I felt the urge to crack open the violet book, but I resisted. Why is it pulling so hard? I have no interest in ponies!

That day at school, I asked Kylie about the book. She claimed that she had nothing to do with it but I didn't believe her. All day, my mind wandered. In math, our teacher, Mrs. Diddelly, had to whack a ruler on my desk in order to get my attention. I don't care what the factors of 83 are! All I care about is this book that randomly appeared in my bookcase!

Just then, there was a flash! I looked around me, but all I saw was white. Suddenly, the ground dropped out from under me and soon, I was traveling through some sort of portal! I felt my body start to shift. Then, everything went black.

When I finally regained consciousness, I was shocked by the sight. I was no longer at school, but was in a purple room with a large mirror, dusty boxes, and other junk. When I rolled onto my stomach I looked at my...hooves?! I tried to stand up, but fell. No,no,no, I thought! This cannot be happening! I stood up on all fours, and took a couple of steps toward the door. Just as I was about to turn the handle, two pony guards came and escorted me down the hallway. The guards spoke of nothing, so I had time to try and figure things out. Maybe this is a test, I wondered. Kylie must have set this up! Surely this is not real! Right?

The guards led me down a corridor and stopped at a door on the right. They motioned for me to walk in, so I obeyed. The 2 ponies followed me into the room. The room was huge with white walls. There were statues on either side of me, and there were glass pictures on the walls. The guards stopped me feet away from a throne in the center of the room. Atop the throne, a tall, white unicorn with wings and a colorful mane and tail was seated.

One of the guards said " your majesty, we found this unfamiliar looking pony in the mirror room! She hasn't said a word since we found her."

The pony on the throne replied, " I would like to speak with this young filly!"

The second guard asked, "shall we stay for the conversation?"

"No. You may continue patrolling the halls."

And with that, the guards turned and trotted away. The white pony waited until the guards were out the door until she started talking.

"My name is Princess Celestia of Equestria. What is yours, little one?"

"Sugar Blossom" I answered slowly, pronouncing every syllable carefully.

"What a marvelous name. What brings you to the palace?"

"Uh..."
