Opening her eyes, Twilight sits up and yawns. She gets out of bed and remakes it, then takes care of Angle and three birds that were already in her room. She walks out of the room and over to the bathroom to wash her face to wake up. She looks in the mirror and shrugs, seeing a yellow coated, hornless Pegasus looking back. Her mane is longer than she remembers and is now pink along with the tail. "Good morning Twilight."
"Good morning Discord." Twilight says, though her voice is much higher in pitch than she remembers.
"Oh my, the side affects really work fast."
"What do you mean?" Twilight asks, putting away Bird food.
"Oh nothing. Where is Fluttershy?" A mare runs in the room. She is purple and has a short, purple mane and tail.
"Right here." Fluttershy says. She has a horn with wings, her coat is purple and her voice is different. "Twilight, we need to go."
"Where?"
"Canterlot. The train station is fixed and we must hurry, we don't have much time."
"Oh, well if you're sure I'd hate to argue."
"Wait a minute you two." Discord says. "Neither of you are allowed to seek the princesses help, it was part of our deal."
Fluttershy gets mad. "No it wasn't, and yes we are. No matter what you say you can not stop us from going to the princess. Come on Twilight." They head out of the house.
Discord smiles as the door closes. "Perfect."
...
They arrive at the train station looking around. There are ponies swarming the station and trying to get on the current train. Twilight and Fluttershy barley manage to squeeze in. "Why is it so busy here today?" Fluttershy asks.
"I don't know, but just take half-breathes and try to stay still."
"Ms. Sparkle? May I have your auto graph?" A filly asks.
"I'm not Twilight, I'm Fluttershy."
"But, isn't this you?" It holds up a photo of Twilight.
"Oh no. Oh no no no, Twilight, prepare for a confusing talk." They manage to last the entire ride to Canterlot. They get out of the train and head straight to the castle. "Princess!" Fluttershy yells, barging into the royal room.
"Ms. Shy, how nice of you to join us." Celestia walks out from a door in the front.
"Princess, what happened to us? Why are we different? So far all of our friends have told us that we aren't normal, what's happening to us?"
"Fluttershy, you must understand that spells created by StarSwirl the Bearded have to be tested every few millennia."
"Tested?" The floor turns black and white lines begin to connect.
"You see, Discord may be The Lord of chaos, but you are the element of magic. Magic isn't always reliable, we very well know that. But it is easy to manipulate and this little test of ours proves that. I had perpously made you mess up your spell in order to see if an old spell still works. Now although we have proved it does, I'm afraid that it has produced some extra side affects to go along with it." The floor stops and shows a picture of Twilight's and Fluttershy's cutie mark.
"But, why me? If you wanted to test the spell, couldn't you have done it on Discord?"
"Magic is inside of you Fluttershy, and although you are Fluttershy at the moment, I am really talking to Twilight. Magic will forever be who you are, it will forever be what makes you you and others them. I messed up your spell to prove this, to prove that magic is always unique, no matter who you are. And the element of magic is the best way to have others understand this." the floor goes back to normal.
"And what about me?" Twilight asks.
"Oh don't worry, you'll be fine. In a minute you will both be back to normal, my little experiment is done for now. But the reason I chose you two specifically is that out of the seven elements, kindness is the only one that truly goes with any other. Loyalty, magic, honesty, generosity, laughter, and... well, you'll see. But kindness will never put up a fight that isn't winnable unless friends are at stake. So I apologize for any trouble, but it was well worth it, trust me."
"So what now princess?"
"Now you must return to normal. If you don't then the world will plunge into absolute anarchy and rebellions and fights will begin, you need to get your old selves back."
"But how?" They both ask.
"Let me take care of that." Celestia's horn glows yellow and she rises into the air with a smile. Twilight and Fluttershy begin spinning around the room until they hit into eachother, being knocked out.
...
"Twilight!" Rainbow Dash and the others run up to her.
"Hey girls, what's going on?"
"We, we thought you were dead." Rarity stutters.
"Dead?"
"The news article, they said you were lost for four months, but you're back!" Applejack yells. Suddenly, they are lifted into the air and then disappear, leaving Twilight alone in the dark. A light appears below her and she falls into it.
"Perfect." Discord sits on the couch as Twilight and Fluttershy walk out. "They'll never suspect it, won't they be in shock when they learn?" He pats a cat until he turns into Rainbow Dash.
"Daring Do and the Griffon Overlord! Isn't that awesome?!" Rainbow yells.
"Uh, yeah! That is totally not scary or frightening in any way, it'll be great!" Fluttershy fakes a smile. She then falls through the ground, once again leaving Twikight in darkness.
"Woah, woah!" She starts falling. The more she falls, the brighter it gets. It goes all white then immediately to pitch black.
...
"Unity..."
