The next night finds you sitting on your couch, sipping your favorite beverage and half-heartedly perusing that morning’s newspaper. It isn’t the most exciting night, but it’s always nice to get a chance to relax.

A series of knocks at your door jolts you out of your hazy routine. It’s pretty late for somepony to be trying to reach you.

“Are you there?” calls a familiar voice. “It’s me.”

Well, maybe it is shaping up to be an interesting night, after all.

You toss the newspaper to the side and scurry over to the door quickly, throwing it open. “H-hey, Rainbow Dash!” you sputter, feeling your heart rise in your chest. “Wh-what’s up? It’s good to see you!”

She displays a quivering smile to you. “So...I just...Really, really need to talk to you about something,” she states. “Which, I guess is why I’m here late. It’s important.”

“Do you wanna come in?” you ask.

A flash of fear rolls over her features. “N-no, I just...We should go somewhere else to talk.”
