Scene 30- S.O.S!!

Voyage Of The Unforgotten!
Chapter 30- S.O.S!!

Sunset's P.O.V

It was quiet. Peacefully quiet. Well, not to mention the sea waves were rolling. I also heard seagulls squawking to one another. I opened my eyes and the bright, shimmery sun beamed on my eyes. I looked around and saw the blue sky. I rubbed my head and got up and saw sand all around me and the blue crystal ocean. I looked down and saw a leg pointing out in a very oddly position.

“Ouch! Is that leg mine?” I wondered. I touched the leg and then cracked it and then I heard someone else scream. I recognized the voice easily.

“Oh my gosh Applejack! I'm so sorry! Our skin complexions look awfully similar.”

“Hnng, it's alright. Ow!”

“Here let me help-”

“Nope! You've done quite enough. Hmm, where are we?”

“I dunno but the sand here sure is soft!!” We heard Pinkie and looked at her and saw her making a sand angel. There was sand in my hair and then I brushed some off. I realized that there was broken wood and flowers on the sand near us.

“Awww man! The boat got destroyed!” I sighed. I saw a pair of glasses and something gold next to it. I picked up the gold thing and it was the compass.

“Hey! I found it! I found the compass!!”

“Good for you darling. Ugh, this sand is drenching my poor hair. I look atrocious!” Rarity cried. Twilight started coughing and then took her glasses from the ground.

“So, we're all together. That's a good thing.” Applejack smiled and dug up the sand to find her hat.

“Wait! Where's Dashie and Soarin?!” Pinkie started to freak out. “Oh gosh! They could be hurt! Or even worse! A band of creepy people took them and made them into sacrifices!! Or yet! They are probably all alone, with nobody to talk to and they are starving themselves and they are going to eat one another because of how hungry they are!!”

“Uh….no comment, whatsoever!”

That's when Monoko was running to us and was barking. I know he was saying something but we couldn't understand him.

“Wait Monoko!” Fluttershy was running behind him and she waved at us. “Monoko knows where Rainbow Dash and Soarin are.”

“Well where are they little buddie?” I smiled.

Rainbow Dash's P.O.V

Seagulls squawking and I heard the ocean waves flow roughly. I opened my eyes and then someone below me was grunting in pain. I looked down and saw Soarin rubbing his head and then his emerald eyes locked onto mine. We both blinked for what seemed like hours.

“Oh gosh you're beautiful face.” I heard him say. I couldn't help but chuckle a bit. “This would be a perfect moment but you landed on my, nggh…” He tried to say but blushed in reply and then groaned in pain. I looked down and then blushed too.

“Oh so sorry Soarin. My bad!”

I got off of him and realized I landed on him after the storm. I rubbed my head and helped him up.

“Wow, nice ocean. Isn't it just beautiful?” Soarin started to stretch. His clothes were messed up and so were mine. I couldn't help but die of laughter when seaweed was stuck on his head.

“Hahahahaha! Here let me help you!” I smiled and took the seaweed off his head.

“Ha, thanks. So, where are the others?”

“I hope they are around. Anyone can get lost here.”

We both heard barking and then once I turned around, Monoko jumped into my arms.

“Hey Monokokins! You okay? I was so worried about you!”

“There they are!!” Twilight came running towards us. Soon everyone came and they hugged us.

“There you guys are! Me and Soarin were wondering where you guys were.” I yawned and then stretched a bit.

“Well, we were looking for you both! I'm so happy you guys were okay.” Sunset smiled.

“Hmmm, where are we?” Soarin asked.

“Wherever we are I don't care to be honest, as long as I keep doing cartwheels in the sand!” Pinkie giggled and started doing cartwheels in the sand.

I looked at the blue ocean and how the waves were flowing majestically and then at the palm trees and how they swayed with the direction of the wind and then at my toes how they were tickled by the sand.

“We appear to be on an island.” Fluttershy answered Soarin's question.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!” Twilight screamed throughout the whole island. “We're lost! Of course we're lost!! Why wouldn't we be lost?! We're never going to find Gemporia at this rate. And the compass has water in it so we have no use of direction! We're doom!! Doomed I tell you!!! WAAAAAAAA!!!” Twilight screamed in anger and then Sunset smacked her right in the face.

“Listen to me! We're going to make it! Trust me. We've got this together!” Sunset smiled at her.

“Sunset’s right! Let's find some place to rest for the day. I'm exhausted!” Rarity yawned. “Also, this heat is drenching my hair.”

“Ugh you always say that!!!” Applejack and I replied at the same time.

“Alright guys don't go getting some negative vibes now. Let's go and make some shelter.” Crystal nodded her head.

That night…

“Sorry guys, but this was the only food I found..” Soarin scratched the back of his neck and gave a sheepish smile.

“Hmmm, are these berries safe to eat?” Twilight asked inspecting the berry and then she sniffed it some more. I on the other hand, was playing with my ‘plate’ of berries. The so called plate was a leaf. I sighed and placed the berries on the sand and my tummy started to grumble.

“Heck if I know...look you guys I'm trying hard to be the provider around here.” Soarin sighed and sat next to Applejack as he was mumbling to himself.

“Well, no one is asking you to be. Besides, you're doing a great job being a sweet gentlemen like you are.” Fluttershy smiled while drinking some of the coconut.

“Ooohh is that fresh?!” Pinkie asked Fluttershy. She nodded her head to reply and Pinkie took a coconut herself and started drinking from it.

“Ahhh! Delicious! Anywho, Flutters is right Soarin! All that matters is you're doing your best!” Pinkie smiled at him but he didn't budge.

“Yeah, um, thanks…”

It got quiet and Applejack started the fire and then started to surround the area with warmth.

“Everybody warm enough?” She asked us all as she smiled. We all nodded our heads but across from me, I could see Soarin wasn't feeling good. I bit my lip and then Twilight nudged my shoulder.

“Ow! What the-”

“Shhh. Why don't you go talk to Soarin?”

“Why me?”

“He respects you and he'll listen to you. Besides he's your best friend. I'm sure what he needs right now is his bestie. Now go comfort him.” Twilight whispered in my ear. I looked at her and then at Soarin. I smiled and got up from my seat and then I squeezed myself between Applejack and Soarin. I placed my feet against my body and then looked at him.

“Look, no one is judging about the food tonight. Honestly, I enjoyed myself. The coconuts were a delicious beverage.” I chuckled to make him smile.

“And the berries?”

“Well, I didn't know if they were poisonous or not so I didn't wanna eat them and get sick.”

“Right..”

The only thing I heard was the cracking of the fire against the wood and also the breeze of the wind that night. No one spoke after Soarin's statement. Everyone looked at one another and looked back at the fire.

“So uh, how bout a song?” Applejack smiled sheepishly and got her ukulele out her duffel bag.
“Pass..” Pinkie sighed. Everyone else nodded alongside with Pinkie. Applejack placed her ukulele back in her bag and sighed. After what seemed like hours, someone spoke up.

“Well darlings, I hate to break up the silence but I'm going to rest my eyes. Today was a long day for all of us. We all should get some rest.” Rarity yawned as she was going into her sleeping back. She placed her sleeping mask over her eyes and went straight to sleep. Everyone went into their sleeping bags and started to snore off to sleep. It was just me and Soarin still sitting there.

“Well Dashie you better get some sleep. I'll be find on my own..” He sighed as he took some water and put out the fire and started unzipping his sleeping bag. I bit my lip and then I smiled and blushed. I went to Soarin and kissed his cheek. We both blushed madly and I looked straight into his eyes.

“Thanks for dinner tonight.” I smiled softly. He smiled and blushed even more.

“You're welcome. Like I said, I have to be the provider. I'm the only male here.”

“So that doesn't mean anything. I'm sure I can help you as well. We each take turns each night, deal?”

“Hehehe deal. G'night Dashie.”

“Good night Soarin.”

The next evening…

“Sorry...again…” Soarin smacked his forehead and grunted. He gave Applejack some berries again and she bit her lip. This evening we had berries. Again…

“It's alright sugarcube! Ya did yer best! And we're all thankful aren't we?”

We all groaned in response and Pinkie laid out like a flat poptart about to be put in the toaster. Even thinking of pop tarts made my stomach rumble. The strawberry goodness and the frosting on the outside. The hot fudge sundae one really hit the spot. Ah don't even get me started on the brown sugar cinnamon one! Aaaa!!!!! Heaven in little pastries!

“Uh Dash? You okay there?” Sunset asked breaking my train of thought.

“I NEED MY POPTARTS!!!” I hollered out loud and I started to lick my lips and shake a bit too. My right eye was twitching so much that Pinkie got up from her lying position and started to poke at it. I held onto her hand firmly and cried out:

“WHERE IS YOUR BAG OF SWEETS?!?! GIMME A POPTART!!”

“Woah relax! I'm sure it's around here somewhere. I hope it didn't get washed up with our other luggage during that storm. If so, the little fishes will be lucky!”

“Um fishes can't eat candy..” Fluttershy spoke up while popping a berry in her mouth.

“Well, I can't find it. Remember all our luggage got drenched in the storm. Hehehe, besides I ate all the candy when we were leaving the changeling hive….”

“You….WHAT?!?!?!”

“Dashie take it easy!”

“NO I WANT MY POPTARTS!!!”

“WELL YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET ANY!!!”

We both started arguing about food and then Soarin got so upset he screamed in anger.

“Shut it! Both of you!! This is ridiculous! Anyway, we're going to be eating the berries since we don't have any other food to eat.”

“Actually there is another way. If we go into the jungle and hunt for food. Then we'll get meat!” I smacked my lips together thinking if we hunted a pig! Ah we'll have bacon and delicious barbecued ribs! Ah! And also-

“Uh earth to Rainbow Dash!” Twilight snapped her fingers in my face.

“Oops sorry guys just dreaming. Sorry I'm starving! And berries aren't going to fill up my hungry wittle tummy. Look, even Monoko is hungry too.” I looked down on him and he curled in the ball and started whimpering. I started to pet his head and usually would bark but he kept whimpering this time around.

“See? He's hungry. Don't worry buddy. We'll find something for ya to eat.”

We all looked around and it was just plain quiet. That's when Soarin smiled at me.

“Dashie! You got a bow and arrow?”

“Yeah I do but it's my mom's. Why'd ya ask?”

“We could use that for food!”

“Ewww eating a bow and arrow? First of all, how we gonna divide that for the 8 of us. 9 including Monoko and 10 if Crystal wanna eat too. And second, I don't know where Dashie’s hands been.”

“No Pinkie. A use to get food. We could that bow and arrow to hit some fish in the water and take it out and eat it!”

“And Ah could make a fire to roast the fish. Even better! Good idea Soarin!” Applejack smiled at him. Soarin felt proud of himself and blushed a bit.

“No need AJ, I just thought of that idea. I'm sure we can try it out.”

“We'll see how much fish we can get. For starters, let's do this!” I replied and saw a fish in the ocean and was about to use my bow and arrow and then someone's hand blocked me from getting the fish.

“No!!!”

“Ugh Fluttershy!!” I groaned and pouted in her face.

“Sorry but we can't kill such innocent creatures. They deserve to live and be free.”

“Well I deserve to live too! And I'm hungry!”

“W-Well, I'm sure we can find another way to receive food.”

“NO THERE ISN'T!!!”

“Rainbow Dash relax! Look, maybe Dash is right. What if we go into the-” Sunset spoke up quietly but Rarity and Twilight interrupted her.

“NO!!!”

“Wait Pinkie. What are you doing?”

Pinkie took a stick and started writing the words “S.O.S” on the sand and then decorated it on the sides.

“Ugh, what does it look like I'm doing? I'm trying to get out of here!”

“I've been trying to do that since we've got here! If someone didn't pay attention.” Twilight sighed.

“So you're basically blaming this on Dashie?!” Soarin grunted while stepping forward to Twilight.

“Yes I am! We've could've been still on the ocean voyaging if it wasn't for her!”

“No! It wasn't her fault! It was ours! If we weren't asking about the compass and asking Dashie how to navigate, then WE wouldn't be in this mess!”

“He does have a point darling. Maybe if we all take a deep breath and decide whether or not we're going inside the jungle to find some food or better yet, if we find some shelter.” Rarity walked towards the tall, slick palm trees.

“I agree with Rarity. Let's go.”

“Wait.”

We all turned around and saw Fluttershy whimpering.

“Do we have to kill an animal for food?”

“Yes.” I sharply responded while going into the jungle. Sunset yanked my hair and then pulled me back.

“Well, I was thinking maybe if we find some um fruits. M-Maybe we can eat them. I-If that's what you guys wanna do…”

“Don't worry Flutters. We'll eat what we can find!” Pinkie bounced her way inside and she was gone.

We all sighed and held hands and started walking inside the jungle.
