2. The Avatars and The Elements

The Empresses and the Avatars had been discussing the daily taxes. "Ahm sure those of my "fellow kind" should have all their taxes increased." Applejack said, spitting at what she had been born as. She was one of the only few Earth Ponies that had been given rights, though, she hated her kind. They had no special talent, all they could was dig dirt, disgusting. "Yes, though, some of the Mud ponies have been discussing ideas of rebellion" Empress Luna, Queen of the Night, stated, her head looking at an area of Ponyville District 8, an area known as Mudopolis, the area where Mud ponies were allowed, unless they had work.

Just as Twilight was about to voice her own opinion, a loud humming noise and a ball of golden light appeared in the center of the room. Everypony covered their eyes with their hooves, but it was no use, as the light burst outward.

"Eurgh, where are we?" A voice, though in a kinder and, blegh, softer tone then that of, Lady Sparkle said. The 8 mares looked on, seeing exact duplicates of the Avatars.

"Who are you and why do you look like the Avatars?!" Empress Celestia demanded. "Princess!" Twilight said, running up to hug Celestia, before being thrown aside by one of Celestia's hooves. "How dare you, no matter how much you look like Lady Sparkle, try and show [love] to me!" Celestia said, fuming. "Where-where are we?" Rarity (the Prime one) said, looking around in fear. "You are in the Council Chambers of the Equestria Imperial Council." Empress Luna said, staring coldly at the Avatar-look-a-likes. "Imperial?! Equestria is a kingdom ruled by PRINCESS Celestia, who is fair and kind." Twilight said, looking at the banners.

"Your liege, I have brought in the prisoner." Commander Stong Hoof, the commander of DARKFIRE Sky Battlion 401, stated ,wheeling in a female Griffon, bound and gagged to a metal circle. "Excellent" Fluttershy said, before, using a Electro-Guantlet, a torture device, to burn off most of the Griffons fur, charring her skin. "Stop this at once!" Prime Fluttershy said, yelled at her doppelganger. "It seems our duplicates need some education on how OUR world works, shall we?" Governor Dash said, as she pressed a hidden button on her chair, and the 14 mares into a stark white room, void of all decoration, save a view screen.

"Now, let's see what contrasts we can find between our worlds" Lady Sparkle said, grinning, as she levitated a note pad and quill.

All of the Elements of Harmony gulped, as Empress Luna began the "interview"

3. A Little Lesson

"Now" Empress Luna "In you world, you are ruled by Princesses, myself and Celestia. Correct?" The Elements nodded. "In this world of yours, "Mud or Earth Ponies, Griffons, and Minotaurs have rights?" Luna said, staring at the 6 Elements. "You mean they don't here?" Rainbow asked, staring both the Pinkie Pies and Applejacks.

"Many Mud ponies, or Earth Ponies as you may know them, alongside the savage Griffons and the muttonheaded Minotaurs have become what they always should have, slaves." All of the Prime Elements gasped, as slavery had been outlawed centuries ago. "Oh right, diffent worlds an all, no matter." Empress Luna said.

"Lets continue"

[2 Hours, 44 Minutes, 17 seconds, and .5 nanonseconds later]

["And that is how Joystin Beaver is the worst singer in all of Equestria!" Pinkamina said, moving a white board away. "Any questions?" The Elements all shook their heads.

"Well, actually" Twilight began "EMPRESS Luna, if Nightmare Moon was destroyed, then how are you here? Weren't you two, you know, the same pony?" Empress Luna shook her head. "Not quite Twilight, yes. we did share the same body, Nightmare was a seperate entity from myself." Empress Luna said, trimming her hoof with a hoof-file. "Ah, thank you." Twilight said. "Now, we have to find out why and how you got here." Empress Celestia said, having closed the last book on trans-dimensional travel. "Well, I was practicing on a travel spell, able to teleport a pony farther than normal teleportation, thought I guess I should'nt have done it inside the TARDIS." Twilight said, a faint blush coming to her cheeks, alongside a sheepish smile. "OR, It could be because the Lord Author, the one who created this fanfic, made it so!" Pinkie Pie and Pinkamina stated, each high-hoofing the other not soon afterward. "Anyhoof, I guess we could see what the....urm, Equestria of this dimension is like! We could never get an oppertunity like this again!" Twilight Sparkle said, picking up a quill and notepad, Lady Sparkle following suit, saying "And I can't wait to learn about yours!" The double-duo said. Everpony in the room facehoofed.

"Well, we better get going. And that WASNT a statement, it was an order." Empress Celestia said. "Come along, Lady Sparkle." she said, turning to Sparkle. "Yes, mistress."

They took off in a zepplin, to see the Mirror Ponyville.]

4. Welcome to Ponyville

As they descended into Ponyville District 0, the center of Ponyville District 1-14. the Elements were amazed at the city before them. The city was FAR different from their Ponyville. If you could see the city, you would see a blend of Steampunk and Cyberpunk. "This is incredible!" Pinkie Pie said, staring at the buildings, rising higher than even the Equestrian State Building. "I know, the fashion here is so, avant garde." Rarity aid, eyeing the clothing some of the ponies were wearing, which resembled Unicorian (Victorain) era attire, with a touch of modern flare. Suddenly, a large blast eminated from nearby. "Oh man, Pinkie did you have beans for breakfeast?" Rainbow Dash said, staring at the cloud of smoke. "No, that's just the Ponyville Resistance, a group of slaves, don't worry, DARKFIRE will handle them." Mirror Applejack said, ajusting her stetson. "Oh, by the way, what in tarnation does DARKFIRE stan' for?" Applejack said, staring at her Mirror double. "Ah, DARKFIRE stand for D.efense A.ssault R.econnasance K.indred F.ixture I.ridescent R.ebound E.ntity, they're the most lethal and loyal police force anypony could need. The acronym was Celly's idea." Empress Luna said, nodding slowly.

"The resistance is led by High Track, the former military govenor of Zebrica, he left soon after we....relocated his wife and children, they were members of the Resistance, and they had to go." Lady Rarity stated,fixing her mane. The six Elements' faces showed looks of disgust and horror, at how a mare and her children had been killed, without a qualm. "Well, have fun. and welcome to OUR Ponyville, hehehe." The Mirror Dash, Wob Niar, said, snickering into her hooves. Empress Celestia teleported the Avatars, alongside her sister and herslef away, leaving only a faint trail of dust. "Well, I guess we'd better see this, High Track, and see if he can help us. Girls, not only do we have to find away home to our reality, our Ponyville, but we have to try and fix THIS world too." Twilight said, looking at the group. The five others nodded. "You know, I wonder, since me and Flutters are marefriends, ya think our Mirrors are too? Alongside Spike and Rarity, Applejack and Soarin, etc.?" Rainbow Dash said, rubbing her chin with a hoof. All of the other shrugged.

Walking through the streets of District 0, then came upon a ruff looking, tan coat, sandy blonde Pegasi stallion, with a treadmill Cutie Mark, an eyepatch over his right eye, a thin scar running through said eye, his left front leg was a fully, somewhat dirty, metal prosthetic. Now, Ponyville did have prosthetics, yet, they were mainly steel poles connected by a hinge. The stallion was wearing rumpled black hoodied, the hood was down, his eyes were emerald green, on his right front leg, was a bandana with a emblem, showing a wing, hoof, talon, and horn circling over a picture of Equestria. A thin layer of stubble covered his face, a bottle of Stalliongrad Whiskey in hoof, half-empty.

"Erm, excuse me, sir, we're looking for a Mr. High Track." Fluttershy said, lowering her face on the ground. "Who's asking?" The stallion asked, thinking [Hm, they look exactly like the Avatars, but no. Their personalities are the exact opposite. Clones, perhaps, no. Autons? No, they have flesh. Then, Hooves must have been right when he stated he saw a flux in trans-dimensional delta waves. They're from some other Equestria. What a relief, and I thought things would be getting boring around here.]

"We're the Elements of Harmony!" Twilight said, apurple glow appearing behind her. The stallion smiled, took a swig to whiskey, then spoke.

"Well, Elements of Harmony, you wouldn't need to keep searching. I'm High Track."

(Whoo, another chapter down. High Track is the pony version of my good friend, and fellow fleet member/Brony M'Rott, from the Guardians of Equestria fleet on Star Trek Online. Well, ciao, and cya next time)

5. "Ponies should not be afraid of their government, government should be afriad of their ponies"

The Elements quickly asked if they could join the Resistance, to which High Tack said they could, and led them down the alley, through a rusted metal hatch, and into a large, underground complex.

"Wow" was the only thing Twilight, or any of her friends could say. The place was about the size of City Hall, Twilight's tree library/house, Rainbow Dash's cloud home, and half of Carousel Boutique combined. Monitors covered a good chunk of the complex. Ponies, Griffons, Minotaurs, among various other species walked the halls. "Yeah, its our little slice of heaven.: High Track said, grinning at the Elements.

"Finally, something exciting happens around here!" a young voice called out. Out of a corer stepped a young, tall Pegasus stallion. His mane and tale were obsidian black, his eys the same shade, and his coat was light tan, He had on black leather armor over black pants and a white shirt. He too was sporting the armband with the Ponyville Resistance emblem, a Whinechester Sniper rifle was slung over his back.

"Ah, Agent Knight Blade (my ponysona), welcome. Girls, this is Knight Blade, or Jacen Marek as he likes to be called. He used to be spec ops for our so great ad powerful empresses, now, he's a freedom fighter.

"Charmed, and what do I owe the honor of meeting such fine mares such as youself?" Knight asked, giving a smile to the six mares. Twilight ad the other five blushed slightly at the compliment. Suddenly, a transparent circle fell out of High Track's eyes. "Crap, and there go my false irises" He said, picking them back up, storing them in his hoodie. That was when the Mane Six noticed his real eyes. They were a pale. greenish-blue, almost like a cross between an emerald and a lapis lazulli. "Well, we best get to work. Marek, you take these "fine mares" down to the armory, get them gear. Then get them some quarters" High Track said, strolling away. "Yes sir"

The trip to the armory was fairly uneventful. The armory door was HUGE, almost rivaling the size of the Royal Treasury Vault back in their Equestria. Inputting a 5 digit passcode, the metallic door slid back with a loud groaning sound. The walls were lined with weapons. Pistols, rifles, blades, you name it. The tables were covered with various pieces of armor. A clipboard hung on a nail nearby. "Alright, let's see. Ah, Applejack, I think's you'd enjoy this." Knight said, placing two large, bulky metal hooves, and a set of emerald green (like her eyes) armor, made of an infusion of plate mail and reinforced iron. "Whoa nelly." Applejack said, marveling her attire. The others soon got outfitted. "What next sir?" Rarity asked, wearing a skintight dark purple bodysuit, a belt of sheathed knives on her chest, and a Colt .45 Magnum in hoof.

Jacen grinned, a fire in his eyes, and held his .50 Cal sniper rifle at the ready. "Now, we foalnap Trottingham Govenor Solar Wind."

(Another chapter down. Suggestions for next chapter, how the mission is done, Solar Wind's appeareace/clothes, etc. Thanks, and cya next time)

1. Long Live the Empire

Nightmare Moon had fallen. The traitor had been tracked down to the old castle, and destoryed. The Avatars, Lady Twilight Sparkle, Avatar of Necromancy, Pinkamena Diane Pie, Avatar of Scorn, Applejack, Avatar of False Truth, Rarity, Avatar of Greed, Fluttershy, Avatar of Despise, and Rainbow Dash, Avatar of Betrayal, had summoned their power, and annihlated the false Empress.

The twin Empresses, had taken Equestria under their wings. First, the old Royal and Night Guards were converted into DARKFIRE, the fierce defenders of the Empire, and keepers of peace. Any and all who opposed them, were silenced. To keep Equestria in order, they eliminated all who threatened ponykind.

The barbaric Griffons, savage and stupid, were herded and given to the care of the far superior unicorns, the manure-headed Minootaurs, made beasts of burden to the graceful Pegasi. Though, very few Earth Ponies were given rights. As Celestia and Luna had given them no gifts. they were treated like those of the Minotaurs and Griffons. The "Mud-ponies" as they were called, toiled in the gem mines, and the crop fields, harvesting food, fuel, and precious stones for New Canterlot, the capital of Equestria, and for Ponyville Districts 1-14.

Celestia and Luna had made the Avatars the heads of the Districts. They were to enforce the laws that the Empresses had passed, using whatever methids deemed necessary to keep order.

For years, the Equestrian Empire, the rightful ruler of all, had been a place of order, and a perfect utopia.

That is, until a group of 6 mares appeared in the royal throne room, who appeared to be the Avatars..........but how?

(First chapter up! Yay!)
