Alright, here's the last of the pre-written chapters. Not gonna lie to you all, I honestly like Equestria Girl's more then FiM and I have a lot planned for this and all the Equestria Girls movies and especially Sunset Shimmer so I hope you all enjoy this.


"Approaching Crystal Empire. All ponies stopping, please prepare to exit." The conductor of the train announced over the intercom as he stopped the train at the station to the Crystal Empire.

On this train was none other than the Mane 6 as well as Lincoln Loud. They were there because of a letter Twilight old foal sitter and sister-in-law said sent her a letter saying she, Luna, and Celestia, were all meeting up at the Crystal Empire and would love it if Twilight and her friends could meet them there.

Cadence also asked if she could meet Lincoln for herself. Twilight's sent a letter to her telling her about how she opened a portal to another universe that ended up bringing the Loud boy to Equestria. Twilight explained that he had a device that let him turn into 'Aliens' as he called them, and she also began to hear rumors from other ponies and the newspaper that strange creatures have started showing up and helping around Ponyville. Needless to say, the Princess of Love was curious.

But back with the Mane 6 and Lincoln, they were currently walking towards Cadence's crystal castle. Lincoln was taking a bit of time to admire the scenery of literally everything being made of crystal. "So this is the Crystal Empire huh?"

"Yes, isn't it magnificent darling?" Rarity said as she was probably the pony who enjoyed going to the Crystal Empire as the sight of an entire Empire made of Crystal was a mare's dream come true for her.

"Yeah, kinda reminds me of Diamondhead's home planet." Lincoln said as he remembered when Tetrax needed his help to restore his planet and people with Chromostone and how the entire planet was basically entirely made of crystal.

Rarity's eyes widened at this. She's seen, and fanmared a bit, Diamondhead before. And an entire planet full of them. "You must take me there someday." Rarity demanded as she looked Lincoln in the eye with a serious look."

"Sure thing." Lincoln chuckled as he and the Mane 6 made their way into the castle.

As they were walking in, Applejack approached Twilight and said. "Hoo-wee! Your very first princess sumit. You must be over the moon, Twilight." The farm pony told her Alicorn friend.

"Oh, I'm excited." Twilight answered with a smile before her expression turned to a small frown. "But I'm also really nervous."

"You're nervicited!" Pinkie said as she suddenly came in on the two, startling them a bit. "It's like you want to jump up and down and yell, YAY ME!" Pinkie Pie emphasized her point by bouncing up and down.

"But you also want to curl up in a teeny-tiny ball and hide at the same time!" Pinkie continued again as she curled up into a tight ball to show her point. However, when she uncurled, a particular sound effect was heard that Lincoln recognized and made him look around.

"Where'd that come from?" The Loud boy asked nopony in particular as he swore he heard the Transformer's sound effect.

Pinkie then gave a big smile as she ruffled Twilight's mane a bit. "We've all been there!" The party pony reassured the princess.

"I'm there almost everyday." Fluttershy said as she averted her gaze.

"You wouldn't believe how much I felt it when I first got the Omnitrix." Lincoln reassured the Alicorn.

"You got no reason to fret, Twi." Applejack said as she faced the purple Princess. "Everythings gonna be just-"

But before the farm pony could finish, Applejack's marefriend suddenly rush up to Twilight and yelled. "Twilight!" Rarity yelled as she grabbed Twilight's cheeks. "Oh, sorry darling. But I just realized you're not wearing your crown. I know you don't like wearing it all the time, but don't you think if you're meeting with all the other princess's you should be wearing it? You haven't forgotten it back in Ponyville, have you?"

"It's in my bag." Twilight said as she gestured her head behind her. Everypony looked to see a bag with Twilight's Cutie Mark on it that Spike was patting. "I just feel a little self-conscious about wearing it. Even in front of the other princesses. I'm...I'm still not quite comfortable with all this Princess stuff."

"I haven't even gotten used to these yet." Twilight as she raised up her wings. She then started flapping them and raised up from the ground for a bit, but only for a few seconds before falling down. Even after a month of being an Alicorn she still wasn't used to flying.

"You're a princess Twilight! Embrace it!" Rarity said with a smile before she started having a mini fantasy. "I'm telling you, if I had a crown like that, I would never take it off. Why'd I sleep in the thing!"

"Not when were sleeping you don't." Applejack said as she gave her marefriend a deadpan expression with Rarity giving a sheepish smile in response.

Twilight simply looked away with a smile as she said. "Come on everypony, let's not keep the princess's waiting." Everypony muttered in agreement as they went off to the throne room of the Crystal Castle where the three other princesses were waiting.

With Twilight leading them, the group made their way to big double doors that lead to the castle's throne room. When Twilight opened them, they were immediately greeted by two rows of crystal pony guards playing trumpets to welcome them as that had flags with Celestia's Cutie Mark on them. In front of them was the three princesses of Equestria in front of the Crystal Empire Throne.

As Twilight walked forward and looked around at the rather...eccentric welcoming for her, she ended up bumping into somepony. She looked up and saw it was a Pegasus stallion with blue eyes and melanin colored fur and a blue mane and tail. He was wearing gold colored armor that hid his Cutie Mark.

After Twilight bumped into him, she quickly backed up as the Stallion announced. "Her highness, Princess Twilight Sparkle!"

Once he had the announcement, the princesses all walked up to Twilight with Cadence giggling and giving her sister-in-law a nuzzle. "Twilight! I haven't seen you since the coronation." Cadence said, excited to see the purple Alicorn again.

"Hey, what's up." Lincoln said as he and the rest of Twilight's friends walked up to the princesses.

Cadence looked up and Lincoln and quickly deduced this was the one Twilight talked about in her letter and gave the Loud boy a smile as she held a hoof out. "You must be Lincoln, it's so nice to meet you!"

Lincoln kneeled down to Cadence's level and shook her hoof with his hand and said. "Same. You must be Cadence, Twilight's told me about you."

"She's told me about you as well." Cadence said as she and Lincoln separated limbs. "I've heard your quite the character."

"Well I'm only as good as the author writes me." Lincoln said as he stuffed his hands in his hoodie pockets.

"What?" Cadence asked with a confused expression.

"Not important." Lincoln quickly shrugged off while sending a wink to the audience before turning back to Cadence. "But yeah, I'm quite the unique individual, not to brag."

Cadence giggled in response as she said. "Well I would love to get to meet you, maybe I can show you around the castle while we talk?" The Princess of Love offered.

"Hey, that sounds pretty fun." Lincoln said before he turned to the Mane 6. "That cool with you guys?"

"Go ahead!" Twilight said with a smile as the rest of her friends nodded.

Lincoln gave them all a thumbs up as he turned to Cadence. "Lead the way."

"Ok, so, what are these 'Aliens' Twilight told me about?" Cadence asked as everypony saw them leave the throne room and into the hallways of the castle.

Once that was done, Celestia walked up to her former student and said. "We have so much to discuss." Celestia said as her sister Luna walked next to her and nodded. "But it can wait, why don't you all get comfortable in your rooms and we can discuss everything tomorrow."

Everypony chattered in agreement as they went off to the rooms that were set up for them.


Back with Lincoln and Cadence…

"OH MY CELESTIA! AHAHAHAHAHA! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" Cadence laughed harder than she ever has before, forcing both her and Lincoln to stop so she could let out her howls of laughter.

"It...seemed like a good idea at the time." Lincoln said as he lowered his head and scratched the back of it with an embarrassed blush came to his face. Currently Lincoln was telling Cadance about the time him and his best friend Clyde set up a 'Girl Guru' stand to raise money for a fundraiser.

"Did you seriously get hit with salt and vinegar pies at the end?" Cadance said as it was taking all her strength and willpower not to fall on her back and clench her gut laughing.

"Yeah, yeah, laugh it up." Lincoln said grumpily as he crossed his arms and looked away. "At least I didn't do something as stupid as you about a crush."

"Ahahahaha, yeah me and Shiny did some crazy things to get each other's attention." Cadence laughed as she wiped a tear of laughter from her eye. She ended up sharing some stories from when she was a teenager and the crazy things she and Shining Armor did to get each other's attention and with a lot of them being...to put it bluntly, completely stupid.

"Well, it's settled. We're both idiots." Lincoln settled for them as Cadence giggled in response.

"I guess we are." Cadence laughed a bit as they approached a set of doors that were larger then than the others. "Oh, this is my room. Wanna see?"

Lincoln rose an eyebrow as he asked. "Are you sure that's ok?" He didn't want to invade someone else's privacy, especially a princess.

Cadence simply rolled her eyes at the Loud boy and said. "Lincoln, it's fine. It's just me and Shining's bedroom." Cadence reassured him before turning around and smirking and muttering under her breath. "Besides, it's not like it's me and Shiny's special room."

"What was that?" Lincoln asked, not quite hearing what Cadence said.

"Nothing!" The pink Alicorn quickly said as she opened the doors. "Anyway, it's perfectly fine."

"If you say so." Lincoln said with a shrug as he followed Cadence inside. Once inside he saw that the very middle of the room had a giant bed worthy of a princess made of the finest materials along with giant blankets and pillows.

He saw there was a vanity with a big mirror and make up over it and draws that most likely contained similar items. Near the side of the room he saw some pony manikins with armor on them. Most likely belonging to Twilight brother and Cadence's husband Shining Armor as Twilight told them that he used to be the head of Celestia's royal guard.

"Nice~" Lincoln said as he looked over the room. "You royal's sure know how to live."

Cadence giggled in response as she said. "Oh, it's nothing special really." Cadence said modestly. Just then she looked around the room, seemingly to make sure nopony else was in there right them.

Cadence then gestured Lincoln to come closer to her. The white-headed boy raised his eyebrow at this but decided to kneel down to get on Cadence's level. The Princess of Love then whispered to Lincoln. "So hey, I have something I wanna tell you. But you can't tell anypony else, especially Twilight. I want it to be a surprise for her."

"My lips are sealed." Lincoln reassured the pink Alicorn. Cadence then began whispering to Lincoln at a volume quiet enough that surely only he could hear. Lincoln's eyes widened when Cadence finished as he said. "Woah, are you serious?"

Cadence gave a gleeful smile and a nod. "Well congratulations!" Lincoln said to the Alicorn princess with a big smile of his own.

"Thanks!" Cadence said happily before giving Lincoln a serious look. "Remember, no telling."

"Don't worry I won't." Lincoln said as he rose his hands up. Just then Lincoln's eyes looked out the window behind Cadence and saw it was pitch black outside. "Woah, it's later than I thought."

"Yeah, guess we talked for longer than we thought." Cadence said with a sheepish chuckle at how long the two ended up talking to each other. "We better get to bed, there's a room about 3 doors away you can use."

"Thanks, have a good night Cadence." Lincoln said as he exited the Alicorns bedroom.

"Good night Lincoln." Cadence as she jumped up to her bed and got comfy. Unfortunatly for her Shining Armor was away on a mission right now, but she would be fine sleeping on her own for a few nights.


In Twilight's room, she was currently sound asleep in her bed as Spike was sleeping in a basket a little bit away from Twilight bed. Next to Twilight's bed was a nightstand with a lamp on it, as well as Twilight's crown. The crown as gold and the centerpiece was none other than Element of Magic. The most powerful of the elements of harmony was a dark pink jewel in a similar shape to Twilight's Cutie Mark.

Both the Alicorn and Dragon were sound asleep, and due to this they were unable to notice a turquoise magic aura cover itself on the doorknob and open the door up. Just then a pony snuck into the purple Alicorn's room. Their appearance couldn't be seen due to a cloak they were wearing.

The pony made their way over to Twilight's bed, passing by Spike still sleeping in the basket. They walked up to the nightstand and looked at Twilight's crown before their yellow horn glowed turquoise as they picked up the Element of Harmony. As they picked it up, they ended up accidentally knocking the lamp off, but the cloaked pony quickly picked it up with their magic and set it on the nightstand again.

The figure looked to see if Twilight and Spike were still asleep. Once they saw they were, the clocked pony slipped the crown under their cloak and then brought up decoy crown to put in the real one's place.

Once they made the swap, the figure started to walk away. However, they didn't notice that Spike rolled around in his sleep, causing his tail to spread out right in front of the cloaked pony. This caused the mystery pony to trip and crash forward, causing both Spike and Twilight to awake.

"Huh! What?!" Spike said as he woke up from his tail being pulled on.

Twilight then looked around and saw the cloaked pony in front her. The cloak parted a bit, but this was enough for Twilight to see the saddle bag the mystery Unicorn was wearing and see her crown inside. "My crown! She's got my crown!" Twilight shouted as she pointed at the thief.

The cloaked pony quickly started to run away as Twilight and Spike got up and started chasing the cloaked Unicorn. "Stop! Please!" Twilight yelled as she gave chase to the thief. "She stole my crown!"

Twilight yelling caused the rest of her friends to wake up and quickly leave their go and try to aid their friend in the chase.

In Lincoln's room, the human shot up from bed with a sleep expression on his face. "Huh-who-what?!" Lincoln said as he looked around with his brain still trying to reboot from suddenly being woken up.

Back with Twilight, as she chased the cloaked figure, her horn glowed purple as she suddenly disappeared and teleport right in front of the cloaked pony. "Stop!" Twilight ordered. But she watched as the cloaked pony kept running as their own horn started glowing a bright turquoise color.

Suddenly the figure did their own teleportation spell and teleported right behind Twilight. The figure's teleportation caused their cloak to come off revealing their appearance. They turned out to be a mare with yellow fur to match her horn, cyan eyes, and yellow and red striped mane and tail. Their Cutie Mark consisted of a sun that half yellow and half red with the center of the sun being a darker yellow with red in it.

The mare looked at Twilight with a cocky smirk, the crown still in her saddle bag, before she started to run again. Twilight quickly ran back after her and started closing in, even using her teeth to try and catch her tail.

When that didn't work, Twilight straight up tackled the unicorn leading them both to go tumbling into another room. The room that held the crystal mirror. When both mares feel to the floor, the crown came flying out of the yellow Unicorn's saddle bag and ended up bouncing around the room. Right as the rest of the Mane 6 came into the room, they witness as Twilight's crown ended up flying towards the mirror, and when it touched it the mirror glowed, and the crown was sent right into the mirror.

The Mane 6 all gasped as they witness the crown getting sent right into the mirror as Twilight faced the Unicorn who stole her crown and said. "What did you do?"

However, the thief simply gave a cocky smirk as she teleported in front of the mirror and said to her. "Sorry it had to be this way." The unicorn said in a cocky tone and if you listened closely enough, complete bitterness. Especially when she finished by saying. "Princess!"

And with that, the Mare jumped into the mirror herself. Disappearing into it as the Mane 6 gasped again. Just then footsteps were heard as everypony watched as a still sleepy Lincoln came up to everypony. "I-I'm here! Wh-what's g-going on!?" He asked as the Mane 6 all gave him nervous looks.


THE NEXT MORNING

The following morning, the Mane 6, Lincoln, and the princesses were all gathered in the throne room. Currently the Mane 6 just got done explaining the situation of what happened last night to the Princesses.

"Damn it!" Lincoln cursed as he looked down in shame and tightened his fist. "If only I had been faster, I could have stopped it!"

"It's alright Lincoln." Twilight reassured the human as she looked down. "None of us could have been prepared for last night."

Celestia hummed in thought as she took in everything Twilight and her friends told her. "The way you described her, it must be Sunset Shimmer." Celestia explained as everypony gave the Princess of the Sun a confused look. "She's a former student of mine."

Everypony gasped at the information as Rainbow Dash asked. "She used to be your student?!" The Pegasus yelled in surprise.

"Yes, in fact she was my personal student before Twilight." Celestia further explained as she pointed a hoof towards Twilight, who's eyes widened in surprise.

Just then Cadence lowered her head as a sad look came to her face. "Sunset…" Cadence muttered in a depressed tone.

Everypony looked to Cadence with a concerned look as Lincoln asked. "Cadence are you alright?"

Cadence gave a sigh as she gave an explanation for why she suddenly turned sad. "Well, you see, I actually used to foal sit Sunset when she was young before Twilight." Cadence explained as everypony's eyes widened a bit at the information. "She was really shy and nervous around everything when she was young but I loved spending time with her. In fact, she had a lot of things in common with Twilight, and when Twilight became Celestia's student as well and I started foal sitting her as well, I wanted to introduce you two to each other so you could possibly be friends."

Cadence smiled at the happy memories before she frowned again as sadness overtook the pink Alicorn again. "But she eventually grew out of needing me apparently. And then one day she left due to a completely petty reason...and she never even said goodbye to me. Ever." Tears began to build up at the memories of the mare she used to foal sat betrayal and especially at not getting a proper goodbye.

"Why'd she leave?" Applejack asked as Luna went to comfort Cadence.

"She grew jealous of Twilight." Celestia answered as everypony looked to the purple Alicorn.

"Oh me?" Twilight asked as she pointed a hoof towards herself.

"Yes." Celestia answered with a nod. "When I took you in as my student, she started to get bitter and jealous of the time I spent on you. She eventually became cruel and dishonest. I tried to help her, but she ended up abandoning her studies and pursued her own path. One that sadly led to her stealing the crown.

"She tried to replace Twilight's crown with this." Spike said as he held up the fake crown Sunset Shimmer tried to replace with Twilight's real one.

Celestia moved her head down to inspect the fake crown and said. "I suppose Sunset Shimmer thought she wouldn't notice right away that this was not yours. And by the time you did, it would be too late to go after your own crown and Element of Harmony."

"But I don't understand. Where did she go? Where did she take the crown?" Twilight asked with confusion in her voice.

"From what you guys told me the crown and Sunset ended up going through that strange mirror." Lincoln said as he and everypony else followed Celestia as she started walking away.

"You'll soon know more about this place then even I do." Celestia told her former student as she led the group through the halls of the crystal castle.

The room Celestia led everypony was the room the mirror that Sunset went through was in. Princess Luna stepped up and begun explaining. "This is no ordinary mirror, it is a gateway to another world, a gateway that opens once every 30 moons."

"Hey wait a minute." Rainbow Dash suddenly spoke up. "Gateway to another world? Like the kind that brought Lincoln here? I thought it took Alicorn magic to open those kinds of portals up."

"Hey yeah, what gives?" Lincoln asked as he gave an accusing glare to the royal sisters.

"This is a little different than that particular spell." Luna explained as suddenly Pinkie put her hoof on the mirror causing it to sparkle.

"Ooooh! Sparkly!" Pinkie said as Luna gave an annoyed look and used her magic to remove Pinkie from the portal.

"It's a special portal created by Starswirl the Bearded that uses the magic from the moon to open up the gateway." Luna explained as everypony nodded at the lunar princess's words. "It's always been kept in the Cantorlot Castle, but when Princess Cadence took over the Crystal Empire, we sent it here for her to watch over."

Princess Celestia then walked up to the group with a serious look on her face. "I had always hoped Sunset Shimmer would use it to return, to come back to Equestria seeking my guidance." She said as she closed her eyes. "Obviously, this is not what happened."

Twilight currently help but feel uneasy at the tension coming off the solar Princess. Just the Cadence looked to the purple Alicorn and said. "Twilight, you must use the mirror to go into this other world and retrieve your crown." Cadence said as Twilight started moving towards the mirror portal. "Without it, the other Elements of Harmony have no power, and Equestria without one of its most important means of defense."

Twilight nodded as she looked at the mirror portal in front of her with a nervous expression. "Your crown does not belong in the place Sunset Shimmer now calls home." Luna said seriously as she looked to Twilight. "And in her position, your Element of Harmony will no doubt be used to bring harm to the inhabitants of this other realm. They will not have the power to defend themselves."

Luna then levitated a saddlebag onto Twilight as Celestia stepped up to her former student. "Do you understand the importance of your task?" Celestia asked the purple alicorn in a serious tone.

"Of course." Twilight instantly answered as she looked to the Princess of the Sun.

"Good. Then you must go at once." Celestia told Twilight.

Twilight took a deep breath to ready herself for her important mission and then started walking forward, closer to the mirror.

But just then Rainbow Dash quickly rushed forward in front of Twilight and stopped the Alicorn in her tracks. "Woah! Woah! Woah! She's goin, we're goin with her!" Rainbow Dash said as the rest of the Mane 6 appeared at her side. "Right girls?"

"Ooh! I'm so nervicited!" Pinkie cheered with a nervicited smile on her face.

"You do realize that's not a real word, right?" Applejack said to the pink pony with a deadpan look.

Twilight gave her friends a grateful, but then Celestia said. "I'm afraid I can't let you go." The solar Princess told everypony.

"What?! Why not!?" Rainbow Dash demanded to know.

"Sending all of you could upset the balance of this alternate world," She explained to the group of ponies in front of her. "Creating havoc that would make it impossible to get the crown back from Sunset Shimmer."

"Then I'll go with here!" Lincoln said as he stepped forward.

Celestia however shook her head and Lincoln and said. "I thank you for the offer Lincoln, but I already said any more of you going could create imbalance."

"Yeah, but they belong in this world." Lincoln said as he pointed the Mane 6, minus Twilight, as he continued talking. "If I'm not causing any imbalance here, I shouldn't cause any imbalance there so I can safely help out."

Celestia sighed as she began saying. "Look, Lincoln-"

But Celestia was quickly interrupted by the Loud boy as he said firmly while looking the Sun Princess right in the eyes. "I'm going. I'm not taking no for an answer." Lincoln said sternly before he rolled out his sleeve to show off the Ultimatrix. "And I can and will use violence if you try to stop me."

Celestia glared hard at Lincoln's eyes. Everypony quickly got nervous as they started backing up as the Ultimatrix user and solar Princess glared each other down. They feared an actual fight could break out between the two. But ultimately, Celestia sighed as she said. "Fine. I suppose some back up would be good."

Lincoln rolled up his sleeve and walked next to Twilight and crossed his arms. "So, it's decided then." Lincoln said directly to the ruler of Equestria before turning to Lincoln. "Anything else we need to know."

Luna shook her head to ease herself of the previous tension and used her horn to create an image of the moon moving high in the sky. "On the third day, when the moon reaches its peak in the night sky, the portal will close. And once it does, it will be another 30 moons before you will be able to use it to return."

"Alright, get the crown back before the end of the third day, got it." Lincoln said as he punched a fist into his palm. He then turned to Twilight and asked. "You ready?"

Twilight swallowed a lump in her throat as and nodded. "As ready as I'll ever be." The Alicorn answered nervously as the two started walking towards the portal.

When they were right in front of the portal, Lincoln said. "On the count of three?" Twilight took a deep breath and nodded in response. "One...two...THREE!" When Lincoln got to three, the two decided to just go for it and jump right into the mirror, disappearing into the portal.

When the two disappeared, Spike watched with a panicked look before he suddenly bolted towards the mirror. "SPIKE NO!" All the ponies yelled as they watched dragon continue running towards the portal and could do nothing as the dragon suddenly jumped in.

Inside the portal, Lincoln, Twilight, and Spike found themselves flying through a rainbow vortex and screaming as they were sent swirling towards a bright light.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"

And then all three of them were blinded by an incredibly bright flash of light.


"Ugh...my head." Lincoln groaned as he rubbed his head and sat up. He tried to open his eyes but winced a bit as sunset suddenly hit him.

"What happened?" He heard Twilight's voice next to him.

"Uh, Twilight…" They heard Spike's voice in front of them.

"Spike. You're not supposed to...Spike?" Twilight was saying but when she regained her vision and looked to where Spike was talking, she saw what appeared to be a dog with Spike's colors such as having purple fur, and a light green furred under belly with darker green floppy ears. He was also wearing a spiked collar with a yellow pendant that had a heart in it. "Are you a dog?"

Spike looked over himself, turning around a few times and said. "I think so." The dragon turned dog answered.

"Ah, my heads killing me." Twilight heard Lincoln groan as the two faced each other.

"Lincoln, are you ok?" Twilight asked with concern as she watched Lincoln rub his head and open his eyes completely to look at her.

"Yeah, it's just a head...woah." Suddenly Lincoln forgot all about his headache as he looked at Twilight with widened eyes.

"What? What's wrong!" Twilight quickly asked in a panicked tone.

"Uh, hehe, well you just might wanna take a look at yourself." Lincoln said with a small smirk and a chuckle at what Twilight had become.

"Huh, what do you-" Twilight was saying as she brought your hooves to her face...only the weren't hooves. They were hands. "What?" Twilight gasped as she looked over herself and saw that she had ended up turning into a human just like Lincoln. She had purple skin and her eyes were the same and her hair went down past her back. She wore a light blue blouse with a dark pink ribbon and a purple skirt that had her Cutie Mark on the side. She also had long purple boots with black bottoms and dark pink socks. And the saddle bag she had one ended up turning into a backpack.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-" Twilight screamed before Lincoln put his hand over her mouth.

"Stop screaming! It's alright! You're just a human now!" Lincoln said in a reassuring tone as he still held his hand over Twilight mouth. Twilight nodded in response as she tried to calm down. "You're fine. Ok?" Lincoln continued to hold his hand over Twilight mouth as the Alicorn turned human nodded again. "You're not gonna scream?" Twilight nodded in response as Lincoln removed his hand from Twilight's hand.

"Ok, I'm ok. I'm ok. I'm ok." Twilight said to herself to calm down. After a few deep breaths, she finally calmed down a bit and said. "Ok, I'm good."

"Well at least we got a human here with us otherwise we'd have no idea what to do." Spike said with a sigh of relief.

"Yeah." Twilight said as Lincoln gave them a thankful smile. "Wait, a second...human." Twilight then turned to Lincoln and looked him in the eye and said. "Wait, Lincoln, if I turned into a human here, do you think this is your world?"

Lincoln hummed a bit at the question as he scratched his chin in thought. "I'm not sure, the odds are infinity to one. Plus, humans don't normally have purple skin. And dogs don't have purple or green fur." Lincoln said as he looked around and saw more humans walking around with most of them having very unnatural skin colors for humans back in his world. "But this is still a human world meaning I got a bit of a home field advantage."

"Great! Cause we're gonna need every advantage we can get if we're gonna get my crown back!" Twilight said as she looked at her hands for a moment before making a fist with one and punching it into her open palm like she sees Lincoln do sometimes.

"Right! Come on, let's go!" Lincoln said with a determined expression. Twilight nodded...but didn't get up off her knees. "You, uh, you gonna get up?"

Twilight looked to herself and looked at her legs before giving Lincoln a sheepish smile and saying. "Could, uh, could you help me up please?"

Lincoln rolled his eyes before walking up Twilight and offering his hand to her. "Here, take my hand." Lincoln said as Twilight looked at her hand for a moment and wiggled around her fingers. She then steadily moved it over to the hand Lincoln offered and wrapped her fingers around it.

Once it was secure Lincoln gently pulled Twilight up to her brand-new feet. When she was standing, Twilight quickly lost her balance due to not being used to being bipedal. Luckily, Lincoln was able to watch her before she fell. "Ok, easy does it." Lincoln said as she helped Twilight balanced herself. "Look, if you wanna fit in, you gotta learn to act and behave like a human."

"Yeah, and I better get used to it fast. We only have 3 days to find my crown." Twilight said as she tried to copy what she's seen from Lincoln and started walking around a little to get used to her head. She then walked in front of Lincoln and looked between him and herself and couldn't help but give Lincoln a smug smile and cross her arms. "I'm taller then you now."

Lincoln's eyes widened as he compare the height of himself and the purple skinned human and said. "No way, we're the same height!"

"Actually..." Twilight said as she looked to her hand for a bit before straightening it out and using it to measure the maximum height of herself and Lincoln. "I have about 2 millimeters on you."

Lincoln gave Twilight a deadpanned look in response and said. "Twilight, no one counts millimeters here!" The Loud boy told the Alicorn turned human. "That only makes you taller then me in Canada."

Twilight was about to retort, but noted the last word Lincoln said. "I don't know what this Canada is, but it sounds very weird."

"It is." Lincoln confirmed with a nod. "But come on, we gotta get back on track.

"Hey, why don't we check out that castle over there?" Spike suggested as he pointed a paw forward. Lincoln and Twilight looked in front of them and saw a big two story building with windows all over the walls, horse head statues on the corner of the roof and a dome at the top with a big block on top of that with the very tip top of the clock having a red flag.

"Good idea Spike! Let's go!" Twilight said before Lincoln stopped her by grabbing her arm.

"That's not a castle." Lincoln said simply as he looked over the building.

"It's not? Then what is it?" Twilight asked as she looked over the building and noted how many similarities it had to a castle.

"It looks like a High School." Lincoln told them as the Equestrian's gave him raised eyebrows. "It's building where you go for education."

"Education!" Twilight said excitedly as she stared at the building with stars in her eyes. "That should give us all the information we need about this world and getting my crown back! Let's go!" Twilight then quickly started running towards the place of learning.

"Twilight wait! Not so-" Lincoln was yelling but stopped and wince when Twilight tripped and fell on her face. "Fast."

Lincoln and Spike quickly walked over to the Alicorn turned human as she raised her dazed face. "Ooooow." The purple skinned girl groaned as Spike walked in front of her face.

"Twilight, are you ok?" Spike asked with a concerned look.

Twilight gave another groan as Lincoln knelt down and offered his hand again. "Maybe stick to just walking for now." Lincoln said with a small smile and being forced to hold in a snicker.

"Yeah. Walking sounds good." Twilight said as she took Lincoln's hand again and let the white head help her to her feet.

With Lincoln's help, Twilight and Spike were able to go up the stairs leading to the high school, once they reached the doors, Twilight saw they didn't have a knob on them and tried to use her magic to open it...only she couldn't. "My magic, it's gone!"

"Makes sense." Spike said as he looked up at the now teenage girl. "You don't exactly have your horn."

Just then Twilight rushed up to Lincoln and grabbed his hoodie and asked in a panic. "Humans can use magic right?!" She asked desperately.

"Well, sort of." Lincoln said as he pushed Twilight off him. "At least in my world, humans are capable of learning how to use magic by drawing power from a separate realm named the Ledgerdomain, but I have no idea how it would work here. Heck, I don't even know how to use magic in my own world."

Twilight made a loud groan as she hung her head low. "Great…" She complained with a sigh.

Lincoln gave Twilight a reassuring smile as he patted her shoulder. "Relax, it'll be fine. We just need to find your crown, grab it, and get the heck outta dodge. Easy." Lincoln told the Alicorn told human as she raised her head up to look at him. "Come on, let's head inside."

Twilight watched as Lincoln simply gave the class door a light push and opened it up completely for the Equestrians. "Here, after you two."

"Thanks Lincoln." Spike and Twilight said in unison as they entered the High School and looked around with Lincoln following close behind. When they entered the High School, Twilight and Spike quickly started to look around the place.

Just then Twilight gaze caught onto a glass case filled with first place trophies, ribbons, and banners. Twilight and Spike walked up the trophy case with Lincoln following them to make sure the two wouldn't get into trouble. Once Twilight approached the trophy case, she put her hands on the class as Spike peeked his head up to look. "What do you two think? Other artifacts she stole from Equestria?"

"No this is just the School Trophy Case." Lincoln answered as he walked up next to Twilight.

"Trophy case?" Spike asked as he looked up the white head.

"Yeah, schools have teams for things like sports and academics and compete with other schools to see which team is better. And then the winning team gets trophy or an award of some kind and their put here for the whole school to see." Lincoln explained as Twilight looked at all the trophies again.

"Well that's a relief." Twilight before she noticed she could see her reflection in the glass and her full human body. She took her time to look over herself before she turned to Lincoln. "Ok, I don't how long were gonna be here, so Lincoln, can you tell me some basic human information so I can fit in a little better."

Lincoln scratched his chin as he thought about which things to tell Twilight. Once he was done thinking, he said. "Ok, first off, you gotta start using my terminology. Like everybody, anybody, somebody. None of that pony talk. Also, in scenario's where you would say Celestia, either say gosh or God." Lincoln explained as Twilight nodded her head and made sure to memorize what Lincoln was saying. "If a bathroom is labeled with a stick figure, it's the boy's bathroom, if it's labeled with a stick figure in a dress, it's the girl's bathroom. Keep your cloths on! Don't use your mouth to pick up stuff or write with. And finally, if anyone ask, Undertale is the best RPG of all time."

"Terminology, bathroom, cloths, hands, Undertale. Got it!" Twilight said as she listed off what Lincoln said with her finger and nodded with a serious look, determined to remember these things so she can properly fit in with the humans.

Lincoln mentally chuckled at the last bit but kept it to himself. Just then they heard the bell ring and looked up. "Uh-oh." Lincoln said as he knew what was about to happen.

"What's happening?" Twilight as she looked for the source of the ringing bell. Just then Lincoln took Twilights hand and picked up Spike as he quickly started running for cover. "Lincoln! What's going on?!"

"Quick! We gotta take cover!" Lincoln said as he started running towards a row of green lockers. Luckily, they made in time to avoid a crowd of students that started flooding the center of the high school.

"Woah, that was a close one." Spike said with relief as he jumped down from Lincoln's arms.

"Yeah, you wanna watch out for when the bell rings." Lincoln warned them as he let go of Twilight's hand. "It's everyone for themselves when the bell rings."

"Alright, now that we've avoided that," Twilight begun saying as she straightened up her skirt. "We can get to looking for-OW!" As Twilight talked, she walked forward and ended up walking straight into an open locker door.

"Oooooh!" Lincoln and Spike winced as Twilight fell down onto her butt.

"Oh shoot! Sorry about that!" A male voice apologized to the purple skinned girl. Twilight rubbed her head and looked up to see a boy with a blue mohawk and blue eyes and melanin skin. He wore a black jacket with a red, white, and blue strip on the center and sleeves, a white shirt with a lightning bolt on it and jeans with black and white shoes.

The boy offered his hand to help Twilight up, and the purple skinned girl looked at it for a second before taking it and the boy helping her up. "You ok?" He asked Twilight.

"Uh, yeah, thanks." Twilight said a little sheepishly.

The boy gave Twilight a small smile in response before he started walking away. Lincoln then walked up to Twilight and said. "Ok, new human rule, look before you walk." Lincoln said in a joking tone. Twilight and Spike simply gave him a deadpanned look in response. Lincoln cleared his throat awkwardly before he said. "L-let's just keep looking."

"Yeah." The Equestrians said in unison as the three went off again.

The three walked around the high school for a little bit. Twilight made sure to look at everything extensively to get a knowing for her and asked Lincoln a question about everything she thought would be important to which the Loud boy answered every one of them.

Lincoln also told Spike to keep his mouth shut when around other people as talking dogs weren't exactly a common occurrence.

Thankfully as they were exploring the educational institute, Twilight got much better at the use of her new body parts like her hands, legs, nose, and ears. And as they were walking past a row of lockers…

"I'm so sorry. I just found it and I thought I should give it to her. I didn't know you had dropped it." They heard a rather timid and soft voice say from around the corner.

"Did you hear that?" Spike asked as he raised on of his green floppy.

"Yeah…it, it sounds really familiar." Lincoln said as he's swore, he's heard that voice before but couldn't put his finger on it.

"I think it came from over here." Twilight said as she pointed the end of the row of lockers.

Lincoln, Twilight and Spike all peaked their head behind the corner and saw two girls having a conversation. The first girl they saw looked extremely shy and scared of the situation she was in and looked extremely familiar. She had light yellow skin and blue eyes with long pink hair with a butterfly clip in it. She wore a sleeveless white tank top and yellow backpack with a green skirt with pink frills that had three butterflies on it and green boots with white bottoms.

They couldn't see the second girls face due to her back being turned to them, but they could see she had yellow skin, red and yellow striped hair, a leather jacket, an orange skirt, and black boots with pink marks on them.

"Well, I did, and I was about to get it before you swooped in and ruined everything!" The red and yellowed haired girl yelled to the pink haired girl rudely. "You shouldn't pick up things that don't belong to you."

"It…doesn't really belong to you either." The shy girl said quietly. Just then she was pinned to the lockers as the mean girl slammed her hands on the ones behind the shy girl causing her back into them and look up at the mean girl fearfully.

"Excuse me?" The red and yellow haired girl said threateningly.

The shy girl whimpered as she slid down onto the floor and whimpered out. "Nothing."

Lincoln and Twilight started glaring at the mean girl with Spike embracing the dog he had become and started growling. "That's what I thought." The mean girl said to the small one in a mocking tone. "It's as good as mine and you know it. You really are pathetic! It's no wonder your best friends are all stray animals!"

At this point Lincoln and his group couldn't just watch anymore as the Loud boy stepped forward and yelled at the mean girl. "HEY! LEAVE HER ALONE!"

"How dare you speak to her that way!" Twilight yelled in addition to what Lincoln said.

"What did you two say?" The mean girl challenged allowing them to see her face and her cyan eyes and magenta shirt that had a particular sun mark on it.

Lincoln and Twilight then stomped forward with the mean girl doing the same leading to Lincoln and Twilight staring the mean girl down. And all by standers nearby quickly got out of there while they could.

"She said how dare you speak to her like that." Lincoln said in his own threatening tone. "Or else!"

The mean girl simply scoffed and gave the white head a cocky grin. "Or else what?" She challenged while putting her hands to her hips.

Lincoln glared the girl right in the eye as his right hand twitched, he had to fight off the urge to go hero and kick this girl's ass. So, Lincoln simply gave a warning. "You don't wanna know 'or else."

The bully simply rolled her eyes and said. "Right, I'm so scared." Sarcasm practically leaked out of her voice.

"You don't have any right to talk to her or anypo-one, like that!" Twilight said while having to correct herself from using Equestrian terminology.

The bully simply scoffed again as she said. "You two must be new here. So, let me give it to you straight, I can talk to anyone anyway I want." She then flicked Twilight's chin, causing the purple skinned girl's head to go up. "Got it!" She then went in to flick Lincoln, but just then the Loud boy's hand came in quicker than she could see and grabbed her wrist in a vice grip that caused her to wince and try to pull back. "H-hey! Let go!"

Lincoln simply narrowed his eyes as he tightened his grip causing Sunset's to wince even more and force herself not to scream in pain as she legs started trembling. "Now listen here you." Lincoln said in a dark threatening tone that even surprised Twilight. "I've dealt with far more then you can even know, some like you, some a lot worst. And I'm just gonna let you know, compare to most of them, you're nothing but petty small fry. So, do yourself a favor, and back off!" Lincoln finished by throwing the bully to the ground on her butt.

Once she was on the ground, she looked to her now red and throbbing wrist and looked to Lincoln and Twilight with a completely pissed look in her eye. "You two just made a horrible mistake." She said through her teeth as she got up and rubbed her wrist. "You just made a dangerous enemy." And with that, the bully walked away as Twilight and Lincoln glared at her.

Once she was gone, everybody nearby looked to Lincoln with widened eyes and dropped jaws, looking like they couldn't believe what they just saw. "What? What are you are lookin at?" Lincoln said in an annoyed tone causing everyone in the hallways to flinch and go about their business and pretend that nothing's happened.

They then turned to the shy girl who was looking just as shocked, if not more so, then everyone else that watched the scene go down. Lincoln then looked her in the eye making her flinch. "You alright?" Lincoln asked as Twilight stood next to him.

The shy girl shook her head a bit to snap out of her shocked state as she said to the two of them. "I can't believe you two just did that." She said in a surprised but still quiet tone.

"Well we couldn't just stand there." Twilight said simply with Lincoln nodding in agreement.

"Well, it's just that nobody ever stands up to Sunset Shimmer." The shy girl said as Lincoln and Twilight's eyes widened at the information.

"That was Sunset Shimmer?" Lincoln asked as he looked down the hallway the mean girl went down that turned out to be the very person, they went here to get the crown back from.

"You've heard of here?" The pink haired girl asked.

"Sort of." Twilight answered vaguely.

"I don't think I've seen either of you here before." The light-yellow skinned girl said as they both tensed up when she said that. "Did you transfer to Canterlot High from another school?"

"Uuuuuuuuh…" Twilight was trying to think of a way to answer that question, but luckily Lincoln came to the rescue and spoke up.

"Yes! Yes, we did!" The Loud boy said quickly. "We were, uh, just looking around the place right now." Lincoln then completely looked over the shy girl's body and thought. 'Ok, that's gotta be her.' He then asked. "Say, your name wouldn't happen to be Fluttershy would it?"

The girl's eyes widened at this as she answered. "Y-Yes it-it is…how did you know that?" She asked shyly with a pink blush.

'Crap! I should've thought this through more!' Lincoln mentally screamed to himself as he was just now realizing that calling out the name of someone who's technically never seen you before must be both weird and creepy. 'Come on Lincoln! Think of something to say!" Lincoln then cleared his throat awkwardly as he said. "W-well we j-just heard about a g-girl with pink hair that was good with a-animals and I just assumed."

"Oh, I see." The human Fluttershy said quietly as she looked down, thankfully buying the excuse.

'Oh thank God!' Lincoln thought with relief. "Anyway, my name is Lincoln Loud and this is Twilight Sparkle."

"Yes, it's, uh, very nice to meet you." Twilight said with awkwardness in her voice at the fact she was having to introduce herself to a parallel version of a someone she was already good friends with.

Fluttershy gave them a greeting nod, but suddenly gasped as she smiled happily at a certain someone that was coming up next to Twilight. "Who's this little guy?!" Fluttershy asked eagerly as she got on her knees to be eye level with Spike, who had just come in and walked up to Twilight.

"That's Spike. My, uh, dog." Twilight said, also not used to calling Spike a dog.

"Oh, he is so cute!" Fluttershy cooed as she reached into her backpack and pulled out a dog treat and handed it to the dragon turned dog. "Go on, eat up, little pup!" Spike took a small bite of the biscuit, not sure how it would taste. But in his new dog form, it ended up tasting really good, so he ended up quickly eating the rest of the treat.

"Oh, wouldn't you just give anything to know what they're really thinking?" Fluttershy said as she watched the dog eat up the biscuit.

"Eh, take it or leave it." Lincoln said in a joking tone which made Spike give Lincoln an annoyed looked as Twilight couldn't help but giggle and kept her mouth shut about Spike being able to talk.

Twilight then put on a serious look as she asked Fluttershy, "Sunset Shimmer said you picked something up. Something that belonged to her. It wasn't a crown was it?"

"How did you know?" Fluttershy asked as she gave Twilight a confused look.

"Uh, lucky guess." Twilight said with a nervous smile as Lincoln lightly bumped her with his shoulder. "You wouldn't happen to still have it would you?"

"Uh-uh." Fluttershy said while shaking her head.

Twilight gave a disappointed sigh as she then asked hopefully. "Do you know what happened to it though?"

Fluttershy nodded this time and proceeded to tell the two what happened. She told them about how she was trying to hand flyers and get volunteers to Cantorlots animal shelter, but no one gave her a single glance. When Fluttershy dropped her flyers and curled into a ball and stared to cry, she was suddenly hit in the head and looked to see it was a crown that ended up giving her a hit on the noggin.

"I had no idea where it came from." Fluttershy said after she finished her story while petting Spike. "But I didn't want anything to happen to it, so I decided to give it to Principal Celestia."

Lincoln and Twilight looked to each other with surprised expression's as they said in unison. "Principle Celestia?"

They then turned to Fluttershy again with Lincoln asking. "Could you point us towards her office please?"

"Third door on the left." Fluttershy said with a smile as she pointed to the correct direction.

"Thank you!" Lincoln and Twilight said as they and Spike started to run towards said direction.

"Oh wait!" Fluttershy called out to them called out to them, causing them all to stop and look towards her. "You're not really supposed to have pets on school grounds." Fluttershy explained while pointing to Spike. "Might want to tuck him into your backpack. That's what I do."

Just then a bunny, cat, and bird ended up coming out of Fluttershy's backpack and cuddled up the light-yellow skinned girl with her happily hugging them back. "They just get so lonely when I'm at school all day."

Lincoln gave her a thumbs up as Twilight said. "Thank you!" Just then the day run leading to Fluttershy quickly standing up.

"I'm late for class!" The shy girl gasped as she quickly scooped up the animals in her backpack and ran off.


Just a few minutes later, Twilight and Lincoln made it to a door that said 'Principal's Office.' Spike was securely in Twilight's bag as Twilight herself started bowing. Lincoln gave Twilight a blank look and said. "Twilight, she's principle in this world, not a princess. You don't have to do that."

Twilight straighten up as an embarrassed blush came to her face as she said. "Sorry." Lincoln simply rolled his eyes and knocked on the door.

"Come in." They heard a familiar voice come from inside the room.

"Just let me do the talking." Lincoln whispered to Twilight who nodded in response. Lincoln then opened the door to the office where they saw a woman reading something from a file.

"How may I help you?" She said in the exact same voice as Princess Celestia back in Equestria.

"Hello, my name is Lincoln Loud and this is my friend Twilight Sparkle. We're new here." Lincoln introduced themselves as the women put the file down and they could see her hair was exactly the same as the Celestia they knew only without the flowing and sparkling. She also had white skin and purple eyes.

"Well it's nice to meet you two." Principal Celestia said with a kind smile. "Is there anything I can do for you two?"

"Yes actually." Lincoln answered as he looked around the office. "We we're told Fluttershy picked up a crown and gave it to you?"

"Yes actually." Celestia said as she picked up the file she was reading and walked over to a cabinet. "No idea how it ended up on the front lawn thought. But my sister Vice-Principal Luna put it somewhere for safe keeping.

Twilight bit her lip in worry as Lincoln remained calm and continued. "I see, so what's the deal with the crown anyway?"

"Well it goes to the winner of the Fall Formel Dance." The principal answered as she walked towards a calendar that had a date circled and labeled "Fall Formel." The event was 3 days from now, the day where the portal would close once the moon rose high up in the sky.

Celestia then continued explain details about the event. "Students vote for the one they want to be Princess of the Fall Formel most and the one with the most votes gets the crown." Celestia then gestured to three pictures framed beside each other. All of them were Sunset Shimmer winning the crown. The first one she looked genuinely surprised and happy. The second one showed her gloating a bit and pointing to her crown. And the third one was straight up her laughing manically.

"That's not foreboding at all." Lincoln said sarcastically as he looked at the three pictures. He then looked back to Principal Celestia and asked. "So, you just have to get the most votes to win the crown?"

"Yep." Celestia answered before giving Lincoln an apologetic smile. "Of course, only girls can run. It is the Princess of the fall formal after all."

"…Aw." Lincoln said in sadden tone as he looked down.

"But your friend Twilight here can still enter though." Celestia said as she gestured her hands to Twilight. "Would you be interested in running."

"Oh, I don't think-" Twilight was saying but stopped when Lincoln grabbed her shoulder.

"Say yes. If you win, we get your crown back." Lincoln whispered to the purple skinned girl.

Twilight rose a brow at Lincoln's statement, but ultimately decided to follow the white heads advice. "Uh, yes. Yes, I would."

"Well then you simply have to inform the head of the Fall Formal committee and ask her to sign you up." Celestia informed the two as they nodded.

"Alright, we'll go do that." Lincoln said as he pointed his thumb back to the door. "Thank you for your time ma'am."

"Your welcome, and if you two need anything else my door is always open." Celestia told the two kindly as they nodded and left the office.

When the two left, they continued walking towards the hall as Twilight turned to Lincoln and asked. "Lincoln, why didn't we just say the crown was mine and ask for it back?" The purple skinned girl asked with confusion.

They both stopped as Lincoln turned to Twilight and crossed his arms. "Twilight, if we explain the exact detail to her about how your pony princess from another universe that came here through a mirror portal, she'll think we're crazy."

Twilight rose a finger and rose about to make a retort…but couldn't. Honestly, before she met Lincoln, if you told her there was a world of bipedal creatures that looked like they did know, she would think they were crazy.

Just then Spike poked his head out of Twilight backpack and said. "Well why don't you just transform in front of her and show them we're telling the truth."

Lincoln gave Spike a deadpanned look as he said. "Yes, because transforming into a strange creature in front of someone who's probably never seen aliens or anything of the like before in a public place won't cause a panic at all." The Ultimatrix wielder said completely sarcastically.

Spike nervously chuckled in response and said. "Ok, that's a good point."

"Well, I guess if the only way to get my crown back is the become the Princess of the Fall Formel, then that's exactly what I'm gonna do!" Twilight said enthusiastically as she raised her hands into the air.

"…And how exactly do you plan on doing that?" Spike asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I have no idea!" Twilight said with the same enthusiastic tone and her hands still in the air.

This…was going to be something to say the least.
