//------------------------------// // Rule 63 // Story: Chaos: the Age of Spike // by Kaliann25 //------------------------------// Rule 63!! A new day began at the Crystal Empire, with the sun making all the beautiful crystal towers to sparkle astonishingly making the city one of the most gorgeous in Equestria and also it worked as an alarm clock for everypony… except for the Empire’s Princess who managed to keep sleeping anyway. Not even the noise Shining Armor did waking up was capable to disturb Candace’s sleep; but after two years of marriage that didn’t surprise the captain anymore. But when he put a hoof out of the bed, the manly stallion noticed something was very wrong; everything looked slightly bigger, or perhaps he got a little smaller? He was freaking out but thought he was still half dreaming. It was when he looked himself reflected on the crystal walls; instead of a muscular stallion he saw a cute and delicate mare (very pretty if you ask me). Anyway, Shining’s reaction was the most obvious in that situation: to scream in fear. And that woke Candace. “Shiny?” She asked staring directly to her husband, and she had to shook her head to make sure she wasn’t dreaming. “Shiny?” Once recovered from the first impression, Shining’s fright turned into irritation so she pouted cutely. “Canace, we agreed we’ll do this only once and won’t ever talk about it again” she said with a cute little voice. Candace had to make a great effort to not laugh at this. “Ehem, you see darling, I swear this time I had nothing to do with this! Seriously, but… we can take advantage of it, right? As I always say: as the Princess of Love I’m open to all kinds of intimacy. Come here my beautiful mare” And just before Shining (or Glaming Shield?) could react, her wife cornered and kissed her passionately. But then a wave of chaos emerged from Glaming and before her Candace turned taller, more muscular, her face sharpened and her hair grew shorter; it was a male version of her: Prince Bolero. “What the heck?” He said with a manly voice. “Are you sure you didn’t do this?” Asked Glaming still pouting. “I’m going to melt to such cuteness!” Exclaimed Bolero. “But I didn’t I swear. Anyway, where were we my beloved?” Shining and Candace’s marriage was very good in that sense; the Princess of love was practically insatiable (according to her Magic Element of course) and loved to experiment all kind of new things, and of course Shining never complained about it, as a loving husband he was always open to experiment with his wife and this time would be no different. Bolero’s strong dominating lips took over Glaming’s while he sensually touched her flank, making Glaming to moan turning on even more Bolero. And they were about to start when the maid who took care of their room opened the door; and looking to the situation she walked away slowly. Every night all the maids in the castle bet who would clean their Majesties room because there was always the risk to see an inappropriate scene. “Talking about killing the mood” sighed Bolero. Glaming blushed but stayed as calm as she could. “That remind us that we still have things to do” said the new Princess. “But if you want we can continue later… and don’t make me repeat that please” Bolero hugged her. “Ow, my sweet maiden loved it as much as I did, I’m so happy! But I suppose you’re right” But when he tried to use the spell nothing happened, not even when Glaming helped her. Both of them looked to each other. “Well, at least I admit it wasn’t you” said Glaming. “Now what?” Bolero shrugged. “Face the people, what else we can do?” “Ey! You don’t know what’s like being in the Guard, they’ll laugh of me for months if I go out like this!” Cried Glamming. “Please my love…” “Ey, press will have a feast with this, do you think this is easy for me as well? No!” And since to such logic anypony will surrender, they both came out of the room. Unluckily for Glaming the first one she bumped into outside was her second in command Flash Sentry; who began to crack out at first sight. “Not funny Flash” said Glaming. “Ahahahahahahaha! Seriously pal, what kind of game were you and Candy playing? Or did you lost a bet or what, AHAHAHAHAHAH! Glaming pouted again and pushed him. The effect was immediate: at the touch the magic energy turned Flash Sentry into a female version of him: Flare Warden. But that didn’t end there, because of the surprise he began to move backwards and accidentally touched a bunch of guards walking by, turning them into mares. Bolero raised an eyebrow. “Now than I think about it, didn’t I change when I touched you Glaming?” She nodded and they all understood. “Okay, I need this area isolated now; nopony goes in, nopony goes out. We have to contain this strange curse in a single place before it extends to all Equestria” “Then what?” Asked Flare Warden. “We can’t stay like this forever!” “There’s something we can do” said Bolero, “we can write to my aunts… considering if they still my aunts or my uncles, I don’t know. but something tells me this is only another of Spike’s stupid pranks” Glaming moaned in exasperation, of course. But they ruined their plans isolating the area, so they could be calm… but the case was that the Crystal Empire wasn’t the only source of chaos. In Canterlot Castle, on Princess Luna’s private headquarters, the Night Airforce captain Black Swordsman (Ebony Swordsgirl?) woke up his wife with a shriek. “Black?” Jumped Lighting Flash. “What happened with you?” “Do I look as I know?” Said Ebony. “Damn it, don’t you have a spell to help me or something?” “You know I’m good only with combat magic” said Lighting walking around her wife annualizing the situation. “What’s the last thing you remember?” “Waking up looking like this” said Ebony. “Nothing I did yesterday explains this, I was training with the Airforce and then with the Shadow Bolts, I have no idea what happened” Lighting Flash didn’t understand, and couldn’t believe it neither. And as soon as she touched Black, the chaotic energy turned her into a stallion called Light Slash. “What the heck?” “We have to calm down” said Ebony, “that’s the only thing we can do for the moment” “Mama? Papa?” Asked a sweet voice entering to the room, freezing the two warriors. It was a pure white unicorn filly with black hair, brown eyes and a psychologist divan Cutie Mark. “Yui!” They both screamed at the time. The filly blinked several times to understand what she was seeing. “What happened to you? A spell went wrong or what?” “I have no idea Sweetheart” said Light Slash petting his daughter’s head to calm her. “But we’ll figure out what happened and fix this” And as soon he touched Yui, the spell transformed her into a him: Yuki. “WHAT?!” Yuki shouted jumping away his father/mother. “Now what I supposed to do?” The door opened letting in Princes Luna. “Ey what’s going on? Your’ too loud and it’s too early in the… whoa, what the hay happened here?” Ebony Swordsgirl suddenly had an idea and quickly took one of his swords, the Elucidator, and aimed it to her boss. “Princess, stay aside, this spells transfers by contact if you touch us you’ll become a Prince!” Luna nodded shocked for what she was seeing, but apparently Ebony’s deductive instincts clearly found the answer on time. But suddenly Luna’s thoughts were interrupted by a scream coming from her sister’s area. “Damn it, I have to check on my sister; in the meantime do not touch anypony, understood? Nopony, better if you stay in your room, I’ll give instructions to bring you your meals to your door without making contact” The warriors made a military salute and Luna ran to see what was going on with Celestia. They stayed hugged in silence when Ebony let escape a small giggle making the others giggle as well. “So, what’s so funny?” Asked Light Slash. The black swordsgirl shrugged. “Nothing, I just thought that in this girl form I won’t be able to wear my famous trench coat, it’s a shame” That comment made Yuki and Slash to laugh loudly and happily; both as Ebony or Black, the dark blue Pegasus was an expert to stay relaxed in strange situations by focus on the small details. “Well,” said Light Slash after he calmed a little, “then why don’t you use one of my armors instead? I think it’ll fit you in your current state and I’ll wear that trench coat of yours. I always wanted to know how it felt to use it” “As you wish, but the Elucidator and the Dark Repulser stay with me” said Ebony Swordsgril firmly. “How do you expect me to use those things at the same time, huh? I’m not a Pegasus” The family laughed happily again and since they had nothing better to do, they went to take a bath together. The bath of their room was big enough for everyone to fit in without any problems and they really liked those moments that allowed them to be a family since they were occupied most of the time attending school or serving Princess Luna. But speaking of Luna, she reached her sister’s wing only to find she had a brother now. Tall, muscular with a large floating beard instead of a mane. “Eh, what happened to you Tia? How did you ended up as… ehem, Lord Solaris?” Solaris, formerly Celestia, grumped annoyed. “I have no idea” he said with his strong tenor voice. “I only know that right after rise the sun, I heard a scream coming from captain Master Sword’s room and when I came to help him I found out that he is now a she known as Skyward Sword. I touched her to calm her down and I ended like this” Luna nodded thinking. “Yeah, I heard the same screams coming from Black and Lighting’s room but since they’re married the scandal they made helped them to found out that this thing is transmitted by contact. Now I highly recommend to isolate Master’s room to avoid this extends even more” “She calls herself Skyward now, but I get it” said Lord Solaris. “And for me I’ll go to my room” “I’ll give the orders to avoid contact” said Luna. Solaris thanked her and went to his room when several screams coming from outside called both Royal sibling’s attention. Princess Bluebelle, the female self of Blue Blood, entered to the Throne Room seeming very agitated and scared. Outside the Throne Room the screams from the ponies Bluebelle touched in her race there could be heard all over. “Aunties! Something terrible just happened to me!” Said Bluebelle. “And you just made it worst idiot!” Said Luna hearing the guards and servants turned to the opposite sex screaming all over. “What’s wrong with you? You’re supposed to be a trained elite soldier, you cannot panic risking everypony just like that!” Bluebelle fixed her mane, a gesture she already had being Blue Blood but it fitted better with her new self. “Ehem, with all respect this is an unknown situation with unknown concequences and even the leader of the Secret Service can panic easily to this” Solaris’ eyes widened and took Bluebelle by the shoulders and began to shake her violently. “Uncle! You’re hurting me, you supposed to be delicate with the ladies, uncle!” Cried in fear Bluebelle. Solaris released her but didn’t relax. “What did you just said Bluebelle? Before I shook you” “That even in this situation the leader of the Secret Service can panic” Luna understood too, “Military leaders!” The two Royal Siblings said at the same time. Solaris began to walk in circles. “Damn it, damn it, damn it; I guess Candace can handle Shining Armor but we have to isolate the Solar Guard, the Lunar Guard, the Secret Service and the Undercover Police in order to…” Luna froze. “The undercover police! DAMN IT, their leader lives in the middle of the red district! That means that…” “It’s too late for the city” moaned Solaris. Bluebelle nodded. “So can you explain me now how did I made it worse?” Now to explain some things: the Undercover Police was an elite military unit formed by Princess Luna composed mostly by reformed criminals who stayed in their positions in the underworld and secretly gave information about any secret mob complot to the Crown. It was a very dangerous job and only the bests could handle it. And it was leaded by one of the most feared and vicious bounty hunters of all times: the ex-wanted criminal Beatrix Lulamoon; known for her brutality and trickery. Anyway, Trixie Lulamoon, now known as Trickster Moon woke up looking his new body very scared. “No, no, no, no; god damn it, no!” Somepony knocked the door. “Trixie? Are you okay? Is somepony else with you?” Asked a voice. Still very confused Trickster walked downstairs to open the door to two of her dearest underworld friends: very well-known tricksters and enemies of Applejack Apple, the Flim and Flam twins. “Ey, what happened to you Trixie? Did you transformed into a stallion to escape?” “Don’t tell me the police is after you… or it’s Vito Colteone?” Trickster pushed them out of his house. “Ey, I really appreciate your concern but in this moment Trickster is a little too scared and needs his privacy. Come back later!” And like the lasts time, as soon as he touched Flim and Flam they transformed into Shim and Sham whose reaction was the most predictable: “WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!” And they ran away pushing everypony who was on their way spreading the spell even more. Trickster looked at them with a drop on his temple and sighed to then put his head under a stream of cold water. “This is weird but I have to stay cool and maybe inform my boss and…” Suddenly he was teleported against his will to Canterlot Castle where he found his boss Princess Luna, a male version of Princess Celestia and the female self of Blue Blood. “Okay, did I missed something?” Luna nodded. “Sorry for bringing you here so rudely Trixie but something very strange is affecting all the military leaders and as the leader of the undercover police we brought you here before you touch anypony” Trickster shrugged. “Okay, I get it but right now can you call me Trickster? Trickster Moon, it fits better considering the situation” “Whatever!” Complained Solaris. “You haven’t touch anypony, right Mr. Moon?” “Sorry but I already had” said Trickster. “My two friends came to say hi and I kind of pushed them out of my house transforming them into girls and…” Bluebelle materialized a cushion to allow her uncle to faint as she used to, but instead of that, Solaris kicked the wall making a huge crack in the process. “BUCK!” “I suppose I must add that they ran away touching everypony on their way” said Trickster. Luna waked backwards fearing the reaction from Solaris. “Ehem, try to look at the bright side brother, now you can understand men’s mind and…” Solaris glared to his sister. “That reminds me, you haven’t being touched yet, right Luna?” Luna got it, she teleported to her refugee: a chalet she built in the moon during her exile. Solaris then looked at Trickster and Bluebelle. “Well, I suppose you don’t have the fault for what’s going on. Anyway, SKYWARD SWORD!” A young mare wearing an armor appeared. “What are your orders, Lord Solaris?” “Isolate Canterlot, no pony goes in, no pony goes out. We must stop this now than we can” Skyward nodded and teleported to headquarters, that were on the middle of the city. “Soldiers! We have a situation between hooves!” She said to the army, who seemed very surprise to see her in that state. “A spell is gender-bendering the entire city by contact and we must prevent it to spread! Any questions?” “Yeah, can you give us advice to hit on beautiful mares like you, captain?” Mocked a soldier. “Also, you look so hot in that armor” Skyward Sword touched the idiot to turn him into a mare and looked around. “Anypony else thinks this is a joke? Well, that’s what I thought. Now let’s move, we should protect the ponies. We must lost Canterlot but we have the rest of Equestria to save!” In Ponyville Twilight woke up early and went downstairs when she saw Spike coming out of his room, but he seemed a little different, instead of a dragon he was now a dragoness, a very pretty one by the way. “Morning Twi!” Greeted Barb with a cute little voice. “Spike? What you’ve done? Did you put us the crazy glasses again?” Barbara, formerly Spike, giggled shyly. “Oh none of that Twi! You see: yesterday, don’t ask me how started, the agents and I were discussing about our next prank. Mist wanted something like zombies but the girls said it was too extreme and such. Su at the end Mist said something offensive about girls and before I knew it I got mixed in the discussion” Twilight rolled her eyes. “Typical!” “I know right? So I came out with this idea” Twilight face-hoofed. “Don’t tell me this is your prank, to transform yourself into a female” “No, my prank is this!” Said Barbara touching Twilight, transforming her into Dusk Shine. “Have a nice day, Dusk” said Barb. “If I were you I would avoid touching the other ponies” “And what are you going now?” “I haven’t decided yet, perhaps go shopping or to the spa. You know what’s interesting? That’s the exact same things I would do in my normal self. Anyway, take care!” Then she disappeared. Dusk Shine rolled his eyes and after taking an aspirin, he went looking for his friends being careful to not touch anypony. But in his way he found Applejohn along with a colt Dusk supposed was Apple Bloom. “Twi! A’m glad I found you, precisely A’ was going to see ya’! As always A’ went to wake Apple Bloom and A’ found him instead, I touch him by accident and ended up like this; then I touched Granny Smith and Big Mac and now A’ have an older sister and a grandpa” Dusk nodded. “I know, is another of Spike’s pranks. We better reunite the others and…” A shriek coming from Carrousel Boutique called their attention, it was awesome how it changed from contralto to baritone in a second. “Something tells me that Spike just visited Rarity, how do you think she’s called now that’s a he?” Asked Applejohn. “No idea, but according to Spike now I’m called Dusk Shine” said the alicorn. “Now let’s move before his panic attack makes him do something stupid” They broke into the boutique and ran to the second floor only to see the elegant Elusive trembling in a corner examining himself and his younger brother Sweepie Belle. “Sweetie! What happened to us? I just touched you and now we’re boys!” “Cool isn’t it?” Asked Apple Buck (Apple Bloom) jumped from his brother’s back. “Let’s go for Scoots and let’s try to find our Cutie Marks in something dangerous that leaves damages everywhere” “Isn’t that what we always do?” Asked Sweepie. “I know, boys, girls, what’s the difference?” Asked Buck. They nodded in understanding and ran downstairs to have their fun. Dusk tried to stop them to avoid spread the chaos but Elusive’s panic attack required all his attention. “Come on Rarity, this isn’t so bad” tried to say Applejohn. “It’s another of Spike’s jokes, it’ll pass soon. Calm down” “Calm down? Calm down? Precisely I just made a gorgeous dress for the Gala, and how would I wear it if I’m a male now?” “Well, Caramel loves to use the dresses you make but he’s an especial case” reasoned Applejohn. “Any case use a suit. You design those too, right?” That calmed the fashionista. “Of course! How I didn’t thought about it? Yes, if not divine I’ll look brave and gorgeous, yeah, that can work. Thank you my friend. Now give me five minutes and I’ll be with you, okay? It has been a tough morning” And after five minutes, Elusive appeared with a dark purple jacket and a light blue bow tie. “Ready, let’s go” In the meantime Apple Buck and Sweepie Blell found Scooter and were in their way to the Chaos headquarters when Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon intercepted them. “What do you want now?” Said Scooter. “We’re busy” “We want to defeat you of course” said Diamond. “Do you think your stupid costume will save you from us? No, as soon as we prove you are the agents of chaos your sisters…” Sweepy rolled his eyes and touched both of them, the effect was instant. “Ey, what kind of joke is this?” Asked the boy. “DADDY!” Mister Rich came surprised. “Diamond Tiara? What happened to you? You’re… you’re a boy, what happened?” “They happened” cried the colt. “They transformed me into a boy by touching me!” Apple Buck approached. “Mr. Rich, it was an accident! This is the new trick of the Lord of Chaos, you have to be very careful to touch nopony or the spell will affect you too” Filthy Rich recognized Apple Bloom and nodded, of course, it had to be the Lord of Chaos. “I get it” he said entering to his business to put rubber boots and then he escorted his son back home. “First of all I always wanted to have a boy, isn’t this great? Now let’s get you change” “Change?” “Yeah, tiaras are for ladies my son; a colt as you haves to use something more appropriate, a tie perhaps? Yeah, your new name will be Splendor Tie. Anyway, let’s move” And of course the scene caused the agents of chaos to laughs. Silver Spoon looked at them offended but recognized they bested them again and went back home. “So what we do now?” Asked Scooter. “Let’s play something, how about hide and seek?” Asked Apple Book. And they went to play while Barb (Spike) went to the spa when she found the spell had already affected Aloe and Lotus. “Give us a good reason to service you today” demanded Lichen. Barb just materialized several jewels and offered to the twins, making them sigh. “Get it, what the heck do you want?” “The usual: the complete treatment” asked Barb while the brothers guided her to sauna, the ladies one of course. On the sauna Mayor Mare was having her relaxation before work when she saw Spike coming to the place. “Ey, this is a ladies sauna” “And for today I’m a lady” said Barb. “Don’t you see?” The mayor approached to see her closer, without her glasses it was a little difficult to see (not to mention the steam) but the reptil was right; she was a dragoness not a dragon. “Spike! What happened to you?” “It’s Barb, and this happened” said the dragoness touching the mare. “What the hay? What you’ve done to me?” “Oh come on Mr. Mayor, sooner or later you would had to be affected, I only recommend you to avoid touching the others, but at this point I think is already too late” And she sat relaxing. The mayor just looked at him and moved to the other sauna. Back to Canterlot, captain Skyward Sword working side by side with Lunar captains Ebony Swordsgirl and Light Slash; and the leader of the Undercover Police Trickster Moon have finished isolating Canterlot but they reacted too late, Shim and Sham spreaded the chaos to more cities despite the military barrier. “And all because Princess Luna thought it was a good idea to keep an eye to the most dangerous criminals with her stupid undercover police” “Shut up!” Said Trickster. “We could do this faster if it wasn’t for Solaris who kept me distracted with his panic, I could isolate the red district in no time but no, he had to keep bothering me and scold me” “She’s right” said Ebony. “If somepony know how to move in the red district that’s Trickster. Is his specialty” “And that’s why the undercover police is so efficient” said Light Slash. “Oh, and Ebony, my armors fits better in you than myself, you’re sexier than I am” The dark blue Pegasus blushed and smiled to her husband. “Thank you my love, and my trench coat also looks gorgeous in you, it marks your muscles better than mines” They laughed flirting mutually while Skyward rolled her eyes. Those were the deadliest warrior in all Equestria? Sweet Celestia they were doomed! Now, moving back to Ponyville in Sugar Cube Corner, an energetic stallion called Berry Bubble (pink with his hair in magenta and curled was bouncing happily to the bathtroom where he found Lyra, Bon-Bon and Vinyl Scratch. “OH, PERVERT! He apologized. “Upsi, sorry pals, I forgot that I’m not Pinkie anymore, my mistake. Sorry!” “Ey what you meant?! Asked Lyra taking Berry by the shoulder but turning into Harpsi by doing that. Berry bounced away leaving Harpsi and Bon-Bon alone. “Oh no! What I suppose to do now, Bon-Bon?! We can’t be together anymore! “Lyra, darling, try to calm down!!” “But I can’t” You like mares and I… “he closed his eyes”… I like stallions Bonnie, what should I do now?” “We’ll make it work” assured Bon-Bon kissing his fiancé; but when she kissed him she turned into Babar. “See? A little touch and that’s it!” They began kissing passionately. Vinyl just scratched her head looking at her two friends and tried to escape before things got weirder but as soon as she tried to move away she grazed them turning into Vinny. “What the fuck?!” Vinny Asked. "Oh well, I suppose I must find Octavi... Octavio" Carrot entered to the bathroom, seeing an stallion looking at two stallions kissing each other. “THREE PERVERTS, HELP!” “Shut the fuck up Carrot Top!” Said Vinny touching the mare and leaving. And moving to the skies, Rainbow Blitz grumped cursing her bad luck: at first she stayed at Fluttershy’s, spreading the chaos by touching Derpy (Derpo?) who touched anypony else while reparting the mail; so the cyan Pegasus had only one mission now and was to locate the source of the chaos along with his friend Butterscotch, the male version of Fluttershy. “Rainbow, this is useless, I think we should go back to town!” Suggested Butterscotch. “Yeah, I think you’re right!” Sighed the stallion. And they both flew to Ponyvillle looking for the agents of chaos, why they won’t came to face them already? That was weird. But the agents of chaos were too busy looking at a little girl who was trying her best to play with dolls. The three of them exchanged a look and approached to Ablaze. “Ey Ablaze, what’ ya doing?” “Nothing, trying to be a girl” complained the Pegasus girl. Scooter rolled his eyes. “Rumble, precisely that’ why we started this. it doesn’t’ matter if you’re a boy or a girl, you should enjoy yourself and have a great time! Come on, join us! We’re having so much fun” Ablaze considered for a minute. “You know what? Why not, boys, girls, what’s the difference?” “That was the point” sighed Sweetie Belle. Ablaze looked at the CMC and joined them happily. And now that the lesson is over, let’s move back to Canterlot where Ebony Swordsgirl, Trickster Moon, Light Slash and Skyward Sword did all what they could but it was already too late. “Okay, we quit!” Announced Light Slash. “Ey, what you think you’re doing?” Scolded Lord Solaris. “You suppose to isolate Canterlot, go back to work” “With all respect Princess, we helped you guard as a favor” said Trickster. “We only obey Princess Luna, you have no jurisdiction among us” “And when we ‘isolated’ the city it was already too late” sighed Ebony Sowrdsgirl, “there was nothing we could do” “But if it helps, Skyward is still on her position” shrugged Light Slash. And the three leaders of Luna’s forces simply walked away. Solaris stayed there, completely offended but suddenly the solution came him. “Ey, wait!” He asked the Lunar leaders. “How I didn’t see it before? I need you three to follow me, and go find Blue Blood. We need to move to Ponyville, I found how stop this” The guards exchanged a look but nodded quickly and ran to the action. For Solaris, he wrote an urgent letter to Crystal Empire asking the presence of Glaming Shield. The letter materialized to the servants who carefully knocked their Crystal Majesties door. “Ehem, sorry for interrupting you my Queen and King but we got a letter from Canterlot. Lord Solaris found a solution to our problem and demands our Queen presence. The door opened letting pass Bolero, who seemed very frustrated just like Glaming, but well, at least they had almost a day to enjoy their new roles in bed and all good things had to finish somehow. Bolero teleported them to Canterlo where the other military leaders were alrady waiting. “Ey, why you need us uncle Solaris?” Asked Bolero. Bluebelle smiled to her cousin. “He says that if this started affecting all the Kingdom military leaders it haves to end with us so here we are; and by the way Shine, you look pretty as a mare” “You have an stunning figure for yourself pal” giggled Glaming. “All the elegance and grace of a high class damsel” They both laughed happily at this, a joke that they allowed only to their best friend (each other). But then Solaris called to order. “Okay, now that we’re all here let’s move. Ebony, Light, do you have those things you use in Aincrad for massive teleportation?” “Jump-Crystals, yes” said the Ebony Swordsgirl showing one to Solaris. “Where you want us to go?” “Ponyvillle” Ebony threw the large blue crystal to activate it: “JUMP, PONYVILLE!!” They appeared on the main plaza, Trickster smiled. “Oh the memories, this is the place I enslaved when that damn amulet drove me crazy, right before I became a bounty hunter” Everypony except for Ebony and Light, who were his closest friends, glared at Trickster who just shrugged not caring. But then Dusk noticed them. “Ey, what are you all doing here?” “We came here to help you, my faithful student” explained Solaris. “We have a solution for this but we need to move to your place, shall we?” Dusk nodded happily and guided them to his home; and after reunite with Dusk’s friends they all took a seat on the Friendship’s Throne Room. “So what’s the answer, my King?” Asked Buttersotch, the male Fluttershy. “The military leaders, who were the main source of this problem. So let’s cure them and spread the cure as soon as possible” Dusk smiled and took an Harmony Grenade. “Okay, we’re ready” “Just wait a second” protested Elusive. “What about her? Why is the beast of Blue Blood a military leader, huh? A good-for-nothing brat just like him have no place in here” “He is not a good-for-nothing brat as you described him Mr. Elusive, in fact he’s an elite soldier, the best of my spies, the master of all secret agents and the leader of the Secret Service. Besides he had a very good reason to act like a jerk when he met you, right Bluebelle?” The mare made a small bow to Elusive. “I beg for your pardon mister, back to the first time we met I confused you by a target I had that night so I approached… when I noticed my mistake I tried to make you walk away by acting like a jerk but you didn’t leave and I crossed a line I know I shouldn’t. It was my fault, you see, my work as a spy sometimes affects me negatively” Elusive raised an eyebrow but nodded accepting Bluebelle’s apology, if he had Solaris’ support she must be telling the truth. But other who weren’t so convinced was Rainbow Blitz. “And what about you, Trixie?” Trickster rolled his eyes. “After you defeated me with the amulet I became a bounty hunter, then the mob god-father, Don Vito Colteone asked me to finish the two new Lunar captains: the former mercenaries Black Swordsman and Lighting Flash. They kicked my butt but instead of arrest me they gave me the choice to work for Princess Luna as an undercover police officer. And here I am, the new chief of the newest military corp” “Guys, we don’t have all day!” Protested Dusk. They all tightened together ready for the main attraction, and Dusk released a Grenade ready to fix the disaster; but only Skyward Sword, Bluebelle and Trickster came back to normal. “Next time try to stay closer” suggested the purple alicorn preparing a new Grenade. They obeyed but as soon as Ebony touched Blue Blood, he was turned back to Bluebelle. “Ey, not fair!” Protested the blonde Princess. “You have to be transformed all at the same time, I need some help here” And Applejoyhn and Buttersoctch prepared their Grenades too revert the spell and it worked this time. “Too tight” Black Swordsman protested struggling in his wife’s armor. Lighting Flash giggled. “Here, let me help you” she said removing the uncomfortable outfit from her husband. “Now we can reverse the effect” smiled Solaris touching Master Sword, but then Master turned back to Skyward. “OH, COME ON!” She complained. “I don’t understand, we supposed to revert this” mumbled Solaris. Barbara entered to the room, and after laugh at Solaris’ beard he explained: “My King, they were the origin but the chaos is already all over the Kingdom, if you want to revert it you have to spread the Rainbow Power, not use your ridiculous Grenades that are powerful but not powerful enough” Solaris stared at her. “How we know you’re not lying to us, Barbara?” The dragoness made appear a map of Equestria covered with red light spots. “Each light represents a pony who was transformed to the opposite sex, and as you can see, I already won. All Equestria is affected by my Rule 63 spell; such as the Changelling Hive and the Dragon Kingdom. You should see King Metamorphosis, he almost kills me… not to mention Queen Bonfire. In fact, why not show you?” And she made appear two photographs of the new Dragon Queen and the King of all Changellings and they didn’t seem too happy. “This zombie-like pranks spreads quick, perhaps I’ll use the idea one other time” smiled Barb. “So as you can see, I already won; why should I stop you?” The Mane 6 glared at the Lady of Chaos but didn’t say anything, just activated the Rainbow Powers and cured the world from Spike’s attack. When they came back they saw that the spell didn’t work on Glaming Shield. “Spike!” Warned Twilight. “It wasn’t me, I swear! You know when you use your Powers mines are sealed for three hours” “What? Then why I’m stuck like this?” Asked Glaming. They all looked each other confused but then Candace casted a scan-spell on her wife to see what was going on. She gasped. “What happened to me Candace?” Cried Glaming. “Ehm, darling I don’t know how to tell you this but… when we were together in our changed roles you kind of… got pregnant” “WHAT?” And Glaming fainted. Candace let escape a laugh and turned her back to Shinng Armor. “Candace, he almost have a stroke!” Shouted Twilight. Blue Blood looked at her. “What’s with your sense of humor, cuz? Poor Shine” Candace shrugged. “Ey, you don’t need divine powers to make good pranks, just enjoy the moment” They all face-hoofed but smiled. At least everything was okay now.
