If Lauren Faust (the Fausticorn) was abducted into a space fortress ... ?

[HorsesandMOARGaloar 300]

 ... inside a room with eleven red lights that drain her powers (and with it, her strength), would you devise a situation for her to escape, with these conditions below?

(These lights are coated with a glassy/crystal substance that does the "sucking away her powers" thing. They, and all the lights in the space fortress, turn blue if the aliens' Emperor dies.)

(Right now, the wicked Emperor is still alive (under heavy guard, in his Palace, with a civil war/surprise invasion looming ahead), and Lauren can do nothing but languish; she could try to lift herself up, or use her horn/magic, but her powers and strength are taken away into the lights to power up some departments of the spaceship. If he indeed dies, the lights turn blue, giving her strength back, and multiplying her powers by the number of lights in the room.)

(If you're expecting some ponies/creatures within Lauren's heartily-created universe to save her, they can't: they're currently under the aliens' powerful mind-control system, emitted throughout the Universe. They will torture Lauren and revive her for their amusement.)

(Finally, in spite of all this, would you like to create a situation in which Lauren can be saved/the Emperor will be killed?)
