Three Bronies and the Mane Six

Ponyville, Equestria

"Twilight! You need to see this," yelled Spike down the hallway.

Twilight Sparkle, hearing him, rushed over to the throne room, where the young dragon seemed panicky.

"what's wrong, Spike", Twilight asked, concerned for her assistant.

Spike pointed to the cutie mark map and that's when Twilight saw what had caused Spike's distress.

For one, the cutie mark map had changed, instead of showing a map of Equestria, it was showing a map of what looked like a small island.

Twilight walked closer to the map and examined it.

Yes, it was showing a island, with another large island to the west and what looked like multiple divisions.

" how strange, why is the cutie mark map showing a island", Twilight wondered out loud.

Using the map as a reference, Twilight rummaged through her atlas books to see if this island appeared on any Royal charts.

Despite this, she could not find this island and when she came back to the cutie mark map, the map had changed once again, this time showing a cutie mark over a city.

Twilight zoomed in on the location and what she saw caused her to gasp.

The city being showed looked a bit like Canterlot, but much bigger and one of its defining features was a clock tower towards a major part of the city.

Even more surprising was the cutie mark being transmitted: Pinkie Pie's.

Suddenly, Twilight's train of thought ended when she heard a knock at the door.

" I'll get it," Spike said, jumping down from the map and rushing to the door.

Upon opening the door, a familiar pink pony began her rumbling, " hiya Spike, I just got this cutie mark sensation going on and well, i figured something was happening at the map and so I rushed here as fast as I could and oh, HMM, is that pancakes I smell"?

" uh, yeah, Pinkie, we just had breakfast, want to come in", Spike asked.

Pinkie bounced her way into the castle and asked, " where's Twilight"?

" right here, Pinkie", Twilight replied, smiling at her friend.

" hiya Twilight, i came here as fast I could, are there any other cutie marks on the map," the eccentric pink pony asked.

Twilight shook her head.

" no, just yours, and that's not even the strangest part. The map... it's showing what looks like another country and the thing is, I can't find it on any of my maps," Twilight says, sighing.

Twilight led Pinkie down to the cutie mark map and showed her the oddity.

Pinkie peered at the map, utterly captured by it.

" ooh, I've never seen this city before, it looks like Canterlot", Pinkie gasps.

Twilight nods and replies, " I got into contact with Princess Celestia and any minute now, I should be getting some of the maps from the Royal Canterlot library".

A few minutes later, Twilight, Pinkie Pie, and Spike are pouring over the newly shipped maps from Canterlot.

" hmm, I see," Twilight murmurs to herself.

" what is it, Twilight, " Spike asks excitedly.

Twilight shows them the map she found the answer to.

" according to this, the landmass we found, it's not from this world, it's almost like that other world I was sent to", Twilight explains.

" ooh, you mean the world where you met that really awesome guy and all your fans were freaking out and were like, " sink this ship" and stuff", Pinkie asked.

Twilight blushed a little and replied, " yeah that guy, but what do you mean " my fans" ?

" oh, nothing, just a hunch", Pinkie replied.

" well, we need to get you to this place somehow, after all, the map WANTS you to go there, " Twilight explains.

"Spike, can you find me a book with a inter-dimensional teleportation spell, please, " asked Twilight.

"sure thing, Twilight, " spike replies, giving her the thumbs up.

He then rushed to the library and began flipping through pages of spellbooks until he found the one Twilight wanted.

" here you go, Twilight, " Spike exclaims, reaching out to her with his clawed hand.

" Thank you, Spike, " Twilight replies, lifting the book with her magic.

Bringing the spellbook to eye level, Twilight opened it up to the page Spike had marked.

As she read the page, she nodded slowly, murmuring, " hmm" every so often.

" well, can you do the spell, " Spike asked nervously.

" yeah, can you" Pinkie asked, bouncing a little as she said so.

" I'm not sure, guys. It'll require intense amounts of concentration", Twilight replies...
