"So, care to explain why we are here, Diana?" Black Canary asked her friend, putting on her mask while running.
"It's 12:30 pm. We should be eating right now instead of walking through a canyon." Green Lantern complained while running alongside the rest of their friends.
About 30 minutes ago, Wonder Mare gathered her friends because she said there was something really urgent she had to show her friends, interrupting some of them while they were having lunch, others just taking a break from either their civilian jobs or from the job of being superheroes. Quickly putting on their outfits and meeting up with Wonder Mare at a cliff of a canyon near Ponyville, most of them flying down the cliff, or Batmare gliding down thanks to her cape, they have been running to where Wonder Mare said they had to go to.
"I'll explain it to you when we get there." Wonder Mare replied, continuing to run ahead of her friends.
"I'm just glad my shift at my parents' store ended when you came to me." Supermare flew above her friends in her blue and red outfit with the "S" shield representing her family crest on her chest.
"If Diana says it's important, then it is to us," Batmare said with her exposed mouth not covered by her black cowl with bat ears, wearing a matching outfit with a yellow belt, booties, and cape.
Flying up to Black Canary with her red wings, Mary Marvel spoke to her. "I'm glad I have free time to help you girls with this."
"Yeah, it's pretty lucky if you ask me." Green Lantern flew with the aid of her Power Ring on her right front hoof, her short black hair complimenting well with her green eyes and fur.
"We are here!" Wonder Mare shouted to her friends, who only stopped when they bumped into each other.
What they all saw when they stopped was a huge cave entrance that was as tall as the doors to Ponyville Town Hall, which meant the entrance was taller than them by two feet.
"It might be better if you see inside the cave." Wonder Mare said to her friends and they followed her inside.
When they did follow her, it didn't take long for them to reach a stone ramp leading down further a cave, walking down it to the ground they saw it lead to. When they kept following Wonder Mare, they saw a wall right in front of them that shined and glowed when Green Lantern shined a green light from her ring on the wall.
"Here we are." Wonder Mare turned around and showed off the cave wall.
"A wall?" Black Canary was confused. "You brought us all the way to a wall in a cave?"
"Barbara, would you care to throw a Batarang at the wall?" Wonder Mare asked her friend.
"Sure, I guess." Batmare pulled out a Batarang and throw it at the wall.
What happened when the bat-shaped projectile hit the wall was most interesting as all six ponies watched the glittering wall swallow the Batarang, pulling it in like the Batarang was a sinking boat drowning in water.
"Wow, your Batarang just went through the wall!" Supermare was in awe and talked to her friend in the bat costume.
"That... that wall is magic!" Green Lantern was in shock as well.
"How did you find this place, Diana?" Black Canary inquired.
"During my morning training here," Wonder Mare started to say.
But she was interrupted by Supermare. "Oh, that makes sense."
Letting that interruption go for now, Wonder Mare continued. "I was training here as usual when I flew on my third lap and saw the cave entrance, so I went inside and found this. I kicked a pebble and I saw it go through the wall like there was no solid surface on it."
"Like the surface of the water and when you threw a pebble at it." Black Canary thought of it in a different way.
"After that, I went back to the library and wrote a letter to Princess Celestia, telling her to meet us here as soon as she can." Wonder Mare continued her recap of earlier events.
"So we can strike the wall and watch it ripple?" Mary Marvel asked before she started to charge her hooves with electricity.
"Mary, I think that would be a really bad idea." Supermare tried to turn her friend away from striking the wall.
"We have no idea what this thing is, not yet anyway." Batmare tried to reason.
"Come on, what's the worst that can happen?" Mary Marvel said before she sent a lightning bolt at the glittering wall.
That only caused problems for the six costumed ponies for when the bolt did the wall, the wall started to look like it could explode, which didn't while something else did. Feeling like they were being pulled toward the wall, which started to form a whirlpool and generated wind that started to pull them to him, despite most of them having incredible strength and Wonder Mare wrapping a stalagmite with her Lasso of Truth, said stalagmite breaking form the ceiling and allowing Wonder Mare to fall into the wall, the others soon falling in as well, and ending with Mary Marvel screaming as she went in. After all the ponies went through, the wall stabilized and stopped forming the image of the whirlpool.
Falling through a swirling vortex of multiple colors, the Super Six screamed as they saw an unknown number of images and moments throughout time and space like they were seeing multiple possible events or moments in their lives and events they aren't involved in. After what felt like a minute, the ponies landed on grass-covered grounds, most of them groaning as they did so.
"Well, I think we landed somewhere." Black Canary said and was on her back as she spoke.
Getting up from where she had fallen on top of Supermare, Batmare looked at their surroundings to see statues depicting ponies in regal capes and each holding or interacting with several items in their hooves, trimmed bushes, trees, and a hedge maze that made the corn maze for the Nightmare Night celebrations look smaller by comparison. But what she found next was her Batarang on the ground and picked it up from the ground.
Seeing her Amazon friend on the ground, Batmare helped Wonder Mare up from where she had fallen on her chest, "I don't think we are in Ponyville anymore."
Seeing the surroundings, Wonder Mare recognized the artwork and realized where they were. "Girls, I think we are in Canterlot."
"What makes you think that, Diana?" Green Lantern questioned the Amazon princess.
"I recognize these statues from my three-week stay here before I met all of you. Steve took me here because I felt homesick and these statues reminded me of my home." Wonder Mare looked at one of the statues. "Which means we are in the Royal Gardens."
"Maybe that wall sent us here when I struck it?" Mary Marvel wondered. "Sorry for that, by the way."
"Just make sure to never do it again." Black Canary told her other alicorn friend.
"We should inform the princesses we are here and tell them we will be on our way." Wonder Mare thought up a plan before she started to walk forward and was nearly stabbed in the eye by a spear.
The spear was being held by a unicorn Royal Guard in his gold armor protecting his white fur, who was also with several other colors of the standard Royal Guards holding spears at the six ponies in the colorful costumes.
"Stay where you are, intruders!" The guard holding the spear at Wonder Mare had ordered them.
"Sirs, we didn't mean to come here. We just got here by accident." Supermare told them, knowing she could knock the spears from them but didn't want to start a fight.
"That's what they all say." The guard joked with them. "Now, tell us who you six are!"
"You don't recognize us?" Wonder Mare was rather confused at how the guards could not easily tell who they are.
"You must've been living under a rock if you don't know who we are." Mary Marvel tried to lessen the tension to no avail.
"Clearly you ponies must be dressed a little too early for Nightmare Night if you are wearing those costumes." The guard said, looking at Batmare's costume in particular.
"These are our uniforms and armor." Batmare defended herself and her friends.
"Wait, maybe the name, "Super Six", rings any bells?" Black Canary suggested, hoping that will make the guards understand.
"Never heard of you of you before." The guard didn't recognize them.
"Mary, show them your wings." Wonder Mare commanded her fellow alicorn and the both of them showed off their wings and horns to the now stunned guards.
"Two more alicorns?" The gray coated guard questioned in disbelief.
"How many more princesses are there?" Another guard wondered.
"While my friend is not a princess, I am one. My name is Princess Diana and I order that you will escort us to Princess Celestia and Princess Luna." Wonder Mare ordered the stunned guards, hoping that they will see reason.
Thinking it over, the lead guard made up his mind. "Stallions, escort these six ponies inside the castle while I inform the princesses before your arrival." The guard then left the Super Six in the care of the other guards.
"You heard the captain, let's get them to the princesses." One of the guards said, him and the others moving the six costumed ponies out of the royal garden.
Following the orders given to them, the Super Six went along with the guards inside the castle and had to deal with castle employees staring in curiosity at the ponies wearing the colorful clothing and armor in Wonder Mare's case, curiosity being further increased by the two alicorns in the group.
"Not to state the obvious, but I'm starting to think not a single pony knows who we are," Supermare whispered to her friends, not anypony in particular, just somepony who would also point out the weirdness.
"I would get they wouldn't know who most of us if we weren't in our outfits, but we are wearing them and no pony is asking for our autograph." Black Canary agreed with Supermare.
"Once we talk to the princesses, I'll talk with them and let them know this is all a misunderstanding." Wonder Mare assured her friends/teammates.
After another minute of walking through the halls of Conterlot Castle and getting odd looks from ponies, the guards stopped with the Super Six in front of them at the doors to the throne room of the castle where Princess Celestia and Princess Luna sit upon their thrones, where they either sign papers or just sit around all day. Standing in front of the Super Six was the guard given the command by the captain to escort them here.
"The rest of us will stand guard while I'll escort you all into the throne room, don't get any funny ideas." The guard warned them and used the magic from his horn to open the doors, revealing the throne room to the six ponies and walked on a carpet leading to the thrones occupied by the Princesses, with royal tapestries on the wall representing the celestial bodies both ponies represent.
"Your highnesses, I present to you the intruders from the royal garden." The guard stepped aside to introduce the ponies.
"Seems the captain was right, there are two alicorns." Princess Luna, with her dark blue colors, noted to her sister.
"This is rather curious. What are your names?" Princess Celestia questioned the ponies.
"Your highnesses, you know who we are. Luna, we freed you from being possessed by the Eclipso Diamond only a month ago, ending your role as Nightmare Eclipso forever. Celestia, you are my mother's greatest friend before you brought me to life from clay." Wonder Mare recalled her connections to the two sisters.
"I don't recall bringing clay to life and my sister was corrupted into Nightmare Moon, not Nightmare Eclipso." Celestia didn't agree with Wonder Mare's recollection of past events.
"Hold on, you really have no idea who we are?" Supermare was utterly baffled.
"Does Paradise Island bring anything to mind?" Batmare asked as she had an idea of what was going on.
"I don't recall seeing it on a map, but it does sound lovely judging by the name," Luna said with a slight chuckle.
That was all Batmare needed to help her put things together. "Girls, I think are in a different universe."
"You mean we are on an entirely different world with slight similarities and a lot of things different from what we know?" Green Lantern questioned her more scientifically knowledgeable friend.
"Which means that cave wall is some sorta doorway here." Batmare thought over with her friends.
"That would explain the conflicting histories." Celestia jumped into the conversation. "This might require the attention of Twilight and her friends."
"I'll write a letter to them now," Luna said as she stepped off her throne and walked out of the room.
"You all must be hungry from your travel to this world." Celestia guessed about the six ponies. "Why don't I have the chiefs prepare some food and refreshments?"
"Thank you, Princess." Wonder Mare thanked her.
"Some of us were starving before we got here." Mary Marvel nudged Green Lantern on the side with her right hoof, winking as well.
"While we eat, we will explain who we are," Supermare said and started following the Princess of the Day with her friends.
Entering the royal dining without needing guards to keep watch over them, per Celestia's orders, the Super Six sat with the Princess at a long table that could be a place for plates, silverware, and drinking glasses to rest on. Stained-glass murals were set into the windows of the room, a golden chandelier hanging from the curtain covered ceiling, and curtains hanging around the room. Sitting close to Celestia was Wonder Mare as the others sat on cushioned chairs in different spots, with Celestia sitting at one end of the table. After Celestia asked what everypony wanted, the chiefs fixed up and served the food to the ponies, some meals being held off until more guests arrive.
"Now, you are a princess, yes?" Celestia asked Wonder Mare, who was drinking a glass of water.
"Yes, your highness. I'm the Princess of Paradise Island, home to the Amazons our Celestia provided it for. Ours is one of my mother's greatest friends and she not only did my mother, my aunt, and my fellow Amazons a favor with the island, but she also brought a clay statue of a foal made by her to life, creating me." Wonder Mare remembered the stories told by her mother and aunt as far as she could remember.
"What brought you to your world's Equestria?" Celestia asked her fellow alicorn.
"It was a stallion in our Celestia's royal guard that crashed on her island and Diana won the right to go to Equestria in order to take him home, where she met all of us much later." Mary Marvel stopped eating ice cream and gave an explanation, before getting back to eating from the bowel.
"Sounds like an interesting series of events." Celestia giggled at what she was told, sipping a cup of tea.
Suddenly, everypony turned their heads to a pair of closed doors, hearing knocking on it.
"Sister, Twilight and her friends are here." The ponies heard Luna announce to Celestia.
"You may enter," Celestia informed her younger sister.
Opening the doors, Princess Luna let in a group of six ponies that in this world are the legendary saviors of this version of Equestria. Princess Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie, along with Spike the Dragon, all walk into the room where they see the Super Six eating with Celestia.
"Princess Celestia, we left as soon as we got the letter." Twilight was the first of the group of friends to speak. "You said something about ponies from another world."
"Indeed I have, Twilight," Celestia replied and motioned her left hoof to the Super Six. "May I introduce... I'm sorry, I never got either of your names."
"I'm Princess Diana, or you can call me Wonder Mare." Wonder Mare introduced herself before turning to her friends. "Girls, I think we say our real names to them, they look friendly enough we can trust them."
Batmare took off her cowl to show off her purple fur and red mane. "Barbara Gordon, or Batmare if you want."
"Kara Danvers, or Supermare to anypony who doesn't know my secret identity." Supermare waved at them.
"Jessica Cruz, Green Lantern, because of the lantern that recharges my ring." Green Lantern showed off her ring.
"Very beautiful, darling." Rarity complemented Green Lantern when she saw the ring.
"Dinah Lance, Black Canary to the stallions at the gym because of a sonic screech I have." Black Canary took off her mask.
"Mary Marvel," Mary Marvel said and smiled before looking at her friends and the other six ponies with the dragon. "I'm still not ready to tell my real name."
"It's alright with us, sugarcube." Applejack assured her.
Looking closer at Wonder Mare and Mary Marvel, Rainbow Dash identified their horns and wings. "Excuse me, Wonder Mare and Mary Marvel, are you alicorns?"
"Yes." Wonder Mare and Mary Marvel said at the exact same time.
"Then you must princesses too." Twilight guessed like everypony else already had.
"I'm a princess, Mary isn't." Wonder Mare confirmed for them.
"That's so awesome!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed in excitement.
"Wait a sec, are you superheroes?" Spike got everypony's attention when he asked, the costumes making him think so.
"Yes, we are superheroes in our world." Black Canary replied to the dragon.
"Wow, that is supertastic!" Pinkie Pie made up words to describe what she thought.
"She does know that isn't a real word, right?" Batmare asked anypony in the group.
"It's Pinkie Pie, best if you don't question it." Applejack recommended to Batmare.
"So, who are all of you?" Wonder Mare asked the group of friends.
"I'm Twilight Sparkle." The violet alicorn said.
"Applejack." The orange earth pony introduced herself.
"Name's Rainbow Dash, wonderbolt, and fastest flyer in Equestria." Rainbow Dash not only introduced herself but boosted her ego.
"Rarity." Rarity whipped her purple mane.
"Pinkie Pie, most fun pony in Equestria that wants you to smile." Pinkie Pie bounced into the ceiling up and back down.
The last pony was Fluttershy, who stayed silent the whole time. "I'm Fluttershy."
The last member of the group was Spike as Twilight went over to him. "This is Spike, my personal assistant and the dragon I can always count on." Twilight introduced him.
"That's cool to have a dragon on your side." Mary Marvel told Twilight.
"Why don't you join us for lunch?" Celestia asked the ponies standing.
Taking their seats at the table, the 6 ponies and the dragon joined everypony else in eating whatever they selected and talked with each other, Twilight and Wonder Mare sitting across from each other.
"So, you didn't always have wings?" Wonder Mare was being told of Twilight's past.
"I had to go through a lot of lessons on friendship, needed to finish completing a spell that switched my friend's cutie marks, and she gave me wings with the added bonus of being a princess." Twilight recounted and looked at Celestia, who smiled as she spoke.
"My mother is the queen of an entire island populated only by mares." Wonder Mare informed Twilight, who looked in shock at the idea.
"Sounds really wonderful, if you ask me." Rarity sounded delighted. "I bet the dresses are lovely there."
"The Amazons aren't really known for being too interested in dresses, they usually prefer to wear armor." Wonder Mare corrected Rarity.
Rarity was a little disappointed with the answer. "Well, everypony has their way of living, I accept that."
Meanwhile, Green Lantern and Supermare were talking with Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash about their lives.
"Must be exhausting to take care of animals, Fluttershy." Green Lantern said to the shy pegasus.
"It might be sometimes, but it is worth it to spend time with all kinds of animals." Fluttershy took pride in doing what she loves.
"Rainbow Dash, you performed a Sonic Rainboom?" Green Lantern asked the athletic loyal pegasus.
"We don't know of anypony in our world doing that before." Supermare was a little jealous. "Though, it makes perfect sense with your name."
"Yeah, it is like my name lead to my destiny. Also, when I did for the first time, it helped all six of us get our cutie marks." Rainbow Dash remembered the realization they all had a long time ago.
"That sounds like one big coincidence if you ask me." Mary Marvel was in disbelief at what she was hearing. "But kinda sweet too."
"There was even a pony who went back in time to stop the Rainboom from ever happening, leading to several bad versions of the timeline. But Twilight convinced her to stop and she is now our friend." Pinkie Pie informed the Super Six in an excited manner and they just looked a little confused and concerned.
"She hasn't done anything evil recently before or after, right?" Black Canary asked out of her curiosity.
"Before that, she enslaved a town into believing all cutie marks are evil." Pinkie Pie blurted out again. "After the time travel, she used mind con..." She wanted to continue, but Applejack threw a cupcake into her mouth to silence the party pony.
Hitting her teacup, Celestia got everypony's attention. "Anyway, I think Twilight has an idea to get you six home," Celestia said to the Super Six.
"But it means we are gonna need to head to Ponyville so you can see what I have in mind." Twilight gave the Super Six information.
"Oh, we can get to see another Ponyville?" Batmare was excited at getting to see how different things are.
"Since nopony knows who we are, we don't even need to be in our clothes." Wonder Mare thought of and most the ponies thought nothing bad could happen.
"I won't take my cape off." Mary Marvel already stated her own input.
"What about the lightning bolt?" Spike pointed his right claw at Mary Marvel's chest, which had a golden bolt on it.
Mary Marvel looked like she was afraid Spike could rip it off. "It's kinda stuck to me like a cutie mark." She told Spike and showed her cutie mark off, matching the symbol on her chest.
"We'll follow you girls to your Ponyville if it means there is a way to get back home." Black Canary agreed with Twilight's plan, the others nodding with her.
"Then it is settled. Elements of Justice?" Wonder Mare asked her friends and they knew to stand up.
"Elements of Harmony?" Twilight asked her own group of friends.
"To Ponyville!" All 12 of them cheered in unison.
"But can we finish our food first?" Rainbow Dash asked any of the two leaders. "I haven't had anything to eat before we got here."
"Fine. Then we pack the Super Six's stuff into suitcases and get on the train back to Ponyville." Twilight settled on what Rainbow Dash had asked.
"To Ponyville!" All 12 shouted in unison again, while Spike, Celestia, and Luna watched in amusement.
Later, the 12 ponies and the dragon got onto the train to Ponyville, all of them getting into a passager car and finding seats to relax on until they arrive. Before they left the castle, 4 members of the Super Six took off their outfits, armor, and weapons, putting them all into a suitcase. The only ones who didn't put away their gear and clothing were Mary Marvel as she had her cape on and Green Lantern still had her ring on, she just made it recall her green fur acting as her uniform and revealed her natural brown coat. Sitting next to Twilight was Princess Diana, while Pinkie Pie and Mary Marvel sat on a chair across from them.
"So, this Lasso makes ponies tell the truth, no matter what?" Twilight asked the Amazon princess as Diana put her golden lasso between her and Twilight.
"I wanna try it on myself!" Pinkie Pie declared excitedly.
"Like Twilight just said, it will make you reveal the truth, even if you try to resist," Diana warned the pink earth pony, hoping nopony would need to suffer humiliation.
"I can take it." Pinkie replied and Diana wrapped Pinkie's left front hoof with a small amount of her lasso, which glowed as soon as it made contact. "I could take it even if it wanted me to say that I had one of Applejack's pies behind her back." Pinkie looked disturbed by what she had said.
"You did what?" Applejack turned her head from where she was sitting across Jessica Cruz. "I thought Apple Bloom ate it."
While Wonder Mare was pulling her lasso off of Pinkie, Twilight tried to calm things down. "I think it's safe to say the lasso is no joke and we shouldn't play around with it."
"The truth hurts, right, Applejack?" Rainbow Dash asked the pony who represents the Element of Honesty.
"No argument there, partner." Applejack recalled the events of her running away from her friends after she didn't a single blue ribbon in a rodeo, soon telling them the truth when they chased her.
Sitting next to Rainbow Dash was Kara as she didn't have her usual glasses on when she wasn't in her Supermare costume.
"So what are you, Kara? Barbara said you have laser eyes and I don't know anypony who could do that." Applejack wondered about the blonde pegasus with the ponytail mane.
"I'm an alien from a planet called Krypton," Kara admitted and everypony that wasn't her group of friends heard that, Spike the most shocked as he sat next to Rarity and Green Lantern.
"An alien? Like from outer space?" Spike questioned the alien pony. "But you look like any other pony."
"I thought the same thing when I first met the ponies who would later become my family," Supermare remembered the day she was found by the Danvers family and became a member of.
"My ring was made by aliens who are the founders and leaders of an organization similar to the royal guard." Jessica jumped into the conversation as she sat next to Black Canary, Rarity and Fluttershy across from them.
"So how is space?" Fluttershy asked. "I imagine it must be scary up there."
"It kinda is scary sometimes. But if I didn't have the ability to overcome my fears, I wouldn't be wearing this right now." Jessica looked at her ring and its printed image of the symbol of the Green Lantern Corps.
"It is very stylish, darling." Rarity admired the ring. "Green is very much your color."
"Oh, do you get to meet any cute space creatures?" Fluttershy just thought of the idea.
Recalling all she had seen, Jessica came up with an answer. "One of the Lanterns I work with is a talking squirrel."
"A talking squirrel?" Fluttershy was both shocked and happy with the information. "That sounds like the most wonderful kind of squirrel."
"I'm sure he would love to hear that, Fluttershy." Jessica giggled.
"So, Dinah, you like to wear the mask because..." Rarity pondered over why the dark blue pegasus would wear that.
"It just looked great to me and I didn't really have anything to hide from ponies, so what does it matter?" Dinah responded. "Plus, my mother used to wear it during her time in the royal guard before she had me. I figured I could make her proud by wearing it and protect ponies as she did."
"I'm sure she is very proud of you." Applejack walked over to the boxing pony.
"Thank you, Applejack." Dinah was glad to hear that.
After what felt like ages of waiting in the train, the 12 ponies and the dragon got off at the station and started to walk, the Super Six following Twilight and her friends to a destination they didn't even tell them, as the other group of friends were keeping something in suspense. While walking through Ponyville, the Super Six looked around as they walked and saw familiar faces and places, but some ponies they knew were not seen.
"I've noticed Cheerliee, Lyra Heartstrings, Bon Bon, and a whole bunch of other ponies we have back home," Batmare noted to her friends and Twilight's group of friends.
"You have them too?" Twilight asked the purple earth pony.
"Yes, though I notice some differences, such as missing buildings." Batmare analyzed the surrounding area and didn't find the Golden Oak Library.
"Here we are!" Twilight turned around and she saw the reactions of the Super Six as they stared at the crystal castle that stood atop grass plains, stood out from the rest of Ponyville with its purple and blue crystal-like exterior, and the star on top of the castle that looked like the one on Twilight's cutie mark.
Even though she was stunned by the utter beauty of the castle, Dinah was able to get out some words. "You think we would see that as soon as we got here."
"Where did you even get this much crystal?" Supermare asked as she couldn't think of a place nearby with that much crystal to build something as big as a castle.
"The castle came from a chest that grew out of a tree where the Elements of Harmony came from." Pinkie Pie gave a quick explanation.
"Wonder if that will happen to us," Jessica questioned.
Going inside the castle, the whole group went to the library of the castle, where hundreds of books were placed on shelves surrounding the entire room, lights bringing brightness to the room, a couple of tables to read the books on, and a single ladder to help reach the books on the higher shelves. But they all heard two ponies coming from the kitchen and found Starlight Glimmer talking with Trixie, not aware of the guests in the castle.
"I heard you girls coming in. So what is the thing we must do to save Equestria this time." Starlight said, expecting this sort of thing at this point.
"Not so much saving Equestria this time," Twilight responded and pointed out the Super Six to the two unicorns.
But it was Mary Marvel and Diana that got more attention from Starlight and Trixie.
"Two more alicorns? Trixie cannot believe what she is seeing!" Trixie exclaimed in the third person.
"Did she just talk in the..." Diana was about to ask.
"Yes." The ponies of this world answered in unison.
"Okay, Trixie is right. Where did these two alicorns come from?" Starlight got curious as well.
"They and the rest of these ponies are from another reality." Twilight quickly explained.
"Not like that other place we've been to, right?" Starlight asked her mentor.
"No, they are ponies back on their world. We just don't exist there as far as they know." Twilight recalled all the info they were told.
"These ponies' names are Princess Diana, Kara Danvers, Barbara Gordon, Jessica Cruz, Dinah Lance, and Mary Marvel." Twilight pointed out the six of them from left to right. "These two are Starlight Glimmer and Trixie."
"Oh, so Starlight is the one who tried to mess with time." Mary Marvel figured out.
Starlight face then turned into one of shame and regret. "Yes, I did that, among other things."
"But she has made up for it by saving us from a changeling takeover." Twilight went over to her student.
Deciding to move the conversation to something else, Starlight chose to talk with Diana. "What are you the princess of?"
"My fellow Amazons on my home island," Diana answered.
"That's interesting." Starlight was fascinated.
"Anyway, Starlight, I'm glad you are here. Your help might be needed." Twilight was glad Starlight was still in the castle.
Walking forward to a mirror surrounded by a tall horseshoe and a bunch of machinery that seemed to power it.
"What's with the mirror?" Kara gazed at the mirror.
"It's also a doorway to another world me, Spike, and Starlight have been to. I think we can alter its pathway to take you six home, but it is not going to be easy." Twilight exposited her plan.
"If it gets us home, we accept it," Diana answered, the others nodding.
"Then, please give me hair samples," Twilight ordered them.
"I think that is gonna be a little difficult for me and Mary, our hair is indestructible." Kara put her right hoof to her hair. "Though my heat vision can cut it when I aim at a window and the beams reflect."
"But maybe you shouldn't cut your mane, it's just too fabulous." Rarity gave another complement.
"Relax, it will grow back." Kara tried to assure her.
"Then if you need a pony to take care of your hair, I'm the pony you need." Rarity informed them.
"I could use a trim." Jessica raised her right hoof.
"Splendid." Rarity was satisfied.
"Then it is decided that we will each give Twilight hair samples," Diana spoke for her friends.
Twilight then made sure to tell them something. "I'm not sure how long it may take to recalibrate the mirror, so why don't you all relax in the meantime."
So they all did relax in the meantime, each of the Super Six going with a member of Twilight's friends and getting to know each other. In the case of Kara and Mary Marvel, they went with Applejack and Rainbow Dash to Applejack's farm where they all stood in the orchid where the apple trees grew, stretching for miles.
"You have this place on your earth?" Rainbow Dash asked Kara.
"Yeah, but it is run by a different family. No versions of your family, Applejack." Kara turned to Applejack.
"It might be weird for me if I ever went there." Applejack joked. "Maybe you might wanna show us that super-strength of yours?"
Grinning, Kara went over to an apple tree and put her hooves around it, shaking with only the smallest amount of strength and sent every apple on it falling to the ground.
Staring at this feat, Applejack yelled out a "Howee, that strength might give Big Mac a run for his money. Mary, how about I toss one of the apples at you and you show off what you can do?"
"Throw it!" Mary Marvel said with assurance.
Picking up an apple from the ground, Rainbow Dash tossed it at Mary Marvel and the red alicorn reacted with generating a lightning bolt from her hoof, tossing it at the apple, which exploded when struck by the lightning.
"That was awesome!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed and ran over to Mary Marvel, giving her a hoof-bump. "you zapped that thing into pieces"
"What else can you two do?" Applejack asked both them, both mares smiled in response.
Meanwhile, Dinah and Barbara were with Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy at the animal sanctuary which Fluttershy had built to care for a variety of animals in all shapes and sizes. Following a path was a stream where aquatic animals swam in as part of their characteristics. Looking from a bridge over the stream, Barbara stared at the fish swimming in it.
"Is that a bear relaxing on a hammock?" Dinah asked about the sleeping brown bear, resting on a blonde hammock held by strings attached to two trees.
"Yes. Doesn't he look so happy?" Fluttershy smiled and waved at the bear.
"I also see some snakes on the rocks over there." Dinah, staring at a cliff where three snakes slithered together, was concerned.
"Don't worry, they are friendly," Fluttershy reassured her.
Walking to a cave behind the waterfall where the stream originates from, Barbara found bats hanging from the ceiling of the cave. Like the nocturnal animals, Barbara noted how black her costume was compared to the bats.
Sneaking up on her, Pinkie Pie tapped her back. "Whatcha doing?" Pinkie Pie shouted.
This didn't go well for both ponies, because of the shouting, the bats screeched and flew down to the ponies, making them run out and screaming. Seeing the two of them run through the waterfall, Fluttershy rushed to stand between the bats and the ponies.
"They didn't mean to wake you, Pinkie just didn't think that would happen." Fluttershy calmed the fluttering bats, who turned around and flew back into the cave.
"Sorry for that, I didn't think about bats being in a cave." Pinkie Pie apologized. "Wait, why do you dress like a bat?"
"I read and realized that criminals are cowardly, bats frighten ponies, and I wanted to scare criminals," Barbara explained. "So I made my outfit and here we are."
"An outfit loaded with gadgets like boomerangs shaped like bats," Dinah said as she joined the three of them.
"So a Batarang, huh?" Pinkie Pie joked and nudged Barbara.
"That's what they are called, actually," Barbara confirmed.
"But I'm sure you don't use it to scare ponies that aren't criminals?" Fluttershy wondered, thinking it wouldn't be right.
Barbara shook her head sideways. "No, I would never do that. I'm not heartless."
"That's great to hear." Fluttershy sighed.
Meanwhile, at Rarity's boutique in Ponyville, Jessica Cruz sat on a chair in front of a mirror and stared at her reflection, seeing her hair cut to the end of her head. But it wasn't finished just yet, Rarity still getting some stray hairs cut with scissors.
"Almost done, Jessica. Just need to cut a little more." Rarity said before getting back to cutting and humming.
Smiling, Jessica looked at her reflection. "Not a problem, I'm impressed so far."
Getting the last five loose strands cut, Rarity put her scissors down and picked up her hairdryer, blowing away the hair on the sheet wrapped around Jessica. "What do you think?" Rarity asked the brown coated unicorn.
"I love it! Thank you, Rarity!" Jessica beamed with a face of pleasant surprise.
Walking downstairs was Rarity's little sister, Sweetie Belle, who walked over to Rarity as she watched Jessica admire her hair.
"Hey, Rarity, is it okay if I go with the girls to the treehouse?" The little unicorn asked.
Turning around, Rarity talked to her sister. "Sweetie Belle, I would like you to meet somepony. This is Jessica Cruz." Rarity turned the seat Jessica sat on the other way around.
"Hi." Jessica introduced herself.
"Hello. You have a nice ring there." Sweetie Belle pointed out the green ring on Jessica's hoof.
Realizing something, Jessica put her ringed hoof up. "Wait until you see this, then you will like it more." She used the ring to create a construct recreation of her cutie mark when she is in uniform.
"Oh!" Both white unicorns stared in awe.
"Is that a magic ring?" Sweetie Belle asked, amazed by the energy construct.
"In a way, yes." Jessica wanted to make it simple.
"I'm gonna have to tell Apple Bloom and Scootaloo!" Sweetie Belle ran out of the building.
Rarity sighed after she left, turning to Jessica. "Sorry about that, she gets excited."
"She's just a filly, it happens when you are one." Jessica was fine with Sweetie Belle's behavior.
After Jessica said that, Rarity looked at the ring, inspecting it to see its other features. "What else can it do?" Rarity asked the Green Lantern.
"How about this?" Jessica used only the power of thought to create constructs from her ring, anything ranging from dresses to life-size models of ponies. Which the form of Rarity, who looked back at the real one.
"Incredible!" Rarity stared at her copy, an exact replica with only the slight difference of being green. "It is a perfect replica of me!"
"Oh, this ring does plenty of things if I have the willpower to do it." Jessica made the construct move forward.
Later, at the apple farm, Rainbow Dash and Applejack watched with excitement as they threw whatever sort of junk they could find at Mary Marvel and Kara, who used either heat vision and lightning to cut or blast them. In the case of a rusted wheel, it was sent spinning to them as it was thrown, Mary Marvel blasting it with a lightning bolt from her right hoof and it was sent flying away from where the four of them were.
"Sorry about that!" Mary Marvel shouted to the ponies on the ground.
"Don't worry, we can get it back!" Rainbow Dash shouted back to her.
"Now, we just need to start searching for the wheel." Applejack said to the others.
"Found it!" Kara pointed in one direction.
"How did you..." Applejack was about to ask.
"I can see through things and also look for them miles away. Looks like it landed next to a treehouse." Kara scanned with her enhanced vision.
Knowing where the treehouse is, Applejack led them to it, finding it right in front of the stairs. Looking around the wheel were three young fillies, Scootaloo, Apple Bloom, and Sweetie Belle, all who must've run out of the treehouse when the wheel landed.
Seeing her older sister walking to her and her friends, Apple Bloom looked up to her. "Applejack, did you do something to get the wheel here?"
"Yeah, that was my bad," Mary Marvel informed the earth pony filly.
Seeing Mary Marvel standing next to Rainbow Dash, Scootaloo noticed the horn and wings. "Is she an..."
"Yes." All four adults answered.
"I'm not a princess. My pegasus friend, several others, and I are from another world that is nearly like yours but with a lot of differences." Mary Marvel gave a quick explanation. "We got stuck here and waiting on Princess Twilight to find a way to get us home."
"Cool!" Scootaloo expressed her awe. "So do you have us on your world?"
"We have two fillies and a colt doing the same thing you three have already done," Kara recalled hearing about the Cutie Mark Titans from Diana. "Applejack and Rainbow Dash told us you all of you worked hard to earn your marks."
"Yeah, we did work hard and had to go through to a lot of stuff to get our marks." Sweetie Belle remembered all the activities they did and failed at in their attempts to earn their cutie marks.
"But it was all worth it." Apple Bloom said to the visitors from another world. "I hope the Crusaders in your world find theirs."
"Thanks, I bet my brother would to hear that." Mary Marvel was thankful for the fillies and their words.
But Kara caught on to something Mary Marvel had said. "Your brother? One of the Titans mentioned Freddy has a sister named Mary Champion."
Struggling for words, Mary Marvel couldn't think of what to say. "Well... you see..."
"Are you his sister?" Kara asked her friend. "But you look a little older than what I have heard."
"I'm confused here, what is going on?" Rainbow Dash questioned the two ponies.
"Maybe we should get the others and head back to the castle. Then I will answer you." Mary Marvel said, afraid of what may come later.
Meanwhile, back at the Castle of Friendship, two alicorns, two unicorns, and a dragon were in the library as two of the ponies worked on the mirror. The two working on it were Twilight and Starlight as they worked with the power converters around the mirror and used their magic to add in the hair sample jars where the Super Six would place strands of hair into it. While at a table, Diana and Trixie swapping stories to each other.
"You fought an Ursa Minor too?" Trixie was shocked at hearing the same situation.
Diana giggled at Trixie's reaction. "There was this pony who says he is from the future and thought him fighting an Ursa Major would earn him recognition. Instead, all that happened was that the Ursa Minor attacked Ponyville."
"Where have I heard that before?" Twilight asked while working, the pony magician blushed after the Princess of Friendship asked.
"Trixie is still sorry!" Trixie defended herself.
"We know you are, Trixie." Starlight said while connecting two tubes to each other.
Drawing attention back to herself, Diana continued her story. "But this stallion, Booster Gold, was able to come with a solution and got the beast to calm down, then Jessica got it back into the Everfree Forest."
Getting the jar fully connected to the mirror, Twilight and Starlight watched the mirror glow as it honed onto the frequency of the reflective wall that brought the Super Six to their world, it just needed DNA to further hone in and send the six ponies home.
"We are almost done here, we just need hair samples from all of you." Twilight turned to Diana, who listened to her.
Using her horn, Starlight levitated a pair of scissors from the bathroom and into the library, putting it close to Diana's mane and cutting a single strand of hair, and finally placing it in the jar.
"One down, five more to go." Starlight declared.
"We just need the rest of your friends here, Diana." Twilight turned to the Amazon alicorn.
Hearing footsteps from outside the library, the four ponies in the room saw the 10 ponies who had left the castle had now returned to it.
"Wow, that was convenient." Spike had stated.
Seeing Mary Marvel looked unsettled caused Diana to look concerned. "What is wrong, Mary?"
"She has explaining to do." Kara stood next to Mary Marvel. "When we met Applejack and Rarity's sisters, we were talking about the Cutie Mark Titans back on our world and she mentioned her brother was on it."
"Yeah, so?" Dinah asked while standing next to Fluttershy.
"Well, when I went flying with Donna Troy after she trained with Diana, she mentioned another filly named Mary Champion in her class." Kara continued. "So I put two and two together, figuring out that both Marys are the same pony."
Out of all of the confused ponies about this was Rainbow Dash. "Wait, you said a filly, but Mary is a grown mare."
"Maybe this will explain things." Mary Marvel said before walking to an empty section where the mirror isn't standing before stopping and turned around to look at her friends. "Shazam!"
Out of nowhere, a yellow bolt appeared inside the room and struck Mary Marvel where she stood, the flash of lightning causing the other ponies and Spike to cover their eyes until the light died down. When they could see again, the sight before was most surprising to them. In front of them was a small red-coated filly with a brown mane and tail resembling Mary Marvel's, brown eyes, lack of wings and a horn, no white cape with gold edges, and no lightning bolt on her chest and flank.
"Mary?" The five members of the Super Six asked the filly.
"This is the real me, I'm Mary Champion." The filly responded.
"H... how did this happen?" Twilight asked as her and her friends were stunned as well.
"One day, I was helping my brother deal with some bullies, I ran from them until I found an unlocked door and opened it to walk right through to hide. When I closed it and turned around, I found myself in some sort of stone castle filled with a bunch of old treasures and came to a throne room where an old wizard sat on a throne. He told me that I had compassion in my heart that will aid in saving in Equestria from bad things and he would grant me incredible powers when touched his staff and said his name. Thinking I could trust him and I could save a lot of ponies with these powers, I accepted his offer. I said his name and I look like what you see me when I'm fighting alongside you." Mary Champion explained to everypony in the room.
The one who reacted with visible anger was Diana, who got up from the cushion she was on and walked to the filly. "You mean to tell us that ever since we met, we've been talking a filly into battle and we didn't have a clue about it? You know you could get hurt in battle and you still join in?"
"If you haven't noticed, Diana, I can still defend myself and I can't be hurt that easily." Mary Champion defended herself.
"What if you said the name of this wizard and you turned back to your true form in the middle of battle? Our enemies will grab you and they will kill you." Diana angerly tried to make her point. "As soon as we get back home, we are putting you off the team and we will find the wizard to ask him to remove your powers."
With tears leaking from her eyes, Mary Champion ran past ponies standing at the doorway and stormed off, crying from what had just occurred. While everypony else looked on.
"Mary, wait!" Supermare said, running to chase Mary Champion until she reached the doors to the outside, which was left open by Mary Champion and she was nowhere in sight.
Heading back to the library, Supermare sat with everypony else as they thought over this revelation. Sitting next to each other was Diana and Twilight, both ponies talking to each other.
"I can't believe she lied to us," Diana said to Twilight. "I trust her with my life and she kept something from all of us."
"What if she kept her true identity secret for the reason of thinking you five wouldn't want to be friends with a filly." Starlight theorized and everypony looked to her.
"That isn't true, we wouldn't mind being friends with fillies or colts." Diana protested. "I just don't feel comfortable with taking one into battle where he or she might get hurt."
Remembering past events, Barbara spoke up from the table she sat at. "But we have seen her handle herself in a fight and she is very good at it."
"From what she told us while at the farm, she mentioned taking down a mindreading pony and stopping her from reading her mind." Rainbow Dash added in.
"While I'm not much of a fighter, I can tell she is a capable one," Rarity added in, as well.
"I think of the same thing," Fluttershy said to Diana.
"Her magic body can certainly take a lot of hits." Pinkie Pie knew since she did accidentally drop the Super Six's suitcase on Mary Champion and there wasn't even a bruise.
"What we are trying to say, sugarcube, is that Mary can handle herself in a fight, but maybe she loves doing it with her friends." Applejack hoped that would convince Diana.
Diana thought over what they all said and came to a realization. "Sweet Celestia, you're all right! She may be a filly, but she is a warrior through and through."
"I'll agree to that." Black Canary said, the rest of the Super Six nodding with her.
"We gotta find her now." Diana declared. "Everypony should split up into groups and search all of Ponyville for her."
"You got it." Twilight agreed and assured her.
So they went to search for Mary Champion, looking through every corner, building, and the edge of Ponyville during the nighttime. While everypony else was having trouble searching for the young filly, Kara and Starlight, both in the air as Starlight used her magic to float, found her underneath a tree, still crying from earlier.
"Get the others over here." Kara ordered Starlight, who teleported after the order was given. Flying down to the tree, Kara saw Mary Champion was still a filly. "Hey, Mary."
Looking up at her pegasus friend, Mary Champion didn't look surprised she was found. "I knew that you would find me, Kara. You do have your x-ray vision after all."
"In a few moments, the others will be here. We just want to talk about earlier." Kara explained herself.
After waiting for a full minute, Starlight and Twilight arrived with the teleported ponies, the members of the Super Six walking forward to Mary Champion and Kara.
"Mary, I'm glad to see you are okay," Jessica said with gladness in her voice.
"I'm sorry I made you feel unwanted, Mary." Diana started to apologize. "I was afraid that because you are a filly, you would get hurt much more easily and I couldn't the idea of a filly being hurt, especially if she is my friend."
"You are a great fighter as well as a hero, and you have proven that in the amount of time we have known each other." Dinah gave compliments.
"You are a smart filly when it comes to figuring out many situations you face." Barbara pointed out.
"There is also the fact that the wizard is right about you having compassion in your heart as demonstrated when you saved those drowning animals." Kara reminisced the sight of Mary in her adult form saving a bear from falling to its death.
"In conclusion, you are our friend and we shouldn't doubt you because you are younger than us," Diana said before a question came up. "How old are you?"
Wiping away tears, Mary Champion answered. "I'm 11 years old." After she answered, Mary Champion hugged Diana, who returned the favor by hugging her too, the other four joining in.
While this was occurring, Twilight and the rest of her friends, Starlight, Trixie, and Spike included, watched this event occur. When Pinkie Pie looked like she could cry at this happy moment, Rarity passed her a tissue with magic.
"Looks like another friendship is solved." Starlight whispered to Twilight, who giggled as quietly as she could.
Later, everypony had returned to the castle's library, where Rarity used her magic to control a pair of scissors to cut Mary hair while she was still in her true form, Dinah, and Barbara. But in the case of Kara, she used a mirror to reflect a beam of heat vision off it and to cut a single strand of hair off, which Rarity collected and placed it with the other hair samples into the jar.
Standing in front of the mirror, Twilight addressed the Super Six. "Now that the hair samples are in the jar, the mirror should be able to take you home safe and sound." Twilight informed the six superheroes, who all looked eager to get home.
"I think I speak for all of us when I say thank you, Twilight," Diana said, carrying the suitcase their costumes and weapons inside of it.
"We really couldn't have done it without your help," Dinah said to the Princess of Friendship.
Poking Kara was Pinkie Pie as she stood next to Rainbow Dash, Pinkie holding a box and giving it to her. "Just a little gift before you leave, it is full of yummy cupcakes."
"Thank you, Pinkie," Kara said, licking her lips as she thought of the treats.
A reminder buzzing in Twilight's head, she used her magic to pick up a journal with her cutie mark on it, giving it to Diana. "I almost forgot about this. It's a magic journal that allows us to send messages to each other whenever we want to talk. But if there is an emergency you feel like you need our help with, then send me a message."
"I'll make sure to not be irresponsible with it." Diana giggled. "I'm glad to get to know all of you and I hope we can meet again sometime."
Thinking the moment needed it, everypony and the dragon got into a massive group hug that lasted for 25 seconds. The members of the Super Six getting out of it and walking into the mirror, absorbing them completely, and ending with Diana, who turned around and waved to the newfound friends from another world, finally stepping into the mirror and vanishing from view.
"I think they are gonna have a lot to look forward to Twilight. A lot of nasty stuff, but a lot of good too." Applejack said after the Super Six left.
"They have each other for help and they look like ponies who could handle anything." Twilight smiled, her friends joining her as well.
Traveling through the same tunnel from earlier, the Super Six walked out of the crystal wall in the cave and found their Princess Celestia and Steve Trevor, Diana's roommate, waiting for them.
"Diana!" Princess Celestia and Steve both said at the same time.
"Steve!" Diana ran up to her roommate and hugged him.
"I ordered him to come here when I found you weren't here, which I figured was because you fell in." Princess Celestia informed Diana and the rest of the Super Six. She then noticed Mary in her filly form. "Who is this little one?"
"This is Mary Marvel, what she really looks like," Barbara told Celestia and Steve, further going into what Mary had explained to them from earlier.
"I had suspected a wizard was involved in all of this. Care to tell me which wizard?" Princess Celestia asked the red filly.
"Shazam." Mary Champion said before she was struck by another bolt of lightning and turned into her Mary Marvel form, looking a little embarrassed she did so. "Oops."
In response to all of this, everypony in the cave laughed, Mary Marvel joining them as well.
Author's Note
I'm so happy I got this crossover finished just a couple days before September, it still gives me enough time to write a Nightmare Night storyline coming in October that I have been dying to write for some time.
While I'm writing that story, I'll be writing a short one-shot featuring two characters of my own creation because I want to test myself on writing a romantic comedy.
But when it does come to the Super Six for next time, it will be Wonder Mare's Nightmare Night in Ponyville, and her friends want to make special for her like it was for them as fillies.
