Chapters My Little Equestria Girls
"uhh" groaned Lyra in an expression of discontent at her current state of awakedness.
Her eyes eventually pried themselves open to reveal the charred remains of her basement ceiling, she had just remembered what happened last September. The mare with fogged over vision instinctively rubbed her eyes to bring herself to full awakedness. Once her vision had cleared, Lyra made an important revelation.
"HANDS! I HAVE HANDS! THANK DEAR CELESTIA I HAVE HANDS! WHY ARE THEY GREEN!? WHY ARE MY HANDS GREEN?!? OH DEAR CELESTIA WHY ARE MY HANDS GREEN?!?!" Lyra belted in a volley of mixed emotions ranging from pure euphoria to complete shock and horror. Bon Bon's slumber had no chance against such a scream, and as a result the yellow former mare woke up.
"Lyyyrraaaaa please don't shout this early" She grunted, not yet realizing the complexity of the situation they are in. Once Bon Bon's consciousness caught up with her vision she let out a terribly high pitched screech of shock "AYYYIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Lyra what have you done to us!"
After recoiling from the shock the two former mares now had a chance to look at each other. Lyra noted that the creature she created while not human completely was also not Bon Bon excluding the yellow skin, blue and pink curls and trademark death scowl. "NO, this can't be right." said Lyra as she rushed to her anthropology books to more closely examine the differences between the humans of her dreams and the abominations she had created.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS CAN'T BE RIGHT LYRA, THE SPELL HAS OBVIOUSLY TAKEN ITS EFFECT?!" nagged Bon Bon "No Bon Bon" Lyra explained "My spell was interrupted so the transformation did not completely happen." Lyra displayed one of the coloured images in her book "You see, humans only tend to have at most 8 different skin tones, what we have are strange pony-humans where the skin is the colour of our former fur" Lyra continued while flipping through more pages continually pointing out small differences that hasbro decided to change after I had already made this portion of the fic
And now for the continuation
"Lyra what the result is doesn't matter" Bon Bon reminded her housemate of her one rule regarding magic "what matters is can you reverse it." Lyra responded offencively "Well Bon Bon I could have but because the spell has changed so drastically I really don't know how" Lyra then used her new apendages to point at her blank forehead "And if you haven't noticed I don't have a horn anymore!"
"Wait!" Bon Bon exclaimed in a moment of realization "If you don't have a horn, then what will happen to the pegasi who live in the clouds." The two girls shared a non-verbal message of, "Let's postpone this bicker session until after we know hundreds of ponies/people won't die". They then rushed out side, coincidentally Bon Bon noticed how useful hands were at opening doors in away only unicorns could do in the past.
Luckily they were able to bare witness to the first of the pegasus accidents as one of the "local heros " ,as Lyra sarcastically refered to the elements of harmony, Rainbow Dash fell from the sky and crashed semi-saftley in a tree.
"OW OW OW OWWWWWWWEEEE THAT HURTS!" the now anthromorphed pegasus squealed as she untangled herself rather undexterously from the tree. "Oh my Celestia" Bon Bon exclaimed "Rainbow Dash are you OK". "Yeah I should be fine what-ever-your-name is, by the way do either of you know why we all look like this."
Bon Bon being more ignorant to the lack of recognition she recieved from the element of loyalty replied "Well Lyra here decided to mess around with dangerous magic and somehow transformed Celestia knows how many ponies into this". "HEY" retorted Lyra "It's not my fault the spell failed!".
"Well since you made the spell" Rainbow interupted "can you tell me why I can't seem to fly anymore?". Lyra took the oppurtunity openly to share her knowledge of humans with someone other than Bon Bon "Well you see, Homo Sapiens-" "Are you calling me gay?!" Rainbow interjected "What? no why would you think that?" Lyra continued " Homo-Sapiens have a solid bone structure that cannot sustain flight." Rainbow's face lit up in shock at the last three words uttered by the green mare/woman "WAIT YOU'RE TELLING ME i CAN'T FLY!?!?!? TELL ME YOU KNOW HOW TO REVERSE IT" Rainbow reacted while trying to forget about her fears of never being able to join the wonderbolts for lack of flight ability. Lyra saddened and down-trotted replied "sadly no." Rainbow frantically thought for options "We need to get you to Twilight NOW!"
Lyra and Bon Bon were then rushed to the Golden Oaks Library as fast as Rainbow's new legs would take them. Upon arriving they noticed that the Elements of Harmony excluding Loyalty were already at the library. "Well there ya' are RD." obsevered Applejack "we were wonderin' when you'd show up, who're yer' friends" Applejack said noticing Lyra and Bon Bon. Bon Bon took the oppurtunity to introduce her housemate and herself to the Elements of Harmony while Lyra observed their surroundings not wanting to seem to apreciative to the attension hogs of Ponyville.
Suddenly a barking was heard eminating from behind Twilight, Lyra noticed this barking was coming from a purple dog with a green underbelly and immedeatly assumed the worst. "NO SPIKE!!" Lyra cried as she assumed one of the only creatures she enjoyed the company of besides Bon Bon ,mainly because he had thumbs, had had his hands removed and replaced with paws a disability Lyra wanted to cure for all of Equestria. "Wow, I didn't think you'd be so torn up about him." said Twilight.
With Lyra's fears and mistakes seen she proceded to swallow her pride and explain to the heros what she had done. "I must contact Princess Celestia at once" said Twilight and now with a down-trodden tone "Except now I don't know how"
A bright light flashed and then a voice appeared from the center of the circle the girls were standing in "That will not be necessary"

The bright light faded and revieled the impressively stunning body of Celestia. While the former ponies stood at an average of 5 feet 11 inches tall, Celestia stood at 7 feet. Her stunning sun ray of a mane had been replaced with a equally stunning and still levitating hairstyle not too different except for falling slightly more like a 240 degree angle instead of her ussual 225 degree mane as a mare. Lyra noticed how despite the nudity of all the anthros Celestia's body seemed different ,due to her bossom being slightly more plump in a motherly way. Then in voice ,so familiar and crisp despite probable vocal cord elongation, the goddess spoke.
"Twilight" she said in a sound not only expressing a tone of interogation but also explaining the best corse of action being to immeadeately tell everything that was known.
"Princess Celesti-WOAH!" Twilight was inerupted by a fall triggered by her attempting to bow to her teacher but being unable to due to her new form. A move that noteably was not attempted by any other of the mane 6 out of common sense.
Twilight quickly gave an apology for her hubris in terms of her formality, an apology that was quickly accepted by Celestia, who quickly followed by saying "I need you to tell me what spell caused this monumental shift."
Note dear reader, that although she does ask Twilight which spell it is not out of expectation of Twilight's magic failing, but it is from her knowledge of her students high intelegence and sensitivity to magic.
Lyra then spoke up "It was me." Celestia turns "I made the spell. It was supposed to turn everyone into perfect humans but it failed and made us all into these... things! Oh please Oh please don't send me to the moon!" Celestia silenced her subject thus stopping her from sucumbing to sobbing and quite superbly soaking her seafoam skin over some story about being sent to some celestial space "It is okay, as I see that you are most knowledgeable on this subject and also are quite repentent I think it would be best if you just calmed down and began your penence relaying your information to me."
Lyra began talking about humans. This was a great therapy for her as she eventually sped up her talking. Celestia paused her new human society advisor after she had reached an average of about one-hundred and twenty words per minute, a speed only rarely matched by the element of laughter. "I am going to have to hear the rest of this in Canterlot." said Celestia much to the thanks of Bon Bon and the more sane members of the elements of harmony "Now the reasons I came for are three fold. Primarily I have found that besides those in arial housing these bodies propose no harm and thus will be used as a learning experience. Secondly, as the only real threat these bodies pose to us is lack of protection from cold I request the element of generosity along with several other designers create new clothes for our new forms. Finnaly my advisors have informed me that there is a crown that when gained in a certain way will allow this spell to be reversed.".
"But, Princess" Twilight gasped with some regret as now she had to finish her sentence "How is it that you were able to use magic without a horn?". "Simple" Celestia explained to her student in a very forgiving way that also impies an explanation "The use of hand signs and some spell components can allow any formerly horned being in an humanoid body to use magic.". Celestia demostrates this by levitating a twig into her hand.
"Now" the ruler sayed as she slapped the stick into her other hand "I feel as if the best corse of action would be for me to return to Canterlot with ,Lyra was it, and come up with the best posible solution for gaining the crown"
After this was said Lyra moved to her leaders side and prepared to teleport. After a quick goodbye to Bon Bon she was off and ready to start cleaning the collosal mess she made, no matter how strange the solution may be.

Brad woke up to the blinding brightness of an artificial light, this coupled with the almost numbing pain of being an artificial creature just created thoughoughly woke him. His sensed his dimentions as standing at six feet one inch tall and weighing approximately one-hundred and seventy pounds, the perfectly average size for a male 17 or 18 year old high school student. The source of the last bit of subconcious information was unknown to Brad as he was, as explained, just created.
A feminine voice spoke up "Good morning agent Brad, Happy Birthday." Brad quickly sat up to identify the speaker but was greeted not only by the sight of the green anthro we know as Lyra but also a splitting headache. "Your official purpose agent Brad-" Lyra continued "-is to become the perfect relationship material for the element of Magic ." Brad nodded as he had already been psychologically briefed on his mission during conception. "I am also required to tell you that are to stop ex-agent S, a failed expirement made before you, from forming such a relationship with you." Lyra then allowed the embodiment of chaos and the symbolic father of Brad to step out from the shaddows, awesome gottee and all, while Chad nodded fully understanding his new mission. Lyra then finished her statement. "I am not however, required to tell you this-
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
It is a nice sunny Ponyville morning and Rarity is working hard in her botique making the clothes for the recently half-humanized Ponyville. She appears to be doing quite well with her hands and is still able to manipulate fabric and her soeing machine with ease. On the other hand ,she is unable to multitask as she could with her magic.
The door bell rings and in enters Twilight Sparkle, new body clumsiness in all."Oh hello darling, How are you on this fine day?" Rarity said in an almost instinctive manner. Twilight observed the room and then responded accordingly "I'm doing okay Rar', I see you haven't been able to master that hand sign magic that Celestia was using either." Rarity replied with a trademark overly dramatic sigh "Oh I know darling, and the worst part is I have to rush so much I was only able to duplicate one female and one male bottom design. And even more, I am fairly certain I have mistaken a few cutie marks when emblazening them on the skirts!"
"Tavi', TAVI'! WHERE'S TAVI'?" Vinyl Scratch screemed from outside while chasing skirts of former earth ponies, but not the greyish-brown variety of which she was calling.
"But enough about me, How are the other girls doing?" Rarity queried. Twilight cleared her throat knowing that this would take a long time to explain "Applejack has found cooking easier and can use her hands to pick apples, but her soft skin and lack of bucking ability annoy her. Rainbow Dash has been helping the once-pegasi by clearing their house through cloud walking. Although she is absolutely miserable due to not being able to fly, she does seem to be more agile. Fluttershy has found that her hands help with some of the more delicate jobs she needs to do, but her larger size is a bit intimidating to some of the smaller animals." Rarity interupted "What about Pinkie dear?" The element of laughter after having her name called burst from concealment under a pile of fabric. Pinkie then yelled "Well I'm having a terrible time, I can hardly fit through half of the holes in the fourth wall!" Pinkie then picked up Twilight and yelled directly into her face forceing her purple hair back."HOW AM i SUPPOSED TO TALK TO THE AUDIANCE NOW, TELL ME!!" After a brief moment of Twilight recoiling from shock Pinkie resumed in a much lighter tone "On the bright side I can make all of these ballon animals." Pinkie then proceded to bend ballons that she seemingly pulled out of nowhere into a large variety of creatures that quickly filled the fashion botique ceiling and turned it into a figurative ballon zoo.
"Oh by the way Twilight" Pinkie interjected from her show of dexteritous mastery "The princess is at the library waiting for you." "WHAT!" Twilight exclaimed "Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" she said as she rushed out the door despite hitting her head on the way out on the low hung door designed for equines.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
After one to many clumsy slips or falls, Twilight finally arrived at the libray to find not only Celestia but Lyra there waiting for her. Not to mention the entirety of Ponyville who were also in attendance.
Twilight greeted her mentor with a bow, a feat of human body coordination she had mastered, and proceded to let the ruler speak. " Good day Twilight, How have you been progressing on your study of hand signs?" Twilight shuddered in fear of replying negatively "Not very well I am afraid. If only there was some type of institute where we could learn how to use it as adults. In fact an adult learning institution would be usefull for nearly all aspects of these new bodies." Celestia spoke with a wink "Luckily for you Twilight , my head agent of the Human Intelegence Agency, Lyra Heartstrings, has informed me that in human society there is such an isitution . It is called High School."
Celestia then proceeded to explain the concept to the population of Ponyville while the mentally pompous Lyra stood by while thinking about how absolutely perfect her plot was going, and with just a few petite steps to preform it would be complete.

My Little Equestria Girls
The First Day of High School
Twilight's newly extetioned door opened with a bang and allowed the activator of the door to be greeted with Celestia's bright sun. Although most days have been like this since the weather team hasn't been able to create many storm systems recently due to the lack of wings, Twilight still found a renewed joy from it. She might have even burst into song if it weren't for the recollection of the ending of the last morning musical she had begun. Despite the lack of vocals, the Element of Harmony still walked with a rhythmic pop and a smile on her face. She was just about to begin rounding up her friends to go to the new "high school" that was recently built when Spike delivered to her the former saddle bags of the mare but it had been converted into a backpack, for the new body. With a quick but semi-formal "Thank you Spike" Twilight was off.
After gathering Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie and Fluttershy, the latter taking the most time as she had to be convinced that, just because this was a school, it would not be a return of the bullying days she expirienced in pegasus grade school, the group headed over to Carousel Botique for the final peice to their puzzle. Rarity exited her home/place of buisness wearing an outfit that, like the mare herself, was just slightly more formal than her friend's. Specifically she had a nice belt and more depth to her colour scheme. After brief complements, ranging from fluttershy's genuine opinion to Rainbow Dash's tone of being forced to complement, Twilight spoke up and said "Thanks again for these boots Rarity-" she said as she motioned to her currently furry near knee high boots "They really help with my balance." "Oh think nothing of it dear. Now let us be off, we musn't be late on our first day of high school. The group then walked across a newly beaten path into the horrible cespool of drama known ironically as high school.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Upon arrival the group recieved schedules for their individual school experiences from H.I.A. officials who volunteered to help run the school. "Is it absolutely necessary to have us only be together completely at lunch." Rarity ~~whined~~ complained. She recieved an answer that despite new facial physics was still besides the mouth and jaw "Room spacing and scheduled activity sizes do not allow for peer choice." this officer obviously was transfered from the royal guard.
After comparing there schedules they found that none of them would be without at least one of each other for too long. Great relief came from Fluttershy when she found that she was the only one who managed to find one friend in every class from first to fifth period and far more than that from sixth to eighth (ninth period being lunch). Besides the exception, each element had about one or two classes which were individualy their's. Rainbow Dash had Physical Education, Rarity had fashion, Applejack had Agricultual Methods , Pinkie had an earlier lunch, and finnaly Twilight had a magical education course that Rarity had opted out of seeing as Twilght could learn for both of them. Spacially speaking, Twilight was the most seperated as the hand sign science classroom was a seemingly massive seven wings away from her friends.
Twilight reported optimistically "Well no use worrying about it, come on or we'll miss our first classes." Twilight was extra-optimistic over being back in an educational building.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Twilight's first few classes were mainly uneventful. Besides having Fluttershy to help in the human biology class, very few major exciting events happend. Somehow High School had turned even education into a chore for Twilight.
Her day really started becoming eventful after she left her seventh period magic class and was heading to her study hall, in which she would pass her notes onto Rarity. On this journey she would, while distracted talking to Colgate, make one of the few falls for her that day. She would end the trip by bumping into Brad. "Waoh, sorry this must happen a lot" Brad stared blankly, partially questioning how uncoordinated this girl was compared to he, who was made to walk like a human, and partially identifing this as his mission target. "Um? guy" Twilight questioned after waiting approximately 15 seconds for a response. Before Brad could speak Colgate interjected saying "See you later Twilight" and quickly went off to the restroom to brush before her eigth period lunch. After Twilight returned her focus to Brad, he responded saying "No, I can't recall that ever happening to me."
Twilight decided to strike up conversation with Brad on her way to study hall and really enjoyed herself. Brad despite having mission objective found himself genuinely (as genuine as an artifical anthro can be) enjoying her company. They parted awkwardly after Twilight had arrived at her destination.
After discusing hand signs and other magics with Twilight, Rarity needed to coment on the, assumed, former stallion that Twilight was conversing with. "oh, Brad" Twilight responded with a light blush. Rarity then took the oppurtunity to claim Twilight had a crush on Brad. "Come on Rarity, you're acting like a schoolfilly." Rarity then motioned to the room and thus the school "Am I not at this point, I might as well play the part."
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Lunch was not extremely eventful in the mind of most, but for some it had other meanings. Brad had experienced the existential nirvana of having fried corn on a stick, something he called a "corn dog". Rainbow Dash discussed her facination with the game of soccer. Pinkie annonced her planning of the fall formal dance. The latter event Twilight needed to comment on "Why the hay are we having a dance aren't we supposed to learn!" Pinkie responded saying that "Headmistres Heartstrings said it was necessary to unlock the powers of the crown of change." Rarity added "And Twilight, it could be fun, getting all dressed up, dancing, oh I just love it." Twilight defeated uttered "fine " with a sigh.
What was more eventful was after lunch where Twilight was semi-physically and mainly verbally acosted by a, once again assumed, former mare with yellow and orange spikey hair and a yellow body. "Listen up you!-" Sunset uttered menacingly "Brad, is mine !" Twilight visibly shocked by this responded "Oh, I'm sorry are you two dating or something." Sunset Shimer released Twilight after getting her point across and replied "No, not at the moment, but we will be." Twilight said confusedly "Are you from the same town or something?" Sunset Shimmer took one last look over her shoulder at Twilight "You could say that."
Twilight left school and returned home a; confused, tired, in love, and also slightly terrified former mare.

My Little Equestria Girls
Can you feel the love in bloom tonight
Most of the school day for Twilight was uneventful, the exception being her second encounter with Brad. "Oh, Hey Twilight." Brad said as he rushed twoards his assigned but loved target of affection. "Hi Brad, hey do you by any chance happen to know a Sunset Shimmer." Twilight asked inquizitively. Brad responded "No I have never heard of her, Why?" most of which was a lie as he clearly understood that Sunset was the alias of ex-agent S. "Well she said that she knew you and that you were both from the same area before you came here, any reason why she might say that?" Twilight asked trying to get a more clear view of the events of yesturday. Brad cleared it up but also made a half-lie "She's just jealous and wants me for herself, don't worry about her." Twilight responded perkely as this was a decent explaination for her "Okay then, let's get walkin', we wouldn't wan'na be late."
Now dear reader which part of Brad's statement do you believe is the lie. The falsacy was that sunset wants Brad for herself, she would be just as happy if every other girl in the school except Twilight was dating Brad. The truth is during her creation besides discord accidentally making a female, the form had the jealousy of Twilight that Lyra had been feeling during her conception. This is carried on through Sunset and is seen quite clearly as the young lady was clearly bouncing off the walls after viewing the scene above from afar. At this point Sunset knew that she needed to make a quick move on Brad before it was too late.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
The cafeteria was quite lively this period as it was anounced that the Fall Formal would be two days from then on Friday night. Pinkie explained to her circle of friends that the crown apparently is won by the girl of a couple who wins in a vote for who the most popular couple in the school is. Rarity swooned over the posibility of such romance mixed with buisness, The latter of causes prompted Rarity to remind her friends that she would make dresses for all of them, and probably many more. After helping Rarity with some colour scheming, Twilight noticed Brad sitting alone before Sunset Shimmer placed not only herself but a large plate of corndogs on his table.
For those who do not know, the quickest way into an artificialy created man's heart is not his brain but in fact it is through his stomach. Brad although explicitly told to avoid Sunset by Lyra, was unable to resist feeling attracted to the godess of food that was currently in front of him. Twilight to counter this went up to the counter and purchased from Granny Smith her own plate of corndogs. The remainder of the lunch period for Sunset and Twilight was spent in a game of one ups-manship both trying despritely to be the object of Brad's affection.
Twoards the end of the lunch period, The two bickering girls struck a deal with eachother that stated that whom ever can win the Fall Formal crown with Brad will be his girlfriend. The last word that came from Sunset, quite smoothly and eloquently I might add, startled Twilight and prompted her to correct her by saying "Don't you mean special somepony?" quite slowly out of confusion but would be interpreted as derogetory. "I KNOW WHAT I MEANT" Sunset informed Twilight in a shouted wisper as neither wanted there conversation to be heard by the feasting Brad.
The day ended with both girls kissing Brad goodbye. Although Twilight did kiss for love, she did kiss more affectionately than she would have normally as to try to one-up Sunset. Brad left the school feeling more confused than Twilight on her first day. His confusion stems from the facts that; he had no control over his own life, and that he was both thoughly completing and failing his mission at the same time. Needless to say, this would have been a confusing day even for a non-artificialy created teenage boy.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
The Thursday inbetween our last confrontation and the Formal was spent by Twilight in a rather lax way, compared to Sunset. Twilight, although she did tell most everyone she talked to about Brad and that she was up for nomination, she did not request seriously that anyone vote for her. Twilight was mainly counting on her heroine status to carry her through the poles. It was such laxity that allowed Twilight to go and view Rainbow Dash's soccer game. Although the game and the former mare were earthbound, Rainbow did seem to enjoy herself quite alot. The fact that she amazingly scored the winning goal did help this enjoyment.
Sunset on the other hand, used her time very wisely. She used the eloquence and general charisima that comes from being an artificialy created high school girl to her advantage. Sunset was able to secure several votes, and even some former ponies who knew Twilight very well were persuaded to vote for Miss Sunset Shimmer
The game was called. The objectives set. The only thing that remained was the Fall Formal.

Bon Bon get out of my laboratory
"YES!" Lyra screamed maniacally "IT'S FINALLY DONE!"
"ALL THOSE YEARS, THEY LAUGHED AT ME, WELL WHOSE LAUGHING NOW HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
"Lyra?" Bon Bon asked as she descended to the basement she and Lyra shared "What are you doing down here?"
"NO BON BON DON'T COME DOWN HERE!" Bon Bon not heading her house-mate's warning continued to enter the basement where she was greeted by, not only Lyra but a large hulking machine with a pulsating spiral inside a sheet of glass with the lime unicorns signature green magical glow supplying some type of energy to it
"LYRA" Bon Bon nagged "What is that thing?"
"THIS BON BON, THIS IS GOING TO CHANGE THE WORLD HA HA!"
"Lyra" Bon Bon droned "is this about those humo-whatcha'-ma'call-its again? If it is you need to stop"
"NO BON BON" Lyra continued "THIS IS MY REDEEMPTION DAY! TODAY IS THE DAY ALL OF EQUESTRIA WILL BECOME HUMAN!!! AND YOU CAN'T STOP ME HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"
"LYRA! you're insane we need to get you some help NOW" Bon Bon said as she approached her friend
"NO" Lyra resisted from the control panel "THIS IS MY TIME, YOU SEE THIS BUTTON HERE, I'M GONNA' PRESS IT
"STOP!" Bon Bon cried as she tried to restrain her friend. Bon Bon's attempt failed and would lead to far more consequences than either mare could ever imagine.
Bon Bon flailed her body into Lyra but not before the unicorn could succeed in activating the machine. While Bon Bon dived her cannon smashed into the glass thus releasing some of the energy from the machine. This besides causing a blast wave that knocked both mares out, also evoked an awesomely massive explosion across all of Equestria which not only forced all its residents into a similar state of unconciecoiusness but also cast the spell on all of them.
But not all will go as Lyra planned...

Fall Formal Finale (Four cheers For alliteration)
The road to the formal finally has reached its end
Twilight and the other elements gathered at Rarity's house to prepare for the dance and make pretty themselves. Due to the former mares becoming accustomed to casual clothing wear, due to exposure on a daily basis, it took less persuasion than ussual for Rainbow Dash and Applejack to agree to their dresses. Rarity was quite proud of herself at this moment. She not only created patterns for her friends, not to mention the scores of other girls who came to her as she was one of the few girted members of her fashion class, but she also dealt quite well with the slightly more visible female body part (happy Bradley) and used them well in the design with out drawing direct attention to them.
Around 7:50 post meridiem, a knocking was heard eminating from the door. Twilight arose from her current position of sitting to answer the call of the knock. Twilight preformed this action in a very non-chalant way, almost the point of bragging how she clearly knew who was knocking and none of her friends did. Twilight opened the door to find none other than her date for the evening Brad. Brad had arrivied wearing a very nice tuxedo. The jacket was the standard black but the vest and bowtie were shades of purple, while his shirt was a nice shade of pink. Clearly, he chose these colours to accent Twilight, but that was not the only thing he brought that had Twilight's colour scheme in mind. Brad had also brought a light purple lilac flower, matching his coursage, that he quickly pinned to Twilight's dress.
After being invited in and greeted, Rarity commented on Brad's and Twilight's appearancess "Oh you two just look smashing together, oh and brad, i love the tuxedo, nothing suits you like a suit." Fluttershy then applied her own comment to the conversation " I love that lilac, i didn't know you could get that anywhere else but Canterlot." Brad quickly formulating that his plan might be foiled by Fluttershy's knowledge of flora responded with a typically boyish answer "I know a guy." After a brief pause while the elements were waiting for Brad to finish his statement, Twilight suggested that they get going as they do not wish to be late.
The group arrived at the school at about 8:10 and thusly the formal had started. From this point the group, excluding Twilight and Brad, dispersed to do various things throughout the dance. Applejack was going to run the food stand. Rainbow Dash merely sat to the side at most dancing alone to a song she happen to like. Rarity was mingling but was not so secretly hoping that one of the former stallions would ask her to dance. Fluttershy generally sat around normally following one of her friends. Pinkie Pie, when not helping maintain any peice of work at the formal, was dancing crazily on the dance floor.
Promptly after arrival, Brad was ushered away, rather rudely, by Sunset Shimmer. Sunset was wearing a magnificent (store bought) dress, upon which she was holding a magnificent yellow and orange flower which she quickly used to replace Brad's lilac. The reason Twilight was not stopping Sunset was that this was an agreed part of the game. Twilight was able to be taken to the dance by Brad, only if Sunset got to have the first dance.
The specific format of the game as it stood follows this sentence.
• ballots were cast upon arrival
Sunset began her turn with a firery fox trot almost as flaming as her hair folicules folloed by a transition to Agritine Tango in which she took the lead as Brad was too obviously not taking a tip. Their pelvises were connected,but only because of Sunset doing a great impression of Luna's cresent moon. Despite not getting his toes stepped upon, Brad felt very violated and abused
Next, it was Twilight's turn. The pace of the music was currently appropriate for a uninesse waltz, which was very lucky for Twilight as this was her favored dance. The two seemed much more natural together as they were easily able to stay connected during a quick step number
At this point Vinyl Scratch was asked to stop the music for a bit, while PinkiePie announced the results of the election for best couple. "OKAY Every human, let's get started!" Pinkie exclaimed as she drew the first results letter from her bag. "34 Votes to, huh, Sunset and Brad?" Sunset smiled at this fact as she was sure that the seventeen former mares she convinced not to vote for Twilight should surely allow her to surpass Ms. Sparkle. "next vote-" Pinkie continued " 42 votes for Twilight and Brad! Woohoo go Twilight." Pinkie exclaiming that last biased opinion of a result not only offended Sunset but nearly physically hurt her. " and another one, 63 votes for-" nearly everyone stopped in communal gasp of surprise wondering just who surpassed Twilight. "LYRA AND BRAD?!?!?!?!?!?!?!" the crowd soon echoed Pinkie's statement of confusion. Lyra then stepped up to the stage and basically physically stole the crown she already symbolically stole by stacking the vote. Just before leaving, Lyra heard Pinkie announce the last vote category " 1 vote for Lyra and Bon Bon."
Lyra then saw her navy blue dressed object of affection standing clearly notioning that she cast the one vote. Lyra, so upset over not noticing how much she was ignoring Bon Bon, ran off to a back room sobbing. Bon Bon followex her green friend at a much slower but direct pace.
Bon Bon found Lyra bawling her eyes out with the crown pressed up against her face. "WHY, WHY WAS I SO STUPID?!?!?!?" Lyra cried. Bon Bon attempted to comfort her "It's okay Lyra, It's okay. Let's talk about this together. I haven't seen you since you left for Canterlot." Lyra then spent the next half hour explaining to Bon Bon her jealousy of Twilight, exspecially since she became a princess, and how for once she wanted to be the hero by turning everypony into a human, a full one this time, she also went into how she created Brad and Sunset really just to make sure Twilight didn't become the hero. Bon Bon counseled saying " Lyra, there is no need to be jealous of Twilight. You're a great mare in your own right. I think what a real hero would do is accept that she failed a fix the mess." Lyra calmed down saying " thanks 'sniffle' Bonnie."
It was at this moment Lyra not only began to prepare the re-ponification spell, but also the poetically green mare let go of her envy for the element of magic. This would have similar effects on Sunset as we will see.

Twilight motioned to a seemingly unaffected Brad. After such a shocking turn of events in the vote, Twilight expected him to say something. Twilight finally did get her wish when Brad said " i don't like her." Brad ever the simplist gave Twilight all the hope she needed. Twilight then mentioned to Sunset "Well since we got more votes i guess i get to dance with Brad." Sunset was too shocked by her creator mamnipulating the rules to protest.
Over at the disc jockey booth, a greyish brown figure in a slim black dress approached from behind and said after tapping the DJ on her sholder "Vinyl." After turning around, Vinyl found her lost friend Octavia. " TAVI!!!" Vinyl exclaimed as she squeesed the life out of her friend. " DO YOU THINK YOU COULD PLAY SOMETHING SLOW FOR US 'TAVI?" Octavia replied in a squishy way " I'll hehe try Vi."
Then Twilight and Brad danced a magnificent equestrian waltz (slower in pace than the uninesse waltz) to Octavia's cello playing.
After the dance, incedentily also after Lyra had released her jealousy, Sunset approached Twilight in a calm and almost repentent manner. "Twi" she said, breaking the embrace of the couple "-the three of us need to have a talk." The two girls began walking twoards the hallway, but Brad, ever oblivious, needed to be told a second time that three included him.
The two artificial anthros explained, after they arrived at their destination, all about their abbriviated existances. Sunset took the time to explain how for give or take two minutes and thirty seconds she was freed from the tyrannical direction in her life that was Lyra's envy. Twilight offered this advice to Sunset " Since Lyra has stopped being jealous of me she probably is going to return us to ponies soon. When this happens there is a formerly braggart magician recently in Hoofdale I want you to find Sunset."
Sunset, after thanking Twilight, left the two love birds alone. Brad took the time to explain how, even though he was told to, he genuinely loves Twilight. The two then agree to be special someponies and kiss.
Just as they kiss, Lyra sets off the reversal spell turning all anthros in equestria, including Brad and Sunset, into ponies.

"HEY EVERYPONY-" Pinkie yelled at the top of her newly returned pony lungs "NOW THAT WE'RE PONIES AGAIN LEEEEEEEET'S PARTY!!!" Pinkie then proceded to pla very fun party song. The ponies danced through the night, except for two
Lyra and Bon Bon decided to return home. Lyra said to Bon Bon " Y'know now that I think about it, humans are kinda overated. Y'know what would be cool though? A machine that takes you to a universe where everyponie's gender is swapped!"Bon Bon laughed at this saying " Oh Lyra, my Lyra, my little Equestria girl."
