In an unknown location, a shimmering portal, formed and a yellow form emerged from it.

"That wasn't so bad," Fluttershy commented "I thought traveling to a new world would be hard. Maybe this won't be so bad, right girls?"

She turned to address her friends only to find that, there was no one else there.

"Twilight? Pinkie? Rainbow? Anypony?" Fluttershy asked, her nervousness rising "where are they? We all went through together, shouldn't we have all come out together?"

"Well, I guess I should find out where I am," she said "maybe somepony around here has seen my friends."

So she began to walk towards what appeared to be a city. When she arrived, she was greeted with an amazing sight.

Everyone in the city was an animal, albeit one that walked along on two legs and wore clothes.

"I don't know what this world is called, but I like it already," Fluttershy commented "I suppose I could hold off looking for my friends for just a few minutes."

The yellow Pegasus then began walking down the streets of the strange city, taking in the sights of animals.

"Looks like I was wrong, this place isn't scary at all," she commented "it's kind of like Ponyville, but with animals."

While Fluttershy continued to take in her surroundings, nearby, on the same street, two denizens of the city were conversing.

"I can't believe Snaptrap hasn't pulled anything yet," Kitty Katswell complained to his partner "we haven't seen hide nor hair of that rotten rat all day."

"Relax Kitty, that just means a day off," Dudley Puppy told her.

"Or it means that Snaptrap is lying in wait somewhere, just waiting to attack Petropolis with his newest evil plan," Kitty told him "that means we need to be vigilant; keeping our eyes open for anything suspicious."

"Like a yellow horse with wings?" Dudley asked.

"That's a rather random example, but sure," Kitty said.

"Oh good, cause there's one over there," Dudley said, pointing to where Fluttershy was walking.

"What the?" Kitty said, seeing the pony "hey you, stop!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, did I do something wrong?" Fluttershy asked, as the T.U.F.F agents approached her.

"I'm not sure yet," Kitty said, eying her suspiciously "I don't recall seeing you around Petropolis before."

"Well, the thing is, I'm kind of lost," Fluttershy explained "you see, my friends and I went through this magic portal to find a stolen book, and I ended up here, but my friends were gone."

"That is so sad!" Dudley said "Kitty, we have to help her!"

"Hmm, I guess she could be telling the truth," Kitty said "let's take her back to headquarters and see what the Chief thinks."

"Thank you for helping me," Fluttershy said.

"Yeah, yeah, don't thank us just yet," Kitty told her "we need to make sure you're not a threat first, and then we'll see about helping you find your friends."

"Come on, you'll love T.U.F.F," Dudley told Fluttershy, and walked off, with the yellow Pegasus following him intently.


Meanwhile, in another strange area, yet another pony was getting used to their surroundings.

"Whoa, where in the hay am I?" Rainbow Dash asked, "and where is everypony else?"

The blue Pegasus looked over the strange location she found herself in "this is a weird place" she commented "looks kinda like Manehattan, but dark and way weird."

She continued to fly around, looking for any signs of her friends or any life at all, when she heard some noises.

"What's that? Better check it out," she said and flew over to the source of the sounds.

She landed on the top of one of the tall buildings and peered down, and was amazed by what she saw.

"No…way!" she exclaimed.

Beneath her were a group of four turtles (or tortoises) on their hind legs and wielding weapons. They were fighting against some strange two-legged creatures dressed in black and carrying similar weapons.

Rainbow looked on as the turtles (tortoises) continued their fight, attacking the strange black clad creatures with chops & kicks and other martial arts maneuvers.

"Oh man, I didn't know turtles could fight like that!" Rainbow said, "I wonder if Tank can do that? Maybe I should see when I get back to Ponyville."

Her mind briefly off the fight, Rainbow turned her attention to the battle beneath her. It soon ended, as the turtles (tortoises?) drove off the black clad intruders.

"Man, is it me, or are the Foot getting easier to beat?" Raphael asked his brothers.

"I don't think it's you," Leonardo told him "but I'm worried; defeating the Foot shouldn't be this easy."

"Dude, why can't you ever look at the bright side of things?" Michelangelo asked.

"Leo's right you guys," Donatello added "the Shredder's goal is to eliminate us, and I don't think making it easy for us to beat his ninjas is part of that plan."

"All I know is, I kicked butt," Raph told him.

"You? I'm sorry, were the other three of us not here?" Leo asked him.

"You were; you just aren't as good as I am."

"Look Raph, just because…"

"That…was…awesome!" Rainbow exclaimed, having flown down to see the turtles in person "they were all, 'hi-yah' and you guys were all 'yah!' and 'bam!' and 'whack!'" she said excitedly "where'd you learn to do that? And could you teach me?"

The four turtles said nothing, instead taking in the sight of a rainbow maned flying horse talking to them.

"Um guys, I'm not the only one who sees this, right?" Mikey asked.

"You mean the weird blue flying horse?" Raph asked, "nope, I see it too."

"Actually, it's a Pegasus, a winged horse originating from Greek mythology," Donnie noted "although I have no idea what its' doing here in New York."

"You think it could be another Kraang mutant?" Leo asked.

"Yeah, the Kraang could really use a flying rainbow colored horse as part of their army of evil," Raph joked.

"Hey pal, who are calling a mutant?" Rainbow asked, flying close to face Raph, "okay, I actually don't know what a mutant is, but I'm guessing it's not nice! Besides, you aren't exactly normal turtles."

"Horsefly's got a point dude," Mikey commented.

"Horsefly?"

"Cause she's a horse, and she flies…"

"We get it!"

"Actually, the name's Rainbow Dash; maybe you've heard of me?" Rainbow said "only the fastest flyer in all Equestria."

"Is that near Jersey?" Mikey asked.

"Oh man, this pony brags just like Raph," Donnie commented.

"What? No way are you comparing me to a pony!" Raph replied angrily.

"You're right dude, I just realized; she's totally like Raph!" Mikey said, before his hot tempered brother pounced on him and began attacking him.

"You'll have to excuse them," Leo told Rainbow "now, Miss Dash…"

"Rainbow, if you don't mind."

"Right, Rainbow; perhaps you could tell us how you ended up here."

"Be happy to," Rainbow said "it all started earlier today…"


While Rainbow was telling her story to the strange turtles, far, far, away, another of her pony friends was trying to find her way around her new surroundings.

"I can't understand why Twilight's spell done split us up like this," Applejack commented "well, I'd best figure out where the hay I am so I can find my friends and we can catch that no good book stealer."

The cowpony began trotting through the strange land she'd ended up.

"Looks kinda like the Everfree Forest," she commented, thinking of the living forest back home "except it don't seem alive, or full of dangerous critters that could eat a pony."

"The plants sure ain't like the ones back home either," Applejack said, looking at some of the flora, which was pink in color.

"Anypony around!" she called out "hello? I could use some help!"

There was no response; "dang it, I get lost from my friends, and without Twi's magic, I can't get back to Equestria. I reckon this day can't get any worse."

Moments later, Applejack heard rustling in the plants, and turned around to see what was causing it. Out of them appeared a pair of strange figures.

"You see Sylvia, I knew I heard someone crying for help," said one, a short furry creature with shoes and a tall hat.

"Okay, so you were right; big deal," replied the other, a creature that looked like a blue camel.

"Who in the name of Princess Celestia are you two?" Applejack wondered.

"Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Wander and this is my friend Sylvia," the furry one said "and welcome to the planet Florana, home to all sorts of strange and interesting plants. We were just enjoying a little sightseeing when I heard you yelling and rushed right over."

"Well I greatly appreciate that," Applejack said "see, I got separated from my friends, and ended up here somehow."

"Separated from your friends? Oh, that's just awful!" Wander said, "well, rest assured miss…I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name."

"Applejack."

"Well rest assured Miss Applejack, Sylvia and I will do everything we can to reunite you with your lost friends," Wander told her "won't we Sylvia?"

"You're probably going to make me, so I guess so," Sylvia replied grumpily.

"That's the spirit!" Wander said happily "before we go, could I interest you in some lunch Miss Applejack? We were just about to eat, and we've got plenty to go around."

"Well that's right nice of ya Mr. Wander, I'd appreciate that," Applejack said, and she trotted off after the furry creature, as Sylvia followed them both into the thick foliage.


Next time, Pinkie, Twilight & Rarity end up stranded in odd worlds and find themselves confused by the strange creatures known as "humans."
