Chapter 5: Zam The Puppy

After Starlight's shocking discovery, she tried as quick as she could to get Trixie back from vanishing into thin air like that and she took the small puppy along with her. She trotted up the stairs and opened the door, locking it for Trixie's privacy, and headed back to Twilight's castle.

She pounded on the door in front of her, anxious when pondering about Trixie's disappearing when Twilight opened the door. Twilight smiled at Starlight and she raced past her, pushing aside her mentor and charged back to the guest room.

"SPIKE!"

Spike came through the door, frantically checking his surroundings for Starlight and to see why she was calling him. Starlight settled the puppy down and she gave him a grin, petting him.

"I think I'll name you... The Great and Majestic Zam! After Trixie of course," Starlight then spun around and saw Spike, waiting for her to see him.

"Spike! I told Trixie that I found her shrine and she ran away! And I found this note in her room," she pulled out the note with her magic and put it in Spike's claws and he read it.

"Why did you tell her?" Spike asked, grasping the puppy and snuggling into Starlight's light purple sheets. Starlight then explained that she found Zam when searching for Trixie and that she told her because she wasn't thinking.

Spike got up with Zam. "Then let's go find her! I'll tell Twilight-!" Starlight cut off Spike with pushing her muzzle to his nose, growling like an aggressive dog.

"Don't you dare tell Twilight! Then she'll know about the shrine!" Starlight groaned.

"Can we maybe tell someone trustworthy?" Spike suggested, petting Zam in the process.

"We can tell the mane six!"

~~~~~

"That's ridiculous, darling!"

"Calls for a party!"

"I can't believe that Trixie would have a shrine for Twilight..."

"Oh, my..."

"Yes! An adventure!"

Starlight and Spike had informed the mane six about Trixie and her shrine, along with her disappearance and they wanted to help no matter what.

"Okay, we all can look for her but we can't tell Twilight about anything!" Starlight snapped, glancing at each multi-colored pony in sight, along with a certain purple dragon and a puppy.

"Alright, everypony! Shall we head out?" Rarity pronounced, taking a hold of her saddlebag and leading everypony outside with Starlight and Spike. Zam charged through the castle and was caught by Applejack, fur being ruffled by the hard-working pony, about to set off on a remarkable journey.
