My Little Alchemist: Brotherhood is Magic (DO NOT POST)

A knock was heard on Twilight Sparkle's door. It was morning. Twilight Sparkle went up to the door and opened it with her unicorn magic. It was the local delivery mare, Derpy Hooves. Hovering about rather uncontrollably, the mailmare checked inside her saddlebag for the parcel that was meant for Twilight Sparkle. She pulled out a fairly large box, and handed it over to Twilight Sparkle.

"Here you go miss." Derpy said. She then pulled out a clipboard as well. "I just need you to sign here,"

"Thanks Derpy!" Twilight said, as she signed the clipboard. "I've always wanted to read this book!"

"Hehe. Just doin' my job." Derpy said, smiling sheepishly. "It was real hard getting this here. It came from all the way from Amestris. Beyond the Appleloosan Desert."

Twilight returned Derpy Hooves her clipboard. Twilight waved Derpy goodbye, and Derpy waved back, as she flew away to her next destination for her route. Twilight carried the parcel into the main study hall. She would open this box to find a book. It appeared quite plain in appearance.

"Wow! Real human magic! I've always wanted to see what humans can do!" she said to herself.

The Science of Alchemy

By Dr Tim Marcoh. Rewritten by Sciezka

Twilight Sparkle began to read out loud the contents of the book starting with the first chapter.

Alchemy, the science of understanding, deconstructing and reconstructing matter. However, it is not an all powerful art; It is impossible to create something out of nothing. If one wishes to obtain something, something of equal value must be given. This is the law of equivalent exchange, the basis of all alchemy. In accordance with this law, there is a taboo among alchemists: human transmutation is strictly forbidden...

Twilight continued to read through the chapters of this massive tome of a book. This book was by no means meant for ponies. However, Twilight felt that she could replicate Alchemy using unicorn magic. She began to write notes with her quill pen, floating it about. A wave of nostalgia hit Twilight Sparkle like a powerful gust. She had never been THIS immersed in a magic form ever since she was little, when she was just beginning to learn magic. Right now, she was learning a new kind of magic. She was willing to give it a test drive.

She saw a symbol. It was a fairly simple looking symbol. A circle, with a pattern inside it. The book calls it a "Transmutation Circle". A fitting name, she thought.. She replicated the pattern onto a large piece of paper. On top of it, she brought a large block of iron she got from the "Iron Blocks Galore" store. She then pointed her horn onto the transmutation circle. The horn glowed, and the transmutation circle responded by glowing with it.

In that moment, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy all walked in the library. They were here to ask Twilight Sparkle for a picnic. It was a nice day out anyways. As they walked in, Applejack stopped everypony else from interrupting Twilight Sparkle's magic experimentation.

As for the iron block, it began to glow, and then, after a brief flash, it was transformed. It was still the same iron block, only this time it looked like a miniature version of Princess Celestia. All the other ponies watched in awe. They were aware Twilight was capable of all sorts of magic, but not this.

"THAT WAS AWESOME!" blurted out Rainbow Dash. "HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!"

Twilight was shocked, and fell back a bit, completely thrown off by the fact that her friends were right there, when previously they were not.

"Wh...what was that?" stammered Fluttershy.

"Oh this?" said Twilight. "It's a new form of magic I'm learning. It's called Alchemy."

"Alchemy?" everypony else said.

"Yes. Although humans call it a science, I've found a way to replicate it using my magic." Twilight said. "It's something they have in a faraway land known as Amestris."

"TWILIGHT TWILIGHT!" Pinkie Pie said, jumping up and down. "WHAT ABOUT THE PICNIC?!"

"Oh right. Sorry girls. I'll just quickly get my stuff." Twilight said.

The Mane 6, as well as Spike, had gone to the park for a picnic. The Picnic proved to be rather uneventful. The weather was nice. Everypony was eating their sandwiches. Pinkie Pie was being Pinkie Pie. However, even then, even Pinkie Pie proved to be very bored. Twilight was simply reading her book of Alchemy.

"Mr Author! Can we skip to the part where something interesting happens?" said Pinkie Pie.

And, almost as though Pinkie Pie commanded an author to write this, something does happen.

Twilight Sparkle made another Transmutation circle. The same as before, and experimented with a piece of cake.

"Pinkie Pie, do you remember the ingredients of this cake?" Twilight asked.

"Of course! I used flour, sugar, milk..." Pinkie Pie gave her an entire list of cake ingredients. Twilight then used her alchemy to seemingly remove the bite mark on the cake, while making the slice of cake somewhat thinner than how it was originally cut.

"Alchemy is cool and all, but is that all the magic humans can do?" Rainbow Dash said, as she reclined on the ground, wearing her SWEET SHADES OF 20% COOLNESS.

"...I remember reading up on something about 'human transmutation' but..." Twilight trailed off.

"But what?" Rainbow Dash said.

"But it says here that nopony should ever try it. EVER." Twilight said. "Besides, we don't have a human to transmute."

"OOH! HERE'S SOMETHING YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY!" Pinkie Pie said, somehow having the book in her possession.

Twilight Sparkle began to read the section of the book Pinkie Pie opened up.

...it is said that the Philosopher's Stone destroyed the city of Xerxes in one night. It is also thought to give immortality. While varying in shape and name, ultimately, they are all the same things. It is said that this item can amplify one's alchemical abilities...

"Whoa nelly...this Alchemy stuff sounds mighty scary if y'all ask me." Applejack said.

"C'mon you guys. Everything on a larger scale is scary." reassured Twilight, somewhat nervously. "Besides...this is just an old folklore..."

"Why'd y'all get it anyways, sugarcube?" Applejack asked.

"Well..." said Twilight.
