Enraged, Firefly, a Pegasus pony, takes to the skies to try and find someone who can help them defeat Tirak, who plans to use these ponies to pull his chariot of darkness. On her way, she crashes into Megan's well and asks her for her help. Megan is at first reluctant to go but after being confronted by the monsters, she sets out with the ponies to rescue them.
