- >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."
