Scootaloo (53.33%)

“You want my help? Heh, alright. Here, use this.” Twilight watched as a small wooden scooter with the number 4 painted on it was teleported into the airship in front of her. “Take one of my backup scooters. You’ll be able to jump that gap without any trouble.” 

Twilight was too big for the scooter, but still she kicked off, and it did carry her across the floor. But she was too heavy for any meaningful momentum or lift. So into the gap she rode. 


FAIL
Silly Twilight. Tricks are for kids!


Secret option revealed! Charles (33.33%)

Twilight teleported back up to the platform, only a little sore from the I-beam she landed on. She was about to call in a different plan of attack when she heard another voice come over the radio. 

“Hey kid! Thanks for flying for me. That chili we had for lunch was not agreeing with me.” 

“Um, who is this?” 

“Oh hey! You’re that Twilight pony they were talking about, right? I’m Charles, Helicopter pilot for the Royal Guard. You already know Scootaloo, my copilot.” 

“Pilot in training!” 

So that’s why they let a filly fly this mission. Twilight gave the pilot a quick rundown of their situation. 

“Oh yeah, that is a pickle. Hey! I know a great way to help you get across.” Twilight then heard a strange fanfare come through her earpiece, only for it to be overpowered by the sounds of a helicopter’s blades coming from the helicopter flying right at her!

Hey look! Charles is here! In this story! About ponies! Weird
 

Gravity Bubble (6.67%)

The helicopter pulled away at the last moment. 

“I don’t care how cool you think that trick is! We are not flying into the airship!” 

“Fine, we’ll try something else. Okay, we’ve got this thing that can manipulate gravity. Should be able to get you to float across.” Charles explained. “Hit it Scoots!” 

“You got it!” The sound of a button being pressed entered Twilight’s earpiece, milliseconds before her body felt like it weighed ten times what it should. Her legs gave out under her, and her face was ground into the metal floor by sheer force of gravity alone. 

“Turn it off! Turn it off!” She yelled, not caring if anyone heard her except for the two children in the helicopter. 


FAIL
So wait… does ‘Up’ increase gravity or does it lift you up into the air?


Robo Helper (6.67%)

To her relief the bubble of heightened gravity around her vanished as quickly as it came. 

“Alright, here it comes.” The glass of the window was shattered as a metal cube was thrown through it. The cube unfolded into a robot fox with a helicopter tail. Twilight grabbed onto the metal bar between its ‘paws’ and let the robot carry her across the gap. 

With that finally done she came to a raised door with a Toppat mook trying to open it with their keycard. 

“I don’t think that guy knows how to open the door. Why don’t you let us handle this.” Charles said confidently. 

Twilight really didn’t think that was a good idea.
