Unlike in so many stories however, she can't keep it a secret. Plus there's now way for her to get back home, so the only thing she can do is move on and ignore that stupid crush she's slowly developing for one of the characters.

Chapter 1

Author's Note

My writers block wouldn't allow me to get this one out of my head.

Chapter 1

What a day. Sunset thought to herself, as she examined the surrounding area. Compared to what she had done, the portals Twilight created didn't do much damage. The only thing that really got destroyed was the statue in front of Canterlot High.

That's gonna cost a pretty penny.

"Hey! I need some help over here!" Sunset recognized Flash Sentry's voice and ran over to him. Her friends, her school principals, the dean of crystal prep and a few others did the same. They found the boy next to one of the rostrums, kneeling down beside an unconscious girl. The girl had black hair, a little longer than Sunset's and quite messy at the moment, looked a little skinny, had some white with a little red (it looked weird) skin color? Like a pony, when their fur is completely shaved off.

The girl wore a brown trench coat, buttons closed, over a black pullover with hood, which was odd, considering it was spring. Else she wore regular jeans and black boots and had a bag with her. And she was bleeding from a head injury!!

"She must have hit her head." Sunset initially said. "We better get her to the school nurse."

"Yeah, you're right." Flash nodded and picked her up.

Wow, she's just as light as she looks. Flash thought to himself, as he hurried to the main building. The others followed him as quickly as possible, except for Fluttershy, who took it upon herself to carry the bag with her.

"Oh my, this is heavy." the timid girl breathed out.

Nurse Redheart worked at the hospital in Canterlot City, before she needed to change jobs, because of the birth of her daughter. Having experience with various forms of head injuries, she knew that most of them looked worse than they actually are. But the fact that this girl lost consciousness was worrisome to say the least.

"We should better call for an ambulance, just to be on the safe side." the school nurse explained, already holding the phone in her hand. "Do we know who she is?"

Celestia shook her head. "She doesn't belong to neither Crystal Prep or our school."

"Hmm" the nurse checked the pockets of the girl, which she had a lot, because of the trench coat she was wearing, but didn't find anything.

"In any event, I will call an ambulance. I did what I could", which was cleaning up the blood and bandaging the girl's head "but I don't want her to end up having brain damage."

"Alright." Celestia nodded. "I'll go outside and tell the students. Maybe one of them know the her from somewhere?"

The school principal stepped outside, while the nurse already started talking with the night shift of the emergency number. Celestia found the Rainbooms, her niece, her sister, Flash Sentry and Twilight Sparkle standing in the hallway.

"And?" Sunset asked.

"Nurse Redheart did what she could, but she's calling an ambulance, just to be on the safe side. Do any of you happen to know who she is?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Um..."Fluttershy carefully raised her hand.

"Yes, what is it?" Celestia asked.

Fluttershy pointed at the bag she had been carrying. "This was hers, was it not? Maybe she has a purse or something else in there."

"Now wait a minute, sugercube. That would be invading her privacy."

"Considering the circumstances, I think we can make an exception." Dean Cadance said.

"Neeto!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, grabbing the bag and looking at it like an early Christmas gift. Applejack quickly took the back over, giving her party maniacal friend a stern look.

"Now let's trah ta be discreet 'bout this." the farm girl said, slowly opening the bag, only a small bit. Carefully putting her hand in, she grabbed the next best thing inside and pulled it out: a scribbling block.

"Well, that was a dud." Rainbow commented.

"Let's look inside!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, taking it away from her friend.

"Pinkie!" But the girl wasn't listening and already looking through a few pages.

"Story ideas:" she read. "Time travel; slightly overdone. Alternate mother? Completely overdone. Huh? Sunlight clop-"

Vice-Principal Luna snatched the thing away, before Pinkie Pie could read any further. The blue woman gave her student her infamous death glare, causing the pink girl to quickly hide behind Sunset Shimmer. Unfazed by all of this, Applejack moved on. Since the bag was so stuffed, she couldn't actively look for a purse or something like this. So the next thing that came out was a portable playing console.

"Huh, maybe she's traveling somewhere and had this for a train ride or something?" Sunset speculated.

"It would explain why she's carrying this rather big backpack with her." Rarity thought, tapping her chin.

Placing the thing away, Applejack wanted to take next best thing out, but Rainbow took the bag away.

"You're far too slow." the rainbow haired girl said and already picked up the next thing: a crumpled newspaper article. By further inspection, Rainbow noticed that it was the job offer section. One of the jobs was circled with a red marker.

"Looking for a job. A cashier job? Really?" Rainbow questioned. "Those are the lamest."

"Well she appears to be around high school age." Principal Celestia pointed out.

Tossing the paper aside, Rainbow grabbed the next thing: an apple. She tossed it over to Applejack without a comment and proceeded.

"Really Rainbow?"

Ignoring the farmer, the sport's captain took out...a t-shirt? Pinkie sniffed on it and reported. "Smells like she just bought it." the party girl muttered loud enough for everyone to hear.

"I think we should put-" Luna didn't get any further as Pinkie Pie opened the t-shirt, revealing a lavender unicorn/pony head on it, clapping the fronthooves together, with a lavender writing under the picture, saying: "I did science!"

"That's kind of cute." Rarity commented. The fashionista couldn't help but smile at the simple adorable looking unicorn. "What do you think as a former unicorn, Sunset?"

Everyone turned towards her, only to find her frozen in place.

"Wait, YOU'RE A UNICORN?!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Hey, look Twilight! This pony here has the same hairstyle like you!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, holding the t-shirt up high.

The others turned around again and indeed. It was the same color, the same pink streak, it was just flat. To proof her point further, Pinkie Pie undid the bun on Twilight's head.

"That's some freaky coincidence." Cadance stated.

"That's...." Sunset began, but stopped.

"What is it, Sunset?" Celestia asked, growing worried.

"That's exactly how the Twilight from MY world looks like."

"WAIT WHAT?!"

"There's another Twilight out there?!" Twilight Sparkle exclaimed. "A unicorn?!"

"Twilight really looks this cute?!"

Awkward silence fell upon everyone, as they turned around and stared at Fluttershy. Realizing her own, very loud words, Fluttershy let out an "eep!" and quickly hid herself inside a locker.

All restrains forgotten, Rainbow Dash took out another shirt, with a strange face of princess Celestia on the back. The text this time said: "Trollestia was here."

That got a good laugh out of Vice-Principal Luna, who literally fell to the ground, having trouble breathing.

"O-okay!" Celestia stuttered, grabbing the t-shirt and hiding it behind her back. "I think this is enough!" she exclaimed, her face tomato red. The rest barely suppressed the laughter that wanted so desperately to get out of the mouths of the others. Rainbow lost the battle with her inner strength and dropped to the ground. The bag-pack landed next to her, another item falling out of it.

This one was a DVD box. A very colorful DVD box. A very colorful DVD box with pastel colored ponies on it.

A very colorful DVD- arrgh screw it! The title on the box said: "My Little Pony; Friendship is Magic! Season 1.

Chapter 3

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 2

The girls watched with mixed feelings as the ambulance left the school grounds, the unknown girl still unconscious. After they couldn't see the vehicle anymore, they turned towards each other.

"So...what now?" Sunset asked.

"I say we ask her out, once she wakes up." Rainbow stated, crossing her arms.

"Rainbow Dash! She's injured and unconscious!" Rarity exclaimed, putting her hands on her hips. "I agree, I am more than just a little curious myself, but we should wait until the girl at least recovered!"

"Yeah, fine." Rainbow huffed, crossing her arms.

"In the meantime" Pinkie Pie held out four DVD boxes into the air "we should totally watch these!"

"Ya stole her stuff?" Applejack asked with a frown. Originally Principal Celestia put everything back into the girls bag and took it with her. The woman drove along with the girl, who was now known as Claire Perez.

"Of course not, silly. I just borrowed them! I'm sure she won't mind."

Sunset sighed. "As much as I disagree with stealing, I, strangely enough, have to agree with Pinkie Pie on this one."

"Y-you think, so?" Fluttershy asked. "I-I mean, what if we see something embarrassing about...us...er...them?"

"About that" Twilight spoke up "I wanted to ask you about this. You said something about...another me?"

The girls looked at each other worried and then back at Twilight.

"It's a little complicated." Rainbow Dash scratched the back of her head.

"I think we should wait until tomorrow." Sunset said. "We're all rather tired after today and I don't know about you girls, but I can't handle any more surprises today. Let's say we call it a night and meet up tomorrow here and then go to my place to watch these."

"Oh, come on!" Spike shouted from the ground. "It's the first time I'll be actually able to understand what they say on TV and I have to wait?! Come on! You can't be that tired. I *yawn* am definitely not....ti...red..." the dogs head hit the floor and immediately started to snore.

Smiling to herself, Twilight picked up her sleeping companion. "I...I guess I see you all tomorrow then. My friends."

The other girls smiled and all said their goodbyes to their newest addition in their clique.

"You know, I wonder why she isn't like our Twilight." Rarity asked.

"Who knows?" Sunset shrugged. "I can think of a couple of reasons." She yawned. "Anyways, I think I'll hit the hay for today. See you tomorrow."

Perhaps it would have been a good idea to set a time as to when the girls would meet up. It ended up with Pinkie Pie showing up at 5 in the freaking morning, luckily she brought a bag full of snacks, and Rainbow Dash at 10, because she's lazy. The other girls appeared somewhat in between, though it wasn't until 8 until Twilight showed up.

"Finally!" AJ exclaimed. "Took ya long enough."

"Hey, we didn't decide to when we would meet up." Rainbow Dash countered.

"Whatever girls." Sunset put herself between them. "It's way too early for that. Let's just get to my place and watch what I expect to change my view on life for the worse."

"Why would you say that, Sunset?" Pinkie Pie appeared in front of the other girls face. "I mean, this is super exciting! Here, I read the backside on the DVD yesterday. Did you know that Rainbow Dash and Applejack have the same voice actress?" The pink girl tabbed on the DVD box. "The same goes for me and Flutterhsy!"

"Wait, what?!" Twilight snatched the box away from Pinkie Pie and read the specific section. "B-but...does that mean you two" she pointed at Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie "have the same vocal cords? Your voices sound completely different!"

"I knew Fluttershy and I always had a special connection." The party lover pressed the animal lover's against her own. In response, the butter colored girl just smiled, not really knowing what to make of this.

"Wait. So ah actually sound like her? Or can?" Applejack asked, looking at Rainbow Dash.

"This actually gives me an awesome idea for a prank." The blue girl tapped her chin. "If we can somehow figure out to sound like the other...oh this will be good." Rainbow Dash chuckled evilly.

Rarity took a look at the box and found out, her voice actress was someone by the name of Tabitha St. Germain. She quickly typed the game into her phone, so she could google it later.

"Ah'm awesome.
...
Guess I'll have ta work on that." AJ shrugged.

"Howdy there! Yeah, this isn't as easy as I thought." Rainbow scratched her head.

"Hay, if you somehow manage to pull this off, I'll give each of you fifty bucks."

"Fifty bucks!?!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "Come on, AJ! We got work to do!"

"Never thought, ah'd hear ya say that line, like...ever." the farm girl grinned.

Meanwhile in the hospital of Canterlot City, Claire was slowly getting back to her senses. The first thing she noticed was the mind blowing headache. The girl groaned, slowly raising her stiff arm in order to rub her forehead. Since her mind was a foggy mess, she had a hard time recalling of what happened. There were a few things, such as stumbling, falling and hitting her head, along with some weird lights, but the latter might as well be an aftereffect of the injury she received.

The bed she was lying in, was very comfortable to say the least. As a result, Claire was very tempted to just fall back asleep, especially if it meant escaping the pain her poor brain was going through. Unfortunately, it was at this time that a nurse decided to come into the room. Said nurse didn't make any efforts what so ever in being quiet, so Claire thought she thought that she might as well open her eyes.

If the smell of disinfectants hadn't been an indicator enough, Claire had now confirmation that she was indeed in a hospital, based on the outfit the woman was wearing. Said woman had unusual pale skin. The lighting in the room made it look like her skin was a light blue color. On top of that, she had pink hair.

Claire would have raised an eyebrow, if she hadn't been busy on the sudden increase of pain. The groan she let out in the process, got the nurse's attention, who had been busy updating the sheet attached to Claire's bed.

"Ah, you're awake." the woman said, walking around the bed.

Claire followed her movement a little before closing her eyes and slowly massaging her forehead again.

"Are you alright, dear?"

"Head hurts a lot." was Claire's only reply.

"I'm sorry to hear that. I can offer you some painkillers, if you want."

Claire thought about it for a moment. The past experience she had with the painkillers was that they generally didn't work at all. But considering this was a hospital, they ought to have the better stuff.

"I would like to, yes."

"Okay dear, just give me a minute. Oh, but I should ask, do you have any allergies against certain medications?"

"So far I'm still alive. No, none that I know of."

The nurse nodded and walked out of the room, leaving Claire in her misery.

A few minutes later, the nurse came back with a brown plastic bottle and a glass filled with water. She gave the one of the pills and the water. She also helped Claire to swallow those things, as the girl felt light headed (more than previously), when she moved her head.

After swallowing the pill, Claire simply let her head fall back onto the pillow.

"Do you think you can talk to the doctor?" the nurse asked her. "Or do you want to sleep for a little longer?"

"N-no. I'll talk to the doctor." Claire said a little meekly.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. I have this...weird habit. I can't fall asleep after being woken up."

The nurse nodded. "Alright. Just wait a little more."

Like I have anything better to do, woman. Oh crap, I should have asked how long I was out and if mom and dad were already here. Hmm, seeing as they're not here, I guess I'm not longer here than 20 minutes, 3 hours at most. Or they just didn't rummage through my stuff, in order to find my ID.

The following minutes, Claire just stared at the ceiling, her thoughts randomly drifting off somewhere, only for her to drop them, as the headache prevented her from focusing on more than a minute or two at best.

It took the doctor 15 minutes to finally show up in her room and when Claire first laid her eyes on the guy, she thought: Holy shit, that guys is green!

"Last chance to bail out." Sunset announced. She was just about to insert the first DVD into the player. The others were seated comfortably on the couch with popcorn, nachos, coke and all the stuff you would want on a movie night.

"Come on, just get it in already. We don't have all day!" Rainbow Dash shouted.

Sighing Sunset put the DVD in and closed the lit. She grabbed the remotes for the TV and the player, as she walked back. Sitting down, she just skipped the commercials, which none of the girls have ever heard off, until they came to main screen. Quickly pressing the play button, because that music was annoying at best, and it began.

"Oh, I'm so excited!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, stuffing a handful of popcorn into her mouth.

"Shh!" Rarity shushed her excited friend, as the screen showed a book cover of some sort.

"Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria..."

Sunset immediately froze up, upon hearing that particular voice. There was no way she would ever mistake it.

"Sounds like the principal." AJ commented silently. Some of the girls nodded subconsciously, their eyes glued to the screen.

As the monologue went on, Sunset realized that it was the mare in the moon story they were listening to. She had no time to wonder as to why, since the voice telling the story changed into that of Twilight Sparkle. Everyone turned their heads towards the "new girl", only to find her staring mouth agape at the screen. Suddenly the camera drifted away from the picture book, showing it lying on a grassy ground. And then the camera changed.

"Elements of Harmony. I know I've heard of those before. But where?" Said an adorable looking unicorn Twilight Sparkle.

Fluttershy let out an "aww", upon seeing the screen.

"Wow." Spike commented. "Twilight's really small over there."

Then the theme started. Although interested by seeing the others in their pony forms, one thing went through all of their minds: That song is TERRIBLE!/UNAWESOME!

The next few scenes proceeded. It was interesting to see the unicorn Twilight acting so socially awkward towards what the girls assumed to be the unicorn's acquaintances.

"That's the park, belonging to the school for gifted unicorns." Sunset said more to herself than her friends.

"*SLAM* Spike? Spiiike!"

"Ow, that gotta hurt!" Rainbow Dash faked a wince while smiling.

"That's how dragons look like in Equestria?" AJ asked.

"Spike is a dragon over there?!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Oh Spike. You know we don't have time for that sort of thing."

"She really is like you." Spike pressed his owner's nose.

"That's strange. Princess Twilight was way more adamant towards the prospect of friendship than this thing." Rarity mentioned.

"Strange. Twilight isn't a princess in this one." Shimmer pointed out. "Maybe this was before her coronation."

"THAT ISN'T WHAT'S IMPORTANT! SHE SAID NO TO A PARTY!! TWILIGHT HOW COULD YOU!?!"

Seeing as it would take a while for Pinkie to come out of her, *ahem*, despair, Sunset paused the DVD.

"Your skin is green. Naturally." Claire stated.

The doctor nodded his confirmation. The entire situation up until now was very interesting for Doctor Soft Needle. Although reluctant to speak at first, the doctor manage to start a conversation with the girl lying in the bed, who insisted the only skin colors humans were supposed to have were brown and white.

"That....I......I must have hit my head really hard and now I am dreaming."

"Er, I can assure you Miss Perez that this is definitely not a dream." the doctor answered.

"You know, it's gonna take more than this to convince me doctor." Claire deadpanned, though she winced back, when the doctors expression became serious.

"Well, for starters, the two of us have been having a very detailed conversation for the past minutes. Oftentimes in dreams things are out of shape, details are either missing or completely misplaced. Do you see anything out of place? Or perhaps we should try a technique in order to "wake you up"?"

Claire thought for a moment. "You can feel pain in dreams. The opposite is just a rumor." Then her eyes widened. "Ah, I get it. I have hit my head pretty hard and now I am hallucinating. Maybe this is a coma dream."

Doctor Soft Needle sighed. They were going in circles now and he himself had no experience as to how to handle a patient, who believed she was dreaming. A knock at the door got both of their attention. The nurse from earlier opened it and stuck her head inside. "Excuse me, Doctor? Miss Faust is here and wishes to know if it's alright for her to visit Miss Perez."

Miss Faust? That's it. No more ponies for me for a month. Okay, maybe a week.

"Please excuse me."

The doctor went into the hallways of the hospital, while the nurse closed the door. Now alone in the room, Claire raised her arm and opened her hand. Then she closed it, repeating the pattern a couple of times. Next she slowly rubbed the mattress she was lying on with her hand.

It feels so real. Way more realistic than any dream I ever had. And then the smell. I can make out every scratch, every dark spot on the ceiling. That wall over there looks like it could need some fresh paint. And, was it just me or were the doctor's eyes a little big? No, no way. There has to be a rational explanation for this.

Her train of thought was interrupted by the door opening once again. A third person entered the room. This time, Claire recognized the person, which wasn't a good sign at all. The one who was approaching her bed, was none other than principal Celestia.

"Oh, here I come, here I come!" Pinkie shrieked excited.

"Oh my. She looks so cute." Fluttershy smiled.

"Come on, Twilight. Just try." The TV-Dragon Spike tried to bring his Twilight to make a friend.

"Uh...hello?"

No one saw the reaction of TV-Pinkie Pie coming. She gasped, jumped into mid-air, stayed there for a second or so and then zoomed out of the picture, over TV-Twilight's head.

"What was that?" Sunset, Rainbow and Rarity asked at the same time. This was weird, even for Pinkie Pie standards.

The DVD went on and soon they came to Sweet Apple Acres.

"Ah hate ta admit it, but that Sweet Apple Acres over there looks way better than mah home." AJ admitted.

"Oh, jealous darling?" Rarity teased.

"Maybe a little bit."

"Oh mare, poor Twilight." Sunset grinned, upon seeing her friends legs continuing to wave up and down.

"Do you always greet people like this?" Spike asked Applejack, pointing with his paw at the screen.

"Er, sometimes?" the girl replied, blushing. "Oh granny as pony. Didn't saw that coming."

"She's a little skinny." Pinkie Pie pointed out.

"Is your family really this big, Applejack?" Twilight asked.

"Sure as sugar, sugar. Ain't anybody missin'."

"Aw, look at cutesy-wootsy Applebloom."

"Say what now?" Applejack looked over to Fluttershy and then the screen. She immediately regretted it, upon seeing the pony version of her little sister giving pony Twilight the puppy dog eyes. The farmer gripped her chest, as her heart nearly gave out.

"Fun fact of the week, there are at least three instances noted where ponies who never had a foal and lived pretty subdued, suffered from heart attacks upon the first time of seeing the puppy dog eyes of a filly." Sunset explained. "Er, Fluttershy? Twilight? Are you alright?"
