PART ONE

‘Okay, at least I’m a little more used to these… these legs now,’ Twilight thought, taking a few more careful steps along the emptying corridor, her gaze darting about.

A few of the students cast weirded out glances at her as they passed, a couple of them whispering to one another. Twilight nervously waved, but kept herself going.

“Spike… What do I do?” Twilight hissed under her breath toward her backpack, “I’m already weird enough to these other beings!”

“Maybe we should have paid more attention to all those lectures on humanity we got after the Crystal Battle, eh?” Spike asked, shrugging in confusion.

“I know…” Twilight mumbled, looking around again, biting her lip. “You’d think after I’ve known Ascentia, that’d I’d be able to ace through this! But it’s like I don’t know a thing! I feel more lost than if I was all by myself in the Everfree Forest up against a cockatrice...”

“Maybe Fluttershy can glare at everyone and hope they go away?” Spike suggested sarcastically.

Twilight grumbled to herself, unable to properly answer that. However, she heard something coming from around one corner. Which sounded like shouting, or some kind of commotion going on. Instincts kicking in, she immediately walked a bit faster toward the supposed source of whatever the commotion was.

“Do you have any idea what you have done?! You could have just told that dimwitted girl I was entrusted with it, and everything would have been just fine?!” Sunset Shimmer’s voice was a growling rumble.

“But you weren’t,” came another voice, calm and with a hint of a foreign accent behind it, “And frankly, Sunset, I don’t care what you wanted it for anyway. Fluttershy had something she shouldn’t have had, and I told her to bring it back to Vice Principal Luna.”

“Why does that dimwit girl even listen to you in the first place?!” Sunset shouted.

“It helps that I’m not an asshole,” the other girl replied, “I have things to do, now get out of the way of my locker.”

“I’m not going anywh-”

Sunset didn’t get a chance to finish as the girl grabbed her by the front of her shirt and yanked back, pulling Sunset away from the lockers and right onto her face on the floor.

In shock, Twilight stared with wide eyes at the scene as she came around, “Oh my gosh, that’s Sunset Shimmer! And that was-”

It clicked. The girl standing at the locker, already rotating the clock, was a tall, skinny red-haired girl. As Twilight took in her features, the combinations of colours, she froze in place. The girl was wearing a green jacket, along with a golden-brown shirt beneath it, a fairly short skirt that matched the jacket, and brown shin-high boots. Her hair was long, a deep red, while she was carrying a bronze-coloured backpack in one hand.

“That’s Ascentia!” Twilight whispered toward Spike, amazed, “I had no idea she even knew about the portal! I guess she came down here to help!”

“Uh, Twilight. We did just see a Fluttershy that didn’t recognize us,” Spike remarked, “Are you sure this is the same Ascentia?”

“Of course it is! She’d have the power to change herself to look like this!” Twilight whispered, “Just watch!”

She walked over to where Ascentia was standing, “Wow, that was amazing the way you went up against Sunset Shimmer like that! But thank Celestia you’re here, at least you have a better idea of what’s going on!”

Ascentia turned to her new visitor, a bewildered eye, “Sunset Shimmer’s always starting some shit every other day. Are you new here, or has she just left you alone most of the time?”

Twilight’s smile faded. They were alone, so there was no reason to keep up a cover, so why was she talking like they’d never met before? “Well, it’s a long story, but-Ascentia, it’s me! Don’t you recognize me? It’s me, Twilight! I know I look a little different, but it’s me!”

Ascentia leaned back against the lockers, “Nice to meet you, Twilight. Do you mind explaining how exactly you know my name? And why I’m supposed to recognize you?” A bit of a confused, yet amused, look crossed her face.

She could hear Spike snickering from her backpack. He’d been right. This wasn’t the same Ascentia she knew. Much like Fluttershy, she was of this world. But Twilight didn’t quite understand it, why were there two versions of her? If she’d also been a pony, she’d understand, but this didn’t make sense.

‘Then again, when did anything with her ever make sense?’

“So… you’re not Lord Ascentia Kortai of the Val’Kyr?” Twilight asked, sheepish.

“Val’Kyr? Those weird angels from that online game the moody kid in the computer lab won’t stop playing?” Ascentia asked, “What does that have to do with me?”

“Uh….” Twilight’s eyes shifted about nervously. She gave a sheepish smile, bringing her arms behind her back, “Nothing! I guess I must’ve mistaken you for someone else… my bad!”

Ascentia’s look became even more bewildered, “That’s quite a weird mistake to… fuck it, I’ve seen weirder shit this week alone,” she held out a hand, “I’m Ascentia Kortai, nice to meet you.”

“I’m Twilight Sparkle, nice to meet you too…” Twilight stared at her hand as if it were a weird object. ‘Oh, right… Humans shake hands!’ She smiled sheepishly, taking her hand in an awkward shake.

“You must be one of those program kids, you seem to have trouble with how to interact with people,” Ascentia smirked as she let go of her hand, “Or maybe it’s just me.”

“Uh.. I’m just… new here! Yeah, I’m new here… So I don’t really know what’s going on around here… Uh, hey, you said that you.. told Fluttershy to give back that...thing she found?” Twilight pointed in all directions, trying to emphasize her point, albeit awkwardly.

“Actually she just gave it to me,” Ascentia replied, “She was a little worried someone would accuse her of stealing it. Fluttershy’s a little hypersensitive around other people.”

‘I noticed...’ Twilight thought, “I can understand that. See, um… This might sound crazy, but… I kind of need that thing.”

Ascentia gave her a more piercing look, the kind that reminded Twilight of the Val’Kyr herself, “Oh really? Sunset Shimmer was saying the same thing. I look forward to hearing your excuse.”

“I-It’s not for the reason you think it is! It’s because… Because…”

‘Because what? It’s a magical relic from another world? She won’t believe that! This is Ascentia, she lives in this world grounded in their own perception of reality… I can’t tell her that!’

“Because… I know how much of a jerk Sunset Shimmer can be! Trust me, she and I go way back…” Twilight went on, managing to get more into her lie, “And I think it’s time that this school had a bit of change. Maybe someone else needs to run against her! And I’d like to do that.”

“The Fall Formal crown isn’t some magical weapon, Twilight. It’s just a piece of costume jewelry. Having it isn’t going to make you any more influential than Sunset Shimmer. Shimmer doesn’t even have any real power, she just extorts what she wants out of everyone and the administration isn’t legally allowed to put a stop to it,” Ascentia explained, “If you wanted to challenge her, you’d have to network.”

“Network? Well, okay then! I’ll challenge her the way… it works around here,” Twilight stated, standing as tall as she could on her legs. ‘Oh yes, the crown isn’t a magical weapon… Keep telling yourself that… Oh boy, you have no idea...’

“I have no idea about what?” Ascentia asked.

“What?!” Twilight squeaked, taking a step back. ‘Oh no! She can read minds?! I thought there wasn’t any magic in this world!’

“You mumbled something, said ‘you have no idea’ and then stopped,” Ascentia replied.

Eyes shifting, Twilight cleared her throat to stall, “Uh…. I meant to say that you have no idea how much I’ll work to prove Sunset Shimmer wrong!”

Ascentia chuckled. This new girl certainly was odd, but cute at the same time. More than once Ascentia caught herself looking the girl up and down, checking her out.

“So…” Twilight blushed ever slightly. It didn’t help that this world’s Ascentia looked very much like her younger self, except with much skinnier proportions than normal. She still managed to look quite attractive; whether it was that or simply a combination of the two, she wasn’t sure. “I’m a… little new to this kind of thing, at least in this wo-school! I mean, I was always a bit more of a studious type. And I still have a lot to learn!”

“About what? Getting to know people? Did your old school do it’s lessons online, or were you just privately taught?” Ascentia asked, glancing down at Twilight’s legs, intrigued by the shade.

“Uh… Well, back in my old...school… I transferred there and I had to learn to make friends since I was...homeschooled! Yeah, up until a-few years ago, I was!” Twilight smiled sheepishly, rubbing the back of her neck. “And I know a lot of-schools… have different systems sometimes! I don’t exactly have an easy time making friends.”

“Welcome to the worlds of half the other kids here,” Ascentia chuckled, turning and bending over to dig through her bag, “I know I left it in here somewhere… where was it…”

“Um… Do you need help finding whatever it is you’re looking for?” Twilight asked, curious.

“Nah, my bag’s just a mess. Feel free to enjoy the view, though,” she said with a laugh, as she dug deeper into her bag.

“The-oh!” Twilight turned around, her cheeks pink, “Sorry!”

‘What are you doing?! This isn’t the same Ascentia! I mean, they have the same personality, but they’re from different worlds! I’m sure we could be friends, but come on… this isn’t the same thing!’ Twilight thought, all but mentally slapping herself.

Ascentia sprang back up, handing Twilight a small folded piece of paper, “Here it is,” she said, handing it to her.

“What is it?” Twilight asked, unfolding it.

Oh the paper was a scrawled note saying, I don’t know why you want the crown, and frankly I really don’t care. At the same time, I really don’t care what happens to a crappy piece of metal the school likes to pretend is of any value. Maybe you and I can make a deal. If you want it, be back here after school hours. Classroom behind me.

Puzzled, Twilight looked up from the note, “I don’t get it, did someone write this to you?”

“No, I wrote it, just now,” Ascentia replied, slinging her bag over her back and walking away, “Ignore it if you’re not interested.”

As an additional incentive, she flipped her bag so Twilight could glimpse the purple star of her crown inside an external pouch.

‘She still has it! She probably just took it from her right now, was on her way to bring it back to...wherever she had to bring it to….’

“I-I… it’s not that, I just… Okay, yes, let’s go talk about this somewhere more private,” Twilight conceded.

“Read the note, you know what to do,” Ascentia called back, continuing to walk away, “It’s not going anywhere in the meantime, don’t worry.”

Once she was out of earshot, Twilight looked to her backpack, “Spike! What do I do?! She has the Element of Magic! It’s right in her bag! I don’t know what to tell her!”

“What does her note say?” Spike asked, trying to peer over her shoulder.

Twilight handed it to him to read, “She wants to make a deal with me. I don’t really get it… But, if that’s how we can get it back, I’ll have to see what she has to say.”

The dark corridors of Canterlot High felt a lot more eerie to Twilight when there wasn’t the echoing commotion of active students all around it. It took her a good hour just to find the right hallway. By the time she was at the right classroom door, she had hoped Ascentia hadn’t assumed she’d changed her mind and left. Pushing open the door, finding it to be unlocked, she saw Ascentia sitting cross-legged on a desk, absently doodling in her notebook propped against her lap.

“Hi, Ascentia,” she said with a whisper.

Ascentia looked up, “You don’t need to whisper, there’s nobody here,” she said, setting her notebook down and motioning for Twilight to sit down.

“Um, okay!” Twilight scooted over to a nearby desk and sat down, wringing her fingers on the desk. “So, um… you wanted to see me about this thing so we can work out a deal?”

“Yeah,” Ascentia said, looking Twilight up and down again, biting her lip a little, “I’ll just cut to the chase. I’m into girls, you’re really hot, and maybe if you scratch my back I’ll scratch yours, you understand me so far?”

Twilight furrowed her brow, confused. “...You want me to scratch your back? Well, okay… I’ll scratch it for you, but I don’t really know how to. But mine isn’t itchy, though. So, wait, I don’t get it. You want me to scratch your back and you’ll give me the crown?”

Ascentia cocked an eyebrow, “Your parents are deeply religious, aren’t they? Let me make it a little clearer.”

She opened her legs, revealing that she wasn’t wearing any panties underneath her skirt, “Understand me now?”

Letting out a loud squeal, Twilight shot up from her chair, knocking it to the floor and taking a few steps back. “You want to sleep with me?! I… Ascentia, it’s not that I don’t think you’re attractive but I-... I already have a lover back home! I can’t just do that to her! Look… M-Maybe I can just get the crown some other way… I-I can’t put you or her or myself in a tough position like this…”

“Alright,” Ascentia replied, closing her legs and standing up, “It’s kinda cute that you want to be faithful to your girlfriend.”

She slung her back back over her shoulder, dropping the crown in Twilight’s lap as she headed for the door.

“Wait!” Twilight cried, holding the element in her hand and staring after her, “Where are you going? You can’t possibly be giving it to me! I was going to say we could work something else out!” All the while a mental voice saying SHUT UP YOU IDIOT! SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP! rang in her head

“I said in my note I didn’t care what happened to a bit of costume jewelry,” Ascentia replied, “Besides, I made you uncomfortable enough with my offer. Take it. I would have given it to you earlier, but I was wondering if I had some leverage to get laid.”

“....Why would you have trouble with that?” Twilight asked, approaching her. “I mean, you’re a smart, unique, interesting and lovely woman. Who wouldn’t want to make love with you?”

“I’m gay,” Ascentia replied, leaning against the door, “I don’t know how it went wherever you came from, but that doesn’t exactly fly around here. Hell, I was taking a gambit on coming on to you.”

“...Ascentia, I…. it’s really complicated… But I like ma-girls, too. And I… well, I definitely…” Twilight blushed immensely, not quite looking at her, “I know this crown doesn’t mean a thing to you. But it does to me. It’s not something I can explain. But I don’t feel right about making you give it to me and not getting something in return.”

“It’s alright Twilight. Take it,” Ascentia replied with a shrug, turning back to the door, “It was nice meeting you.”

“...Wait!” Twilight went to her, tugging her arm, “I’ll do it.”

“What about your lover back home?” Ascentia asked.

Twilight bit her lip, exhaling, “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you.”

Ascentia shrugged and pulled Twilight further toward her, capturing her lips in hers as a hand snaked down to pull around her waist.

The conflicting emotions resonated within Twilight’s mind as she realized what was going on. This Ascentia, while the same in appearance and personality, for the most part, was not the same she remembered. Just as she would have been in another world. But the sparks were there, the attraction, everything else she’d ever felt remained. In response, Twilight fisted her fingers into her hair and kissed back.

It was surreal, to be able to have this kind of contact with her, even if it wasn’t her. A moan ripped through her throat, bringing herself closer to the teenager.

Ascentia pulled her lips to chuckle softly at Twilight gripping her hair, “You’re a fiery one,” she said before biting down onto her lips again, cupping her ass in one hand and wrapping the other around the back of her neck.

“I’ve had a lot of experience…” Twilight managed, shuddering, “It’s a long story…”

“Well maybe you can put that experience to use,” Ascentia whispered, leaning down to suck on Twilight’s neck, lifting one of her legs to rest on her waist so she could run her hand over her thigh.

“Aaah…” Twilight moaned, trembling, holding to her for support, “H-How do you want it? Just tell me, and I can do it for you…”

Ascentia pushed her away, taking a quick slap of her ass in the process, “Strip down and bend over that desk,” she said, reaching under her own skirt and giving herself a few quick rubs.

“Ow!” Twilight squeaked, jumping back a bit, “Okay… Just uh… give me a second…”

‘Oh no, it’s bad enough that I don’t know how to use my hands, but how do I take off these clothes?! Think of a diversion...’

“Actually, why don’t you take them off?”

Ascentia’s gaze grew surprisingly predatory, “Alright” she said silkily, gripping Twilight by the shoulders and kissing her fiercely again, unbuttoning a few buttons on her blouse and tearing the rest open, roughly pulling it off her shoulders before throwing it aside, kissing down her collarbone.

“Th-Thanks…” Twilight squeaked and moaned, finding her legs buckling. As if it wasn’t awkward enough standing on her hind legs, now she couldn’t stand at all. “A-Ah… Could you get… this thing...off me?” She indicated to her purple bra.

Taking the straps in her hands, Ascentia flicked her finger and the catch around her back came apart, and a few tugs later Twilight’s breasts were free and exposed to Ascentia’s gaze.

‘So… these are actual humanoid mammary glands?’ Twilight thought, looking down at them with amazement. She resisted the urge to cup them and feel them, knowing it would look suspicious if she did so. “Uh… okay! Here you go! I’ll uh… take care of the skirt!” She pulled down her pleated skirt, which pooled around her boots.

Ascentia pushed Twilight down onto the teacher’s desk, hungrily looking over her body, bare save for her boots and lavender panties as she ran her hands over her legs, peppering kisses along her belly and smiling up at her as she kicked Twilight’s boots off her feet with a well placed flick of her own legs.

Twilight trembled, feeling so odd and out of place, especially in being completely bare with a body she wasn’t familiar with, in a classroom. “W-Wow… You sure know what you’re doing…”

Ascentia chuckled again, “What, you’ve never taken your clothes off before?” she absently thumbed the waistband of Twilight’s panties as she spoke.

“Well, no… I mean… I’m just amazed at how much you seem to know about all this…” Twilight mumbled, “I-I only learned it first-hoo-hand three years ago, myself…”

“You must get laid as little as I do these days,” Ascentia smiled, tugging at her panties a little harder, “So… shall we? Or are you having second thoughts?”

“No… I’m fine, go ahead…” Twilight mumbled, not exactly having the heart to tell her that she “got laid” a little more than infrequently.

Ascentia smiled as she hooked her fingers into Twilight’s panties and slowly slid the soft material down her legs, and off her feet, throwing them aside. Wasting no time, she pried open Twilight’s legs and leaned in, taking a long, eager lick of her moistening snatch.

“AH!” The lavender girl squealed, nearly falling back, “Ooooh…. Ascentia, that feels so… Keep going!”

Ascentia had no trouble obliging, taking more and longer licks of Twilight’s pussy, as if savoring the taste more than aiming to pleasure someone. It crossed Twilight’s mind that perhaps this world’s Ascentia enjoyed eating other girls out and had gone too long without the opportunity. Either way, Ascentia’s licking was certainly getting the job done as her tongue constantly brushed against her clit.

“Nnnghh! Ascentia…” Twilight moaned, squeezing her eyes shut and clutching either side of the desk. It was definitely odd that she was sharing this with who was practically the same woman. Did it count as cheating? She wasn’t sure. But now was not the time to wonder. “A-Almost...there…!”

Ascentia was confused how she could be there already, but didn’t question it as she continued her hungry licking. The tangy, yet sweet taste of Twilight’s pussy driving her to lick harder, her mouth watering at the taste of her juices dribbling out ever so slightly.

Panting, moaning, Twilight managed to look down at the woman between her thighs. Their eyes met, which admittedly astounded her. The eyes looking back at her weren’t the familiar atrophied orbs she was used to. They were instead a pale blue, almost icy, but were vibrant. It almost felt odd, and yet, so thrilling at the same time.

Bucking her hips upward, Twilight squealed out a strangled version of Ascentia’s name as she climaxed. The intensity rocked through her body, rendering her helpless as she collapsed, trembling.

Ascentia eagerly licked up Twilight’s cum, making a satisfied moan as the taste filled her mouth, nibbling at her lips and trailing her tongue around her pussy to gather every ounce of the tasty liquid she possibly could, before leaning up over her body, “You have a bit of a hair trigger, but damn you taste good. Like vanilla and lavender perfume.”

Blushing a bit, Twilight smiled, “Thank you… I-I’m glad that was nice for you… Um, so… do you want me to return the favour?”

“Absolutely,” Ascentia grinned, standing up and pulling her jacket off, lifting her shirt over her head and throwing it aside. Kicking her boots off and against the wall before unhooking her shirt and pulling it off like a long belt, standing before Twilight in her bra and panties before jumping onto her again, slamming her lips into hers again, hungrily nibbling at them.

Hungrily returning the kiss, Twilight brought her arms around the other girl, running her fingers along her back. Once more it struck her at how surreal this was. To be at Ascentia’s level, the same size as her, was remarkable. To think she was able to share this without being more than half her height. She moaned into their mouths, their lips and tongues intensely dueling for a battle of dominance.

As her tongue wrestled with Twilight’s, Ascentia reached behind her back and undid her bra, throwing it aside before kneeling over Twilight, her knees on either side of her torso, “Are you ready?” she asked.

“Yes…” Twilight managed, nodding a bit as her cheeks now matched the pink streak in her hair.

Shifting her weight, Ascentia slipped her panties off her legs, throwing them onto the desk next to Twilight’s head before kneeling over her face, her aroused sex dripping a little onto her cheek. She knelt there, waiting.

Her eyes shifting up, Twilight took in the sight of her womanhood. It was mostly, if not completely identical. Same amount of hair along it, same shape, same kind of slit, and the engorged clitoris practically beckoned her.

Bringing her hands to her hips, Twilight pulled them to her level and began to hungrily attack at her sopping sex. Ascentia loudly moaned in a combination of pleasure and relief, placing both her hands behind Twilight’s head, leaning over her to keep her balance as the girl’s tongue mercilessly explored her.

‘She even tastes the same!’ Twilight thought, despite that it wasn’t as much of a surprise as she thought. Her mouth engulfed her labia, while her tongue licked and flicked along the swollen bundle of nerves. She hummed into the tender flesh, emitting vibrations. Ascentia’s grip on Twilight’s head tightened as she swirled her hips over Twilight’s tongue.

“Of fuck, Twilight,” she groaned, “Oh, that’s a good girl…”

“Mmmmm…” Twilight hummed, all but practically devouring the tasty sex placed before her. Granted, it hadn’t been long since the last time they’d had sex; but it seemed to be long enough that she hadn’t realized how much she was actually craving it. The juices were just beginning to leak, further enticing her tastebuds.

“Oh god,” Ascentia purred, “Oh, I’m close, Twilight. I’m cl-”

“I DON’T THINK YOU UNDERSTAND, YOU HIPPIE BITCH! I WASN’T ASKING!”

Twilight all but nearly jumped at the loud yelling, wide-eyed. “That’s Sunset Shimmer!”

Ascentia whipped around, “And there’s only one person she ever calls ‘hippie bitch’.”

“We’d better go see what’s going on,” Twilight said, concern creeping into her tone as she bit her lip. “I hope she’s not hurting anyone…”

Swinging her leg around, Ascentia disconnected her soaked pussy from Twilight’s lips and reached for the door, flinging it open as she wrestled her clothes back on and tearing down the hall toward the noise.

Managing, as best as she could, to get her clothes back on, Twilight hurried after her. Whatever Sunset Shimmer was doing didn’t sound good; especially since she had a feeling that it was regarding the crown. Which by now was shoved into her own backpack, hidden from view.

As the two of them turned a corner, they saw Sunset Shimmer at the end of the hallway, along with Snips and Snails who were restraining a sobbing Fluttershy as Sunset wrestled her skirt off her kicking legs.

Wasting no time, Ascentia tore into a run, the clacking of her boots alerting the three. Before they could respond, however, Ascentia hopped up, grabbing the overhead light. Hauling her feet back, she slammed her heels into Sunset Shimmer’s jaw and let go of the light, her weight dropping on Snails and kicking Snips feet out from under him. As she got to her feet, Twilight was only just catching up.

“Oh my gosh…!”

The moment Twilight caught sight of Fluttershy, she ran to her side to tend to her friend. The pinkette was sobbing and even struggling a bit as Twilight attempted to help her to her feet.

“Fluttershy-it’s okay! It’s me, Twilight, don’t worry,” Twilight assured her, giving her a squeeze.

Sniffling, Fluttershy met her gaze, an unreadable look in her eyes, which were bloodshot and puffy. Nodding, she allowed Twilight to help her stand, while still trembling with fear, but said nothing.

Snips and Snails weren’t the tough kind, and were curled on the floor clutching their injuries. Sunset Shimmer, on the other hand, wasn’t so lucky. Ascentia had her held to the lockers by her throat, repeatedly slamming her fist square into Sunset’s stomach. The clang of her back striking the lockers with each hit was painful to listen to.

“What happened, Fluttershy?” Twilight dared ask, tearing her eyes away from the painful sight of Ascentia’s beating on Sunset Shimmer.

Voice quivering, Fluttershy managed to answer, “I-I-I was…. on my way to…. m-meet…. my friend in gym class… f-for her practice… A-And then… Sunset Shimmer… along with the boys… they were trying to get me back for… giving Ascentia th-the crown… I-I-I tried to scream for help but they forced themselves on me… Sunset Shimmer was even-!” She couldn’t go on anymore and began to cry.

Understanding the rest, Twilight nodded and brought an arm around Fluttershy’s shoulders to comfort her as best she could. “Don’t worry, Fluttershy. You’re safe now. She isn’t going to touch you again, not if we have anything to say about it. Do you still want to go to the gym? Or to...the uh….nursing infirmary?”

A loud sniffle sounded from Fluttershy as she tried to calm herself down, looking at the floor, “I-I-I can’t let Rainbow Dash see me like this… I need… please take me to the nurse, Twilight…”

“All right,” Twilight nodded, looking back toward Ascentia once more as she led Fluttershy away.

“Don’t worry,” Ascentia called back, slamming the back of her fist against Sunset’s nose, “I got this.”

Twilight caught a final glimpse of Sunset being thrown to the floor, snivelling and sobbing, and bleeding from several cuts and bruises. Part of her felt sorry for the girl’s pain. Another, far louder and more convincing part, was satisfied.

Inside the infirmary, with the lights turned on, but a lack of nursing staff; Twilight had to tend to Fluttershy herself. Thankfully, aside from a couple of cuts and bruises, she was mostly unharmed. At least physically. Twilight could tell that she was going to need some time to recover from the incident.

“I’m… I’m sorry to have inconvenienced you, Twilight… I probably should never have given-”

“Fluttershy,” Twilight interrupted as she dabbed some antiseptic onto a cut, “don’t you dare blame yourself for this. What Sunset Shimmer tried to do to you was not your fault. Just because you gave Ascentia the crown to give back didn’t mean you did a terrible thing. You didn’t deserve this and Sunset Shimmer had no right to do this to you. Don’t worry, I’m just glad we managed to get there when we did.”

Sniffling, Fluttershy nodded, looking a bit more relieved. “I came here because… my friend Rainbow Dash is doing some late night practicing with some of her teammates in the gym. They sometimes come here to do that, for some extra practice… But then they caught me and-I-I was stuck…”

“It’s okay,” Twilight wrapped a bandage on her arm, concealing a cut, “I mean, Sunset didn’t get too far, did she?”

The timid girl shook her head, “No… She only got as far as trying to take off my skirt. I was-... Twilight? Your… your breath smells funny. Could you, could you please not breathe so close to me?”

“Sorry,” Twilight stood up, taking the first aid kit with her, “You should be fine, by now.”

“Thank you… Thank you both for helping me,” Fluttershy murmured, managing to stand up, “I’m really grateful for you both.”

“Hey, you’re welcome,” Twilight replaced the first aid kit where she’d found it, “But you don’t have to thank us. We saw you were in trouble and of course we wanted to help. You don’t have to worry about Sunset Shimmer anymore. She’s not going to get near you.”

“That’s… I hope so, anyway,” Fluttershy murmured, sighing sadly, “Twilight, could you go with me to the gym, please? I-I really… don’t think I want to go there alone, now.”

“They won’t be a problem,” Ascentia replied bitterly as she stood in the doorway, “The police are arresting them right now.”

Eyes wide, Fluttershy gasped a bit, “O-Oh my… They’re already here?”

“They were on their way anyway,” Ascentia replied, “Someone heard some… gasping and called the police as a precaution.” She looked away at her last words.

Twilight’s cheeks pinkened, wondering if that meant-she shook her head at the thought, deciding not to dwell on it, “Well, that’s good. At least she won’t be causing any trouble here, now.”

As Ascentia nodded, Fluttershy was looking between the two, “Um… why were you guys here in the first place? If you don’t mind me asking…”

“Uh, studying!” Twilight said quickly, grinning sheepishly. “We, uh… were studying together, but I-forgot one one of my books here, and since we knew the school was at least open due to late practices with the...sports teams, we decided to come here to get the book I forgot.”

Twilight’s lie would have been bought had their haste to dress themselves not left their clothes misaligned and their hair matted. Fluttershy noticed this, along with the funny odor on Twilight’s breath, and instantly clapped her hands to her mouth, blushing furiously. Any sane pony would have kept quiet, but the ever apologetic Fluttershy could not.

“I’m so sorry! I’m so so sorry! I didn’t mean to interrupt you and ruin everything for you, I’m so sorry!” she said rapidly, hiding her face.

“Fluttershy!” Despite that they were caught in the lie, Twilight placed a hand on her shoulder in assurance, “Fluttershy, don’t apologize about that! There’s other chances we could-well, you know, but there was no way that we were going to carry on after we had a feeling that Sunset Shimmer was causing trouble. We heard her yelling and that’s what tipped us off. You didn’t interrupt anything, especially not intentionally. Please, don’t worry about it, okay?”

Whimpering, Fluttershy sniffled and barely looked at her, “...Okay… Still, I’m sorry…”

“You’re cute, we forgive you,” Ascentia said, waving her hand at her, causing Fluttershy to blush harder. Twilight thought this odd even for Fluttershy.

“....Okay… Well, um… we should go…” Fluttershy said, fixing her hair a bit, “I-I-I’m already late enough as it is.”

Twilight nodded, blushing a bit herself, “Right! Yeah, we’ll take you to the gym. Even though Sunset Shimmer’s gone, no reason we can’t still give you a suitable escort.”

Soon enough, they reached the gym, dropping off Fluttershy. She thanked them and apologized once more, before she darted off inside. Twilight observed, as she saw Fluttershy approaching a sporty girl with cyan blue skin and rainbow hair. She could only guess that it was Rainbow Dash, definitely living up to her love of athletics and games.

Satisfied that Fluttershy was safe now, Twilight turned from the gym doors, “Well… so now what do we do?”

Ascentia waved her hand, “You can go home if you like, I think the mood has been pretty much ruined.”

“...Um, yeah… home…” Twilight said nervously, rubbing her arm. It was just then that she realized she had nowhere to go. Going back to Equestria was out of the question, and she didn’t know anyone enough to stay with them. “Right! Well, I’ll see you… see you tomorrow… I guess, if you want.”

“Twilight… do you have anywhere to go?” Ascentia asked.

Twilight hesitated. She thought to lie again, but also wasn’t sure how to tell the truth. How was she going to explain that she had nowhere to go without looking crazy? “I’m fine, of course I do! I just, well I guess I’m a bit more tired than I thought.”

“Twilight, if there’s something you’d like to tell me, then go ahead,” Ascentia replied, concern rising in her voice.

Realizing she was cornered, Twilight went with a different tactic. Half-truth lying. “My… My house is way on the other side of town. And my parents are out of town for a while, I forgot my key, too. So I can’t exactly go home, now.”

Ascentia got a bit of a grin on her face, “Well, I suppose you could stay at my place tonight… for a price.”

Blushing hard, Twilight felt she had a good notion of what it was. At the same time, she was also very curious as to how Ascential lived in this world. “Um… what’s the price?”

In response, Ascentia snaked a hand up Twilight’s skirt and grabbed her ass, “You won’t get any sleep.”

“Ah!” Twilight squeaked, jumping a bit. “...O-Okay… I didn’t want to leave you hanging, anyway…”

“Leave me hanging? What are you, 12?” Ascentia half laughed, taking Twilight by the shoulders, “Come, let’s get you into bed.”

Blushing more, Twilight smiled a bit, “Lead uh, lead the way.”

Twilight was led into a small apartment in a high-rise not far from the school. A single-room apartment that looked like it had been very well taken care of.

“You live here?” Twilight asked.

“Yes,” Ascentia said, throwing her bag aside, “I moved out of my parent’s house when I was 15.”

“How do you afford this place?” Twilight asked.

“A few odd jobs, most of them unsavory,” Ascentia replied.

“Oh…” Twilight rocked back and forth on her feet a bit, unable to help but realize that this was a bit similar to Ascentia’s alcove back in Equestria. Not by much, just in apartment form. “It’s really cozy.”

As she praised Ascentia’s lodgings, she took notice of a stack of papers on the coffee table. With words in large prints like “Past Due” and “Final Notice” amidst a sea of budget spreadsheets. It suddenly dawned on her that this Ascentia led a very stressful life, different from the high-rank and infinite powers of her Equestrian self. From the looks of the condition of the apartment seemed to tell as much as well. While Ascentia kept it clean and tidy, her furniture and bedding had certainly seen better days with wears in the fabric. If she didn’t know any better, she would almost assume Ascentia was living far below the poverty line.

She did the math in her head and realized that she probably spent all day at school, all evening working, and all night sleeping. She’d probably not had a moment to herself in quite a while.

...Until tonight.

Looking to the taller girl, Twilight felt a rip in her heart. She went to her, bringing her arms around her waist. There wasn’t much she could say or do to help, but at least hoped to let her know she was there for her.

Ascentia hugged her in return, taking the opportunity to squeeze her slim frame, before throwing her back onto her bed.

“Whoa!” Twilight squeaked, but smiled anyway. It reminded her all too much of back home. “Still eager, are you?”

“Oh sweetheart you have no idea how badly I need this,” Ascentia smirked coyly, “By morning, you won’t be able to walk straight.”

‘Not like I already couldn’t! I have to say though, this is all sounding so familiar… Kind of like back when I first wanted to try this...’ Twilight thought, “Then, I’m happy to be of service.”

Leaning over her and pushing her back against the pillows, Ascentia captured Twilight’s lips in hers as her hand began groping around her chest, taking a hold of Twilight’s soft breasts through her blouse.

Moaning into her lips, Twilight ran her hand up to course through her hair. Her legs were spread apart, while she worked to kick off her boots again. “I should…. finish you off first,” she managed between kisses.

“There’ll be… plenty of… time for that,” Ascentia replied, sliding her hand down and reaching up Twilight’s skirt to pinch her moistening lips.

“A-Ah!” Twilight squeaked, trembling, “W-What are you going to do?”

Ascentia chuckled and reached for an object from her bag. Twilight instantly recognized it as a strapon. Similar to the one she’d used on the other Ascentia, “You top or bottom?” she asked.

“I-I can go either way…” Twilight mumbled. Depending on the position, she was on top due to her much smaller size, but for now, the sky was the limit. “Whatever works for you.”

“Oh Twilight, I hope you’re not planning to say ‘Whatever works for you’ to every question I ask tonight, otherwise you might find yourself naked and tied to the flagpole outside,” she said with a grin.

Now Twilight pouted a bit, “Oh, come on… I wouldn’t do that!” But she couldn’t keep a smile from stretching at her lips.

Ascentia laughed as she kicked off her boots and tossed her haphazardly assembled skirt aside, latching the toy to her pelvis and making a spinning motion with her finger, “Turn around, that cute ass is mine.”

Nodding, Twilight blushed and turned over onto her stomach, raising her not-flank into the air a bit. “Okay, just be gentle… It’s been a while since I used that toy…”

Ascentia lined the toy up with Twilight’s backside, stopping for a moment, “You ever taken it up the ass before?”

“...Yes…” Twilight mumbled, recalling that experience all too well.

Ascentia smiled at the idea that this girl had been around a few times, and sunk the toy deep into her dripping pussy, watching her arch back in response as she drew out and thrust back into her again. Her body was so lithe and toned and her hair smelled absolutely beautiful. Taking in the deep, lavender scent, Ascentia sighed as she thrust into Twilight with more vigor than before, glad that her only leisure time in months was with her.

‘I don’t know who you are or why you came to Canterlot High, but goddamn are you gorgeous,’ she thought.

“A-Aaahh… oooohhhh! Yes…! Ascentia, yes! Rut me hard! Rut me hard!” Twilight all but squealed, clutching onto one of the pillows. She couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of relief to actually have fingers to clutch onto something when her hooves couldn’t.

Ascentia gripped Twilight’s ass in her fingers and slammed into her harder, complying with Twilight’s request, Digging the toy as deep into her as she could go, she growled at the sound of this sweet sounding voice begging her to rut her, the strap of her toy rubbing against her viciously as she pounded into Twilight with all the forceful regard of an animal.

“Y-Yeah…! Yeah!” Twilight cried, her entire form trembling from the immense pleasure rushing through her. She panted, moaning and yelling with glee. “Go harder, harder! Buck me hard, you wonder woman!”

Ascentia flicked a switch under the toy and it began buzzing with the force of… something that buzzes a lot, I don’t have the patience to find a metaphor and frankly you all reading this are too busy clopping to even care anyway. So fuck poetic license right in it’s ivory glaive.

Where was I? OH! Right…

Ascentia thrust into her lavender lover harder with the added force of the toy’s vibrations, whispering “Scream for it, you sultry little minx.”

“Yes! YES….! Make me cum, make me cum harder!” The lavender girl screeched, the pleasure skyrocketing by this point, “A-Almost….!”

Ascentia reached underneath and and pinched her clit between her fingers as she thrust into the girl harder than before, pressing her face directly into the pillow, leaning back and moaning herself.

“Mmmm-mmmm!!!” Twilight screamed, muffled against the pillow she was pushed into. She came hard, her juices dripping onto the strapon and down her thighs. Ascentia pulled the toy out of her, leaning down to lick the cum out of her and off her legs, tasting her sweet yet tangy juices for herself, moaning at the sensation.

“Mmm…” Twilight all but collapsed onto her stomach, turning her head against the pillow and laying her cheek against it. “Wow, oh my gosh…”

“You’re not done yet,” Ascentia said with a grin, “We have all night.”

Giggling, Twilight rolled onto her back, “Well, Ascentia… bring it on.”

Gripping Twilight’s legs and lifting them, Ascentia angled the toy lower, pressing against her back entrance, “Oh, I intend to.”

Without waiting for an acknowledgement, Ascentia thrust her hips forward, burying the toy hilt-deep in Twilight’s ass.

“YEOW!” Twilight screeched at the sudden intrusion of pain, clutching at the sheets beneath her. ‘I don’t remember it being so painful! Not to mention it being THAT tight! Is it tighter on a human?! Either way that HURT!’

“You did say to ‘Bring it on’” Ascentia snickered, kneading Twilight’s thighs as she slowly drew the toy out to the tip.

“I’m not...u-used to it….” Twilight uttered, panting a little.

“Now’s the chance,” Ascentia smiled as she thrust back in, hoisting her legs higher and licking her inner thigh.

Twilight groan in pain, lolling her head along the pillow and trying to get used to the feeling. “Nnnghhh….”

Dragging out again, Ascentia gave her clit a soft rub, before thrusting back in, “It took a while my first time as well,” she smiled, leaning down and giving her belly a kiss.

The feeling made Twilight giggle, her belly sinking inward, “Hee… I’ll be fine… You can keep going…”

Taking Twilight for her word, Ascentia quickly rose in pace, thrusting into her ass quickly and harshly, watching her face contort in response.

‘Okay, bad idea! Bad idea! No… No, it’s fine! It’s not pain! It’s not pain! I’m fine! Just get used to it, like you always did… That’s it...’

Taking a few deep breaths, Twilight managed to at least get used to the feeling, as well as making a note to herself to lubricate any toys next time. She breathed again, staring to feel more of a pleasured response than pained. “Oooohhh...yeah…”

Smiling at Twilight’s reaction, Ascentia thrust into her faster, giving her clit a pinch as she kept one leg aloft with her free hand, “Wow, you make the hottest noises, Twilight.”

The sentiment made Twilight blush, considering she’d heard that before, just in different wordings, “Th-Thank you…”

Giving her ass a sharp slap, Ascentia redoubled her efforts, thrusting harder as she slipped two fingers past Twilight’s sopping lips, herself coming close to the edge from Twilight’s gorgeous voice and the strap rubbing against her.

The pleasure heightened, feeling less like pain at every second. Clutching the sheets with her fingers, Twilight moaned and panted hard. She squeezed her eyes shut, opening them every now and then to gaze up at the lovely teenager before her. All the while she managed to smile, further enjoying this sexual play.

Taking her hand off her leg, Ascentia grabbed Twilight’s neck and pulled her up to lock lips with her, grinding the strapon into her as hard as she could as her tongue danced with hers. Twilight heard a moan into the kiss, wrapping her arms around Ascentia’s shoulders, feeling her tense up as if resisting the urge to recoil.

“Sorry… sore… from… kicking… Shimmer’s… ass…” Ascentia explained while trying to viciously make out with her at the same time, “God… you’re so… hot…”

“Sorry…” Twilight apologized, nuzzling her, “That was still amazing, what you… m-managed to do in overtaking her…”

“Been… wanting to… do that… for years…” Ascentia said, thrusting hard into her, “Bitch… had it… coming…”

‘All things considered, I can’t say I disagree with her...’ “She really needed… a lesson in… c-consequences…”

“Maybe I… should have… done to her… what she was going… to do… to Fluttershy,” Ascentia said, smacking Twilight’s ass again, “What I’m… doing to… you now…”

“Ah!” Twilight squeaked, trembling a bit, “I-I don’t know… Th-That’s a bit… m-much… don’t you think?”

“I couldn’t… anyway… Shimmer doesn’t… do it for me…” Ascentia panted between thrusts, smacking Twilight’s ass harder, absolutely loving her firm, yet soft frame.

“M-Me… neither…” Twilight agreed, clutching to her shoulders for support. “A-Ascentia… I think I’m… g-going to cum…”

“Do… it,” Ascentia grunted, thrusting into her as hard as she could, rubbing her clit as quickly as possible, wanting to hear this girl moaning again.

Squealing and moaning loudly, Twilight nearly fell back as the ecstatic pleasure overtook her. “Y-Yes… A-A-Ascentia….! Yeah….!!!” She cried as she came all over her hand.

Ascentia looked down at her as she casually licked Twilight’s juices off her hand, “God, I could listen to that all night,” she said, lightly patting Twilight’s ass, “Where on Earth do you come from?”

‘Equestria. A world connected to here through a portal. I’m actually a pony! I was born a unicorn, but now I’m an alicorn, a Princess, and the crown in my bag is the Element of Magic! “...Uh….” Twilight’s eyes shifted, over to a map of the city taped to the wall, “D-Downtown! Near the river…”

Ascentia stopped licking her hand, and glanced to the map, “That isn’t a map of this city, Twilight.”

“...It’s not? Oh, my bad. It’s so dark, I can’t see it very well!” Twilight said sheepishly.

Ascentia leaned back, the strapon still buried deep in Twilight’s ass, “You’re not from around here, are you?”

Sighing, the lavender girl shook her head, “...No, I’m not. But I can’t tell you why.”

Ascentia looked toward the door, “Are you on the run from someone?”

Twilight shook her head, “No, I’m not. I’m just… I’m from somewhere far from here.”

“Fine,” Ascentia said, pulling out of her and taking the toy off her waist. Twilight’s eyes widened a little when Ascentia popped it into her mouth and began licking it clean while sitting at her desk, “Give me a minute, I just need to check something.”

As Ascentia booted up her computer, Twilight thought she caught a glimpse of her Ponyville friends on the screen before a browser window obscured it. Ascentia spent a few minutes looking at some spreadsheet, before turning the monitor off and returning to the bed, strapon still hanging from her mouth.

“Nwh, whwwr whr we?” she asked, muffled.

“Um…” Twilight looked about with uncertainty, “W-Where did you want to go from there?”

Ascentia popped the dildo out of her mouth, “Was there anything you wanted to do?” she asked with a sly smile.

“...I still want to keep tasting you…” Twilight confessed, her eyes drifting downward, “I didn’t get to finish you properly, anyway.”

Grinning, Ascentia took Twilight by the back of the neck and leaned back against her bedframe, pushing Twilight’s head down with her to stop between her thighs, as if to say “Be my guest.”

Eager, Twilight brought her hands to her hips and happily dove in. She licked along the slit and pried the folds apart, mercilessly devouring at her clit. Humming and moaning, she picked it up where she’d left off earlier, so to speak.

‘I can’t believe it… It’s like she’s actually here… There’s only a few cosmetic changes and a few other things… But it’s like she’s here. But is it still okay? Is it wrong that I’m so excited about all of this?’

Pushing off those thoughts, Twilight just continued to eat at the other girl’s delicious womanhood.

Months upon months of sexual frustration, coupled with hours of being delayed proper gratification, left Ascentia with a bit of a hair trigger. Leaning her head back and placing a hand on the back of Twilight’s head, she let out a lurid, predatory moan as her juices seemed to leak out of her. Running her fingers through Twilight’s soft, sweet smelling hair, her legs curled around her shoulders as a she softly whispered “Oh… I love you…” at a level that implied that Twilight wasn’t meant to hear that.

‘Say WHAT?! Oh no no no no no no no NO! This can’t be happening! She loves me?! Loves me?! She just met me! How does that even work?! Great, now if I leave, she’s going to be left all alone and with a broken heart! What do I do?!’ Twilight thought, panicked. Thankful that Ascentia couldn’t see her face, she lapped up her lovejuices. Sure enough, she did indeed taste the same as she always remembered. ‘I don’t want to leave her, but I don’t know what else I can do… I don’t even want to leave the girls, either… What do I do?’

Ascentia’s moans became more erratic, “Oh god, Twilight, I’m almost there… finally…”

‘Never mind, focus on this! Focus!’

Twilight hummed into her sopping sex, inserting a finger inside of her and pumping her gently, but quickly. Ascentia arched back and nearly screamed, her juices gushing from her like a broken dam. The scream devolved into hysterical pants as Ascentia ground her hips against Twilight’s face.

Overwhelmed, but thrilled, Twilight took it all in eagerly. She kissed her sopping sex after getting her fill, and rose up a bit. “W-Wow… You really came hard…”

“It’s been a while,” Ascentia explained.

A thumping was heard on her apartment wall, as a muffled yell tore through, “Keep it down you whore!”

Ascentia chucked a can at the wall, the clang from the metal striking the plaster loud enough to wake the whole building.

Twilight squeaked, wide-eyed as she stared at the wall, “Sheesh… how rude.”

“They never liked me,” Ascentia replied, stroking Twilight’s hair, “Most of the building doesn’t.”

“...Well, then that’s their loss,” Twilight said, smiling, “I like you…”

“I would assume so, your mouth is dripping with… well, me,” Ascentia chuckled, stroking Twilight’s face as her eyes scanned her naked body, licking her lips.

Twilight noticed, blushing quite a bit. This was indeed going to be a very long night…

Opening her eyes, Twilight looked all around her, trying to make sense of what she was seeing. She was in a classroom, but not like the classes of when she was in Magic Kindergarten or her days in Celestia’s School for Gifted Unicorns. This was one of the classrooms here, in this strange world, in Canterlot High.

She looked out the windows, but for the strangest reason, there was no colour. The outside environment was black and white, like out of an old film or photograph. It didn’t make sense, she was in colour, the classroom was in colour, but the outside was not.

Twilight rubbed her eyes, trying to gather her bearings. Upon seeing her fingers, she was still human and in this world.

Looking around the room, it was empty. The door was closed, but the door window was opaque, making it impossible to see out into the corridor.

She was sitting at one of the desks, while the rest remained empty.

“What’s going on…?” She asked out loud, more to herself than anything.

An eerie sound of footsteps came from the hallway, and Twilight looked up to see Ascentia step through the doorway. Her Ascentia… Val’Kyr Ascentia.

Except… something was still different about her. Her scars were more defined, and glowing slightly and she was looking at Twilight with an air of open disgust.

“A-A-Ascentia…?” Twilight squeaked, feeling more scared than excited, “W-What are you doing here? How did you… even know I was here?”

Ascentia said nothing, her sword appearing in her hand with it’s signature surge of light, looking down at her with the same disgusted look.

“What’s going on?!” Twilight cried, a stab of fear entering her gut. “What are you doing?!”

She twirled her arm back, spinning her sword over her head and bringing it down onto Twilight’s desk, the tip of the sword slicing a nasty cut down the middle of her face.

“AH!!” Twilight screamed, jumping out of her chair and backing away, “Why are you doing this?!”

A strange, crushing force seemed to wrap itself around her body and she was pulled face to face with Ascentia’s glaring face. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the teenage Ascentia smirking from the doorway, before the feeling of cold metal was suddenly shot through her midsection.

Pained, stricken, and scared, Twilight opened her mouth to scream, but no sound came out. Her vision was fading, her entire body was losing connection with her mind, and she felt like she was falling.

Then it all went dark. But she could hear a strange laughter, like a delighted chuckle, along with a strange voice.

“You’ve met with a terrible fate, haven’t you?”

Catapulting in bed, Twilight screamed and thrashed about, kicking at the sheets. The visions didn’t fade, all she could see were the horrid images of her own body stabbed. Bleeding everywhere, falling along the desks and dying slowly. The laughter in her ears didn’t cease, it felt as if it were still happening at that very moment.

“Bad dream?” Ascentia asked from her desk.

“WHAT?! Who goes there?!” Twilight screeched, getting onto all fours and pointing her forehead at her, panting.

“As much as you being on your hands and knees is hot, are you alright?” Ascentia asked, putting down her homework, “What happened?”

After a few moments, the disorientation faded as Twilight could remember where she was. In the humanoid alternate universe, in Ascentia’s apartment, not far from Canterlot High. She’d just had a terrible nightmare. Panting a bit, she realized how silly she looked, considering that humans didn’t move on all fours and that she was no longer a pony.

“I...I… I had a bad dream…” Twilight mumbled, managing to position herself to sit.

Ascentia nodded and returned to her homework, “Did you want to talk about it?”

Biting her lip, Twilight wrung her fingers nervously, “I… I …. I don’t know how I can explain it… It just… I was just… dreaming of really weird…” She looked around the room, trying to find some kind of an answer. “Really weird…” Her eyes fell on a colourful poster with the title Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, “uh… space wars and stuff… I was killed in the dream and woke up from it…”

“Sounds grisly,” Ascentia replied, “Are you going to be okay?”

“Yeah, sure…” Nodding, Twilight then lay back on the bed and rolled onto her side, staring blankly at the wall. ‘Ascentia was… disgusted with me… she wasn’t even angry… Just… really disgusted. Like I did something horrible… and she tried to KILL me for it. I did just… cheat on her… with her other self, but still cheating. What have I done? Just because it’s her? Just because I wanted to help someone else? Just because? I don’t even know anymore! Frankly she has every right to be upset with me! I can’t believe I did that to her! What’s wrong with me? After three years together, did it mean nothing? Of course it did…! So why did I do this?! Why?!’

“We should get going then,” Ascentia replied, “School starts in twenty minutes.”

As Ascentia and Twilight were heading up the steps of Canterlot High, four very large boys crowded around them.

“You the one who got Sunset Shimmer arrested last night?” they asked.

“I am,” Ascentia said with a grin, “Not her.”

One of them made a motion to Twilight that said “Get moving”

Twilight could see the portal behind them. It would close today, and now that she had her crown she needed to go home or she’d be stuck here for another thirty moons.

“Go on, Twilight,” Ascentia said with a smirk, “I’ll be fine.”

Twilight nodded and stepped away, knowing that Ascentia could certainly handle herself regardless of the universe. Behind the cover of Sunset Shimmer’s cronies, Twilight was unseen as she stepped through the portal to Equestria.

The vortex surrounded her once more, but Twilight couldn’t even get caught up and enjoying it. She had too much on her mind then, too much to think about and to do. But she had done her job, she got the Element of Magic back, and Sunset Shimmer was being taken care of. What more was there that she could do? Thirty moons was two years, it would be impossible to explain all of that.

Eventually, she came out through the portal, landing on the floor of the room. Rubbing her head, she stood up, pushing herself to her feet. But the moment she tried to stand on her legs, she wobbled and fell over, landing on her forehooves.

“...Wow, so I made it back…” Twilight murmured to herself, looking over her hooves, then turning around to face the portal. Despite everything that came to be, it was still absolutely surreal to have gone through such an interesting experience.

“Finally!” Spike hopped off her back, looking relieved, “It’s good to be home!”

She didn’t have a chance to breathe before she was caught in a group hug by her friends, while Luna, Celestia, Cadance, and Ascentia watched with smiles on their faces.

“You did it, Twi-Twi!” Pinkie exclaimed happily, “You made it back!”

“We’re certainly glad you made it there and back safely, dear!” Rarity smiled brightly.

Applejack nodded, “Ah cain’t believe ya did it! But o’ course, we wouldn’t have expected anythin’ less from ya, Twi!”

“Oh, it’s wonderful that you made it, Twilight…” Fluttershy said, looking relieved, “We’re all so relieved.”

Rainbow Dash nudged her in the side, grinning, “That was pretty awesome! Glad you made it back in one piece!”

Ascentia moved forward to greet her herself, when something shot from the portal and splattered itself onto the woman’s face. Wiping the strange liquid off her cheek, the others saw that it was blood.

Ascentia took a whiff of it, looking closely at it, “This is mine… Twilight why is my blood on the other side of that portal?”

“Uh….” Twilight gave a sheepish, slightly worried smile as she managed to release herself from her friends. “That’s a… really long story. But the gist of it is… it’s you. You know, another you. The alternate version of yourself.”

Ascentia looked at the blood further, “Not anymore,” she said, wiping it on her cloak, “Besides that, are you alright? Were there any complications?”

“Nope! Well, not the way you think, but I got it back!” Twilight indicated to the Element of Magic on her head.

Ascentia smiled, kneeling down to stroke her mane, “That’s always good to he-”

She drew her fingers back to find them sticky, Twilight’s mane matted with…

“I see you had a little fun while you were there,” she said with a smirk.

“AH!” The alicorn squealed, earning questioning looks from everypony else. ‘I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to, I swear! It was with you, I swear!’

Ascentia wrapped one arm around her, “C’mon, you look like you could use a hot shower.”

Twilight blushed heavily, but followed her out of the room, while her friends followed behind them.

“So who was it with?” Ascentia asked, “The dead girl, or someone else?”

“...It was you, the other you…” Twilight mumbled, looking downward.

Ascentia laughed heartily, “Should have expected,” she said as she scratched Twilight behind the ear.

Naturally, Twilight giggled with pleasure, “Y-You don’t-ooh, lower!-mind?”

“Of course not,” Ascentia replied, “When you die in ten thousand years, I’ll likely be training your Bodiement as my apprentice. Mortal life is short, enjoy it. There’ll be plenty of time to be monogamous when you’re dead.”

A little smile curled at Twilight’s lips. It seemed that her vicious nightmare was nothing more than her subconscious fearing the worst due to the unknown. “I guess I can’t argue with that…”

Ascentia smiled while her friends chuckled behind them.

“Ooh, looks like somepony’s gotta crush on two girls at once,” Applejack teased.

Twilight pouted a bit, blushing, but remained walking anyway.

“Oh, she does. She definitely does!” Rarity cooed, watching Twilight blush.

Shaking her head a bit, Twilight just smiled. At least she’d have a very interesting story to tell her friends.

Author's Notes:

Well, this all started from a silly drabble. But we played with the idea of Twilight running into an Ascentia within the Equestria Girls universe. :D And... it just evolved from there! XD

Stay tuned for part two, which is the BIG stuff!
