This story is a sequel to When Ponies Fly
Earth-pony Twilight Sparkle and her friend Rainbow Dash visit a realm of forest and magic. And find that all is not quite right, in the place where the unicorns dwell...
For more of this AU, check out the entire series, starting with:
Oh yeah. These things. Boy am I glad Hasbro went the way they did with G5, and not with whatever these designs were meant to be.

Now, know that this is MY opinion, but I personally like these designs. They are just filled with so much wonder and creativity in my eyes that I personally find it kinda sad that these designs were never used, but, again, that’s my opinion.
Well that's a rude greeting.
Oh so this is the time they actually meet Spike for the first time
Well I see things continue to go all pear shaped.
Hmm I mean it could be possible they're probably different creatures out there not just ponies I still want to know what and how does this traveling World works
And things are nicely on the up and up.
11213519
Agreed. Also yet another solid 9/10 story.
I've gotta say I love what you did with the concept art! Loved the original one shot, and this one did even better! If you ever do decide to write a much bigger story, I can say confidently that you'll have a long line of support!

So we're back to Twilight and Rainbow traveling through worlds which I'm surprised Pinkie Pie or Applejack didn't come along oh well maybe next time anyway it looks like they made it to the Unicorn world which they have no idea until they met a dragon named Spike and then once they got to that place apparently the unicorns are not that very welcoming in fact they just straight-up ignore them and it looks like some of the royalties looks like they're very hostile to strangers I wonder what Twilight and the others are going to do
And there it is lol oh spike
If Only They Knew well then again this is a different alternate universe so anything's possible
11213519
is there a reason they were never used ? its obvious from the designs this was supposed to a reboot of friendship is magic
Wow this is a very interesting situation so it looks like Twilight Rainbow and Spike were taken to the castle to meet Princess Rarity in charge of the unicorns and she was very interest to The Outsiders but it looks like the advisor sorcerer's name Aegagrus had very different opinion about The Outsiders but Rarity have to talk with the business and she told them to give them a Hospitality but unfortunately the sorcerer have different plans with them and apparently he's a very troublesome and now the three of them are in the dungeon but Twilight told spike to get out and try to find somebody even though they just basically let him to escape so he won't be trapped with them but it looks like Spike found a pony name Fluttershy and it turns out that she's also a princess who live outside from the Kingdom so after that Rarity found out that they were in the prison and it looks like the sorcery convince everybody that she was brainwashed by The Outsiders so they put her in the dungeon as well so now all three of the ponies are trap but spike is out there hopefully getting somebody to help them

I love this AU! It seems like a lot of fun and has potential! Looking forward to more stories.
Loved it. Absolutely fantastic.
There's never one time she never use any teleportation before
Awesome
Amazing. Keep going I beg of you.
I say it now. Twilight's next project is building the Mirror Gate.
What an amazing story! This setup has a potential to expand into a full season series.
Okay so it looks like Spike tried to convince Fluttershy to help his friends to get them out of there she had no idea how in the world is she going to do this but she wanted to do this because not only helping those ponies but also wanting to see Rarity so with that they're on the way and not too long they finally met up with the others but there is no way to get them self out of jail the only way they have to do this it's just stop Aegagrus but it looks like Twilight has an idea so she asked rainbow and Spike to go out there to find any spells that will help them despite that she's an earth pony she's a smart one and it looks like she finally found one now she just needs to crack the code to do this hopefully this will help
"Behold! CPU multithreading!"
"CPU?"
"Cooperating Paired Unicorns."
Outstanding work. I hope you explore this setting more in the future; it's been delightful thus far. (And the moment Twilight gets some way to harness magic herself, look out multiverse.)

They may have been very early concepts for G5 before Hasbro decided to go the route they did. Or, because these were leaked illegally, Hasbro abandoned them.
Hmm... one thing I did feel was missing was one of them noting that this world was more similar to Twilight's than Rainbow's, and wondering if it might also be home to earth ponies. (Twilight could probably go off on a whole lot of speculation about world-templates, too.)
(For that matter, if all the worlds know of dragons, they might well be the world-travel pioneers.)
Are there gemstones in Rainbow's world, or did she read about them in Daring Do?
And it seems Ponish is an inborn rather than learned language - or Twilight did all her geeking out over "wait a minute, how can we understand each other?" between first.
11213779
Well, that's probably exactly the reason - when they decided they didn't want to go that route, the designs became redundant.
Whoa ok I was not expecting that at all
Ohhh Here Comes The Rage Fluttershy at this time with magic that's even worse for him
Og my gosh it's the great and powerful Trixie figured she showed up sooner or later
Wow this was a very unexpected turn of events here but a very nice story so it looks like they are prepared to strike back and get Rarity castles back and after getting through all the guards and everything they finally stopped him but that sorcerer was no pony he was that great villain of all My Little Pony series grogar and he was about to prepare to attack but thanks to Twilight and her knowledge they all encountered his spell and everything and he was pretty angry that Twilight an earth pony can defeat him and it looks like he pushed spike out of the way how to get to Twilight but unfortunately Fluttershy did not take it to kindly to that and she went to rage mode but it looks like he made his Sweet Escape through the portal and something tells me this is not the last time we ever see him again so after Fluttershy come down it looks like Twilight had an idea to combine both of their Kingdom together so they can help each other out which Rarity and Fluttershy agreed to that and it looks like everything turned out pretty well for them and it looks like spike is going to be living with Twilight once again this was a pretty interesting story keep up the good work
plz make moar
The moment I saw this sequel I had to read it. And I did! It was good! I hope we'll see more of Twilight Sparkle the earth pony and friends. She's yet to come across Pinkie after all! And Grogar is still around of course.
Fluttershy went full photonegative Galadriel and I 100% approve XD

And that's why we love him~
This is not the princess you're looking for, try another Castle.😁

Actually, When Ponies Fly did include Pinkie Pie. I suggest you reread it if you don’t remember.
Marvelous work. I'm surprised there doesn't seem to be a group for this kind of AU yet.
When a fanfiction based on earlier concepts of a at best very mediocre show ends up better than the actual show, it makes you ponder.
Before anyone gets mad, I'm not judging people who like G5. I just don't like it (nor the last two seasons or the movie of G4), let's move on.
Well, then that just raises questions as to how Spike managed to get here, especially seeing he seems to have no recollection of such a trip.
And she'd know.
...well then. Something amiss is definitely afoot in the land of the unicorns.
Well, that sounds like a hook for a sequel to me.
Seriously, this has been such a great read, I'm sort of jealous I can't be the one who gets to have all the fun of writing it too. Do hope we see more stories for this universe here soon!
Huh. This must be the most causal dictatorship ever if they openly let ponies call them one.
Loved it. Loved it all. But ummm, how they gonna keep him fed?
This was ABSOLUTELY phenomenal, an amazing read. Also, that 'Castle of the Two Princesses' reference - ugh, had me sitting there almost tearing up. I love your characterizations here, and the introduction of Grogar as a potential antagonist/arching plot device is making me feel like you're setting up for sequels! I really hope you are - I wanna explore so much more of this g4-g5 world you've set up!
Good sequel... Any chance of another sequel? Maybe alicorn land? Or Dragon Land?
Sorry I took so long to getting around to reading and reviewing this, but I've been off-line for the better part of three days. Anyway, VERY good job on this Actionized Sequel to your previous story in this series. Love the work that went into the exchanges, characterizations, action, main wrap-up and possible sequel set-up in all the right places. Very much appreciated the further discussion of the differences between Earth pony and Pegasus civilizations (and, yeah, got a laugh out of Rainbow's reaction to the fact that the Daring Do stories Twilight shared with her were fictional [or, at least, TWILIGHT CURRENTLY THINKS they are fictional]) as well as the first meetings with Spike, Rarity and Fluttershy. Definitely appreciated Spike's dialogue with Fluttershy explaining certain details of unicorn society (as well as Rarity and Fluttershy BOTH being princesses; just in different territories). Absolutely loved the teamwork that went into that Jafar-wannabe's defeat as well as Twilight getting the idea to help turn things around, that probable sequel-set-up cameo by Trixie and Twilight introducing her parents to Spike.
Definitely looking forward to AJ and Pinkie getting introduced to Rarity and Fluttershy eventually as well as the possibility of the group as a whole finding species other than ponies.

Yes, I vote for another sequel.
