Alternate World Of Opposites
The CMC Enters....Another World???
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe three fillies shared shocked looks, and looked back at Twilight. "U-um.....Twilight? Are you okay?" Applebloom asked in her concerned look. "Okay? What do you mean? My life's never been better! Woohoo!" Twilight danced in excitement on the table, causing to make more of a mess than there already is. "And I told you......to call me T!"
The Cutie Mark Crusaders looked at each other again. This was not like Twilight at all. She would never leave her castle in a mess. And she never asked them to call her such a nickname as T. "Now, what brings you here to T's castle?" Twilight said, laying herself down in a folding beach chair while drinking punch. "Um.....we're not exactly sure......we need to go now though. Th-thanks!" Scootaloo said, pulling her two friends and rushed towards the exit.
"That was.....weird. What happened to her?" Sweetie Belle said, looking back at the castle. The trio thought for a moment, and Applebloom finally thought of something. "I know! If Twilight doesn't look like she's can help us, I'm sure Zecora would!" she said, already running to the Everfree Forest. "W-wait for us!" Sweetie and Scootaloo said in sync as they quickly followed Applebloom.
As they arrived at where Zecora's house is, they stopped to catch their breath. Scootaloo went ahead and knocked on her door, until she noticed there were no pots and potions around at all. "Um...Zecora!" She nervously yelled as she knocked on the door. Zecora opened the door, but the CMC were shocked. Again.
Zecora's mane looked untidy, just like Twilight's. And instead of ancient and golden earings, bracelets, and neck rings, she wore sparkly silver earings, a lot more colorful bracelets, and had a normal necklace with a ruby on it. She also wore a greyish blackish whitish kind of party dress. "What brings you here to my party hut? This is one party I cannot shut!" Zecora rhymed, as always.
"What do you mean, party hut?" Sweetie asked, confused and surprised. Zecora returned the confused face at them "Are you alright, Sweetie Belle? Did you forget that I party here, and don't have time for show-an-tell?" Applebloom and Sweetie were even more confused and scared, thinking what happened to their Ponyville friends. Scootaloo, however, didn't get a thing. "Say what now?"
"B-b-but, Zecora! I thought you liked to make potions and brew and all that stuff?" Applebloom said, completely not hearing what Scootaloo just said. Zecora looked even more confused and calmed herself. "Is this a trick? For I've never thought of doing such magic." Scootaloo understood now, and looked very worried. "Wha-wai-huh-now-WHAT!?!" She said, trying to peek into Zecora's house. There were no pots, potions, brew, masks, or anything that she had before. It was crazily decorated in all sorts of banners, balloons, party food, and party clothes. She shook her head and said, "We......we've got to go now. Sorry we wasted your time." she said, quickly pulling the other two along with them as she exited the forest.
"Can you not pull us by our tails like that ever again?" Sweetie Belle said, brushing her tail. "I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it. First Twilight, now Zecora?" "Actually, it's T." Applebloom rolled her eyes and chuckled. Scootaloo rollde her eyes too, knowing it was kind of fishy. "Maybe we did go to a different world." She looked up into the sky, wondering what could've happened to the rest of their friends. "You know what? Let's go check up on everypony. Then we'll decide if they're trying to teach us a lesson for running away, or we really did go into a different dimension." The three nodded and clapped their hooves togther. They each ran to different places.
"Rainbow Dash!? Rainbow Daaaaaaash!?" Scootaloo called out under Rainbow's cloudy and large house. "Huh, maybe she's practicing for a Wonderbolt's show or something. Maybe I was just overreacting, how could we possibly enter a different world?" She said, starting to walk away. "Stop right there!" A raspy voice called from the cloud. Scootaloo turned around to see, but it suddenly got so bright. She could, however, see a figure in the middle of the source of the light.
The figure dashed down, towards Scootaloo. The light slowly became dimmer, and faded away. The figure stood in front of Scootaloo, surprising her. "What're you doing here, Scootaloo?" The pegasus asked. "Um....you know my name?" she replied, not knowing who it was. "What do you mean? I've always known you and you've always known me." It said, pointing at Scootaloo whenever it mentioned her. Looking at her, she noticed who it was and made a huge gasp.
"Rainbow Dash???" She said, tilting her head. She looked nothing like RD. Her mane was so tidy, it kind of looked identical to Twilight's hairstyle back in their world. "Are you okay? You're acting like we've never met." Scootaloo shook her head, now accepting the fact that they are in another world. "Oh, I'm fine! Just wanted to know what you were doing!" Rainbow raised an eyebrow at er and flew up to her home. "You're never really interested in trying to find out what I'm doing. Are you an impostor, perhaps?"
Scootaloo's mouth fell open. Rainbow never talks all smarty-like. "N-no! I'm not an imposter, same old Scootaloo!" She gave off a nervous laugh. "I just.....wanted to learn how to fly from you and all that!" Rainbow listened carefully and finally stepped on the cloudy pathway to her house. She gave Scootaloo a very strict eye and said, "I already taught the real Scootaloo how to fly."
Scootaloo's mouth fell wide open again. But a lot wider this time. The Scootaloo in this world already knew how to fly!? "U-um.....I meant flying tricks!" Scootaloo said, trying to sound convincing. Sighing, she said, "Okay, okay. I really am Scootaloo. Just not the Scootaloo you know in this world." Rainbow's eyebrow raised. She looked like she was getting interested. "Fine, fine. Come on up." Scootaloo beamed and tried to fly up, but she couldn't. Rainbow sighed and flew down to let her hop on her back. "Thanks."
Sweetie Belle searched for the Carousel Boutiqe. She really wanted to know where her sister Rarity was. When Sweetie finally arrived at where it should be, she found Sweet Apple Acres instead. "Huh? Sweet Apple Acres isn't supposed to be here. I'll go inside and check anyway." She trotted to the front door and knocked on it. "Hello? Anypony home???"
After a moment, the door opened. "Why, if it isn't my little sister Sweetie Belle! Come in, sugarcube!" Rarity said in a farm-like accent. Sweetie looked at her in confusion. She went in and head to the kitchen. She sat down at the table and examined the plate in front of her. "Today I made apple soup for you!" Rarity smiled at her and continued baking apple pies. "U-um.....Rarity? Why are we in Sweet Apple Acres? And what did you do to your hair? It looks so messy." Sweetie finally asked. Rarity turned around an raised her eyebrow. "What do ya mean? We've always lived here because ma and pa lived here. And my mane looks like how it's always looked like!"
Sweetie thought about what she said and what's going on while eating her soup. It's true. They did go to a different world. Maybe in this world, everypony had an opposite personality. "So......am I gonna do chores?" Sweetie asked after she gulped down the last of her apple soup. Rarity paused for a minute and turned her head over to Sweetie. "Are you alright, Sweetie Belle? Are you sick or somethin'? It's like you don't remember anythin' at all. Of course you do yer chores! You've always done your chores even without askin' me."
"Oh, well, I'm fine. Just making sure today." Sweetie trotted outside to her room to check if she had a checklist for chores.
Applebloom trotted towards the place where Sweet Apple Acres should be. But instead, she found the Carousel Boutique. She tilted her head. "Why is the boutique here?" She said as she looked around to see if she was in the wrong place. But she wasn't, her surroundings were the same. She trotted in and opened the door and heard the bell ring.
Applejack came rushing down and saw Applebloom. "Why, welcome back Applebloom!" She said in an accent like her Aunt Orange's. "Come on in!" Applebloom stepped inside and looked around. The place looked exactly like the Carousel Boutique, but Rarity's blue diamond signature changed into red rubies shaped into apples, just like Applejack's cutie mark. Applebloom followed Applejack into her bedroom, which was supposed to be Rarity's.
Applebloom took a look at Applejack. She looked very different. Her hair was curled and kept tidy. She looked like she hasn't planted a tree or bucked any apples. "Just like Twilight and Zecora....." Applebloom thought out loud. "What was that, darling?" AJ said as she sewed two pieces of fabric together. "Well, why are we living here? In the Carousel Boutique? Where's Big Mac and Granny Smith? Why's your hair so clean?" Applebloom blurted out.
Applejack looked at her sister worriedly. "We've always lived here. Big Mac's out buying fabric and Granny Smith is asleep." She said. "And my mane's always been clean! It'd be a disaster if it looks messy. Why, was it dirty before?" Applebloom slowly backed away. "Um, no! It looked great yesterday! I'm just gonna.....um.....go to my room!" She rushed to Sweetie Belle's-actually, her room, and shut the door.
"It's true.....we're in a different dimension! What am I gonna do!?" Applebloom wiped her sweat off and trotted towards the window. The town looked the same. But looking closely, everypony was acting different. She climbed out the window, forgetting she could'be used the front door, climbed onto the tree and jumped down. "I'm gonna go check Sugarcube Corner." She said as she started running.
"So let me get this straight....you and your friends were in T's castle and accidentally entered a portal?" Rainbow Dash said, recapping Scootaloo's story. "Yup!" Scootaloo beamed. Rainbow sighed and thought about it for a moment. This was not a story you hear everyday. "But I don't remember seeing a portal or a magical mirror in T's library. You must be mistaken." Rainbow said, slamming the book she was holding and put it in a very large bookshelf.
"I'm not lying!" Scootaloo yelled. "It's all true! Back in my world, you're all carefree and cool! I mean, you are cool, but I meant.....you made sonic rainbooms, you were the fastest pony in Equestria, you were even a Wonderbolt!" Rainbow's eyes widened. She never thought that an other dimension Rainbow Dash would be the exact opposite of her. "Alright, fine. We'll go over there right now and then I'll believe you." She said. "YES!!" Scootaloo jumped around the room.
The two of them finally arrived at the front of Twili.................T's castle. Rainbow Dash knocked on the door and waited for Twilight to come. The door finally opened. "Hey there, RD! What brings you down with little ol' Scootafling?" Twilight asked. Rainbow explained everything to Twilight after they went in. "Hold on, rewind. My brain didn't get nothing from your story." Twilight took a sip from her apple cider. Rainbow sighed and said very slowly, "Scootaloo said that she and her friends accidentally went inside a large magical mirror in your library. It made them teleport into our world."
Twilight looked at Scootaoo, then at Rainbow. "I've never had a big mirror thingy in my library. At least, I don't remember that I do." Rainbow glared at Scootaloo, who was nervously laughing. "Well, I'll show you!" she said, running to the library. Rainbow and Twilight followed her.
"Here we are!" Scootaloo shouted proudly as she presented the mirror to them. Twilight had a shocked face. "I don't remember this thingamajig!" Rainbow had a surprised face. She stepped forward and examined the mirror. "I think.....I think that this appeared because you entered through here in your world!" Rainbow turned her head towards Scootaloo. There was a small silence.
"Say what?" Twilight said, not understanding anything. Just then, A yellow pegasus wearing a baseball cap dashed in. "Come on, T! The stereo is all set up and we're ready for ghost stories! What's taking you so long?" She pouted. "Sorry, Flutters, These two came and showed me this weird mirror I've never seen in my whole entire life." Twilight said, walking towards the so called 'Flutters'
"Wait, Fluttershy?" Scootaloo said with a very amazed yet surprised look. "Is that you? You look so different!" "Well, I don't know how Fluttershy acts or looks like in your world, but this is how she looks in our world." Rainbow said, pointing at Fluttershy. "Woah, woah, woah, woah, WOAH!!! Other world? Cool! How am I like in your world?" Fluttershy said, flying towards Scootaloo. "Well, first off, you don't wear that cap." Scootaloo replied, pointing at her white baseball cap. "And, you're very shy and you love animals. You're very kind and caring and you're always there for your friends!"
Fluttershy stuck out her tongue in disgust. "Blech, that sounds nothin' like me!" She said. "Also, I told you, and you!" Fluttershy pointed at both Scootaloo and Rainbow Dash. "Call me Flutters!" Twilight looked at the clock, even though she didn't read it at all. "Come on, Flutters. I don't want to waste another minute! I wanna tell my legend of The Headless Horse!" Twilight said, stomping her hoof. "Aw, you've told that story to me, Spike, and Rares already!" Fluttershy pouted again. "Fine, I'll tell a new story! The Tale of Slenderpony!" Twilight yelled.
"Wait, Rares?" Scootaloo tilted her head. "They mean Rarity. I think she's joining them today. Oh yeah, and Spike too." Rainbow explained. Fluttershy looked at Twilight and they nodded at each other. "Well, since we wasted our precious time just to see that...." Fluttershy said, pointing at the mirror. "You two have to join us!" Twilight shouted, pulling both of them. "Great. Thanks a lot, Scootaloo." Rainbow facehoofed.
"Phew! That's the last of them!" Sweetie Belle sighed, wiping her tears off. She left the chicken coop to wash her hooves and then she went to town. "Rarity said she was going to T's party to go see Spike.....does that mean she went to Twilight's castle?" She said, trotting to the castle.
When she finally arrived, she knocked on the door. "Hello!? Rarity? Spike?? Twilight??? Is anypony here!?" Sweetie shouted. A tall purple and green dragon came and opened the door. Rarity was behind it, but she looked mesmerized. "Yes, Sweetie Belle?" It said. It kind of sounded like....no, Spike was a baby dragon. Plus, this dragon's voice was a lot deeper. "Um, I wanna join the party." Sweetie blurted out. As soon as she found out what she said, she shrugged it off. There was nothing else to do.
"Well, okay." It said, clearing the way. "Oh, Spikey Wikey, you're so dreamy!" Rarity said, giggling. The dragon turned his head to look at Rarity. "Oh, I know, I know....." she said, frowning a little. "Remember what I told you, Rares." Spike said, leading Sweetie to the throne room where the party took place. "You don't want to be involved with a dragon like me. A dragon like me...." he stopped and flipped his spikes that looked like bangs. ".....with great spikes." This caused Rarity to sigh even more. Sweetie Belle giggled quietly.
"We're back." Spike said, opening the door. "About time!" Fluttershy pouted. "Come on, I'm gonna tell my ghost story now!" Twilight said.
"What're you doing here?" Sweetie Belle asked Scootaloo.
"What're you doing here?" Scootaloo asked Sweetie Belle.
"What's she doing her?" Rarity asked Twilight, pointing at Rainbow Dash.
"What am I still doing here!?!" Rainbow yelled furiously.
"Calm down, ponies! Chill!" Twilight shouted out even louder than Rainbow. "Can we just start, please!?!" Everypony sat on their seats and Sweetie and Scootaloo sat on two cushions Spike gave them. "Alright, me first!" Fluttershy said. "It's called, The Legend of The Everfree!" Fluttershy began to tell the story in a spooky voice, causing Sweetie and Scootaloo to get a little scared. Rainbow just listened with a straight and bored face. Twilight smiled, enjoying the story. Rarity got a little scared, but when she did, she'd just look at Spike and smile. Spike listened with a cool and straight face.
The night went on, and each and every pony told different spooky ghost stories.
"Pinkie Pie!?" Applebloom called out. "Are you here!?" The Sugarcube Corner was crowded with all kinds of ponies. Maybe there was a sale. Applebloom ringed the bell on the counter and waited for somepony to come. Seconds later, Pinkie came out of the kitchen. She didn't look like Pinkie though, her hair was very straight and her face looks bored. She's not smiling at all. "Can I help you?" Pinkie asked with a low pitch. "Um, can I have a cupcake? Any kind will be fine." Applebloom said. Pinkie grabbed a cupcake out of a display case and put it on the counter. "That'd be 5 bits." She said. Applebloom put 5 bits on the counter and started eating.
"Hey, Pinkie? What's wrong? Did something happen?" Applebloom asked worriedly. "Nothing happened. Now scram, I'm busy." Pinkie turned around and head to the kitchen. Applebloom took another bit and wondered, "So is that Pinkie in this world? A gloomy unfriendly pink pony?" "I heard that." Pinkie said, poking her head out of the kitchen doors. She went back inside and baked what it smelled like cookies. "Um, sorry." Applebloom apologized.
She entered in the kitchen without permission to see what was going on. The kitchen looked a little messy and there were a lot more sweets and treats in store than in the other world. Pinkie set a cookie tray on a table and noticed Applebloom. "Hey, I told you to leave!" Pinkie angrily screamed. "I'm sorry, I'm from another world! I wanted to see how it looks here." She hastily said. Pinkie turned around and mumbled, "As if."
"Sheesh." Applebloom said, walking out of the kitchen. "I guess I should go find the others." She left Sugarcube corner and began her search for her friends.
