The official prequel to Rainbow's Lament!

When an emergency arises in the middle of the night, Dusk Shine finds himself on a journey into the Everfree Forest to uncover the reason behind Bubble Berry's sudden, unexplained insanity. There's just one problem: something is chasing after him on his quest. Something mysterious, dark and horrible...

...and it's catching up.

When an unexplained magical occurrence brings the mane 6 to their genderbent world, Rainbow Blitz invites his clone to stay with him, resulting in a passionate, if drunken night together.

However, when Blitz awakens the next morning it is to find his clone gone and the door wide open, and with Ponyville in the grips of its worst blizzard in nearly two decades, can the two spectral speedsters survive the paralysing cold?

My first attempt at a one-shot.

What would you do, if you met a pony who was at once your brother, and yet not? Applebuck wishes to reunite with his 'Cousin JayJay', and braves the dimensional divide to reach his goal. But being a small foal, how will he deal with a world in which everything is flipped? His friends, his family, and even... himself?

Twilight and her five friends are transported during a botched spell, across dimensions to... Ponyville, Equestria? But not the same one that they knew. Sitting on a bench is Harpsy and Babar. The Doctoress avoids apples from an aspiring Applebuck. And in a library across town, six stallions join their forces as they try to decipher the appearance of filly look-alikes of themselves around Ponyville!

"We have to be brave now, Scootaloo," Dash said. "Just close your eyes, and it'll be all over by the time you open them again."
