"But Twilight..."
"No, Spike! You're not getting a new camera."
Both came off annoyed. For Twilight, with her schedule being as busy unlike before, she wanted to make the best
"Besides, you always walk off to who knows where with your head stuck to the screen after taking the picture," Twilight said. "You never tell us
"Hey, Spike. Ya mind hurrying up a bit? I still got chores to do and my back is killing me."
"Aw, that's a laugh, sugar cube. I've had these little fellas since I can remember," she said, cupping both her hands under them.
Twilight turned her head away after hearing that, glaring and frowning at her friend. "AJ, that's just creepy." Before she pushed the last book into its respective shelf.
Up in an apartment, a Great and Powerful Trixie bent over a work bench, trying to bring the greatest idea in her head to life. The focus of her attention was the camera. No, a [special camera that could finally put her from managing her little wagon to ruling an entire kingdom. If anything slowed her down, it was her fantasies that distracted her from finishing it earlier.
It had been a simple camera that she had bought at any common store but she had since then infused a little bit of magic into the frame, outfitted with a micro phone. She had believed that by implanting magic generally used for transformation spells into her camera, she could bend the very fabric of reality. She had been humiliated at by her foes, the Mane Six, especially by that egghead student, Twilight Sparkle. The last time they accidentally bumped into each other, she tried intimidating Twilight with her ideas but Twilight said such ideas were science fiction, not science and were more in touch with comic books than reality. Well, Trixie would show her and her friends.
She went outside and decided to test the device to make sure that it worked. She parked her wagon by the woods so she had plenty of inanimate objects to test on. She looked around for a suitable object, or preferably subject and came up with the bright idea to enhance her humble abode. It was over 30 years old, inherited from her parents and nearing the end of it's long life. The wood started to look aged, some of the edges were chipped off, and it made one hell of an annoying creaky sound when moving. A grin came over her face as she said into the microphone "Good as New". The words appeared in the screen as she focused on the wagon. With great anticipation, she pressed the shoot button.
A blinding flash filled her vision as reality reworked. When her vision cleared, a brand new looking wagon stood where her old wagon had been. She checked the wagon from the inside-out and it all looked good as new like she wished for.
"YES!!! IT worked!!" She said, rubbing her hands together in pure delight. While this first test had been successful, she needed more tests to make sure that the camera worked under other circumstances.
"With this I can make that Princess Twilight my slave, along with her friends and fellow princesses, and I can become the sole ruler of all of Equestria!"And in typical fashion, her maniacal laughter kicked in for nobody but her to hear in the woods.
