At Canterlot High, Sun is walking towards the Wondercolt 's still missing the horse that is supposed to be on top. Still holding her bag, Sun looks around to see that not many people are around the campus. She doesn't want too many people seeing the portal. Sun walks through the portal, and is heading to Equestria. Sunset's body stretches as she swirls and screams across the color portal.
In Princess Twilight's castle library of Equestria, the portal begin to make a magical charge, and activates the portal. In a matter of seconds, Sun flies out of the portal and crashes into stacks of books, and hits the ground. Changed into her pony form, Sun is starting to feel very dizzy because of the crash landing.
Tries to clear her vision, and notices somepony is looking at her.
Sun tries to get a clear view as she asks, "Starlight, is that you?"
Her vision clears to reveal Starlight in her sight.
"Yep. It's Starlight alright," Starlight replies.
Sun nervously laughs and begin to get up. Of course, she makes sure to walk on fours instead of two. But it's kind of a hard habit to break since she's so used to be human.
"So how things been going?" Sun asks.
"Things are going good. Of course I'm here by myself right now," Starlight says.
With her magic, Starlight says, "Here's the book Princess Twilight wanted me to give you."
Sun manages to grab it with her hooves. Then she uses her magic to put it back in her bag.
"Thanks," Sun replies.
"You're welcome. She wanted to give it to you herself, but she and her friends were called away on a friendship mission," Starlight says.
She looks away, and says, "It happens a lot around here."
"Must be rather stressful, never knowing when you're called to save the day. Having to drop everything at a moment notice," Sun says.
"Yeah," Starlight replies.
Sun asks, "When do you think she'll be back?"
"I'm not sure. Depending on the problem, it could take a while," Starlight answers.
"Well, I guess I better get back. The girls and I decided to meet at the theater for the Daring Do premiere at the theater,"
Sun says.
Remembering to walk on four legs, Sun walks back to the portal. Starlight decides to follow her.
Starlight asks, "What's it like living there?"
"Well, it's pretty different than Equestria, but… there are some similarities. There are a lot I could explain it to you," Sun answers.
Starlight giggles, "I guess you have to be there in order to get it."
"Guess so. I lived there for a few years, and it's great. Of course, being in Equestria is great too," Sun answers.
Starlight is starting to get an idea in her head, "I don't suppose I can come back with you."
"You really think Princess Twilight would be okay with that?" Sun questions.
"I don't know for she if she wouldn't be okay with it," Starlight remarks.
Sun arches her eye brow, and says, "That's not a particularly compelling argument."
"She wants me to learn more about friendship, and I'm not learning a whole lot just hanging out in her castle," Starlight says.
"That sounds a bit boring," Sun replies.
"Yeah," Starlight replies.
Thinking about it, Sun says, "Well, I haven't run into your human self yet, so chances are you aren't gonna run into
yourself."
"Is that something you don't hear everyday," Starlight blunt replies.
"Plus, you didn't get to spend time with me and the others the last time you were there," Sun says.
"Yeah. I was trying to get used to using a human body," Starlight says.
Sun says, "Just lay low. Don't attract too much attention to yourself."
Starlight scoofs it off, "You'll barely even notice I'm there."
"You having fun with my friends could be a good distraction," Sun replies.
"But you'll totally notice I'm there, and it will keep your mind off other things that might be bothering you," Starlight says.
Starlight then glances at Sun with eager sparkles in her eyes.
Then happily asks, "So what do you think?"
"Can I come back with you?" Starlight adds with glee and jumping a bit.
Sun looks back at the mirror, think about bringing Starlight with her.
At CHS, a few students are walking around the campus. Sun and Starlight enter the school grounds past the statue.
Starlight starts to groan after going through the portal, and finds herself in being transformed into a human girl. Last time, she barely knows how to walk.
Sun helps her up as she says, "It may feel funny at first, but try to roll with it."
Sun helps Starlight stand up, but the barley newcomer is still struggling standing on two legs.
Starlight looks at her new hooves, and asks, "What are these?"
"They're hands," Sun answers.
Starlight looks down on her bottom hooves, and asks, "And these?"
"Those are feet. Just try to lay low, and try to keep things cool," Sun answers.
Starlight nervously laughs, and says, "Right… play it cool."
Starlight begins to take a step, but ends up walking on her feet and knuckles. Suddenly she ends up bumping into someone from their behind.
The girls sternly asks, "Do dares bump into the Great and Powerful TRIXIE!"
Starlight looks up, and questions, "Trixie… is that you?"
"Yes. I see that you know me," Trixie says with a grin.
Sun comes over, and brings Starlight up to walk like a human girl.
Sun nervously laughs, and says, "Sorry Trixie. This is my friend Starlight Glimmer."
"Hi," Starlight replies.
"It's nice to see you Starlight. Sorry I can't stay and talk to you and Sun, but I need to get going," Trixie says.
Trixie walks past the two girls, and walk away. Sun looks at Starlight can see that Trixie seems find meeting her.
Starlight replies, "You said I make a good distraction."
Sun simply smiles in reply.
Back at the theater, Juniper is scooping popcorn from the popcorn maker. She then puts it on the ground where the pile is there. She's been distracted about what the mirror has done earlier, and decides to try again.
"Mirror, pick up this popcorn!" Juniper firmly says, holding the mirror to the popcorn.
But nothing has happened. A few people are seeing, and look rather confused.
Juniper looks at the mirror confused and frustrated, and decides to try again,
"Mirror, I command thee, pick upeth this poppage of corn!" Juniper commands as she holds the mirror to the spilled food.
Again, nothing has happened.
Confused, and frustrated, Juniper says to herself, "Ugh! Why won't this thing work anymore?"
Juniper grabs the scoops and scoops the popcorn.
A woman with pink skin, and dark purple curly hair bluntly says, "Like... we were gonna eat some of that."
"Mirror, make these annoying people go away," Juniper commands, present the mirror at the two people.
Not getting the idea and annoyed, the two walk away.
Juniper looks at the mirror and says, "Well, that kinda worked…"
"Yo Juniper, what's with all the useless activity going on here," A girl's says, with an annoyed attitude.
Juniper turns around to see Aria with a annoyed look on her face. Juniper stars at her with an annoyed look as well.
"Nothing that you'll get," Juniper mutters.
Just then, a happy voice, says, "Hi Aria."
The two look to see Aria's friends. Sonata runs and gives Aria a hug. Then lifts her over the stand, and to the other side.
Aria bluntly says, "Hi Sonata."
"So how was work?" Sonata asks.
"Could be better if I didn't have to babysit her," Aria says, pointing to Juniper.
"No one said you had to watch me," Juniper remarks.
Falling Star says, "Actually, Sun wanted Aria to keep an eye on you. From she said, you two were having a little tension."
"It's a bit of an understatement," Applejack says.
"Hi Juniper, what you doing here? Were you invited to the Daring Do premiere? Ooh, that's exciting! No, crazy! No,
concerning! No! Just no!" Pinkie shouts as she is being random with her word.
Then calmly says, "No offense."
"I wasn't invited to the premiere. My uncle Canter Zoom felt bad for firing me, so he pulled some strings and got me this job," Juniper answers.
"I'm surprised you work here with Aria," Fluttershy says.
"As little as possible," Juniper mutters.
There's an awkward silence.
"I'm guessing that's the reason why you two have been getting into each other's skin," Adagio whispers.
"You can say that again," Aria says.
Rainbow says to Juniper, "Y'know, if you hadn't tried to sabotage the movie, you could be celebrating with us."
Hearing this makes Juniper angry, and walks out of the popcorn stands to face in magic.
Juniper releases her anger, and says, "Ooh! This should be my night! I would have found a way to be in the film if you all had stayed out of it! I would have been Daring Do! Everyone would've loved me! See?"
Juniper shows the mirror to the girls. They are looking rather confused.
Aria mutters, "Urg, not this again."
"Can't you see what's right under your noses?" Juniper shouts.
She becomes very furious, and shouts, "Ugh! I wish you'd all just go away and leave me alone!"
Suddenly the mirror begins to glow and a strong beam of light. One by one, the girls start to get sucked into the mirror.
Trying to grab something, Sonata ends up grabbing Aria's geode necklace. Aria holds on to the stand. Before Aria can get to Sonata, the necklace snaps and sucks Sonata into the mirror. Aria quickly hides behind the side of the stand, and shocked to see her friends, her sisters are gone.
She looks to see Juniper's new mirror creates a strange magical blue energy, and travels from Juniper arms to her head. The mirror ends up putting a magic spell on Juniper, making her eyes, green. Then changes back. Juniper grins to be satisfied with her wish. She sees Fluttershy's butterfly hairpin and picks it up. Then puts it on her vest.
"Hmm. Looks like I may be finally getting the hang of this," Juniper says, looking st the mirror.
Suddenly, the reflection appears on the mirror, and says, "Hi, me!"
Still hiding behind the stand, Aria gasps, and quietly says, "That mirror has Equestrian Magic! Not only it has sucked my friends and sisters to who knows where, but I think the magic is starting to take Juniper over. I need to find Sun."
In a different part of the mall, Starlight and Sun are having some ice cream at the food court. Sun has been trying to call the girls on her phone, but goes straight to voicemail
"Ten cell phones, all straight to voicemail," Sun says, wondering why the girls won't answer
"I'm sure they're around. What's the worst that could have happened?" Starlight replies. Then licking her ice cream.
Sun sighs, "Actually Starlight, Equestrian Magic is startling to become loose in this world, and it works different than in
Equestria. I've been rather worried on what kind of crazy magic can do. The first time it happened, it turned the human version of Falling Star into a magical being, that also caused her pain. The second time, Gloriosa found them as geodes, and tried to use more than she can handle and turned into a magical creature."
"Sounds to me like you're worried about the magic will come again to cause trouble," Starlight suspect.
"Yeah. I practically spend mostly eighty percent of my time worrying about it. I feel like I'm overreacting about the situation," Sun says.
"Well, maybe you can ask Princess Twilight about it, and see what she thinks," Starlight suggests.
"True, but I can't keep depending her for magical answer even though I tried to send her a message. I'm just worried that either wild magic comes around and cause trouble or maybe a magical creature or item that was sent here getting into someone's hands," Sun says in concern.
Then she explains, "My friends and I were given special powers for a reason. And I was made as princess and protector of this world. I worried that if I let my guard down, something or someone that has Equestrian Magic could come out and attack. I feel that I need to keep my guard up."
"Sounds like a tough one. The only advice I can come up is to just leave it be and hope it will work at the end. You spend too much time worrying about the bad things that might happen, you'll miss out on the good things that is happening," Starlight says, as she eat her ice cream.
Sun giggles, "It looks like Princess Twilight's student is teaching me a lesson right now."
"Yeah. Like that," Starlight replies, and continues to eat her ice cream.
Sun chuckles, and says, "Come on, let's go meet the others at the theater. I'm sure they're alright."
The two walk to down the mall, heading to the theater. What Sun and Starlight don't know, is that the girls are anything but alright at this time.
