Suddenly she heard someone coming up behind her. Twilight turned around and saw that a pink mane could be seen from the bushes. Slowly she approached it, and started to hear a squeaking noise. "Fluttershy! How dare you follow me!" she screamed and heard the shy pony quiver in fear. Fluttershy panicked and took to the air, only to be dragged down by a spell from Twilight. "Ms. Sparkle, I'm so sorry, I just, just, just..." she whispered. "Twi, we used to be friends. Please don't hurt me. After what Rainbow did, I know you should be angry, but this has gone to far. Everyone makes mistakes, so please, let me go."  the yellow pony pleaded. "Fine. Just this once. I assume we're headed the same direction. So stay away from me." replied the purple Alicorn. The two made their way to Canterlot, walking on oppisite sides of the path. As Applejack boarded the train with Rarity, she couldn't help but wonder why Celestia had called the pair to Canterlot. After the fight, no one in Ponyville talked to the royals anymore. "Rarity, do ya think something bad is going on?" she asked her compainion. "Darling, who knows these days." Rarity replied. As they found their seats and the train began moving, Rarity looked around for any other ponies. "Ponyville has been so empty lately, and this train is no exeption. I think we're the only ones who even want to leave the city limits." They both looked out the window at the grassless expanses and charred tree stumps. "Hey, at least the Twilight Sparkle saved the town. And the farm, too." replied Applejack. As the train headed into the Canterlot mountains, both ponies took to wondering why Celestia called them. Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie walked out of Sugarcube corner and headed to the hot air balloon. Rainbow would fly to Canterlot herself, but thats hard to do with broken wings. When the balloon was safely in the sky, Pinkie asked "Do you ever feel bad about what happened?".  "Of course not. I was doing the right thing, and those idiots ruined it." "But those 'idiots' were our friends" the pink one replied. "Well then Pinkie, to you think it was right that Sparkle broke my wings?" "Oh... no. But what about Fluttershy? How you scared her off?" "That chicken? She deserved what she got" the rainbow maned mare remarked. The pair looked silently at the ground for the rest of the ride, not wanting to bother the other.
