Out goes Briar Beauty yelling to open the gates to the Crystal Empire and the main gates open, only to find Ella Sofie, Shining Armor and their daughter Flurry Heart. Shining orders his guards to attack Briar using snowballs, but nothing scares her out since she's too tall and too powerful. Her guards and minions abduct Ella and Flurry, murder Shining Armor and throw them into a dark underground, so Shining Armor is dead and both Ella and Flurry are dethroned from the Crystal Empire for good.

Fade to the modern day human world, more specifically at the Mane 10's house, the Mane 8 (Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle) are gathering at the backyard behind the house to say goodbye to both Sebastian and Gordon after spending 30 years in the Rainbooms as announced by Cooper and Prudence. A heartbroken Mane 8 started to cry in tears and hug together as the two brothers began to leave, so Fluttershy gives Sebastian and golden locket shaped in an oval showing the picture of Sebastian and Gordon with the 8 women together. A sympathetic Sebastian claims that he does not need the locker but treasure it instead. Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and Sunset Shimmer hugs Gordon as well, commencing their final goodbye. After the two brothers left, Cooper and Prudence comes in and he introduces the Rainbooms to a group of new members: Greg, his little brother and the newest man of the group: Hacky Zak.

After Cooper and Prudence left, Greg and Hacky are surrounded by an ocean of women until the Mane 8 introduce themselves. A confused Hacky Zak thinks that the Mane 8 are doctors and nurses at a hospital because they have their gloves and masks on, but no. Instead, they try to emulate Norwegian DJ music producer Alan Walker, much to Greg's joy. Applejack welcomes Greg and Hacky to the Rainbooms and enters the house afterwards.

Eventually, it's a letter scroll written by Nathellie Ballerie warning the 5 pals that a sinister woman named Briar Beauty has invaded the Crystal Empire, murdered Shining Armor and overthrow the royal family away, much to their shock. Her action to invade the kingdom has resulted in Flurry Heart leaving the empire and not return again until she gets stranded out of nowhere.

An excited Greg shouts at Hacky that he, Cooper, Penny, Prudence and Alberto fights the evil Boswell who trespasses the land and sleeps in a Cadillac Escalade V, leaving behind a confused Hacky. When Hacky Zak asks Sunset about the mysterious woman with black hair, black hoodie jacket with orange knots, black sneakers with orange laces and a weird name that starts with the letter N that he does not understand and never heard before, an open-minded Sunset Shimmer realizes that the woman Hacky is thinking happens to be Nahwan Nafisah. Given the fact that Hacky Zak hasn't heard the name Nahwan Nafisah before, Applejack explains that Nahwan Nafisah is a female human daredevil, now based in Canterlot, Equestria.

Nadhirah opens up the power liftgate on her E63 S T-Modell and Flurry goes into the cargo area. Afterwards, she closes the liftgate and the 6 of them depart for Ponyville.

On the way to Ponyville, a relieved Flurry Heart is thankful to have human beings rescuing her until the 6 pals introduce themselves. When Hope asks Flurry how she ended up lying dead on the ground, she explains that Briar Beauty invaded the Crystal Empire, murdered her father and abducted her stepmother, leaving behind a shocked Amy, Elle, Hope, Nadhirah and Steven considering both kidnapping and murder cases at the same time. However, none of them know Briar Beauty except for Nadhirah herself, in which she used to be in the same school to Briar when her big sister used to be Ever After High's counsellor 63 years ago. Flurry insists to invite Amy, Elle, Hope, Nadhirah and Steven to visit her aunt's funeral, much to their agreement.

A sympathetic Amy, Elle, Hope, Nadhirah and Steven started to hug Flurry softly after she mourns the death of both her parents and her aunt. When Amy asks Flurry that she is the daughter of Princess Mi Amore Cadenza or Cadance and Shining Armor, Flurry is confident with Amy's question. Also, Flurry also adds that she gets a stepmother from now on after her old mother died, leaving behind a horrified Steven realizing that stepmothers are so evil, cruel, sinister looking, vain, mean and always threaten a victim at all times, reminding him of the Cinderella fairytale. Flurry insists that evil, cruel, sinister looking, vain, mean and life threatening stepmother is no doubt to her, but not in the case of herself. Instead, some stepmothers are as normal as a regular human or pony. Nevertheless, the 6 pals returns to the Castle of Friendship located 3 miles away from the cemetary.

Later that night, at the Castle of Friendship, a concerned Amy has no idea why the Castle of Friendship has 6 thrones until Flurry says that the thrones originally belong to the Mane 6. Given the fact that Amy, Elle, Hope, Nadhirah and Steven hasn't heard the Mane 6 before, Flurry says that the Mane 6 consists of 6 mares: Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and her aunt, Twilight Sparkle, leaving behind a fascinated Hope. Representing Generosity, Honesty, Kindness, Laughter, Loyalty and Magic, Flurry adds that the 6 Elements of Harmony can protect Equestria, no matter what. A gloomy Flurry adds that the Castle of Friendship has turned into both a museum and hotel by King Jacob Wilde after the Mane 6 died, specific for tourists and visitors, either animals, ponies and human beings. Given the fact that Amy, Elle, Hope, Nadhirah and Steven hasn't heard the name Jacob Wilde before, Flurry explains that Jacob Kenneth Brandon Wilde is Equestria's 3rd rightful ruler replacing Princess Twilight Sparkle after she dies. Also, a mind-blown Amy is impressed with Flurry's story, reminding the 5 humans of Queen Elizabeth II's death and taken over by King Charles III by the age of 73.

After Sean copies their orders in a ticket, he dashes back into the processing station and starts making the 3 sundaes. At the same time, when a curious Nathellie asks Laura that she is Sofia's daughter, she agrees her question. In addition, Nathellie introduces Nevada and Utah to Laura, much to their delight. Laura insists that the guy with blue hair is her big brother Sean, leaving behind a mind-blown Nathellie. After Sean finishes all 3 sundaes, Nathellie, Nevada and Utah are satisfied with the duo's hardwork, so they give them the money and left by saying ***THANK YOU***.

After Nathellie, Nevada and Utah left the Freezeria with the sundaes they brought, a confused Nevada has no idea why Laura and Sean's parents are both a pirate and princess at the same time until Nathellie explains that both of their parents came from 2 different TV shows. She gives Nevada a DVD of the old Disney Junior TV series Jake and the Never Land Pirates and a DVD of the old Disney Junior TV series Sofia The First to Utah, leaving the two sisters shocked.

Given the fact that Nevada and Utah hasn't met a pony before, a curious Utah wonders about the tattoo thingy on Pound's butt until it happens to be a CUTIE MARK. Noticing that Nevada and Utah hasn't heard the word CUTIE MARK before, Pound explains that CUTIE MARKS are tattoo-like symbols placed on a zebra or pony's flank and butt, representing their special talent and ability, leaving behind a fascinated Nathellie Ballerie until the 4 of them introduce themselves. When Nevada asks Pound why did he ended up getting himself stranded, Pound says that he's searching for Flurry Heart after she went missing for 6 months. Given the fact that Utah hasn't heard the name Flurry Heart before, Pound says that Flurry is his girlfriend who is an alicorn. Luckily, Nathellie, Nevada and Utah are here to help Pound, much to his joy.

Noticing that Amy, Elle, Flurry, Hope, Nadhirah and Steven are on the run to Mount Aris, Nevada claims that she, Pound, Nathellie and Utah are also heading to Mount Aris as well. Since there is no room in the front and back seats, Nathellie, Nevada, Pound and Utah decided to sit in the cargo area instead.
