Sucked into a demented version of popular game Minecraft, five mares have to find their way home.

Sucked into a demented version of the popular game Minecraft, Pinkie, AppleJack, Rainbow Dash, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo have to find their way home.

Sweetie Belle, Rainbow Dash, and AppleJack all end up in different single player worlds.

Whilst Scootaloo and Pinkie Pie end up on the same multiplayer server. It's also full of portals. Can one of them take them home? What about the others?

Big thanks to Amante and Wwfriesen, my editors and Co-writers.

Chapter 1: The Winter Sleepover

The pink pony bounced happily around Sugar Cube Corner. She lit the fire in the fireplace and placed four mats on the floor in front of it.

“Let’s see,” she said, “one, two, three, four. Plus me is fi-”

Her counting was interrupted by the singsong of the doorbell.

“Coming,” the pinkie pony called happily.

Throwing open the door, she saw one of her bestest friends ever.

“Hi, Pinkie,” the blue pegasus said, flinging her rainbow hair around, “Brr. It’s cold out tonight.”

“Hi Dashie, come in,” Pinkie said, “Wait right here, I need to get another mat. “

She trotted up the stairs to where the mats were kept. Dash walked in and sat on the mat closest to the fire.

“Hey Pinkie?” Dash called.

Pinkie poked her head around the corner at the top of the stairs, a blue mat hanging from her mouth.

“Yesh?” Pinkie said, her voice muffled by said mat in her mouth.

“How many ponies are you expecting?”

“Jush five.” she said as she carefully walked backwards down the steps.

She set the mat down next to Rainbow Dash and pushed the others mats closer together so as to be nearer to the fireplace. She plopped down on one right as the doorbell rang again.

“Coming,” Pinkie sang as she stood up and trotted to the door.

She opened it and was presented with two shaking little fillies.

“Hi P-P-pinkie. Can-n we c-come in? Its c-cold.” said the small, purple maned, orange filly.

“Sure thing, Scootaloo,” Pinkie chirped, moving out of the doorway.

“You two need blankets,” she said. Pinkie walked to the closet where mats, blankets, pillow, etc… were stored. Grabbing five blankets, one for each guest, she trotted over to the shivering fillies and draped two of the blankets over them. The others she put on the mats.

Rainbow snatched one and sat back down.

“Thanks,” spoke up a white unicorn.

“Your welcome, Sweetie Belle. Wow it must be REALLY cold out for you guys not to be crusading!” Pinkie chided as she stepped outside. She instantly jumped back in and shut the door and took back what she just said.

An orange pony with a blonde mane and tail pushed against the wind as she made her way to Sugarcube Corner. She knocked and, after a while, Pinkie opened the door.

“Thanks, sugar cube. Ah nearly froze my tail off,” AppleJack said as she entered the bakery.

“Okie Dokie Lokie, that’s everypony. Let’s get STARTED!” Pinkie interrupted, running over to the music player. Suddenly, loud music filled the room and Pinkie burst out into dance.

After lots of dancing and snacking, they sat down on the mats, satisfied.

“Hey guys, guess what I got,” Pinkie said.

“What?” asked Sweetie.

“A new game,” she said as a mad grin attached itself to her face, “Wanna play?”

“Sure, what’s it called?” replied Dashie.

“Minecraft.”

“Minecraft? What’s that?” asked AJ.

“I dunno. Someone just left a copy of it on the table in the shop. It looked fun so I decided to try it with you guys. It did say that it had multiplayer”

All of a sudden, Pinkie noticed something terribly wrong. “Oh no, AppleJack! Your hat!”

“What about it?”

“You're not wearing it,” she deadpanned.

“Ah took it off, the wind might have taken it away.” Applejack replied offhoofedly.

“Oh, okie dokie lokie. Lets play Minecraft.”

The five mares started up the game and crowded around the computer.

‘How many of you are playing?’ the screen read.

“Five.” Pinkie replied out loud.

“Eh, Pinkie, I think it wants us to type it in,” said Rainbow.

“Oh ya. Silly me,” said Pinkie, as she giggled and typed ‘5’ into the box.

Pressing enter, the screen refreshed itself and showed five empty text boxes with the words ‘Pick your Username(s)’ above it.

“Me first, please,” said Sweetie.

Pinkie moved aside to let her type.

“Okay, so that’s Sweetie, then me, than Dashie, then AJ, then Scootaloo,” Pinkie said.

“What? Why am I last?” Scootaloo whined.

Pinkie sympathized and revised what she said, “Fine. Sweetie, then Scootaloo, than Dashie, then AJ, then me.”

Seeing they were satisfied, they took their turns to input their usernames. When they were done the screen now read:

Pick your username(s)!

1 Sweetie_Belle_Rocks_22378
2 RD_is_20_percent_cooler_than_you
3 Dashie_The_Great552
4 AppleJack5782
5 ThePartyPony668

When the computer was satisfied what each box had a name. A button appeared beside each that read, ‘Play.’

“Well, you read it girls. Time to play!” declared Pinkie as clicked the one beside her chosen alias.

“ThePartyPony668 had joined the game: Multiplayer. CCraft: version 1.6.4” said an eerie, synthesized voice that came from the computer.

Sweetie and AppleJack, likewise, pressed play.

“Sweetie_Belle_Rocks_22378 has joined the game: single player: Creative Mode. Cheats. version 1.6.4” the voice said, followed by, “AppleJack5782 Has join the game: Single player: Survival mode. No cheats. version 1.6.4”

Scootaloo then pressed her play button

The voice announced that “RD_is_20_percent_cooler_than_you has joined the game: Multiplayer: CCraft: version 1.6.4”

With every push of ‘Play’, the voice seemed to get more eerie. However, since the ponies were too engrossed on what the game could posibly be, they didn’t notice this.

“Guess it’s my turn,” said Rainbow Dash as she clicked play.

“Dashie_The_Great552 has joined the game: Single player: Survival Mode: Cheats. version 1.6.4”

Suddenly, the voice, or rather, many voices, cried out, “Starting game! Preparing to send players to worlds.”

It was then that Dash got sucked into the computer. Pinkie, AJ, Sweetie and Scootaloo could only stare in shock at what happened. They didn’t have to stare too long though as they were also pulled into the screen.

With the room now empty, yellow eyes formed upon the fire in the hearth. Slowly, the snake like body of the draconequus named Discord formed and stood in front of the computer.

He had the widest grin on now.

“Ohohoho! Now this is going to be interesting,” he said as he picked up his ‘personal’ copy of the game that he left behind. “So this is where I left this silly thing.”

Chapter 2: In The Computer

Pinkie - Username: ThePartyPony668

Pinkie’s vision went black for a moment. When she opened could see again, she was in a world where everything was square. In front of her were four portals. She had a row of nine boxes at the bottom of her vision no matter where she looked. In her head, there was a keyboard and mouse, which seemed to help her move.

She chose the portal marked “SMP”. Her vision went black and then she loaded in a room made of gray bricks. A message was displayed in the bottom right-hand corner of her screen.
“ThePartyPony668 is visiting CCraft for the first time!” and
“Welcome to CCraft, ThePartyPony668! Please read the rules.”
“Hello?” asked Pinkie aloud. It showed up in the corner. “Where am I?” suddenly, the corner was full of messages reading
“Welcome!” and
“Welcome ThePartyPony668!” and
“Welcome to CCraft ThePartyPony668!”

“How come I can see what you are saying, but not hear it?” Two replies came. One read
“N00B” and the other read “It’s chat. Are you really that new?”
“Yes, I am that new,” Pinkie said, the message showing up in chat.

She found if she pressed “T” on her mind’s keyboard, she could type into chat. And that she couldn’t move without pressing W, A, S, or D. Jumping was spacebar, and then it hit her. She was inside the computer. Minecraft was a computer game and she was inside it. Where were the others? She thought back to last thing she remembered happening in Equestria. The others were all in single player worlds, except her and Scootaloo.

She decided to find out the other controls, as it seemed she would be here awhile. “E” opened her “inventory”, were all her stuff was kept. She broke blocks by left clicking with her mind’s mouse, and right clicking placed them. Everything here seemed to be made of blocks. She cut down a tree and made a crafting table. She wanted a bed, and the server had ingame money and shops. She bought one for eighty dollars ingame. Then she bought some food. Next, she made a wooden house and did “/sethome” as the other players told her to do.

Then night came. Zombies and skeletons and spiders and creepy green things chased Pinkie around. Then they got her. Little hearts she had not noticed blinked away above her lower inventory. Next to them were little hams, also blinking away. Then a message appeared on the screen. “You died! Click here to respawn.” and in the chat, “The creeper blast killed ThePartyPony668”
“What’s a ‘Creeper’,” she typed into chat. “n00b,its those green things that blow you up :P” You_Are_All_N00Bs_4479 said. “do you want me to explain EVERYthing about minecraft to you?”
“Actually, yes,” Pinkie said, which made You_Are_All_N00Bs_4479 mad, but eventually he did, and it helped alot.

When she understood that you were supposed to mine stuff, Pinkie went mining. She got three diamonds and made herself a new pickaxe.Then she saw a creeper right behind her. And she was near lava. Then the creeper exploded, launching Pinkie into the air.

Scootaloo - Username: RD_is_20_percent_cooler_than_you

Scootaloo woke up near where Pinkie had started. Four blocky portals in a blocky world. She had the same keyboard in her head, but Scoot knew where she was instantly, unlike Pinkie. She learned how to move, jump, use chat, place and break blocks, and everything else from her basic knowledge of computer games.

‘I’m inside a computer game! Cool! Maybe I’ll get a computer game cutie mark!’ she thought ‘Wait, how will I get back? Maybe if I beat the game? Or maybe one of these portals?’

She walked to a portal labeled ”Skyblock” thinking it would be like Cloudsdale. Her screen went black and when it reloaded, she realised how wrong she was.
“Welcome to RD_is_20_percent_cooler_than_you island.” her chat read. She no longer had wings, and was on a floating island of grass shaped like a “L” with one chest and a tree on it. And she was stuck.

AJ - Username: AppleJack5782

AJ spawned in a blocky world of grass. There were other animals nearby. They were similar to ponies that lived in Equestria, but AppleJack saw that they were different from any animal she had ever seen. These things were blocky (as was everything here) and wandered about without sense of direction. They could not speak and lazily derped around the field, seeming rather unintelligent. They didn't respond to her at all. Even Winona was smarter than them. Granted, she was a highly intelligent dog, but still.

Once Applejack figured out that she was inside the game and some of the basic controls of it, she got some wood from some trees and made crafting table and a basic wooden house. once she had all the basic wooden tools, she felt she needed something better than that, so she grabbed her pickaxe and started to dig a staircase in the ground right outside her house.

Once she got down a considerable amount of blocks, she spied something black mixed in with the stone. After she mined it, she looked into her inventory and discovered it was coal. She tried to make something out of it and got some torches. This could be handy as the staircase was very dark. As she was crafting the torches, Applejack didn’t realize that it was getting dark outside, too. When she did, she started climbing back up to her house. Then she saw a dark green shape by her house. She started towards it and as she got closer she thought of all the bad things that it could be. She stuttered backwards. The last thing Applejack wanted to do was die, and in AppleJack’s experience at least, if you die, you aren't coming back. The thing moved towards her.

dash - Username: Dashie_The_Great552

Rainbow opened her eyes. She was in a forest. But, it seemed odd. Wasn’t she at Pinkie’s party a few minutes ago? Then it hit her. She was inside the game. She knew a bit about computer games, and learned the basic controls easily. Then, a message appeared in the chat. “Type “/help” for a list of commands” it read. She obeyed.

That is when she noticed she couldn't fly. But /help said that if she did /gamemode creative, she could break blocks instantly, have unlimited resources, and fly. In seconds, her health and hunger bars disappeared. She double pressed spacebar in her mind’s keyboard and took off. She flew over jungles and deserts and oceans and extreme hills. Finally, she landed in a plains biome, near a village where all the villagers had really bad deals. Four of them wanted an emerald for 1-3 redstone, and there were only eight villagers! One wanted seven emeralds for leather pants! The other three? 20 emeralds for a eye of ender, 15 for an iron sword, and 9 emeralds for one book!

Then she thought that she could make a portal home. She made portal things made of obsidian and one of glowstone. There were two of each. She poured water through one of each and tried to step thru. But nothing happened. Then she tried to set fire to a block on each of the others. But she had to go into survival mode first. Then, the obsidian’s one went purple and portal like. She stepped thru it.

She stepped into a world of lava, fire, and purple brick blocks. There were mobs that shot fire at her, mobs with golden swords and mobs the flew and cried. This wasn’t home. This, this was the nether and she had one heart left.

Sweetie - Username: Sweetie_Belle_Rocks_22378

The last thing that Sweetie Belle saw of her home was the computer she was now in. She had a keyboard and mouse in her mind, and like Scoot and Dash, knew enough about computer games to learn the controls quickly. She did what Dash had done and ended up making a nether portal. But Sweetie went back into creative mode after lighting it. Then she stepped in. And saw Dash fighting a blaze. Then, she fainted.
