Correction (a MLP AU)

Part 1: Destroying the Rainbow Factory: Chapter 1

A/N: I know some of you might be upset with me about the absence, so in between writing and school I've been using Ibis Paint to create the characters as I imagine them, starting with Absentia (Up top).

Did you like it?

Anyway, carry on…

[Absentia's POV]

The moment we landed, everypony fell face down onto the ground while I hovered for a bit before landing. I looked at us - the rag-tag group of ponies trying their best to rewrite the past to change the present.

Or is it rewrite the present to change the future? Time travel's confusing.

I shake my thoughts away, a skill I had to learn back in the Rainbow Factory. I quickly flew to each one of the other ponies, doing my best to wake them. Sweetie Belle just twitched, before rolling over, slipping back to sleep. Apple Bloom swatted my hoof away and mumbled, before turning away from me. Flurry Heart near kicked me in the head. Spike just scooted to the side. Only Zecora woke up.

"Where are we, I have a clue," Zecora said, answering my question before I could ask it. "But I require a little something to prove that it's true."

"That's great," I said, hesitant. "Except, how are we going to do that?"

"To prove that to the past we have gone, a paper I need," Zecora motioned towards the nearby houses."If it's true, then we may be able to remove this plant while it is a seed."

While everyone else was recovering, Zecora and I walked to the nearest building. Zecora looked up at the building, shuddering. She noticed me looking at her weirdly.

"Sugercube Corner is the shop by which we be," she said, turning to face the building again."Here Pinkie's Cupcakes Shop was in our time. Let's go inside and see." Without further ado, she walks into the building.

I shudder before following. Inside it looked like a normal shop. I had no idea what I was expecting, but a normal shop wasn't it. I had expected something that pointed to what will happen, but it was just normal. I looked around, confused. Why did this place feel familiar. I had an image of a filly and her two friends laughing together while buying cupcakes.

I glanced around wildly, trying to figure out where it had come from. I had been born in the Rainbow Factory, so how could I have memories outside of the Factory? I groaned silently and looked around. These stupid problems shall be dealt with later. I looked up at the counter and nearly jumped out of my coat, a similar reaction coming from Zecora.

Standing behind the counter was Pinkamena Diane Pie.

[Sweetie Belle's POV]

When I woke up, I was slightly worried when I noticed Zecora and Scoot- Absentia was not there, when they both walked into the clearing. They were busy arguing before they noticed me awake.

"This argument at a later stage shall we discuss," Zecora cut in, sufficiently silencing Absentia. "Now is it time for us over a decision to fuss."

I was about to ask what she was talking about when Scoot- Absentia cut in.

"You can't possibly be considering telling PINKAMENA DIANE PIE everything that's going on!"

I cringed and jumped as Flurry Heart jumped upright, looking around with wild eyes before she noticed us, visibly relaxing once the memories of yesterday sunk in.

What's this about Pinkie?

We all flinched when Flurry Heart stared at me with wide eyes. I blushed as I realised that I had said that out loud. Whoops.

Absentia sighed and motioned to Zecora. "Zecora suggested that we tell Pinkamena," Flurry Heart's eyes were wider than saucers. "As I was saying, she suggested that we tell her about what happens in the future, but-"

"Somepony call?" A voice echoed from the trees in the direction that Absentia and Zecora had just come from, before a confused Pinkie Pie appeared, looking exactly as she had before she became Pinkamena, Cupcake Master.

We all blocked our ears as Flurry Heart screamed, Pinkie staring wide eyed at her, hooves over her ears.

Flurry's screaming woke Apple Bloom and Spike up, both flinching and covering their ears as Spike shouted for Flurry to calm down.

I winced when I removed my hooves from my ringing ears, looking at Flurry staring aghast at Pinkie, who looked so innocently lost.

The greatest serial killer of the Bloody Six looked as lost as a lost puppy. I never thought I'd see this day.

Spike also looked shocked, before smiling widely and running to Pinkie Pie, giving her a giant hug.

Pinkie Pie looked so lost until she looked closely at him. We had all changed, but Spike was now the same height as anypony else, a teenaged dragon. What's weirder was his wings.

Spike was apparently a special species of dragon. They only develop wings during childhood instead of being born with them. Even though he looks slightly different- well, maybe a lot different, he still stutters when he's nervous about anything. He also still has a habit of scratching the back of his neck, which he's doing now.

At least he had gotten over his crush on Rarity, now that was awkward.

"Spike," Pinkie asked slowly, trying to understand what was going on.

"Pinkie," Spike said slowly, trying to help her stay focused. "Can you call everypony else here, please? We have a LOT to talk about."

That has to be the biggest understatement of the century.

A/N: *evil cackle* well, that was unexpected, wasn't it?

(I'm supposed to be studying, my mom's so gonna kill me when she finds out)

Anyway, I finally finished this chapter (*sarcastic clapping*) yeah, yeah, I know. I'm supposed to be busy with the Tales of Time trilogy, but I hit a weird version of writers block, when I have an idea, but I can't implement it now.

(Yes, Fear. I am well aware that that makes next to no sense whatsoever. I'm a little busy, do you MIND)

Sorry, I'm on babysitting duty again ;-;

I'll try and set the next chapter soon.

Denograde out ;)
