Back at Canterlot High, Laserbeak appeared and stealthily watched over the Rainboom practicing some music with their band set, and as they were finished their ponytails, wings and ears magically disappeared.

Back on the Nemesis, the Decepticons watched from Laserbeak’s point of view. “Did you see that?!” Barricade asked. “I sure did!” Brawl replied. “We should attack that pathetic Earthling academy building and take their energy from within!” Lugnut hollered. “YOU IDIOT! DO YOU WANT TO GET CAUGHT AND CAPTURED BY THE AUTOBOTS?!” Blitzwing asked in his angry face, before he switched to his crazy face. “Hahahahaha! But I’d love to see them do it again!”

“Ah, zip it, Blitzwing! We don’t have time for this,” Onslaught commented. “But their energy powers might be useful…” Blitzwing commented, but with his normal face.

“You got that right,” Blast-Off agreed. “Too bad we’ll have trouble finding the Allspark or the Autobots more than just spying on some magical flesh creatures,” Vortex commented.

“Do not fret, fellow comrades. Due to Soundwave’s efforts, we’ll soon reclaim what is rightfully ours!” Starscream spoke.

“Uhh, Starscream, not everyone’s gonna buy it,” Breakdown commented.

Back at Canterlot High, the Rainbooms were putting their musical equipment away.

“I hope the Friendship Games have a music competition, because we would totally rock it!” Rainbow Dash said, playing some chord.

“Um, we're supposed to keep magic out of the Friendship Games, remember?” Sunset asked in reminder, until Rainbow Dash scoffed.

Rarity was placing some blush powder on her cheeks, “Easier said than done, darling. I'm sure in Equestria, magic does whatever you want. But...”

“This isn't Equestria,” Sunset finished for Rarity. “Well, when it comes to magic, I'm sure you'll figure it out,” Applejack said.

“Magic? Equestria?” Starscream asked, then he thought to himself. ‘This could lead us to something useful, and we’ll use their so-called magical cosmic energy to lead us to the Energon so we can find it and use its power to crush the Autobots forever, and I will lead the Decepticons to victory!’

“And while Sunset works on keeping the magic out of the games, I've been working on what to put in!” Rarity giggled.

“Rarity, what'd you go an' do?” Applejack asked.

“Well, I had a little time on my hands, and since we don't know what the Friendship Games' events are, I made a few options for uniforms!” Rarity explained, showing them the outfits she made.

“You really didn't have to do that,” Rainbow Dash said as she blushed while wearing a soccer uniform.

“I know,” Rarity said feeling flattered.

Applejack then held some outfits on two hangers, “No. You really didn't have to.”

“I know!” Rarity giggled.


Outside the school, the bus for Crystal Prep arrived, and Principal Celestia was talking with Principal Cinch, “Vice Principal Luna can help your students get settled if you'd like me to show you around, Principal Cinch. There have been quite a few changes since your last visit.”

“Oh, yes, Principal Celestia. I'm sure that would be fascinating,” Principal Cinch replied.

Meanwhile, Vice Principal Luna was hugging Dean Cadance with happiness, “Oh, it's always such a pleasure to see you, Dean Cadance. Even if it means another defeat.” Dean Cadance smiled softly, “Thank you, Vice Principal Luna, but I hear it's not going to be so easy this time.”

Sci-Twi walked off the bus, but Indigo Zap shoved her as she passed by, “Comin' through!” Sci-Twi then landed on Sunny Flare.

Sunny Flare looked at her sternly, “Seriously?”

“Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to,” Sci-Twi apologetically told Sunny Flare who got up, but groaned as Sunny Flare didn’t accept her apology, until she got up and turned to Sour Sweet. “Oh, sorry. Why don't yougo ahead?”

Sour Sweet then commented sweetly, “You are such a sweetie!” until she sourly hushed her next comment with a hiss, “I am watching you!”

There was rock music on Lemon Zest’s headphones again, “Ahh! Yeah!” She then made rocking out sounds.

Sugarcoat then came out the bus last, “You are kinda being a doormat right now.”

Sci-Twi’s device suddenly hummed as it got a signal, and then she went to investigate.

Sweetie Drops and Lyra Heartstrings saw Sci-Twi walking inside, “Hi, Twilight.”

Sci-Twi then entered the school and continued her search.

“Hey, Twilight!”

“Hi, Twilight.”

“Hi, Twilight.”

“Hey, you. Lookin' good.”

“Um, hi,” Sci-Twi replied.

“Hey, what's happenin'?”

“Really nice to see you.”

“Twilight, how ya doin'?”

“Twilight, yo! *clicks tongue*”

Sci-Twi then felt confused, “Hi. Hello. Uh, good.” She then bumped into Flash Sentry as her glasses fell off.

“Twilight? I almost didn't recognize you. When did you start wearin' glasses?” Flash asked.

“Um, like, since forever,” Sci-Twi replied.

“Oh, so how long are you here for?” Flash asked.

“Just for the Friendship Games,” Sci-Twi replied.

Flash then helped Sci-Twi with her glasses, “Right. Of course. We'll totally win with you here.” Sci-Twi looked at Flash until her device started beeping, “Uh, I gotta go.”

Flash looked confused after seeing Sci-Twi leave, “Uh, okay. Bye? Aw.”

Back in the band room, Rarity checked to see if the outfits fit the others, but Applejack was confused, “Uh, Rarity, these outfits are great, but why would you put so much time and effort into clothes we might not even wear? You're gonna exhaust yourself before the games even start.”

“Oh, pff. Kch. Fff. Ts!” Rarity scoffed. “Don't be silly, darling! Putting effort into clothes is what I live for, and spending time on my friends fills me with energy!”

The Rainbooms had amazed reactions as Rarity floated with a purple magical aura, and grew her pony ears and ponytail.

“And magic, too, I guess,” Sunset commented.

Sci-Twi’s device continued beeping, until it started to drain all of Rarity’s magic, and making her feel exhausted.

The Decepticons were in shock and so were the Autobots.

Rarity somehow felt she was out of breath, “Actually, Applejack, now that you mention it, I suppose I coulduse a tiny break.” She then fainted as Applejack caught her. “I told you.”

The door opened as Sci-Twi entered, leaving the Rainbooms amazed, “Twilight?!”

Sci-Twi was confused, “Uh, yes?”

“Well, I'll be. You shoulda told us you were comin',” Applejack said, as Sunset felt relieved.

“Darling, those glasses. What are you wearing? It's so... severe,” Rarity asked.

“My uniform?” Sci-Twi replied.

“Your uniform for what?” Fluttershy asked,

Sci-Twi then replied, but still felt confused, “For... Crystal Prep. But why does everyone at this school know who I am?”

“Did you just say "Crystal Prep"?” Rainbow Dash asked.

Spike barked as he popped out of the bag.

“Spike!” Fluttershy and Rarity said as they were about to pet him.

Sci-Twi gasped and jerked herself backwards, “You know my dog's name, too?”

Meanwhile, Principal Celestia gave Principal Cinch the tour, “And our music program has especially taken off.” She then gasped after seeing Sci-Twi, “Twilight?” Sci-Twi grunted, “This is getting ridiculous!”

“I must apologize for the curiosity of my prized student,” Principal Cinch sympathetically commented, after walking over to Sci-Twi.

Your student?” Principal Celestia asked.

“Correct. As you can see, the smart ones are always curious,” Principal Cinch replied. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I'll return her to check in with the rest of her classmates. Come along, Twilight.” She then walked with Sci-Twi to escort her out the school.

Principal Celestia was now confused, “I didn't know Twilight had a twin sister.”

“She doesn't! That Twilight is obviously the Twilight from this world since it couldn't possibly be the Twilight from the pony world since the Twilight from the pony world doesn't go to Crystal Prep or wear glasses,” Pinkie Pie said in a hyperactive explanation.

Principal Celestia was about to reply, but she suddenly thought, “Never mind.” She then walked away.


Sci-Twi then started explaining what she was doing to Principal Cinch, “I'm sorry, Principal Cinch. I was just following these strange readings. Actually, they led me to those girls and—”

Principal Cinch then cut her off, “Twilight, what you do in your free time is of little interest to me, but while you're here, I... all of Crystal Prep, in fact, require your complete focus.”

“But why does everyone at this school seem to know me?” Sci-Twi asked.

“Perhaps they're trying to confuse you. Perhaps they're trying to lure you away,” Principal Cinch replied.

“It didn't feel like anyone was trying to lure me,” Sci-Twi said.

“I don't know what they're planning, but I guarantee, it isn't to help us win,” Principal Cinch answered and motioned Sci-Twi to go with her classmates.

Meanwhile, Optimus Prime, along with Bumblebee, Windblade and Bulkhead were watching from behind the forest.

“This is getting interesting by the minute,” Optimus pondered. “Optimus, do you really think six human girls can do anything to us?” Windblade asked. “I’ve seen the behavior on that ‘Cinch’ creature. She almost sounded deceiving like a Decepticon.”

“Patience, Windblade. We’ll get into details, but I think they might be the answer to something else,” Optimus said.

Bumblebee asked what it was in bleep.

“I do not know, old friend. For now, we continue the recon, but be on watch in case any of the Decepticons are out here watching,” Optimus said, as he transformed into vehicle mode, until he heard a radio call from Ratchet. “Optimus, Bumblebee’s awake, but was badly damaged. You better come look.

“I’m on my way, Ratchet,” Optimus said, as he drove off back to base. “You two, keep watch and report to me what you find.”


In the hallway, the Rainbooms were disappointed about their reaction with Sci-Twi. “I can't believe our world's Twilight goes to Crystal Prep!” Rarity said.

“You're saying that Twilight's gonna play against us? Not a chance! She'd never do that!” Rainbow Dash commented.

Our Twilight wouldn't,” Fluttershy commented.

Sunset Shimmer then spoke angrily, “Our Twilight is a princess in Equestria and an expert in friendship magic! And if she was here, we'd have already figured out why magic is randomly popping up during pep rallies and costume changes.” The other 5 felt concerned about Sunset, until she took a deep breath, and answered, “Sorry. I'm just frustrated that I haven't heard back from her.”

“She's a princess in Equestria. Probably got problems of her own to deal with,” Applejack said.

“We certainly can't expect her to drop everything and pop through the portal whenever. Especially if it's to deal with something as minor as a few random pony-ups,” Rarity said.

“But they aren't minor! Magic came into this world when I stole Twilight's crown. It's taken a lot for me to earn everyone's trust. If we have to forfeit the games because I can't think of a way to keep it under control...” Sunset then leaned against the locker.

“Oh, Sunset, I'm sure you'll be able to figure things out,” Fluttershy said sweetly.

“You're the one who helped us understand what was goin' on with the sirens. Remember?” Applejack asked.

“I guess. But Twilight was the one who really figured out what we needed to defeat them,” Sunset said.

“But don't you remember, darling? What we needed to defeat them was you,” Rarity said, as she fixed the bang on Sunset’s hair.

Sunset sighed with a soft smile, “All right.”

They all cheered for her enthusiasm, and proud to see her happy again.

“Come on, guys! Let's see if we can find any info about the events and come up with a strategy,” Rainbow Dash commented, as 5 of them minus Sunset left, while the red/yellow haired girl stood there thinking. “You comin', Sunset?”

“I'll... catch up with you guys in a bit,” Sunset said, and then after Rainbow Dash gave her a thumbs up, Sunset went outside towards the portal with her journal.

She sighed as she saw nothing was written in her journal, “Still no reply.”

Sci-Twi’s device was humming again, but it was pointing at the statue.

“Maybe there's another way I could reach her,” Sunset said, until her hand was caught in the magical aura draining from the statue and her body. “Hey, let go!”

Sci-Twi and Sunset both screamed after the device stopped draining all that magic.

Sunset got up and looked down at Sci-Twi, “What did you do?!” Sco-Twi felt nervously shy about what she had done.

“Twilight, you have to check in with the others,” Dean Cadance said, as Sci-Twi went over with her classmates.

The Decepticons somehow got evidence of Sci-Twi’s device. “Laserbeak, return immediately,” Soundwave commanded, and then Laserbeak flew back to the Nemesis making a cawing noise.

Sunset then got up, and as she touched the statue, it was only solid marble quartz and concrete, “Where's the portal?” She grunted while trying to open it up, but had no luck. The portal was gone! “Where's the portal?!”
