''My Little Pony: Friends Forever #28 - -- Luna and the Cutie Mark Crusaders''



Luna finds she hasn't the first idea of how to handle a sleepover, but fortunately, the newly-cutie marked Cutie Mark Crusaders are among the guests, and they offer to help her, as she had previously helped them in their dreams. With their advice, things seem to go well, until one unicorn filly, Thestra, is teased endlessly by two others and runs off into the bowels of the castle on her own. Luna and the Crusaders help to track her down, and she explains that she recently got her cutie mark - a skull and a bone - and has been teased by the others because of the oddness of it. The Crusaders try to help Luna provide Thestra with some comfort, but Luna is still socially awkward around children, only serving to make the situation worse.

Suddenly, they find themselves being attacked by a Mirrorca - a magical orca with skin made of a mirror-like substance that reflects all of Luna's magic. The group cowers in fear but Thestra recognizes that the mirrored skin is causing Luna's magic to fail and uses her own magic - which causes everyone's skin and muscles to become temporarily invisible, leaving them appearing as living skeletons. Without the visibility of its skin, Luna is able to use her magic to dispel the Mirrorca. The Crusaders are impressed by Thestra's magic, offering her several suggestions of how she can put that magic to beneficial use, and Luna also shows her appreciation and commends Thestra for her quick thinking. The sleepover concludes without further incident, and Luna and the Crusaders both gain a new friend.
