Where Am I?

      "Pinkie?" Asked a raspy voice, "Are you there?"

The only answer Rainbow Dash got was an echo that repeated her question

      "Are you there? Are you there? Are you there?" She sighed. The last that she could remember was joking around with Pinkie Pie and here comes a flashback…

"So, Pinkie? Are you ready for the ultimate prank day?" Rainbow asked while pushing down her sunglasses so they were in front of her eyes.

"Sorry Dashie! I've got a huge amount of orders to work on and the Cakes are taking the foals on a vacation, so I'm in charge of running the shop and working on the orders." Pinkie replied.

"Oh… sorry for bothering you…" Dash murmured, trying to hide her disappointment.

"Dash, you know you can still help me, right?" Pinkie said.

"I'm not sure if I'm any useful… I was never really a good baker and-" Dash said before being interrupted.

"Of course you're useful!" Pinkie exclaimed, "I mean it's not like you can burn water!"

(20 minutes later)

Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie stared at the entire mess they had made when they were joking around, including the pot full of burnt water. Pinkie Pie checked the oven to see if they left something in there and found a baked cake inside a bowl and took it out while Dash hesitated to start cleaning. Rainbow turned around while Pinkie looked for towels so they can clean all of the frosting and cake batter up, but the cake (or the bowl) was starting to somehow open up a portal.

"Uh, Pinkie… is it me or is that cake opening up a portal?" Rainbow asked. Pinkie Pie turned around and noticed that the portal was sucking things and even HER.

"Pinkie! MOVE! The portals gonna suck you in!" Dash pushed Pinkie out of the way but before she could move, the portal sucked her in and flashback's over.

Rainbow Dash started looking for an escape and Pinkie, but after 6 hours of endless pitch black void, no result in escape, and no sign of Pinkie, she finally let it out. Since no-pony would be hearing her, she just cried.

      "I want to go home! I want to be with my friends again! I don't want to be here any longer!" Rainbow sobbed. Then, all of a sudden, another portal opened up. Rainbow wiped the tears off of her face as the portal sucked her in again.

The next thing she knew she was in what looked like Ponyville again. The residents seemed very different to her, though. She thought she saw Fluttershy and Twilight, but they looked different. Fluttershy had an arrow slung over her left wing, her mane had black stripes in it and it was up in a ponytail, had black eyeliner on, and was wearing dark green eyeshadow. Twilight had a white lab coat on, wore black thick rimmed glasses, wore her hair in a bun and had pencil next her ear. Rainbow wasn't sure if she should go talk to them but they walked up to her anyways.

          "Did your horn do something again?" Fluttershy huffed.

          "No! She looks completely different! See!" Twilight shot back, pointing at Dash who was just plain confused.

          "True, but-" Fluttershy said before being  cut off.

         "What you are even talking about?" Rainbow asked. Fluttershy glared at her and said, "Twilight was right." Dash looked even more confused than before, "Why?", she asked.

         "'Cause everypony knows not ta interrupt me or else I punch 'em in the face."

Dash was blamelessly confused when she heard Fluttershy say that. Then there was a long silence.

         "Let's get you to our place before some pony -else- sees you!" Twilight exclaimed finally, breaking the silence. Rainbow was about to resist but Twilight levitated her quickly to building and shoved her inside.

         "What was all that about?!" Rainbow asked.

Twilight sighed, knowing she'd have to spill.

         "Rainbow, you're not supposed to be here. You are most likely in an alternative universe."

         "Yeah, you got that right, Twi." Rainbow groaned.

         "And it's all thanks to the world's worst unicorn cause she failed at another spell." Fluttershy taunted. Twilight nudged her in the side.

         "Ouch!" Fluttershy yelped.

Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes at them and looked around the place she was in. It looked more like a science lab than a house.

        "Is this your living room?" Rainbow asked.

        "Yeah, but my bedroom is a real science lab. They don't call me Sci-Twi for nothing." Twilight said.

Rainbow blinked a few times.

        "No pony calls you that, Twi." Fluttershy rolled her eyes at Twilight.

        "So…" Rainbow tried to conjure up the first thought that came to her head, "what are ponies like here?"

        "Well, other than a serial killer making the town's population go down, things aren't bad." Twilight said. Upon hearing that, Dash started to panic.

        "WHAT!?" She exclaimed, "There's a serial killer on the loose here?! I gotta get outta here before I die!"

        "You don't think were talking about cereal, do you?" Fluttershy asked while raising an eyebrow.

        "Of course, Fluttershy, because I'm stupid." Rainbow Dash said

        "Like I'm supposed to know! We just met!" Fluttershy exclaimed.

Twilight rolled her eyes at them. She didn't think Dash was taking her seriously with Fluttershy's stupidity and sarcasm! Then again, nopony took her seriously.

        "You might be in serious trouble!" Twilight exclaimed.

        "I'll be fine Twi, no worries." Rainbow Dash replied. Fluttershy and Twilight looked at each other.

        "Did you get sucked into a portal?" Twilight asked.

        "Yeah. How the hay did you know that?!"

        "Uh oh." Twilight gulped.

        "Something wrong?" Dash asked.

        "The spell worked." Twilight said. Upon hearing that, Fluttershy popped up, her eyes big but her pupils were the size of pindrops.
