MYST little pony

Chapter 2: The Image

“What, what is it?” whispered Fluttershy after what felt to the group like hours of silence.

Rainbow floated a little closer to the image “It, kind of looks like when I fly over Ponyville, but I've never seen an island like that.”

Twilight was the first to break her gaze, zipping over to a large book of maps in the corner and rapidly flipping through the pages. “Your right rainbow. I've looked through all of my maps of Equestria since pinkie brought me this book, and there’s no island anywhere that matches the image in that book”. With each syllable Twilight spoke faster, getting more frantic as she spoke. “I mean, there's not an island anywhere that matches it. And I looked through all my spell books too! There's nothing about making books with moving pictures. There's things about making books move but nothing of making the pictures move, there's just not a spell for it!”

With that Rarity stepped over to Twilight, and with a tentative hoof, patted the panting Twilight on the back. “We understand darling. We're as bewildered as you.”

At that same moment, Spike ran down the stairs, waving a scroll in his claw. “I got a letter back from the Princess!”

The next moments were a blur

As Twilight ran and skidded over to spike to retrieve the letter, she startled Fluttershy, who fell backwards, knocking over the center table. The MYST book went flying, into the air. With a loud shout of “I got it!” Rainbow Dash swooped at the falling book. The group watched, twilight turning around, letter floating in front of her, as Dash's hoof hit the image, and her friends watched as Dash glowed with a bizarre light, before vanishing like a piece of burnt paper. The book fell, landing on the ground in front of the amazed ponies.

The group was silent. Then, all at once, they all started.

“What the hay!”

“Dashie? Dashie!”

“EEEP!”

“Wh- What?!”

“Twilight? Twilight what was that?”

The only quiet one was the stunned Twilight Sparkle. She looked at the book now sitting on the floor, then down at the note floating before her. The note said only 4 things:

“To my Faithful Student Twilight:

Whatever you do: DO NOT TOUCH THAT IMAGE.

If someone does, I can't help you.

Princess Celestia.”

Twilight looked up from the scroll, to see her four friends staring at her.

“The... the Princess says she can't help us, she says not to touch the image, she... !”

Rarity gently placed her hoof on twilight's shoulder, calming her panic. Mustering all her ladylike dignity, she started to calmly speak. “Dear. Rainbow Dash just Vanished into a book. Pardon the language, but as Celestia as my witness I don't care what Celestia has to say.

With that Applejack stepped forward too, planting her hoof firmly on the ground. “I ain't about to let some old book steal a friend of mine like that!”

Pinkie Pie growled at the MYST tome on the floor. “First it hits me in the noggin, then it steals Dashie! I'm not gonna let this book do that to my friends!”

Fluttershy nodded vigorously.

With a tear in her eye, Twilight tossed the scroll to Spike She took a deep breath, and with renewed determination set to work. “Your right girls! Spike, watch the library for me, and if we're not back in 3 days, send the Princess a letter.”

Floating the table back to the center of the room, and placing the book back on it's pedestal with her horn's magic, Twilight stepped up to the book, flipping it open again to the swirling, flying image. She slowly raised her hoof. “Let's do this!”

And with that, Twilight slammed her hoof into the book.

While this crossover has been done, I am interested in seeing your take on this amazing game.

[TacticalRainboom]

I respect the idea and some of your characterization is good, but this is full of issues.

One: You are in dire need of proofreading. Sit down and really comb over this for technical errors like capitalization and punctuation. You've derped a lot of those things. After you've done that, have someone from ponychan look this over because I bet you anything they'll find a whole mess more nuts-and-bolts level problems.

Two: Don't make the ponies solve the puzzles. Holy crap that would be fucking boring. Play out some kind of drama on the island. I want to see the ponies playing out the drama of Atrus and his sons. I want to see the ponies working through the storyline of a game, not going through the motions of playing the game.

Three: This runs a serious risk of being a "find and replace" type fic, where it just follows the game except it adds ponies. Make the ponies part of the story; don't stick strictly to the events of the first MYST game, bring in whatever elements from MYST-canon you can and make them interact with the mane cast in interesting ways that aren't already covered by the MYST games.

Make the chapters longer as well :3 maybe sa fluttershy will force you :D

This is a fusion, not a crossover.

A true crossover would have Atrus staying a human, not Atrus being a pony now.

Crossovers are crossing one series with another, without changing the main characters of the series.
