A Rainbow’s Saviour by Minoky (Olly b)


“I just want to die, RIGHT NOW!!!!!”


It had been a couple months since the Rainbow Factory’s dark secret on rainbow production came to light and to the attention of Celestia.

She was horrified at what was discovered, imediately assembled her best guards and flew to the factory and shut it down permanently. Everypony working there was arrested, saving a few lucky pegasi who were still in the cages in the main production room.

Amongst the arrested was a certain cyan pegasus. It was with a heavy heart Celestia had her taken, along with the rest, to Canterlot and thrown in the dungeons.


The time passed slowly for Rainbow Dash, as the other pegasi left the cells one by one, never to return, only their screams could be heard sounding their last minutes.


“How long has it been since i last saw daylight?”
Rainbow thought as she lay there recovering from her lastest beating from the guards.

“I never knew Celestia was this unkind, but i deserve whatever i get”

Rainbow Dash had been beaten, tourtured and worse everyday since her capture
.
Whenever she was at deaths door, welcoming its sweet release from the hell she’d created herself, Celestia would be summoned and she’d heal Rainbow Dash enough to keep her alive, till the next time.


Rainbow just lay there, the 'drip-drip' of the sink the only noise to break the silence in the cell. Images of what she had done or approved done to her fellow pegasi ran through her mind

“How could i do that, Why did i do that, WHY???”
She had asked herself that same question everyday.

“Why did i accept that offer, Why did i agree to the tests?”
Tears welling in her eyes

“I’m so sorry Scoots, i really am, you didnt fail me, i failed you!!”

Her cries could be heard out in the corridor, as a guard walked past, shaking his head slowly.



Seconds turned to minutes, which became hours, an eternity seemed to pass as Rainbow lay there, her eyes red and bloodshot, the fur on her face matted and filthy.

The sound of hoofsteps in the hallway snapped her from her daze and filling her with fear. She readied herself for what was to come, hoping it was just another beating.

“Oh no, here they come again” she wimpered.

She stood, got herself as far into the corner as possible, hoping she’d just melt into the wall away from this place, away from the hurt.

The hoof-steps stopped out side, a jangling of keys could be heard. She froze, the door creaked open.

“HA, look at the wretched thing” Sneered the guard as he entered the cell.

“Don't forget its my turn today” Said another as he came in.

“I know,i know” said the first as he stood aside.

The second guard strode past right up to Rainbow,

“were gonna have fun today” he sneered in her face.
He grabbed her mane and dragged her out the door, into the hallway.

Rainbow didnt struggle as she'd give up all hope of getting out of there and just went limp.

“Please let them kill me this time” she prayed as she was dragged into the depths of the dungeon.

----------14 Days before------

There was a flash, a pop, lots of smoke, then silence.

"Please have worked this time" Minoky thought as she went to open a window.

As the smoke cleared, a table in the middle of the room became visible

“YAY, it worked,it worked" She danced around the table, that used to be a spade.

“Finally, after three hard years, i can finally do it”
Minoky cheered as she spun on her hind legs, high-hoofing the air.

She’d been studing and training in the art of transformation for 3 years and finally she could do it without any explosions, disapperances, amnesia or anything else that involed a court case.

“Thank Celestia thats all over, any more cleaning up after the tests or court hearings and i’d have gone insane”
she thought as she finished her little victory dance.

She used her magic to fan the last of the smoke out the window with a piece of paper, while she tidied up the books she'd been using.


As she headed from her spellroom, a knock at the front door startled her.

“Hello, who is it?” called Minoky from upstairs.

“Mail ma’am” came the male voice from the other side.

“Just a moment” she called.

Minoky trotted down the stairs to the front door, she opened the door to see a crimson pegasus in an airmail uniform, with two saddle bags with the ‘Pega-Mail’ logos on them.

"Hi" she chirped

“Morning ma’m, got a couple letters here for ya” He said rummaging through the saddle bags.

After a couple minutes he found them and dropped them on the floor in front of her

“Thanks” Minoky said as an orange glow appeared round the letters, causing them to float up and into the house.

“Theres also a package for you too” He said as he opened the right bag, removing a book shaped package and placed it on the floor.

“please sign here” He motioned to a clipboard hung round his neck.

“Sure thing” Minoky used here magic to levitate a quill from a table inside her house and scrawled her name on the page.

“Thank you, have a good day ma’am” he said as he turned and headed down the street.

“You to” Minoky called after him.

She picked package off the floor and turned back inside, closing the door behind her with her hind leg. The letters had neatly landed on a table in the main room as Minoky caught up with them

First she opened the package.

“Good, its finally here” she chimmed as she hovered the book infront of herself.

“ ‘All You Need To Know About Everything - If Its Not In This Book Its Not Worth Knowing’ i've waited ages to finally get a copy of this”

She put the book on the table and turned to the letters. The first two were unimportant, but the hoof-written address on the third drew some interest.

“I’m sure i recognise that hoof-writting” she thought as she opended it.

She unfolded the letter and set it on the table, it read

Hiya Mino,

I hope this letter finds you well, how are you doing?, Haven't spoken in ages.
Everythings going well for me, well was till recently. A problems arrisen that i could use your help with, i cant exactly say in this letter but it concerns a friend of ours.

It would be great if you could come and lend your help, we can catch up on old times. I live in a nice little cottage on the outskirts of Ponyville, i'm sure an alicorn of your knowledge would have no trouble getting here.

I look forward to seeing you again mino.

Thanks in advance and safe travels

Your friend

Fluttershy.

“Well how about that, was just thinking about how she’s getting on” Minoky said as she folded the letter up and put it back in its envelope.

"Right, wheres that diary?"

Her horn glowed orange as she concentrated on her diary. A rustling came from up stairs and the creak of a door, then her diary came barreling down the stairs, surrounded in an orange glow.

It landed on the table in ffont of her with a thud and fell open on the current week.

"Hmm"

“I dont have any plans for the next couple months, and i was fancying a holiday, so may aswell make it a visit Fluttershy holiday”

She closed her diary and started making a check-list of things shee would need for her trip.



****Right i think i’d better give alittle background on Minoky.

Firstly Minoky is not a ‘normal’ pony, her mother StarShooter was a weather pegasus and her father Omen was a unicorn magic master. She is an Alicorn, with a difference.
Unfortunately her father died in an accident at his academy 2 weeks after she was born, so she never trully met him.
When she was old enough, strong enough to fly, she enrolled at Junior Flight Camp.
There she stayed for as long as it took Minoky to master flying, its here where she made friends with Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash.
I’ll leave the rest of her time there for another story,

Right back to where i left off*********


A couple hours of frantic list making and magic work, there was a large pile of items in the middle of the room.

"Right,thats everything.........i think" Minoky said as a box of quills, parchment and various inks landed on the pile.

She went through the kitchen and out the backdoor into the backgarden, to get her cart from the shed.

The door creaked as she opened it, disturbing a couple spiders, that chose this moment to run straight at her.

"EEEEEKKKKKK"

She screamed, imediately taking flight to avoid the scuttling horrors.

"I HATE spiders"

She hovered there as she watched them run into a nearby bush.

When she was sure they had gone, she landed and cautiously entered the shed.

"WOW, its been a while since i last used my cart" She thought, staring at dust and cobweb covered cart in the corner.

She backed out of the shed, using her magic to pull the cart out after her and stopped it in the middle of the garden.

"Right,time to give it a clean"

She aimed her horn at the cart, closed her eyes and started to mumble an incantation.
Her horn glowed orange, started to crackle, then an orange beam shot straight at the cart, enveloping it in an orange aura. It slowly lifted off the ground, as acouple spiders dropped from it and ran back to the shed. The cart started to slowly rotate this way and that way, then a small raincloud appeared above it. With a crack of thunder it dumped a load of water over the cart, washing away the dust and muck.

It slowed back down, till it was the right way up and landed with a thud and the glow dissapated. Minoky opened her eyes and looked at the cart with a wry smile.

"Good as new"

She went back into the shed and found out the rain cover for the cart. She gave the cover a shake, sending dust and spiders everywhere, one of which flew right past her ear.

Minoky shrieked again and ducked,

"That was too close"

She folded up the cover and hung it over the side of the cart.

Next she turned her attention to the task of loading it. She closed her eyes again and concentrated on the pile in the front room. The pile started to pulse with an orange glow, then slowly floated into the air. It then sorted itself into three lines of heaviest to lightest and slowly floated out throught the kitchen one by one, to the awaiting cart outside.

Ten minutes laterand everything was neatly stacked in the cart, heavy items at the bottome, light at the top and the cover secured in place.

Minoky went back inside to find a blanket and her harness. The blanket was easyas it was hung over the back of the sofa, but her harness was proving more difficult.

"Where the hell did i put that thing" She though as she rummaged through a closet

"I thought it was in here"

She gave up searching and went back to the main room, stood in the middle and concentrated on her harness.
There was a clatter from upstair, then the sound of metal on wood,then a smash.

"I bet that was another lamp" She thought as the harness came down the stairs and landed next to her.


The blanket unfolded itself, floated above her back and settled itself over her back and wings. The harness was next, it did the same, then two buckles did themselves round her belly and chest.

"I really need to replace this old thing" She though as she shook herself to get it to sit right.

"If theres a shop selling them when i get to Ponyville, i'm getting a new one"


She turned back to the table, where a map of Equestria had appeared.

“If i stick to the main roads and by-ways, by my reckoning, it should take me about seven days, unless anything happens” She mused while looking over the map.

She rolled the map up and trotted out to her cart,the map floating behind her. She lifted a corner of the cover, as the map slid in and fastened it back down.

She locked the backdoor, hitched herself to the cart and headed round the front, there she locked the front door, changed the sign on the wall to 'on holiday'

“Right Ponyville here i come” she said as she trotted off out of town.

------Rainbow Dash------

THUD

“We went easier on you this time” The guard said as he threw Rainbow into her cell.

“Celestia wants to see you soon”

He slammed the door shut, the sound of his hoof-steps getting quieter as he headed back to the guard room.

Rainbow didnt move for a few minutes, she just lay there where she’d landed, trying to summon up the strength to get back to her feet.

“What does Celestia want with me now?”
she thought as she slowly managed to drag herself to the corner she’d called home for the last couple month.

“She made it perfectly clear how dissapointed and disgusted in me she was, that she never wanted to see me or hear my name again.”

It seemed to take an eternity to get across the floor, but eventually she did.

Rainbow managed, by leaning on a wall, to get herself up onto her haunches. She sat there, staring into space, her once beautifull multi-coloured mane a tangled, bloodied mess draped over her face and side. Her tail full of knots and matted with dried blood and dirt.

"What a mess you are" She thought to herself
"The guards were right, they did go easier on me this time, didnt break anything"


Rainbow lay down on the filthy blanket under her, fore-legs crossed her head resting on them,to try to get some sleep.

Soon as she closed her eyes, to try to sleep, there was scootaloo's terrified face, staring back at her.

Her eyes snapped open,and she looked around in a panic,

"Oh Celestia" She cried

"I'm so so sorry scoots, how could i have put you through all that. I was your hero, even a mother to you!"

Rainbow started tearing up,

"Oh scoots, will you ever forgive me, will you ever trust me again?"

She opened her mouth to cry alittle, but all it brought was a few tears and made her cough up some blood.

She lay there and wept till she had no more tears.

Now she was in a right state, her mane and tail matted with blood and dirt, her cyan coat blackend and grey,
her eyes were baggy and bloodshot, the fur on her face a muddled mess of blood,dirt and tears.

She was exhausted and, welcoming the feeling of sleep overcoming her, closed her eyes,dreading the nightmares it would bring.





The sound of hoof-steps echoed through the hallway as a servent carried a tray towards Rainbow's cell.

When she was at the cell, she put the tray on the floor anf gently knocked on the door.

"Your foods here Rainbow" She said softly.

She knelt down and opened the little flap on the bottom of the door, then slowly slid the tray into the cell and closed it.

She stood back up and listened at the door, she heard nothing for a couple minutes and fearing the worst, was about knock on the door, when a noise made her stop.

She put an ear to the door,making out the sound of hoof-steps and the tray sliding on the stone floor.

"Thank Celestia your still alive" The servant thought as she headed back up the corridor.

“That was a rather interesting trip, i think i'll write it all down later"
Minoky said to herself as she reached a crossroads.

“Hmm, Ponyville....Ponyville....Aha there it is”
she said pointing her hoof at the signpost on the roadside.

“Two miles that way, shouldn't take me too long to get there”

She turned right and trotted down the dirt road, humming to herself.



Two miles and one grumbling stomach later she reached the little bridge that lead into Ponyville.

“Thank Celestia i’m here, my stomach is driving me crazy and this harness is starting to chafe”

As she crossed the bridge, she saw a bustling little town. There were many ponies, all brighlty coloured, going about their daily life.
The smell of freshly baked treats wafted past her nose on the breeze, her stomach let out a loud growl.

“That does it!” she exclamined

“Food first, place to stay next”

As she wandered round the various stalls and displays, a few ponies stopped whatever they were doing and stared at the newcomer as she passed by, afew commenting on her unique appearance.


*****At this point i’ll say why they were staring.
As i mentioned before shes an Alicorn with a difference, that difference is that she has some unique markings and colours on her body, that make her look like a tiger
*********


“I dont mind the attention, but the staring just creeps me out”
she said under her breath as she trotted round the various stalls.

‘Growl’

“OK,OK, I’m getting some food”
she said to her stomach.

She spied a small, brightly coloured stall set up near the fountain in the centre of town, selling what looked like every type of apple treat there is.

“That’ll do me”
she said as she trotted over to the stall.

The mare behind the stall saw her heading her way and gave her a friendly smile.

Minoky was right, there was every apple-based food you could think of and some she didnt know existed.

“Howdy stranger” said the orange mare

“Whats ya’ fancinin’”

“Hmm, not sure they all look good”
Minoky said as she looked over the stall.

Minoky glanced up at her, noticing her bonde maine was tied back in a big pony-tail (lol) that matched her tail, she also wore one of those stetson hats, that looked like had seen better days.

“Well we got every apple treat ya’ll can think of, fritters to pies, candied, toffee’d, ya’ll name it’ll most likely be here” Said the orange mare.

At the sound of this Minoky’s stomach let out a growl that both of them heard.
The mare behind the stall gigled, Minoky blushed slightly.

“Sounds t’me someones a might hungry”

“Sure am, I’ll take two apple fritters, a small apple and cinamon pie” She said

“And a dozen red apples too”

“No prolbem” She replied, placing the items into a bag.

“That’ll be 8 bits”

“Thanks” Minoky said as she used her magic to float the bits from her cart and into a dish on the stall.

She moved the food into her cart, except for one apple, which she started eating.

“You would’nt happen to know where Fluttershy lives round her” Minoky asked the mare, after emptying her mouth.

“Sure do, shes a good friend o’ mine” She replied

“I’ll be happy ta show ya the way, when mah’ big oaf of a brother gets back”

Minoky finished the apple before repling.

“That’d be great.......erm”

“The names Applejack”

“Minoky”

“Nice ta meetcha’” Replied Applejack, moving round the stall and shaking Minokys right hoof furiously.

“Any friend of Fluttershy is ah friend of mine, an call me AJ, everypony else does”

“Thats nice to know” Minoky said, trying to stop her hoof from shaking

“You wouldn’t happen to know of anywhere round here i can stay for a few days?”

“Theres a billboard over near that cafe just round that there corner, may be somthing on there for ya”

“Thanks, i’ll go check it” Minoky replied

“Can i leave my cart with you while i go check, just need to get this harness of as its chafing a bit”

“Sure you can sugarcube” AJ motioned to a spot next to the stall

“park it there an i’ll keep mah eye on it for ya”

“Thanks” Minoky said as she pulled the cart to the spot and used her magic to remove the harness from her back and layed it on top of the cart. Then she removed the blanket, placed that on the cart too.

She walked back to AJ while giving her wings a good stretch, causing AJ to do a double take.


“Now dont that just beat all” She said

“Heres me thinking your were just a plain unicorn, not knowing ya’ll were hiding those fancy wings and markings under ya harness”

“Yeh it does surprise a few ponies” She replied flapping her wings a couple times, then settled them back by her sides.

“My mother was a weather pegasus and my father a powerfull unicorn”

“Ya’ll get on well with Twilight” AJ said

“Shes a rather powerfull unicorn”

“I’d like to meet here sometime, but for now i’m gonna go check that billboard” Minoky said.

“I’ll be back soon”

“I’ll be right here” AJ waved as she wandered to where AJ said.

The guards were true to their words, they didn’t beat her as much as usual, on one instance she even managed to walk back to her cell and not dragged.

“Well things seem to be looking up” Rainbow thought as she lay in her favourite corner, nursing the cut on her leg.

“They didnt break anything this time, lucky me”

Her time spent here had given her time to think of all she’d done and, if ever, what she’d do if she did ever get out of here.

“I know my friends wont be anymore, if i do get out, i’m leaving Ponyville for good” She said tearfully.

“Sorry my friends, especially Twi, i never meant to hurt you”

She’d only just got the courage to let Twilight know how she felt about her and was surprised Twilight felt the same. The two weeks they’d spent together were the best of her life, but then it all went to hell when THAT factory’s secret came out.

“Why the hell did i even think of going there ever.” she cursed herself

“My life was great till then,.........”

Then Scootaloo came to mind, that was it, she started crying and for the first time in the months she'd been there, she had the strenght to, her cries could be heard through out the dungeon.

“KEEP IT DOWN IN THERE!!!!!!!” Yelled a guard who was posted at the main door into the dungeon.

“UNLESS YOU WANT ANOTHER BEATING!!!!!!!!”

Rainbow managed to subdue her crying, she actually felt alittle better to let it all out. She curled back up in her corner, the cut on her leg had stopped bleeding, but still stung and tried to get a little sleep.

-----1 Day Before-----

Minoky stirred in her sleep, her mind still working overtime trying to figure out how the hell she was going to help Fluttershy and her friends out.

A couple days after meeting AJ and sorting out a room with CarrotTop, she’d met the rest of the group.

Rarity, a rather charming sophisticated unicorn with a penchaunt for fine dress, had took a great interest in minokys colouration.

Pinkie Pie, what a handfull she is, she’d thrown a surprise ‘welcome to Ponyville’party for her, but nearly gave Minoky a heartattack when she snook up behind her and yelled ‘WELCOME TO PONYVILLE’.

Twilight Sparkle, now theres a unicorn who you wouldn’t want to annoy, abit bookish, but an absolute genius with magic.

Applejack, she’d met before, but found out she works on a farm called ‘sweet apple acres’, she convined minoky to visit there one day.

And Fluttershy, who spent most of the party chatting with Minoky, catching up on old and new times.

When Minoky brought up the name Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy tapped the side of her muzzle signalling to not talk about it.

When everpony had left, Minoky asked again and she got told the whole story about what had happend and that this was the reason Fluttershy had asked for her to come to Ponyville.



Now the whole problem was giving Minoky no help sleeping.

“Dammit, cant get to sleep. What time is it” Looking at the clock.

“four thirty, if i can’t sleep may aswell see if i can sort this problem out”

She rolled out of bed, had a shake, stretched her wings, picked up her saddle bags, then headed down to the kitchen.

“I hope i can help you Dashie, i really do” she sighed as she entered the kitchen.

She placed the bags near the door, got herself a glass of water and sat at the table, had a sip of water and put it on the table in front of her.

She sat there staring at the glass, her head in her hoofs, pondering the situation.

“Right firstly i need to see Rainbow” She made a mental check list.

“So to do that i need to speak with Twilight, to get an audience with Celestia”

She took a sip of water.

“I just hope Dashie isnt too far gone” Tearing up alittle.

“From that i can make up a plan to help her out”


She finished the water, washed the glass and put it away. As she turned to go out,
CarrotTop appeared in the doorway.

“Morning Minoky, sleepwell?”

“Wasn’t too bad”She replied

“but this problem i have to sort out kept me up most of the nite”

“Anything i can help with?” CarrotTop asked standing back for Minoky to pass.

“Thanks for the offer”Minoky replied

“But after sitting here thinking it through, i may have the solution”

“Well good luck to you, hope all works out for the best”

“Me too, me too” Minoky said as she put her saddle bags on and headed out into Ponyville.

“This is gonna be one interesting day”

------Rainbow Dash------

For the first time since being here, she’d actually managed to sleep most of the night.

A grating noise from the door awoke her.
A small flap lifted at the bottom and a tray was pushed in, then the flap shut.

Upon the tray was a bowl of water, a small bundle of hay and a couple apples.
Rainbows eyes grew wide, this was the first time she’d gotten apples in here at all.

She went over and slid the tray back to her corner, eyeing the apples lustfully but suspisiously.

Rainbow sat on her haunches best she could, ate some of the hay and had a drink, still not sure about the apples.

“Dare i try one” as she lent down and sniffed them

“They smell fine, definately from AJ’s place”

She had another drink and abit more hay,

“Oh to hell with it”
with that she took a big bite out of one of the apples and quickly chewed it. After having only hay and water since she arrived here, to say the apple was delicious was an understatement.

“Oh Celestia thats necter”
she quickly finished the rest of the apple and started on the other.

Soon everything on the tray had been devoured and she slid it back over to the door.

“I wonder who put them on there, oh well seems my lucks changing”

She went back to her corner and laid down, waiting to see what the rest of the day brought.

‘Knock, knock’

“Whos there?”

“Minoky, I’d like to have a word Twilight”

“One moment,......SPIKE....SSPPIIKKEE..”

“Yeah i heard, i’ll get the door” he grumbled as he wandered to the front door.


“Hiya Spike” Minoky said as the door opened

“Hi Minoky, Twi’s upstairs reading.........as if she does much else round here”

“SPIKE, I HEARD THAT...........”

Minoky chuckled, and entered the library. As usual books were all over the place.

“Looks like a stampede came through here” Minoky remarked

“Nah, its just Twilight, she emptied every shelf looking for a book” Spike replied

“Only to find it wasnt on any shelf, but under her bed” He started laughing.

“Ok, I’ll leave you to it” Minoky chuckled as she started upstairs.


Twilight was layed on her bed, engrossed in a rather large and rather old book. She looked up when she heard the door open.

“Hi Minoky, for what do i owe the visit?”

“I need to speak to Celestia” Minoky said, sitting on her haunches

“Seen as your her ‘star’ pupil, you think you could arrange an audience with her”

“I’ll see what i can do, let me guess its to do with a certain pegasus?”

“Bingo, i think i’ve got a soulution, but i cant do anything without seeing Celestia”

“Ok,......SPIKE......SSPPIIKKEE....”

“YEAH” came from downstairs

“Can you come here and take a letter”

Claws could be heard on the stairs as Spike made his way up. The door opened and he entered, quill and parchment at the ready.

“Ready when you are Twi”

“Right,

‘Dear Princess Celestia,

I’d like to speak to you about something important regarding somepony and theres a friend of my who wants to meet you to, i think you’ll like her as she’s an Alicorn, the same as you and Luna,

I humbly await your reply,

Your faithful student

Twilight Sparkle’

Did you get all that Spike?”

Spike re-read what he’d written.

“Perfect, send it now” said Twilight

Spike held the letter out in front of him, took a deep breath and blew on it, in an instant the letter was on its way to Canterlot.

Celestia was layed on her bed in her private chamber in Canterlot castle, chatting with her sister Luna, who was layed on a rug in front of a roaring fire.

"Luna, did you sense over the last couple days?"

"I did notice a slight change in the magical energry round Ponyville, why do you ask?"

"Just wondered as i noticed something too"


Suddenly a flash filled the room with white light accompanied by a loud 'pop', kinda like somepony popping a party popper.

Luna jumped a good two feet into the air at the sounds, causing Celestia to chuckle.

"I see your still abit jumpy" Celestia grinned.

"No matter how many times i hear or see that happen i still jump" Luna replied.

"you'll get used to it eventually" said Celestia.


She settled back down on the rug, just as the scroll materialized and dropped to the floor. Celestia levetated the scroll over to herself and unrolled it.

"Hmm another letter from Twilight" She said as she read "But she only recently sent me one"

"Whats this one about?" Luna enquired, as she watched her sister read.

"It appears she has a new friend who would like to meet me" She put the letter down
"The interesting bit is shes an alicorn too, just like us sis"

"Hmm, could she be the cause of the change in the magical energy round Ponyville?"

"Could be, could be" Celestia said "She said they'd like to talk about a certain pegasus we have here"

"You mean....."

"Yep....her"

"I thought you'd given up on her" Luna said as she stood up "you did make it pretty clear last time"

"I very nearly have, as much as it pains me. But it looks like her friends havent"

A quill and parchment appeared in front of Celestia, she wrote,

'My faithfull student Twilight,

I would very much like to meet your friend, so have made arrangements for a meet later today.
A carriage will come to collect you and your friend from the library in Ponyville in the next two hours.


I Look forward to seeing you again.

Celestia.'


There was a 'poof', as if somepony had waved a magic wand, and the letter was gone.

"This could prove to be an interesting afternoon"

"If i may, can i join you to meet this new friend of Twilights?"

"I dont see a problem" Celestia said as she put the quill on a table next to the bed.

"I'm feeling a bit hungry" said Luna trotting towards the door.

"Me too" Celestia replid getting off the bed.

"How about we both head to the dining room for something to eat?"

"Lead the way sis"

They both headed out into the elegantly decorated hallway and trotted off in the direction of the dining room.
