Three Days of Equestria Girls

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The next thing I remember, is Twilight running down the halls, screaming.

"Help, thief, they stole my crown! Stop!" I jump up and quickly run out of the room, noticing that I still have the same clothes on as when I had fainted. I opened the door to the room I had woken in, and saw Twilight running in my general direction, behind another pony who was covered in a cloak, wearing rubber pads on their hooves to muffle their footsteps. The pony looks up and see's me, and stumbles slightly afterwards.

I thought she had seen my glowing Pink eyes, and used the opportunity to try and tackle the strange pony, succeeding and causing us to tumble down the stairs. The thief and I ended up busting into a room with a mirror, kind of like the mirror in the Harry Potter movies. The thief's bag flew open, and I saw a tiara like object fly out and bounce once before flying into the mirror, passing through it like a portal. I stared for a second, dumbstruck, before looking back to the pony that stole it.

As we had tumbled down the stares, the ponies cloak had come off, and exposed the mare beneath. She was the color of maize, and had hair the color of fire, and was staring at the mirror. She then looked at me and gave a smirk. Then, Twilight bursts into the room, the other 5 behind her. The mare turns to me, then says with a confidant attitude.

"Sorry it had to be this way, Princess." The mare then leaps for the mirror, and before I can follow, dashes into it. Yep, definitely a portal. I turn to the girls, and they all gasp at seeing my glowing neon pink eyes. Yeah, I guess I am still part Howler.

"Does my mouth glow too?" I ask the girls, and they all step back, and nod their heads.

"Sorry. It's part of being a Howler. I will tell you more about that later. In the meantime, can anyone fill me in on what the hell just happened?"

"Yes, I believe I can shed some light on this. Come, we must tell you who and what has happened, or at least, what we can guess." Celestia enters the room, and everyone bows. She just turns, and walks away, leaving us to follow.

A little while later, we are standing in the throne room. Celestia is on the left, Cadence is on her throne, and Luna is to the right, with us standing at the bottom of the steps to the throne. Celestia is speaking.

"Sunset Shimmer. She was a student of mine, before Twilight. She began her studies not long before her. She learned quickly, and was just as smart as Twilight. But, when she didn't get what she wanted fast enough, she became cruel and dishonest. I tried to help her, but she refused, and went to start her own path. One that lead her to that portal, and to stealing your crown." Spike spoke up at that, pulling out a tiara that looked like the other one, but was notably more shoddy and fake.

"She replaced the crown with this one. It looks like a hunk of junk!" He then takes the fake gem off the crown and tries to eat it, but spits it back out shortly after. "Uh, and that is not a real gem."

"I suppose Sunset thought that you would be fooled by the fake crown for enough time to allow her to enact her plan, and by the time you would have noticed it was fake, it would have been to late to retrieve it."

"But I don't understand. Where did she go? Where did she take my crown?" Celestia shook her head.

"I am afraid that you are about to learn more than I the answers to those questions. I do not have any idea what is beyond that portal, but one thing, something Starswirl the Bearded once said about it. In fact, it has something to do with our newest guest. And before you speak, know that I am not accusing you of being an accomplice." It takes me a second to comprehend what she means by this.

"Okay, take y, carry the 3, find the square root of 5,682, and divide by 0. Wait, the mirror must have humans on the other side!"

"YES! So it leads to the human world?"

"That is all I know. Nothing more. Twilight, you must go to this world, and retrieve your stolen crown from Sunset Shimmer. You must leave soon. Come, let us go to the mirror chamber." I don't need to tell you that we walked there.

Twilight looked at us with worry in her eyes as she saw the mirror. She started to walk up to the portal, before Rainbow dash and the others stepped in front of her.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. If Twilight's going anywhere, we are going with her." Luna shook her head.

"Neigh, Twilight must do this alone. If all of you where to go, it would cause an imbalance. We do not know what lies beyond the portal, but Twilight, you must face it alone. Also, time is of the essence. On the third day, when the moon peaks in the night sky, the gateway will close. And it will not open again for another thirty moons." Twilight and the girls give Luna looks of shock and horror.

"Thirty moons? That's how long it takes for this to reopen? And I have three days to get my crown back from Sunset Shimmer?"

"Correct."

Twilight nods. She takes a deep breath, holds it, before exhaling long and slowly. She then states in a calm and collect voice.

"Okay, I'm ready."

"Wait. Maybe I should go with her. I am a human, and who's to say that Sunset wont try and hurt Twilight for following her. I know about humans, and can help her adjust, and I can help her if she gets in trouble. And I am pretty sure I wont cause an imbalance because, technically, i'm not supposed to be here. Also, again, already human."

Celestia takes a second to think, then agrees. "I see no reason to not allow you to go with Twilight, and help her adjust to her new situation."

"Well, since you came, I know somewhat what I might look like." Twilight then looks at me and smiles. "Thanks for coming, Cameron."

"It's alright. Also, everyone just usually calls me Cam, since it's quicker and easier to say. So get used to calling me that. All of you." I point to the rest of the ponies in the room, and they all give me affirmations that they will. I turn to Twilight, and step up and take a hold of her shoulder.

"Do you trust me?"

"...Yes."

"Good." I then proceed to shove her into the portal. Everyone gasps at this, and Spike runs up to me, grabs me, and says.

"Why did you do that?!"

"Because she was already talking herself out of it. Also, nice of you to join her." I then break his hold, and shove him through the portal after Twilight. I then turn to the angry ponies in the room and say.

"Before you get angry, I did it for their own good. Twilight was afraid, and Spike would have probably followed us anyways. I will help Twilight, and we will be back before the portal closes. In closing, think on what I have said, Celestia, and you will understand why I did what I did. I bid you adieu." And I step through the portal.

This was the most fucked up mind trip I have ever went on. Seriously, the portal was crazy inside. I swear I saw Twilight's body stretched out before me, before being slingshot into the rainbow void. The void itself was the trippiest thing ever. The swirling colors of the color spectrum, all the colors ever in the universes, swirling and billowing and falling like waterfalls and other things that I don't even know how to describe. I don't think you could smoke enough weed to get to the point I was tripping at. And I know, weed doesn't make you see technicolor like this, but the point is the same. I felt my body stretch and warp across the void, before I was also slung into nowhere. After a second, I saw a light, and I was heading straight for it.

As I came upon the light, my body started to slow from it's incredible speed, and I was calmly deposited on the porch like piece of rainbow void. I walked out of the portal.

To see a school in front of me. And Pinkie Pie, but more importantly a school. And Spike was a purple with green ears Retriever type dog, but the school was more important. Twilight was looking around, also looking at the school, talking to me.

"How do you stand on two legs so easily without a tail? I can't seem to keep my balance." She takes a step, and falls on her hands and knees. I am still staring at the school. I don't want to go back to school. I finally am shaken out of my stupor as Spike bites my leg.

"AHHH, what the fuck was that for Spike?"

"For shoving me and Twilight through the portal asshole. Now where even." I stare at him wide eyed. "What?"

"Dogs don't talk in the human world. You might want to talk a LOT less. Like, not at all. People will find it creepy as hell hearing a dog talk."

"Fine, but lets help Twilight. She can't seem to get up." I look over at Twilight, and see he's right.I take a quick look at our clothes, and see that Twilight is wearing what looks to be a purple denim skirt with a starburst symbol on it, some knee high boots with denim covers that go over them, with three argyle spots along the front, also purple. Her shirt is a robin egg blue blouse that is short sleeved. My clothes haven't differed much. Instead of archers outfit from Fate/Stay Night, I am wearing a long sleeve maroon body, gray sleeve shirt, black jeans with my chain wallet, and a pair of black combat boots, my right hand is in a glove that has Colonel Mustang's alchemy symbol on it.

I walk over to Twilight and offer my hand. She looks for a second, and then takes it, I help her to her feet afterwards.

"Okay, so, here's the deal. We are going to have to become students at the school over there. I doubt that Sunset wouldn't have something to do at school, given it's proximity to the portal. I don't know what position she has, be it teacher, student, janitor, and Celestia forbid her be Principal of the school. We need to find said principal, and have them help us become students. With these things in mind, I say we move along. Also, Spike, stay outside. Schools usually have a no animal policy that they have to uphold, in case someone is allergic to dogs. Also, we need some fake identification. Pinkie, I believe that is why you are here." the pink haired girl nods her head.

"Yepperooni, here you go. Official identification in this world, with previous schooling history, medical records, anything that is necessary to enroll in High school. Now, I need you to erase our memories of seeing each other, so that I wont know her when we are supposed to meet. Here is the device, and your glasses." She hands me the deneurolyzer from MIB and a pair of nice sunglasses. They look really cool, and I decide to wear them to cover my glowing neon pink eyes.

"Twilight, Spike, I need you two to look right here please. Pinkie, you know the drill, look here, eyes open. Thank you. Now..." and I flash them all with the deneurolyzer.

Twilight and I make our way into the school, and the first thing to be seen when entering is the trophy case. We are in a large foyer. We take a look at the trophy case, and Twilight says the first thing that comes to mind.

"What do you think, Cameron, other artifacts she's stolen from Equestria?"

"Really, Twilight? It's a trophy case. You really think that those are artifacts from Equestria?"

"Sorry, didn't think that through."

"It's fine. We need to get out of the halls before the bell rings, otherwise you'll get swept up in a tidal wave of kids."

As soon as I finish saying this, the bell rings, and students pour from every door into the halls. I grab Twilight's hand, and start to make my way through the crowded hall, doing the usual dance routine of dodging and weaving through everyone, keeping a steady grip on Twilight behind me.

We make it out, and to one of the halls that are less crowded. As we make our way downtown, walking fast, we see faces that keep making Twilight gasp and do double takes.

"I know almost every one of these people. They look exactly like people I've met in Equestria. That's the CMC." She points to three girls farther down the hall, one on a scooter, the other two running along behind. The scooter rider almost crashes into me, but I dodge around and pull Twilight out of the way. The girls continue down the hall, and we do to.

After about another twenty to thirty seconds, we hear some girls talking down a hall to our left.

"Oh, i'm really sorry, I just found it, and thought I should give it to her. If I had known it was your, I wouldn't have given it to her. I didn't know you had dropped it."

"Well I did. I was about to get it before you grabbed it. You shouldn't take things that don't really belong to you."

Two girls were arguing in the middle of the hall. One of them had butter yellow skin, pink hair down to her lower back, and had on a green skirt and white shirt, with a yellow backpack. She had the same voice as Fluttershy. The second girl was Sunset. I could tell immediately. She had the fire hair and the mean girl attitude. I walked down the hall, deciding to speak up.

"You know, whatever it is she picked up, I doubt it was yours anyways. But what do I know, i'm new here. Names Cameron, nice to meet you Sunset. I hold my right hand out for her to shake. The girl on fire had whipped around when i had started talking, and was glaring at me. She gave a smirk.

"Really, and from everything you heard to learn my name, you should know that I am queen bee of this school, right newbie." Though she did take my hand. I let her have it. I squeezed her hand, and felt her bones start to shift as I ground them together. Her face contorted in pain, and she tried to pull her hand away, but couldn't. After a few more seconds, me smiling nicely and looking on with a warm look, I let her hand go, and she grasped it and looked for any damage. She looked at me and said.

"You are gonna pay for that, newbie." She stomps away. Twilight had gone over to the Fluttershy like girl, and I learned her name is actually Fluttershy, Twilight introducing me right away.

"Thank you for helping me like that, though you shouldn't have done whatever you did. She looked like she had you on the top of her shit list." I just smiled.

"If I had let every bully put me down, I would not be standing here. Though I highly doubt I am at the top of her shit list. I probably rank about two or three. But anyways, you okay?"

"Yes, she just got angry that I took something of hers that she dropped." Twilight perked up at this.

"What did you take?" Fluttershy gave a sigh.

"Well, it started when I was standing at the base of the Wondercolts statue out front, trying to give out flyers for the animal shelter, like I usually do. All the sudden, this tiara/crown thing fly's in out of nowhere and hits me in the head. I picked it up, and it looked like the crown that had been designed for the Fall Formal Princess. I decided to give it to Principal Celestia."

"Principal Celestia?" Twilight looked at me with a look of confusion, before shaking her head and asking a more important question. "Where is her office, me and my brother are hoping to enroll." I nod my head at this.

Fluttershy points down the hall behind her. "Third door on you left."

We thank her and make our way to the office. As we get there I pull out the papers we need to enroll, and we knock on the door to Celestia's office.

"Come in." We make our way inside.

"Hello, principal Celestia. Me and my sister were hoping to enroll at this school. We just moved into town."

"of course. By chance would your sister like to become Princess of the Fall Formal. I think that would be right up her ally."

Twilight perks up at this. "Princess of the Fall Formal. You wouldn't happen to have gotten the crown back from Fluttershy have you. I heard it went missing, and she said she had found it and gave it to you when we spoke in the hall."

"Yes, she did. I have it in my desk for safe keeping. All you need to do to sign up is talk to the head of the Fall Formal Planning Committee. She should be in the gym sometime later. I can handle the enrollment, and have your schedules to you by the end of the day."

We stand up and shake her hand, thanking her as we eave the office. At that time we head to the lunch room, and see Fluttershy waving to us in line. As we walk over to her, Twilight and I notice that everyone seems to be separated into different groups based on hobby. And to me, it seems worse than the usual crowds you would see at a school like this. We are greeted by Fluttershy, and head down the lunch line. Already the food display is better than my old high school.

"Fluttershy, I was thinking of running for Princess of the Fall Formal. Do you know where I would find the head of the planning committee?" Fluttershy had been grabbing a bowl of fruit salad, and when she heard Twilight's question, she fumbled it, spilling it onto Twilight's shirt and dress.

"Princess of the Fall Formal. I wouldn't do that if I were you. Sunset Shimmer holds the crown currently, and most of the students here agree that she is probably going to hold it until we graduate. The last person to run against her, for the Spring Fling, was ran out of the school in shame. I hear she now works at the gas station. Sunset Shimmer doesn't play nice."

"I don't care. I still am going to run against her for princess. What do I have to do besides sign up?"

"Well, if you want to win, you might try getting rid of the segregation. So to say. More like you might try and unite everyone under one banner. Dethroning Sunset is a good one, but try and figure something else out to go with it. Anyways, lunch is only forty-five minutes, so hurry up and eat." To which the shy girl starts attacking her plate of food.

About twenty minutes later, Twilight and I enter the gym.

"Fluttershy said that the head should be in here?"

"INCOMING!" Streamers fall from the rafters of the gym, and end up covering me and Twilight. We look around after getting ourselves uncovered, and see a pink skinned girl with poofy hair, blue sleeved half top sweater, a white shirt with a heart on the front, and a pink skirt that has the symbol of three balloons, two blue and one yellow. Pinkie proceeds to pull one of the balloons of her skirt, and blow it up. Twilight walks up and taps her shoulder.

"Hi, my names Twilight Sparkle and i'm loo-" The girl swings around and almost smacks Twilight with the balloon. Twilight notices who the girl is, and speaks up. "Pinkie Pie?"

Pinkie gasps, and the air in the balloon comically disfigures her as it rushes out. Pinkie recovers quickly, and speaks to Twilight.

"*Gasp* Are you a psychic?"

"UH, no. Not unless I missed something on my last magical checkup." I cough to get Twilight's attention, and charade that mentioning magic is a big no no. "Uh, anyways. Fluttershy said that this is where I would find the head of the Fall Formal Planning Committee." Pinkie got a disgusted look on her face as she whirled around to face Twilight.

"Fluttershy, huh." She says with contempt in her voice. "Don't let her shyness fool you. She can be a real bitch." Twilight and I were shocked by this statement. I speak up.

"You two aren't friends?" Pinkie Pie ignores my question.

"We need to get your name on the ballet." She reaches into her hair and pulls out a clipboard. I get their attention and tell them I am going to go look around the school, before heading out into the halls. As I do, I see a girl coming down the hall, carrying three cases of something. I head over to her, and say.

"Here, let me get a few of those for you." and take two. When I see her face, I get a shock upon seeing what has to be Applejack.

"Well thanks pardner. Was gettin a bit unwieldy. Say, you new here? I've never seen you around here before."

"Yep. Enrolling today. My sisters signing up to be Princess at the Fall Formal."

"Really. That isn't a smart idea." We make our way into the gym, and Applejack calls out. "Anyone order a dozen cases of fizzy apple cider?!" We walk over to one of the tables and set them down, Pinkie bouncing up and down saying mememe the entire time.

"Can you get the rest?" I think she is talking to me, and open my mouth to reply, when a deep rumble catches me off guard.

"Eeyup." I turn around to catch sight of Clifford the big muscular man-bear.

"Thanks Big Mac. Hey, Cameron, can you give him a hand? Make it go quicker?" I nod and follow the small mountain outside to a red pickup truck. It's old and beat up, but probably well maintained under all the scratches. We silently set the rest of the crates of cider onto a dolly, but I grab one or two to lighten the load and make it less prone to fall. We make our way back inside to which we hear as we enter the gym.

"Hey, how'd you know ma' name was Applejack?"

"Uh, didn't you tell me?" To which me and Big Mac replied.

"Eenope." Twilight panics and starts to speak in a flustered manner. Me and Big Mac finish stacking the cider, and he leaves.

"Uh, well, it was sure nice meeting you, see you later, bye." And has left the room. I stand there baffled.

"Wow, she ditched me to hang with you two. Ah well." Suddenly, a wild Sunset Shimmer appears, flanked by two lackeys that give off the typical bumbling henchmen vibe.

"This, looks, terrible! There should be more streamers near the stage, and less balloons!" In comedic fashion, the two henchmen double up on what she says, but fail miserably at being a figure of authority.

"What, I thought that the amount of balloons was enough. That way, when you want, you can have your two dingbats go fly around and see who is sabotaging your night. But, hey, what do I know about parties." Pinkie doesn't help me.

"Well, Cameron, not that much. Like, you seriously need to step up your party game. And comeback game." I shrug.

"Can't win all comebacks. But, if it's a fight, then maybe." Sunset has been glaring at me this whole conversation, looking upon me with a seething hatred, burning with a fire straight from the depths of Tarturus, I am speaking this whole thing and Applejack and Pinkie are laughing at my descriptions of Sunsets loathing gaze upon my fantastic body. Her thoughts wander to what I might look like under all these clothes, and is silently wishing she could take the off. Her anger is growing. i am stopping this topic." Pinkie and Applejack are dying of laughter, as Sunset is trying to burn me with her glare, a red blush over her cheeks. I just stand there and bow to my audience of two girls, who are still dying of laughter.

Sunset tries to recollect her dignity, and walks over to one of the cider cases. I think of a quick witty comeback to whatever she might say. She picks one up, and exclaims in disgust.

"Fizzy apple cider. This is my coronation, not a hoedown." to which I reply.

"Fizzy apple, fizzy apple, fizzy apple, fizzy apple, fizzy apple, fizzy apple Cider, cider. Who doesn't like the cider." And the girls are set off again. Pinkie picks her self up off the floor, and does another reference.

"Ah good, I have an apple I need to peel... Ein Adams Apple!" And they start giggling again. I then turn to the burned Sunset, and say.

"But in all reality, it might not be your 'coronation'. You aren't running alone. You have a contestant." She shakes off her burn scars and screams, "WHAT!?"

Pinkie stands up, and pulls out the clipboard from her hair. "Yep, Twilight Sparkle. She's running to." Sunset grabs the and looks closely. She mutters to herself, loud enough that everyone hears, though she doesn't realize.

"Where is this Twilight Sparkle?" She realizes what she has done, and makes a comeback up as quick as possible. "Uh, I was just wanting to meet my competition." She leaves the gym. I turn to the other girls, and Pinkie shushes me before i speak.

"It's okay, go protect Twilight. We know you are brother sister. Go protect her, we got the set up covered." I thank her, and leave the gym myself. I try and think of the best way to find Sunset is, before remembering that howlers have great senses of smell. But only in beast form. i look around for what I could possibly hide my body in when I am transformed, and look at the ceiling. I grin.

It takes me only a few seconds of concentration, but then a swirl of light rushes around me. I am blinded temporarily, and when I can see again, everything is in focus more. I can see everything with perfect ten-ten vision. I take a quick whiff of the air, and smell some sort of perfume coming from the gym. i smell two people in the gym, Pinkie Pie and Applejack, and the sent of manure and cupcakes is not what I smell. It has to be Sunset. I leap to the ceiling of the hall, move a tile of the roof, and crawl in. There is not a lot of space, but I can make my way around silently if I am careful.

I follow the scent of Sunset as best I can, my nose getting clogged up with dust bunnies. I finally track the scent to a hallway, the lights of which are broken and make the entire area dark. I see Twilight being backed up into the darkness, with Sunset talking.

"Should have known Celestia would have sent her star pupil after MY crown. And her little bodyguard too." Twilight puts up a fight.

"It's MY crown."

"Whatever. You are only a minor inconvenience to my plan. You don't know anything about this place. I already own it though."

"If that's the case, why steal my crown?"

"You want to know? Alright, pop quiz. What happens when you bring an Element of Harmony into another universe?"

Twilight give her best to think of an answer. But she gives a sigh in defeat.

"You don't know? Seriously? This is what Celestia sends after me? Well, it's not all that surprising. After all, what chance did she have in finding another student as talented as me?" It was at this point something unexpected happened.

Spike leaped around the corner and barked at Sunset, before growling at her. Sunset doesn't look threatened, and simply says. "Oh, and you night want to keep an eye on your PET. Hate for something to happen to him." Twilight is looking away from me, Spike can see me, but the most important part, is SUNSET, can see me. I open up the tile on the roof, and hop down silently behind Twilight. Spike get's wide eyed, but I put my finger up to shush him. He nods almost imperceptibly, and I stand there in my glowing beast form. My white fur covers my body, with line's of blue and pink running around my chest and legs like tattoos. My eyes and mouth are glowing with a neon pink, my ears the same shade. My arms, both prosthetic and real, are an electric blue, matching each other. My crystal prosthetic is seeming to pull in the light from my body, making my glow dim down, making it easier to stay stealthy. I open my mouth, and drool, neon pink and glowing like it's radioactive, drips off and onto the floor.

It takes a second for Sunset to see Spike's eyes on me, and when she turns, she visibly blanches to an almost paper white color. I hold my finger up to my lips, and she doesn't move. I shake my head, and then leap up into the ceiling again, replacing the ceiling tile I had moved. Twilight turns around to see what they where looking at, but I am already hidden. Sunset stands up shakily, and tries to keep her composure.

"He might want to stay outside. Principal Celestia has a no pet's policy. Fluttershy doesn't follow it, but Celestia allows her. Doesn't mean anyone else is allowed though." She says all this with a shaky, polite tone that sounds helpful, to which stuns Twilight. Sunset then walks away. I move away, down the hall in front of Sunset, and change back to my human form, before dropping from the ceiling and dusting myself off. I put my sunglasses Pinkie gave me onto my shirt, hanging from the collar, before walking towards where Sunset and Twilight where talking. I keep my eyes away from Sunset, until we are a few feet away. I look at her, showing off my glowing, neon pink eyes, and h=give her a great big shit-eating grin. Showing of my fangs and glowing mouth. She blanches again, and speeds up her pace to rush past me. I play innocent when I see Twilight, though I say something to Spike.

"Dude, I thought I told you to stay outside?" He looks at me, and I wink. He looks at me for a second, before his eyes widen, and I wink again. He gets the message.

"I did, but then I had this feeling like something was wrong. I came inside, sniffed out Twilight, and heard most of the conversation. Where were you at?" He winks at me.

"Well, I was helping Pinkie and Applejack in the gym some. What was up with Sunset? She looked like she saw a monster?" I give a slight smile, but Twilight just speaks up all depressed.

"Sunset was just telling me she found out who I was. She also told me some of her plan about why she stole my crown. But she did make a few points. I don't rule the school. I don't even know that much about this place. I think that I need to do some research. Do you know where the librarby is?"

"No. I wanna go follow Sunset, see what she might be up to. You look for the library, and Spike, go with her. You might be able to help her out. I also wanna see if I can find everyone else. You know, the other girls."

"That might actually be a good idea. If they aren't friends in this world, we might need to figure out why that is. You go ahead and follow Sunset, and find the other girls if you can. Me and Spike are gonna find some stuff out about this strange new world. To me, at least."

"Hey, this isn't like my world. People from my world aren't this colorful. Have fun Twilight. See you later." We part ways.

It takes me about half an hour to find Sunset. She was sitting in the schoolyard, watching the soccer team do practice matches. I looked at the field, and saw Rainbow Dash. I wasn't all that surprised. I walked up to the bleachers she was sitting on, and sat a few feet away. I knew she saw me, as she had gone pale again.

"You don't need to worry. I am not gonna hurt you outright. It's not my style."

"Then why are you here? Also, how where you in Equestria? No human has ever been to Equestria. The myths here are about stuff only found in Equestria, so I know that no human has ever been. Internet, books, newspapers, nothing says anything about a missing persons, anywhere in the world. How did you get to Equestria, and what are you exactly?"

"Well, I went to a comic convention as a Howler. A cosplay from a comic. I bought some stuff from a merchant, and then I bought stuff from a goddess. Though at the time I bought the items from her, I didn't know that. You may know her as Faust, but I will call her the Shaman. That's who I met, and that's who she is. She said she had a job for me, after I bought the items I now have, and gave me some sweet powers to go with them. I am a werewolf like Howler. I don't transform by laughing like a maniac, and I don't become a giant Hyena that cackles with laughter. I look like what you saw earlier. My eyes and mouth always glow, as that's part of Howler anatomy, and I have a sweet ass arsenal. And, I have a fake arm."

"What? What do you mean by fake arm? Both your arms work like normal, and I don't think they have gotten that far in prosthetic making." I answer this by rolling up the sleeve on my right arm, revealing my crystal prosthesis.

"I lost my arm when I was in a boating accident. I was camping with the Boy Scouts, and we had been near a lake. I went swimming, and one of the boats got to close. I don't know if they didn't see me or what, but my arm got almost severed by the propeller's. I had to get it amputated. When the Shaman gave me my powers, one of the items that I had bought from her was a fake crystal prosthesis. I had wanted it because it had looked awesome, and it still does, but again, with the powers came the fitting of the new prosthesis. It works like a normal hand. However, if I here this gets out, you will see the other side of the arm. So don't tell nobody about my arm, not even Twilight." She blanches again at the threat. I don't threaten people often, as it just doesn't feel right to me, but I wanted to tell everyone on my own time, or let it be revealed in a badass way. I looked up, and saw that it was getting late.

"Welp, good talk. I need to go and find someplace to sleep for the night, or I am going to go sleep in the gym." Sunset looks up at me.

"Wait. I might be able to help you. As long as you don't touch anything, and noone hears about it. Also, you will come to school on your own tomorrow." I look at her, and I think I know where this is going.

"Fine, i will stay at your place. Also, Scouts honor that I will not do anything funny, and noone will hear about this. And I will come to school on my own." She looks at me, and then nods her head.

"Meet me out front, beside the portal. I need to collect some things, then I will meet you there." I give a two finger salute, and walk off to head towards the statue. I can't help but think that I am forgetting something, but I don't give it much thought.

Sunset met me by the statue, and she then lead me to her motorcycle. She only had one helmet, but I declined as I was fine. i called forth one of the helmets from a piece of armor in my hammerspace, and put it on. Damn Isaac Clarke's helmet is badass. I get on the back, and Sunset zooms out of the parking lot. I pay attention to our surroundings, as I need them to return to school tomorrow. We head to the outskirts of the city, and into a small subdivision. She finally stops at a house that is one story tall, with dark blue trim, and a forest green paint. It doesn't look all that great, but it could have been worse.

Sunset pulls into the driveway, and gets off the bike. I get off too, and stow the helmet back into hammerspace. God that is gonna come in handy. Sunset leads the way up to her front door, and unlocks it to let us in.

"Make yourself at home. I am setting up the couch for you. Don't get any funny ideas, as I need to take a shower, and then I can find you some fresh sheets. Food is leftovers in the fridge, eat it if you want. TV's over there." She points to the TV, and then heads to the back area of the house. I hear the shower turn on, and head into the kitchen. I open the fridge, and see that she has some leftover lasagna, looks homemade. Never took her to be a cook, though she was Celestia's pupil, and I doubt she didn't learn how to cook.

I take the lasagna out, look for a plate, silverware, and a device to heat it up. I find all three, and make me a slice. About half an hour later, I was sitting on the couch when Sunset finished. She came out of the back wearing a tank top with a yin-yang like sun, colored red and gold, on the front, and purple sweat pants. She had a set of sheets and a pillow, and I stood up.

"Here you go. You can use these. Go ahead and put them on the couch, and do whatever. I am going to do my homework."

She heads off, and I watch a bit more TV. I finally grow bored, and listen to music on my phone. I eventually fall asleep, and the last thought is, Oh, I never got the enrollment papers back from principal Celestia.

I was ready for blood when I found out what Sunset had done. It was nothing to me, but it was everything to Twilight. She had gotten footage of Twilight trying to figure out how to use the technology here, and it wasn't pretty. As I was going through the halls, other students got out of my way. I don't know why, maybe it was the killer attitude, and the, 'I will mess you up' look that I had on my face. It took me a bit to finally find Twilight, though somebody else already had. I saw Twilight get pulled into a room by a purple and white being. Spike was quick to follow through the door, and I made my way in last.

I get into the room to see Twilight in a green skirt, leggings, shirt, and with a blonde wig. Rarity is standing there, looking at Spike, who is just about to fall over from the attention from his crush, is standing there.

"And we will need a disguise for your dog, which is to bad. He is an adorable little guy... You know, with enough time I could make him look like a rabbit." Me, Twilight, and Spike answer at the same time.

"WHAT!" Applejack saves us. She comes in the door, looks around, sees Twilight, and then sees right through Rarity's disguise.

"There you are Twilight. Ah have been looking all over for ya." She walks into the room, and is followed by Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, who bounces over to me and gives me the sly elbow. She then bounces over to Twilight, and states.

"I like your new look." Rarity gets an indignant attitude to this statement, and rudely says to the pink Tigger.

"I do have an eye for these things. Not that you ever seem to care."

"What!?" Twilight comes in before much else.

"Why do you think she doesn't care about your eye for detail?" She gets a cough from the other girls in the room, and she sees them shaking their heads no. Pinkie looks like she's about to bust a screw loose. Twilight gets the message. "Uh, never mind. Why were you all looking for me though?" Fluttershy nervously exclaims.

"I guess she hasn't seen it yet." Everyone gets a nervous look, though I just continue to be pissed. She did this, right under my nose. She somehow expects to get away with it. I had only found out about it after I had made it to school, to which she had a half hour head start on hiding from me. I will be sniffing her out sooner or later.

Rarity cuts me off from my inner monologue to myself. "I guess we should show her." She continues to give the other girls a nervous look.

"Show me what?"

Pinkie Pie pulls a laptop from out of her hair, and sets it on a desk. Twilight sits down in front of it. Pinkie says, "It isn't all THAT bad." And pulls up a video on this worlds version of YouTube. It shows pictures of Twilight messing up certain things, like trying to figure out how to type on a computer, but accidentally knocking over. Trying to use the copy machine, but getting blinded and falling on her ass. Other things that are degrading. And the whole time, Sunset is talking over it. She talks about how Twilight is different, and how she still wants to be Princess of the Fall Formal, despite being weird. She tells the audience, "Do you really want to put your trust in someone like her?" All of it makes me sick. It's just the sort of bullying and shaming like back on Earth.

When it's over, Twilight has her face buried in her arms, and Pinkie closes the laptop, saying. "Okay, maybe it was that bad." Twilight lifts her head up with jerk, and growls at Pinkie.

"YA THINK! Everyone at this school has seen this! That's why they were looking and laughing at me." The girls just stand there and shuffle there feet, not able to find any words to say to Twilight.

"What am I gonna do?" I finally speak up.

"Well, we need to figure out a way to bring your being different to light, and then make it irrelevant. And then get everyone united."

"And where have you been? I didn't know where you had gone last night. I had to sleep in the library, on some dusty old books. Where did you sleep?"

"Look, it doesn't matter. Point is, we need to bring your negative image back to a positive. Who is gonna help us?" Pinkie shoots her hand up, saying.

"ME, ME, ME, ME!" Fluttershy comes over to Twilight.

"Don't accept her help. She never takes anything seriously." She finishes her statement with a glare at the party girl.

"Uh, why do you have to be so rude to me?" Rarity just snorts at this.

"Don't play innocent Pinkie Pie. You are no better than Fluttershy."

"AND WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!"

"I am happy to offer up my assistance as well. TO SOMEONE WHO WILL APPRECIATE IT!"

The whole thing broke down in to a screaming argument, to which Spike stuck his head into Twilight's backpack. Twilight looked like she was about to blow a gasket. Applejack finally said something though, and stopped the argument.

"Listen to ya'll. Get over it and move on." Rarity gave her comeback.

"Like you did with Rainbow Dash?" The farmer made her reply.

"That's different. She said she was going to make an appearance at my bake sale with the softball team. I tell everybody they are gonna come, and then they never show up. She made me look like i lied to get everyone to come. That's totally different than what ya'll going through." All the other girls speak on that.

"IS NOT!" And Applejack joins in for another round of arguing. Twilight finally has enough.

"ENOUGH!" The girls stop, and go silent looking at her.

"Here, take a look at this." Spike pulls a book out of Twilight's backpack, and hands it to her. She opens it, and I see it's a yearbook. The picture she had it open to showed all the girls huddled together on a bench for the photo.

"You were friends once." The girls start to get that reminiscent look, and Applejack orally states what all the girls are thinking.

"The Freshman Fair. Ya'll remember." The other nod and give a yes.

"But something happened," she closes the book. "I think that something was Sunset Shimmer." Rarity moves to Twilight's side.

"Well, that's a good theory, but Sunset had nothing to do with our breakup." Fluttershy gets in on the conversation.

"Yeah, Sunset wasn't the one who brought fireworks and noisemakers to a silent auction I was having at the animal shelter. It was supposed to be serious, and Pinkie Pie ruined it." The party girl looked stunned.

'What are you talking about. i got a text from you saying that you didn't want a silent auction. It said that instead, you wanted to have a big party." Fluttershy looks confused at Pinkie.

"I never sent you a text"

"You didn't?" Rarity had been standing listening, looking thoughtful, and speaks up.

"You don't think she has been sending me all the emails saying that Pinkie has enough people to help decorate. Every time I volunteer to help decorate, she sends out that email, saying she has enough helpers. After that, I find out she did it all by herself."

"I never sent out any emails." Applejack states her thoughts.

"Maybe she's the reason why Rainbow never showed up." I give Applejack an incredulous look.

"You didn't think to ask why she didn't show up?" the girls finally notice me again, and Applejack rubs the back of her neck.

"No. I kinda stopped talking to her." Twilight get's up from her desk, and walks over to Applejack.

"Maybe we should go ask her?"

We get to the gym, were Rainbow Dash is practicing her soccer drills. Applejack was standing to the side of the gym, and Rainbow was listening as she practiced her dribbles and shots on goal. We were in the bleachers to the side of the gym, and indoors cause of the rainy weather. Rarity speaks first.

"Wow. They're actually talking. That's always a good sign." A few seconds later, Rainbow stops her practice, turns to Applejack, and they talk a little more, before finally hugging. After that, they come over to us, and Applejack tells us what had happened.

"It seems someone, and I think we all can guess who, told Rainbow Dash the bake sale was on a different day. She thought I had stood her up." Rainbow comes forward and addresses Twilight.

"So you wanna rule the school. And to do so, you need to dethrone Sunset. " Twilight looks nervous, but nods an affirmative. "Gotta say, I would like to see that. I will totally help you out." Twilight looks up and starts to smile, but Rainbows next words drop it from her face.

"If you beat me in one on one. First to five goals wins." She kicks the ball into the goal. "And that's first goal. 1-0."

What followed was Twilight getting her ass handed to her by the soccer player. I really don't want to go into detail. Dribble's, fakes, all the interesting things that happen in soccer. Twilight did almost get the goal once, but she slipped up and Rainbow just kicked it into her goal. After that, she helped Twilight up.

"So, how can I help you dethrone the queen bitch of the school? Because I really want to see that."

"What? But I lost?" Twilight didn't get it.

"Duh. I am an awesome soccer player. You look new to the concept of SOCCER in general. So I knew you where gonna loose. The point is, you still tried to beat me. I wanna help. How are you gonna become Princess of the Fall Formal?"

Twilight had no idea. I spoke up, and Rainbow Dash finally noticed me.

"Hey, any of you know a good place to get something to eat? Anything, as long as it's food, is good. I just wanna get something, and we can probably eat while planning." Rainbow notices me.

"Whoa. Who are you? And yeah, Sugercube Corner is just down the block some. Let's go." As the girls and I head to Sugercube Corner, I tell Rainbow who I am, and what I am trying to do for Twilight, my supposed little sister. We make it to the place, and I find out that it's a bakery/confectionery shop, run by two people, and Pinkie Pie when she isn't in school.

The girls order whatever they usually get, and Twilight orders a strawberry parfait, but asks for extra oats. The lady at the counter taking her order, Mrs. Cake, looks at Twilight and asks her why. Twilight just laughs nervously, and rather cutely I might add, and tells her nevermind. I step up and order an orange Julius. I will forever love, a good orange Julius. I head over and sit by the girls, and listen in on the conversation, putting in my opinion on the matter at hand.

Applejack had the stage. "Alright girls. We need to get Twilight the votes she needs before tomorrow night. However, everyone knows the Twilight from the video Sunset Shimmer posted. So, what are we going to do to get the negative light off of her and put on a more positive one?"

Everyone scratches their heads, thinking of a way to help Twilight get the votes. I sit there thinking, when Rarity jumps up out of her chair, screaming.

"I GOT IT!" everyone in the bakery goes quiet and stares at her, and Rarity looks embarrassed at her outburst, toning it down and explaining.

"I mean, I have an idea. It is a one in a million chance it will work, but I have a feeling that we can pull it off." She reaches into her backpack and pulls out some fake tails and ears, that look rather equine in nature. "What if we all wore these as a sign of unity." We all stared dumbly at her.

"Freshman year these where very popular. A way to show your school spirit. You know? Go Canterlot Wondercolts!" The cheer was light hearted, but jovial, and we all realized what she meant. Fluttershy came up with another idea next.

"What if, we were these, but also out on a song and dance routine as well? That way, we get everyone's attention, and we can still make our point, keeping everyone's attention and not losing interest half-way through." Everyone thinks the idea over, and i put in my thoughts.

"Sounds good. Most kids form where I used to go wouldn't care about something like this, or class president, or anything else like this. If they had someway to get the attention of the students and hold them, and tell them in some way that the students would like what they wanted, they would get more students participation on votes. i think your idea Fluttershy is great. Tell them about how being different is not bad. That should work. I'm gonna get permission from Celestia to perform in the cafeteria. You have fun working everything out." I then leave.

Luckily, Celestia let the girls do the song and dance, because it was actually really cool. I ended up delivering a drum setup to the lunchroom around the middle of the routine, and noticed Twilight getting ogled at by a blue haired, tan skinned guy, but she didn't notice or care, whichever it was. I did notice, however, a distinct lack of the sun setting in the lunchroom. I looked around, and saw her in the hall. I made my way to the second exit, and made sure the cost was clear, before transforming back into my Howler form. I made my way to the ceiling again.

I needed to tell the janitor to clean the ceiling more often, but I was still able to eventually pick up Sunset's scent again ,and found her at the library. I dropped out of the ceiling behind her as she was looking at books, and she didn't hear me on the padded carpet. I then laughed, my maniacal howling echoing for a moment, before I stopped and the screaming girl did moments after. She had thrown the books away from her, and had fallen over while trying to get away. However, when she realized who it was, she stopped, and came over and decked me on the snout. I was surprised by how strong her arm was, and rubbed my muzzle, before changing out.

"So, what are you doing here? You don't seem like the type to study?"

"What, and being Princess Celestia's star pupil didn't tell you anything?"

"Fair, you got me on that. Why aren't you in the cafeteria? I hear that the food is good today."

"I didn't want to be around everybody. And I heard the music, and didn't want to be the brunt of the songs backlash. Though, I am getting hungry, so I need to go get something eventually."

"Hey, where is you henchmen? I don't see them. You tell them to shove off, and take a hike? Looking to hire a better henchman?" I say this with as much sarcasm as I can put in it, and she scoffs, at it.

"Nope, I just sent them off on an errand. They should be back soon ,and then i'm going to study some for a history test. You know anything about the Pendulum Wars?"

"Honestly can't say I do. I am from another dimension from yours and Twilight's. I was brought to Equus by a goddess remember?"

"Right. I did forget. I would like to get some studying done, so could I please be alone?" The tone she had was sincere, so I left after saying goodbye. I made my way back to the cafeteria and got some food, and listened as everyone was abuzz about the song and dance that Twilight and her friends put on. I walked over to their table, and sat down with my tray.

"So, I see that everything was a hit, and everyone is wearing ear's and tails. You think you changed everyone's opinion on Twilight?" The girls looked at one another, and looked at me, before saying at the same time.

"YEAH!"

It was later in the day, after another lunch and another class, that everything started to go wrong. We all were walking through the halls, and we where commenting on how everyone looked happier, and everybody was mingling with each other, that Applejack saw Sunset Shimmer and her henchmen walking towards the office of Vice-principal Luna. She had a great big smirk on her face, and she walked over to the office door and knocked. Luna stepped out.

"Vice-principal Luna, something terrible has happened!" Sunset Shimmer said this with mock horror, and Luna was none the wiser as to her ploy.

"What has happened?" She immediately is taken to the gym by Sunset, to which I tell the girls I will follow her. When we get to the gym, I am standing outside the gym, and see that the inside is a mess. Everything that Pinkie Pie had sett up was torn down. The balloons were popped, the streamers had been ripped to shreds, and the disco ball was on the floor shattered. I didn't know what was going on, but someone walked up next to me and I gave them room to peek in. That was when we heard what Sunset was up to. Luna spoke.

"Who could have done such a thing?" Sunset answered.

"Twilight Sparkle."

"How do you know this?" Sunset pulls out a vanilla folder, and offers it to vice-principal Luna.

"Because I have evidence." Luna takes the, quote unquote, "evidence", and proceeds to exit the gym, heading towards her office. I turn to the guy next to me, and ask him his name.

"Flash Sentry."

"Flash, I need you to go to the library and look in the trash bins for anything suspicious. Last I saw Sunset was in there, and I am pretty sure that that's were the real evidence is. You do that, and I will find out who did this to the gym."

"Got it. Why though?"

"Because Twilight has been with me and her friends for the last two and a half hours. We have never been near the gym in that time, and I doubt that she would do this to Pinkie Pie's party stuff."

"Alright, I will get to looking. i will present my stuff to Luna if I find anything, get her off the hook quick."

"Good idea. Go, I will find the guys who did this." he runs off to the library. Not a moment later, I hear the intercom say that Twilight Sparkle was to report to vice-principal Luna's office IMMEDIATELY. I ignore it for the moment, and change to my Howler form, before entering the now empty gym. I take a moment to close all the doors, before going over to the disco ball, the biggest piece of trash in the gym, and taking a sniff of it. The scent I get is smelly feet, and it doesn't smell that good. I also get some cheep deodorant smell, and use that to start tracking. I leap to the ceiling of the hall out one gym door, and enter the roof cavity. I track the smell to several locations, but none of the people look like they would have helped out Sunset with breaking the gym.

Until I get to Snips, and consequently Snails. Snips has the scent all over him, and I remembered Sunset telling me that she had told them to run some errand for her, and to meet her in the library, where she was studying. Snips and Snails were in the bathroom, and I decided to not let them know my little secret, so I jumped down in one of the stalls and transformed back into a human. I then flushed the toilet,and exited the stall. I went over to the sinks and started to wash my hands, and caught them on the first question.

"So how was trashing the Gym? Fun huh?" Snails dug the grave.

"YEP, it was great. Me and Snips totaled the disco ball first." And that was when he realized, he fucked up. I turned off the water and dried my hands. The two boys quickly finished what they were doing, and washed their hands to. They then tried to walk past me, but I turned and grabbed their collars.

"I don't think so. I think you need to have a talk with vice-principal Luna." And then marched them down to her office. As I got there, I was about to knock on her door when Twilight burst out and ran into me. I caught her before she fell on her ass, and said.

"Whoa, whats wrong?"

"I am off the hook for the gym, but if it isn't fixed by tonight, the dance will be tomorrow night. But that will be to late, as then the portal will be closed. I was going to tell the girls this." I nodded, and told her to wait for just a moment. I then marched the two kids into Luna's office.

"Yes, what is wrong?"

"I believe that you might want to ask these boys what the gym looks like? They have a good knowledge of something they supposedly didn't see." Luna looks at me questioningly, but nods, and I leave, Twilight right behind me.

It takes about ten to fifteen minutes to get to the 'Carousel Boutique' Rarity's clothing shop, and when we get inside, Spike is already there with the girls. Twilight for some reason doesn't stay by me, but rushes into a changing room. Spike pushes inside moments later, and I stand outside. The girls look at me with questioning faces. I tell them all I know.

"So, I have something to tell you. But, I can't tell you unless Twilight says okay." Luckily, I am spared more questions, as Twilight steps out and says to me.

"It's okay Cameron. Tell them." To which Pinkie does her thing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVUjfPJAZlc&list=PL8pKbmq9QdC4n_vx6exXCOkDWoxZ4udJr&index=16

I just stare at her, and Twilight just looks at her like she grew another head. The only changes to the video are that she pointed out that I am not in fact Twilight's brother, but her bodyguard.

Rainbow Dash tries to play it off. "Yeah right Pinkie. Like that's what is happening." I shake my head, and say.

"Nope, she is correct. I am not her Brother, but her bodyguard. She is a pony Princess, the Princess of Friendship, to be exact. And, I am not even from her world. I am from somewhere else entirely. But the important thing is, that if the crowning doesn't happen by tonight, me and Twilight will be stuck here for another thirty moons before the way to her world opens up again. And my job does not allow for that."

"Wait, you have another job beside's being my bodyguard?" Twilight stares at me.

"What, you didn't think a goddess would give me this sword and send me to a world of peace if I wasn't to do something?"
And I pull out the sword of Artorias. All the girls step back, but Twilight just mulls it over, then concedes. Applejack takes the stage.

"Wait a minute. Yer telling me, that your a pony?" Rarity takes the mike next.

"Your a Princess?" And Fluttershy brings the roof down.

"Your from another world?" Twilight nods. Spike speaks then.

"Yep, that's what we are saying. Hey, Pinkie, how did you know all that?" The pink girl answers before Fluttershy brushes her aside.

"Just a hunch. WHAAAA!" Fluttershy gets in Spike's face, and I tune the conversation out as Rainbow Dash walks over to me.

"Yo, what is this?"

"It's a sword. What do you think it is?"

"You know what I mean."

"Fine. This is the Greatsword of Artorias, forged from the soul of the great wolf Sif. Wielded by Knight Artorias when he fought for his lord in his war. That is about all the lore I know about this sword, as I haven't done much research on it. I will tell you more when I get more." To which Pinkie Pie comes up and hands Rainbow a folder with the words 'Sword lore

"Well, there you go. The rest of the lore on this weapon. So yeah, I am going to put this away." I then put it back into hammerspace. Rainbow doesn't really blink an eye at this, as I believe Pinkie has broken her on pulling stuff out of nowhere. Pinkie then says something, that gets everyone on track.

"Guys, we need to help Twilight and Cameron. So, let's go back to school and rebuild the gym, so that way we can still have the dance tonight?" This get's me moving.

"She is right girls. Even if we weren't on a time constriction, we should still make it so that everyone can enjoy the dance TONIGHT, and not tomorrow night. And besides, it's the right thing to do, clean it up."

"Cameron's right, girls. I need to get the crown tonight. That way, Sunset Shimmer's plans go up in smoke. Who wants to help me clean the gym?" Applejack seemed to take a liking to Twilight's attitude.

"That's the kind of can do attitude that I want in my Fall Formal Princess." We then headed to the gym.

It started off as just me and 6 girls cleaning the gym. Then, some guys saw Twilight struggling to lift a table that was broken, and they stepped in, and then saw me and Applejack just one handing some tables, by ourselves. Then, when Rarity and Fluttershy where throwing streamers through the rafters, some girls came in to help out, then an earth lover came in. After that, it was a steady trickle of sophomore's and juniors coming in to help out with cleaning the gym. Eventually, we got it back in order. After that, the sisters walked in and announced that the dance was back on for tonight.

As everyone left the gym, they had to put their ballot in for who would be Princess of the Fall Formal, which Luna held the box the note's went in, and everyone who left the gym was saying that Twilight had their vote. We looked around at our accomplishment, and then went to get ready for the dance.

And let me just say, the girls looked fabulous. They all had something amazing on. Rarity had gone all out on their clothes, and had measured Twilight earlier. However, she hadn't measured me, and so had yet to make me a suit. She had told me to strip, so she could do a proper pinup of my suit, and we went to another room, where I stripped to my skivvies to let her work. I knew where her eyes ended up.

"Oh, darling, what happened?"

"Boating accident, then a goddess with a better limb. In that order. It was mangled when I went camping, and when I got transported to Equestria, Twilight's home, I got this, my crystal prosthesis. Don't tell the others, please? I don't need them knowing."

"Of course darling. Your secrets safe with me. Now, any color preference? Because otherwise I was just going to go with your natural colors."

"You do you, I wont stop the expert."And she went to work. She measured me all over. My arms, legs, chest, shoulders, waist, everywhere. Then she had me wait, to which she made me an amazing suit. It was white, with electric blue buttons, and a hot pink vest. She gave me a single glove that went over my fake right hand, that was white as well. I stepped out of the fitting room, and the girls all gave me a good cat calling. I even did the runway for them, twirls and all. What, I thought it would be funny, and they all thought it was in good taste too. Bite me.

Rarity must have called a limousine, because that is what greeted us outside when we all walked out. I was chivalrous, and opened the door for the ladies, to which they all thanked me, and then got in, and we were off. It took ten minutes to get to the school. I let the ladies out. As Twilight stepped out, and I closed the door to the stretch, she waited to take my arm, and I escorted the princess into the dance.

We all danced for a good little while, I mostly hung by the punch bowl, as I don't mingle with the normal's well. After twenty minutes, the music was stopped, and principal Celestia and vice-principal Luna took the stage.

"Well everyone, as you all know, it is now time to announce the winner for Princess of the Fall Formal." She took the envelope that Luna held, opened it, and pulled out a slip of card stock. She then said.

"The winner for Princess of the Fall Formal, is Twilight Sparkle!" Everyone cheered at that. As Twilight took the stage and was crowned, I was clapping along with the rest of the school. I was watching, and I faintly heard the doors to the gym open to my left, but when I looked, I didn't see anything wrong. I didn't think much of it, and continued watching. Until I heard Spike start yelling.

"TWILIGHT, HELP!" I looked over to the left, where I heard it, and saw Snips and Snails had Spike and were trying to drag him out of the gym. I was all the way on the other side, and Twilight was still closer than I was. I didn't think much, but I ran out the right of the gym, as the girls followed the two boys out the left. I had my suit Rarity had made put into my hammerspace, and had it be replaced by some regular clothes at the same time. I didn't want her suit getting dirty. I then changed into my Howler form. I know that the clothes transform with me, but when I change out, I don't know where I will land. I rush to the front of the building.

There I see something happening, and sneak around to get behind the statue. It was actually surprisingly easy, despite being a giant white, glowing, werewolf like being. I waited for my moment.

Snips and Snails where in front of me, barely, and wouldn't see me unless they backed up and looked at me. Sunset was near the front of the statue, holding a sledgehammer, and was talking.

"You don't belong here, and neither does your bodyguard. So, give me the crown, and the three of you can go home. If you don't, I will break the portal apart." She got ready to swing.

Twilight thought for a moment. She looked at her friends, and then she seemed to come to a decision.

"No. I know for a fact, that if I give you this crown, you will do something that will hurt you and everyone at this school if you put it on. Equestria will survive without my Element of Harmony. Do what you will, but you will never get my crown."

I couldn't help but think that that was the smartest move she could have made. I got ready to pounce, just in case she decided to go through with the destruction. She surprised me though, and side.

"Fine. You win." And dropped the hammer. Twilight looks surprised at this, and her friends come up to her, Spike next to her leg.

"You were awesome, Twilight." Rainbow Dash.

"Willing to sacrifice your way home for us." Applejack.

"I can see why your actually a princess." Rarity.

All the while, Sunset became noticeably more aggravated at what the girls where saying to Twilight. Finally, she snapped at them.

"Yeah, she's such a fucking princess." To which she then attacked Twilight physically. She leaped onto Twilight, knocking her over and sending the crown flying from her head. The crown was passed around, and I didn't do anything. Not yet. Something was telling me to wait, a little voice in the back of my subconscious. I watched as the crown was passed from one person to the next, like a game of keep away, which it technically was, before finally rolling between the feet of Sunset. She bent over and picked up the crown.

"I'll be taking this." And as she did, the other girls knew that something was going to happen, the air felt tensed and ready to snap. Sunset lifted the crown in the air, and lowered it onto her head. After that, the crown started to bubble with a dark energy, and it flashed and started to raise Sunset into the air in a beam of dark light. She rose higher and higher, almost to the top of the school, before the transformation began.

Her eyes had been shut the whole time to prevent her from being blinded, but then she opened them as she screamed in pain. The shriek echoed across the schoolyard, and her eyes glowed with more dark light. The crown radiated an aura of darkness, which spread to Sunset, and changed her appearance. Her clothes changed, her leather jacket turning into a leather dress, her boots gaining more flames, that looked as if they where actually burning. And her body had changed as well. Her ears had elongated to points, and her hair defied gravity. She had a tail, like a ponies, and her fingers where claws. And the highest notable features that had changed was the demonic ripped wings on her back, and her skin color. It had been changed to a dark blood red. She opened her eyes once more, having shut them during her transformation.

She started laughing. The next thing she did was look at her body, flexing her fingers and testing her wings. After that, she gathered magic, the element on her head glowing dark, and balls of darkness gathered in her hands, and where launched at her henchmen. When it struck them, they changed into imp like demons, and they started to advance on Twilight's friends. When that happened, the kids from inside the school started to scream and run.

Sunset turned to them with an evil leer. "I have had to jump through so many hoops to get this crown, when it should have been mine all along." She growled at the students behind the closed glass doors, before backing up and smiling. "But, let's let bygones be bygones." to which her hand glowed, as did a good portion of the school wall, and clenched her fist, causing the glowing portion of school to break into a ball, to which she tossed over her shoulder. "I am your princess, and your loyalty is to ME!" She entered the school, her henchmen behind her. I was still being told to wait by that little voice. I was itching to help.

The next thing Sunset did, was some sort of mind control. Her eyes glowed with a swirling vortex, and the kids that were caught in her gaze looked, and were hypnotized. When all of the students where under her spell, she turned to her henchmen. "Round them all up and bring them to the portal." They saluted, and went about grouping up the others. Sunset came back outside.

"You know Twilight, I didn't actually plan on destroying the portal. No, I was going to use it, to help me take over Equestria. And with my new army of teenage, mind-controlled zombies, I can do that. AND, with your Element of Harmony, I can take Celestia on, and win. She wont be a problem, with the power I now control." Twilight, for her part, was doing good. She steps forward and addresses Sunset.

"No, you will not reach Equestria." Sunset laughs again, and she looks around.

"Oh really. And who's going to stop me?" I was told by the little voice to wait just a little longer. Twilight's friends stepped up around her.

"We will." Applejack said. Twilight smiled at her friends.

And I was told to attack. I decided to make an entrance.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The girls looked around, scared at what they were hearing. Sunset looked around as well, wondering who was laughing. I pulled myself to the top of the statue, and stood atop the horse. I let another peel of Howler laughter ring out through the school grounds.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The girls and Sunset finally noticed me, in all my Howler beauty, and Sunset took a step back.

"Cameron? You think you can challenge ME? You foolish human." The girls looked at Sunset, and then at me with confused faces. Twilight spoke.

"Wait, that can't be Cameron. He's a human, you just said so yourself." They then noticed the fake arm, and Rarity was the first to recognize it.

"Darling, she's right. That's Cameron's prosthesis, his crystal arm." The girls then look at Rarity, Sunset included, and wondered what she meant. Applejack said what was on most everyone's mind next.

"Cameron didn't have a fake arm. Also, how did you know if he did have one?" Sunset answered that question.

"He does have a fake arm. I have seen it myself. He got it a long time ago, and got a new one when he was sent to Twilight's and my homeworld. i don't know how Rarity know though." Rarity answers.

"When we where doing the measurements, he had to strip. I saw it then, and her asked me not to tell." I decided to end the conversation, and jumped down. Spike barked a greeting at me, and I laughed a reply, to which he surprisingly understood, as he turned to Sunset, and said.

"He is fighting you because this is his job. He was brought by the goddess Faust to fight demons. Also, he told me and the girls to move." The girls moved.

"So, you want to fight me Cameron. Well, let's fight then." She pooled magic into her palms to create dark orbs, and she then launched them at me. I pulled out my greatsword, and deflected all of them. The explosions when they landed was like grenades going off. Sunset looked at me in surprise. I raised my sword, and laughed. Her expression changed quickly after that.

She came at me and tried to hit me, to which I dodged left and swung my blade at her neck. She dodged by flying back into the air, and I put my sword away, and pulled out the Leviathan axe. I threw it at her, and she didn't expect that. It hit her head and stuck, freezing her momentarily, before she unfroze herself and pulled the weapon out of her forehead. She looked pissed, but laughed.

"You just threw me your weapon. That was stupid of you." I laughed back, and thrust out my hand. The axe jerked in Sunset's grip, pulling her to me as it returned to my hand, and I used her momentum to punch her face. I then used the heavy ice attack Ivaldi's Anvil, and jumped up and slammed the ground, causing it and Sunset to freeze in place. I then went to her frozen form and started to punch her. She thawed herself out shortly, and I continued to beat her. She kicked me in the stomach with her boots and flew off. She then started to pool magic into her hands, and released a beam of magic at me. I raised my right arm on instinct to block, closing my eyes, and waited for the attack to hit. I felt it hit, but it didn't hit my body. I opened my eyes to see that my right arm was negating the magic when it was blasting it. I grinned, flashing my massive teeth, and deflected the attack to the sky.

Sunset was getting impatient. It visibly showed on her face. She growled in frustration, and summoned a spear to her hand. I just got ready, and made some of the weaponized crystals on my fake right arm in to an arm blade. It looked a lot like the one that Edward Elric made with his automail, but it was longer. I took my stance. I looked to see if the girls were still alright, and saw them over to my left. I paid attention as Sunset charged me with her spear, going in to skewer me from the start.

I sidestepped the attack, and grabbed one of the demon girls wing's as she passed by. It jerked her, and she started to bounce across the pavement. I quickly rushed over to her, picked her up by her throat, and slammed her into the ground, smashing her head into the pavement hard enough to crack. I turned to Twilight and her friends, and laughed some instructions for Spike to translate.

"You and your friends do what you need to do quick. I don't know how long she will be stunned." Twilight shook off her bewilderment, and nodded. She then started to say.

"Sunset Shimmer, you will not take Equestria. You will not take this world. And you will never be able to wield my Element of Harmony. Because you do not have the knowledge to do so. And the knowledge is, that FRIENDSHIP! IS! MAGIC!"

She and the other girls started to float up into the air. Sunset started to shake herself off, and I leaned in and latched onto her throat, enough so to let her know not to move. Twilight started to call out the apparent element's of friendship.

"Laughter!" and Pinkie Pie transformed slightly. She grew pony ears, and her hair lengthened till it was like a tail.

"Honesty!" and Applejack transformed, much like Pinkie, though her hat got holes for her ears to fit through.

"Generosity!" Rarity transformed next, and her hair grew into a tail.

"Loyalty!" Rainbow Dash was the one that transformed. Her hair extended into a tail, and she gained pony ears, but she also gained wings like her Equestrian counterpart.

"Kindness!" and Fluttershy got the same transformation as Rainbow Dash, making her look like her Equestrian counterpart.

"And Magic!" and Twilight was the final transformation. She got wings, tail, and a scythe. Wait, WHAT!

The other girls were interested as well, as Twilight did not look put off about this. I gave my best confused face, and Twilight didn't answer.

"Sunset Shimmer, you will be stripped of the magic in that crown, for you are unworthy of wearing it." And she raised her weapon. The girls gave off a glow, and the glow shot to the weapon, which started to glow as well, swirls of magical energy swirling and sparking from the blade. As all the girls glow's charged the weapon, Twilight swept it in front of her. The blade shaped energy rushed at me and Sunset, my teeth at her throat, and hit us before I could back away. I was thrown out of the blast, but Sunset wasn't as lucky. She took the blade of energy in the body, all of it, and she screamed in pain again, as the energy burned away all the evil, demonic bits. Her eyes glowed, and she started to cry. She spoke.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know there was another way. I'm so sorry." And she finally collapsed. Twilight flew down to the broken school, and found Snips and Snails still rounding up most of the kids, and was about to march them out. She swung her scythe, and cleaved right through both of them. The blade passed through harmlessly, as in it didn't kill them, but they screamed out in pain as the demonic entities that they had been changed to were burned away. Twilight then went over to one of the students, Flash Sentry, and lightly touched his brow with the end of the blade. His eyes glowed with a blue aura, and then the magic split off from there, and blinked through all people in the room, breaking the hypnotic curse on them.

I finally was able to dig myself out of the wall I had been thrown into, and pulled myself up, clutching a cut on my left leg, minor but still bleeding profusely. I limped over to Twilight, and the students stepped back. I looked at them, then transformed back into a human, wearing a short sleeve t-shirt and jeans, with some black combat boots and a chain wallet. My right arm glowed with an electric blue hue, and Twilight stared at it, as the other girls joined us. They also stared, all but Rarity. I looked at them and said.

"You know, it's rude to stare. I mean, I know I am amazing, but you don't have to rub it in." Rainbow Dash snapped out of it and commented.

"Oh yeah! I was the most awesome tonight. You were really close though, so I will let you take the spotlight. You did do the most after all."

The girls laughed at Rainbow's comment, and we all turned to the crater that had been made by Twilight, as we could hear something stir in the bottom of it. We saw Sunsets hand come over the edge of the crater, and I went and helped her out. She looked at me, and she said.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't know of another way." Twilight came over, and helped me pull her out of the hole.

"Sunset Shimmer, you will never rule in Equestria. Tonight, you have shown everyone who you really are." At that, Sunset looked around, at the kids who were glaring at Sunset with a murderous intent. I pulled out my sword, and the look changed from murder to anger and fear. Sunset was crying profusely. Twilight continued.

"The magic of friendship doesn't exist solely in Equestria, but here as well." When she says this, she turns to her friends, and me. We all smile and wave. Sunset looks at us too.

"You can seek out friendship, or you can turn your back on it, and be forever alone. The choice now is, which do you choose, Sunset?" Sunset is crying still, and I am holding her up as she cries into my chest. She looks to Twilight.

"All I have done since arriving is drive everyone away. Who would want to be my friend?" Twilight smiles, and I answer.

"I would. And I think I know of one other who will, and five others that are willing to give it a shot." I look to Twilight, who looks to her friends. They all smile and wave again, giving thumbs ups. Spike gives out a cheer. He starts clapping his paws together and shouting.

"Yeah, that's what I am talking about! Those are the girls I know!" then the funniest thing happens. A man next to Spike hears him, and looks over to him, saying.

"Whoa, did that dog just talk? That's weird." Spike gives him the most 'really' look a dog can give.

"Really? After all that you just saw, I am the weirdest thing? You just saw a guy turn into a laughing werewolf, a bunch of girls blast another girl with a frickin Orbital Friendship Laser, and a girl turn into a demon. I am not the weirdest thing tonight." I started to laugh at hearing that, and just walk over to Spike to get a high five. Sunset was standing near Twilight, and i didn't hear all of their conversation. Then, principal Celestia walks out of the school, and picks up Twilight's crown.

"I believe this crown belongs to you. It is in my knowledge, that a true princess in any world, leads not by forcing others to bow before her, but by inspiring them to follow her, and stand beside her. We have seen that you are capable of such a task, and I hope that you can see it to, Princess Twilight Sparkle." Twilight looks around for a second, before turning back to the teacher.

"I do see it."

"Then I present to you your crown, and the title of Princess of the Fall Formal. Rise, and claim your title." Twilight stands from her kneeling position, having done so when she saw Celestia come with the crown. Everyone starts cheering at that, and I lead Sunset out. She didn't deserve the treatment everyone was giving her, despite the fact that she did deserve the treatment everyone was giving her. I lead her to the destroyed school front, and set her down on the steps. I looked up, and saw Luna coming to talk to Sunset, and told her good luck, as I went back to my friends.

It hit me then. They really were my friends. I didn't have a hella lot of friends back where I came from, and of the ones I had, they couldn't even really be called friends. We just talked a little and occasionally hung out. But it was VERY occasional. These girls I could talk to and visit whenever the magic portal opened. They could actually be called friends. I thought this as I made my way to them.

"Hey, everyone, isn't this supposed to be a high school dance? LETS GO DANCE!" I turned to Twilight and asked. "We still have time to dance before the portal closes right?" She gasps, and looks to the sky, before giving a sigh of relief.

"We still have about an hour and a half or so before it closes, lets go dance, mister 'I am a werewolf who has a fake arm'"

"OH WE GOING THERE! Okay, if that's the case, then yes, lets go dance, Mrs. 'I am a pony princess who is a huge bookworm nerd'" the other girls laugh at us, and Pinkie says.

"If we didn't know any better, we would probably say you two are a couple." Rarity jumps in.

"Darling, I agree. They would make a cute couple." I laugh, and I feel Twilight tense up, but I miss her blushing at the statement.

"Na, I don't see us as a couple. Give it more time and maybe, but now. We honestly just met like, not even four days ago. It would be a rushed relationship." the girls all sigh, and we go to the gym to dance.

It was about an hour and fifteen minutes later. We had finished dancing, and had left the gym while everyone else had a good time. I looked around, and saw Sunset had been the only one to see us leave, as she was watching us from the destroyed school front. Twilight saw her too, and turned to the girls.

"You'll take care of her right? Help her learn friendship, and help her be a better person?" The girls gave affirmative's. Twilight turned to the portal, which had started to glow, which I took to mean that it would close soon. Spike had stepped up next to her, and they started to pass through. Twilight turned to me.

"See you on the other side." And walked through. I turned to the girls, and said my own goodbye.

"It has been nice meeting you, but I will see you on the other side, so I wont say goodbye. However, I will say, till we meet again. And Sunset, remember. I will always be your friend, no matter what." I turned to leave, but felt something hug me from behind. I turned to look, and saw Sunset crying into my back. I pulled her off, and gave her a final hug.

"Reference time. I'll be back. Who knows it?" And the girls, including Sunset, laugh. "I gotta go, bye." And dash into the portal.

GOD that head trip sucks. It was hard to stand after that psychedelic trip through dimensions. When I could finally register that my face was not my foot, and that my foot wasn't strapped to my ass, I was able to make out where we where back in the room that had the portal in it. I looked around and saw that the five girls I had just met two days ago were hugging Twilight, and Celestia was standing over me. The other girls noticed I was there, and Rainbow came and helped me up. I looked at myself, and saw that my clothes had changed back to the clothes I had when I had left through the portal. It was Archers outfit from Fate/Stay Night. Princess Celestia addressed Twilight.

"Is Sunset Shimmer all right? How was she?" I looked at the portal and answered her, as I walked over to it, putting a hand on the now still mirror.

"Twilight and I left her in good hands. She wont cause anymore trouble. Though I saw how she was your star pupil first hand. And let me tell you, her dark magic attacks hurt. We straightened her out though. I am tired, I am going to bed. Have a nice night girls." I head off to bed.


Author's Note

Hey guys, I know not a lot of people don't like Equestria Girls. Personally, I do, and I wanted to make this chapter as an homage to it and my like for it. I thought it would be funny. This chapter is mostly a standalone chapter, and only bits of it hint at the future nature of this story. I hope you will enjoy this chapter, and I will be writing the next one.

Have a Jivin day!
