Back To the Future?

1.21 JIGGAWATTS?!

Hey guys, the new chapter is here. Thanks for all your supportive feedback, I'll try to take into consideration all your advice. Now, sit back, read and enjoy I guess.




*Marty humming Power of Love*

"Hey Calvin, can you tell me about your world until we get to the Time Machine?" Said Twilight, making the cutest curiosity face ever.

"Huh? Oh yeah sure, and for the 10th time, my name is Marty, Marty McFly. Not Calvin" Marty replied to the unicorn with a frown on his face. "What do you want to know?"

"Oh yeah sorry, I keep forgetting. Anyway, who is Doc Brown?" answered the mare. Right before Marty could answer, she summoned a quill and a notebook and began writing down everything the human said.

"Well, Doctor Emmett Brown is a scientist and a good friend of mine. People often call him crazy because of his inventions, but as you can see, he is smart, I mean, he made a time machine! And out of a DeLorean!" Said McFly.

"I see... and, what is a DeLorean?" Said Twiraitu Sparkaru, with glowing eyes, ready to absorb information like a sponge.

"A DeLorean is a car, a vehicle, for transportation. And a bitchin' one for that matter" Said the human.

Twilight gasped at the language used by the human.

"Is something wrong?" Asked Marty

"Yes, we ponies do not use foul language" Said Twilight, with a bit of indignation (not quite Rarity though)

"Foul language? What did I say?" Marty asked. He couldn't remember any insulting words said previously by himself.

"What? you did not even notice? You said... the b word..." Said the purple unicorn, with a whisper.

"B word? Oh, do you mean bit- oh yeah, I'll try to keep that in mind, we humans use a lot of foul language, as you called it. It basically became part of our normal daily speech" Said Marty with an embarrassed look on his face.


A couple of minutes passed by, filled with questions and answers. Marty then was able to see the time machine, cleverly disguised as a bush.


"Oh, we are here" Remarked Marty "Here it is, the DeLorean" Finally, doesn't this mare get tired of asking? Marty then proceeded to open the door. Twilight could not take her eyes off the car, she was too excited about this.

"Wow, it's an amazing device!" Exclaimed Twilight.

"Well, as you can see" Marty said, while trying to turn on the car "the ignition broke down, and even if we managed to fix it up, I'd still need 1.21 Jiggawatts of electricity to time travel" Said Marty

"1.21 JIGGAWATTS?!" Shouted Twilight.

"Yes I know, only a bolt of lightning can generate that much, and you never know where one is going to fall"

"What do you mean with that? You'd need atleast 8 bolts of lightning to generate that much" Said Twilight.

"8?!?! It's already hard enough to get one, and we need EIGHT?!" replied Marty.

"Yeah, that's going to be tricky, but we do know where lightning hits. After all, the weather team controls the weather"

"What?"

"The weather team is a group of pegasi that take care of the weather"

"So, you mean that ponies control the storms?"

"And all the other weather phenomena"

"Woah, that's heavy duty"

Weather control... holy shit.

"That word again, Heavy... why is everything so heavy in your world. Anyway, we should probably take your time machine to my lab" Said Twilight with a serious look on her face.

"Yeah, that's probably the best thing to do right now" Replied Marty with a confused look on his human face.

I can't wait to get back home, I just hope we can fix this up.
