Twilight dived to her left as a long pointed spear extended from Lust's hoof, narrowly missing Twilight's head
"You can't keep it up for ever princess" Said Lust, her words dripping with pure venom
Twilight knew she was right she looked towards Princess Celestia, who gave Twilight a quick nod. Twilight's horn lit with a vibrant purple glow, a large golden spear extending from the tip
"Begone foul creature, go back to where you came from!" Yelled Twilight, purple lightning crackled around her, great magical winds picking up papers and other small items from around the throne room, the spear then shot from her horn and collided with Lust head on. Lust Screamed
"AHHHHH, You miserable Pony!" She Cried "I can't believe it, these creatures were supposed to be weaker than humans!"
"You obviously don't know who you are dealing with!" Twilight's voice echoed through Lust's mind "I am Princess Twilight Sparkle, Princess Of Magic!"
The wind died down and Celestia and Luna opened their eyes, both Twilight and the black mare had gone
Ed had followed Darius and Hoenheim back to the village, still not happy about leaving Al behind, when a group of the villagers ran past carrying lamps, looking for the source of the blue light that had put out all the lights in the village
"No wait, you can't go that way"Said Hoenheim, moving to stand in their way
"Why not?" Asked one of the villagers, Ed found him strangely familiar, but couldn't put his finger on where he had seen him
"Because there are monsters out there and we are bringing this young one back out of the way, we have Ex-military associates working over that way, and we think you should stay out of their way" Said Darius, Pointing to Ed when he said 'young one', to which Ed kicked him in the back of the leg
"So we are going anyway!" Said one of the villagers pushing past Hoenheim and Darius, four others followed him, but the rest turned back toward the village listening to what Hoenheim had said
there was some muttering among the group, some of the more frequent words Ed could pick out were, 'Really?' 'Monsters' and 'Shorty', tow which he gritted his teeth and said nothing
Twilight raised herself to her hooves, only to see they were not hooves, but hands and feet, with toes, and looked at her surroundings, only to find there was nothing. just a vast white expanse, the only visible thing around was a large stone gate with strange inscriptions all over it, and Truth, kneeling before the gate
She then realized how cold she was, she looked down and saw that she had no fur, no clothes and no wings, she reached up in order to confirm her suspicions, she had no horn either
"Welcome miss Sparkle" Said Truth,
"Umm, where am I? And what am I?" Asked Twilight
"You are standing before the portal of truth, and you are a Human" Replied Truth
"But what about my Wings and Horn, and why am I a human?" Twilight Asked
"Humans have neither of those things, and you are a human because you are on the Amestrian side of my portal" Explained Truth "you are here be cause you MUST help Edward Elric, he cannot do this on his own"
"But what about Equestria?" Asked Twilight, her breath quickening as she began to worry
"You need not worry I have already told the Princess of my plan, that is why I was at the Canterlot Castle" Said Truth Calmly
"But..." Began Twilight
"The Princess will tell people you have gone to visit, prince Edward's homeland and Introduce your self to his father" Interrupted Truth
Twilight, her questions all answered fell to her knees unsure of what to do now
"I shall send you to the village where Ed is staying at the current time, be aware though, time passes quicker in Amestris" Said Truth
"Right, how do I leave for this village" Asked Twilight
"Leave that to me" Said Truth, and Twilight's Vision faded to black
Ed sat in the village his head resting on his fist, in the pose of 'the thinker' statue, A bright blue flash in front of him broke his concentration, and there on the floor was a girl, probably about his age, she was naked and her hair looked like...
"Twilight?" he asked, blushing furiously
"Ed?" she asked groggily, she pulled herself to her feet and Ed looked away, his face turning almost as red as his jacket
"Twilight, umm... your'e... naked" Said Ed, His face finally reaching the same colour as his jacket
"So?" Asked Twilight
"It's not Socially acceptable to walk around like that here"
Now it was Twilight's turn to go red
Ed took off his jacket and threw it towards her, "put that on, and then we'll go and find some clothes for you" He said
Twilight drew the coat around herself, It was slightly too short in the sleeves, but at least it covered her up
"Right, I know where I can get some materials" Said Ed,
Ed then took her hand and began to guide her through the village
