== Plot ==
In a desert somewhere outside Ponyville, Vinyl Scratch faces off against Sid Megabus, who demands that she and her friends will bow down to him, and claims to dominate the world. She throws her sword at Sid Megabus, killing him. Rainbow Dash compliments her throwing skills, which she replied that she developed them from years of throwing shapes in a club. Twilight Sparkle tells them and the others to come back to the Golden Oaks Library to prepare for Halloween.
Later into the night, Twilight and her friends wear their costumes, and make fun of Rarity for her cat costume by asking whether is she a furry. After Vinyl Scratch arrives with her own handmade costume, they go out for trick-o-treating. Meanwhile, Sid Megabus peers at them from behind a bush.
Twilight's group splits up, and after 10 minutes, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, and Vinyl Scratch visit Discord's house, and receives candy, Twilight rings on another doorbell, but still does not get any response. They notice Brad running away and screaming. Twilight and Pinkie Pie meet Rarity and Vinyl Scratch, and as they turn around, they saw someone come down from the roof of a house, and approach them: it was the same Sid Megabus that they had encountered on the evening, but he is now an undead monstrosity.
When Rarity and Vinyl Scratch ask Sid Megabus on his current condition, Sid replies that he has traded his soul in exchange for endless power. When Twilight asks him about his desire for global domination, Sid replies that his quest for power began when he set up his bus company, fueled by his customers' dismissive attitude towards him. As Celestia died during the War of the Gods and Queen Chrysalis' disguise had been blown, Twilight and her friends were the only people who keep Equestria in line, standing in his quest for power. After Vinyl killed the Grim Reaper (and eliminated another threat to his plans), he showed himself to fight them, but was killed when Vinyl threw her sword at him. Nonetheless he encountered a potted plant with red flowers who offered to "change his afterlife forever", so he traded his immortal soul for power.
Now, as Twilight's group left their weapons at home, and some of them are immobilized in their costumes, Sid Megabus considers this as an ideal opportunity to kill them. Vinyl Scratch prepares to fight him with her costume's weaponry, but Sid has become too strong for her sword to cut him. Sid summons several buses to crush Vinyl, but she cuts some of them before they can hit her. She continues fighting Sid with her sword, but Sid's swords cut her blade in half.
Sid slowly approaches Vinyl, but Vinyl taunts him and fires a laser right into Sid's heart, knocking him to the ground. Vinyl slays the confounded Sid Megabus by firing her muzzle into his head. As the group returns home, Rainbow Dash and Rarity argue, and Applejack laments that she only exists for the sake of making apple-related jokes. Spike remarks that she will never be a piece of bacon, and Twilight tells him to keep himself quiet.
In a post-credits scene, Sid Megabus is seen playing "We Are Number One" on a piano.
