So Dazzlings became friends with mane six after the battle of bands.
Dazzlings apologized for their actions to the mane six and whole school. It was slow process but, eventually they got their second chance. Mane six forgave them first and when time past the rest of the school forgave.

Friendship games, went south. It was not what they expected, even the Crystal Prep didn't expect it. But it ended well and it brought them a new friend.

And now they are going to camping to Camp Everfree.
What will happen.


Bus was leaving in five minutes and Twilight had to run if she wanted to get with others.

"Twilight hurry up!" Sunset yelled as she was standing between the bus doors.

Twilight ran as fast as she could and the last moment she jumped and reached to Sunset's hands.
Sunset pulled Twilight into bus as the doors closed.

"I'm sorry I overslept. I'ts not like me." Twilight said.

"Yeah no worries, more important was that you made it." Sunset said and hugged Twilight.

"Bus is leaving, I suggest you two to get to your seats." Bus driver said and started the engine.

Twilight and Sunset walked through the bus, but there were no free seats left. Bus was full of students, it wasn't unexpected. Everyone were looking toward this trip. Sunset asked for her friends that do they here have any free seats.

"Yeah, at the back. There's two seats." Rainbow Dash answered for Sunset and pointed at the back of the bus.

So, Twilight and Sunset walked to rear of the bus and noticed there two free seats. There's five seats in the back and three of them had been reserved already. There was blue haired girl sitting on the right side at the seat next to window.
Then there was orange haired girl sitting next to the blue haired girl. She seemed really tired. And at the middle sat purple haired girl with twin pig tails, she had headphones on her head and seemed to listen music.

"Why haven't no one took these seats?" Twilight asked. "I mean its either back or front seats that are the most wanted."

"Maybe, it's because of them." Sunset said and pointed the Dazzlings.

"What's wrong with them?"

"There is nothing wrong about them, but I just think it's because no one doesn't know how to approach them. Even thou everyone had forgiven the battle of the bands." Sunsets said.

"Ahaa, I see. Anyways let's sit. I don't mind." Twilight said and sat to window side. Sunset sat next to her, but she was also next to Aria.

Aria were listening music and Sonata were watching out of window scenery hymning something quietly.
Adagio on the other hand didn't share the same enthusiasm, she kept hands on her face and looked like she would rip her face off. Sunset tried to start a conversation.

"Adagio?" She asked first, but Adagio didn't respond anything. Sunset tapped Aria on her shoulder.

"Hmh? Oh, Sunset." Aria said as she took her headphones off.

"Umm... Hi, what's with Adagio? She doesn't usually look like that." Sunset said.

"She is very tired, she said she couldn't get sleep'd well last night." Aria said. "Did you wanna talk to her?"

"Well if she is tired, I would let her be." Sunset said backed on her seat. "I don't wanna make her day any worse."

As the time past, Adagio had fallen sleep and Sonata looked at her and got a great idea.

"Psst, Aria." Sonata whispered.

"What?" Aria asked.

"I've got a great plan."

"Well I doubt it, when you say that."

"No, really you're not gonna regret this. At least let me explain."

"Ugh... Fine, whatever."

"So, I have pencil case full of different color pencils."

"And?"

"We could stick these pencils in her hair and see how long ot would take before she will notice it, we would be taking turns. Kinda like an competition"

"Sonata, that's a stupid plan."

"So stupid that it could work?"

"No, just stupid, but still I kinda like it."

"So are you in?" Sonata asked.

"You bet it."

Then Sonata gave Aria roughly half of her pencils and they started to stick them in one by one into Adagio's poofy hair.
Sunset noticed it, but thought it was not her business, but she still decided to say "She might not be happy when she notices that."

Aria turned to look Sunset and smirked.
"You wanna try too Sunset? I mean, this is what we always do." She said and turned back to Adagio.

"Uhhh... Maybe I'll just stay out of this." Sunset said and backed on her seat.

"We are about ten minutes away from the Camp Everfree." Principal Celestia announced.

"When we were in your age, we did great memories in these woods and Camp Everfree was one of our favorite memory from here." Vice principal Luna said.

"So, who's excited for Camp Everfree? Celestia asked. Everyone cheered in joy.

Adagio woke up for the loud cheering. "Huh? Are we there yet?" Adagio asked very tired looking fuzzy.
Sonata and Aria hided the pencils and pretended to be normal.

"No Adagio, we are not there yet." Sunset answered.

"Oh, then why is everyone shouting so loud then?"

"They are just very excited for going to camping."

"For camping? Ugh wake me up when we're there." Adagio said and closed her eyes. "And one more thing, tell them to shut up."

"Someone really has a bad day." Sunset to herself.

When it was sure Adagio fell back to the sleep, Aria and Sonata continued to sticking pencils in her hair.

"She didn't even notice anything." Sonata said giggling.

"I know, this is so hilarious." Aria said and stick one pencil more in Adagio's hair.

"You know what? I have two pencils anymore."

"I have three more."

"We are almost done it."

When they had stick all the pencils in Adagio's hair, they looked at her and it sure looked so ridiculous.
They giggled whole rest of the bus trip to camp.

When they arrived at the gates of Camp Everfree Celestia announced that they had arrived.
As the bus stopped, everyone went out of the bus to unpack their stuffs.

"Adagio." Aria tapped her on the shoulder.

"Huh?" Was all what Adagio said.

"We're there now."

"Oh, that was quick." Adagio said and stood up on her seat.

"Yeah, maybe because you slept the whole trip." Aria said herself.

"See, she still didn't noticed it." Sonata said giggling.

"Yeah, but when she walks out, everyone else will." Aria said. "I think we are done for."

When Adagio walked out of the bus and went to take her backpacks, she noticed that everyone looked her trying to hold their laugh.

"What are you jerks looking at!" Adagio said. "Is there something funny about me?"

"Your hair..." One of the students said trying to hold his laugh. "Your hair is full of pencils. Sorry, I can't help with that. It looks so funny."

"My hair?... MY HAIR!?" Adagio yelled. She turned to look at bus window and saw her hair.

"Who did this?" She asked in very angry tone. "Oh nevermind, I just figured out who did this." Then she saw Aria and Sonata laughing on the bus floor.

Adagio went into bus and she did not have best intentions in her mind.

"No please, Dagi. It was Sonata's idea." Aria begged.

Then all the students heard two loud smacks. Soon after that Sonata and Aria came out of the bus and both of them had a red dint on their cheeks.

"I told you to this was a stupid plan." Aria said to Sonata.

"You agreed, so it's your fault too." Sonata said back.

"Both of you, shut up!" Adagio shouted. "I don't wanna hear any arguing from this point on. Understood?"

"Yes, under stood." Sonata and Aria said at the same time.

"Now then, I'll go pick the pencils out of my hair." Adagio said and went to sit on the bench. Then she started to take pencils off one by one.

"What a heck of a way to start a week." Sunset said.

Adagio were taking pencils out of her hair and were very frustrated and she cursed in her mind.

"Those two idiots can never let me be without any trouble or headache."

Sunset walked to Adagio and saw her frustration. She thought about moment and then she decided to talk to her.

"Adagio? Is everything alright?" She asked.

Adagio turned to look Sunset and said. "Does it look like it? My sisters are such an pain in the ass."

"Well..." Sunset got interrupted.

"Those two are driving me crazy. I can't even sleep anymore because of them." Adagio said even more frustrated and took more pencils out of her hair.

"Are they so bad?" Sunset asked.

"Try to live with them, every night other one is whining or complaining and the other jumps on the walls 24/7 and never goes on the bed until I smack her in the head." Adagio ranted. "Trust me, you don't want to live with them."

"I see, so that's why you are so tired then." Sunset said.

"Exactly, that's the reason, now would you please let me be alone for a while?" Adagio said and continued taking off the pencils.

"Of course, I'll let you be alone." Sunset said and started to walk toward other her friends.

Her friends were still standing next to bus and waited to Rarity take all her packs and suitcases.

"Isn't Camp Everfree just beautiful place? Fresh air, cool wind in your face and birds flying to your hands." Fluttershy said as bird flew on her finger.

"I think that only happens to you." Rainbow Dash said smirking and lifted her bag.

Rarity got all her packs and suitcases off the bus and damn there were lot's of those.

"Rarity, did you just packed little too much, it's only a week." Sunset said.

"You can't never have enough of clothes, besides we are in woods. I can only imagine how much my clothes would get dirt on them." Rarity said.

"Aha... Right." Sunset said.

Then they heard loud announcement from the speaker.
"Hi everyone! If you would head to courtyard that would be awesome. It's time to start the best week at Camp Everfree."


Everyone gathered to the courtyard where were standing a small gazebo. Even Adagio bothered to walk there.
Gloriosa and Timber Spruce walked on the stage.

"Hi everyone and welcome to Camp Everfee , I'm Gloriosa Daisy, your camp director."

"And I'm Timber Spruce, the awesome guy who should always be invited to fun things."

"You all are free to do whatever you wan't at here." Gloriosa said beaming with energy. "You will have wide options, so let me hear what camp activities would make this the very best week of your life ever?"

"Rock climbing!" Rainbow Dash said.

"Done."

"Archery!"ยจ

"Of course."

"Rainbow Dash, I know your exited, but maybe you should let others to have chance to make a suggestion." Sunset said as hold Rainbow Dash on her shoulder.

"Crafts!" Bulk Biceps said, others looked at him. "My mom needs a new pot holders."

"Done in no time." Glosriosa said.

"Cookie decorating!" Pinkie said and licked her lips.

"Why do make a mean sugar cookie." Gloriosa said and pointed her mike to FLuttershy.

"Early nature walks." Fluttershy said and hold her hands on her cheeks.

"With walking sticks for everyone!"

"Sharp shooting." Aria said.

"Bullets for everyone!"

"Really Gloriosa, isn't that bit too far?" Timber Spruce whispered.

Gloriosa just realized what she had said but, ignored her brother and continued. "I'll be taking requests rest of the time here, so if there is anything you'd like to do or anything you need, just ask."

"Okay, we are almost done. Beforewe go through camp safety rules, we'll be assigning the tents for you." Timber Spruce said.

Gloriosa smiled and walked to others with and bag of cards. "Girls will be get their assignments from Timber, boys you're with me." Gloriosa said.

Timber Spruce brought a bag full of different gemstone cards. Pinkie put her hand in lifted a emerald card.
"Ouuuh, I'm in the emerald tent!" She bounced. "Uh, me too." Rarity said.

"Topaz." Applejack said.

"Aquamrine." Rainbow Dash said.

"I've got amethyst." Fluttershy said. She looked to Vinyl who thumped up.

"Sapphire, not my favorite gem, but it's okay still." Sunset said, but she was soon interrupted by the Dazzlings.

Adagio and her sisters walked to them. "Sunset an you believe it? I didn't have to go in the same tent with Sonata." Aria said quite happily to Sunset.

"But Ari, now we can be together." Sonata said.

"Like I want to be with you." Aria snapped back. "And don't call me Ari, it annoys me."

"Okay Ari... ahem I mean Aria." She said.

"Oh what tent you got then?" Sunset asked.

"Aquamrine." Aria said. "Sonata got topaz."

Rainbow Dash and Applejack both sighed deeply, they will be sharing the tents with Dazzlings.

"What about you Adagio? What tent you got?" Sunset asked.

"Sapphire." Adagio said small smileon her cheeks. She knew that she didn't have to be with her sisters.

"Same as mine" Sunset said.

"Mine too." Twilight answered.

Adagio shooked her head. "Wait, I'm sharing tent with you and this nerd?"

"Excuse me.." Twilight was about to say but, was interrupted bt Sunset.

"She has a bad day, don't annoy her more." Sunset said quietly to Twilight.

"Well, of all the other Rainbooms, you Sunset are the most tolerable. About Twilight I don't know so much. She looks like that princess from the Equestria." Adagio with a tone that told that she hadn't yet fully overcome from the Battle of the Bands.

"I'll assure you she is nice and not any problem to you at all." Sunset said smiling kinda awkwardly.

"I'll take your word." Adagio answered and had an small laugh. "At least she ain't like my sisters."

"Isn't it kinda weird that we got the tent with three people in it?" Twilight asked. "Like others got only two pairs."

Then Timber Spruce walked to them. "Well Sapphire tent is the largest tent here. It can easily even host four people, but we like to give everyone some personal space."

"Oh that's completely reasonal and logical." Twilight said.

"Did you know the reason why sapphire tent is the best one?" Timber asked.

"No, why it's the best?" Twilight asked with curious tone.

"Because you're in it." Timber Spruce said winking his eyebrows.

"Ooh, I bet that you say that to the all the campers in the sapphire tent." Twilight said with strong blush on her cheeks.

"Noooot truee." Timber Spruce said playfully and walked towards the Bulkpiceps. "You're in the ruby tent? Hah that's the worst one."

"Ooooh maaan, really!?"

"Just joking buddy, it's not different from the others, expect from sapphire." Timber Spruce said. "I'll show it to you."

Timber Spruce then turned back to look at Twilight and and gave wink. Adagio was puzzled. "Did he just try to flirt with the nerd?"


Then Gloriosa whistled to whistle. "Okay everyone, go settle in. We will meet at the dock's in fifteen minutes to go over some camp safety rules. Be sure to let me know if you need anything!"

Everyone had settled in now and it was time for the safety rules. Quite important even thou it might be a bit boring.
It took about thirty minutes but, it felt like hours. "Okay then, is everything clear that what you can and can't do?" Gloriosa asked everyone after finishing the safety list.

Everyone were nodding their heads or mumbling something in agreenment.

"Okay then, we'll be gathering around 18:00.pm at the cafeteria area. You have over three hours to get to do what you want and see waht kind of activities there are." Gloriosa said.

"Yeah, and don't worry about the activities that you suggested we are going through them during this time and preparing them for tomorrow. Have fun at camping." Timber Spruce said.

Students started to move towards different locations to see what the camp had to offer.


Adagio wen't to sit to nearest bench to clear her head. Way too much thing were running in her mind. When others had left the area she was there, alone in peace with her mind. She started to realx and listen the sound of the nature. "Maybe this camping ain't so bad after all."

As she was relaxing, she heard some strange noice from the woods. First she thought it was someone pranking her but, decided to pay no mind. After a while she hear'd it again but, this time much louder.
Now she opened her eyes and was ready to beat someone who dared to disturb her relaxing.

"Okay who's there, you wanna get beaten or what!?" She yelled and stood up swinging her fists.
But soon she realized that no one was there. Only the lake, sky and the wind howling in the woods. It started to creep her, it felt like there was something in the woods. Not sure who or what but, she decided just to leave. After all there is nothing she should be scared of. She is the leader and the most dangerous one from the Dazzlings.


Meanwhile in the sapphire tent Sunset were playing with her flashlight, trying to do scary faces. Trying to get some spooky atmosphere and maybe get Twilight into it. Soon she realizes that Twilight isn't too keen into it, she then just smiled to herself and puts the flashlight back to her back.

"Gloriosa's brother is kinda hot, and I noticed that he tried to flirt with you." Sunset said winking her eyebrows.

"He's okay, I think." Twilight said blushing.

"Uuuh, so he actually succeed?." Sunset asked teasing.

"No, I didn't mean it like that." Twilight said awkwardly.

"Is everything alright, I'm sorry if I teased you too much." Sunset said with apologizing tone

"No, it's alright. Don't worry." Twilight said nervously. "I think I'll go for a walk, it's... it's good to get some fresh air."

And then Twilight left the tent and walked out. She quickly bumped into Adagio who was going to go in the tent.

"Hey, there." Adagio said.

"Ouh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." Twilight apologized. "I didn't see you."

"Hey, it's alright. I'm not in the bad mood now." Adagio said trying to calm the nervous girl. "You look like something is worrying you, did something went wrong?"

"No. I'm fine, thank you." Twilight answered and started to walk away.

"Something is definitely bothering her." Adagio thought in her mind, she then peek'd her head into the tent and saw Susnet sitting on the bed and looked kind of gloomy. "Sunset?"

"Oh, hey Adagio, didn't see you coming." Sunset said with gloomy tone.

"Did, something happen between you and that... um..." Adagio tried to remember the name but couldn't quite get it.

"Twilight Sparkle." Sunset reminded. "Well no, not exactly. It's just something is in her mind and she doesn't wanna talk about it. And I kinda teased her anout the Gloriosa's brother."

"Oh, thats all. I mean I noticed it too. She's hiding something." Adagio said and sat next to Sunset. "Sunset, there's something I need to ask."

"What is it?"

"Have you hear'd anything starnge around here?" Adagio asked.

"Strange? No I don't think I have." Sunset answered.

"Well, I hear'd earlier. When I was enjoying the relaxing nature and weather. I hear'd something strange."

"What did it sound like?"

"I don't know, I can't describe it and that's the why it creeps me." Adagio said. "It was really vague and nothing clear."

"You think there is something in the woods? Sunset asked.

"Maybe, maybe not." Adagio answered with slight worry in her tone. "But I think we shouldn't worry it about now. It might be just my mind that plays tricks on me."

"Okay, but let's not treat it too lightly." Sunset said putting hand on Adagio's shoulder. "it might be Equestrian magic too."

"Yeah... Equestrian..." Adagio said and kind of spaced out. Sunset realized that mentioning about Equestria might not have been good idea. Adagio most likely still misses her home.

"Oh, sorry. I didn't mean it like that."

"Don't worry." Adagio said. "Maybe we should go check for others."

"Yeah you're right."

Then both Sunset and Adagio stood up and walked out from the tent. Time had really passed. It was already 16:30.pm.
Sun was still on the sky, but there was clearly tender red color in the sky.

"Before we go meet others, should we try to find that friend of your's?" Adagio asked and rubbed her hair as she felt something itching there, only to find out there was still one pencil in her hair. She grabbed it and threw away.
"I really thought I had already removed all of them by now." She thought to herself

"You mean Twilight." Sunset reminded.

"Yes, Twilight." Adagio repeated.

"She said she was going for walk and enjoy the weather." Sunset said.

"Okay then, let's check the forest path. I think that was one of the activities around here, right?"

"Yeah, let's go check it." Sunset said and they started to walk towards the forest path that had been marked with small white reflectors.


While Sunset and Adagio were looking for Twilight, she had sat down on the wooden log. "Why did I see her in my dreams? I thought we defeated her. She was also the reason I was about be late and not get into the bus." Twilight was talking to herself. "Is she here with me or is she back at the Canterlot city? Ugh, I don't know what to think. Is she real or not?"

Then Twilight could hear strange sound from the woods. It came from the deeper parts of the woods. She turned her head around. Twilight could chills in her spine. "Hello? Anyone there?"

She kept looking around, but saw nothing. She hear'd the sound once more but, it was now more distant.
"Could it be her?" Twilight thought to herself. Either way, she started suddenly feel creeped by the forest and it wasn't as welcoming as it was earlier.

Twilight started to walk back to the campsite, she was walking fast and looked only around her feets because she was too scared to look around. She was soon greeted by the familiar voice. "Hi, Twilight." It was Sunsets voice. She could feel lot more safer now and turned to look up."

And there stood Sunset Shimmer, with the poofy orange haired girl. "Ah, Sunset." Twilight said and hugged her. "I feel lot better now that you are here."

"Ehm, well thank you." Sunset said with awkward tone. "I think I should apologize for the earlier."

"No there is nothing to be sorry about." Twilight said and hugged Sunset even harder. Sunset was really surprised about it.

"Are you okay?" Sunset asked.

"Yes, I am. I just hear'd something strange sound from the deeper forest." Twilight said.

Adagio was surprised too, so she wasn't the only one who hear'd the sound. "What was the sound like?"

"Huh, you hear'd it too?" Twilight asked.

"Yes, I did. Earlier today while I was relaxing."

"What was your name again?" Twilight asked.

"Name is Adagio Dazzle." She said.

"Adagio, got it." Twilight said.

They then started to walk towards back the campsite. Adagio was asking some questions about the sound. And Twilight's answer matched exactly what she had hear'd earlier.
There is definitely something strange going on. While they were walking, they were not aware that someone or something. was watching them from the far away.

It was 17:50.pm and everyone started to gather at the cafeteria. Almost everyone else were there, but three people were missing. Adagio, Sunset and Twilight. No one had seen them after the safety rules briefing.

"Where is Sunset and Twilight?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Ah don't know, maybe we should call for them." Applejack said.

"Yeah, I'll call." Rainbow Dash said and as she was about pick up her phone she could hear loud arguing.

"Why isn't she here already?" Sonata said whining.

"Maybe, she is sick of your bullshit! Like everyone else on this whole camp!" Aria yelled.

"You are so mean Ari!"

"And you are so untolerable!"

"Ugh, even without their pendants they still can cause large amound of negativity." Rainbow Dash said.

"I guess its like once a siren, always a siren." Pinkie Pie said.

"Ah guess yer right." Applejack said.

"Damn it Adagio should be here. She would make them stop. Rainbow Dash said.

"I think she would only make things worse." Rarity said while she manicured her fingernails. "I mean, she's the most assertive one."

"Damn well I'm assertive!" Adagio said as she arrived with Sunset and Twilight.

"Sunset, Twilight!" All the rainbooms yelled.

Where were you guys?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Yeah, like were super duper worried." Pinkie said.

"I know, but it isn't even 18:00.pm." Sunset said. "I don't see the issue."

"Yeah, but it's now, besides, everyone were here already." Rainbow Dash said.

"Yeah, we were worried that you will miss delicious dinner." Pinkie said.

"Okay, we're sorry we made you wrorry bout us." Sunset said calmly.

"Yeah it's not anything serious." Twilight said. "It's just that I was enjoying the nature and kind of forget the time."

"Yeah, we wen't to get her so she wouldn't miss the dinner." Sunset said.

"Okay, thats good to hear, but don't do that again." Rainbow Dash said.

"Yeah, we won't."

Meanwhile Rarity tried to explin herself to the Adagio. "I ment it as a good way."

"Oh really?" Adagio asked sarcastically.

"Yeah, it was just that Rainbow there was hoping you would calm your sisters. They were kind of getting on the nerves."

"Yeah, I think I understand." Adagio said and turned to look at her sisters.

"OOOHH, Dagi! You are back!" Sonata yelled and hugged her.

"Ugh, get off me." Adagio said. "I hear'd that you were getting on the nerves of the fellow campers."

"Damn right, she was." Aria said smirking.

"Ari, it was you too!" Sonata started to whine."

"No it was you! And stop calling me Ari."

"Both of you shut up and sit like good little sisters you are!" Adagio yelled and pinched both of them on the nose. "Didn't I tell you about this when we arrived."

"Yes you did." Aria and Sonata said.

"Good. Now then let's get to eat. Adagio said.

Rainbooms and Dazzlings were sitting at the same table. Maybe because they were friends now, ot that Adagio couldn't bear anyone else. As they ate other Rainbooms noticed that Adagio, Twilight and Sunset were unusually quiet.

"Is everything alright?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Yeah, it's not like you to be quiet Adagio." Aria said.

"It's nothing, really." Adagio answered. "It's just that I hear'd earlier some strange noice, but there was nothing that could have been making it."

"Maybe you are loosing your mind Adagio." Aria said trying to make it sound like a joke.

"No, it's not just her." Twilight said. "It happened to me too when I was sitting in the forest."

"Really?" Applejack asked.

"Yeah and it gve me serious chills." Twilight said shrugging her shoulders.

"Oh dear... I don't think I like this very much." Fluttershy mumbled quietly.

"I think there is nothing to be worried about, sugarcube." Applejack said trying to calm Twilight. "Besides, if there is something making that noice."

"We are still here too." Rainbow Dash continued. "And we will kick it's ass like it's nobodys business."

Yeah, we are here together. There's nothing that can stop the magic of friendship." Sunset said convincingly.

"Thanks I really appreciate it." Twilight said.

"Yeaaah, magic of friendship." Aria said mockingly. "If the sounds you've been hearing even has anything to do with it."

Aria soon felt light punch in her right flank. "Stop it, do you wanna get blasted off again." Adagio said gritting her teeths.

Rainbooms started to laugh even Sonata was laughing. They only saw this just another joke between the Dazzlings. Sunset was the only one not laughing. She understood that Dazzlings might still have old resentments from the Battle of Bands.


It was 19:00.pm now and the dinner was over. Gloriosa came to announce everyone that they had free time until 20:30. Then everyone should be in their tents and after 21:30 must be total silence. Sun was now setting and the skye had turned into bright orange. Air was getting breezier, but there was still the same warmth of the late summer.

"I think, I'm just gonna go straight to the tent." Twilight said. "I'm quite tired."

"Yeah, no problem. We won't disturb you." Sunset said.

Adagio yawned and streched her arms. "I think I'll be doing the same as Twlight."

"But you slept the whole bus trip to here." Aria said.

"So? You two are the reason for it." Adagio said and went after Twilight.


Rest of the Rainbooms were still standing at the now empty cafeteria. "So... anything you guys wanna do?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Let's arm wrestle." Aria suggested to Rainbow Dash.

"Why you wanna arm wrestle with me?"

"You are clearly the most athletic and strongest one of the rest." Aria said.

"Ooh, but I'm the strongest one." Applejack butted in.

"Good, the more the merrier." Aria said grinning. "I'll take you both at the same time."

"Such an big words." Applejack said taunting.

"You bet we gonna wrestle your arms into oblivion." Rainbow Dash said getting even more exited.


As the three of them started to arm wrestle, rest of them were still standing there and wondering what to do.
"So, anything else?" Sonata suggested.

"Let's play poker." Pinkie suggested. "It's really fun if we place some bets."

"Gambling huh?" Sunset asked. "Never knew you were into gambling."

"I'm not like into it, but it will much more exiting after there is something on the line." Pinkie said and pulled pack of cards from her hair.

"You have a magic hair? Just like Dagi does?" Sonata asked exited as she saw Pinkie pulling out the pack.

"Adagio has one too?" Pinkie asked.

"Yeah, she has whole pocket dimension there." Sonata started to explain. "Once I forgot my lunch and phone in there. And I found lot's of different things there. From handgun to pack of condoms. She wasn't happy when I was digging her hair that night.

"She has what in her hair?" everyone asked.

"And not only those but, lots of practical stuff. Like tools, wine bottles and even books." Sonata said. "To think she reads books."

"Are the books most surprising thing there?" Sunset asked.

"Yeah. Like why we would have to read. We had seen all the stuff already."

"Oh yeah, you were thousand year old? right?" Rarity asked.

"Yes, actually 1069 years." Sonata said proudly.


Adagio and Twilight rested in the tent, but still both of them couldn't get the voices out of their mind. Adagio tried to think something else, but couldn't. She could hear the voices still regardless if they were real or not. She turned to look at Twilight who were rolling on the bed. It seemed that Twilight was having hard timeto sleep or she had an terrible nightmare.

"Hey, Twilight." Adagio called, but couldn't get any response. Adagio then went closer to Twilight and shook her gently.

Twilight opened her eyes and saw Adagio standing next to her. "Adagio? What are you doing?"

"It seemed like you were having a nightmare."

Twilight rose up to sit and put her glasses back on. "No it wasn't a nightmare."

Adagio then realized that maybe it was the same voices and sounds that were bothering her as well. "Has it something to do with the strange sounds?"

"Yes, no matter what I try, I can't get them off my head." Twilight said with an worrying tone.

"I know what you mean. I can't either." Adagio said with calming voice. "There is something going on and we need to get answers."

"Are you suggesting going back into the woods?"

"No, not yet." Adagio said. "We should ask from Gloriosa or her brother first."
