Receiving a message from the future, Twilight Sparkle learns the world will end in 1000 seconds. Is that enough time to save the world?

The secret to surviving the end of the world? An enormous 'economy size' jelly jar, big enough for a pony to hide inside. And don't forget to poke some air holes in the lid!

This story might be an entry in any of the following:

The Equestrian Postal Service used to be MUCH more dangerous.

Pia-Sama's art can be found on deviantart and on derpibooru.org, and as Sparityqueen on pixiv.net, and maybe other places too, but I can't link the original picture directly from here because it isn't SFW.)

One day, Twilight Sparkle wakes up to the realization that she's in a religious cult, and Princess Celestia doesn't really raise the sun.

Fiction about science counts as 'science fiction,' right?
Probably an entry in Science Fiction Writing Contest (Mk III).
