Derpy Hooves is a hard working mailmare, a talented ex-weather pony... and completely in love with thunderclouds. When a season of uncommonly good weather graces Ponyville, she decides to go on a quest to reunite with her absent lover... even if he's simply a mass of water vapor and electrons.

This story uses a version of Derpy from a short story of mine called Dreams of Thunder. While it's not required to read that story before reading this one, any readers who wish to read how Derpy met the Storm can check it out.

Twilight and her friends are invited to spend a week-long vacation aboard the cruise ship Aurora. However, when trouble strikes at Ponyville, can a town that's grown used to having a pack of heroes manage to save itself?

Derpy is a special pony, as any resident of Ponyville will attest to. Most say an accident with a thundercloud scrambled her brains, but she knows otherwise: It opened her mind.
