Transformers and My Little Pony: Equestria Girls

Search for Celestia and Optimus

As soon as Twilight and Bee entered Principle Celestia's office, they could tell that they were on the right path. They always found comfort in Celestia and Optimus' guidance back in Equestria and on Cybertron. These versions - with their flowing pastle locks of blue, lavender and green and curved yellow and blue hair - seemed no different. They both sat behind a desk, wearing a honey coloured blazer and red and blue jacket, and were busy writing something. As usual, they seemed calm and put together. The perfect teachers. And now Twilight and Bee were students again. "How may we help you?" Said Principle Celestia, gesturing for Twilight and her friend to make themselves comfortable. Twilight and Bee were careful to set down Twilight's bag gently so as not to hurt Spike. Bee unzipped the bag a little so he could see. "Um, uh..." Twilight stammered. But Bee hushed her. "I got this." He said and began to talk clearly. "My name is Bumblebee and this is Twilight Sparkle, my friend. We're new here and-" Principle Celestia and Optimus Prime Minister raised their eyebrows at the pair inquisitively. It was probably better to just cut to the chase. Bee continued. "We understand that Fluttershy and Jetstorm found a crown and necklace this morning and gave them to you." "Yes. Vice Principle Luna and Dean Megatron put it somewhere for safekeeping," Principle Celestia said, and smiled. "Why? Were you and your friend here interested in running for prince and princess of the Fall Formal this year?" Asked Optimus Prime Minister. "Prince and Princess of the Fall Formal?" Bee and Twilight asked in unison. They were about to tell the couple that the crown and necklace were actually theirs, but it was intriguing. It seemed that they had princes and princesses in this realm, too. And from the looks of thing back in the hallway, it was possible that Sunset Shimmer and Lockdown were currently reigning. "It's Canterlot High's big autumn dance!" Celestia explained. She motioned to a poster on the wall advertising the event. Pictures of blue balloons and mugs of fizzy drinks adorned the edges, along with all the details of the event. It looked just like the Grand Galloping Gala and the Cybertronian Prime Selection. "We had something like that at our old... school," Twilight said, nodding. "And was there a princess and prince?" Celestia asked, her eyes warm. "Yes, but they weren't exactly students." Bee said while Twilight giggled. It was amusing to be explaining to this Celestia and Optimus that there was a princess and prince at their Canterlot as well. Twilight, of course, left out the fact that it was a pony version of the principle herself and robot version of the prime minister himself. Celestia nodded. "Here at Canterlot High, the students select one of their peers to represent them. She and he receive their crown and necklace at the Fall Formal." Bee and Twilight were starting to get an idea. "Can anyone run for princess and prince?" "Yes, you just need to let the head of the Fall Formal Planning Committee know you'd like to be on the ballot," Principle Celestia said, but she seemed to sense that Bee and Twilight had lots of unspoken questions. "Was there anything else?" "Um, no. That was it," Twilight lied. What were she and Bee supposed to say? Hi, we're actually a pony princess and a giant metal robot from another realm. Can we have the crown and necklace back right now, please and thank you?  Princess Celestia and Optimus Prime smiled. "Well, if you need anything else, our door is always open." Outside in the hallway, Spike popped his doggy head out  of the bag. "Twilight, what are you and Bee doing?! Why didn't you just tell them the crown and necklace were yours and ask for them back?" "Um, well... What if they didn't believe us?" Twilight said. She and Bee knew it was the right choice not to mention the crown and necklace or Equestria to Principle Celestia and Optimus Prime Minister. Based on her earlier interactions with Rainbow Dash, Sideswipe, Jetstorm, Fluttershy, Sunset Shimmer and Lockdown, it was clear that nobody here recognized them at all. And one thing was for sure - they would think anypony or bot that came to Ponyville saying he or she was from a place filled with talking animals that walked on two legs was crazy. "Looks like if we want our crown and necklace back, we'll have to become prince and princess of the Canterlot High Fall Formal." Bee lifted his chin decidedly. "So that's what we're going to do." After all, they had already become a prince and princess back in Equestria, right? How hard could it be? Except they only had a few days. Twilight and Bee looked to Spike. He seemed sceptical about this plan, but it was the only one they had. Now if only they knew how they were ever going to accomplish it.
