Believing that he had fooled the wicked esquilax, Mirror Rapid laughed. "Why...yes he is. Isn't he? But not to worry he won't be getting out anytime soon. I made sure of that! I just put a little spell on it is all. If he's smart he'll be just fine. But he's not smart for I have most of his intelligence," he announced laughing evilly. Clearing his throat he then returned his attention to the strange creature that for whatever reason decided to accompany him. Definitely a mistake on his end; a mistake he will regret soon enough, thought the wicked Mirror Rapid. "Say, what say we see what else my shiny new amulet can do?"
Good Rapid just helplessly watched as the duo left. "What? No! Don't listen to him! He's just lying to you! I'm the good Rapid not him," Rapid screamed as loud as he could from within his magical bubble prison while he uselessly pounded his forehooves against it.
Hearing his goody goody twin's cries for help, Mirror Rapid teleported himself back in front of the magical bubble housing the unfortunate good Rapid inside. There he mocked and teased him. "Give it up already Rapid. There is no way you are popping my bubble utilizing simple earth pony tactics. Besides I got everypony fooled. Even the greedy esquilax vendor believes me to be you," Mirror Rapid sneered. "Do you really?" good Rapid questioned. Closing his eyes he thought back to the esquilax and the way he acted and behaved all the way up to this point. "Hey what are you doing?" Mirror Rapid demanded. With zero negative influence, good Rapid found he was able to meditate; something that he constantly tried to do only to fail at due to having so much negative energy within. Rapid opened his yellow eyes. "Nothing," he whispered. "At least nothing you need to know about. But the esquilax? Are you so certain you have fooled him into thinking that you're me? Because I'm pretty sure he's just using us both for entertainment purposes or something, I dunno. But you really shouldn't listen to him. But hey look you got what you wanted, your own body! So um how about you let me go and we'll just go our own separate ways? What do you say?" Mirror Rapid just studied him for a moment. "Heh. the esquilax was right about you. You do talk too much. There is no way I am letting you out. You'll just stop my fun and try to capture me if I do. Besides, the esquilax knows better than to use me for his own personal gain and I'll prove it to you. Only one being used around here is you, my friend. Now watch and be amazed as the esquilax and I frame you for everything! See ya, wouldn't want to be ya!"
And with that threat, Mirror Rapid teleported himself back to where the esquilax now stood. "Sorry about that. I had to explain a few things to my evil, mirror self. Had to remind it who's in charge. So what to do first..." Mirror Rapid mused thoughtfully as he looked around at the rather peaceful bazaar. "Ack, I can't take it! It's too nice and peaceful here! But not for long..." Mirror Rapid complained. Spotting a beekeeper's beehive, Mirror Rapid shot a blast of red magic at it causing a swarm of angry bees to rush out. They started to relentlessly chase after ponies with their beekeeper chasing after them with a specialized net in his mouth. Mirror Rapid just laughed at the scene. "That's the funniest thing I have ever seen! But I can do better than that..." Mirror Rapid gazed around the bazaar for something else he could do or change... Both Mirror Rapid's red eyes and the purple amulet glowed as Mirror Rapid spoke a spell that suddenly gave all the food in the marketplace sentient life. The sentient food now began rebelling against the cooks and all the ponies that tried to eat them. Mirror Rapid just watched the chaos unfold before him with glee. "Well now that's more like it," he mused laughing evilly.
When the other left, good Rapid sighed. "He obviously doesn't believe me," he thought as he slid down to the bottom of his bubble. With his back against the bubble, good Rapid again closed his eyes and did the one thing he knew he could do in his current state: meditate. As he meditated he tried to come up with a solution to his problem. But something interfered with his meditation. A sudden noise, a bump, he wasn't sure. But it was enough for him to open up one eye and gaze curiously around. "Hello? Is somepony there?" he asked. Giving his legs a stretch he peeked outside his bubble just in time to see the chaotic scene before him: ponies running for their lives from a swarm of angry bees and chef ponies running from...was that broccoli with legs and arms? How silly and strange and yet... Rapid didn't even need to ask. He already knew what was going on. Hm, Mirror Rapid is working even faster than I thought. But what can I do about it? I'm trapped in here and he scares me... Yes, I'm safe and sound in here, inside my bubble. But what am I saying? All those poor ponies need my help and it doesn't matter how scary and powerful my mirror self is I've got to do something to help! Now how in Equestria do I break this stupid bubble...?
Risking a second look he spotted an only all too familiar hippogriff nestled right in front of his bubble. "Pillow Tock? Is that you? Hey there buddy, how about you get me out of here?" Rapid hissed as loud as he could. 'Oh what luck! Help,' Rapid thought happily to himself. 'Now if he could only get me out of here then we'd really be in business!'
Good Rapid just helplessly watched as the duo left. "What? No! Don't listen to him! He's just lying to you! I'm the good Rapid not him," Rapid screamed as loud as he could from within his magical bubble prison while he uselessly pounded his forehooves against it.
