Infinity Tree. An equine In Merville

       It was a beautiful evening in equestria, as always for the weather is rigged. But today there was something peculiar about this night. Something that a certain purple unicorn could not put her hoof on.

       Twilight Sparkle, prized pupil of princess Celestia, and magic prodigy trotted about her home looking upon various shelves, and other nooks and carneys in search of something. Emptying drawers, and searching through closets she let out many groans of frustration.

       "Spike!" She called. "Where did you put my telescope lens!?"

       A young dragon who hardly needs an introduction came trudging down the stairs. His little clawed feet lightly scratching the wooden steps as he walked.

       " I don't know Twilight. I haven't seen it." Twilight continued her frantic search. Scrolls and other parchments flew in various directions. Spike let out a sigh. He would be the one cleaning the mess.

       "Spike! I need them now before it's to late!" Spike had a hunch of where the lens may be.

       "Have you checked to see if the lens were already IN the telescope?" Twilight paused and face hoofed her self. Isn't it always in the last place you look?

       She ran up the steps at a breakneck speed, brushing past spike and causing him to fall off into a conveniently placed pile of scrolls upon the hard wood floor. Rushing into her room, Twilight took hold of her delicate telescope to check the lens. Sure enough....they were there. With out a moments hesitation, she peered into the eye piece and looked into the beautiful night sky.

       "Ah! Oh my gosh! Spike look at this!" Twilight squeaked, hoping in place without looking from the lens. Spike was already walking into the room, dusting him self off and checking for paper cuts as he did so.

       "Twilight. What's the big deal? What's so amazing that you need to see it now?"

       "Oh spike! It's the most amazing thing! If only you could see it!"

       Spike let out a grumble. He could see it if only twilight would move out of the way. There was only one telescope in the house hold after all. Unfortunately, Twilight didn't move, as if her hooves were welded to the floor and her right eye glued to the telescope, and this only annoyed spike further. It's even worse then when an improver actor has his back towards an audience during a show. You can't see any thing!

       "Take a look at this!" Twilight chirped as she pulled her head away for spike to view this "amazing" thing in the night sky.

       Spike took a look and at first he saw nothing. But when he looked closer at the stars he noticed one of them was shinning much brighter then the rest. Was it the North Star? No....the telescope was pointing south, but what was it? Unlike the other stars, this star shinned a deep purple color. It twinkled so bright that it almost hurt to look at.

       "What is it?" Was all spike could ask.

       "I don't know." Twilight said bluntly whilst pushing spike out if the way of the lens for her to see. "But I'm sure gonna find out!" She grinned from ear to ear at the thought of something new to study. A new star that may have yet to be discovered!

"Well.... If you don't mind, I'm going back to bed." Spike let out a yawn and slowly trudged out the door leaving the giggling Twilight to ravage this new object to explore.

       Twilight wasted no time. In a matter of seconds, and with the help of unicorn magic twilight levitated all she needs for examination and stargazing towards her. Magnifier lens, paper and ink, an astral constellation map, and the limited edition copy of stargazing for eggheads all lay on floor around her pillow of ehich she sat on. Boy...this is going to be a long night.

       As twilight gazed at the seemingly static, or utterly motionless star she couldn't help but feel like she was forgetting some thing.

       "Quills." She said quietly to her self. " I shall require a proper writing utensil."

       Without averting her gaze from the looking glass, she magically levitated a box from inside a drawer. The box floated over to Twilight and opened with a click. Inside was a beautiful velvet pen. It's long body was carved of polished ivory with designs of Sakura leaves etched into the side. It was a divine pen. Not only was it pretty, but durable to. The perfect utensil for an all night starring contest with an obscure purple star.

       "If no pony has discovered it yet.... Maybe I can name it!" Twilight exclaimed, yet again talking to her self. " Maybe smarty pants two point oh?"

      She continued to examine the Still very unmoving star for who knows how many hours. Twilght her self actually felt a little sleepy. Her eyes drooped as her eyelids became very heavy. Her head began to bow as her body leaned forward. Closer, and closer her head tilted toward the hard wood floor until her horn tapped against the surface of her telescope and she awoke from her doze with a jolt.

       "Oh dear." She said. Again, to herself. "Guess its time to hit the hay."

       She thought it be okay to have one more peak at her new found specimen and looked once more into the eye piece. She then suddenly let out a startled gasp!

       The star was much bigger then it was only a few seconds ago. No...now there are two stars! One very big that was very far away, and another smaller one.....coming right at her!!!

       The purple light shinned brighter and brighter, and flew closer to Twilight's window at an alarming g pace. It could have been only yards away! Twilight was like a dear stuck in head lights, frozen in place, mouth open in shear terror as the light flew right  through the window, shrouding everything in blinding purple light.

       The window and all the wall around was turned to rubble  as what ever was causing the light smashed through it. A loud roar of wind and fire exploded all around Twilight making her cover her ears with her hooves and squeez her eyes shut. The blinding mass of light completely enveloped Twilight, lifting her up from the her haunches on the floor.

       Twilight dared to see what it was that has so ferociously smashed into her home. The light was to bright, but by squinting her eyes she could make out something black. A grotesque black ....thing with sharp tentacles, and light spewing from all around it.

       Twilight let out a scream to only be silenced by the horrible burning sensation in her mouth. Her whole body began to burn all over as if somepony threw her upon a bed of red hot nails. Outside of the roaring wind, she could hear her bones cracking and reshaping as her body twisted into forms that seemed impossible! She tried to scream, she tried to call out for help, but she couldn't even cry out in pain as her body then ripped to shreds And dematerialized into microscopic atoms. All the dust that was left of her was balled up and fired straight up, through the roof of her tree home, through the clouds and into the stratosphere until it was gone. Twilight was no longer exsisting on this demensional plane, nor was she dead or ceased from exsistsnce entirely. Think of it as a meer packaging and shipment of an important delivery.

       After all the commotion spike finally awoke from his slumber to see what happened to only find a half wrecked room and some thing else. His mouth was agape with horror at the sight of the now lifeless, metallic, black thing that lay in the half of the room where twilight once sat.

       "Twiliiiiiiiiiggggghhhtt!!!!!!!!!!!" Spike screamed as he ran to the tentacled creature, but no amount of screaming could Twilight ever hear him, for she was no in a place where no sound may ever reach.

       But not all is bad. In fact when spike looked at the night sky he saw through his teary eyes hundreds if purple stars. All growing brighter by the minute.
