Twilight ran outside of Doc's. She couldn't believe what she saw the Jets do to Anita. What else could she do? Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie came for her, "Twilight! I can't believe you did that!" said a shocked Rainbow Dash.
"I know!" replied Pinkie Pie "I don't think I've ever seen you this mad in your life! Did you really have to call the Jets ****ing c***s?"
Twilight tried to explain, but she just couldn't find the words. They heard a voice, but it wasn't saying what it would normally say, "Chino! Come get me Chino!"
"Tony!" shouted Twilight "Over here!"
He was crying trying to find the words, "M-Maria's d-d-dead!" He busted out crying.
"Don't worry Tony, you'll be okay..." Twilight tried to comfort him, but that was only delaying the inevitable.
"Twilight, you're magical," Tony realized "Cast some sort of spell to see if Maria is really dead!"
She wanted to tell him Maria wasn't dead. She wanted to say she's perfectly fine and on her way right now. But she couldn't change the movie. "I'm sorry," she lied.
Tony screamed, "Where are you, Chino? Please, I'm begging you..." He turned around. Maria was walking down, with Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy. "Maria!" he called.
"Tony!" she called back. She started running to him. Tony ran as well. The ponies looked at each other in fear. Just as they were about to hug...
BOOM! Tony got hit and fell to the ground, in Maria's arms. "No!" Maria shouted "It's not fair!"
Twilight went up to his dying body. "I thought you said she was dead. Why did you lie to me Twilight?" Tony whimpered.
"I'm so sorry. I needed to make sure..." Twilight started. No, I can't say anything, she thought.
"He's dead!" Maria cried. She turned to Twilight, "He's dead because of you!"
"NO!!!" All of a sudden, Twilight was in the bedroom in the Jets' building. "Whew!" Twilight sighed. It was all a dream. But it was going to happen. There was only one thing she could do. She went to the room Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie were sleeping in. "Girls! Get the others and bring them to the portal. I'll explain when we are all together."
After everyone was at the portal, Twilight talked to them, "Girls, we have no reason to be here anymore. We meet the characters and had our fun. I think it's time to go back to Equestria.
"But what about the rumble?" asked Applejack "Rainbow Dash and I have to fight."
"Another good reason to go back home," Twilight explained "I had a dream where Tony got killed and I could have saved him. If we stayed when that happened, I would never forgive myself."
"Then let's save Tony and Maria!" Rainbow Dash said.
"And how are we going to do that?" questioned Fluttershy.
"We make sure Tony never finds out that Anita told the Jets Maria was dead and help them escape, like they wanted to do in the movie!"
"But we can't alter the movie! If we do, then we'll change it all together!" Rarity warned.
"What's the difference? The only ponies who are going to know it changed are us!" Rainbow Dash informed "Come on Twilight! Let's do it!"
"Yeah, come on Twilight!" the others pleaded.
Twilight sighed, "Alright, we'll do it. I'll live to regret this."
Pinkie Pie grabbed Twilight "So, what's the plan chief?"
"We'll keep doing what we have been doing, hanging with the characters, checking in on them, making sure everything goes according to the movie. Rainbow Dash and Applejack are going to fight in the rumble until Tony shows up and everything unfolds as it does. After that, we need to make sure two things happen: Chino gets sent away so Tony can't get shot, and Anita doesn't go inside Doc's and... yeah. Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash and I can take care of Anita, while the rest of you take care of Chino. After that, all there's left to do is at least help Tony and Maria cross the bridge by the river. They'll be safe after that."
Fluttershy asked, "Then what?"
"We go back to Equestria." Twilight explained.
"But what if something happens and we can't get to the portal?" questioned Applejack, worried and trembling.
Twilight sighed, "If we can't get to the portal, I'll just try and teleport us there. It probably won't be a problem."
"But... what about Riff?" asked Rainbow Dash, trying to hold back tears.
"We have to let him and Bernardo die." Twilight said "Tony and Maria's urge to leave was because of their deaths."
Rarity continued, "Twilight's right Rainbow! I'm sorry, but there is no other way we can make this happen, darling."
"So..." interrupted Twilight "Are we going to do this?"
"Yeah!" exclaimed Pinkie Pie "I know we can do it! Don't you worry Tony and Maria, we are going to help you!"
The others nodded in agreement. Rarity looked at the rising sun, "Oh no! We better get back to our respective gangs before they wake up!"
She, Applejack and Fluttershy ran toward the Sharks' apartment. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie were running back too, when Twilight called, "Girls! Wait! I think I'm going to spend the day with Tony. I'll just wait for him here when he comes to work. I'll meet you right before the rumble. If the Jets ask, tell them I'm touring the city."
"You got it Twilight! See you later! Come on Pinkie Pie!" They left. Twilight sat at the steps, trying to stay awake. She was so tired. The world was coming out of focus...
