The life of Aqua Light

The trip felt instantaneous to Aqua and Sam, and though Sam was color blind Aqua saw a vibrant spectrum of lights in many different colors. Many of which she couldn't describe by sight alone, in an odd way they could only be described by either taste or smell. She shouted how wonderful all of it was and wished Leyline could see it, before she knew it all that she saw came to an end.

She was surrounded by darkness, it was cool yet she could slowly feel the air around herself warming up. Not by much only to a rather comfortable temperature that made her feel like sleeping.

Suddenly she was startled awake by an overly cheerful voice, "OHMYGOSH!!!"

Popping up from under a small mound of books she was far more surprised to see Pinkie Pie,
"Who are you, where did you come from? NOWAIT!" She shouted diving into a book only to pop out of a freshly blooming rose, "I know who you are..." Falling out of the rose her face becoming as flat as the floor as she pointed, "you're here to help with the party aren't cha!?" She mumbled before grabbing Aqua and shaking her in excitement

"Um no I'm not. I don't even know where I am. Wait where's Sam!?" Aqua said looking around

Looking up Pinkie pointed, "Would that be Sam?" Following Pinkie's hoof Aqua saw Sam cowering in a corner of the ceiling, "I wonder how that poor puppy got up there."

Worried over Sam, Aqua began looking around for a ladder or at the least anything to help her get up to Sam. As she frantically looked around she heard the hopping from Pinkie only to turn and stare in awe of what she saw.

"I've got my party cannons hidden all over the place just for a party emergency..." She snickered as she stuffed herself into the cannon, "or in case of a cannon emergency." Before she could as where she was hiding such a thing in a room with nowhere to hide Pinkie launched herself up to Sam, "Don't worry your little head puppy, you're auntie Pinkie Pie is going to get you down."

Aqua felt Sam call out to her as Pinkie grabbed Sam, 'But in dog years I'm older than she is, in human years I'm still older than she is.'

As Pinkie held on to Sam she tried to pull her off the ceiling only to feel Sam get pulled back towards the ceiling, "Boy oh boy, you sure are stuck on here good. But by what!?" Walking around Sam, Pinkie examined the dog while surprising both Sam and Aqua, "It's not glue, not gum, definitely not peanut butter. Oh boy, I'm gonna need Twilight for this one." As she hopped away from Sam she made her way down the wall and out the door leaving Aqua bewildered at what she saw.
Physics just got slapped and rather hard by a fictional pony, it was then Aqua looked at herself and realized she too was a pony.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHH! Why am I a pony and how did I get here!!??" She yelled looking at herself in the mirror. Her mane and tail was black with aqua tips.

Before either of them knew what was going on Pinkie had returned with Twilight,
"Well because you have always been a pony since birth, but you do raise a few good questions." The lavender mare looked at both Aqua and Sam baffled as why they where in her castle,

"Who are the two of you, how did you get in here, and where did you come from?"

As Aqua began to introduce the two of them all she could manage was her name before Pinkie popped up, "Oh their a duo from another world where she is a creature that walks on two legs called a human." Pouncing around the room Pinkie noticed that all eyes were not on her, "What? You think that's weird, I called what happen to Twilight when she stepped through that magic mirror portal."

With an annoyed sigh Twilight waved her hoof in the air, "And let me guess you can also tell us how she got here."

Looking at Aqua she hummed, "Starswirl Rosen Bridge, though in her world it would be called something else I guess."

As Aqua looked between Pinkie and Twilight, she noticed that they were from MLP: Friendship is Magic. That show was her favorite on T.V.

She was bewildered and shocked that not only did her machine worked, she had gone from one world to another with little to no memory of the trip itself. All she could recall was the colors she saw and how little she felt, it was almost like a dream in its own way.

As Pinkie started hopping around Twilight looked up at Sam, "Well if that's what we are basing our guesses on, then I would have to say that what holds Sam there is an alteration of gravity."

Looking at Sam they both spoke at the same time, "So to get Sam down we just need to find a way to reverse the gravitational hold to gently bring her down." They stared at one another as they shrieked, "You know theoretical physics?" They gasped, "Of course I know it!"

As they continued with their little moment Pinkie started floating in the air, "Screw physics I'm Pinkie Pie."

Aqua looked at Pinkie and Twilight. She could tell that they would be great friends. Aqua held out her hoof and said "I'm Aqua Light and this cutie is my dog Sam"

Shaking her hoof Twilight smiled, "It's a pleasure to meet the two of you."

As Pinkie wrapped her hooves around Sam she started taking in air causing herself to slightly puff up, before Aqua could ask anything they watched as Pinkie slowly lowered herself and Sam to the ground.

Once they were safely on the ground Sam looked up at Aqua, 'I don't know how she did it, but she took in air and became heavier. I could understand if it was a gas like propane or something heavy that turns into a liquid when compressed. But to do that to air requires 61 atmospheres at a temperature of 292 kelvin, that's not physically possible to do within the body!' Sam sheepishly whimpered into Aqua's mind, 'She is just not normal, where is Leyline, he can answer this. Where is he?' Same started sniffing around the room hoping to find a trace of him somewhere in the world.

Before Aqua could tell her she couldn't find a single trace of him Twilight welcomed them to enjoy breakfast with them, Sam however wasn't ready to give up in her search as something in the corner of the room had caught her senses. It was faint but still there, yet at the same time it wasn't the same Leyline she knew. Something about the strain of hair was off about it, what she couldn't tell.

'Aqua...' Sam called out to her as though a squirrel had just crossed her path, 'Aqua he's here.' She started running down the hall trying to get Aqua's attention, 'Leyline is here somewhere, his scent is strange but I know him from anywhere. Aqua!

'How can you tell, Sam? He can't be here. Leyline wasn't in the room with us.' Aqua said to Sam. Sam barked knowing Leyline was here somewhere. Pinkie looked over at Sam and Aqua. "Something has that little puppy excited." Pinkie claimed picking up Sam in a loving cuddle, "Well your auntie Pinkie Pie will help take care of that."

Sam whimpered wondering how Pinkie was floating in the air with nothing to help her do so, 'To be fair, in dog years I'm far older than she is.' Wiggling out of Pinkies grasp she ran up to Aqua, 'I know he's here, the scent is off but it's his. And lets not forget Leyline once gave a lecture on the theories of the multiverse and possible varying flows of time. He could have fixed the machine and came here to look for us...' Sam began to walk at the same pace as Aqua giving a faint growl, 'although that wouldn't make much sense, he would have had to go back in time.'

Sam whimpered again trying to make sense of any of what was going on, "It is possible that there are two of him in the multiverse and you happened to pick up the scent of the one from this world." Pinkie chimed in causing all of them to stop and stare at her.

"Wait who are you talking to?" Twilight asked baffled as to what caused that answer.

"Huh, duh Twilight. I was talking to Sam."

Looking at the dog both Twilight and Aqua shouted, "YOU CAN TALK TO HER!?"

"Well of course sillies." She giggled hopping off.

'I'm going to be careful as to what I say when near her from now on.' Sam whined nuzzling Aqua.
