Chapter 7: Test of Fate

Mean while in passage 2, Twilight, Flutter shy, and Applejack followed the dark and twisting tunnel into a room that looked sort of like a classroom. As they entered, the tunnel behind them closed with a boom as the voice filled the cavern. " Welcome to class everyone, today's lesson, Impending doom! In this challenge, one of you will take a test. There will be a total of three questions. If you answer each one correctly, you are free.

If you answer them wrong, lets just say it won't be a happy ending." With a laugh, the voice faded away. Twilight stepped forward, volunteering to take on the challenge. As she stopped in front of the black board, the first question appeared. What instrument can you hear, but can't see and can't touch? " Hmm, Twilight thought, this one is tricky." "Aha!" Twilight then levitated the chalk and wrote your voice on the board. The question and answer disappeared to be replaced with a green check mark, which them moved to the side of the board. The next question appeared on the board. What can you put in a wooden box to make it lighter?

Twilight thought again then wrote holes on the board. Again, a green check mark appeared on the side and the last question appeared. What is so delicate that it breaks when you say its name? Twilight frowned. This was a really tricky question. She thought then wrote down the heart. But that was wrong. Suddenly the floor began to slide away and lava was revealed to be underneath. If she didn't get this question right, they'd all be barbeque!

She thought long and hard and then she had it. She wrote silence after erasing the old answer and a third check mark appeared. The floor returned to normal and another entrance opened up. Twilight sighed in relief and they all walked into the tunnel, vanishing from sight.
