Celestia told Dipper. "He's turned Equestria into a chaos target." "Well, is there anyway to stop him?" Dipper asked. "In fact, there is." Celestia answered. "Your hair tastes like cotton candy." Mabel was on Celestia's back chewing on her hair. She lit her horn and used her magic to levitate Mabel off her back. "Their called the Elements of Harmony. They have amazing power and they can defeat Discord." Celestia said. "Dipper." Mabel whispered. "I've just been touched by magical pony magic. Do you think I have magical pony powers?" "Mabel, don't be ridiculous." Dipper rolled his eyes. "We only have five elements. One is missing." Luna said. "Do you have any recourses about the Elements of Harmony?" Celestia asked. "Not really, but I might have something else." Dipper answered. "But we have to get out of these tunnels first." "No problem." Celestia said. She crouched down. "Get on my back." Dipper put his hands on the warm white coat of the alicorn. He pushed himself up and swung his leg around the other side of her back. She sat up and spread her wings Mabel got on Luna's back and Luna spread her wings. Celestia flapped her wings a few times then burst through the tunnel above them. She flew so fast, it caught Dipper by surprise. It got dark as they sped through the tunnels. Dipper saw sunlight as they approached the entrance of the cave. Celestia curved her wings and they twisted through the entrance. She curved through the air and into the sky. She flew straight up, pressed her wings against her back and slowly turned as she flew through the air like a rocket. Dipper looked below him and saw Luna doing the same thing. Celestia started to turn faster and the pressure became stronger. Dipper pressed his head against her neck so he didn't lift his head to much and fall off. The faster she flew, the harder Dipper pressed his head against her neck. The wind made Dipper's hair go wild. He shut his eyes tight as the pressure got stronger. Suddenly he decided to opened his eyes. He saw Celestia quickly open her wings and the pressure changed. Then the only pressure there was, was the breeze brushing against his face. Celestia leveled her wings to angle herself above the pink, fluffy clouds. The sounds of speeding up to the sky that blared in his ears while going up had disappeared completely. Celestia angled her wings differently and she flew gently above the beautiful clouds. Dipper released his head from her neck and lifted it to take in the view. The gentle wind carefully pressed against his face. Celestia got lower to the clouds. It was close enough for Dipper to retch his arm out and feel the soft clouds. She curved up a little bit more. Luna sped up beside Celestia. "Luna, to freedom!" Dipper heard Mabel say. She was balancing on her back. Dipper laughed a bit. This was the most amazing thing he's done in a long time. He slipped his feet in a good position and pushed himself up so he could also stand. He felt the breeze stronger against his face. It was like a dream experiencing something like this. Dipper threw his arms up in the air. "Woo-hoo!" He shouted. "Alright!" Celestia and Luna turned to each other and smiled. They lowered out from the clouds. Dipper could see a river below. Celestia lowered down right next to it. Dipper could see his reflection. Celestia curved up again. "To the Mystery Shack!" Dipper shouted. They passed a few clouds and Dipper spotted a familiar building below. Celestia flew toward it and slowed down. She swung her legs forward, flapped a few times, then landed. Luna landed behind her. Celestia crouched down to let Dipper off her back. He hopped off and stepped onto the ground. "Here it is, the Mystery Shack." Dipper told Celestia. ~~~~ "Here's the book I've been talking about." Dipper said. "It has everything you need to know about everything that's going on in Gravity Falls." " This might be what we need," Celestia said levitating the book. "Thank you, Dipper." Dipper blushed. She flipped through the pages trying to find anything about the Elements of Harmony. She looked closely at the pages as she flipped. Then finally, at the end of the book, she stopped and read. "The Elements of Harmony: Amazing, powerful objects that are used for good. Five of them are known, Loyalty, Kindness, Honesty, Generosity, and Laughter. The final is a complete mystery." Dipper froze. "Where could it be?" He asked. "We don't know, but we will find it." Celestia answered. "Time is running out. We need to go, sister." Luna said, looking out the window. Celestia took a deep breath. "We don't have much time." She turned to Dipper and Mabel. "Will you two help us?" Dipper was very surprized. "Would we?" Mabel squealed. "Let's go, Dipper! Luna, to freedom!" She got on Luna's back. "Would you stop saying that?" Luna said, opening the window. She flew out. Dipper took a deep breath and climbed on Celestia's back. She, too, flew out the window.
