	"Twilight, we better hurry. It's already dark."

Agreeing to this, I briskly hurried home with the thoughts of Zecora's wisdom spinning through my head.

Once I arrived home, I turned down Spike's request to sleep early, and quickly wrote down Zecora's premonition:

"The beginning of the end is near, beware,
Brought to us by an unsuspected mare,
Blood Diamonds she'll be surrounded by,
Innocent ponies everywhere will die.

This prophecy will always stay as a fact,
Unless one were to go and fight back,
Then most will be safe and sound,
Happiness and Joy will be found.

But beware of the consequences,
This outcome will be full of messes,
A dear and close friend will end up dead,
Simply due to the three words a wolf had said."

I could barely contain the anger inside me. This was no mere coincidence. The wolf in Zecora's rhymes had to be the exact one Celestia is trusting me to befriend with.

I searched through my whole library, looking for another book on 'Blood Diamonds'. I didn't find one until the birds started chirping their early calls. I am to pick up Kodokuna soon. I look around the treehouse to find my floor covered in scattered books and hope that Spike wakes up early to clean up the mess.

With the book floating in front of me, I depart my home, and alone enter the Everfree Forrest.
