   Twilight walked calmly to the room her other friends were in. They were all really worried about Dash, and even Spike had come in to help make sure Fluttershy didn't faint.

   When Twilight opened the door, the friends expected to see Twilight looking even the slightest bit distressed.

   But to their surprise, she was smiling like it was just a normal day with her friends.

   "Guys, before you ask," Twilight whispered, "Rainbow Dash is fine. But right now, she's asleep. So when we go to see her, do not say the word 'magic'.

   The six friends all then walked into the room that Princess Twilight had left Rainbow Dash.

   "Wow, Twilight...you really completed the spell!" Fluttershy whispered excitedly.

   "Well, it was difficult, but I got there in the end." Twilight said, feeling proud of herself. "Come on guys, let's go to the Canterlot Cafe. They have great food there. We'll just leave Rainbow for a few hours or so. I know that sounds a little cruel, but I'll wake her up when the time comes."

   Ten minutes later, and the five ponies (and Spike) were sitting at a fancy table in the amazing Canterlot Cafe. Of course, they were sitting at the best table, because the staff running the cafe had obviously thought ' Princess = Best table', but that didn't really matter for Twilight. Her friends were all happily sipping their drinks ( apart from Applejack, who didn't want to be too 'fancy') and talking together happily. Their orders had been taken and their food was being prepared.

   "While y'all are just eatin' ya food 'fancily'... I'm just gonna eat mine!"

   "Applejack, we're all going to eat politely, not fancily, and besides, you shouldn't be so uncouth around Princess Twilight. Besides, then you would hardly be able to sell anything in Cant-"

   "Rarity, I get the picture."

   Then, a unicorn came out from the kitchen carrying six plates.

   "Order for table number twenty-five."

   "Oh, goodness!" cried Fluttershy. "That's our table! Excuse me, sir! This is table twenty-five!"

   After the delicious meal, the six friends walked home together until they reached the palace. Twilight was wondering whether now was a good time to wake Rainbow Dash up or not. She finally decided. She would. It seemed unfair for Dash to miss out on having fun, especially having fun with her friends.

   As they opened the door, Twilight wondered what to tell Rainbow, mainly because she hadn't seen much herself, but also she didn't want to scare her friend.

   "Ok everypony, I'm going to wake Rainbow Dash up, so just keep quiet. Right... three... two... one... Magic."

   Suddenly, Rainbow Dash's eyes snapped open. She felt worried. How much time had passed? What exactly had Twilight done to her? She wanted answers.

   "Twilight! Guys! What happened? I can't remember anything but a few colourful spirals, but even those are hard to remember..."

   Everypony else just smiled. Rainbow Dash was fine.
