(I made the chapter title spanish, so what?)

Rainy awoke to see Essence was sneaking out of the room.

"Now where is she going this late?" Rainy muttered.

She gently shook draco, who of course woke up screaming.

"Calm down!!" Rainy tried to assure him.

"Oh, It's just you Rainy..."

Soon there was a soft knock at the door. Draco ran up and opened the door.

"Hi rainy!" Ditzy said, walking in.

"Oh hello Ditzy! Hello Biscuit!" Rainy said with a smile.

"Heya!" Biscuit said, jumping onto draco.

"Get offa mee!" He whined.

The mares giggled at his little problem.

"That's enough, Biscuit." Ditzy said, still giggling a little.

"So are you ready?" She added.

"Oh yeah! I forgot about shopping!" Rainy cried out, hitting her forehead with a hoof.

"Well, We better get going. Lightning told me about a boat that leaves on saturdays and sundays to take ponies to the.... Uh..." She said.

"The mainland?" Draco suggested.

"Yeah! But, He did tell me that our digimon have to stay behind... for safety sake you know?" Dizty said.

"Yes, i know. I've done it before." Rainy said, slipping her saddle bags on.

"Oh I'm such an airhead somedays... I'm sorry." Ditzy replied, sadly.

"Don't be. Well, we better get going if we want to buy hearth warming gifts for our friends." Rainy said, walking out the door.


They arrived at the boat a little later.

"Good morning Lightning!" Rainy said, cheerfully.

"Oh hey rainy. Good morning Ditzy." He said.

"Is Crescent and Night with you?" Rainy asked.

"No, But they should be coming soon."

Soon enough Night and Crescent came galloping up to the port.

"hey night, Hey Crescent." Lighting said.

"hey." They both said.

"Is Essence with you?" Rainy asked.

"No, I haven't seen her." Night said.

Crescent's Cheeks turned a light pink as he said "Uh N-nope!"

"I saw her flying in the direction of the port, She must have left on the one before this." Lighting said.

"She must be shopping for us." Ditzy said.

"Or for you guys I mean..." She added, recoiling back a bit.

"Now who's to say that you're not our friend?" Rainy said, throwing a hoof on her back.

"R-really... I've never had too many friends... Because of my eyes... They all thing I'm stupid or something..." She sniffed.

"If the digital world thinks you're amazing enough to have a digimon, Then you must be an amazing mare!" Lighting said.

There was a loud foghorn that drowned out what Ditzy said next.

"Oh before we leave, I've got something that just came out of the lab today." Lightning said, reaching into his saddle bags.

He pulled out four small items that had were each ponies respective digivice colors.

"You see that small plug in point... here?" He said, pointing to a small hole beside the antenna.

They all nodded. Lightning took a orange one and plugged it into his digivice. The screen lit up before it faded again, emitting a ding sound.

"Tapirmon! Release!" He shouted, putting a hoof on top of the item.

There was a flash of light before Tapirmon was standing in front of him.

"See? Oh, to bring them back into the Digivice, you say your partner's name and download. " He said.

"Woah.." They all said.

He hoofed over the other ones and the others tried it out.

"This so cool! Now we can bring our digimon with us!" Ditzy cried out.

"But, Just promise that you won't bring your digimon out, unless it's an emergency." Lightning said.

They all shook their heads.

"Good, Now then, We should get aboard, I don't think they'll wait any longer."

They downloaded their digimon and boarded the boat.


An hour later they saw the only big city in japone, Hiroshimare.

"Woah, So is this where you live Night?" Lightning asked.

"No, We live in Yokoneigha. It's close to Hiroshimare." Night replied.

There was a loud, magically produced foghorn as the boat slowed to a stop.

"Well, I guess I'd better find Essence." Night said, taking off.

"Bye!" A voice called from the digivice.

"Huh?" Ditzy said, looking at her digivice.

Sure enough, Biscuit was there.

"Huh... Well, That's cool..." Ditzy said.

"Ditzy! Come on! We gotta get shopping!" Rainy said, pulling Ditzy.

"O-ok!"


"Ooh Do you think Lightning would like this?" Ditzy said, picking up a pin shaped like a blue lightning bolt.

"It looks like his cutie mark, Why not." Rainy said.

Ditzy tossed a few bits on the counter and the mare running the stand thanked them. Rainy took it and put it in her saddle bag.

"What do you think Lightning would like? I got Essence a necklace that surprisingly had her cutie mark on it, I got night that book, I got you nothing yet... Well that than must mean I got Crescent... Nothing!!!!" She said, panicking at the end.

"Relax, I really don't know what he likes but I've seen him out reading comics on a good day. Maybe we can get him some? I know the power ponies are pretty good." Rainy suggested.

Ditzy nodded and began to walk to the bookstore.


"Do you think Lightning would like this tome?" Rainy said, flipping through a book about electric magic.

"Well, it's his cutie mark. He must." Ditzy said, flipping through a power ponies comic.

"I'll take it!" They both shouted at the same time.

They both stopped and giggled a bit. They payed for their books and walked out.

"So, I got Essence, a journal, Night, a book on swordplay, Lightning, A electric magic tome, Crescent, an issue of spidermane, I haven't gotten anything for you yet... What do you like?" Rainy said.

"Hmm... Muffins! And baking. You must also stop buying everypony books. We need to get gift for our... you know what... too." Ditzy replied.

"Well, then I need to make a quick stop, Do you want to go buy for me?"

"Well, I have no idea what you like..."

"Well, that's easy! Gardening and books!" Rainy said, tossing ditzy some bits.

"Ok, I should probably buy for the... D-I-G-I-M-O-N as well..." Ditzy said.

"Same, Meet at the square when we're all done?" Rainy asked.

Ditzy nodded and they both ran off.


Rainy ran into a small baking store.

"Welcome!!" The clerk at the counter said.

"May I help you?" She said, coming around the counter.

"Uh yeah, Do you have anything on muffins? Or anything related?" Rainy asked.

"Well, We have this muffin recipe book. It's twenty bits." She said, running to the back and picking up a book.

"Deal." She said, giving the shop keeper twenty bits.

"Have a merry hearths warming!" The clerk said, happily.


Ditzy ran back to the bookstore and looked down the books about gardening.

"How to garden... How to get a cutie mark about gardening... Ah! Plants and you: all about plant species!" Ditzy read off as she picked up a book with a poison joke flower on the cover.

She put it on the counter and the clerk checked it out.

"Have a merry hearths warming!" He said, waving as ditzy left.

She immediately took off for a few other stores.


"Oh hey Ditzy! Did I keep you waiting?" Rainy asked cheerfully.

"No! I just got here! Are you ready to leave? I picked up some wrapping paper as well, so don't worry."

"Good! I totally forgot!" Rainy said, laughing.

"I guess the colts will come back when they need too, so we don't have to worry about them barging in." Ditzy said.

They shared a laugh as they walked back to the boat.


They both went up to ditzy's dorm when they got back to the academy.

"Ooh! Why does tape have to be so sticky!" Draco complained as he tried to wrap Wasp's present from rainy.

They mares already wrapped their presents and their digimon's presents so they didn't have to worry about them finding out

"Here." Ditzy said, untangling his arms.

"I used to be a mailmare, so I know how to deal with tape." She said, laughing a bit.

"Neato!" Rainy said, setting a present off to the side.

The whole room turned and stared at her.

"I promise I will never say that again." Rainy said.

"Good, I don't think I could take it next time." Draco said.

Biscuit suddenly woke up as the smell of gingerbread cookies wafted throughout the dorm.

"Ooh! Cookies are ready!" Ditzy said, running to the kitchen.

She pulled out four gingerbread ponies from the small oven they all had in their dorms. It was small to reduce the chance of fire. A giant fire was the last thing this school needed. Ditzy put the cookies on four plates and poured three glasses of milk and one bowl. Rainy got up to help when she saw ditzy was struggling.

"Thanks." Ditzy said, placing the bowl of milk in front of Biscuit.

She placed a cookie as well down in front of him.

"This was the best day ever, Ditzy." Rainy said, taking a bite of the gingerbread pony.

"Yes, Yes it was." Ditzy said, biting the head off of hers.
