A Long Night Out.

Chapter 2

Twilight opened her eyes to an unfamiliar location, her head spinning, the room was brightly lit and looked almost looked familiar to her. She gave her eyes a couple seconds to adjust to the light, she saw she was sitting next to a sleeping Rainbow Dash. Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Applejack were sharing a different bed. Twilight pushed herself up to be nearly face to face with a snarling Princess Celestia

"WHAT WERE YOU PONIES THINKING?" Celestia roared, waking everypony else up from their slumber. Twilight was taken by surprise by her anger, she looked around to see Princess Luna behind her sister, Fluttershy was next to Luna, and to Twilight's confusion, was wearing her Element of Harmony.

"Sister, please calm down, Twilight and her friends will be able to get them back." Luna said her big sister, Celestia looked back in her angrily, causing Luna to back off in fear.

"Princess Celestia, What are- Why is- Find what?" Twilight asking, now starting to shake. She had never seen her mentor this mad at her, or anypony else for that matter. The question seemed to make Celestia even more furious.

"Twilight Sparkle! Don't play this game with me! You know full well what you did!" Celestia yelled back at them, but she seemed to be calming down. After she turned away from Twilight to think about something, and after what seemed like eternity to the girls, she turned back. "I guess you don't know..."

Luna stepped beside her sister to face the ponies, still staring at Celestia with their mouths hanging out. "You all made a very bad mistake last night, even if you didn't mean to." Luna levitated a large brown sack in front of her, she poked her head out to continue talking "This bag contains exactly 7,500 bits, you acquired this from selling your respective Elements of Harmony, except for Fluttershy's of course."

Twilight nearly had a massive heart attack at Luna's words. She had sold the Elements of Harmony? The most powerful objects in all of Equestria? The land's most powerful defense from evil? How could she have thought that would have been a good idea. Then she remembered accepting the wine from her friends at the party. Fluttershy must have not accepted any. Twilight turned over and buried herself in her pillow and begun to cry.

"I'm so sorry Princess Celestia, I don't know what caused me to sell them! I-I just don't..." Twilight let out a muffled cry from her pillow. Her friends crowded around her to support her. Applejack was distracted by a piece of paper she had found in her satchel bag

"Sugercube, it wasn't just you." Applejack showed Twilight the paper, it was an official document confirming the sale, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Rarity had all signed it. Twilight looked over the paper again and again, looking for clues. But found nothing. "We all signed it, we all share the blame for what we did." Rainbow Dash, being the one who had convinced them all to get drunk at the party, looked especially regretful.

"I'm sorry My Little Ponies, for losing my temper." Celestia finally said. "But what we have to do now if figure out how to find the Elements. The only clue we have so far is that you purchased tickets to Las Pegasus"

"Las Pegasus? But...where are we now?" Rainbow Dash asked Celestia, still looking incredibly guilty.

"Ponyville Hospital, but we don't have much time, we have to get going. If your going to fix what you've done. Then we need to find the buyer of the Elements." Luna answered, with urgency in her voice. The group all nodded their heads in agreement, Fluttershy stepped forward from the back of the room, and put her wing around Twilight.

"Don't worry, We'll find them, I promise." Fluttershy said in her comforting voice. Twilight, holding back more tears, turned to Fluttershy.

"I hope so Fluttershy...I really do hope so,"
