“Ok, are we done making me pass out already?” Tara asked getting up.
“That depends. Are you gonna freak out if you see my wings again?” Lauren asked with a grin.
“No, after seeing them once, I should be fine.”
“Good.” Rainbow spoke out. “We wouldn’t want you to pull another ‘Rarity’ on us.”
“Is there something you would like to discuss?” Rarity asked with a tone of irritation.
“Actually there is, but not with you.” Rainbow then looked at Lauren. “So you wanna get back to those flying lessons from where we left off?”
“I don’t know Rainbow Dash, What if people see me?”
“Nah, don’t worry about it. You’ll be fine!”
“Uh… Lauren?” Tara said.
“Rainbow, I think people will question a flying person.” Twilight cut in.
“They won’t notice us if we’re over the clouds, Twilight.” Rainbow said rolling her eyes.
“What?? But we’re not going to start that high are we?” Lauren asked a little nervous.
“Lauren!!” Tara yelled.
“What??” Lauren snapped turning to Tara.
“What are we going to do about tomorrow?”
“Why, what’s tomorrow?” Twilight asked.
“The convention! People are expecting to see you there. How do you think they would take seeing you with wings Lauren?” Tara asked looking a little paranoid.
“Shoot, I almost forgot! I suppose I could find something to hide my wings… something remotely comfortable.”
Rarity’s eyes just shot open this is the perfect opportunity to spread my designs to others! Once Lauren goes to the convention with what I have prepared for her, people will know my genius! “I can prepare something for you to wear Lauren.”
“Really? But you’ve never designed dresses for humans before.” Lauren said.
“Whoa, wait a second.” Rainbow Dash interrupted “What convention are you talking about?”
Laurens eyes practically shrunk… if they could in this world. Oh great… what can I tell her? I can’t just say ‘It’s a convention with a bunch of people who are fans of your show’ or something like that. Everyone would freak out! Well, maybe not Rainbow Dash. She’d probably like the attention. “Uh… it’s sort of work related.”
“Oh, could we see where you work?” Twilight asked.
“Well, I don’t know if that’s such a good idea… it’s normally for people who-…” Lauren paused for a second looking around. “Where’s Pinkie Pie?”
“I don’t know, wasn’t she just here a minute ago?” Twilight asked.
“I haven’t seen her either.” Luna added.
“Maybe she’s in the kitchen…?” Fluttershy said in a questioning tone.
“I’ll go check.” Applejack said walking to the kitchen.
It’s probably nothing Lauren. Lauren thought to herself, I mean I really doubt that Pinkie Pie would go out like-
“She’s gone!” Applejack exclaimed running back.
THIS! “What do you mean she’s gone??”
“Ah mean, she’s not here!”
“I know that!” Lauren yelled getting more frustrated.
“Hey don’t worry, I’ll just fly around town, find Pinkie, and bring her back here.” Rainbow said about to take off, but the Twilight grabbed her leg.
“Are you crazy??” Twilight exclaimed. “People here will notice us for sure!”
“People are gonna notice Pinkie Pie a lot more than us if anyone sees her Twilight!” Rainbow exclaimed, and then she took off, through the window.
“Rainbow Dash, get back here!!” Lauren exclaimed. Oh just PERFECT! Now there are two ponies er… people from Equestria out in public! If word gets out about this, it could mean serious trouble!
~~~~~~~~~~
“Pinkie Pie!!” Rainbow called out. This is just great… This place is huge! How the hay am I supposed to find her?? As Rainbow is flying she looks around at all the buildings and people below her. Wow… this place is awesome! I don’t see what the big deal is; people won’t even notice me from this height. But as Rainbow Dash was flying she started to hear a loud noise nearby. She looked around and saw a plane coming closer. What the hay is that…? But as she got closer to the plane, she could see people inside of it, and one girl was staring at her, practically with her jaw dropped. “Oops…” Hoping that no one else would see her, she flew in the opposite direction of the airplane. After only a few minutes of flying, however, Rainbow already started to feel tired. “What’s going on here?? I never get exhausted this fast!” Since she had no other option, she was forced to land somewhere. So she landed in a place where no one was around and decided to look for Pinkie Pie on foot.
“Great… How am I supposed to find her now??” Before Rainbow Dash proceeded further, she quickly hid her wings under her shirt so that no one would spot them. I sure hope people don’t notice these wings as easy as I noticed Laurens… But as Rainbow was thinking about Lauren…
“Rainbow Dash!!” a familiar sounding girl yelled and tackled Rainbow with full force. “I’m so glad you’re here Rainbow Dash! Did you come to play too? This place is really cool isn’t it? I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited in my life! Well, maybe except for that one time when I-…”Pinkie was interrupted when a hand covered her mouth.
“Pinkie Pie! Why in the world would you run off like that? Do you want someone to see you?? Do you know how worried you made everyone??” Rainbow Dash kept asking questions.
“But Dashie, I was BORED! There was nothing to do!” Pinkie whined.
“Well you could’ve just asked Lauren to do something instead of just freaking us out like that!”
“I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to make everyone worry.” Pinkie said with regret.
Rainbow sighed “It’s fine Pinkie, let’s just head back before they get too worried.”
“Alright.”
“But uh…”
“What?”
“No flying though…”
“Huh?” Pinkie asked confused. “Why not? It’ll be faster!”
“I know that, it’s just that flying in this world is a lot different from flying back home. It’s harder to stay in the air longer here…”
“So we’re just gonna walk back to Lauren’s house?” Pinkie asked.
“Guess so….”
“But Dashie, how are we gonna find her house?”
“Wait you don’t know the way back!?” Rainbow exclaimed.
“Of course I don’t! This isn’t exactly Ponyville you know.” Pinkie said. “Well, we better start looking.”
With that, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie made their way into town, trying not to get attention towards them. But it was impossible to not notice a girl with rainbow colored hair, and another girl with pink cotton candy-like hair. Everyone that they passed gave them strange looks; some with confusion, some with shock, and some with just plain disgust. Rainbow Dash was the first to start feeling annoyed by all the weird looks. Pinkie Pie, however, didn’t look like she was annoyed at all. Just as Rainbow was about to snap, something caught her eye, actually, someone. It was a boy wearing a particularly strange shirt. Strange because she saw a picture of her pony self on the shirt. “Hey, where did you get that?”
“Oh, this?” The boy asked pointing at his shirt. “I bought it online.”
“On what?”
“On the computer…?” the boy said quizzically.
“Computer? Oh right, that thing Lauren showed us…” Rainbow said rubbing her head.
“I see you’re ready for the convention tomorrow.” The boy said looking at Rainbows hair.
“Convention? Oh, no I’m not going. I don’t work there.”
“Work? The convention isn’t work.”
“Not work? But Lauren told us that it was work related!” Pinkie cut in.
“What?” the boy asked. “Did this Lauren even tell you what kind of convention it’s gonna be?”
“No…” Pinkie and Rainbow said at the same time. “She just told us it was work related.” Rainbow said.
“It’s going to be a brony convention. I figured since you’re both dressed like that, you were fans of the show too.”
“What show?” Rainbow asked.
“My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic…?” the boy said. “Wow you must really be out of the loop.”
Wait a second… that’s the name of the story Lauren showed us! “So I’m guessing that one of the characters is Rainbow Dash, right?” Rainbow asked.
“Eeyup, along with Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Rarity, and my personal favorite, Pinkie Pie.”
Pinkie Pie then let out a huge grin that kind of started creeping out the boy for a little bit. “Uh… is Pinkie Pie your favorite pony too?” he asks.
“My favorite??” Pinkie exclaimed. “Pinkie Pie is-!” Pinkie was cut short when Rainbow covered her mouth. “Mmph!” was all Pinkie could let out.
“Anyway…” Rainbow said with a sort of frustrated look. “What sort of stuff do you do at these ‘brony conventions’?”
“Well, it’s kind of hard for me to explain… so why don’t you just come with me and my friend to the convention and see for yourself?”
“Sorry, but we really need to get back to Lauren.” Rainbow said still covering Pinkie’s mouth. “Actually, do you think you can help us find her…?” Rainbow asked sheepishly. “We’re kind of lost.”
“Sure, I have a GPS in my-“ the boy was cut off.
“What’s a GPS?” Rainbow asked a little confused.
“…You’re kidding right?”
Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie both shake their heads no. “Look, whatever, can you please just take us??”
“Alright. alright. Where does she live?” the boy asked.
“Well, we don’t know…” Rainbow said rubbing the back of her head.
“Okay…? Well then, what’s her last name?”
“Her last name? Oh! Faust.” Rainbow said finally uncovering Pinkie’s mouth. But as soon as Rainbow said Lauren’s last name, the boy went completely wide-eyed, and mouth agape. “…what?”
“Y-You know Lauren Faust?!” the boy exclaimed.
“Yeah…? We’re like best friends.” Rainbow said. “So can you take us to her?”
“Uh..!” The boy said snapping out of it finally. “Sure, just follow me to my car and I can take you there in a jiffy.”
“His what?” Rainbow whispered to Pinkie.
“I think he said his car… maybe it’s like a train!” Pinkie whispered back.
“This place is really weird…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“This is REALLY bad…” Lauren said to herself pacing.
“Don’t worry Lauren, I’m sure Rainbow Dash can find her.” Twilight said reassuring her.
“I’m not worried about that, Twilight. I’m more concerned on what’s gonna happen if someone finds out who they are!”
“Whatever do you mean, Lauren?” Rarity asked a little confused. “Are we really that well-known here?”
Lauren stayed silent for a moment. I guess I don’t have any other choice… I have to tell them what the convention is really about. “Alright, you know that convention we were talking about earlier?”
“Yes, you said it was work related.” Twilight said.
“It’s… not really work related.”
“Huh?” Twilight said tilting her head. “What do you mean?”
“Lauren…” Tara cut in. “Are you sure it’s such a good idea to tell them?”
“I already started Tara. I can’t go back now. No more secrets.” Lauren said turning her head back to the four plus Luna. “The convention is called ‘Canterlot Gardens’; it’s a brony convention.”
“What’s a brony…?” Fluttershy asked.
“A brony,” Tara cut in. “Is basically a boy who likes the show that Lauren showed you, and Canterlot Gardens is basically a big meeting where a lot of bronies come and well... have fun! You girls are very famous here.”
“Which is why,” Lauren continued. “I’m really worried about people finding out about Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash. The fans would probably swarm them!”
“Is everyone on your planet a fan??” Twilight asked with a concerned look.
“No…”
“Well then don’t worry so much, Lauren. I really doubt that they would run into a fan.” Twilight said, then she thought to herself for a little bit. “Wow… a convention based on us.”
“Ahm havin’ a hard time believin’ it myself.” Applejack said.
“I hope Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie make it back ok…” Fluttershy said with a worried tone.
“Don’t worry Fluttershy, I’m sure that-…” Twilight paused when they all heard the door unlock. “Uh… who’s coming in?”
“Lauren, I’m home!” the voice called from behind the door.
“Craig!!” Lauren yelled.
A/N
Sorry for the long wait everypony, but it's finally here! Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash are separated, and Craig is about to walk though the door! What's gonna happen next? Find out in my next chapter. Until then: UnleashedTwilight Signing off!
It's only going to get worse before it gets better, that's all I have to say.
In other news, I just found out I'm a potato. That is all.
Oh I can't wait until they run into John DeLancie
Very intriguing.
NEW CHAPTERRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hmm me thinks there be more fainting afoot
Well he's probably the easiest person in the world to convince that a bunch of imaginary charecters have came back to life.
Oh the convention is going to be a LOT of fun
Also, Craig's time for a faint streak!
I think Twilight is forgetting the all-conquering Law of Funny - If Rainbow were to land randomly in any part of any human population centre, the first human she met would be a brony or pegasister. There's just no way of getting around it.
FWIW, I suspect that Lauren's sudden mutation has been caused by the intrusion of Equestrian magic into the Real World. The magic flow from Equestria to Earth means that she can now use at least some of her abilities and they are manifesting physically too. Once Luna and the Elements go home, things should go back to normal... well, apart from the fact that Tara and Craig now know all about her double life.
"Hi, Craig! Um, this is the Goddess of the Moon... who is also apparently my daughter from a past life... which possibly means that I'm a Goddess, capital G, of an entire universe... not this one though... at least I don't think so... Oh, and these are four of the six Elements of Harmony. By the way, I have wings now... and I'm pretty sure I can do magic... Goddess capital G thing again. I hope that this doesn't affect our relationship?"

I can See AJ and Rainbow backing him up against a wall. "Y'all don't try anythin' Discord!"
"Yeah, we might be in weird bodies but we can still buck your face through the back of your ugly head!"
Ooo! Craig! What are they gonna tell him?
I sense a faint coming on....maybe 2...and then if they go to Canterlot Gardens then I sense about a couple hundred....easily.
Imagine all the brony cameos in this....imagine them all....
Dat story. Also, dem comments. So much yes.
1545854
and I bet DeLancie would be cool enough to actually play the part for his crazed 'fans'
They no not what fear is until they go to that convention.
CLIFF HANGER! Oh well...take your time writing. I look forward to more of this story. I wonder how craig will react and why do I get a bad feeling that the boy might do something bad to the duo...I might be forshadowing this a little too much
As soon as I saw the name of the chapter I knew what was going to happen.
Oh boy...
1545747 I'd feel sorrier for him if he was cornered by bronies and Trek fans. Or bronies who are Trek fans. Imagine the "fun".
I imagine having 3 of them standing around with wings and 4 being able to use magic should be convincing enough that it's real. the conversation with the brony could be strange though.
I will be sitting here at my desk.
Pressing my face against the screen in anticipation.
For the reaction of Craig.
Wait... they came to the world clothed...i hope...if not i would have to wonder who would be talkign to them...and if they are what are they wearing...curosity may kill the cat! but am not cat! just strange to me it hasnt come up (to my knowledge) sorry ignore me if would like.
May a gentle breeze keep you calm during trying times and a warm smile to keep you warm from the cold nature of the world.
Well they should be fine as long as they don't discover fan fiction...or clop...
Got real, Shit has.
I wonder how they'd react if they met John De Lancie, and whoever voiced Nightmare Moon. Epic troll moment for Lauren! Show them an episode of Star Trek TNG with Q!
Ya....
GAHHHHH!!!!!

The next chapter had best come soon.

great reading man. god i love this story
So Craig walks into a bar...which is really Lauren's wing.
And as for the brony...well he is going to be really suprised
That Brony is going to have a major nerdgasm when he discovers just who he's been talking to.
"You know Lauren Faust?" = shock/awe/envy
"You're actually Pinkie Pie?" = head asplode
What is Craig the one who found Pinkie and Dashie?
Story is looking good so far. =3
1545741 You're a potato? Have a hug.
i.imgur.com/L3vo1.png
1548207 And then that brony finds out that Lauren has wings and magic: head asplodes again. But this is a comedy, so he'll live.
This story is built on lolz and little else. MOOOOOOORRRRREEEEE!!!!!
You know, if John De Lancie found out that the ponies are real. He should have a moment where he just say, " Oh no, not again! "
( Just think Q and you mint see what I'm thinking. )
My anticipation for the rest of this story HURTS.
MORE. PLEASE.
I love this story throughout this whole chapter, this was what I was feeling
WHEEEEEeeeeeeeWWWWHHHHHeeeeeeWWWWEEEEEEEE!!!!! I'm so enjoying the ride.
WARNING! WARNING! DANGEROUS LEVELS OF SCEPTICISM AND INTENSE COMEDIC SCENARIOS INBOUND!
Drat. No cameo for me unless they come to Western Canada about two hours west of Vancouver to shop...
CRAIG MCCRAKEN!
i imagine Craig coming in seeing this all and saying 'your not really human?' and faints then wakes up and gets mad he married a alicorn Good Chapter
Um...just to be honest can you please make the chapters a bit more longer?
1554130 While that would be funny, he hasn't been to Equestria so I don't think he will get powers.
Well I'm hyped.
Chocolate's about to hit the fan...
How the brony managed to not recognize the voice of Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash which are very peculiar?
Anyway, great stroy, i love it.
HAHAHAHA! Oh man! I can not wait to see what happens when Craig sees the Mane 6 + Luna! I predict another fainting episode. Good chapter and funny scenes. I thought the part where Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie meet the brony was pretty funny.
- Super-Brony12
Darn it waiting for a new chapter is painful.
Twilight, just because not everyone in the world is a fan doesn't mean there could be there couldn't be lot's of said fans in the city they are at.
Consider the possibilities.

CRAIG MOTHER FUCKING McCRACKEN!!
