16 years in the future. Or in other words, the present.
The Foal Free Press news flash! Famed inventor Prof. A. Corns has completed his time machine! Let's take a little closer look.
In the gardens of Canterlot, we see a turquoise blue unicorn, with a lab coat, and a toolbox with a wrench Cutie mark, that's Prof. A. Corns, the famous inventor from Canterlot. He's responsible(not in a bad way) for inventing many brilliant inventions. And his latest invention, is currently the greatest. The time machine. Many journalists from around Equestria either wanna flash picture him, or interview him, fortunately the royal guards held them off. But now, we see some special guests arrive on the scene. Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna. Along with the Mane 6 too. They wanted to get a little closer look at the time machine. Let's take a little closer look, like they wanted.
Right beside the time machine, stands Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, the 6 heroes of Equestria, Twilight sparkle, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie pie, Rainbow dash, and Fluttershy. And speaking of Rainbow dash, she is staring at the time machine suspiciously. She then turns over to Prof. A. Corns.
"Look no offense Professor, but this looks more like cross, between a tea cup and a watch." Rainbow said, Twilight glared at Rainbow.
"Rainbow dash, you don't have to sound like that, especially when you say it right in front of the inventor himself." Twilight told Rainbow. She then turned over to the professor. "Oh, i apologize for my friend's impolite compliment Prof. A. Corns." She said to the professor.
"Oh it's alright my friend, i admit as well that it looks like a cross between a tea cup and a watch." Chuckled Prof. A. Corns.
"But i must say, your time machine is a very brilliant invention, think about all the things from the past we can discover. Ancient lost artifacts. Books not existing in our time period. Or maybe..." Twilight said, before her sentence were interrupted by Rainbow. "Come on Twilight, let your egghead talk go for now. I want to hear the good parts." Rainbow said. Twilight then shrugged Rainbow off, and turned back to the professor.
"But i must ask you, what can actually make this time machine run? It appears to need a huge power source for something like time travel." Twilight said to the professor.
"I know my dear ms. sparkle and i have a power source right here." Prof. A. Corns said, taking something hidden in his lab coat, he reveals something that looks like a cross between 6 triangular gems, and a star. "This my dear, is the machine's energy source. The amazing Cobalt Star!" The professor said. Everyone especially Rarity, looks at it.
"Why it's so beautiful, i can think of numerous dresses i can make out of this beautiful Cobalt Star." Rarity said.
"Yeah sure. But this Cobalt Star is best known for it's power over time. It has the power to open time holes." The professor said.
"Ok, what the hay is a time hole?" Applejack asked the professor.
"A time hole, is a portal to timelines, but i still don't know the full extent of it, since they have never been seen in Equestria before." The professor said.
"Well i must say, that maybe i can go back in time, to show my dresses to my old ancestors, to show them how brilliant they're descendants are." Rarity said.
"You and your dresses Rarity." Applejack said, while patting Rarity on her back. Then Pinkie pie appears right in front of Prof. A. Corns face.
"This invention sounds fun. Oh oh, can i go back in time to see my old ancestor, Surprise. Oh please please Prof. Agy. Corny. With sugar and flour on top." Said Pinkie pie, with her usual long speech. But then Fluttershy appeared, she pulled Pinkie pie back.
"Pinkie calm down, he still haven't explained everything about the time machine." Fluttershy said, while still holding Pinkie pie back. Then the mover of the sun, and the mover of the moon, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, walked up to Prof. A. Corns.
"Why hello Princess Celestia, and you too Princess Luna. As you can see, i have made a way to make anypony travel between timelines, without the need of a time spell." Prof. A. Corns. said while bowing.
"You have indeed Professor. But you do know that we need to be careful with your new invention. We don't want anypony misusing it's power." Princess Celestia said. She knew that if somepony misused it's power, it could lead to a lot of disaster in Equestria.
"Thou are right dear sister." Princess Luna said, before turning to Prof. A. Corns. "You thou know that misusing the timeline is a huge crime in Equestria." Princess Luna said to the professor. The professor nods in agreement.
"I understand dearly. But wouldn't it be a waste, if we didn't test the time machine?" Prof. A. Corns said. The two royal sisters look at each other. They both then turn to Prof. A. Corns.
"I guess it wouldn't hurt if we give it a little try." Princess Celestia said, turning over to Princess Luna, and the Mane 6. "My little ponies, and Princess Luna. I'm going to take a short trip to the old ages of Equestria. Would anypony like to join me, on my quest?" Princess Celestia said. They looked at each other. Then Princess Luna turned to her sister.
"I think it would be wise if i stayed behind, we still need a princess to take care of the day and night." Princess Luna said. Princess Celestia nods in agreement.
"Nah, you go ahead princess. I like the present better. Because the wonderbolts exists." Rainbow dash said.
"I would love to see my ancestor Surprise, but i need to take care of Sugarcube corner. Besides, Gummy will miss me." Pinkie pie said.
"I'd reckon that you go without me, i need to check the apples back at Sweet apple acres." Applejack said to the princess.
"Uhhmm... I don't think i have it in me, to travel back to the past." Fluttershy said, clearly not wanna go near that time machine.
"You go ahead darling, i'm also a little busy today." Rarity said.
"It would be an honor to travel in time with you Princess Celestia, but i think Spike and Owlicious would be a little lonely without me." Twilight said. Celestia nods at Twilight. "I understand my student." She said. But then, two ponies arrived. The first one is beige coated earth pony, the other is a mint coated unicorn. It's Bon-bon and Lyra.
"Phew, we made it in time Lyra." Bon-bon said to her friend Lyra. They both then turned to the princess. "Please Princess. Can we join you're little trip to the past. We promise we will behave." Lyra pleaded to the princess. Celestia smiled warmly to them. "Ok, you two may come with me." Celestia said. The two ponies hugged each other, like bff's.
"That's good, for the machine can max hold 3 passengers." Prof. A. Corns said. But before they could go to the time machine. An old unicorn, ran up to them, it was Monsieur Mane(the present one), and he looks at the princess firmly.
"Princess Celestia, i doubt it's a good idea for you to travel in that time machine, we don't have the slightest clue what can happen to you." Monsieur Mane said worried to the princess. "I will be alright Mane. It's just a little look in the past, and then i will come back in a day." The princess said. The Monsieur sighed. "Alright, just don't make me worried sick." Mane said. Celestia, Lyra, and Bon-bon walked inside the machine.
"Okay sending them 16 years back in time." The professor said, while pushing a few buttons. The mane 6 waved at the time machine, as it's slowly beginning to float in the air. And then in a flash, it disappeared. The time travel was complete. Then everypony began to go home, for tomorrow, they will see their precious princess of the sun again.
Or will they?
Next day, the mane 6, the professor, Princess Luna, and Monsieur Mane waited at the throne room, for Celestia, Lyra and Bon-bon to return. Mane looks incredibly worried. "PRIIIIIINCESS!" He shouted. "Please return, Your Majesty!" He shouted again. "I say... I am simply beside myself with worry!" He said to himself. The professor then chuckled.
"No need to worry yourself, My machine's safe as can be. Why, there's a 99.999999999% chance the princess will return!" The professor said, to calm the monsieur down. It failed. "THE HORROR!" he shouted again, before falling down, unconscious. Fluttershy and Applejack are shocked, and ran to the monsieur, seeing if he's alright. "Mane! Wake up! Maaaaaaaane!" Fluttershy said while putting her hoof on his head. "Whoa, he worried so hard, he KO'D himself!" Pinkie pie said. Princess Luna then looks at Twilight.
"Twilight, i'm pretty sure Monsieur Mane has a Refresh-cupcake in his room. Think thou could go get it?" Princess Luna said to Twilight.
"You can count on me Princess Luna." Twilight said, nodding to Princess Luna. She then runs out of the throne room.
"Excelent. Now let's bring Monsieur Mane a wheel chair." Princess Luna commanded the others.
"Wheel chair, coming right up Princess." Rainbow dash said, flying over to get a wheel chair.
Twilight ran to the monsieur's room, she searched all over his room, until she found a block floating in his room. She jumped and hit the block. The block then throws out a green cupcake.
"You got a Refresh-cupcake!" The screen said.
"Why does Monsieur Mane have a floating block around? " Twilight thought to herself. She just ignored it, and ran back to the throne room.
The others including a doctor are looking at the slightly unconscious Monsieur Mane, who is sitting on a wheel chair. "Monsieur! Any final words? Can i have your cane?" Pinkie asked the Monsieur.
"PINKIE" The others shouted at Pinkie.
"Princess" Is all the monsieur muttered.
"Doctor! SPEAK, already! Will he recover?" Rainbow shouted at the doctor.
"Oh, the prognosis is grim... I'm afraid our dear Monsieur Mane has worried himself into a state of ponyshock. Without the restorative properties of a Refresh-cupcake, there's naught we can do." The doctor said worried. The other sadly sighed, while Pinkie's mane slowly began to deflate.
But then, Twilight jumped to the scene. "Girls, i have the Refresh-cupcake." Twilight said, she held the cupcake in the air, then the cupcake floated right on top of the monsieur. It then turned into some magical glitter. The monsieur then began to glow for a few moments. When the glowing stopped, the monsieur slowly opened his eyes, and the JUMPED up, much to everyone but the doctor, Twilight, and Luna.
"HUZZAH!" Said the now healthy monsieur.
Then they heard a rumble outside. They were all confused at first. But then they saw a small white glow open. It opened a red and yellow spiral like portal. And out came the time machine. It landed on the ground, but they saw something suspicious on the time machine. The time machine... is broken.
"Wow, what the hay has happened to the time machine?" Rainbow asked. The professor walked up to the broken time machine.
"Well, take gander at that! The time machine's returned! Something's amiss, through... What could've gone wrong?" The professor said.
"Maybe it landed on a mountain top or something?" Pinkie asked.
The monsieur while still in his wheel chair with the help of Rarity drove up to the time machine. "Oh, Princess! Welcome home!" The monsieur said. The gate then opened. "Your Majesty! I've been fraught with..." The monsieur said... before all of them saw... two red eyes glow. And then two green claws with only two claws came out, one by one. They then saw a scary green monster slowly coming out of the time machine. All of them screamed at it. When it finally came out fully. It was triangular, it's top had light green spots, it's lips were also light green. It roared angrily. Both the professor and Rarity ran away. "W-Wait! Mistress Rarity!" He shouted to Rarity. Then the green monster hit the monsieur's wheel chair away. It roared again. Then Twilight, Applejack, and Rainbow dash, jumped up to the beast.
"I think we may need to teach this varmint a lesson." Applejack said.
"I totally agree." Rainbow dash said.
"Applejack, Rainbow, let's take that monster down." Twilight said. They both nod in agreement. The monster then roared again. And began charging at them.
[Boss battle: Unknown green monster]
Twilight jumped at it. Dealing it damage. Then Rainbow charged at it. Dealing it damage. Then Applejack bucked it right in it's mouth. That's gotta hurt.
But the monster haven't given up just yet. It then roars, and spins like a little tornado, charging at all three of them, they managed to dodge. The monster looked a little dizzy afterwards.
They then attacked it again, Twilight then shoots a magic beam at it. Rainbow kicks it from behind. The monster begins to look very tired. And then Applejack bucks it right in it's forehead. It then felt down, unconscious.
[Boss battle end]
"Yay, you beat that big meany pants!" Pinkie said in victory.
"Did you really have to hurt it so much?" Fluttershy asked, a little concerned about the monster.
"I'm sorry Fluttershy darling, but we had no choice." Rarity said.
Rainbow then decided to look inside the time machine. And after a few moments. She flew out. And shouted "No sign of the princess! No! NO! NOOOOOOOO! That awful monster...". Everypony's shocked at that, they looked sadly at each other. Was the princess killed by this monster?
"Just take 'er easy, now. She wasn't this feller's breakfast. The others sighed in relief. He then pulls out a device with a screen on top, and on below. "My DS time radar puts Celestia somewhere in the Mushroom Kingdom of yesteryear." The others looked at disbelief at the professor.
"Time radar? TIME RADAR?! You just made that up! Where'd this monster come from, then?" Rainbow shouted at the professor's face. That i don't know. And with the time machine this dinged up, we're not going anywhere." The professor said back to Rainbow. Princess Luna was very worried, about her sister's safety.
But then, Rarity came running to the others.
"You won't believe what i just saw. I saw something very very horrid outside the gardens." Rarity said, barely catching her breath.
"What's that? Calm down and speak slowly!" The professor said to Rarity.
"Sorry darling, i panicked. I saw a hole rise from the garden right outside the garden." Rarity said. Everyone got surprised at that.
"A mysterious hole has appeared in the garden?" The Professor asked. The professor then said to himself. "Hmm... It's possible the return of the machine tore holes in the time continue...".
"That sounds scary" Fluttershy said.
"To the garden, fellers!" The professor said. Then all of them walked to the garden.
All of them were very surprised. There is indeed a hole appearing from the ground. It spiraled just like the time portal.
"As i suspected... IT'S A TIME HOLE! " The professor shouted in surprise.
"So that's a time hole huh?" Applejack said.
"Interesting!" Was all Luna could say.
"Yessiree, this time hole is a doorway to the past!" The professor said. While describing the mysterious time hole. "No doubt about it, it appeared because of that time machine." The professor said again.
The mane 6 looked at the suspiciously. Then Rarity got a little curious. She walked a little closer to the portal, and looked down at it.
"Careful there, young Rarity! If i'm right, that time hole leads back in time!" The professor warned Rarity. "So you're saying that if we travel in that portal, we will go back in time?" Rarity asked the professor. "Yep, to a younger Equestria. Question is, to WHERE in Equestria?!" The professor asked himself.
"Oh i know, maybe Sugarcube corner!" Pinkie guessed. Everypony rolled their eyes at Pinkie.
"The other question is, if a feller were to jump in, could he even make it back..." Said the professor. The others looked at each other. Then Fluttershy raised her hoof.
"Uhh... Let's please not find out." Fluttershy said, a little worried about the time hole.
"Or maybe, we can use it to find out where Princess Celestia is in the past." Twilight suggested to the professor. The professor thought for a moment.
"Hm? Use this time hole to find the Princess Celestia?" The professor asked. Twilight nods. Prof. A. Corns then thinks to himself in a moment, until he turns over to Twilight again.
"Hmm... now there's an idea. I'd bet dollars to donuts that's our best chance at finding her." The professor said. Everypony looked happy. They now know a way to find their lost princess. Princess Luna sighed in relief. But then they heard somepony yell...
"Watch out!!!" It was Monsieur Mane, he has somehow accidentally made his wheelchair charge... right at the portal. The impact made Rarity lose her balance, where she then lands on the time hole. And right as she touched it... She floats right in the air. Everypony's shocked.
"Somepony. Help Me!!!" Rarity shouted.
"Quick grab her!" Applejack shouted. All of them tried to catch Rarity. But it was too late. Rarity got sucked inside the time hole, to everyone's shock.
"M-M-Mistress Twilight! The princess! Where is Princess Celestia? And what were those lights? And what is that odd hole?! I demand answers, sir!" Monsieur Mane said to Twilight. But Twilight was too focused about Rarity disappearing in the time hole.
"Don't worry Rarity. I'm coming." Twilight shouted.
And then she did something no pony imagined she would do. She also jumped in the time hole. She then floated just like Rarity did, and then gets sucked inside the time hole. To everyone's shock again.
"MISTRESS TWILIGHT!" Monsieur Mane shouted in shock.
"Well if they're going, i'm going as well." Rainbow dash shouted. She then charged down to the time hole...
"POW"
... Only to hit it like a stone wall. And the funny thing is... nothing happened.
"Huh?! How did i not get sucked inside the portal" Rainbow dash said confused. Then Pinkie pie tried to jump into the time hole...
"POW"
...Only to result the same as Rainbow.
"Hey, i couldn't jump into the hole either!" Pinkie shouted. Then Prof. A. Corns realizes something.
"I think i know why!" The professor shouted. The others looked at him. "Only ponies who can use magic can enter the time hole!" The professor shouted again. They looked at each other, and saw that he had a good point, neither Rainbow dash nor Pinkie pie could enter the time hole, but Twilight and Rarity could, due to them being unicorns. Then Princess Luna came close to the time hole.
"Then we shall assist Twilight and Rarity. I will go into the time hole and support them!" Princess Luna said. But is stopped by Monsieur Mane. "Let me go Mane, i need to find my sister." Luna shouted at Mane. "I understand your concern dear Luna, but we need some pony who can control the sun and moon, while Celestia's gone!" Mane said to Princess Luna.
Princess Luna and the others were quiet. Because Mane has a point. If Luna leaves, there is nopony to control the sun and moon, thus creating a lot of imbalance in Equestria. The Mane 4 looked at each other.
"But... then what can we do?!" Rainbow asked.
"All we can do now... is wait Rainbow." Applejack said to Rainbow dash. But then, the professor got an idea, and took something brown, and threw it down the time hole. It floated, and then got sucked into the time hole.
"What did you just throw into the hole?!" Fluttershy asked the professor while concerned.
"Some assistants!" Was all the professor said.
To be continued.
Author's Note
Where will Twilight and Rarity end up.
Twilight and Rarity Partners In Time
Twilight was still traveling inside the time hole. She spinned around in a spiral like vortex, with yellow and pink colors.
"Woooaaarrrggghhhh!" Twilight screamed, while she was spinning around in the time hole. Then something popped up in the scream.
"Equestria past. Winsome Falls." The screen said. Before a white glow came at the end of the time hole trip. Twilight was engulfed by the glow.
Twilight then jumped out of the time hole. She landed beside the time hole, which was like a big hole, popped out of the ground. She fell down to the ground, she looked around, she recognized the place, it was Winsome Falls. But then, to her surprise, the ground felt a little... soft?
"Ooff!" Twilight heard. She looked around a little, she then looked down. She has accidentally landed at Rarity's back, who was unconscious. Twilight quickly jumped away from Rarity's back.
"Oh, i'm so sorry Rarity! I didn't mean to..." Twilight said, but before she continued, she saw something else coming from the time hole, it also landed at Rarity's back.
"Ooff" Rarity said again, while still unconscious. The thing to Twilight's surprise, looked like a suitcase... with eyes, a mouth, and even with two small legs, with shoes on.
"Watch the leather, Professor! No need for the shoving!" It yelled while looking at the time hole. Twilight was confused. She clearly wanted to know what the hay is that thing.
"Hey, Mr. Suitcase!" Twilight said to the living suitcase. That got the suitcase's attention. It turned over to Twilight.
"Oh, you must be Twilight sparkle." It said to Twilight. Twilight was a little surprised that it knows her, but shrugged it off, since it said, the professor has sent it.
"Uuhh... Yes that's me, Twilight sparkle." Twilight said to the suitcase. The suitcase looked around, to the right, and the left, like it's looking for something, or someone.
"According to the professor, there should be a Rarity here as well, but i don't..." The suitcase said. Now Twilight know why it looked around. And about that, Twilight looked down, at Rarity, who the staircase was still standing at.
"Uuhh... About that, she is right below you." Twilight said to the suitcase. The suitcase now realized that it was standing at the one known as Rarity. And to both of them's surprise, Rarity immediately jumped up, with the suitcase jumping a little back. Rarity was fully awakened from her unconsciousness, and she looks pretty frustrated.
"HOW DARE YOU STAND ON TOP OF A LADY LIKE THAT?! YOU OUGHTA LEARN SOME MANNERS!" Rarity yelled at the suitcase angrily. The suitcase looked at Rarity.
"Oh, my! Are you Rarity? I... Sorry about that." The suitcase apologized. Twilight then walked in front Rarity.
"Rarity, please calm down. The suitcase has just apologized to you!" Twilight said to Rarity. Rarity seeing Twilight, immediately calmed down, and hugged Twilight.
"Oh Twilight, it's good that i'm not alone in this place." Rarity said, while still hugging Twilight really hard.
"I know Rarity. Now can you put me down?" Twilight asked Rarity. Rarity then put Twilight down from her hug. They then both looked at the suitcase.
"I am pleased to meet you. I am known as Stuffwell." The suitcase, now known as Stuffwell told the two unicorns. "Professor A. Corns invented me. I am what is called a suitcase." Stuffwell said.
"Yeah, we noticed." Rarity said.
"The professor sent me back in time to be your assistant." Stuffwell said. The two unicorns looked at each other for a moment.
"Yes, "assistant" IS accurate... I'm more than just someplace to store your belongings." Stuffwell said. He was then cut off by Rarity.
"You can store our belongings inside you? Oh Celestia, i should have bought my dresses with me." Rarity said. Twilight poked her a little, indicating that she was disturbing Stuffwell's speech. Rarity blushed in embarrassment a little.
"I have MANY complex sensors... and various memory apparati for data retention...and...er..." Stuffwell said.
"Yes?" Twilight and Rarity asked Stuffwell.
"Well, suffice to say, I am very technologic by contraption standards. I'll be a BIG help." Stuffwell said. Now Twilight was the one who cut him off.
"Like what for an example?! You seriously need to tell me how the professor created you! Oh boy, i could really learn a lot from him!" Twilight said to Stuffwell, while holding him close to her face. Now it was Rarity's turn to poke at her.
"Twilight darling, you do remember the make him finish his speech you told me." Rarity said to Twilight, now Twilight blushed a little in embarrassment.
"Oh right, sorry Stuffwell." Twilight apologized to Stuffwell.
"Why don't we get started by having you go ahead and open me up?" Stuffwell said, before laying himself down on the ground. The two unicorns looked inside Stuffwell. It was really messy inside, but he had many things, like a few dresses, a hair brush, and a bag of Cupcakes.
"Seriously Stuffwell, your insides are messy, and needs a little pizzazz. The professor must have forgotten to install those things inside of you." Rarity complimented the insides of Stuffwell. Twilight glared a little at Rarity.
"Rarity show a little respect, he is going to help us around." Twilight said to Rarity. Rarity looks down at Stuffwell, still open.
"Oh right, sorry about that Stuffwell." Rarity apologized to Stuffwell. "None taken Rarity." Stuffwell said, before closing, and standing up again.
"BACK TO ADVENTURE!" Stuffwell shouted out, he then shrunk, while jumping to Twilight's backpack.
"Well, now that we have assistants Twilight. Don't you think that we should go back, and see our friends? I'm sure they're really worried about us." Rarity said to Twilight. "I don't know Rarity." Twilight said, much to Rarity's dismay. "Princess Celestia, is out here in the past somewhere. Somepony must find her!" Twilight said. Rarity understood Twilight's point, she really cared for her teacher.
But right before, they could make a decision, they heard a little earthquake from the time hole, they saw the time hole... Slowly disappear from the ground. Both of them especially Rarity was really shocked.
"NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Rarity yelled. She ran to the exact point the time hole were, and tried to dig the time hole out again, much to Twilight's surprise, since Rarity, isn't the type, to get her hooves dirty. "You can't leave me and Twilight here." Rarity said, while still digging.
Rarity eventually gave up, and fell to the ground, crying hysterically. "IT'S OVER TWILIGHT! WERE STUCK IN THE PAST FOREVER!!!" Rarity cried. Twilight walked over to Rarity, trying to calm her down.
"Rarity don't worry, we will hopefully find another time hole." Twilight said to Rarity, who was still crying.
"OH THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE THING!!!" Rarity yelled, still crying.
Later, Rarity has finally stopped crying. The two unicorns began their journey in the Winsome Falls. They knew that a village called the Rainbow falls was at the top. So they began their journey to the top. At the start, they saw some blocky rocks around the area. They eventually heard a voice.
"Twilight!" The voice yelled. The two unicorns were confused at first. But then they saw their backpack shake a bit, and the Stuffwell jumped out.
"If it's not inconvenient, I'd like to proceed with some basic instructional." Stuffwell said.As you know, the primary action for mobile creatures is the jump, if you follow." Stuffwell said. Rarity was a little confused.
"Uuhh... what exactly do you mean by jumping Stuffwell darling?" Rarity asked Stuffwell.
"I think he means is that we need to somehow jump on these rocks to continue." Twilight told Rarity. Rarity understood it better, but she was not much of a jumper. Stuffwell continued.
"If your timing is serviceable, the pair of you should be able to jump these ledges." Stuffwell said. The two unicorns looked at each other, Twilight was at the front, while Rarity was at the back. They walked over to the nearest rock, first Twilight jumped up to the top of it, and then Rarity, they were surprised they could actually jump so high.
"They continued jumping on all the blocks. Until they reached some rocks, with a little distance between them.
"Twilight! Rarity! Do you see the gaps in your path?" Stuffwell asked them.
"Yes we do." They both said.
"It would be a good idea if you both jumped at the same time." Stuffwell told them. They jumped over the first gap, then the second, and then the third.
"I think that's enough instructional for now." Stuffwell said, he then jumped back into Twilight's backpack. The two unicorns continued up at some stairs. They reached a cliffside, it was beautiful, very beautiful, with lots of grass and flowers. But then, they heard a noise.
"What was that Twilight?" Rarity asked Twilight.
"I don't know Rarity, let's take a look around." Twilight said. They then ran a little closer to the middle of the cliffside.
They looked around, they couldn't see where the noise came from anywhere, but then, they heard something from above them, particularly Twilight. Then a grey mare with derby eyes fell right over Twilight's head(Don't worry, the pony didn't land on Twilight's horn).
"Twilight!" Rarity shouted. She looked at Twilight, she was dizzy. Rarity then heard a voice from the grey pony.
"The... village..." It said, but Rarity barely heard her. But what got Rarity's attention more was, what was above them, many round shadow dots flew past them. They flew over to the top of the mountain. Rarity was very afraid. Then Twilight recovered from her dizziness. She looked over to the grey mare.
"Are you alright miss?" Twilight asked the barely conscious mare. "The village... Dank purple... mushrooms..." Was all Twilight heard from the mare.
"Dank purple mushrooms? What does she mean by that?" Twilight thought to herself, but she decided to find out later. She walked over to the scared Rarity, who was cowering herself.
"Rarity! Let's get going." Twilight yelled to Rarity. But Rarity was still cowering herself. Twilight then ran to the other side of the cliffside. Rarity finally stopped cowering herself. She looked back, and then saw something, she jumped of both fear, and surprise.
"OH CELESTIA!!! WAIT FOR ME TWILIGHT!!!" Rarity yelled, while running the same way Twilight ran. Some ufo's came to the place the grey mare landed. One of them then sucked the mare away inside of it, with a light green light. They eventually flew away.
Twilight and Rarity, reached some mushroom like pillars, with stairs on them. Rarity looked at Twilight.
"Twilight, what the hay was those things?!" Rarity shouted. Twilight however shook her head.
"Don't know, but maybe their connected to the green monster me Applejack and Rainbow dash fought." Twilight said. Through the connection between the ufo's and the green monster was still a real mystery, they decided to let it go for now and continue.
After walking a few stairs, they saw some rabbit like creatures, they were however a bit different, their fur was purple, they had white spots on their heads, and had red evil looking eyes. They were both confused, and a little afraid of the weird looking rabbits. They heard a familiar voice again.
"Twilight!" The voice yelled, it was once again Stuffwell. He jumped out of the backpack.
"I understand your urgency, but who knows the dangers ahead?" Stuffwell asked. Twilight and Rarity looked at him. He did have a point, they should be prepared for upcoming fights.
"It would be prudent to get you battle-ready before moving on!" Stuffwell said.
"I don't know, i'm an elegant mare with manners you know." Rarity said, almost declining to participate in a battle. "A lady shouldn't really fight." Rarity said with her usual posh attitude. But then one of the weird rabbit like creatures arrived.
"Well, look at this! The perfect practice for you." Stuffwell said. He then looked over at Twilight."
"Twilight! Jump on that rabbit thing!" Stuffwell said to Twilight. Twilight was however skeptical to Stuffwell's idea.
"What?! We can't just hurt other animals. What would Fluttershy say?!" Twilight yelled to Stuffwell. Rarity nods in agreement, since neither of them would intentionally hurt innocent animals. But then the rabbit creature walked closer to them.
"Fine. Guess we don't have a choice." Twilight said. She then jumped on the rabbit creature. The creature got damaged, that also alerted some other rabbit creatures.
[Enemy battle]
Twilight and Rarity was ready. One of the rabbit creatures showed it's left foot, it then spinned over to Rarity. Rarity managed to jump to dodge in time. Then the second one showed it's right foot, it spinned over at Twilight. Twilight also managed to dodge the attack. Rarity then jumped on one of them. It disappeared in a small explosion.
"Not bad Rarity, you are really good, for somepony who makes lots of dresses." Twilight commented Rarity.
"Well i usually don't fight, but i can make an exception, if it's self defense." Rarity said. Twilight and Rarity then decided to end the battle, they used their magic together, lifting the rabbit creature up, and then throw it up in the air.
[Enemy battle end]
After defeating the rabbit creatures. They continued their journey up. They continued up in the stairs, but then halfway up, Rarity heard something and stopped, Twilight then also stopped and looked back at Rarity.
"What's wrong Rarity?" Twilight asked Rarity.
"I don't know darling, i think i can hear something from the sk..." Rarity said, before she got her head bashed, by the same rabbit creature they threw up in the air, which has just fallen down at Rarity's head.
"RARITY!" Twilight yelled, she ran over to see Rarity, she was really dizzy. Stuffwell then jumped out.
"Are you operational, Rarity? Do you need service?" Stuffwell asked. But Rarity was too dizzy to answer. "It appears you've taken some damage." Stuffwell said.
"You think?" Twilight said a little annoyed at Stuffwell.
"What fortulent timing! I have something to help her." Stuffwell said, making Twilight sigh in relief. They both looked at Rarity, who was still dizzy.
"Ah... I know you're groggy, but try to focus Rarity." Stuffwell said, before opening himself. "It's a good thing, that the professor gave me two cupcakes, give one to Rarity, and she will be fine, in no time." Stuffwell instructed Twilight. She found a cupcake in Stuffwell, and gave it to Rarity, even through she was dizzy, she could still eat it. Rarity then recovered from the dizziness. Stuffwell closed himself.
"BACK TO ADVENTURE!" He yelled, with his usual catchphrase. They both looked at Rarity for a moment, and then she jumped up, fully healthy, and fully recovered.
"My, i feel like i've been restored quicker than the hospital!" Rarity said.
"That's good Rarity, now let's continue. The village, Rainbow Falls, is close." Twilight said to Rarity. They then continued up, they eventually fought some more rabbit creatures, and won. And then, they were finally at the top. They then continued, with Rainbow Falls up ahead.
They have arrived to the Rainbow Falls. But then they gasped, what they saw was a huge shock, the Rainbow Falls is being attacked. Many damaged houses, only a few ponies left, the ufo's were attacking with their laser guns. They also sucked away the villagers, one by one. When they have thought that they've captured all of the villagers, the ufo's flew away. Twilight and Rarity, shrug off their shock.
"Oh, how could those ruffians do something so horrid?" Rarity said, angrily. Twilight was also angry, because of the destruction those ufo's has done, destroying or capturing innocent ponies.
"Rarity, let's find, if they're any villagers left, perhaps we can get some more answers." Twilight said to Rarity. Both of them looked around at the fallen remains of the Rainbow Falls, there were craters almost everywhere, the houses were almost completely broken, and the beautiful trees around, was burned to crisp.
Twilight and Rarity searched the houses, but not a single pony were in any of them. They then saw the final house, it was the biggest, it has a sign beside the door.
"The mayor's home." It stood. Both of them looked at each other.
"Rarity, let's go see if the mayor's house, has something useful." Twilight said to Rarity, before both of them walked inside the house. When they both were inside the house, they heard a very small voice, which almost rivaled Fluttershy's whispering.
"Mrrrrrrf... Mmmph..." The small voice said. That got the two unicorns attention.
"What was that Twilight?" Rarity asked. "Was it a ghost?" Rarity asked again, Twilight gave Rarity a weird look.
"No Rarity, there is no ghosts here. But we need to find where the voice came from." Twilight said.
"Right!" Was all Rarity said. They both looked around the mayor's house. They found nothing but christmas trees, unopened presents, and a desk, with papers all over it. They then saw the fire place. They saw something coming out of it. Two pony legs, and a tail.
"Is... anybody there? Hello?" The voice said, it sounded like a stallion. Twilight walked up to the fire place, where the stallion were hiding.
"Yes, but we mean no harm. Are you alright? Why are you hiding." Twilight asked, with many questions in her head.
"What happened to those awful Shroob things? Are they gone?" The mayor said, what got the mares the shock, was when the stallion said, the Shroobs. What are those things? Are they the ufo's. They had many thoughts in their minds. They both then looked over to the stallion.
"No, i think they're gone." Twilight said to the worried stallion. "By the way, who are you?" Twilight now asking.
"Me? I'm the mayor of this village. Nice to not see you!" The stallion said.
"I see." Rarity said. "Oh, and may i ask, why are you in the fire place?" Rarity asked the mayor.
"I was trying to hide from those Shroob things and got stuck..." He said, while stuck in the fire place. "There must be a way out... that doesn't involve dieting." The mayor said, clearly not the one, who wanted to go on a diet. The two mares looked at each other, and got an idea.
"Okay mr. mayor, hold still, were gonna use our magic to push you out." Twilight said. Twilight and Rarity used their magic to give the mayor a mighty push. The mayor flew out of the chimney, and landing on the ground. Revealing himself to be a red stallion, with a white mane.
"Ho ho! Safe at last!" The mayor said. Or so he thought, he then saw three purple mushroom like aliens, with white spots on their heads, white claws, and red eyes. He tried to walk back, but he got surrounded, when three ufo's returned. He looked around, there was no way to escape.
Twilight and Rarity meanwhile while still inside looked up at the chimney.
"Do you think he's still stuck in the chimney Twilight?" Rarity asked her lavender unicorn friend.
"I don't think so. Because then he would have yelled..." Twilight said, before hearing a loud yell from the outside.
"HEEEEEELP!" The voice yelled out. The two mares was surprised, and then looked back at the front door.
"I would have said, "Could use a hoof here" but the mayor, apparently needs help with something!" Twilight said. The two mares then ran outside the house. When both of them were outside, they saw the mayor, extremely afraid. He was stunned out of fear, but what surprised them more, was the purple mushroom looking creatures.
"Are those, the Shroobs?" Both Twilight and Rarity thought to themselves. Then one of the ufo's took the mayor with their light green light, much to their shock. The ufo's then flew away again. Twilight and Rarity tried to run after them, but it was no use, they were already gone.
"Get back here you ruffians!" Rarity yelled to the ufo's.
"You can't just foalnap other ponies like that!" Twilight yelled to them. Then both of them turned around, they saw the three Shroobs were still looking at them. They talked with each other, with a language they couldn't understand.
"What are they saying?" Rarity whispered to her friend.
"How should i know." Twilight answered back.
"The aliens looked at each other, while speaking their unknown language. They then looked back at Twilight and Rarity. The two unicorns then took a fighting stance.
"I guess we have to fight them Rarity." Twilight said.
"I'm right behind you Twilight." Rarity said. Then the three Shroobs charged at them.
[Boss battle: 3 Shroobs]
All of them looked ready to fight, but then, one of the Shrubs took out some sort of Nintendo DS phone like thing. It talked to the phone. Then without the two unicorns seeing it, an ufo arrived above them, with a count on it, it says 3.
"What do you think it was calling?" Twilight asked.
"Perhaps just calling a dentist time or something." Rarity said.
Twilight started out, by jumping on the Shroob, standing closest. Then Rarity, did the same, on the Shroob to the left. The counter now says 2. One of the Shroobs now attacked, it spinned around, and shooted a laser blast at Rarity, which she dodged. Then the next one, showed it's claw, and then shot a laser blast at Twilight, she also managed to dodge. The third one spinned around, and a laser blast was shot out at Rarity, she dodged again.
Twilight then used her magic, to shoot a beam at one of the Shroobs, it took some good damage. Rarity did the same, and shooted, some magic beams at another Shroob. The counter now says 1.
The Shroobs then repeated the same as before, spinning around, to shoot at Rarity, or show it's claw, and shoot at Twilight. They managed to dodge all the attacks.
"Ok Twilight, just a few more hits on these ruffians, and i think they got what they deserved!" Rarity said, but Twilight wasn't really sure, she felt something was a little odd, in this battle.
"You know Rarity, i think this is going a little too easy." Twilight said.
"Oh gosh now Twilight, we have almost defeated them, what could go wrong?" Rarity said, but right after she said it, the counter hit 0. The ufo then brought out a huge laser cannon. Shooting a large and powerful blast, right down at Twilight and Rarity. When they looked up, they panicked.
"I SEE YOUR POINT NOW TWILIGHT!" RARITY yelled over to Twilight.
"HURRY RARITY, WE MUST GET AWAY BEFORE..." Twilight yelled, but her sentence was cut off, when the blast hit them, dealing them damage so huge, that they both fell down to the ground, unconscious. The Shroobs then raised their hands, and cheered in victory.
[Boss battle end?]
The Shroobs looked at the unconscious Twilight and Rarity, they jumped up and cheered in victory.
To be continued.

Twilight and Rarity Partners In Time
Chapter 3: Chrysalis's airship and rescue
"Meanwhile, high above Rainbow Falls, the Changeling Airship cruises..." The screen said, while highly above the Rainbow Falls, a huge airship, which was based of a changeling is flying there.
Inside the mouth part, the past Twilight Sparkle, and Rarity are playing around, while Baby Princess Celestia, is watching them, while she's sitting on a pink filly carriage. But then, three Shroob ufo's flew past them, and then floated right behind the airship. The first one took out a laser gun, and shooted the airship, thus shaking the airship on impact. Twilight and Rarity jumped in surprise, and then Twilight panicked, while Rarity and filly Celestia begun to cry. Red magical alarms activated from the room, while the sirens made alarm sounds. A speaker appeared from the ceiling.
"EMERGENCY! EMERGENCY!" The speaker yelled out, before disappearing. Then the young Monsieur Mane crawled up to the room, and then looked at the crying Princess.
"PRIIIIIIIINCESS!" Mane yelled out for Celestia. He crawled further to the young princess, and then stood up, at his hooves again.
"Oh! Oh, Princess! Never fear, my dear. Mane is here." Mane said, while beginning to grab the filly carriage. Celestia then calmed down, and stopped crying.
Come! Let's get you to safety!" Mane said, while walking out of the room, with Celestia. The speaker appeared once again, but with a different voice this time.
"This is the great Princess Chrysalis! Kneel, minions! OK, now get up! All personnel to the bridge!" The voice, which belonged to Princess Chrysalis yelled out. The speaker then disappeared again. Twilight began to calm down from her panic, but Rarity still cried in panic. Twilight made a few noises to Rarity, in order to get her attention, but she still cried. Filly Twilight then decided to just push her white filly friend with her instead. Filly Twilight exited the room, while pushing Filly Rarity with her.
A little later, Filly Rarity has finally calmed down, and the two filly unicorns made their way, to the bridge. They both walked through some boxes, and also needed to jump over some. After making it through all the boxes, even while the airship is getting shot at, they finally made it to the bridge. In there was Filly Celestia, Princess Chrysalis, and a few Changeling minions, who was controlling the airship. Princess Chrysalis was ready to give her crew commands.
"Time to show these alien Jerks what the Chrysalis Airship can do! Fire the Changeling Cannon!" Princess Chrysalis commanded. The Changeling crew obeyed, and prepared a semi large cannon, behind the airship.
"FIRE!" A Changeling yelled to the others. "FIRE!" Two others responded. The airship then flew a little higher up, much to the Shroob ufo's confusion. The cannon on the airship's end, then shot out a large spike ball, which hit all the Shroob ufo's separately. Chrysalis began to laugh in victory.
"Bwah ha ha ha HAAA! I am just so dang EVIL!" Chrysalis laughed. "I hope they felt honored to be shot down by me!"
"You're the best, Princess Chrysalis!" A Changeling crew member praised her.
"You're a Changeling's Changeling!" Another Changeling crew member also praised her.
"Bwah ha ha ha!" Chrysalis laughed, while being happy of her crew's praise. But then they felt, that they were falling down a bit, much to everyone's surprise.
"YOW!" Chrysalis yelled in surprise.
The Chrysalis Airship was now floating, on top of the Rainbow Falls. A crew member looked a little nervous, as the Changeling Princess grew angry.
"Hey! You call that piloting?! Pay attention, sky-nerd!" Chrysalis angrily said, who has just noticed the reason why the airship fell down a bit. Then another crew member spots something below them.
"Princess Chrysalis! There! 4 o'clock!" The crew member said, while pointing down below them, which were the same Shroobs from the Rainbow Falls, who were still cheering, and jumping in victory, over two unconscious unicorns.
"Those villagers are under Shroob attack!" The crew member informed Chrysalis.
"Your... Your Orders? Should we help them?" Another crew member suggested. But the Changeling princess ignored the suggestion.
"Aw, man... It's half past snack time already!" Chrysalis said, who obviously tried to ignore it. "We... We saw nothing! Everybody clear on that?" Chrysalis added, but then Filly Celestia began to cry, incredibly loud, shocking all the others inside.
"Great hoogly-boogly! The princess does NOT approve of this! Young Mistress Chrysalis! Abandoning those ponies is reprehensible!" Monsieur Mane said. And to add more crying on, Filly Princess Celestia began to cry even louder, which even made the ship shake a bit. The crew, Princess Chrysalis, Twilight and Rarity all covered their ears in respond.
"MY EARS! She'l ruin us all!" Chrysalis screamed in agony. She eventually sighed in defeat, knowing it's the only way, to cease her crying.
"Fine! I'll help them if it'll just SHUT HER UP! Changeling Cannon! FIRE!" Chrysalis commanded, who has finally decided to help the village(so she could make Celestia ~~shut up~~ quiet).
"FIRE!" Her crew responded. The airship flew over to a small canyon, and then shot another spike ball, which landed on one of the Shroobs, and send the others flying. Chrysalis then walked over to Filly Celestia, who has finally stopped crying.
"There! Happy?" Chrysalis said, while looking at calmed down Celestia. She then turned over to Filly Twilight and Rarity. "You two take care of things from here. Fo get 'em, Purple! You too, Whitie!" Chrysalis commanded the two fillies. The airship then landed on the canyon below them. Both Twilight, Rarity, and Monsieur Mane exited.
"Young mistresses, if you would please go check on those unfortunate villagers. That, i believe will make the princesses most pleased, and perhaps avoid future tantrums." Mane advised the two fillies. "I shall wait right here for your no-doubt triumphant return. Tallyho and all that!"
The two filly unicorns did as told, and begins to walk to the ruined village. They searched the village, for any pony survivors. They continued to look around the destroyed village, until they decided to look, at the same place, the spike ball has landed. When they arrived, they saw the fallen spike ball, and two unconscious unicorns. They walked over to them, and poked at them to see if they're alive. A Shroob came out of the spike ball(who has somehow survived it). Along with another one appearing. The two Shroobs looked at Filly Twilight and Rarity, and was ready to fight. The two Shroobs talked with their usual language, which surprises the two fillies, and turned over to the Shroobs, who charged at them.
[Boss Battle: 2 Shroobs]
The two fillies started by jumping on one Shroob each. The Shroob to the right, was jumped on by Filly Twilight, and the Shroob to the left was jumped on by Filly Rarity.
The first Shroob started by showing it's claw, and shooted a blast at Filly Twilight, who dodged in respond. The other one spinned around, and shoots a blast at Filly Rarity.
"Young Mistresses!" A voice yelled to them, which was revealed to be Monsieur Mane, who has just arrived as support. "Let's give you two some Bros. Items, shall we? These items require you to attack as a duo! Please, you two, take these Green Shells." Mane said, while throwing some green turtle shells over to them. The two fillies nodded to Mane, and begins to use one of the shells. Filly Twilight started by bucking her Green Shell at the first Shroob, who took damage on impact. The shell then spinned over to Rarity, and she bucked it to the same Shroob in respond. They continued doing so, until the Shroob disappeared in an explosion. They then repeated the same strategy, and used their remaining shell, to defeat the last Shroob. The two fillies cheered in victory.
[Boss Battle End]
After their victory cheer, they looked back to the two unconscious unicorns.
"That was rather close, eh?" Mane said, while taking a closer look at the two unicorns. The first one was lavender similar to Filly Twilight, and the other was white similar to Filly Rarity. And another funny thing is, they have the same Mane styles as the two filly unicorns.
"Now that i see these villagers close up, they bear a striking resemblance to the two of you!" Mane pointed out to the two fillies, who in respond looked closer at the two unicorns. And Mane was right, the two unicorns looked exactly like them, except they looked 18 years older.
"But who knows when more of those awful aliens will return? I believe it best to take these two to Mistress Chrysalis's ship." Monsieur Mane suggested, which the two fillies nodded in agreement. The two filly unicorns used their magic, to drag the unconscious unicorns to the airship, with Monsieur Mane helping. Once all of them were inside the airship, it begins to fly up in the air again.
A few minutes later or so, the two unicorns were starting to regain consciousness.
"My my, it seems that our unicorn guests, are waking up!" Monsieur Mane said, while both Filly Celestia, Filly Twilight, and Filly Rarity and himself looked at the now fully awakened unicorns.
"Wow, i felt like i was getting stomped on, by a giant crab." The white unicorn said while feeling a little dizzy.
"And i felt like my library has just felt down on my head." The purple unicorn said, while also feeling dizzy. Mane, along with the unicorn filly duo walked up to them, to see if they were alright.
"Why hello my ladies. Are you two alright?" Mane asked, while seeing at the two unicorns, now fully conscious. They looked around, and got confused.
"Where are we?" The purple unicorn asked.
"Why you have just been saved, my dear." Monsieur Mane said, while getting smiles, from the two unicorns.
"Well, thanks for saving us sir. We don't know what could have happened to us, if you didn't show up." The white unicorn said elegantly. Monsieur Mane however shook his head.
"No no my lady. You got it all wrong. I didn't save you. Mistress Twilight, and Mistress Rarity did." Mane said, who now got confused looks, from the two unicorns.
"Wait what?!" They both yelled out in surprise. They then heard a few filly noises. They looked to the right, and saw Filly Twilight, and Filly Rarity waving at them. Monsieur Mane became quite confused, at the small outburst.
"Why, is that a way, to say thank you, for saving you?" Mane said, slightly annoyed. The two unicorns then looked at Mane.
"So sorry mister. We got a little confused." The purple unicorn said, before beginning to introduce herself. "My name is Twilight, Twilight Sparkle." The purple unicorn, now known as Twilight said, which earned a confused look on Mane. The white unicorn began her own introduction.
"And my name darling, is Rarity." The white unicorn now known as Rarity said. Mane was now completely flabbergasted, and almost had his jaw dropped to the ground.
"Wait. You have the same name as Mistress Twilight and Mistress Rarity?! How... How is that possible?" Mane said flabbergasted. The two unicorn fillies only looked slightly confused.
"Well, maybe we should say this in a prober way. Me and Rarity are from the future." Twilight said.
"Ahhh, so that's why you look exactly like those two fillies. You are them, from the future!" Mane said, now fully understanding.
"And we want to ask you some questions." Rarity said, while both unicorns looked at Mane.
"I want to ask some too my ladies. But ladies first." Mane said, ready to answer some questions.
"Those monsters... Their arrival seems like a horrible dream... It was all so sudden... Foul parasites from the Shroob planet, land of utter creepiness! Their purpose is oh-so clear! They wish to take all we hold dear in Equestria! Our land... Our very lives!" Mane's voice said, while showing back in time. In Ponyvile, ponies were happily talking with each other. But then they saw numerous of mysterious dots, appearing from the ground, while it's actually above them. It was the Shroob ufo ships shadowy dots, and all the ufo's began taking out laser guns, and shooted laser blasts all over Ponyvile.
"Oh, the village is in ruins... And our beloved castle as well!" Mane's voice said, while showing back the part, where Canterlot was being attacked by the Shroobs, while Filly Twilight, Filly Rarity, Priness Chrysalis, and Monsieur Mane while holding Filly Celestia, is panicking. The Canterlot castle hall has been gravely damaged, the halls crumbled, and the walls and towers were being either rammed at, or being shot by laser blasts. A pony arrived in a panic.
"F-Flee! Flee! We must escape! The castle is lost!" The pony said, before a ufo broke through the castle. It flew inside the castle, and abducted the pony. Chrysalis then took out a walkie talkie.
"Princess Chrysalis here! Come in Kamek! Get the Chrysalis Airship here, on the double!" Chrysalis commanded. The ufo then took out it's laser gun, and began charging it. But then they heard a yell, from outside the ship.
"MY PRINCESS! " The voice, which was presumedly Kamek yelled out. The Chrysalis Airship arrived, ramming through all the Shroob ufo's, and then shot out a spike ball, on top of the ufo inside the castle. Now that the ufo's are gone for now, they all stopped panicking.
"Princess Chrysalis! Let's hightail it out of here!" Kamek yelled out, to his princess. The flashback then ends.
Back in the present(filly Twilight and Rarity's present), Monsieur Mane has just finished his story to present Twilight and Rarity. The two unicorns from the future, has just explained their story,
"And THAT is how the princess and i were rescued by Mistress Chrysalis, odd as that sounds." Mane said. Twilight and Rarity agreed, since it's quite awkward, to be saved by one of their arch enemies.
"And now... Almost all of Equestria has fallen under Shroob control." Mane said, while earning shocked expressions from the two unicorn mares.
"No. We're too late." Twilight said, while getting tears in her eyes. Rarity gave her a comforting hoof.
"Sshh Twilight. It will be alright." Rarity comforted her friend. Then one of the Changeling pilots yelled out the current info, of their flight.
"Status report, Your Badness! We are currently on approach to Canterlot castle." The pilot said. The airship flew past the castle, giving a close look at it's current state.
"Our once beautiful castle... No... Look at it now." Mane said, while Twilight and Rarity looked out at the window, and what they saw, gave them a shock of their life. The castle towers looked like mushrooms, it had cannons all over it, the pond water has been replaced by some mysterious green slime like water, and the top of the tower has been replaced by a giant statue, which looked like a humanoid princess like figure, but her head looked like a mushroom, except more humanoid, and had two pointed clawed fingers similar to the other Shroobs.
"Can... Canterlot castle?!" Twilight said in shock.
"It was supposed to be... Beautiful." Rarity also said in shock.
"No doubt those fiends call it Shroob Castle." Mane said, with the two unicorns now knowing, Canterlot castle's new name. "Rumor has it their leader is there. Princess Shroob..." Mane said, which earned a frightened look on Rarity.
"I simply don't wanna imagine, how it is to meet her." Rarity said, while shivering. Twilight then walked in front of Monsieur Mane, in order to ask him something.
"Excuse me Mane. But do you think Princess Celestia, is being held prisoner somewhere in there?" Twilight asked, only to get a confused look from Mane.
"Eh? What's that you say? Princess Celestia is being held prisoner in the castle?" Mane said, before chuckling a bit. "Ho ho! Surely you jest. The princess is quite safe and sound right here with me." Mane said, while Twilight and Rarity face hoofed in respond.
"No no. I didn't mean the Princess Celestia you are holding. I mean Princess Celestia from the future." Twilight explained.
"Hmm? I beg your pardon? The future Princess Celestia? The future Mistresses Twilight and Rarity?" Mane asked, while earning a nod from Twilight. Mane however chuckled a bit in respond.
"Ho! Ho ho! You poor ladies... You've gone a bit daffy, eh? Your noggins must have gotten bonked. Perhaps a nap?" Mane said, not really understanding the situation. Twilight almost face hoofed, since she and Rarity has already explained it to him, but now he hardly listens. Then they heard the sirens alarm.
"What's going on?" Rarity asked, while getting a little nervous. Chrysalis jumped up and down.
"Status report! NOW!" Princess Chrysalis said, while demanding an explanation.
"Your Foulness! We're receiving some sort of transmission from Canterlot... I mean, Shroob Castle!" The Changeling crew member said.
"A transmission? Put it on the monitor! Let's see what's up." Chrysalis said, while making a magical screen appear, on the wall. The sirens stopped, and they saw a Shroob looking princess, on the screen, giving a menacing look. Rarity almost fainted at the sight of her.
"Is that... Princess Shroob?" Twilight thought. Then the Shroob princess said something, but couldn't understand it, since it's talking in Shroob language.
"Who's this hag?" Princes Chrysalis asked curiously. Mane begins to panic hysterically at the sight of the Shroob.
"Th-That must be Princess Shroob! Undoubtedly!" Mane said, with fear in his voice. Twilight and Rarity begins to show both angry and fearful expressions, while their filly selves merely cheered. Princess Shroob said something in her own language, and then raised her arms up in the air.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Rarity said confused.
"Man... Does anyone have ANY idea what she's blabbing about?" Chrysalis said, not knowing more than Rarity. The sirens then alarmed once again, and a scared pilot sees something coming.
"Ack! P-Princess Chrysalis! Fr-From Shroob Castle... It's a Shroob missile, and it's headed straight for us!" The pilot said. Twilight, Rarity, and Mane gave very fearful expressions in respond.
"What?!" Twilight and Rarity yelled out in fear. Chrysalis got angry, and stomped on the floor.
"Whoa! Evasive action! Changeling Cannon! FIRE!" Chrysalis ordered, but no one seemed to do anything.
"No... No ammo!" A pilot said. That only made the others panic even more.
"What? You're fired." Chrysalis said in anger. The Shroob missile got closer to the airship, and it hits dead on to them.
"BOOOOOMMMMM!!!" The airship has been hit.
"Direct hit!" A pilot screamed.
Princess Shroob laughed menacingly, and the screen ended.
"Those alien DIRTBAGS! We gotta hold it together until we get back home!" Chrysalis yelled out. The greatly damaged airship begins to float closer to Chrysalis's kingdom.
"I DON'T WANNA DIE LIKE THIS! TWILIGHT, IT'S BEEN NICE MEETING YOU!" Rarity screamed, while holding very close to Twilight, who also holded her.
"IT'S BEEN NICE MEETING YOU TOO RARITYYYYYYYY!!!" Twilight screamed, before the airship begins to crash down, at Chrysalis's kingdom. All of them flew out in respond.
To be continued.

Twilight and Rarity Partners In Time
Chapter 5: Everfree Forest and the Vim Factory part 1
The four unicorns of the past and present, were still traveling through the time hole.
"Equestria past. Everfree Forest." The screen said. Before a white glow came at the end of the time hole trip. The four unicorns were engulfed by the glow.
Soon, Twilight, Rarity, along with their filly counterparts were sent flying out of the time hole. They all managed to land on their hooves in time.
"Do time holes ever know, when to send a lady out, gently?" Rarity humphed, as she made sure Filly Rarity was okay.
"Focus Rarity. Now where are we this time?" Twilight asked, as she and her filly counterpart checked their surroundings. They were in some kind of dark forest.
A very familiar dark forest, as both Twilight and Rarity began to shake a little out of worry, while the clueless Filly Twilight and Filly Rarity were confused.
"This is... the Everfree Forest." Twilight shook in slight fear. As they looked around, and saw dark bushes and trees everywhere.
"Out of all the places, why the Everfree Forest?!" Rarity screamed.
"Wait, Rarity, I don't see any of the creatures around." Twilight realized, as she couldn't see any of the Everfree creatures around. She activated her horn to detect nearby life, but couldn't feel a spark of any Everfree life nearby. "Nor can I actually detect them."
"You're right Twilight. Almost like they've vanished. Where's the creatures in the forest?"
"I don't know. But something tells me, that the Shroobs are behind it." Twilight said, as she put all her fear and worry aside.
"I agree. Those ruffians should pay for turning the places around here into wastelands." Rarity nodded, as she stood ready for action. "So where should we go?"
"Lets start with this way." Twilight said, as she pointed to the right direction.
The two unicorns, along with their filly counterparts then started walking the right path. They continued forward, until they reached a very large tree in front of them.
"Okay, we are now nearby a very large tree. Where do you think we go now Rarity?" Twilight asked her friend.
"Anywhere to get out of this dreadful..." Rarity said, but before she could continue, the four suddenly heard something.
"...l...i....g...h...t..." They heard somepony speak nearby, but it was really weak.
"Huh? Who said that?" Twilight asked, as the two unicorns sat their filly counterparts down the ground.
"M...i...s..." The same voice suddenly muttered. The two unicorns, along with Filly Twilight and Filly Rarity started checking their surroundings, but couldn't find anypony nearby.
Rarity soon started to shake in fear. "It's... not a ghost is it?"
"Rarity calm down. We've already been through this. Ghost's doesn't exist."
"I know. But if it is a ghost, it's lucky that I don't have my magical vacuum with me. But if it comes near me, I will tear it to..." Rarity threatened, before she's cut off, by the voice once more.
"Twi... ight." The voice muttered. The unicorns now realized where the voice came from.
"The voice. It's coming from that tree." Twilight realized, as she pointed to the tree. The four unicorns walked closer it, and then saw something slightly curly, dark blue, and pink.
"That... that looks kinda... familiar." Rarity said, as she got closer to the curly thing stuck on the tree. Then suddenly, it turned up.
"Twilight Sparkle..." The voice said, which turned out to be Bon Bon.
Both Rarity, and the fillies jumped up in surprise, and ran toward the bushes. Twilight however stood there quietly, as she was shocked at Bon Bon, being stuck in the tree, thanks to the vines, tying her up. "Twilight Sparkle..."
"Bon Bon?"
"Yes it's me, Bon Bon. I was... on the... time machine... with... Princess Celestia." She explained weakly.
"You were? Where's Princess Celestia? Is she alright? And why are you stuck in that tree?"
"As... as soon as we arrived... in this time... we were... attacked. A fierce... alien race known as... the Shroobs... came... out of nowhere..."
"Go on." Twilight said.
(About 20 minutes, after Chrysalis's airship retreated from Canterlot)
The time machine started appearing on top of the ruins of Canterlot. It landed in front of her old throne. Princess Celestia, along with her followers, Lyra and Bon Bon, stepped out of the time machine.
Princess Celestia was shocked at the ruins, and destroyed remains of Canterlot. "Oh my goodness! What's happened here?"
Lyra and Bon Bon continued checking their surroundings. "Was this before Canterlot Castle was built Bon Bon?"
"Don't know Lyra. But it could use a bit of... "Bon Bon replied, until she stopped, and started to shake in fear, upon what she's witnessing arriving to the throne room.
" EEEK!" They both screamed, as they both ran behind Princess Celestia's flank, and hugged each other tightly. Princess Celestia on the other hand, was recovering her senses of the Canterlot ruins, and watched, as more than a hundred Shroobs walked up to her.
"Who are you?! What are you creatures?! Tell me at once!" Princess Celestia firmly ordered them. But the Shroobs ignored her. They then turned both left and right, where the Shroobs in the middle stepped back. She then noticed a very tall female Shroob, who had a royal like figure walk up to her. Celestia assumed she was their leader.
"Who are you?" Celestia asked, but the royal Shroob didn't respond, but instead walked closer to them. Celestia, Lyra, and Bon Bon took a step back, as the royal Shroob was very close to them. It then surrounded it's alien hands with pink energy orbs, as Lyra and Bon Bon was starting to get more afraid, while Princess Celestia was shocked at the Shroob's display of power.
"Help!"
"I want my mommy!" Lyra screamed.
"Princess Celestia was... taken... by the Shroobs..." Bon Bon explained, as Rarity came out of her hiding spot, carrying both Filly Twilight, and Filly Rarity on her back. "And I was... captured by... the trees... of the Everfree Forest..."
Rarity felt bad for Bon Bon. "Oh you poor dear."
"And what's the trees for? Why did they bind you to it?" Twilight asked curiously.
"These trees... they're slowly but surely... siphoning away all our... magical power... our vim... The pure vim... then flows through the... roots of the trees.... deep, deep underground... It is gathered... at the Shroob Vim Factory... in the heart of... the Everfree Forest." Bon Bon continued. "Rumor has it... the magic is... somehow changed at the... Vim Factory. It's mixed with awful chemicals and... becomes the fuel for... the Shroob's flying saucers..." Bon Bon explained further.
The unicorns couldn't believe it more, what the awful Shroobs are planning on doing. "That's... horrible. And insane!" Twilight said, out of disgust.
"Why those ruffians." Rarity said out of anger. "Come on darling. Let us help free you from this horrid tree."
Bon Bon however shook her head. "Twilight... You must... leave me... Hasten to... the Vim Factory... It is all that matters now... besides my friend Lyra. Somewhere... in that horrid place... is a... Cobalt Star Shard... I just know it..."
"Really?" Both Rarity and Twilight asked in surprise.
"The Cobalt Star... and Princess Celestia..." Bon Bon is about to explain... until 5 flying saucers suddenly appeared above them, and started firing an energy blast toward them. The first one hit near Rarity and the fillies.
"Yikes!" Rarity screamed, as she ran back to her hiding spot with the fillies. Twilight on the other hand was at first too shocked to run.
"What the?! How did they find us so quickly?!" Twilight exclaimed, as she ran around the tree to dodge the blasts. She would've made a barrier, but the blasts they fired were too quick for her to react. As she ran for cover, one of the blasts suddenly hit Bon Bon, creating smoke around her.
Twilight gasped. "Bon Bon!"
As the smoke cleared, a purple mushroom, similar to the Shroobs was now in her place. The Bon Bon mushroom fell down to the ground, as Twilight ran up to what remained of Bon Bon.
"Oh no! What have they done to you?!" Twilight said, as she felt agony and sadness, in Bon Bon's poor fate.
"The... shards... Gather..." Was all she heard. But the rest sounded too dull for her to listen clearly, as the voice was soon too weak to listen to at all.
Rarity then arrived with he fillies. "Poor Bon Bon. Do you know a spell that can turn her back to normal?"
Twilight however shook her head. "I'm afraid not. The mushroom appears to be too resistant to my magic."
"Well those ruffians are gonna pay. Lets find the Cobalt Star, shut down the awful Vim Factory, and get back to our time." Rarity suddenly declared. Twilight felt proud for her friend's declaration to take on the Shroobs.
"I'm glad that you're in it. Lets continue, and find the factory." Twilight said, with Rarity nodding in agreement. They let their filly versions climb up to their backs, and started continuing on their path.
As the unicorns continued their way through the forest, they noticed more ponies tied to the vines of several trees in the Everfree Forest. Rarity felt disgusted by the numerous ponies, having their power sucked away. Most of the ponies around, were also too weak to even speak. They eventually reached a huge red and purple dome in front of them, along with two metallic Shroob Arms in front of the entrance.
"There is the entrance Rarity. I bet the Cobalt Star is in there." Twilight speculated.
"Normally, I would've refused to go in there. But knowing that it's the only way, to get more clues to where Princess Celestia is... i'm in." Rarity said, as they walked toward the entrance. Soon they walked inside the entrance passage, where they saw every kind of machinery inside.
"Wow. This Shroob technology must be really advanced." Twilight said, as she watched in awe, of the interior.
"Focus Twilight. The Shroobs are our enemies." Rarity reminded her, as Twilight soon snapped out of her thoughts. They then reached a large room, with two doors on the other side.
"Two doors. Which way Twilight?" Rarity asked, as she and Twilight put the fillies down.
"I don't know. But maybe we should try..." Twilight said, until suddenly, two insectoid pony like species suddenly jumped down from the ceiling. Twilight and Rarity certainly know what race they are.
"Changelings?!"
"What are they doing here?" Rarity asked. The Changelings were a bit different. They wore some sort of advanced green steel armor, both had a hammer equipped to their horns, and both wore a special helmet with an antenna above.
The right one spoke first, with a metallic light voice, none of the ponies barely understood. "AREA RESTRICTED. ALL NOOB INTRUDERS 2 B HAXORED BY US L33T HAMM3R BROZ.!"
"What did they just say?" Rarity whispered to Twilight.
"I don't know. Maybe that's almost the same Shroobs speak in pony language. The Shroobs must've brainwashed them."
Then the left one spoke, with a slightly deeper voice than his comrade. "WE R TEH SHROOB ALLIES. WE ROXOR U AND THEN ROFL. THEN U AM CRY. WE RECEIVE ORDERS THRU ANTENNAS ON THESE L33T HELMETS. THEY R HOTNESS. WE MUST OBEY ALL ORDERS. WE LIKE 2 PWN NOOBS 4 TEH MASTER SHROOBZORS. U = NOOBS. BROZ. = L33T. PREPARE FOR TOTAL PWNAGE. WOOT! WOOT! WOOT! WOOT!"
Suddenly, a large wooden nose suddenly appeared above both Twilight and Rarity. It started sucking up air with it's nostrils. Twilight and Rarity suddenly felt themselves leaving the ground.
"What's happening Rarity?!" Twilight screamed. Before Rarity could reply, both unicorns were stuck in the nostrils of the wooden nose.
"EW! So gross! Get off me!" Rarity exclaimed, as she did her best to struggle herself out of the nose. Filly Twilight and Filly Rarity both panicked, and called out for them, while the two unicorns were helplessly taken away by the wooden nose. The two Changeling then looked at the two baby unicorns.
"NOOBZ STILL R NOT PWNED. CONTINUE PWNERSHIP UNTIL ALL NOOBZ R PWNED" The right one said.
"TEH ESCAPE IS IMPOSSIBLE. WE ARE 2 L33T. WE OWNZ JOO. U WILL GET FLATZORED BY R L33T HAMMERS." The left one said, as they both prepared to fight the two unicorns.

Twilight and Rarity have been captured. Will Filly Twilight and Filly Rarity defeat the two brainwashed Changelings, and save them both? See to it next time.

Meanwhile at the exact same castle, two small baby unicorn fillies were walking through the gate. The first one is lavender, the other one is white. They were Twilight sparkle, and Rarity. They were called, to play with Princess Celestia. Why? Because a little accident has happened a few hours. Princess Celestia has accidentally become a young filly again, fortunately the scientists were working on a cure. Right in front of them, is Monsieur Mane, the young Celestia's caretaker.
"Oho! Young Mistress Twilight and Rarity! I've anxiously awaited your arrival!" Monsieur Mane said to the two unicorn fillies. Twilight and Rarity then both jumped and cried with happiness.
But just as they arrived. They saw a few unconscious babysitters, like they have fought a Timberwolf. Twilight and Rarity looked surprised, they then walked up to the babysitters, to see if they're alright. Monsieur Mane then ran up, who has just found out about the situation.
"I say! What's this hullabaloo? What of the princess?" Monsieur Mane said while panicking. The young Princess Celestia was nowhere to be seen.
They then heard a young laughter from the top of throne "Bwah ha ha ha!". All three of them got surprised. They then turned up to the throne, where a young female Changeling landed on it's hooves, she has the young Princess Celestia on her back, she then laughed menacingly "Bwah ha ha ha!". She stopped laughing.
"I, Princess Chrysalis, am taking Princess Peach with me! You two fillies can scram!" She said, trying to intimidate them.
Monsieur Mane clearly didn't want that to happen, he ran up to Chrysalis "Absolute nonsense! I rather think that you'll do NO SUCH THING! EN GARDE!" He said, and standing ready to battle the young changeling princess.
But the little evil princess just activated her horn, and shoots a little green fire ball at him. He panicked a little, until the flame on his head disappeared, he then falls to the ground unconscious.
"Bwah ha ha ha!" The evil changeling princess laughed. While the young Rarity looked at the unconscious Monsieur Mane. Twilight has decided to battle Chrysalis herself. Chrysalis then turns to Twilight.
"Your turn, Super Diaper Unicorn!" Chrysalis said, before setting baby Celestia down.
[Boss battle: Princess Chrysalis]
Twilight is taking a fighting pose, while Rarity is keeping an eye on the young Princess Celestia. Twilight begins to jump at Chrysalis's back. Chrysalis got a little damaged.
"You won't beat the mighty Princess Chrysalis!" She said before beginning to shoot a little green fire ball at Twilight. Twilight took a little damage from that. Chrysalis laughed when Twilight got hit.
The weakened Monsieur Mane then crawled up to Twilight. "Young Mistress Twilight!" Did he say, that got Twilight's attention. He walked up to Twilight.
"Sorry about fainting a moment ago... Is this your first battle?" Asked Mane.
Twilight nodded to Monsieur Mane.
"Shall i perhaps instruct you with some fighting advice?" Monsieur Mane asked. Twilight shakes her head, which indicates no.
"Ah. Truly? Very well, young Mistress Twilight!" Monsieur Mane said to Twilight, before walking behind her. "You are the young mistress!" dis he say before Twilight was ready to attack Chrysalis again.
Twilight jumped on Chrysalis once again, dealing damage to Chrysalis. Princess Chrysalis then shoots a green fire ball at Twilight, hitting her again. She laughed when it hit her. Twilight retaliated by jumping on her back again.
"Drat, i almost forgot!" Said Monsieur Mane, gaining Twilight's attention again. "You can also dodge Princess Chrysalis's fire balls. Shall i explain to you how to evade enemy attacks?" Asked Monsieur Mane young Twilight. She thought for a moment, but then declined by shaking her head.
"Ah. Truly? Very well, young Mistress Twilight! You are the young mistress!" Said Mane again.
Princess Chrysalis then shoots another green fire ball at Twilight, but this time, Twilight managed to dodge it, by jumping over it, Chrysalis got angry about it, she stomped her foot in the ground a few times out of frustration before being ready for combat again.
The fight continues, and after jumping on Chrysalis two more times, she was finally showing signs of defeat. "Urrgh... Blaagh..." Chrysalis said in agony.
[Boss battle end]
Chrysalis was laying on the ground, barely conscious. "I'm... I'm a PRINCESS! I can't lose to you! Bluuuuuuurgh..." Was all she said before losing consciousness. Twilight and Rarity then jumped in happiness due to their victory against Chrysalis... but then, they heard a mysterious noise coming outside, the windows even glowed a little with rainbow colors... and then it all just stopped. Twilight and Rarity look at each other confused. And then...
THE ENTIRE CASTLE BEGINS TO SLOWLY CRUMBLE. EARTHQUAKES WERE MADE. All of them were shocked. Outside the Canterlot Castle, some round ufo like machines, with red eyes coming out, and a purple mushroom with white spots sticking out on top, were shooting laser blasts at the castle. And it was far from over, for then the skies cleared, and thousands of more ufo's were there.
To be continued...

Twilight and Rarity Partners In Time
Chapter 4: Chrysalis's kingdom and back to the present
The Chrysalis Airship, has just crashed, in Chrysalis's kingdom, a large green castle, with a Chrysalis statue like tower on it. Twilight and Rarity, dizzily exited the airship. Twilight regained her consciousness first, while Rarity bumped into her, and then regained her own consciousness.
"Ow... That airship, could use some seatbelts next time." Twilight said, while trying to shake off her dizziness.
"Not to mention, some airbags." Rarity said, while also trying to shake off her dizziness. Stuffwell then jumped out of Twilight's backpack. She and Rarity looked at him.
"It's just one disaster after another with you two, isn't it?" Stuffwell asked the two unicorns.
"Tell me about it. My hair is completely ruined, thanks to that crash." Rarity said, while trying to fix her mane, which has been slightly ruined, due to the crash.
"Well, my keen detection skills don't pick up anyone else in the immediate vicinity." Stuffwell said, which gave the two unicorns, a surprised expression.
"What?! Are we the only survivors?!" Twilight yelled out, in shock. Although neither Twilight, nor Rarity had much concern for Chrysalis, they needed to see, if past Monsieur Mane, and their past selves are alive.
"I will go check." Rarity said, before running back into the crashed airship. A few minutes later, Rarity ran out again.
"Did you find anypony?" Twilight asked in concern. Rarity however shook her head.
"No Twilight. I couldn't find anypony, in there." Rarity said in disappointment.
"Then... What could have happened to them?" Twilight said, before she and Rarity were in their thoughts.
"Perhaps they were all thrown clear by the crash, what with the destruction and exploding." Stuffwell said, which only shocked the two unicorns more.
"WHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT?!" They both yelled out in shock. But what Stuffwell said next, calmed them down a bit.
"Acording to my ultra-radar... A new time hole has appeared somewhere in this castle." Stuffwell said. Twilight and Rarity immediately calmed down, and then Rarity jumped up in cheer.
"Yes! That means we can go home!" Rarity cheered, while dancing around. They then looked back to Stuffwell.
"I think it may be advisable to find the time hole and return to our own time for a while." Stuffwell said.
"Why that's a perfect idea Stuffwell." Rarity cheerfully said, only for Twilight to lay a hoof on her back, indicating her to calm down.
"Rarity, we haven't found the time hole yet. But let's search the kingdom, and go home." Twilight said, while Rarity nodded in agreement. Stuffwell then jumped back, to Twilight's backpack.
"But i'm still worried for Mane, and our past selves." Rarity said in concern.
"Don't worry. We will find them, before we return home." Twilight said, before she and Rarity, began to walk through Chrysalis's kingdom. They encountered some Changeling guards around, and they were defiantly not pony friendly. They managed to either sneak behind them, or defeat them. They also saw some floating blocks around, some where purple, and some were white. Twilight jumped on the purple blocks, while Rarity jumped on the white. Some of the blocks, withhold either cupcakes, or some green shells.
"Why is there floating blocks around?" Rarity asked.
"I don't know, that's just how the games are." Twilight replied, which slightly confused Rarity. They both continued, until they reached a small bridge, through some green liquid. They walked through the bridge, until they heard a baby voice... But where?
"Rarity, did you hear that?" Twilight asked. Rarity nodded, and the two unicorns, walked to the center of the bridge, while looking around.
"Why yes i did. It must be our past selves." Rarity said, while looking around the place. They couldn't see any babies around.
"Now, where did the voice come from?" Rarity speculated, before a small falling spike ball, landed on Rarity's head. Twilight is shocked, while Rarity is rubbing her head in pain.
"OOOWWW!" Rarity yelled in agony.
"Are you alright?" Twilight asked worried.
"I'm alright. But where did that spike ball come from?" Rarity asked. Both were confused, of where the spike ball came from. They then decided to look up, and saw something that shocked them. They saw their past selves, on the ceiling. Filly Twilight tries to climb up, while Filly Rarity looked worried for her friend. But eventually, Filly Twilight managed to climb up, which made them both cheer.
"Fwilight."
"Warity."
"There they are. Our past selves." Rarity said. "Fillies! Down here!" She yelled out to them, which got their attention. The two fillies looked down, and jumped of joy, in seeing their future selves. Rarity took her hooves out, indicating Filly Twilight to jump down, to her hooves. Filly Twilight did so, and landed on top of Rarity, which made her slightly dizzy. She eventually shook it off, and looked at Filly Twilight, who cheered happily to her.
"Looks like, you're alright." Rarity said in relief. Then Twilight took her hooves out, indicating Filly Rarity to jump down this time.
"Okay Filly Rarity, it's your turn." Twilight said. She couldn't use her magic to help her down, since Filly Rarity's too high off the ground, and her teleportation will only weaken her, and needed to save her strength. Filly Rarity was reluctant to jump, and deeply hesitated in jumping.
"Come on! Please jump down." Twilight said, while jumping in respond, but Filly Rarity still hesitated.
"Twilight!" A voice said, which belonged to Stuffwell, who jumped out of her backpack.
"Perhaps you should use me as a sort of cushionation device. I am, of course, well padded." Stuffwell suggested to her. "Filly Rarity would likely feel reassured by the sight of my luxurious leather." Stuffwell said.
"That's a great idea." Twilight said. Stuffwell then jumped on top of her hooves, and laid down.
"Okay Filly Rarity, it's safe to jump now." Twilight yelled up to Filly Rarity, who now felt a bit more comfortable, she slowly climbed down a chain, until she lost her grip, and fell down in fear, while screaming. But fortunately, she landed on Stuffwell's back, just as planned. Filly Rarity eventually jumped down from Stuffwell's back, and then Stuffwell jumped down from Twilight's hooves.
"We have located and been reunited with the babies." Stuffwell said.
"Indeed we have." Twilight said in agreement.
"BACK TO ADVENTURE!" Stuffwell yelled out, while Twilight nodded in agreement. Stuffwell jumped back to Twilight's backpack. Twilight then looked over to Rarity, who still saw her, watching Filly Twilight.
"Ready to continue?" Twilight asked her.
"Ready when you are." Rarity replied. They were then about to continue their journey, and almost forgot the young fillies. Just as Twilight and Rarity were about to leave, the two fillies began to cry. The two unicorns immediately stopped, and looked back to their still crying past selves.
"Oh yeah. Forgot about that." Rarity said in embarrassment.
"Twilight!" A voice said, which belonged to Stuffwell again, who jumped out once again. "Allow me a brief apology. I was rushing."
"Yeah. No kidding that they're crying, right now." Twilight deadpanned to him.
"I forgot to mention... How to move as a group of four..." Stuffwell said, which made the two older unicorns a bit surprised.
"You see, the fillies are unable to understand my communicating... What a situation..." Stuffwell said. Twilight and Rarity then decided to cheer them up, and walked over, to their respective past self. Twilight thought up something, that could cheer them up, until she got an idea.
"Filly Twilight." Twilight said, which earned her past self her attention. Twilight then quickly made a silly face, which quickly cheered Filly Twilight up. Twilight then lifted up Filly Twilight with her magic, while giving her past self, a few playful throws. Rarity then looked at her past self, and decided to do the same thing Twilight did.
"Filly Rarity." Rarity said, but that didn't earn her past self her attention, but Rarity didn't notice. Rarity then made her own silly face, but stopped once she saw, that Filly Rarity is still crying.
"Okay... What to do... What to do?" Rarity said, while thinking of a new idea. She then got a new one, and spinned around like a tornado. It temporarily got Filly Rarity's attention, but then returned to her crying, once Rarity stopped.
"You want more spinning? You can have more spinning." Rarity said, and then began to spin even faster than before, which continued, until Rarity was dizzy from all that spinning. That finally cheered Filly Rarity up. Rarity shook off her dizziness, and then gave her past self, a few playful throws, just like Twilight does.
After playing with them a little, all four of them looked at Stuffwell.
"Yes, they are not helpless! I suggest the four of you join forces and move on!" Stuffwell suggested. Twilight and Rarity jumped in acknowledgement, and both were about to continue.
"Oh! Wait a moment!" Stuffwell quickly said, which made Twilight and Rarity fall down comically, and made their past selves laugh a bit. Then Stuffwell made a speech, for how they should move together, until he got to the part, where how they will move at once.
"Twilight and Rarity can give the fillies piggyback rides and move about together!" Stuffwell said. The ponies looked at each other, and did as told. Filly Twilight, and Filly Rarity climbed up, to their respective future selves, and were now getting a piggyback.
"Now then, let's go find our poor missing companions! BACK TO ADVENTURE!" Stuffwell yelled out. Twilight and Rarity jumped in acknowledgement, and then Stuffwell jumped back to Twilight's backpack. The four of them, now continued their journey together. They saw a door, with a blue switch in front of it. The switch also has four dots on it. All four of them landed on it, and the door opened. They then entered the door. They continued their trip through, where in some cases, they needed to send their filly selves up, and help them continue, by pushing on switches. They then reached a room, where a semi-old Changeling, was flying around, looking for someone.
"PRIIIIINCESS!" He yelled out. He looked further around.
"PRINCESS CHRYSALIS!" He yelled out again. He then notices the 4 unicorns.
"Ah-HAAAAA!! You! You little Purple and White insects! Didn't i try to kidnap you once?" He said, in a threatening manner.
"Insects?! That's so rude." Rarity said, while her anger were building up. The old Changeling known as Kamek floated further towards them.
"Yeah, I did! Boy, THAT didn't work out so well.... and you don't look quite so little anymore...." He said, while taking a closer look, to Twilight and Rarity. "And you're much hairier, too...." He continued, which made Rarity even more angry. He then floated beside them.
"Weird....but none of that matters! You like bothering our budding master of evil, do you?" He said. "Then I'll bother YOU up!" He said, before using his magic, to make a Changeling guard appear. It looked angry, and charged at the heroes.
[Enemy battle]
The four unicorns were ready to fight against a Changeling guard, while Kamek is floating around. Stuffwell then jumped out of the backpack.
"Twilight! Rarity! Have you ever seen a piggyback move in battle?" He asked, which the two unicorns replied, by shaking their heads.
"No. But how does it work?" Twilight asked.
"Oh, it is fantabulous! Let me show you how this works." He said. "Now, Twilight, you attack with a jump, if you follow."
Twilight did as told, and jumped on the guard. She was about to stomp him, until Stuffwell interfered.
"First, make Filly Twilight stomp first..." He said. Just as Twilight was about to stomp the enemy, Filly Twilight quickly jumped first, while Twilight makes a backflip above the enemy.
"Then you stomp now Twilight." He said, which Twilight did so. Once Twilight landed on the ground, Filly Twilight returned to the piggyback.
"Now, Rarity, you jump to attack as well." Stuffwell commanded. Rarity did as told, and was about to land on the enemy.
"Same thing: Filly Rarity stomps first..." He said. Filly Rarity did the same as Filly Twilight, and succeeded.
"Then it's you Rarity." Stuffwell said, and Rarity succeeded with her jump, and defeated the enemy. Filly Rarity then returned to her piggyback. Kamek then appeared.
"Heh heh heh!" Kamek grinned. He then send another enemy to fight. Stuffwell then made a new tutorial.
"Next, Bros. Items. When using these while piggybacked, you can use the help from the fillies as well! When using the Green Shell, use the help of your respective past self when the shell hits the enemy!" He said. "Yes, alrighty, Twilight. Attack with the Green Shell."
"Got it." Twilight said, while taking out a green shell. Filly Twilight jumped up on top of the shell, before Twilight began to kick it. Before the shell hit the enemy, Filly Twilight spinned the shell, which made the enemy take more damage. Rarity then kicked it back, while Filly Twilight spinned it again on impact. They continued until the enemy was defeated. Kamek then arrived again.
"AAAACK!" Kamek yelled, while making an enemy appear.
"Heh heh heh!" He laughed, and then disappeared.
"Rarity, why don't you try an attack with a Green Shell as well." Stuffwell suggested. Rarity did as told, and made a Green Shell appear in her hooves. Filly Rarity then jumped on top of the shell, before Rarity kicked it toward the enemy, and Filly Rarity spinned around on impact. They then repeated kicking it, until the enemy was defeated. Kamek then arrived once again.
"Yaaaaaaaaaack! How long do I have to do this?! I'm in a hurry!" Kamek said, while once again, making an enemy appear, and then a second one.
"Now then..." Stuffwell said, before returning to Twilight's backpack. Twilight and Rarity then repeated the same strategy, and defeated the enemies, the same way, with their Green Shell, and double jump techniques.
"You know, this actually works better than i thought." Twilight said to her white friend.
"I know. We actually make a good team, with our younger selves." Rarity replied. They have now won the fight.
[Enemy battle end]
With the enemies now defeated, Kamek decided to give up, and continue searching for Princess Chrysalis.
"PRINCESS CHRYSALIS!" He yelled out, while flying away.
"Well, we beat this ruffian." Rarity said in victory.
"For now at least." Twilight said. They then continued. On the way, they had to press on buttons the exact same time, which they needed to split up. They then arrived to Chrysalis's treasure vault, which was filled with gold, and diamonds.
"Wow. Didn't know Chrysalis was that rich." Rarity said in amazement.
"Focus Rarity." Twilight simply said. But then, Filly Twilight and Rarity discovered a special treasure chest, on the center.
"No you two. Were not taking anything from here." Twilight said, while noticing Rarity, hugging a few of Chrysalis's gems.
"What?" Rarity asked. Then Filly Rarity got close to the chest, and then opened it, revealing a special kind of gem inside, and looked very familiar.
"Huh? This gem looks familiar." Twilight thought. Then the gem floated up, then around the room, and then in front of them. Stuffwell jumped out.
"What do you suppose that is? It appears trashable, but... It may ALSO be something of incalculable value." Stuffwell said.
"More like charming value, don't you agree?" Rarity said, with huge fascination with the mysterious gem.
"I think it best that we take it with us and investigate further." Stuffwell said, much to Rarity's delight. Stuffwell then jumped back, and then the gem floated over to Filly Twilight's hooves.
"You got a sparkling shard!" The screen said.
"Maybe i can use it for my dresses, when i come home." Rarity suggested to herself. She liked the new gem. The gem was then putted inside of Stuffwell.
"Alright you three. Let's continue." Twilight said to her friends. They then continued further, and then arrived to a purple door. They opened it, and saw Monsieur Mane inside, with a safe Filly Princess Celestia, in his hooves. They saw him looking suspiciously at something, and to their surprise, it was the time hole.
"Twilight look! Mane and Celestia are alright. And there is the time hole!" Rarity yelled out in delight. Mane then turned around, and saw the four unicorns.
"All right, are you? Jolly good!" Mane said. Stuffwell jumped out.
"Twilight, Rarity... That's the new time hole. BACK TO ADVENTURE! He yelled out, before looking at Monsieur Mane.
"Excuse me Monsieur Mane, but wouldn't it be a good idea, to come with us, in that time hole?" Twilight asked him, which made him incredibly paranoid, of her idea.
"Pardon me? You say we should leap into that ridiculous hole?!"
"Quite so." Rarity replied.
"Absolute rubbish! Do you honestly believe that i would place the princess in such a reckless endangerment?" Mane asked, not wanting to put Celestia's safety at risk.
"Come on, it's the time to go back to our own era. This blathering nincompooter is just arresting our progress." Stuffwell said, which made the four unicorn mares uneasy, due to seeing Mane's face getting hot red.
"You... Why, you SCOUNDREL! How DARE you refer to me as such? And it's nincomPOOP!" Mane frustratedly said, while correcting Stuffwell's insult error. Stuffwell then jumped back to Twilight's backpack.
"Well, me and Rarity are going home. Come on." Twilight said, while jumping to the time hole along with her past self. She then floated around a bit, and then disappeared from it.
"Wait for me." Rarity said, while jumping to the time hole as well, with her past self behind her. She floated around as well, and then disappeared too. Monsieur Mane was now all alone. He then became angry.
"Halt! I say! What cheek! You, i dare say, are the true nincompoops! Come back here this instant!" Mane yelled out to them, and then jumped down the time hole, floated around, and then she and Filly Celestia disappeared in the time hole.
Twilight Rarity and their past selves on their backs, were traveling on a yellow and pink spiral like vortex.
"Equestria present. Canterlot castle." The screen said. Before a white glow came at the end of the time hole trip. All four of them were engulfed by the glow.
Twilight and Rarity then got out of the time hole, which was located in another part, of Canterlot castle's garden.
"YES! We are home!" Rarity yelled out in delight. Twilight happily sighed at Rarity.
"I know. Now let's meet our friends, and the professor." Twilight said, while all four of them, walked back to the castle halls. They arrived to the halls, and saw a few differences there, a few machine controls, and a tube, which withholded the green Shroob monster from before. They saw not only the professor, but also their friends, watching the machinery.
"Hey guys!" Twilight yelled out to them, which made the others look over to them. The rest of the Mane 6, jumped on them in cheer.
"Twilight! Rarity! You are both alright!" Rainbow Dash said happily.
"Oh, i was so worried, for you two." Fluttershy said in relief.
"I was almost preparing a 'farewell Twilight and Rarity' party!" Pinkie Pie said, while holding a few balloons, with sad faces on them.
"It's good that ya'r okay sugarcube." Applejack said, while patting them on their backs, and then something surprised the other Mane 6, they saw some fillies beside them, and both of them looked like their now returned unicorn friends.
"Hey now! Back at last!" A. Corns yelled out to them, and then jumped over to them. "Stuffwell informed me that you were bringing little fellers back with you to this time." He said, which confuses the rest of the Mane 6. "And just look at this, now... They're in purple and white! I am plump astounded! But then again, what else would the little fellers be wearing, huh? Still, it sure tickles me to see little bros. Teamed up with the regular big bros. !" He said.
"Ya have a lot of explaining." Applejack said, which both Rarity and Twilight nodded to her. The two unicorns then told them about their adventure in the past. They were surprised, that they were actually saved by Chrysalis from the past, and surprised that they have taken their past selves, back to the present. Fluttershy was the notching the two fillies, while Stuffwell has just jumped out of.
"Professor! I must inform you, Equestria of the past is in gargantulent trouble!" He said, which shocked the other ponies. Twilight and Rarity then told the others, about the Shroobs. They were both shocked and disgusted, of the Shroobs current actions.
"I so wish i could go to the past, and give those Shroob thingies a buck, right in their flanks." Rainbow Dash angrily said. She already despised the Shroobs.
"Me too. If i meet a Shroob, i will buck them, at the part where the sun won't ever appear." Applejack said, with venom in her voice.
"They are nothing more than big meany pants." Pinkie Pie said.
"Can't they just... Arrive to Equestria peacefully?" Fluttershy shyly suggested, despite already being afraid of the Shroobs.
"Hmm... So it's true. These Shroob creatures have made off with the princess, eh?"
"We've gotta do something! It's the PRINCESS, for Celestia's sake!" Rainbow Dash yelled out. A. Corns thought for a bit. While they talked, Filly Twilight and Rarity has decided, to watch the green Shroob, in the tube.
"Oh, i should have mentioned, Professor... We recovered this at Chrysalis's kingdom in the past." Stuffwell said, while taking out the mysterious gem.
"I feel shame that i cannot identify it. I have no similar records in my database..." Stuffwell said, while the gem floated on top of the professor, much to the other ponies surprise.
"YOWSER! That's a Cobalt Star shard! The time machine's fuel source!" He said, which shocked the Mane 6.
"That's a part of the Cobalt Star?!" Rarity yelled out in shock.
"Why was it in Chrysalis's kingdom?! And how did it get broken?!" A. Corns asked. Then the shard floated over, to the green Shroob, and reacted a strong magical energy wave. That not only made the Shroob react strongly toward it, but also shock both Filly Twilight and Rarity.
"Good gravy! The Cobalt Star shard is driving that monster crazy!" The professor said in surprise. Once it stopped, the Shroob stopped reacting to it, and Filly Rarity began to cry. Rarity quickly gave Filly Rarity a piggyback, in order to calm her down. The shard then landed on the ground.
"Hmmmmmmmmm... Could it be... Yep, it could!" A. Corns mumbled, before returning his attention, toward the Mane 6. "I do believe there's a link between the Cobalt Star and the Shroob marauders." A. Corns speculated.
"Maybe we can figure out how to defeat these alien Meany pants if we find more Cobalt Star shards!" Pinkie Pie suggested.
"Possibly..." Was all the professor said. Then the shard floated up, and then it reached an area, and made a time hole appear there. The shard then returned, and Stuffwell placed it back.
"That shaking... Was not natural. I'd wager a new time hole just opened here in the castle..." A. Corns said. "That Cobalt Star shard is reacting to the other shards that's scattered in the past!"
"And then we can find the rest of them. Great idea professor." Twilight said, while agreeing on the professor's plan.
"Twilight! Rarity! You youngsters get going and find those other Cobalt Star shards!" He said.
"What?! You can't expect Twilight and Rarity to do all the work right?" Rainbow Dash yelled out to him.
"Rainbow Dash, i know you're concerned, but i think it's best, that me and Rarity do it." Twilight said, which made Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy surprised.
"Remember, only unicorns, alicorns, and other magical beings can enter time holes." Twilight said, reminding them another reason why.
"Besides. Me and Twilight needs to watch our filly selves." Rarity said, while noticing Fluttershy playing with Filly Twilight and Rarity.
"Awww... They are so cute." Fluttershy said warmly, while gently tickling them.
"Well, i'm gonna continue my research of this alien predator. The rest is up to you unicorns." A. Corns said. Then Twilight Rarity their filly selves, and the rest of the Mane 6, walked over, to the next time hole, which is located in one of the bedrooms, in the castle.
"It's now or never Rarity." Twilight said.
"You don't think, it'll disappear again, right?" Rarity said, remembering that the last time, they jumped into a time hole, it disappeared from the ground.
"Don't worry Rarity, if it disappears, then we will find another one." Twilight said, which made Rarity less worried. The four unicorns then jumped to the time hole, and disappeared right from it. The other Mane 6 looked in concern.
"I hope they will be alright." Fluttershy said in concern.
"Don't worry, they're both strong, and along with their past selves, nothing can st..." Rainbow Dash was about to say, until she was interrupted, by a loud voice coming to the room.
"VILLAIN! " The voice yelled, which belonged to past Mane, who was being chased by present Mane.
"I daresay that IS her! That child you're holding, sir! She's the princess, is she not?" Present Mane said, while still chasing his past self.
"Keep your distance! You're not cleared to address her Royal Highness!" Past Mane yelled, while over protectively holding Filly Celestia.
"In the short time she's been gone, she's grown so small! THIS is why i was so opposed to that infernal time device!" Monsieur Mane said, thinking that the filly Celestia, is present Celestia. The chase between them continued.
"Someone! Anyone! " Past Mane yelled out.
"Princess! " Present Mane yelled out, while still chasing his past self.
"VILLAIN! Help! Someone! Is this castle deserted?" Past Mane yelled out, while running away.
"Princess! " Present Mane yelled out, while chasing his past self. The other Mane 6 were confused.
"What... Was that?" Rainbow Dash said in confusion.
"I don't know Rainbow. But i think we should keep an eye on those two." Applejack suggested. The others nodded, and then began to chase after them.
