Movie Night and a Spell Gone Wrong

"Shut up, ya bitch!" Jessica screamed at the bleach blonde girl in front of her. She set her fiery green eyed gaze at the previously mentioned bleach blonde, Bailey. Jessica brushed a piece of her short black hair behind her ear, she swore if this girl said another thing about Becky, she would upgrade from small talk to kicking her ass. Bailey looked at Jessica and walked past her, and straight towards Becky.

"So," Bailey started, her voice almost dripping with mischievousness. "you're the bitch that this piece of shit is defending?" Becky looked into her cruel brown eyes. An icy feeling swept over Becky as she saw Bailey's hand grab her backpack. Becky made a desperate attempt at snatching it back, but it was to no avail. "Oooo, what have we here? It must be something you don't want anyone to touch, am I right?"

"Give it back!!!" Becky cried. Bailey's wondering hands crept into the pack right as an uppercut was delivered to her left cheek. A huffing Jessica stood right where the blonde once was. Jessica grabbed the simple white pack from the blonde, who then stated running to the nearest class room. Seeing this, Becky got up and screamed! Not a scream of frustration, but one from a murder mystery when somebody finds the corpse of the victim.

"What happened?!" Shouted Mr. Davis as he rushed to find who screamed. Noticing a crying Becky, he then made his way to her. "What happened?!" Becky looked at him, then started into his shoulder as he patted her on the back. he pulled her away from him after a minute. "Okay, can you tell me what happened?"

"Bailey tried to steal my backpack, it has the last thing my birth mom gave me!!!" Becky said as she kept crying, just not as hard. "She threatened to break it!!" she then grabbed him into another bear hug. Mr. Davis looked simply shocked. he picked her up and started the trek to the office, a certain dark haired kick ass behind them. Jessica looked up at Becky, eyes pleading for mercy. Becky just smiled and winked at her before getting back into character. Jessica was impressed to say the least. This was going to be an interesting relationship.

~~~~

Jessica still thought fondly of the first time she and Becky had met. Sure, in the end they were all given detention and had gotten grounded, but it was worth it to have met each other. At the moment they were hanging out at Becky's house, just watching old animations. She looked up from her phone, and saw they were about to watch her favorite movie of all time: Who Framed Rodger Rabbit?

"Aww, hell yeah!" Jessica shouted as the loading sign went away signalling the start of the movie. Jessica reached into the popcorn bowl, expecting to feel the warmth of popcorn, but felt slightly warmer than room temp plastic. She looked into the bowl and saw nothing but molded plastic and popcorn kernels. "Damnit!"

"Jess!" Shouted Becky, turning her head so fast, her long, curly, light brown pony tail whipped her in the face, causing laughter from her prone to cursing friend. She glared at Jessica until she shut her mouth forcefully with one hand. "You know how I feel about that!"

"Oh, come on!"

"No excuses!" Becky said as she grabbed the empty bowl and filled it with more popcorn. She then sat back down, the popcorn bowl in her hands. Seeing this Jessica let out a groan of frustration. Becky just smirked at this.

Thunder flashed out side, causing one of them to look out the window, the anther jumped while simultaneously screaming. Jessica looked at Becky, knowing her phobia of anything to do storms. Jessica decided to go and get Becky's mom, she knew how to deal with her phobia the best.

"Mrs. Rich!" Called Jessica. She waited for a reply, but was greet with silence. Jessica was confused, she knew that Becky parents were here, maybe they went to bed already? No, it was only nine. Jessica got an unsettling feeling, something was wrong was this. Jessica looked at Becky, she was pale as a ghost. "B-becky? W-where are y-your parents?"

"I have no freaking clue!" Becky shouted. Jessica knew what was going on, Becky was having a seizure. Becky's body started writhing and shaking. Jessica grabbed her friend and held her in her arms as she cried. 'Please be a dream! Be a Dream! Be a dream!!!' She thought as held her friend tightly, making sure she didn't hurt herself.

"God! Help her! Please!!!" Jessica shouted as Becky shook harder than she ever has before. Becky started to moan and groan, almost like a trapped animal. Then she stopped. Jessica looked at her, in fear and hope. It became horror instantly. Becky's eyes rolled back into her head, while that freaked Jessica out, she knew that Becky could do that since she was a kid. What terrified her was when she faintly started whispering voices, not her own voice.

~~~~~

Twilight held her head in her hooves, slowly rubbing her temples. This the fifth time at attempting that blasted spell! She couldn't beleive this, she was an alicorn! How could such a simple spell evade her grasp?! Twilight looked at the notes and groaned... What will it take for this spell to work?!

"Twi?" Called a young female voice. Twilight turned her head to see a teenage yellow earth pony walk into her little lab. Apple Bloom had grew to be a lovely young mare, and caught the attention of more than just one stallion her age. Twilight smiled at her apprentice. Apple Bloom spotted Twilight over by her desk and trotted over, a joyful air around her. "Y'all never guess whats happened!"

"Does it have to do with... Um, Sna--" Twilight started, but stop at the look that Bloom gave her. "Sni--"

"Twilight!" Cried Apple Bloom. Twilight smiled sheepishly as Bloom covered her face with her hoof. Twilight giggled at the teen's reaction, thinking of her own childhood. She had done the same thing where her mom talked to her about crushes. But when she saw Bloom's cherry red face, she couldn't help but laugh.

"So, who's the lucky colt?" Asked Twilight as she pulled up a chair with her magic. Bloom sat down and then started looking through the latest notes that twilight had taken from the most recent attempt at the spell. Twilight's smile slowly dissipated, she knew that look on Bloom's face, it screamed 'Again?!'.

"Twi--"

"I will do it," Twilight said as she snatched back her notes with her purple aura. "I'll get it... just a few more tweaks..."

"Why does this matter to you so much?" Bloom asked, her muzzle in a frown with worry. Twilight just slumped in her chair. Twilight started crying, making Bloom's expression grow to one of sadness. Bloom attempted to place her foreleg around twilight, but was quickly brushed off by one of Twilight's wings. Bloom quietly left the room to let her mentor cry in peace.

~~~~~

Jessica stood there in shock as her friend stopped crying. Becky had just... she didn't know what she had done. She had started one of her normal seizures, then she started talking in voices she could never had made for the life of her. Now she was confused and waking up, like she had just gone to sleep, much less just acted out a scene from a soap opera!

"What the?!" Jessica said, finally getting a word out of her mouth since the stat of this entire thing. Becky looked at her with almost glazed over eyes, as if she still wasn't fully aware of reality yet. Becky placed one hand on the floor in an attempt to get up, but her arm gave out on her mid getting up. This made Jessica wake up from her mental freak out.

"Hey, hey!" Said Jessica as she ran to help her friend. She looked out the window as she helped Becky up, the freak storm had stopped. Jessica got a feel of this event foreshadowing something much bigger. She searched her pockets for something, anything to help Becky. She stumbled across her cell phone, an old shitty flip-phone, but it had service. She dialed nine-one-one as she held her friend close to herself.

A Right and a Wrong and Another Wrong Calculation

"Oh, my god..." Whispered Becky as she ate food from dinner, the one she missed while the ambulance took her away. She had been released from the hospital later that night, when her parents came to pick her up. She had stayed quiet, no matter how many questions they threw at her. She wouldn't talk until she got some answers out of, Jess. Jess had been speechless the entire time, even with all the chaos and shit going on around her. Becky could tell something was gravely wrong, she could never keep her mouth shut for this long. When they got home, Becky practically dragged, Jess into her room for the questioning. In the end, Jessica told Becky everything, the storm, the seizure, the voices... needless to say, Becky was horrified.

"I... I did that?" Becky asked her friend, who was currently on her bed, grazing through an old Harry Potter book. Jessica looked up from the book, a grave look in her eye. She casually folded one of the pages corners into a dog's ear. She slowly got up and made her way towards her friend. Becky was a little weirded out by the thought that Jessica was putting into each action. She was used to her friend being '~~Kill~~ Action now, questions later,' But you could tell that there was thought put into each action. Then Jessica sped up her steps, until she had her arms wrapped around her friend, in a gentle, loving hug. At first, Becky didn't know what to do, sure, she and Jess had hugged before, but not like this...

"I swear, if you ever scare me like that again, I'll beat the hel-- h-heck outta ya!!" Said Jessica as she was... You know that mixture of crying and laughing most of you have been through at least once in your life? Make it happy, then you'll know what the girls were going through. They slowly let go of each other... They looked each other in the eyes... They both felt the happiness start to slip away. They didn't want that, no one would. Then a thought popped into Becky's head.

"Hey, do you want to watch... my little pony?" She said the last part in a barely audible whispered. Jessica rolled her eyes at this attempt to get her to watch that STUPID TV show. And she was shocked, most of the time her plans were... filled with more... She didn't know, pizzazz. She slugged Becky on the arm before leaving the room.

"Hey, love ya," Jessica said as she left the room and a shocked Becky.

...

dot dot dot.

DOT DOT DOT!

"DID YOU JUST SAY, 'LOVE YA'?!"

~~~~~

"So, heard you went to the hospital yesterday," Said Bailey, the same girl from the first time Becky and Jessica met, still bitchy as ever!!! She had stuck to bullying them after all these years, as well as many other students. She had changed in looks, but not much else. She was now one of the hottest girls in school, probably just cause she had a double D. Becky just rolled her eyes at the popular girl's comment, knowing that it would end in an insult. Becky just decided to walk away, it would be safer for everyone that way. But wanting to make Bailey feel like the insulted one for a change, she quickly turned around and marched up to her.

"Yeah, was at the hospital last night," Said Becky in a confident voice, even though in side she was so, as Pinkie Pie would call it, nervicited. "Bad news, they still don't have a cure for bitchiness! But, they had the next best thing: Ducktape!" She threw a roll of ducktape at her as she ran to her third period class, laughing the entire way there. When she arrived at the door, she took a breather. She couldn't believe that she, the one who was always broke up the fight, started a fight was the queen bee herself! Now this was too good to be true. She entered her classroom, an air of confidence around her. Today... is going to be perfect.

~~~~~

"Ha!" Screamed Jessica as she ate her chicken sandwich. Becky had just told her what happened at the beginning of third period, Jessica was loving it! There goes my right to call you a goodie goodie, she thought as she listened to her friend switch from her story of Bailey, to a rant about Ms. Willows totally unfair grading system. Jessica wasn't really listening, so much as just nodding her head when ever Becky took a breath. She looked out at the city, it was a beautiful sight. They were on the roof of their school, it was much easier to enjoy themselves when they were alone.

"So, what do you wanna do later?" Asked Jessica once Becky finished her rant. Becky looked at Jessica with surprise. This was starting to freak Becky out. Her being thoughtful once, it's cute. Twice, odd, but not too bad. Three times? Now you're entering freaky town!

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Said Becky as she stood up in front of her friend. Jessica wore a confused look, not knowing what she did wrong. Becky looked into Jessica's eyes. Jessica leaned back, feeling more and more uncomfortable with being stared at. Becky closed her eyes and sighed, realizing how stupid she must look. She looked Jess, trying to understand her, but that was an impossible feat. She could never read into her actions, she was so... illogical.

"What did I do?" Jessica asked Becky as she hopped down from the ledge. She looked at her friend, she was crying at the moment. Jessica wondered what she had done wrong. Jessica tried to hug her friend, but Becky backed away from Jessica, as if she had the plague. Jessica just stood there as her friend sat there crying, trying to comprehend what she could have done wrong. She thought she had done so well, being nice, hugging, saying 'Goodnight.' Jessica sat down, as she looked up at her friend, she found that she had started shaking. Not in the way most people do when they cry, but short burst. Becky had a look of sheer horror on her face.

"Th-th-this i-isn-n't a-a sei-eizure!!!" Screamed Becky as she started shaking much more violently. Jessica's eyes shrunk down to pin-pricks, knowing what was about to happen.

"Beck!" She cried as she held her again. 'Not again! No!

~~~~~

"Twilight!" Cried Apple Bloom as she rushed over to her mentor. Twilight lied on the floor motionless. She was burned in places, and cut and/or bruised in others. Twilight's eyes fluttered open, taking in the wreck that was her lab. She groaned, not out of pain, but frustration. She was still in her lab, not with...

"Twi! Are ya hurt? Say somethin'!" Demanded Bloom as she helped the alicorn up off off the ground. Twilight wrapped her wing around bloom to help her regain balance. She held her hoof to her forehead, trying to make the pain subside. She tried to stand up, but fell onto her knees almost instantly. Twilight ear twitched to her right, signalling that something was making noise to her right.

"Bloom..." Twilight barely whispered, as she turned around to see a sphere of green light floating three feet off the ground. Bloom turned around to see the orb, a look of horror spreading across her face when she saw it. "I think we have a problem..."

Everyone's so Screwed

Twilight looked at the floating orb in the middle of her lab. She looked at it with disbelief, trying to find what went wrong in her calculations. Nothing. Everything was perfect. How... how could this have happened?

"Oh, for the love of Luna!!!" Screamed Twilight as her marched up to the orb, a look of disgust on her face. She stared into its green, glassy surface. She noticed something moving underneath its surface. Twilight lifted up her left hoof and wiped off the surface of the sphere. She could barely make out a figure... What was that, a diamond dog? No. Something... else. Apple Bloom trotted up to Twilight, who had stopped talking before the expected rant could be carried out. Apple Bloom looked at the orb over Twi's shoulder, trying to make out what she saw.

"What is it, Twi?" Asked Bloom as she attempted to match the silhouette to her encyclopedia of Everfree wildlife. Twilight looked at her pupil's eyes, seeing the same spark of curiosity she had at her age, reminding her why she had chosen Apple Bloom to be her student; none of the other fillies her age found her interesting, for her knowledge at least. Twilight pressed her forehead to the orb, trying to get a closer look. She could she the figure more clearly now. It was a...

"It's a... human?!" Exclaimed Twilight as she tried to press her head closer, trying to see more clearly. She couldn't believe her eyes. Twilight couldn't believe this. "How could my spell have gone this wrong?! Buck! BUCK! BUCK!!!" she screamed, note she used a word rhyming with 'buck', and not buck.

Bloom watched her mentor break down crying, finally seeing that she couldn't do this. Bloom looked at Twilight, then at the orb. She trotted over to the orb, looking at it's smooth surface. She placed her hoof on it and pressed down. When it wouldn't budge, she pressed harder. She then turned her hind legs to it, and bucked it; it shattered into millions of tiny crystals.

Twilight saw this and cried even harder. Not because she cared about that orb, just cause it breaking... she didn't know why, but it terrified her. Bloom went back to her mentor, and laid beside her, comforting her.

Neither knew the power they had unleashed or the events that were yet to come, nor the choice that would determine happiness or darkness.

"Becky!" Cried Jessica as she saw a faint glow emit from her own hands. She blinked, trying to get what ever was casting a glare out of her eyes. She then looked at Becky, who was also starting to glow a faint green.

"Oh, my God!" She screamed, realizing that this wasn't a trick of the eye, a reflection, or a dream. She then started trying to brush off the light, knowing that it would be in vain. She then thought of something. "Dear Lord, I know I haven't talked to you in a while, but please! Let Becky, and to a lesser extent me, live! I will never say the F-bomb or the C-word ever again!!! And I'll never pick pocket again, unless I'm in desperate need for money! And... I'll... I'll go to church!!!"

She then saw something.

She looked at the green spark floating in front of her face. She slowly wiped away her tears, feeling a rising hope in her chest. She tried to grasp why she felt this hope in her chest, but she decided to forget it and go with it, for once in her life.

The spark started to float away from them, but it stopped when Jessica and becky didn't follow. Jessica picked up her unconscious friend and moved forward, towards the light. The light moved at a steady pace, but one that Jessica and Becky could keep up with. 'I'm following a tiny, green, glowing light, taking God knows where, carrying my best friend that I've known since pre-k, whom is currently knocked out... Shit.' Thought Jessica as she followed the light to the edge of the building. Jessica looked at the edge. She took a deep breath. 'Dear Lord, please... let me know if this light is the work of you or the unholy one.' Jessica prayed in her head.

She looked up and saw a feather float down onto the light. It was a pure white feather. Jessica took that as the sign she needed. She took a deep breath in as she backed up from the edge. She was about five feet from the edge, she hoped that was far enough. She sprinted towards the edge, and when she got there... she jumped.

The light didn't move. Jessica reached for it. She grabbed it, feeling an unbearable burning shoot through her hand, to her arm, to the rest of her body. She she tried to open her eyes, but she couldn't do it yet. She tried to open her eyes after the pain passed from her head, and could open them.

The green light around them was growing stronger. It wasn't just a little glow around them anymore, it was like they were glow sticks come to life. She noticed that she was changing color somehow. Her glow was becoming lighter. She looked down at becky, seeing her glow slowly turn into a light blue. Jessica looked back at her own glow, it had turn into a light yellow. She couldn't believe this, she was floating above an alley with her best friend in her arms, and they were both glowing! I mean... what the hell?!

Then it all stopped. The burning, the glowing, the floating, everything. It stopped. The air rushed up from beneath them. Jessica's scream pierced the calm silence that filled the area around the school. The crunch of breaking bone filled Jessica's ears. Black filled Jessica's eyes as she blacked out.

~~~~~

Becky could hear something similar to, what was it, white noise? No, she could hear words of the like. It was voices. Shouting, crying, ordering voices, there was no telling who they belonged to.

Becky tried to move, only to be assaulted with hellish pain. She screech in agony, wishing she was in hell instead of this. She felt hot tears flow down her face, something was wrong, but she couldn't focus on that with the pain flowing through vain where blood should have been. She started shaking and throbbing, she wanted this to stop so badly, she would have made a deal with the devil.

"How could this have happened to my baby?!" Screamed a voice, somewhere near here, but far away at the same time? Becky tried to get a grip, but she still could stop crying. She knew that voice, she had been raised by it. She could hear her mother screaming and sobbing at the same time. Becky felt an icy chill go down her spine, her mother was great in crisis. If her mom was crying about what had happened to her... Oh, God. What could have happened?!

"Sir, she's flatlining!!" Cried one of the many terrified and desperate voices. 'Flatlining?! FLATLINING?!' Cried Becky in her head. 'No. No! NO! I can't die like this! I can't die! God, no!'

"Clear!!!"

The noise faded, the pain slowly dissipated, and Becky whispered only one word.

Je...ssi...ca...

~~~~~

The smell of fresh flowers and oatmeal filled Jessica's nose as she slowly woke up. She looked around the room, still in that half-awake-half-asleep mode. She just saw a plain light blue walls, a chest of drawers with a large mirror that wasn't aimed at her, and she was lying on a small, dull bed. Jess looked at the covers that were currently covering her body, they were printed with green and blue over lapping polka-dots. She brought her arm up to get the 'sand' out of her eyes. Only to be met with splitting pain.

"Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!!" She cried as she held her hand out in front of her face to see what the hell they could have put on her hand to almost crack her skull! When Jess looked at her hand one word came to her mind: fake. This had to be fake. It was a hoof... a HOOF! Jessica started tearing up, her mouth agape with shock; this had to be a sick joke. She was almost afraid to see her other arm and see if the same thing had happened. 'Get a grip! This all a bad dream, so... why not investigate?' Thought Jessica, trying to convince herself this was a dream, well more like a nightmare.

Jessica quickly lifted up her left arm to her face, seeing the same thing, only this one had a bandage around it. Jessica wondered why. She tried to poke it, but was quickly reminded that she now had this stub instead of her... beautiful, handy-dandy fingers. She proceeded to roll her eyes at her weird and at times disturbing train of thought. She then tapped her left arm with her right ha--hoof.

"Ouch," She said in a slightly peeved tone, but not one of pain or hurt. She knew that she probably had some pain killer flowing around in her system, but then... how much had she really hurt her head?!

"Ugh... why do I have to check on the frea--" Said a blonde nurse, looking around twenty as she walked into Jessica's room. She looked up from the clipboard she was ranting to, only to see that the 'freak' was awake and staring at her with a pissed off look on her face. The nurse dropped her clip board, seeing that Jess was awake. The nurse clapped her hand over mouth as she let out a muffled scream, causing Jessica to jump.

"You're...!" Shouted the nurse as she started to back up, trying desperately to reach the door without making obvious. Jessica didn't know what to do... she was a freak? She didn't want to make things worse.

"Uh, listen I don't know how long I've been out... or a horse," Jess said trying to lighten the mode, but she only freaked out the nurse.

"YOU CAN TALK!!!" Screeched the nurse nurse as she hit the fire alarm and fled. Jessica could only sit there in shock. She had scared a twenty year old out of her wits, just because of her looks! Jessica felt something hot and wet flow down her cheek. She felt her insecurity start flowing out of her body in a mass of tears and body shaking sobs.
