'll be through
(On “Through,” Rasputin throws the bugs he held onto the steps and walked on him like a rug, crushing them to death as the song continued)
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
Evil will find them
Big-jawed bug: Find them
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
Terror comes through
(Fawful, while still singing, noticed some bugs crawling on Rasputin's reliquary and just flicked them off in annoyance)
Big-jawed bug: Doom them
(At the lower level, Rasputin placed his reliquary in the center)
Rasputin: My dears, here's a sign
Rasputin, his army, and bugs: It's the end of the line
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
In the dark of the night
(Rasputin activated his reliquary and powered up his army while Pikachu, Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups stepped back)
Rasputin: Come, my minions
Rise for your master
Negaduck: Let your evil shine
Rasputin's army and bugs except Negaduck: In the dark of the night
Rasputin: Prepare for battle now
Yes, fight ever faster
(The bugs then charged ahead into their tunnels as the power up finished, knocking Bartok aside)
Rasputin's army and bugs: In the dark of the night
In the dark of the night
In the dark of the night
Rasputin and his army: They'll be dead
(The song over, the villains teleported themselves, Pikachu, Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups back to the forest in the Fourth Realm. Once all is calm, Rasputin turned to Pikachu, Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups)
Rasputin: Now, as you were.
Rasputin's army except Rasputin: Yeah.
Fat Tony's gang: (Casually) Of course.
Popple's group: (Casually) Back to the castle.
Michael's group: (Casually) Yep.
Meowth: (Casually) While Pikachu and I go back to Hardscrabble's group.
Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, Popple and Michael's groups, and Pikachu: (Casually) Bye. (Pikachu.)
(Then after Rasputin and his army vanished back into their hideout, Pikachu, Meowth, Fat Tony's gang, and Popple and Michael's groups, once all alone, then gave calm determined looks and then ran off deep into the forest to do something. Back at the Four Realms Castle, it is night by now as Dorothy, Davis, and Laylamon's groups walked through the hallways, having finished showing Dorothy's group the rest of the castle)
Wendy: We are definitely loving this world even more.
Rarity: Really enchanted in our taste.
Davis and Laylamon's groups: Thank you.
Tink: We're really glad you're enjoying yourselves.
Veemon: Considering that you still have plenty of time before you return home to your world.
Dorothy's group: Of course.
(Then Dorothy changed the subject)
Dorothy: Laylamon?
Laylamon: Yes?
Dorothy: You said earlier that you hope that me and my siblings and friends would finish the war.
Laylamon: Of course.
Alice: Yet what did you mean by that?
(Glad to have heard Alice ask that, Laylamon gently took Dorothy's hand)
Laylamon: Come, we'll show you.
(Then just when they proceeded, Fat Tony's gang and Popple and Michael's groups arrived, panting a bit)
Hercules: What's going on?
Fat Tony: (Panting a bit) Let us catch our breath first.
Louie: (Panting a bit) We did a lot of running just now.
Megavolt: (Panting a bit) For our lives.
(Then once composed, Megavolt explained away in panicked tone)
Megavolt: Bad news! Hardscrabble's group, the mouse-like Pokemon, and cat-like Pokemon are planning to invade the castle with Rasputin and his army tomorrow!
Fat Tony: (Smacking the back of Megavolt's head to calm him) Get a grip, Sparky.
Megavolt: (Rubbing the back of his head, calming down) Yeah, sorry. (In annoyance) And don't call me "Sparky!"
(Then they resumed business)
Megara: You're saying the invasion's happening tomorrow?
Popple's group: Yes!
Hercules: But where's Mephiles?
Legs: He stayed behind to distract the enemy and got captured.
(After comprehending, Laylamon then turned to Dorothy's group)
Laylamon: Then we definitely should show you even more.
Fat Tony's gang: As for us and Popple and Michael's groups, we're gonna go rest for a bit.
Popple and Michael's group: (Agreeing) We've been through a lot today.
Laylamon: (Nods) As you were.
(Then with that, Fat Tony's gang and Popple and Michael's groups, including the rest of Popple's group that stayed behind originally, left. Then Davis and Laylamon's groups, leading Dorothy's group, walked down a spiral staircase to a huge chamber that resembles that of a ginormous workshop complete with a giant engine-looking device and a giant watermill run by the water in the castle's waterways)
Laylamon: All these weeks, Queen Mary kept Hardscrabble's group in line, but now that she's gone and with Mephiles captured, we're completely defenseless.
Dorothy and her siblings: "Defenseless?"
Mane Eight's group: What do you mean?
Laylamon: You see, we were once lifeless toys.
Megara: In other words, mere playthings for kids.
Cody: You were obviously once toys?
John: Then how are you alive suddenly?
Laylamon: Well, when your mother arrived, everything changed for us when the Four Realms were founded.
Arthur/Wart: She gave us life.
John: Again, how?
(Laylamon gently released Dorothy's hand and gestures to the engine-like device)
Laylamon: With this.
Hercules: This is called the Engine.
(Dorothy's group looked at the Engine in amazement)
Dorothy: Me and my siblings' mother invented this when she founded the Four Realms?
Davis and Laylamon's group: Yes.
Tink: The Engine made us real.
Laylamon: And because of it, we now have feelings, just like you humans have. Happiness....
Davis: Sadness....
Megara: Anger....
Peter: Even fear.
Hercules: And most importantly, love, just like you humans like Laylamon said.
Veemon: And about fear, there's plenty of that going around.
Hercules: You make a good point, Veemon.
Laylamon: And as Fat Tony's gang and Popple and Michael's groups just warned us, Hardscrabble's group is now on the warpath, gathering all their forces. But luckily, the Engine is the only way that we can build an army to defend ourselves.
Megara: (Giving the tiny gesture with her fingers) But there's one eensy-teensy problem.
Laylamon: The Engine isn't working now. And if we can't get it to work again, then all is lost.
(As Laylamon said it, she walked up to a nearby stand where the controls to the Engine rested. Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy had an idea)
Wendy: Perhaps my sisters and I can fix it.
(Toto, Dinah, Nana, and Cookie happily barked, meowed, and squeaked a bit in agreement)
Michael: (Proudly pointing at Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy) They are, after all, the tinkers.
Tink: (Shrugs casually) Besides me. I can also help.
Laylamon: Oh, no, it's not broken.
John: (Confused) But you just said....
Laylamon: (Cutting him off politely) We're just simply missing the key.
(Hearing Laylamon say that, Dorothy's group got curious while they, Megara, and Hercules walked up to the controls next to Laylamon)
Dorothy's group: "Key?"
Laylamon: Yes, the key.
Tink: (Realizing in agreement) Oh, yeah, that's right. I forgot.
Laylamon: (Points at the pile of broken rusty keys nearby) And yet we searched high and low and every nook and cranny around the kingdom, but nothing yet.
Twilight Sparkle: (Ponders a bit, then to Dorothy) Hmm, Dorothy, it appears that your mother must've taken the key with her when she left this world.
Megara: And apparently, she never returned with it.
(Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy studied the control's keyhole cover and after sliding it open, they noticed a familiar-looking keyhole shape)
Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy: A pin tumbler keyhole.
(Hearing them say that, Dorothy's group got confused)
Dorothy's group except Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy: (Confused) What?
(Dorothy pulled out her egg-shaped box from her gown pocket and compared the pin tumbler keyhole to the Engine's control's pin tumbler keyhole. Seeing this, everyone else, along with even Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy, got amazed and calmly happy altogether)
Alice: Well, what do you know?
Wendy: Ironically, this egg-shaped box was a Christmas present our mother left us.
Dorothy: And the keyholes match.
Fluttershy: Then that means the same key can work on both of them.
Laylamon: But this same key you mention, where is it?
(Remembering, Dorothy's group answered)
Dorothy: The mouse-like Pokemon and cat-like Pokemon led by Pikachu and Meowth took it in the Christmas Tree Forest.
Alice: That was what we were looking for when we first arrived here.
(Laylamon got calmly shocked)
Laylamon: Is this true?
Arthur/Wart: It's true.
Megara: (Agreeing) Then that means that Hardscrabble's group has it.
Laylamon: (To herself) That can't be good. (To Dorothy's group) Then we can't make our army and we'll be annihilated.
Wendy: (Getting calmly determined with Dorothy's group) Unless we can bring the key back while we go rescue Mephiles.
Davis' group, Megara, and Hercules: (Calmly surprised) Get it back and rescue Mephiles?
Dorothy: (Agreeing) My siblings, friends, and I can go to the Fourth Realm and get them.
Hercules: But it could be dangerous.
Dorothy: We came here to find mine, Alice, and Wendy's key.
Davis: But what if something bad were to happen to you?
(Dorothy's group walked down from the stand and approached Davis' group reassuringly)
Dorothy: Then this must be why me and my siblings' mother sent us here.
Alice and Wendy: She's right.
Rarity: And besides, we can't let Hardscrabble's group destroy everything she created.
Cody and Mane Eight's group: Along with you guys.
Arthur/Wart: We understand, but we were lucky to escape with our lives the last time.
Davis: Hardscrabble's group's more dangerous than you know.
Peter: Or so we were told.
Wendy: It doesn't matter how dangerous she and her group are.
Dorothy: We must get that key and rescue Mephiles.
Alice: And that is definitely an order.
Laylamon: They're right.
(They turned to Laylamon)
Laylamon: Even if that mission will be dangerous, rest assured that Dorothy and her siblings, mostly Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy, are really clever to get out of messes like that.
Dorothy: See? Even Laylamon agrees.
(After contemplating a bit, Davis' group, Megara, and Hercules finally gave in)
Megara: If that key means everything to you like it does us.... Then okay.
Hercules: We're in as well.
Davis' group: Yeah.
Dorothy's group: Thank you.
Laylamon: Then it's settled. Tomorrow morning, you're going to the Fourth Realm for the search and rescue mission.
(Then with that, they all left the Engine Chamber to go to bed. Later in the castle's royal master bedroom, Dorothy's group is asleep in their beds, all dressed in pajamas. Dorothy is now wearing a blue sleeveless nightgown with her hair down and blue sleep slippers. Alice is now wearing a royal blue long-sleeved nightgown, black sleep slippers, and no hairband.

Party Favor is now wearing a purple short-sleeved pajama shirt with baby blue neck and sleeve rims, purple long pajama pants with baby blue ankle rims, and white sleep slippers. And Cody is now wearing a red short-sleeved pajama shirt, red long pajama pants, and brown sleep slippers. Outside nearby, Noctowl flew around silently, checking on them. In the room, while they slept, Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy soon had a memory from two weeks ago when their mother, Mary, was alive, setting up their unfinished Christmas tree. Mary herself is a woman with short light brown hair in an updo, blue eyes, pink lips, and wearing a pink sleeveless dress with a pale pink frilly neck rim, a pale pink sash around her waist, and pale pink frills at the end off her dress, a light blue stone necklace on a black string, and pink shoes. Dorothy then found a nutcracker ornament and showed it to Mary proudly along with Alice and Wendy)
Mary: (Impressed) You found him.
Dorothy: Well, he's your favorite, isn't he?
Mary: (Nods, accepting the nutcracker ornament from Dorothy) Well, we can't have a Christmas without the nutcracker.
Alice: Mother, where did you get this nutcracker ornament?
Mary: Well, I found him at Mr. Wizard's.
(Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy walked over to the Christmas tree to put some ornaments on as Mary continued)
Mary: In fact, this nutcracker reminds me of a land I discovered when I was a little girl.
(Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy turned to her in curiosity as Mary continued)
Mary: It was full of sweets, snowflakes, flowers, and the funniest people and animals.
(Interested, Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy spoke up)
Wendy: That sounds wonderful.
Mary: (Nods with a soft smile) It was. Maybe you three will go there too one day.
Alice: Or maybe you can take us there.
Dorothy: And once there, we can have fun together.
(Hearing them say that, Mary slowly and calmly became sad and then sat down on a nearby chair, gently feeling her stomach. Noticing that, Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy got confused and calmly concerned)
Dorothy: Are you alright, Mother?
(The three walked over to her and sat beside her)
Alice: Do you need any medicine for your stomach?
Mary: (Reassuringly with a sad smile) No, I'm fine. I'd really love to take you, dears. But there are some journeys you have to go alone.
Wendy: "Alone?"
Mary: Girls, I know you sometimes wish you were more like Rarity. But I love you because you three are so different. And you see the world in a unique way. When you realize that's your greatest strength, you can change the world, my girls. And I'll be watching you and your sister and brothers.
Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy: (Smiling softly) Even our friends?
Mary: (Nods) Especially your friends.
(They smiled calmly. Then Mary changed the subject, handing the nutcracker ornament to Dorothy)
Mary: Now, where are you going to put him?
Dorothy: (Getting up cheerfully with Alice and Wendy) Easy.
(The three girls walked over to the Christmas tree and Dorothy placed the nutcracker ornament on the front of the Christmas tree on a top empty branch. Mary smiled softly)
Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy: What do you think?
Mary: (Nods in approval) It's perfect.
(Back in the present as the memory ended, Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy each shed a single tear in their sleep. Then, a brief soft tapping was heard outside their window, waking them and Dorothy's group up slowly)
Applejack: (Sleepily) What is that?
(They looked at the window, and saw it was Noctowl. They get up and walked up to the rooftop of their room via the secret staircase. In the room standing guard, Popple's group, who is still awake and still dressed since they're on patrol, noticed Dorothy's group awake and going upstairs and got confused. Up on the rooftop, Dorothy's group looked around a beautiful view of the Four Realms at nighttime as Noctowl met up with them)
Dorothy: (Smiling sadly and calmly) Oh, Mother, it's so beautiful here.
(Then they looked at the view of the Fourth Realm as Dorothy picked Toto up, Alice picked Dinah up, and Wendy lets Cookie stand on her left shoulder, slowly becoming calmly sad, much to Dorothy's group notice)
Dorothy: Yet I don't know if we can get the key back.
Alice: And if we fail, this whole world you discovered and created....
(They couldn't bear to finish that grave saying, as they grew calmly sad even more)
Wendy: I wish you were here.
Dorothy: So you can tell us that we're doing the right thing like you used to before.
(Then while Popple's group, having overheard it all in confusion, arrived silently, they, Dorothy's group, and Noctowl noticed a shooting star shoot by in the night sky, resulting Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy to nod, feeling somewhat reassured. Then Noctowl gave a soft hoot to Dorothy's group and then flew away as Dorothy and Popple's groups watched him fly away)
Dorothy's group: Thank you.
Popple's group: (Speaking up in confusion) For what?
(Hearing them, Dorothy's group turned to them and saw them approach in confusion)
Bushroot: What do you mean "Thank you" and that you wished Queen Mary was here?
(Noticing their confused reaction, Dorothy's group got confused in return)
Fluttershy: You didn't know yet?
Ace: Know yet on what?
Adagio: What's going on?
(Realizing that Popple's group didn't know of Mary's death yet, Dorothy's group knew they have to tell them. Then Dorothy confessed)
Dorothy: Me and my siblings' mother died two weeks ago by cancer back in our world.
(Hearing her say that, Popple's group reacted calmly in shock at these news, as if it were some hammers hitting them in their own chests)
Popple's group: (Calmly shocked) She didn't.
Dorothy's group: (Nods grimly) She did.
Rarity: We're going through this situation, yet....
(She and the rest of Dorothy's group looked at Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy in calm sympathy, and Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy just silently and calmly hung their heads in sadness)
Alice: We just don't know if she's here or not in death.
Dorothy: That's the hard part.
(Then while Popple's group got calmly sympathetic, slowly melting their sadness away to reassuring looks, Popple, Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot, on the other hand, remained calmly sad, as if about to calmly cry as they sadly panted softly)
Popple: (In calm sadness) Oh, no.... We had no idea....
(Noticing Popple, Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot's calm sadness, everyone else watched silently)
Popple: (Tearing up slowly with Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot, voice starting to break) How could you or anybody else have not told us that earlier?
Snake: (Voice breaking) She wasssss like our sssisssster.
Megavolt: (Voice breaking) Let alone our mother figure.
Quackerjack: (Sobs, crying calmly) Besides our queen.
Bushroot: (Crying calmly) Now it's no wonder you were just saying those things, especially when you plan of going to the Fourth Realm tomorrow.
(The five broke down crying calmly as they pulled their own handkerchiefs out, a pale purple one for Popple, a light blue one for Snake, a light green one for Megavolt, a mint green one for Quackerjack, and a green leaf handkerchief for Bushroot. Seeing this, Dorothy's group and the rest of Popple's group tried to reassure them)
Ace: (Soothingly) Hey, hey, just because she kicked the bucket doesn't mean she's gone.
Fluttershy: (Soothingly) You just got to learn to move on.
Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy: (Soothingly with a shrug) No matter how hard it is.
Dorothy and Popple's groups except Dorothy, Alice, Wendy, Fluttershy, Popple, Ace, Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot: (Soothingly) Yeah.
(Popple, Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot stopped crying calmly for a brief moment upon hearing them say that, and then they cried some more and blew their noses in their own handkerchiefs. Seeing the five still upset while Dorothy and Popple's groups felt calmly sad and guilty for making them cry even more, the female Mobians and Mane Eight got calmly determined and spoke up reassuringly again)
Mane Eight and female Mobians: (Softly, getting Popple, Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot's attention) Hey.
(Hearing them, Popple, Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot calmly eased their crying down to listen. Even the rest of Dorothy and Popple's groups stayed quiet to listen. Then the Mane Eight and female Mobians started singing)
Twilight Sparkle: Do you ever lie
Awake at night?
Rainbow Dash: Just between the dark
Applejack: And the morning light
Fluttershy: Searching for the things
You used to know
Rarity: Looking for the place
Where the lost things go
Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist: Do you ever dream
Pinkie Pie: Or reminisce?
Sunset Shimmer: Wondering where to find
What you truly miss
Amy: Well, maybe all those things
That you love so
Cream: Are waiting in the place
Where the lost things go
Cosmo: Memories you've shared
Tikal: Gone for good you feared
Rouge: They're all around you still
Though they've....
(She struggled to think up a right word, but then....)
Blaze: (Finishes for Rouge, which she lets her gladly) Disappeared
Rouge: Nothing's really left
Kayla: Or lost without a trace
Cream: Nothing's gone forever
Only out....
Rarity: (Finishes for Cream, which she lets her gladly) Of place
Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist: (Pulling out a china dish and spoon) So maybe now the dish
And my best spoon
(She then performed a magic trick to make them vanish into thin air)
Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist: Are playing hide and seek
Just behind the moon
Rainbow Dash: Waiting there until
It's time to show
(On "Show," Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist then gently pulled the dish and spoon out from behind Dorothy's head, exposing them again)
Fluttershy: Spring is like that at times
Before and after the snow
Female Mobians: Hiding in the place
Where the lost things go
(Silence, then Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy became calmly touched and sleepy at the same time. Even Popple, the Gangreen Gang, Dazzlings, and Fearsome Four smiled calmly and silently, shedding a couple of tears, apparently touched by this)
Twilight Sparkle: (While Popple, Snake, the Gangreen Gang, Dazzlings, and Fearsome Four compose themselves, wiping their tears away) Time to close our eyes
So sleep can come around
Amy, Cosmo, and Tikal: For when you dream you'll find
All that's lost is found
Mane Eight: Maybe on the moon
Or maybe somewhere new
Blaze, Cream, and Kayla: Maybe all you're missing lives inside of you
Mane Eight and female Mobians: So when you need her touch
And loving gaze
Gone, but not forgotten
Is the perfect phrase
Smiling from a star
That she makes glow
Trust she's always there
Watching as you grow
Find her in the place
Where the lost things go
(The song over, Dorothy and Popple's groups felt at ease silently. Then after Popple, Snake, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and Bushroot puts their handkerchiefs and leaf handkerchief away, all better with the Dazzlings, Ace, Arturo, Billy, and Grubber by now, they returned to the bedroom from the rooftop down the stairs and climbed into their beds while Popple's group head out to prepare to go to bed as well)
Alice: Thank you, girls.
Popple, Snake, Gangreen Gang, Dazzlings, and Fearsome Four: Yeah, (Yesssss,) thanks. (thanksssss.)
Wendy: I know she would want us to accomplish our mission tomorrow.
Mane Eight and female Mobians: (Nods with a soft smile) Exactly.
Dorothy: Well, good night, everyone. We got a big day ahead of us.
Dorothy and Popple's groups: (Nods) Right. Good night.
(Then with that, they went to sleep peacefully, to be prepared for their upcoming mission for the Fourth Realm for the stolen key tomorrow)
Coming up: Upon their return to the Fourth Realm the next morning, Dorothy and Davis' groups and their allies have a brief encounter with Rasputin and his army, and then upon losing them, they then end up having Dorothy's group get temporally snatched away by the mouse-like Pokemon and cat-like Pokemon to Hardscrabble's group, where Dorothy's group, along with Davis' group and their allies who rescue them, learn more about Fat Tony's gang and Michael and Popple's groups' involvement with Hardscrabble's group while they get Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy's key back from them, and upon escaping, Dorothy's group would soon learn what Dorothy's group's egg-shaped box really is.
