The Time Machine

     After three years he finally did it, he created a machine so powerful it would allow ponies to travel through diffrent time dimensions. And it was all done with science! No magic needed, completely earth pony made! All to find out a unicorn had done it ages ago.

      Dr. Whooves was in his laboratory, working on a flyer for a new assistant to help test his creation. When suddenly he heard a knock on the door.

He kept looking at his work and distractedly answered "Whp is it?".

"It's Twilight!".  Twilight said.

"Hmm?" Dr. Whooves asked.

"Twilight, Twilight Sparkle?"

"Oh my!"  Dr. Whooves ran to open the door.

"Princess!" He bowed.

"Oh please don't be so fussy, I'm a just another pony." She said.

Dr. Whooves thought differently but had heard about the Princess' stubbornness when it came to her title. So he gave in.

"Ok then, Twilight. What brings you to my cottage?".

"Not much, but I did here of your new invention." said Twilight curiously.

"Really!?" said Dr. Whooves alerted.

"Who told you?"

"Well it's all over Ponyville!" She pointed out.

Dr. Whooves took a moment to take this in, who had he told? He only rememebered telling zag he mail pony Derpy over afternoon tea. He noted to have a conversation with the mare about his private work.

"Well I came here to tell you... that well, there is already a spell for time travel for advanced unicorns." Twilight stated with a sigh of relief.

Suddenly Dr. Whooves snapped into reality. He ducked his head and closed his eyes.

"Thank you for visiting Princess, if you don't mind I would like some privacy now." Dr. Whooves said with a strained voice.

Twilight turned around, and after looking back a few times, slowly walked out the door.
