With the fate of the Friendship Ball on the line, it's up to the G3 ponies to solve the puzzle correctly.


The Puzzle Queen (Part 2)

*Last time...*

"Long ago, there lived a pony called the Puzzle Queen. She had her subjects solve puzzles in order to gain the right to even talk to her. Everyone feared her but knew the only way she could possibly be reasoned was to solve her puzzles.

"Stop the party! This party is out of line!" shouted a voice.

"Who said that?" asked Minty.

"I am the Puzzle Queen and if you want this party to resume, you're going to have to solve some puzzles," explained the Queen.

"No-no-no. There's no way that's true. It was just pretend," protested Pinkie Pie.

"You DARE accuse me of being a phony and make believe? Allow me to show you the puzzle. If you fail to solve the puzzle, you'll never have the Friendship Ball again!" declared the Queen.

"What do we do, dahlings?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"Looks like we have no choice but to solve the puzzle. We can do it," stated Pinkie Pie.

"The puzzle has arrived," declared the Queen.

"I can't make heads or tails of this one," remarked Minty.

"Let's see. It's clearly a sliding puzzle. All we have to do is arrange things in the right order," explained Pinkie Pie.

"How do we do that?" asked Minty.

"Let me try. I'm great at solving puzzles," requested Puzzlemint.

"Wait. Remember what she said? If we fail, we can't have the Friendship Ball anymore. We need to all look at this puzzle and figure it out together," protested Pinkie Pie.

"Kimono would know how to solve this," realized Minty.

"Yes she would but she's not here right now. Let's look at what we have to work with. All these blocks appear to have letters. We just have to figure out how to slide them around. Anyone have any ideas?" continued Pinkie Pie.

"What about the empty space?" asked Twinkle Twirl.

"Good idea. That's where one block can go but we need to find the one that will open up another space to move the next one. I'll go first," replied Pinkie Pie. *She moves one block around.*

"Ah, I get it," giggled Minty. *She moves the next block and others follow.*

"Hm. We're not quite there yet but we're getting closer. Keep going everyone," stated Pinkie Pie. *The others continue to move blocks.*

"That's it. It's complete, right, dahlings?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"Not quite. We need to move a few more around," noted Pinkie Pie.

"Allow me," stated Star Catcher. *She moves the final blocks into place.*

"It spells Ponies, dahlings. Must've been meant for us after all," remarked Rainbow Dash.

"Very well. You've all proven your worth to me by passing the test. Others didn't do so well and I cancelled their festivities. I bid you all goodnight," stated the Queen before disappearing.

"Well this will be one Friendship Ball to remember," said Minty.

"It's not over yet. We can still party," noted Pinkie Pie.

"So let's party," echoed Star Catcher.
