One day, Twilight walks into a McDonald's with her human guide, David. Humans are odd creatures.

Twilight decides to take a trip with David to the past. Earth was a different place. There wasn't grass and green lands. The sky was grey, the buildings were greyer and the roads were black.

Why did David love this place so much?

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

1 - 2000: An Underwater Odessey

“I’ll say it again. Why are we ten thousand years in the past and in front of yet another restaurant?”

David shook his Twilight. He was going to shake his head but he thought it would be more effective to shake Twilight.

“Twilight, Twilight, TWILIGHT,” he exclaimed.

“What?!” she snapped, irritated by the human’s antics.

David blinked. “We’re underwater.”

Twilight looked unimpressed. “All I see,” she grumbled. “Are grey stone-like walls.”

“Actually,” David explained. “It’s concrete.” He rapped the concrete wall with his knuckle. “Strong stuff. We’re currently a few hundred metres under the surface of the ocean.”

Twilight did some quick calculations. “That’s about 30 times air pressure at this depth! How are you achieving this without magic?”

“Science,” David responded confidently. Twilight narrowed her eyes at him.

“Ugh, I swear if you say– ”

“Magic.”

“Oh for pony’s sake.”

––––

Going inside, the pair were greeted by wide, reinforced glass walls. Twilight and David both stared in wonder as small ocean creatures and the vastness of the watery depth was revealed to them via strategically placed lighting and aquarium trappings on the outside.

“You don’t normally get to see sharks, but you can see them here.”

A small crowd of humans once again surrounded the pair.

“Check it out,” David exclaimed. “I dyed my pony purple and pink for my daughter, isn’t it awesome?”

Twilight shied away from the flashes of cameras going off from smartphones.

“She’s a little shy of photography, so I’ll have to ask you to put your phones away,” David commanded, directing it at the more persistent flashes. The flashes died down.

David leaned in to Twilight. “See? Works everywhere.” Twilight arched an eyebrow.

“And you don’t suppose it might look suspicious when you’re talking to me?”

David snorted. “People talk to animals all the time.” He paused. “We’re kind of lonely, sometimes.”

Twilight rolled her eyes. “Okay, let go get some junk food.”

As they walked to the counter, a voice called out.

"Oh my gosh is that Twilight Sparkle?!"
