Princess Luna gazes outside, from a tower, as the yellow sun sets another day. Another day has passed that Twilight and Luna have gone to the human world. Everypony begins to shut off work and call it a night. Shining Armor is by Luna's side, keeping her company.
"Princess, what shall we do? We have two ponies and a dragon go into the world of humans. Shouldn't we have found a way to get them back by now?" Shining Armor paced around the tower walls.
"I do not know, Shining Armor. But I know that we are currently finding as many ponies as we can." Luna reassured him, staring at the sun. "I hope somepony will help us." She said under her breath.
"But it's been a month since she's been gone. I'm getting worried!"
"I know, Shining Armor. You are Twilight Sparkle's brother. But we must wait!"
"What good is WAITING going to do?!" Shining Armor shouted in grief, holding back the aggression.
Luna is shocked, she begins to shout back. "HOW DARE YOU SHOUT AT ROYALTY!" Her shout caught him off guard, knocking him down.
Shining Armor is quiet, "...My apologies, Princess Luna.." He bows down in front of her. "I wish for your forgiveness, Princess."
"All is forgiven.. I understand what you're going through." Her voice quiets down to normal.
"Thank you, Princess."
"Possibly tomorrow, we will have at least one pony willing to help..." Princess Luna begins to walk to the castle. "Come, Shining Armor, you must rest now. I will keep watch now."
"Yes, Princess. Thank You."
The next morning, three mysterious ponies enter Camelot. Rumors spread of how they are the strongest beings in Equestria, in magic. Words spread fast to the guards, and into the ears of a Royal Pony Messenger.
The messenger quickly gallops back to the castle to alert the Princess of an arrival of new ponies.
The messenger reaches the Princess' room, getting her attention. "Princess Celestia! Princess Celestia!"
"What is it, Royal Messenger?" She looks into the messenger's eyes, he is tired and surprised.
"Your Highness, there have been three special ponies in Equestria. They say they are the strongest ponies, in magic. Maybe they can help with bringing back two back?" He said in a hurried way.
"Hmm..." She thinks for a minute, "Quite possibly they are here to help us.... yet, they might not." Celestia begins to pace herself around the room.
Shining Armor burst open the doors, "Princess Celestia, three ponies want your company."
Princess Celestia stops her pacing, "Who are they?"
"Three Unicorns. All claiming to be strong."
She is not surprised, "Let them in."
"Yes!" Shining Armor exists the room. Three unicorns enter the room, wearing a red cloak, with a gold amulet around ones neck. Shining Armor comes back also. "Here they are."
Celestia took the time to make a joke, "Wow, I never expected the Spanish Inquisition.."
"Ha ha ha. We've heard that joke before." One of the ponies said sarcastically. "Dear Princess Celestia." All of the ponies wearing the cloaks bow down. "We are hear to answer your cry for powerful beings."
The Princess became serious. "Alright then.. All joking aside.. What can you do?"
One of the ponies removes his hood, begins to show images from his horn. "We three are powerful in magic. We elevate cities and castles in a matter of seconds. We have calmed many angry dragons from consuming all of the gems and minerals. We threw back the Griffins even before you were born, my Princess!" He looks at the Princess with his staff glowing bright red, two guards are on their guard, ready to defend. "Princess! We three siblings are the strongest of any pony there is! What can't we do?" He asked her rhetorically.
"At ease!" Shining Armor shouted through the hall.
"The three of you... What are your names?"
"I... I am Bloodhoof!" Bloodhoof conjures a giant scepter into his right hoof. He was red in color with a gray mane. "The other two are Seren and Avalon." Both remove their hoods, both having a long white mane and a light blue body type.
"Hello.." They both said to the Princess.
"Greetings, Avalon and Seren. Will you help us retrieve the lost?"
"Yes.." Both said monotonously.
"Thank you, Avalon and Seren."
Bloodhoof looks at Celestia, "Princess, in order to use our magic, we must have a wide open field."
"Explain to me why?.."
"Me, Avalon and Seren are the most powerful beings in all of the land. We plan to open a portal, big enough to send in one pony in, but return with a mass amount of items or beings. Such as your precious student. But she has to be very fast and willing to do the job." Bloodhoof explained. "Unfortunately, the moment I open the portal; it will open quickly and swallow anything nearby; growing in a dangerously increasing rate. The two sisters will stabilize the portal with magic."
"And where do you plan to open this mystical entity? This.. portal?"
"The courtyard."
Princess Celestia begins to doubt Bloodhoof, "I don't know.."
Avalon stands up, "Princess, do you want to see your precious student again?"
"Yes, but.."
Seren interrupts Celestia, "But what?"
"I do not want to risk losing another pony.." The Princess said
"You would rather save the life of other ponies, but not the ones trapped in the other world? The humans in that world are SCUM! They are filthy, evil, deceiving, twisted scum!" Seren shouted at the Princess, showing her anger.
"I know, but.." Princess Celestia was interrupted again
"But nothing! Think of this, your little Twilight... She might be abused right now! Lyra... she probably is being ripped open and eaten by them! And this Spike! By now, he could be sold into slavery and is physically abused!" Seren looks into Celestia's eyes.
The Princess is terrified of the thought, "No.... They can't...."
"Look!" Seren stomped her hoof, she conjures an image of Twilight covered in blood, "Look at her! She is suffering from her wounds. Her abusers beat her everyday and threaten to kill her everyday if any mistakes were made!"
"Oh my... My..." Celestia is speechless. "I... I don't know what to say.."
"Think carefully... Would you like to see everypony in Equestria, die or sold into slavery by these... filthy humans?" Seren leaves the room with that question.
Bloodhoof and Avalon follow Seren out of the door. Bloodhoof looks back at the Princess, who is still speechless, "Princess! We will return tomorrow... Choose which pony will be inside the realm of the humans." The three ponies leave the castle grounds.
"Shining Armor..." The Princess spoke.
"Yes?"
"Call Twilight's friends."
"Understood, where are they to await you?"
"In the courtyard... Tell them to meet me immediately."
Celestia awaits the others in the courtyard, waiting for them to appear at the castle doors. Celestia's began to worry more of Twilight. Her mind has been warped by the image of Twilight's demise. She began to rethink of sending another pony into the human world.
The castle guards blew the horns, notifying Celestia that the guests have arrived. AJ and RD were the leaders of the remaining Mane 6. AJ walked up to Celestia, looking straight in her eyes, the eyes of desperation.
"Princess! We've came as soon as we came--" AJ looked into her desperate eyes. "What'sa matter?" AJ asked.
"It's... nothing..."
"Well, alright.. I guess.. So what ya call us for?"
"I think at least one of you have heard of rumors about.... 3 newcomers."
"3 Newcomers? We should throw a party for them!" Pinkie said with glee.
Celestia looks at Pinkie, "No Pinkie, its not important now." She looks towards the others, "You all probably heard of what they can do or what they are, so I will hurry... They will create giant.. portal, but need only one pony to enter."
"Who's goin' through?" AJ asked in curiosity.
"Rainbow Dash..."
Everypony gasped as she was chosen, "But... But why me?" RD questioned.
"Rainbow Dash.. You are the most loyal and the bravest pony in Ponyville. Maybe in all of Equestria!"
"Well... I.. Thank you, Princess. But I don't know if I'm ready!" RD is worried.
"I'm sorry, but you must be ready by sunrise tomorrow.. Meet me here again..."
The sun begins to set on the land, the stars beginning to shine. Everyone waits at the train station for the next train back to Equestria. Rainbow Dash is silent around her friends, thinking clearly about why she was chosen.
"Why? Why do I have to go?" Rainbow Dash asked to herself.
"We don't know, but all we know is that she needs ya." AJ tried to be sympathetic. "I'm sorry, Rainbow. If it's anythin', we're gonna to miss ya very much."
Rainbow smiles a bit, "Thanks, Applejack. I'll miss you too."
Pinkie begins to cry, "*sob* I'll miss you Rainbow Dash! We should throw you a.. *sob* going away party!"
Rainbow tilts her head back, "It's ok, Pinkie. I don't need one."
Rarity stands up, "Rainbow Dash! Before you go to the other world, I'll make a design so special-- it'll keep you protected from those filthy humans!" Everyone laughs at Rarity, "Quiet! All of you! We're losing another friend and you laugh at moi?"
Rainbow Dash stopped laughing, "Ok Rarity, I get it. I'll wear your stinking dress."
The group talked and laughed throughout the night as they waited for the train. They wait and wait, long enough that they all fell asleep. The train finally came along at midnight, but they never woke up to enter the train.
The next morning, Rainbow Dash had awaken from her sleep. She looks at the sky, watching the birds fly by as the sun began to appear. A tear comes out of her eye.
"I'm gonna miss ya, blue Equestrian sky.." Rainbow Dash whispered as she sheds a tear. She looks back at her friends one last time. She flies off to the castle to meet with Princess Celestia and the others. She thought to herself, "Wow... I can't believe I'm gonna go to the human world. But I don't know If I'm ever gonna come back to this place ever.." She stops and takes a look back at the train station one last time before resuming her flight.
Rainbow Dash enters the courtyard, she sees Princess Celestia with the other three. Rainbow did not show fear or regret, she was ready to pass on to the other side. Seren and Avalon stood opposite, on the castle walls, across each other as they awaited for Bloodhoof's commands.
Bloodhoof walked towards Rainbow Dash, "Are you ready to move on?" He asked. Rainbow Dash was about to speak, but her friends came in at the nick of time, cheering for her. "What in the...?"
Her friends ran up to her, holding many gifts for Rainbow. "Here Rainbow, I just gotten this done for you!" Rarity gave her a blue shirt with her cutie mark on it.
Rainbow Dash was surprised, "Wow! You made this?" She wore the shirt immediately.
"Yup! All for you!"
"Honestly, I thought you'd make it all something with jewels on it."
"I would, but I wouldn't want those filthy humans touching Equestrian Diamonds!"
Pinkie gave Rainbow a cupcake, "Here!" Pinkie smiles as she gives her the cupcake. She turns away, talking under her breath, "I made it out of clouds and magic... and blood!" She laughed maniacally.
Everyone looks at Pinkie Pie in awkward silence. "Ya alright there, pardner?" AJ asked.
"Uh huh!" Pinkie Pie nods her head fast, giving an innocent smile.
"Here's the others! We're gonna miss ya, so here they are!" AJ gave Rainbow a big bottle of Granny Smith's Apple Cider. Fluttershy gave her a stuffed pony.
"A stuffed pony?" Rainbow asked Fluttershy.
"Well, you know, it'll keep you safe at night.."
"Aww, thanks everyone! I'll keep these safe with me!" Rainbow grasped onto Granny Smith's bottle of Apple Cider, but soon dropped it. "Uh.. Oh well! At least, I can have the shirt!"
"Y... Yeah.."
Rainbow Dash looked towards Bloodhoof, "Alright! I'm ready!"
Bloodhoof turned around and conjured his staff. He began emit a red glow from his horn and staff. His staff emits a small portal onto the courtyard grounds. The portal soon became bigger, swallowing anything nearby. The guards flew up or ran to the castle walls, so did Celestia. Avalon and Seren emit a yellow glow from their horns, blasting magic on the portal, stabilizing it and preventing growth.
"Go!" Bloodhoof shouted. Rainbow Dash quickly jumped into the portal and disappeared almost immediately.
"Where'd Rainbow go?" AJ demanded from Bloodhoof.
"To the human world, she will not lose her flight ability, but will be transformed into a human. But I'm not certain.." Bloodhoof looked at the sky, "The sun seems to be nice today.. Maybe Rainbow Dash will come through safely there.."
