Chapter 1

 

 

 

“Wake up, Twilight,” whispered Spike. Twilight Sparkle had her eyes shut. She couldn’t decide whether she wanted wake up or emerge back into her dreams. ”C’mon, Twilight,” said Spike. “I made your favorite breakfast.” Twilight Sparkle grabbed her pillow and threw it over her head, grunting in agony. “Spike! Just five more minutes!” she cried, frustrated.

 

 

Spike jumped on her dorsum. “I thought you were looking forward to today,” he remarked. “What day is it?” Twilight Sparkle asked impatiently, briefly pausing between every word she spoke. “Thursday,” replied Spike. “Thursday!” Twilight Sparkle shouted. She jumped from her bed and threw the pillow to the ground below her bed. She immediately dashed downstairs. Spike followed his friend much more relaxed than Twilight Sparkle. “Aren’t you going to have breakfast?” Spike asked her as she used her unicorn magic to pick up the brush and her flabby mane. She gasped and dropped the brush, and raced over to the table where Spike placed her breakfast. She wolfed it down, and then ran to a bookshelf. She used her magic once again, but this time, she carelessly allowed it to cause an avalanche of books to flood the entire room, very similar to the situation where Rainbow Dash had crashed into he library when practicing a Sonic Rainboom.

 

 

 

Just when Spike caught up with Twilight Sparkle, he stopped, only to be swept away like a puny creature being swallowed by a high tide. However, he managed to pop his head up from the mayhem Twilight Sparkle had caused. “Jeez!” Spike hollered. “What’s with you today?” “There is just no way I’ll make it!” she panicked. “I’ll never make the train to Canterlot! I haven’t studied enough this week! You’re going to have to tell Princess Celestia I’ll have to reschedule! Spike!”

 

Suddenly, a monstrous-sized, medium-wood colored book fell from the highest shelf in Twilight Sparkle’s library, and smashed right on top of head. She collapsed on top of the debris of books. “Twilight!” Spike wailed out to her in vast concern. “A-are you okay?” He picked up one of her hooves. “Please wake up, Twilight!” Twilight Sparkle struggled to regain consciousness for a moment. She groaned in immense pain, but stopped her complaining once she saw the book that had just fallen from the shelf.

 

“Spike,” said Twilight Sparkle. “Since when did I have that book?” Spike picked it up, blowing the dust of it, revealing its title in rusty gold. “Filly Tales,” Spike announced. “Oh, Spike!” Twilight Sparkle returned to her irritable mood. “We don’t have time for silly little stories like that!” She used her magic to remove the book from Spike’s hand, throwing it into the ocean of scattered works.

 

“Now, Spike,” Twilight Sparkle pronounced. “Take a note, please. I must inform the Princess right away my current dilemma!” Spike completely blacked out her instructions. His focus was fixed onto the textbook she has just thrown. “Spike!” squawked Twilight Sparkle, impatiently. Spike walked passed her towards the book. “Spike!” roared Twilight Sparkle. Her anger was rising within every second she spoke. Spike continued to disregard her. “The book,” said Spike. “It's glowing.”

 

“SPIKE!” Twilight Sparkle could not take any of this nonsense any longer. She turned her body around, where Spike has walked to.” Will you just please write a letter to Princess –“ On the spur of the moment, she stopped herself from blustering. “S-spike?” He had vanished without warning. Twilight Sparkle panted in horror. She scrambled her way through the profusion of books, until she found the Filly Tales.

 

Spike was more that right when he had told her that it was glowing. It was beaming a color as bright as the sun’s shine at the crack of dawn. She took a step back, taking a deep breath in . Just in the nick of time, she had thought of a spell she had learned the other day. “Okay, relax,” she told herself. She ducked her head down a little bit, and a flow of magic charged towards the Filly Tales. The book’s glimmer completely mirrored the spell, and it went straight back to Twilight Sparkle. The book began to rise from the floor, and her own magic began to force her to rise as well, against her will.

 

Twilight Sparkle gasped in disbelief. ‘This....can’t be happening!” Twilight Sparkle, who was most likely the most masterful magician in all of Ponyville, was being controlled by her own spell, and could do nothing about it. The Filly Tales opened itself, revealing the illustrations of childish stories that lied within them. Twilight Sparkle began to feel a gravitational pull towards the book. “No! No!” she wailed. “This can’t be happening! Spike! Help me! Please!”

 

There was no hope of Spike being any help now. Twilight Sparkle forsakenly allowed the Filly Tales to consume her. As she began to immerge into the old book, a portal generated from the pages. It was pitch black and rather terrifying. As Twilight Sparkle grew closer and closer to it, it began to amplify into an immeasurable dimension. Finally, it engulfed Twilight Sparkle all the way inside. Once the portal closed, she could no longer see the comfortable library she once maintained. There was absolutely nothing she could see. She was far too terrified to even cry out in repugnance. Rather, she felt as if her existence was being eliminated. Twilight Sparkle closed her eyes, and shut herself down the astounding position she had put herself in. She allowed it to blow all away.

(From FIMFiciton) Twilight Sparkle is in trouble. She is to meet Princess Celestia today and is not prepared at all! In the meantime, she has discovered a book in her library she never knew she had. It ends up taking her and Spike into a twisted fairy tale forest which where she is transformed into a typical peasant pony and her best friends are the characters who don't have a clue who she is. One former enemy of Twilight Sparkle is responsible for the mayhem that occurs within this world. It is up to the Element of Magic to claim herself as a noble hero against them!

 

I'd call it an adventure.

Besides some grammatical errors, this is a very nice and interesting setup.
