Back on mainland Equestria, the Friendship Express had just reached Manehattan. It screeched to a stop as it entered the train station.

The princesses got off, as well as Shining Armor and Starlight. Shining Armor sat down on a bench, just to grasp what had happened.

Cadence sat down with her and so did Starlight. "What's wrong, honey?" Cadence asked. "I'm just so worried about Twilie" he replied.

"I am to, darling, but she'll come back. Don't worry" Cadence said, comforting him. She looked up at the other 2 princesses.

Celestia had a sad look on her face, and Luna tried to comfort her. She then looked out to the ocean. "Please be okay, Twilight" she said to herself.





Meanwhile, the Mane 7's land boat had entered the hurricane. They held on for dear life. "Just keep you're eyes on the horizon!" Twilight shouted.

"We can't find the horizon!" Rainbow shouted. It was kind of hard to see it, especially with the heavy rain and the huge waves.

Then, all of a sudden, a huge wave flipped the boat over. They all held on to something. Within seconds, the boat resurfaced.

"Everypony okay?" Twilight asked. Then, Pinkie saw something in front of Twilight. "WHAT IS THAT!" Pinkie shouted, pointing at it.

Twilight and the others looked. They backed away and huddled together, not knowing what it was. It looked like a huge sea dragon, but they weren't so sure.

Then, it turned around, and they knew exactly what it was, and recognized it, too for it was a familiar face. It was the sea monster from the meltdown.

"Is that the sea monster from the flood!?" Rainbow asked. "I believe it is" Twilight replied. It fully turned around this time. Then, he waved at them, smiling.

The Mane 7 waved back, a little nervously. Then, Twilight realized something, and she face hoofed her forehead and giggled.

"Twilight, what's so funny!?" Rainbow asked. "Don't you remember, he saved us" Twilight said. Rainbow then realized how stupid she was.

The sea monster walked towards them and smiled at them. Twilight flew up and gave him a scratch under the chin, which he loved. In return, he licked her.

Then, the sea monster had a scared expression on his face and pointed. The Mane 7 looked and then, their boat dropped down a wave.

Pinkie screamed and ran over to the sea monster and held his leg. "Hold me!" she said in fear. Then everypony else grabbed onto him.

The sea monster dug his claws into the land boat. "If we don't make it, find our families and tell them we love them" Pinkie shouted.

As they neared, the other wave, they screamed in fear. The sea monster closed his eyes and held on. Then, they crashed into the wave and came out the other side.

The sea monster was still intact and so was everypony else. He opened his eyes and sighed in relief.

Pinkie opened hers afterwards and shouted in triumph "Ha, we made it. Come on, ocean, is that the best you can do!?" she said.

"Am I right, buddy?" she gestured and asked the sea monster. He nodded in return and let out a little roar in triumph.

Then, the wind started picking up, and in a circular motion. Pinkie looked up and screamed. A waterspout formed above the boat and they were sucked into it.

They all screamed as they were pulled up the waterspout. Then, they were launched by the waterspout above the hurricane's clouds.

Then, in the distance, there was a rainbow. "Hey, there really is a rainbow around every corner" Pinkie said.

Then, they all dropped back down into the hurricane.
