//------------------------------// // 5. Way // Story: Skyblock // by Prince of Cavia //------------------------------// Calm Sky and Sweet Cloud reached Cloud Town by early morning. They never were so glad to see their hometown like today. They noticed a pair of guards on the lookout. One of the guards flew towards the mares. “You are Calm Sky and Sweet Cloud?” “Yes. We need to see the mayor,” said Calm Sky “You should. Entire town is looking for you,” replied the guard.  The pegasi flew towards the center of the town. There were many pegasi down there, talking about something. Calm Sky guessed they were talking about the two mares that disappeared. She felt a bit nervous. She noticed her father talking to the mayor of the town. Sweet Cloud noticed her parents, and flew towards them. Sky landed on town square. Her leg hurted a bit. “Calm, where have you been? Are you alright? We were so worried about you,” said her father, a white pegasus with a purple mane. “I had to put the guard on the alert. You better have an explanation,” said the mayor, a dark blue stallion with a black mane. “We have. We found aliens!” said Calm Sky The mayor was confused. “What, aliens? What nonsense is that!” “Yes, real aliens. They are angular, capable of magic, and…” “You should have thought about a better explanation. That is ridiculous,” said the mayor. He looked at Calm Sky’s father. “You should pay more attention to what your daughter is doing. It’s not the first time she disrupts the peace of this town.” Calm Sky was angered. “I have proof. See,” she pointed at the nametag. “They gave it to me!” “Yeah, sure. Mr. Sky, you should take better care of your daughter,” the mayor said. Then he flew towards the guards. “The vagabonds were found. You are dismissed.”  Calm Sky looked at her father. “It is true. We meet aliens. They built a structure close to here. They know about pegasi!” The stallion hugged his daughter. “I believe you.” “Really?” “Yes. I always thought there was something outside,” he said. “Still, you shouldn’t have flown away from the town for three days. I was worried.” “Sorry. I just…” “It’s alright. Just don’t leave the town without my approval again.” Calm Sky looked at her saddlebag. “They could teleport. Maybe if I did some experiments, I could find a way to reach them.” “You can try, but in our house. You will stay there.” Calm Sky was a bit annoyed at getting grounded again, but she guessed it was understandable. On her way home, she was thinking. Pegasi might not believe her, but she will prove them wrong. She will find other towns, she will find Dashie. She will learn about where the builders went, and will learn how they teleport. She promised it to herself. She will find a way.
