>You plunge the spade into the soft earth, and toss the dirt out of the hole. >Twilight gave you something else to do, today. >She told you to dig a hole, deep as you like, and to bring it to her. >You survey your work, and decide that it's probably good enough. >You climb out of the ten foot deep hole, and rest for a bit. >Digging holes is difficult. >Once you're sufficiently rested, you go over to the edge of the hole, and dig your fingers under the edge. >Then, you pull as hard as you can and sure enough, the hole comes off. >Time to show Twilight, then. >You put the hole on the side of the library, walk through it, and take it off the other end. "Here's that hole you wanted." >Speechless once again. >You toss the hole on the ground, and let her deal with it. >You stop being in the library >And start being in the Ponyville Market. >You look around and find a free stall. >And by free, you mean unsupervised. >You sweep the pears or whatever off the stall, and put down a little cardboard plaque that says >"Free Psychiatric Help. The doctor is OUT." >That was fun. >A small yellow and red creature is waving at you from across the market. >You stop being on this side of the market >And start being on the other side, with the yellow and red filly. "Hello, small one! What might you be doing this fine evening?" >She looks confused. >"But it's morning." "Pfft. Yeah, and the sun is just a massive fusion reaction. Right. What did you want?" >"Ah just wanted to say thank you for bringing Applejack back to her senses yesterday." "'Twas nothing. Really." >You pull down a floating barrel of apples, and start eating them. >Breakfast is served. "So, whatsyername, do you have anything I could do? I'm pretty bored." >"Mah name's Applebloom, and... are you the one who put that barrel there?" "Yes, Applebloom. I did put that barrel there, but keep on topic. Things to do." >"Uhhh." >Realisation. >"You could help mah friends and I get our Cutie Marks!" "What makes you think that?" >She drags you off into the distance, ignoring your question. >In short order you arrive at some sort of treehouse. >And not a tree house, either. You live in one of those. >Inside the treehouse there are two other ponies. >One you recognise as Rarity's sister, but the other you have no idea who it is. >Applebloom explains to them that you're going to help them get their Cutie Marks, but you're only sort of paying attention. >She stops talking, and all three look at you. >You say nothing for a bit, then "Names." >"I'm Sweetie Belle!" >"I'm Scootaloo!" >"And Ah'm Applebloom!" "...Do you have any paper and crayons lying around?" >Turns out, they do. >The crayons aren't exactly Crayola quality, but they'll do. >You draw a tree, a bell, and a scooter. >And stick each one to their butts. >They look at them for a short while, and look back at you. >"What's that supposed to do?" "It's what I think your Cutie Marks are going to be. They're usually some terrible pun, so I thought of the worst ones I could." >They scoff, and you let yourself out. >You stop being at the treehouse >And start being at the Tree House. >Twilight is doing some sort of science on the hole you left. >You exit the Library, and think of what to do next. >That's it! You'll make a waterslide! >You combat roll your way to the edge of the Everfree Forest, and start deforesting. >Every tree you knock down, you grab it, stop being there, and start being where you want that log to be, then you trim the excess branches off with a few well placed punches. >Every log in your grand design is placed firmly in the air where it needs to be. >Your amazing waterslide sprawls throughout the entire town, going up and down and around and over and through plenty of houses, businesses and parks, starting from Twilight's bedroom window. >Needless to say, assembling an entire waterslide from scratch isn't exactly the sort of thing you do in ten minutes, no. >You build the slide in a good 3 hours or so. >Now there are two problems. >One. >It's hardly a water slide if there's no water. >Two. >Since it's made of wood, you'd get splinters if you decided to ride it. >Hmm. >Shiny wood doesn't give you splinters. >You should polish the slide. >You stop being wherever >And start being in Carousel Boutique. "Do you have any shoe polish?" >Rarity pops around a corner, to talk to you. >"Yes, actually. Just over in that corner over there. Please, take as much as you like, it's the least I could do." >You grab as much shoe polish as you can, and strap it to your butt. >Now you need water. >Water comes from clouds, right? >Rainbow Dash's house is a cloud! >Perfect! >You stop being in Carousel Boutique >And start being outside Rainbow Dash's house. >You take a firm grip on the house, and drag it over the start of the slide. >A swift smack to get it working, and the cloud starts to dump water into the slide. >Beautiful! >With your butt protected by polish, you ride the slide to get it primed. >After ten minutes or so of exciting twists and turns, you've covered the entire slide in polish. "It is complete!" >You spin your way nack to the start, and find Twilight queueing to get on. "Huh. I didn't know it'd be this popular." >Twilight turns to you slowly, a strange look on her face. >"Anon?" "Yes'm?" >She takes a deep breath. >"WHY IS MY BEDROOM WINDOW THE ENTRANCE TO A WATERSLIDE!?" "Because I thought it was a good idea." >She storms off, probably very angry. Can't imagine why though. >You detach the shoe polish from your behind, and ride the slide again. >Wheeeee! >Waterslides sure are fun! >You waddle your way back to the start again, and find Twilight examining the hole you left. "If you wanted it somewhere else, you just needed to ask." >You tear the hole off the floor, and fold it up and give it to her. >She is speechless once again. This seems to be a recurring theme with her. "Y'know, I probably could've built that waterslide and about a fifth of the time if you'd just teach me telekinesis."
