Guardians of Harmony: Heroes of Friendship/Full Plot

## Part 1

### The Story Begins

The film begins with Melody Harmadale, her parents, their friends and all of the other Multiversal Guardians from the past seasons (except Season 3) having fun together in a sunny day. Melody introduces herself and the others as the Guardians of Harmony. Victoria Daisy and Arcturus Porter I say two parts (one for each) of a friendship lesson, but they and Melody notice that the others are starting to act differently, being mean at each other. Melody tries to get them to stop, but she falls over a cliff and screams, causing her to wake up, revealing the opening scene to be a dream. However, poor Melody loses consciousnesses before she can figure out what just happened to her.

Meanwhile in Equestria, a young Earth Pony named Sunny Starscout and her friends Hitch Trailblazer and Sprout Cloverleaf play with carved miniatures of the Guardians of Harmony. While Sunny wants to preach about friendship between ponies, creatures and humans, her friends say that they have been taught to fear and despise the other races, but Sunny dreams of one day meeting and befriending a Pegasus and a Unicorn.

After Hitch and Sprout leave, Sunny, with the help of her father Argyle, sends out a letter in a floating paper lantern inviting Pegasi and Unicorns to their Earth Pony home of Maretime Bay. That night, Argyle, using a light projector that he made to project pony images on Sunny's bedroom walls, once again tells her the story of Twilight Sparkle and how she and her friends spread friendship and harmony across the Multiverse many years ago. When Sunny asks why the creature races are no longer friends as they used to be, Argyle answers, "Maybe one day, we'll figure it out." Meanwhile, in the Pokéverse, a young girl named Amber Witchhazel is told a story by her parents about a young girl named Nanette Daisy and her diverse group of friends, including a cyborg general who was her close friend, her older sister, a girl who used to be an evil robot, and a romantic couple who planned to marry as soon as they turned 18, and she was in fact friends with Twilight Sparkle. Amber tells her mother that she wants to meet a pony like Nanette did and says that she wants magic to be real again someday.

### Amber and Sunny's first meeting

Several years later, Sunny, now a grown-up mare, wakes up in the middle of the night, brushes her hair, and packs up her items on her bag before she goes outside. Before she leaves, Sunny tells her father that she has a big plan and that she misses him so much. Sunny then skates to the Multiverse Embassy and picks up the keys while the guards are asleep, entering the Pokéverse. Little did she know, a Unicorn is also following her, being interested in making new friends.

That morning, Amber, who is now 13, wakes up and goes to take a walk with Whitely Daisy, but she is an outcast with no friends except her. She explains to Whitely how she wants to make magic real again, with her just rolling her eyes at her immaturity. As Sunny heads through town trying to deliver smoothies to people, they scream and run away at the sight of a pony, though she knew this would probably happen. Sunny suddenly remembers her annual plan of ruining Phyllis Cloverleaf's racist self-defense technology demonstration to preach friendship at it, but as she skates her way back to the Embassy, the guards spot her, block her way, and a cyan haired boy and a brown-haired girl in red scream that a pony is in town, causing more people to run away. However, Amber hears the screaming and perks up at the word "pony." She rushes over and is both excited and in shock to see a pony in person, while Sunny is equally excited and stunned to see a human who isn't running away screaming from her. Despite the attempts of Whitely, the cyan-haired boy, and the brown-haired girl to stop her and their claims the pony is dangerous and unfamiliar, she refuses to listen. Realizing that there's a chance that Officer Jenny could catch them, Amber and Sunny run to the former's house for shelter only to find a purple Unicorn waiting for them.

### "Unicorns don't have any magic?"

Amber is surprised that a Unicorn managed to get into her home without getting targeted, while Sunny is so happy and eager to befriend a Unicorn, who introduces herself as Izzy Moonbow. As the two bombard Izzy with questions about where she came from and debunking various Earth pony misconceptions about unicorns, Amber bombards both ponies with questions such as how they pick up stuff with their hooves, how it is like to walk on four legs, why they don't wear clothes, or if they're really all extremely girly even if they're male. After begrudgingly answering the questions, Sunny learns that Izzy does not have any magic, much to both of their shock. When Officer Jenny arrives to place the three of them under arrest, Izzy inadvertently causes a distraction that allows them to sneak away undetected. The trio quickly runs into the Embassy and escapes from Officer Jenny. Hitch, meanwhile, notices that Sunny went into the Embassy and runs off to pursue her while leaving Sprout in charge as acting sheriff. A teenage Earth Pony named Neopolitan Swirl is intrigued and sees the opportunity to find more (vegan) ice cream shops beyond Maretime Bay, and wants to try every single ice cream flavor in the Multiverse, so she quickly runs out of the ice cream shop she is interning at and follows them just as the door locks.
