Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend

by Shadowmane PX-41


An Audience With Princess Twilight

"This looks like the place." Human Silver said as soon as they came stopped in front of the tree shaped house.that was the Golden Oaks Library, " I just hope that it's not too late to get home."

Human Diamond knocked on the door a few times before a mare inside said, "Just a second!"

"Sounds like she really is busy." Human Diamond said as she waited at the door for an answer. After 10 seconds went by, the door opened revealing a purple coated alicorn with a pink stripe running through her plum coloured hair.

"Welcome to Golden Oaks." She began, eyes closed in pride as she led them in without even noticing their human appearance, "THE finest bookstore in Ponyville, second to none. What would you like to borrow to-"

"Hey, Twilight." Human Silver said as soon as Twilight finally opened her eyes. To this notion, the purple pony let out a deafening scream and started to fly up to the top floor.

"But how?" She asked the two humans, "The portal was sealed off for 30 moons. How did you get here?!"

"To be honest, i have no idea." Human Diamond began, "It just opened unexpectedly and here we are in Equestria. Now we're stuck here and Shining Armour sent us to find you to ask you on how to get us both back home."

"Wait, did you say, unexpectedly?" Twilight asked once she had calmed down a little and started making eye contact with the girls once more.

"Yep, i was just standing there, with my hand on the portal... and then BOOM! it opened, we fell threw it and here we are. Trapped in Equestria with no means of getting home."

"When we decided to look around the place, we were met with the pony versions of Shining Armour and Mrs Cadence." Human Silver picked up, "Shining Armour said that the only way to get home was that we ask you for advice on how to force the portal open again."

"Well you see that's kind of the problem." Twilight said with a dash of concern starting to creep in onto her face, "The portal only opens every 30 moons and is only open for three days before sealing itself again for another 30 moons. To you that means 2 and a half years no doubt. And so far, there's been no record of any magic powerful enough to force the portal open again. And even if some magic was to force it open again, it might not be for enough time and it could close if you try to step through it."

"You're saying we're stuck here for two and a half years?!" Human Diamond grimaced at the thought.

"I'm afraid so, girls." Twilight said after hanging her head in a little shame, "I've read every book in this library more than thrice and i haven't been able to find a strong enough spell to force the portal open again. Sorry if that worries you."

"Maybe your books aren't the only source of new spells for you to master, but i bet there are other books in this world that have the knowledge you need." Human Silver said once the idea came to mind.

"Twilight, are you gonna be much longer down there?" A voice said from the top floor that sounded vaguely familiar.

"Hang on a minute, i know that voice." Human Diamond said once she picked up the quote that was flung from the higher floor, "Spike? Is that you up there?"

"Twilight, you didn't tell me you had customers." Spike said as soon as he started walking downstairs, "You should always inform me if you have any business so that we can work together like a pony and an assist-"

"Hey, Spike." The two girls said in unison once they got a good glimpse of him.

"AAAAHHH!!!" Spike screamed as he bolted back up to the top of the stairs and decided to hide behind the post at the end of the handrail, "Twilight, what are two humans doing in Equestria?"

"Trust me, Spike, it's a VERY long story." She said as she levitated him onto her back with her magical aura.

"So, these are your true forms?" Human Silver said first once Spike had calmed down.

"Yeah, we were both born and raised on Equestria." Twilight began, "But by different families as you would say."

"Twilight was lucky enough to hatch me with a magical surge." Spike started, "I dedicated myself to her work ever since."

"So wait a minute." Human Diamond began, "If these are your real bodies, then how did you manage to get transformed into a human girl with her pet dog during your time at Canterlot High?"

"Seriously, i have no idea how that happened either." She responded, "And let me tell you, hands and two legs, are NOT my style in the slightest."

"But wait, if you came to our world as a shape-shifted human, why did we arrive in Equestria still as humans?" Human Silver asked.

"No idea, which is interesting because once i got back home, i became a pony again." Twilight stated, "And trust me, you would not have liked to be ponies in this world. Let's just say your pony counterparts have a reputation for causing trouble."

"Yeah, we know." Human Diamond started to speak, "We met them before we met you."

"Speaking of which, where are Pony Us right now?" Human Silver asked

Suddenly, they heard a massive crashing noise outside and heard someponies were screaming and running in panic.

"What in the name of Celestia is going on around here?" Twilight said once she opened the door and ran outside with the two humans.

"I knew we'd find you two here!" Pony Diamond said once her eyes met that of her real human counterpart.

"You've got to be kidding me." Was the only sentence that tumbled out of Human Diamond's mouth once she noticed that the two ponies were now human like them.
