Alicorn Away! Just Four Easy Payments of 9.95!

"You did what?!" Twilight asked. Pinkie had reluctantly filled her in, on Applejack's insistence.
"I wrote my story in that pretty planner notebook thingy you gave me! It was so nice of you to give me an organizer instead of another book, since I'm not really all that big on reading. Unless it's reading hooves, Madame Pinkie is really good at that."
"This isn't about hoof reading, Pinkie!" Twilight insisted. "That wasn't just a regular organizer, it was an enchanted organizer!"
"Come again?" Applejack asked.
"I know Pinkie sometimes has a short attention span, and gets very busy, so I crafted a spell that would make reality whatever she wrote down. If she wrote she had to fill up balloons, her balloons would be filled."
"Twilight! That's dangerous!" Fluttershy asked.
"I put limitations on it! I wasn't going to let her use it as a Death Note or anything! I very clearly explained everything in the manual, under the Terms and Conditions! Didn't you read the Terms and Conditions?"
"No..." Pinkie admitted. "There was like, fifty pages of them."
"Those are there for a reason!" Twilight scolded. "What kind of pony wouldn't read the Terms and Conditions? What kind of pony would just press onward, blindly?"
Applejack looked at the ground.
Fluttershy looked out the window.
Rainbow Dash rubbed her neck.
Pinkie bounced up and down. "Oh! Oh! Memememe! I'm that kind of pony!"
Twilight facehooved. "All of you are terrible. And I'll lecture you on it later. But for now, we need to fix this. Pinkie, get your organizer and the quill you write your stories with. It has to be that quill, very important.
"Applejack, you and Rainbow Dash get to the market and corner that alicorn. Do not let him teleport away."
"Right!" Dash said. "How do we do that?"
"Challenge him. Make him show off. If you tire him, he won't be able to teleport. Teleporting takes a lot of effort, and you two are good at competitions."
"Y'got that right," Applejack said. "Finally something ah can be useful with!"
"Fluttershy, you go tell Rarity about everything that happened. She's locked herself up in her Boutique and won't come out."
"Got it!" Fluttershy said, and scurried away.
Twilight scrunched up her face. "Let's finish this, once and for all."
