Sofia walks outside of the castle where she sees a sky blue Pegasus with a rainbow mane and tail.

“Rainbow Dash.” Sofia cheered. “Nice to see you.”

“What’s up, Sofia?” Rainbow Dash replied. “Climb on. Next stop: Cloudsdale!”

Sofia climbs on Rainbow’s back, and they fly up into the air. Soon, they reached a city on clouds as Sofia’s amulet turns white. Rainbow lands and Sofia jumps off. The daredevil pony got surprised. “Wow! Your amulet can do anything!”

“I guess you’re right.” Sofia replied. “It even lets me float on these clouds. So, what’s going on here?”

Rainbow Dash gives Sofia some information. “Starlight gave me the heads up on your letter search. I learned that the letters F, G, H, and I are spotted here in Cloudsdale. Good luck.”

As Rainbow Dash leaves, Sofia prepares for her search. She was just walking along when she heard voices arguing. The voices belonged to Hoops, Dumbbell, and Score. They were the three Pegasi who used to cause trouble for Rainbow Dash.

“Hey, fellas.” Sofia called out as she approached them.

Hoops, the light brown Pegasus, saw her coming. “Princess Sofia! Never thought you would help us.”

“I’m always ready to help others, despite their past. What’s the matter?”

“This crazy critter came out of nowhere and started to jump all over us.” Score, the gray Pegasus, explained.

All of a sudden, Dumbbell, the dark brown Pegasus, started to swat a strange red beast. Sofia saw what he was going after. She quickly grabbed the creature. And, it changed into an alphabet better.

“A letter F?” Dumbbell blurted out. “That’s new.”

Sofia places the F into the bag and headed out. Score waved goodbye. “Thanks for the help, Sofia!”

Suddenly, Sofia hears commotion coming from a large stadium. Hoops approached the princess and explained about the stadium. “That’s the Cloudeseum. Sounds like there’s trouble. I’ll take you there.”

Sofia got on his back and they took off for the Cloudeseum. Inside, the athletes we’re going after a skating green creature. Ms. Harshwinny, who makes decisions on sporting events, was getting annoyed. She saw Sofia and Hoops entering the Cloudeseum.

“Princess Sofia!” Harshwinny called out. “This is unexpected.”

“I heard there was trouble.” Sofia replied.

The princess from Enchantia saw the green creature and rushed off to catch it. “Pardon me. I’ll be back.”

The creature was skating away from the athletes, but Sofia hid out of sight. When the creature got close, she grabbed it quick. Harshwinny came along as the green creature changed into it’s real form.

“My goodness.” Harshwinny said. “That’s a letter G.”

“That’s right.” Sofia replied as she places the G in her bag. “And, that’s one more letter out of the way.”

Sofia heads out of the Cloudeseum where Hoops is waiting. Harshwinny watched her leave. “Thank you, Princess Sofia.”

Suddenly, Sofia sees some clouds coming out of a tall building.

“What’s that place, Hoops?” Sofia asked.

“That’s the Weather Factory.” Hoops answered. “Looks like something’s wrong.”

“Probably another alphabet letter. Let’s go!”

The two figures zipped over to the Weather Factory. Sofia approached the entrance when a light gray security guard pony called to her. “Are you Princess Sofia?”

“That I am.” The young princess replied.

“I was told you’re looking for animated alphabet letters. I think there’s one in here.”

Sofia rushes into the factory. She sees a purple creature hopping on the controls. Acting swiftly, she sneaks up and grabbed the creature. The guard sees the creature transforms into it’s real self. “So, that beast turned out to be a letter H.”

“That’s right.” Sofia replied as she places the H in her bag. “And now, this place is back to normal.”

As she left the factory, she sees a yellow pegasus with a red and marigold mane and tail, and wearing a military uniform. She recognizes the Pegasus. “Captain Spitfire. This is a surprise.”

Spitfire explains her reason for approaching the young princess. “I’ve been watching you rounding up the letters F, G, and H. We of the Wonderbolts can use your help.”

Spitfire brought Sofia to Wonderbolt Headquarters. There, the Wonderbolts stand at attention.

“Listen up!” Spitfire commanded. “Princess Sofia is brought here to collar that beast. She thinks it’s a letter of the alphabet.”

“I heard of that.” Fleetfoot interrupted. “Those letters are for the School of Friendship. Right?”

“That’s right.” Sofia answered. “Your leader told me that one of them is here.”

Soarin’ Skies stepped forward. “Come with me, Miss Sofia.”

Soarin’ lead Sofia to the mess hall. There, he explained the situation. “We were having a meal when this sky blue stick critter caused trouble.”

“Go back to the others.” Sofia suggested. “I’ll handle it from here.”

As Soarin’ left the mess hall, Sofia spotted what he was talking about. She saw a stick creature laying down on a plate. Probably tired from bouncing around. Sofia sneaked up to the critter. A minute later, she exits the mess hall with the Wonderbolts seeing her exit.

“Did you find the critter?” Spitfire asked.

“Yes, I did.” Sofia answered. “But, this is what it really is.”

Sofia holds up the object. Misty Fly recognizes it. “Wow! That’s the letter I!”

“That’s right.” Sofia replied.

As she puts the I in the bag, Starlight and her letter board appeared. “Hi, Sofia. Time to get those letters back to the board.”

Sofia opens her bag. Starlight uses her magic to transfer F, G, H, and I to the letter board with the other letters.

“Somepony will be coming by to pick you up.” Starlight said. “See you later.”

Starlight and the board vanished. Spitfire approached the princess. “You’ve been busy. Haven’t you, Sofia?”

The young princess replied to Spitfire. “More than you think.”
