Twilight looked through the drawings as she kept thinking about Moondancer's disappearance. It was one thing for a foal to go missing, but one of her closest foalhood friends? It didn't make any sense to her. She kept looking through the pile until eventually coming upon one that peeked her interest. It was a circle with an X through it saying, "ARK AWAITS".

"Ark? What ark?" Twilight asked herself before looking through the drawings again for anything related to an ark

There wasn't anything in the drawings talking about an ark, but then she looked at Moondancer's diary. The other thing the police and guards gave her to look at. Flipping through the pages Twilight came upon an entry that was just an S drawn hugely and hastily from the looks of things. Why would Moondacer write just an S? The next page was just a regular diary entry. Then, it dawned upon Twilight the position of the S. That wasn't an S. It was the sign of sigma. But maybe it wasn't even sigma. Taking a closer look, it actually looked more like stigmata.

But what did stigmata have to do with an ark? Twilight then began to look through the footage on the cameras and from what she saw, a lot it was recorded during some kind of rainstorm. Rainstorm. Ark. Stigmata. There seemed to be some kind of pattern. But that needed further research. For now Twilight began to take a closer look at the footage Moondancer seemed to have taken. Not a lot seemed to show her face, which made sense to Twilight since Moondancer always had been the sort to take footage rather than be in it. But what was weird was a lot of it seemed to be her recording her daily routine. But why?

It wasn't until she found one piece of footage that wasn't in the rain that Twilight found something. The footage was somewhat blurry and the audio was missing, but Twilight could've sworn she saw a faceless pony in the background wearing a black suit and tie. It probably was a technical glitch as these new portable video cameras were prone to glitching out sometimes because of how they used data to record instead of tapes or film rolls. But Twilight did make a mental note of it either way just in case she found another instance of a faceless pony.

Twilight immediately stopped when she heard a page turn. She looked to see Moondancer's Diary had turned seemingly on its own to the next page. Though next page did contain a very interesting note. "SEES ME" "I CAN'T SEE IT". Twilight then turned to the next page to see there was a similar style. "IT HURTS" "FEELS LIKE DROWNING". It hurts... feels like drowning. Twilight then turned another page. ..... Nothing. Twilight turned another page. "everything's fine". This was the last entry before Moondancer disappeared. That last entry was clearly a lie. Everything wasn't fine. Something seemed to be stalking Moondancer, but she couldn't see who or what it was. On top of that, something was hurting her, and that pain felt like as if she was drowning. There seemed to also be a strange amount of rain symbolism on top of a mentioning of an ark and the stigmata symbol. Twilight wrote down a single note and put it to her bed before putting up the drawings, diary, and camera and heading to bed. Maybe Minuette would provide some of the answers she needed.
