It’s not even raining!”, Ethan exclaims. “Maybe a fuse in the electrical wiring exploded?”, I suggest. “Mmm... I suppose we could take a look at it. I mean, it is supposed to be our day off from the ZPD, and we don’t really have anything to do...”, Ethan muses. We spend an hour trying to determine if the fuse box did malfunction, but to no avail. I sit down on the couch and start watching MLP:FiM. “Ooh, it’s the first two episodes of Season 5!”, Ethan excitedly says. “Dude, you know that they’ve already come out with Season 6, right?”, I snort. “Oh yeah...”, he responds. Judy calls me on her phone. “Hey, Judy. What’s going on?”, I casually ask her. “We’ve got a new animal here, one that neither Nick or me have seen before. Could you and Ethan come down to the station and help us out? I mean, I know it’s your day off and all...”, Judy tells me, before trailing off. “YES! FINALLY! I HAVE SOMETHING TO DO!!!”, I holler. I hang up. “Ethan! Come on! We gotta go!”, I order. “Ugh... fine... the episode just ended.”, Ethan grunts. 5 minutes later... We run through the doors of the ZPD. “Good, you’re here. The... thing... just regained consciousness. I want you two to interview it.”, Nick instructs. “Will do, sir.”, I salute him. Nick laughs. We head down to the cell, and go in. As soon as I see the prisoner, I instinctively draw my sword. “What the hell?”, I yelp in shock. “You’re Starlight Glimmer!?”, Ethan shouts. “Wait... how do you know my name?”, the unicorn asks curiously. “You’re evil!!!! You must want to take over Zootopia!”, Ben exclaims. “No, no, NO! That’s not it at all!”, Starlight pleads. “Well then, care to explain what you’re doing here and how you’re not evil?”, Ethan demands. “This is embarrassing... Yes, I did take away cutie marks. Yes, I traveled through time to try and get revenge on Twilight and her friends. But Twilight forgave me, and I became her pupil. Now, I’m learning so much about magic and friendship.”, Starlight relents. “You still haven’t told us why you’re here.”, Ethan reminds her. “I don’t know! I tried out a spell that Twilight gave me, and somehow ended up here!”, she vents, expasarated. “Then there’s one last thing left for you to do. If I help you get back to Equestria, then you have to do two things for me, which are non-negotiable.”, I tell Starlight. “If it’s anything to do with evil, then no.”, Starlight shoots at me. I pull my head back and laugh. “First, me, Ethan, Nick, and Judy get to go back to Equestria with you. Second... you will enchant this sword. Pinkie Promise.”, I calmly respond. She looks at me with a shocked expression. “How do you know about a Pinkie Promise--”, Starlight begins to say. I cut her off. “PINKIE PROMISE.”, I order. She sighs. “Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.”, she recites. Her horn started glowing light blue, and then she fires a magic laser at me. I raise my sword to block it. “Hey! Why are you attacking me?”, I protest. “That was to enchant your sword!!”, she explains. “Oh... then never mind.”, I sheepishly respond. “Come on, we’ll introduce you to Judy and Nick.”, Ethan promises. Chapter 4- Once a Skeptic, Now a Believer (Nick’s POV)While we’re driving down to the ruins that the old bunny described, I decide to quiz Starlight about her home. “So, what’s it like in Equestria?”, I ask the unicorn. She brightens up. “Well, it’s very different from this world. For one, it’s mostly inhabited by ponies.”, she tells me. “But you’re a unicorn.”, I skeptically reply, pointing at her horn. “Well, there’s earth ponies, there’s the pegasi, ponies with wings, the unicorns, like me, and the alicorn princesses rule the kingdom. But those aren’t the only magical races-- there are also dragons, griffins, changelings...”, Starlight explains. “Oh, so there are princesses? Do they wear crowns and have tea parties?”, I mock. “Hey! It might seem strange to you, but it’s a really nice place!”, Starlight says, a hint of anger in her voice. “Nick, don’t pick a fight with a unicorn. That would not end out well for your dignity.”, Ben advises. “We’re here!”, Judy announces. “Finally! That felt like forever!”, I vent. I stretch out. But all I see is a bunch of rubble. “It’s just a bunch of rocks!!”, I angrily say. Starlight peers at a stone slab on top of an old staircase. “No, this is a stargate, all right. It’s got Star Swirl the Bearded’s symbol on it.”, Starlight tells us. “What now? Do we think ‘magical thoughts’ and start flying?”, I joke. “Exactly.”, Starlight sarcastically responds. “I don’t suppose you have a plan?”, Nick sighs, turning to Ben. “Actually, I do. We charge it with magical energy.”, Ben suggests. Starlight nods, as if she should have thought of this herself. Her horn begins glowing, and she fires a bolt of magic at the slab. Ben raises his sword up and hits the capstone with a beam of energy from his sword. The stargate turns into a hole, and sucks us all in. “Okay! Okay! I believe you!!”, I yell. Chapter 6- Who Visits Fluttershy’s Cottage at 3 AM? (Ben’s POV)I’m waked up when I hear someone knocking on the door. “EEEK!! A MONSTER!!!”, Fluttershy screams. Judy and Nick are cuddled up together, making me even grumpier. I trudge to the door, and open it. “Who is it?”, I grumble. “Hi! You’ve been invited to a party! I’m Pinkie Pie!!”, the pink pony says. “A party?”, I groggily ask, confused. She leans down, and I pick up an envelope from the basket she’s wearing on her head. “Yeah! A party! My Pinkie Sense has been going off for days, telling me that someone new’s coming, and I had the invitations ready for when you did arrive!”, she explains. She goes on and on. “Any idea what she’s saying?”, Ethan quizzically asks. “No.”, I grumpily tell him. Ethan pulls out a Taser. “Go back to sleep BEFORE I SHOCK YOU TO SLEEP!!!”, he yells. “Okey-dokey-lokey!!”, she responds, then runs off. The next morning... Once again, I wake up to a knock on the door. I yawn, stretch out, and open it. “I’ve got a package for Mr. Ben.”, a pegasus with weird eyes tells me. “That’s me! But... what’s wrong with your eyes?”, I ask. “Oh, it’s just something I was born with. My eyes don’t work right, so I have a tendency to mess things up. I’m Derpy, by the way.”, Derpy introduces herself. “I wonder what the package is?”, I muse. “I don’t know, but it was nice meeting you! See you next time there’s a letter for you!”, Derpy says, before flying off. “We just got a letter! We just got a letter! We just got a letter! I wonder who it’s from!”, I chant. I cut the tape with my sword and open the package. It’s my Duel Disk from Zootopia!! The package says it’s from Discorded Games Incorporated. I ask Fluttershy about it at breakfast. “Yeah, Discord helped create that company.”, Fluttershy tells me. I slide it on, not that I’m going to get to use it much. Derpy comes back. “I’ve got a package for Judy Hopps from Discorded Games.”, she announces. Judy opens it. It’s a pink Duel Disk with a deck of cards! “Aww, these ‘Fluffal’ and ‘Frightfur’ monsters are adorable!”, she comments. “We’ve both got a Duel Disk and a deck of cards, Judy. You know what that means, right?”, I grin. Judy shakes her head. “Judy, I challenge you to a Duel!!”, I announce. “Wait, NOW? She doesn’t even know how to play!”, Ethan cries out. “I can teach her!”, I tell him. “Ben, I’ve seen you play against Ethan enough times, I’m sure that I can figure it out.”, Judy responds. We go outside. “It’s time to Duel, Ben!”, she challenges. Chapter 7- Judy’s First Duel (Ben’s POV)Duel Start! Judy: 4000 LP Ben: 4000 LP “My turn! Draw!”, Judy says. “I play Polymerization and fuse Edge Imp Sabres with the Fluffal Dog and Fusion Summon the Frightfur Wolf in Attack Mode!!”, she says. What the hell? It’s her first time playing the game, and she just Fusion Summoned like a pro! Frightfur Wolf LV6 DARK Beast/Fusion/Effect 2000 ATK/1500 DEF “I play one card facedown and end my turn!!”, Judy says. “It’s hard to believe that it’s your first time playing. You must have been paying pretty close attention!”, I compliment Judy. “Thanks!”, Judy responds. “But just because it’s your first time playing doesn’t mean I’m going to go easy on you!”, I tell her. “My turn! I draw!!”, I say. “I play the Magic card Dragon Mastery, then summon the Dragunity Militum, and equip it with the Dragunity Darkspear! Now, using Militum’s effect, I Special Summon Darkspear from the Spell Zone!”, I announce. “But Ben, neither of your monsters have the strength to defeat my Fusion card!”, Judy points out. “I’m fully aware of that, my love! That’s why I’m tuning Darkspear with Militum to Synchro Summon Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon!!”, I reply. Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon FIRE Dragon/Synchro/Effect LV7 2500 ATK/2000 DEF “Now, Odd-Eyes attacks Frightfur Wolf!”, I roar. “I activate my facedown card! De-Fusion!!”, Judy cooly defends. “Nani?”, I gasp. “Now, all of the monsters that I used to fuse it are back on the field!”, Judy yells. “Fine! I play two cards facedown and end my turn!”, I call. “My turn! Draw! I summon Fluffal Owl, letting me add Polymerization to my hand! I fuse Fluffal Dog with Edge Imp Sabres to Fusion Summon Frightfur Wolf once again! Next, I pay 500 LP to fuse Fluffal Owl with Frightfur Wolf and Fluffal Leo! Come forth, Frightfur Sabre-Tooth!”, Judy exclaims. Judy: 4000 -> 3500 LP Frightfur Sabre-Tooth LV8 DARK Beast/Fusion/Effect 2400 ATK/2000 DEF “It gains 400 ATK as a Frightfur, and because I used 3 monsters for the Fusion Summon, it can’t be destroyed by battle or card effects! I attack!”, Judy replies. Frightfur Sabre-Tooth 2400 -> 2800 ATK “Scrap-Iron Scarecrow negates the attack, and gets Set again!”, I counter. “My turn! I draw! I summon Dragunity Aklyss and Special Summon Dragunity Arma Leyvaten! Dragunity Arma Leyvaten WIND Dragon/Effect 2600 ATK/1200 DEF “Next, I play the Legendary Dragon Hermos, fusing him with Aklyss to summon Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword, equipping it to Leyvaten! It gains 1000 ATK, and another 500 ATK for every Dragon-type on the field and in the Graveyard!”, I explain. I have 3 Dragon-types on the field, and 2 Dragon-types in the Graveyard... “That means... it’s got 7100 ATK!!”, Judy says, shocked. “Now, I attack Frightfur Sabre-Tooth!”, I declare. “But Sabre-Tooth can’t be destroyed by battle!”, Judy protests. “That doesn’t mean you don’t take Battle Damage!”, I smugly respond. Judy gasps in horror. Judy: 3500 -> 0 LP Winner- Ben Judy looks at me in shock and amazement. I go and hug her. “You did great, Judy. You were much better than I expected you to be!”, I tell her. She blushes. An arrow whistles over Judy’s ears. “There’s a note on it!”, Nick exclaims. “Ethan, come to Sweet Apple Acres at 12 PM today for a Duel. If you don’t accept this challenge, you’re a loser.”, the note says. “Oooh, whoever did this is gonna PAY!!”, Ethan roars. “Ethan, are you sure? I mean, your Dueling skills are, well, not that great.”, I uneasily respond. “Stay out of this, Ben!”, Ethan yells. He grabs his Redstone Duel Disk and runs off. Chapter 8- Ethan VS Sweetie Belle (Ethan’s POV)I run over to Sweet Apple Acres. “Who challenged me?!”, I demand. “I did!”, Sweetie Belle cries out. “Let’s get this started.”, I growl. “If you lose, you have to buy me ice cream!”, Sweetie Belle declares. “Deal. But if I win, you have to call me ‘Sensei’ for a week, and let me and Ben be in the CMC!”, I reply. “Deal.”, she responds. Duel Start! Sweetie Belle- 4000 LP Ethan- 4000 LP “My turn! I play Card Destruction, sending our hands to the Graveyard and we each draw the same amount of cards we discarded!”, I cry out. “Next, I summon Pixel HERO Red Hammer, play one card facedown, and end my turn!”, I say. Pixel HERO Red Hammer LV4 FIRE Warrior/Base 1600 ATK/1400 DEF “My turn! I draw! I play Fancy Hero Lucie and attack! It gains 800 ATK when attacking!”, Sweetie Belle yells. “Pixel HERO Red Hammer is destroyed!”, Sweetie Belle says in triumph. Ethan: 4000 -> 3600 LP “I activate my Trap Card, Pixel Signal! I can Special Summon one LV4 or lower Pixel Hero from my deck! I summon... the Pixel Hero Blue Bomber!”, I tell her. Pixel HERO Blue Bomber LV4 LIGHT Machine/Base 1400 ATK/1200 DEF “Fine! I end my turn!”, Sweetie Belle says. “My turn! Draw! And I now I Composition Summon Pixel HERO Blue Bomber X!”, I declare. “I’ve never heard of a Composition Monster before!”, Sweetie Belle protests. Pixel HERO Blue Bomber X Quality 4 LIGHT Machine/Composition/Effect 1000 ATK/1000 DEF “I deactivate the Composition Material Pixel HERO Chaos Needle, giving it’s powers to Blue Bomber X! It attacks Lucie!”, I announce. Pixel HERO Blue Bomber X 1000 -> 3100 ATK Sweetie Belle: 4000 -> 2100 LP “I play one card facedown and end my turn!”, I declare. Blue Bomber X’s stats go back to normal. “I play Fancy Hero Mimi and attack Blue Bomber X!”, Sweetie Belle responds. “I deactivate the Composition Material Pixel HERO Angel Wing!”, I cry out. Blue Bomber X’s ATK becomes 2400. Sweetie Belle: 2100 -> 1400 LP “Fine! I play Lightning Vortex and destroy your monster!”, she angrily says. “I ressurect Angel Wing and attack you directly!”, I roar. Sweetie Belle- 1400 -> 0 LP Winner: Ethan “Good game.”, I compliment Sweetie Belle. I look at my watch. “Crap! I forgot that I’m supposed to be at the party that Pinkie Pie’s hosting for me, Ben, Judy, and Nick! Thanks for the duel, Sweetie Belle, but I’ve gotta go!”, I tell the unicorn CMC, before running off to Sugarcube Corner. Chapter 9- Pinkie Pie’s Party! A Favor! (Ethan’s POV)“Are you four ready to party?”, Pinkie asks us. “Oh yeah!”, Judy cheers. She starts playing music. Judy and Ben dance, and I’m inexplicably attracted to Pinkie Pie. “I know this is weird, but I’ve got feelings for you.”, I tell Pinkie. “WHAT? I CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER THIS MUSIC!!”, she shouts. “I THINK I HAVE A CRUSH ON YOU FOR SOME REASON!!”, I shout back. Suddenly, maniac laughter is heard. A human with a dragon mask steps out into our view. “Who are you!?”, I ask, pointing my taser at him. “My name... is JAKOB!”, the masked person says. “I’m new to Ponyville, and I decided to come to this party. I’m your friend, albeit a weird one. You have feelings for this pink pony? Don’t deny it, I heard it in your conversation.”, Jakob points out. “Rrrgh... yes. I don’t know why I feel this way.”, I exhale. “One word: hormones.”, Jakob laughs. “So, I heard that there’s gonna be a new pizza place based off of the game Five Nights at Freddy’s.”, Pinkie randomly comments. This brings me back to reality. “No!”, I gasp. “Yes, silly!”, Pinkie counters. “Who’s opening it?”, I ask casually, trying to keep my voice clear of emotion. “Discorded Games is opening it! Who would have guessed that a gaming company would open a pizza place?”, Pinkie muses. “Hey, you do have bits, right?”, Nick asks me. “Uh, yeah... wait... why would you be asking that... WHAT DID YOU DO, NICHOLAS WILDE?”, I demand. Nick’s eyes widen. “I may have ordered a ton of smoothies... and placed it on your tab.”, he sputters. “How much?”, I ask. “The bill’s... two hundred bits.”, Nick sheepishly whispers. “That’s all the bits that I have! How am I supposed to get money now??”, I complain. Starlight tells me to get to Twilight’s castle. END OF STORY Chapter 1- Prologue (Starlight Glimmer’s POV)“Morning, Starlight!”, Spike greets me. “Morning, Spike!”, I tell him. I then go into the library. “So, Twilight, what are we going to do today?”, I ask the Princess of Friendship. “I recently found a spell in the Star Swirl the Bearded section of the Canterlot Archives, and I want you to try it out!”, Twilight tells me. “What does it do?”, I question. “It describes a world where predator and prey coexist in harmony! It could be very interesting, and it would be something that’s never been done before in recorded history”, Twilight enthusiastically explains. “Are you sure about this, Twilight?”, I ask her. “Oh, come on, Starlight! You mastered time travel, for Celestia’s sake! I’m certain that as my pupil, you can do this!”, Twilight encourages. “Okay... here goes nothing!”, I uneasily say, before casting the spell. The scroll begins to glow with a pink light, and a portal opens up. I can feel the magical intensity of the portal! “Go on, Starlight!”, Twilight tells me. Hesitantly, I start to walk into the portal, but a bookshelf falls and hits me in the head, knocking me out. Chapter 3- A Visit to Ben’s Grandpa (Judy’s POV)Ben and Ethan come out of the cell with the creature we found this morning. “Ben and Ethan, what are you doing?”, I ask in slight alarm. Did the creature do something to them? “Calm down, Judy. This is Starlight Glimmer. She’s from Equestria, and we’re going to help her get back home.”, Ben casually explains. “Oh... okay then.”, I respond. “Wait. The scroll that I used to get here... I think it was a one-use only spell.”, Starlight realizes. “Great. Well, I’m sure that you can use your magic unicorn powers to make a new one, so I’m done.”, Nick sarcastically says before turning to leave. “Nick! This is serious!!”, I protest. “Pfft. Does she even have magic?”, he skeptically replies. “Yeah, she does. Look at my sword.”, Ben counters, and shows it. It has a new energy to it. “Well, if there was a scroll for you to get here, there should be a scroll to get you home.”, Ethan muses. “Maybe it’s in the library?”, Starlight asks. Ben shakes his head. “I don’t think that the Zootopia library would have magic spells. We need to go and see my grandpa.”, Ben tells us. We get on the train and head to Bunnyburrow. “If you’re a human, then why does your old man live in Bunnyburrow?”, Nick asks. Ben sighs. “Okay, he’s not my biological grandfather. Truth is, I don’t know any of my actual family, but I call him my grandpa because he took care of me and Ethan until the day we went to the Zootopia Police Academy. He’s the wisest animal that I know. If anyone can help us with finding a way to get Starlight home, it’s him.”, Ben opens up. “...I’m sorry.”, Nick responds. “No, Nick. It’s okay.”, Ben comforts him. “Guys, this is our stop.”, Ethan reminds us. We get off the train, and walk to Ben’s grandfather’s house. Ben explains the situation to his grandfather. The old bunny strokes his beard, deep in thought. “A long time ago, our world interacted more with the pony world. A few miles to the east, you’ll find the ruins of the portal that connected the two worlds.”, Ben’s grandpa tells us. “Thank you, sir.”, Starlight praises the elderly bunny. He acknowledges her with a nod. I borrow my mom and dad’s truck, and we drive off to those ruins. Chapter 5- Back to Equestria (Starlight’s POV)We emerge from the mirror in Twilight’s castle. “Starlight!!!”, my teacher cries out, and hugs me. “Well... we’re stuck in a world we don’t belong in. Whoop-de-freaking-do.”, Nick sarcastically says. “Twilight, these are my friends who helped me get back here. This is Ben, Ethan, Judy, and Nick.”, I introduce the princess to my friends. Ben kneels. “It is an honor, Princess Twilight.”, he bows. “Thank you. I really appreciate you bringing Starlight back to Equestria. I don’t know what I’d do without my number one student!”, Twilight thanks Ben. “It wasn’t just me. I couldn’t have done it without my friends.”, Ben blushes. “Wait... if we can’t get back home, then where are we staying?”, Judy asks. I shrug. “Can’t you use your unicorn magic to build us a house?”, Nick asks. Twilight shakes her head. “I’m sure that Fluttershy has a few extra rooms in her cottage that you could stay in while we figure the housing situation out. Starlight, why don’t you show them around Ponyville and then take them to Fluttershy’s?”, Twilight asks me. “Sure!”, I gladly say. I show them around Ponyville, and Ben and Ethan point out several locations, to my suprise, such as Sugarcube Corner and Sweet Apple Acres. Finally, I lead them through the forest to Fluttershy’s. “...and Twilight said you would let us stay?”, Ben tells Fluttershy. Fluttershy looks around, and gasps. “OH MY GOSH! A BUNNY!!”, she squeals. She then goes up and hugs Judy. “Hey!!”, Judy protests. “You can talk? That makes you even cuter!!”, Fluttershy gushes. “NO ONE CALLS JUDY CUTE EXCEPT ME!!”, Ben hisses. “Ooops! Sorry.”, she apologizes. It’s getting late. “I should get back to the castle.”, I tell my friends.
Chapter 2- Misidentified as Evil (Ben’s POV)I hear a giant crash of lightning. “What the hell? It’s not even raining!”, Ethan exclaims. “Maybe a fuse in the electrical wiring exploded?”, I suggest. “Mmm... I suppose we could take a look at it. I mean, it is supposed to be our day off from the ZPD, and we don’t really have anything to do...”, Ethan muses. We spend an hour trying to determine if the fuse box did malfunction, but to no avail. I sit down on the couch and start watching MLP:FiM. “Ooh, it’s the first two episodes of Season 5!”, Ethan excitedly says. “Dude, you know that they’ve already come out with Season 6, right?”, I snort. “Oh yeah...”, he responds. Judy calls me on her phone. “Hey, Judy. What’s going on?”, I casually ask her. “We’ve got a new animal here, one that neither Nick or me have seen before. Could you and Ethan come down to the station and help us out? I mean, I know it’s your day off and all...”, Judy tells me, before trailing off. “YES! FINALLY! I HAVE SOMETHING TO DO!!!”, I holler. I hang up. “Ethan! Come on! We gotta go!”, I order. “Ugh... fine... the episode just ended.”, Ethan grunts. 5 minutes later... We run through the doors of the ZPD. “Good, you’re here. The... thing... just regained consciousness. I want you two to interview it.”, Nick instructs. “Will do, sir.”, I salute him. Nick laughs. We head down to the cell, and go in. As soon as I see the prisoner, I instinctively draw my sword. “What the hell?”, I yelp in shock. “You’re Starlight Glimmer!?”, Ethan shouts. “Wait... how do you know my name?”, the unicorn asks curiously. “You’re evil!!!! You must want to take over Zootopia!”, Ben exclaims. “No, no, NO! That’s not it at all!”, Starlight pleads. “Well then, care to explain what you’re doing here and how you’re not evil?”, Ethan demands. “This is embarrassing... Yes, I did take away cutie marks. Yes, I traveled through time to try and get revenge on Twilight and her friends. But Twilight forgave me, and I became her pupil. Now, I’m learning so much about magic and friendship.”, Starlight relents. “You still haven’t told us why you’re here.”, Ethan reminds her. “I don’t know!

If I help you get back to Equestria, then you have to do two things for me, which are non-negotiable.”, I tell Starlight. “If it’s anything to do with evil, then no.”, Starlight shoots at me. I pull my head back and laugh. “First, me, Ethan, Nick, and Judy get to go back to Equestria with you. Second... you will enchant this sword. Pinkie Promise.”, I calmly respond. She looks at me with a shocked expression. “How do you know about a Pinkie Promise--”, Starlight begins to say. I cut her off. “PINKIE PROMISE.”, I order. She sighs. “Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.”, she recites. Her horn started glowing light blue, and then she fires a magic laser at me. I raise my sword to block it. “Hey! Why are you attacking me?”, I protest. “That was to enchant your sword!!”, she explains. “Oh... then never mind.”, I sheepishly respond. “Come on, we’ll introduce you to Judy and Nick.”, Ethan promises.
Chapter 4- Once a Skeptic, Now a Believer (Nick’s POV)While we’re driving down to the ruins that the old bunny described, I decide to quiz Starlight about her home. “So, what’s it like in Equestria?”, I ask the unicorn. She brightens up. “Well, it’s very different from this world. For one, it’s mostly inhabited by ponies.”, she tells me. “But you’re a unicorn.”, I skeptically reply, pointing at her horn. “Well, there’s earth ponies, there’s the pegasi, ponies with wings, the unicorns, like me, and the alicorn princesses rule the kingdom. But those aren’t the only magical races-- there are also dragons, griffins, changelings...”, Starlight explains. “Oh, so there are princesses? Do they wear crowns and have tea parties?”, I mock. “Hey! It might seem strange to you, but it’s a really nice place!”, Starlight says, a hint of anger in her voice. “Nick, don’t pick a fight with a unicorn. That would not end out well for your dignity.”, Ben advises. “We’re here!”, Judy announces. “Finally! That felt like forever!”, I vent. I stretch out. But all I see is a bunch of rubble. “It’s just a bunch of rocks!!”, I angrily say. Starlight peers at a stone slab on top of an old staircase. “No, this is a stargate, all right. It’s got Star Swirl the Bearded’s symbol on it.”, Starlight tells us. “What now? Do we think ‘magical thoughts’ and start flying?”, I joke. “Exactly.”, Starlight sarcastically responds. “I don’t suppose you have a plan?”, Nick sighs, turning to Ben. “Actually, I do. We charge it with magical energy.”, Ben suggests. Starlight nods, as if she should have thought of this herself. Her horn begins glowing, and she fires a bolt of magic at the slab. Ben raises his sword up and hits the capstone with a beam of energy from his sword. The stargate turns into a hole, and sucks us all in. “Okay! Okay! I believe you!!”, I yell.
Chapter 6- Who Visits Fluttershy’s Cottage at 3 AM? (Ben’s POV)I’m waked up when I hear someone knocking on the door. “EEEK!! A MONSTER!!!”, Fluttershy screams. Judy and Nick are cuddled up together, making me even grumpier. I trudge to the door, and open it. “Who is it?”, I grumble. “Hi! You’ve been invited to a party! I’m Pinkie Pie!!”, the pink pony says. “A party?”, I groggily ask, confused. She leans down, and I pick up an envelope from the basket she’s wearing on her head. “Yeah! A party! My Pinkie Sense has been going off for days, telling me that someone new’s coming, and I had the invitations ready for when you did arrive!”, she explains. She goes on and on. “Any idea what she’s saying?”, Ethan quizzically asks. “No.”, I grumpily tell him. Ethan pulls out a Taser. “Go back to sleep BEFORE I SHOCK YOU TO SLEEP!!!”, he yells. “Okey-dokey-lokey!!”, she responds, then runs off. The next morning... Once again, I wake up to a knock on the door. I yawn, stretch out, and open it. “I’ve got a package for Mr. Ben.”, a pegasus with weird eyes tells me. “That’s me! But... what’s wrong with your eyes?”, I ask. “Oh, it’s just something I was born with. My eyes don’t work right, so I have a tendency to mess things up. I’m Derpy, by the way.”, Derpy introduces herself. “I wonder what the package is?”, I muse. “I don’t know, but it was nice meeting you! See you next time there’s a letter for you!”, Derpy says, before flying off. “We just got a letter! We just got a letter! We just got a letter! I wonder who it’s from!”, I chant. I cut the tape with my sword and open the package. It’s my Duel Disk from Zootopia!! The package says it’s from Discorded Games Incorporated. I ask Fluttershy about it at breakfast. “Yeah, Discord helped create that company.”, Fluttershy tells me. I slide it on, not that I’m going to get to use it much. Derpy comes back. “I’ve got a package for Judy Hopps from Discorded Games.”, she announces. Judy opens it. It’s a pink Duel Disk with a deck of cards! “Aww, these ‘Fluffal’ and ‘Frightfur’ monsters are adorable!”, she comments. “We’ve both got a Duel Disk and a deck of cards, Judy. You know what that means, right?”, I grin. Judy shakes her head. “Judy, I challenge you to a Duel!!”, I announce. “Wait, NOW? She doesn’t even know how to play!”, Ethan cries out. “I can teach her!”, I tell him. “Ben, I’ve seen you play against Ethan enough times, I’m sure that I can figure it out.”, Judy responds. We go outside. “It’s time to Duel, Ben!”, she challenges.
Chapter 7- Judy’s First Duel (Ben’s POV)Duel Start! Judy: 4000 LP Ben: 4000 LP “My turn! Draw!”, Judy says. “I play Polymerization and fuse Edge Imp Sabres with the Fluffal Dog and Fusion Summon the Frightfur Wolf in Attack Mode!!”, she says. What the hell? It’s her first time playing the game, and she just Fusion Summoned like a pro! Frightfur Wolf LV6 DARK Beast/Fusion/Effect 2000 ATK/1500 DEF “I play one card facedown and end my turn!!”, Judy says. “It’s hard to believe that it’s your first time playing. You must have been paying pretty close attention!”, I compliment Judy. “Thanks!”, Judy responds. “But just because it’s your first time playing doesn’t mean I’m going to go easy on you!”, I tell her. “My turn! I draw!!”, I say. “I play the Magic card Dragon Mastery, then summon the Dragunity Militum, and equip it with the Dragunity Darkspear! Now, using Militum’s effect, I Special Summon Darkspear from the Spell Zone!”, I announce. “But Ben, neither of your monsters have the strength to defeat my Fusion card!”, Judy points out. “I’m fully aware of that, my love! That’s why I’m tuning Darkspear with Militum to Synchro Summon Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon!!”, I reply. Odd-Eyes Meteorburst Dragon FIRE Dragon/Synchro/Effect LV7 2500 ATK/2000 DEF “Now, Odd-Eyes attacks Frightfur Wolf!”, I roar. “I activate my facedown card! De-Fusion!!”, Judy cooly defends. “Nani?”, I gasp. “Now, all of the monsters that I used to fuse it are back on the field!”, Judy yells. “Fine! I play two cards facedown and end my turn!”, I call. “My turn! Draw! I summon Fluffal Owl, letting me add Polymerization to my hand! I fuse Fluffal Dog with Edge Imp Sabres to Fusion Summon Frightfur Wolf once again! Next, I pay 500 LP to fuse Fluffal Owl with Frightfur Wolf and Fluffal Leo! Come forth, Frightfur Sabre-Tooth!”, Judy exclaims. Judy: 4000 -> 3500 LP Frightfur Sabre-Tooth LV8 DARK Beast/Fusion/Effect 2400 ATK/2000 DEF “It gains 400 ATK as a Frightfur, and because I used 3 monsters for the Fusion Summon, it can’t be destroyed by battle or card effects! I attack!”, Judy replies. Frightfur Sabre-Tooth 2400 -> 2800 ATK “Scrap-Iron Scarecrow negates the attack, and gets Set again!”, I counter. “My turn! I draw! I summon Dragunity Aklyss and Special Summon Dragunity Arma Leyvaten! Dragunity Arma Leyvaten WIND Dragon/Effect 2600 ATK/1200 DEF “Next, I play the Legendary Dragon Hermos, fusing him with Aklyss to summon Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword, equipping it to Leyvaten! It gains 1000 ATK, and another 500 ATK for every Dragon-type on the field and in the Graveyard!”, I explain. I have 3 Dragon-types on the field, and 2 Dragon-types in the Graveyard... “That means... it’s got 7100 ATK!!”, Judy says, shocked. “Now, I attack Frightfur Sabre-Tooth!”, I declare. “But Sabre-Tooth can’t be destroyed by battle!”, Judy protests. “That doesn’t mean you don’t take Battle Damage!”, I smugly respond. Judy gasps in horror. Judy: 3500 -> 0 LP Winner- Ben Judy looks at me in shock and amazement. I go and hug her. “You did great, Judy. You were much better than I expected you to be!”, I tell her. She blushes. An arrow whistles over Judy’s ears. “There’s a note on it!”, Nick exclaims. “Ethan, come to Sweet Apple Acres at 12 PM today for a Duel. If you don’t accept this challenge, you’re a loser.”, the note says. “Oooh, whoever did this is gonna PAY!!”, Ethan roars. “Ethan, are you sure? I mean, your Dueling skills are, well, not that great.”, I uneasily respond. “Stay out of this, Ben!”, Ethan yells. He grabs his Redstone Duel Disk and runs off.
Chapter 8- Ethan VS Sweetie Belle (Ethan’s POV)I run over to Sweet Apple Acres. “Who challenged me?!”, I demand. “I did!”, Sweetie Belle cries out. “Let’s get this started.”, I growl. “If you lose, you have to buy me ice cream!”, Sweetie Belle declares. “Deal. But if I win, you have to call me ‘Sensei’ for a week, and let me and Ben be in the CMC!”, I reply. “Deal.”, she responds. Duel Start! Sweetie Belle- 4000 LP Ethan- 4000 LP “My turn! I play Card Destruction, sending our hands to the Graveyard and we each draw the same amount of cards we discarded!”, I cry out. “Next, I summon Pixel HERO Red Hammer, play one card facedown, and end my turn!”, I say. Pixel HERO Red Hammer LV4 FIRE Warrior/Base 1600 ATK/1400 DEF “My turn! I draw! I play Fancy Hero Lucie and attack! It gains 800 ATK when attacking!”, Sweetie Belle yells. “Pixel HERO Red Hammer is destroyed!”, Sweetie Belle says in triumph. Ethan: 4000 -> 3600 LP “I activate my Trap Card, Pixel Signal! I can Special Summon one LV4 or lower Pixel Hero from my deck! I summon... the Pixel Hero Blue Bomber!”, I tell her. Pixel HERO Blue Bomber LV4 LIGHT Machine/Base 1400 ATK/1200 DEF “Fine! I end my turn!”, Sweetie Belle says. “My turn! Draw! And I now I Composition Summon Pixel HERO Blue Bomber X!”, I declare. “I’ve never heard of a Composition Monster before!”, Sweetie Belle protests. Pixel HERO Blue Bomber X Quality 4 LIGHT Machine/Composition/Effect 1000 ATK/1000 DEF “I deactivate the Composition Material Pixel HERO Chaos Needle, giving it’s powers to Blue Bomber X! It attacks Lucie!”, I announce. Pixel HERO Blue Bomber X 1000 -> 3100 ATK Sweetie Belle: 4000 -> 2100 LP “I play one card facedown and end my turn!”, I declare. Blue Bomber X’s stats go back to normal. “I play Fancy Hero Mimi and attack Blue Bomber X!”, Sweetie Belle responds. “I deactivate the Composition Material Pixel HERO Angel Wing!”, I cry out. Blue Bomber X’s ATK becomes 2400. Sweetie Belle: 2100 -> 1400 LP “Fine! I play Lightning Vortex and destroy your monster!”, she angrily says. “I ressurect Angel Wing and attack you directly!”, I roar. Sweetie Belle- 1400 -> 0 LP Winner: Ethan “Good game.”, I compliment Sweetie Belle. I look at my watch. “Crap! I forgot that I’m supposed to be at the party that Pinkie Pie’s hosting for me, Ben, Judy, and Nick! Thanks for the duel, Sweetie Belle, but I’ve gotta go!”, I tell the unicorn CMC, before running off to Sugarcube Corner.
Chapter 9- Pinkie Pie’s Party! A Favor! (Ethan’s POV)“Are you four ready to party?”, Pinkie asks us. “Oh yeah!”, Judy cheers. She starts playing music. Judy and Ben dance, and I’m inexplicably attracted to Pinkie Pie. “I know this is weird, but I’ve got feelings for you.”, I tell Pinkie. “WHAT? I CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER THIS MUSIC!!”, she shouts. “I THINK I HAVE A CRUSH ON YOU FOR SOME REASON!!”, I shout back. Suddenly, maniac laughter is heard. A human with a dragon mask steps out into our view. “Who are you!?”, I ask, pointing my taser at him. “My name... is JAKOB!”, the masked person says. “I’m new to Ponyville, and I decided to come to this party. I’m your friend, albeit a weird one. You have feelings for this pink pony? Don’t deny it, I heard it in your conversation.”, Jakob points out. “Rrrgh... yes. I don’t know why I feel this way.”, I exhale. “One word: hormones.”, Jakob laughs. “So, I heard that there’s gonna be a new pizza place based off of the game Five Nights at Freddy’s.”, Pinkie randomly comments. This brings me back to reality. “No!”, I gasp. “Yes, silly!”, Pinkie counters. “Who’s opening it?”, I ask casually, trying to keep my voice clear of emotion. “Discorded Games is opening it! Who would have guessed that a gaming company would open a pizza place?”, Pinkie muses. “Hey, you do have bits, right?”, Nick asks me. “Uh, yeah... wait... why would you be asking that... WHAT DID YOU DO, NICHOLAS WILDE?”, I demand. Nick’s eyes widen. “I may have ordered a ton of smoothies... and placed it on your tab.”, he sputters. “How much?”, I ask. “The bill’s... two hundred bits.”, Nick sheepishly whispers. “That’s all the bits that I have! How am I supposed to get money now??”, I complain. Starlight tells me to get to Twilight’s castle. END OF STORY
Chapter 1- Prologue (Starlight Glimmer’s POV)“Morning, Starlight!”, Spike greets me. “Morning, Spike!”, I tell him. I then go into the library. “So, Twilight, what are we going to do today?”, I ask the Princess of Friendship. “I recently found a spell in the Star Swirl the Bearded section of the Canterlot Archives, and I want you to try it out!”, Twilight tells me. “What does it do?”, I question. “It describes a world where predator and prey coexist in harmony! It could be very interesting, and it would be something that’s never been done before in recorded history”, Twilight enthusiastically explains. “Are you sure about this, Twilight?”, I ask her. “Oh, come on, Starlight! You mastered time travel, for Celestia’s sake! I’m certain that as my pupil, you can do this!”, Twilight encourages. “Okay... here goes nothing!”, I uneasily say, before casting the spell. The scroll begins to glow with a pink light, and a portal opens up. I can feel the magical intensity of the portal! “Go on, Starlight!”, Twilight tells me. Hesitantly, I start to walk into the portal, but a bookshelf falls and hits me in the head, knocking me out.
Chapter 3- A Visit to Ben’s Grandpa (Judy’s POV)Ben and Ethan come out of the cell with the creature we found this morning. “Ben and Ethan, what are you doing?”, I ask in slight alarm. Did the creature do something to them? “Calm down, Judy. This is Starlight Glimmer. She’s from Equestria, and we’re going to help her get back home.”, Ben casually explains. “Oh... okay then.”, I respond. “Wait. The scroll that I used to get here... I think it was a one-use only spell.”, Starlight realizes. “Great. Well, I’m sure that you can use your magic unicorn powers to make a new one, so I’m done.”, Nick sarcastically says before turning to leave. “Nick! This is serious!!”, I protest. “Pfft. Does she even have magic?”, he skeptically replies. “Yeah, she does. Look at my sword.”, Ben counters, and shows it. It has a new energy to it. “Well, if there was a scroll for you to get here, there should be a scroll to get you home.”, Ethan muses. “Maybe it’s in the library?”, Starlight asks. Ben shakes his head. “I don’t think that the Zootopia library would have magic spells. We need to go and see my grandpa.”, Ben tells us. We get on the train and head to Bunnyburrow. “If you’re a human, then why does your old man live in Bunnyburrow?”, Nick asks. Ben sighs. “Okay, he’s not my biological grandfather. Truth is, I don’t know any of my actual family, but I call him my grandpa because he took care of me and Ethan until the day we went to the Zootopia Police Academy. He’s the wisest animal that I know. If anyone can help us with finding a way to get Starlight home, it’s him.”, Ben opens up. “...I’m sorry.”, Nick responds. “No, Nick. It’s okay.”, Ben comforts him. “Guys, this is our stop.”, Ethan reminds us. We get off the train, and walk to Ben’s grandfather’s house. Ben explains the situation to his grandfather. The old bunny strokes his beard, deep in thought. “A long time ago, our world interacted more with the pony world. A few miles to the east, you’ll find the ruins of the portal that connected the two worlds.”, Ben’s grandpa tells us. “Thank you, sir.”, Starlight praises the elderly bunny. He acknowledges her with a nod. I borrow my mom and dad’s truck, and we drive off to those ruins.
Chapter 5- Back to Equestria (Starlight’s POV)We emerge from the mirror in Twilight’s castle. “Starlight!!!”, my teacher cries out, and hugs me. “Well... we’re stuck in a world we don’t belong in. Whoop-de-freaking-do.”, Nick sarcastically says. “Twilight, these are my friends who helped me get back here. This is Ben, Ethan, Judy, and Nick.”, I introduce the princess to my friends. Ben kneels. “It is an honor, Princess Twilight.”, he bows. “Thank you. I really appreciate you bringing Starlight back to Equestria. I don’t know what I’d do without my number one student!”, Twilight thanks Ben. “It wasn’t just me. I couldn’t have done it without my friends.”, Ben blushes. “Wait... if we can’t get back home, then where are we staying?”, Judy asks. I shrug. “Can’t you use your unicorn magic to build us a house?”, Nick asks. Twilight shakes her head. “I’m sure that Fluttershy has a few extra rooms in her cottage that you could stay in while we figure the housing situation out. Starlight, why don’t you show them around Ponyville and then take them to Fluttershy’s?”, Twilight asks me. “Sure!”, I gladly say. I show them around Ponyville, and Ben and Ethan point out several locations, to my suprise, such as Sugarcube Corner and Sweet Apple Acres. Finally, I lead them through the forest to Fluttershy’s. “...and Twilight said you would let us stay?”, Ben tells Fluttershy. Fluttershy looks around, and gasps. “OH MY GOSH! A BUNNY!!”, she squeals. She then goes up and hugs Judy. “Hey!!”, Judy protests. “You can talk? That makes you even cuter!!”, Fluttershy gushes. “NO ONE CALLS JUDY CUTE EXCEPT ME!!”, Ben hisses. “Ooops! Sorry.”, she apologizes. It’s getting late. “I should get back to the castle.”, I tell my friends.
