11:25am, Carousel Boutique
The door to Carousel Boutique opened with a bell ring. "Welcome to Carousel Boutique, how may I-Oh! Why good morning Citrine. Do you have the gemstones i asked for, darling?" Rarity asked the yellow coated mare.
Citrine Glow was a unicorn and had a yellow coat, a golden-yellow mane and tail, with a gemstone, a dark yellow flash behind the gemstone for a cutie mark and light blue eyes.
"I do indeed, Rarity." Citrine replied, while walking to the closest table to her, levitating the box of gems onto the table. Rarity giggled with glee and trotted to the table.
Rarity then levitated a few gems from the box onto the table, then squealed "I don't know, how i can thank you, Citrine! You won't accept my bits, i can't simply let you leave empty hoofed, darling."
"Rarity it's fine, trust me. Think of it as a 'thank you' gift, for when you made me that dress for the Gala."
Rarity was about to argue back, but she gave in. "Oh, alright then Citrine. You did look absolutely fabulous in that dress! Not to mention, when you were dancing with that handsome dragon! What was his name again?"
Citrine blushed, and giggled, "Roxus."
Rarity squealed, "Please tell me, the DETAILS!"
12:05pm, Ponyville, Sugarcube Corner
A turquoise mare sat by herself, looking at blank stave sheet, she let out a sigh, "Ugh! I'm stumped. Can't think." then leaned her head back and stared at the ceiling.
"Hello, Ribena. Can't think of what?" Ribena turned her head, to see who said her name.
"Hi, Citrine. Your back quick, and i can't think of what key signature to put this song in." Ribena said putting her on the table. Citrine took a seat across from Ribena.
"That's it?" Citrine asked flatly, "You know, your asking the wrong pony about that music stuff."
"I just couldn't tell." Ribena said sarcastically, "Anyway, have you got any other orders?"
Citrine puts hoof to her chin, "Uhh... Don't know, i'll need to check. Wanna go now?" Ribena gives Citrine a sad look, "But Moonlight will be here soon!"
The yellow unicorn stood up from her seat, "You know he hardly gets a break nowadays, with him being a royal guard and helping Twilight with stuff that Princess Celestia gives her. I don't think he will show, and if he did you guys will just have short chat and that's it. You should just wait until he's gets home, then you guys have some fun."
Ribena's eyes went wide, her cheeks a bright shade of red, "I hate you."
"Love you too." Citrine chuckled, she levitated Ribena's sheets of music into her saddle bag. The two mares headed to the exit of Sugarcube Corner.
"I take it, that i missed lunch again?" a pegasus, stallion with royal armor on landed in front of Citrine and Ribena.
"Hi Moonlight!" Ribena's face beamed with happiness as she gave the dark blue stallion a hug. "It's great to see you, too." Moonlight said as he returned the hug.
"So, you two gonna get a room or what?"
Moonlight blushed slightly, Ribena's cheeks went red again, "I hate you so much right now Citrine!"
"Well Citrine, we already have a room, so..." Moonlight said with a sly grin. At this point, Citrine was trying to hold back laughter, Ribena's cheeks went from red to her whole face glowing red, she covered her face with her hooves and her wings twitched slightly.
"MOONLIGHT! DON'T YOU start now!" both Moonlight and Citrine were laughing out loud now.
Moonlight then pulled Ribena into a hug, "Aww, you know i love you. Has anyone told you, you look cute when your face goes red?"
"Has anyone told you, your an idiot?"
"Fair enough." Moonlight answered. Citrine coughed loudly so the both of them could hear her. "Hate to break this up, but Moonlight i'm gonna be taking your marefriend for a while, so i can have some company while i pick out gemstones for my clients."
Citrine's horn began to glow, a light blue aura form around Ribena's tail, "Citrine! Stop pulling my tail! You know, i hate it, when ponies pull my tail!"
"Okay, fine. I'll just pull your wing." just as the light blue aura started to form, around one of Ribena's wings, Ribena flew into the air, and the blue aura disappeared.
"I think you two, should get going before you kill each other." Moonlight walked in between them, and sighed, then chuckled."And anyway, i should be heading back, so i'll you both later, and don't kill one another." he said, as he walked away.
"BYE!" both mares exclaimed. Citrine and Ribena then headed to Citrine's shop.
2:30pm, Citrine's shop
"No. I can't believe, your thinking about it." Ribena began, "I'm sorry, but going into THE Everfree Forest, to find a Water Sapphire gem?!" Ribena exclaimed.
Citirine sighed, "You don't get it, Water Sapphires are super rare! Not to mention, can only be found in The Everfree Forest."
"You know that, how?"
"I wrote an essay about them, when i was in high school." Ribena didn't look to amused. "What?" Citrine asked
Ribena stood up, "Two words, EVERFREE FOREST! Timberwolves, Manticores, and Celestia knows what else!" Ribena continued, "Citrine, if we were to go into The Everfree Forest, would you know, where to find the sapphire?"
Citrine put her hoof to her chin, and walked over to the table, levitating books on the table. "I think so, but..."
The turquoise mare moaned, "Why is there always a 'but'?"
Citrine continued, "But the Water Sapphires, are hidden deep in the forest."
Both mares were silent for a few moments. Ribena sighed, "It's crazy, possibly insane, and there is no way, for me to change your mind." she admitted, Citrine stared at Ribena, wit a puzzled face. "There is also no way, i would let you go alone."
"Your coming?" Citrine asked.
"Yes, BUT first sign of trouble, we're out of there, got it?" Citrine nodded, and started packing her saddle bag.
Once Citrine was finished packing things, her and Ribena left Citrine's shop, started walking to the Everfree Forest, in hope to find a Water Sapphire.

Accidents happen
12:19pm, Ponyville market.
After his quick chat with Citrine and Ribena, Moonlight then made his way through Ponyville market, with his destination being, The Castle of Friendship. When Moonlight first came to Ponyville, after Princess Luna asked him, if he could be part of Twilight's Royal Guard. At first he wasn't to sure about the idea, because he knew that, Twilight can protect herself, he soon found out that it was Twilight's idea to come to Ponyville, to be closer to his friends and family. The town ponies were a bit worried at first, when they seen two Royal Guards in Ponyville.(The other guard being a bat pony, Crimson Knight.) Sure enough, Twilight managed to calm there worry's down, telling everyone that Moonlight and Crimson Knight are here to assist her, and them if needed. Now everypony was happy to know, that they have somepony to protect them.
"Erm...Derpy, do you want some some help?" Moonlight asked, he found Derpy lying on some apples, after she crashed.
"Nope! It's fine i got it! Sorry about the mess, Applejack." Derpy gave Applejack sheepish grin.
Applejack chuckled. "That's quite alright Derpy.", and extended her hoof out to help her up. " Accidents happen."
"Do you want a hoof picking up the apples, AJ" Moonlight asked, as he started to pick up one of the buckets.
"That be mighty kind of ya, sugarcube."
After about ten minutes, they cleaned up just about all the apples, and placed the buckets onto a cart. "Yer sure ye got that, Mac?" Applejack asked, her older brother.
"Eeyup." he replied, with that he was on his way to, Sweet Apple Acres.
"Guess i'll be going as well. See you later AJ." Moonlight said, while turning away, and started walking.
"Arighty, see ya!" the orange earth pony called out, Moonlight turned around to wave back, while still walking, "Uh...Moonlight lo-"
Applejack tried to call out one more time, but it was too late Moonlight and a unicorn mare had collided. A laugh escaped Applejack's mouth, while saying, "Onyx, ye really need ta keep an eye out, for where yer walkin'." she burst in a fit of laugher.
Onyx Nightshade, a purple coated unicorn mare, with black mane, and tail. Has podium for cutie mark with, a question mark and exclamation point, in the middle of the podium. Along with a pair of glasses.
Both Moonlight and Onyx get back on their hooves. "Sorry, i just got really, really, into this new Daring Do book, and it's just so awesome!"
"I could tell as soon as, you walked into me." Moonlight muttered, while rubbing his head.
Applejack smirked, "Why don't y'all head on over to Twilight's? Ah'm sure she'll want talk about Daring Do, Onyx. Once ah help Big Mac on the farm, ah'll be over when, ah'm done. Ah'll see the both of you later"
Both Onyx, and Moonlight said their goodbyes, Applejack heading to Sweet Apple Acres, Moonlight and Onyx heading to The Castle of Friendship.
"Why is it, whenever a new book comes out, you always--and your not listening to me." Moonlight groaned.
Well at least it would, be a quiet walk to the castle. Moonlight thought to himself.
3:15pm, Everfree Forest.
The path that was at the start, of the Everfree Forest began to disappear as Citrine and Ribena trotted through the forest. Citrine's horn glowed with a blue aura, with her head going left to right, to if the blue aura got any brighter, to see if any gems were near.
"Your going to get exhausted, if you keep using that spell, you know?" Ribena told her friend, while flying in the air.
"Your going to get exhausted, if you keep flying, you know?" Citrine shot back, with a grin.
Ribena stuck out her tongue, and blew raspberries.
"Ha! Real mature, Ribena." Citrine chuckled,"So, you ready for your show?"
"Hm?" Ribena snapped out of her thoughts, "Oh, you mean the one in Cloudsdale? Yeah i guess so." she landed down beside Citrine.
"You 'guess'? What do you mean, you 'guess'?" Citrine asked in confused tone, "I thought you'd be over the moon, to perform in Cloudsdale, i mean come on, it's your hometown." she glared at Ribena.
Ribena didn't meet her gaze, "I-i don't know! I just, i just don't know..."
There was a brief silence, between the two mares. The silence was broken by Citrine, was she asked, "Is this about your dad?"
Ribena let out a sigh, "Kinda."
Citrine was about to something, but got cut off by Ribena, who raised up her hoof, and to silence Citrine. They came to a halt.
"What?" Citrine whispered.
"Stop using your spell."
Citrine blinked in confusion, "Why? Tell me what's wrong?"
"Citrine, the spell!" Ribena tried to keep her voice down.
"Alright! Okay!" Citrine kept her voice down as well, and stop the spell, "Now, tell me. What's wrong?"
"You don't hear, that?"
Citrine looked around them, "All i can hear, and see, is a bush moving! Don't tell me, your scared of that?"
"That's not the poi-CITRINE!" Ribena dove at Citrine.
Citrine turned around to see, two things diving at her. First her friend Ribena. Second a Timberwolf.
