Chapter 1

It was a quiet day in the mountain town known as South Park. A very peaceful town where nothing out of the ordinary happens. Today, at South Park elementary, the fourth graders where going on a field trip. The teacher never told them where, but they guessed it would be freaking boring.

On the bus, four boys sat by each other.

       "So, where do you think we're going?" A boy in a red-poof ball hat asked.

       "Shut up Stan, nobody cares" A fat kid with a yellow-poofball hat said.

       "Cartman shut up..." A boy with a green hat crossed his arms.

       "Don't tell me what to do you stupid Jew!" Cartman yelled.

       "Don't freaking yell you fat a**!"

       "Mmph mmph mmph" a boy in an orange hoodie said in a muffled voice.

       "Your right Kenny" Stan looked over at the two. "Kyle, just ignore him..."

       Before Kyle could say something, another voice cut into the conversation. "Hey fellas! Guess what?"

       "Shut up Butters, nobody cares."

       "What Butters?" Kyle looked over.

       "Um, some kids up front said we were going to that nature preserve. You know, the place with the... The cute animals"

       "Ugh... Not the nature preserve. Dude that place is lame" Cartman pouted.

       "I thought at least we would go to a museum, or something with something we could do." Stan said.

       "Aww but it's not so bad" Butters said quietly. "There are butterflies and squirrels and...."

       "Dude, no offence, but that's gay as..."

       "Cartman shut UP" Kyle yelled. Just then, the bus came to a stop. The boys looked out the window. Sure enough, they were at the nature preserve.

       "Ok class, please step off the bus" The teacher instructed. One by one, the fourth graders hopped off the bus. "Now, does anyone have to go to the bathroom before we begin?"

       Stan looked at the ground. "Ugh, this is already boring..." Just then, he saw something in the corner of his eye. "What was that?" He quietly sneaked away from the rest of the class and ran into the forest. He followed a path with a lot of undergrowth, but it was surprisingly easy to maneuver through.

       "What are you doing?" The voice made Stan jump. He turned to see Kyle, Kenny, and Cartman there.

       "See, I told you he was going to sneak off and make out with Kenny" Cartman laughed.

       "Mrrrr mrrrph Mrrrr!" Kenny mumbled angrily.

       "I saw something back here" Stan explained. He pointed into the forest.

       "Um, what did you see exactly?" Kyle tilted his head.

       "I don't know, now stop asking questions before we get caught!" Stan continued into the forest. After a while, the trees began to lessen, and it led to a small clearing. Somthing was in the middle.

       "Is that.... A rainbow?" Kyle wondered aloud.

       Stan blinked. "Why is there a rainbow in the middle of a forest?"

      "Fellas! Fellas!" Butters ran into the clearing. He stopped by them. "What are you doing out here?"

      "Ugh, what did you do, bring the whole class?" Stan growled. "What, are Clyde, Jimmy, and Bebe here too?"

      "Nope, just me"

      Stan sighed. "Fine, just be quiet...." He walked over to the rainbow. Hesitantly, he reached his arm out to touch it. Suddenly, there was a bright light, and everything around them disappeared.

Chapter 2

     "W-what the hell happened?" Stan groaned and sat up.

     "S-Stan?" Kyle said. "What was that?"

     "No clue" Stan could hear Cartman and Kenny a foot away.

     "Oh my.... Um.. Uh... Fellas? What happened to my body?" Butters sounded afraid.

     "Butters.... What did I tell you? No one wants to hear about your personal problems." Cartman said.

     "Oh hamburgers! It happened to you too!!!"

     Cartman looked at himself. "Holy crap...."

     Kyle opened his eyes. He looked down at his arms. He didn't have any fingers, just.... hooves? He looked around and saw colorful buildings. Then, he saw a puddle nearby. He looked in it. "W-what the...." He looked like some sort of pig like thing. An orange pig.

     Stan suddenly screamed. He stood up on his back hooves and looked at himself. He had a brown coat and he still wore his red-poofball hat. "What the f***?!?!" He fell back down onto all fours. "We're dreaming."

     "This doesn't feel like a dream." Kyle replied.

     "I swear I didn't drink anything..." Cartman promised.

     "Then why are we rainbow pig cow things?"

     "Dude, your a pony"

     "A pony?" Stan could hardly believe what he was hearing. "Why am I a f***ing PONY?!"

     "Don't you remember that rainbow thing?" Cartman, who was a pale red pony, reminded him.

     "But how do we get back?" Butters panicked. He was a light blue pony.

     "I don't know" Kyle looked at him. "Also, what the hell is this?" Kyle pointed to his head.

     "I don't know, a horn? Like a unicorn" Stan responded.

     "Heh, I guess that makes Kyle a Jewnicorn" Cartman laughed.

     "Shut up fat..." Suddenly, a shadow passed over them. The looked up and saw Kenny flying.

     "Mrrrmmm Mrph!" Kenny murmured happily.

     "What? How come Kenny gets wings? I want wings!" Cartman complained.

     "Even if you had them, your too fat for them to pick you up."

     "Shut up Jewnicorn"

     The two started arguing again. "Mrrm mrrrph mrrrmmm" a Kenny landed back on the ground.

     "Good idea Kenny. Guys, quit arguing. We're going to find someone to ask about what happened." Stan said.

     Kyle glared angrily at Cartman, then walked over. "Ok" he looked around the colorful town. Then, he saw a pink mare a few feet away. "How about her?" Kyle suggested. The five boys approached the pony. "Um excuse me, but we..."

     The pink pony looked down at them. She jumped up and gasped. Then she turned and ran away.

      "Well then...." Kyle looked over at Stan. He shrugged in response. "Are there any humans around? Or is this just a place full of magical rainbow horses?"

      "Dude this place is really gay" Cartman narrowed his eyes and looked around. "But I guess it's better than that stupid nature preserve."

      "Oh well. Let's go look around"

.•.•.•

      "Um, it's getting dark" Butters whispered.

      "Where is everyone?" Stan looked around in confusion.

      "Mmmph mrrrmmm mhhhm mmmmm!" Kenny flew ahead and picked up something. He trotted back and handed it to Kyle.

      "What's that?" Stan looked at it. "Oh, it's a note!"

      Kyle read it out loud. "Come to the tree house liberary."

      "Who's it from?" Butters looked over Kyle's shoulder.

      "Not sure. Maybe they'll know what happened though. What if somebody we know is there?" Kyle said hopefully.

      "Or a place to sleep. My feet hurt" Cartman groaned.

      Stan rolled his eyes. Then he looked up. "Is that it?" He pointed at a large tree.

      "Only one way to find out." Kyle looked over at Cartman, who was lying on the ground. "Get up fatty..."

      "F*** YOU KAHL" He stood up.

      They quickly walked towards the large treehouse. When they arrived, Stan opened the door. "Ugh, it's too dark"

      "Where's the lights?" Butters asked when the door shut.

      Suddenly, the lights turned on. "SURPRISE!!!!" The room was filled with ponies of all colors.

      The boys stood, speechless. "What. The. Hell." Kyle said.

Chapter 3

         The pink mare the boys saw before ran over to them. "Hi! My name is Pinkie Pie and I threw this party just for YOU!!" She squeaked

         Stan stared up at her. "H-hi?"

         "When I saw you come over to me, I realized I didn't know you, and I know EVERYPONY in Ponyville. So that meant your new. So I went, -gasp- and made this party for you!" She crouched down so she was equal height with the colts. "Aren't you surprised?!"

         "Ugh... Very..." Kyle stepped back. "Um listen, we..."

         A few other ponies walked over. "These are the new ponies?" An orange earth pony with a southern accent asked.

         "Huh. I expected them to be different." A cyan pegasus with a rainbow mane snorted.

         "Rainbow! Don't be rude!" A white unicorn with a beautiful violet mane chastised.

         A purple alicorn walked over to the boys. "Welcome to Ponyville!" She smiled. "What are your names?"

         Stan hesitantly walked forward. "Well, um I'm Stan Marsh. That over there is Butters, that's Kyle, Kenny, and the fat one is Cartman."

         The purple mare blinked. They're names seemed different. She smiled though. "Nice to meet you. I'm Twilight Sparkle."

         "I'm Apple Jack!" The orange one greeted. She grabbed Kyle's hoof and shook it aggressively.

         "I'm Rarity" the white unicorn said.

          "The name's Rainbow Dash." The pegasus flew over to them. "I don't suppose you've heard of me?"

         Twilight glared up at her. "And I'm guessing you've met Pinkie Pie. Hey, where's Fluttershy?" Twilight looked around. "FLUTTERSHY!" Twilight called out.

         A moment later, a yellow pegasus with pink hair walked over. "Um... Y-yes Twilight?"

         "Have you met the new ponies?"

         Fluttershy looked over at the fourth graders. She stared at them for a long time."T-th-they're..... ADOREABLE!!!!" She ran and picked up Kenny. She flew up and hugged him.

         "Mrrrrm mrrrpphhh mrrrr" he looked down at the others.

         "Ya Kenny, we all know your the cutest... You don't have to rub it in."

         "Oh you're all the cutest!!!" Fluttershy squeaked. "Where do you guys live?"

          Stan looked at Kyle and Butters. What was he suppose to say?

          Suddenly, Cartman stepped forward. "Ma'am we're just poor poor children who were abandoned by our evil parents, Kyle's mom especially." Kyle narrowed his eyes. "We're so cold and hungry... And... " he started to fake cry. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's just, my little baby hooves are hurting so much and we're so teird and hungry and..."

          "Shut up Cartman! That's not true!" Kyle growled.

         "Oh ya Kyle?! Then you tell her where we live! .... Ya that's what I thought! Now I for one thought I described it 100 percent accurately! In fact, I deserve a freaking Oscar."

         Kyle mumbled something, then looked at the ground.

         "Oh you poor things!" Fluttershy cooed, still holding Kenny like a baby. "I can take care of you!"

         "Oh, well... We don't have anywhere else to stay... But.." Stan wasn't sure how to respond.

         "Great! I can show you where I live after the party!" She said sweetly. She put Kenny down and flew off.

         "Awww..." Kenny murmured in disappointment.

         Suddenly, a bunch of other ponies started to surround the colts. "Well, this is going to be a long night..."

   .•.•.•.

         Fluttershy flew a foot off the ground. Kyle, Stan, Kenny, Cartman, and Butters followed the yellow pegasus down a path with trees on both sides.

         "This is insane" Kyle whispered to Stan. "How are we going to get back?"

         "I don't know"

         "You were the one who brought us here."

         "I'm sorry! I didn't know we would be brought to a world where we become horses, and the other horses won't leave us alone. Not to mention we may never get home! Just f*** off Kyle!" Stan yelled.

         "Sorry" Kyle murmured angrily.

         Stan calmed down. "No, I'm sorry. I'm just teird and..." He looked up. "I'm actually kinda hungry."

         "Finally, someone understands..." Cartman said.

         "Um, Fluttershy, is it? How long till we get to your house?" Stan called to the mare.

         "We're here now" Fluttershy pointed to a cottage on a small hill. "This is my house. I-I know it isn't much but... Well... It's very quiet...."

         Stan walked up the path. When he reached the door, he opened it, and was immediately greeted by several woodland critters.

         "Awww, how cute" Butters said quietly.

         "Mrrrmmm mrrmmmmphh" Kenny agreed.

         Fluttershy greeted all of the animals in her cottage. When she did, Stan noticed something. "What is that?" He pointed to Fluttershy's flank.

         "Oh, that's my cutie mark. It...it represents my talent of being good with animals." Fluttershy explained.

         Cartman tilted his head. "You have a butt tattoo.... That represents your talent?..... I want one"

         Fluttershy's eyes widened. "You don't have cutie marks yet? That's ok though. Most fillies like you don't have cutie marks yet. You'll get them soon enough!"

         "Um excuse me Butterfly." Cartman said.

         "It's... It's Fluttershy"

         "Where's the food? Baby ponies need lots of good to grow" Kyle rolled his eyes.

         "Oh yes! One second" Fluttershy disappeared for a few moments, the returned with a tray. "What do you guys want? I have hay, a few apples, carrots, a daffodil and daisy sandwich?"

         The boys stared at it for a few moments. Then Kenny said, "Mrph mrm mrrm?"

         "Ya, I don't eat things I can find in my backyard." Cartman stated. "Do you have any chips, or a burger?"

         "Chips? Burger?" Fluttershy questioned.

         Cartman stared in shock. "Not even fried chicken?"

         Fluttershy still looked confused.

         Cartman flattened his ears, the said, "you know what, screw food. I'm going to bed." He turned and marched off.

Chapter 4

          "You can sleep in the guest room." Fluttershy showed the boys a room with one large bed.

          Kyle, Stan, and Kenny all climbed onto the bed. "Thanks Fluttershy" Kyle said.

          Cartman stood back. "Wait, so we all have to SLEEP together? In one bed? That's so gay."

          "Aww come on Eric, it ain't so bad" Butters hopped up onto the bed.

          "Easy for you to say Butters..."

          "Cartman shut up!" Kyle shouted at the red earth pony.

          "F*** YOU YOU F***ING Jew!"

          "Hey! There is no need for that kind of language!" Fluttershy scolded.

          Cartman glared at her, then climbed into the bed and laid down as far from the others as possible. "Don't touch me"

          "Like I would touch you..." Kyle growled.

          Fluttershy walked over. "Now, if you guys need anything, I'll be here!" She walked out if the room quietly.

          Stan closed his eyes. He was quickly awoken but the sound of something being thrown through the window. He sat up. Kyle and Butters did too.

          "What was that?" Butters asked.

          "Go check it out Stan"

          Stan climbed out of the bed, careful not to step on Kenny. He looked at the ground. "It's a ball with a note attached to it."

          "What's it say?"

          "Come outside"

          "That's it?" Kyle jumped out of bed and Butters followed. "Oh hamburgers! There's probably a murderer outside!!!"

          "I'm pretty sure a murderer wouldn't write in crayons." Stan pointed out. "Well, should we see what it is?"

          "I'll wake up Kenny" Butters offered.

          "You want to take fat a** with us?" Kyle looked over at Cartman.

          "I can hear you Jewnicorn" Cartman said.

          "Never mind.... So how are we planning on getting past Fluttershy?"

          "The window" Stan replied. "It's the only way"

       .•.•.•.•.

          After Butters jumped out the window, the boys walked into the backyard. There was a chicken coop, a picnic table, and several animal houses there.

          "Um, hello?" Stan called out.

          Suddenly, he saw a shape run past him. Another ran behind him. Another jumped over Kenny. All of the figures ran around the yard until they finally came to a stop in front of them.

          "Excuse me? Why did you drag us out here in the middle of the night?" Stan demanded. One of the figures stepped forward until it was finally visable.

          "Howdy!" It greeted. "I'm Apple Bloom!"

          A white unicorn stepped out of the shadows. "I'm Sweetie Bell."

          An orange pegasus stepped out last. "And I'm Scootaloo."

          Stan stared at the three fillies for quite some time. Finally, he said, "is this some kind of joke?"

          "Of course not. Why else would we bring y'all out here?" Apple Bloom said.

          "Also, we never caught your names." Scootaloo said.

          Stan facehoofed, then sighed. "Ok, my name is Stan"

          "I'm Kyle"

          "I'm Butters...."

          "Mrm mmph"

          "What?" Scootaloo questioned.

          "He said his name is Kenny" Kyle replied. "And that retard is..."

          "In Cartman. Eric Cartman. And I'm not a retard, but Kyle on the other hand is."

          "Wow, those are some strange names." Apple Bloom thought aloud.

           "Oh, so Stan is a weird name, but Sweetie Bell isn't?" Stan growled.

          "Hey!!" Sweetie Bell squeaked.

          "Well, anyways, the reason we brought y'all here was because we offer you to join our club!" Apple Bloom said.

          "A club?" Butters wondered.

          "Ya! We're on a mission. A crusade to find our talents." Scootaloo added.

          "We noticed at the party that you had blank flanks. But don't worry, we do to!" Sweetie Belle chimed in.

          "What do you call this club?" Kyle asked.

          "THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!!!!!!" All three fillies shouted.

          "I think you blew out my eardrums...." Cartman hissed covering his ears. "It still sounds lame though."

          "Shut up..." Kyle glared at him. "So why do you want us to join?"

          "Like I said, we welcome blank flanks into the club. Together, we try to earn our cutie marks." Sweetie Belle reminded.

          Apple Bloom stood closer to Stan. "Sooooooo? What do y'all say?"

          "Thanks but, we really don't..."

          "Awww but it will be fun!" Sweetie Belle whined.

          "PLEASE???" They all begged.

          Stan gritted his teeth. "Ok FINE! Now shut up!!!!"

          "Alrighty then! Meet us at the tree house tomorrow for your induction!" Apple Bloom disappeared into the shadows just as fast as she came out of them.

          "Don't forget!" Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle followed their friend.

          Stan looked at the place they disappeared for a long time. 'What did I get us into?'

Chapter 5

         "FLUTTERSHY! We're going outside!" Butters called.

         The yellow pegasus floated over. "Oh ok. You all be careful and be back soon!" She said as the colts left the cottage.

         "Why does she gotta treat us like babies?" Cartman said quietly.

         Stan shrugged. "Now, where is that tree house?"

         "Why did you even agree to do this Stan?" Kyle asked.

         "I don't know, they wouldn't stop bothering me. Besides, they seemed desperate" Stan replied. The boys walked down the roads into the town of Ponyville. They passed a few more buildings. Stan looked behind him. "Ok, do you think we should ask some.... Where's Cartman?" He realized the pony was missing.

         Kyle smiled. "Hurry, let's go before he comes back!"

         "Kyle... Now isn't the time. We need to find him."

         Kenny poked Stan from above. "Hrph mmnn mmph hmmph" the gold pegasus pointed to a building that resembled a large piece of cake.

         Stan facehoofed. "You don't think..." He trotted over to the building. He opened the door.

         "Hello! Welcome to Sugar Cube Corner!" A blue earth pony with a swirly pink mane greeted. Stan looked around the room. There were many tables and chairs. Across the room, was a counter with several baked goods like cupcakes and muffins. There was a stair case that Stan guessed was where someone lived. Then he looked at a table by a window, and as expected, he saw Cartman eating a cupcake, with three more on the table. "Cartman!" Stan yelled.

The earth pony looked over, then glanced down at the cupcakes. "What?"

"What are you doing?"

"What!? I was hungry! And this is the only place that serves normal food!"

Butters trotted over. "Ooh those look so tasty"

"F*** off Butters these are mine!" Cartman swatted the teal pony away.

"Cartman, how did you even afford those?" Kyle asked suspiciously.

"Um.... Baby pony discount..." He said after taking another bite of a cupcake.

Kyle groaned. "Can we just leave?"

Suddenly, they heard a high pitched squeak, and a second later, Stan felt arms rap around his body and he was crushed by somepony giving him a hug.

"ITS YOU!" He recognized the voice of Pinkie Pie.

"Oh great..." Kyle rolled his eyes.

"You guys came to visit me? Are your so awesome!!!!!" The pink mare said happily.

"P-pi-pinkie... I... cant ....b-breathe..." Stan rasped.

"Oh. Oops!" Pinkie Pie dropped the colt. He lied on the floor, trying to catch his breath.

"What are you doing here?" She asked.

"Trying to get this fatty out of here" Kyle replied.

"FRRK YRR KYRRRL!" Cartman yelled with a mouth full of cupcake.

"Oh come on there's nothing wrong with eating a cupcake!"

"Ya Cartman, maybe you'll get your cutie mark in eating"

"Fu... Wait that sounds awesome.... Thanks Kyle" The orange unicorn facehoofed.

"Well, we still need to leave" Stan choked, still recovering from Pinkie's bone crushing hugs.

"But you just got here! We could play a game!"

"Hmmmp Mrpphhh mmmnnn Hrpmh Hrrrmph mmmrph" Kenny explained.

"Oh... Well why didn't you just say so?" Pinkie open the door for them to leave. "I'll see you soon! Come back anytime!"

.-.-.-.

Walking down a long dirt path, the boys finally arrived at a barn, in a place known as Sweet Apple Acres. "Wow, look at all of those apple trees. I bet nobody ever goes hungry here." Kyle pointed out.

When the into the farm, Stan saw a red earth pony plowing the fields. Stan went up to him. "Um, hello. Is this Sweet Apple Acres?"

The stallion stop working and nodded. "Eeeyup"

"Cool, thanks" They ran past the large barn into the trees. Stan guessed that if the tree house was anywhere, it would be in the trees. It was logical. After a few long minutes, they ran into a familiar farm pony.

"Howdy sugarcubes!" She greeted. "Applebloom said y'all would be joining their little group."

"Yes, sure. Do you know where they're at?" Kyle asked.

"Of course, I'll show you" Apple Jack led the ponies to another path, which led to a clearing. A large tree in the clearing stood there, a pink tree house with hearts on the sides sat peacefully in the branches. "There it is. The CMC hideout. Have fun!"

"Good going Stan, now we have to play with a bunch of girls." Cartman ate a piece of chocolate he brought with him from Sugar Cube Corner. They walked up the pink stairs that led to the tree house. Kyle knocked on he door, and in a few seconds, the three fillies opened the door.

"Oh good, your here!" Applebloom cheered. "Your a little early though, we haven't even finished setting up. So wait out here for a few minutes until we finish." The door shut, and the colts stood there, waiting. After what seemed like forever, the door finally opened and the boys went inside. The CMC were wearing capes.

"What is going on?" Kyle whispered to Stan, who shrugged in response.

Suddenly, Scootaloo started beating on a drum. Then she stopped, and started hitting the drum loudly. Butters covered his ears. Soon, Scootaloo stopped again, and hit the drum one last time. Sweetie Belle gave her an annoyed look. Then she cleared her throat.

"We, the CMC elect Kyle, Butters, Stan, Eric, and Kenny to join us as brothers, friends, allies, amigos...." She went through the list of things. "Blah blah blah, and a fellow CMC! Congratulations! Sadly, we don't have enough capes for you....but we can"

"No no no that's alright. We don't need anything. Are we done now?" Kyle said.

"Yep! Your all official CMC!" Scootaloo exclaimed. "Now, for your first mission as CMCs."

"Mission?" Stan questioned.

"Ya! Were going to get our cutie marks in deep sea diving!" Applebloom announced. The fillies grabbed the boys hooves. "Let's go!"

Chapter 6

"Dude do we have to go swimming?" Cartman complained.

"Yes, y'all are CMCs now, so we have to try to earn our cutie marks" Applebloom replied.

"You know, I don't really mind going for a swim." Kyle said.

"Me neither. It's better than doing nothing, right Kenny?" Stan looked over to the Pegasus, who nodded.

"See Eric? They know how to have fun" Scootaloo laughed. She ran ahead towards the swimming hole, and stopped when she reached the shore, waiting for the others.

"Let's put on our snorkels!" Sweetie Belle picked up the scuba equipment, and passed one to everyone. "Now, let's go get our cutie marks in deep sea diving!" The three fillies ran into the water. Butters looked at the water for a few moments, then cheered and jumped in after them. The rest of the ponies stood still.

"Why are we doing this again? Kyle asked, already knee deep in the water. "I mean, this seems pointless. They just complete tasks that they assume is their special talent. Shouldn't they already know what they're good at?"

Stan shrugged and followed Kyle into the water.  "I don't know, but they seem to enjoy the extra company, as much as we hate it. I suggest we just play along until we can find a way to get home"

"Perhaps we could find someone who's smart to help us." Kenny, who had his hoodie of for once, suggested.

Kyle nodded in agreement. He looked over at Cartman, who stood there. "Are you going to just stand there?"

"Why do you care Kahl?"

"I don't"

"Then mind your own f***ing business!"

Kyle rolled his eyes and swam into the water. Stan and Kenny followed him.

    .-.-.-.

Cartman dozed off on the shore of the lake. He was awoken by the splashes of the other foals. "Where have you guys been?"

"Having fun, retard" Kyle responded harshly.

"We saw a bunch of fish Eric! You should have come with us!"  Butters chimed in.

The three other fillies walked out of the water. Sweetie Belle took off her big scuba goggles. "Maybe we earned our cutie marks!" The CMC looked at their flanks, but frowned. "Aww, I really thought we'd get them this time." Scootaloo mumbled in disappointment. Then she looked over at the boys. "What about you?"

Stan and Butters looked. The others didn't bother. "Nope" They said at the same time. Stan turned to the others. "So, after we get done with this, let's try asking some of the other ponies in the town. We already know Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie wont be any use to us. Which leaves the sparkly pony, the rainbow pony, and the one with both a horn and wings." Stan started to think of a plan. The others nodded. "Sounds good" Kyle responded. Then he looked around. "Now, where are our hats" He looked over at Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle.

"Hey look! I'm Stan!" Scootaloo had the colt's red poof-ball hat on her head.

Sweetie Belle put on Kyle's green hat. "These are some strange hats you have"

Applebloom put on Kenny's orange hoodie. Kenny's eyes widened. "Um... I-I wouldn't mess with that if I were..." Suddenly, they heard a cracking noise. A tree started to topple over, it's shadow dark and ominous. It landed with a loud "Thud" just a few inches from the yellow earth pony. Applebloom stared at the tree. "Heh heh, that could have landed right on top of me!" She giggled.

Kenny sighed. "Ya, you may want to give that back" He flew over and pulled off the coat. He quickly put it back on himself. He put on the hood and took off the goggles he was still wearing. "Mrmmph mrmph..."

"Ok fine, I won't mess with it anymore" Applebloom rolled her eyes, as if she didn't take almost dying seriously. The other fillies gave back the hats to the Kyle and Stan, who quickly put it back on. "So, what are we going to do to earn our cutie marks next?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"How about we let the new crusaders decide?" Applebloom suggested. She and the other's gazes switched to the boys.

"Um... uh..." Stan stuttered.

"How about skydiving?" Butters suggested.

"Already tried that. Didn't go so well." Scootaloo replied.

"Roller skating?" Stan asked.

"I sprained my hoof" Sweetie Belle looked down.

"Mrrmph mrrmm?" Kenny said.

"Nah, that wouldn't work" Applebloom thought for a second. Then her eyes brightened. "I know! How about ziplining?"

"NO!!!" Kyle, Stan, Kenny, and Cartman screeched.

"Fine, oh well, we'll think of something. I'm going home, see you soon!" Sweetie Belle trotted off.

"I'm gonna go help my sis with apple bucking." Applebloom followed Sweetie Belle, then Scootaloo went after them, leaving the fourth graders alone.

"Thank God that's done" Stan sighed. "Come on, let's start getting our questions answered."

        "But how?" Kyle asked.

        Stan could still see Sweetie Belle a little ways away. "Hey! Hey Sweetie Belle!"

        She turned around. "Huh?"

        "Do you know the pony with the sparkly hair?"

        "Ohhhh, you mean Rarity? Ya I know her. In fact, she's my sister"

        "Perfect! Could you take us to her later today?" Stan asked. This could be a chance to ask one of the ponies for help.

        "Of course! I'll meet you in the center of Ponyville. I need to finish something with the girls first and then I'll be there to assist."

Chapter 7

"This is stupid!" Cartman kicked a stone across the dirt. "Why do we have to wait for that stupid unicorn to show up? We could have been at the place we needed to go to already if we could have just asked!"

"Look dude, Sweetie Belle said she would show us her sister's house. If she can help us, we could get back home." Stan said.

Cartman snorted and sat down.

"Hey guys!" A voice squeaked. The colts turned to see the white unicorn filly approaching them. "Thanks for letting me come with you! You know you could have just asked someone for directions to my house, but this is better."

Cartman took off his hat and screamed into it.

        "Ok, so can we go?" Kyle asked impatiently.

        Sweetie Belle nodded and led the colts down a dirt path. After a while, a large building came into view. It was decorated in pretty ribbons and colors. "This is Carousel Boutique! Aka my house" the filly opened the door and beckoned the boys to follow. A white unicorn walked down a staircase, she was levitating a blue ribbon. There were many mannequins around the room, each with a work-in-progress dress.

        "Hey Rarity!" Sweetie Belle waved.

        "Back so soon? I thought you were with the girls?" Rarity tied the ribbon onto a dress.

        "I was, but the new kids wanted me to bring them here." Sweetie Belle explained.

         Rarity turned to see the boys standing by the door. "Oh hello there darlings!" She welcomed. "What are you doing here?"

         Stan took a step forward. "Well, we needed help. You see...." He was cut off by a new voice.

        "Rarity! I finished sorting out your felt!" A purple and green dragon ran into the room, but skidded to a halt when he saw the fourth graders. "Who are they?"

        "Why Spike, those are the colts I told you about. They arrived in Ponyville only yesterday." Rarity explained.

        The dragon bounded over. "Cool, I thought I was the only guy around" he said quietly. Then he cleared his throat, and said, "Hi, I'm Spike. And you are?"

        Stan quickly introduced his friends, then said, "now, the reason we're here is...."

        Without warning, Rarity grabbed Butters and floated him over with her magic. "Sorry darling, I just need you for one second." She proceeded to put a pink dress and a dark blue bow on Butters. "Perfect!" Butters let out an embarrassed chuckle. Then Rarity looked at the others. "You know, the girls surprisingly never want to help me make dresses. They said they're too busy 'crusading'. But I could use you to model my new filly clothes!"

        Cartman winced at the thought of wearing a dress. "SCREW THAT" he quickly ran out the door. Kyle, Stan and Kenny just froze there. "Um... We...."

        Rarity looked at the bow on Butters's head and gave a disgusted look. "Dark blue? What was I thinking.... I'll get you a light blue bow!" She disappeared into another room.

        "Quick Butters!" The three colts burst out the door. Butters quickly squirmed out of the dress and dashed after them.

     .•.•.•.•.

        Cartman stopped and caught his breath. He had run all the way from Rarity's house, all the way to the center of town. "T-there's no w-way... In hell... I'm modeling dresses...." He panted. Just then, he turned and saw the others running towards the town center too. When the got there, Cartman said, "oh thank God I thought you guys got turned into girls. Not like I would care since it's everyone for themselves in that mad house, but I don't want to be the only one here. Oh but you could have sacrificed Kyle."

        "Well, we know now that Rarity is NOT going to solve our problem." Stan coughed.

        "Then next we need to talk to that rainbow-haired horse." Kyle told then.

        "Where is she?" Butters was looking around. "Here rainbow horse! Here rainbow horse!" He made noises as if he was calling for a dog.

        Suddenly, a shadow passed overhead. The boys looked up and saw a pegasus zoom through the clouds. "Found her" Cartman said.

        "But how will we talk to her?" Stan wondered.

        "Hmmph mrrm mrrrph" Kenny unfolded his wings and stared to fly after the mare.

        "Ya go Kenny!" Cartman cheered. Both pegasi were nowhere to be seen for the longest time. Then, the pegasus started to fly down from the sky. Kenny was in front of her. "Hey look, he did it" Butters clapped his hooves.

         Suddenly, one of the clouds darkened. "Watch out!" The rainbow-maned pegasus called down. But it was too late. The cloud sent out a bolt of lightning. Kenny turned around and shrieked. The electricity zapped him and he fell limp on the ground.

         The boys were silent. Then Stan yelled, "Oh my God! It killed Kenny!"

         "You BASTARD!" Kyle yelled up at the cloud.

         The cyan mare landed beside Kenny's limp body. "Woah, is your friend ok?"

         "Well ya, his pulse stopped bit I'm sure he's fine!" Stan retorted.

         Just then, Kenny coughed and sat up. "Mrrm mrrrmrrrn"

         "Oh.... Nevermind." Stan blinked. "Ok, look, what was your name again?"

         "Rainbow Dash. Why?"

         "Well, look. We need to talk to you." Kyle said.

         "Okie dokie, just make it quick. I'm scheduled to create rain in about fifteen minutes." Dash sat down.

         "Ok, so this might sound crazy, but hear us out." Stan let out a long sigh. "We arent from around here."

         "Well duh. Your new. I'm not stupid"

         "Just listen. We don't even belong here. In fact, we're not even ponies."

         "We come from a mountain town in Colorado known as South Park" Kyle added.

         "We were taking a field trip to the nature preserve." Butters said.

         "Which was totally LAME" Cartman crossed his hooves.

         "So we saw something in the forest" Stan continued.

         "Mrrrmmm mmmm mrmph" Kenny added.

         "So we woke up here as ponies, and we need help getting home." Kyle finished.

         Rainbow Dash was silent. She stared at the colts for a long time. Then, she burst into laughter.

         Kyle tilted his head in confusion. "What? Do you think we're joking?"

         Rainbow Dash tried to control herself. She wiped a tear from her eye. "Of course I do. You can't fool me little foals. I've heard all of the stories." She snorted. "But none as good as this one!" She cracked up again. Next, Cartman started to snicker, then he started laughing too. "OMG Kyle, your stories suck"

         "You were there retard!" Kyle shouted over the laughing ponies.

         Rainbow Dash finally stopped. "Oh that's priceless." She sighed. "You should tell me another sometime."

         "Ya Kyle, tell her about when you..."

         "Shut up fat a**!!!"

         "Ok ok, I think we're done telling stories. Man you have a pretty colorful vocabulary for such a young age." Dash smiled in amusement. "You know, that story wasn't too bad, you should go tell Twilight so she can write a book about it. She's an egg head who loves sciencey stuff. Oh no, I need to go. The weather won't control itself you know." She unfolded her wings.

         "Wait, weather doesn't control itself here?" Kyle said to himself.

         "Wait, Rainbow Dash?" Stan called up to her as she started to fly away.

         "Ya squirt?"

         "Where is this Twilight?"

         "She lives in the tree library. You remember the place Pinkie threw the party at. Now I have to go." Rainbow turned and flew away at top speed.

         "She's my favorite" Cartman said randomly.

         "Why did you ask her about that Twilight pony?" Butters asked.

         "We've talked to everyone we've officially met except her." Stan explained. "So if we want to get out if this place, she's our only option."

         "As long as I get nowhere near a dress, I'll be fine." Kyle said.

         "Mrrr mrph" Kenny agreed.

Chapter 8

Twilight used her pink magic aura to levitate a book into it's correct place. She had spent about half an hour organizing her shelves. Since Spike was at Carousel Boutique helping Rarity, she had to do everything herself. "That was the last one." She said to herself as she placed the last book into the shelf.

Suddenly, she was interrupted by the door opening, and five colts entered the room. "I think this is the place" Kyle said looking around the library.

The purple alicorn looked over at them. "Hello everypony! What brings you by?"

Stan looked wordlessly at the mare. What if she reacted the same way Rainbow Dash did? How would they get their answers if everyone they talked to didn't even take them seriously? 'Maybe it would just be best not to mention it right now...' He thought to himself. "we're just visiting"

        "Oh, we your welcome to stay if you'd like"  Just then, they heard thunder outside. Rain started to fall rapidly. "Well, you probably SHOULD stay here."  Twilight said. She fluttered over to her chair. "So, how has your time in Ponyville been going so far?"

        "It's been, alright" Kyle said, unsure how to respond. "We joined that little thing those fillies made up. What was it called...."

        "Mrmphmmph mrrpmh hremphhrr" Kenny reminded him.

        "Oh, right"

        "I heard. They never had any pony else join them since they're the only fillies and colts I know who are still missing cutie marks. Until of course you boys came to town" Twilight looked at one of the colts. "Hey, Kyle is it?"

        "Ya, what?"

        "I had no idea you were a unicorn"

        Kyle glanced up at his forehead. "Oh you mean that?"

        "Yes. Do you know any magic?" Twilight asked curiously.

        Kyle blinked. "No"

        "Oh! I could teach you!" The purple alicorn offered. "You can learn to create auras to levitate stuff, to teleport, and many other tricks." Twilight used her horn to create a pink flash. In a second, she disappeared from her chair, and appeared beside Kyle.

        "Wow. I could do that?" Kyle asked in awe. Twilight nodded. "Hmm. Maybe being a pony isn't terrible after all" he whispered to Kenny.

        Twilight grabbed a book down from the shelf. She turned to the other boys. "You guys can do something if you want to. Now, let's start with the basics"

        Stan turned to the others. "So, what do you guys want to do?" Kenny and Butters shrugged. "This place is really bumming me out..." Cartman mumbled. "There are so many books here and not even any games."

        "What do you expect... We're in a LIBRARY" Stan pointed out the obvious.

        "Hey, lookie here fellas" Butters pulled out a deck of cards. "Let's play this!"

        "Eh, guess it beats reading" The red earth pony sat down.

   .•.•.•.•.

         "Ok, now try it one more time" Twilight encouraged.

         Kyle did as she said, and managed to create a spark of magic, which created a green aura that picked up the basic magic book. Kyle smiled happily. "Hey! Hey guys! Look what I can do!"

         "No one cares Kyle" Cartman commented. He and the others were too busy playing a card game.

         "Shut up dumb a**" Kyle growled.

         "Oh ya Kyle, that looks like fun" Butters said, not bothering to look up.

         Stan threw down a card placed in his hoof. "UNO" He announced.

         "OH COME ON!!! SCREW YOU STAN!" Cartman threw down all of his cards onto the floor. "Stan cheated, obviously."

         "No, you're just really bad at this game" Stan laughed.

         Cartman pointed a hoof at the brown earth pony. "Oh right Stan, likely story. You agree with me, right Kenny? Kenny?" The pegasus colt was nowhere to be seen.

         "Meh, probably going to the bathroom" Butters said.

         Twilight looked out the window. "It's pretty late, plus the rain is still pouring. You should probably stay here for the night. You must be hungry. I'll get some snacks." Once she left, the door opened. A dragon with an umbrella and cute yellow rainboots walked through the door. He folded up the umbrella and took of his boots and placed them by the door way. The dragon turned around. "Oh it's you. Why did you guys run off earlier today?"

         "Personal reasons" Butters randomly answered.

         Spike nodded. "She had to put me in a tutu once. Most humiliating thing that ever happened. But I like helping Rarity because I love he.... love to help her out." He quickly added. He stood there awkwardly for a few seconds. "Well, I'm going to bed" he ran upstairs.

         Twilight came back out with a plate if a few cookies. "Aww yes! Normal food!" Cartman cheered. He immediately took one the second she put the plate down. "No debate, you and Rainbow are my two favorite ponies."

         Twilight blushed slightly. "Aww, thanks!" She started to put away the Uno cards on the ground.

         Stan thought that it was the perfect time. "Speaking of Rainbow Dash, we saw her today. We told her something, and we decided to tell you too." Stan sighed. "You'll probably think we're just making up stories, but, here goes nothing... So, we aren't from around here"

         "In fact, we live in a place a called, Colorado." Kyle added.

         "I've never heard of that place before. Is it far from Ponyville?" Twilight asked, her back was turned to them as she put the cards away.

         "Not necessarily.... " Stan explained. "You see, we don't belong in Equestria. We aren't even ponies. We were on a field trip."

         "A boring field trip to a stupid nature preserve" Cartman chimed in.

         "We followed Stan into the forest, and we saw a rainbow, right in the middle of a small clearing!" Butters described.

         "When I touched it, we somehow got taken here, and our old bodies were changed into new ones" Stan finished

         Suddenly, Twilight froze. The cards she carried in her magic bubble dropped.

         "Ugh, never mind. You'll probably think it's just a story like Rainbow!" Stan put his face in his hooves.

         Twilight turned around, a serious expression on her face. "First of all, that's what you get for telling RAINBOW something impossible to believe."

         Stan kept his face hidden. Kyle looked at the floor. Butters and Cartman's ears flattened.

         Then Twilight let out a sigh. "But... It isn't something that is impossible to happen" The boys looked up. "So wait... You BELIEVE us?" Kyle asked in a surprised tone.

         "You know, being the smartest mare in Ponyville, I would know a thing or two about alternate dimensions." Twilight smiled.

         Stan jumped up. "This is amazing! So we can get back home?"

         "Well..." Twilight began. "Inter-dimensional travel is extremely complex. You know, I always knew there were other things out there! This is just so cool to have an alternate-dimensional being right here before my very eyes!!!" Twilight stared to loose her cool. She was now flying around the room. Then she landed back down, embarrassed when she realized how she was acting. The princess cleared her throat. "As I was saying, inter-dimensional travel is extremely, in fact, a near impossible task. But that doesn't mean it ISN'T possible. You did it somehow. Now, if I could just find out about that rainbow, I could figure something, I could get you back."

         "That's amazing. Thanks so much Twilight!!!!" Butters squeaked.

         "Now, you guys should go to sleep. You could take the guest room." The colts, even Cartman, walked up the stairs happily. Stan stayed behind. He looked up gratefully at the purple mare. "You really think you can do it?"

         "Like I said, it's not impossible." She replied.

         "So, will you tell anyone else?"

         Twilight thought for a second, then winked and said, "how about this is just our little secret."
