Spiral

   Time awoke to the sound of voices, although they were all muffled as she was still regaining consciousness. "Fainted . . . knew me . . . do now?"

"Hmm," Time Spiral mused to herself. "That sounds distinctively like Twilight. . ." then a new voice broke through, once again only pieces she could hear.

"Why . . . looks weird."

**"Rainbow!"** Twilight sounded shocked.

"Ah so that must be Rainbow Dash." The unicorn mare thought as the fuzzy outlines of six ponies, one blue, one yellow, one purple, one orange, one white and one pink, came into view as she opened her eyes.

   "Oh my goodness! She's waking up! Does she look okay?" Came a soft voice. Time Spiral groaned.

   "For the record, I am completely fine." She said as she sat up. The six ponies were now in full view and non fuzzy, so she had no trouble addressing them all. Twilight frowned and inspected the odd mare.

   "Are you sure you're okay? I mean you did fall down pretty hard . . ." Time smiled.

   "I am quite alright Twilight thank you anyway." Rainbow Dash frowned and flew up to the unicorn mare so fast, she almost fell over again.

   "Hey, how do you know who she is?" She demanded. "Are you some kind of spy or stalker?" Time gave a light laugh.

   "No of course not! I just know who everypony is!" All six ponies frowned and looked at one another.

   "Will you excuse us Miss . . .?"

   "Time Spiral, Twilight. My name is Time Spiral but please call me Time." Twilight smiled.

   "Right. Well please excuse us for a moment Time." All six ponies trotted over to an area on the field and began discussing something with one another. "They must be discussing about how I can prove my claim," Time thought as she observed the group. First, the cyan pegasus flew over and hovered in front of the still sitting mare's head.

   "Well Miss-Know-It-All please tell me who I am!" She challenged. The mare smiled.

   "You are Rainbow Cloud Dash, daughter of Mystery Storm Dash and her husband Raindrops The Third. You are the second pony in all of history who is able to preform the Sonic Rainboom, you wish to join the Wonderbolts, and you are the Element of Loyalty." Rainbow Dash's jaw dropped before she recovered for a moment and smirked.

   'Ha! You're wrong! I'm the FIRST pony in all of history to do the Sonic Rainboom! In your face!" She said while doing a loop-de-loop. Time frowned.

   "No I am correct with my information. Sonic Blast Rainboom was the first pony in history to ever do the Sonic Rainboom, hence the name. It was just lost in Time, so to speak." Rainbow Dash's jaw dropped once again before flying back over to the group of mares and repeating her results. All six heads turned towards her, so Time smiled at them making them all frown in confusion.

   Next the orange Earth pony trotted over to Time. "Okay Time, I bet 'ya don' know who I am!" Time once again smiled.

   "You are Applejack Sugar Apple. When you were a filly, you loved to play the violin, eat Zap Apple's, and play with your foal-hood friends. Your parents live in Fillydelphia at the moment, and your family is the most important thing to you. Along with all that, you are the Element of Honesty." The sturdy Earth pony had bulging eyes fixed on Time before backing away quickly to rejoin her friends. She distinctly heard the words, "She knew 'mah middle name!"

   The pink mare bounced over to Time so fast that nopony could stop her. "Hi there!" She began. "My name is-"

   "Pinkedima Dian Pie!" Time yelled before jumping up and walking around the pink Earth pony. "How did you get into Time?!" She demanded. "And how is it possible that you break all of Physic's law's?!" Pinkie Pie smiled and responded with an answer so odd that Time had to sit back down.

   "It's a family secret!" The unicorn mare scowled before realizing something else.

   "Well Pinkedima Dian Pie-"

   "Please call me Pinkie or Pinkie Pie!"  Time Spiral frowned and continued.

   "Well Pinkie thank you for giving me that button, but how did you get it there in Time in the first place?!"" The pink Earth pony smiled.

   "I told you silly-pants! It's a family secret!" The pink mare then bounced back to her friends, telling them some hilarious tale about some bubble gum, a piece of candy, and a unicorn, making five heads turn back towards the rust brown mare who was pacing around in a circle, scowling. The unicorn sighed.

   "Look I already know who you guys are, can you stop questioning me? I'm really tired and I want to look around Ponyville to make sure I'm actually here." Her ranting got several questioning glances.

   "Uh . . . why wouldn't you be here?" Asked Rainbow Dash.

   "Because I thought it was impossible to get out of my home." She replied.

   "Oh my . . . is it scary where you live all by yourself?" Fluttershy asked.

   "I suppose for other ponies it would be scary in Time."

   "Whaaaa . . .? Time? Is that what you call your home?" The purple unicorn mare was certainly confused at Time Spiral's statement.

   She shook her head back and forth. "No I actually live outside of Time if you want to get technical about it . . ."

   "Nopony can live outside of time, or in time for that matter. It's scientifically impossible!" Twilight said while Time Spiral stared at the her.

   "Twilight, I have lived longer than most ponies on Terra, and I promised I would never ever say this to you unless you didn't make sense. You use magic and your telling ME that ponies can't live outside of Time? I'm ashamed of you." A strangled noise escaped the purple mare's throat.

   "Magic is different. You have to study and practice it. It's just not normal for ponies to live in time! That's not even physicly possible!"

   "Oh but it is Twilight." Time said before frowning. "But I don't understand how your friend keeps breaking Physic's laws! She gave me a button to get here!" There was a long pause.

   " . . . . . What?"

   "You heard me correctly. Pinkidema Dian Pie gave me a button that transported me here." There was a thud as Twilight hit the ground in a dead faint. Time sighed and looked at the rest of the ponies, all of them watching in disbelief that Twilight had fainted. Lighting up her horn, Time Spiral picked up the unconscious mare and began trotting towards her treehouse. She glanced back at the unmoving mares. "Are you coming, or do I have to get you too?"
