	It was a beautiful day in Canterlot. Three friends named Zephyr Dash, Crystal Dancer, and Dream Treasure were playing. Zephyr Dash was a Colt, while Crystal and Dream were fillies. "Hey Zeph and Crystal, watch this!" yelled Dream Treasure. Dream Treasure zoomed down an electricity wire on a skateboard. "WHOAA!" screamed Dream. CRASH! Dream Treasure hit the ground. "Dream! Are you okay?" said Zephyr Dash. Crystal Dancer sighed. Another attempt to get they're cutie marks, and it failed. Zephyr Dash already had his Cutie Mark. It was a Wrench and Screwdriver. It represented his ability to fix electronics. He could fix anything, as long as he had at least 30 minutes to do it. He once fixed a computer that was completely smashed in 5 minutes.

I gotta check to see if my Cutie Mark is still there!" Zephyr Dash quickly checked his flank, and to his surprise, his cutie mark was still there. "What? How is my Cutie Mark still there?"
"You three weren't sucked up by the tornado, but you were all temporarily deafened and blinded. Rocks just hit you in the heads, thats all. Three guards came by and got you. Your lucky you weren't sucked up, ecspecially you, little Engineer. Right now you are in the West Canterlot Hospital." explained the nurse. "Oh and one more thing, you all have a couple of guests. The nurse left the room and to Zephyr, Crystal and Dream's surprise, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna walked in...
