Trained By a Rainbow

1- Dragon Attack

-Princess Twilight POV-

I put the messenger book in the contraption that opened the mirror portal from Equestria to the alternate world. While it was opening my friend, Starlight Glimmer, came up to me.

"Are you sure that this is a good idea?"

I nodded, "I haven't seen them in years. Plus. In the messages Sunset was sending me, I can't help but feel like she's keeping something from me. I know her well enough to know that if I ask she won't tell me, so I'm going over to try and find out."

She sighed, "Alright. But if you do find out and you wish you didn't know, I won't say I told you so."

I laughed a bit then walked in making sure Spike wouldn't know I was going without him.

I tumbled out of the portal and stood up expecting to see the bright Canterlot High with the sun getting ready to set as it was in Equestria, but what I saw broke my heart.

The school was still the three story building it was before, but there were parts that were burnt black. I looked at the sky and it was dark, I breathed in and found out what made it dark. Smoke.

"Twilight!" I sighed in relief as I heard a familiar voice. I looked and saw Applejack with her pair in a pixie cut running towards me from the school, "Twilight, what the hay are ya doing!? Ya know we ain't supposed to be out at this time a day."

"What are you talking about AJ?"

She studied my face then lit up. "Princess Twilight?" she asked and I nodded. Her face became serious and she pulled me toward the door of the school. "Ya shouldn't have come. It's way too dangerous."

"What's going on?" I asked fear rising.

She glared at me for a second witch was unlike her before looking at the entrance again a determined look on her face. "We'll explain inside. Like ah said before, ya shouldn't have come."

She lead me down the halls to the center of CHS where there were multiple other people sitting around together some looking scared, some comforting the scared ones, while others were pacing back and forth.

Applejack lead me to a group in the corner where I recognized people. The light pink hair of Fluttershy, the purple hair and fair skin of Rarity, the hot pink hair and pink skin of Pinkie Pie, the rainbow hair and cian skin of Rainbow Dash, and the me of this world. Where was Sunset?

"Look who ah found by the portal girls." Applejack told them pushing me towards the group.

They looked up and they all gasped as they saw me and I smiled sheepishly. Then the other Twilight quickly stood up and talked quickly but quietly, "What are you doing here? Didn't Sunset tell you about the dragons?"

"What dragons? What are you talking about?"

They all looked at eachother then Rainbow looked at me a pained expression on her face, "She didn't tell you?"

"Tell me what? What's going on? Why did it smell like smoke outside?"

"What are you guys talking about?" I turned and saw Sunset and when she saw me and the other Twilight and a look of surprise and guilt came on her face, "I have some explaining to do. Don't I?"

I nodded with a 'You'd better' face. I wanted an explanation, now.

She took a deep breath then motioned toward the floor. "You might want to sit down. This could take awhile." we all sat in a circle and Sunset continued, "Before I start, you should know that the only reason that I didn't tell you was because I didn't want to worry you. For now, I might as well start from the beginning. It all started around 2 years ago...
