On a beautiful afternoon, the eight turtles, the Rainbooms, their allies, and Jones were at the city skate park. The turtles were all decked out in disguises to look like regular people along with Fugitoid.
Both Mikey's and Rainbow Dash were busy skating on a halfpipe, while the others watched.
“Oh, yeah, that's the stuff!” Mikey cheered, as he and his counterpart high fived when they crossed paths.
“Awesome!” Rainbow cheered, as she showed off some moves.
“Coming out here was such a good idea.” Leo admitted.
“Especially after the training we did this morning.” Applejack added.
“We do come up here plenty of times to relax and have fun when we need it.” Leonardo noted.
“Especially if there's something fun or once in a lifetime happening.” Donatello added.
“Still not exactly sure about the disguises,” Raph said skeptically, “But if it helps us walk about with the people I ain't complaining.”
Leo nodded, and spoke to their counterparts, “I once thought after we defeated pretty much all our major enemies the city didn't need us anymore and that sticking to the shadows was no longer needed. But with all the newer stuff happening with us in New York or even being called to help the Rainbooms I realize we're still needed, but while we can stick to the shadows at night, we can walk by day while in disguise.”
“That's adapting to new tactics.” Donnie put in.
The two Mikey's and Rainbow boarded over, “The skate parks in this world are so cool!” Rainbow cheered.
“Mondo would sure love this place.” Mikey put in.
“Hey, guys!” came a voice.
The group looked over and saw a fourteen year old girl approach. She had purple-dyed hair styled in pigtails, with piercings on the left eyebrow, lower lip and ears. Her attire included a sleeveless, greenish-blue hoodie, red baggy jeans, light purple bands with two starting from the wrist and stopping just below the elbow, and the other two above the purple metal studded elbow pads, two black spiky bracelets, purple studded biker gloves, and buckle shoes with greenish-blue socks in them.
“Hey, Angel.” Jones greeted.
“Angel?” The Rainbooms asked.
The girl known as Angel looked around, “So these are the alternate turtles and their friends from another dimension?”
“Huh?” the turtles asked in shock.
“Don't worry, guys. She's a friend.” Leonardo confirmed.
“Dis is Angel. I know her from de neighbawhhood.” Jones explained.
“Nice to meetcha.” Angel greeted.
“Angel, you can already tell the guys apart,” Jones continued, “These girls are the Rainbooms. Dis is Twilight Sparkle, Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, and Rarity.
“Hiya!” Pinkie waved.
“Den dere's de Pruhvessawh, Princess Twilight, Starlight Glimmuh, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, Spike, and well, Spike.”
“Hey.” the two dogs greeted.
“Awesome. You two really can talk.” Angel said, as she scratched behind their ears.
“And of course there's Karai, Shini, Keno, April's counterpart, and this dude here is my counterpart.” Jones held Casey close.
Angel got a good look at Casey, “This is supposed to be you from another universe?”
“Dat's right.” Jones confirmed.
“I can kinda see the resemblance,” Angel admitted, “And he's actually a lot cuter than you, even with missing teeth.” she grinned.
“Hey!” Jones protested, as Casey felt flustered.
“Well, nice to get some appreciation from time to time.” the teen boy said.
Angel turned to Princess Twilight and Starlight, “So you two are from some universe where there are no people, but ponies?”
“That's right.” Princess Twilight confirmed.
“Strange we know. But that's Equestria.” Starlight added.
“Sounds like quite a place.” Angel said.
“You have no idea.” Spike replied.
Raph spoke to Angel, “So how do you know our counterparts and their Casey?”
Leonardo answered, “We actually met her not long after we met our Casey.”
“We found out she was getting involved with the Purple Dragons here back when they were just a regular street gang.” Donatello explained.
Karai turned to the girl, “You were running with the Purple Dragons?”
“Why?” April asked in confusion.
Angel sighed, “I was tired of living middle class life so I tried finding cooler people on the street. I ended up getting involved with the Dragons for a bit, until Casey caught me trying to steal for them. I didn't heed his warning about quitting while I had the chance and left him.”
Jones continued, “I trailed her back to the Dragons hideout to stop her, but ended up getting captured by Hun. Angel came to try and help me, but I sent her to get the guys.”
“Angel took us to the Purple Dragons hideout, where we freed Casey and busted some Dragon heads.” Raphael finished.
“We've been tight ever since.” Angel added.
Casey and Keno were surprised, before looking at each other, “Keno, you getting that...”
“Deja vu feeling? Yes I am.” Keno confirmed.
“What do you mean?” Michelangelo asked.
“When we were in Equestria, we were called by the map in Princess Twi's castle to solve a friendship problem.”
“Friendship problem?” Angel asked.
“Indeed,” Fugitoid confirmed, “In Princess Twilight's castle in Ponyville exists a magical map of all Equestria and even beyond. It has the power to sense where a problem is among friends or others, and selects the ponies best suited to help fix and solve it.”
“Wow,” Michelangelo gasped, “Imagine if we had a map like that. It would make helping others so much easier.”
Keno continued, “The mission for me and Casey took us to Equestria's counterpart of Manhattan called 'Manehattan'.”
“Manehattan?” Angel held in a laugh.
Casey nodded, and resumed, “We found out Apple Bloom's pony counterpart's cousin Babs Seed was starting to run with this pony gang called the Purple Nightmares; Equestria's version of the Dragons. It was the first time we met Night Terror, their leader. We had to convince her to ditch the Nightmares and come home.”
“We succeeded, and busted up the Nightmares, save for a few members who would end up joining forces with worse baddies in Equestria.” Keno finished.
“Dat's some coincidence.” Jones said in disbelief.
Angel glanced at the CMC and spoke, “Say, mind if I take Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle back to my place? My grandma said I should really bring friends around more often.”
“Hey, that sounds like fun.” Apple Bloom said excitedly.
“Can we go with, can we?” Sweetie Belle pleaded with Rarity.
“We'll be good.” Scootaloo promised.
Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow pondered, until A.J answered, “Well, we don't see why not.”
“Yes!” the trio cheered.
“Just as long as you stay with Angel and not wander off.” Rarity told them.
“We promise.” they said.
“I'll even swing by later to pick ya up before it gets too late.” Jones offered.
“Thanks, Casey. Come on, girls.” Angel showed the trio off.
“It is nice to see them making friends close to their ages.” Rainbow told her friends.
“Especially if it's someone we can trust.” Leo added, as the other agreed.
Some time later, at Angel's place, the four girls were lounging about in Angel's room relaxing, while enjoying sodas.
“So you call yourselves the Canterlot Movie Club?” Angel asked.
“That's right. We love to see movies and like to use knowledge and tactics from them in real life scenarios.” Scootaloo said.
“We even used movie knowledge to set a trap for Raphael while he was training us.” Apple Bloom explained.
“You guys trapped Raph?” Angel laughed.
“We sure did.” Sweetie Belle confirmed.
“Wish I could've seen that.” the punk girl said.
“Anyway this is a nice family ya got here,” Apple Bloom said, “So it's just your brother and grandma?”
“That's right.”
“I'm sort of like that too. I have my sis and my big brother along with mah granny.”
“Neat. You know if it weren't for the turtles, I could've lost my brother.” Angel replied.
“How?” Scootaloo asked.
Angel sighed, “Well, my brother Ryan was working as a construction worker at this mansion and found some gold there. He wanted to go back to find more, but I had a feeling it was a bad idea. Unfortunately he dismissed my warning and went anyway. He hadn't come home for a few days and the cops just gave up. So I went to the turtles for their help. We found out the mansion was home to some monster who controlled these zombie warriors and was holding my brother captive. They rescued him thankfully.”
“That was lucky.” Sweetie Belle said.
“Yeah. If anything happened to my bro I don't know what I'd do.”
“I feel the same about Applejack.” Apple Bloom admitted.
“Same with me and Rarity.” Sweetie Belle added.
“I'd do anything to help Rainbow Dash.” Scootaloo finished.
Angel smiled, “You girls really care about your friends huh?”
“We do.” Sweetie Belle confirmed.
“Of course there was a time, we let jealousy get the best of us and we did something terrible.” Scootaloo said.
“What was that?”
Apple Bloom started, “Well, back when Sunset Shimmer just started becoming friends with our sisters and everyone at school, we started feeling jealous our sisters were spending more time with her than any of us.”
“Especially since Sunset used to rule CHS with an Iron Fist.” Scootaloo added.
Sweetie Belle continued, “We started this account called Anon-a-Miss. When the girls fell asleep we downloaded these pictures and videos off Sunset's phone of some embarrassing moments and such. And started posting them. Soon enough others started sending their own pictures and secrets to our page and we posted them. This ended up causing everyone to blame Sunset Shimmer and turn their backs on her.”
“It got even worse when secrets of the other students were being sent to us and we posted them,” Apple Bloom said, “We realized we went too far and confessed to Sunset and the girls.”
“Sunset told us she sympathized with us about feeling left out and forgave us.” Sweetie Belle said.
“But we still got six months of detention and the secrets we posted would never go away.” Scootaloo added.
“But in time everything eventually went back to normal, and we vowed never to do that again.” Apple Bloom said.
“Whoa, that sounds terrible.” Angel gasped.
“It was.” the trio confirmed together.
“But at least you learned your lesson just like I did when I tried joining the Dragons.” Angel sighed.
The Crusaders laid their hands on Angel's shoulders comforting her, “Gals like us really have a lot to deal with.” Apple Bloom said.
“No kidding.” Angel chuckled.
“You're alright, Angel.” Scootaloo said.
“Thanks. You girls are too.” Angel said, as she held the three close and they laughed.
As it got late, Jones was on his way to pick the CMC up and bring them back to their lair. When he learned from Angel's grandma they were up on the roof, the adult vigilante went up.
What he saw when he arrived was Angel sparing with each of the CMC on one on, with all four of them having fun.
“You girls really are good.” Angel admitted.
“Thanks. We've been taking lessons.” Apple Bloom replied.
“Dat dey have.” Jones confirmed, as he got their attention, “Looks like ya really getting' along well.”
“We sure are.” Sweetie Belle confirmed.
“I like these girls. They got moxie.” Angel said.
“Well, we gotta get dem back to the lair right now.” Jones said, as the CMC groaned.
“Don't worry, girls. I'm sure we'll hang out again soon.” Angel promised.
“Thanks.” Sweetie Belle said.
“And consider yourself an honorary member of the Canterlot Movie Club.” Apple Bloom put in.
“Awesome.” Angel smiled, as the four hugged.
So Jones took the CMC back to the lair, with the trio and Angel feeling good they each made a new friend or in Angel's case 'friends'.
