William and Schmidt help their friend John escort his sister Jackie and her friend Jacob to a My Little Pony convention then accidentally fall into Equestria.

Sombra needs warriors for his plan to retake the Crystal Empire. He only has a few loyal/brainwashed subjects after his last failure.

His current hideout/lair is becoming infested with these weird humans who keep popping up from a mirror he "acquired". Humans are useless to him. They are overly susceptible to magic.

With his dungeon getting crowded, he starts to wonder. What if they weren't humans anymore? Good thing for Sombra, the mirror wasn't the only thing he "acquired".

Warning: Contains forced changes into races of Equestria.

The old version is still posted because I like showing how stories evolve with further thought. It isn't necessary to read after reading the new version. I will remove the old version if requested.

This is Teapot Tales story number one.
This now has a sequel A Deer Named John.
The first set of side stories and a second main arc are planned.
A third main story arc and further linked-side stories are also being planned.
