Meanwhile with the remaining 4 Zipp, Sunny, Izzy and Hitch began running for safety before Zipp found a clear corner

"Quick, this way!" Zipp suggested

The four then rounded a corner and panted in relief as Hitch turned to look to see if somepony was watching he saw nopony there

"Okay, I think we lost 'em" Hitch said

After that Sunny approached Hitch in worry and disbelief

"Hitch, whay are you even doing here?" Sunny asked

"Arresting you and (Y/N) and saving you so you know a little bit of both actually, your welcome!" Hitch answered angrily

Just then Izzy realized something

"Wait, I just realized something where's (Y/N)?" Izzy asked in shock

After that the group except for Hitch looked at each other in confusion before Zipp decided to perk up as he sighed in defeat

"He sacrificed himself to save Pipp" Zipp answered

"What?!" The other two answered instead Hitch was just confused

"Wait, the pony without a hat, an Unicorn and saved Pipp is all (Y/N)?!" Hitch asked in shock

"Yep, pretty much, he's lived his whole life with us in Maretime Bay and he's had a dark past all because of you, Phyllis, Sprout and everypony else!" Sunny answered angrily

"Excuse me! If you knew about it why didn't you tell somepony?!" Hitch asked angrily

"Because it was our secret until we got captured by the royal guards which made (Y/N) lose his hat!" Sunny answered angrily

"So you just lied to mine and Sprout's face didn't you?" Hitch asked angrily

"No! Sure I might've lied along with (Y/N) but that's because I didn't want him gone by some plan you're doing to capture all Unicorns and Pegasi and besides you were a friend with an Unicorn!!!" Sunny answered

After that Zipp and Izzy who heard that argument was stunned

"So what, I broke one rule without knowing and you get mad because of that minor mistake?" Hitch asked angrily

"Excuse me! You do realize that (Y/N) was our childhood friend and always has been and you, you mess thing up every time!" Sunny answered angrily

Zipp and Izzy then broke the two apart

"Alright, that's enough guys, Sunny, remember that we were doing a mission to get the Unicorn crystal" Zipp said

"Yeah, you're right, I should be calm, sorry for worrying you girls" (Y/N) answered

"No worries Sunny, I knew you made the right decision in the end" Izzy said

"I agree with that" Zipp said

"Are you guys seriously making things worse, I know for a fact that this isn't allowed!" Hitch said angrily

"Ugh! Whatever" Sunny said

"But we still don't need any saving, okay?" Zipp reminded

"And you are?" Hitch asked in disbelief

"Her mom is the queen!" Izzy answered

"Wait a minute, so that means... You're a princess?!" Hitch asked in shock

"Look at that, the sheriff just became a detective" Zipp answered

"What?" Hitch asked in shock and confusion

Just then a news channel jingle was heard which made the group turn their heads to the big screen on the otherside of the street as a pony started talking

"Breaking story, Zephyr Heights is in turmoil tonight after the shocking revelation  that the royals can't fly" The news reporter said

The screen then changed to a few ponies talking

"Pipp used to be my favorite" A Pipp fan said in anger

"If we can't trust our own royalty, who can we trust?" Somepegasi asked in anger

Another Pegasi then grabs an Pegasi news reporter's hoof and pulls the microphone to him

"I blame the Unicorns and Earth Ponies! They ruin everything!" Some other pegasi said in anger

Sunny then went closer to the screen in shock and worry before the screen changes back to the news reporter

"This just in, Queen Haven has been arrested for being a phony pony full of baloney" The news reporter said angrily

After that Zipp gasped in shock as the screen showed Queen Haven walking out the front gate with two guards beside her while being angry

"No comment! And no photos!" Queen Haven said before turning to the screen "Okay, one photo!" Queen Haven suggested

Hitch then angrily turned to the group

"Anypony care to explain?" Hitch asked

"We had to get the crystal" Sunny started before putting her hoof in her saddlebag "Look!" Sunny suggested

Sunny then realized something as Izzy looked at the camera

"It was at this moment she knew, she f'd up" Izzy said

The group then looked at Izzy in confusion before back to Sunny who was getting more worried

"Oh, no, no, no, no! It's not here!" Sunny called out worriedly

"Seriously?!" Zipp asked in shock

"On the bright side we had so much fun losing it" Izzy reminded

"We have to get back!" Sunny suggested

"But it could be anywhere!" Zipp reminded

Just then the group heard sounds as they turned to the source and there they saw both (Y/N) and Pipp with the latter's hair in a mess while she was mad as (Y/N) got a nervous smile and when they were in the spotlight Pipp showed the Pegasus crystal to the four angrily

"Somepony seriously needs to explain why this thing was so important that you had to ruin the whole show over it!" Pipp ordered angrily

"Trust me, it was" Zipp said angrily

Zipp then went to approach Pipp to grab the Pegasus crystal before Pipp pulled it back

"You left me hanging there! In the spotlight! I was lucky enough to have (Y/N) rescue me but now everypony knows we can't fly" Pipp said angrily

Pipp's phone then started to make beeping noises which makes her pull it out

"A warrant is out for the arrest of the princesses" The news reporter said

After that Queen Haven is shown holding a picture with a number in worry

"Pipp! Zipp! Save yourself!" Queen Haven ordered

"What?! This is not happening! This is so not happening!" Pipp said in shock

(Y/N) then approached Pipp

"Don't worry, that's why we're going to get the Pegasus crystal so that your mom is free and other Pegasi can fly and after that you can be with your mom again, I know it doesn't seem like much but would you like to join me and your sister Zipp in getting peace back in your city?" (Y/N) asked

"I have to agree with him forget all about that, we think we can bring back magic but we need that crystal for it" Zipp agreed

"Have you guys lost your mind?" Pipp asked angrily

"Please, this might be our only chance" Zipp said

"Or would you rather live with your mom in a prison cell with disgusting food and dangerous criminals?" (Y/N) asked

"Ugh! Fine!I know a way out, come on" Pipp said

"Great! Let's go then guys!" (Y/N) said

The group then left as (Y/N) watched them run off

"What? Wait! You can't just... But I'm a sheriff!" Hitch called out

"Come on bud, let's go" (Y/N) said

"Ugh! Fine! Also Sunny told me everything about what you did so once we get back home I'm gonna make sure you get the worst punishment ever from lying to everypony's faces!" Hitch said angrily

"Sure, sure, anyways let's go now" (Y/N) suggested

(Y/N) then ran off as Hitch ran after him as the group started to leave Zephyr Heights and started going to Bridlewood

The next day back in Maretime Bay everypony in the Canterlogic place was working on Sprout's new invention as some Earth Pony started pulling a cart of electronics into the room where we saw somepony hammering a box and two other Earth Ponies carrying two large poles and another who was putting some nails onto a claw machine which went up once it was on it until one Earth Pony accidentally threw a hammer onto another Earth Pony's head which made it angry as we continued to follow the claw machine to two ponies who were working on the top of the invention with some sort of ruler before somepony accidentally flew and hit the cardboard and almost the two Earth Ponies who ducked before one glared angrily at the one who did so

"Hey!" Some Earth Pony called out angrily

The Earth Pony then flew the other way almost hitting the elevator on which some Earth Pony was on as the platform lowered before stopping in front of two Maretime Bay workers who were guarding it as we heard raspy breathing which almost sounded like Darth Vader before the pony went into the light showing himself to be Sprout who was drinking some of the smoothie Sunny brought the previous day before stopping and sighing in relief as he puts the smoothie bottle on the hoof of a Canterlogic worker

"Why aren't you finished yet?" Sprout asked

Another Canterlogic worker then approached him as he walked alongside Sprout

"W-We're working as fast as we can but we've run out of rivets" The Canterlogic worker explained

"Rivet-ing story" Sprout said before laughing as he then sighs in disbelief before glaring at the Canterlogic worker in anger while pointing a hoof at him

"Just make it work okay?!" Sprout ordered angrily

Just then the pole started flying again as somepony screamed once more which made Sprout look at it in worry before Phyllis came walking to her in worry

"Sugarcube, I know your little top-secret project is important and all but when do you think my workers can get back to making Canterlogic products?" Phyllis asked

Just then some Earth Pony started screaming before falling to the ground which made Phyllis grunt in pain as Sprout looked at him in anger

"Back to work Glitter Cupcake!" Sprout ordered

Sprout and Phyllis then began walking forward as the claw machine picked the worker up from the ground pulling him up by the waist

"It is my factory after all dear" Phyllis reminded

"But it is my town mommy! Your son's emperor of Maretime Bay" Phyllis reminded angrily

"Emperor?!" Phyllis asked in shock before scoffing in disbelief "But yesterday you were only the sheriff" Phyllis reminded in worry

"Well, see how fast I'm climbing the ranks? This defense factory is going on offense and it's all thanks to your love and encouragement" Sprout called out before turning to some Earth Pony else "Break's over Bubblegum McGinty!" Sprout called out

Sprout then continued to walk forward as Phyllis meanwhile was stunned and worried about the decision she made

"Oh dear, somepony's getting a big head" Phyllis said worriedly

Phyllis then began trotting after Sprout as we saw something behind a curtain being worked on which was super big

Meanwhile the group had rested well for the night as they continued their track as Sunny, Zipp and Izzy looked to the distance at the pink and blue tree before back at the book

"That's the tree from the map, that means... It's this way" Sunny explained turning to the way they had to go

The group then went to continue the track with (Y/N) and Sunny leading the way

"You know Sunny, I'm having a terrible feeling that something bad is happening in Maretime Bay" (Y/N) suddenly said worriedly

Sunny turned to (Y/N) in worry

"Really?" Sunny asked

"Yeah, it's like the world's gonna be under attack in at least two days" (Y/N) answered worriedly

"Well I'm sure that by then things will be resolved and everypony will be happy again" Sunny said

"Yeah, I hope so too" (Y/N) said

Meanwhile while the four were walking Pipp and Hitch were walking way back in both anger and disbelief

"What am I even doing here? Hoofing it across daisy fields looking for a magical crystal that doesn't even exist!" Hitch said in disbelief

"It was supposed to be my best show ever, and now it's all over, I'm a criminal! And it's all because of..." Pipp started before Hitch joined in

"Them!" Pipp and Hitch said in anger

"And that is so not cool" Pipp said in anger

"No it is not" Hitch said in agreement before he realized something "Did I just agree with a Pegasus just like I did with an Unicorn?" Hitch asked in worry "I hope I don't get punished too harshly for this" Hitch said worriedly

Pipp then went to walk next to Zipp as she talked to Zipp in anger

"Hey! Are you sure she even knows where to find this other crystal?" Pipp asked

"Don't you trust me at all?" Zipp asked in anger

"I don't know, You are the one that just got mom thrown in jail" Pipp answered in anger

"Look, once we get our magic back the whole kingdom will be so excited they won't even remember what happened back there, you'll be a hero Pipp" Zipp explained

Pipp however didn't agree to that as she secretly shook her head

Meanwhile Hitch galloped on over to Sunny and (Y/N) in anger

"Let's get one thing straight" Hitch ordered

Sunny noticed something as she called out to her fellow helpers

"We're almost to the river everypony!" Sunny called out

"After this whole escapade is over you are gonna march back home to Maretime Bay with me, is that clear?" Hitch asked

"Crystal" Sunny answered

"Great, because this badge means that I'm the she---" Hitch started

Hitch then pulled his hoof to the belt where his badge was supposed to be on before Izzy appeared in front of the screen again

"It was at this point that he knew he f'd up" Izzy said

Hitch then gained a shock look as he looked around in fright to search for his badge

"No, no, no, no! Where's my badge?! Hey! You!" Hitch called out before pointing to Izzy and (Y/N) in anger which made the two worried "I know Unicorns like shiny things!" Hitch called out angrily

"Oh, you know, I think I did see a shiny badge-y on the ground a few hours ago" Izzy explained

"You know, I did so too" (Y/N) agreed "We'll go get them after we got the magic back" (Y/N) said

"What?! Hours?!" Hitch asked in shock

"Well, maybe it's for the best, between you and me buddy" Izzy started before whispering to Hitch "That badge was creating an unhealthy power dynamic" Izzy said

Izzy then hopped away vocalizing to herself

"Yeah, sorry bud but once we get magic back you I can teleport it back to you" (Y/N) said

"Ugh fine!" Hitch said

Soon the six arrived at the bridge as they went to walk on it before they saw that there was a large broken gap

"Guess not only harmony has been broken apart" (Y/N) said nervously

"What are we going to do?" Sunny asked turning to Izzy and (Y/N)

Pipp then turned to Zipp

"Any ideas Zipp?" Pipp asked

"You know what could be great right now? Let me think, maybe something like..." Zipp started before shouting angrily "THE ABILITY TO FLY!" Zipp shouted angrily

"You know what could be even better? Not being stuck in the middle of nowhere as OUTCASTS FROM OUR OWN KINGDOM!" Pipp shouted angrily

While the duo were arguing Hitch turned to (Y/N) and ordered him to do something

"Oh, well, that's the end of that, time to go home, I wish I could say it was nice meeting all of you but it wasn't, come on (Y/N), I'll find you some rock to live under" Hitch said

"Are you serious?! Are you seriously gonna quit just because we didn't manage to get across?!" (Y/N) asked angrily

"Of course after all you are a literal outcast and Sunny is gonna be arrested no matter what!" Hitch answered angrily

"I don't think so!" Pipp yelled angrily

Sunny then looked at all the arguments thinking of some way to stop all this before she got even more irritated

"Everypony, stop!" Sunny called

After calling that out everypony except (Y/N) shuts up

"And that's why you should shut the fuck u---" (Y/N) called out before looking at the others who got angry "Uh, pretend I didn't say anything" (Y/N) suggested

"We're gonna get to the other side, find the crystal and bring back magic! And once we do you'll get to fly" Sunny said pointing to Zipp "You'll get your fans back" Sunny said pointing to Pipp "You can continue to be a hero in Maretime Bay" Sunny said before pointing at (Y/N) "And you'll have me in custody!" Sunny called out pointing to Hitch before she got a brave look "Everypony happy now?!" Sunny asked

Just then Izzy who secretly went to a tree stump moved it which caused it to fall to the other side which made the others turn to her

"Ta-daaaaa!" Izzy called out from a distance

Sunny then looked to the other side and saw the tree stump there as a bird was heard chirping

"All right!" Zipp said in happiness

"Ah great!" Hitch said in disbelief

"Come on everypony!" Sunny called out

The group then went on top of the tree stump and walked across the tree to the other side as we heard the unlucky Earth Pony screaming in fright again

"Heeeeelp!" The unlucky Earth Pony screamed
