In the Dining Room:
The girls are still hiding where they hear the footsteps coming in the room. When they enter the room the footsteps are from Princess Celestia and Princess Luna.
“The dining room is looking excellent,” Princess Celestia says happily.
“Indeed, the girls have really made it good this year,” Luna replies.
“Yes, plus I’m also looking forward to see what Discord surprise band is,” Celestia says happily.
“I’m not entirely sure about it, remember what happen last time,” Luna says unsurely.
“You shouldn’t worry little sister I’m sure the gala will go good without any more surprises.” Celestia replies happily.
Just then the princesses hear some strange noises coming from the rose bush where Fluttershy is hiding right now.
“Sister there’s something behind that bush. I’ll take care of it,” Luna says and going to use her horn to get whoever behind the bush out, but Celestia stop her with her wing.
“Now Luna, we don’t know if this creature is a friend or a foe, I’ll go to talk to it,” Celestia suggests.
Celestia then makes her way to the bush where Fluttershy is, she then get down to the level Fluttershy is in and says, “Hello my name is Princess Celestia and this is my sister Princess Luna. We don’t want to harm you so would you please come out so that we may help you.”
Fluttershy didn’t know what to think of it, but the voice of the creature sounds really nice and really wants to help. Fluttershy then takes a deep breath and decides to come out of her hiding place.
When Fluttershy came out of her hiding place to reveal herself, Celestia and Luna gasp because the Fluttershy from the human world resemble the Fluttershy in Equestria.
“Sister that creature looks a lot like Fluttershy,” Luna whispers to Celestia.
“How do you know my name?” Fluttershy asks shyly.
“Yes but why is… ” Celestia is about to ask why until she realize
“Oh I think I understand what’s going on,” Celestia says realizing what is going on. Then she turns to Fluttershy with a small smile on her face.
“Tell me are you from the world Sunset Shimmer is currently living?” Celestia asks calmly.
“Yes,” Fluttershy answers.
“But why are you here?” Luna asks in concern.
“Well… you see… me and the girls are having a sleepover and a party for our friend Twilight. Then we’re sleeping and woke up in one of the guest rooms. Lucky Sunset Shimmer was with us so that we can understand where we are, but she thought it would be a good idea to find a way to get back home before someone sees us,” Fluttershy explains.
That made the princesses really surprised that Sunset Shimmer Princess Celestia’s old student is here in Equestria as well.
“Child are you say that Sunset Shimmer is here?” Luna asks surprisingly.
Fluttershy simply nods her head.
“But where is she?” Celestia asks.
“She might be hiding like the rest of us,” Fluttershy answers.
“You mean there’s more of you?” Celestia says surprisingly.
“Yes me and my friends got teleported her by a scary creature,” Fluttershy shutters.
“Creature?” The princesses say worried.
Then Luna starts to understand what is going on and asks, “Tell me Fluttershy, does this creature has a head of a pony and the rest of his body are from other animals,”
“Yes your highness. I believe Sunset called him… Discord,” Fluttershy simply answers.
After hearing Fluttershy’s testimony, it is very obvious that this was Discord’s doing. Celestia also remember that Twilight told her that Sunset Shimmer made new friends with her and her friends counterparts and figure out what’s really going on and explain why she’s here with the others.
“I should have known,” Luna says annoyed.
“What do you mean?” Fluttershy asks worried.
“We’ll explain as soon as we find your friends,” Celestia suggests.
“Okay,” Fluttershy replies with a small smile on her face.
With that, Celestia starts to look for the others. As she is making her way towards one of the windows she can see magenta and purple slippers under the curtains.
“Hello,” Celestia says calmly.
“Um nothing in here but us curtins,” Sunset Shimmer’s voice comes out from behind the curtains.
Celestia gets really surprised by the voice and know who this voice belongs to,“Sunset is that you?”
Sunset flinches realizing she gives herself away, since Celestia is able to recognize her voice so easily. Sunset didn’t know what to do about the situation she is in. She decides to take a deep breath and decide to come out of hiding to confront Celestia.
After coming out of the covers revealing herself Sunset starts to bow to Celestia and says, “Yes princess.”
“Now Sunset there’s no need to bow,” Celestia calmly says.
“But Princess…” Sunset tries to say in a worried tone but Celestia put her hoof on Sunset’s shoulder.
“Don’t worry, you don’t have to be formal. Right now we need to find your other friends and I assume that one of them is behind the curtains next to the one you were hiding,” Celestia replies calmly.
“Yes Princess,” Sunset replies a little unsure about the situation.
Then she turns around facing the other curtain and says, “Rarity you can come out now and I don’t think we’re in trouble, I think.”
Rarity decides to come out too shearing that their hiding spot has been exposed.
“I’m willing to bet that you’re the Rarity from the other world correct?” Celestia suggests.
“Yes your highness,” Rarity replies as she cursey to show respect to the princess.
“It’s very nice to meet you Rarity, but let’s not act so formal okay,” Celestia replies calmly.
“Yes princess,” Rarity answers.
After a few moment they also been able to find Twilight and the others. It was easy to find Pinkie since she’s been shaking while hiding in the pot. And get surprised that even without wings Rainbow was able to get to the chandelier with no trouble at all. After the girls have been found Celestia and Luna gather girls to explain to them what happened and why they are here.
“Now that you are found, Luna and I will help explain to you why you are in your castle.” Celestia says.
“Of course princess,” Twilight replies twirling her fingers.
“Well you see, Discord told Princess Twilight about bring a surprise band to the Grand Galloping Gala to perform, but he wanted to be a surprise,” Luna explains.
“But what do the gala have to do with us?” Sunset asks worried.
“Sunset I understand that Princess Twilight told me that you are in a band with the girls, correct?” Celestia interjects.
“Yes,” Sunset answers.
“And also wasn’t Discord who found you in the room,” Luna asks,
“That’s true,” Twilight replies cleaning her glasses.
“Well maybe that can help you understand what Discord did,” Celestia advises.
The girls start to think about what the princesses said, after a short time their eyes widen and figure out what is going on and they are very surprised by it.
“Wait! Are you saying that Discord brought us here to perform for your gala?” Rainbow asks surprisingly.
“Yes,” Luna answers
“Oh!” The girls say plainly.
“Oh my that’s sound like a huge honor,” Applejack says excited.
“That’s great in all, but he should have asked us first,” Twilight says uncertain.
“Indeed, I’m surprised that he was able to get us here without waking anyone of us up,” Rarity replies.
“Yeah no kidding with his chaotic magic, he was able to simply poof us to Equestria without wakening any of us up,” Sunset says annoyed.
“Sunset I’m very sorry that you and your friends got involved in this,”Celestia says sadly.
“It’s okay, besides it’s not your fault this happen,” Sunset replies.
“Yes, but still we should go find Princess Twilight and let her know what happened,” Celestia suggests.
“Indeed. If Princess Twilight found out about this, she’ll get very worried,” Luna replies in a serious tone.
“Indeed, Princess Twilight along with Spike, the girls, and Discord are in the Ballroom so we’ll go there first,” Celestia suggests.
“And then we can get something to eat, right,” Pinkie replies happily.
The girls and the princess plainly look at Pinkie because she wants to eat something. Pinkie also take notice that the girls aren’t understand what Pinkie Pie wants.
“What I’m hungry!” Pinkie whines.
As the girls start to make to the ballroom, Sunset looks very sad when she is walking next to Celestia. She really feels awful for how she acted when she was studying with the princess.
“Princess I’m really sorry for how I acted and… ,” Sunset tries to apologize to Celestia but she put her wing over her to comfort her.
“We’ll worry about the details later, for now try to enjoy yourself okay,” Celestia replies calmly.
Back at the ballroom:
The pony girls are still very shocked that Discord decided to bring Twilight’s Canterlot High friends here without asking them. Twilight is the only one who is very furious with Discord’s actions cause now her friends are lost somewhere in the castle.
“Discord how could you bring them here?!” Twilight screams angrily.
“What? I wanted to have a very special band for the gala, and why not your friends from the other world,” Discord replies.
“Discord you can’t just poof them to Equestria and hope they’ll go along with it,” Applejack says annoyed.
“Yeah Discord that’s totally uncool,” Rainbow says angrily.
“Okay I get it I didn’t think things through good enough,” Discord says annoyed.
“Yes and now we need to find them before they get hurt or attacked by somepony,” Twilight says.
“There no need Twilight,” Celestia voice calls out.
The girls, Discord and Spike turn to see Princess Celestia and Princess Luna enter the room.
“Princess Celestia! What are you doing here?” Twilight asks surprisingly.
“Well Luna and I were checking the dining room and the decorations look great,” Celestia explains calmly.
“Thanks,” Pinkie replies cheerfully with a big smile on her face.
“And while we were in there we found some friends of your,” Luna adds.
“Okay girls you can come out now,” Celestia signals the girls.
Just then Sunset Shimmer and the other reveal themselves to Princess Twilight and her friend. Princess Twilight feels so relieved that she goes up to them to make sure they are alright.
“Sunset Shimmer,” Twilight replies surprisingly.
“Hey Twilight how are you doing?” Sunset says nervously.
The pony girls can’t believe of what they are seeing right now. 7 creature are in Equestria and 6 of them look exactly like them they know about one thing though.
“This is going to be the weirdest gala we ever have,” Rainbow replies worried.
