A Walk Through Everfree

CH.9 Get Pinkie to Smell the Cloth

Pinkie smiles a wide smile and leans down to sniff the cloth. She gets in quite a large whiff, and instantly perks up, she looks back at the forest and tells you to follow, while ordering Rarity and Fluttershy to stay there. Luna perks up and trots alongside Pinkie, you give a glance at the others, who look quite okay with this order, and head into the forest behind Pinkie. The forest bends with your eyes, creating a spherical dimension that's quite discombobulating. You almost go cross-eyed multiple times, but somehow manage to follow the other two through the fog and branches.

Pinkie seems downtrodden as she leads you both towards an awkward-looking light, it's flickering many colors and seems to want to swallow your soul through the grass you trot on, the branches you bump against, and the air circulating throughout your body. Once you finally reach the light, you find the source is Ponyville burning to the ground in a chaotic rage, everypony is scrambling about for dear life, or trying to lessen the flames insatiable appetite. Your first thought, of course is to rush to Ponyville's aid, but you notice Pinkie has other plans.

"Look, Twilight's house, It's fine," she whispers through her tangled mane. You look towards the direction of her gaze and see she's right, Twilight's hovel has been completely untouched by the wrath unleashed around it. That's not the only thing though, her lights are off and her door is ajar, sending the message that something has happened. Luna scoffs, and replies, "Twilight can handle herself, there's an obvious reason as to why her house is that way, the flames present the real problem here." Which is the best choice?
