Tourists: A "Ponies on Earth" Story.

It all started with Spike's Indigestion. He was groaning in pain from something large residing in his stomach. Twilight was trying some different sort of cures on Spike in the middle of a field outside of Sweet Apple Acres.

"OK, Let's try the mix of Seltzer, Rubies, and Hay." said Twilight.

"Where did you *ugh* get that Recipe?" asked Spike.

"From the book, '1,039 Cure-Alls (Dragon Edition)' and this is currently the 994th cure-all we haven't tried." said Twilight.

"Well, 994th time's a Charm." said Spike as Twilight shoved the Mixture down his throat. At that point Spike's Stomach was making a extremely loud rumbling noise that could be heard across Ponyville. Twilight ran for the trench where her friends were waiting for her.

"I have to ask, Why are we Hiding in here again?" asked Rarity.

"Safety Precautions." said Applejack

Spike's rumbling was getting louder and louder.

"DUCK AND COVER!!" yelled Pinkie as Spike let out a large "BUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The six each popped out of the trench as Twilight ran towards Spike.

Spike was laying on the ground next to a large crate.

"That's Odd." said Twilight

"What Is It?" asked Applejack.

"It's A Crate." said Twilight.

"Where did it Come from?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"It seems to be from the Princess." remarked Twilight.

"Good Thing I always keep a Crowbar Handy." said Pinkie Pie.

Pinkie ran towards the Crate and Jammed the Lid open with said Crowbar. The Lid flew off 20 feet to the North.

"What's Inside,Pinkie?" asked Twilight.

"A New Spellbook, 6 Suitcases, and the entirety of Green Day's Studio albums on Vinyl." said Pinkie.

"Let me see that book." said Twilight. Her horn glowed as the Book levitated in to the air."It's a book of teleportation Spells, and there seems to be a note from the Princess on a page of the book." said Twilight.

The note was as follows,

"My Faithful Student,

I have heard reports of you being tired and in need of a Vacation, as are your friends. With that said, There is a Place that I am curious about myself and would like for your friends to check out.This place, our scholars entitled "Earth". Included with the care package is a collection of "Earth Music" that fell out of a Portal 5 weeks ago. The page I have placed this note on is a spell to transport 6, and only 6 ponies, to "Earth"  and back within a Week. Report back on your findings when you return. I believe in you.

Princess Celestia."

Twilight had a look of uncertainty on her face. But then, she had a resurgence in her self-confidence and announced to the group,

"Listen, The princess wants to go to an alternate universe for research, but mainly for leisure. We'll meet back here tomorrow for the Transportation. Each of you take A Suitcase. It's Gonna Be A Long Journey." announced Twilight
