Prologue
“Doctor Williamson! The patient who had problems with hallucinations! He had gone mad again!” The nurse said.
Great, the only thing I needed today was that crazy guy.
When I entered the room of maddened patient, I was shocked, he had nearly destroyed everything, Shattered window there, his oxygen mask at the other end of the room, he even teared down his IV. “Help me! They want to kill me! HELP ME!” He was screaming very loud, loud enough to make our ears nearly explode. Can you just shut the hell up?
“Calm down—” I looked at the information panel on the top of his bed, his name was George “— George, it’s Okay…”
“No! Go away! You want to kill me! you all want to kill me!” he started to become even more wild and furious, last time he was in this situation, he nearly killed himself. Ah God, stop being a moron, George. He was still furious, kicking the poor nurses.
“For God’s sake George! Calm down!—” I moved closer to him “—CALM DO—” I was interrupted by a pain in my chest, and then I looked at the source of the pain, only to find out I’m stabbed in the chest by dear George. And I died by a madman, nice, I hope at last I can have some peace in death… I passed out.
“Okay Spike, this is the last time we try this spell, if it fails, I will give up, but imagine what happens if it works! I will have a clone that will do anything I want!”
“It will worth the time and effort if we can have the clone organize the library,” Spike said, making Twilight giggle.
“The book says it can do everything I can do Spike! and whenever I want, I can make the clone disappear!” Twilight said.
“Will the clone stay permanently if you dont make it vanish?” Spike asked, excited if they can always have a servant.
“No Spike, the spell will last for two months,but certain actions will make the spell effects to vanish faster, but if it works, we may do it again. For now, let me focus on the spell” Twilight said, before casting a spell on the middle of a glyph she’d drawn five minutes ago, making it start to glow.
“please work, pleaseeeeeeee,” Twilight said while begging the spell to work.
I was in a long hallway, walking. The hallway was strange, there was stars all around me. It was a beautiful sight.
So, this is the… end? I’m dead, walking in a hallway, toward only-God-knows-where? I hoped I will die after My Little Pony series stop broadcasting. I laughed to myself, but I was truly sad, MLP was the only thing I liked about this world, people always said this is for childrens and things like this, but they were fools, the show gave me hope, and hope was the only thing I needed.
I hope this hallway to end soon, it’s starting to make me bored.
But then, there was a light in front of me, a purple –no, it was lavender– portal, I was curious.Let’s see what is awaiting me in there…
And then, I jumped into the portal.
Twilight was dying from excitement from what she was seeing, there was a lavender alicorn in front of her, but something was wrong, she was scared!
“Hello?” Twilight asked.
“Who are you?” The clone asked, now Twilight was sure something had gone wrong. her clone didn’t recognized her mentor!
“I’m Twilight Sparkle, but why you don’t recognize me? I’m The one who created you! You are my clone!
The clone started to look at her hooves, her mane and her surroundings.”Holy sh—” And the clone fainted.
“Something is really wrong about this, her personality may have changed because of the problem during the spell, but not to this point, she even can't recognize me! Spike, I have to get the clone to hospital, and it’s better to teleport, I don’t want to catch the attention of everypony.
I woke up and started to examine my surroundings, I still had hooves, a lavender coat and mane, I had both wings and horn, I’m an alicorn , also, I was also a female It’s better to be a female in here, it is a feminist kingdom after all .Twilight was sitting in the other end of the room, and I was sure I’m in the Ponyville hospital.
What happened to me? I-i died and then it was that hallway, and… there was a portal, and then… then Twilight was standing in front of me, and she called me… SHE CALLED ME HER CLONE.
Then I realized that I’m really her clone, I exactly looked like her, even my cutie mark was exactly like her cutie mark. I started to shiver.
I–i died, only to become Twilight’s clone? SERIOUSLY?! A CLONE? Why? Why I always have to be so unlucky?! I could have even been Nightmare Moon, even that was acceptable; but this– this is crazy. Okay Michael, calm down, you are not dead, this isnt a dream, you are just another Dead-Human-In-Equestria, except that this one is real… This one… is *real** .*
“Holy buck…” I whispered. And it looks like that there is a strong censorship here…
Twilight noticed me swearing and approached me. “Oh, hi... clone, are you okay? You looked very scared at the palace, maybe the spell didnt worked correctly, you panicked and fainted, which made me teleport you to here, I don’t know why, but I felt that something is very wrong. So, clone, do you have any idea why the spell hasn't worked correctly?”
“C-can you stop calling me… clone?” You are just making things look worse than what it is.
“Well... you're a clone, so why I can't call you a clone?” She asked.
“because I’m not a clone,” I said.
“All of the clones say that, you are not a good actor, and next time you wanted to fool me, I may vanish you,” She said, with disbelief in her eyes. Now she was really serious, and being vanished wasn't a good thing for me. God, just make her understand.
“I’m not lying, princess, I think that something went wrong with your spell, because it made me come back from death, a death in another universe,” I said, trying to reason with her.
“YOU WHAT? Y-you came back from…death?” her last word was a whisper. I nodded, her eyes were extremely wide.“I’m sorry, and… you are from another—”I nodded again, even before she finished her sentence. it made her even more sad, and curious.“Okay, you need a name, and an illusion spell to hide your identity to go back to my castle. Then you can give me more information about this.”
“You can call me Stellar Sunburst,” I said, while shutting my mouth with my hoof, trying to stop myself from laughing at the name I picked for myself. It may look a little bad, but… it’s a name, and much better than many names in here.
“Okay Stellar, hold still for a second so that I can do the illusion spell on you…and done! lets go,”She said, I looked at myself, now I was a pink coated unicorn with a light pink mane.
“Pinkie’s smaller sister…” I whispered and giggled.
I tried to stand up as a pony for the first time in my life, sometimes I dreamed of Equestria and being a pony… it can’t be that hard. first, I sat on one side of the bed, and then, tried to get my front hooves on the ground, but I fell onto the ground, all of my body was sore. I’ll admit it, this is hard, very hard.
“Are you Okay?” The lavender alicorn asked.
“Yes princess,it's just, these are my first steps as a pony, but I’m a fast learner,” I said as I stood up on my four hooves. baby steps mich– Stellar, baby steps. and now, one, two, three, four, one, two, three, fo– HOLY— a nurse nearly crashed with me.
“Sorry!” The nurse said. Buck you
“No problem!” I said, trying to control my anger.
“Well, Stellar, it wasn't that bad,” She said, trying to encourage me. Yeah, I was better than the cake twins.
We started to slowly walk toward the exit, and in a blink of an eye, we reached it. The hospital was smaller than what I thought it is, and when we opened the door, I was blinded by the son, striking my eyes with a blinding shine. And then, I decided to tell Twilight that I knew them. But not by saying that they're all a TV show…
“Twilight?” I asked.
“Huh?” She said.
“There is something I have to tell you. You are not just national heroes, you are well known… in other universes, or at least, in our universe.” I said.
She was confused. “You know about us in your universe? How?” Uh-Oh
“Well, they made a movie based on your actions,” maybe they don't know about serials, but I’m sure they know what is a movie. I hoped for her to believe in me.
“And… How much?” She asked, curious.
“Well… You are Princess Celestia’s personal student, you had a magical surge because of a Sonic Rainboom performed by Rainbow Dash, your greatest nightmare is failing in the missions assigned to you, Pinkie Pie has a secret room about what each pony likes or dislikes so she can throw perfect parties, I know you had a crush on Flash Sentry, I even know the song that you sing when you see Princess Cadance: Sunshine sunshine ladybugs MMmmm—” She put her hoof on my mouth, with a wide open jaw.
“You–your universe knows this much from us?” She asked.
“Y-yes, not all of us, I’m a fan of you and your friends, this is why I know so much,” I said. Maybe I revealed informations more than enough…
“And who is responsible for this exposure of this… secret informations?” She asked. Oh, which one, the one about Flash Sentry?!
“I don’t know, maybe it is the god of chaos—” I tried to blame poor Discord for all of this.
“DISCORD,” She said, all of her body was turning red from anger. Maybe it wasn't a good idea.
“But no, I even know about the events before Discord, and also, he is reformed. It may be because of anypony else. But Princess, I will tell nopony about your secrets, even the one about Fla—”
“Maybe it’s better that you start to don’t talk about them from right now,” she said.
“And I think that we reached your castle, Princess, and it is as beautiful as always,” I said.
“As always?! Can I know the length of the movie about us?!” She was overwhelmed by curiosity.
“ Over one hundred hours, Princess,” I said.
“OVER ONE HUNDRED HOURS?! Are you sure it isn't a serial?”she shouted. She looked angry. Maybe because there was a lot of secrets exposed to another universe.
“Yes Princess, it is a serial, I thought you don't know what a serial is, so I decided to tell it’s a movie, and as I said, you are very popular, as I said. I know a lot from your universe, even things that you don't know, but they will all remain in my mind and will be never exposed to anypony, until you ask me to do it,” I said.
But it will be very funny if I say everypony about your secrets… maybe I tell Celestia about the parasprites, or tell Flash Sentry about your crush on him… I giggled from what I said. But lucky for you, you are my favorite character here, so I will be respect you and your secrets.
“Thank you, but still, if you say anyone about anything that they don’t know about you, I will turn you into a —”
“Cactus? Like what you did on your entrance exam?” She was shocked.
“Y-yes, and… lets stop talking about this.” she knocked the door, and Spike opened the door almost immediately.
“Hey Twilight!” Spike said, and then stared at us, shifting from one to another.
“Which one of you is the clone?” I noticed that the magic has worn off, and my body, Twilight’s body , is back to normal.
“She is the real Twilight—” I pointed my hoof toward Twilight. “ but I prefer not to be called ‘the clone’, Spike.”
“Well you are a clone, so I can call you a clone, and, I ask you to organize the library for me.” Twilight started to blush.
“Spike, she isn’t a clone, she has a body like mine, but her personality… is from a different pony… a dead alien, can you be a little nicer to her?” Twilight whispered to Spike, and he was shocked too.
“Sorry miss…”
“I’m Stellar, Spike. And no need to apologise, you didn’t knew I’m not a clone. But maybe one day I can organize the books, if Twilight teach me a little magic.” I said. I’m sure he will make Twilight teach me magic.
“That’ll be awesome!” he turned back, facing Twilight that was entering the castle. “Twilight, pleaseeeeeeee,” he whispered, while using his hand to cover his mouth, but I was still able to hear him.”
“Okay Spike, after telling Princess Celestia about this situation, I will ask her for permission to teach you magic, but until then, I can’t teach you anything.”
“You can at least teach me levitation magic…” I said.
“No, Stellar, magic is like… a game. If you learn the basics, you can learn all other things by yourself. Most higher level magics only need more concentration, this is the only difference, I don't trust you that much, I’m sorry,” She said, I was staring at her with disbelief.
For Celestia’s sake, you can't be such a flank hole! I'M NOT A CRAZY EVIL MANIAC! Okay! I will learn it all by MYSELF! But first, I need to calm down, being rude isn’t good in this world, not good, just use that mask of kindness.
“I… I try to understand you, and I’ll try to be a good fiend for you,” I whispered, while my head was pointed downward, still trying to calm myself down.
“Thank you, and come inside. Spike, can you make a tea for us?” She said. Spike ran inside, probably toward the kitchen, obeying his owner.
We walked in the main hallway, until we reached the chamber of friendship –this is the name I gave to the big chamber with the map of Equestria –. Twilight pointed to one of the chairs, with no cutie mark on it, it was probably for Spike, which made me a little angry. but I decided to sit on it and don’t protest. Then something strange happened, the map glowed, and the same happened with our cutie marks, and then, the map sent me a painful jolt of electricity. I started to scream in pain, Twilight was confused, and scared, too. And then, when there was a bright glowing aura on me.
After a minute, the map stopped to glow, and then, our cutie marks. My vision was blurry, and I had a headache. And also, speaking of cutie marks, I was sure that mine was definitely changed, it was now a six pointed star, with six smaller stars surrounding it. Good, now that I have a different cutie mark, I’m not exactly like Twilight. But what’s the meaning of it?Maybe I have to join the CMC to find out the meaning of it.
“Are you okay? Wait a second! your cutie mark has changed! I never saw something like this before! this is… extraordinary! I have to report to Princess Celestia, Spike?!” her number one assistant bringed a quill and a paper, and started to write everything she says. “ Dear Princess Celestia, something unusual is happening in here, it is hard to explain it in a letter, you must to come and see it by yourself! the princess of friendship, Twilight Sparkle, okay Spike, send it!”
“Hold on a second… and… done!”
After a minute, the reply arrived.
“She says she will come here tomorrow evening at 5 P.M! Spike, we need to make a checklist to make sure everything will be okay when the princess —”she yawned “—arrives”
“Princess, I think it’s better to sleep for now, we are all tired—”
“No! I can’t sleep while something this much important is happening! Having Princess in here isn’t a normal occasion…”
“But what happens if you are sleepy when the princess arrives?” I asked, trying to reason with her.
“Okay Stellar, you are right. I will do everything tomorrow morning, for now, I will show you your bedroom and all of us will sleep.”
She guided me to my bedroom, it looked nice and cozy, and I leapt on my bed, sleeping on it.
“Goodnight, Twilight,” I said.
“Goodnight, Stellar,” she said before going out from my room.
And now, lets try to do some magic! Twilight mentioned concentration, maybe I just have to focus on something! I tried to focus on lifting a desk on the other end of my bedroom. and at last, being a neurosurgeon is paying off, concentration is a piece of cake for me. the desk started to move upward, and then, I putted it down. As I said before, a piece of cake. I will practice more spells tomorrow.
And in a blink of an eye, I was in the realm of dreams…
