Prologue: Through Generations
"Urgh... my head..." Twilight groaned. The last thing she remembered was being in Canterlot before a flash of a bright, white light blinded her. She looked around, she was in a dark area.
"Hello? Hello! Is... is anyone here?" She called out.
"Twilight?" She heard a voice call out, she recognized the voice, it was her friend, Rarity. "Twilight, is that you?"
"Rarity? Is that really you?" Twilight asked.
"Yes, it is." Rarity responded, "Where are we?"
"I... I don't know, but if you're here, then our other friends must be too!" Twilight said, connecting the dots. "Applejack?! Rainbow Dash?! Pinkie Pie?! Fluttershy?! Spike?! Starlight Glimmer?!" She called out, it was a few seconds before another voice spoke up.
"Twilight? What's happening? Where am ah?" She heard a southern drawl, one that could only belong to Applejack.
"Where are we?" She heard another voice ask, one that was Rainbow's. "And why is it so dark?"
"Ooh! Ooh! Is this a surprise party?" She heard a giggly voice ask.
"Girls? Where are you all? It's so... so dark!" A soft voice asked. "Can't you use your magic to at least brighten it up?"
Twilight mentally groaned, why didn't she think of that? She lit up her horn, and the surrounding brightened up, she looked around and saw her friends. "Girls!"
"Twilight!" The Mane Six rushed together in a group hug, not wanting to let go.
"Where are we?" Rarity asked. "And what is this place?"
Twilight looked around, and saw a small switch. She flipped it, and some lights lit up. "Fascinating," She muttered.
"What is this place?" Rainbow asked, she saw a big screen and some pillows on the ground. "And, what's that big black rectangle?"
"Oh, I know that! That's a "TV", I saw a lot of those in human world!" Twilight said. "Though, if we were in the human world, we wouldn't be ponies..."
Suddenly, the white outline of a small dragon appeared, and out came Spike, knocked out. "Spike!" Twilight said, rushing over to him.
"Is he alright?" Rarity asked.
Twilight inspected Spike before sighing, "He's knocked out, but who would do this?"
"Uh... Twilight? Something's happening!" Fluttershy said. She pointed to the faint outlines of two ponies.
"New friends? Or maybe it's an old one!" Pinkie said. The ponies revealed to be Starlight Glimmer and Trixie, both fainted. "Starlight? Trixie?"
"Oh, dear." Applejack muttered. Not too long after, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna showed up, both knocked out.
"Now who could've done this? The princesses!?" Applejack said.
"That would be me!" The group turned around and saw an indigo alicorn, smiling brightly. "Okay, look, I know it looks bad..."
"Bad?! You kidnapped us!" Rainbow angrily said.
"And it was for a good reason." The indigo alicorn replied, rather calmly. "Let me introduce myself, I am Screeenplay, alicorn of vision."
Twilight walked up to Screenplay, "I am Twilight Sparkle, princess of-"
"-Friendship, yes, I know. I know everything about you all!" Screenplay said. "I kind of watch the timeline, make sure nothing changes."
"Shouldn't you be doin' your job, then?" Applejack said. "Why bring us here?"
Screenplay sighed, "I've brought you all here to... react to your adventures! You won't be alone, you'll be reacting with the future generation of Elements. Along with people from the human realm, I'm sure Twilight has told you about that, right?"
"Okay, but then, why knock us out?" Twilight asked, gesturing to the knocked out creatures.
"Believe me, that was not my intent. The transportation temporarily knocks out the ponies - or creatures - that are being transported, well, most of the time." Screenplay explained. "Your friends should wake up soon, so in the meantime, why don't I give a short tour before I teleport the other two groups?"
"If we're gonna stay here, we might as well know the layout." Applejack said.
"Yes!" Screenplay said. "Okay, so this is the main area. This is where the most important ponies will watch," He pointed behind him, where there were three doors. "The middle one is where everycreature in your Equestria will watch, once we progress more, more creatures will come to the main area!"
"I'm assuming the other two are for the other groups?" Rarity said.
"Bingo!" Screenplay chucked. He lead them to a table, which only had three stacks of plates and glass cups. "This is the kitchen, where you'll get your food."
"Are you kidding me right now? There's nothing here!" Rainbow said.
He grabbed a plate with his magic, he closed his eyes when a slice of apple pie appeared on it. "Ta-da! Anything you think of will appear on the plate you're holding, same goes for the drinks."
"Facinating," Twilight said, grabbing one of the plates. "Anything?"
"Well, any food." Screenplay specified. He lead the group then to a door, he opened it, which revealed a hallway full of doors. "This is the main resting quarters, I've designed the room of the occupant to look exactly like the room in your houses. There are prints of cutie marks on the doors so you know which one's which."
"Cool!" Pinkie replied. She went into her room, and inside looked exactly like the one from Sugarcube Corner. "It's like I never left!"
"Now, then, if you'll follow me here." He lead them to a door with the symbol of a question mark. "This is the holo-world room, just say where you want to go, and it will transport you to a holographic version of that place. Just, be specifific."
Screenplay looked at the time, "Ah! Your friends should be waking up soon, I'll be going now. You'll be expecting some visitors,"
"Okay, so you mean to tell me, us and ponies from other dimensions are going to watch us?!" Trixie gawked.
"Yup, that's it!" Pinkie said. "Well, he did say that one of them would be a future Equestria!"
"So, there'll be a future me?" Trixie asked.
"I think this "Screenplay" meant a farther future, Trix." Starlight said. "Speaking of which, how do we know we can trust him?"
"He didn't seem evil when we talked to him," Twilight said. "I don't think he would hurt us, though, we still don't know his real intentions."
"What'dya mean? Bringing ponies to watch their adventures sound pretty reasonable, Twilight!" Pinkie said. "Besides, we get unlimited cake!"
"I agree with Pinkie Pie," Princess Celestia said, wiping a few cake crumbs off her face. "A pony who gives unlimited cake couldn't be evil."
Princess Luna rolled her eyes, "Sister, your cake addiction is getting out of hoof."
"When will the others get here?" Rainbow asked, munching on chips. "It's been what, fifteen minutes?"
"I agree, I wanna see myself on the screen." Spike said.
"Ack!" A voice said, the group turned to see Sunset Shimmer, and a few other ponies that looked strangely like the Mane 6. "Where am I? And why am I a pony again?"
"Sunset? Is that you?" Twilight asked.
"Princess Twilight!" Sunset smiled, getting up. "Do you know where we are?"
"Well, we're-" Twilight was cut off by a symphony of screams.
"I'm... I'm a pony?!" Human Rarity shrieked. "Sunset, is this what it's like in Equestria?!"
"Eh, you'll get used to it." Human Rainbow shrugged. "Me and Twilight already are, we're kinda pros at pony-ing."
The Human Twilight adjusted her glasses, unlike Princess Twilight, she was a plain unicorn. "Well, we were in Equestria for around an hour, I wouldn't say we're pros."
"My hair's so fluffy!" Human Pinkie noticed. "And is that another me!? I've always wanted another me!"
"Well... this is weird." Human Applejack said.
"Oh, my... I didn't think I would be a pony..." Human Fluttershy said.
Sunset faced Princess Twilight, "Do you know why we're here? The last thing I remember was a flash of light."
"And you weren't knocked out? Screenplay said that you would..." Twilight said.
"Who's Screenplay?" Sunset asked. "Wait, you knew about this?"
"What? No! When we arrived here, we were knocked out by the light, except, you're not?" Twilight asked. "Nevermind. Screenplay is an alicorn, and we've been teleported here to watch our adventures."
"Why?"
Twilight shrugged, "He never said why,"
"And... where is this alicorn?" Sunset asked.
"Well, he said that he would bring the future generation to watch with us as well." Twilight said. "He watches over the timeline, and apparently is able to go to any time he wants."
"Right, um, is there any way out?" Sunset asked.
Twilight sighed, "No. Nothing, but I don't think he'll harm us, so you have nothing to worry about. But, um, maybe you should help the others adjust."
Sunset nodded, "Of course."
"Oh, and by the way, I think CHS will be joining us as well. Because he transported everycreature in Equestria to join us too." Twilight said.
"What? But where are they?" Sunset looked around. "Are they in another room?"
"Yep, they're in the middle room behind us." Twilight said. Sunset looked behind her and saw three doors.
"One of them is Equestria, one is CHS, and the other is the Equestria of the future?" Sunset asked.
"I think, we haven't checked yet." Twilight responded.
"I'm gonna explore this place," Sunset said. She turned to her friends, who looked a little adjusted. "Guys? I'm gonna explore this place, wanna come?"
"Aw, yeah! There has to be something cool in here." Human Rainbow replied.
Pinkie was eating multiple slices of cake when a small note fell in front of her. "Huh? Ooh!" She picked up the note, "Hey, Twilight!"
Twilight walked over to the pink mare, who handed her a note. "I found this on the ground! It's for you!"
"Hey, Twilight, I'll be teleporting the last group in a few minutes, but uh, fair warning, you're like legends in their time, so... yeah! Good luck! P.S. Make sure to put your human versions in their rooms for a bit, we don't wanna overwhelm them."
Twilight sighed. "Sunset! Can you put your friends in the resting quarters?"
"Uh, sure?"
A few minutes later, eight creatures appeared in the room. Seven ponies, and one baby dragon. There was an orange mare, with golden translucent wings and a horn sprouting out from her, Twilight deduced that she must've been the leader. There was a white pegasus with a hot pink mane, a purple unicorn with a blue mane, a pink pegasus with a purple mane, a yellow stallion with a teal mane, a blue unicorn with a mane that was red, orange, and yellow, and a red stallion, with a blonde mane, and a teal baby dragon.
"Okay... so the note said that we're basically legends in their time, so we should go easy on them." Twilight advised.
The orange mare slowly stirred, before waking up. "Wha... huh? Where am I?" She looked around, and saw her friends, lying on the ground! She turned around and saw Twilight Sparkle, and her friends. "Who... who are you?" She asked.
She didn't know if she could trust them, but she had her alicorn form on. "We're friends, you can trust us." Twilight said. "I'm Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship, and technically, ruler of Equestria."
Her eyes widened. "Wait! You're Princess Twilight Sparkle!? Omigosh! This... this is so exciting! You're like, legends!" She squealed. "I'm Sunny Starscout! We got your message in the-" A purple tape covered her mouth, and she couldn't speak.
"Oops! Sorry about that." Screenplay said, flying down. "Let me explain everything."
A few minutes later, Sunny's other friends woke up, and Screenplay explained everything. The others had introduced themselves as Zipp Storm, Izzy Moonbow, Pipp Petals, Hitch Trailblazer, Misty Brightdawn, Sprout Cloverleaf, and Sparky. "So, wait, you're telling me. we're going to be watching Princess Twilight's adventures?!"
Screenplay nodded. "Our friends and family are in the other rooms behind us, correct?" Zipp asked, to which he nodded again. "Could we... see them?"
"Later, when we're done with the first two episodes." Screenplay said.
"Episodes?" Zipp asked. "What do you mean by episodes?"
"This is going to be in a show format, so there will be seasons, episodes, movies, and more." Screenplay said.
"Um, Screenplay?" Hitch asked.
"Yes?"
"You said this is the main room, where all of the main characters watch?" He didn't know if he liked being called a character, but he had no other words to describe. "So, why is Sprout here?"
Sprout looked down, "Ah, yes. You see, he is a vital part of your journey, and he deserves a chance of redemption. Being here should help him see that." Screenplay explained.
"But why? If he were with the other ponies in our Equestria, he would've still been able to watch it, right?" Hitch said.
"Yes, but being here should help him even more." Screenplay said. Hitch was about to retort but Sunny quickly spoke up.
"You said there were... duplicates of Twilight Sparkle and her friends? From another world, right? Where are they?" Sunny asked.
"In the resting quarters, so that you wouldn't have been overwhelmed." Screenplay said.
Sunny nodded. "But, how would we tell them apart?"
"Well, in their world, they are what is known as humans, we will be referring to them as "Human Rainbow", "Human Applejack", you get it. The only one exempted from this is their Twilight Sparkle, who will be called Sci-Twi, seeing that is what the fandom calls her..."
"Fandom?"
"Forget I said anything, we shouldn't break the fourth wall." Screenplay said.
"So, everyone from our Equestria will be watching us as well? From their waiting room?" Misty gulped.
"Don't worry, Misty! If you're scared of what they'll think of you, then just ignore it! That always works for me when I see hate comments." Pipp said.
"So, Mister Screenplay, you said something about a hologram of Equestia, can we go there?" Izzy asked.
"During the breaks we'll have." Screenplay said.
"Awesome!" Izzy said.
"Will we be able to talk while reacting?" Sunny asked.
"Yes, except one rule, no spoilers. If you spoil anything, that purple tape will cover your mouth." Screenplay said. "Besides that, you can say anything! Maybe not vulgarity, seeing as we'll be in the presence of a baby dragon."
Hitch nodded. "Agreed."
"So! If we'll get started..." He levitated a remote over to him, and opened the TV. "Does anyone have any questions?"
Everypony shook their heads while Sunset let her friends back into the main room. "Okay! So, let's start!" He pressed the episode: "Mare in the Moon", and it started playing.
Starlight looked at Sprout, who looked downcast. She moved over to him, and spoke up. "Hey, are you alright?" Starlight asked.
"I don't know..." Sprout muttered.
Author's Note
Yeah, I got bored, and I started watching people react to MLP on Youtube, which inspired me to do this! I'm sorry if some of these are out of character, this is just a small side-project while I'm working on my main story: The Mane 12 Adventures. This won't update as much as that story, but I'll try to do this as well!
For anyone here who knows me because of M12A, well, have fun reading! I promise the writing will get better in future chapters, I wrote this during the night.
