	It was around 10 o'clock in the morning, and Twilight was waiting for the Ponyville train to come to the station. Spike of course was with her and all, but Twilight just couldn't wait for the train.

"I wonder when the train is coming?" Twilight asked 

"It's suppose to be here anytime now,so just be patient." Spike told her.

And in that moment the train pulled in the station. 

"Spike stay right here, okay?" Twilight said, then walked into a crowd of ponies. "Okay, I just need to find somepony in armor, and...." She looked around and kept walking. 

Then she bumped into something, and fell to the ground. She looked up and saw a pony with golden armor, an orange coat, and a two-toned mane. "And I think I found him." Twilight stated, while blushing.

"Oh, I am so sorry princess." Flash apologized. He put out his hoof and Twilight put her hoof in his.

"It's okay, Flash." Twilight said while getting back up.

"You know my name?" Flash asked in shock.

Twilight just smiled, "It's a long story."

"Oh, alright then." Flash said

"Well, shall we?" Twilight asked

"After you." Flash offered.

They both started walking. When Spike saw Twilight walking toward him, he ran up to her and saw Flash. Spike looked at Twilight, then Flash, and looked at Twilight again. They all started walking again. Spike and Twilight walked beside each other, while Flash walked behind them.

'This is not the kind of impression I wanted to make on the princess.' Flash thought to himself.

"So, you got the guard you wanted, huh?" Spike teased

"No, I didn't." Twilight said, while blushing.

"Oh, come on." Spike smirked, "I know you like him."

"No, I don't." Twilight insisted

"Fine then." Spike said

While Spike and Twilight talked, Flash was looking around him, at Ponyville. Then he looked ahead of, and the castle. The Castle of Friendship.
