Operation Harmony Separation
In Canterlot Castle, principal and sub-principal of Canterlot High were astonishingly looking at the beautiful white alicorn in front of them, and for the alicorn she looked at them mostly with curiosity. She took a sip of her tea and with the proper calm of a Ruler, she made a small nod.
“Let me guess: you two are related to the Chaos Energy explosion we felt a little ago, right? Anyway, I am Princess Celestia of Equestria, it’s a pleasure to meet you”
The two sisters exchanged a look and shrugged.
“Ehem, Luna Skies. Educator, I’m finishing my doctorate and I work as sub-principal in Canterlot High” said the blue-skinned woman shaking the hoof Celestia was offering her. “And… this whole situation is pretty weird”
“Not a problem, and you dear?”
“Celestia Skies, also educator and I have two masters in child psychology and education. Also Principal of Canterlot High”
The Princess shook her counterpart’s hand as well and smiled.
“Well, let’s hope this little trick ends soon, in the meantime why don’t you enjoy yourselves for a little? With the recent events, I’ve learnt that that’s the best way to face the Lord of Chaos’ pranks”
“I wish it was that easy with Sonata Dusk’s group, the troublemakers your Lord of Chaos named as Agents of Chaos in our school” said Principal Celestia crossing her arms.
“What you mean?” Asked the Princess. “Pranks are fun, and want it or not Chaos is part of the natural order of things just as Harmony. Instead of getting mad, it’s healthier to try to see the bright side of things and enjoy yourselves, and who knows, you can have a really good time with the result. I’ve laugh countless times with the kid’s ideas. Between the three of us there’s only a few things that truly angers me and Spike’s pranks are not one of it”
Principal Celestia nodded.
“Listen, if there’s someone who appreciates humor and pranks, that’s me. But the problem is that Sonata’s pranks are too distractive for the students and several time we had no choice but cancel the classes just because one of those pranks. I mean, I know the dragon had the best intention when he named a Team of Chaos in our school but the problem is he didn’t realize this would affect the students in long term; and since the group of pranksters are just a bunch of children, they can’t understand it either”
“Oh, now I get it!” Said Princess Celestia. “As an educator myself, I get how frustrating could that be. But if they’re your students, why don’t you just ground them? Or even expel them from the school even if I personally dislike the option…”
“Yeah, me too” mumbled the sub-principal. “But the problem is they’re too meticulous with their pranks and every time they make a trick, they make sure to erase all the evidence, and without the evidence, we’re unable to do anything about it”
Princess Celestia seemed to considerate it for a minute and nodded.
“I’ll speak with Spike in person with this ends. Yes, yes, you have all the right to be upset”
Then the Princess asked to her personnel for more tea for her guests and once they all sat around the tea table, they started a happy chit-chat about more pleasant subjects as family and friends (learn that her counterpart and her sister’s were 44 and 39 respectively and also that in their universe their parents were still alive).
“I have a request” suddenly said Sub-principal Luna. “Where’s my other me? I would like to see me… if it’s possible”
Princess Celestia smiled.
“Of course! Luna is… mmh, its four o’clock so I guess she’s relaxing in her headquarters. Follow me, I’m sure she’ll happy to see herself”
So the two humans followed Celestia at Luna’s personal castle wing that the sub-principal had to admit it was precisely her style: with beautiful designs in black, silver and blue all over. And finally they arrived at the gym, where they found the two hall monitors looking at the ring.
“Asuna, Kazuto! What are you doing here?” Asked Sub-principal Luna happy to see them.
“Just enjoying the show” said Kazuto. “By the way, do you know anything about fencing, Sub-principal?”
“Eh… no, why?” Asked Luna.
“Because of that” said Asuna pointing to the ring.
So the two educator sisters approached to see what was going on: it was the alicorn version of Luna, fencing furiously with the pony versions of Asuna and Kazuto; and no matter how hard she tried, even with her magic as backup, she couldn’t break the unicorn’s or pegasus’ defense. And to make things worse, the two of them take turns to pass to the offensive and Luna was taking a lot of damage.
They kept like that for a while until they finally decided to finish Luna with their signature moves:
“Star Burst STREAM!”
“Mother’s ROSARIO!”
And as always Luna ended up crashing against a wall completely defeated.
The Pegasus, Black Swordsman, offered a hoof to help her stand.
“Okay, we’re done for today”
“Thank you guys, it’s always a pleasure to train with you”
Lighting Flash smiled to the Princess.
“You’re getting better Princess” congratulated the unicorn.
“I know, you too. That’s the problem” admitted Luna.
So they stood and walked where the counterparts were waiting for them.
“Okay, what’s this?” Asked Princess Luna with a chuckle.
“Spike’s newest trick” explained her sister. “Interesting, right?”
Luna took a close look to the four humans and offered a hoof to them.
“Nice to meet you, I’ve heard a lot of Canterlot High and the other side of the Mirror, but this is the first time I have such a close look. Well, I guess it’s nice to meet me”
“Nice to meet me too” smiled Sub-principal Luna. “Sunset Shimmer always tells us a lot of her homeland, but we never thought we will actually see it”
Again they started to chat happily relaxing at the situation as usual for the ponies. But for the Japanese students, they were actually more interested in another detail.
“So you’re not from Japony?” Asked Kazuto Kirigaya.
“No, Aincrad” clarified the Black Swordsman.
“Okay… this is weird, I mean, weirder than the current situation” said Asuna.
“Why?” Asked Lighting Flash.
“You definitely look like us, but you resemble more to our avatars of ALO”
“Alo?”
“A videogame we use to play”
“A what now?”
“It doesn’t matter, the thing is Aincrad is a location in ALO”
The captains of the Lunar Guard were about to ask what they were talking about, when a servant appeared carrying a package.
“Princess Celestia, you received a tribute”
Celestia smiled to the humans.
“This always happens, I do what I do because I care about my little ponies, but they keep sending me gifts to thank me”
“I understand” said Principal Celestia. “My former students and parents of the current ones also send us presents from time to time”
The alicorn nodded and opened the package and suddenly her gentle smile vanished and her mane passed from Aurora-Boreal to a threatening flame.
“This is the sixth time… THE SIXTH TIME!” Shouted Celestia looking furiously at Black and Lighting. “SINCE YOU SPREAD THE RUMOR OF ME BEING A HIPPY, I’VE RECEIVED SIX TRIBUTES OF CANNABIS!”
The two leaders of the Lunar Guard exchanged a concerned look and began to laugh at Celestia’s face. It was hilarious, the joke-tribute even had a note that said ‘Peace and Love’.
The Princess of the Sun got even angrier but the warriors ignored her and kept laughing until Luna called to order.
“Black, Lighting, stop that. My sister is noticeably offended by this tribute and your laughs are not helping. What are you going to do about it?”
“Get the hell out of here before she kills us” suggested Lighting.
“Fair enough, go and take your counterparts with you”
So the pony warriors turned to the hall monitors.
“This way please”
And they left so Luna turned to her own counterpart and her sister’s.
“Okay, what shall we do now?”
“Discipline your own Guard can be good start” said Celestia angrily. “They keep making jokes about me and you do nothing about it”
“That’s not true, I laugh” said Princess Luna shrugging. “Besides your own Guard make jokes about me too; and yeah, they call you a hippie but call me an emo and from time to time they ask me to show them my cuts. It’s so stupid that I please them”
“You have cuts?”
“I practice a lot of fencing”
In the meantime the two humans just stared at the two alicorns with a confused look.
“Ey Tia, do we look like that when we argue?” Asked Sub-principal Luna.
“I guess, let’s record us one day” answered Principal Celestia with a chuckle.
Back to Ponyville, the Bearers of Harmony were discussing what should they do next
“We obviously can’t just go to the Palace to open the portal to Canterlot High” mumbled Twilight.
“Why not? It sounds like fun!” Smiled Pinkie Pie.
“Knowing them it won’t be that easy” said Applejack with resignation.
“I know but as long as we don’t open the portal we won’t be able to fix this” said Twilight.
In the meantime in the Palace of Friendship, the two groups of Chaos were coordinating as well preparing for their next move.
“So are you ready, Sonata?” Asked Spike. “Or do you need me to create something else?”
“No, I’m ready!” Assured happily the girl. “You six protect the other portal, we’ll protect this one!”
“And how you’re gonna do it?” Asked Shadow Bloom curious.
“Ya’ know, just the usual” said Apple Bloom. “For the first time in history all those repetitions of Home Alone will be good for something”
“Besides make me feel old, you say?” Asked Sonata with a smile.
The human kids laughed at this and ran to their positions.
“It’s a shame, I really wanted to check this out” said Mist sadly.
“We’ll record it for you” promised human Rumble. “Now go!”
So the Equestrian Team of Chaos went to the Crystal Empire to protect the other Mirror through a crazy door while the group of humans waited, luckily not for so long:
Twilight placed her hoof on the door knob, but instead of open it she received an electric shock.
“Ouch! What the hay?”
“Something happened dear?” Asked Rarity placing a hoof on the door knob as well, receiving a little shock on her own. “Ey, what’s this?”
Dash chuckled at this.
“A child’s play!” Smiled the Pegasus. “I used to do the same in Cloudsdale: you connect a battery and a couple of cables to the other side on the knob and every time somepony tries to open it, they receive a small shock.
“It worked in Cloudsdale because there are almost no unicorns there” said Rarity preparing her magic. “You don’t have to be a genius”
“Wait!” Said Applejack. “A’ have a bad feeling about this”
But it was already too late, Rarity opened the door activating the pulley trap set right behind the door, and received a bag on flour right to her face.
“Ey!” Complained the unicorn.
“Second charge is ready!” Announced human Sweetie Belle from her positions above the stairs.
“Don’t you dare!” Shouted Rarity.
But she did, Sweetie threw a water balloon to her face turning the flour into dough.
“This is certainly denigrating” sighed Rarity.
“A’ tried to warn ya!” Said Applejack charging fully into the Castle. “Ey, who turned on the conditioned air? Well, whatever”
And ran to Sweetie Belle, but someone had flooded the floor and with the help of the conditioned air (that thanks to Spike’s powers was cooling at impossible levels) the water had turned into ice and Applejack helplessly fell to the floor activating a new pulley system that dropped a bucket of dough on her head too.
“Ey!” Shouted the cowgirl.
“Sorry, but we don’t have any powers like the other Agents of Chaos so we have to improvise” said the human Apple Bloom appearing aside Sweetie Belle.
“Watch it, flying attack!” Suddenly announced Sweetie.
Effectively, Rainbow and Twilight charged to them from the air but they were intercepted with Twilight’s own fire hose by Rumble and Scoots. The pressure forcibly sent them to the floor and alicorn and Pegasus cursed at this offense but then they hadn’t too much time to complain since a new bag of flour impacted on them.
“Okay it’s our turn! Let’s go Fluttershy!” Shouted Pinkie Pie trying the backdoor followed by the shy Pegasus.
But as soon as Pinkie put a hoof on the floor, she noticed the humans had covered the whole floor with glue. Looking at this Fluttershy preferred to enter through a window but hesitated for a few seconds trying to detect the traps before she got into one.
Suddenly Pinkie Pie’s sixth sense warned her of two heavy objects going straight to her like pendulums so to avoid them she ducked but as soon as she did, she remembered the whole floor was covered in glue so she got stuck.
“Ey, this wasn’t very nice!” Shouted the pink mare.
The two pendulum-like-objects (two bags of flour hanging from a cable) collided right above her and she got completely covered.
“Oh dear…” mumbled Fluttershy.
“Just like our very own Pinkie Pie, you have to cover all angles to avoid her Pinkie-sense” laughed human Babs Seed looking at her trap from the other side of the room.
Fluttershy would use her Stare on the girl but she preferred to enter through a window in the next room, the one that leaded to the Japony-stile bathroom.
“Okay, I am here and…”
Someone dropped a bucket of warm milk on her and next, Opal jumped on her and began to lick her all over.
At the end the group of heroines left disgracefully. Sonata just giggled at this and waved a hand to say good bye.
“Thank you for the fun! And don’t worry, the leader says he’ll clean after this”
The mane six just groaned in exasperation at this.
“Any suggestions?” Asked Twilight.
“You mean besides use our full strength against them?” Complained Rainbow.
“This kids aren’t like our Team of Chaos, we have to be careful since they don’t have especial powers” reminded her Fluttershy.
Rainbow sighed.
“Whatever”
“In the meantime I suggest we take a shower before think in a new plan” asked Rarity.
“Fine” agreed Twilight. “But I wonder, how Sunset and the others are doing?”
In the human Equestria, the girls’ counterparts were waiting for the Princess’ answer or that the portal opens but nothing happened. There was no way to activate it and go back to Equestria.
“Something must be keeping Princess Twilight occupied” said Sunset.
“You don’t say!” Complained Rainbow Dash. “She haves two annoyances in her world: Sonata and the nuisance of Spike. No offense!”
“None taken” said the dog. “But hey, is there any other way to cross the portal or open it by ourselves?”
“We don’t have the magic” sighed Sunset. “Or at least we can’t use it to open the portal”
“What about my amulet?” Suggested Twilight. “Last time it worked”
“I think is a great idea” said Fluttershy thoughtful.
“Okay, in that case let’s hold hand and do the ‘friendship is magic thingy’” said Applejack.
“Equestria, here we go!” Cheered Pinkie Pie.
“I hope it works” mumbled Rarity a little worried.
Concentrating the Power of Friendship in Twilight’s amulet they opened a small portal, and just like the last time (during the Friendship Games), a lot of random portals appeared around the school; and from the biggest one, right in front of them, what came was a stream of hot lava.
The girls shrieked and jumped backwards while a couple of voices were heard from inside the portal.
“The tub is ready darling, you can go inside”
“Not yet, it seems like there’s a hole in the tub, I’ll check it out”
And much for the girls’ surprise, the head of a giant black dragon with red eyes leaned out of the portal.
“Ehem, can you tell me what’s going on in here?”
The Mane 7 looked to each other without knowing how to react to this, when suddenly Adagio and Aria ran to them.
“Hey… is that…?” Asked Aria.
“It’s a portal to our world, it haves to be him!” Assured Adagio.
And then the two of them bowed.
“King Flames, oh King Flames!”
“It’s an honor to see you again”
The dragon raised an eyebrow.
“What now? Oh, it is you! The Dazzlings… maybe I don’t recognize your faces anymore but those voices are unmistakable. Where’s the other one?”
“We don’t know, oh King Flames!” said Adagio still bowing. “But I want you to know we still praise you as our rightful ruler and…”
The King of all dragons rolled his eyes and turned to Twilight and the others when he felt the magic power coming from her amulet.
“You! Do you mind to close this portal? You’re wasting my bath’s lava!”
“Oh, sure! I’m terribly sorry” said Twilight using the amulet to get everything back to normal, or at least everything besides the new crater full of lava in front of the school. “Okay, that was weird”
“I have a feeling this is going to be a long day” sighed Sunset.
But Pinkie was interested in something else.
“Do you already knew that guy?”
“That was our King” explained Adagio. “We served him with all our devotion… until we took that job from the Other One and he vanished us from the Kingdom of Reptilia, then we moved to Equestria where we were vanished by that unicorn”
“Oh!” Said Pinkie
“And he’s also the oldest and wisest being in all our world” added Aria. “So great that during the Pony Wars he defeated Celestia and Luna’s parents without help”
“The Pony Wars?” Asked Sunset.
“Did Celestia never told you about the monsters she had for parents and grandfather?” Asked Adagio. “I mean, we’re evil but those two were on their own league”
“What they did?”
“It doesn’t matter now, thanks to our King!” Said Aria proudly. “It’s a shame we’re permanently expelled from Reptilia, but also an honor since it was our King who gave us that punishment”
The Mane 7 just looked at the Dazzlings with a sweat-drop on their temples.
“So what now?” Asked Pinkie Pie. “Shall we try again?”
“I don’t think we have a choice” said Sunset sighing. “Okay, let’s do it again”
They tried again this time leading to a beautiful field with expertly cut grass. And were about to make a step in when a football ball came out of the portal and was caught by Rainbow.
“What now?”
The sound of a bunch of hooves trotting towards them called their attention.
“Stampede!” Shrieked Pinkie turning to a group buffalos dressed in large sports shirts and plastic-like helmets charging to them.
Rainbow gulped and threw them back the ball before they get them and Twilight closed the portal just at the time someone shouted ‘TOUCH-DOWN!’
“Again?” Asked Fluttershy softly.
Sunset nodded and the group tried one more time, but this time what they got was a stream of water right to their faces.
“Ponyagara falls” explained Sunset.
“As ya said, this is gonna be a looooong day” chuckled Applejack.
The two Dazzlings just exchanged a look and shrugged.
“Okay is not like this isn’t funny but we have nothing else to do here” said Aria. “See you!”
“Yeah, tell us if you see the King again”
And they left while the others kept trying.
Back to Equestria:
“Okay, we have to think in an alternate way to access to the portal… so what about we use the chimney?”
“But is not Hearts Warming Eve yet!” Objected Rarity. “Not to mention we the showers we just took would be wasted!”
Twilight took a deep breath.
“Fine! I can try to teleport us inside but I don’t promise anything” warned the purple alicorn. “We would probably end up in another trap”
“I guess you’re right” said Fluttershy thoughtful,
“But it will be fun!” Said Pinkie happily.
By their ways Applejack and Rainbow thinking in a solution on their own.
“The balconies! We can try enter through the balconies!” Suggested Applejack. “Rainbow, would you mind to give me a lift?”
“Sure, and unlike teleportation we would know exactly we’ll end up” smiled the cyan Pegasus. “No offense Twi”
“None taken, we can try both; let’s split again”
“We’re going with you Twilight!” Said Fluttershy and Rarity at the unison.
“I guess I’ll join AJ and Dashie” smiled Pinkie Pie.
And after make a quick high-hoof they did as they say.
“But I warn you, I can only lift one at the time” warned Rainbow Dash.
“Don’t worry Dashie, I got you cover!” Said Pinkie running as fast as she could to Sugar Cube Corner and returning with a couple of plungers.
Rainbow just rolled her eyes at this and took Applejack between her hooves to lift her through the air while Pinkie Pie followed them by climbing agilely with the help of the plungers; they didn’t need to say they were aiming for the one in the tallest tower to minimize the possibilities to end in another trap.
By their way Twilight and company appeared in the Japony-style bathroom, but this time she was prepared and covered her friends and herself with a magic force-field.
“Okay let’s go on” said Twilight going straight to the door.
“Allow me darling” said Rarity opening it with her magic since Twilight was busy keeping them safe from the next trick.
And as it was expected, there was a trap waiting for them: a bunch of orange fruit-scented pills that rolled straight to the giant bathtub.
“I don’t get it” said Rarity.
“Ehem… girls” said Fluttershy looking at the tub.
The water was reacting at the pills beginning to somehow boil… and then it was Twilight remembered, there was a very similar trap on Spike’s room.
“Effervescent pills!”
“WHAT?”
“Great” said Rarity face-hoofing while the orange water began to drag them to a hallway.
“Are least we’re in” said Fluttershy.
And for Pinkie, Dash and Applejack’s group, they managed to climb to the balcony safely and opened the door ready to get in the castle.
“Wait!” Said Pinkie Pie taking a bottle of powder she grabbed from the twins and sent a poof to the hallway, revealing the almost invisible strings all over it ready to activate a trap.
Rainbow’s jaw dropped.
“How did you know?”
“Pinkie-sense”
“Pinkie, ye’re impressive” said Applejack.
Pinkie smiled proudly and they began to walk slowly avoiding the strings and taking a good look of the traps: a bucket of soapy water expertly placed in a slide that leaded to the stairs, six or seven smoke bombs along with a few nets on the floor and even a bottle of itchy powder waiting to be spilled.
And the group safely went downstairs where Sonata was waiting for them with a huge smile.
“Why are you smiling? We avoided your tricks!” Said Rainbow.
Sonata shrugged and without saying a word she pulled a string aside her, bathing the heroines with a second bucket soapy water on them; making them fall and land on a trampoline that sent them straight to the first floor where Twilight and her group were already waiting for them.
“So what now? Harmony Grenade?”
“I don’t know if it would work” said the purple alicorn. “The only trick that works with magic is the conditioner air, but nothing else. They have no powers”
“Is surprisingly hard try to fight a bunch of enemies who uses only their inventiveness” said Pinkie giggling.
“Well, I guess we have no choice but go straight to plan B, go to the Crystal Empire and use Cadence’s mirror” sighed Twilight. “I didn’t wanted to since I guess our Team of Chaos is waiting there”
“A’ guess so but believe it or not A’ prefer to deal with them instead of this other team of chaos” said Applejack.
“Me too” mumbled Fluttershy. “At least we do know how to deal with them; this other kids are a completely different story”
“I guess so, let’s take a shower again and then a train to the Empire” sighed Twilight resigned.
And one more time they leaded to their homes to clean themselves and then face whatever their Team of Chaos had prepared for them, even if the initial commotion between the inhabitants of Ponyville and the human counterparts were starting to calm down.
To be honest after the initial shock, several of humans and ponies were getting along just fine:
“This is simply fascinating!” Said the pony Doctor Hooves to his human self while holding a Kindle. “So all the books are just here without having to carry the weight?”
“The greatest invention ever!” Smiled the human proudly. “It saved me a lot of visits to my chiropractor”
“I wish we have something like this in this world” sighed the pony.
In another side, Derpy and Derpy were relaxing after a long day of work both as a mail-mare and Captain of Friendship: eating muffins!
“Delicious, sublime! Bon-Bon haves great recipes!” Smiled human Derpy.
“I know, and since we became officially the Guard of Friendship she bakes for the whole group” smiled the pony one. “I think I’ve eating more than I should this days… but who cares?”
“But between us, I like the ones I make the most”
“Of course! It’s practically custom-made!”
Unbelievably enough even the flower-trio were getting along well, and even made a synchronized faint when the two Roselucks poked their fingers while working with the roses.
“Just let’s take the train already!” Sighed Twilight after seeing this.
They bought the ticket and got in the train, but noticed the train was just going in circles around the forest and back to the Ponyville over and over again.
“This is more like it!” Smiled Rainbow. “Good old-fashioned chaos!”
“Yer’ right girl!” Said Applejack. “After deal with the humans, this is like a walk on the park!”
And suddenly a young mare appeared on the wagon pushing a cart.
“Snacks! Who want some snacks?!”
“Oh me, me, ME!” Cheered Pinkie Pie.
“Not so fast!” Said Applejack detonating a Harmony Grenade.
The effect was immediate: the camouflage went backwards revealing Apple Bloom.
“How?” Asked the filly.
“A’ would recognize this apples everywhere” explained Applejack taking some of the black apples of chaos from Apple Bloom’s cart. “Yer’ not really trying, right?”
Apple Bloom giggled.
“No, we aren’t. Why should we if the humans already great a fantastic job?”
“Don’t remind me” said Rarity angrily. “What’s this all about?”
“Sonata” said a voice behind them.
They all turned, of course it was Spike in his floating throne along with the rest of the Equestrian Team of Chaos.
“Sonata?” Asked Twilight. “What do you mean?”
“That she doesn’t have confidence in her own abilities even if she’s the perfect leader of her team” explained the dragon, who by the way was wearing an engineer cap. “First she called us because she wanted that my other self lead their team instead of her saying she wasn’t worthy, and we agreed to help her”
“But only because we wanted her to realize their team doesn’t need a new leader. They need their leader: Sonata” completed Sweetie Belle.
“I see” said Twilight. “So all of this was about to build the confidence of someone who is already a pain in the flank even if she doesn’t have powers”
“Kind off” shrugged Rumble.
“At least you worry about your friends” said Pinkie angrily. “But what they did to us was just mean!”
“For real?” Asked Scoots. “I mean, we just used our powers to create what Sonata asked, we have no idea how was she going to use them”
“Are you crazy or what?!” Shouted Rarity. “How can you just randomly give things without asking first?”
“To be fair Chaos is all about randomness, so not knowing what our counterparts planned is kind of the point” protested Rumble. “I mean, that’s how we always act, each one haves their own plans to stop you from stopping us”
There was no use to keep arguing, instead they sat quietly until they arrived to the Crystal Empire.
“So what now? Are you going to try to stop us from stopping you as Rumble says?” Asked Rarity defensively.
“No, you suffered enough for today” said Spike. “Feel free to go”
The Mane 6 shrugged.
“They may be our villains but they’re kind from time to time” said Twilight. “Geez, I really wanted to get mad with them”
“I think it was on purpose to avoid getting grounded” suggested Fluttershy.
“Nice strategy, really nice” had to admit Applejack. “They’re very problematic but know how to avoid getting punished”
And while they were walking to the Crystal Castle to activate the original mirror, the Team of Chaos stood there watching them go.
“Okay, what now?”
“How about we go eat something?” Asked Spike when his stomach grumbled.
“Sounds like a plan!”
And they went, but it was when weird things started to happen; the dragon ate his crunchy hay and it was as good as always… but this time he felt like something was missing, like his body was asking him for something else, and the worst part was that he had a very good idea of what it was.
When the girls finally arrived to Candace’s Castle, the pink alicorn seemed surprised to see them.
“Eh, hi girls! What can I do for you?”
“The mirror to the other world, NOW!” Shouted Twilight.
Candace shrugged and let Twilight and company pass; and once they arrived to the mirror, Twilight activated the spell she used to unlock it and be able to cross it anytime she wanted as she did with the one in her own Castle.
At the same time the other Twilight used her amulet on her side and soon enough the two groups of Harmony were face to face.
“It seems it worked!” Cheered human Twilight. “After all this failed attempts!”
“What, you’ve been trying to locate us too?” Asked pony Twilight.
“You have no idea” said Sunset shrugging. “Anyway, are our classmates in here?”
“Yeah, but since there were two Teams of Chaos and only one Team of Harmony their Friendship was stronger and we couldn’t fix it. But now that you’re here…” started Twilight.
“We can fix it now” finished Sunset. “Okay, let’s do it!”
They held hands and hooves to finally release all their power. The shockwave was twice as powerful as the usual; just like the Chaos’.
In Ponyville, the two groups of kids felt the power going towards parts.
“It is time, right?” Asked Sonata sadly.
“I’m afraid so” smiled Spike. “But hey, it was funny”
“Yeah, funny” sighed Sonata. “It’s a shame your other self didn’t wanted to join us but still I had a great time”
Spike made a face-claw.
“Don’t you get it? You don’t need a new leader. Sonata, you’re a great leader!”
“Yeah, we don’t need any other leader, we need you!” Assured human Sweetie Belle. “Who was the one who helped us to have better grades? Who’s the one who always make sure we don’t left any evidence behind?”
“Yeah, we follow you Sonata. Who needs a stupid dog if we have a powerful Siren in our side?”
Sonata looked at her friends a little shocked at first but then hugged them.
“Thank you guys”
“Promise us you’ll never doubt about yourself anymore”
“It’s a promise!” Said Sonata.
And during all that time, the wave of Harmony were getting closer and closer.
And finally hit them. The Headquarters of Chaos were Harmony-proof, but this time the Power combined of 13 Bearers of Harmony was more than the Headquarters could handle.
“Bye Sonata!” Smiled Spike.
“We’ll see each other again!” Assured the girl. “Nice to see you!”
And every single one of the humans vanished from Equestria, everything it was back to normal.
“Okay, what now?” Asked Rumble.
“Easy, we clean the castle” said Spike. “Luckily almost everything was soap and water”
“Oh come on!” Groaned the rest of the Team of Chaos.
“At least wait until our powers get back” said Sweetie Belle.
“We owe that to our sisters” said Spike.
They had three long hours ahead so they better hurry.
Kingdom of Reptilia, Draguentina:
In the beautiful city of Buenos Aires, in certain ‘churrasco restaurant’ the grill master Pirotecnia Kelvin (or Pina for her friends) was happily attending her clients when in a black and purple light certain God of Chaos appeared.
“What are you doing here?” Asked the dragoness.
But Spike didn’t answered, he was too busy shaking and breathing heavily.
“What’s wrong kid?”
Spike grinded his teeth.
“Meat, I NEED MEAT!” Shouted Spike slamming the table. “Give me the most carnivorous thing you have!”
Pina smiled.
“It’s okay kid, I’m glad you’re finally embracing your nature”
