Author's Note

This story will not only feature the EQG girls but it will also feature the usual pony pals.

(00*00*00*00 - This means that they'll going to another universe, whether it's a different one or their own.)

Welcome to Bovineville

The six ponies (including Starlight and Spike) appear in the castle’s throne room. “I’m sure you are all wondering why you are here?” Twilight says to her six group of friends.

“No idea.” Applejack replies.

“Me neither.” Rarity replies.

“Is it anything good?” Fluttershy asks.

“Good? Yes.” Twilight levitates a scroll right out of Spike’s claws.

“You see, while Sunset Shimmer and her friends are busy looking for the Toras in their world. I feel like we should do the same. Whether he’s still in our universe, or in any others.” Twilight opens up the scroll. “Which is why with the help of Starlight here. We think we may have found a certain spell that lets you travel from universe to universe. Safely I should say.” Twilight gives a smile to all ponies.

“A spell that safely lets you go from universe to universe. How do we know that it’s safe?” Applejack asks.

“Oh it’s safe alright. I did plenty of calculations and, I can guarantee it.” Twilight makes a face to display her genius

“Sounds good to me!” Pinkie somehow makes the open scroll appear in her hooves.

“Me too.” Rainbow flies into the air. “The longer we’re here, the longer he’s probably terrorizing some other world. I’m in.” Rainbow puts one of her hooves out.

“Aw shucks. I guess I am too.” Applejack says, removing her hat and meeting Rainbow’s hoof with her hat on her hoof.

“Here here.” Rarity’s hoof meets Rainbow’s and Applejack’s.

“Okay. Let’s do it.” Fluttershy says softly but also confidently, her hoof joining the others.”

“Absolutely!” Pinkie hops over to where they’re at, still having the scroll, her front curl hanging on to it.

“I’m so proud.” A sense of liquid pride floods Twilight’s eyes, having a small smile.

Soon later, all the ponies walk from the throne room over to the library, where the portal that’s used for all things EQG is.

Twilight opens up the scroll, levitating the spell scroll up onto the top of it, then casting a spell to make sure the portal connects with the spell.

“I just want to make sure you all seriously want to do this.” A concerned Starlight tells Twilight. “I know it isn’t exactly going back in time and all that but, it just feels worrisome.”

“Don’t worry. We’re all sure to not mess with the other worlds’ normalcy. Right?” Twilight answers Starlight before then asking all of her friends.

“Uh huh.” “Sure.” “I know I will.” “Cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.” The girls all saying at once. Pinkie of course saying her special ‘Pinkie Promise’.

“I guess so. But while you're gone, I’ll make sure to study all up on the spell we found. To see if there’s anything else we should know.” Starlight says to all ponies.

“That sounds great.” Twilight says while walking over to the portal. “Are you girls ready?”

“Ready as I’ll ever be.” Fluttershy says confidently.

“Alright. Let’s do this.” Twilight says as one by one, each of her friends walk into the portal.

The ponies’ own search for the Toras begins.

00*00*00*00

The search begins in a world that looks exactly like their own.

The six ponies magically appear outside of a town that looks exactly like Ponyville.

Cause it is.

“Did the portal just teleport us outside? What gives?” Rainbow says a little angrily.

“Now now. We’re just-“ Twilight is interrupted when she sees all of her friends, soon after looking over herself.

Their manes, tails, overall colors and cutie marks being the same as when they’re ponies but they’re not exactly ponies here.

Each girl looks at each other top to bottom to find out they’re now all cows (bovine).

“Weird, and freaky.” Rainbow says about her new body, looking over her back to see no wings attached. “And no wings. This world is officially not awesome.”

“And no horns.” Rarity says, pointing to both her’s and Twilight’s head to show no unicorn horn.

“Oh dear.” Twilight starts to get all panicking. “If no horn then no magic. And if no magic then how will we get back home.”

Applejack goes over to try to comfort her. “Is that all?”

“Yes!” Twilight yells out.

“I don’t know. I think I might just enjoy this new bovine lifestyle.” Pinkie says as she looks all over herself enthusiastically. “Plus I’ve always wanted to know what it’s like to have an udder.”

“Udder?” The rest of her friends say at once, then going to look that they too have one.

“Again, weird, and freaky.” Rainbow says again.

“Well, good news is that the spell worked.” Twilight says to all. “Bad news is that the magic in this world could be tricky.”

“Now I’m sure we’ll figure that one out.” Applejack says. “But for now. We better get a move on if we’re gonna find this thing.”

“Applejack’s right. We’ll figure out the magic situation later. But for now we better try to find the Toras here before he wrecks this world.” Twilight looks at all of her friends concerningly then giving a big, friendly smile. “But I know we can do it.”

At once, all six ponies start to gallop off, though after taking a few steps toward the town they see, well them.

For about five minutes, all twelve of them (including the pony M6, plus this world’s M6) just stared at each other, both shocked and surprised.

Well except for Pinkie as she and her other world’s counterpart stare at each happily, big smile on each face.

Other world’s Rainbow Dash would break the silence. “So uh, this is weird.”

“And freaky.” Applejack says after her.

Their other world’s counterparts not only looking exactly like them, but sounding like them too.

“You, you sound, exactly like us.” Twilight says shocked and surprised.

“Well of course. This is an alternate universe where we sound and look alike, but are two different beings.” Cow Twilight says to her. “Speaking of alternate universes, why exactly are you here? Not trying to conquer this world now are ya?”

“I..” Think, you’ll in a different universe where everything’s the same except for the fact their cows instead of ponies. “Excuse me, bovine brothel, but you hadn’t exactly seen anything that looks or feels threatening, had ya? Anything involving dark magic?” Twilight asks them all.

“Dark magic?” Cow Fluttershy sounds scared, cowering behind cow Rainbow Dash.

“Hmm, I can check with my dark magic scan spell...” Cow Twilight stares off into the air. “N- nope, no sign of dark magic anywhere here in Bovineville, or any surrounding cities.

Pony Twilight looks shocked at what she just saw. “Wha.. how did you do that? No offense but you-“

“Don’t have a horn like yours?” Cow Twilight interrupts her. “We get that a lot, trust me.”

For another ten minutes there’s nothing but silence, until cow Pinkie breaks it.

“So, how’d you get here? No wait, let me guess. You guys found a spell allowing you six to travel from/to other worlds. Did I get it right?” Cow Pinkie gives a squee.

“Spot on.” Pinkie says to her.

“Okay. I would question how you knew that but you are Pinkie Pie. This world’s to be exact.” Rainbow says to her next.

“Aw thanks.” Cow Pinkie says back.

Cow Twilight walks over to pony Twilight. “Say, I don’t suppose you could let me see that spell of yours?”

“I don’t know. Can I trust you?” Twilight says warily.

“Trust me?” Cow Twilight gets in a better posture. “Trust is an internal part of friendship. But you should know that. You are the ‘Princess of Friendship’.”

“How’d you know-“

Cow Twilight interrupts her pony counterpart by levitating a crown that looks exactly like hers onto her head.

“You're the princess of friendship in this world too?” Twilight asks surprisingly.

“Of course. What you thought this world would be nothing like yours?”

“I, uh...”

“Just teasing ya.” Cow Twi puts on a more serious face. “But to be serious, we gotta find a way to get you all back home. Got any suggestions?”

“I have one. Well question more like it. How were you able to cast that spell? You have no horn and-“ Rarity is soon interrupted by her cow counterpart.

“Well it’s simple.” Cow Rarity levitates out a needle, a spool of blue thread, and an unfinished blue sweater.

Using her magic, she easily finishes the sweater, levitating it over to her pony counterpart.

“Magic here is.. complicated. In some spots it can be real strong, but normally magic is real low. You have enough to do everyday household things but not exactly enough to cast interuniversal travel spells.” Cow Twilight explains to the new girls.

“Complicated? Are you saying we could be here for a while?” Twilight asks.

“Depends. Let me see that spell of yours.” Twilight decides to trust her counterpart, carrying the all rolled up spell over to her.

Opening up the scroll, she gives it a good read.

“Hmm.. oh, alright... I.., think.. we may have a problem.” She says while reading the spell.

“Problem?” Applejack asks worried.

“Well it appears, good news is that you can cast this spell. Bad news is...” Twilight looks to her counterpart, not a good look though. “But this world has a limited magic supply. And your spell calls for a lot of it. Meaning...”

“Meaning we’re stuck here for a while?” Pony Twilight finishes her sentence.

“Answer is, yes.”

All six of the ponies-now-cows look to one another, then towards their counterpart worryingly.

Pony Pinkie slide into the ground, yelling: “Nnoooooo!!!!!”
