Grounded: The Ballad of Greased Lightning
The Cutie Mark Crusaders search for a fallen pegasus, who vanished after his special talent became the one thing he couldn't do.
While on a new assignment for the Foal Free Press, the Cutie Mark Crusaders stumble upon the tale of Greased Lightning, a pegasus who once challenged for the title of 'The Fastest Flyer in Equestria,' but vanished after a freak accident in his final race. Intrigued and curious, the Crusaders set out to find the fallen flyer, discovering a story filled with triumph, despair...and perhaps even redemption.
