"I'm coming Twilight, jeez... why are you so excited anyways?" Rainbow Dash asked, looking towards Twilight in a confused, yet engrossed stare.
Rainbow trots downstairs to Twilight's laboratory (Yes, Twilight has a laboratory).
"Because Rainbow, I just discovered a new world on the radar! It seems to be a lot like ours in terms of species. In fact, exactly like ours! The DNA matches up, and so does everything else!" Twilight Replied, exhilaratingly reading all of the information that her machine was providing her.
"Look at all of this information I've gathered! I can't wait to read it all! The last time I've been to another world was the time whenever I had to save my friends at Canterlot High from the Sirens!" Twilight exclaimed.
"It's weird though, that world I was in spoke the same language as us; I just can't help but feel like that's not the case for this world that I've found," She sighed.
However, then she thought of an idea. "Rainbow, could you bring me the Auditory Language and the Textorial Language converters?" Twilight asked, looking up to the blue pegasus.
"Got it!" Rainbow replied, before flying back upstairs. The language converters are complicated pieces of equipment that Twilight had come up with, since her magic may be disabled in this new world due to how different it could be from her own. It takes three hours for the Auditory Language Converter to fully translate any language into Equestrian, no matter how complicated the language is. However, for the Textorial Language Converter, it takes about 3 days. What's convenient is that the Auditory and Textorial Language Converters also allow you to speak Equestrian, and it automatically translates into whatever language you want. What's the point in understanding a language if you can't speak it?
"Here ya go Twilight," Rainbow Dash said. The Auditory Language Converter was a smooth, black triangular that could easily fit into a pony ear. The Textorial Language Converter had a black and orange streak, the rest being purple in color. It had two poles connecting to something that looked like sunglasses.
"How are you going to hide them?" Rainbow Dash asked, confused. Twilight grinned as she put on the devices and pressed a button which made them disappear.
"Of course, it'd obviously be something that's... you know, eggheady," Rainbow Dash sighed, as she facehoofed. As Twilight was trotting to her custom-made mirror, she strapped a device on to it that made the mirror itself turn into purple patterns, as purple sparks danced across the surface. As she hooked it up to her computer, it made a beeping sound.
"Ah, it's ready!" Twilight beamed.
"Sorry, but what's ready?" Rainbow Dash replied, confused.
"The portal, silly! Oh, and I think it's ready to display the map," Twilight replied.
"Interesting, very interesting..." Twilight mumbled to herself, intrigued by the map. As she reads over the data that shows how the physics in this new world works, she suddenly seemed more excited than ever.
"Oh my gosh, Rainbow! One day in this world apparently equals one year in that world! Oh, and apparently the world is called Hima, but do you know what this means!?" Twilight asked, so excited that Rainbow thought Twilight would have a heart attack.
"...no?" Rainbow replied, obviously confused.
"It means that I can spend about a lifetime there and come back, and only 90 days would have passed! So that means I'm going to be away for 90 days!" Twilight stated, not noticing that Rainbow flinched at that statement, looking hurt.
"Oh... okay. Just promise me you'll stay out of trouble and not get hurt, okay?" Rainbow asked.
It's not normal for Rainbow Dash to be mushy all of a sudden, what's going on? Twilight thought to herself.
"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be fine," Twilight stated, looking at Rainbow with slight suspicion.
"Anyways, I need you to inform my friends about me being gone for 90 days, and that they absolutely CAN'T come with me, especially Pinkie. It might mess up my whole disguise and study if somepony realizes that I'm not from their world. Also, I think I need to make sure to have all my information, and some food along the way. I will launch myself into a forest where nopony will see me, and that's when I will disguise. I've studied the world without being there long enough to know that pony civilization has been there about 365,000 years, which is a lot considering our ponykind history has only been around for 2,000 years." Twilight stated, almost out of breath. After she recovered, she asked Rainbow Dash a question.
"Rainbow, do you want to get some food and take it back here? I'm starving,"
"Sure Twilight, let's go," Rainbow replied. And with that, they headed off towards Sugarcube Corner. As they were trotting along the road, Twilight and Rainbow noticed something. They saw Trixie with a stallion. The stallion had gold-yellow eyes, had a brown mane and tail, had a red coat, and oddly enough, no cutie mark. They were talking about something, and Rainbow couldn't help but eavesdrop.
"Before you do, The Great and Powerful Trixie asks that you pay her at least 35 bits," Trixie stated. The mysterious stallion happily took out the money and gave it to her.
"All right, follow me!" Trixie commanded, winking at him. Disgusted by what she heard, she decided she didn't want to hear any more of it, and caught up with Twilight. They ordered several cupcakes before heading back to the treehouse. They went back downstairs to Twilight's laboratory, which contained the portal.
"Well, I guess I better start heading out, see ya Rainbow!" Twilight exclaimed, finishing her cupcakes and about to go in to the portal. She then straps on a heavy backpack to her side.
"See ya later, Twily!" Rainbow Dash replied, catching Twilight off guard with the nickname. Right before stepping into the portal, Rainbow kissed Twilight on the check, then Twilight stepped into the portal. As she landed in a forest seemingly in the middle of nowhere, Twilight thought to herself.
Wait a minute... did Rainbow Dash, one of my six bestest friends, the want-to-be Wonderbolts member, the one who I have always been close to, just kiss me!?
