The Gem Of Truthby Sharknerd4ChaptersLightning Dust ReturnsHomesickSonic LightningboomOn The RoadZecora's AssistantLightning Dust Returns"Woody!" Rainbow Dash, my sister, called. "Coming!" I said. I walked outside as my bare feet hit the soft cloud. I saw Rainbow Dash and my other sister, Frost. "Hi Rainbow," I said drowsily "hi Frost." "Why so glum?" asked Frost. "Nothing," I said. But it wasn't nothing. It was the fact that I haven't gotten my Wonderbolt Academy letter. I didn't think I got in. Frost got her's, but I haven't. "Dash, can I go to the town square with Time Loop?" I asked. Dash nodded. "Frost, you wanna go with her?" asked Dash. Frost shook her head. "I'm going to stay here and finish my essay," she said. I nodded and flew down to Ponyville. Yes, I live on a cloud over Ponyville. I saw Time Loop practicing her magic with Treble Clef. "Treble!" I said "I didn't know you were going to be here." "Me neither," said Time Loop, setting the flower pot down. I kicked my feet because they couldn't touch the ground. Treble started ponytailing her lavender hair. "Need any help?" I asked. "No," Treble said. I saw a dark cloud in the sky. "What the?" I said. "Lightning Dust!" Treble said. Time Loop gasped. "No!" she shouted. "Yes!" Lightning Dust said. She cackled. "Is she....discorded?" Time asked, twisting a bit of her gold and black hair. "I can't tell," I said. "Nope," Treble Clef said "she's just being a-" We were interrupted by lightning and snow. "Wait, lightning and snow?" Time said. "I have no idea," I said "I knew Lightning Dust wasn't a great person but this is just......." "I know," Rainbow Dash said. "Dash!" We all said. Frost was behind, flapping her pale blue wings. "You're gonna get someone killed!" Dash shouted. "Like who? All the smart Pegasi are in Cloudsdale or at the Wonderbolt Academy," Lightning shouted back. "Hey!" Frost and I said. I saw Lightning start to guide the lightning at Derpy. "Derpy!" Treble shouted. She ran over to try to protect her sister. "What?" Derpy said. "Awww! The unicorn can protect her sister!" Lightning said sarcastically. "Hey Lightning!" Time shouted, the wind whipping her hair all around "bet you didn't know I could do this!" Time Loop directed her power at the clouds. They moved around and blocked off Lightning. "Time Loop you did it!" I said, hugging her. Time was faint and tired. "Time Loop!" shouted Treble Clef. "Wood Wind, what happened?" she asked. "She used most of her power to stop Lightning," I said. "I wonder why Lightning is acting like this. She's not evil," Rainbow Dash said. "I know who'll know what's going on!" Treble Clef said "Zecora!" "Yes!" I said. We walked to her home in the forest. We explained what happened. "I don't know how this could be happening," Zecora said "but there is a first time for everything." "What do you mean?" Dash asked. "I have never seen this before," Zecora answered "Not even in the days of your." "Well," I said "that's just great." "Do not be sad," Zecora said "For I may have just the reason to be glad!" "What is it?" Time Loop asked (Zecora gave her some stuff to make her better). "I have a task you you to do," she said "You must find the gem of truth." "The gem of what now?" I asked. "The Gem of Truth is what I say," Zecora said "it is in the Crystal Bay." "Crystal Bay?" I repeated. "It's a little beyond the forest," Rainbow Dash said "but it takes FOREVER to get there. Even for me." "Then we have to leave to the Crystal Bay....today!" I said. Zecora nodded. We started to get going after we packed our bags, and I noticed Dash wasn't here. "Dash?" I mumbled. "I'm not coming," she said "I need to teach Alicorn Twilight how to fly!" Author's Note I hope you love. HomesickThe words of the letter rang in my head. Thoughts flowed through my head like a river. I started to think about other stuff. Like Dash and I's musical rainboom. That was fun. Rainbow Dash! I couldn't sleep after thinking of her. I walked outside of my tent and held my knees against my chest. "Bad dreams?" Treble asked. I nodded. "You'll be fine," Treble said. "No I won't!" I shouted "I miss Rainbow." I wrapped myself in my dark brown wings. I wiped away a tear with them. "We can call her," Treble suggested. I picked my head up. "You brought your phone?" Treble nodded. I grabbed it out of her hand and dialed Rainbow's number. "Hello?" Rainbow asked. "Dash!" I shouted. "Wind! It's so good to hear you!" "You too! How's Alicorn Twilight's training going?" "Oh she's doing crappy." I giggled "Yea, I guys we're not all flyers." "I guess so. Sorry, Wood Wind, I gotta go." "Love you, bye." "Bye." "Happy now?" Treble asked. I nodded. "Thanks Treble," I said. "Don't mention it," said Treble. Who knew one phone call could cure someone of homesickness! Sonic LightningboomCrack! Boom! I poked my head out of my tent. "Sonic..." I started "Lightning..." Time Loop continued. "Boom," Treble said. She glanced at Time and I. "We have to hurry our butts," she said. "You're right," Time Loop said, diving into her tent. "The Doctor gave me this book," she said, sliding the book over to Treble. "Derpy sure did good dating him," Treble muttered. She licked her fingers and flipped through the pages. "Here!" she yelled "Sonic Lightningboom! Kinda like the Sonic Rainboom, which can only be preformed by Rainbow Dash. The Lightningboom has only been preformed by Spark Flyer, one of the first Wonderbolts." "But Lightning Dust just proved that wrong," I said. "Yes," Time said "we know that." I rolled my eyes. Treble closed the book. "Let's do this," she said "Woody, how many people can you carry on your back?" I raised an eyebrow. Treble and Time looked at each other. I sighed. "I'm gonna have to carry you guys, aren't I?" I asked. Time Loop and Treble Clef nodded. "Grab a wing," I said. They did so and I shot up in the sky, leaving a trail of music notes behind me. "Not...so....fast!" Time Loop shouted. I rolled my eyes and sped up. I dropped them off near an oasis. "I think this is where Zecora said the gem was," Time Loop said. "Whatever," Treble responded "let's do this." On The RoadWe started walking to the bay with the map Zecora gave us. "Wood Wind!" I heard someone called. I turned around and saw Frost. She flew into me. "What is it Frost?" I asked. I saw a black spot on her wing. "Frost, what happened?" Trebled asked. "It was Lightning Dust!" she screamed in between pants. "Lightning Dust is back?" Time Loop said. Frost nodded, her pale blue and white hair bounced on her shoulders. "Oh no," I said. I saw a bit of blood on Frost's wing. "Treble, where's the first aid kit?" I asked. Treble put some water on her wing and cleaned it. I put a bandage on it. "Why'd you come, anyway?" I asked. "You forgot this," said Frost, handing me my journal. "Thanks," I said "now go back with Rainbow." I flew in the air. "How long's it gonna take?" Treble asked. I shrugged "Few days." "Well that's crap," said Time Loop. "Yea," Treble said "it is, big time." We stopped after a while to eat. "What do we got?" I asked. "I've got a muffin and a muffin," Treble said. We laughed. "Derpy packed?" I asked. Treble Clef nodded. "I've got.....SANDWICHES!" Time Loop yelled. "Oo yeah food!" I said. We ate our sandwiches and talked. "What do you think it looks like?" Time asked. "Pink and sparkly," Treble answered. "I don't know," I said "Truth Gemmy." We laughed. Treble stood up. "Okay, we should set up camp," she said. "Good idea," Time Loop said, taking a bite out of her sandwich. We put the food in one bag and set up our tents. "Treble where's my......found it!" Time Loop called. I smiled and rolled my eyes.I put on my pajamas. "Nighty-night," Treble Clef said. "Night Treble," Time Loop said "Night Wind." "Night guys," I said. I closed my eyes and went to sleep. I dreamed about Rainbow and Frost. "Dash! Frost!" I called out. "Did you hear that?" Dash asked. Frost shook her head. I saw I wasn't on the same cloud. I tried to fly up to them. "Wait, what?" I said. It was like my feet were glue to the ground. Wait, they WERE stuck to the ground. "Dash! Frost!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. Frost turned around, but then looked back at Dash. I felt hot tears run down my face. "Girls! Girls!" I shouted "Girls......" I woke up and put my hand on my head. I breathed a sigh of relief. "Wood! Are you okay?" I heard Treble say. "Yeah, fine," I said "just a bad dream." Zecora's AssistantI woke up the next morning to a pounding at my tent. "Who's there?" I called. All I heard was breathing. Heavy breathing. "Time is that you?" I asked. Still just breathing. "Who are you?" I called "Tell me!" Nothing but breathing. I poked my head out and I only saw Treble Clef and Time Loop up against their tents. "What the?" I said. Time Loop pointed to a bright thing of light. "Who the?" I said. "Silence," it said finally. "And you are?" I asked. No response. "Who are you!?!" I demand. "I am Flame," it said. "Pretty," I said "Why are you here?" "Zecora sent me," Flame said. "You know Zecora?" Time Loop asked. Flame nodded. "I'm her assistant," she said. "Zecora has an assistant?" Time Loop said. Flame nodded "Yes." "Since when?" Treble asked. "Since um, a few months I guess," said Flame. I saw she had a backpack. "What's in there?" I asked. "Just, stuff," Flame said. "What's in the bag?" Time Loop asked, sternly. "Nothing!" Flame shouted. "If it's nothing, why do you have it?" Treble Clef asked. "Well, it's not NOTHING," said Flame. "Tell us what's in it!" I commanded. "Fine!" Flame shouted. She pulled out a water bottle and a journal. "There's something else in there," Time Loop said. "Give us the bag," Treble said. Flame tossed us the bag. I dug through it. It was a letter from Lightning Dust. Dear Lightning, Run. Don't stay in Cloudsdale or Ponyville. Run, the amulet is corrupting you. Run, for pony's sake, run. And don't stop running. Ever. You're a really big threat. It's been days, but in a few more, you'll be crazy. And evil. Lightning Dust, run. Signed, Lightning Dust "She sent a letter to herself?" I said. Flame nodded. "Why?" I asked. Flame shrugged. "I have to go, give me the letter," Flame said. "Bye, Flame," We said when the young girl left. I noticed that Time had written the words down from the letter. Or did she steal it?
