Dear Mom,
You will not believe what happened tonight! You know how in the last letter I was all like, “I’m gonna start my own flying team and all and show up Dash!” Well, it may actually happen! Okay, let me calm down and tell you what happened: Trixie and I were performing our show and afterwards a bat-pony came up to us. Turns out he’s from the royal night guard and he was one of the captains! He said Princess Luna, that’s right THE PRINCESS, was looking for some talented ponies to put together two teams: a team which showed off their magic skills and a flying team.
Let me tell you, I shook that ponies hoof almost immediately but Trixie seemed a little hesitant. She said and I quote, “The Great and Powerful Trixie is not too sure if she should spend her time entertaining for only one pony.” But once the guard said she would be performing for the galas, she was hooked, but Trixie was listing rule after rule of what she wouldn’t put up with. That mare is so crazy, telling one of the captains of the royal guard that she wants her own room and not to mention specialty soaps delivered to her bathroom every Thursday or she refuses to perform. He just rolled his eyes and laughed along with me. Although, Trixie didn’t think it was very funny.
The guy at the bar wasn’t too happy on us walking out almost immediately, but he lightened up once the guard gave him a look or two. He gave us our wages and now we’re on our way to Canterlot! All three of us ponies and Trixie’s huge cart. Wish us luck!
Your super duper excited daughter,
Lightning Dust
P.S. Here’s a picture of all of us!
