Silver Wings is just a normal pegasus, or so she thought, until one day, she woke up with her wings tipped in a light, flexible, silver alloy along with the rest of her body. When her family sees what she looks like when she comes down to breakfast, they immediately kick her out and she then goes to the only place she can-Doctor X Hoofman, the premier Mutant teacher in all of Equestria. The First Book in the Mutant Ponies series.

It's a bright and sunny morning when Silver Wing came down to breakfast. "Good morning," she happily said to her mother, big sister, baby brother and father.

"Good morning," they reply their voices shaking, "honey, what's wrong with your wings? Why are they silver?"

"It's that damn mutant gene!" screams her father. "Get out of this house! You don't belong here anymore!"

"Can I at least have breakfast first?" He nods and throws two muffins at her face, which she catches. She then flies out with tears in her eyes. She can't help but wonder what her father has against mutants. She does know one thing, though, there's only one place she can go: Doctor X Hoofman at his School for Uniquely Gifted Ponies.

A few minutes later, she touches down in front of the School for Uniquely Gifted Ponies. As she lands, she is greeted by Doctor Hoofman himself. "Hello my dear, welcome to the School for Uniquely Gifted Ponies. Come on in!"

"Thanks," replies Silver as she follows him inside. "What do you even do here with the others like me?" She asks curiously.

"I teach them how to use their powers to their advantage. Your wings and body have become a silver alloy, very stretchy, flexible, and immune to sharp objects. It's actually a very impressive power to receive," replies Doctor Hoofman.

"Well, I thought it was cool too until my dad kicked me out for it. Apparently, he's racist against mutants and I don't know why."

"Well, your home is here know," replies Dr. Hoofman with a smile. "Flame Mistress will show you to your room now." Silver Wings follows another pegasus, a mare with a flaming body, mane, and tail to a nice sized corner of the building and into an empty bedroom.

"Make yourself comfortable," says Flame Mistress to Silver before flying off to her own room up the hall.

"I will," hollers Silver before falling onto her bed in tears. She misses her family but she knows she can't ever return to them now.

A few hours later, Flame Mistress comes back again and grabs Silver Wings for dinner. Once in the dining hall, the two sit down together. "So, what's your actual name?" asks Silver Wings inquisitively.

"It's Sol," replies Flame Mistress with a giggle. "I come from a long lineage of Hispanic ponies from a place known as Caballo Terrace. It's a small Hispanic town in Españamare, not far from Maredrid."

"Well, I used to think I came from a purebred line of Pegasus, but apparently not," sighs Silver Wings.

"Well, it sure is a shame they kicked you out," replies Sol, "normal ponies are scared of us, of Equus superiors." The two then get back to enjoying the hoof made pancakes. A few minutes later, they're approached by another pony, a seemingly normal earth pony stallion.

"The name is Bolt, but my hero name is Speed Demon," replies the stallion, boastingly.

"Stop boasting, your ego is the size of a dragon," replies Sol annoyed.

"Um, nice to meet you," replies Silver Wings, "the name is Silver."

"Well, we're glad you're here," replies Bolt before trotting off to rejoin his buddies at their table.

"Don't mind Bolt, he's just a giant jock with a giant ego," says Sol to Silver as she rolls her eyes at Bolt's actions.

"Oh, okay," replies Silver, "he was a bit overbearing for my tastes anyway." The two then finish up their meals and go and turn in their trays to be washed. The two then and go and join the rest of the students for a group movie night in the school's movie theater. She's just glad to be in a place that she finally belongs.

That evening, Silver takes a seat beside Sol for the movie. A few minutes later, the movie begins. They are thrilled once the title of the movie appears on the screen. The title of this specific movie: The Carefree Tales of a Unicorn Princess named Petunia. "This is my favorite movie," whispers Silver into Sol's ear. Sol smiles and lets out a small giggle. They are so glad that they have this time with all the other students, it's definitely a way to show that she is one of the family now and she couldn't be happier about that.

A few hours later, the movie ends and the students release back to their rooms for the night. Once she's in her room, Silver takes out a picture of her and her family and puts it by her bed before falling asleep for the night. She misses them. Alas, they aren't her family anymore and it's all her father's fault. Maybe, someday, that'll change but not now, not for a very long time. As she sleeps, she begins to dream and the dream soon stops and she returns to thinking about her family and a nightmare of her father soon appears in her mind. She begins to scream in the dream. Hearing the screams, Luna comes into her dream.

"What's wrong?" asks Luna's dream form.

"I'm just still scarred by my father kicking me out for being a mutant. Why is he so racist towards mutant ponies?" replies Silver's dream form.

Luna then claps her hoof on the ground and the two switch over into the dream realm of Silver's father. The two look on at the dream. The dream is a memory of her father's childhood. It's of her father sitting next to a dead pony, actually two dead ponies.

"Who are those dead ponies beside my father?" asks Silver.

"Those are his parents," replies Luna. "They were killed by a mutant pony known as Killion."

"I've heard tales about that pony," replies Silver, "but I never knew he killed my father's parents. That's why he's so racist towards mutant ponies. That explains why he kicked me out." Luna then fades out of Silver's dreams and Silver gets back to more pleasant dreams. Now, she can gladly get back to her initial dream of being accepted back into her family with open hooves. Alas, she knows it is a dream not likely to ever come true.

The next morning, Silver is awoken by Sol and the two head down to breakfast, where they grab their trays of hay bacon, pancakes, and orange juice before taking their seats beside three other mares and a stallion named Crystalline, Aquamare, Light Bright, and Bombzy. The two then happily begin to eat their breakfasts and chat with the others at the table. Silver smiles as she laughs and jokes with her new friends. Even once they're done with breakfast, the six go outside and play frisbee together in the backfield of the school. They play frisbee for hours before being called in for training by Dr. X.

In the training room, Silver tests out her new invulnerable and bouncy silver alloy powers against a whiz of flying rubber-tipped bullets. She uses her wings and quickly deflects the rubber-tipped bullets. This impresses Doctor Hoofman. He then enters the training room and begins personal training with Silver. After several hours of one on one, the Doctor lets Silver get back to her individual and group practice. After five more hours, Silver and the rest head off to lunch on the back deck of the school. As she sits down and enjoys her sandwich and applesauce, she is greeted by a smile from Sol along with a younger mare with a light turquoise coat and matching mane and tail. "Silv, this is my little sister, Aqua. She's a mutant with powers opposite to mine. We're yin and yang, me and her."

"Nice to meet you," replies Silver with a smile. Sol and Aqua then sit down beside Silver and begin to eat their own sandwiches and drinking their apple juice boxes. The three then begin sharing stories, jokes, and laughs. They continue this for hours even back in the group area not long after lunch. They all giggle and joke and talk as they play on the new Wii H1000. They're all having a blast. Silver is glad she has two close friends now at the school. That definitely makes her transition so much easier.

That afternoon, since it is indeed a Friday, Silver goes out for ice cream with Sol and Aqua. At the ice cream shop, the three happily enjoy their cones. Sol got her favorite, Strawberry. Aqua got her favorite, Blueberry. And Silver got her favorite, cookie dough chocolate chunk. As they lick their cones, they laugh, joke, and just chatter in general. The three are glad they're friends. After ice cream, the three head to the local arcade, where they spend hours playing the old games like Robot Mayhem, Pacman, and Invaders of the Grave. As they play, they can't help but laugh and smile because of how much fun they're having. Eventually, though, they get tired of the outing and return to the school to play frisbee in the backfield along with the rest of the students.

Meanwhile, back at Silver's old home, her family is falling apart. Her brother and sister won't even go in the same room as their father and her mother won't even talk to him. Silver has no idea that any of this is going on. Her family misses her, well with the exception of her father, and she has no idea. She's just happily playing frisbee without a single care in the world and a smile on her face. "Yippee!" she squeals as she flies up and catches the disc before sending it speeding towards Bolt at top speed, who uses a running wall maneuver to catch it. He then tosses it over to Sol who then tosses it across the way to her sister Aqua. Aqua then proceeds to toss it to Crystalline, who actually shies away from it and turns into crystal, therefore, making Rhinus able to catch it. The giant frisbee game continues for hours before they're all called inside for dinner, this time of haysteak and mashed potatoes, one of their personal favorite meals they eat at the school.

As she's eating, a pony in a blue suit and hat brings a letter over to Silver. Silver opens it and begins to read it quietly to herself. "Hey big sis," she reads, "home is a mess. Little brother and I are too scared to even go near father after what he did to you and he and mom aren't even speaking. When I got home from school today, I saw divorce papers on mom's desk. I'm scared Silver. I don't know what to do. Your loving sister, Eloise." Silver's face drops in shock, fear, and dread. She knew what her father said was going to get some looks but she never thought it would possibly cause her parents to get a divorce. Alas, she knows her mother has to do what's best for her siblings and what's best for them is divorcing their father on the grounds that he is racist towards other ponies.

The next day, Silver goes back to her home to check up on her siblings and mother to see if they're okay. As soon as she lands, she flies inside. "Are y'all okay?" she asks with a concerned look on her face.

"We're fine," replies her mother, "your father left late last night. He's not coming back. How's school going? Is Doctor Hoofman nice?"

"School is going great, I love it there! Doctor Hoofman is one of the sweetest stallions I've ever met!"

"That's good," replies her mother. Her mother then makes her a breakfast and sends her back on her way.

Back at the school later that morning, Silver is sitting in the common area chatting with Sol, Aqua, and Crystal. "So your dad left? Just straight up left?" inquires Sol.

"Yep," replies Silver. "And I'm so glad! I can finally go back home every Saturday to see my family!"

The three then continue to chat about different things until it's time to go to the training room for the morning's training session. In their training session, Silver uses her silver alloy elasticity in her favor as she deflects ten bullets towards a dummy on the other side of the room. Sol then sends a heat blast towards Silver and Silver deflects that with her wings. She then flies around Aqua's water attack. The three are glad that they get to train together. That can only mean one thing: they're the few students Hoofman trusts enough to not battle anyone else because they don't need to. They're already at the peak of their abilities. A few hours later, the three go off and grab lunch before going outside to play some frisbee with some of the other students. Everything is perfect. Everything is continuing to go uphill for Silver and she wouldn't have it any other way.

Later that day, after training wraps up, the four friends go off to the Centerville Carnival. At the carnival, the four enjoy funnel cakes, ice cream cones, and all the coasters that are set up around the grounds. As they ride the fastest coaster at the Carnival, they can't help but smile and laugh. A few minutes later, the coaster comes to an end and they immediately hop right back on it and ride it again ten times over.

Once they're done on that one coaster, they eat dinner at the Carnival and then hop onto the rest of the coasters and ride each of them five to ten times over as well. The four are glad they get to spend the day together. That night, back at the school, the four share a group hug before going to their rooms for the night. In her room, Silver Wings stares at the ceiling as she hums an old lullaby her mother used to sing to her to herself. She then begins to sing a little bit of it. "You are my little darling girl. You're special and unique. You will always have a place in my heart and in my mind. No matter what happens. I'll always be there for you." She begins to cry. "Tomorrow," she sighs to herself, "I will try to find time to go home and visit momma, sis, and baby brother. I miss them so much." She continues to cry for the rest of the night until she finally cried herself asleep. She may be sad but she's also extremely tired.

The next morning, Silver takes to the skies and a few minutes later, she touches down in front of her home. She then opens the door where she finds her mother baking pancakes. Silver sits down and her mother gladly hands her a plate. "I'm glad to see you, sweetie," she says with a smile.

"I'm glad to see you, too, momma," replies Silver as she stuffs her face with pancakes. She then goes off to a movie with her family that morning before finally returning to the school that afternoon just in time for training practice. She's just glad she got to spend the day with her family. It truly meant the world to her.

A few days later, Silver Wings gets another letter from her sister. As she sits at breakfast that morning, she happily reads it with a smile on her face. "Dear Silver," she reads, "everything is great here at home now that dad is gone. Mom turned in the divorce papers at the end of last week. We don't have to see him anymore. When are you coming back for your next visit? Little brother and I miss you. Please write me back whenever." She then puts the letter down by her bedside and goes to her desk and writes a response letter to her sister. As she writes the letter, she can't help but smile. She writes about how life's been going at the school, how she's made several new friends, among other things. Once she's done writing it, she seals it, stamps it, and walks it down to the school's post office where she puts it in the box. The next morning, it's one its way to her family. She can't wait for them to receive it.

Meanwhile, a few hours later, after breakfast, and at training, Silver can't help but think about the letter as she does dueling practice with Sol and Aqua. Eventually, she gets her head back about her and perfects her extra hour of training that Doctor Hoofman made her do. Once she's finally done with training for the day, she finally returns to her room for some much-needed rest. She plops down on her bed and after hours of staring at the ceiling, she falls asleep and ends up napping until lunchtime when she is awoken by Sol and Aqua. The three then go and find Crystalline before going outside to enjoy their lunch together.

As they eat their lunches, the four chit chat back and forth about all sorts of things including their families and friends they left behind in order to attend the school. She's glad that her friends are actually from boats similar to her own. Crystalline's parents didn't approve of her powers and kicked her out of the house when she was ten years old. Sol and Aqua's parents kicked them out when they were around fifteen and twelve years old when their powers first arose. Silver just smiles as she embraces all her friends in a hug. The four then go off and throw away their trash before going off and swinging together on the swings for a little bit before their afternoon session of training.

The next week, Silver Wings along with five or six of the other students go out on her first mission with Doctor Hoofman. She's thrilled. "Oh boy! Oh boy! Oh boy! I've been waiting for this day for forever!" squeals Silver Wings.

"Chill out," says Bolt rolling his eyes.

"Yeah, you don't want to go in too excited," adds Sol.

Silver nods and begins to take deep breaths in and out which calms her down and she soon collects herself. A few minutes later, the plane lands and the students take to the ground to face off against their first major foe, a pony named Sir Sinister. As Hoofman holds off Sinister's psychic attacks, the others come in and attack him from every side, overwhelming him. Eventually, the doctor is able to get a psychic virus in his head disabling him. They then toe him off and toss him into the MIP, Mutant Inmate Prison. Hoofman smiles as he congratulates the students on their first major mission. "With fighting chops like that, be ready for another mission in two weeks time, maybe sooner," says the doctor with a smile. A few hours later, they arrive back at the school and go outside and let go as they play frisbee together as friends while Doctor Hoofman watches from the porch as he sips his hot coffee. This is a safe haven and hero school for them and that is exactly what he is observing right now, the safe haven part of it, that is.

A few minutes later, the doctor retreats back inside and looks at an old picture of his wife. "Oh Angela, you would've loved it here, here with me. I miss you. Why did you have to die? Why did cancer have to take your life? Why did it have to take you away from me?" A few tears begin to form in his eyes but he holds them back. He then rolls off to his room and grabs a book before returning back outside to watch his students play frisbee together. Little does he know his wife was actually saved from her cancer by the Revival Program.

The next morning while at breakfast, Silver is eating her pancakes when she is given a letter. It's another one from her sister. As she reads it, she begins to smile. Thanksgiving is in a few weeks time now, she'll be able to spend a whole week or two with them then and she can't wait. For now, though, it's time for her to finish breakfast so she can head off to morning training along with everypony else.

Once breakfast wraps up, she flies off towards the training room alongside all her new friends and once they're in the room, Doctor Hoofman pairs them off in dueling sessions once again. Silver he pairs against Crystalline for the first time and the two couldn't be more excited. They duel for hours before the first swap comes around. After an hour, Crystalline swaps out with Sol and a few hours later, Sol swaps out with her sister Aqua. This happens for most of the training. He's teaching them to be ready for the unexpected and how to think on their toes when they are confronted by more than just one enemy a day. The doctor watches on with a smile of content on his face. His students are amazing, talented, and soon they'll be out on the mission grounds a few rooms over to train for their next mission together. The students don't know this so it's going to be a surprise, but definitely a surprise worth waiting for.

A few hours later, the doctor leads them to the mission grounds where he simulates their first mission and gives them a premise on how to go about it. Taking his advice and suggestions, they head in eager and ready to go. They all end up doing very well in the simulation. Silver uses her defense mechanisms she's been taught. Bolt uses his speed. Sol and Aqua use their powers. Crystalline uses her crystals. They all work together in tandem. The doctor can't help but be satisfied with their training in the mission grounds and he's definitely going to use it more with them moving forward.

A few hours later, Silver and the others exit the training room and mission simulation and head off to their rooms for some good quality me time. In her room, Silver flies up to a shelf and pulls down her sketchbook and a pencil and her nice set of colored pencils. She then flies down and places them on her bed and begins to draw. She sits there and draws for hours on end as she contently listens to some calming violin and cello music. She's glad to finally have some time to herself to do some drawing. She has no idea how long it has been since she last pulled down her sketchbook and just took the time to draw. She was going to use this sketchbook to get into the best art school in Equestria, but now, that dream has gone out the window since she has no way to pay for it now that she's been disowned by her father.

Around 4:30, Sol and Aqua come and grab Silver and the three head off to the dining hall to join the rest of the students for dinner. At dinner, Silver shows her sketchbook to Sol, Aqua, and the others. "Wow!" says Sol impressed. "You should pursue this!"

"I was going too before I got disowned by my father. He was going to pay for me to go to art school and now that's not going to happen," sighs Silver.

"See if Doctor Hoofman will cover it for you," says Sol. "He paid for Grandeur to go to college to pursue fashion."

"Yeah, you're right, I guess I'll go ask him," replies Silver, "but maybe after dinner 'cause I'm hungry."

After enjoying a nice dinner, Silver goes off to talk with Doctor Hoofman. In his office, she shows him her sketchbook then raises the big question. "Doctor Hoofman," says Silver trying to keep her nerves together, "can you give me the money to go to art school and pursue this?"

"Of course," says Doctor Hoofman, looking at the sketchbook then looking back up at Silver, "I'll gladly give you the money. After all, I too can agree that you need to pursue this once you leave here."

"Thank you, sir," says Silver as she takes her sketchbook and leaves his office. "You have no idea how much your support means to me!" Once outside, Silver squeals as she flies back towards her room. In a year time, she'll be off to art school and it's all thanks to Doctor Hoofman and his support.

A year later, Silver packs up and heads off to art school. Once she's there, her artistic talent begins to thrive and her teachers don't even care that she's not like normal ponies. All they care about is her art and that's what she absolutely loves. She finally found a place where she belongs and where she isn't shunned for being a mutant. On all her art assignments, she gets As and Bs and that always puts a smile on her face. Even so, she still keeps in touch with Doctor Hoofman's school. She writes him or Sol and Aqua every weekend or whenever she has free time. She goes back over there for the holidays, Christmas, Thanksgiving, any holiday really. She's glad they're still part of her life even if it is a smaller part than it used to be.

A few minutes later, Silver's teacher walks up behind her and compliments her on her work. "Great job, Silver," says her teacher, Miss Gloria Diadem. "Keep it up."

"Thanks," replies Silver with a smile. Miss Gloria then walks off to view another student's work. She then does that for the rest of the class.

Two hours later, the class draws to a close and Silver goes off to her dorm room, where she plops down her bag and plops down on her bed. There, she grabs her personal sketchbook and begins to sketch in it. She happily sits there and hums a song as she sketches a picture of her puppy that she used to have as a child. She then continues to sketch pictures of her puppy for the rest of the afternoon until dinner.

At dinner that night, Silver sits down with her new friends Kiki and Nikki. As she sits with them, the three chatter about their days after every other bite of mashed potatoes. The three are glad they're friends and Silver even shows them the drawings of her puppy, which they are very impressed by. As they compliment her pictures, Silver's face just glows with a great big smile. She's so lucky. She's in her dream school, she has the best of friends, no one cares that she's a mutant, nothing could possibly go wrong.

The next day, Silver gets a surprise visit from Doctor Hoofman. She then goes and gladly joins him at the coffee shop up the street. "Hey Doc, what are you doing here?" asks Silver as she takes a sip of coffee. "Why did you come to my art school? What do you want to talk to me about?"

"I'm here because I want to talk with you," says Doctor Hoofman, "about your future of being a superhero."

"I still want to be part of the team, even though I'm no longer at the school," responds Silver.

"And you can be," responds the Doctor. "It's just..."

"It's just what?" responds Silver.

"It's just, fine, we need your help. There's a group of villains overrunning downtown Colt Town. You wanna come lend us a hoof?"

"Do I ever?" responds Silver. She then flies off, gets into her costume, and flies out ahead of the Doctor. They soon arrive where the others are busy fighting the bad guys and immediately jump in on the action. Silver uses silver pellets that she shoots out the tips of her wings to disarm one of the villains named Maximo. Sol looks at her stunned.

"When did you learn that snazzy new trick?" she asks.

"Oh, that, I've been working on that trick for months," responds Silver with a smile.

"Cool," responds Sol as she shoots a beam of fire at another one of the bad guys, the one known as the Dark Mask. Aqua soon comes in and knocks out the guy next to Dark Mask, Hexon, a pony that controls shapes and holograms.

After several hours of knocking out the bad guys, they finally get them all rounded up and hand them over to the cops. Silver then shares a group hug with the team and flies back to art school and flies into her anatomy drawing class right before the bell rings. "Right on time Miss Silver," says her professor, Miss Winter Day. "I was about to state the announcement and the assignment." Miss Silver then explains the assignment. The assignment is to draw the anatomy of a creature other than one of the three pony tribes. She then shares the announcement. "I'm engaged!" she excitedly tells her students. She then tells them to get to work while she sits back and reads a book at her desk.

Silver then plugs in her music and begins to draw. By the end of the class, she has five hours of work drawn up and ready to show. Tomorrow, she'll continue her work on the drawing. Her drawing is of the anatomy of a griffon, her all-time favorite creature. Miss Winter Day then looks up at Silver with a smile. "Great work today, Silv," she says.

"Thanks, Miss Day and congratulations on the engagement," responds Silver as she flies out of the art room.

"Thanks!" yells Miss Day down the hall after her. "I like her," she sighs as she shakes her head, "now if only she'd learn to slow down and learn not to fly out of my room because she always leaves a mess as she leaves." Miss Day shakes her head then reenters the classroom and begins to clean up Silver's mess. Next time it happens, she decided, Silver will be the one to clean up her own mess.

Now back in her bedroom for three hours before dinner, Silver pulls out her cell phone and calls her mother. Her mother then immediately picks up. "Hey doll, how is art school treating you? How's all your hero business with Doctor Hoofman going? Your sisters and I miss you so much."

"It's going great mom. Thanks. I love art school. I love being on the Mutant Ponies team. Right now in my anatomy drawing class, I'm drawing griffon anatomy. You know how much I love griffons."

"I sure do," replies her mother with a smile.

"Our school has the art display show coming up and parents are welcome to come and view their children's artwork. I'd love if you'd come."

"Of course, I'll come," responds her mother, "I'd love too."

"Okay," responds Silver. "And bring sis with you. I'll see you in three weeks! Bye!"

"Bye!" responds her mother. "I'll see you then and I'll bring your sister with me. See you in three. Bye." She then hangs up. Silver then goes over to her shelf and pulls out her sketchbook and her colored pencils. She then sits down and does some drawing until dinner rolls around. She can't wait until her mother and sister come see the art display show in three weeks. She really and truly can't. She also has a feeling Doctor Hoofman will show up to it, even without her invite.

Three weeks later, Silver's mom and sister show up to the school for th student art show along with Doctor Hoofman. As soon as Silver sees her family and former teacher, she runs over and embraces them in a great big hug. She then takes them to her part of the art gallery and shows them her work. "These are amazing!" Squeals her sister with a smile.

"Yes, I'm very impressed," agrees her mother with a smile. She gives Silv another hug. "And I'm so proud of you."

"Thanks," says Silv with a blush.

A few minutes later, Miss Day walks over with her fiancé. "Hey Silver, my prized pupil," says Miss Winter Day with a smile. "I'd like you to meet my fiancé, Coal Black."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Coal Black," says Silver with a smile.

"And you," responds Coal as he shakes Silver's hoof before walking off with Miss Day once again. Silver then gets back to showing her art gallery to her family and former teacher, Dr. Hoofman.

After a few hours time, she show draws to a close for the day and Silver goes out to lunch with her family while Dr. Hoofman returns to the school. After all, he has other students to tend to and technically Silver is no longer his student at the moment. As for Silver, she happily enjoys lunch with her mother and sister. "I enjoy it here oh so much," says Silver as she shoves a bite of hay burger in her mouth. "All my teachers are oh so sweet. I couldn't be happier!"

"And I'm glad," responds her mother with a smile.

"As am I," adds her sister. Silver lets off a little blush. They then hang out for the rest of the day before her family hops back on their train ride home. Silver, on the other hoof, can't help but agree this has been the best day of her life, aside from her sister's birth, so far.

Three years later, Silver graduates and returns to Hoofman's school to help as a trainer for the other mutants, including her friends. Dr. Hoofman, Aqua, and Sol especially are glad to have her back.

"Hey," says Doctor Hoofman after training comes to an end for the morning. "I'm glad to have you back."

"Yeah, and I'm glad to be back," responds Silver. She then flies out of the room to catch up with Sol and Aqua. The three girls then head out to the amusement park to play the carnival games and ride the roller coasters.

"So, what was the school like while I was away?" Asks Silver as she throws a ball with her wing at the target and hits.

"It's been good, muy bueno," says Sol with a smile. "But at the same time, we've been lonely since you left, me and sis."

"Well, sorry for that," Silver responds with a frown. "I didn't mean to abandon y'all."

"Well, we forgive you," respond the sisters. "We're just glad you're back now."

"Thanks," responds Silver. "I'm glad to be back." The three then get back to playing the target game. After five balls each, Sol manages to win and gets a teddy bear which she gives to her little sister. They then all go and play a few more games before going and hopping on the roller coaster.

While on the coaster, the three scream and laugh as they go through the loops, twists, and turns. A few moments later, the coaster comes to a stop at the top and drops them through it backwards and goes through a second time. The coaster then finishes fully and the three get off. They then go get lunch before returning to the school for night time training.

That evening at the school after dinner, training begins once more and ends an hour later. Everypony then goes off to their rooms and Silver goes and hangs out in Sol and Aqua's room. There, the three catch up before lights out time. Around that time, Silver returns home to her apartment and falls fast asleep. All the while, she can't help but think 'it's good to be back'.
