The Party

"Master, we are sorry for our failure, will you forgive us?" Said a very scared timber wolf.
"We will, on one condition, that you not fail the next time. Consider yourselves to be lucky that I didn't punish you for your failure. Now go!" Said a feminine voice.
Somewhere in Ponyville
It had been a glorious day. Thanks to Pinkie we had all the information about town! This was very helpful indeed, but I still need find out where their leaders are.
"Is this thing working?" Asked Maria through telepathy.
I should explain how I heard her using telepathy. The machines we were using was our watches, but I had built in a Quantum Telepathic Receiver/Sender node (Copyrights pending.) to allow instantaneous communication, even at a far distance.
"Yes, yes." I quickly replied.
"Hey what's the time?" Asked Travis.
"From what my watch says, eight PM." I stated.
"Leaving us about two hours till Pinkie's party." I said as fast as possible, so no one could ask.
The next hour and a half was alright, walking around town looking at the sights. There was this one that would never leave my mind, a beautiful but physically impossible thing, a castle hanging from a mountain, it looked perfect at the moment since the sun was going down, casting a perfect ray of sun into the nearby terrain.
But it was at that time my watch beeped, stating thirty minutes till' the party began.
Sugarcube Corner
"So who are going to meet, because you said yourself, this party was for us." Twilight said, a confused look on her face.
"Ethan, Travis, and Maria, I overheard them talking and I found out their names." Answered Pinkie Pie.
"And you're sure they're not gonna be mean?" Asked Rainbow Dash, not wanting them to be like Gilda.
"Yepperoni! They were really thankful when I helped them out!" Answered Pinkie, not knowing why her friends would doubt her.
"U-um it's okay with me, a-as long it's okay with you, though." Said Fluttershy, not wanting to upset her friends.
As we started walking to 'Shugarcube Corner' as Pinkie said its name was, I noticed that the towns people were nicer than people from home, allot of them waved and greeted us with kindness. 'Hopefully when people start moving here they don't ruin this, I like it.' I thought. His watch beeped again, reminding him that he was almost late.
It was time for the party to begin, luckily we walked in five minutes early. The introduction wasn't too hard.
"Hello, I'm Ethan." I said enthusiastically.
"I know, you're Maria, and you are Travis." The lavender mare said pointing to my friends.
"H-h-how'd you know that?" Travis asked unnerved from what she had said.
"Pinkie said she heard you say your names, also, my name is Twilight Sparkle, nice to meet you!" Twilight said.
"Where are you from? Your names are very . . exotic." She asked.
"Um, I don't really want to talk about that." I said, using my basic undercover training to add more reality to my words.
"Oh, also, why weren't you flying? Usually Pegasi fly to get to a destination." Twilight asked.
"Well, lets just say we never were able to be taught." I covered.
At that moment Twilight levitated a pen and pencil over, further more she showed no signs of a quantum manipulator transplant.
"How are you doing that?" I asked, completely at a lack of words.
"This is simple levitation, all unicorns can do it, unless their horn isn't working." Twilight answered.
"Shouldn't you know what magic is, I mean you do travel with a unicorn." She added.
"Well she wasn't able to learn either." Travis said, quickly joining in on making a cover story.
"You must have been raised by earth ponies." Twilight said to no one in particular.
"Yes we were, and lets not talk about this, okay?" Said a very annoyed Maria, not wanting to talk about a fake past.
It was a few hours and the music started grating on our moods, I mean it was the suckiest music ever.
I mean really, we looked like we could kill someone right then. So I decided to fix the problem.
"I have the perfect idea to fix this horrible music." I said as I pulled out a metal cube with a button on top.
As I pressed the button I threw it onto the ground and watched it expand until it became a music box. I pressed in a few codes and it started playing.
Music made everyone energetic, as it seemed like to long since there was last dubstep. Of course this was the last song, sadly.
"How'd you do that?" Twilight asked, eager to find out how he made it.
"Just a bit of magic and technology combined. On one of my travels I found a skilled unicorn so I decided to pay him that way we would never be bored." I said.
As the guests started leaving I felt compelled to say something.
"Where are we going to stay?" I asked to no one in particular.
"You can stay here if you want." Pinkie Pie said.
"That's too nice. But I must accept, it's better staying here than outside." Maria said.
That night I was stuck thinking, what would they think about us when we had to finally tell the truth?
That night there was a gap, a gap in reality, created by evil. This evil was long left by the princesses, thinking it was an item of worthlessness, of course, they underestimated the importance of double-checking.
"Soon I will rise, and have my revenge, hopefully that idiot I burdened with my release will do her job just fine." Said a very intimidating, masculine voice.
"I will rise!" It repeated.
