//------------------------------// // Miss Sparkle: 6 (Friendship Games Movie) // Story: A Twilight Summit // by Ponyess //------------------------------// Of course, this is kind of a silly to embarrassing moment. I am looking for a Twilight, only the girl. I wanted her to help me finding a book. “Twilight, Twilight, could you help me find a book?” she exclaimed, hoping the girl was within earshot. “Yes, I am Twilight Sparkle. What could I help you with?” I responded, tapping my back with her right hand. “Wait, what did you do with your mane, or hair? I did not recall you had it styled like this, yesterday!” the Pony respond, as she turned around to see me. “I may be a bit confused, but I know I haven’t changed my hair since yesterday. Oh, and what is that about mane style?” I responded. “Confused? Oh yeah, you are the other Twilight Sparkle, right? You attended Crystal Prep? I guess that could explain it!” she responded. “That is where I used to go to school. Are you the other Twilight Sparkle, then?” I inquired in order to get my bearing on the situation. “Princess Twilight Sparkle, the Alicorn. This is where I live. I take it you are familiar with books, being a Sparkle and all. Just too bad you never got to know Princess Celestia the way I did. If you truly do want to learn and understand, I am the guide you have been looking for. Although it would be nice if you could help me along with my research and studies too!” she politely informed me. “So you are a Princess here? With your very own castle, library and librarian? Books, yes. In books you can trust, you know. Maybe we have more in common than I could have expected? You do know me better than that, of course. You just look a bit young to be my teacher, something I will have to get used to here. Princess Celestia, as opposed to Principal Celestia? That sounds like the best offer I have had since I enlisted at Crystal Prep!” I pointed out. “I guess you could say that I got the crown as a graduation gift. I was Princess Celestia’s personal Prodigy back then, and enjoyed every moment of it. There is just one tragic memory, even among all the challenges; as hard as some of them were back at the time. That is how I met and befriended the girls at Canterlot High, they are just like the friends I made here in Ponyville on my first assignment. I had to retrieve my crown from her former prodigy at the school. They may be the same, but they are quite different too. Sunset Shimmer learned friendship from my friends at Canterlot High. From what I can follow, Cadance wasn’t the one actually pulling the strings, the Lady behind her wasn’t quite as nice, sadly. I guess she will regret losing you since you were the best student she ever had!” she responded, filling me in on a few details. “Sounds as if I am going to enjoy it here. Even if it will take something getting used to, not just you being a Pony, but also the magic and all the other changes compared with what I am used to!” I submitted. “I know how that feels. I had the same problem as I arrived at Canterlot High. Oh well, where is the other Twilight? She is supposed to be here somewhere and help me find the books!” she responded. “The other girl? You don’t mean the one you turned into when you went to where I came from? I thought you were supposed to have changed back into the Pony you are now!” I put forth. “That is the one, and yes I did. We found her here a few weeks ago!” she explained. “You called for me, Twilight?” came from behind a bookshelf not too far away. Then she came out from behind the bookshelf, face to face with the other Miss Sparkle, which is me. What am I to do now, try to hide or run away? No, that doesn’t quite feel like me. I quite like it here. “Yes, I did. Although I guess it is proper that I present to you, Miss Sparkle. How about you say hello to the Human. Miss Sparkle, say hello to my Human self?” the Pony presented us. “Hello, nice to meet you, as confusing as it may be!” I responded. “Hello, nice to meet you too. I guess I have to agree on the confusing part!” she responded in kind. “Uh, oh. Now I understand why you thought I had changed my mane style. Your other me looks like me, but with a style more like yours, Twilight!” I pointed out. “When you put it like that, make sure to watch out for your other self, and any others like me, in whatever guise they may be in as they wander around in or around the castle!” the Pony pointed out, matter of fact. “Exactly how many of you are there out there?” I exclaimed in shock. “I don’t know. For now, there is only you two girls, but there is an Earth Pony at Sweet-Apple Acres with my friend Applejack and her family. I have myself as daughter and a mare Unicorn. Then there is the Breezie I sent off to Fluttershy at her cottage. I have the impression there is a chance you bounce into another I have yet to see anywhere around in the castle!” the princess counted. “How many more Twilights could there possibly be, once you counted us all off?” the other girl expressed in sudden horror at the thought of bumping into yet another one, who and what ever she may be like. “When you put it like that, there is always the God-like me waiting for her introduction. On that note, there is the Changeling Girl and Pony from your school at Canterlot High, I fear!” the princess prompted with a wry grin playing on the corners of her mouth. “When you say God-like, you refer to something orders beyond yourself as an Alicorn?” the girl prompted. “Well; she would be about four times my potential, but last time I recall, she had some problems containing the raw power of it all. Thankfully, she doesn’t need to raise and lower the Sun and the Moon; Celestia and Luna respectively will handle these duties now. As luck has it, we are bound to face her any day now!” the Princess pointed out in no uncertain terms. “Wait, there are two more of me in Changeling guises?” I prompted. “Sunset Shimmer explained the event to me. If you met the girl with yellow and read hair?” the princess put forth. “Wait, I did see her once I got to the school, just after the entire incident was over!” the girl expressed. “Since I know I can trust you with books and science, I guess you could be my research assistants?” the Princess inquired. “Books and science? I was pretty advance on these, when I left off at the Crystal Prep. Sounds like fun. I doubt I could go back to Crystal prep, even if they may like me at Canterlot High. Sunset Shimmer gave me that idea. On that note, I hope your Equine counterparts will enjoy my presence and company too, even if I guess I will stay most of my time down here!” I prompted. “There is no going back now, I know as much. If you offer me a job worth doing and the friendship to go with it, how could I possibly refuse?” the Girl responded to the offer the Princess gave. “Thank you girls. The library upstairs is more than enough for my librarian Spike to handle. Besides, I will love to have the both of you on my side down here. On that note, Pinkie Pie will hit the roof and bounce all over the place in joy now!” the princess pointed out in glee. “If we all are the same, I already know you intimately. Borrowing the quirks the various circumstances we have been through; that is. This is after all my first time in Equestria, and I never did hang out with Ponies or Royalties such as you!” I pointed out. “You will most likely see a few more Royalties, and plenty of Ponies around here!” the Princess put forth. “As to Royalties, I have all I need right here. On the matter of the other Ponies, I guess you could introduce me to a few of your friends, at the most convenient opportunity!” I prompted. “Maybe I could get to meet the Celestia and Luna you got to know, as opposed to the once I knew at the High-school? As to the rest, I assume your friends are close enough to the once I knew from Canterlot?” the Girl filled in. “An Apple is an Apple. You can take her on the word any day of the week!” the princess proclaimed. “Since we are going to need new clothes, I take it we need to see your Rarity?” the Girl inquired. --- --- ---
