The sound of Time filled a unicorn mare's ears, but she continued to ignore the ticking of Time as she always did. Even though today's ticking sounded louder than normal to her ears, she continued to stare at what looked like a large mirror full of images. Tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic . . . The mare frowned. "That accursed ticking, why can't I ignore it? Am I easily distracted today?" The mare shook her head, trying to rid her head of the ticking.
Turning her head back to the mirror-like object, the unicorn mare skimmed over some un-important events and focused her attention on the most important thing happening. A unicorn mare, her full name being Twilight Eclipse Sparkle, was gaining her wings and becoming an alicorn in the stars. The young mare bore a terrified expression as her purple aura surrounded her, spinning and spinning until there was a bright flash and her cutie mark was shown from the stars.
The dark, rust brown unicorn watching said events unfold smiled to herself. "So it was number 4567 that she chose huh? That was expected of her." Lighting up her horn, the unicorn mare levitated over an extremely large journal and a beautiful quill, and set them both down at her hooves. Tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic . . . The mare frowned and began mouth writing in elegant Calligraphy, taking care that every letter was perfect.
Day 5,000,500,365,000:
Topic Of The Day: Twilight Eclipse Sparkle's choice
Today, the unicorn mare named as Twilight Eclipse Sparkle, also known as Twily by her brother or Twilight by her friends, went through what will most likely be one of the most important events in her lifetime. On this day, she became an alicorn, also known as a Alicornian. How she will react will be up to herself, but personally I think she will be utterly shocked and slightly scared at this new update.
Signed, Time Spiral
Closing the journal, she turned back to the mirror only to stop and growl slightly in frustration. Tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic . . . . . "Why can't I ignore it?!" She growled to herself in frustration. Standing up, she slowly walked over to one of the mechanisms in the clock, taking a good look at it. "Hmm," the mare said. "Nothing appears wrong but . . ." She turned around, only stopping when she saw something odd in Time. "Is that a box?" The mare asked herself. Levitating it over so it was near her muzzle, the mare opened the box to find, much to her surprise, a button and a note.
First, the grabbed the note in her magical grip and read it to herself, just to find out who could possibly get their way into Time.
Dear Timey-Wimey,
Time Spiral groaned inwardly. It was of course the fabled Pinkedima Dian Pie, the same Earth pony who defied Laws Of Physics, her neighbor.
I know that you must be lonely all by yourself in Time,and that made me so so so so so so sad! So I got you something that will let you come to Ponyville and visit Equestria! I hope you like it! And don't worry, you will still be able to control Time and everything, you'll just get to make friends! All you gotta do is push the red button, and when you wanna go back into Time, press it again! Hope you like it!
Your friend, Pinkie Pie.
The dark rust brown mare frowned, pushed up her wire-framed glasses using her long tail, and read the letter over again.
Dear Timey-Wimey,

Your friend, Pinkie Pie.
Time Spiral stared at the red button in the box. "Can I really go see other ponies? Really and truly?" She thought to herself. "I might as well see if this works." Picking up the button, the unicorn mare took one last look around Time. "I'll see you later Time." She said aloud. Tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic. . . Closing her eyes, Time Spiral pressed the button and waited to go to Equestria.
Nothing. Just nothing except the same noise she had heard her whole life. Tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic, tic . . . The mare frowned and opened her eyes. "I promised I would never EVER say this, " she began. "But that was a waste of my," all of a sudden, the metal ground below her vanished and she was hurtling towards what her consciousness knew as Equestria.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Time to wake up." The mare's head rang with a voice. "Is that my voice?" She wondered aloud. "Um no I'm not your voice I'm Twilight Sparkle." There it was again. That voice. The unicorn mare opened her eyes and found, much to her surprise it actually was the Twilight Sparkle. Time Spiral frowned as she sat up and looked at the purple unicorn mare up close.
"You are indeed Twilight Eclipse Sparkle?" She asked. Twilight flinched when she heard her full name.
"H-How do you know my full name?!" She asked .The other mare waved her hoof.
"That is not important at the moment. Please, would you be so kind as to tell me where exactly I am?" Twilight smiled.
"Why your in Ponyville of course!" She beamed. Time Spiral blinked before doing something she had never done before, she fell into a dead faint.
