Quick update. I'm sorry if it's been a long time, no one to blame but myself.
Anyways, I decided to do a Mane Six perspective for this next chapter, since people have been asking for one. Hope you guys enjoy!
Also, one hundred likes! Woohoo!

Intermission

“Hello? Is anypony there?”

“Huh? Who’s there? Is that you, Twilight?”

“Yeah, it’s me. Where’s everypony else?”

“Here.”

“Present.”

“Here!”

“...here.”

“Good, everypony’s present.”

“How is that a good thing, Twi? Ah don’t even know where we are!”

“If I recall correctly, this is in the deepest recesses of our consciousnesses. This is where we’ll stay while the aliens are in control of our bodies.”

“What a nice way to put it.”

“Wait, if this is our minds, then how are we able to talk to each other?”

“Well, the arcane magic needed to cast the spell first had to bind our beings together so as to create a multidimensional drape, which is what I cast the spell on. The magic flowed through that drape, and because we were bound to each other, all of us were affected. In essence, we’re still under that drape, even if it’s just our minds. My theory is that our collective consciousnesses are puddled together in some part of space, and that’s how we’re able to hear each other.”

“...”

“...”

“So basically, magic.”

“*sigh* Yes, Rainbow Dash. Magic.”

“Cool! I always wanted to know what my friends were thinking!”

“Well, I’m still not sure how I feel about all of this. The idea that somepony else is walking around in my hooves is… repulsive. Oh, I do hope that they at least have the common courtesy to not get dirty.”

“Actually, Rarity, why don’t you just check?”

“Come again?”

“Well, our minds might be severed from our bodies, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t still connected. I think we might be able to hone in on what exactly is happening with our bodies right now.”

“But we just can’t take control?”

“No, I placed special restrictions on that while casting the spell. I don’t what would happen if two minds were in the same body…”

“Well, let’s try it out and see what we find!”

“...”

“...”

“...”

“Hm, that’s strange. I don’t see anything. That either means the pony in my body is asleep or… What about you girls?”

“What in tarnation am I wearing?!”

“Holy Guacamole, me and Applejack have some sweet costumes!”

“Hahahaha! Applejack and Pinkie have the lamest costumes I’ve ever seen!”

“I can barely even see mah costume! These gosh darn glasses make me blind!”

“Uhm… girls…”

“Where are we running towards? We seem to be in some sort of hurry.”

“... girls…”

“I don’t know, I’m too busy enjoying the image of the Ultra Earth Pony Duo over here.”

“Why don’t you shut your yap, Rainbow, before I shut it for ya?”

“How are you going to do that? I don’t even have a mouth right now, remember?”

“...Girls… something’s wrong with…”

“I’m so confused. Where the heck am I?”

“Yeah, where are you Twilight? I don’t see you with us…”

“I don’t know. I think the pony in control is sleeping or something. I just can’t see a thing.”

“Hey, now that you mention it, I don’t see Fluttershy either. I wonder where she is.”

“Fluttershy…?”

“... I’m building some sort of wall… My hooves are really dirty… I’m muttering something under my breath… and…”

“And…?”

“... there’s a hole right beside me with a cow inside.”

“...”

“...”

“Who the buck is in our bodies?!”
