==Synopsis==

*'''Episode 1''' Sweet Stuff and Spike are out looking for Mimic, when they see Mimic she is fading in and out in front of them. They ask Mimic what’s wrong but she faints. They take her inside and go to get Megan. Megan examines her only to find nothing wrong with her. They believe magic is the cause so Megan, Spike, Paradise, Lofty, North Star and Wind Whistler all go off to see The Moochick. The Moochick shows them the book Pony legends and History, reading the story of the four Golden Horseshoes. He tells them Mimic is a descendent of a special unicorn in this legend who had lost her shoes and that they need to collect the four horseshoes to make Mimic well again. The Moochick points them to the first and goes to help look after Mimic. They land in Sqreerah and explain to the Sqree what’s happening. The Sqree won’t part with the horseshoe so Wind Whistler challenges them to a race with the horseshoes or herself as the prizes. Wind Whistler loses and they learn the race was fixed so they scare the Sqree and take the horseshoe. The horseshoe shows them the next place to go Blarkland. They soon arrive there and the occupants offer the horseshoe for a trade of a riddle that he doesn’t already know. Paradise tells him a riddle about a creature that walks on a different amount of legs during the day. He’s left stumped and orders Cracker his assistant, to lead them to the next horseshoe which is under a lot of junk, when they tell him the answer. They retrieve the horseshoe and save Cracker from a falling pile of junk so the guy they told the riddle too, orders a tunnel dug to the Goblin Tunnels which will lead them to the next shoe. Entering the tunnel they are then greeted by the Goblins boys with a bag and net.

*'''Episode 2''' The ponies run for it and hide while the three Goblins trip and start arguing. The goblins can read minds so they catch North Star, Spike, Megan and Lofty easily. Wind Whistler and Paradise are spared thanks to the horseshoes they now wore around their necks, so they follow them secretly. Megan and co explain to the Goblin Mother why her children are fighting. It is because they can read each others minds using the horseshoe she wears. She refuses to give it too them. Meanwhile The Moochick has the idea to try to make some more horseshoes so Whizzer takes him home to his workshop. As the goblins fight while guarding the cage the ponies are in, Wind Whistler frees the ponies. North Star goes back and steals the horseshoe from the Goblin Mother before flying off, The Goblin mother becomes grateful as the boys stop fighting. The Moochick can’t make the shoes as the magic involved is to strong for him to control. The Horseshoes indicate the next and final horseshoe is up high at the home of the Green Mountain Elves. The elves welcome them and Megan explains why they’re there. The elf child Mayve, owns it and you can’t take from a child in the elves world unless the child agrees.  They ask for it back but she refuses and takes them on a tour. Megan then shows Mayve Mimic and the elf relents letting the ponies have the horseshoe. The Moochick puts the shoes on Mimic and she becomes well again.

  • Episode 1 Sweet Stuff and Spike are out looking for Mimic, when they see Mimic she is fading in and out in front of them. They ask Mimic what’s wrong but she faints. They take her inside and go to get Megan. Megan examines her only to find nothing wrong with her. They believe magic is the cause so Megan, Spike, Paradise, Lofty, North Star and Wind Whistler all go off to see The Moochick. The Moochick shows them the book Pony legends and History, reading the story of the four Golden Horseshoes. He tells them Mimic is a descendent of a special unicorn in this legend who had lost her shoes and that they need to collect the four horseshoes to make Mimic well again. The Moochick points them to the first and goes to help look after Mimic. They land in Sqreerah and explain to the Sqree what’s happening. The Sqree won’t part with the horseshoe so Wind Whistler challenges them to a race with the horseshoes or herself as the prizes. Wind Whistler loses and they learn the race was fixed so they scare the Sqree and take the horseshoe. The horseshoe shows them the next place to go Blarkland. They soon arrive there and the occupants offer the horseshoe for a trade of a riddle that he doesn’t already know. Paradise tells him a riddle about a creature that walks on a different amount of legs during the day. He’s left stumped and orders Cracker his assistant, to lead them to the next horseshoe which is under a lot of junk, when they tell him the answer. They retrieve the horseshoe and save Cracker from a falling pile of junk so the guy they told the riddle too, orders a tunnel dug to the Goblin Tunnels which will lead them to the next shoe. Entering the tunnel they are then greeted by the Goblins boys with a bag and net.
