After their defeat at Battle of the Bands. Sonata goes back to school to learn and make friends. The only trouble is not the fact she was a Siren bent on global domination but the fact that she might not be cut out for school period.

Twilight Sparkle has obtained the combined power of all four princesses of Equestria. Wielding this power, she confronts Lord Tirek, but the result of their fight is a tie. When he holds her friends hostage, she is forced to make a difficult choice.

All is not lost, however: one force remains in Equestria that could give her the edge she needs to defeat her foe, save her friends, and restore the world. She need only retrieve it from Zecora and place it around her neck...
