The Quest

"So what was it like doing all those crazy stunts?" asked Rainbow Dash. "Well I don't think about it at the time, but the thrill of adventure was worth all of those years trying to get my cutie mark." answered Daring. "You had trouble getting your cutie mark?" asked Scootaloo " Yeah, I was a blank flank for the longest time. When I was a filly all of my friends had their cuitie marks way before I did. You see I was always a mischief maker I liked to go into the ever-free forest all of the time I could. So one day I thought that my cutie mark was exploring, but then I found a treasure map as I followed it I enjoyed every minute of it, when I fount the treasure (which was a plate of cookies with frosting in the shape of a big X and treaser chests) my mother pionted at my flank I had so much fun that I had forgotten to check. And there was my cutie mark. So heres a tip focus on the things that you're good at and that you love to do." As Daring finished Twighlight stopped the group. "We're here!" As the group stopped to gaze upon the ruins of the ancient city Spike whistled in awe. "You can whistle that again." said RD. Spike whistled again. "Now that right there is a TLC." said AJ "Tender Loving Care?" asked Fluttershy "No Totally Lost Cause." AJ answered. Scootaloo giggled at this comment. The group walked into the lost community of Zebrica. Even Rianbow Dash was walking Instead of hovering. She was walking alongside her hero catching her if she ever stumbled which was always followed by a polite thanks and a squeal in return. With Twighlight using her magic horn to light the way, the trek of ponies wondered through the abandened society.

Meanwhile, a pegusus by the name of Sky Watcher hovered nearby. After staring down for what seemed like hours, he darted back and away from the ancient ruins and landed near an unusual clump of leaves. Sky tapped a nearby tree. With a moaning creak the leaves moved and eventually opened to reveal a narrow entrance of a tunnel. As he walked down the tunnel he felt the air around him grow colder and colder. He eventually came up to a large door. As he hesitated to knock a moaning voice, that no regular pony would be able to make, sent chills down Sky's spine. "Enter" Gosh Thought Sky This guy seems to know everything. He trotted into the vast underground cavern. "I have news." Said Sky " The group you predicted to come has arrived."...."Exellent."
