Donnie walked beside Twilight Sparkle. He was nerve racked for leaving his brothers. Though,he knew they would be fine without him. Especially Leo...Leo's habitat is literally chores. He'd be fine. Raph would have to watch his temper around the shy girl,though. And Mikey,Donnie would have to make a mental note to hide all the junk food at home for a while. Twilight walked in front of a house and stopped, strutting her hip a bit to the left. It was a light beige house with a gray tiles roof, two windows on both sides of the front door, and some flowers in the front yard. "It's not perfect, but it's my temporary home whenever I come here",Twilight remarked. "It's fine, as long as we have a roof over our heads",Donnie stated. Twilight grinned at him and pulled keys out of her skirt pocket. She walked up to the door, unlocked it, and opened it up. Donnie peered inside and saw some tiled flooring. Donnie followed the girl inside and looked around. Books covered the walls, papers were spread around the floor, and a computer lay on a desk top. "Sorry about my messy living room",Twilight apologized. "It's ok..you should see my lab",Donnie grinned. "You have a lab?!",Twilight blurted out. Donnie nodded. "Oh my gosh! I wish I had one! I just have my house..and then the library back in Equestria",Twilight continued. Donnie's eyes widened. "You own a library?!",Donnie asked, admiring the girl. "Ya! Isn't that cool?",Twilight asked. "Of course it's cool!", Donnie said quickly. "Twilight dear...your house is truly a mess",a voice said. Donnie turned around to see a white skinned, purple haired girl. She strut out her hip to the right and held a little cat. Her purple skirt had three diamonds on it. "Rarity, I'll clean it later. I was planning in studying today with Donnie",Twilight jutted her thumb towards Donnie. Donnie smiled at Rarity, her eyes widened with fear when he did. "Monster!",Rarity screamed. "No! NO...he's fine…",Twilight assured. A little purple dog with green spikes walked in. "I'm a talking dog, if you can handle me, you can handle him",the dog said. "You're right, Spike. I guess I can",Rarity said. She turned towards Donnie. "I'm so sorry, darling. I guess my fear gets in the way sometimes",Rarity flipped her hair over her shoulder. Donnie didn't like this girl very much. She was just too fancy. "So where is the orange one?",Rarity asked,"And the red one, and the blue one". "The orange one is Mikey, he's with Pinkie. The red one is Raph, he's with Fluttershy. Then the blue one is Leo, he's with AppleJack",Twilight explained. Donnie nodded in agreement. "Oh…",Rarity said. "I wonder what my brothers are doing",Donnie said out loud. Once hearing himself say that, he immediately regretted it. He hated it when he said stuff out loud. "I bet AppleJack and Leonardo are working on chores. Pinkie and Michaelangelo are doing something crazy. Fluttershy and Raphael",Twilight shook her head,"I've can't guess that one". Donnie sighed. It was going to be a long night.
"Ok. I was thinking we could do cupcakes at 9 and pizza at 10",she directed. "Wait what?! Why cupcakes first?",Mikey protested. Pinkie raised an eyebrow. "Because I planned it to be that way",Pinkie replied. She fixed the soldier hat on her head. "But pizza is better",Mikey stated. "No!", Pinkie said. "Yes!",Mikey returned. They both narrowed their eyes. "No!" "Yes!" "No!" "Yes! "No!" "Yes!" "NO!" "YES!" Mikey and Pinkie puffed out hot air. "Ok then, pizza and cupcakes at 9:30",they both said. They giggled and jumped on the bed, both of them losing their soldier hats.
Leo walked beside AppleJack carrying the basket of freshly picked apples. "And Granny Smith makes the best apple pie ever!", AppleJack continued. Leo set the basket down beside the tree. "So, what's your place like?",AppleJack asked him. "It's the sewers. It's not the best place to live, but it's home. It's safe for me and my brothers. I want them to be safe for as long as possible",Leo said quickly. Why was spilling out his feelings to a girl he never knew? "It's ok, Sugarcube. That's how I feel for Apple Bloom",she said. Leo stared at the country girl. Someone understood his feelings? Leo couldn't believe his ears. "Why do you call people 'Sugarcube'?",Leo asked. He picked the basket back up and heard a lonely sigh from the girl. "My mother called me 'Sugarcube' when I was just a little girl",AppleJack said sadly. Leo was confused. Why did she sound so sad? "I'd like to meet your mother", he commented as he started following the girl towards the barn. Her pulled back hair lay loosely on her back. "I bet they'd like to meet you to, Leo",she replied. "Huh?", Leo grunted a bit. The basket was starting to feel heavy. "My parents ain't here Sugarcub",AppleJack voice was shaky now. Why? "Are they on a vacation",Leo asked starting to work out the puzzle. Leo started hearing sniffling and saw AppleJack wipe her face. "AppleJack?",Leo jutted in. He thought about her parents. Why would she be crying? Leo's eyes widened. "Are your parents",Leo didn't even want to finish. "Ya, Leo. Haven't seen em' in a while",AppleJack sniffed. "I-I'm...AppleJack..I'm sorry",Leo apologized. Why had he been so stupid? Anyone could've figured out her parents were dead long before he did. "It's alright,Leo. Apple Bloom, Big Macintosh, and I can deal with it. You should believe me cause I'm the Element of Honesty",AppleJack sighed. Leo only nodded, not wanting to talk about it anymore. "Lets get these apples to the barn and then we can get somethin' to eat",AppleJack said quickly. She readjusted her grip on her basket of apples and continued towards the barn. Leo followed after quickly. How could someone be so sad in this world? Wasn't this world an alternate place? Like sunshine and rainbows? Leo shook his head. To many questions he decided. He just followed the girl to the barn keeping an eye on her.
Raph looked out the window as Fluttershy drove the car. He sighed. He hated the going-different-ways plan, but Fluttershy was a good person to hang out with. Raph crossed his arms over the red hoodie. He didn't think a human could ever accept him. The couple humans his brothers and him had just met were probably better than anyone. Maybe even April. Well, she did scream the first time she saw them. These girls didn't, well only the one with purple curly hair. Raph snapped out of his thoughts when he heard Fluttershy's voice. "Huh?",he moaned a bit. "I was just asking what your home is like",she said again. "It's nice...kinda miss it",Raph explained. "Oh…",Fluttershy whispered. Raph looked at her, her beautiful, turquoise eyes rested on the road outside. He only nodded to himself and looked away again. "Why'd you help us?",he asked. There was a hesitant silence until Fluttershy replied,"Because you needed it. I could never just leave people who are lost and confused alone to figure things out. I may be shy but, helping people make me feel better. I'm never helped out. I don't want anyone else to feel the way I do". Raph's heart skipped a beat. No wonder! This girl was bullied in school. The kindest people feel the worst pain. "I'm sorry about that",was all he could manage to say. "It's fine..everyone at my school teases me",she sighed. Raph closed his eyes. He couldn't imagine what it felt like. How to be teased from people who were always around you. That you felt were friends but ended up enemies. Raph let out a heavy breath. He'd help this girl while he was here. He'd give her a well deserved friend.
She walked down the quiet corridor, taking glances at the rooms inside. She stopped in front of a velvet red door with a brass doorknob. She opened it and saw three other people."Tirek. Chrysalis. And Sombra. How nice",she laughed. "Why'd you bring us here? You know we're all suspended!",Sombra growled. "Twilight Sparkle has more…",she let out a disgusted sigh,"friends". Chrysalis wrinkled her nose. "What the heck?! Why does the girl need more friends? Doesn't she have the entire school?!",Chrysalis. "Yes, but these friends are different. They're mutants!",she hissed. Tirek narrowed his eyes. "Why are we part of this?", he asked. "These new friends may be the school's destruction. Maybe even theirs",she explained. Sombra's eyes gleamed. "So you're saying, if we can get those four to go against the girls. Then we can make them destroy the school",Sombra started. "And then we won't get in trouble", Tirek finished. "Exactly. That's why I brought you three here",she said. "Of course, this will be the perfect plan!",Chrysalis beamed. "Quite",she smirked. Everything would go right now. "You're brilliant, Moon Shine", Chrysalis sparked. "Aren't I always?",Moon Shine snickered.
