The Barrel
”One day, I will enter the world again old friend, and when I do..
You shall die, Starswill...”
Twilight was so excited, she just got her latest Antique Barrel from the Starswill Antique Store. I decided to celebrate our victory against the Shadow Pony with some unbarreling! Starlight was busy with Sunburst, in bed, so I did it by myself. I gently lowered it down to the floor. PLONK! Then I opened it by hoof. The way to the best experience with the ‘Barrels’ was to do it by hoof after putting it down. “Hmph! Open all ready! Why does it always slip like that!” I cursed. Soon I found the clamp and opend the barrel.
“Yeeeasss! Opened it! Oh yeah I did it! I did!” I shouted, I was always this happy when I opened it this way. I started to take the first item out...
“Twilight, what were you shouting about?” asked Spike,”And why did you let Starlight and Sunset in my bedroom?”
“Sorry Spike. I wasn’t concentrating. I got a new barrel so....” I started.
“It’s ok Twi. Been a rough weel for us all. I suppose I did prank Starlight this morning...” Spike confessed.
“SSSSssspppiiiiIKE! No wonder she wanted her ‘session’ in your bed. No if you don’t mind I am busy. Plus don’t you need to finish my paperwork. If there is any thing were I have to leave the Castle within the next 3 days. Inam not going!” I shouted, unimpressed by both Spike and Starlight.
“Ok Twi...”
Spike soon left to go into the study. Yeesh! He is very nosy and annoying. Why does he ALWAYS have to be around when I am in THIS mood, I DONT KNOW! ”Ugh!” I grunted. Then I focused on the barrel again. I took out the first item, well it wasn’t just one it was a series of old dusty books!”Starswill’s guide ancient relics Vol 11-20! Yeeeeaasss! I have looked everywhere for this this is the last set of these to complete my collection. I have evry book up to VoL 50 but these! Squee!” I squeed. I was so happy. But I hadn’t order super ultra deluxe barrel or XXXXXXXXXXL for nothing, did I?
Yes, usually ten books would have taken up a whole barrel. But this one uses ‘Pinkie Logic’! Like Pinkie it can hold an unusual amount of items in a small area, like her mane. So it was a normal sized barrel, just 10 times the amount of items!”Squee!”
I took out item after item of items after items. And all those items was a build your own flying machine from 875 years ago. Well on an average/ guess. After that we had only half a barrel left, or LESS. I didn’t really need the flying machine but it was a nice collectable to give to Sunburst as a present for helping us with the ‘Starswill Case’. He did say he wondered how I fly with these wings, before.
I took the next thing out. Pony Tale Classics! All the original folk tales written in one book a thousand years back. True stories, like the fall of Discord and fake such as the Rainbow Factory! The Rainbow Factory was an old pegasus tale to make sure all fillies and colts in Cloudsdale try their hardest at everything they do. Cloudsdale was always a city wanting to their the best!
So I took the next thing out, and antique Saddle Arabian set, containing ‘addle silver ware, pots, children’s toys(for Flurry) and Saddles! At least over a thousand years old! And after a few hours of unpacking loads of old books from the Castle of the Two Sisters there was just one more item left.
“The Last one is the Best! They always say!” I said to myself.
”And Starswill, for I have seen what the future holds for you.
I have prepared a gift. Lets say a farewell party!
You WILL leave your students behind.
ALONE!”
“NEVER! I will never leave them ALONE!” Shouted Starswill.
“Too late, you already did. And guess what! Their parents just DIED!”
“THEY, they couldn’t have!” Shouted Starswill.
“Well they did, farewell Starswill.
ALTHOUGH...
I shall indeed see you again...”
At the bottom of the barrel was an old pocket whatch. It was dusty and small enough to hold in your hoof. I picked it up. “MIIINNE!” I shouted. “Wait, why did I say that?” I asked myself. Well never mind, I looked at it to realize it was morning, the next day. I had made spike work all night! Puzzled I hid it using my so no one could take it it was there all the time just hidden with my magic.
I saw Starlight Glimmer walking down the stairs. She saw I had a frown on my face.”Uhhh, hi Twilight....”
“Starlight! I expect better of you! Going into Spikes bedroom for your own pleasuring SEX with Sunburst. You must say soory to Spike NOW! He had to sleep on the floor if he even slept at all!” I scolded.
“Sorry Twilight,” said Sunburst as he walked down the stairs too,”You see, well, we didn’t use protection this time since Starlight has been in heat and we decided we wanted a kid. She made it go on all night just to make sure I got her pregnant and she wanted to get Spike back but she said we would leave before 11:00, Spike’s usual bed time....”
“PLEASE FOR GIVE US!” begged Starlight.
“Urgh, fine. I am tired too. I need some rest. Please don’t bother me. I have been up all night opening the Super Deluxe. You see,” I told the, as I left for upstairs. I yawned as I got to the top.
“Ahh, here we are Watchy, my bedroom as I placed the watch beside my bed and I took out a book to read. Fluttershy’s book on animals she wants me to edit. I read,”In an ecosystem, plants and animals are connected by their feeding relationships. These relationships are called a food web.A food web is made up of a number of linked food chains. A food web is a good way to show the different organisms that animals feed on. A food chain shows only one organism that each animal in the food chain feeds on, for example a lion eats a zebra. A food web shows all the different organisms that feed on each other, for example a lion eats zebra, impala and wildebeest.Parts of a food webA food web consists of the following groups of organisms:Plants, which make their own food by photosynthesis. We call plants producers because they..”
I fell asleep.
