The Translation

P.S. Dash, forget everything I told you in that first paragraph. He's got his goons coming for you. He's really mad that you escaped, Dash. Somepony said they told him you were headed to the impossible forest. They're after you. They're probably looking everywhere else for you too, Dash. Go to the unexpected. Don't go to yours or my house. Stay protected, Dash. I couldn't bear to see you get hurt. If anything happens, if you're ever in doubt, fly, Dash. Fly.




"Fillies!", Rainbow shouted over their bickering.

They looked at her.

"Look at this!" They obeyed Rainbow, reading Soarin's letter.

"So he gave YOU a love letter and not US?!", Misty asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, and who puts a note saying for you to get the rainwater?", Spitfire said. "That's just plain rude."

"No, it translates to this--" Rainbow told them the translation of the P.S. note.

"What?!", they demanded.

"How do you know that, anway?!", Spitfire demanded.

"Soarin and I made a secret language in case we're ever in danger. But I have to get somewhere safe. Soarin said that somepony told Sombra I'm in the impossible forest. That must be--"

"The Evergreen Forest," Spitfire finished.

"Exactly."

"Well, if his letter translates to THAT, what do THESE ones translate to?" Rainbow looked over at Misty and saw she was reading through her private letters from Luna and Twilight.

"Hey!", she shouted. "Give me those!" she snatched them from her grasp.

"They don't translate to anything," Rainbow said. "They're just letters."

"Then why are you clinging to them?", Spitfire asked.

Rainbow looked at them, but realized that Spitfire was just trying to make her let go of them so Spitfire could read them. Rainbow kept her grip, but also sighed sadly. "Because they might be the last things I have left of them."
