"N-Nightsky? Are you sure we should've come here?" Sunrise Sprinkle asked. "I'm sure! This is the Ever-free Forest." Night sky answered irritably. "O-ok..." Sunrise whispered.
"Ok then, where's that map?" Nightsky Twinkle asked. "Err actually, I dropped it." Skylight Gleam said hastily. "WHAT?! Why didn't you tell me?" Nightsky glared. "Well, you see, you were doing one of your speeches about the ever-free forest to not listen to me!" Skylight glared back. "What? Then why don't you just tap me on the shoulder?!" "Because you just shrugged it off!" "No, I did not! Why didn't you just scream in my ear then? Then I wouldn't get mad at you if you just told me why!" "Well I always try to! Except you just get mad at me MORE!" "No, I do not!" "Yes, you do!" "No!" "Yes!" "No!" "Yes!" "No!" "Yes!" "N-" "STOP!!!" Sunrise shrieked. "What?!" Both Nightsky and Skylight said. "Quit your arguing and let's get a move on! We can't keep arguing like-like this! Just admit it! We are lost! Without that map, we can't go any farther. So, let's just think." Sunrise stated, and the 2 ponies' anger faded away.
"Yea. You're right." Nightsky sighed. "Do you... Smell something?" Skylight asked. "Hm. Now that you say it, yea. It really stinks." Nightsky said, sniffing the air. "What is that smell?" Sunrise asked, then gasped. "What?" Nightsky asked, leaping up. "T-T-Timber Wolf!" Sunrise yelled, and the three screamed.
"Come on, come, on!" Nightsky said, as she flew. "Ahh!" Sunrise yelled, and illuminated her horn. "Go! Go! Go!" Skylight yelled. "Skylight?!" Sunrise yelled as she looked back. "Go! I'll hold them ba-!" Skylight yelled as a Timber Wolf snipped her back leg. "Oww!" She shrieked, and Nightsky flew down to save her. "Skylight! Come on!" Nightsky said, beating her wings. "Come... On..." Nightsky breathed, but she collapsed, due to weight.
"Nightsky! Skylight!" Sunrise yelled, as the dark night seemed to wrap around her as she galloped toward them. The moon light seemed to expand in a shape, too far to see clear. The next moment, Sunrise leaped, catching her friends, but she had fallen, and a Timber Wolf nipped her leg, just like it had done to Skylight. It began to howl, in excitement and joy. Sunrise braced herself for the bite that was coming from the wolf, it's stench overwhelming her. Until a beam of dark, blue night came in to sight, but Sunrise gasped, and fainted, the last thing she saw, was a blue and sparkling figure, stand over her.
"Princess... Luna....?" Skylight said briefly. She had woken up, only a few seconds before becoming unconscious once more to exhaustion and fear. "My dear friends, why have you come here?" The figure loomed over them, all unconscious. "I must tell my sister. I will carry you to a hospital of great medic. My dear friends, you may not hear thee, but I am here. Do not worry." The figure said in a deep voice, recognizable as a mare's. Her wings spread, carried the three on her back. She flew high, to the sky, as the night swallowed her and she vanished.
