"But Marco, Ludo hasn't attacked for weeks now!"
"Star." Marco sighed as he sat on the couch and looked at his friend. "That probably means he's making an even bigger plan to attack us!"
"But..." Star had tried to come up with a reasonable explanation but her mind went blank.
"And my parents are in Hawaii so he could attack anytime now!" Marco added. "Maybe we should go somewhere till my parents are back..."
"Like our own vacation?" Star smiled. "But what if my parents call? I can't exactly bring a mirror with me."
"They'll just assume you're in Hawaii with them or something." Marco replied.
"But I can't think of anywhere Ludo wouldn't find us..." Star pondered but to no avail, almost every dimension was discovered by Ludo.
"Well...where did Pony Head come from? She seemed chill, so maybe wherever she came from was, well, a peaceful place." Marco suggested.
"You mean Equestria?" Star's eyes and hearts lit up. "I've never bothered to visit, that seems like a pretty good idea!"
"Was there a reason why you never went there?" Marco asked suspiciously.
"Mmm...nope!" Star chirped, she grabbed Marco off the couch and grabbed the Dimensional Scissors.
"Wait! Are we going?!" Marco tried to move but Star had her nails digging deep into his hoodie.
"Yep! Seems like a great idea!" Star cut a hole and grabbed her wand and plunged into the hole, dragging Marco along with.
But it wasn't as great as it seemed.
A hole to Equestria did open, but right before they could reach into it, both holes disappeared, leaving the two in between dimensions.
"Great! Now we're STUCK IN HERE!" Marco snapped."...Star?"
Marco saw Star looked too horrified to answer him, being in a situation not even her parents have experienced.
"We're going to die here!" Star whispered. "I never even got to tell Oskar how I felt!"
"It's not like..." Marco started but kept his mouth shut and floated down to where Star was at. "Hey...it's OK."
Star felt Marco's hand on her shoulder and put her hand on his...hoof?!
"AHH!" Star and Marco screamed at his new hoof at the end of his arm.
Marco looked in shock as small yellow ears sprung over Star's head.
"Wh-what?" Star stammered. "What's wrong with me?!"
"You have ears..." Marco said. Star grabbed them with her hands and tried to pull them off when suddenly, her human ears were gone.
"Stop!" Marco gasped. "Those are the only ears you have!"
Star flinched as he was right, his words were only heard by the yellow ears.
More hooves appeared from the ends of Marco's legs and a big tail popped out of his clothes, light brown pony ears also replaced his human ones.
"I'll try to get us out!" Star yelled. She floated to where the hole to Echo Creek was but it did not reappear.
"NOO-" Star's cry was cut off as a snout extended from her face and her teeth began changing.
Marco was sickened by Star's muffled cries, sickened at whoever set up this sick trap. But he couldn't do anything as his transformation was almost complete.
After five more minutes, they were both done transforming, and the hole to Equestria opened and threw them both in...
They landed on the ground near a forest, both tired from their ordeal.
"Oh god, we're ponies." Marco muttered, looking at his own hooves.
Star looked at the distraught stallion before her. Light brown with a darker brown mane and brown eyes, two wings, and a red hoodie on his flank.
"Marco?" Star looked at his wings in amazement and turned to herself. Nope, no wings.
Meanwhile, Marco was taking her new appearance in. She was a cyan earth pony with a blonde mane and her devil horns were on it, her blue eyes still in place and a picture of her wand on her flank.
"You're..." Marco started but didn't finish, they had to find the Dimensional Scissors.
Star got up and took the wand in her mouth while Marco got up and noticed his wings.
"Woah..." Marco said in surprise. "How come I got wings and you didn't?"
"You're right, I shoulda got them." Star muttered with the wand in her mouth.
They finally saw the Dimensional Scissors.
But they were already being picked up by a pony clad in armor.
"HEY, that's ours!" Star snapped, chasing after them.
Marco tried flapping his wings to get to him, but crashed into a tree.
Marco sighed, got out of the tree, and tried to catch up with Star.
The pony in armor kept running towards a town with Star and Marco hot on their heels. They didn't stop chasing the pony, not even when they were in the town in front of many ponies.
"Rainbow Turbo Blast!" Star snarled through her teeth as she pointed her wand at the pony in armor, the blast deflected off the pony's armor.
But then it hit her straight in the chest.
"STAR!" Marco cried as the cyan pony went limp and rolled till her body stopped at his hooves.
"M-Marco?" Star whispered. "I don't want to die..."
"You won't! Oh god, I..." Marco began panicking. She can't die, not now! Not for a long time!
"SOMEONE HELP!" Marco screamed.
Suddenly, two mares ran fast to her side: one orange and one white with a purple mane.
"Oh my!" The white mare gasped. "Dear, please calm down for your injured friend!"
"You'll make it harder for her if you keep panickin'!" The orange earth pony snapped at Marco.
Marco breathed in and out slowly and tried his hardest not to think about what could happen to Star...
"We'll take her to the hospital." the orange mare said. "I'll bring the wheelbarrow, and you two can place her in it."
"Ok...okay." Marco whispered as the orange mare broke into a sprint while the white mare began speaking soft words to Star while holding her hoof.
Marco kept hoping, that's all he could do.
