Twilight had galloped until she couldn't hear the chaos from Pony Ville. She panted, as she began walking slower trying to catch her breath. She was no longer on a dirt road anymore, nor was she in a forest area. The dirt road had stopped at a point and had become part of the ground, an unpaved dirt path. The trees population had thinned in this area, and Twilight noticed that it had began to feel warmer. This meant that she going the right way.
Twilight was traveling south, however, traveling south from Pony Ville would have taken her to the Everfree Forest. To avoid this Twilight took a dirt road that would go around the forest and instead take her to the San Palomino Desert. The less vegetation there were, the closer Twilight was to the desert.
As Twilight caught her breath, she saw a sign posted in the distance. As she continued walking, the sign came to view making the words readable.
"San Palomino Desert, thirty miles straight. Los Pegasus, one hundred miles west" Twilight read aloud. Twilight sighed as she walked past the sign. "Thirty miles . . . wonder how long that'll take me. Maybe if I had wings this would be easier, jeez I wish I was a pegasus" Twilight complained. As Twilight walked, an idea popped into her head. "Or, maybe it isn't bad being a unicorn!"
Twilight walked up to a nearby tree, the smallest she could find. Using her magic, Twilight formed a purple saw blade from her energy then proceeded to saw the base of the tree. Once she had sown through, she stepped out of the way and allowed the tree to fall to its side.
"If I can't travel with wings, I'll just have to travel with magic!" Twilight exclaimed, as she repeated the process of cutting another tree. Twilight levitated and placed the two trees on top of the path. Using the magic saw, Twilight sawed off the top and bottom of the trees, leaving the trees flat on both ends. She then sawed one of the trees in half vertically. Place the tree halves aside Twilight used her magic to measure the other tree and burn four marks into its bark. She then sawed at the marks of the tree. Once finished, Twilight had four large wooded circles. Twilight then used her magic to conjure a hammer, a drill, and a carving knife. Twilight used the saw to cut two thin wooden strips from of the tree halves. She then used the carving knife to shape the strips into smooth wooden poles. Once after, she measured the widths of the poles and burned her measurements into the center of the wooden circles. It took a couple of try's for Twilight to get the poles to slide through the circles perfectly. Now she needed a way for the circles to stay in place. using the carving knife, Twilight carved spirals into the poles. She then sawed out four small blocks of wood from the tree half and used the carving knife to shape the blocks into wooden bolts. It took over half an hour before Twilight was able to fit the bolts on the poles properly. She now had four wooden wheels, now she had to build the body for her wooden transportation. Twilight took the untouched tree half and sawed of the round end. With both ends flat, she drilled to holes to each end of the wooden board, big enough for the poles to slide through. Once that was finished, she made her magic tools disappear and wiped the sweat from her brow. She took a step back to admire her work.
It was a very crude piece of work, but Twilight had spent to much time already building her transportation. To Twilight it really was just a block of wood with wheels sticking out, but if it could help her travel faster then she was willing to take it.
Once she had hoped on top of her creation, Twilight used her magic to surround the wheels in a purple aura, making the wheels spin. She hadn't intended for her transportation to move as fast as it did. It had moved so fast that she fell off. She got to her hoofs and dusted herself off. As she did so she could suddenly hear the screams and laughter in the distance again.
"Seriously! How fast is Discords magic traveling?". Twilight ran and hoped on top of her transportation and surrounded the wheels in her purple aura. This time she had her hoofs gripped onto the front of the transportation. 'Hopefully this is faster' Twilight thought to herself as she began spinning the wheels. Her transportation immediately bolted forward, leaving a dust trail behind. Twilight concentrated both physically and mentally to prevent herself from falling off and making sure her transportation moves straight.
Twilight's mane and tail blew back as the speed of her transportation made the wind clash against her.
"Note to self! Make seat belts!" Twilight shouted, as she gripped tighter to the front of her transportation.
Twilight didn't know how fast she was going, but no matter how fast it was she knew that the danger was far behind her.
