Daring Do: And the Divine Crown of the End

The next day, Diamond decides to go to Daring Do’s place, and maybe talk to her about yesterday. She was about to knock, but she started to have doubts on what to do.

Should I? I mean, she did tell me not to see her again, but.- Diamond thought, but then started to hear a Daring Do voice in the distance.

What? But.. I thought she was home… hmm.. something’s not right here. Diamond thought as she looks through the window to see if she was there, but she wasn’t. Diamond then started to get worried, and flies to go find her by the sound of Daring Do’s voice. Daring Do hasn’t gone far, Diamond has found Daring Do tied up close to the Hench ponies, Withers and PickPocket with Dr.Caballeron in front of them. Diamond listens to their conversation on why he captured Daring Do.

“Your not gonna get the information out of me, Caballeron.” said Daring Do as she tries to struggle.

“We shall soon see about that.” said Dr.Caballeron with an evil smirk.

Diamond gasps as she heard on what's going on. She then thinks on how to save her. When she spotted a rock, she started to have an idea. She flew to the rock on the ground, grabs it, and hides in a bush close to them. Diamond throws a rock a few feet away from them. As soon as it made the crunching sound, Dr.Caballeron and his hench ponies looks around to see what was that noise.

“What was that?” Withers asked.

“It's probably Diamond-Chi!” Pickpocket exclaimed.

“Find her, they both have the information we need.” said Dr.Caballeron.

Dr.Caballeron and his hench ponies splits and starts looking for Diamond, leaving Daring Do all alone tied up. When Diamond saw that they left, now it was her chance to get Daring Do and get out of there. Diamond flies and grabs Daring Do and flies her to a safe place far away from Caballeron and lands, putting Daring Do down, and uses her magic to free her from the ropes.

“Are you ok?” Diamond asked in concerned.

“*groans* I thought I told you that I don’t want to see you again.” said Daring Do with a glare.

“Your welcome for the save, if it wasn’t for me, you would’ve been tortured by Caballeron, making you tell him where the crown is.” said Diamond with a smirk.

Daring Do groans and looks away, but Diamond did have a good point, if it wasn’t for her, she would’ve tell him where it is, and Equestria would be in grave danger. She then started to feel bad on what she said to Diamond yesterday, so she looks Diamond with a feel bad look on her face.

“*sighs* Diamond… I… I’m sorry for what i’ve said yesterday, I should’ve dealt with it, instead of getting mad about it, and yell at in front of your face.” Daring Do apologized.

“It’s ok, Daring Do, it wasn’t your fault that you got mad, needed to lose steam, totally understand, but try not to do it in front of my face again ,ok?” Diamond asked with a little smirk on her face.

“*chuckles* sure thing. But I don’t get it though, after what i’ve said to you, why did you save me?” Daring Do asked.

“The words you said might have hurt, yesterday, and it got me upset, but that doesn’t stop me from protecting Equestria at any cost, even devin ones like Caballeron.” said Diamond.

“What are you saying?” Daring Do asked confusingly.

“*sighs* What i’m trying to say is, just because somepony was mean to you, doesn’t mean they won’t stop coming to help. Mean or not mean, I still come no matter what.” said Diamond.

Daring Do then started to smile confidently.

“You know, Diamond… that’s one thing I like about you.” said Daring Do.

“R-Really?” Diamond asked confusingly.

“Yeah.. cause’ your always there for your friends, and be there whenever they needed help, and not to mention love going on adventures.” said Daring Do with a smirk.

Diamond smirks as well.

“That’s what I also like about you, you love going adventures as much as I do, but mostly trying to protect the treasures in Equestria, from the sellers, or try to use it to hurt the ponies in Equestria.” said Diamond.

Daring Do got a little shocked, but... surprised at the same time.

“That’s the first time anypony has said to me.” said Daring Do. “You know, don’t tell anypony, but you and me should do this more often, you protect the ponies, and I protect the treasure, you and me should do this more often.”

Diamond then smiles on what Daring Do said to her.

“Come on, we should get out of here, before Caballeron finds us.” said Daring Do.

“My thoughts exactly.” said Diamond.

They both started heading to Daring Do’s place. After a few minutes of walking, Daring Do then realizes that she wanted to know why is Diamond-Chi heading for her home when she was captured by Caballeron.

“Uh, Diamond?” Daring Do asked as she looks at Diamond.

“Yeah?” said Diamond.

“Why were you going to my place, even though I was captured?” Daring Do asked.

“Well because… wait, how did you know I was going to your place?” Diamond asked as she realizes she somehow knows that she was going to her place.

“Heh, I had my ways. So, why were you going there in the first place?” Daring Do asked.

“Well… I wanted to make sure that you were ok, and… and…” said Diamond started to get nervous.

“And what? Is there something wrong?” Daring Do asked.

“Nothing is wrong it’s just… *sighs* There was another treasure to it other than the crown.” Diamond revealed.

“What?” Daring Do stops and looks at her with a little shock.

“Yeah, when I woke up the next morning, the book was actually glowing, when I looked in it, turned to the page that glowed, it said that there’s another treasure that controls the crown.” Diamond explained. “Guess I didn’t notice it, til’ I read the rest of it.”

What they didn’t know is that 2 of Caballeron’s henchponies Withers and Pickpocket was spying on them, hearing the whole thing.

“Hmm… does it say on where to find it?” Daring Do asked.

“Yeah.. its all.. Well.. *sighs* You know that temple that Rainbow Dash and Quibble Pants lead Caballeron to?” Diamond asked started to remember.

“You mean the Lost Temple of Chicomoztoc?” Daring Do asked.

“That’s it. There’s another temple close to it. It’s really not that far from there.” said Diamond. “We can get to it if we hurry.”

Daring Do smirks.

“Then there’s no time to lose.” said Daring Do as she runs for the temple.

Diamond runs with Daring Do to the temple. Withers and PickPocket evil smirks and heads back to Caballeron. Caballeron and Biff comes back, but didn’t find Diamond.

“Where could she be?” Biff asked.

“She already got Daring Do free.” said ??

Withers and PickPocket got back to them.

“But there is another treasure to the crown.” said PickPocket.

“There is, is there?” Caballeron asked with an evil smirk.

“Yeah, she said it’s close to the Lost Temple of Chicomoztoc, not that far from there, but we do need to get there first if we want to get it.” said Withers.

“Great job, you two.” said Caballeron.

Rogue comes back with the information on Diamond’s weakness.

“I-It took me a while to find it.. but I got the information on her weakness.” Rogues pants.

“More than great, what is it?” Caballeron asked.

Rogue whispers to Caballeron on what it is. As soon as Caballeron heard it, he was shocked a little, but then evil smirks.

“Oh she is, is she?” Caballeron asked. “And since she would mostly know where it is, this would be more easier than I thought. *evil cackles*” he said.
