The ride back to Ponyville was on high alert for The Exodus, the ponies had their eye out the windows of The Friendship Express as they scanned the countryside, meanwhile Fluttershy was staring out the window but not looking for The Exodus but thinking about how she encountered it last night in her dream.

"What do I do?," She thought, "Should I tell them I saw it last night in my dream, but then I'll have to tell them of what I've been dreaming of, the vampire fruit bat nightmares, the strong craving for apples, and that strange creature from my dream... who is he?" She still keep thinking about him the entire trip back.

The train reached Ponyville and Twilight gave the others certain orders to follow to help catch this thing, "Okay girls, in order to catch this Exodus we have to keep watch over Ponyville, Rainbow Dash you take to the sky and check out every cloud." She ordered.

"Got it!" Said Dash with a salute.

"Applejack and Pinkie, you take the hot air balloon and scan Ponyville from there, okay?"

"Can do!" Said Applejack.

"Okie doki loki!" Said Pinkie.

"Rarity, I want you and Spike to make a big sheet and cast a strength spell around it so when we catch it we can cover it and it will keep it captive till we can put it back in Starswirl's vase."

"Sure thing darling." Said Rarity.

"Me and Starlight are gonna check the archives to dig up more on this Exodus."

They ran off to their duties, but Fluttershy was the only one that didn't have one, "What about me Twilight, that can I do?" She asked.

Twilight sighed, "Fluttershy I'm afraid I don't have anything for you to do."

"Why?" She asked.

"Cause, I've been worried about you today." Said Twilight.

"W-worried ab-bout me?, W-what do you thinks wrong?" She whimpered.

"Fluttershy yesterday at my tea party you seemed distant from reality and you got scared when Applejack offered you an apple, and early today you were really silent and spaced out and on the train as well." She finished, Fluttershy rubbed her hoof against her forearm and started to shake, "Fluttershy whats wrong, you know you can tell me."

Fluttershy sighed, "Okay Twilight, I'll tell you whats wrong, do you remember when I got turned into a vampire fruit bat?" She asked, Twilight nodded, "For the pass week I've been having dreams that I've been turning into one again and flying around sucking the juices out of all the apples in Applejack's orchard."

"Oh my goodness!" Gasped Twilight, "That must explain why you were scared of Applejack's apples."

"That's not the strange part," Fluttershy continued, "That morning I had an apple for breakfast and I ate four of them like crazy, I was really worried of what was going on with me that day."

Twilight's mouth was agape. "Oh my!, is that all?" She asked.

"There's more," She sighed, "Later that night I wished upon Luna's moon to help me figure out why am I having these dreams, I went to sleep woke up in the middle of the night to get a drink of water and looked at myself in the mirror and saw myself in the form of the vampire fruit bat I knew that I was still asleep cause I didn't feel tired after I woke up out of bed that night."

"Please tell me more Fluttershy!" Said Twilight anxiously.

"Well I went outside and flew into the night sky and flew across the apple orchard, but didn't eat any apples, then I flew higher into the sky and into... into... a dark cloud." Then there was a big gasp from Twilight.

"The Exodus was in your dreams!?" She gasped, Fluttershy nodded. "What happened next!? Tell me!"

"Everything was dark, like black almost, I could see anything until it cleared up and I found myself hovering over an ocean."

"An ocean?" Said Twilight.

Fluttershy nodded, "I saw a light on the horizon and I flew to see what it was but when I got closer it turned out to be an amusement park of some sort with strange that looked like hairless monkey with only manes on their head and some of them where really long and messy.

"An amusement park with hairless monkeys?" Said Twilight, "What happened next?"

"Well I heard strange music coming from a stage that had a big buff ape with a saxophone and the music was really nice, I sat on top of a building to not to be seen and listen to the music then I felt like somepony was watching me."

"Somepony was watching you?" Said Twilight.

Fluttershy nodded again. "I looked down into the crowd and saw one of those creatures, he was tall with a long dark black mane and he wore a black leather jacket with a leopard on his right sleeve, he looked right at me and saw me, I flew straight upwards into the sky and tried to look for a way out but when I turned my head he... he... he was right in front of me... floating in mid air... flying."

"WHAT HAPPENED!?" Twilight said again very anxiously.

"He hovered towards me and looked into my eyes, then it felt like my heart stopped, then extended his arm out to me and touched my face, he spoke "Who are you?" he said to me I saw the cloud and flew towards it as fast as I could, I reached it then every thing went black again then I woke up in my bed." She finished.

Twilight was speechless she didn't know what to say, "Fluttershy do you know what this means!?"

Fluttershy was clueless so she shook her head.

"It means that you've entered a whole new world from The Exodus and you returned unharmed, This Is So Amazing... We have to get to your cottage, I need to find any trace of evidence it might have left at your house." She said excitingly, and they ran off to Fluttershy's.

Meanwhile Elsewhere...

David and his gang where at the amusement park known as The Santa Carla Boardwalk, Santa Carla was a small town on the California coast just southwest of San Francisco, It was also known as the Murder Capital Of The World cause of all the missing report posters all around town where caused by... you guessed it... the vampires that lived there.

Paul and Marko were on the Tilt-a-whirl trying to see how long they can go with out puking, David was smoking a cigarette pacing up and down the boardwalk like usual, Star was looking after Laddie in the arcade keeping him out of trouble, Dwayne was at the far end of the beach sitting on a wall of rocks looking out at the ocean, he was still thinking about his dream from earlier.

"That can't be possible." He thought, "I've never seen a breed of vampire like that before..., Why was she a pony? I mean I've never ever heard of a vampire pony... What am I doing, it was all a dream, a fiction, a creation in my sub consciousness, it wasn't real, I got to wake up to reality and stop thinking about these things." Dwayne hoped off the rocks and headed back to the boardwalk.

Back in Equestria...

Twilight and Fluttershy made to her cottage, they were going to check for evidence of The Exodus that was in Fluttershy's dreams. "Let me go in first Fluttershy," Said Twilight, "If anything happens, I want it to happen to me first." She opened the door and looked inside, everything appeared to look normal at first till they saw all of Fluttershy's animals in a corner shaking.

Fluttershy ran over to them, "Whats wrong my darling?" She asked, they were staring at something across the room and when Twilight and Fluttershy both turned their heads they saw... The Exodus in the doorway.

Twilight charged at the cloud and shot a beam of magic at it, the beam went into the cloud but it shot right back out towards Twilight, she jump out the way in time and the beam hit Fluttershy's couch and burned a hole straight through it, the cloud flew out of the house.

"Fluttershy!" Twilight called, "Go get the others and get them here as quickly as possible!" And Twilight gave chase after it.

Fluttershy flew to as fast as her wing could carry her to get the others, she found Rainbow Dash first and told her, she asked Dash to go get the others cause she was faster than her.

Twilight chased The Exodus to a open field the others had just arrived, they cornered The Exodus so it couldn't go nowhere, "Okay Rarity!" She screamed, "Throw the sheet!"

"I didn't finish putting the spell on it!" She cried.

"We'll just have to cast it as soon it's on the cloud, Fluttershy, Dash each of you grab a corner and fly over and cover it and drag it down to the ground!" She instructed.

The Exodus saw Fluttershy and remembered her from last night and where it sent her to.

They grabbed a corner and flew over the cloud, they tackled and pulled the ropes to the ground and just as Twilight horn lit a bolt of lightning ripped through the sheet and The Exodus broke free.

The cloud was now mad it rose into the air and turned to a dark shade of gray, it grew in size to where it was about the size of Twilight's castle, the sky turned dark as well and wind started to blow and it started to rain.

Back in Santa Carla...

David and his friends were eating at a fast food joint on the boardwalk when it started rain. "That's weird?" Said David, "The sky was clear just a minute ago and now its raining?" The others where clueless is to how that was, the people on the boardwalk started to clear out from the rain, "We should get back to the cave." Said David, "Who knows how long this rain will last, looks like it probably wont stop till morning." They all agreed that it was a good idea to leave.

They got to their bikes and the rain started to come down even harder, "I don't think it's a good idea to ride on these back to the cave," Yelled Paul, "It will probably be faster and safer if we fly!"

David nodded to the idea they took chains and locked the bikes up, and ran down under a pier, Laddie was scared so he got on Dwayne's back and wrapped his arms around his neck, Star did the same with David as well, then with a small jump they took off into the rainy night.

Back in Equestria...

Twilight had to come up with a new plan to capture this thing, "What are we gonna do?" Dash cried.

Twilight was shaking till she looked at the vase and Dash and Fluttershy, then a idea came into her head. "I got it, Rainbow Dash I need you to fly around the cloud as fast as you can to create a tornado!"

"Are you crazy!" Screamed Dash "That will make it worse!"

"Trust me, my plan will work, Starlight when the bottom of the twister makes it peak I want you to pull the tail into the opening of the vase." She instructed, Starlight nodded and they went to work.

Rainbow Dash flew around the cloud as fast as she could trying to create a tornado as Twilight instructed, the cloud started to change its form the cloud started to get in the shape she wanted it to, the bottom was starting to peak as twilight wanted she put the vast in her magic and held it in place, Starlight grabbed onto the bottom and guided it towards the vase.

The Exodus saw what they were doing and shot bolts of lightning at them, the lightning was out of control it was shooting bolts like Pinkie's batter mixer.

Starlight jumped and lost control of the bottom of the twister and it went out of control, Dash got scared and stopped spinning the twister, Fluttershy thought quick and flew towards the twister and kept spinning it, she looked at the cloud and spoke to it.

"Why me?" She asked. "Why did you take me to that world?"

The cloud heard her voice and thought of that place he sent her to and that creature it saw as well.

Back in Santa Carla...

The boys where still flying in the rain over the coast of Santa Carla to get home it was hard to see in the rain.

"Dammit David!" Marko yelled. "I can't see shit!"

Then a they saw a large tornado in front of them, there were never any tornado's on the California coast, David saw a group of dark clouds in that where in the direction where the cave was, "Well have to charge right through these clouds." David yelled, the followed David into the dark clouds to avoid the tornado.

Everyone was scared and so was David he knew he was putting his friends in danger like this but it was the only was to get home safely and quickly, then a flash of lightning scared everyone, he could even hear Laddie crying.

"David, I'm scared!" Cried Star she had never experienced something so terrifying in her life.

They kept of flying as fast as they could, then a flash of lightning hit them, everyone let out screams of pain and agony and another bolt stuck them and everything went black.

Back in Equestria...

Starlight was doing her best to get a hold of The Exodus she used her magic to grab the bottom again, she pulled the tornado with all her might towards the vase, the top of the tornado stated to tip over and the girls got a front row seat to see the eye of the tornado.

Then... something came flying out of the eye, it was so fast nopony saw what it was, the tail was in the vase and Twilight cast a spell pulling The Exodus into the vase, the twister got smaller and smaller and smaller till everything stopped they all saw that The Exodus was now contained.

"WE DID IT!" Pinkie cheered and she blew off her party cannon.

"Um you guy's!" Whimpered Fluttershy, "You better come here." They all walked over to where Fluttershy was standing.

Everypony gasped at the sight they saw, six ponies laid on the ground in front of them unconscious, there were four stallions, a mare and a young colt.

One of the stallions was a unicorn he was white with a platinum blonde mane and wore a black trench coat and had boot spurs and a cutie mark with them on it.

Another one was a stallion Pegasuses with a charcoal gray coat and a long messy blonde mane and wore a black tuxedo coat with chains and safety pins and had a boombox for a cutie mark.

The next was another stallion Pegasuses he was pale light blue with a blonde curly mane with long strands he wore a unusual patched up jacket with strange figures on it and had a winged wheel cutie mark.

The next was the mare she was a unicorn with a magenta coat and a dark brown mane and wore a white sundress with a dark blue captains coat and had a earring as a cutie mark.

The little colt was a earth pony with dark navy blue with a light brown mane and wore a small gray army coat on and didn't have a cutie mark.

The last one caught Fluttershy's eyes, A earth pony stallion with long black hair and a leather jacket that had a leopard on the right sleeve and had a arrow head cutie mark... it was him, the one from Fluttershy's dream... but in pony form.

The Elements of Harmony stared at the group of ponies that came out of The Exodus... not knowing what to do.
