The 7 Keys

"Hmmm..." said Discord.

"Well!?" said Rainbow Dash, "You said you'll help."

"I will, I will" said Discord "Only thing is, this poem looks familiar somewhere..."

"Well, of course!" said Rarity "It's about...something."

"Maybe, my grandpa knows."

"You have a grandpa?" said Fluttershy.

"Of course, I do!" said Discord "How'd I have parents without grandparents? Come on, now. We have no time to waste. Grandpa Discord the Great is just right on Cloudsdale."

"Cloudsdale!?" shouted Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash "Your grandpa lives on Cloudsdale!?"

"He just wanted his twilight good years to be peaceful" said Discord "And what could be more peaceful that sitting and standing on clouds? Well...let's go now!"

"'Discord the Great', what a name" muttered Applejack to Rarity.

They walked up from Ponyville, through the Everfree forest, pass Fillydelphia, and finally Clousdale.

"Ahh, Cloudsdale." sighed Discord "It's been over 45 years since I came here. You know, like being stuck for a long time on stone twice and then having a long break."

"Me too" said Fluttershy "I missed Cloudsdale so much that I can't even remember I live here."

"Yeah, and I want to see my old home again." said Rainbow Dash "Excuse me, but I need to see at once."

"Fine then, but hurry up." said Rarity.

So, the 6 went to Discord the Great (Grandpa Discord, in short) while Rainbow Dash was left behind to see his old house. As she entered it, it was somehow old, dark, dusty, and abandoned. She picked up a broom, and as she's cleaning it, the door suddenly slammed by itself.

"Hh-h-hello?" shrivelled Rainbow Dash. "A-anyone Out Th-th-there?"

"Nope, just us."

"Wh-who's there?" said Rainbow Dash.

"I told you, just us."

"Oh," said Ranibow Dash with a relief "It's just you Sptifire and Lightning Dust. What are you doing here?"

"We all know you are a great flyer" said Lightning Dust "You proved who you really are during your studies at the Wonderbolts Academy and the Equestrian Games Qualifying Round." "So, why not join our team?" said Spitfire "Besides, aren't you bored living at Ponyville?"

"Nope." said Rainbow Dash "Besides, I have great friends that are good at flying, Twilight for example, and it's fun living at Ponyville."

"But being with us is a very rare opportunity." said Lightning Dust." "Yeah, you'll wait forever until we get you again." said Spitfire.

"Uhhh" said Rainbow "Well...I think I'll..."

"Come on!" said Lightning "Besides, you'll get to fly with us for the Universal Olympics."

"THE UNIVERSAL OLYMPICS!?" screamed Rainbow Dash "I thought I'd never see this day, competing at the universal olympics. Sure, I'll join."

"In just one thing." said Spitfire, pointing at her necklace "You hand over that trinket of yours."

"This? Well..." said Rainbow Dash, suddenly something went to her mind to do the nastiest thing everpony has ever done, nor will ever be done, "...It's useless anyway. Take it."

Giving Rainbow Dash the Element of Loyalty, the two ponies smiled at each other, said "Thanks", and suddenly banished in thin air, bringing the element with them.
