Once the tip of the sun showed up, the scarred changeling woke up and quickly got out of the twin-sized bed. He looked at the other, better-looking changeling with an angry expression and gritted teeth. He pushed his parthner out of the bed with no hesitation, only for him to wake up in shock.

"OW!!" The changeling woke up, feeling slight pain in his back. "What the f-?! Where-!? What did i do now, Thyro?!"

"Nothing. I had to somehow wake you up faster so we can check on the ponies, make them somehow feel positive and feed eachother for Chrysalis' sake!!" Thyro growled. "If we just keep them in misery forever, we'll die! And they will make their escape.. you don't want that. Right, Andro?"

Andro scratched the back of his head, then nodded. He got up and opened the near window, to catch some freash, morning air. Thyro, on the other hand, went to check the ponies if they're doing somehow alright. Yes, they were gone. Their collars were unlocked and the key was nowhere to be seen in the room, probably Frighter took it with himself and the pony-siblings. Enraged, Thyro screamed, catching Andro's attention.

"Hey Thy? What happend this time!?"

"The damn ponies escaped.." Thyro walked towards the drawer, where the key was lying before, opened it and grabbed a dark green, almost black colored beetle with his magic. He then went to the kitchen, specificly, the dining table, where he placed the weird beetle. "C'mon, show me the ponies. I want to know where they are now!"

And right this instant, the weird looking beetle spread it's wings and started to glow in a eyeblinding light that was colored green. Then, an orb appeared and showed a picture of the running ponies and their dragon friend. Thyro quietly stared at them, following them without their knowledge.











Meanwhile, the pony siblings were starving. Frighter was feeling surprisingly fine, even though he haven't been eating in a week. Dasher Cloud then noticed a small pond, that looked like it had clear water. He immediately ran towards the small pond, in attempt to drink from it, to at least satisfy his thirst. Frighter and Lighting Cloud ran after him.

Frighter ran faster than both of them, and when he was just about to take a sip from the clear water, he jumped away screaming,

"What is that?!"

When the pony sibling caught up to him, they both looked at the water and backed away, feeling a little creeped out. There was a white deer in the pond, with glowing green eyes and a third horn, very similar to a unicorn one. The mysterious deer slowly rised from the water and said to the three creatures,

"Do not even try on drinking from my ponds, all of them may seem clear and fresh to try.. but their water hides an old curse that'll turn you into a different creature, which will bring you bad luck!" And just like that, the deer disappeared. Frighter looked at the pond's water again, to check if the deer is still there, but he got disappointed when he saw the reflection of a crazy dragon with bloody scratches all over his body, growling and roaring. This weird vission of the dragon terrified the siblings.











"Hey Thyro, what are you planning so much, that you're just starring into the magic screen for almost an hour?" Andro asked, feeling a little.. bored. The changeling then sat beside his friend, to see what he's watching. On one side, he got a little shocked that Thyro is stalking the ponies and possibly planning to catch them again and milk the love out of them forever, but on other.. Actually, that was it. There was no other side to Thyro's actions and Andro's reaction to them.

Thyro licked his lips from slight hunger.

"We will get our special ponies back, Andro.. We just have to wait for the perfect moment.."

Andro felt annoyed at this answer, like, what in the name of Chrysalis did he ment for "perfect moment"?!


"I'll take advantage of the cursed ponds." The scarred changeling spoke up again. "If one of them forgets about the curse and actually drinks from one of them, they'll turn into another beast, then, their love and friendship for them will increase, we'll follow the scent of their love and catch them!" Andro was a little confused at his parthner's plan, but he still nodded in agreement. "And if that little dragon with them tries to harm us, i'll just trap him in a cocoon. It's that easy!!"
