 * The wind, the sword, and the tri-blade simply rebound off of the magnificent Alicorn's force barrier, as does Goldfin's trident.

Goldfin: "Rrgh! What?!"


 * From the roof of Ponyville Town Hall, the Mare Do Well casts a spell—a deadly array of perhaps a dozen criss-crossing beams. Parlys personally raises another magical shield to halt these too.

Princess Parlys: "Tut-tut. If you'll no longer entertain me, then I think it's time we culled your ranks. Time to say goodbye, Power Ponies!"


 * The pale Alicorn's horn glows a familiar cyan-magenta-and-yellow. But this time, a ball of pure white magic appears in the center. It grows and then, before Goldfin can even shield her eyes, it engulfs the entire twon square.


 * When the light fades, everyone—everyone in the square but the Alicorn and the phoenix—is trapped inside a floating picture frame. They find they are able to move a little and talk, but otherwise there are few options. Goldfin cannot even lift her trident.

Goldfin: "Gah! Why did he get me again? Wait...!"


 * Goldfin, in her horror, fails even to find the words to finish the thought as she realizes that everypony was stricken.

(Forgive me, folks. I didn't want to have to do this, but how could I not? I hope you like a challenge. Recall what I said about wits, nerve, and common sense...)
