## Plot

### Part 1

At the Sugarcube Café, the Ninja and the Mane Six were researching about where the potion supply has come from, and Zane realised that most of them are actually chemicals that sometimes poisoned in our body. Lloyd wondered how Pinkie Pie met her potion mentor, Princess Okashi, who is working for Unagami after she got kicked out of the School of Alchemy. When Jay finds out that the potions were fully restocked by a mysterious pony, they find out who investigates. Nya then spots some beautiful luminous mushrooms and plants, but all have been realized that it was an illusion.

While at the Monastery, the Ninja and the Mane Six went to a special lab under the Underground Base. They were fascinated about all the potions, chemicals and some biology and chemistry equipment needed in the lab. Moments later, they then all saw the luminous mushrooms and plants that Nya saw earlier, but then it got disappeared. The Ninja and the Mane Six got surrounded by the Rainbow light, and she magically poofs into a Unicorn pony with a pink mane, white coat and a potion bottle cutie mark. She introduces herself as a potion maker named Potion Nova and reveals she is the one who restocks Pinkie's fridge with potions every night, and also refill most of the potions in the Candy Empire and the other realms. She told them that the magical teas that Mistaké made is actually potions, with some blends of ingredients needed to mix.

Lloyd then realized that Potion Nova is the potion maker, and she makes assistance with Chamuco to teach students learn how to make potions. Twilight Sparkle asked Potion Nova if she can be the apprentice, and the other Mane Six and the Ninja really want them to be as well. Potion Nova then started teaching them their first Alchemy lesson.

### Part 2

The Ninja and the Mane Six were having their very first lesson at the underground laboratory. She tells the Ninja that they can't make potions without a special suit, so she uses some magic on the Ninja to transform into their Alchemy suits. The Ninja were fascinated wearing the Alchemy suits, and Potion Nova tells them to show the basic ingredient needed, the Rainbow Water from the magical ocean in Equestria. She demonstrates how to make a potion using the Rainbow Water, by adding some ingredients in the potion, then mixed them together and finally a potion was made. She called it the Sweet Scenting Potion, and the Ninja and the Mane Six loved the scent of the potion. Potion Nova then asked them to be creative with the potions, and they must master some Alchemy skills applied.

The Ninja and the Mane Six make some craziest potions they made, from the Floating Potion to the Super Speed Mix, every time the Ninja has mastered Alchemy skills, an Elemental symbol below the chest appears as a signal. Jay, however, thought that mastering alchemy skills is very difficult. Pinkie Pie then asked Jay with some encouragement to make a perfect potion. Jay decided to use some ingredients into a Rainbow Water and mixed together to form a Luminous Planting Potion, and Jay finally mastered his alchemy skills. Twilight Sparkle tells Potion Nova that making some simple potions is very hard, but if we learn from our mistakes, they can know how to master it. The Ninja, the Mane Six and Potion Nova were enjoying making craziest potions for a day, calling off their first Alchemy lesson.
