The Invention
"Spike, I can't find Twilight anywhere! Oh, I'm so worried! Please tell me you know where she is!" cried a worried Pinkie Pie as she knocked on Twilight Sparkle's door. She had been looking all over town but there was no trace of her friend. Just one hour ago, early in the morning, she was in Twilight's home talking to her, but it seemed the purple unicorn didn't care to speak. She just decided to leave, while Pinkie was still there, her only words being that she had to go.
Soon after he heard her panicking, a tired Spike opened the door. "Twilight told me she had to do something," he said, "and I didn't question her. She seemed like she was really excited. Look, right now, I just want to sleep. I'm sure Twi will be back in a few."
"Spike! She's missing!" yelled Pinkie.
"I know. But she wouldn't ditch us all just like that. She'll come back with something really cool I'd bet. Let's just give her some time." Spike said, hoping to reassure the pink pony in front of him.
"Spike-" Pinkie tried to say something back but she knew he was probably right. She understood the point he was making. Her friend would be back for them. The pink pony just wanted her back right at that moment. Perhaps she was being too rash.
"Now, I need more sleep." Spike yawned.
"Oki doki loki! Sorry for bothering you." Pinkie replied. In reality though, she wasn't. She was truly afraid something bad had happened. But she knew Spike was too tired to help her.
Next she asked Rainbow Dash for help. "Dashie! Something bad is happening right now!"
Rainbow Dash perked up. She was always ready to help anypony. "What is it Pinkie?" she quickly asked in response.
"Twilight is missing! I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to find her and it's really really really really bad!" Pinkie yelled.
"Well did you, I don't know, check her house?" The blue Pegasus jokingly replied.
"Yes Dashie, I did! But Spike was just too tired to help, instead he just said he knew she'd be back but I don't know about that!" Pinkie said with a very serious tone. Her heart was pounding, and she legitimately had no idea where Twilight could have been.
"Pinkie, Spike is right. She wouldn't ditch us, she'll be back shortly, I'm sure of it." Dash said.
"Okay Dashie, I guess I can take both of your words for it." Pinkie Pie responded, once again not fully meaning what she just said.
At this point she was terrified. She thought somepony had stolen her good friend. She was going mad. So she felt the only thing she could do
was to keep asking for help. She went to Rarity, Applejack, and lastly Fluttershy. It seemed no pony knew where Twilight was.
After she left Fluttershy's cottage, Pinkie noticed almost every pony in town was huddled around the bridge. She didn't know what to think of it. Why would they all be standing around like this? The first thing she thought was maybe they found Twilight dead. She was so scared so she ran as fast as she could through the crowd. And what she saw amazed her.
A massive nice-looking spaceship was towering over everypony. Twilight Sparkle was behind a podium in front of the giant spacecraft. Pinkie was stunned. She realized what Twilight needed to leave for. She was finishing a vehicle to fly into space!
"And so I welcome you all, everypony big and small, to board the Twilight Voyager!" Twilight Sparkle announced in a very gleeful manner. She knew this invention was perhaps the most advanced vehicle anypony had ever seen. In fact, even she could hardly comprehend it. This spaceship would put her in the history books. As well as give joy and wonderment to everypony who would choose to board it.
Pinkie Pie simply could not believe her eyes. She was frozen, she couldn't even think straight.
"WHOA! A real life spaceship! That is so cool! I bet it's really fast and everything! Wow!" exclaimed Rainbow Dash.
Pinkie Pie then slid back into her conscious self. She turned around to see all of her best friends frozen just like she was. They had followed her here!
"Anypony is allowed to enter, for thirty bits! That's right! Only THIRTY BITS!" Twilight proudly said.
"I don't believe my eyes, girls. This is the most amazing thing I ever seen!" Applejack said ecstatically.
"Simply fabulous!" Rarity proclaimed.
"Oh my!" Fluttershy whispered.
"Everypony, come on in and experience the joy of true space travel!" Twilight called out with an obvious tone of pride.
"This the most beautifully amazing piece of artwork I've ever seen! It's really really really really really really amazing Twilight!" Pinkie pie shouted out to her unicorn friend.
"Oh, thank you so much Pinkie!" Twilight said slightly blushing.
The girls were in sheer awe. No pony, even after looking at it for so long, could fully understand it. They had never seen something so incredible in all of their lives.
