"What are we going to do!?" Rainbow Dash yelled. The seven friends and the Wonderbolt were still stuck in their robot modes and have no idea how to turn back.

"I don't know Rainbow Dash, but I will figure it out," Twilight Sparkle said, but the seven ponies did not look like they believed her.

"Sorry to say Twilight, but we may need to talk to the Predicons about how to turn back," Applejack said getting looks from the seven ponies.

"Are you crazy!? You want us to talk to those brutes!?" Rarity yelled, all of the ponies had to agree with her. Twilight sighed and looked at the seven ponies in their new forms. She couldn't believe that the Predicons did this to them, sure they were more powerful, but now they can't go around without being called monsters.

"So what should we do?" Twilight Sparkle asked.

"I think we should go back to Ponyville, hide in our houses and come up with excuses about why we can't come out of our rooms," Rainbow Dash suggested, the ponies looked at each other and realized that it was the best thing they could do. Sure it sounded stupid, but what else could they do.

"Wait! Where am I suppose to go!?" Soarin yelled, the seven ponies from ponyville looked at each other with realization, Soarin had nowhere to go.

"You can stay with Rainbow Dash," Twilight Sparkle suggested, and Rainbow Dash beamed at the suggestion, Soarin looked at the cyan mare with worry, but she was the only one that had a house that Earth ponies and Unicorn ponies could not enter, Soarin sighed and said, "I'll stay with Rainbow Dash,"

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeee!" Rainbow Dashed squealed and began to ramble on about how she was going to show him her Wonderbolts collection and her custom made Wonderbolt uniform, the blue Wonderbolt at looked at Apple Jack and mouthed "Help me".

"Well let's go back to Ponyville and think up of some excuses," Applejack said and got up, the other seven ponies did the same and they walked off to exit the Everfree Forest.

In the Predicon ship, Darksider, the Predicons were healing themselves in the stasis bath. Megatron looked at Tarantulas with pure hatred.

"You had one job Tarantulas! And you screwed it up!"

"Please Megatron, it was an honest mistake, I... Gah!" Tarantulas was saying but was grabbed by the throat by Megatron's tail weapon. The Predicon leader brought the transmetal arachnid to his face and snarled.

"I should have Rampage rip you apart and I should use your pieces as spare parts you idiotic..."

"High Energon readings detected," The AI said, interrupting Megatron, the Predicon leader dropped Tarantulas and walked to the screen.

"So this world has Energon, what is the state of it?"

"Scanners show that the Energon is stable,"

Megatron smiled at this, now the Predicons won't have the problem of getting an Energon overload.

"Where is it located?"

"The closet source of is located under a town called Ponyville,"

The Predicon leader looked at his team and smiled.

"Predicons, when the inhabitants of Ponyville are asleep, we shall destroy it and obtain that Energon!"

At the edge of the Everfree Forest, the eight robotic ponies were looking out of some bushes, keeping watch for anyponies that walked by.

"There's Fluttershy's cottage, Rainbow Dash and Soarin can fly over to Rainbow's place, Applejack and Big Macintosh can stay on the outskirts till they reach the farm, but for me, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie, it will be more difficult because we live in Ponyville," Twilight Sparkle said, she was planning in her head on how she, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie were going to get to their places without being noticed.

"Hope you think of something, cause the weather team were given orders to put some clouds in the sky, so me and Soarin have to get going," Rainbow Dash said.

"Good luck Rainbow," Twilight Sparkle said, Rainbow Dash nodded and flew off with Soarin to her house.

"Me and Big Mac will be going now, y'all be careful," Applejack said and walked out of the bush with her big brother behind her.

"I hope you three make it," Fluttershy said and fluttered to her cottage.

Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie sat in the bush thinking of a way to get to their place. Pinkie Pie suggested going in disguise, but it was quickly shot down, because of the fact that they stood taller than the other ponies, and they weren't walking on all fours. After 10 minutes of thinking, Twilight Sparkle remembered that she could teleport them back to their places. The purple robotic unicorn began to use her magic and teleported herself and the other two to Rarity's place.

"Thank you Twilight, I hope you and Pinkie Pie make it to your places safely," Rarity said, giving the purple unicorn a hug, but was interrupted when she heard her sister's voice outside the door.

"Rarity! I can't believe you escaped those things!"

"Don't come in Sweetie Bell!"

"Why?"

"Because the kidnapping was horrifying, so I need to be alone to recover,"

"Okay sis, hope you get better," Sweetie Bell said, the three robotic ponies could hear the white unicorn filly walk down the stairs, and they gave a sigh of relief, which surprised them since they didn't have lungs anymore.

"Well Rarity, I hope we can figure out how to go back into our regular forms, and that your sister doesn't find out," Twilight Sparkle said and teleported herself and Pinkie Pie out of the boutique.

Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie appeared in Pinkie Pie's room in Sugar Cube Corner.

"Well Twilight it looks like it's only you now, but we can get together again, we could throw a "We are now Strange Creatures" party, then when we figure out how to turn into our normal selves we can have a "Normal Selves" party, and…"

"Pinkie are you okay, we saw a bright light in your room?" Mrs. Cake said behind the door, Pinkie Pie held her breath, somehow, and grabbed Twilight Sparkle.

"What do I do Twilight!?" Pinkie Pie whispered loudly to Twilight Sparkle.

"I don't know? Make something up"

"Okay Twilight. I'm fine Mrs. Cake; I was using my new bright streamers!"

Twilight face-palmed at the response, there was no way that Mrs. Cake would believe that.

"Okay Pinkie, just wondering what the light was," Mrs. Cake said and left. Twilight looked surprised that the female baker believes that, but then again, she does work with Pinkie Pie.

"Remember Pinkie, stay hidden and don't tell the Cakes anything,"

"Don't worry Twilight my lips are sealed," Pinkie Pie said doing a zipping motion across her mouth. Twilight Sparkle rolled her eyes and teleported out of the pink pony's room.

A bright light appeared in the library and a purple robotic pony stood in the center of room, she looked around to see if anybody was there and ran up to her room, closing the door and locking it. Twilight sighed in relief that nobody saw her.

"Twilight, is that you,"

Twilight Sparkle stiffened in fear, she looked around to see where the voice came from, but then realised that it was muffled behind the door, and the voice came from her number one assistant, Spike.

"Yes Spike it's me,"

"Why are you in your room, and why did you lock it?"

Twilight Sparkle had to think of something and fast, after 30 seconds of thinking she got an idea.

"You see Spike, I have a flue," Twilight Sparkle said fake coughing, hoping that the green baby dragon would believe it.

"Okay Twilight, I hope you get better," Spike said, Twilight Sparkle heard the muffled footsteps get quieter, she sighed and went to her bed and lied down on it.

"Can this day get any worse?"

"You know Big Mac, I think that weapon of yours is a bit dangerous,"

Twilight Sparkle jumped out of bed when she heard Applejack's voice, but when she looked around, she didn't see the farm pony anywhere. She scratched her head in confusion, as she scratched her head, she saw something weird on her right arm, a small square on her lower arm had little holes in it, she put her ear up to it and once again heard the Applejack's voice.

"I think you shouldn't use that weapon Big Mac,"

The purple robotic pony quickly took her head away from it, and began to think about what it was. She began to think that it was a way the Predicons talked to each other at long distances, but to prove this she would have to talk into it.

"Applejack, can you hear me?"

"Twilight, is that you, where are you?"

Twilight Sparkle smiled at the fact that she was right about the weird thing on her arm.

"Yes Applejack, it's me, listen I want you to look at your arms,"

"Why?"

"Just do it,"

"Okay… Wow, what is that thing!?"

"It is how I'm talking to you right now, now try to get Big Mac on,"

"Sure thing Twilight,"

Twilight Sparkle sat on her bed and waited, after 4 minutes she heard a beep in her device and talked into it.

"Big Mac?"

"Eeyup,"

"Good, I'm going to try to call the others,"

"Okay,"

Twilight Sparkle heard two beeps and when she talked into the device, all she got was static, after making a few observations; she was able to talk to the rest of her friends. Twilight Sparkle smiled, with this new discovery, she and her friends could talk to each other when they were at long distances.

Twilight Sparkle turned off the device and looked at her clock, 10:30, she sighed and laid down, how was she and her friends going to lie for so long, sooner or later, ponies will get suspicious and find out. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

On the outskirts of Ponyville, the seven Predicons were standing, weapons ready to destroy the town and get the Energon. Megatron looked at te town and gave a soft smile, for such primitive creatures, they have proven to be able to make buildings, roads, even a form of government.

Megatron looked at his Predicon allies and said to them.

"Destroy the town, and if any resist, kill them,"

The Predicons ran into the town firing their weapons, tonight the Predicons will be victorious, for there will be nothing to stand in their way.

Or so they think.
