A Pony in Takistan

Twilight Sparkle walked through Ponyville, happily singing to herself. This day was going to be perfect! She had everything planned out, from the picnic she was headed from to the spa visit later in the day.

A bird soared through the air, catching her attention. It drifted on the air currents, happy with its day as well.

It was beautiful outside.

Suddenly, a bright flash filled her vision. It surrounded her on every side, blinding her.

Twilight Sparkle, personal student of Princess Celestia, vanished from Equestria.

Matthew quickly put his gaming headset on, sitting down at his computer.

"Hurry up, Matthew!" He heard his friend Leon shout through the headset. "We need to grab a sniper and get moving! We've fully recovered from that hacker earlier, and the AI is building our base for us. We're attacking now!"

With that, Matthew dived into his game of ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead, happily moving along the desert terrain.

This day was going to be great.
