Reshiram scanned Ponyville, looking for Derpy. She was looking up into the sky for her when she bumped into somepony.

"Sorry." she said.

"Don't apologize." said the pony. Reshiram looked at the pony, and it turned out it was Derpy's friend the Doctor.

"Hello, Reshiram." he said in his strange accent.

"Hi, Doctor. Have you seen Derpy?" Reshiram asked.

"Funny, I was going to ask you the same thing!" the Doctor said.

"Okay...." Reshiram replied. The Doctor was being a tiny bit strange again. "Maybe we can look together, I have something to give her."

"Right then! Allons-y!" the Doctor replied. He trotted away.

As soon as he left, Derpy landed where he was standing. Dinky was on her back. "Hey, Reshiram!" the Unicorn filly greeted.

"Hi Dinky. Here's your muffin, Derpy." Reshiram said. Derpy took the bag and grinned.

"Oh, there you are, Derpy!" the Doctor said. "Ready to go to Manehattan?"

"Yep!" Derpy replied. "Bye Reshiram!"

"Have fun!" Reshiram said. She watched the three ponies trot away toward that strange blue box. After they went inside, the box disappeared, making a strange but beautiful sound as it did. Reshiram's eyes widened. "What in the world of Giratina....?" 



"Thanks for coming along to help with my animals, Reshiram." Fluttershy said.

"No problem, Fluttershy." Reshiram replied. "We're still going to the spa after this, right?"

"Of course!" Fluttershy answered while holding open the door to her cottage. All of Fluttershy's animals rushed to the door to greet her and Reshiram. "Here are the carrots for the bunnies." Fluttershy said, hoofing over a brown sack. Reshiram levitated the sack off the ground and began distributing the carrots out between each of Fluttershy's rabbits. The bunnies gave Reshiram the cutest and happiest face when they received their treat. The white Alicorn smiled at them. She fed the rest of Fluttershy's animals while the yellow Pegasus tidied everything up.

The two ponies were finishing up when something scary happened: a scream came from outside!

"What was that?" Reshiram asked.

"What was what?" Fluttershy questioned. She was thoroughly perplexed.

"Did you not hear that scream?" Reshiram asked.

Fluttershy shook her head. Reshiram thought the yellow Pegasus thought that she was going crazy.

"I'm going to go investigate." Reshiram said. "It sounded like it came from the forest."

"Y-you mean the E-everfree Forest?" Fluttershy stammered.

Reshiram trotted out the door just as Fluttershy said, "Be careful!!" 



The white Alicorn galloped straight into the heart of the forest. The trees rushed by as she raced toward the source of the sound. Reshiram was really worried because the scream sounded like a foal's cry. It was also scary because this whole rushing into the forest thing was just like her dream. Reshiram rushed past the hut that belonged to a Zebra called Zecora and found herself in a particularly dark area of the forest. She heard the howls from Timberwolves and saw a Parasprite or two. 

She galloped for what felt like ages and grew exhausted. But just when she was about to collapse onto the ground, she found what she was looking for. The origin of the sound. It shocked Reshiram, and it was going to change her life forever. Little did she know that not only would it change her life, but it would change everypony's lives and could change the fate of Equestria itself.
