As soon as Twilight and Sunset finished talking, Twilight went over to Starlight to fill her in on this situation. Starlight thought to herself how it would be nice to see her human friends again and if they would react the same way to being a pony that she reacted to being a human. "They'll probably like it here and get interested being their different races, especially the other Spike being a dragon."
"Yeah, and I wonder if the other me will be a alicorn or still be a unicorn like I used to be," wondered Twilight out loud, " there's a lot of unanswered questions to what will happen as well as a lot of strange things for there point of view probably."
"Alright then, let's get some rest and tomorrow I can go with you to ask our friends if they're fine with this."
"Alright then, good night."

The next morning, Twilight and Starlight started off the day going to the kitchen for breakfast and to ask Spike's opinion on the matter on both of there minds. Spike seemed okay with the matter, despite how they thought he would react. " I honestly just see it as seeing some old friends again after awhile," stated Spike, " It'll only really be weird around the other me, but I won't have to be around the other me all the time so yeah I'm in."
"Huh, I thought it'd be weird for everypony," said Twilight.
"I can get why you would think that, but keep in mind people think differently about certain things."
"Fair enough. Anyways Starlight and I are going to go out and see if the girls want to be a part of this, or if it'll be too weird for them. Do you want to come with us."
"No thanks, I think I'll get the guest rooms ready in case they stay overnight. Hopefully the other girls decide they're okay with this so things get interesting. Also, I recommend finding a way to be able to tell who's from which world."
"Alright, thanks for the advice and getting things ready; see you later Spike," said Twilight as she and Starlight walked out the front door.
Their friends had varying opinions on matter at hoof. Pinkie and Rainbow seemed a little excited at the idea. Pinkie seemed more curious how her friends would react to there other selves since she's already met both versions(check friendship games bloopers) herself, but Rainbow wanted to see if both versions were just as awesome as each other, mainly the other Rainbow Dash.
While Fluttershy wasn't too keen on the idea, she was willing to try it for her friends. Twilight told her not to worry since they were just other versions of her best friends who would never do anything to hurt her. This did seem to calm her a little luckily.
Last but not least, AJ and Rarity while fine with it said they might not be able to be there the whole time since they still had their respective businesses to take care of. Starlight did have the idea though that maybe if they were fine with it and managed not to get caught, they other versions of themselves could help out since they respected hard work(AJ) and just adored fashion(Rarity). Both AJ and Rarity refused at first, but after some convincing said only if their other selves were absolutely sure.
"Well that was easier than I thought," said Twilight on the way back to the castle," Now we just wait for Sunset's reply."
"I was thinking the exact same thing," said Starlight turning to Twilight," I mean AJ and Rarity were a little hesitant, but not too hesitant and they are just two of the five friends we had to convince, six friends if you include Spike."
"I mean it's not bad, just unexpected."
"Exactly!"
"Maybe were just overthinking it," said Twilight as they entered the castle," This should be considered a positive thing."

Back on Earth...
Since Twilight decided to ask their friends about going to Equestria the following day, Sunset decided to go and ask them as well. While they didn't know it, their replies were almost exactly the same as the Mane 6's. Applejack was worried about leaving the farm, but the rest of the Apples, who were around at the time, said they could manage for a few days. Rarity was a little worried she would get a little behind on some fashion orders, but when she checked her schedule, she saw that she really didn't have that much and what she did have she had a reasonable amount of time to get finished.
Pinkie and Rainbow were once again excited for the idea for the same reasons, reactions and awesomeness comparisons.
Finally, Fluttershy was once again only a little comfortable, but was willing to try it for the sake of her friends. Also according to Sunset, Princess Twilight said she had an even stronger connection to animals there, going as far as being to talk to them without the need of her pendant.
Everyone decided to start packing and meet up at the portal tomorrow morning. on the way home, Twilight and Sunset stuck a conversation discussing the matter.
"What's Equestria like?"
"It's kinda hard to explain. It's almost completely different, but at the same time completely the same, " said Sunset thinking back on the matter. Getting so close to going back home was both exciting and terrifying for her. Since she was from there it was comforting, it's also where her bad history starts. What if she ran into Princess Celestia when showing her origins. That would be awkward definitely.
"But what should I expect?"
"Well you'll be able to use magic easier, probably, since you'll have a horn, as well as other spells if you want to learn them," said Sunset, "I'm not sure if we'll be there long enough for more advanced spells however. Just know that no matter what, they'll always welcome you as a friend."
"Alright, see you tomorrow at the portal," said Twilight as she started walking in a different direction to her house.
"See you then," said Sunset waving goodbye. Getting pretty close to her house, Sunset decided to take out the journal and start sending her information like everyone was going and were hoping to get there in the late morning. Princess Twilight quickly replied saying that was okay and was excited to see everyone again. Although when she saw them it wouldn't be "everyone" so to speak. Sunset made an eyeroll at this joke and wrote goodbye.
"Well, I guess late tomorrow morning starts our summer vacation."
