I had finally come out of the hungoverness, I also made a mental note to NEVER EVER DO THAT AGAIN.

In my room i had time to think: I thought of the war going on, Celestia told me after I peeled my face from the table that the war went into full swing last night, and that thousands of troops were deployed only a few hours ago. I also thought of what I should do with my life, I wondered where I would go, I had no intention of staying here, I hated it, the rules were very strict, and I wasn't allowed to leave unless I was asked to, and there was very little to do, on top of that I was basically Equestria's nuclear arsenal, I would end up sitting for years until I was needed. I wanted to leave, I wanted to live my life on my own terms, fuck Celestia and her little war, fuck the griffins and changelings, I'm in charge of my own fucking life, I'm not someones trump card!
I tossed my few possessions into the trunk and grabbed a chair to knock out the guards.
I tried the door, locked, so I kicked it, 'Whack' the door didn't budge, 'whack' I heard wood start to buckle, 'Whack,' the door broke off its hinges and fell outwards. I grabbed the chair and whacked the first guard upside the head with it, he flopped back, I saw his friend pull out a radio.

"WE NEED BACKUP, WEAPON IS ATTEMPTING ESCAPE, I REPEAT WE NEED,'WHAM'" I hit him too, I flung the chair aside and sprinted down the hall, holding the trunk in my magic. I heard running, behind me, many hooves running,

"shit shit shit shit shit" I cursed under my breath, they had prepared for this, I needed to get to the garage, if I got there I could get away. I heard the perusing menagerie of hooves getting louder, and I started to hear it coming from more directions, I picked up the pace, I tried to put as much distance between me and them, I heard more still, how many of these fuckers are there?

Celestia Pov

I was holding day court, for once the nobles were cooperating, I was surprised that they hadn't broken out in a fit of yelling, then I heard the guard's comunication gems say something.

"....Backup....We need....'CRASH'" I only got bits of it, but the guards immediately closed in around me with their weapons out.

"Guards, what is happening?" I asked the wad of guards currently blocking me in.

"Weapon, escaped, we are protecting you of she comes here," I heard one of them say, weapon?....oh ponyfeathers, Nova was having another breakdown.

"I want every guard on the premises ready and waiting, don't let her leave the castle," I ordered my living wall, I heard one in the corner bark orders and return to his position at my side.

Nova Pov

"Fuck fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck fuuuuuuck" I said under my breath as I sprinted past the throne room, I saw guards at the entrance to the palace as well, one of them started yelling as soon as he saw me.

"STOP, YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!" I ignored him and continued to run. I felt like a bank robber as I bolted through the halls. I jumped down a flight of stairs and ran to where I thought the royal garage may be, then I heard yelling overhead, it sounded like a VERY pissed Celestia,

"ATTENTION ALL CASTLE STAFF, NOVA HAS ESCAPED, IF YOU SEE HER, NOTIFY ME IMMEDIATELY, DO NOT LET HER ESCAPE!" I still ran, as soon as i got to the garage I jumped in through the door and slammed it, I heat welded the lock shut and quietly moved away from the door. I walked to my truck, it was just as I left it, I put my trunk in the bed and closed the bed cover over it.

I heard yelling from the door I entered,

"We know you're in there, come out with your hands up!" the voice commanded, I got in the truck and started it, it rumbled to life once more. I shot the door outside with magic, it blasted apart and I floored it, the truck roared and took off towards the hole.

Outside I saw guards gathering,

"Oh FUUUUUUUUUCK" I drove through the line of them, they got tossed aside easily. I shifted up and drove, I headed toward the city's edge, overhead I saw Pegasi with spotlights, beaming right down on me. "Fuuuuhhhkkkk" I groaned as I continued my mad dash, out of the city. I saw the large fence nearing ahead, I smacked the pegasus mode and heard the truck groan, the wheels folded open and under, and the steering wheel unlocked, I could move it out and in now. I pulled back on the wheel as hard as I could and the now flying truck veered up, I kicked it over the fence and throttled up using a sliding lever next to the shifter, the truck jolted forward, I looked in the rear view mirror and saw a fucking swarm of guard behind me, their vehicles also taking off to continue the pursuit, and the Pegasi just continued to shine their lights on me. I looked out at the sky ahead of me, it was clear and sunny, I started to look around for some place to hide.

Rainbow Dash Pov

I was rudely interrupted from my extremely important nap by my phone, I pulled it from my pocket and looked at it. Little miss egghead had sent me a message, it had gone to all of our friends too.

'Everypony, come to the castle immediately, I have to show you something urgent.' I begrudgingly flopped off of my cloud, and lazily flapped my way to Twilight's place, "uhg this better be good," I grumbled to myself as I landed at the front door and loudly knocked, "Twilight, you woke me up this better be good or I'll...'Click....creeaaaakk," The door opened, I saw spike poke his head around.

"Twi's in the map table room, so's everyone else," he grumbled a bit about sleep afterward and walked off. I found my way to the room with the map table thingy and flopped my butt into my throne.

"Rainbow Dash! You're late, we've been waiting here for ten whole minutes!" she gave me her customary angry glare.

"Just get started already, you woke me from my extremely important nap, so this better be good!" I grumbled as I slouched further into the chair.

" I know it's an inconvenient time to call everyone here, but we have a major issue, Nova has ran away." Twi sat there to let it sink in, then AJ piped up.

"Whah Would she up an' run off lahk that, Ah thought she was gettin used ta 'questria?" Aj looked disappointed.

"That's the problem, not even Princess Celestia knows, although the map seems to want us somewhere, it might know where she's going," Twilight gestured to the map, all 6 of our cutie marks were circling around something in the badlands.

"Uh, Twi, it's pointing to the middle of nowhere, how does that have anything at all to do with your creation jailbreaking?" I sat up and looked at the map, it still had the same place marked.

"We can't be sure, it may be what we're looking for, or it could be Zebras having relationship issues, the point I'm trying to explain is that we need to go and look," Twi put on a confused face as she stared at the map intently.

"Umm, I could send some birds to go look....oh, Umm that is, if it's okay with you...." Fluttershy almost whispered her idea.

"That's a start, but we need other options," Twi continued her staring contest with the map, as Fluttershy cowered behind her hair.

"What if I throw a PARTYYY!, I haven't met a single pony who could possibly turn down a party!" Pinkie suddenly blurted.

"How are you going to find her, it isn't like she'll just know you invited her, or even want to come," I said to the crazy party mare.

"I'll use my pinkie sense to find her! Gottagobye!" Pinkie jumped up and was literally gone in a puff of smoke.

"Uhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm just gonna ignore that," everyone just nodded at my comment as awkward silence ensued.

Nova Pov,

The fuzz had finally broken off the chase, I looked at the landscape far below, there was the usual trees and grass, far ahead on the horizon there was a long grayish band, I had no idea what It was but I'd find out as soon as I got there, I looked at the dash clock, I'd been running for 3 hours, I looked back ahead and continued to drive, or as it was, fly the truck. Then I heard a 'Pop'

"Hiya!" I heard a voice next to me and I jumped,

"What the fuck! How...." I started as the pink mare stuck her hand in my mouth,"frrrrhhh?"

"Why'd ya run off silly! I thought you liked Celestia?"she removed her hand and looked at me expectantly.

"I don't, I'm leaving, anything else is my own damn buisiness" I adjusted course slightly, putting myself due south.

"Aww come on, tell auntie Pinkie, pwetty pwease?" she pouted in my face and I shoved her away.

"You're not my aunt, nor am I telling you jack diddly shit, so get outta my truck before I make you" I seethed in Pinkie's general direction.

"Well technically I am because Twilight created you, so she is your mother, and she considers me family, so I AM your auntie Pinkie, that means I can be the...."

"Do you ever fucking shut up!, I don't fucking care what you think, just leave me ALONE!" I shouted in her face causing her to stop for at least a tenth of a second.

" Hey don't yell at your Auntie Pinkie" she said with mock disappointment.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH, get out get out GET OUUUUT, you ignorant pink asshole!" I reached over and rolled down the window. I strapped in and went into an aileron roll, the truck shuddered in protest and I saw Pinkie flopping around loose in the cabin, she finally flew out the open window, I couldn't hear anything from her but the screeching wind, any speech was too garbled to hear. I rolled up the window once more and returned to my original task of flying towards the gray band on the horizon.

I was still wondering how Pinkie even got in the truck in the first place even an hour later, I also made a mental note to stay away from her at all costs, I looked at the dash, it had a few metal toggle switches I hadn't used before, at least they were labeled, whomever had built this thing knew what they were doing, the 4 swithches were labeled in order from left to right, Boost, airbrakes, gun, and parachute, none were really useful at the moment, but it was good to know.

I was nearing the, from what I could tell, gray desert, the change of scenery was abrupt, I looked down, what I saw was confusing, the land had a very clear dividing line, on the equestrian side, grass and trees, on the other, gray dirt, obviously not natural. I continued until I saw a clearing, it was only a few hundred feet from the border, good for looking at the unnatural phenomenon along it. I throttled back and came in for a landing, I swapped to ground mode again and heard the crunching of dirt under the tires. I felt satisfied beyond belief that I'd crossed the border, or at least what I hoped was the border between nations.

I was continuing to think of ways to find and return Nova to Celestia, nothing seemed practical at the moment, I was about to give up and just go look when I heard an abrupt 'Pop' and accompanying noise maker sounds.

"Whaaat is it Pinkie?" I asked the pink party pony standing behind me.

"I found your daughter! And a pony who can turn down a party." her emotions did an almost complete 180 as she finished the sentence.

"Wait, Daughter?, I've never had foals, you must be mistaken," I was utterly confused at Pinkie's logic.

"You made Nova Didn't 'cha? That makes you her mother!, it does, right!?" she asked in an enthusiastic but puzzled voice.

"Uhh, by your logic yes, but more importantly, what did you find?"

"She was flying her truck away from canterlot, but she was all angry and grumpy, I tried to get her to talk but she just got grumpier, then she got Suuuuper grumpy and did a barrel roll, then I fell out of the truck, and now i'm here!" I heard pinkie bounce to her seat and do something similar to sitting down.

"Anything else you would care to report?" I asked Pinkie with a crown

"Hmmmm, oh, she was headed due south, aaaaaaand, I gave her an invitation if she changes her mind...."while Pinkie continued to ramble on, I looked to Fluttershy.

"Fluttershy, I'm going to need you to find Nova, by my predictions you should be ideal to talk to her," Fluttershy looked at me with a look of fear, as per usual,"You have had the least contact, and you're approachable enough, sooo, could you please find her? I really, really don't want to be in more trouble from this..." I said with the biggest most pleading grin I could manage.

"Ohh, um, okay.....if you really want me to," Fluttershy managed to squeak out before falling silent once more.

"Great!, you might want to get packing, once you've called her down we'll come in and bring her back to Celestia, and everything will be good again, yay us, another happy ending" I sincerely hoped my thrown together plan would work.
