The next day dawned and the young ones started doing their chores instantly it all seemed like they knew what they had to do. The girls had decided to talk to the young ones today. Twilight had decided to go and talk to Night Comet. He was sitting in the library reading some books.

“Night Comet?” Twilight asked and walked in.

“Your highness.” Night Comet said and put the book down. “Everything all right?”

“Yes. I was hoping if we could talk more about you and your friends.” She said and sat down to the couch that was in the middle of the room. The room itself was small and it was full of books and beds.

“Well what do you want to know?” He asked.

“Your mother how does she know about me and the elements of harmony?” Twilight asked.

“She said that you and her are close friends and that you would someday come here.” Night comet said.

“What about you… Who are you loyal to?” Twilight asked.

“I’m loyal to her majesty Celestia and to my family.” He said.

“What about your little family. are they staying here willingly or are they being forced to stay here?” Twilight asked.

“Everyone can leave whenever they feel like their path is clear. Our mother tell us when the time is right. But you are allowed to leave whenever you want to.” Night Comet told her.

“What about you. why haven’t you left yet.” Twilight shot back.

“Our mother says that my mission here is not yet finished.” He said.

“What are you gonna do after you leave from here?” She asked.

“Well if my cutie mark is right I will be serving her majesty Celestia as an advisor.” He said and showed his cutie mark which was the royal seal of the sun sister. “Where are your friends now.” He asked.

“They went to explore this place.” She said and smiled.

“Oh… I hope they don’t cause too much trouble.” He said.

“I still have one last question.” Twilight said. “The elements of heroism?”

“Yes… as I told you they are just crystals they aren’t like the elements of harmony that are inside of you. the elements of harmony are part of you… they can’t be stolen or corrupted… but the elements of heroism can be corruptive. that’s what happened to him and that’s why he stole them. But he cannot wield them alone. you need six ponies that represent each element to make them work.” he told

“What kind of magic do they use.” Twilight asked
“It’s ancient chaos based magic bit like what Discord uses that why the elements usually corrupt their users. We used them only when we had to and still one of us fell. The elements of harmony do not have this problem since the magic in them is not chaos base or alicorn magic… it’s the magic of friendship. something that cannot be corrupted.” He said. “Anyway shall we go and look for your friends?”

“Yeah sure.”


“No the three first books were so much better than these new Daring do books!” Golden Dash said and looked at Rainbow Dash with anger.

“Oh please… those books are so much more boring than the new ones!” She said and looked at him.

“So what. The action in those books was enough and it was awesome.” He said and smiled.

“I guess your right on that one… anyways it doesn’t matter. We both love Daring do and let’s just leave it at that.” Rainbow Dash said and offered her hoof for a hoof bump.

“Yeah… I guess.” He said and gave her a hoof bump. “So what else do you do than read books egg head.” Golden Dash said and teased the older Pegasus.

“Well I’m a wonderbolt and fly in the squad one with Spitfire, Fleetfoot and Soarin.” Rainbow Dash said and smiled.

“cool… I always wanted to fly but I don’t think it’s gonna happen ever again.” He said and looked at his missing wing.

“What happened to your wing?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“I was flying after I got my cutie mark and well I got hit by a lighting and fell hundred feet to a cloud.” He said. “And even if I had two wing the wonderbolts never would let me fly with them because of my vision.”

“What’s wrong with that?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“I can only see faint patterns of the things that are around me… but I can see ponies clearly because of the magic that is inside of them.” He said to the older pegasus.

“What do you mean. you can see the magic?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Well you know… unicorns can use their magic. Pegasi use their magic in flying and earth ponies have the special connection to the ground and the nature. I can see that.” Golden Dash explained to Rainbow Dash.

“You know what Goldie. You are a pretty cool little pony.” Rainbow Dash said and ruffled his mane.

“I guess you cool too Rainbows.” He said and laughed.


“So what are you baking now?” Applejack asked.

“Pie!” The beige coloured mare twins with brown manes said.

“Ohhh… pie…” Pinkie pie said and looked at the pie.

“So you two are twins eh.” Applejack asked.

“Yeah!” They said in unison again.

“What’s your favourite recipe? Apple pie, brownies, cake, muffins…” Pinkie said but was interrupted by Applejack.

“What do you gals say if me and Pinkie help you make these apple pies?” She asked

“Oh now you don’t have to we are professionals.” Carrot said.

“But if you want to sure you can as long as you tell us your recipe.” Cookie said.

“Sure thing.” Pinkie said and looked at Applejack. She just nodded.

“We have heard a lot of good things about the Apple family pies.” Carrot said.

“You have?” Applejack asked.

“Yes. And they that the Sugar cube corner has the best cakes and muffins in the whole equestria.” Cookie said.

“Well let’s get baking then.” Applejack said and walked over to them.

“YEAH EXTREME BAKING MODE ACTIVATED!” Pinkie pie yelled in excitement.


“So Rarity… what do you think about all of this?” Futtershy asked as they looked at the young ones doing their chores.

“Well I think that is nice that a group of young ponies can live together and make sure that everyone is okay in their little family.” Rarity said and looked at Fluttershy.

“What do you think is gonna happen at the party that will be tonight?” Fluttershy asked.

“It’s going to be lovely I’m sure of it. It’s just one of their holidays… Full moon celebration… I’m sure that it will be great.” Rarity said and smiled at Fluttershy who was doubtful.

“I sure hope so.” Fulttershy said.
