//------------------------------// // ~Chapter Two: The Trip.~ // Story: Lyra and Bon Bon's Amazing Adventure // by Snapple Jack //------------------------------// The two ponies were over joyed the next day. "Hey Bon Bon! You packed up yet?!" Lyra screamed from the living room. "Almost!" Bon Bon shouted back from the bedroom. "Ohhhhhh where is it? Where is it?" Bon Bon looked frantically for a certain item. Under the bed, in the drawers, the closet but it was no where. Then she finally found it. "There you are!" Bon Bon reached under her pillow for her lucky blanket. It was a faded yellow with a few tears and rips here and there. Bon Bon stuck it in her bag carefully. "Ready Lyra." Bon Bon said coming out of the bed room hooves full with suitcases. "Your not taking that much stuff are you Bonnie?" Lyra asked jumping off the couch to help her friend with her bags. "They're just a few necessities." Lyra chuckled. She knew she was lieing. Lyra liked that about Bon Bon. She always made her laugh. As they walked up to the post office, they saw Ditzy Doo putting up some flyers on the billboard. "Hey Ditzy, what's new?" Lyra asked behind the gray pegasus. "Hey you two, just putting up some flyers." Ditzy said with a mouth full of muffin. Lyra and Bon Bon read a flyer that said 'Discord Escapes, Watch out!'. They didn't really pay attention to it. They were to excited about the trip. When they walked into the post office, they saw that almost half of Ponyville was there. "Bon Bon! Lyra!" They're friend Golden Harvest shouted from behind them. "Harvest, what's going on?" Lyra asked. "We all got a letter saying we were invited to a specail meeting from the princess." Bon Bon sighed lowering her head. "Told you it was a scam." "I know. Lets just go home" The two ponies walked out the door disapointed. When they were stopped by a pony wearing a black cloak. "Bon Bon and Lyra?" The mysterious pony asked. "Yes." The two ponies answered together. The pony wearing black looked around to see if the coast was clear. She then motioned them to follow her. They followed her to the dumpster next to SugarCube Corner. "Ew what are we doing here?" Bon Bon asked covering her nose. "Keep your mouth shut." The pony wearing black demanded. "Don't talk to her that way!" Lyra shouted defending her best friend. "You wanna get to Canterlot or not?" The best friends nodded they're heads to respond. The unknow mare then put both hooves on their shoulders. "Close your eyes." The mare in the black cloack demanded. They did. Three seconds later, they could smell a fresh pine tree sort of smell instead of a gross dumpster smell. They felt the wet grass under their hooves instead of the cold cement. A breeze flown through their manes. They opened their eyes and saw that they weren't near the dumpster but instead on a path way leading to some sort of castle. The sky was orange like the sun was about to set, but it was morning when they were at the post office. They looked around to try to find the mare, but she was gone.
