Chapter 2: Twilight's Mechanical House

Rainbow watch as the guests is cheering for the cartoon's end. The pony shakes her while looking for someone to scare off. Just then, the mare spots an Ursa Minor coming into the place.

"Finally, somepony to scare and a baby Ursa Minor at that," Rainbow exclaims eagerly. She flew in front of the Ursa Minor and lands in front of him, making a scary face, "BOO!"

The Ursa Minor of course roars at Rainbow, causing the pony to scream and fly off. Perhaps it wasn't a good idea to try to scare this big guy.

Back on stage, Twilight introduces the next cartoon, "Nightmare Night treats can be really spooky like mechanical houses that act kind of kooky. So, sit back, relax, and let's take a lookie."

The audience cheers as the next cartoon plays.

------------------

Twilight's Mechanical House

"In a humble little house that needed some paint
Lived a tired Twilight Sparkle trying to sleep, but she cain't."

Of course, we see Twilight trying to sleep in her bed but couldn't due to some problems in her library home. It makes her look up at the ceiling in frustration.

"You see the problems were plenty in this house she had.
The roof always creaked and the drafts; they were bad.
The furnace turned on with a clatter and clunk,
making pipes splutter, steam, rattle and plunk.
With a slap and a bang the shutters did slam.
This noise it continued and nauseam."

Twilight groans as she tries to sleep but couldn't thanks to the noises being made. This is getting frustrating for her.

"She rolled and she tossed under her pillows and sheets.
Poor Twilight wishing the sounds they would cease."

Twilight groans in anger, she has had enough. The unicorn groans, "I can't take this racket another night longer. I thought I could but I couldn't be wronger."

"She threw off her blankets and slunk to the sink."

"Perhaps I'll feel better after a drink." Twilight mumbles as she goes downstairs to get some water from the kitchen sink, using a cup to do so.

"But the water came out in a way unexpected.
It sprayed from the drain in her face misdirected."

As Twilight turn the faucet on, the unicorn yelps as water sprays in her face like mad. She frowns and turns the sink off. Now Twilight has really had enough of this!

"She wiped off her mug in an angry defeat."

"That's the last straw! My decision's complete. I'm fed up with the clanking, ker-slamming, and squeaking. The whistling and knocking and the roof always creaking," Twilight exclaims angrily. That tears it. She is moving out of the library, even if the princess has assigned her here. The mare cannot stand it any longer.

"Poor Twilight Sparkle was irked; a bit peeved you might say.
Her mind was made up that she must move away.
So she gathered her things and emptied each drawer.
The last thing she did was lock the door."

Twilight goes to the drawers and opens them as she begins putting her stuff and such into drawers. Spike and Nyx helps pack their own things, wishing that they shouldn't have to move.

Once the packing's done, Twilight walk out the door and locks it up. The two looks concerned with their own suitcases as it's time to find a new home.

"Then Spike, Nyx and she marched up to the next street
Where new houses stood all spiffy and neat.
She found a nice dwelling that drew her attention
With automatic devices of the latest invention."

Sure enough, as the trio looks at the houses, glancing at each one that's for sure, Twilight spots something that caught her interest: some sort of mechanical house. A sales pony came up with a smile to the unicorn, ready to talk sale and business.

"This house is electric."

"Said the sales pony with pride."

"If you push this red button you'll travel inside."

Twilight grins as the sales pony pull out a remote control with a red button. May as well give it a try; the purple unicorn push the button; suddenly the sidewalk that the group are on moves as they arrive at the house's entrance.

The sales pony pushes another button on the remote. Spike and Nyx takes a peek as the house begins to get a makeover of sorts for its new owners.

"With a flick of a switch and the pull of a lever the house it transformed."

"This is really quite clever." Nyx said as Twilight smiles impressed. Spike nods a bit.

A while later, the sales pony shows Twilight how to work the remote control, explaining how it works to the mare.

"The designs egronomic for comfort, you see."

"Grinned the sales pony as he pushed buttons one, two, and three."

Twilight and Nyx looks surprised as the couch that they were on folded over, sending them into the next room. Twilight exclaims impressed, "The furniture folds right into the wall!"

"It makes a great shortcut into the hall!" The sales pony explains to Twilight and Nyx as he and Spike peeks around the side to see the two sitting sideways in the hall.

--------------

We see Twilight glancing into the kitchen while she and the sales pony put some shades on. The mare said, "This kitchen is sparkling."

"It's synthetic steel. There's even a robot that can cook you a meal." The sales pony said, pushing a button to bring forth a robot that begins cooking up meals in the kitchen. As the two kept walking, Twilight felt like asking some more questions.

"But how will the floors here all stay so clean?"

"Should dust ever settle; there's a vacuum machine."

Sure enough, as the two sat upside down on the couch, the vacuum machine passed by. Twilight then ask the sales pony, "Are there shutters that bang, slap, rattle or slam?"

"Not at one, not a bit,, not at all my good woman!" The sales pony insists. Twilight stood up right, smiling eagerly. This place is perfect!

"I'll take this new house!"

"Said Twilight Sparkle with zeal; after escrow and closing, the contract was sealed."

"This new fangled house is now where I'll stay." Twilight said, shaking the sales pony by the hoof. Then the mare pushes a button, sending him away.

"She then thanked the sales pony and sent him away.
So Twilight Sparkle, settled back in her modern recliner with buttons galore."

"Ah what could be finer?" Twilight ask with a smile. As Nyx got on her lap, the mare pushes some more buttons while the two relax. This sounds like a perfect home from now on!

"Whatever she wanted was hers right away.
With a touch of a button, she got a snack tray.
Her chair it reclined, and rubbed her back.
So then came on some music and dimmed the lights low."

Twilight is relaxing as she and Nyx sighs a bit. The ponies yawned, they are a little tired.

"Said Twilight Sparkle with a yawn as she scratched on her head."

"Oh, it's time for a bath and then we'll toddle to bed." Twilight said to Nyx, both a bit a sleepy.

"She pressed the red button and rolled across the floor.
Her and Nyx's chair went upstairs through the new bathroom door.
With a splash and a splunk the brushes did clean."

"What a wonderful thing this bathing machine," Nyx said, smiling at the bathroom as she and Twilight rode the chair through the bathing machine.

"Special arms then conveyed them off to their new beds.
And tucked them in gently, then a story was read.
Twilight and Nyx were cozy, all snuggled up tight."

Twilight smiles as the arms pat her on the head. The mare begins to do some sleeping as Nyx sleeps in her new bed. But of course, Twilight woke up, a while later while looking excitedly.

"But Twilight tossed and she turned as her thoughts did excite
Of buttons and switches of moveable stairs;
Computer controls on reclining chairs."

"There's so many things in this house with to play. I want to stay up. I'll just sleep in the day." Twilight said eagerly. The pony got out of her bed and woke up Nyx, telling her the plan. The two heads to the door, ready to have some more fun.

"She and Nyx leapt from their covers and slid past the clock.
Twilight flung the door opened; but discovered it was blocked."

As Twilight uses her magic to open the door, she and Nyx are surprised as the robot is outside, blocking. It's obvious programmed to make sure that his new owners don't stay up all night and go to sleep until morning.

"There stood the robot. Its finger it wagged.
Before the two knew it, by the seat they were grabbed."

"This just isn't right. We don't need a rest!" Nyx protests as the robot tossed her and Twilight back into bed.

"I want to get up. Stop being a pest." Twilight demands to the robot in annoyance. She's the owner, the thing is supposed to listen to her!

The robot, having tucked Nyx in, prepares to do the same thing for Twilight but saw that she disappeared. He turns around just in time to see the mare and Nyx trying to sneak away.

"Twilight and Nyx scampered away heading straight for the door.
But the robot was fast and stopped them once more."

"Bedtime is fine but this is my house!" Twilight protests as she and Nyx fight with the robot as he put both back into the mare's bed. "You're making me angry, don't cheese me off, you louse!"

Twilight quickly uses her magic to get herself and Nyx away from the robot. The two rush to the window that goes outside. That robot has gone crazy!

"So they turned and they climbed out of the open window
And snuck away quietly on tippy tiptoe
But little did Twilight and Nyx think that out in the back
The robot was waiting for another attack!"

Twilight and Nyx snuck around the back to sneak back in to avoid the robot. But the attacked grabs them both, stuffing them in a magic-proof bag before beginning to lock them up tight.

"Enough is enough! I'll take this no more!" Twilight exclaims as she got herself and Nyx freed from their prison. "If you want to play rough get ready for war!"

Nyx head butts the robot then she and Twilight runs away from him.

----------------

Twilight and Nyx has a plan to take down the robot and do whatever they pleased. With Spike's help, the trio put a water bucket on top of the door in a room.

Twilight chuckles, "A chuckle of water, that's just the right thing! When the robot comes in, I'll use magic on this thing."

"Twilight Sparkle readied her plan with her own little trap.
The robot came in and then with a snap
The bucket tipped over and the water came out."

We see that the robot is following the signs that Spike and Nyx put up to lure him to them and Twilight. As the robot goes into the room, Twilight uses her magic to knock the bucket onto the thing. Of course, something goes wrong as the robot, along with the house, begins to act strange.

"It splashed, and soaked him completely throughout.
He sparked, and he fixxed that man made of steel.
He jolted and volted and began to unreel.
Electricity surged in the house all about
Zapping the circuits and shortening them out."

The trio looks around in horror. Perhaps they shouldn't have short-circuited the robot; suddenly the fridge pens up, sending food right at Twilight.

"Food from the fridge was flung in the air.
It splattered and spatted in the poor pony's mane hair.
She ducked and she ducked, but she could not escape.
The jelly that hit her was cherry, not grape."

Twilight prepares to run off but the chair came in and grabs her, pulling the mare right into the bathroom.

"Back into the bath she was dragged very quick
And repeatedly scrubbed with a soap on a stick."

Twilight yelps as the mechanical hands scrubbed her like mad before she finally uses her magic to escape.

"All sudsy and wet, Twilight Sparkle tried to flee
But the vacuum was now on a housekeeping spree.
The hoses they swung, the flailed and they sucked.
The brushed whooshed past, forcing Twilight to duck."

Twilight ran off with Nyx as the vacuum begins sucking up stuff like mad. The two grabs onto a lamp to avoid getting sucked in.

"Twilight and Nyx grabbed up a lamp and began to fight back
But right at that moment the recliner attacked."

Twilight and Nyx do their best to fight off the vacuum, only for the recliner to grab them both. This place has gone mad!

"When things looked their bleakest and all hope seems lost.
Twilight picked up a chair and gave it a toss.
It hit the controls and smashed them to bits."

The chair fell right onto the remote control, destroying it.

"The buttons they flashed and flickered in fits.
Twilight saw her chance to get safety away."

Twilight grabs Nyx as they rode on their suitcases right out the opening/closing door. Spike was ready as he grabs his own suitcase to make a getaway from this insane house.

"She snatched up her daughter and her dragon and then she did say..."

"This place is a monster, not what I'd call home." Twilight said to Nyx and Spike who nods in agreement.

"They watched that new house shake, splutter and groan.
It fell with a crash in less than a minute.
Nyx turned to her family and said."

"Glad we weren't in it." Nyx said to Twilight and Spike while the two watch the remains of the house. The trio sighs as they head on. Twilight's group has escaped that madness...but where would they stay now?

"Dejected and sad they all strode away.
Twilight Sparkle, Nyx and Spike with nowhere to stay.
The rays of the morning added sunlight
Greeting Twilight Sparkle with a warm, friendly sight."

The sun rose up as Twilight looks up and gasps for right in front of her, Nyx and Spike is the old library home, obviously no one sold it or Celestia didn't get a new librarian yet. It's like it was waiting for them to return.

"A little wood library house that needed some paint.
It wasn't quite perfect but still, it was great."

Twilight glances at the house and smiles while Spike and Nyx looks on with smiles. They are coming back to their real home.

"You know, we could stay here for just a little while."

"Said Twilight to Nyx and Spike with a wry little smile.
Later that night all warm in her bed,
Twilight Sparkle snuggled up as sleep came to her head.
The furnace it clanked; it rattled and shocked.
The shutters flew back. They slammed and knocked.
The wind it did whistle round the chimney it moaned.
But Twilight Sparkle didn't stir because she knew she was home."

THE END
