How We Live
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe next morning, Galaxy Moon wakes up to see everypony in the camp up and working and doing jobs like getting twigs for a fire, or looking out for trotters. Galaxy doesn't see Moonlight Bliss, or the two kind stallions she met the night before, Cloudy Skies and Sunny Skies. "Golden Lights, where's Moonlight, Cloudy, and Sunny?" Galaxy asks the yellow mare keeping watch. "They've gone hunting, dear," the older pony responds, turning back around to continue looking out. Galaxy decides to look for Scootaloo, but she's stopped by the bossiest stallion in the group, Blue Stream. "Galaxy Moon, I know you're new, but you need to help out. Watch the two fillies." He tells her, but Galaxy frowns. "Why can't I do something more important?" She asks him. Blue responds, "Because we've all got a job. It's how we live. How we stay alive. Don't ask questions, just do what I tell you." With that, the stallion walks away to go tell other ponies how to do things right. Galaxy finds Scootaloo and another younger filly by the smallest tent in the center of the camp. "I don't get why I can't go hunting with Moonlight Bliss..." Scootaloo complains, kicking her hoof out to push the old Wonderbolt doll over. "Because we need you here, Scoots. Here, and safe." Galaxy says, and Scootaloo rolls her eyes.
