Chapter 1

Jim Kirk stood up from the captain's chair of the Enterprise, sighing in relief that the Federation/Klingon negotiations had come to a close. He had been in many near death situations, but by far the worst one was ferrying 20 ambassadors across the galaxy, as they somehow managed to take up more space and resources then half of the ship's 400 crew members. Now that it was over, all he was looking forward to was a cup of coffee and an afternoon without being bothered. He glanced around the room, wondering if anyone else hated diplomats as much as he did. There was Commander Sulu, the helmsman, who had visibly smiled when they had dropped the diplomats off, Lieutenant Uhara, who had jumped for joy, and Lieutenant Chekov, who had stood up on his chair and celebrated. Not exactly perfect behaivior, but hey, who could blame him? And then there was Commander Spock, the Vulcan First officer/Science officer. He of course, showed no emotion whatsoever, as Vulcans tend to do. But that was beside the point. He had just been approved for several weeks of shore leave on earth, and was preparing the ship to go to warp.
"Mister Chekov, are you done plotting out that course yet?" He asked, anxious to leave so he could excuse himself for a nice, hot cup of coffee.
"Aye-Aye, Sir!" Chekov replied with a grin.
"Mister Sulu, Warp 5.".
"Yessir", and the ship vibrated softly as it shot towards earth, thousands of light-years away.

Twilight Sparkle was in the Royal Observatory, mapping out stars. She was putting together a catalog with details on every star. Right now, she was working on a star that had just appeared about ten minutes ago.
"Oh wow! Maybe I'll be the first to see it! Let me just triple check my readings, and then I can show the princesses! I bet they'll be so proud of me!" Exclaimed Twilight, as she looked at the brightness gauge.
"Maybe they'll even let me name it! I- Wait a minute, the brightness can't be a five, it was a 3 just a few minutes ago! Let me refresh, and... SIX?!? Let's try that again. I hit refresh, and then... EIGHT!?! How bright is it gonna get?". She made careful note of the star's coordinates, and then rushed off to tell her friends.

Rainbow Dash was having the most fun she'd had in years. She and Pinkie had spent all night planning pranks on Ponyville's inhabitants. A rock here, a bucket of water there, virtually nopony would be spared. Now she was flying through the night sky with Pinkie on her back, enjoying a close-up view of the moon and stars. Suddenly, Pinkie started convulsing wildly.
"I just had a super Pinkie twitch!" She exclaimed.
"But I don't know what it means! Door open, someone is coming, big flash? That doesn't even make sense!". Then it happened. The entire sky was lit up by a bright flash as one particularly bright star seemed to explode into a giant monster. It was silver and shone in the moonlight, and was much higher than anypony could hope to go. Not to mention big enough to crush half of Equestria if it were to land on the planet. Dash gasped.
"I've got to warn the others!" And took a steep dive, before remembering that she was still carrying Pinkie and settling for a slow, steady descent instead.

"Applejack! I need to talk to you!". The orange earth pony sat up in her bed, wondering why Twilight was coming to her house at ten o' clock at night. "What can I do for ya, sugarcube?" she asked, desperate to hide her annoyance at her sleep being interrupted.
"I need you to come look at this thing in the sky, to make sure I'm not hallucinating!" Yelled Twilight, clearly in hysterics. "Well, I suppose that it couldn't hurt.". She said groggily, sliding out of bed and looking through the telescope.
"But I have no idea what would get you so worked up! I mean, it's not as if-" And then she saw it. A huge shining monster, floating with the stars. And it was getting closer.

Jim Kirk, having finally managed to get a cup of coffee, was about to take a sip when the ship suddenly ground to a halt, depositing the contents of his cup all over the floor/his shirt. He, after changing shirts, ran up to the bridge to see what was wrong, cursing his bad luck all the way.
"What is the situation? Why are we stopped? And WHY can't a guy have a cup of coffee in peace?" He asked, now very annoyed.
"Sir, we entered an uncharted wormhole and ended up in a large bubble of some sort, with a class M planet in the middle. It is a single-planet system, but most puzzling is the fact that both the sun and moon appear to orbit the planet, locked on opposite sides of each other." Spock answered, showing his usual tendency of knowing a lot more information than anyone could ever need.
"Do you have a long-range scan of the inhabitants?" Kirk asked, curiosity overpowering his annoyance.
"Yes" said Spock, pulling up a 3-D diagram on his computer.
"I have had the computer do a cross-reference with the diagram, and one result was returned. It says in the entry that the diagram's body structure has a 98 percent correlation with that of the twenty-first century cartoon character Twilight Sparkle, a unicorn."

A/N: I know, at the moment it kinda sux, but at some point I will make it better. Eventually. Anyway, If you like it, be awesome and give it 5 stars. If you don't? Be awesome and tell me what you hate in the comments, and I'll fix it. Eventually. I plan on releasing a couple thousand words a week, so if it's been several days since the last chapter, that means I'm planning a big update. Point is, Imma new at this, so please don't give it 1 star until I'm done improving it, which will happen.
Eventually.

"Spock, please tell me you aren't serious.". Those were the first words out of James T. Kirk's mouth when Mr. Spoke told hem he had found a unicorn.
"Why would I deceive you, Captain? To keep information a secret when it would benefit from being released is completely illogical."
"But how could it match up with a TV show from 300 years ago?" Asked Kirk, desperately grasping at straws.
"The sensors must be broken."
"That is impossible, Captain." Replied Spock cooly.
"According to the diagnostics check I ran the sensors are functioning at about 103.247% of their regular efficiency. These readings have a 99.8% chance of being correct, especially with the new, more accurate sensor array."
"Well, there's only one way to find out." Replied Kirk.
"I'll assemble the landing crew, you prepare the shuttle."

In Sickbay, Doctor Leonard "Bones" McCoy wasn't happy. When the Enterprise hit the wormhole the resulting jolt nearly gave him a heart attack, as well as jostling up some of the crew members. Now he had to clean up all the broken bones from the ship's gymnastics team, who had been in the middle of a particularly difficult maneuver when the wormhole struck.
"How's it going?" Asked Captain Kirk as he walked into Sickbay.
"Jim, would you mind telling me what that tremor was and why we had no warning? I was filing some paperwork after the jolt and the whole gymnastics team crawled in here!"
"Long story short, we discovered new planet."
"Well, that's good, right?" Asked McCoy, his tone lightening a little.
"Well, according to the long range sensor scan the planet is inhabited by unicorns." Kirk replied.
McCoy thought for a moment, and then grabbed his tricorder and grinned.
"Well, I can't have you all going down there without a fully qualified doctor, now can I?". With that, he let Doctor M'benga take over on the gymnasts and walked down the hall to the shuttlebay.
"Somehow" muttered Kirk,
"I thought that would be harder."

When Kirk reached the hangar the rest of the landing party was already there: Spock, Dr. McCoy, Uhara, Chekov, and Sulu.
"What took you so long?" Teased McCoy.
"Old age finally getting to ya?"
"I believe you would know the answer to that, as you are several years older than him." Spock replied, managing to keep a straight face.
"Of all the smartasses in the galaxy..." Began McCoy, before being cut off by Kirk.
"Let's try and enjoy this. I mean, how long has it been had since took some good old R and R? Plus, a large amount of energy keeps us from using the transporters, so we get to see the sunrise from the air! When's the last time we did that?"
McCoy just grumbled, and they all filed into the shuttlecraft.

They were aiming for the edge of a large forest area, but as they descended at a leisurely Mach .8, a large blip appeared on the screen.
"Captain, there is an external object heading straight towards us at Mach .9! Shall I begin evasive action?" Asked Spock.
"What is it? Is it organic?" Asked Kirk, worried that it might be an old-fashioned missile.
"I cannot attain the data, Captain. This shuttle is not equipped with class III sensors in the back."
"Evasive maneuvers! Get us on the ground NOW!" Kirk said urgently.
Almost instantly, the ship dropped to the ground, with Spock masterfully engaging the thrusters just inches above the ground.
"I have readings now, Captain. That object was not only organic, but also a life form.". And the whole crew looked up to see a streak of rainbow running across the sky.

Fluttershy was busy tending her garden. It had been a long day, and tending the garden was how she relaxed. She was just about to harvest the carrots for Angel's lunch when a rainbow streak neary crashed into her.
"Fluttershy! Remember that huge monster in the sky?" asked Dash breathlessly.
"Um...yes" replied Fluttershy timidly, heart still beating fast from when Rainbow had surprised her.
"I think it just gave birth! It's back opened, and a big metal box flew out! I tried to follow it, but it landed right in the forest! Wanna come look for it?"
"Um, why don't you go do that? I'm busy here. I have to make Angel's lunch and help a bluebird who broke her wing..." Fluttershy trailed off. She was deathly afraid of the forest, because of all the monsters.
"What if the baby whatever-it-is needs help?" Dash coaxed.
"Oh all right." said Fluttershy. "Let me go get my medical bag."
"Great! I asked the others to meet us at the crash site. They started a half hour ago, so let's get a move on!"
And with that, the two friends spread their wings and took off into the forest.

As Kirk and his crew emerged from the shuttle, they squinted in the warm sunlight as they took in their surroundings.
"Mr. Sulu, you and Mr. Chekov start disguising the shuttle with these branches.. Mr. Spock, do you have a fix on our location?"
"Yes, Captain." Spoke replied cooly.
"We are in the middle of the large forest, 3.5 miles northeast of our original target, with the Enterprise currently orbiting right over our heads. The nearest civilization is about nine miles southwest, and we should be able to initiate contact with the locals before the sun goes down."
"Exellent. We should probab-" Kirk started, but stopped when he saw the thing that had wandered into the clearing. It had the head of a lion, the wings of a bat, and the tail of a scorpion. And it looked hungry.
Kirk quickly drew his phaser, set it to KILL, and then fired 8 shots in rapid succession, 3 to the head, 5 to the body. As the beast keeled over, Spock's sharp Vulcan ears (no pun intended) picked up a minuscule "Eep" from a nearby bush, and proceeded to pick up the trembling yellow pony inside.
"Captain, I appear to have found a lifeform resembling that of the unicorn, but with wings." he said as he ran his tricorder over her.
"There appear to be several more in nearby bushes.". Suddenly, a rainbow colored blur hit him in the chest, nearly making him fall over. The rest of the crew began to unholster their phasers, but Kirk stopped them and approached the cyan blur attempting to knock Spock over.
"Spock, I would recommend that you put the yellow one down." Said Kirk, worried that the cyan pony who had stopped moving long enough to give him the death stare would start breaking bones.
Spock put down the yellow pony, and the pony finally stopped thrashing. She walked over and started comforting the shaking yellow pony.
"Fascinating. These two pony/bird hybrids would clearly die for each other. How did you know?"
"Um...I watched the whole series before we left." He replied sheepishly. The rest of the crew struggled to hold back smiles, and Spock's eyebrow shot up. He was about to reply when one of the ponies spoke up.
"So what exactly are you?". Kirk turned around slowly.
"Did that pony just talk?"
