> Go,Go Pony Rangers! > by SapphireRose87 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter One > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jason sat hard at work on his computer. After weeks of working he had finally found the solution… Time Travel…  Earlier in the month, Jason had made contact with a planet called Equis. And on this planet was said to be horses. Yes, that's right, colorful talking horses! One of them that He came in contact with, was said to be a huge majestic white horse named Princess Celestia. And she said she was ruler of one of the countries of the planet called Equestria.  So, after the meteorite hit, Jason had been working on his plan to send some Humans to the planet Equis. If his theory was correct, then Jason should be able to send people one thousand years into the future and they would arrive on the planet Equis before any one died.  When Jason's Time Machine was finally built, he had selected six women to enter into the Time Machine after he had tested it of course. But here's the catch, the women that he selected to send one thousand years into the future had to be encased in something in order to survive. They had to be encased in ice… * * * Aanya had no idea what she was doing. She had volunteered to be sent to this strange planet called Equis. While her boyfriend Jason had a great idea that would save the Human race, Aanya remained pessimistic. As she wanted to go to Equis, she wondered how she would be able to fulfill her duties has a Power Ranger. The Yellow Power Ranger to be specific.  Aanya always loved to sing because singing made herself feel better. So she pulled out her guitar and sang a joyful song. It was about being selected as a Power Ranger and going to the planet Equis.  Just then, there was a knock at the door. It was her mother.  "You doing okay?" asked mom as she sat down on her bed. "I see you have your guitar out, you must be feeling some sort of pressure. Huh?"  "Yes," said Aanya. "I'm just worried that's all. Got a lot of What If's going through my mind."  "Oh…" said mother. She seemed to be thinking about the situation and how to comfort her daughter.  But Aanya wasn't looking for sympathy. She was looking for reassurance.       "It's okay," said Aanya, "you don't have to comfort me, I'm not looking for sympathy. I can see it in your eyes that's what you want to do."  "I'm sorry," said mother, "it's just that I know you have a lot of pressure on your shoulders and I just want to help you with that." Aanya sighed, "Welp, we'll see what happens tomorrow."  And tomorrow was when they would be sent to Equis frozen in a block of ice. * * * So the day came to be frozen in a block of ice and sent to a strange planet one thousand years into the future. Jason even had a small ceremony for the women that were going and it was only with close friends and family.  Then it was time. As Aanya stepped into the chamber that would freeze her in a block of ice, her thoughts began to wander. Has the chamber started to fill up with water medicine was given to Aanya through an IV; and she was put to sleep. Hopefully, this would be the solution to humanity's future...  * * * In a cave not too far from Ponyville, the six brave Humans that were sent to Equestria sat frozen in individual blocks of ice, waiting to be thawed out.  Two Ponies of a royal pedigree approached the cave. The ponies names were Princess Celestia and Princess Twilight. Princess Celestia knew about the Humans that been sent to Equis in a block of ice, and she thought it was time to thaw them out.  Princess Celestia paused at the entrance of the cave and smiled at her student and best friend Princess Twilight.   "Well, this is it!" said Princess Celestia. "This is it?" asked Princess Twilight. "I can't see a thing! It's so dark!" "The Humans are hidden deep inside the cave." said Celestia. "I made sure of it when they landed here, back when I first started ruling."   "Humans," said Princess Twilight, "like the ones you made me study about?" "Yes," said Princess Celestia, "these are the very ones, and you'll finally get to meet them!"   "Oh," said Princess Twilight. "So why are we doing this again? My friends and I are strong enough to protect Equestria, why do we need them?" "Because a time will come when you need more than just your friends to protect Equestria." said Princess Celestia. "Why?" said Princess Twilight. "Is there something you're not telling me?" And yes, Princess Celestia was something she not telling Princess Twilight for a lot of reasons.   "I'm afraid that very soon, we'll have another enemy that even pony magic will Not be strong enough to protect Equestria." said Princess Celestia.  That was Princess Celestia's story, and she was sticking to it! Princess Twilight sighed and lit up her horn to give her some light as they entered the cave. As they went deeper into the cave, Princess Twilight noticed that her surroundings had changed. The further they went into the cave the colder the environment became. Princess Twilight didn't know this, but they had been walking for over an hour or maybe even a day at least. It felt like they were walking forever!  "Why is it so cold in here?" asked Princess Twilight. "Where are we?" "It's because we're on the outskirts of the Crystal Empire." said Princess Celestia.  "What!" said Princess Twilight. "This cave is an entrance to the Crystal Empire?" "No," said Princess Celestia, "it's not an entrance to the Crystal Empire, because there's no exit to this cave except where we came in."  "Oh…" said Princess Twilight. "I think it's time we thaw out these Humans, don't ya think?" said Princess Celestia. "If you say so." said Princess Twilight. "Now," said Princess Celestia, "stand back and shield your eyes please." Princess Twilight did as she was told and Princess Celestia then took a deep breath and stood in front of the blocks of ice.  "It is time for you to un-thaw!" said Princess Celestia. Princess Celestia then stood in front of the blocks of ice and her horn lit up. Then, one beam of light that divided up into six beams of light, shot from Princess Celestia's horn.  Has the ice blocks started to thaw, something happened, the Humans that were in the blocks of ice, started to turn into ponies! When they were finally un-thawed, the six Humans that were in the blocks of ice were fully Pony! "What the-" said Princess Twilight. "What happened?" asked Princess Celestia.  All six of the Humans, now turned into ponies, lay asleep on the floor.  "Hum," said Princess Celestia "maybe I need to cast an awakening spell?"  Then Princess Celestia's horn lit up and shot six beams of light at the sleeping ponies. One by one the sleepy ponies opened their eyes and looked around.  "Where are we?" asked Yellow Pony.  "Hello there Humans, who are now ponies," said Princess Celestia, "welcome to Equestria!"                    > Chapter Two > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's cold… thought Aanya, when she first woke up. Did I hear where we are right? Equestria? That can't be right. I was just- I don't remember where I was. I can't remember anything! "Equestria?" said Aanya has she opened her eyes. "What the-" "Please, I can explain! Your friend Jason from Earth sent you here one thousand years into the future through time travel. " said Princess Celestia. "Well that can't be true." sad Blue Pony. "Right Aanya?" "You still remember my name?" asked Aanya. "Of course I do!" said Blue Pony. “So, what are your names, if you don’t mind me asking?” Princess Celestia said.  “Aanya!” Aanya said. “Meredith!” Blue Pony said.  “Letitia!” Pink Pony said.  “Candis!” Orange Pony said. “Gritt!” White Pony said.  “Beatrice!” Purple Pony said. Princess Celestia paused, "Hum, Aanya, Meredith, Letitia, Candis, Gritt and Beatrice! If I'm correct, those names all correspond with the elements of Harmony!" "That's correct!" said Aanya "We were named that way on purpose by our parents," said Letitia "in hopes that we would become one of the Power Rangers one day." "Power Rangers?" said Princess Twilight "What's that?" "You know," said Gritt, "Power Rangers, the legendary warriors of Earth?" "Never heard of them," said Princess Twilight "and believe me I've done a lot of study of Earth." "Well we're not documented on paper duh!" said Candis "That's because we have to keep the Power Rangers a secret!" "Wait a minute!" said Princess Twilight "Now I remember! On Earth there's a TV show called Power Rangers, is that show based off of you guys?" "Yes," said Aanya "but the show is actually incorrect. That show has boys has Power Rangers too but, for as long as I can remember, the Power Rangers have only been female." "Interesting…" said Princess Celestia.  Princess Celestia appeared to be lost in thought or spaced out or something because there was a long silence. Then Princess Twilight spoke up. "Your Highness?" said Princess Twilight. "Highness!" said Meredith "Are you we talking to the Queen of Equestria?"  "Oh no," said Princess Twilight "there are only princesses that rule Equestria. My name is Princess Twilight and this is Princess Celestia. It's very nice to meet you." "Wow," said Aanya "the rulers of Equestria! What an honor!" Then all six of the Power Rangers bowed to Princess Celestia and Princess Twilight. * * * After the Power Rangers had bowed to Princess Celestia and Princess Twilight, they got to their feet. They then made the two day walk out from the outskirts of the Crystal Empire back to the Ever Free Forest. As soon as they got to the Ever Forest, they were met with a Changeling Army! "Changelings!" said Princess Twilight, her eyes were wide with fear.  Then Princess Twilight started light up her horn to do a spell but Princess Celestia stopped her. "Your magic won't work on them," said Princess Celestia, "they've been modified.” "I'm sensing something's different about them." said Princess Twilight, after she used a spell to scan them.  "Leave this to the Power Rangers," said Princess Celestia, "they can handle this." "But your Highness," said Aanya, "we haven't had time to train!" "Well there's no time!" said Princess Celestia. Princess Celestia then teleported a couple of objects to the EverFree Forest, it was the Power Rangers transformation gear. "How will that work?" said Meredith "We're ponies now remember?" "It will still work." said Princess Celestia. "But," said Gritt "how do you know?" "I know," said Princess Celestia "because they're connected to you. I will explain later. Now hurry! Transform!" "Alright guys," said Beatrice, "it's morphin time!" The Power Rangers then picked up their transformation gear and started to call on their powers.  "Yellow Ranger come forth!" said Aanya. "Blue Ranger come forth!" said Meredith. "Pink Ranger come forth!" said Letitia. "Orange Ranger come forth!" said Candis. "White Ranger come forth!" said Gritt. "And Red Ranger come forth!" said Beatrice. Then all the Power Rangers in sync said, "Power Rangers, transformation!" What happened next was a sight to behold! The Power Rangers didn't transform as ponies, they transformed into Humans! Their front legs became arms and hands and their back legs became legs and feet. Their muzzles and head, just became a regular head with no muzzle.  "Woa!" said Princess Twilight. "Humans…" Princess Celestia smiled, "Yes I know, quite impressive don't you think?" "Yes," said Princess Twilight, "yes indeed!" "Alright guys," said Beatrice, "let's eat these guys for lunch!" "Oh, oh can we do breakfast too?" asked Letitia. "I'm hungry!" "We'll deal with that later Letitia," said Aanya, "but right now, it's butt kicking time!" The fight then was spectacular! As it went on Princess Twilight watched in awe of the Power Rangers. The Power Rangers used various weapons to fight the Changelings to disable them one by one. As the Power Rangers kept fighting, all of the sudden Princess Twilight then noticed something. There was music playing in the background and she recognized the song, It was the Power Rangers theme song.  As the Power Rangers kept fighting the song got faster and faster. Then, as the last Changeling was defeated, the Power Rangers disappeared into thin air.  * * * The Power Rangers did not disappear, but where teleported to the Command Center back on Earth. Their robot named Alpha came to greet them. But the Power Rangers were in their pony form not Human.  "Power Rangers!" said Alpha. "It's so great to see you!" "Hi Alpha," said Aanya. "It's me Aanya!" Alpha then paused because the Power Rangers were now in pony form.  "What happened to you?" asked Alpha. "We got transformed into ponies when Princess Celestia unfroze us." said Candis.  Then suddenly, they heard a voice from behind them. "Rangers! It is so good to see you again!" "Zork!" said Letitia, "I'm so happy to see you!" They turned around and saw him, it was Zork in all his glory! Zork looked very human like but he wasn't human. He stood about six feet tall and wore a black suit of armour and a purple cape. He wore this because he was royalty where he came from. He was also appointed Guardian of Earth. When Zork went up to the Power Rangers, he gave them a great big hug.  "Rangers," said Zork, "we unite once again, but you are in grave danger." "How Zork?" said Beatrice. "There is a new enemy but it's not from Earth." said Zork, "It is a young prince called a Changeling." "A Changeling?" said Aanya, "What's  that?" "A Changeling is a mystical creature from Equestria." said Zork, "He is your enemy now and you must fight him in your pony form!" "But why?" said Gritt. "Because the Ponies of Equestria are powerless against him." said Zork, "This is your new mission. And you won't be answering to me most of the time, you'll be answering to Princess Twilight of Equestria." "What?" said all the Power Rangers. "So what happened to Earth?" said Meredith. "Earth no longer needs protection because Humans no longer exist." said Zork, "You… Are the only ones left. The innocent Ponies of Equestria need your protection now. And, since you are in pony form, you will fit in well." "But what if we change back to human?" said Candis. "You need not worry about that for you will get your cutie marks in due time." said Zork. 'What's a Cutie Mark?" said Letitia.  "A Cutie Mark says what your special talent will be in Equestria." said Zork, "However if you wind up getting a Cutie Mark, you will not be able to change back into Human. But you will be more powerful than you are now." Little did Zork know how true that statement was.          > Chapter Three > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Princess Celestia and Princess Twilight stood in awe of the Power Rangers. Princess Celestia was the first to speak. “Well now," said Princess Celestia, "your first battle here in Equestria was spectacular!" "I'll say!" said Princess Twilight clapping her hooves.  "Yeah boy!" said Aanya. "Now," said Princess Celestia, "there is another matter I must attend to. I leave you in Princess Twilight's care."  And with a bow Princess Celestia took off into the air back towards Canterlot.  *    *    * Aanya and the rest of the Power Rangers watched as Princess Twilight paced back and forth.  Princess Twilight was thinking to herself on what to do with the Power Rangers. Then, she had an idea. “Oh, I know!” Princess Twilight said.   "Your Highness?" asked Aanya as she raised an eyebrow. "What is it Princess Twilight?" asked Letitia. "You could stay at the castle!" said Princess Twilight, "And, you could be my  students just like Starlight Glimmer was! Oh, this is so exciting!"  "Okay?" said Meredith. "Does that mean we have to go to school?" growled Gritt. "Well," said Princess Twilight, "you'll be my private students, just like Starlight was. And, I along with you'll have a place to stay and I'll teach you lessons on friendship!" "Okay?" asked Candis. "She's a nutcase!" whispered Meredith into Aanya's ear. "No," said Aanya, "I don't think so." Princess Twilights ears then twitched and swiveled in Aanya and Meredith's direction. “I heard that.” Princess Twilight said. "Oh..”  said Meredith too afraid to speak. Princess Twilight said, "If you don't like this idea, you can always try to find yourself a place to stay."  "We like that idea Your Highness," Aanya then nudged Meredith with her hoof. "don't we Meredith?"  Meredith then bowed her head and sighed, "Yes, I like this idea…"  "You know," said Princess Twilight, "it's not going to be easy, but we can do this! The power of friendship can be very powerful!" *    *    * Little did anyone know that deep underneath the Throne Room, there was a different kind of room. This room had two huge computers set up like they would be back on Earth.  Princess Celestia turned on both computers and the picture was a little bit staticky at first, but then it became clearer. And on the computer screen was none other than Zork the Power Rangers leader. "Zork," said Princess Celestia, "Zork, are you there?" "Yes my Princess," said Zork, "I am here." "I was wondering about something…" said Princess Celestia. "What is it?" asked Zork.   "Why are the Power Rangers ponies?" said Princess Celestia. "Because I enchanted their blocks of ice that they would turn into ponies." said Zork.  "What!" said Princess Celestia, "Why?" "Don't you think it would be easier for them to fit into Equestria if they were ponies?" said Zork. "Hum," said Princess Celestia, "I never thought of it that way."  "Is that all you wanted to talk to me about?" asked Zork.  "Yes…" said Princess Celestia. "That was all…" Actually, Princess Celestia wanted to ask Zork many other questions but the questions were out of far for the Power Rangers. But, she kept her anxiety in check and did not ask Zork anything else.  "Well, if that's it," said Zork, "then I must go there is something urgent that I must attend to." "Goodbye Zork…" said Princess Celestia. "Goodbye," said Zork, "and may the power protect you." "May the power protect you…" said Princess Celestia. *    *    * The next day Aanya woke up to screaming. It took her a moment to clear her head when she realized it was just Letitia singing. "Good morning! Good morning! I love to say good morning!" sang Letitia, "I love to say good morning to you, and you, and you!"  Aanya ears twitched and ached from Letitias singing. She then realized that ponies have very sensitive ears. "Shut up!" Aanya yelled as she covered her ears.  "Wake up sleepy head!" said Letitia. For as long as Aanya had known Letitia she had always been hyper in the morning. It was like Letitia started her mornings with a bowl full of sugar.  Aanya growled, "Why are you always this hyper in the morning? It's too early for that!"  "Aw come on Aanya," said Letitia, "cheer up it's a bright sunny day." "A bright sunny day in place that you know nothing about." said Gritt. All of the Power Rangers now slept in the same room and the room was very spacious. And each of the Power Rangers had their own beds too. Just then, there was a knock on the door.  "Come in!" sang Letitia. "Letitia!" said Gritt and Aanya. "What?" said Letitia. The door then opened and in the doorway stood a small dragon stood about four feet tall. His scales were purple and he had green spikes coming out of his head.  "Uh hello," said the dragon, "my name is Spike and Princess Twilight wants to see you in the throne room." "A talking dragon!" said Aanya, "Oh and he's so cute!" "Well then," said Spike, "I'm here to escort you to the throne room. This castle is so big, I would hate for you to get lost."  "Aw hes so sweet," said Aanya, "and look at those cute little wings he has!" Spike blushed and smiled at that comment. "So," said Spike, "to the throne room? Has soon as you're ready of course."  "Okay." said Aanya. And without another word, Spike closed the door and waited outside.  *    *    * Oh good!" said Princess Twilight, "You're awake, are you ready for your first lesson?"  "Sure!" said Letitia. "Let's start with the Elements of Harmony." said Princess Twilight "What are the Elements of Harmony?" asked Candis "Good question Candis," said Princess Twilight "the Elements of Harmony are different stones that the Pillars created. And the Elements of Harmony are based on the Elements of Friendship. There's Laughter, Kindness, Generosity, Honesty, Loyalty and Magic. The Elements of Harmony by me and my friends to protect Equestria by channeling our friendship." said Princess Twilight. "Cool!" said Gritt. Princess Twilight then tilted her head after that comment was made. "What does the word "cool" mean?" said Princess Twilight. "It means awesome, great, wonderful." said Beatrice. "Oh that's great," said Princess Twilight,, "I mean cool!"  At that the Power Rangers and Princess Twilight all fell out laughing. The Power Rangers didn't realize it, but they had a lot to learn about being a pony. > Chapter Four > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prince Auris smiled a nasty smile. His plans were falling into place. Phase One of his plan had worked. This was because he was the one that sent the meteorite to Earth, wiping out most of humanity.  When Prince Auris found out about the Power Rangers he was angry. Why? It was because this was one more thing that would get in his way to taking over Equestria.  Prince Auris had once been apart of Queen Chrysalis hive. He left the hive because he felt that Queen Chrysalis was not doing a good job of running it. She had almost succeeded in taking over Equestria but that was an almost. And almost isn’t victory!  So Prince Auris had resigned his life to live amongst the ponies for years. He was tried of their silly little holidays and the singing! Singing most of the time made him want to sing along. And he hated that. Sometimes the happiness around him was weighing heavily on his soul. As if he had a soul. And speaking of singing, right outside his door a pony named Pinkie Pie had started singing her smile song. Which, this song never made him smile. It made him cringe in agony.  Looking through his spyglass through an open window Prince Auris sighed. He continued to hear the smile song over and over again. It was enough to drive him batshit crazy!  “Ugh,” said Prince Auris, “ponies and their stupid singing! It’s all about love and sunshine and rainbows with them. Not any longer!” Just then there was a knock on the door. Praise the Queen! Thought Prince Auris. In came Prince Auris soon to be subjects. The ponies names were Crystal Velvet and Walnut.  “Hello Windfall!” Walnut said.  “What was so important that you needed us here?” Crystal Velvet said.  “I want to show you something.” Prince Auris said.  Prince Auris then changed into his Changeling form and Crystal Velvet and Walnut gasped.  “Changeling!” Crystal Velvet screamed. She started to run but Prince Auris had already locked the door.  “We won’t be doing any of that now!” Prince Auris said. “Windfall,” said Walnut, “what’s going on?” Prince Auris sighed, “I”m a Changeling as your friend Crystal Velvet here just said. I need you to help me get Phase 2 of my plan going. And my name’s not Windfall, it’s Prince Auris. And you will be my new subjects!” “No we won’t!” Crystal Velvet said. “Yes you will,” said Prince Auris, “because I know where your families live. And I will kill each and everyone of them if you don’t cooperate.” “I guess we have no choice…” Crystal Velvet said.  “No,” said Prince Auris, “you don’t…” *    *    * Prince Auris had no problem killing a pony and taking the love from that pony. He always felt he’d never been loved in his past so love was a four letter word for him.  And Prince Auris was a ruthless killer. His first kill was actually when he first left the hive.  He had ran into a pony whose name was Wind Gust. Prince Auris had no problem killing him with a knife to the heart. And he would do the same to Crystal Velvet and Walnut if they didn’t go along with his plans.  Phase 2 of Prince Auris plan was to get his Changeling army from underneath his house and into Canterlot. He would succeed where Queen Chrysalis failed.  What helped Prince Auris to build his Changeling army is he had taken a piece of Queen Chrysalis throne and used the magic inside it to build his army. Over time Queen Chrysalis was defeated by the very thing that he hates a pony. The ponies name was Starlight Glimmer. And Prince Auris could geuss the Queen would be planning revenge. Prince Auris plan would not fail. He was strong and determined to carry this through.  He also knew about the humans that Princess Celestia and Princess Luna had come in contact with. And Prince Auris knew that he had to get rid of the humans because if Equestria linked up within the Princesses Equestria would be unstoppable! So Phase 1 of his plan was to wipe out Humanity. That was why he sent to meteorite to Earth to destroy them.  But humans are a lot stronger than Prince Auris thought. A small portion of humans survived the attack and sent two groups of people called Power Rangers. Which, that would just be another thorn in his side.  Prince Auris also had a Lieutenant named Onyx. It was a strange name for a Changeling but every Changeling Family had themes to their names. Prince Auris’s family theme was of the ear. And Prince Auris never understood why. As Prince Auris pressed the red button on his basement door he was greeted by Lieutenant Onyx.  “Yes your Highness?” Lt. Onyx said.  “Ah,” said Prince Auris, “Lt. Onyx how’s our small army doing this evening?” “It’s doing fine,” said Lt. Onyx, “the eggs are going to hatch any day now and the soldiers are doing good in combat.”  “Good,” said Prince Auris, “I want them ready to go as soon as possible!” “Yes my Lord…” Lt. Onyx said.  Prince Auris then turned around and pressed the red button again and closed the door. *    *    * The idea of the Power Rangers was conceived over a thousand years ago. This was because the first threat to Earth was an outside Alien race that wanted to destroy Earth and all of humanity.   Thankfully one Alien named Zork broke away from his own race and wanted to help the humans out. He then became the Guardian of Earth and was awakened only every one thousand years to have another group of Power Rangers picked out.  Little did the Power Rangers now that Zork had a dirty little secret. Zork was also father of the Changelings that have been attacking Equestria.  *    *    * Prince Auris Phase 2 of his plan had to wait because he found out that the Power Rangers had been revived and turned into ponies. Now he has to focus on getting rid of the Power Rangers. So this would be Phase 1.5 of his plan. And that would mean killing the Power Rangers one by one. > Chapter Five > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- With everything that Princess Twilight was going through; she finally realized that she couldn’t take on the responsibility of teaching the Power Rangers the elements of friendship all by herself. So, she decided to enlist the help of her friends to help teach the Power Rangers different things, along with the Elements. First thing in the morning, Princess Twilight woke up the Power Rangers very early, like two hours before the schools were open. Needless to say, the Power Rangers were not happy with Princess Twilight. “Morning Princess…” Gritt growled, after she bowed to Princess Twilight and was clearly upset that she had been woken up early. “What’s the matter?” Princess Twilight said. “Oh that’s just Gritt being a bitch in the morning.” Aanya laughed. “What is a bitch?” asked Princess Twilight tilting her head. “A bitch is what humans call a female dog,” Candis said, “it’s an insult to a female human.” “Oh,” said Princess Twilight, “well that’s not very nice Aanya. You should apologize to Gritt.” Aanya said nothing but looked at the ground sheepishly. Princess Twilight sighed, “What am I going to do with you guys?” “Well,” said Gritt, “you can explain why you woke us up at 4 o’clock in the morning!” “Oh that,” Princess Twilight said and then she smiled at Gritt, “I was thinking, that I can’t teach you guys everything you need to know all on my own. So I enlisted the help of some of my friends that teach in different schools throughout Equestria. I can’t wait until you meet them, because they have saved Equestria over and over again, alongside me before I became ruler over Equestria. I’ll even let you look in the look back book that my friends created for me, so you can see our adventures up until now. Sense our magic doesn’t seem to work on the changelings anymore, you guys will take over the fighting on the front lines.  “Wow Princess!” Beatrice said. “Sounds like fun!”  “No kidding!” said Letitia excitedly bouncing up and down while she said it.  “Wow Letitia,” growled Gritt, still groggy from waking up so early. “did you eat like a gallon of sugar already?”  “Nope,” Letitia said, “I just love being awake! As a matter of fact, I love everything!”  “That’s the spirit Letitia!” Princess Twilight said. “I don’t doubt that soon you’ll be taking on pony names also.” “I doubt that…” Gritt said.  “Why do you say that Gritt?” Princess Twilight said.  “Because I like my own name that I was given from birth.” Gritt said.  “Oh,” Princess Twilight said, “that makes sense. I like my name too! Mine just comes with a title at the beginning of it.” “Yup!” said Gritt.  “Okay.” Princess Twilight said, “it’s time for you guys to get ready for school. The pegasus will fly behind me and the rest of you will follow in the transportation balloon. I’ve already sent word that you’re coming so there’s no getting out of this.” At that comment the Power Rangers bowed to Princess Twilight and Princess Twilight turned around and left. * * * The first stop was the Wonderbolts Academy where Rainbow Dash started taking over after Spitfire retired.  “Woa!” said Aanya. “This school looks amazing! Talk about high class!” “Awesome!” said Meredith. “I hope this school teaches you how to land in your flying because,” said Aanya, “you just like to crash into everything. I’m surprised your nickname isn’t Crasher or something like that. As matter of fact, I  think I will call you Crasher. It seems to fit.” “Okay,” said Merdith, “it doesn’t bother me! You can call me whatever you like Triple A.” “Whatever..” said Aanya. “Well that’s not nice,” said a voice, “as a matter of fact, that’s just straight up wrong!” “Oh Rainbow Dash,” said Princess Twilight as she turned around, “I’m so glad to see you!” “And I’m glad to see you!” Rainbow Dash said. “And are these the Power Rangers you talking about?”  “Yup,” Princess Twilight said, “Meredith here, (the Blue Power Ranger),  needs to work on her landings and do a proper landing instead of crashing into everything.” “Oh,” said Rainbow Dash, “I see, well, I can fix that. It’s a good thing you guys came an hour before we open the doors. This way I can give you guys a proper orientation of the school. What’s this nickname calling you Triple A? Sounds weird…” “Long story..” Aanya said. “Alrighty then,” siad Rainbow Dash, giving Princess Twilight a big hug, “I can take it from here, you go rule the Country.” Princess Twilight said, “You two have fun, because I know you will. As Princess Luna always says, the fun has been doubled!”  At that remark, everyone fell over laughing and then after that Princess Twilight turned around to go drop off the rest of the Power Rangers. * * * “I am sooo happy!” Letitia said, bouncing up and down.  “Are you sure you haven’t eaten a gallon of sugar yet?” Candis asked. “Why does everypony assume that I eat a gallon of sugar every morning?” asked Letitia. “No, I’m just naturally hyper! I can’t wait to meet the Head Mare here!” “Oh boy,” said Candis, “whoever is the Head Mare here, is gonna have their hands full with you! Just take a chill pill already.” “Whatever!” Letitia snapped. “Ah,” said somepony behind them, “you must be the Power Rangers I’ve been hearing so much about!” “That’s right Starlight Glimmer,” said Princess Twilight, “the one that’s hyper is named Letitia the Pink Power Ranger and she is very happy to see you!” “I can tell..” said Head Mare Starlight Glimmer.  “The one eho is telling the hyper one to take a chill pill, (whatever that is),” said Princess Twilight, “her name is Candis. She’s the Orange Power Ranger. And the other one the hyper one, in the Pink Power Rangers named Letitia” “Cool…” said Head Mare Starlight Glimmer. “I can take it from here Twilight.”  “Okay,” said Princess Twilight, “you guys have fun! I’m to drop off the last two Power Rangers in the group and it’s back to ruling the country. Yay!”  After that was said, Princess Twilight flew off into the sky dragging the balloon with her. * * * “Well,” said Princess Twilight, “here we are, Princess Celestia’s School for Gifted Unicorns! This where you’ll be working on your studies. Starswirl is the one that is Head Mare of this school. You two have fun, I know you will!” “Yup,” said Gritt, “we’ll have fun alright. Especially if it’s away Letitia, the gallon of sugar girl!” “Oh come on Gritt,” said Beatrice, “Letitia’s fine, she just has a lot of energy in the morning. That's all..” “Oh alright…” said Gritt as she rolled her eyes at Beatrice.  For some reason they did not get a chance to meet Starswirl the Bearded. But they were able to make their way to their classes with the help of a Counselor.  * * * Back at Wonderbolts Academy, Aanya and Meredith finally completed their first day of school. And needless to say, Aanya and Meredith were very eusated. So they crashed on one of the bunk beds that were in the dorm room. Well, the beds weren’t actually bunk beds, it was actually one big bed that as many as ponies could sleep in a pile. Aanya and Meredith did not like the idea of sleeping in a pony pile, but they knew that there was nothing sexual about it. It was the norm in Equestria and soon they would get used to it. Honestly, the pony pile that Aanya and Meredith landed into felt so soft and warm, that once they landed in it they went right to sleep. * * * “Hey Aanya it’s time to wake up,” said Rainbow Dash, “I have a little surprise for you!” “Ugh..” Aanya said as she sat up. She could see that other ponies in her pony pile including Meredith were still asleep, and it was 4 o’ clock in the morning. Or at least that’s what the clock said. “Why are you waking me up so early?” Aanya said almost in a growl.  “I have a surprise just for you!” said Rainbow Dash, “You’ll see, it’s going to be fun!” “Ugh,” said Aanya, “more flying?”  “No,” said Rainbow Dash, “you’ll see…” “Um,” said Aanya, “okay..” * * * The surprise for Aanya was meeting Countess Coloratura. Which,  Aanya wasn’t really thrilled about this, because she didn’t know what to think. “Well hi there,” said Countess Coloratura, “you must be the new student that I’ve heard so much about. And your name is…” “Aanya…” Aanya said. “Oh,” said Countess Coloratura, “that’s a weird name, but I’m not one to judge. It’s so nice to meet you.” “It’s nice to meet you too!” Aanya said.  “Okay,” said Rainbow Dash, “I’ll leave you two alone to discuss things. Have fun!” With swift turn Rainbow Dash went back to her office. * * * “So,” said Countess Coloratura, “what this singing voice I hear Rainbow Dash told me about?”  “Yeah,” said Aanya, “I like to sing, so what?” “Yeah know,” said Countess Coloratura, “I’ve always loved singing. That’s how I got my cutie mark.” “Wow.” said Aanya. “Now,” said Countess Coloratura, “let’s practice shall we? Oh and you can call me Ra Ra instead.” “So is that a nickname?” Aanya asked. “Yup, it’s my real nickname,” said Ra Ra, “I only let my friends call me that. I can tell, we’re going to be good friends. I just know it!” “Um, okay…” Aanya said.  “Now,” said Ra Ra, “let’s go through the scales shall we?” “Sure!” said Aanya. “I want you to say La, to every note that is played on this piano.” said Ra Ra.  Then Ra Ra took her place at the piano and played a perfectly tuned note. Aanya then echoed the notes back, “La, la, la, la, la!” Ra Ra then clapped her hooves together really excitedly.  “You do have a beautiful voice!” said Ra Ra.”Just when I discovered Sweetie Bell! She used to tour with me and be my opening act, but she’s so busy nowadays helping other ponies get their cutie mark or helping them to understand their cutie marks!” “Oh,” said Aanya. “What do you want me to do?” “I would love it if you would tour with me!” said Ra Ra. “And I have just the song you can perform! It’s called The Magic Inside of You! I think that would be a good song for you because you can hit the high notes. Oh, I’m so excited to have found you!” “Oh,” said Aanya, “can I think about it? No offense, but it sounds like you’re being kind of pushy about it. And I’ve been pushed into a lot of things in my life and I’ve even been pushed into being a Power Ranger.” “What’s a Power Ranger?” asked Ra Ra. “It’s a long story,” said Aanya, “and I don’t feel like explaining it right now. I’m still tired. Rainbow Dash woke me up at 4 o’ clock in the morning! “Yikes!” said Ra Ra. “Yeah I know right?” said Aanya. “Well Let’s practice singing the scales,” said Ra Ra, “then maybe we can sing my song, if we have enough time. I only have like two more hours to work with you. Rainbow Dash has overwritten most of your classes until after this time. She seems to think that you don’t need a whole bunch of flying classes.”  “Okay,” said Aanya, “let’s do this thing!”  “Good,” said Ra Ra. “Let’s get started.” Without another word, Ra Ra started to play another note. * * * Aanya was flying over Ponyville, she saw the stray cat digging through the trash.  “Awe,” Aanya said, “poor thing!”  Aany then scooped the cat in her hooves and flew back off to Princess Twilight's castle where she was to meet the rest of the Power Rangers. When Aanya arrived at Princess Twilight’s old castle, she found the rest of the Power Rangers sitting in the old throne room. “Hi guys!” Aanay said excitedly. “Look what I found! It’s our new Mascot!” “A cat?” growled Gritt. “Really Aanya? You couldn’t think of anything more simple?” “So what were you thinking?” asked Aanya.  “I was thinking more like a dragon,” said Gritt, “like Spike. By the way, where is the guy?” “Oh he's dealing with a growth spurt,” said Princess Twilight, “Thankfully, he’s under the care of Zecora, our resident Doctor.” “Well that’s good to know.” said Gritt. “So, what’s this meeting about anyway?” asked Aanya. “Oh,” said Princes Twilight, “well I wanted to talk to you about the Changelings attack lately. For some reason, our rainbow magic doesn’t seem to work on them anymore. And I’m not so sure.” “Oh…” Aanya said. “Your cat looks grumpy!” said Princess Twilight. “I know how to help a grumpy cat. Watch this…” Next, Princess Twilight sat on her rear end and took a deep breath.  “Sunshine, sunshine, ladybugs awake,” said Princess Twilight, “clap your hooves and do a little shake.”  It was after Princess Twilight shook her tail, the cat hissed at her. “Well,” said Princess Twilight, “that was interesting. Never had a cat do that to me before…” “Oh...” said Aanya trying to contain her laughter. “Well, enough about that,” said Princess Twilight, “we need to talk about stopping the changelings…” With that, Princess Twilight took her place at the throne table. * * * The former Princess Celestia paced back and forth in front of the Elements of Harmony awaiting Princess Twilight’s arrival. Princess Twilight had been feeling kind of sick lately and Celestia wondered if it had something to do with the Elements. “I have good news and bad news for you,” said Celestia, “which one do you want?” “Bad news I guess…” said Princess Twilight.  “I don’t know how to say this,” said Celestia, “but the Elements of Harmony are dying.”  “What?!” said Princess Twilight. “Let me show you,” said Celestia, “here we go…” Celestia then tapped on Princess Twilight’s Element of Magic. The Element glowed for a short period of time and then dimmined. Right after that, Princess Twilight looked doubled over in pain. “So what’s the good news?” groaned Princess Twilight. “Actually,” said Celstia, “ I don’t have any good news for I’m sorry. We need to get you to the Hospital, now!” Without another word Celestia rushed Princess Twilight to the Hospital in Canterlot.
