"Well I guess today I should probably tell the others about the plan, want to give them some time to think it over" Twilight says while walking into the castle's kitchen with Spike in a corner next to the stove making eggs.

"Well that's probably a good idea because the meeting is in 3 days so they have to decide by then." Spike says as he puts the eggs on a plate. "do you think it would a be a good idea to tell all of them at once, or do it one at a time?" he says as he brings the plates over the the table."I was thinking about that too and i decided to tell them all at once...., would you mind gathering everyone up at Sweet Apple Acres?" "Sure, when will you be there?" Spike asks before running out the door." Ill be there in half an hour so have everyone there by then" She says as Spike walks out the door.

"Well, now that your all here I guess i'll start." Twilight says as she begins her speech. "As many of you are aware a few weeks ago I was called to Canterlot. While there I was given a very important task by Princess Celestia. Since the battle with Tirek, Equestria has been using many of its resources attempting to re-build things. However we have been running out off many resources and as such Princess Celestia has asked me to take a few ponies,about 30, and head beyond the Griffon Kingdom to a selected plot of land and form a new nation. I have chosen to include all of you, if you wish not to come, i will not make you, please come by the castle in 3 days tops to alert me of your presence. If none of you go I will still be leaving so don't expect me to call if off. Thank you for your time." Twilight finishes as she fly s through the barn doors back towards her castle. "What are we gonna do?" A still shocked Fluttershy asks.
