The door opened and the 4 ponies were greeted by a zebra with gold rings in her ear, on her neck and on her legs. Her turquoise eyes seemed to stare into Rumble's soul. "Do my eyes play tricks on me? Twilight, and who must these be?" The zebra asked.

"Zecora, this is Rumble, Flitter, and Cloudchaser. Rumble claims he has been cursed and is now a filly. Can you help him? " Twilight asked Zecora.

"Well, it must be. But you will have to wait, and see. For a curse, a cure is needed. For a cure, time needs to be succeeded." The zebra rhymed as she examined him.

"W-what does t-that mean?" Rumble asked as he sniffed from his earlier sobbing.

"It means that it will take her some time to craft up a cure from what she has." Twilight explained as Zecora went inside and searched through her stuff.

"She is correct, for what I do. I may be able to conjure up a brew. If I can find this one rare flower, I can make a brew in less then an hour. It is gold with many blue dots, It also grows in many kinds of knots." Zecora said as she found the flower she was looking for. "This is it, this flower is good. Come back later, if you could." She waved as they walked away from the hut and they teleported back to Rumble's house. Just then the doorbell rang as Rumble ran and hid in his room. Flitter opened the door to see a black coated pegasus at the door.

"Hello, Thunderlane. Rumble is upstairs, and he has a problem right now." Flitter said as Thunderlane nodded his thanks and went upstairs into his brother's room.

"Rumble? Where are you?" He asked then he saw Rumble's back. "There you are! Flitter said you had a prob-" His jaw dropped as Rumble turned around to face Thunderlane and he saw Rumble's face "Y-you're a filly?!" Thunderlane exclaimed.

"T-thank you c-captain o-obvious!" Rumble sniffed again as Thunderlane realized Rumble was crying recently and he tried to comfort Rumble.

"How did this happen?" Thunderlane asked, already knowing he was in for a long story.


After about 10 minutes Rumble ended his story, leaving Thunderlane confused, but before he could do anything Cloudchaser came in. "Rumble. Zecora called and said that she crafted a cure." Cloudchaser said as she left the room with Rumble following close behind. When he got downstairs Twilight teleported them back to the hut and she knocked on the door again.

"Hello Zecora. You called and said that you made a cure for Rumble's curse. May we have it?" Twilight asked the zebra.

"Yes, I crafted the perfect cure, for the the way I made it, it is surely pure." The zebra said as she handed Rumble the flask. "Drink up now, for it may be to late. Your cure may be at stake! If You don't drink it now, You will always be how you look now." She rhymed as he drank the cure quickly.

"Huh. I don't feel any diff-" He was interrupted as a gold and blue explosion of light formed around him. After a few seconds the smoke cleared and they saw Rumble was back to normal. "Yes! I'm back!" He exclaimed as he felt his mane becoming shorter, he snout changing from round to square, and his eyelashes disappearing. "Thank you Zecora!" He said as he ran away back to his house in joy. He went to bed even though it wasn't night yet. He was so excited that he was back to normal he didn't hear Zecora's warning, but he didn't care as he went to bed.
