Reflections

*through the mirror everyone's bodies are getting distorted*

Rainbow- *smiles* What if our other pony selves are all mixed up?

Blitz- *smiles* What if we're unicorns! We'd be magical!

Spike/Barbra- *looks at them* What if you guys are earth ponies?

Rainbow/Blitz- *yawns* Boring.

Applejack/AJ- *glares at them offended* Hey!

*their bodies swirl into a vortex and get distorted*

Rarity- *worried* I can feel something awful happening to my hair.

Elusive- *worried* Somepony tell us if our hair is okay?!

Fluttershy/Butterscotch- *nauseous* *woozy* The swirling is making us a little- *gags*

Twilight/Dusk- *worried* Hang on!!

*they all shoot out the portal and are disoriented*

Rarity/Elusive- *woozy* We hurt our dignity...

Pinkie/Bubble- *woozy* Again!

*they regain themselves and look in shock and worry*

Fluttershy/Butterscotch- *worried* Oh, my...

Twilight/Dusk- *horrified* Canterlot...

*they see that Canterlot is bleak and dull and gray*

Dusk- *concerned* It's so bleak. Things must be really bad here.

Rarity- *worried* Is this what our Equestria would like if we failed?

Elusive- *nuzzles her in reassurance* *worried*

Applejack/AJ- *worried* Hopefully, not.

Butterscotch- *concerned* Maybe it's not so bad...

*him and Fluttershy see worried animals and immediately hug them*

Fluttershy- *crying* IT'S SO BAD!

Voices- Hello?

*they turn to see guards in gray armor*

Guard- *serious* What are you twelve...

Spike/Barbra- *yells* Fourteen!

Guard- ...fourteen doing here?

Twilight- *politely* Why, I'm glad you asked. We're here to...

Guard- *looks at a wanted poster of their alternate selves* *glares* Hold it! It's these hooligans! Arrest them!

Mane 6/Colt 6/Spike/Barbra- *scared* WHAT?!

*back in the past in the alternate Canterlot, Celestia, Solaris and Star Swirl are locked up in jail*

Solaris- *unamused* *to Star Swirl* We're here for five seconds and you insult a palace guard. Nice.

Star Swirl- *shrugs* He had on a funny hat.

Celestia- *unamused* You're one to talk.

Star Swirl- *offended* You two have no idea what I had to do to find a chapeau quite this spectacular.

Solaris- *serious* I have a bad feeling about this.

Celestia- *serious* Can't we just use our magic to just "poof" ourselves out?

Star Swirl- *serious* Best not. We don't want to cause a ruckus while we're here. Escaping is a ruckus. This world is so like our own...we don't want to risk creating paradoxes. We'll wait for our audience with the king and queen. We'll meet them and straighten this out.
