This is a story of two lands. One was a magic land filled with fantastic creatures and stories of great adventures. This was the Kingdom of Equestria. The other was a fairly normal suburban town, that for the most part had no major problems called Peach Creek.

These two lands were seemingly unconnected and unrelated, yet had more to do with each other than ever thought imaginable. A connection that would be revealed after thousands of years of being kept secret. The chain of events that led to this secret being revealed began with a young boy sneaking into his garage early in the morning.

The boy walked over to a table that was covered with a cloth. He proceeded to remove the cloth, revealing a strange, silver, device. It was a circular device, hooked up to a radio and a large, blue panel that resembled a keyboard. The boy pressed the buttons on the panel. This caused it to make a strange humming noise. The device then made an ominous, glaring, white light appear in its center that illuminated the boy's face, The boy was revealed to be a skinny young man with a gap in his teeth and a hat that resembles a sock his name was Eddward but everyone called him Double Dee, and he was looking for something.

"Hello? are you there?" he asked into the radio while searching for the right frequency, he kept searching until the device then showed what looked like a purple unicorn with wings and a purple mane that had a violet streak through it. This was Twilight Sparkle a young unicorn mare who lived in Equestria, she had met Double Dee when she was working on a way to communicate with her friends in the human world, she found out she wasn't the only one who wanted to talk with other worlds. The two of them found out they had a lot in common, so they became friends.

"Hey Eddward, how did that circus scam go?" she asked in a somewhat nasally voice.

Double Dee sighed "you know how I told Eddy not to press the red button?" when she nodded he added, "he didn't listen."

Twilight gained an annoyed expression "of course he did why do you hang out with that jerk?"

Double Dee than shrugged "I've often wondered that myself, the truth is him and Ed were my only friends for the longest time."

Twilights face changed from annoyed to concerned and asked "so was it as bad as we thought it would be?"

"Oh no, it was a million times worse its a miracle no one died." Double Dee answered. He chuckled a little at the look on Twilights face before continuing. "But don't worry in the end we made friends with the neighborhood kids. And Eddy apologized for everything he has done over the years. But enough about me, what has been happening with you?"

Twilight then said "Oh not much except..." she then spread her wings and said excitedly "I'm an alicorn now!"

Double Dee knew about alicorns from Twilight, and honestly he wasn't surprised Twilight would be chosen has one due to being the princesses personal student, all the same, he was happy for his friend.
"congratulations Twilight, I always it would happen someday," he said with a smile.

Twilight smiled back at him. "thanks, Eddward." Twilights smile then turned nervous, as she was about to ask him something she has wanted to ask for a while "so Eddward we have been talking for awhile and I was wondering would you maybe want to..." she was interrupted by a loud shout

"HEY SOCKHEAD!!! ya up yet ?" a voice shouted causing Double Dee to look worried, he turned to Twilight who had an annoyed and somewhat saddened expression on her face.

" I guess you should go see what he wants, ill talk to you next time Eddward," she said trying to hide her annoyance.

"I promise we will talk later, but they cant find about this yet," he said to make Twilight feel better.

"Bye," she said before her image faded from the device. Double Dee then let out a saddened sigh and he covered up the device before running out to meet his friends.


On the other side of the conversation, Twilight Sparkle lets out a frustrated sigh before walking away from the mirror she used to talk to the human world with. After the Sunset Shimmer incident, Celestia let her keep it in case the human world needs her help, for months she has been trying to get around the time limit the mirror puts on visits to the human world. All she has accomplished so far is getting to use it as a communication device. She hadn't been able to talk to Canterlot High but eddward proved good company and helped her learn about the human world.

The issue is she wants to meet him in person, she wants to be able to see the human world whenever she wants but every time she tries to talk to him about it, their interrupted. "It's so frustrating," Twilight said to herself.

"Whats frustrating?" A young male voice said startling out of her thoughts. She turned and saw her number one assistant Spike a young dragon with purple scales green spikes and a small tail.

"Oh, nothing Spike, just the mirror," Twilight said. She and Eddward couldn't tell their friends until they found a way to bring the worlds together, but Spike knew she was working on the mirror. Fortunately, he accepted the explanation she was working on it to see her Canterlot High friends without complaint.

"No progress yet?" Spike asked. Twilight shook her head no.

"It's a challenge Spike, the mirror was made years ago and I can't figure out how it works," Twilight said.

Spike looked at her worried "maybe you should give up on the mirror twi, I mean your spending almost every night, messing with it and I'm worried your gonna end up hurting yourself."

Twilight gave a calming smile to Spike before telling him "Spike its fine, this is something I have to do but don't worry its perfectly safe." she assured him " now come on let's go get breakfast." Twilight and Spike then left the library.


Unknown to either party, they were being watched by a strange creature. The creature in question was a vaguely equine shaped shadow like creature, it watched as the foolish unicorn and that annoying little pet dragon walked away from the Golden Oaks library. It proceeded to slowly slither snakelike into the library. making its way down into Twilights little lab. It found the mirror letting out a sinister laugh, before entering it.
