Carpet. >You fall asleep. >The moon sets, the sun rises. >An errant beam of sunlight smacks you in the eyes, and you awaken. >You pick yourself up off the floor, and head back to your plans. >After flicking through a couple pages, you decide that they're probably fine. >You sweep them up and tuck them under your arm. >Time to show the Princesses! >You walk through a nearby wall, and end up in Princess Celestia's room. >She's not there. >You exit the room into a corridor, and wander aimlessly until you bump into the door to the tea room. >You swing the door open. >The chairs and tables are still orbiting the central table, which is good to see. >Celestia and Luna are eating breakfast while they fly around the room. "Hello, Princesses!" >They speak in unison. >"Hello, Anonymous!" "I have something to show you." >They make their way down to you, taking their breakfast with them. >You hand over your plans for the castle, and they start looking through them. "I expect you'll put your best architects and builders and such on the job." >"Anon, just looking at this makes my head hurt." "Why?" >"I'm fairly sure that most of this can't work in regular space." >"Does that triangle have three 90 degree angles in it?" >This could be a problem. "Fine, I'll just have to do it myself." >You think for a bit. "Actually, I think I know somepony that could help! Stay right here!" >You stop being in the tea room >And start being in Sugarcube Corner. >Mr. and Mrs. Cake are at the counter. >They're slightly startled by your appearance, though they recover quickly. >Must come from working with Pinkie all the time. "Where's Pinkie?" >"She's off with her friends today. It's her day off." "Thank you, Mr. Cake." >You sprint through the door, and start looking for a pink fluffball. >The best vantage point would be... >The waterslide! >You skip and prance over to the library, and try to enter it. >The door is locked, but you remember someone told you locks only keep out honest people. "Fourteen times thirty seven equals four and a bit." >The door clicks open, and swings ajar. >You slip in, and head for the window the waterslide connects to. >You jump through, and slide down the waterslide. >All the while, you keep a lookout for Pinkie Pie. >Unfortunately, you haven't found her by the time the slide ends. "Well, that was a waste of time. What now?" >You consult your mental to-do list. >There's a single entry, labelled "Loot dilapidated castle in Everfree Forest" >Eh. May as well. >You climb a tree at the edge of the Everfree Forest, and start leaping from treetop to treetop. >Eventually, this brings you to a large clearing that is mostly occupied by a castle. >You drop down to the ground, and enter the castle. >It's a lot more lively than you would've expected. >Probably stems from the ponies inhabiting it right now. "Hello!" >Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Twilight look at you. >They look a little surprised to see you, but not very. >"Oh, hey Anon. We were about to take a break. Wanna come?" "Sure, why not?" >"We just have to find Spike." "Who?" >So you wander through the castle, getting told who Spike is and looking for him so he can join in. >You find him a minute later. >Apparently he managed to open some sort of white vortex thing, and got sucked in. >The other ponies try to drag him out, and get sucked in themselves. >Since you don't seem to be affected, you reach in before Pinkie can, and pull the ponies out. >You drag the line of ponies out of the room, along with Pinkie, and close the door. Firmly. >You step into the white vortex >And step out into a bleak city. >The sky is the color of an old television tuned to a dead channel, and there's a constant drizzle. >Reminds you of Earth, almost. >You also seem to be on top of a building. >You look over one of the edges, and a building at ground level explodes. >Ponies pour out, alongside some sort of creature with green tentacles. >No, wait, that's just a prehensile mane. >She starts cackling evilly. Probably a villain. >That simply wont do. >You leap off the building, wishing you had coattails or a cape or something that could flap in the air as you went down. >You land lightly on two feet and a hand, then straighten to your full height. >"Ahahahahaha! And who might you be?" >Damn! Need to come up with a name! "I'm Seeker! You've met your end, villain!" >Not sure where that came from, but whatever. >"Well then, how do you think you're going to stop me, 'Seeker'?" >You walk up to her, and grab hold of a lock of hair. >She looks at you, amused, and then you hold the hair still. >Very still. >Incredibly still. >The hair cools to absolute zero, and freezes solid. >The cold area spreads, getting closer to the villain. >"No! No!" >She tries to get away, but you're holding the hair still, so she can't. >Slowly, her face freezes into an expression of utmost shock and horror, and then the rest of her body freezes too. >Now you need a witty, ice related one-liner. "Thank you for working with Seeker Law Enforcement. Have an ice day." >You crush the hair in your hand, and pirouette. >The spin leads into an uppercut, which shatters the villain. >Another white vortex appears. >You step through the vortex again >And step out into the room you were in earlier. >The white vortex calms down into a normal comic book, which falls to the ground. >You open the door, and the ponies on the other side look relieved to see you safe. >They start asking questions about what happened, and how you stopped it. You ignore them. "So what was that about a break?" >So you're led to a little area, open to the sky while still surrounded by walls. >There's a little picnic cloth thing laid out in the middle, weighed down at the corners by picnic baskets. >So you sit down with the other ponies and have a break. Tea and biscuits are involved. >It's almost singular in how uneventful it is. >It's over soon enough, though. >You stop Pinkie as she and the others go to leave. "The king needs you in Canterlot. Your unique skills are required." >She gets a serious look on her face, stands up straight, faces you and salutes. >"As you wish, your highness!" "Good." >You grab Pinkie's shoulder, stop being in the Everfree Castle >And start being in the Canterlot Castle. The center of the tea room, to be specific. >You and Pinkie jump off the spinning table at the same time. >Then you both weave your ways through the whirlwind of furniture orbiting said center table. >You both reach the door at the same time, despite taking different paths. "Could you find Celestia for me?" >"Sure can!" >She zips away in a pink blur, and returns seconds later with the Princess atop her. >"Here you go!" >And Celestia gets tossed on the floor. "So where did you put my plans for the castle?" >"They're on your bed, Anon." >Wonderful! >You prance and skip your way around the castle, eventually arriving at your room. >Sure enough, the plans are on your bed. >You scoop them up and hand them over to Pinkie. "Do you think you can do it?" >She scrunches up her face. >"I don't know, Annie. You'd need to be able to do some pretty funky things to build this." "I'll teach you, then!"
