"What is your point about this expedition, Captain Coltzalo Pizarro?" asked Luna "As you see, your highnesses. This legendary City of Gold is the only civilize place of this planet. If we can find it, we will make a-" said Coltzalo as he's show them the hologram of the planet that located La Canela. "You will have no support or official authorization in this expedition from us if you're intend to conquer it," said Celestia. "Of course not!, your hignesses! My point is that we're trying to talk to them and offer them some of our goods. In that way, we may got some of their gold," said Coltzalo. "As long as that you didn't do any harm or act as a threat them. You will have the support from the crown." said Cadance. "Thank you, your highnesses," said Coltzalo and he's put his helmet on, close the hologram and walk out from the Throne Room. "Hi little bro," said Franciscolt "Hi Franciscolt," said Coltzalo "Got any mission from the crown?" asked Franciscolt. "Of course. What about you?" asked Coltzalo. "No but I have a mission with Rainbow Dash tonight," said Franciscolt. "I know what you mean. And have a nice date with her," said Coltzalo. "Thank you," said Franciscolt and he's go prepare himself for the lovely date of himself and his girl that will happen tonight. Meanwhile, in Ponyville... "The expedition in search of the City of Gold will happen in 2 days!" said The Anncouncer. "Did you heard that?" asked Cloudchaser. "You know that it's just a rumor right? As in that the how can the whole entire city made of gold can exist?" asked Flitter. "Oh please! Please, please, please, please!" said Cloudchaser. "I'm not going to sign up for that expedition or take a step on any of those dang Ships!" said Flitter "You know right that our current position is now is... NEARLY BROKE! WE HAVE NOTHING BUT SACK OF BITS AND A VOROMPATRA"Said Cloudchaser as she's point to a Vorompatra name Muhammad. "Me and you're not going to be in this position if you don't playing a game with that cheaty Naga!" said Flitter. "How many times I have to tell you that "how should I know that his dices are loaded"!" said Cloudchaser. "I'm not going to risk my life just for gold! I'm not even found my true love yet!" said Flitter. "Geez!" said Cloudchaser and the she's got an idea in her head. "Well... you might found your true love on those Ships," said Cloudchaser and then Flitter opens her eyes widely. "But if you don't wanna go you might lost a change of-" said Cloudchaser but Flitter quickly stop her. "Whoa! Stop! Change my mind! Let's join the expedition!" said Flitter "Sound nice to me," said Cloudchaser. 2 Days Later, at the Port... "You and your friends sign here, Ms. Aisha," said Royal Guard. "Thank you," said Aisha and she's sign her name and then let her friends Aixa and Zaida sign their names. They are the Horses from Saddle Arabia. "Next," said Royal Guard and Flitter and Cloudchaser show up with Muhammad and sing their names. "The animal must be in the cage or tied up on the Ship during the expedition," said Royal Guard. "Thank you for the advice," said Flitter and she's walk with Cloudchaser and Muhammad on the Ship. Then, she's tied up Muhammad with a rope that tied up with the wall. After all passengers signed up, the leader of the expedition, Coltzalo Pizarro, order all of the four Ships to sail into the space with 630 passengers. When they are in the space for two days, Captain Pizarro got a message from Princess Twilight to reinforce the colonists of Haylencia. In Captain's cabin... "I know that this mission mean a lot to you. But as that I am the Princess, I must think about helping my citizens first," said Twilight. "Well... as you said... Princess Twilight," said Coltzalo and he's close the hologrammer and contact to all commanders of the Ships in his fleet. "To all passengers, we just got the message from Princess Twilight. She's said she need us to go and help the colonists of Haylencia from the Kraang!" said Commanders. All of them are absoulute displease of what did they just heard. But if this is the order from the Princess, they can't resist it. The fleet change its way of the expedition and go to the colony of Haylencia that are only a Star System away. Three days later, the fleet have arrive and landed outside of the walled city of Haylencia. A few hours after they landed, the light shoot out from center of the nearby forest and forming a portal. When portal is completed, and hundred of Flying Kraang Droids fly out from Dimension X with Kraang Flyers and Kraang Stealth Ships and open fire everywhere. Meanwhile, at the Center of the Forest... "Keep them all busy as long as all Kraang can do," said A Voice and a figure step out from the shadow, revealed to be Kraang Subprime. "I, Kraang Subprime must lead my fleet to find the legendary City of Gold!" said Kraang Subprime. Later at night, when they are asleep, Flitter and Cloudchaser are making a move. They steal of some of the foods, steal the Map, get Muhammad and hijacked one of the Ship's boat and sail into the space on their own. When they make their way our of the atmosphere, they are confronting with a fleet of the Kraang. Kraang Subprime is leading the fleet that have 500 of Kraang Droids, 11 of Kraathatrogons and 26 of Laser Cannons. They all seeing the Kraang are on the backs of all eleven Kraathatrogons with their arms and are also on the same way that they are going. Flitter and Cloudchaser have no other choice but to go through them if want to be the winner. "Okay... here goes nothing!" said Flitter and she's pull the lever to full speed and go into the Kraang's fleet. "Intruders! Intrduers!"Said Kraang and all laser staring to shoot out from the backs of the Kraathatrogons. "AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" screamed Flitter and Cloudchaser. 2 Days Later... "Ooh..." said Flitter after she's got up from a long sleep with her friend. "How long... that we had fell unconscious?" asked Cloudchaser and go to grab the apple from barrel but she's got nothing. Then, she's turn to look at Muhammad, the bird is now absolutely had its belly full with food that are for three of them. "OOOOHH... GREAT!" shouted Flitter and she's fall on her back. "Can this situation get worse than it is?!" asked Flitter and then the Ship's boat starting go faster. They all turn to look behind them and saw a planet that is mostly filled with water before them. The Ship's boat is now enter the atmosphere and they all are being drag into it. "AAAAHHHHHH!" screamed Flitter and Cloudchaser.
