Prologue

There and back again.

                                                   Chapter one

Twilight skimmed over a few page’s in the spell book that the princess had sent her.  Her eyes darting from word to word trying to memorize star swirl’s advanced spell to confirm his personal notes were accurate with those of star swirl’s. She turned the page’s again to look for the reversed spell just in case if it go wrong. She kept double checking for any mistakes but her eyes couldn't  find any. She wrote some notes to check the book one more time for later sticking it into the book. With a satisfactory sign she triple checked her notes and ,once she was satisfied, closed the old tome. she shrugged, she had ignored saving it for after she performed the spell. Once she had looked over it one more time, she closed the book, nodding in approval. Standing up, she bent her legs and back, stretching out a few muscle and ignoring the sound of her popping bones. She would never admit it, but she knew Rainbow was right about her sitting in one place for too long, and her sore body did an excellent job of reminding the unicorn of her mare friends warning.

She looked over to the where the bathroom still seeing it was occupied. "What is taking that mare so long. I swear, sometimes I feel like I’m with Rarity.” The purple unicorn started up the stairs to tell rainbow to hurry up or she was going to be late for work again when she heard singing coming from the bathroom; Rainbow’s terrible, terrible singing. With an annoyed groan she levitated a pillow and held it to her head to prevent from hearing anymore. as she retreated back down the stairs.

After entering the kitchen she spotted the flowers that Dash had gotten her last night, a dozen the finest roses one can get, each beautifully cut and arranged in a crystal vase.

Seeing the perfect opportunity to test out her new Twilight let her mind clear of everything until only the flower remained. her horn started to glow, with one last breath.

“Hey, Twilight!” Twilight jumped in fright as Rainbow Dash jumped on her back causing her spell to miss its intended target, the beam of magic bounced from surface to surface a few times before it reflected  off the vase striking both ponies sending them to the ground.

“Oh man, what was that?” Rainbow shook her head, Even My feathers feel fuzzy. What gives! I only wanted to give you a kiss.” The Pegasus complained as she got back to her hooves.

“Rainbow!” Twilight shot to her hooves and started examining her mar friend for any anomalies. How do you feel? any pain? Nauseous? Itchy? Quick how many feathers do you see?” Twilight helped her right  wing out so Dash could see.”  she asked as she grabbed every part of the flier, checking for damage.

“I’m fine, you hit me with stronger spells then that bef..”

Twilight silenced her with a hoof  over her mouth. “Dash, this is serious, answer the questions.”

With a roll of her eyes Rainbow pulled the hoof away before taking a deep breath. “I feel fine, no I am not in any kind of pain at all. No, I am not nauseous. No I am not itchy and I see all 45 of your feathers from the first Tertials to the tenth Primary. And all forty seven coverts. Which, I might add, are not preening properly.

“Good  that means the spell didn't work.” Twilight said letting out a breath of relief before her eyes snapped wide again. “Unless its affecting me! Do I look any smaller to you?”

By this point Rainbow Dash was getting more than a little irritated and was trying to get through  to the purple Alicorn but it was not going well.“ Twi.”

“Or maybe  I’m shrinking at rapid rate.”

“Twilight…”

“ I could be getting younger as I speak. what if I messed the spell up?”

“Twilight.” Dash said louder.

“What if I reversed the spell and I am getting older!”

“TWILIGHT SPARKLE!

The shout echoed off the walls of the library causing the librarian the stop her rambling to send her mare friend the most angry look she could muster  “Did you… You can't yell in the library, its… no its just, just no.”

   “Yeah yeah I remember the rule book. 247 ways to have fun in the library.” Dash spoke dismissively  as she walked around the other mare while ignoring the angry looks . “I was thinking I’d take you out tonight,”

“Rainbow! You half scare me to death, then yell in my library and then you ask me out to dinner?”

“Pretty much.” Rainbow nodded before nuzzling her cheek to Twilight. “I was just thinking, you’ve been working really hard lately Twi.” Dash kissed her cheek “ So I want to take you out, give you a little break and then maybe some fun later.” The Pegasus finished with a surly voice.

The Princess of Magic stared blankly at Rainbow, but shook the confusion off. Then walked to the door where Rainbow put a wing over her. “You know you're the only one that can get me away from my research.”

Just as they were about to leave Twilight stopped Rainbow with a hoof which made her stare blankly at her mare friend. “What about Spike?”

Rainbow face hoofed. “Spike is perfectly capable of taking care of himself Twi, I mean you leave him alone all the time, when you have your field research, and I seen him with a copy of play stallion. so chances are he knows a thing or two about sex.”

Twilight opened her mouth the speak but stopped dead in her track. “He has what!” Her eye were wide in both rage and panic and she spun around to change up the stairs when Rainbow flew ahead. “ chillax, he’s a growing kid. I would be more worried if he would be entered at this point.”

“But he's just a baby dragon! he doesn't need to know what a mare’s pussy looks like.” Twilight snapped is a harsh whisper.

” Rainbow just rolled her eyes. “Don’t worry I’m sure he’ll be fine. Just relax, and go out with me.”

Twilight sighed in defeat. She had to admit Rainbow was right.  “Okay, but I am giving him the sex talk later and you are going to answer all his questions.” she finishes with a smirk as she walked past her lovers stunned face.

Rainbow turned tail and ran out the door after Twilight. “But why! You’re his mom, why should I do it!”

“Because, for one thing, you did not take it away from him, and second, If you don't, you are sleeping in your own bed tonight.”

“Twiiiiii!!!!!!” Shouted the distressed flier.

They arrived back in the library an hour’s later. Because some of the other Pegasus on the weather team messed up, Pony ville was hit with a heavy flash rain that put a damper on many residents. Despite the rain, however, and Rainbow’s lack to not talk with her mouth full, the date had been a big success in Twilight’s book.

“You know, Its funny how fast you can haul flank.” Rainbow joked as she was drying off.

Twilight let out a loud yawn. “Will I love the rain, just hate being in it. Thanks for the date, Rainbow, I had a really good time.” Walking over she leaned in and gave her mare friend a soft kiss on the cheek.

“Nothing too-.” Rainbow yawned.  “Too good for my mare. Man, why am I so tired all of the sudden?”

“I know the feeling, maybe the run was more than I thought it… Rainbow?” Twilight stopped and looked to the swaying Pegasus.

“Twi, My head feels funnnn.” Rainbow never finished as she passed out and fell to the ground.

Twlight was by right her side the same moment and caught her head with her wings. “Rainbow! Rainbow sa...say someth…”

Celestia We Have A Problem!!

The birds chirped happily as Celestia’s sun slowly made its way over the horizon. The light stretched out over the hills, the forests and into the windows of sleeping ponies, whether they wanted it to or not. One such pony had been facing the window when the sun felt the need to ruin her fun in dream land. She tried to bury her face into the pillow and even tried to hide under it but it was no use, she was awake now.

“Twilight… what did I say about leaving the curtains open?” Dash groaned.

“Hmmmm, if I shut them you would sleep in all day. And you have that fog you need to prep for tonight.” Answered Twilight in a squeaky voice.

With a chuckle Dash rolled over and wrapped her legs around her marefriend, hugging her back. “You sound cute when you're half asleep.”

“Did you just use the word cute? Is the Rainbow Dash getting soft?”

“I-ummm it was just… but...” Rainbow tried thinking of something to say but her sleep-filled brain could only think of one thing. “Shut up.” Leaning over she kissed Twilight on the neck and moved to get out of bed, but she misstepped and fell on the floor with a dull thud. “Dumb bed.” Getting up she made her way to the bathroom for a shower.

Frowning at the lost of contact, Twilight too moved to get out of bed only to follow her lover’s example and fell face first onto the floor. “What’s going on?” she looked up at her bed and that was when she noticed it. It was much larger than it should have been, in fact her whole room was. It was then the thoughts of the day before came flooding back and whispered. “Oh no...”

“HAAAAAAAA!”  Dash came charging out of the bathroom looking terrified. And much, much smaller. “Twilight I shrank! What’s going o….” her voice died in her throat when she saw her friend.

Both Twilight and rainbow stared at one another with shock and fear. It was the spell! “My, voice!” “Your voice!”  They both shouted in unison, before they both zipped off to the bathroom and stared at their reflections. Staring back at them were two cute little fillies. One Pegasus with stubby little wings and a mane that looked like a rainbow colored dishrag. The other was a shrimpy unicorn whose horn barely peeked out of her mane and her wings were equally stubby as the Pegasus’.

“No-no-no-no-no” Twilight started spinning around in panic. “The spell it must have had a delayed effect, but it didn't say anything about it taking eight hours. Maybe I misread it or what if it was incomplete like Starswirl’s spell, and if that is the case; why didn't Celestia’s message tell me in the first place! Oh no, what if she is mad at me and wants to punish me, what could I have done wrong to warrant her wrath? Maybe she was unhappy with the new tax law I proposed, or it could have been the revision curriculum the schools need to follow, Or it might have been the-”

During twilights panicked ranting,  Dash was still shocked, and as she looked herself over she noticed another change. “Ah man, My Cutie Mark is gone too.” she said dejectedly.

“But if I had agreed and let them build the dam, the Griffins would have to stopped the import of peanuts, and that would have raised the price on peanut butter, and if that happened Trixie would have- wait what?” Twilight rant was cut short as she looked at Dashes flank then her own, Her cutie mark was gone as well!

“Spike, we need you to take a letter now!!” They shouted in unison.

Spike quickly ran to the rescued. “I'm here Twi-,”

Seeing both the elements of harmony as fillies made Spike burst out in a laughing fit.

“THIS ISN'T FUNNY SPIKE!” Twilight shouted in her baby voice, her cheek red as an apple.

Spike stopped a moment, his eyes filled with tears from the laughter. Hearing Twilight shouting in anger, with a baby voice, made him laughed even harder than before. How Twilight shouted with a baby voice made Rainbow chuckle a little.

Minutes passed, Spike held in his laughter holding his sides from the pain. “I'm sorry, but you sounded very-”

“THIS ISN'T FUNNY!” Twilight whined, Spike almost started laughing again, but he held it in.

“Spike, take a letter to the Princess.”

Spike pulled out a quill and parchment ready to write every word Twilight said.

“Dear Princess Celestia

The new Starswirl the Bearded spell book you gave me, I loved it and the spells were very hard to perform, but I did it. But I regret to inform you one of the spells has gone wrong and now me and Rainbow are fillies! Please Princess I need your help.

Your faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle.”

Once finishing the letter Spike sent it to Canterlot with his fire.

As quickly as Spike sent the letter, an aura of fire travel back into the library; revealing a parchment.

“That was fast,” Rainbow said.

“I hope she found a way to reverse this spell,”

Twilight began reading the letter out aloud.

“Dear Twilight,

I feared this might happen. As I regret to inform you Starswirl never made a reversed spell. But don't worry my student, me and my sister, Luna, are trying to create a herb to bloom/finish researching the spell

as we speak. In the mean time ,to prevent suspicion, I'll enroll you both in Ponyville’s middle school as new ponies who just came into town. Good luck, my faithful student.

Your mentor, Princess Celestia.”

“MIDDLE SCHOOL?!”

Hi I'm...What's My Fake Name Again

It was beautiful day as Celestia's sun shined it’s glorious rays of light upon the ponies of Ponyville, emanating by a cloudless baby blue sky for them to admire as well.

Twilight and Rainbow Dash stood behind the red brick walls of the school house as both of them hid from the other students that were enrolled in the school passed them by. Twilight had a book that contained spells which might help them with their filly problem, while Dash kept on the look for any who might trot behind the school

“Ah!” Twilight exclaimed as she tapped a certain spot inside the page. “It says here that it’ll change the color of our coats, irises and manes.” she carefully explained to Dash.

Rainbow Dash rubbed the back of her neck as she chuckled. “Seems too easy, Twilight,” she questioned, uncertain about the spell’s capability. “I mean it sounds awesome and all, but aint there always a downside to these things?”

Twilight rubbed her chin as she thought of an answer. “Yes, but this one doesn’t have any.”

“So how this spell works you just think of how you want to look and poof you’re changed?” Rainbow Dash asked a little curious.

Twilight nodded. “Yup; just tell me how you wanna look and I-

“DARING DO!” Rainbow Dash interrupted as she bounced up and down with a wide grin that spread across her face. “I wanna have Daring Do’s coat and mane!”

Twilight stood there as she stared at Rainbow Dash, unamused by her fan girl actions. She facehoof. “No, Rainbow Dash, you can’t look like some author’s kid.”

“BUT I WANNA LOOK SUPER AWESOME EVEN THOUGH I AM SUPER AWESOME!” Rainbow Dash whined. “But, I wanna look like her type of super awesome!”

Twilight groaned as she grit her teeth. “Rainbow Dash, that will raise more questions as to where you came from and why are you’re here in Ponyville instead some big rich school in Canterlot!” She explained.

“Dammit, Twilight,” Dash muttered to herself. “You just crushed my dreams.”

“But, I thought being a wonderbolt was your-

“I can have other dreams!” Rainbow Dash hissed at Twilight. “Just do that thingy spell and let’s do this thing.”

“Alright.” Twilight backed a few inches away from Dash as her horn began glowing a violet color. “This might hurt.”

“Alright class that’s the lessons we have for today.” Miss Cheerilee finished the lessons they had for the day to get to the big announcement

“Alright my little ponies,” she said cheerfully. “It appears we have two new fillies in our class today.”

The fillies and colts started discussing about what the new fillies looked like until Cheerilee hushed them up. “Alright here is-” She picked up the paper with the list of the new fillies names written down. “Stream Prismism.” she announced to the class.

The class’s eyes turned to the front door as a pink coated and black maned pegasus came into the room.“Hey I’m Rainbow- huh I mean Stream Prism and I’m going to show my awesomeness once again to y’all little fillies and colts!”

Stream Prism  said, but there was no screaming crowd of fillies in awe of her coolness. Instead there was utter silence and Rainbow took that as a sign to just move along for Twilight to be introduced.

Cheerilee cleared her throat. “Alright that was Stream Prism .” She picked the paper up again as she read out loud Twilight’s fake name to the class. “Alright here’s Velvet Shine!”

The class’s eyes turned to the front door once again as a dark blue coat and green maned unicorn came into the room. Twilight stood in the middle of the class. “Hi! I’m Velvet Shine and I'm new here so I hope we all can be friends.”

“Alright you’ve met the new students please give them a warm welcome to our school.” She said and the students stomped their hooves. “Alright let’s get started on our-” Cheerilee was interrupted by a tugged from Twilight on her foreleg. “Yes, honey?”

“What lesson are we being taught?”

Cheerilee smiled. “Well the basics of Multiplication.”

Twilight gasped and groaned as she trotted to her seat.

This was going to be a long day.
