Shove the plunger into the toilet and go to town. The key is to get a seal between the plunger and the toilet bowl around the exit area. This is what will hopefully allow you to 'move' the water and shift whatever is blocking the pipes. It helps to have enough "water" in the toilet to cover the plunger base. This may involve taking the scary risk of flushing the toilet, but without enough liquid in the toilet, you're apt to make a big splash.

Why does the water move around in one toilet when the other toilet is flushed?
There are two main reasons... 1. If the toilets are mounted back-to-back on opposite sides of a wall, some of the movement can be attributed to mechanical transmission of vibration from one to the other due to a structural connection. 2. Suction in the drain. Toilet drains have vents that allow air to move in and gas to move out. If the vents are improperly installed or get clogged they can create a suction in the drain pipe that jiggles the water in other toilet bowls. 3. The theory that this movement is caused by Toilet Gnomes becoming jealous of the attention that other Toilet Gnomes are getting and then scrambling around in a panic is false.

How do you relocate a drain in a concrete slab?
Change how? Move the location, you bust out the concrete and move it. Replace or repair the flange that the toilet hooks to. Cut the existing flange off flush with the floor and install a new repair flange. They can be brass or steel. You can use a PVC one that fits in the drain and seal it with a wax ring under it and screw it to the floor. If you are working with cast iron flange and the slots where the bolts are supposed to go is broken out, they make a repair piece for this. It is a 3/4 inch wide by 3-4 inch long crescent shape piece that slides under the flange and the bolt that holds the toilet fits into it. You may have to chip out a little concrete along the edge to get these under the flange.
