Several months ago, Twilight learned one of the most powerful spells in Equestria. She learned a spell that can not only time travel, but travel to different dimensions as well. Twilight has been perfecting the spell for months straight prioritizing the spell as much as she can, she plans on using the spell for learning about a species she and one of her friends have been thinking about for a long time, humans. Ever since she heard the tall tale stories of humans, three years ago to be exact, she couldn't stop thinking about their culture, achievements, science, and history.

Twilight woke from her dreamless sleep in the silence and looked at the clock. 7:30AM? Oh no, I overslept! Twilight instantly got out of her bed and landed on the crystal floor with a loud clunk noise. She looked over to see Spike still sleeping snoring whilst doing so. He's gonna have to get a bigger bed soon Twilight thought getting distracted, she soon quickly got back on track and opened her bedroom door to the long hallway. Walking into the hallway she can clearly tell a difference in the temperature "I hate winter" Twilight quietly muttered to herself.

After a long walk through the windy, wibbly-wobbly hallways Twilight walked to her throne room. As she walks into the room she sees the familiar sight of a frame of a portal atop on the large table in the middle of the room. The portal's design is to only handle just one outrance to another universe, its obvious intention is to go to the human realm. Twilight walked up to the frame and caressed her hoof over the bottom left "I wonder how many adventures I'm going to have with this" Twilight pondered, levitating a notepad that held the information of where and when she wanted to 'visit' "The tall tale says that the best time to visit humans is the year 3100 BC, huh, I do wonder what BC means... Lyra will just tell me when she gets here" Twilight said aloud just as the doors open

A familiar mare with a mint green coat walks into the room "Good morning Lyra" Twilight bids, as Lyra gives her a good morning as well.

"What step of the plan are we doing today?" Lyra asks tilting her head

"I think we're finally ready to ignite the portal into action!" Twilight said, with excitement building up every word she announces while her hooves stomping on the crystal floor generating a clippity clop noise.

"Are you serious this time?" Lyra asks not taking the news seriously. Her eyelids half-lidded like when somepony says something plain out stupid.

"Why don't we just find out," Twilight said with a bigger than a slight smile

"What the hay, why not?" Lyra replied walking up next to Twilight. Twilight closes her eyes focusing on the spell. soon a long silence builds in the large room. Like when they practiced, Lyra starts her part of the spell thirty seconds later. The tip of Twilight's horn lights up as the light slowly pushes down her horn until the entire appendage is glowing. Lyra's part of the spell immediately begins after Twilight levitates in the air. Lyra's horn glows completely, shorter than at how long Twilight took, very likely just because Lyra's part is more simple than Twilight's.

They both levitate five feet above the ground, they no longer levitate higher, their eyes turn pure white. Just then, a strong magical beam shoots out of Twilight's and Lyra's horn making contact with the frame. The beams disappear as the spell dissipates. Twilight and Lyra stop hovering and hit the ground at the same time, both of their legs collapse under them as they try to battle the weak feeling they have. Looking up, Lyra sees that still no portal has appeared. Lyra walked up to the portal slowly.

"Agh! Dammit!" Lyra yelled in anger kicking it with her hind leg gaining a flinch from Twilight

"Lyra please, calm down," Twilight said quickly, walking over to Lyra "I know it's-"

"Yes! I know!-" Lyra interrupted before she got interrupted by the portal frame creating an ear-piercing noise. Instantly the both of them cover their ears with their hooves. This has little to no effect, Twilight spawned a protective shield around them that halted the sound entering the interior of the bubble shield. They slowly walk backward, the origin of the sound was discovered as they look at the portal frame, in the middle, a blue 2-D horizontal disc was expanding slowly. The disc expanded further and further until it hit the frame of the portal stopping it from expanding any further.

Twilight and Lyra look at the seemingly working portal, watching the spin of the blue like a blue soup going round and round forever. They look at it for what feels like an eternity, the only sound they hear is nothing. The bubble shield Twilight was casting imploded on itself and disappeared. "Heh... Ha..." Twilight's blank face turns into a face of pure joy looking at their accomplishment, a smile grows on Lyra's face "After all these months it has finally worked!" Twilight exclaimed walking up to the portal around five feet away from it. She could feel a gentle breeze being sucked into the portal to only Celestia knows.

"Don't get your hopes too high, we don't even know if this thing works the way its supposed to" Lyra assured Twilight walking up next to her. Still with a smile on her face "We finally got a hoof hold on this thing, we're so close to figuring this out" Lyra said being mesmerized by the looking and the feeling of the portal. What do you suppose we do now, Twilight?" Lyra asked backing away from the site and walked up to a table right side of the entry. Lyra took ahold of a notepad and jotted their findings out on the print.

"I guess we should throw something in it, attached to a rope, then pull it back, see what happens" Twilight made up with a hoof to her chin

"Seems reasonable" Lyra replied, finishing her writing. She places the notepad down on the table “Do you have any rope?” Lyra questioned

“Yeah, it should be-“ Twilight was interrupted by the door slamming open. It revealed Spike, wide-eyed with fright

"What in Equestria was that noise?" Spike asked quietly calming down to see that they were still alive. Just then, Spike spotted something in the portal frame, he gasped pointing towards it with his claw "You actually go that thing to work? Bout' time!' Spike cheered with joy

"Hey, Spike?" Twilight asked getting his attention "Can you get us some rope, please?"

With a quick salute, Spike walks to his intended location
