> The Switch > by Candydash > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > New friends > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a bright and sunny day in ponyville and everypony was enjoying the warmth but the mane 6 were deep in the ever-free forest because the map had told them to go there . "What did we have to come in here for?" Twilight asked, nopony knew why they where sent there... It was the worst place in equestria!!! The six later heard something move behind the bushes. Twilight used her magic to pick up what was making the noise, it looked like some sort of bird but it had no legs or wings. It was just a pink sphere shape... " W-What is this thing!?" asked Twilight. The bird didn't like being called a thing so it squawked at Twilight. "Twilight she has a name!!!" Fluttershy said. "So What is it?!" Twilight asked, ' It's S-Stella..." Fluttershy whimpered, After that more birds jumped out " Are these your Friends?" Fluttershy asked. Stella nodded and squawked in reply. "So what did she say!?" Asked Rainbow Dash. "There names are Dahlia,Wilow, Poppy and Luca!" reply Fluttershy. "CAN WE KEEP THEM TWILIGHT!?! CAN WE!?! HUH!?" Yelled Pinkie pie. "Maybe" Twilight said but then Pinkie did puppy eye's "OK fine!!!" Yelled Twilight. The six agreed to take the bird of there color, Pinkie pie got Stella, Applejack got Dahlia, Rainbow Dash got Luca , Fluttershy got Poppy, Rarity got willow and Twilight got...nothing. "Where's my bird?" Twilight asked as her friends walked off...well she still had Owllicious...but she wanted a bird like her friends now had. Later at her castle Twilight heard a knock at her door she opened it and found a bird just like the one's her friends had!!! And best of all it was purple like her!!! It had a crown to!!! But as soon as she let the bird in it Zapped her with something!!! Just before Twilight blacked out she could see legless green pigs looking in from the window with evil looks on there face's. Twilight soon woke up but everything looked much taller than her...she then found a mirror on the floor. she looked at herself and screamed... > Help Needed!!! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight was the bird she let in!!! She looked up and saw that the bird was in her body!!! " Can't believe fooled you so easily..." She Said. Twilight was confused...How did she not know that the bird was evil!?! " Now I have your magic and your body!!! everyone can goodbye to Twilight and hello to Gale..." Now Twilight was really upset How did Gale know her name!? And how did she get back to her own body!?! Gale took her crown away from Twilight " Better run YOUR FRIENDS ARE NEXT!!!" Gale yelled, Twilight ran to Fluttershy's house to warn them about Gale. At Fluttershy's house the 5 girls were playing with their birds before they all herd loud banging on the door. "I'll get it!!" Fluttershy said. When she opened the door Twilight was there panting and tearing up, Stella wanted to see want was going on so she hopped on Fluttershy's Head and yelled at Twilight thinking she was Gale. Twilight knew she didn't understand so she told the two what happened and that Gale was trying to swap them. "TWILIGHT!? IS THAT YOU!?" Fluttershy asked yelling. Twilight nodded and started to cry her eye's out. Fluttershy hugged Twilight and put her on her back then ran inside. "Girls!!! You have to help!!!" Fluttershy yelled but none of them knew it was Twilight. "Aw...what a cute birdie!! Lets give it to Twilight!" Pinkie said. "Ya she will love it!!! " Rainbow dash said. This made Twilight cry again Fluttershy soon yelled " GIRLS!! that IS TWILIGHT!!! " the girl's froze in fear. Soon after this Gale bust down the door and zapped the ponies and birds as twilight scearmed at the sight. Twilight tried to save her friends but was stopped by Gale upset Twilight bit her to get down. But when she fell it was to late.... > A new life. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Her friends were swapped just like her...Rarity was the first to wake up. She wondered why Twilight looked so tall...she was still a bird after all!!! Then she looked in a mirror and Screamed, She was in Willow's body!!! Rarity dropped the mirror started to cry. This woke up the other 3 girl's. Rainbow dash soon wondered why everyone looked so tall so she looked in the mirror Rarity dropped and freaked out. She was in Luca's body!!! She started to yell at Twilight telling her to fix this. Pinkie Pie and Apple Jack woke up next. They saw themselves Applejack was Dahlia and Pinkie pie was Stella!! Applejack screamed while Pinkie Pie looked all happy. Fluttershy was already awake but she was hiding behind her body. She was in Poppy's body...The 4 looked up to see the birds in there bodies!!! Rainbow dash started to peak at her body's leg trying to get her body back but failed. Rarity was just freaking out telling Twilight to fix the swap, Apple Jack was pulling Rainbow Dash away from her body's leg and Pinkie Pie was just happy. Twilight started to cry because she failed to save her friends. The other five felt sorry for her so they hugged her and told her it wasn't her fault. Later, they where all at the castle trying to find a way to fix the swap. It was night already and they still couldn't find a spell!!!! Soon they gave up for the night. Twilight lowered her head and said something in bird the others never thought they would hear, She said that they might need to start a new life...The five where upset but they did what twilight wanted and went home... > Mud Puddles > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was dark outside and the group was having trouble seeing the path. Willow then heard Rarity scream. " What's wrong?!" Willow said. She sounded worried but then she looked at her hoof. It had mud on it... She then looked at Rarity who was panting in fear. She stepped in the mud puddle again and Rarity started crying. " Come on. Its just mud!!!" Willow said stepping in the the mud puddle again. Rarity then pecked her on the back of the head. " What was that for!? " Willow asked. Rarity pointed at the mud. "OH COME ON ITS MUD!!!" Willow said before continuing home. Luca was having trouble flying to Dash's house. Rainbow Dash got upset and pecked Luca on the neck and made him fly up to there house. Fluttershy was whimpering all the way back home and Pinkie Pie was jumping on Stella's back some of the way home. Twilight was up late to trying to find a spell to fix this but fell asleep. The next morning the others where on there way to Twilight's castle to see if they could swap back yet but then Willow stepped in another Mud puddle. Rarity started to scream but Willow put her hoof on her beak before she could even squawk, " NOT. A. SOUND." Willow said Rarity stayed quiet after that. They all went inside hopping that Twilight could fix it, but they saw Twilight still looking at book's. She soon put down the book she was holding and said in bird that she COULDN'T FIX IT. The others asked her why so she told them that what Gale did was permanent... they could never fix it... > New in town > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The mane 6 where all really upset, they didn't want to be birds forever!!! This was the worst day EVER!!! But they knew that this was their life now. Later at Rarity's house, Willow was trying to calm Rarity down. Rarity started crying as soon as they got home... " Come on Rarity!!! Its not that bad!!!" Willow said. Rarity squawked at her, It sounded like she was saying that it was that bad then she pulled her hat over her face and started to cry again. Willow lifted up Rarity's Hat and nuzzled Rarity to make her feel better. Rarity stopped crying and smiled at Willow but she still was upset and started to wimpier,she wanted to be a pony again!!! Willow hugged her " It will be ok Rarity...I won't let anyone hurt you while we're swapped... I promise. " Willow said. Rarity knew that Willow would keep her promise and nuzzled up to her. Later they where walking around ponyville, soon Willow bumped into a another pony " Oh my gosh!!! are you ok!?! " Willow asked " Y-Yes..." The pony said. The two soon saw that this pony was a ALICORN !!! " A-Are you a princess!?! " Willow asked. " No...I'm just a Alicorn" The pony said. Rarity groaned, she had hoped that the pony was a princess that could Switch them back!!! " RARITY!!! " Willow yelled. " Rarity? what a nice name!!! " The pony said " So What is your name " she asked. " It's willow..." Willow replied. " My name is Candy Dash " The pony said. " What brings you here? " Willow asked " I felt like some ponies swapped bodies with their new pets... Have you seen anypony being swapped the last two days!?" Candy asked. " N-nope!!! nobo...nopony!!! Nopony at all!!! " Willow said. Rarity started squawking trying to tell Candy that they where swapped and that she need to switch them back!!! " Ok then!!! See you later!!! " Candy said,then she left. Rarity Got really mad at Willow and Started to Yell at her. "I-I'm sorry!!! I just can't tell anybody yet!!! I'm too scared!!! " Willow said. Rarity sighed, she hated being a bird!!! Nopony could even understand her!!! She hoped that she could find a way to tell Candy about the switch... > Together again > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The two had to tell the others what they had seen!!! Later at the castle Willow was telling them about Candy Dash. " For some reason she had a eye-patch on..." Willow said. " Did you tell her we were swapped??? " Dahlia asked "Err...no..." Willow said " WHAT!? " the others said. Rarity face plamed, why didn't Willow tell Candy about the swap just cause she was scared?! Now Rarity wanted to be a pony more then ever!!! And she knew the other 5 felt the same way. " We need to find her again!!!! " Stella yelled. " But she flew up in the clouds!!! " Willow said. Well 3 of us can't fly and the other 3 of us can't fly very good...Yep she's gone... " Dahlia said. " Dang it how do we swap back now!?! " Stella asked. Twilight started squawking trying to remind them that she said the swap was permanent but then she remembered nopony but Poppy { who wasn't listening } and her friends understand her now that she's a bird. Twilight didn't want to be a bird any more!!! Around ponyville Candy was still looking for the swapped ponies not knowing that she found two of the 12 already. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were looking for the cutie marks, Candy saw them and asked them " Have you seen anypony being swapped!? " She asked. " No " The three answered. Later that night Twilight was in her castle reading before the doors where busted down. It was Gale. Gale grabbed Twilight and said one thing that made Twilight scared " Your coming with me... " Gale said as she put Twilight in a cage . Twilight started to squawk for help but was pulled out the door. The next morning the others came to see her but only came to a empty castle. Willow found a note on the floor, It said " I got Twilight. Come and find her before I do something horrible to her.-Gale." Willow showed the note to the others, they had to save Twilight!!! The mane five freaked out and ran out the door to find Twilight. " Wait for us!!! " Willow yelled off to them. But it was to late, The girls where already out looking for her. > The Fight > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The mane five were running all around ponyville trying to find Twilight. They almost gave up but they soon came to a large cave. They went inside and herd Twilight screaming and crying. The girls ran into a room in the cave and found Twilight in the cage Gale had put her in. Twilight was happy to see them but they couldn't unlock the cage she was trapped in. Twilight started to cry again. The others tried to calm her down but with no luck. Gale heard her crying and ran into the room. " I see you came to find her but I think you forgot...YOUR STILL SWITCHED!!!! " Gale yelled. They did forget!!! Yet they tried to fight her but there was one problem...they didn't know how to use the birds powers!!! Gale use magic to blast a hole near them. NOW they where scared!!! The five started to scream and ran to hide. Gale started to walk around to find them and soon found Rarity hiding behind a large rock and blasted the rock down. Rarity froze in fear as Gale blasted magic at her. Rarity waited and then wondered why she didn't fell the blast hit her... She opened her eyes and saw a force-field around her in her magic color!!! She looked up and couldn't believe it!!! Willow was there using her magic!!! She saved her life!!!! " STAY AWAY FROM HER!!!' Willow yelled. Rarity saw that the group was back together!!! Willow picked up Rarity. " Rarity are you ok!? " Willow asked. Rarity nodded. "Good...now lets do this!!! " Willow said. They started to fight but Gale blasted them back. They where hurt and couldn't fight. Gale was about to blow them up but another pony crashed in through the top...IT WAS CANDY DASH!!! "Don't you dare hurt them you monster!!! " Candy yelled. " BRING IT ON!!! " Gale said. The two started to fight but Candy got shot down... The group wondered if she was ok so they crowded around her, " Willow, take my eyepatch!!!" Candy said as soon as willow took the eyepatch Candy's eyes opened and the group gasped. One of Candy eye's where bright red with a scar down the eyelid. It started to glow red and Candy's coat started to get darker. Her brown mane started to turn black and red and dark red smoke came out of her eyes. She shot out at gale and smashed her deep into the floor. Candy Dash started beating Gale up and was going to blow her up before the group pulled her away. "Candy calm down!!! " Willow said. Candy did calm down and returned to her normal self. " Candy, I just you to know where the one that are swapped...and it can't be fixed." Willow said " You might get used to it..." Candy said back Later at Princess Celestia's castle the group stood with Gale. " I think you need to learn about friendship. Right Luna?" Princess Celestia asked. Luna nodded. " You will write to me every time you learn a new lesson." Celestia said. Gale agreed to do it. soon the group knew they could get used to this after all...THE END.
