While investigating the magic behind the comic book that sucked them in a while ago, Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow, and Fluttershy are thrown into a high seas adventure to retrieve an artifact they are accused of stealing. All the while, Discord indulges himself into a new hobby suggested to him by Princess Celestia, reading.
This is for the TwiDash group contest, which is this one right here.
(I've retracted this from the contest, seeing I wasn't able to complete it in time, but I do still plan to finish this story)
Chapters (4)
I have no idea why some asshats downvoted this. I think there are some trolls out there that just run around downvoting new stories they haven't even really read for the lulz.
It's entertaining so far. Have an upvote.

/agreed. I want to see about getting rid of down votes
Negitive feedback without comments as to why is just trolling
Have an up vote from me

Yeah, it's a good thing for comments because you need a mechanism for preventing troll commenting. But you don't need the anonymous downvote to protect FIMFiction.net from trollfics, because personal attacks will be caught in moderation and anything else, a downvote with required reason would be much more helpful.

I couldn't agree more. Logically the only reason to leave a downvote without a reason why is so you are not attacked by people who disagree. But an anonymous comment section would solve that issue and provide the writer with feedback. Makes more sence then what we have now.

We used to have an anonymous comments system on this site a long time ago; it was removed due to constant trolling and is likely to never return.

Oh dang, how did my editor and myself manage to miss both of those. Thanks for bringing it up, I'll fix it up now.
Ay We Be Castin' Off!
Eee! And the TwiDash begins!
Capitalize and or use commas there.
I also noticed that you don't actually use commas in dialogue when you're supposed to. Use commas in dialogue like this:
I'm not gonna point out all of them but there were a lot after that.

Sorry it took quite some time to get around to doing the suggested, but unfortunately, I can't say I caught all the comma-dialogue issues. I've been writing fanfiction material for almost ten years now, and you're actually the first individual to ever bring that up to me. So I can't guarantee I'll be able to filter that tip into later chapters in full, but I do thank you for bringing that up to me.
I sense a bit of a reference in the library scene... You wouldn't happen to have ever seen the movie "The Pagemaster" would you have?

To answer your question...yes, I did happen to have seen "The Pagemaster". It was actually a personal favorite of mine as a kid. 
Apologies for the late reply.
Are you going to ship

Well, it wasn't really in the originally outlined plan, but I suppose I have more time to reconsider/alter a few things. Why do you ask? Would you like me to do that?
This is really good. Sadly, I get the feeling there won't be an update for many more months. Still, this is really good.
6204004 Sorry about the delayed reply. Yeah, unfortunately, don't get me wrong, I still have every intent on finishing this, but the drive has been rather small, so at best it won't see an update for some time. For now I'll be working on other things till I can recover the drive for this story.
6228368 the reply isn't that delayed. I usually expect about a week in between my comment and getting a reply since not everyone is on the Internet all the time. I'm glad that there might be a chapter 5.
