A Spoon for a Princess

Call of the Cutie Map

"Ohnononononono," Twilight Sparkle said as she frantically ran around the map of her castle.

"Calm down Twilight," Rainbow Dash said, "Its not like the map has never called on us to solve a friendship problem before."

"But the map has never called the six of us to six different locations before," Fluttershy whispered.

"Why is it callin' us to different locations is what I want ta know," Applejack said.

"Right, we have to go do this, maybe we can find the answers when we solve the problems," Twilight said having calmed down, "Rainbow, you get to Cloudsdale. AJ, you're needed in Canterlot. Pinkie, you are going to Starlight's old village. Fluttershy, Manehatten. Rarity, you get to travel to Yakyakistan."

"Yaks!" Pinkie Pie nearly screamed looking at Rarity.

"Why do I have to go to the smelly Yaks?" Rarity asked.

"The map does what the map does." Rainbow said nonchalantly.

Suddenly there was a giggle and growl from Twilights throne and all six ponies turned and looked at Flurry Heart. She had been so quiet that they had all forgotten that she was there. but she had now woken up from her nap and was playing with one of her teddy bears and her Whammy.

"What am I going to do, I can't take her with me." Twilight said. remembering that Flurry's parents, her brother Shining Armor and Princess Cadence were visiting Saddle Arabia with Princess Celestia and had asked Twilight to watch her niece.

"What about Spike?" Pinkie asked.

"He, Big Mac and Discord went to a Ogres and Oubliettes convention in Las Pegasus this week," Applejack said, "and Starlight is up in the Crystal Empire visiting Sunburst." Spike, Big Mac, and Discord had been talking about that convention for months, Trixie had wanted to go, but instead she had decided to go with Starlight. Twilight thought of calling her parents, but she then remembered that they had gone whale watching in Luna Bay. Maybe Owloysius, nah, that's just crazy talk.

"Rarity, do you think Sweetie Belle would be able watch Flurry Heart?" Twilight asked.

"I'm sure she would love to darling, but she and her Crusader friends are having their second annual Cutie Mark Camp this week." Rarity said.

"Ok, I will figure something out, why don't you get going, as soon as I find somepony to watch here I will leave as well." Twilight said. She knew that there had to be somepony in Ponyville who could watch her. As she looked around the room she saw a familiar journal sitting on a nearby table and thought to herself, maybe Sunset could watch her, no that wouldn't be fair to her.

After several minutes of thinking Twilight placed Flurry Heart in her stroller and was getting ready to go look for somepony, anypony, who could watch the young foal when there was a knock at the castle door. Twilight went to go answer the door hoping that Princess Luna had decided to stop in for a visit.

"Silver Spoon what a pleasant surprise!"
