It was an average day in Ponyville. Twilight Sparkle was doing an expiriment in the library.

"Ok, now all I need to do is perform this spell, and I'll have an everlasting plant that can do anything. Here goes nothing..." Twilight said.

With that, the alicorn scrunched up her face tightly. Her horn began to glow brighter and brighter. Twilight whimpered a bit at the intense concentration she had to have.

Just then, Spike walked into the room and saw Twilight with her scrunched up facil expression.

"Uh... Twi? Why do you look constipated?" The dragon asked innocently.

The pony in question gasped at the sudden voice in the room. A great beam of light then shot from Twilight's horn it exploded on the floor, creating ash and dust that engulfed the room.

"Spike! Don't sneak up on me like that! Especially not when I'm doing a bery difficult spell!" Twilight scolded her assistant.

Spike gulped and laughed nervously. "Hehe... sorry?"

But Twilight wasn't listening anymore. The dust had cleared, revealing a brightly glowing swirling plate of blue.

"S-spike... Thats a p-portal..." Twilight stuttered.
