This story takes place on a beautiful day here in Ponyville, where everypony seemed happy on this nice day; well, almost everypony. Princess Celestia has another alicorn princess to Equestria, two years ago. She wanted the new alicorn to try to be in a princess life like Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, and Princess Twilight are. But after some time of thinking she did, she wouldn’t accept it, and decided to live a normal life like everypony else in Equestria, she said that it was for the best to keep it safe from everypony or every creature and it actually helped, especially if it involves getting captured by any creature that tries to take over Equestria, like Queen Chrysalis or King Sombra. As some ponies were walking around Ponyville, the purple alicorn was flying all around Equestria on patrol looking for trouble, but no trouble was in sight, ever since Tirek attacked, and the Mane 6 along with Diamond’s new friends defeated Tirek, there was no other trouble for Equestria, except for bullies or stealers. But none of it was anywhere in sight.
‘Well, this life has been going great for everypony, but ever since the chaos thing happened with Tirek, it hasn't been going right for me, ever since my family died trying to save everypony. I might have lost my family, but I still keep going no matter what it takes. Everypony is safe as long as they got me, Diamond-Chi. My mother might have been gone cause’ she protected me from him, but I always have my friends on my side, no matter what. Everything was starting to get better, little by little. But mostly everyday you start to learn something new. Diamond thought as she flew all over Ponyville. ‘Like I did; a few weeks ago, Rainbow Dash had been telling me about this adventure pegasus, Daring Do. After what Rainbow Dash told me about her, I couldn’t help, but read one of her books, and it was amazing, so I recently became a fan of her, and the author of the Daring Do books, AK. Yearling, boy let me tell ya, that pony sure can write an amazing story, she’s phenomenal when it comes to writing a story, and ever since I read all of the books, it sometimes made me think it would be amazing to go on adventures with Daring Do, just to see what it was like.’ Diamond smiles as she was thinking while she flew.
As Diamond was flying around Ponyville, she saw Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash were walking together. As the two ponies were walking, Pinkie looked up in the sky, and she saw Diamond on patrol, so she started calling to her.
“Hey, Diamond-Chi!” said Pinkie, calling out to Diamond.
Diamond looks down, and seeing Pinkie calling out to her, she flew to them, and landed.
“Hey, Pinkie and Rainbow.” said Diamond with a small smile.
“How was patrol?” Rainbow asked with a raised eyebrow and a smirk.
“It was good, although nothing has been happening… yet.” said Diamond as she kinda rubbed the back of her neck.
“Heh, I’m sure it’ll turn around soon enough.” said Rainbow.
“Oh, Diamond, how was the Daring Do reading?” Pinkie asked excitedly.
“Oh it was amazing, I caught up to the book that you and Quibble were in, Rainbow, and I heard that you and him are friends now.” said Diamond as she looked RD at the end.
“Yeah, we sure are, even though he has the bad taste in books, but he seems cool, in an egghead, puzzle-solving kind of way, hehe.” said Rainbow as she rubbed the back of her neck.
“That’s good to know, so what are you two up to?” Diamond asked as she raised an eyebrow with a smile.
“Oh I was getting the newspaper, and I thought I would walk with Rainbow for a bit, before I can get it.” Pinkie answered.
“I was about to go to visiting AK Yearling, but thought I would talk to Pinkie for a bit. Hey, since you really like Daring Do, Diamond, wanna come with me to meet her?” Rainbow asked with a smirk.
Diamond was shocked when she asked that, but then got a little more excited when she started thinking about Daring Do, so she smiled.
“That would be awesome, Rainbow Dash.” Diamond answered a little excitedly.
“Come on then.” said Rainbow, motioning Diamond to follow her.
Rainbow flew towards Daring Do’s place.
“We’ll see ya later, Pinkie.” said Diamond as she spread her wings, getting ready to fly.
“Okie dokie lokie.” said Pinkie with a smile as she happily bounced to the pony who was giving out the newspaper, and as she did so, Diamond followed Rainbow Dash to Daring Do’s place.
Diamond and Rainbow Dash flew into the forest northwest of the Galloping Gorge and northeast of Vanhoover, not far from the Fortress of Talacon in Tenochtitlan Basin. As soon as they got there, they landed, and walked the rest of the way. As they did so, they both started chatting to each other about Daring Do, and what an adventure they think that she might do first.
“So what do you think Daring Do’s next adventure might be?” Diamond asked with a smirk as she looked at Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow got excited, and looked at Diamond and started flying a bit above the ground before she spoke.
“I don’t know, but I seriously can’t wait 5 more months till it comes out, so, what do you think Daring Do’s next adventure might be, huh?” Rainbow asked, holding her hooves together excitedly.
“I don’t know, but I’ll bet it’s gonna be better than the last.” said Diamond with a smile.
“Totally.” said Rainbow.
“Though i’ll admit, the artifacts that Daring has been getting throughout the series are really interesting, like the Ring of Destiny, and 7-Sided chest of Chicomoztoc.” Diamond gave her opinion.
“Don’t forget the The Griffon's Goblet.” said Rainbow.
“Finding out the Riddle of the Sphinx.” Diamond added.
“Protecting the glowpaz.” Rainbow added.
“And the Sapphire Statue!” Diamond and Rainbow said at the same time, face to face with a smile.
They both looked at each other with a bit of a shock, and blinked a few times before they chuckled, and sighed in relief.
“You know, I'm actually glad you talked me into this series, Rainbow, otherwise I wouldn’t have gained more interest in reading, I mean, beside the book Rarity showed me, the Shadow Spade.” said Diamond.
“Right.” said Rainbow, not amused.
“Hey, you’ll never know it would be interesting if you don’t give it a chance.” Diamond stated as she looks at her.
“Let’s just continue finding her home, it’s around here somewhere.” said Rainbow as she flew ahead a bit.
“Alright.” said Diamond as she rolled her eyes by her reaction with a smirk.
As Rainbow Dash and Diamond-Chi looked for her home, Diamond spotted some hay by the rocks. Diamond went up to the rocks, and when she looked, it wasn’t just the hay; it was Daring Do’s/AK Yearling’s home.
“Hey, Rainbow, is this the place?” Diamond asked as she looks at her.
Rainbow then flew to her, then looks at AK’s home.
“Yep.” said Rainbow as she landed and walks up to the door.
Diamond followed Rainbow from behind. Rainbow then started to knock on her door. After a few seconds, AK opened it, looked around to make sure nopony was following them, and did a motion telling them to come in. Rainbow and Diamond walked into her home, and as they did, Diamond looked around her home.
“AK, your home is amazing, no wonder you like to keep it organized when writing your stories.” Diamond said as she looked around.
“And who are you?” said AK Yearling as she looked at Diamond with a raised eyebrow, noticing that Rainbow brought a friend.
“The name’s Diamond-Chi, Ms.Yearling, or you can just call me Diamond.” said Diamond as she introduced herself.
AK Yearling smiled a bit.
“Don’t tell anypony, but.. AK Yearling is actually Daring Do.” Rainbow whispered into Diamond’s ear, smirking after she told her the secret about AK Yearling.
Diamond was shocked on what she heard, her pupils were small as in shocked; she then looks at Rainbow then at AK Yearling, knowing now that AK Yearling is actually Daring Do herself.
“Oh.. my.. Celestia… this is.. this is.. awesome!” said Diamond excitedly as she did a backflip.
“I know, right?” said Rainbow as she looked at Diamond with a smile. “I had the same reaction as well.. minus the backflip. But it’s gotta be kept secret, ok, Diamond? Cause if anypony else knew about this, it could get out of control.”
“No worries, I Pinkie Promise on that; cross my heart, and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye.” said Diamond with a smile as she did the Pinkie Promise. “Besides, I’m best at keeping secrets.”
“Good thing to know, Diamond.” said Rainbow.
“Um, I hate to interrupt your conversation, but I’m kinda busy at the moment, and authors would like to be alone to finish their stories, so…” said AK Yearling.
“Oh, absolutely.” said Diamond as she went to the door.
“Right, I have the Wonderbolts training I need to attend to.” said Rainbow as she spread her wings.
“Well, good luck on your training, RD.” said Diamond with a smirk.
“And good luck with your patrol tomorrow, Diamond.” said Rainbow as she started flying to the Wonderbolts Academy.
“It’s actually my day off tomorrow!” Diamond yelled at RD, but apparently she didn’t seem to hear her, and Diamond started to get unamused and nods. “Of course, she doesn’t listen to me.” Diamond then started flying home.
Daring Do then chuckled as she heard what she said before Diamond left, as she went back to her typer, and started typing out a bit of her new book that she’d been working on.
