Let's travel to the FUTURE!

[TheHybrid]

(An idea I had, not sure how it will pan out, but it should be interesting. Also, this does not tie into the other RP I have going in a different thread)

A light brownish orange stallion sits in his basement, working on a rather large and complex looking contraption. He seems to be putting the finishing touches on it, screwing a few things in, tightening a few bolts up, polishing some gears, etc. He had been working on this device for several years with his friend, Scrap... who unfortunantly had to return to Appaloosa because of a family emergency, and so could not witness it's completion. He tightened up one more bolt on the device, and backed away, smiling wide "Finally... after all these years... it's done..." he mutters out with his unique southern draw, "Now... Ah gotta fuel 'er up... then Ah think I'll take 'er for a bit of a test run..." he picks up a large vial of a glowing pink liquid, and pours it into a hole on the device, then does this with at least five other vials. He chuckles, "If ah was a unicorn, powerin' this thing would be as easy as pie! But this'll hafta do..." he plugs up the fuel intake, and trots into the machine. The outside of the machine appeared to be a large, metallic, cylinder shaped object litered with gears and cogs and pistons... and the inside looked very similar, except for the large control panel in it.

He pulls a leaver, which causes the machine to sputter, and cause the machine to start vibrating lightly. A whiring sound began to chime in, as the gears and cogs and pistons outside began to work, slowly at first, but soon began to pick up speed rapidly. The vibrations and the whirring become louder and more violent, the lights on the control panel flickering on, and number dials spin until they all reached zero (the number dials... imagine the spinning thing in slot machines, except it has numbers on them instead of pictures). Finally, the vibrations and sounds hit their climax as they abruptly die down, now becoming a steady hum. He grinned, "Everything seems to be in order... now to see if this time machine can really travel through time!" he sets one dial to the current date, then another to "5,000" then another to ''Years" then a final one to "Future".

He grins, then pulls down a lever... and is quickly knocked out as the machine lurches upwards, causing him to hit his head on the control panel. The door to the machine closes, and it is quickly enveloped in a white-ball of energy as it floats up into the air. The ball of energy collapses onto the machine, and sends it into the time stream, where it travels to 5,000 years in the future. But... instead of landing nicely... it crash lands... damaging the ship greatly (sorry for rushing, just trying to get this out of the way).

The stallion wakes up, his vision swimming into focus as he hear warning lights blaring, and sparks flying everywhere. He weakly pulls himself up, groaning as he pulls a lever to turn off the machine "Well... that could of gone better..." he notices how damaged it was and sighs, "Might be here for a while..." he gently taps the door, which just falls off flat into the ground. He takes a step out and looks around, "Oh... wow. THis is.... interesting." he

was facing a giant sign, or well, screen sign that said "Welcome to New Ponyville!" and in the distance, he could see a collosal city with very large metallic and glass buildings. "This... should be... intrestin'..."

((This is where you guys jump in, of course you'd be future ponies ))
