			"Oh boy, such a great day for a picnic.", Little Bear said. He and the ponies were walking to the mountain in the fields. He was carrying the picnic basket filled with delicious food.

"You know what, Little Bear, it is.", Rainbow Dash said, happily flying above her friends and the bear.

"That's right.", Twilight said. "The sun is bright, the flowers are blooming, everyday is a sunny day."

"Well, not every day.", Spike said. "There are some days where you might get allergies from flowers that you might be allergic to."

Applejack and Rarity looked at each other. "He does have a point.", the orange cowgirl pony said.

"Agreed.", Rarity said. "I do sneeze a lot at some many things, but I'm not allergic to flowers. As for my sister, she's allergic to flowers."

"I hope there's some many leaves.", Pinkie Pie said, hopping at the same paste as her friends are walking.

"I thought you were looking forward to playing games on the mountain.", Starlight said. "What were you thinking, Duck Duck Goose?"

"Angel Bunny would be enjoying this by now, he loves playing games at a picnic.", Fluttershy said.

"How long do you guys want to be at the mountain for?", Little Bear asked.

"I don't know, maybe before sunset.", Twilight said.

While they were heading towards the top of the hill, Spike was getting tired, his legs were getting numb and his feet are getting sore. "How much long are we even going to make it to the top?", he asked.

"Not for a while, Spike.", Little Bear said.

"Well, I don't know how much longer I'm going to walk up to the very top, I need to rest, you go without me.", Spike said.

"But we're almost there.", Twilight said.

"We can't just leave you here.", Fluttershy said.

Little Bear scratched his head, then an idea popped in his head. "How about you go on Applejack's back.", he suggested.

"I can't see why not.", Applejack said. She walked up to Spike and lifted her back for Spike to jump on. "My back's all yours, Spike."

Spike hopped on the orange earth pony's back and off they walked. "I'm light as a feather.", he remarked.

"Well, nearly.", Applejack said.

They finally reached the top of the mountain. After that, they went over to a cliff and looked across the view, there were hills everywhere. "Oh my gosh.", Rainbow Dash said. "Look at that."

"We're up so high.", Fluttershy said, happily.

"I can almost touch the sky.", Spike said.

Then, there was a slow and smooth wind. "Doesn't wind feel good?", Little Bear asked.

All of a sudden, the wind started to take Applejack's hat away, it blew off her head and it was now flying through the air. "Oh my, my hat!", she cried.

"Oh no!", Little Bear gasped. "After that hat!"

They began chasing the hat, the hat flew around in circles while one of the creatures tried to catch it. Rainbow Dash flew toward the hat and the hat got into her face. "I can't see a thing!", she cried.

"Rainbow, this way.", Little Bear said.

"Which way?!", Rainbow Dash asked. The hat fell off her face.

Spike leaped off the orange pony's back and caught the hat in his grip. "I got it!", he said.

"Hooray!", Pinkie cheered.

"Way to go, Spike.", Twilight said.

Then, there was trouble, the wind still took hold of the hat while Spike was clinging on and dragged him down the mountain. 

Little Bear gasped.

"Oh my gosh!", Fluttershy said.

"Spikey-wikey!", Rarity cried.

Little Bear ran after the little dragon. "Hang on, Spike, I'm coming for you.", he said, trying to rescue Spike. He jumped and took hold of Spike by his sides. 

Spike was saved. "Phew, that was insane.", he said.

"Are you alright?", Little Bear asked.

"Yeah, I'm okay.", Spike said. "Can you put me down?"

"Sure.", Little Bear said, putting the dragon down on his feet.

Applejack ran up to the dragon. "Thanks for saving my hat, Spike.", she said.

"No problem, Applejack.", Spike said. "Can I put it back for you?"

Applejack nodded and lowered her head. "Sure, put it on for me.", she said.

Spike got on his toes to reach the top of Applejack's head and put the hat on the very top of her head. "There we go.", he said. "How's that?"

Little Bear chuckled. Then, he felt his stomach growl in the middle of it's pit. "My stomach's growling, all the running has gotten me hungry.", he said.

They were all sitting down on their blanket as they finished up the food they ate. "That sure was a delicious lunch.", Starlight said, satisfied.

"Good thing I needed my energy.", Pinkie said.

"I agree.", Fluttershy said.

"This is the best picnic ever.", Little Bear said. "I think a sunny day like this was worth it."
