Twilight pulls up the garage door of her house as she and her friends stepped in. It was another fun weekend after school and it's already midnight. And they are having a game night, and how are they gonna do that? Is by playing another game of Among Us in Twilight's simulator.
Twilight activates the simulator while the girls get settled in the seats and put their helmets so they'll be inside the simulator. But before they get into it, Twilight has something to say first.
"Oh, I also want you guys to know is that we'll be playing on a different map," Twilight announced. "Plus, there will be two imposters we'll facing with. Equestria Land is a perfect choice, for now."
"Then let's get on with it!" Rainbow declared.
"10 crewmates against 2 imposters," Sunset added. "Now this may seem like it's about to get really challenging."
So then, all the girls were ready, Spike volunteered to pressed the red button. And the visions from the girls' point of view went black as the simulator started.
There are 2 Imposters Among Us
The girls found themselves in Equestria Land along with three other crewmates, Orange, Black, and Brown. It felt like it had been ages since the last time they're in Equestria Land but only in a simulator as one of the locations Twilight chose for some other reasons.
"Okay," Twilight hands out papers with a list of tasks written on them to her friends. "Here's some tasks, get them done and be careful with the imposters! Their only two!"
"Still easy, we can win this!" Rainbow bragged and took off.
The girls scattered around Equestria Land, Sunset went to her task only to find it was the same rigged game hoisted by the Flim Flam brothers.
"Really Twilight?" Sunset asked, narrowing her eyes. "This again?"
Rainbow Dash was around the area, desperately looking for her medbay scan. In which she had no idea where it is since she's in Equestria Land.
"Where the heck is the medbay scan???" Rainbow wondered, "I had the map but it didn't show the locations of these tasks. Twilight, you need to fix this next time."
Orange and Black had finished their download task in the office, and at the same time, Applejack entered the office.
"Oh, didn't see you two there," She said, and two crewmates never said anything but just went on their way to their next tasks. "Umm... Okay... see ya both later ah' guess." But before she had a chance to do her task, someone has sabotage Coms. "Someone needs to fixed Coms so ah' can go on with this task!" Applejack said out loud.
Twilight, who chooses this map in the first place, knows where Coms was. It was in Vignette's office inside the hanger, she went inside and fixed Coms so all tasks are available once more.
"That should do it," Twilight said.
Just then, Rarity came into the room and sees Twilight coming out of the office, "Oh, Twilight!" Rarity said pleased seeing her friend, "I was surprised to see you here. You also have a task here?"
Twilight nodded. "I just fixed Coms," she replied. "Do you also have tasks here?"
"Oh, sure but I've been thinking about playing the Detective," She said. "I liked playing detective in Among Us because this might be the way to catch the imposters."
"I also have second thoughts about that suggestion but okay! Count me in!" Twilight volunteered.
"Splendid!" Rarity exclaimed. "Let's play the two Detectives and find the imposters!"
So the two went out together, acting as a duo of super-agents finding the imposters. Meanwhile, Sunset was still struggling with this task, throwing hoops into the targets, only to end up either missed or it bounces off. This frustrates her even more like the last time they were here in real life, makes her want to kill Twilight if she's the imposter. Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie passed by seeing Sunset being a noob to this task. Really, don't call her a noob.
"Oh, hey Sunset!" Pinkie greeted her. "Struggling a task I see."
Sunset sighs in frustration, "Yeah," She replied sharply. "Why did Twilight choose this as a task? How may I supposed to ace this, unlike last time we were all here in real life?"
"Maybe it's a glitch?" Fluttershy asked. "Online games do have glitches sometimes. Especially Among Us and this simulator."
"I don't see the problem with this task!" Pinkie claimed. "If you take too long with the same task, you'll be deemed as sus!"
"I'm trying! This task is too hard!" Sunset replied back.
"Then try harder, Silly!" Pinkie told her.
Dead Body Reported!
Discussed!
The girls were gathered at the eating area, with the exception of Brown. And it was Applejack who reported the body.
"Body's insecurity," Applejack clarified. "And no, ah' don't see anything suspicious."
Then Rarity started to make an announcement, "Darlings, just so you all know, I and Twilight had planned to play as detectives to find out who the imposter is."
"We both may be like 40 IQ with this," Twilight replied. "But I do know for sure that Rarity and I will find the imposters and serve some justice!"
"But what if both ya'll are the imposters?" Applejack asked them in suspicious.
"Oh don't jump to the conclusion, darling," Rarity told her. "We both have a medbay scan. It's right here on the map."
"Umm, yeah, about that, I do have a complain I need to report," Rainbow chimed in. "This freaking map didn't even show the locations of these tasks!"
Confused by this, the rest checked their maps and they see the tasks' locations in it, proving Rainbow's argument was invalid.
"But I do see them in my map," Sunset said, pointing at her map.
"Same here," Fluttershy added.
"But I can't even see their locations on my map!" Rainbow argued.
"What if you've been glitched and that's it?" Twilight asked her.
"Well, If I'm glitched then there's something with this simulator," Rainbow told her. "And you gotta fix it."
"I'll keep a mind on that one," Twilight said. "Now, let's skip vote and follow me and Rarity to the medbay scan. We both can prove to all of you that we're both legit."
So the rest skip vote except for Rainbow Dash, who just pressed the button but it didn't skip the voting. Realizing she's been glitch alright and rapidly pressing the button but nothing happened, "Guys, I can't vote! I can't vote!"
Meanwhile, the girls followed Twilight and Rarity to the medbay scan, which is in the infirmary. Equestria Land doesn't have one in real life but in Twilight's simulator, it does. So Rarity goes first and she's cleared, Twilight took her turn and she's also cleared.
"Looks like both of you are good," Sunset said.
"But wait!" Rainbow stopped. "I also have the scan, so it's my turn!" She steps in and takes her scan, as the scan ended, Rainbow Dash steps out but the scan still does its thing, realizing that being glitched is what caused it.
"You're really are glitched, Rainbow Dash," Sunset told her.
Rainbow shrugged, "As long as I have proven myself innocent, I don't seem to care." And then she was caught surprised when she sees Black's dead body right in front of them. "That's a dead body!"
The group was back in the eating area after Rainbow reported the body.
"Okay, playing a game with two imposters is a tough business," Applejack said. "And Rarity was way too close to him but she scanned, so it can't be her."
Pinkie thinks hard about who could it be until it came to her. "Oh! It could be Sunset!"
"What?!" Sunset cried in shock.
"Yeah! You were taking so long with that task, so that's sus!" Pinkie clarified.
"I already told you, that task was that rigged game hoisted by the Flim Flam brothers, and I and Twilight were struggling so hard!" Sunset reminded them.
"Says the person with a Price on her head at some places in Equestria," Rainbow reminded her.
Sunset sighs at that callback. Less than two weeks since she paid off a bunch of bounty hunters just to show how sincere she was, but she realized that she needs to do more than that so it means her bounty was not lifted yet. She and Princess Twilight were still thinking about how Sunset can right her wrongs to the ponies she hurt while she still had a huge price on her head and without getting yelled at by the bounty hunters once she stepped hoof to the areas where she's wanted.
"Good feedback but that's not the point," Sunset responded. "I was the imposter the last time we were in this simulator. And don't forget that you don't always get to be the imposter each and every round."
"Hmm, I guess I have to believe you, darling," Rarity answered.
"Same here, ah guess..." Applejack reluctantly agreed.
So the girls skipped the vote, (except Rainbow Dash because of the glitch) so they went on their way to their tasks.
Twilight and Rarity were walking together through the map, finishing some tasks and walk around, inspecting something suspicious as they walk and look around them, being aware of the imposters.
"So you who do you think the imposters might be?" Twilight asked her.
"I'm not quite sure, " Rarity replied. "But what I do know is that they must have left some evidence on their tracks. But we need to be more cautious now that the imposters know we're playing the detectives."
"Okay," Twilight nodded. "Let's try security. Equestria Land has one in real life, especially here."
"Let's do it," Rarity declared.
They went inside the security and check on the screens through the security cameras. There's one with Sunset going to the restroom for her next task, Applejack and Orange were fixing the wires in the generator room, Pinkie Pie doing her downloading task in the office.
"This is perfect," Twilight admitted. "If we do this, we'll catch whoever the imposters are, just like last time when Rainbow Dash caught Sunset venting out through the eyes of the cameras."
"Those sneaky imposters think they can get away with what they did?" Rarity boasted. "Not a chance! A duo of super-agents has eyes on all of them with no means of escaping!"
"You do realize that there's a vent in this room?" Twilight reminded her. "So we still need to be cautious wherever we are."
"Right behind you, darling,"
But before they begin, someone sabotages Coms, again.
"Someone has sabotage Coms," Twilight confirmed.
"Well, at least someone should fix it."
Rainbow Dash went to the office as she believes where the Coms might be, she entered the room and only to see Fluttershy and Pinkie not fixing it.
"Aren't you guys fixing it?" Rainbow asked them.
They shook their heads and Fluttershy said, "We don't know how."
"Oh," Rainbow muttered. "Nah, me neither."
4 minutes later, and no one has fix Coms yet. Rarity is getting impatient as she let out a small "Hmph!" while Twilight waited patiently for the Coms to be fixed so everything will be functional again. Not wanting to wait anymore, Rarity stomped out of the security with Twilight following close behind her. They made it to the office and surprise, surprise, they found everyone in it without even fixing the Coms.
"Let me guess, you all don't know how to fix this?" Rarity asked them.
The rest nodded, much to a bit of Twilight's frustration, and fix the Coms herself and everything was back on.
"There," She finished. "Now let's stop wasting our time and let's get back to it."
A few moments later, Twilight and Rarity were back in security, still found nothing suspicious, Rarity let a yawn and turned to Twilight.
"Maybe we should go around and check?" Rarity suggested. "I believe the imposters are too clever to be out of the sight of these cameras."
Twilight sighs, knowing she's right. "Okay, let's get out of here."
But before they leave, someone had reported another dead body.
Dead Body Reported!
Discussed!
"Where is the body this time?" Fluttershy asked Rainbow Dash.
"Sunset's body is in the restrooms," Rainbow reported, then turned to her two friends. "You two are detectives, did you two find anything?"
"Well..." Twilight began. "We spent our time at security, and sadly, we found nothing sus..."
"Did ya found anything like anyone following Sunset?" Applejack asked them.
"Sadly darling, no," Rarity replied.
Rainbow facepalm in frustration, "No offense but you guys are the worst detectives."
"Oh, give a lady a break, Rainbow Dash, we're doing our best here," Rarity protested.
"We may not have any evidence yet, but we will find them," Twilight assured them.
Fluttershy realized something and told them, "Do you two realize that you both just gave away of you two being the detectives and the imposters already know and they'll kill you both?"
Rarity scoffed. "Oh pish posh, nothing can stop both of us the duo of super-agents!"
"A duo of super-agents that can't even solve three straight murders and didn't even find any evidence," Rainbow sarcastically remarks.
"Oh, give us a break Rainbow Dash," Twilight complained. "She told us we can take control of this situation.
"And what about yer' tasks?" Applejack asked them.
"We still do tasks but not always," Twilight replied. "Trust us, this might be the way to find and catch the imposters."
"If ya' say so..."
They skipped vote except for Rainbow Dash, again, because of the glitch.
Meanwhile, Twilight had just finished doing wires at three areas around Equestria Land while Rarity was investigating some other areas and especially checking on her friends to see if anything was suspicious about them. Unfortunately, no luck so she had to regroup with Twilight.
"Found anything?" she asked Rarity.
"Certainly not, darling," Rarity shook her head.
Twilight put a hand on her chin, thinking of what their new strategy should be. "I was thinking maybe we should check elsewhere, like," she snapped her fingers at that sudden idea. "We can try Admin! I totally forgot I didn't put Admin at CHS but here, there is!"
"Oh, good idea!" Rarity agreed. "How do I not think of such a solution?!"
"Alright, let's go. Admin is in that very same random white room where Vignette trapped us," Twilight informed.
"Then, what are we waiting for? We got nothing to lose! Though, that doesn't surprise me why you choose that room as a location for Admin."
So they went to the random white room as Admin, according to its location on their map, they went inside only to find this random white room is filled with some tweaks, like vitals, Swipe Card task and also the Admin ability where you use to view the locations of the crewmates and imposters. Rainbow Dash has beaten them to it despite the fact of being glitched.
"Oh, it's you guys," Rainbow said, as she saw them entering the room.
"Do you have a task here?" Twilight asked her.
"Duh, I also decide to do my own detective job since you two were terrible at it," she replied. "No offense."
"None was taken," Rarity replied as she and Twilight joined Rainbow to check on the Admin ability. "Did you find anything out of the ordinary?"
"Like anyone vented?" Twilight added.
She shook her head, "Nah, didn't see anyone vent if my eyesight doesn't deceive me."
After a few minutes, they saw a crewmate icon on the map who vented from the office and to near the restrooms.
"Somebody vented!" Rainbow exclaimed.
"We can see that clearly, Rainbow Dash," Rarity told her. "But who could it be?"
"This is not enough," Twilight said. "We still need a solid proof to know who the imposter is, and if another person is dead, then that makes it like 4 of us crewmates left alive, and if another person got killed, then it's 3 of our crewmates,"
"And if one more crewmate is dead," Rainbow added. "then it's game over for the crewmates and victory for the imposters."
"Then we need to act fast!" Rarity urged.
But before they act now, somebody has shut the door closed, locking them in. "Someone has locked the door!" Rainbow cried, then the lights went off. "And the lights!"
"O-okay," Twilight stammered a bit. "Let's just calm down, keep our heads cool. Somebody has got to fix the lights soon."
"Oh, certainly," Rarity agreed. "Ain't that right, Rainbow Dash?" But Rainbow didn't say anything and the room is so dark that they clearly can't see anything. "Rainbow Dash?"
As soon as the lights went on again, they gasp when Rainbow's dead body was right in front of them and Twilight reported the body.
"Rainbow got killed while the lights were off and we were with her in Admin," Twilight confirmed.
"And Pinkie Pie is also dead too," Fluttershy added.
"Oh, and about that," Applejack chimed in, laying an eye on her. "Ah' just saw Fluttershy vented out as soon as the lights went on."
"What?!" Fluttershy cried, not wanting to get caught red-handed.
"Don't lie to me," Applejack said sternly. "Ah' saw you vented out! Ya' musta killed the other 4, sabotage Coms, shut off the lights, so it's you!"
"Your lying!" Fluttershy defended.
"Ah would never tell a lie!" Applejack protested. "Especially in this simulator! We gotta vote her off so we can win!"
Fortunately, her evidence seems clear to them, so agree to vote off Fluttershy.
Fluttershy was the Imposter
"Now we got one imposter," Rarity recap. "There's still one more imposter needed to be dealt with."
"We still don't know who it is, but I have a feeling that we're getting close to finding that out," Twilight added.
"Be careful ya'll!" Applejack warned them both.
So, Rarity and Twilight were walking together through the park. Still thinking of who the imposter might be now.
"So, who else you think might be the imposter, Rarity?" she asked
Rarity replied, "Clearly, it's not Orange, since your the one who created him, Black and Brown in your simulator, and Applejack? I'm not quite so sure."
"But she did give a solid hard evidence," she reminded her.
"That was it, but she might have also been the imposter this entire time," Rarity claimed.
"What are you on about?"
"Think of it this way," Rarity explained. "As an imposter, you can also rat out on your own comrade for your own means. So I suggested that Applejack might also be the imposter and decided to snitch on Fluttershy, who is also an imposter alongside her."
"Wow, I never thought as an imposter, you could rat out your own partner," Twilight said.
"Yes," she nodded, then her demeanor changed into more of an evil grin. "For their own means actually," suddenly, she grabbed her gun and shot Twilight on the stomach, causing her to scream in pain and painfully kneel down while holding her wound. She was wheezing and shock at the same time, she looked up to Rarity and couldn't believe it.
"H-how?" She spoke... "Y-you medbay scan... how did you?"
"Sorry it had to be this way, darling," she told her. "But a lady is no pushover," she headshot Twilight, thus killing her. And then she quickly reported the body.
The trio was reunited at the eating area, Rarity slammed her hands down the table and glared at Orange.
"It was Orange," she quickly confirmed. "He or she or whatever gender that thing is, killed my beloved Twilight!" she added her famous dramatic voice at the end of that sentence.
"Is that so?" Applejack asked, eyeing at the orange crewmate.
"You!" Rarity pointed at the crewmate, her voice still sounded dramatic. "Twilight created you and your other crewmates and yet, you betrayed them and betrayed your own creator of this simulator!" She votes on Orange. "I made my vote! Applejack, what about you?"
Applejack thinks about it for a moment, she just lost her sights with Orange as soon as the next round begins. So, if it's not her, nor Rarity, then it's definitely Orange, so she pressed the button to voted Orange off.

But she just a big mistake....
The girls opened their eyes as the simulator ended and could not believe what just happened. Rarity was the imposter all along but she medbay scanned. How?
"I don't believe it..." Sunset muttered as she and the rest stood up and remove their helmets.
"Rarity was the imposter all along and ah' can't believe ah' fell for it!" Applejack complained.
"But you did your medbay scan!" Rainbow reminded her. "How did you scan if you're the imposter????"
"Well," Rarity started to explain. "It's because of the glitch, that's what. I founded it out before an emergency meeting is called, which got me thinking if I'm glitched, does that mean if I can medbay scan even if I am the imposter? It turns out I was right, and I used it as an advantage to hide my identity. But I am certain that you all have fun."
Despite how good Rarity played them all, they come to agree that another game of Among Us Simulator really is fun, except for Rainbow Dash, because of the stupid glitch.
"She only won is because of that darn glitch!" She accused her, pointing at her with a finger.
"Well, if you don't see it as fair play, then I suggest we should do this again next time," she suggested. "But this time, no glitch."
"It better be," Rainbow replied and turned to the egghead. "Twilight, please fix some problems of your simulator before we had another fun, please?"
"I'll fix it some other time but, we should just spend the rest of our sleepover with the reality,"
"Twilight's right," Sunset added. "The night is still young, so who wants to watch a movie?"
The others agreed at that suggestion, so went inside the house with Twilight being the last one to enter after she turned off the lights of her garage.
