//------------------------------// // 22:00-22:30 "Gabby Gums Redux" // Story: Ponies All Day-Writing Challenge // by ThunderTempest //------------------------------// Twilight Sparkle: Princess or Phony? Twilight Sparkle, long time resident of Golden Oaks Library and magic enthusiast, recently managed to not only cast an incomplete spell without the proper safety precautions, but the after effects of the spell had profound consequences for the mare’s five friends, switching their cutie marks and memories around. She was spotted several times running around the town, attempting to fix the disastrous results of the miscast and incomplete spell. While all the ponies involved were eventually set right once more, thanks to the efforts of Twilight, it is what happened afterwards that draws this reporter’s concern. After fixing the spell, Twilight was somehow made into an alicorn like Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, and Princess Celestia soon appeared afterwards, declaring that Twilight was now a Princess herself. But is this really what the Ponies of equestrian need? A princess who would put her own subjects at risk, just to test a spell, without their consent or any warning of any kind? Has Twilight Sparkle somehow ascended herself into an alicorn, rather than Princess celestia Doing it? Did she dig up a purple pegasus, and attach the wings to her back? Nopony knows, and nopony ever gets into Twilight’s secret lab basement to find out. But whatever the case may be on how she got her wings, the ponies of equestria have to wonder if we are ready for another princess so soon. Although Princess Luna is slowly gaining popularity thanks to her involvement in Nightmare Nights around the country, are we ready for three Princesses, and will Twilight let the power get to her? We can only hope that Twilight proves more responsible than some of her past actions here in Ponyville had displayed. Signing off, Gabby Gums.
