Rainbow's Rebirthby Shadowmane PX-41ChaptersPower UnleashedAwakeningA Time Long ForgottenPower UnleashedTime has passed since the defeat of Lord Tirek, and all the damage has been pretty much undone. Equestria was returning to a lush, green, harmonious state. Earth Ponies were back to working the land, Pegasi were fixing up the weather, and Unicorns were stabilizing the flow of magic. Twilight had only had a month or so to adapt to her new castle being the replacement for the library, and still the memories were eating away at her. The very house she had been given to her, turned into a pile of ash in a split second by that monstrous centaur. She still had to remain strong though, after all, "When Celestia Closes A Door, She Opens A Window." She was pacing the corridors of her new castle back and forth, a sign that she was in deep thought. She needed to know everything about her new form of light; Rainbow Power. "It's gotta be here somewhere." She began walking down the corridors and searching the doors, in the hope that there would be a library somewhere. "Could it be this one?" Twilight opened it and found a bizarre sight. "Well, this is a surprise." She saw what looked like a large swimming pool, no doubt for her and her friends. "I'll have to tell them about this one day. But not now, I need to find the library." And with that, Twilight went out of the room and back down the corridors, looking for her new library. But not before she took the time to cast a spell on the door. She was firing a laser at the door, and controlling it to make it spell out a word. Once she was done, her laser inscription read "Swimming Pool." So that she wouldn't choose the same door continuously. "That should map it out better for me." Then she ran off in search for her fabled library. Twilight passed by multiple doors, checking each one as she went and leaving her marks on the doors. Eventually, she had marked "Dining Hall, Lounge, Training Barracks, Observatory." And even "Hidden Garden." "Darnit! Where is that library?!" Twilight eventually gave up and fell to the floor, she had been running herself ragged in this behemoth of a castle and she was finally out of breath. "Twilight, calm down. You're just adjusting to your new castle, this thing is natural for princesses." Spike said as he noticed Twilight's gasps for air. "Natural?! This castle is gargantuan!" Twilight said, clearly frustrated as she had that frustrated look on her face. "I don't know how Princess Celestia and Princess Luna adapted to castles of this size, and quite honestly, I don't even want to know how!" "I don't even know." Spike shrugged as he looked at Twilight's many inscriptions. "But I'm guessing you're not following their methods." Twilight sighed. "Sorry, Spike. It's just that, I was always accustomed to my old library before any of this box and keys thins started. After I lost the library. I feel like I'm unable to find my was around my own households anymore." She hung her head as she recalled the library, every memory of it, right before Tirek brutally murdered it by fire. Spike took notice by Twilight's mournful looks and tried to cheer her up. "Twilight, are you still bothered by that?" "Spike, I've been living in that library for the entire time since I've moved to Ponyville." She said, not showing any signs of happiness. "Now that's it's been destroyed, and all the books with it, I feel like I'm not ready for a role like this." "Aww, come on, Twi. That's not how a princess should be acting." A voice from behind her said. This voice belonged to Rainbow Dash, she was there with the rest of Twilight's friends. "And although I don't know much about princesshood, I know for a fact that you shouldn't be sad now." "She's right, Twilight." Pinkie said. "No pony, not even a princess should have to bear a frown. Now then, allow me to turn that frown upside down." She lifted Twilight up and turned her upside down to get the smile she was looking for. "That usually cheers me up, but not today, unfortunately." She turned back inside to the corridors. "Is somethin' on yer mind, Sugarcube?" Applejack asked Twilight, in an attempt to find out the cause of her sadness. "I'd be happy to tell you, if you'd all just follow me down the hallways here." Twilight led her friends down the corridors and resumed her quest for the library. "Ever since the events with Tirek, I feel like I've lost all sense of house navigation with this new castle." Twilight looked neutral now, she wasn't sad but she wasn't happy either. "Also, Princess Of Friendship is a massive role to play in Equestria, and with all the responsibilities I have to fulfill. I don't feel like I'm ready." "Why do ya think that?" Applejack said, hooked onto Twilight's explanation. "There's at least 10 million ponies in Equestria, AT LEAST." Twilight outstretched her hooves. "And some aren't willing to accept friendship and unity." "Well duh, there's all kinds of ponies and other things like that." Pinkie said. "Firstly, there's that meanie grffon Gilda, she's never gonna make any friends with that attitude. She followed by that mean bully, Diamond Tiara. And I'm starting to think Silver Spoon is nothing more than her yespony when she goes against the Cutie Mark Crusaders." "Ok, Pinkie, we get it." Twilight said "Then there's that jerk Sunset Shimmer who stole your crown that night. And then there's that Suri pony back in Manehatten who stole Rarity's design and make her a jerk towards us..." Pinkie kept running her mouth for an indefinite period of time. "Once Pinkie starts, it's nearly impossible for her to stop." Applejack said with a smile as Twilight was starting to crack a small grin. "Wait a second. This door hasn't been marked yet." Twilight said as she looked at a pair of majestic double doors which almost touched the ceiling. It had a golden frame and a diamond pattern. The diamonds themselves were purple with a green border. "Could this be the library you're looking for?" Fluttershy asked as Twilight stepped closer to the doors. "It might be, we'll just have to wait and see." Twilight put her aura on the two handles and took a deep breath. Once she opened her eyes again, she had her aura open the doors. They were quite heavy so she did it slowly. Once she opened up a crack in the doors, there was some blinding light for a few seconds, this soon disappeared, and the girls walked through the doors. The sight inside the two doors would have made any other librarian jealous. The number of books in this gargantuan library could rival that of any other library, including the one in the Crystal Empire. Twilight made sure to mark the door with the word "Library" before she closed it. "Whoa. This might keep you busy for a while, don't ya think, Twilight?" Asked Rainbow Dash. "It might, let's just see what we've got here first." Twilight flew over to one of the giant bookcases on one of the upper floors. She pulled out a few books. "Advanced Transformation? Ability Buffing? Free Creation Spells? I must have died and gone to heaven!" Twilight was clearly happy now, pulling out a couple dozen more new books for her to examine. "I think Twilight's happy now. My work here is done." Pinkie said as she decided to join Twilight in her reading. "Not ta be rude, Pinkie, but all ya did was talk. Twilight found this here library by herself." Applejack said as she took a seat on one of the couches on the bottom. "Really, I didn't even notice. And personally, I knew where the library was all along, I just decided to make the long walk to it more entertaining than it would be normally. And she's happy now, so my work here is done. I'm only 3 smiles away from a celebratory Party Cannon Fireworks Party." "Hey girls, look what I found!" Twilight said from one of the upper floors as she waved a rainbow coloured book. It's a book on our new power!" The girls quickly ran up to see Twilight, in her usual book reading position, reading up on a book with rainbow writing and archaic pictures all over. "What is it, Twilight?" Rainbow Dash asked as they were all looking at the book she was looking at. "It's a book on our new forms." Twilight said as she was eyeing the inscriptions inside the book. "And look, it's an ancient poem focused around it." When darkness grips the land Rainbow Power will make a stand Should the light be alive and bold The warriors become foaled Light can fight the darkness But can't be overused For using it then will youthen you And give you a mother to be amused "What does it mean?" Fluttershy decided to ask. "I think it's some kind of riddle related to our new power, which this book is deciding to call Rainbow Power." Twilight said as she closed the book up. "Well, is there something in the book to call upon this power?" Rarity decided to ask her as she levitated the rainbow-coloured book back up to where it was initially. "I don't know, but I think we have to focus hard, like with the Elements of Harmony before this." "Well, if we are gonna call on another power fer us to use, might ah suggest we do it outside the library first? No offense, Twilight." Applejack explained as she begun to walk down the stairs to get to the door again. "None taken, Applejack. I've had my fill for the day." Twilight said as she too began to walk down the stairs. "Come on, girls." Soon, all the girls were following her. As they all walked out of the colossal library, Twilight lit up her aura to close the door behind her. "This should be a good place." Twilight said as she and her friends arrived in a large round hall, perfect for testing out their new power. "Now be sure to focus hard and concentrate on your Rainbow Power self." Twilight shut her eyes and began to focus hard, as did everypony else in the room. They focused hard on their new forms, even though it was hard to perfectly visualize it. There were spirals of rainbow-coloured magic spiraling up around their hooves and eventually flooding into their bodies like a gale of snow. It was powerful, yet the girls still had their eyes closed, focusing harder and harder on Rainbow Power. The magic swarmed their bodies turning them rainbow-coloured all over. It kept coming and coming, until finally, there was a powerful explosion from everyone of the Mane 6, all of them screaming as the explosion of rainbow consumed them all. From the outside of the castle, there was a web of rainbow-coloured lightning spewing out from the top of Twilight's castle, this only lasted for 10 seconds before it disappeared, leaving a powerful forcefield around the castle. A few townsponies had taken notice of this phenomenal occurence, but then shrugged it off as it wasn't doing anything bad to them. They believed if something bad was going happen, Twilight would be there to save them from it. Little did they know that Twilight wasn't going to show up after that... Author's Note My god, it's been forever! Sorry if I've been away for a while, I was busy with some other things, namely the MLP app, Call of Duty: Ghosts, school, eating, etc. But I'm back, just for you guys. I hope you liked the first chapter of Rainbow's Rebirth, and I hope to receive some constructive comments on how to improve it. So, there were explosions from the Mane 6, and a web of rainbow lightning in the sky. The force field still lies as a mystery to the townsponies, but knowing AR fics like this one, you know what this means already. See you soon, guys. I hope you keep this story going, much like my others. AwakeningThe force of the blast radius left Twilight and Friends very woozy, and it took them a while to get up and get their bearings. Twilight was the first to get up, and straight away, she could feel limitless power surging within herself. She knew that Rainbow Power had been achieved. The first thing she could see was a white alicorn with a rainbow mane. She initially thought it was Princess Celestia for a few moments, but then she dismissed that claim, when she saw all seven colours of the rainbow in this alicorn's mane. She tried to get to her feet to greet the alicorn like the princess she was, but quickly noticed that once she got up, the alicorn looked huge. No, that couldn't have been it. She knew something was up, and didn't like it one bit. The alicorn came closer, and picked Twilight up from the floor she was on, so that she could get a closer look at her. She merely smiled before looking at Twilight's friends. "Looks like somepony didn't guess the riddle right, didn't they?" She said in a calming tone towards Twilight. Twilight tried to speak to her guest clearly, but this is what came out. "Oopsies, I guess I messed tings up didn't I?" The odd thing about that, was that Twilight's voice sounded higher-pitched and more foalish than usual. "Wait, why I tawk wike a foaw?" "It's because you ARE a foal, Princess Twilight." She said calmly, to break it down simply, just for her. "Since there's no entities of darkness controlling Ponyville or any other Equestria city, Rainbow Power overloaded and turned you all into foals." "Foaws?" Twilight looked around to see herself in a nearby mirror. She saw that she was indeed a foal, but there was something different about how she looked. Her hair was a different colour down the centre, next, she saw her Cutie Mark all over her hooves, something she didn't notice the first time. She then turned to see her friends, they too were foals. And they too had different colours in their manes and tails, besides Rainbow Dash, who got rainbow coloured wings instead. Twilight heard that she was still a princess, so she looked down at her wings, which also had a different colour than usual. "Don't worry, Twilight. All warriors chosen by Rainbow Power make this mistake." The alicorn said in a calming and soothing tone. "It's a common accident." "May I ask yoo someting?" Twilight spoke to her carrier in an attempt to learn something from her. "Who awe yoo, anyways?" "I am Princess Utopia." She spoke clearly to Twilight. "I am the envoy of Rainbow Power, and the first to control its' power." "So, thewe wewe othew ponies chosen by Wainbow Powew?" She asked, even though it seemed like she already knew the answer now. "Yes. You see, since the dawn of time, as Equestria was just introducing Ponies as a species, a powerful darkness swept the land." She began to tell Twilight a story, and her ears were listening closely now. "The power was too much for anypony to bear, so the gods themselves, designated warriors with strong hearts, to bear their a piece of their power." "From there on out, the first warriors of Rainbow Power were designated. Utilising the powers of the gods, they banished the darkness to the farthest plane of existence, away from Equestria. However, the warriors of Rainbow Power knew the darkness would return someday, so they were able to peer into the future and find more strong-hearted ponies, capable of wielding such tremendous power. Once they did, the chronicled it all on an ancient tapestry, and buried it for hundreds of thousands of years. After which, they sealed themselves in the future, so as to aid anyone who pulled this power out without a darkness to use it on. You and your friends pulled off many great feats in the past, in a multitude of worlds, Princess Twilight. But giving Tirek the power of four demigod alicorns was enough for the seal to be broken, and for us to give you the true power of the gods. You have a massive part to play in the defense of Equestria. And I shall do my best to aid you and your friends in your time of need." "How long does dis foawhood wast?" Twilight decided to ask Princess Utopia. "Well, you've only just tapped into your Rainbow Power... So by my calculations, you'll be foals for a week, at most." She gave her answer, and Twilight seemed to be okay with it. "I jus have one mowe question to ask yoo." She said as she was lifted up onto Princess Utopia's back. "Why did yoo buwy da tapestwy?" "We were unsure whether or not the forces of darkness would be trying to gather intel on the next warriors of Rainbow Power. But we decided to bury it nonetheless. Better safe than sorry, after all." She explained clearly. "Now then, we need to get you six into a more suitable environment." She picked up the remaining foals and walked out of the room. She then proceeded to walk down the corridors and stairs to find a door that hadn't been marked by Twilight. She heard light giggles from her back, but she didn't even need to turn her head to hear that Twilight was enjoying herself. They saw a door that hadn't been marked yet on one of the lower levels of the castle, so Utopia stopped at that one. She cast a rainbow coloured aura on the door, and a flash of light engulfed it. This woke the remaining foals and they looked up to see what was going on. After the light dissipated, the door had been marked "Nursery" and Utopia carried the six foals into its' confines. "Here we are, Spirits Of Harmony. Make yourselves at home." She said as she let the Mane 6 down so that they could see what there was to see. "Oh, and you can just call me mama for the next week, until you get better." The foals were too busy with examining their new room. It was all padded, to ensure they wouldn't get hurt. There was a wide variety of toys for them to use, and there were padded shapes and plush animals that dwarfed the Mane 6 in size. Beyond the activities, there was 6 cribs at the back of the room. 3 on one side, and three on the other. In the middle of the 6 cribs, was a changing table, so the Mane 6 weren't far from a changing, even if they had some night accidents. "So, how awe we foaws?" Applejack was the first to ask after she had gotten a good look on her new surroundings. "Didn't you heaw Mama, Appwejack? She said dat we bwought dis on ouwsewves." Pinkie butted in, as she usually does and began explaining to Applejack. "Appawentwy, Wainbow Powew onwy wowks when some supewpowewed meanie thweatens ta take ovew Equestwia." "So, widout anyone to battwe, Wainbow Powew turns us into foaws?" Dash asked, even though the answer was obvious now. "I guess so." Rarity said next, feeling her extra locks of hair, generated by Rainbow Power. "Wook on da bwight side of dis, this only wasts fow a week. Why not have a wittwe fun wid it?" "I guess you'we wight about dat, Wawity." Dash smiled as she crawled over to the giant plushies and cuddled a bunch of them in her hooves. "Come on, evewypony! Dis don't wast fowevew and onwy comes wound once in a wifetime. Have a wittwe fun befowe we tuwn back to nowmaw. Come on!" This was enough to convince the rest of the Mane 6 to get stuck into the foalish fun. Soon the rest of the foals got something to do. Fluttershy was exploring the nursery, seeing what was on offer for her. Dashie had the ability to fly for some reason, and she was getting an aerial view of the place. Pinkie was claiming up some padded shapes, rolling around in the heavenly padding on top of some of them. Rarity was organising and stacking blocks like there was no tomorrow. Applejack was with Princess Utopia, being cuddled by the rainbow-maned alicorn. And finally, Twilight was using her power to make a group of dolls dance around her. "Hehe, who knew dat foawdom was dis much fun?" Twilight said as she addressed her friends. "It's made even bettew by da fact dat we can fwy and use magic." Dashie said as she swooped down next to Utopia, who let Applejack down for a bit. "By da way, how awe we abwe ta fwy and use magic as foaws?" "You have Rainbow Power to thank for that." Utopia smiled as she examined the rest of the foals. "Rainbow Power not only gives you a limitless source of power, but it also enhances your magic and flight ten thousandfold." "Hehe, I'm having wots of fun wid dis." Pinkie said as she bounced around for a bit. Soon she was laughing with no end. Eventually, after a good 10 seconds, a powerful aura emanated from Pinkie. It spread out around the entire nursery and everything was floating in midair, including the ponies. "Whoa! Wat's happening?" Applejack asked as she began floating off the floor as well. "Pure Rainbow Power is starting to leak out of Pinkie. It's completely severed this room's gravity." Utopia said as she spread her wings to fly. "I'll calm her down and then give you something to control yourselves." "Actuawwy, dis is pwetty fun aftew de initiaw shock." Rarity said as she performed some technical moves in the air, laughing all the while. After a while, Rarity was also exerting an aura, similar to Pinkie's. This time, it conjured a ball of magic from her horn. She thought of a foal dress, and as if by magic, the ball created precisely what she was thinking, before it vanished back inside of her horn. "Wawity. Whewe did yoo get a dwess fwom?" Twilight asked as she suddenly noticed Rarity was wearing the dress she had conjured up. "I dun know. I jus waughed a lot and den dis speww conjuwed up a dwess fow me." She explained as she swooped close to the ground now. "It's actuawwy pwetty comfy." She said as she wriggled around in the soft fabrics. "How did she do dis?" Applejack asked as she noticed Rarity's foal dress. "Rainbow Power is quite unpredictable, especially when harnessed by foals." Utopia explained to Applejack simply. "When foals control the power of Rainbow Power, they can do extraordinarily otherworldly things. "Now, I just need to calm Pinkie down and then I can help the others get down." Utopia pulled the giggling Pinkie into her furry coat. Pinkie stopped laughing and began to coo lightly as she snuggled into Utopia's nice, soft coat. Once she stopped, gravity returned to normal, and everything landed with a crash back in its' original positions. Surprisingly, nothing was damaged after that fall. She also saw that Rarity and Applejack were plunging to the floor due to the sudden return of gravity, so Utopia picked the two of them up in her aura and pulled them into her fur as well. She knew that Fluttershy, Dashie and Twilight were able to keep up in the air due to their Rainbow Power wings, so she didn't help them. "That was a close call." She said as she began to cast a spell with her aura. "But this should keep that under control." She conjured up six strings with her aura. At first, the foals didn't know what she was doing. But this was explained once she conjured up 6 rainbow-coloured pacifiers. Each one with the individual Cutie Marks of the Mane 6, as well as their names imprinted on the plastic backs. She then threaded the strings through the pacifiers and magically adjoined the two ends of each string together, to make a ring to go around the necks of each of the girls. She then placed the rings around the necks of Twilight and her friends, so that the pacifiers were dangling under their chins. "This should keep your magical laughter in check." She smiled as she lifted them up and took them to the changing table. "I almost forgot than you six weren't wearing diapers. Allow me to fix that." She laid down the Mane 6 on the six marked changing spots on the table, then opened some draws below the table to find what she was looking for. She pulled out 6 diapers and a bottle of foal powder, for a perfect set of changes. She then simultaneously lifted the flanks of the Mane 6 up, powdered the open diapers, slipped them under their flanks, put their flanks down, tied the three ends up, and finally lifted the Mane 6 up so that she could kiss each of them. "There we go. Now doesn't that feel much more snuggly?" She asked the foals and they only babbled and nodded. These powdered diapers felt a lot more fluffy than a regular foal's diaper for some reason. "Glad to know you feel that way. now you should get some playtime in." She said as she let them down to play once more and keep a watchful eye on them. "And if you feel hungry, just let me know. I'm sure I can give you some delectable breast milk." The foals just ran into the fun. They might have been superpowered and could do everything at once, but they decided to do their own separate activities and try and keep their powers in check. "We shouwd do dis mowe often." Rarity said as she and Dashie played pattycake with each other. "It's weawwy fun." "And I dun even know wat my waughtew can do, but I bet it'ww be fun." Dash smiled as they began to sing a pattycake song. "Wat a wondewfuw ting." Twilight said as she began snuggling into a nearby pink blanket. "I jus hope dat da week nevew ends." She smiled and went off for a little nap as Utopia began cocooning Twilight in the blanket, so that she looked like one of those foals in the hospital viewing area. "Such cute little girls." Utopia smiled as she saw each of the Mane 6, feeling quite content in their own activities. "It takes me back to when we accidentally pulled this off back in our time." She smiled as she called back her memories as a Rainbow Power foal in her own head. "And if they ever want to play and pretend as foals again, they can just call on me." Author's Note I'm sorry that this took a while. I had a lot of stuff to get done. I got the new Call of Duty Ghosts DLC Map Pack: Invasion, and there's a lot of stuff to do on that. I mean, Departed was a very smooth map, once you play it a few times. And the Death Mariachi is so, SOOOOO rewarding once you call it in. It's like you control everyone once they die in battle. And, I will admit, I actually like Favela now that I've had some extended time with it. I guess it's because the only suitable weapon for Favela is the Bizon. I mean come on, that hipfire can't not be used well on this map! Also, I've Platinum'd Call of Duty Ghosts, so there's nothing more that I can do with it, to get some sweet swag. Besides the Clan Wars here and there. (The next one starts on Wednesday the 16th of July if you're interested.) But anyways, I hope you enjoyed the chapter, be sure to give me some CONSTRUCTIVE criticisms, and as always, have a nice day. A Time Long ForgottenAs the Rainbow Powered foals played, they had also noticed something about their temporary mother, Princess Utopia. Not only was Utopia smiling, but it also looked like she was casting a spell on the world outside for some unexplained reason. "I know this is a hard thing to do, but it's the only thing we can do at a time like this." She said as she lowered her head and intensified the aura. "Even though the forcefield will push back everything that attacks it, we can't take any chances." "Wat awe yoo doing, Mama?" Twilight asked, as she took the pacifier out of her mouth to talk to her for that brief question before putting it back in. "I'm taking this entire castle to another plane of existance, where my friends ended up in after they passed away." Utopia said as she entire castle begun to shake. "Even though this castle is safe enough already, we cannot be completely sure that something will want to strike." From the outside, Ponyville could see that the castle itself was starting to move. It levitated a few feet off the ground and vibrated quite violently. As the castle increased its' elevation, it cast a rainbow light down upon Ponyville, encasing it in a rainbow dome before it disappeared. As for the castle itself, it flew upwards into the sky until a rainbow-coloured vortex appeared in the sky, engulfing the castle within the minute. The residents of the town could only watch as Twilight's castle disappeared from Ponyville altogether. From the inside, the girls were now looking out the window, looking at the bedazzling rays of light that were now dancing in front of their eyes. They were all trying their best to grab the light, completely happy and lost within fits of laughter.As they laughed, their powers began to kick in once more. Rarity conjured up a little rainbow in her hands, cooing as she made the light dance in her hooves, Pinkie completely severed gravity once more, causing the whole group to float in midair once more. Applejack's laughter merely wrapped her in pink blankets, which had a very familiar feel to her, Dashie's laughter turned something that wasn't rainbow coloured and made it into a foal toy for her to play with. Fluttershy's laughter had turned her into a living stuffed animal, to which she applauded at. At the same time, it had brought the other stuffed animals to life, and they were either playing with her, or playing with her friends. And finally, Twilight had turned her area into outer space, she merely cooed as she flew through the lit up cosmos and touched the stars, giggling every time they made a tinkling noise when she touched them. "I dun know wat Mama was tawking about. Dis is fun!" Dashie said as she turned a drawer into a rainbow coloured rattle and began to shake it. "Hehe, I dun evew wanna stop doing dis." "Neithew do I." Said Applejack as she was now cocooned in the blankets and was breastfeeding off a disembodied nipple which she had conjured up. "I nevew evew wanna stop waughing, not wid aww dis wove and cawing I'm geting." Utopia merely watched as the 6 of them let their new powers distract them. Watching the 6 of them playing, knowing they would be unharmable in this new state, was very uplifting for her. Eventually, she giggled and used her magic to create a foal version of her, to keep the Mane 6 occupied. She too was able to talk, but much like the Mane 6, it was in foalish english. "That'll keep them happy until the end of this trip." Utopia smiled as she looked at all 7 of the playing foals with a smile. She then looked back out the window, to see how far through the vortex the castle was in its' voyage across the plains of existance. Once the trip through the rainbow vortex ended, the castle slowed down as it started to land in the middle of a hill overlooking a town. At first, the foals thought that this was a mirrored version of Ponyville, but they had failed to notice the changes in this new existance. Not only were the buildings coloured with spacial colours, they were also in different places than usual and were literally dripping with magic. And if that wasn't enough, the sky wasn't blue as it was in Equestria. Instead, the sky looked like outer space was right here, hanging above their heads at all times. Besides the background of this new area, the ponies in this existance also had something otherworldly about them. Each and every one of them was shrouded in a glowing white mist, from their heads to their tails. "Welcome to Spectrum. The eternal afterlife for those chosen by Rainbow Power." Utopia said as she finally got things back in order in the room and got the Mane 6 to calm down once more. Once she turned her foal self back into magic and placed it back in her horn, Utopia picked up the Mane 6 and placed them in chairs made out of pure magic. Once they were all sat down, she strapped them in with another powerful spell and placed the pacifiers back in their mouths. "In this world, you no longer need to worry about your magic." Utopia smiled as she levitated the six foals out of the room and down the corridors. "In Spectrum, everypony who utilizes Rainbow Power has limitless magic and flight here, regardless of their power or age." "So, we can fwy and use magic hewe?" Fluttershy asked as Utopia came ever so closer to the castle's front doors. "Yes, but to make sure you do not run off, I'm attaching leashes to you." She cast another spell on each of the Mane 6 and now their waists were constricted by rings of magic, rings which had streams of magic that flowed directly into Utopia's horn. "This way, none of you will get separated and lost." "But Mama! I no wanna be weashed!" Pinkie said as she tried to yank the magic leash off of her waist. Not only was she unable to move the ring, she couldn't even touch it. "I no wanna weash!" "Pinkie, this is for your own good!" Utopia said as she began to pick up her voice a little. "Every foalized Rainbow Power pony who came with me tried to run off once they got here. EVERY one of them tried to explore like the foals that they were." "I'm not taking any chances." She said as she opened the door to the world outside, coating her and the Mane 6 with the otherworldly glowing mist as well. "And as for Twilight and Rarity, don't get any ideas either. Only I can remove the leashes since I was the one who casted them." The six foals were levitated outside to the town of Spectrum, where they tried interacting with all the ponies they could see. They tried waving, talking, even touching them, but to their surprise, they couldn't even touch or hear the misted ponies. "Uum, Mama? Why can't we tawk to ow touch any of da ponies hewe?" Fluttershy asked, looking at Utopia with curious, yet sad eyes. "This is your first time here, so I need to make sure you have the Spectrum Blessing before you can interact with the townsponies." She said as she walked down through the road towards a nearby fountain. "We can do it now, if you'd like." "Yes pwease, Mama." They all said, calm and accepting. They wanted to make some new friends, be adored by these new friends, and have as pleasurable an experience as possible for their time in Spectrum. When Utopia stopped at the nearby fountain, she took the Mane 6 from their magic chairs, dismissed the magical leashes and purely levitated them over the fountain's waters. In Spectrum, water looked a lot like the space-sky itself, but it was more blue than the space itself. The fountain itself looked like a rainbow which had been split in half so that it looked like two. It had multiple levels of water in the center and spiraling downwards into the main fountain itself. There were also streams of Spectrum water flowing out of the holes in the rainbows. Utopia dropped the six foals into the water and let them sink down. The foals could only watch as they descended deeper and deeper into the fountain's waters. They felt like they were going to drown for a few moments, but then they were encased in bubbles, enabling them to breathe once more. "Hehe, dis bubbwe is pwetty fun." Rarity said as she pushed herself against the bubble's membrane, causing herself to move the whole bubble at the same time. "Dis bwessing ting isn't dat bad actuawwy." "I feew wike a pwetty faiwy baby pwincess." Pinkie giggled as she was now pushing the bubble forward at will, smiling all the while and almost even colliding with the other foals. Suddenly, Dashie yawned, a yawn which everyone could hear as she was bound to fall asleep now. "Is it weawwy dat eawwy in da mowning?" She said as she started to fall asleep. "Wooks wike you'we not de onwy one." Applejack said as she stretched her hooves in a yawn-like fashion. "I tink we shouwd aww have naptime now." "Otay den. Night-night, evewypony." Fluttershy said as she placed a hoof in her mouth and fell asleep whilst suckling on it. "Night-night." The rest of the foals said as they all fell asleep as well. With that, everypony was sleeping, none of their eyelids moving an inch. They were all lying on their backs with their body parts motionless and their smiles growing. As they slept, the bubbles sank deeper and deeper into the abyss of water. The six foals were merely sucking on their hooves at this point, making sleep talk as the suckling continued. Even as a shine of light engulfed the six of them, they were merely sucking on their hooves, not even stirring when the light shone on them. Once the Mane 6 awoke back in Spectrum, they were greeted by a whole group of Rainbow Power ponies, all of them accompanied by Princess Utopia. They didn't notice the other ponies straight away, as they were adjusting to the light once more, but once they did, they could tell that they had received the Spectrum Blessing. "Welcome back, sleepyheads." Utopia said in a playful tone as she ruffled the manes of the Mane 6. "How was the Spectrum Space?" "Oh, dat pwace?" Rarity was the first to answer this response. "It was fun. We wewe fwying awound in bubbwes wike cute wittwe faiwies, den aww of a sudden, we fewt tiwed and went Night-night." "That means you got it easy." Utopia smiled as she gave the six ponies their pacifiers once more. "The Spectrum Blessing experience is completely different depending on how strong your bonds are." "If it's a strong bond, such as yours, you'll just get it given to you, simple as that." She said as she showed the whole thing to the six of them, courtesy of a magical projection. "But even a strong bond could have had something hard, even for someone at your current age. You see, the true blessing-" "Is different depending on your very souls." A male voice said from out of nowhere. Utopia turned around and saw a pegasus and a unicorn walking up to her. "The blessing the six of you received was simple foal's play, due to the fact that your friendship has been a strong force not only in Equestria, but in other worlds as well." The second voice said, this time it was female. As the two eventually got to the eye-contact range of the group, Utopia cracked a smile as she finally realized who was walking up to greet her. She could never forget the blue unicorn with indigo coiffed hair, nor the red pegasus with spiky white hair. "Hello, Utopia." They both said together, sharing a smile as they greeted her warmly. The Mane 6 could already piece this scenario together, these two ponies were Utopia's friends when she was a Rainbow Power warrior. Author's Note And it is done. So, now that the Mane 6 have the Spectrum Blessing, they're completely recognized in Spectrum now. Interesting story about how I came up with the idea for Spectrum. I watched a tiny snippet of the new Doctor Who and got bored with it fast. I then remembered the Stolen Earth/Journey's End episode where the Daleks took earth from the Solar System and placed it in a completely different cosmos. So that's kind of where the inspiration for Spectrum comes from, the other part was simple, I had to mirror Ponyville and make a few changes. And if anyone on this story doesn't like this idea of Spectrum, that is YOUR opinion, not mine. Don't get clouded by rage if you think this story made a mistake, you just have to grin and bear it for the time being. And for those of you who are criticizing, make sure it's CONSTRUCTIVE, I don't want some pointless criticisms once this is over. Furthermore, this is the first chapter I wrote after coming back from BUCK 2014, so that's kind of reinvigorated me to continue updating my fics. I plan on writing many more chapters now over the next few days, but I'm heading up to Grandma's again this Thursday because my parents are going up to Prague for 4 days. So it might slow down there.
Power UnleashedTime has passed since the defeat of Lord Tirek, and all the damage has been pretty much undone. Equestria was returning to a lush, green, harmonious state. Earth Ponies were back to working the land, Pegasi were fixing up the weather, and Unicorns were stabilizing the flow of magic. Twilight had only had a month or so to adapt to her new castle being the replacement for the library, and still the memories were eating away at her. The very house she had been given to her, turned into a pile of ash in a split second by that monstrous centaur. She still had to remain strong though, after all, "When Celestia Closes A Door, She Opens A Window." She was pacing the corridors of her new castle back and forth, a sign that she was in deep thought. She needed to know everything about her new form of light; Rainbow Power. "It's gotta be here somewhere." She began walking down the corridors and searching the doors, in the hope that there would be a library somewhere. "Could it be this one?" Twilight opened it and found a bizarre sight. "Well, this is a surprise." She saw what looked like a large swimming pool, no doubt for her and her friends. "I'll have to tell them about this one day. But not now, I need to find the library." And with that, Twilight went out of the room and back down the corridors, looking for her new library. But not before she took the time to cast a spell on the door. She was firing a laser at the door, and controlling it to make it spell out a word. Once she was done, her laser inscription read "Swimming Pool." So that she wouldn't choose the same door continuously. "That should map it out better for me." Then she ran off in search for her fabled library. Twilight passed by multiple doors, checking each one as she went and leaving her marks on the doors. Eventually, she had marked "Dining Hall, Lounge, Training Barracks, Observatory." And even "Hidden Garden." "Darnit! Where is that library?!" Twilight eventually gave up and fell to the floor, she had been running herself ragged in this behemoth of a castle and she was finally out of breath. "Twilight, calm down. You're just adjusting to your new castle, this thing is natural for princesses." Spike said as he noticed Twilight's gasps for air. "Natural?! This castle is gargantuan!" Twilight said, clearly frustrated as she had that frustrated look on her face. "I don't know how Princess Celestia and Princess Luna adapted to castles of this size, and quite honestly, I don't even want to know how!" "I don't even know." Spike shrugged as he looked at Twilight's many inscriptions. "But I'm guessing you're not following their methods." Twilight sighed. "Sorry, Spike. It's just that, I was always accustomed to my old library before any of this box and keys thins started. After I lost the library. I feel like I'm unable to find my was around my own households anymore." She hung her head as she recalled the library, every memory of it, right before Tirek brutally murdered it by fire. Spike took notice by Twilight's mournful looks and tried to cheer her up. "Twilight, are you still bothered by that?" "Spike, I've been living in that library for the entire time since I've moved to Ponyville." She said, not showing any signs of happiness. "Now that's it's been destroyed, and all the books with it, I feel like I'm not ready for a role like this." "Aww, come on, Twi. That's not how a princess should be acting." A voice from behind her said. This voice belonged to Rainbow Dash, she was there with the rest of Twilight's friends. "And although I don't know much about princesshood, I know for a fact that you shouldn't be sad now." "She's right, Twilight." Pinkie said. "No pony, not even a princess should have to bear a frown. Now then, allow me to turn that frown upside down." She lifted Twilight up and turned her upside down to get the smile she was looking for. "That usually cheers me up, but not today, unfortunately." She turned back inside to the corridors. "Is somethin' on yer mind, Sugarcube?" Applejack asked Twilight, in an attempt to find out the cause of her sadness. "I'd be happy to tell you, if you'd all just follow me down the hallways here." Twilight led her friends down the corridors and resumed her quest for the library. "Ever since the events with Tirek, I feel like I've lost all sense of house navigation with this new castle." Twilight looked neutral now, she wasn't sad but she wasn't happy either. "Also, Princess Of Friendship is a massive role to play in Equestria, and with all the responsibilities I have to fulfill. I don't feel like I'm ready." "Why do ya think that?" Applejack said, hooked onto Twilight's explanation. "There's at least 10 million ponies in Equestria, AT LEAST." Twilight outstretched her hooves. "And some aren't willing to accept friendship and unity." "Well duh, there's all kinds of ponies and other things like that." Pinkie said. "Firstly, there's that meanie grffon Gilda, she's never gonna make any friends with that attitude. She followed by that mean bully, Diamond Tiara. And I'm starting to think Silver Spoon is nothing more than her yespony when she goes against the Cutie Mark Crusaders." "Ok, Pinkie, we get it." Twilight said "Then there's that jerk Sunset Shimmer who stole your crown that night. And then there's that Suri pony back in Manehatten who stole Rarity's design and make her a jerk towards us..." Pinkie kept running her mouth for an indefinite period of time. "Once Pinkie starts, it's nearly impossible for her to stop." Applejack said with a smile as Twilight was starting to crack a small grin. "Wait a second. This door hasn't been marked yet." Twilight said as she looked at a pair of majestic double doors which almost touched the ceiling. It had a golden frame and a diamond pattern. The diamonds themselves were purple with a green border. "Could this be the library you're looking for?" Fluttershy asked as Twilight stepped closer to the doors. "It might be, we'll just have to wait and see." Twilight put her aura on the two handles and took a deep breath. Once she opened her eyes again, she had her aura open the doors. They were quite heavy so she did it slowly. Once she opened up a crack in the doors, there was some blinding light for a few seconds, this soon disappeared, and the girls walked through the doors. The sight inside the two doors would have made any other librarian jealous. The number of books in this gargantuan library could rival that of any other library, including the one in the Crystal Empire. Twilight made sure to mark the door with the word "Library" before she closed it. "Whoa. This might keep you busy for a while, don't ya think, Twilight?" Asked Rainbow Dash. "It might, let's just see what we've got here first." Twilight flew over to one of the giant bookcases on one of the upper floors. She pulled out a few books. "Advanced Transformation? Ability Buffing? Free Creation Spells? I must have died and gone to heaven!" Twilight was clearly happy now, pulling out a couple dozen more new books for her to examine. "I think Twilight's happy now. My work here is done." Pinkie said as she decided to join Twilight in her reading. "Not ta be rude, Pinkie, but all ya did was talk. Twilight found this here library by herself." Applejack said as she took a seat on one of the couches on the bottom. "Really, I didn't even notice. And personally, I knew where the library was all along, I just decided to make the long walk to it more entertaining than it would be normally. And she's happy now, so my work here is done. I'm only 3 smiles away from a celebratory Party Cannon Fireworks Party." "Hey girls, look what I found!" Twilight said from one of the upper floors as she waved a rainbow coloured book. It's a book on our new power!" The girls quickly ran up to see Twilight, in her usual book reading position, reading up on a book with rainbow writing and archaic pictures all over. "What is it, Twilight?" Rainbow Dash asked as they were all looking at the book she was looking at. "It's a book on our new forms." Twilight said as she was eyeing the inscriptions inside the book. "And look, it's an ancient poem focused around it." When darkness grips the land Rainbow Power will make a stand Should the light be alive and bold The warriors become foaled Light can fight the darkness But can't be overused For using it then will youthen you And give you a mother to be amused "What does it mean?" Fluttershy decided to ask. "I think it's some kind of riddle related to our new power, which this book is deciding to call Rainbow Power." Twilight said as she closed the book up. "Well, is there something in the book to call upon this power?" Rarity decided to ask her as she levitated the rainbow-coloured book back up to where it was initially. "I don't know, but I think we have to focus hard, like with the Elements of Harmony before this." "Well, if we are gonna call on another power fer us to use, might ah suggest we do it outside the library first? No offense, Twilight." Applejack explained as she begun to walk down the stairs to get to the door again. "None taken, Applejack. I've had my fill for the day." Twilight said as she too began to walk down the stairs. "Come on, girls." Soon, all the girls were following her. As they all walked out of the colossal library, Twilight lit up her aura to close the door behind her. "This should be a good place." Twilight said as she and her friends arrived in a large round hall, perfect for testing out their new power. "Now be sure to focus hard and concentrate on your Rainbow Power self." Twilight shut her eyes and began to focus hard, as did everypony else in the room. They focused hard on their new forms, even though it was hard to perfectly visualize it. There were spirals of rainbow-coloured magic spiraling up around their hooves and eventually flooding into their bodies like a gale of snow. It was powerful, yet the girls still had their eyes closed, focusing harder and harder on Rainbow Power. The magic swarmed their bodies turning them rainbow-coloured all over. It kept coming and coming, until finally, there was a powerful explosion from everyone of the Mane 6, all of them screaming as the explosion of rainbow consumed them all. From the outside of the castle, there was a web of rainbow-coloured lightning spewing out from the top of Twilight's castle, this only lasted for 10 seconds before it disappeared, leaving a powerful forcefield around the castle. A few townsponies had taken notice of this phenomenal occurence, but then shrugged it off as it wasn't doing anything bad to them. They believed if something bad was going happen, Twilight would be there to save them from it. Little did they know that Twilight wasn't going to show up after that... Author's Note My god, it's been forever! Sorry if I've been away for a while, I was busy with some other things, namely the MLP app, Call of Duty: Ghosts, school, eating, etc. But I'm back, just for you guys. I hope you liked the first chapter of Rainbow's Rebirth, and I hope to receive some constructive comments on how to improve it. So, there were explosions from the Mane 6, and a web of rainbow lightning in the sky. The force field still lies as a mystery to the townsponies, but knowing AR fics like this one, you know what this means already. See you soon, guys. I hope you keep this story going, much like my others.
AwakeningThe force of the blast radius left Twilight and Friends very woozy, and it took them a while to get up and get their bearings. Twilight was the first to get up, and straight away, she could feel limitless power surging within herself. She knew that Rainbow Power had been achieved. The first thing she could see was a white alicorn with a rainbow mane. She initially thought it was Princess Celestia for a few moments, but then she dismissed that claim, when she saw all seven colours of the rainbow in this alicorn's mane. She tried to get to her feet to greet the alicorn like the princess she was, but quickly noticed that once she got up, the alicorn looked huge. No, that couldn't have been it. She knew something was up, and didn't like it one bit. The alicorn came closer, and picked Twilight up from the floor she was on, so that she could get a closer look at her. She merely smiled before looking at Twilight's friends. "Looks like somepony didn't guess the riddle right, didn't they?" She said in a calming tone towards Twilight. Twilight tried to speak to her guest clearly, but this is what came out. "Oopsies, I guess I messed tings up didn't I?" The odd thing about that, was that Twilight's voice sounded higher-pitched and more foalish than usual. "Wait, why I tawk wike a foaw?" "It's because you ARE a foal, Princess Twilight." She said calmly, to break it down simply, just for her. "Since there's no entities of darkness controlling Ponyville or any other Equestria city, Rainbow Power overloaded and turned you all into foals." "Foaws?" Twilight looked around to see herself in a nearby mirror. She saw that she was indeed a foal, but there was something different about how she looked. Her hair was a different colour down the centre, next, she saw her Cutie Mark all over her hooves, something she didn't notice the first time. She then turned to see her friends, they too were foals. And they too had different colours in their manes and tails, besides Rainbow Dash, who got rainbow coloured wings instead. Twilight heard that she was still a princess, so she looked down at her wings, which also had a different colour than usual. "Don't worry, Twilight. All warriors chosen by Rainbow Power make this mistake." The alicorn said in a calming and soothing tone. "It's a common accident." "May I ask yoo someting?" Twilight spoke to her carrier in an attempt to learn something from her. "Who awe yoo, anyways?" "I am Princess Utopia." She spoke clearly to Twilight. "I am the envoy of Rainbow Power, and the first to control its' power." "So, thewe wewe othew ponies chosen by Wainbow Powew?" She asked, even though it seemed like she already knew the answer now. "Yes. You see, since the dawn of time, as Equestria was just introducing Ponies as a species, a powerful darkness swept the land." She began to tell Twilight a story, and her ears were listening closely now. "The power was too much for anypony to bear, so the gods themselves, designated warriors with strong hearts, to bear their a piece of their power." "From there on out, the first warriors of Rainbow Power were designated. Utilising the powers of the gods, they banished the darkness to the farthest plane of existence, away from Equestria. However, the warriors of Rainbow Power knew the darkness would return someday, so they were able to peer into the future and find more strong-hearted ponies, capable of wielding such tremendous power. Once they did, the chronicled it all on an ancient tapestry, and buried it for hundreds of thousands of years. After which, they sealed themselves in the future, so as to aid anyone who pulled this power out without a darkness to use it on. You and your friends pulled off many great feats in the past, in a multitude of worlds, Princess Twilight. But giving Tirek the power of four demigod alicorns was enough for the seal to be broken, and for us to give you the true power of the gods. You have a massive part to play in the defense of Equestria. And I shall do my best to aid you and your friends in your time of need." "How long does dis foawhood wast?" Twilight decided to ask Princess Utopia. "Well, you've only just tapped into your Rainbow Power... So by my calculations, you'll be foals for a week, at most." She gave her answer, and Twilight seemed to be okay with it. "I jus have one mowe question to ask yoo." She said as she was lifted up onto Princess Utopia's back. "Why did yoo buwy da tapestwy?" "We were unsure whether or not the forces of darkness would be trying to gather intel on the next warriors of Rainbow Power. But we decided to bury it nonetheless. Better safe than sorry, after all." She explained clearly. "Now then, we need to get you six into a more suitable environment." She picked up the remaining foals and walked out of the room. She then proceeded to walk down the corridors and stairs to find a door that hadn't been marked by Twilight. She heard light giggles from her back, but she didn't even need to turn her head to hear that Twilight was enjoying herself. They saw a door that hadn't been marked yet on one of the lower levels of the castle, so Utopia stopped at that one. She cast a rainbow coloured aura on the door, and a flash of light engulfed it. This woke the remaining foals and they looked up to see what was going on. After the light dissipated, the door had been marked "Nursery" and Utopia carried the six foals into its' confines. "Here we are, Spirits Of Harmony. Make yourselves at home." She said as she let the Mane 6 down so that they could see what there was to see. "Oh, and you can just call me mama for the next week, until you get better." The foals were too busy with examining their new room. It was all padded, to ensure they wouldn't get hurt. There was a wide variety of toys for them to use, and there were padded shapes and plush animals that dwarfed the Mane 6 in size. Beyond the activities, there was 6 cribs at the back of the room. 3 on one side, and three on the other. In the middle of the 6 cribs, was a changing table, so the Mane 6 weren't far from a changing, even if they had some night accidents. "So, how awe we foaws?" Applejack was the first to ask after she had gotten a good look on her new surroundings. "Didn't you heaw Mama, Appwejack? She said dat we bwought dis on ouwsewves." Pinkie butted in, as she usually does and began explaining to Applejack. "Appawentwy, Wainbow Powew onwy wowks when some supewpowewed meanie thweatens ta take ovew Equestwia." "So, widout anyone to battwe, Wainbow Powew turns us into foaws?" Dash asked, even though the answer was obvious now. "I guess so." Rarity said next, feeling her extra locks of hair, generated by Rainbow Power. "Wook on da bwight side of dis, this only wasts fow a week. Why not have a wittwe fun wid it?" "I guess you'we wight about dat, Wawity." Dash smiled as she crawled over to the giant plushies and cuddled a bunch of them in her hooves. "Come on, evewypony! Dis don't wast fowevew and onwy comes wound once in a wifetime. Have a wittwe fun befowe we tuwn back to nowmaw. Come on!" This was enough to convince the rest of the Mane 6 to get stuck into the foalish fun. Soon the rest of the foals got something to do. Fluttershy was exploring the nursery, seeing what was on offer for her. Dashie had the ability to fly for some reason, and she was getting an aerial view of the place. Pinkie was claiming up some padded shapes, rolling around in the heavenly padding on top of some of them. Rarity was organising and stacking blocks like there was no tomorrow. Applejack was with Princess Utopia, being cuddled by the rainbow-maned alicorn. And finally, Twilight was using her power to make a group of dolls dance around her. "Hehe, who knew dat foawdom was dis much fun?" Twilight said as she addressed her friends. "It's made even bettew by da fact dat we can fwy and use magic." Dashie said as she swooped down next to Utopia, who let Applejack down for a bit. "By da way, how awe we abwe ta fwy and use magic as foaws?" "You have Rainbow Power to thank for that." Utopia smiled as she examined the rest of the foals. "Rainbow Power not only gives you a limitless source of power, but it also enhances your magic and flight ten thousandfold." "Hehe, I'm having wots of fun wid dis." Pinkie said as she bounced around for a bit. Soon she was laughing with no end. Eventually, after a good 10 seconds, a powerful aura emanated from Pinkie. It spread out around the entire nursery and everything was floating in midair, including the ponies. "Whoa! Wat's happening?" Applejack asked as she began floating off the floor as well. "Pure Rainbow Power is starting to leak out of Pinkie. It's completely severed this room's gravity." Utopia said as she spread her wings to fly. "I'll calm her down and then give you something to control yourselves." "Actuawwy, dis is pwetty fun aftew de initiaw shock." Rarity said as she performed some technical moves in the air, laughing all the while. After a while, Rarity was also exerting an aura, similar to Pinkie's. This time, it conjured a ball of magic from her horn. She thought of a foal dress, and as if by magic, the ball created precisely what she was thinking, before it vanished back inside of her horn. "Wawity. Whewe did yoo get a dwess fwom?" Twilight asked as she suddenly noticed Rarity was wearing the dress she had conjured up. "I dun know. I jus waughed a lot and den dis speww conjuwed up a dwess fow me." She explained as she swooped close to the ground now. "It's actuawwy pwetty comfy." She said as she wriggled around in the soft fabrics. "How did she do dis?" Applejack asked as she noticed Rarity's foal dress. "Rainbow Power is quite unpredictable, especially when harnessed by foals." Utopia explained to Applejack simply. "When foals control the power of Rainbow Power, they can do extraordinarily otherworldly things. "Now, I just need to calm Pinkie down and then I can help the others get down." Utopia pulled the giggling Pinkie into her furry coat. Pinkie stopped laughing and began to coo lightly as she snuggled into Utopia's nice, soft coat. Once she stopped, gravity returned to normal, and everything landed with a crash back in its' original positions. Surprisingly, nothing was damaged after that fall. She also saw that Rarity and Applejack were plunging to the floor due to the sudden return of gravity, so Utopia picked the two of them up in her aura and pulled them into her fur as well. She knew that Fluttershy, Dashie and Twilight were able to keep up in the air due to their Rainbow Power wings, so she didn't help them. "That was a close call." She said as she began to cast a spell with her aura. "But this should keep that under control." She conjured up six strings with her aura. At first, the foals didn't know what she was doing. But this was explained once she conjured up 6 rainbow-coloured pacifiers. Each one with the individual Cutie Marks of the Mane 6, as well as their names imprinted on the plastic backs. She then threaded the strings through the pacifiers and magically adjoined the two ends of each string together, to make a ring to go around the necks of each of the girls. She then placed the rings around the necks of Twilight and her friends, so that the pacifiers were dangling under their chins. "This should keep your magical laughter in check." She smiled as she lifted them up and took them to the changing table. "I almost forgot than you six weren't wearing diapers. Allow me to fix that." She laid down the Mane 6 on the six marked changing spots on the table, then opened some draws below the table to find what she was looking for. She pulled out 6 diapers and a bottle of foal powder, for a perfect set of changes. She then simultaneously lifted the flanks of the Mane 6 up, powdered the open diapers, slipped them under their flanks, put their flanks down, tied the three ends up, and finally lifted the Mane 6 up so that she could kiss each of them. "There we go. Now doesn't that feel much more snuggly?" She asked the foals and they only babbled and nodded. These powdered diapers felt a lot more fluffy than a regular foal's diaper for some reason. "Glad to know you feel that way. now you should get some playtime in." She said as she let them down to play once more and keep a watchful eye on them. "And if you feel hungry, just let me know. I'm sure I can give you some delectable breast milk." The foals just ran into the fun. They might have been superpowered and could do everything at once, but they decided to do their own separate activities and try and keep their powers in check. "We shouwd do dis mowe often." Rarity said as she and Dashie played pattycake with each other. "It's weawwy fun." "And I dun even know wat my waughtew can do, but I bet it'ww be fun." Dash smiled as they began to sing a pattycake song. "Wat a wondewfuw ting." Twilight said as she began snuggling into a nearby pink blanket. "I jus hope dat da week nevew ends." She smiled and went off for a little nap as Utopia began cocooning Twilight in the blanket, so that she looked like one of those foals in the hospital viewing area. "Such cute little girls." Utopia smiled as she saw each of the Mane 6, feeling quite content in their own activities. "It takes me back to when we accidentally pulled this off back in our time." She smiled as she called back her memories as a Rainbow Power foal in her own head. "And if they ever want to play and pretend as foals again, they can just call on me." Author's Note I'm sorry that this took a while. I had a lot of stuff to get done. I got the new Call of Duty Ghosts DLC Map Pack: Invasion, and there's a lot of stuff to do on that. I mean, Departed was a very smooth map, once you play it a few times. And the Death Mariachi is so, SOOOOO rewarding once you call it in. It's like you control everyone once they die in battle. And, I will admit, I actually like Favela now that I've had some extended time with it. I guess it's because the only suitable weapon for Favela is the Bizon. I mean come on, that hipfire can't not be used well on this map! Also, I've Platinum'd Call of Duty Ghosts, so there's nothing more that I can do with it, to get some sweet swag. Besides the Clan Wars here and there. (The next one starts on Wednesday the 16th of July if you're interested.) But anyways, I hope you enjoyed the chapter, be sure to give me some CONSTRUCTIVE criticisms, and as always, have a nice day.
A Time Long ForgottenAs the Rainbow Powered foals played, they had also noticed something about their temporary mother, Princess Utopia. Not only was Utopia smiling, but it also looked like she was casting a spell on the world outside for some unexplained reason. "I know this is a hard thing to do, but it's the only thing we can do at a time like this." She said as she lowered her head and intensified the aura. "Even though the forcefield will push back everything that attacks it, we can't take any chances." "Wat awe yoo doing, Mama?" Twilight asked, as she took the pacifier out of her mouth to talk to her for that brief question before putting it back in. "I'm taking this entire castle to another plane of existance, where my friends ended up in after they passed away." Utopia said as she entire castle begun to shake. "Even though this castle is safe enough already, we cannot be completely sure that something will want to strike." From the outside, Ponyville could see that the castle itself was starting to move. It levitated a few feet off the ground and vibrated quite violently. As the castle increased its' elevation, it cast a rainbow light down upon Ponyville, encasing it in a rainbow dome before it disappeared. As for the castle itself, it flew upwards into the sky until a rainbow-coloured vortex appeared in the sky, engulfing the castle within the minute. The residents of the town could only watch as Twilight's castle disappeared from Ponyville altogether. From the inside, the girls were now looking out the window, looking at the bedazzling rays of light that were now dancing in front of their eyes. They were all trying their best to grab the light, completely happy and lost within fits of laughter.As they laughed, their powers began to kick in once more. Rarity conjured up a little rainbow in her hands, cooing as she made the light dance in her hooves, Pinkie completely severed gravity once more, causing the whole group to float in midair once more. Applejack's laughter merely wrapped her in pink blankets, which had a very familiar feel to her, Dashie's laughter turned something that wasn't rainbow coloured and made it into a foal toy for her to play with. Fluttershy's laughter had turned her into a living stuffed animal, to which she applauded at. At the same time, it had brought the other stuffed animals to life, and they were either playing with her, or playing with her friends. And finally, Twilight had turned her area into outer space, she merely cooed as she flew through the lit up cosmos and touched the stars, giggling every time they made a tinkling noise when she touched them. "I dun know wat Mama was tawking about. Dis is fun!" Dashie said as she turned a drawer into a rainbow coloured rattle and began to shake it. "Hehe, I dun evew wanna stop doing dis." "Neithew do I." Said Applejack as she was now cocooned in the blankets and was breastfeeding off a disembodied nipple which she had conjured up. "I nevew evew wanna stop waughing, not wid aww dis wove and cawing I'm geting." Utopia merely watched as the 6 of them let their new powers distract them. Watching the 6 of them playing, knowing they would be unharmable in this new state, was very uplifting for her. Eventually, she giggled and used her magic to create a foal version of her, to keep the Mane 6 occupied. She too was able to talk, but much like the Mane 6, it was in foalish english. "That'll keep them happy until the end of this trip." Utopia smiled as she looked at all 7 of the playing foals with a smile. She then looked back out the window, to see how far through the vortex the castle was in its' voyage across the plains of existance. Once the trip through the rainbow vortex ended, the castle slowed down as it started to land in the middle of a hill overlooking a town. At first, the foals thought that this was a mirrored version of Ponyville, but they had failed to notice the changes in this new existance. Not only were the buildings coloured with spacial colours, they were also in different places than usual and were literally dripping with magic. And if that wasn't enough, the sky wasn't blue as it was in Equestria. Instead, the sky looked like outer space was right here, hanging above their heads at all times. Besides the background of this new area, the ponies in this existance also had something otherworldly about them. Each and every one of them was shrouded in a glowing white mist, from their heads to their tails. "Welcome to Spectrum. The eternal afterlife for those chosen by Rainbow Power." Utopia said as she finally got things back in order in the room and got the Mane 6 to calm down once more. Once she turned her foal self back into magic and placed it back in her horn, Utopia picked up the Mane 6 and placed them in chairs made out of pure magic. Once they were all sat down, she strapped them in with another powerful spell and placed the pacifiers back in their mouths. "In this world, you no longer need to worry about your magic." Utopia smiled as she levitated the six foals out of the room and down the corridors. "In Spectrum, everypony who utilizes Rainbow Power has limitless magic and flight here, regardless of their power or age." "So, we can fwy and use magic hewe?" Fluttershy asked as Utopia came ever so closer to the castle's front doors. "Yes, but to make sure you do not run off, I'm attaching leashes to you." She cast another spell on each of the Mane 6 and now their waists were constricted by rings of magic, rings which had streams of magic that flowed directly into Utopia's horn. "This way, none of you will get separated and lost." "But Mama! I no wanna be weashed!" Pinkie said as she tried to yank the magic leash off of her waist. Not only was she unable to move the ring, she couldn't even touch it. "I no wanna weash!" "Pinkie, this is for your own good!" Utopia said as she began to pick up her voice a little. "Every foalized Rainbow Power pony who came with me tried to run off once they got here. EVERY one of them tried to explore like the foals that they were." "I'm not taking any chances." She said as she opened the door to the world outside, coating her and the Mane 6 with the otherworldly glowing mist as well. "And as for Twilight and Rarity, don't get any ideas either. Only I can remove the leashes since I was the one who casted them." The six foals were levitated outside to the town of Spectrum, where they tried interacting with all the ponies they could see. They tried waving, talking, even touching them, but to their surprise, they couldn't even touch or hear the misted ponies. "Uum, Mama? Why can't we tawk to ow touch any of da ponies hewe?" Fluttershy asked, looking at Utopia with curious, yet sad eyes. "This is your first time here, so I need to make sure you have the Spectrum Blessing before you can interact with the townsponies." She said as she walked down through the road towards a nearby fountain. "We can do it now, if you'd like." "Yes pwease, Mama." They all said, calm and accepting. They wanted to make some new friends, be adored by these new friends, and have as pleasurable an experience as possible for their time in Spectrum. When Utopia stopped at the nearby fountain, she took the Mane 6 from their magic chairs, dismissed the magical leashes and purely levitated them over the fountain's waters. In Spectrum, water looked a lot like the space-sky itself, but it was more blue than the space itself. The fountain itself looked like a rainbow which had been split in half so that it looked like two. It had multiple levels of water in the center and spiraling downwards into the main fountain itself. There were also streams of Spectrum water flowing out of the holes in the rainbows. Utopia dropped the six foals into the water and let them sink down. The foals could only watch as they descended deeper and deeper into the fountain's waters. They felt like they were going to drown for a few moments, but then they were encased in bubbles, enabling them to breathe once more. "Hehe, dis bubbwe is pwetty fun." Rarity said as she pushed herself against the bubble's membrane, causing herself to move the whole bubble at the same time. "Dis bwessing ting isn't dat bad actuawwy." "I feew wike a pwetty faiwy baby pwincess." Pinkie giggled as she was now pushing the bubble forward at will, smiling all the while and almost even colliding with the other foals. Suddenly, Dashie yawned, a yawn which everyone could hear as she was bound to fall asleep now. "Is it weawwy dat eawwy in da mowning?" She said as she started to fall asleep. "Wooks wike you'we not de onwy one." Applejack said as she stretched her hooves in a yawn-like fashion. "I tink we shouwd aww have naptime now." "Otay den. Night-night, evewypony." Fluttershy said as she placed a hoof in her mouth and fell asleep whilst suckling on it. "Night-night." The rest of the foals said as they all fell asleep as well. With that, everypony was sleeping, none of their eyelids moving an inch. They were all lying on their backs with their body parts motionless and their smiles growing. As they slept, the bubbles sank deeper and deeper into the abyss of water. The six foals were merely sucking on their hooves at this point, making sleep talk as the suckling continued. Even as a shine of light engulfed the six of them, they were merely sucking on their hooves, not even stirring when the light shone on them. Once the Mane 6 awoke back in Spectrum, they were greeted by a whole group of Rainbow Power ponies, all of them accompanied by Princess Utopia. They didn't notice the other ponies straight away, as they were adjusting to the light once more, but once they did, they could tell that they had received the Spectrum Blessing. "Welcome back, sleepyheads." Utopia said in a playful tone as she ruffled the manes of the Mane 6. "How was the Spectrum Space?" "Oh, dat pwace?" Rarity was the first to answer this response. "It was fun. We wewe fwying awound in bubbwes wike cute wittwe faiwies, den aww of a sudden, we fewt tiwed and went Night-night." "That means you got it easy." Utopia smiled as she gave the six ponies their pacifiers once more. "The Spectrum Blessing experience is completely different depending on how strong your bonds are." "If it's a strong bond, such as yours, you'll just get it given to you, simple as that." She said as she showed the whole thing to the six of them, courtesy of a magical projection. "But even a strong bond could have had something hard, even for someone at your current age. You see, the true blessing-" "Is different depending on your very souls." A male voice said from out of nowhere. Utopia turned around and saw a pegasus and a unicorn walking up to her. "The blessing the six of you received was simple foal's play, due to the fact that your friendship has been a strong force not only in Equestria, but in other worlds as well." The second voice said, this time it was female. As the two eventually got to the eye-contact range of the group, Utopia cracked a smile as she finally realized who was walking up to greet her. She could never forget the blue unicorn with indigo coiffed hair, nor the red pegasus with spiky white hair. "Hello, Utopia." They both said together, sharing a smile as they greeted her warmly. The Mane 6 could already piece this scenario together, these two ponies were Utopia's friends when she was a Rainbow Power warrior. Author's Note And it is done. So, now that the Mane 6 have the Spectrum Blessing, they're completely recognized in Spectrum now. Interesting story about how I came up with the idea for Spectrum. I watched a tiny snippet of the new Doctor Who and got bored with it fast. I then remembered the Stolen Earth/Journey's End episode where the Daleks took earth from the Solar System and placed it in a completely different cosmos. So that's kind of where the inspiration for Spectrum comes from, the other part was simple, I had to mirror Ponyville and make a few changes. And if anyone on this story doesn't like this idea of Spectrum, that is YOUR opinion, not mine. Don't get clouded by rage if you think this story made a mistake, you just have to grin and bear it for the time being. And for those of you who are criticizing, make sure it's CONSTRUCTIVE, I don't want some pointless criticisms once this is over. Furthermore, this is the first chapter I wrote after coming back from BUCK 2014, so that's kind of reinvigorated me to continue updating my fics. I plan on writing many more chapters now over the next few days, but I'm heading up to Grandma's again this Thursday because my parents are going up to Prague for 4 days. So it might slow down there.
