Preparing for the Banquet

The two weeks of preparing and waiting were finally at the end of the road for our main cast as they were all in the Crystal Empire with gracious expressions ready to venture to a world they had never experienced nor even seen before in their lives. Celestia and Luna were just as livid with joy to see Nathan's world because they had always wanted to see the ways of human nature, so were the young six along with Zodiac, Starlight was there too, but as usual before they departed, Nathan once again went over his rules that he usually went over whenever he took somepony to his world. But this time, because he had done it enough, Twilight decided to cover for him.

"Alright listen up." Twilight said, "Before we depart, Nathan usually goes through some ground rules whenever he takes a pony or creature to his world. But I'll lay them down."

"First, when we enter his world, you will find a lot of things that are not of this world such as transportation, so don't be surprised. Second, the weather there handles itself, therefore, we will abide by the conditions of the weather there."

"Third, you all will become humans like him, so you will not only lose your fur, feathers, wings, and tails, but you will also think, walk, eat, and talk like humans."

"Fourth you're names will be changed." that got all of them arguing in rapidly.

"Why?" asked Gallus

"That's stupid." replied Sandbar.

"It would be ridiculous yet foolish to do something like that." said Luna.

Twilight interrupted, "Nathan doesn't want you all made fun of if humans heard your real names, so we're doing it so you all don't get ridiculed, Nathan, hand them their names."

That's when Nathan stood up to the plate and handed them papers containing their undercover human names.

"Zodi, again you'll be Zack."

"Smolder, you'll be Sarah."

"Gallus, you'll be George."

"Celestia, you'll be Catherine and Luna will be Laura."

"Sandbar will be Samuel."

"Silverstream will be Melissa."

"Yona will be Jessica, and you will learn to talk regularly."

"Ocellus you will be Tracy."

"Starlight, you will be Kelly."

"The rest of y'all will stick with your regular names ah' gave y'all the last time."

"OK Nate, I believe we are ready for departure." said Celestia.

Nathan went over to the Crystal Heart, touched it with two fingers, and the portal opened up.

"OK, hang on every creature, this is going to be a fast take-off." he said as the portal sucked them all in.


Meanwhile in the city of Dallas, Lucy and Amber were preparing the children's outfits for the annual Thanksgiving banquet because the church Nathan attended supported and owned the Lone Star Orphanage, plus the church helped rebuild the orphanage. It was now even bigger with more luxury for the children, a new kitchen with better chefs, and a new swimming pool, but since it was fall, that was closed.

Anyway, as they were preparing the children's outfits, they looked out the window and saw the portal that Nathan comes through open up. They smiled and left the room to go outside to greet him, and just as they had thought, he had brought not only the ponies turned humans, but also every creature turned human.

"Whoa." exclaimed Sandbar.

"I have never been so amazed by anything in my life." replied Gallus as the young eight with the new ponies that hadn't been to this world were now surprised as what they were seeing.

"WHAT IS THAT????????!!!!!!!!!" Silverstream asked excitedly as she tried to fly to a car parked on the street but couldn't, she and the others went over to a big window to see their reflections, just as Nathan said, they were humans!!!!!!

"Nathan was right, we did turn into humans!" exclaimed Ocellus.

"Yona uncomfortable with new body." replied Yona stumbling backwards in her new African-American body.

"Hey where's Spike and Smolder?" asked Nathan.

"We're down here Nate." said their voices, Nathan looked down to see that not only had Spike become a dog again, but Smolder was one too, except her breed represented that of a golden retriever and she was a bit bigger than Spike's puppy form.

"Well Smolder, ah' guess you and Spike can just stick with your regular names after all." he said with a nervous laugh as Smolder stared at him disapprovingly.

On the other hand, Zodiac was mesmerized at how his mother and aunt looked in their new bodies, they looked like their EQG versions, only their manes had been turned into regular hair both pulled back into ponytails and they wore floral dresses.

"Sister, I cannot believe how different we are." said Luna as she and Celestia looked at their reflections in the window.

"I must say, Nathan really did make a good prediction." said Celestia.

"Wow mommy, you look beautiful." said Zodiac.

Celestia was touched by this, "thanks sweetie."

Soon the door opened and out came Lucy and Amber with greeting expressions.

"Ms. Fanning, Ms. Brown!" Nathan said excitedly as he ran to them and hugged them.

"Hi Nathan, I see you've managed to invite new friends here." said Lucy.

"Yes, this is George, Samuel, Catherine, Laura, Melissa, Kelly, Jessica, and Tracy. Of course y'all remember mah' regular family."

"Well it sure is a pleasure to meet you all, welcome to Dallas." said Amber.

"Our pleasure." said Celestia (Catherine) as she picked up her son with her new hands, "I see you humans thrive really differently than we ponies do."

Nathan was really impressed yet happy that the orphanage was revamped and remodeled.

"Ah'm really happy that the orphanage is back in business in Ms. Brown." said Nathan.

"We are too Nate." said Lucy, "Now why don't you all come on in and get ready, we've got plenty of dress clothes for all of you.

"So glamorously excited." said Rarity.

Zodiac tapped his mother, "Mom, do we have to dress nice for this?"

"Yes dear." said Celestia, "This is a big thing for the humans, and I believe it would really make them happy if we do dress properly."

"Not to mention this church place is very complex in how creatures come." said Luna as they walked inside to get prepared for the banquet.
