Bonnie and Lyde

"Lyra, where is all of our savings?" Bon-Bon called out, her voice echoing through the empty safe hidden in the wall.

KRACKAPOW!

"Oh not again." She facehooved, making her way toward the basement door. "Lyra, are you down here?" She said through the cloud of smoke.

"Yeah, I'm down here..." Came the nervous reply.

"Where is all of our savings? You know, the money we use to pay the bills and buy food?"

"Um, based on the size of that explosion, I'd guess the 53rd dimension by now." Lyra said, coming up the stairs. She was unscathed, except for a thick layer of soot covering her face. "Maybe the 54th, I'll need to crunch some numbers and-"

"LYRA! What did I tell you about interdimensional wormholes?"

"Not to open them up in the basement?"

"And what was that?"

"Me opening up a wormhole in the basement?" Lyra replied sheepishly. "But on the bright side there were no humans this time." She grinned. Bon-Bon felt a rush of relief come over her.

"Well that's a relief."

"I opened up another pony dimension, and I found our doubles!"

"oh no." Bon-Bon muttered under her breath."

"Please tell me you left them in that dimension."

"Not exactly."

"Hey Bonnie, have you seen my fedora?" A voice called from the basement.

"What, do I have to do everything for you, Lyde?" Came another voice. "Ugh, nevermind. Let's just get out of this basement."

Bon-Bon looked to Lyra with a mixture of anger and horror. Lyra shrugged and looked down the steps, where two eerily similar ponies were ascending the stairs.

"Hiya, doll. Name's Bonnie, and this here's Lyde. We really outta thank your gal over there for busting us out of a sticky situation." The leather jacket clad Bonnie said to Bon-Bon. "See, we was just -ehem- making a withdrawal from the bank when the cops showed up." She looked to the Lyra double. "Lyde, say something to our gracious hosts, ya big galoopa."

"Have you seen my fedora anywhere?" Lyde responded. Bonnie facehoofed.

"You gotta excuse her, she's a bit slow at times, but I love her anyway. Now what's this I here about your life savings being sent to Celestia knows where?"

"You heard that?"

"Yup, and I think we can help ya, all ya gotta do is show us to the nearest bank, think of it as us returning the favor.

"The nearest bank is First Ponyville, head down the street and take a left." Bon-Bon replied without hesitation, not even caring anymore.

"Thanks, doll. We'll be back in a bit." Bonnie winked.
