Disguise (75%)

Twilight put the top hat on her head and walked right past the meeting, easy as falling off a log. 

“Right, so if we go up to three caliber… Hey! You there!” Twilight froze as she was addressed by whoever was running the meeting. “What do you think you’re doing?” 

She turned around, slowly. Panicking slightly as she recognized Lyra Heartstrings, the guard she framed, as one of the ponies seated at the table. 

“It’s Starlight, right?” Twilight just nodded. “What are you doing here, mate?! Your wife’s just gone into labor!” Her what? “Take that escape pod behind you. It’ll take you right to the hospital.” The scarred pony smiled at Twilight’s hesitation. “Go ahead. Don’t worry, I’ll tell the chief.”

Twilight hopped into the escape pod and fired herself out of the airship. 


FAIL
Well congratulations! Happy… Mother’s Day?


Transdimensionalizer (12.5%)

Twilight teleported out of the pod and back into the airship quickly. She hoped that the pod would land itself instead of crashing, but that was out of her hooves now. She pulled out her Plan B. 




TRANSDIMENSIONALIZER
Visit alternate dimensions with the flick of a switch!
“It’s super easy to use and gives awesome results!”

-Gadget Gabe



Twilight looked at the single sliding dial skeptically. She turned on the device and… 



FAIL
Never again.


Glue (12.5%)

Twilight quickly flipped the switch back, thankfully returning to her home dimension. She turned to her last resort. She removed the cap from the bottle of glue then covered her hooves with it. Casting a quick light-weight spell on herself, she very carefully and quietly walked across the ceiling. 

“Naw, we can’t do that.” 

“Why not, man?” 

“You do realize how much a solid gold cannon would weigh, don’t ya?” 

“Dude, we totally got enough power. What do you think, man?” 

“Well, I’m still kinda new here. I’m not sure what to say.” 

And she had done it. She had snuck across without anypony noticing- Oops, guard! Better hind in this garbage chute. 

“Guh! Door’s jammed again!” Oh, well better to be safe then sorry. As Twilight fell through the chute, she suddenly broke through a weaker section of piping, falling out on top of a platform over some exposed machinery. 

“Okay, that was pretty cool. You know, for a Unicorn.” What was that supposed to mean, Scootaloo? “Oh, hey, you see that ‘records’ sign? That’s probably a good place to look, right?" Yeah, she saw the sign, on the other side of the gap filled with gears and pistons and other dangerous moving parts. "Hey, I think I’ve got some stuff that could help you get across. You know, since you can’t fly.”
