After 5, maybe 10 minutes of walking down that dark tunnel, I started to hear voices. I dashed ahead, and came out into another cave and ran into somepony, sending us both tumbling to the ground.
I heard a voice say "Spitfire! Are you all right?" Instead of calling out, I waited for a reply. After a few moments I heard "I'm fine, Soarin. Somepony else is here, though. Hello? Who's there?" I was ecsatic to recognize the voices of my two good friends.
"Spitfire! Soarin! It's me, Fireflash!" I cried. They called out in unison "Fireflash! What are you doing here?"
"I don't know," I admitted. "Somepony or someponies attacked me, captured me, and threw me in here."
"How did they catch you?" asked Spitfire. "You're faster than both of us combined!"
"Well, I-"
"Only in a straight line!" countered Soarin, cutting me off. "You can't turn to save your life at that sort of speed!  Do you remember when Rainbow Dash saved me and Spitfire with her sonic rainboom at the Best Young Flyer Competition?"
"I know guys, we have some great memories together, but now we need to focus on getting out of here" I interrupted. "In an answer to your question, Spitfire, I was attacked from behind. I had no way of knowing. At least now I know that you two aren't involved in my disappearance."
"Of course we're not involved!" Soarin retorted. "Why would you EVER assume we were involved?"
"You two disappeared first, and nopony could be counted out" I replied.
Then Spitfire cut in. "Well, everypony is looking for Soarin and I, but we have no idea if anypony knows that you're missing, Fireflash. Supposedly you're still looking for us. There must be a pony guarding the cave, and you must have gotten too close so he captured you and threw you in here."
"That makes some sense" I said. "But then why whould they have captured you?"
"It's not neccessarily us" Soarin reasoned. "Somepony may have picked us at random to postpone the exam, then decided to capture you as well when they realized that you could still train Rainbow."
"So our suspects are basically anypony with a grudge against you two, me, Rainbow Dash, the Wonderbolts, or any combination of the above." I concluded.
"Anypony we know that fits those categories?" Spitfire asked sarcastically.
"About everypony in Equestria." Soarin grumbled. I groaned and rolled my eyes.
"Well that cleared up everything. Now how are we going to get out of here? Spitfire? Soarin? Any ideas?"
"Um....."
"Well....."
I rolled my eyes again. "This is great. Just great. At last we found each other, and I guess kind of figured out who put us here, but we're still stuck in this STUPID CAVE!"
"Whoa there, Fireflash. Slow down and cool off. You're breathing pretty hard." said Spitfire.
"I took a few deep breaths and said "All right. So our first course of action is to find a way out of here. There's a tunnel in the front of this cave that leads to another cave, and the exit is in that room, but it's been sealed with magic. You two explore the rest of this cave while I try to think of something."
I spent the next ten minutes or so pacing, and came up with a few insane ideas that were feasibly impossible and not worth mentioning, so when Soarin and Spitfire returned, I was ready for some good news. "Well? What's the report? I hope you two have something positive to tell me."
