Say what now?

Previous Chapter

As Rainbow ran down the hill, Hilani watched her. She wanted to have fun but didn't want to get hurt running down a big hill. But she went anyway. She started to catch up to Rainbow Dash, who was going as fast as Fluttershy's rabbit, Angel. She continued following Rainbow. Up each slope, around each curb and up the bridges.

"Come on Hilani!" Rainbow yelled looking behind her.

"I'm trying."

"Well hopefully you can keep..." Suddenly Rainbow lost her balance and started rolling down the hill.

"Rainbow you okay?" There was no answer. "Oh Mushrooms!" She ran down to go see Rainbow. Once she finally found her, she could see that she was all skinned and bruised. "Oh no."

Meanwhile at the orphanage.

"Gummy! Gummy where are you?" screamed Pinkie.

"Have you found him yet?" asked Fluttershy.

"No." while Hilani and Rainbow were away, Pinkie had seemed to have lost Gummy. The door was wide open, which meant that he went out the door because usually Rainbow would close the door, it was her pet peeve to leave the door open.

"Pinkie, we'll find Gummy. He has to be around the town somewhere."

Everyone started to complain that they were hungry, the younger girls were crying and sobbing because they started loosing things and they were hungry to. It turns out the older girls did not know the way to the store and back. Which was a problem.

"You know what everypony SHUT UP!" said Twilight. "We won't solve anything with complaining or crying. We can do this!"

"We want Ms. Warton. We want Ms. Warton!" They began to chant.

Twilight turned to Fluttershy. "We might need to go out ourselves. It's been days since Vinyl, Octavia and BonBon have been seen."

Suddenly Hilani came in with Rainbow Dash who was limping and almost falling at every step.

"Oh no, Rainbow are you okay?" asked Fluttershy.

"I'm fine."

"Okay! This is c-ar-AAAAAAA-zy! We can't survive on our own. Look at Rainbow! And then look at everypony else. Then look at me. I'm miserable without Gummy and everypony's hungry. Even me. I haven't had sweets in so long!" said Pinkie Pie. "I'm going out to fing Ms. Warton.

"Wait Pinkie! I'll come too!" said Twilight.

"Me too!" said Rainbow. "I may be busted but I know I can do it!"

"You in Flutters?" asked Rainbow.

"Um. Sure. Anything for friends!" she said with confidence.

"Then lets get this party started!" Pinkie ran out the door along with Rainbow. Then Rainbow stopped. She looked behind her at Hilani, Maria and Oddesy.

"Hey Hilani! Why don't you come too!"

Pinkie then stopped. "You to Oddesy!"

Then Fluttershy stopped. "And you to Maria!"

"I'd be honored!" they all said in unison. Then they all ran out the door saying goodbye to everypony. Each girl said good luck and see you soon.

"It's good to say see you soon because if you say Bye then you might die so I'd rather say..."

"Firestone! You know that's how you got kicked out of your last house!" said another random girl. Firestone was always the debby downer, the person that always said and asumed you were going to die or go down to the underworld if you do or say something. She said that around her adopted family and unfortunately got kicked out because they had a strong hate for the underworld.

"Sorry." said Firestone.

The girls ran everywhere, searching everyplace. Going to every store, asking everypony, if they had seen Ms. Warton. Everyone said no or "get the heck outta mah way!" Each day was different, they searched different places and asked different people but sometime encountered the same people. Overnight they slept on small mattresses that Pinkie had in her pocket. The mattress was called "The pokito. The mattress you can store in your pocket! Yay!" that was the motto. (Pretty weird right)

They felt like homeless people sleeping in the woods near the road. But no one could see them. They did not want someone to take them home when they were already at an orphanage.

They never gave up hope for finding Ms. Warton and they started to look for gummy in the meantime. When finally they found him. He was inside the mattress. he found a way in through the hole in the mattress. No wonder Rainbow Dash kept waking up and her mattress was to the ground. She almost go tin a fight with one man on the street. Rainbow Dash was running really fast and she encountered the man on the street and asked him if he had seen Ms. Warton and then showed a picture to him. The man said "No" but then he said "Your a really fast boy." which ticked Rainbow off. The man got up and turned around walking really slow, not even noticing that Pinkie, Twilight and the other girls were holding Rainbow back from punching him in the face. Rainbow eventually got tired and gave up (That's what Rainbow wants to believe, Maria actually slapped her to sleep but Rainbow does not want to believe that she got slapped by a girl younger than her.)

Days turned into... a week. They have not been back to the orphanage in a week. Twilight actually started to wonder how were the girls at the orphanage doing. Where they still alive? Did they go crazy? Did one of the girls go on a killing spree for food? What was going on? But she assumed that they were fine and continued to help the girls search for Ms. Warton. Twilight wished that she had communication with Vinyl, Ocatvia and BonBon. She wanted to see how they were doing and if they arrived back at the orphanage again.
