Chapter 3: Matching reflection, missing mark

Back in Equestria, Princess Celestia was sitting on her throne. Worried about everything that could happen. 'Oh Luna! What if they don't find her!?' Celestia asked her sister. Luna put her hoof on Celestia's wing.

'They'll know Tia, remember, they have the camera that shows only ponies. So they will find her.' Luna replied, smiling.

'What if Twilight runs out of magic and can't get back!?'

'Rarity's a unicorn, they could use both their magic to get home.'

'What if Twilight doesn't remeber the spell to turn my filly into a pony again!?'

'That won't happen sister,' Luna began, just as a puff of pink smoke came into the room. Once it cleared, the mane six stood there proudly putting Kathryn on the ground. 'See? What I told you.'

Celestia walked up to Kathryn, smiling with tears coming from her eyes. 'Well done Twilight Sparkle, you brought her home.' Celestia picked her child with her magic and hugged her. 'Pure Hope, you are still as beautiful as before...' Slowly, Kathryn woke up, realizing she was now floating above the ground.

'Princess Celestia? Wow, oh, I mean your highness.' Kathryn bowed before Celestia, who put her down and laughed.

'Oh Pure Hope, you can call me mother...' Celestia said after she calmed down from laughing. 'Welcome home...'

'Wait, wha...' Kathryn looked down at her hands, which were now white hooves. 'OMG! I'm now a...wait.' She turned round to find Princess Luna holding a mirror. Kathryn saw she had a horn, then turned to look at Twilight. 'I have Twilight's horn...and Rarity's body...and Pinkie Pie's eyes...and Applejack's freckles...and Rainbow Dash's amazing hair!' Kathryn felt her tummy unhappy, she felt her PJs. 'Well, since I'm a unicorn..I guess I don't need clothes.' As she took her PJs off, she felt something on her side spread out. Celestia walked up to Kathryn and hugged her.

'Yes Pure Hope, you're a alicorn. A beautiful princess.' She said, Kathryn turned round to talk to Celestia face to face.

'Why am I a princess? I mean, I'm a human. Right?'

'No, you're were taken away from Equestria by Discord. You mean, you don't remember anything?'

'N...o...'

'Oh! I should have known! You don't even have your cutie mark anymore!

'Wha...I don't have my...!' Pure Hope ran back to the mirror, she looked in the mirror at her side and sighed. 'I'm a blank flank...'

Twilight ran to see Celestia and looked at her.'Celestia, what should we do? How do we get her memory back?'

Celestia didn't know until Luna walked up to Twilight and walked to everyone in the royal voice. 'I THINK I KNOW HOW, WE MUST GET HER TO REGAIN HER CUTIE MARK TO REGAIN HER MEMORY. SO, CELESTIA, HOW DID SHE GET HER CUTIE MARK?'

Celestia sighed, 'Well, she has to master the elements since she's all of them combined. Once she does, her cutie mark will appear and her element. Then Discord could be defeated and Pure Hope could take her rightful place as princess.' Kathryn's expression changed from an upset one to a frightened one.

'D-Discord? Wasn't he reformed?' she asked, realising something every wrong had happened in Equestria since she wasn't there. Then a evil laughter echoed though the throne room. Kathryn jumped up and hid behind Rainbow Dash. 'And he's here!'
