Magic Portal

It was a normal day in Ponyville.

Up in the sky you can see a trail of rainbow colors from a practicing blue coated pony. On a cottage near the Everfree forest you can hear animals. Inside Sweet Apple Acres you can see an orange pony bucking trees. Near Sugarcube Corner you can hear loud party music coming from a pink ponies' room. You can see ponies coming in and out of the Carousel Boutique. And you can hear loud explosions from a tree house library.

"Ummm... Spike... a little help please?" Said Twilight as she stood up from the ground.

"Coming geez this is a mess" Said spike as he picked up the fallen books and started to put them in shelves "What have you been doing anyway?"

Twilight levitated a book from the ground and showed it to Spike. "I found this book just this morning and there's a spell in it. Actually it's the only thing that's in the book. So..."

"So you're trying it out to see what it is" Spike continued in a boring tone.

"Uhuh" replied Twilight.

"Twi, it's almost time for lunch. You said we'll eat outside" Spike said as he walked towards the door

"Alright I'm coming." Twilight followed Spike.

Twilight and Spike went to the Ponyville Cafe. Twilight and Spike ordered there lunch and started eating.

As they ate, they talked about the book.

"So, what are you gonna do when you find out the spell?" Spike began.

"Wha?" Twilight said with her mouth filled with lettuce

"You know? The spell. The one that you've been working on since this morning?"

"Ow, tha shpew I stiw thon't knof" (ow, the spell, I still don't know)

"Wow you sure are hungry. Never mind"

"Heya Twi'. Heya Spike" Said a voice behind them.

Twilight and Spike already knew who it was.

"Haw Awlewack" (i Applejack)

"Hey Applejack. What brings you to the Cafe?"

"Ow well ah was just leavin'. Just talked to a pony 'bout ya know? Apples. Well see ya later" Applejack said as she went out the Cafe door

"Bye!" shouted Spike. He then started eating. Twilight however paid no attention to anything or anypony. Nothing stopped her from eating her lunch.

They soon finished they're lunch and were heading home.

When they reached the library Twilight opened the door and saw something that wasn't something anypony sees everyday.

"What in Equestria?!?" Twillight shouted and dragged Spike inside

"What's going o-. Oh my Celestia!'

There in the middle of the room was a circular white void.

"Spike! This might be from the spell I was casting! Where's the book?!?" Twilight levitated the book from before then flipped some pages. She then found a little pocket inside the book which had a small paper inside she levitated the paper and read out loud.

            "To anyone who finds this book, I must warn you. This is another one of my unfinished books.

                  I started it with a parallel universe spell Please take care of it.

                                                                                                                                 -StarSwirl

"Well that explains it" Said a dragon who was despertely holding Twilight by the mane.

"We need to close it" She said flipping some more pages "There's nothing else!"

Before she could do anything a purple colored hoof came out. Twilight and Spike hid on their kitchen. A few moments later the sound of the void disappeared but they heard voices of...Colts

"This is the Library"

"Stupid Portal didn't bring us anywhere

"Maybeeeeeee we changed tiiiiiiiime!!!!!!!!!!"

"Probably"

"Come on let's go outside and see where- I mean When we are"

Twilight knew she had to take action because she knew the colts were her parallel selves. So she went out of the kitchen and said behind the colts:

"Wait please!"

The colts turned around and looked at her eyes wide. Twilight and Spike did the same too.

"Dusk! you never said you had a mare here before!" Said a rainbow colored colt. Twilight was sure that this was rainbow Dash's counterpart self.

"Dusk, my man, how could you not mentioned it before? I mean, were you're Best Friends." Said a pony who had a white coat and a bluish-violet mane.

Birthday planning

"Alright. so...Let's plan the party already" Groaned Rainbow Dash as she flew backwards above the others.

"Hey watch it!" Rainbow Blitz flew out of the way before Dash could bump into him

"Sorry" Rainbow Dash glared at him

"Spike/Barb Write this down please" The two purple unicorns said simultaneously . Pacing from left to right. They both stopped and stared each other blankly

"Oh, sorry you do it" Dusk lowered his head and raised his hoof

"No it's fine. You should do it" beamed Twilight. Sven the showed that she wasn't nervous at all. Even though there were colt version of themselves

"Oh for the love of apples." Both Applejacks eye rolled and facehoofed.

"You know, I think we should have two copies of yer list." Said female Applejack

"Alright" Twilight and Dusk shrugged

"So..." Said Elusive. Putting his hoof through his mane. Trying to put it back to shape again. The portal caused strong winds that messed up his mane.

"I know! DECORATIONS!" said Pinkie

"Streamers!" Shouted Bubble

"And Balloons!" replied Pinkie

"Confetti"

"Banners!"

"Party Hats!" The two pink party ponies said alternately

"PIIIIIINKIIIIIIIIIE/BUUUUUUBLEEE" Shouted both Spike and Barbara

"What?" replied Pinkie

"We don't even have the paper yet!" Said Spike.

"Oops, sorry" Said both Pinkie and Bubble then smiled sheepishly then settled down.

When the two purple dragons had their quilts and papers they began recalling and writing all that was said.

"Ooookay..." Spike started writing

"Streamers" Barbara did the same thing too.

"Balloons"

"Confetti"

"Banners"

"Party Hats"

"Okay. what's next?" Barb asked

"We'll need food" Twilight used her magic to levitate a book from a shelf. The book floated in front of the two lavander ponies.

"Ahh... The book of party snacks. Good choice there Twilight" Dusk held his hoof up and gave a big grin at Twilight.

"Thank you" replied Twilight as the book flipped.

"Hmmm... Applejack" Twilight glanced over to the female Applejack

"What?" both said facing Twilight

"Uhhh... I think our Applejack should be called Aj. So there's no confusion."Dusk raised an eyebrow at the male Applejack.

"Hmmm..." AJ patted his chin with a hoof "Alright"

"What er you goin' ta say Twi?" Applejack trotted to Twilight

"Can you bake an Apple cake?"

"Course' ah can Twi! That is, if Flutters here, oh and Butterscotch here want Apple cakes" Applejack looked at the direction of the two shy ponies.

At the mention of both of their names, And all the ponies staring at them, Fluttershy hid her face in her mane. While Butterscotch, on the other hoof lowered his head.

"Of course" squeaked Fluttershy

"Umm...sure" mumbled Butterscotch

"But..." Fluttershy sighed and gave a pleading look at Twilight and Applejack.

"Buuuuuut..."Twilight looked suspiciously at Fluttershy

"Me and Butterscotch have been umm... talking and if possible can it just be us 14 at the party? We're not trying to be...selfish, But, umm... We just don't want to much attention drawing at us... that is, if that's alright with you" Fluttershy wiped her hoof oh the floor.

"Sure, why not? It's your birthdays after all. You decide"

"Thank you..."Butterscotch

For the rest of the afternoon they discussed all about the party. When they were done Twilight turned her head to the window, gave a good glare at the moon and stood on her four legs.

"What's wrong?" Pinkie also stood and hopped to Twilight

"Oh dear, we didn't realize how late it already is. It's precisely seven already!" Elusive exclaimed

"Wait, where the hay are we suppose to stay?" Aj stomped his hoof nd raised his eyebrow.

"We can't bring the colts in our houses. Twilight what do we do?" Rarity stood and walked over to Twilight

"Hmm...Ahah! I got it! I forgot that there was another room at this library!" Twilight shot

"You mean the dirty room were you didn't put anything in because everything was perfect already inside the library and then soon you forgot about the room?" Dusk panted

"Yeeeeesss....." Twilight said

Sleepover

"I know!" Pinkie Pie popped out of Twilight's mane. "Let's have a sleepover!"

"Aaaaarghhh!!!!"  Twilight jumped in surprise and landed on her back

" Yeah! a sleep over's not a bad idea" Dash said

"So, all we have to do is sleep in one room with colts?!?. Excuse me but I have my standards!" Rarity closed her eyes and flipped her hair "Not that I'm saying...Oh never mind! But I still refuse!"

"No, actually" Twilight began "We, are sleeping here, While the colts are sleeping at the room that I said earlier"

"Oh thank Celestia" Rarity calmed down

"Wait a sec," Blitz interfered " Were going to sleep on the ground?!?"

"No." Twilight turned to the girls "Didn't we each buy two sleeping bags at Canterlot?"

"Yeah ah remember that." Applejack's eyes widened

"The one was for visitors right?" Fluttershy asked quietly.

"Right. Girls, will you all please go to your homes and get those sleeping bags? Spike will you please come with me to the kitchen and help me to cook the foods?"

"Sure thing" Spike ran past Twilight

"Uh Twilight?" Dusk said "Can me and Barb help too?"

"Of course" Twilight turned around and walked to the kitchen with his male counterpart and a female dragon following her and as her 5 female friends galloped out of the library.

A few minutes later, the five colts were talking noisily in the library that Dusk had to stick is head out of the kitchen 5 times just to glare and silence them. Until they heard rain pouring outside the library.

"Oh, I sure hope the mares are okay" Elusive spoke up

"I know my opposite won't. I can't fly in the rain. And neither will she. You all know how I hate not flying" Blitz looked at his wing. The colts looked outside the window to see 5 pony figures coming

"That must be the giiiiirls!!!" Bubble sang

AJ opened the door before the mares could even get there. When they were finally inside they were dripping wet.

"I...I can't believe this! Look at my mane! It's a disaster! A horrible horrible disaster!"Rarity's eyes were huge but her irises were so little.

"Well at least your horn works. Look at my wing I'll have to wait an hour before I can fly again!." Dash grumbled.

"Told ya" Blitz whispered to Butterscotch as they both laughed softly

"We should really be woryin' about the sleepin' bags" Applejack glared at the two complaining ponies.

"Oh don't worry Applejack" Rarity used her magic to open bag that Applejack carried "It's all dry" She then gave the colts sleeping bags each representing each of their colors.

Out of the kitchen doorway come out a floating salad with purple aura around it. Followed by the four cooks.

"Here's the salad. Now we'll just have to wait for the girls to be back and we can start eating." Twilight had her eyes closed so she didn't see the wet ponies. She finally opened them and stood in shock after seeing her friends. "O sorry I didn't see you there girls. Spike please get some towels upstairs." Twilight's horn lit up again as she levitated a mop around the kitchen and started cleaning at wet places. Spike came down with the towels and handed them over to the mares.

When they were done wiping themselves, All the ponies came to the middle of the library and began eating. When they were done, Spike and Barb carried the plates the the kitchen and started washing them. Twilight then gave Dusk his sleeping bag. Then him and the colts were going to the room given to them except for Bubble.

"Haaaaaaaaaalt!!!!!!!!" Everyone turned to see two mad pink ponies glaring at them

"What's the matter now?"Dusk scratched his mane

"Wheeeeere do you think you're going Pinkie kept glaring.

"Asleep?" Replied Dash

"Nopony's going nowhere until we play games!" Bubble stomped one of his hooves.

"Well ah guess ah few games won't hurt. What do ya think everypony?"AJ said

With everypony's agreements they all settled in one big circle. Then decided to play Spin the bottle. The two dragons who came out of the kitchen thought of sleeping early. Spike gave Barb a sleeping beg and and agreed to sleep in Twilight's room until the ponies finish their game.

"Here are the rules" Instructed Twilight "It's just the same as every Spin the Bottle. End of the bottle asks or dares. Then the ones hat answers gets to spin. Then they'll ask. The mix to this is you're partner has to do the same thing as you do. Whether it's asking, daring, telling, or doing. She then levitated the bottle, put it in the middle and spun it.

(This is like their position)

(Just add the colts. And push twilight back. Sorry I can't find the most appropriate pic. for this)

"We got the mouth of the bottle"Dash said The two Rainbows looked at each other. Then on the two designers "Were doomed" added Blitz

"Okay" Elusive started

"Truth or dare?" Rarity already had an evil smile on.

"Dare" both said

The asker's smile suddenly turned into irritation. Then with no signal, they return to smile mischievously again.

"Okay, We dare you to tell us the truth" Rarity giggled

"What?!? No fair!" Blitz shot up in the air. Realizing he won't win, he calmed down and slowly landed in the same position earlier. While Dash still look like she's gonna pounce.

"No use for arguing. Okay. let's start. Who were your latest crushes?" Elusive asked head high.

"Ughhhhhhh!!!!" Exclaimed ponyville's fastest fliers

"Alright I'll say it just so you can stop. But! but... It just lasted like a week or two!" Dash gave a heavy sigh "His name's Hurricane..." Dash then lowered her head

The girls all gasped. They were expecting o NO from her. Then all of them looked at Blitz.

"It was her name too..." He had a same position as Dash. But Flying.

"Come on, were your friends. There's nothing to be afraid about. Just because you both had a crush doesn't men we'll look at you different. I mean, everyone has or had a crush before. Even me" Twilight placed he hoof at Dash's mane.

"Even you?" Dash said sarcastically.

"Haha real funny Dash" Twilight smirked before returning to her old position.

When the two were okay it pointed to Fluttershy and Butterscotch

"Truth or Dare"Blitz tapped his chin

"Truth please" Butterscotch replied

"Have you two ever been mad at Angel?" Dash zoomed in front of the two.

the two shy ponies turned their face away."Well not really  mad, just upset." Fluttershy answered.

"When he doesn't for example, eat his carrot." added Butterscotch

"And when she doesn't do what we told her to"

"But other than that..."

"He's a really good friend"

The room turned into an utterly silence. Then they continued playing. The next was Applejack and Aj. They were asked if for once they had gotten into  fight. They answered yes, when a Grape family insulted all of the Apple family.

Next was Pinkie And Bubble. They said dare then they did a 'triple jump, seven twirl, bounce around the room' and well of course for the two pink ponies, it was just a breeze.

Then followed by the clothes makers. They had truth then were asked what 'Of all the worst possible things that could happen what is THE WORST POSSIBLE THING' And well they answered 'losing their friends'

The last were the two 'eggheads' as the rainbows put it. They were asked about the first book that hat they read. And not much to anyone's surprise. They remembered. It was "ABC"

"Finally were done!" Dash said as she stretched

"I was beginning to feel numby!" Pinkie stretced as well.

"Pinkie, It's numb. Not numby" Twilight corrected "Well it looks like we can sleep. It's getting really late."

They said Good-nights to each other as the mares snuggled in their sleeping bag. And as the colts entered the door that lead to the other room.

The night went well. All the ponies were sleeping peacefully as Luna's great moon shone to all the windows casting a shiny light to every pony.

Preparing

Another day came. The sun was shining really bright and one of it's rays went through one of the town's library windows and was caught in one of a peacefully sleeping pegasus' eyes.

"*Yawn*..."Fluttershy rubbed her eyes to see all of the sleeping bags around her empty.

"Oh great" she thought as she scratched her pink mane "Now how am i going to help?"

She suddenly heard the door of the room assigned to the colts being opened.

"Hello? O, Good morning Fluttershy" said a voice.

She turned around to see her colt self smiling at her.

"Oh, umm good morning Butterscotch. Do you know where the girls are?" Fluttershy walked closer to him

"I was going to ask you if you new where the colts are." The yellow pegasus went over to the library's 'Animal section' and grabbed a book "They're probably planning the party. In the meantime, let's read some books. I'm sure Twilight wouldn't mind"

"Actually, I asked Twilight last night if we could use her bathroom and she said yes" She then grabbed two towels from her bag and threw one at Butterscotch then giggled.

"Hey! Alright, you go first" He then continued reading.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Piiiiiinkieeeeeee/Bubleeeee" Two lavander unicorns watched as two pink ponies chewed off a newly baked vanilla pie.

"What?" They both replied as they opened their mouths to take a big bite of the pink and yellow frosted Apple cake.

"Oh no you don't" Dusk said. With unison the hungry ponies were levitated from the snack table and into the ground.

"Good thing you only ate one pie" Twilight wiped her hoof in her eyebrows

"But we're so huuuuungryyyyy" Pinkie whined as she stomped both of her hooves.

"Don't worry, Dash is gonna be here soon with the---"

"FOOD!!!" Twilight was cut off when Pinkie and Bubble almost bumped her and ran to Dash.

"Wow you two sure are hungry" The rainbow pegasus then reached into a paper bag that she was carrying and grabbed ten cupcakes and threw them up in the air. And like dolphin feeding, the two party ponies jumped in unison. Pinkie swallowed the five, and Bubble swallowed the other five.

"I am full!" Bubble Berry lied down on the floor.

"Now now, we are not  here to eat" Twilight said

"Were here to plan a party" Dusk glared at the two ponies lying on the ground.

The two then stood up and began giving everyone some snacks to start in the day. Then they hung streamers. They were preparing the party in an abandoned cottage near Everfree forest. It had a couple of holes but they all managed to fix it. They also painted the outside of the cottage a dark shade of green. And the roof a lighter shade of brown so it would match the color of the forest. The inside though, had a lighter color. It was cream colored.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Hey Aj, ya'llmost done thar' with those cookies?" Applejack asked while pounding some cake batter.

"Almost, can ya'll past me some sugar?" His male counterpart put all the cookies in a bowl then transferred it to the snack table. Then returned to the kitchen.

"Hey Applejack and Aj, how many snacks are we making? And how many are done?" Twilight said entering the room.

"Oh heya Twi."Applejack grabbed a long list that was pinned on the wooden door " We're supposed ta make 50 choco chip cookies, 10 vanilla pies, 1 bowl of punch, 1 bowl of lemonade, a bowl o' lemon drops, 30 different flavored cupcakes, 20 caramel apples, Two gallons of ice cream,  bowl of spaghetti, And ar' big ol' Apple cake"

"Alright" Twilight responded "How many are done?"

"Well..." Applejack looked again at the long list "Were done with thar' cake, lemon drops, the ice cream's in the freezer, The cookies, pies, caramel apples, and 1 bowl o' lemonade,"

"So..." Twilight placed her hoof under her chin "You still need to make the punch, cupcakes, spaghetti, oh and can you make a another pie? Pinkie and Bubble well... got carried away with...hungriness" she smiled sheepishly at the two earth ponies.

"Right back atcha' Twi" The orange pony winked then turned to his counterpart "Ya'll heard that?"

"Uhuh Ahm' still makin' the last batch o' cupcakes" Aj said pulling the cupcakes out of the oven.

"Good job with the foods. Now, I gotta check on the others" Twilight went out of the kitchen and headed to the others. Each of them had each special task. Pinkie and Bubble were in charge of decorating the place, The two AJ's were in charge of the foods. The Rainbows were in charge of getting the two birthday ponies in the cottage, Rarity and Elusive were in charge of cleaning the place up. Which, was not a good idea 'It's all for Fluttershy/Butterscotch' They thought as they swept  the extra streamers on  the floor. Spike and Barb were in charge of helping Twilight and Dusk. While those two purple unicorns made sure everything was perfect. Just like always.

Time to Party!!

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

A shippy goodbye

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Who?

Twilight stared at them blankly then finally said "Woah. Um Hi I'm not his um...mare" She said pointing at the pony who they called Dusk.

"This is a parallel universe. OUR universe. I was actually trying out a new spell you see, I still didn't know that it was a spell for opening a portal that led to the parallel universe and... you know what happened next. So practically you're my opposite gendered self and he" She said pointing to Spike "Is yours" She pointed to another dragon.

"Well that explains why you look almost like me" The purple colt said.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door.

"Twi, it's us. Were here about the party ya know the one were ah havin' for ya know Flutters' " Certainly this was Applejack

"Coming! Oh what are we gonna do?!? Alright *sigh*" The unicorn took a deep breath and opened the door.

"Girls I need to show you something before we talk about the party" She said then showed the girls the colts and the female dragon.

"As I said to the colts, and dragon earlier, I suddenly opened a portal that led to the parallel universe. And they stepped inside and the portal closed. I can open another portal again but my magic won't work anymore, Plus, I lost the book cause' it got sucked inside the portal"

"So it was sent to our universe?" Asked The purple colt unicorn

"Yeah, By any chance do you know it?" Twilight replied hoping

"No, sorry. I found a book but I still haven't opened it. By the way, I'm Dusk Shine, That's Barbara, Applejack, Elusive, Rainbow Blitz, Butterscotch, and Bubble Berry." He said

"Oh, well I'm Twilight Sparkle, This here is Spike, also Applejack wow I guess it's a name for anypony. Okay, Where was I... oh yes. Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, And Pinkie Pie. Twilight introduced in the same order.

"Twilight dear, How about that party for Fluttershy?" Rarity interrupted

"Wait a minute. If there are two of everyone and there are two Fluttershy-" Said Pinkie

"Who is Butterscotch. That means Two ponies. And if there are two ponies who have the same birthday then that means-" Bubble said

"TWICE THE PARTIES AND TWICE THE FUN!" They both said jumping everywhere.

"Hey just thinking out loud here. If you-" The female dragon pointed to Twilight. "Opened a portal, Just this morning. Then why was Dusk gonna read the book after lunch?"

Suddenly There was silence.

"Well, Twilight, did Spike slip this morning?"

"No why?"

"Well there you have it. Apparently since Barbara is a girl and Spike is a boy, Events may vary according to their Physical, and Mental abilities. And it may happen in everyone in Equestria.

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH" Everyone chorused. Except of course, for Twilight.

"Wait so umm...were going to celebrate both our birthdays here?" Asked Butterscotch

"Not that were ummm...complaining" Said Fluttershy

"Apparently so darlings. Since Twilight can't use her magic today. And you're birthdays are tommorow" Replied Rarity
