Chapter 1

“Come on Twilight, jump in!” shouted Pinkie Pie. Twilight Sparkle looked at Ponyville’s giant pool of water, wondering whether or not if she should jump in.

“Sorry Pinkie, but you know my mane and tail takes a very long time to dry. Plus, the chlorine makes them turn green,” said Twilight.

“Oh, sugar cube,  it’ll be alright,” comforted Applejack. Her long mane was out loose around her shoulders as she swam laps around the pool on her back. Suddenly there was a big splash in the water.

“Oh no! I’m all wet!” shouted Rarity, who was on her purple raft, covered in her jewel swim suit. A flash of rainbows came out onto the surface. It was Rainbow Dash. She looked back up at the diving board.

“Come on Fluttershy! Jump in!” she shouted.

“B…But, I…I really can’t d…do th…things l…like this…” Rainbow Dash flew out of the water and wiggled her mane and tail, getting them dry. She flew up the diving board to Fluttershy.

When she wasn’t looking, Rainbow Dash pushed Fluttershy into the water. She screamed as her pink and yellow body dived into the water. Fluttershy quickly struggled in the water. She didn’t come up for a while.

“Oh no! I think Fluttershy’s drowning!” shouted Rarity. Pinkie Pie dove underwater and pulled Fluttershy up with her teeth. Everyone gathered around while Fluttershy was chocking up water. The first thing she saw was Pinkie’s face.

“Pinkie… You saved my life!” Fluttershy said. She hugged her friend.

“I’m so glad you’re save Fluttershy. I promise I’ll never to that again. Said Rainbow Dash. The whole gang looked at Twilight.

“Now will you come in?” asked Applejack. Twilight looked over at her dragon friend, Spike.

“Go, Twilight. You can just wash yourself afterwards,” he said.

“Well… Alright…” said Twilight. She did summersaults as she dove form the diving bored. Spike was right after her. Twilight did a huge splash in the water, and her friends cheered. Suddenly, there was a bright light, a letter fell into Spike’s lap.

“Twilight! A new letter from the princess is here!” said Spike. The Mane 6 came over. Spike cleared his throat and said,

“Dear My Faithful Student,

Here I have seven tickets to go on the S.S. Mane, the most finest boat in Equstria. I will also be attending my royal duties on the ship, and I hope to see you and your friends, oh and Spike too! The boat leaves in two weeks, make sure to pack your bags, and be ready to leave at 9:00. I hope to see you there!

From,

Princess Celestia”

“A cruise? Maybe I can finally show my designs to the princess!” said Rarity.

“Maybe an awesome flying show will be there, I will sign up and win 1st place!” said Rainbow Dash.

“I’ll just stick with the animals on the ship, I love them!” said Fltutershy.

“Now I can finally sell some of those apples Granny Smith and I have made, and we can replace that old barn of ours!” said Applejack.

“A cruise is all about the fun! Just let good ole’ Pinkie Pie plan all of the parties!” said Pinkie Pie.

“Spike, take a note!”

“Dear Princess Celestia,

Thank you for inviting us to the cruise. I can’t wait to see you again! (And I’ll try to drag Spike along if I can.) I’ll see you with all of my friends in two weeks on the S.S. Mane!

From Your Faithful Student,

Twilight Sparkle”

Chapter 2

The sun shined through Twilight Sparkle’s window. The birds were chirping, not a cloud in the sky, it was the most perfect day. Twilight stirred awake in her bed and rolled over to look at her clock. 8:45. Twilight just sat there, thinking there was something she was suppose to do. Then it dawned on her. Today was the day where the S.S. Mane was leaving in Canterlot fifteen minutes from now!

“Spike!” she shouted. Spike jumped five from his bed into the air, Twilight caught him just in time.

“We need to leave now! The cruise ship is leaving in fifteen minutes! Quick, grab our bags and drop them in the carriage,” Twilight saw a carriage with two pegasi waiting. Spike and Twilight quickly threw clothes, food, hairbrushes, toothpaste, and several other things into their bags. They dashed outside and dropped their bags in the carriage, then they ran over to Applejack’s farm. They burst into her room.

“Applejack! We need to leave now!” But Applejack wasn’t in her bed. She was neatly folding some blankets over in the corner.

“Oh, hey Twilight! I just got up early to do some chores. I was just planning on seeing you to go, sugar cube,” she said.

“No time now, just drop your stuff in the carriage outside and let’s head on over to Fluttershy’s,” said Twilight. The two friends and Spike ran outside and quickly ran over to Fluttershy’s house. They didn’t realize that Fluttershy was already up and they ran right into her.

“Hi Twilight! Hi Applejack!” she said.

“Sorry about that Fluttershy. Listen, drop your stuff into the carriage outside, we need to leave for the cruise! After your done, got get the others and have them meet us here,” said Twilight. Fluttershy nodded nervously and ran outside towards Pinkie Pie’s house. Meanwhile, Twilight, Appljack, and Spike were in the carriage.

“Didn’t your alarm clock go off at seven?” asked Applejack.

“I don’t know! It’s been acting up all week, I tried to fix it with my magic, but it doesn’t seem to be working. I just don’t know what to do,” said Twilight. She quickly checked her watch she was wearing.

“Oh, great. We have ten minutes left,” said Twilight.

“Calm down, Twi, we’ll make it,” said Spike. He leaned over towards one of the pegasi.

“Hey, can you guys go extra fast so we can get there on time?” he whisped. The pegasus nodded. Suddenly, Twilgiht saw Fluttershy with Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity running towards her.

“Good! You guys are here. Just drop your stuff in the back and let’s go!” said Applejack. The ponies did as told and everyone hopped in.

“Everyone in?” asked one of the pegasi. Twilight counted to make sure everyone was here.

“Yes, wait… Where is Pinkie Pie?” The friends looked around for Pinkie and saw her up in a tree.

“Pinkie, what are you doing up there?” shouted Rainbow Dash.

“I wanna get a snack for the road,” said Pinkie, grapping an apple with her hoof.

“No time for snacks, and we’re not on the road, we’re in the sky, and I hate flying…” said Rarity.

“Rarity, I love you, but please, don’t dramatize everything…” thought Twilight. Pinkie quickly ran over and dropped in next to Fluttershy, who was smiling at her. Rainbow Dash made her way next  to Applejack.

“Ok, is everyone here now, Pinkie?” asked Twilight. Pinkie made a little sound which meant “here”.

“All right then, off we go!” said Spike. The pegasi went into the air in two seconds flat, and the whole gang was off to Canterlot, but will they be able to get there in time?
