The plot would be a non-canon, what-if story, where the Elements of Harmony are not useless stones. Nightmare Moon gets to them, and imbues them with Dark Magic, or something, and they go corrupt.
This causes two things:
1) The pony counterparts that represent each Element get corrupt too. They don't go all dark and shit, though. Their negative traits get amplified, so Applejack would be stubborn beyond belief, Rainbow Dash would be a mischevious pony (sort of like Gilda), Pinkie Pie will be actually fed up with everyone ignoring her, and so on.
2) Because Celestia's power source are the Elements of Harmony, her form reverts to that of an ordinary pony, and her powers grow weaker.
That's when Celestia tells Twilight something about her being a pony of destiny, and entrust her with the task of reverting the now corrupted Elements of Harmony to their usual state. This is done by confronting each of the ponies that represent an Element of Harmony, and turning them to the good side by making them acknowledge their mistakes (this would be with a boss battle, at the end of a dungeon).
When the pony gets reverted, they join your party, and Twilight increases her powers, thanks to the magic of Friendship. Obviously, Nightmare Moon would be the final boss, and she would be battled with the aid of the Elements of Harmony, sort of like praying in Earthbound. |
