It was a bright sun shiny day and a beautiful clear night. The perfect night for watching the season finale of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. The show had a total of nine seasons with the ninth season being the last. So naturally, to us Bronies this is a part of history for us. So me and my friends a total of six of us, decided to have a party to watch the last season finale of the show. Oh and get this, the season nine finale occurred on my birthday and I was turning 31 this year. And what I wanted more than anything was a Magical talking Twilight Sparkle. I'm sorry, I mean Princess Twilight Sparkle.
Now I know what you're thinking, what is a 31 year old doing watching a TV show geared toward little kids? Hey, I say you're never too old for cartoons. I know some people that still watch Mickey Mouse in their 30's. So me liking My Little Pony is A OKAY!
Anyway, once we had got together and watched the last episodes of the season my friends and I decided to go out and do our next passion which was drag racing and sometimes racing away from the Cops. Every time we got pulled over for speeding it was because of racing. And as long as I can remember, all six of us wanted to ride a Motorcycle. So, as we grew up together, we finally got our Motorcycles. Each one a different color, but the same brand. My motorcycle was black, Shaun's motorcycle was red, Evan's motorcycle was orange, Gabriel's motorcycle was brown, Lacy's motorcycle was blue, and Sami's motorcycle was green. And what's my name? My name is Ashley, nice to meet you.
So, our helmets for our motorcycles had an intercom system on it so we could talk to each other. Halfway through the ride, I heard Shaun's voice over the intercom.
"Ashley guess what?" said Shaun
"What?" I said
"It's racing time!" said Shaun
"Let's take the back roads this time," I said "I don't feel like getting pulled over today."
"Good," Shaun said "I know where the Cops hide, so if I slow down, you slow down too. Okay?"
"Got it." I said.
So off we went. We were racing around the bin when we saw a strange sign in the middle of the road. We thought at first it was a road closed sign, but the sign was shimmering. And not like one of those light up signs, but it was really shimmering. Shaun parked his bike and walked up to the sign and looked at it in awe. He then put his hand on the sign and almost fell into the sign.
"Guys," said Shaun, "let's check this out!"
"Okay," said Lacy "I'm up for an adventure!"
Everyone then followed Shaun and one by one we all went into the sign and the next thing I knew, everything went black.
* * *
When I woke up, I had a really bad headache. I tried to sit up and look around, but I felt like a turtle lying on its back. As a matter of fact, I was lying on my side. I looked over at Lacy and could not believe my eyes! What I saw was a blue motorcycle but on Lacy. Suddenly, Lacy's motorcycle blinked it's headlights and started to speak.
"Um, guys," said Lacy "what's going on?"
"I don't know…" I said
I then tried to move my left arm and then realized something, we had all turned into our motorcycles!
"Lacy," I said "I can't stand up! Could you… Help me stand up?"
"Oh," said Lacy "sure…"
Lacy then moved slowly towards me and pushed me to an upright position. Once I was up, I looked around and tried to get my bearings. I could not believe my eyes, but it looked like we were in a swamp of some kind. And it looked like we were at a fork in the road.
One of the signs on the road read this: To Ponyville
The sign off to the right read this: To Canterlot
It occurred to me that we were not on earth, we were in Equestria!
"Guys," I said "I think we've died and gone to pony heaven! We're in Equestria!"
"You sure about that?" said Sami "We could be in the Florida Everglades for all we know and this is just one big prank."
Suddenly, as if on cue. Lacy shook, rattled and spun around in place like a dog chasing its tail.
"My Lacy sense tells me Ashley's right." said Lacy
"What?" said Shaun "How do you know?"
"Discord told me so." said Lacy
"Yeah," said Gabriel "and we're supposed to believe that because?"
"Don't know," said Lacy "you think what you want but I'm going to find Zecora."
"Why Zecora?" asked Evan
"Because," said Lacy "Zecora lives in this very swamp. As a matter of fact, this isn't really a swamp, it's the Everfree Forest."
"You mean the place where those Cockatrice live?" asked Shaun
Shaun shook and wobbled a bit as if trying to shake his head but couldn't.
"I thought Discord was reformed wasn't he?" asked Evan
"He was and still is," said Lacy "he's married to Flutter shy remember?"
"Oh yeah." said Evan
"So," said Lacy "let's go!"
"No way," said Sami "I'd rather go to Ponyville than work through this swamp. Why do we have to look for Zecora?"
"Because," said Lacy "Zecora's actually from Earth and she would know what we are."
"Oh…" said Sami, then she sighed "Let's go then."
* * *
It wasn't before too long that we arrived at a small little hut deep in the Ever free Forest. It was a cute little hut and it looked just like it did in the show. I gulped, but before I could say anything, Lacy went up Zecora's door and honked her horn.
"Lacy!" I growled
Just then, the door opened and there was Zecora.
"What do we have here?" said Zecroa "A bunch of machines from over there?"
"Hi there," said Lacy "my name is Lacy. And we are Motorcycles from Earth! We come in peace."
"I know what you are," said Zecora "you have traveled from afar."
"Um…" I said, not sure what was going to happen.
Soon after, we were telling Zecora about what happened to us.
"Seems like Discord is up to his old tricks." said Zecora "This makes me sick."
"You're telling me!" I said "It doesn't surprise me that Discord is behind this. I thought he was married to Fluttershy?"
"He is." said Zecora
"Maybe we should talk to Fluttershy and see if this is really Discord's doing." said Sami "Who knows, this could be a new enemy for all we know."
"Giving him the benefit of the doubt," said Zecora "is a good way to rule Discord out."
"Yep that's true." said Lacy
"So this is what you should do," said Zecora "go to Canter lot for Princess Twilight is the ruler of this lot."
"Sounds like a plan to me." I said "Zecora, can come with us?"
"Oh sure I can!" said Zecora "That way I can make sure Princess Twilight gives a Damn!"
At that comment, everyone gasped and Lacy laughed.
"What?" said Lacy "You didn't think ponies cussed? Well, in real life they do!"
"How'd you know that?" I said
"Lacy sense," said Lacy "Duh!"
"Well, let's get going okay?" I said
"Alright!" said everyone else
And just like the last episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, things were going to change.
There have been quite a few impressive historical sites that I have seen in my 31 years of life. And the one I'm looking at right now is a site to behold! It was Princess Twilight's castle! I mean the Castle was huge! And it was probably taller than the tallest skyscraper back on Earth. And get this, it was made of pure crystal! As I stood in awe of the Castle, Lacy was the first one to speak.
"Is it safe for us to go in there?" asked Lacy
"If you want," said Zecora "I can go talk to Princess Twilight in there, while you wait out here."
"What if someone sees us?" I said
"These Ponies have seen motorcycles before," said Zecora "as a matter of fact, I have one stored."
"Wow…" I said
Zecora then went into the castle and much of our wait happened without incident. Then, after what seemed like forever, Zecora came out with Princess Twilight.
"Hello there," said Princess Twilight "I understand we have quite the problem going on here. Please, come inside and I'll figure out what to do."
"Thanks Princess!" I said "I would bow but, motorcycles can't do that."
We then entered the castle, and waited for Princess Twilight to figure out a plan.
* * *
Discord paced back and forth in front of Fluttershy nervously eating a cucumber sandwich.
"What's wrong Discord?" said Fluttershy
"Oh nothing my dear." said Discord
"Remember we talked about this," said Fluttershy "if something is bothering you, you need to tell me so I can help you fix it."
"Okay," said Discord "well I may have pranked some people that are not from Equestria."
"Discord," said Fluttershy "what did you do?"
"I just used a spell that I learned from my Father to have a little fun." said Discord "I didn't mean for it to go this far."
"Discord," said Fluttershy "we talked about that too! Remember? No pranking people or ponies that are not from Equestria."
"So," said Discord "how do I fix it?"
"I don't know," said Fluttershy "that is for you to decide. What exactly did you do?"
After that comment, Discord proceeded to tell Fluttershy what he had done.
* * *
Princess Twilight sat in the Throne Room with the rest of the Main 6, while we waited outside. I didn't know it then but they were having a conversation about us. The conversation went something like this:
"So did Discord do this time?" asked Rainbow Dash
"I'm not sure," said Princess Twilight "but he's up to something again. And I want to know what."
"I know what," said Fluttershy "Discord said he pranked people from another planet called Earth. And we know where that is, you practically have to open up a portal to get back."
"What!" said Princess Twilight
"Yeah I know," said Fluttershy "I told Discord to stop that after we got married, but he doesn't listen to me."
"Wow…" said Rainbow Dash
"Now the question is," said Princess Twilight "how do we fix this?"
"We don't have to fix anything in my opinion!" said Applejack
"Yeah," said Pinkie Pie "we have Discord fix his mistake!"
"Indeed! I agree!" said Rarity
So after that conversation Princess Twilight knew that she had to open up the portal to get us back to Earth.
* * *
When Princess Twilight came out of the Throne Room we were greeted by the rest of the Main 6. Lacy totally freaked out when she saw Pinkie Pie.
"Holy shit!" said Lacy "It's Pinkie Pie!"
Then Lacy did the strangest thing for a motorcycle, she started bouncing up and down on both wheels.
"Talk about strange…" said Rainbow Dash
"Oh," said Fluttershy "it's adorable!"
"I'm not an 'it' I'm human!" I said
"What?" said Rainbow Dash
"Discord!" said Princess Twilight
Then, as if on cue, Discord appeared and smiled at the Main 6.
"I'm here!" said Discord "Boy it's nice to see you guys!"
"Don't play dumb with us Discord!" said Rainbow Dash "You turned them into motorcycles now you're gonna change them back!"
"Oh alright," said Discord "I'll see what I can do."
Discord then turned around and saw us. He rubbed his chin and then his face lite up and a light bulb appeared by his face.
"I know!" said Discord
Discord then snapped his fingers but instead of us turning back into humans nothing changed we were still regular motorcycles.
"Did it work?" said Gabriel
He opened his eyes and looked down. Gabriel then looked really disappointed.
"Aw man!" said Gabriel
"Oh my goodness," said Discord "it didn't work!"
"You're Damn right it didn't work!" I said
At this comment, the Main 6 gasped.
"Hello," I said "we're human! Humans know every cuss word in the book!"
Fluttershy laughed "Of course they do! We were just surprised that's all."
"Yeah," said Rainbow Dash "we've never seen motorcycles swear before. But, we have seen Humans swear all the time. And they all have a variety of vehicles but none of them talk. Except for the Autobots!"
"Rainbow Dash!" said Princess Twilight
"What?" said Rainbow Dash
"You're not supposed to tell them that," said Princess Twilight "that's classified information!"
"Oh…" said Rainbow Dash "What are we going to do?"
Princess Twilight then thought for a little bit and then came up with an idea.
"I know," said Princess Twilight "Zecora, call Optimus Prime right away! I need you to summon him to my castle asap!"
Zecora then smiled and said "Yes Princess…"
"Now we play the waiting game…" said Princess Twilight
* * *
Soon Optimus Prime was at Princess Twilight's castle. Optimus greeted Princess twilight with a bow.
"It's so good to see you again Optimus!" said Princess Twilight
"As to is so good to see you my Princess." said Optimus "How may I help you?"
"You know that village of Humans that's on the outskirts of Equestria?" said Princess Twilight
"Yes," said Optimus "what do you want me to do?"
"Take them to that village and talk to Mayor Dewmark about giving them a place to stay." said Princess Twilight
"Yes my Princess…" said Opitmus
So we went to the village and Optimus Prime had a long conversation with the Mayor. The Mayor then came out of the surrounding woods because Optimus Prime was not able to fit into the Mayor's office.
"Greetings Motorcycles!" said the Mayor
"Uh, we're Humans!" I said
"Yes, Yes sure you are," said the Mayor "now can you describe to me what you looked like before you were transformed into Motorcycles?"
So we described ourselves one by one and the Mayor seemed pretty pleased.
"Okay," said the Mayor "you stay here but not in one of the houses. I have a garage that you can stay in."
"Okay." I said
So then we went to the garage that Mayor let us stay in. When we got settled, Lacy started to cry.
"What's wrong Lacy?" I said
"We're not Human anymore!" cried Lacy
"Yes we are," said Shaun "we're just in a different form."
"I know," said Lacy "but it sucks to be stuck this way."
"Yeah." Evan agreed
Something was wrong and we had to fix it, we just had to!
