How did you guys like going back in time for a little bit? I wish I knew what happened, all I know is that you went there,” Pinkie greeted someone while looking and the wall from Sunset’s perspective. This frustrated Annabeth to no end but at last this time she didn’t faint! Progress! “Has she escaped the insane Asylum recently or what?” Percy whispered as he sat down next to Sunset. “Honestly I have no clue. When I first met her she made no sense to me,” Sunset whispered back. “Does she make sense to you now?” “Oh hell no. Me and my friend, Twilight Sparkle, have been trying to figure her out for about a year now.” “Poor, poor, Wise Girl. I don’t think that they will make good friends,” Percy and Sunset watched as Annabeth went up to Pinkie to tell her to stop talking to a wall. Pinkie just rebounded her which made her all the angrier. Storming away into the female restroom Pinkie started following her to say sorry. “Hey, you haven’t seen Pinkie in action. When she wants to be friends with someone. She becomes friends with them,” Sunset emphasized looking Percy in the eyes with an intense look, “One of the hardest for her was Twilight who used to go to a rival school.” “Ok I’ll take your word for it. Who is this Twilight girl anyways?” Almost as if he had predicted it Rainbow came back with Twilight on her back panting. The reason for her panting was that Twilight had a huge backpack on her own back that look like it weighed twice as much as Twilight. “She is,” Sunset replied as she went up to the two girls, “Twilight, why do you have all of this stuff? Did you pack enough for the next week?!” “What do you mean? This is just my researching equipment,” Twilight opened up her bag to show that she had stuffed it with notebooks, pencils, calculators, and a whole bunch of other gear. “What are you going to be researching Twi? The solar system?” Rainbow complained as she straightened her back and rubbed it, “if you hard brought anymore then I would have become the hunchback of Notre Dame.” “I am not going to be researching the solar system. I will just study the demigods to see ifI can find anything interesting with their dna. Speaking of which can I ask you a few questions?” Twilight as Percy and Annabeth as she exited the bathroom to see what the ruckus was about. “Hey Annie, I think you have a sister,” Percy told Annabeth. “Unfortunately I have to agree with you, I am pretty sure she is a child of Athena. Somehow I can just… feel it radiating off of her.” “That isn’t possible, I already have a mother and her name is Twilight Velvet,” Twilight said, causing Annabeth to look confusedly at her and then look at the others. “Do any of you 4 have a missing parent?” “Not me, both my Mom and Dad have been with me and my sisters since before I was born!” “My family is way to overbearing to miss anything in my life.” “Define missin’. ‘Cus ma parents have been dead for ‘bout 10 years now.” “I am so sorry Applejack, but Sunset what about your parents?” “My father has been missing ever since my little brother was born but I come from another world entirely...so I don’t think that really matters.” “You come from another world?! Can you fill us in please? And with details,” Annabeth got out a notebook and a pencil from Twilight’s bag. Yup, definitely sisters… Sunset thought as she started to tell her story as Annabeth started jotting down what she could. With the other 4 interjecting whenever they had something to correct or add. 4 Movie Recaps later.... “So there is a whole other world out there to explore? Filled with unicorns, pegasi, and other mythical beings? And they have magic? I don’t know how to process all of this information. It just- I can’t- I-” Annabeth then fainted yet again. “Geez, I didn’t know that Jason and Annabeth had so much in common…” Percy remarked from his position, “So there has been a mirror for a millenia that has connected our worlds?” “Yup, although it can only be accessed every 30 moons,” Sunset answered walking over to pick Annabeth up from where she was. Only for Twilight to pick her up with telekinesis when she saw Sunset struggling. “But is it still possible that Apollo could have went to your world, had a child with your mother and came back in that time when the Portal is open?” “It is possible but he would have had to have seduced her in that short amount of time in order to impregnate her. And I don’t think it is very possible for someone to do that.” “Trust me, it happens a lot more often than you think.” “I’ve heard, yeesh. People really should have carried pepper spray with them more often.” Percy barked out a laugh, “Yeah. I’m going to go see if I can wake Annabeth I’ll talk with you some more later.” Sunset watched as he walked away before going over to where her friends were sitting. She also looked outside and noticed that it was starting to get dark. Using the internal clock that she had she guessed it was about 8:17 “Hey Rainbow, sorry about this but can you go and get Rarity and Fluttershy real quick before the sun sets fully?” “Sure thing! I’ll be back in a jiffy! Just depends on how much luggage Rarity wants me to bring with her. Ugh,” Rainbow stood up and just as she was about to run out the door it opened and Fluttershy walked through. “Fluttershy? How did you get here?” Twilight asked as she stood up and gave her a hug. “Oh, um. I took a...taxi,” She replied, Sunset noticed that she her skin and eyes were a bit discolored and her hair was a bit more ragged. “Are you alright Fluttershy? You look a bit worse for wear,” Sunset asked, worried about her friend. She could even see something that looked a bit red in her mouth like it had started bleeding or something. “Oh! I’m just...a bit car sick. The taxi was going a bit too fast for me.” “A taxi going fast in New York? You must have gotten really lucky with the traffic Fluttershee,” Percy replied as he splashed some water on Annabeth’s face, waking her up. “Pffff. Wha-What? Where am I? What happened?” She then looked over to where to group was sitting and noticed Fluttershy, “Oh great another one. Or am I dreaming still?” “Nope! Your still wide awake!” Pinkie said as she stretched her eyelids wide and did a creepy smile. “One, Pinkie never do that again that is creepy as hell. And two, who are you and what mysterious power do you have?” Annabeth grimaced as she got up from her table, holding the back of her head. Fluttershy smiled sheepishly, “I don’t really have a mysterious power. The only thing I can do is speak to animals.” Annabeth leaned over to Percy, “So what do you think? Another daughter of Demeter?” “Yeah, I would say that. Except for the Moon shining over her head.” “Wait what?” Everyone looked over and saw that the Moon had at that moment drifted over a window and shined directly on Fluttershy, turning her hair silver. Percy said what everyone was thinking at that moment. “Welp, the tides are screwed.”
