It was an ordinary day in Ponyville. But today was something very ordinary. Twilight has just bought a PC and is ready to play some games. Her first game was going to be Sonic Forces, but Pinkie and Rainbow, (along with Spike) had other plans.
~~~~
"The Impossible Quiz?" Twilight asked. "Yeah!" Pinkie said. "Everypony is saying that this game is super fun!" Twilight was not amused. "Super fun?" Twilight asked. "Yeah." Rainbow said. "Even though it's impossible, Everypony is playing it." Twilight sighed. "Do I really have to do this?" She asked. "Yup. That's the rule" Spike told Twilight.
Twilight sighed again. She wanted to play something exciting, but according to her friends, this game was more exciting. So it looks like she doesn't have any options. She pressed the play button and watched a weird intro created by this person named 'Slapp-me-do.'
"Alright. Let's get right into it." Twilight says pressing start. And with that we have the first question.
"How many holes in a polo?" Pinkie read out.
"Oh come on, This is so easy. I have many shirts in my closets including polos. And each of them have 3 holes." Twilight assured clicking the answer 3.
BOOM!
"GAH!" Twilight called out taken by surprise by the boom. The question remained the same, and she looked down and noticed she has 2 lives left.
"Uh...I think you got that wrong." Rainbow inquired.
"What? Impossible. Every shirt has three holes, how could it possibly be wrong?" Twilight said confused.
"SEE? That's what we thought too." Pinkie piped up.
"Hmm...Did ya count the hole to put ON the shirt?" Spike asked Twilight...to which she slapped her forehead in realization.
"Of course!" Twilight sighed clicking 4. She got it right, and she moved on to the next question.
"Can a match box?" Rainbow read out loud as Pinkie, Rainbow, and Spike looked in confusion.
"I'm sorry, WHAT?" Twilight said looking at the question. I guess...it just doesn't make any sense. But then Pinkie took the mouse in realization.
"I KNOW THIS ONE! I heard it in a joke one. 'Can a match box? NO. BUT A TIN CAN! HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Pinkie laughed out loud as she clicked the answer which was indeed correct.
"Nice one, Pinks." Rainbow cheered as Twilight rolled her eyes and read outloud the 3rd question.
".sdrawkcab noitseuq siht rewsna...?" Twilight read or trying to read.
"Is this even English? Like what?" Spike piped up.
"Hmm...perhaps it's some ancient hieroglyphic readings...NOW WE'RE GETTING SOMEWHERE! I think I can decipher this, guys, but it can take some time...maybe 2 to 3 days till I actually study these ancient readings..." Twilight explained.
"Answer this question backwards..." Rainbow read outloud as Twilight, Pinkie, and Spike turned to her.
"Huh?" Twilight said.
"That's what it says. Looking at it I kinda read it backwards." Rainbow explained. Soon everyone turned to the impossible quiz answers: K.O, what, I don't understand, and tennis elbow
"But what's the answer?" Pinkie asked.
"Well...since it's backwards...I guess the answer is K.O. since it's OK backwards." Twilight inquired clicking K.O. Correct! Next answer.
"You have GOT to be kidding me." Twilight said in shock as she looked at the question. Click the Answer...yet literally every answer is 'out of order' now this one really stumped the princess.
"How...just HOW can we answer this when EVERY ANSWER IS OUT OF ORDER!?" Twilight asked wildly as she was moving her mouse around allot. Spike then noticed something as the frustrated Alicorn princess moved her mouse frantically.
"Twilight!" Spike called out gaining her attention. "Click...THE ANSWER." Spike said hinting at answer.
"I don't underst-" Suddenly it clinked to her. With a frustrated sigh she moved her mouse to the word 'THE ANSWER' and it literally glowed pink...that means...Twilight clicked on it and YES it was the answer.
"Unbelievable." She said deadpanned. This question was actually different. There were bold letters saying Put the mouse on here pointing on a button. The moment she got to the button, everything went blue with a rule that says Don't touch the blue with another button just at the other side,
"Hmm... does it say anything about going off the grid?" Twilight sighed.
"Doesn't say anything about that." Rainbow replied
"Then let's do this." Twilight said pulling the mouse back and off the grid carefully making its way to the other side without touching blue. With that, without taking the mouse so close into the blue, Twilight pressed the button to the next question.
√onion
"Ok...square root, I'm a scholar at...BUT WHAT THE HECK IS THE SQUARE ROOT OF AN ONION?! THAT'S LIKE...UNHEARD OF!? Twilight objected in irate.
"Alright...I'll have to take the stupid route on this. Let's see...onion is a root, right?" Twilight asked her friends as they nodded their heads in approval. "Right, and if you say...chop them into tinier pieces square even they would be like...shallots! So the answer must be..." Twilight said clicking shallots... DING
"See, guys, even the stupidest questions need a little more thought." Twilight boasted as she went on to the next question.
"The answer is really big." Spike read outloud. The answers were, Answer in a REALLY big font, the literal 'really big' an elephant, or ∞.
"HAHA! Finally, sorry, but this one is just too easy." Twilight said boastfully as she clicked the ∞ sign first. then...
BOOM! The Alicorn's life was now at 1. But she looked in shock.
"B-b...WHAT?! HOW COULD IT BE WRONG?!" Twilight yelled out.
"Twi-" Spike called out to calm her friend.
"NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, AND NO! I'm not accepting that's the wrong answer! INFINITY IS THE LARGEST NUMBER IN EXISTENCE AND YOU'RE SAYING IT'S WRONG?!" Twilight yelled out objectively. The frustrated princess then took a deep long breath and sighed.
"Ok. The answer isn't ∞. Fine then. Let's see..." Twilight said looking at the remaining answers quizzically.
"Hmm...maybe, it's one of those questions. The question, that's telling me the answer. And if that's the case..." Twilight said but was stopped by Rainbow.
"One life, dude, are you sure you wanna risk it?" Rainbow asked.
"Only one way to find out. Perhaps it's...really big?" Twilight said clicking the answer really big.
BOOM!
GAME OVER, try again.
"Ya lost." Pinkie said as Twilight only looked meekly at the screen. She then got up from her computer chair without a word, rubbing her head in frustrastion.
"Hold on, let me just get some water. We're gonna be here for a long LOOOOONG while." Twilight sighed as the other two ponies and baby dragon only sighed.
