"What is he doing here?!" Twilight asked as she jolted me awake.
I looked up to see her standing over me with an eyebrow raised. I hadn't even realized I'd fallen asleep.
"She was trying to steal our piece of the armor last night. I followed her out onto the top of the train and talked her down. I think I managed to break Blackblood's hold on her." I said.
"I'll be the judge of that." Twilight said.
She grabbed Wind's head and brought it close to hers. She put her horn against Wind's forehead. After about a minute, she put her back down and pulled back.
"Well, she's cleared of dark magic. How did you do it?" She asked.
"I just reminded her of how strong she is and how close we've always been. She fought him off. And there's also some better news." I said as I opened Wind's bag and pulled out the helmet from before.
"Wow! We have two pieces now! We might get to have that after party after all!" Pinkie yelled.
Wind started to wake up. She looked up at me.
"Jet! I thought you were reassigned." She said.
"No. I had some help in making them see the error of their rules." I said.
"Where am I?" She asked.
"You're on a train to Las Pegasus." I replied.
"Las Pegasus? How did I get here?" She asked as the train jolted to a stop.
"Come on. I'll explain everything on the way." I said as we exited the train.
As we walked to the tourist kiosk, I explained what happened to her.
"Wow. The last thing I remember is hearing that you were being reassigned." She said.
"Yea. You were pretty out of it." I replied as I grabbed a map.
I looked it over.
"Damn it. Would it kill these people to list the kingdom ruins on a map." I said.
"Excuse me." Said a voice from in front of me.
I looked up to see a male unicorn with straightened black and red striped hair. He was wearing black jeans and an orange T-shirt with a picture of a microphone on it.
"I couldn't help but over hear that you were looking for the old kingdom ruins." He said.
"Yea. Why?" I asked.
"Well, it's just that that's where I'm heading here shortly. Just as soon as my DJ arrives. We're throwing a huge rave out there. I can give you guys a lift if you'd like." He said.
"That would be nice. What do you ladies think?" I asked.
They all nodded.
"Alright. Sounds like a plan to me. I'm Jet Stream. This Is Wind Storm, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Rain..." I started to say as I shook his hand.
"Nice to meet you all. I'm Sun Blast. I run a club out here in Las Pegasus." He said.
"You said you were waiting on your DJ." I said.
"Oh, there she is now." He said pointing behind us to the train.
I turned to see the unicorn from Pinkie's party.
"Vinyl Scratch!" Pinkie screamed and ran over to the DJ and hugged her.
"Oof! What are you doing here, Pinkie?" She asked.
"We're on a top secret mission for Celestia." Pinkie said.
"Pinkie!" We all shouted.
"Oops! Don't tell anyone, Vinyl." Pinkie said.
"Your secrets safe with me." Vinyl said.
She looked over at Sun Blast.
"Sun, it's been a while." She said as she fist bumped the other unicorn.
"Our annual rave last year. Man that one got out of hand fast." Sun said.
"Pssh. You're telling me. Tavi kicked my ass when she found out about it. So many cops." Vinyl said.
"So, shall we?" Sun said pointing to a bus parked in the train station parking lot.
We hopped aboard and headed into the desert.
