chapter 1 welcoming party

Daring do trotted through the jungle searching, it was always her searching for SOMETHING the lost temple for the sapphire stone, city of clouds, eternal flower, but now she finally had a break. She was trotting back home for a nice relaxing evening.

She took a right at the oddly shaped tree left at the boulder and then straight ahead until she got to her cottage. She knew those parts well it’s where she lives after all. She was almost there when she saw her door knocked down, there was someone in her house!

There were six ponies all looking around her house for something, caballerons men? “What are you all doing in here? Daring asked. “Uh Daring do?” a blue pegasus asked, she had a rainbow mane and a cloud with a rainbow lightning bolt.

Daring do had a photographic memory for cutie marks but hers wasn’t ringing a bell. “We didn’t do this we swear!” a purple alicorn stated. “What have you done to my house?” daring asked looking around. Her house was ransacked everything was upside down, wrinkled, or broken. “We didn’t do this mrs do” an orange pony said. Daring do picked up the rug under her

hooves. Where is it? She thought to herself. She had hidden an artifact, the ring of destiny to be exact in a book but she couldn’t find it.

“We’re awfully glad you’re alright!” the alicorn said as daring do moved books and vases out of the way.
Daring rushed to her desk throwing everything aside, where was it?

“Ok clearly this isn’t the best time but...” the blue pegasus started “...I just gotta say how much we all REALLY love your books!” she said, laughing awkwardly.

Daring was about to say something but as she looked at the pony she saw the book! The pegasus was standing on top of it. In half a second daring grabbed the book and set it on a pile of papers and books. She turned the code and placed her hoof on the horseshoe on the cover. The book opened on the binding side to reveal the ring of destiny.

“Phew!” daring do said picking it up and examining it carefully, “its safe” she then slid the ring in her cloak.

“ great! Maybe now would be a good time for me to ask you how we could move your next book along, chop chop!” daring do rolled her eyes at the pegasus. Daring do wrote her books AFTER she finished her missions and this mission was clearly not over but of course her ‘#1 fan’ didn’t realize that.

Suddenly daring do heard a thump on her roof, it was too early for santa claus. Daring do started straightening things up in her house when all of the sudden she saw 3 of caballaron's hench ponies in the reflection on her mirror. She quickly turned around but it was too late she was cornered.

She threw of her disguise of a bonnet glasses and her cloak. She stepped forward a little and put on her Trusty pith helmet and got ready to fend off her foe’s.

A mare with a greenish blue coat and an orange mane grabbed the ring it was a tug of war between daring and the henchpony, her enemy got it at first but then daring do kicked it out of his mouth.

She tried flying away but a hench pony grabbed her tail, she kicked him off and kept flying. Once again daring do was cornered, the greenish blue mare with the orange mane jumped at daring do but she kicked him off, the second one however jumped at her and she dodged him too late.

It was a battle, hoof to hoof, the ring came out and swung around daring do’s chandelier and into her fireplace. The henchpony’s were to scared to grab the ring with hot embers so daring do quickly grabbed her whip, hooked the ring and knocked over a pitcher to cool off the ring in one swift movement.

Daring do ran to the ring with the hench ponies hot on her tail. Once again daring do was flying around the house and went back into a corner with a chair to guard the ring from being stolen. All of the sudden she heard a voice.

“DARING DO!” she looked over at the window when she shouldn't have and the hench ponies lunged at her. Ring now out of her grasp rolled and bounced over to the door way when a brown pony with slicked back salt and pepper hair grabbed it he had a polkadot scarf and a white shirt.

“Many thanks daring do. As you probably surmised our earlier search for this treasure was…… unsuccessful, so kind of you to find it for us.” daring do was about to run after him but she heard a crack! It was her hoof, it had been hurt in the fight with caballeron’s men she fell to the floor.

“Give it back caballeron!” daring do said grimacing her teeth.

“That’s doctor caballeron to you” he sneered.

“So let me guess, ahuizotl has put you up to this your stealing the ring to give to him so his hold on the fortress of talancon will be good for eight centuries as foretold by prophecy!”

“CLOSE!....” caballaron said “....but no… i’m going to sell this to him, make a bundle, and retire from archeology in splendor.” daring do tried to go forward but she was still injured and his hench ponies were holding her back.

“CABALLARON YOU FOOL! YOUR DOOMING THE VALLEY TO EIGHT CENTURIES OF UNRELENTING HEAT!” daring do yelled but of course he was too stubborn to listen

“To market! Hench ponies” caballaron ordered and the hench ponies released daring do and followed caballaron out the door.

Daring do attempted to go after him but she couldn’t unless she cared to her wound first. She was putting her hoof in a sling when the six ponies from earlier walking in. “GASP! Are you ok?!” the blue pegasus said again offering her hoof.

“I got this.” daring do said smacking away the pegasus’ Hoof.

“Um she was just trying to help mrs do…” a yellow pegasus said.

“Daring do doesn’t need help…” she said putting on her pith helmet “...she handles her business herself.” she said flying after caballeron and his men.

All she needed was another pegasus to get caught and daring would be stuck having to save her. Much worse a fan. She’d be asking for autographs and pictures and such right as she was about to save Talancon. Daring would get distracted and would probably be caught or hurt by more of Caballerons men.

Daring do carefully was making her way to their campsite, crawling through bushes and hiding behind trees.

She heard hoof steps coming her way, she waited until it got closer…. Closer…. Closer…. And now! Daring do jumped from her hiding spot and tackled the intruder. Well not intruder since it wasn’t her house but it was her bush and anyone who got near would pay. She put her pith helmet over their head and tackled them to the ground.”AGH!.......Guh …...ow!.... Stop!” the pony took off her pith helmet to reveal the pegasus back from her house with the rainbow mane.

“Oh, its just you” daring said as she put her pith helmet back on.

“WAIT!...” the pegasus said “don’t go!” the pegasus said smiling. Daring do rolled her eyes and kept walking getting closer and closer to the campsite of caballeron and his men. Daring do crawled along as close to the ground as she could get.

She hid behind a tree for a few seconds then kept crawling along. When all the sudden the pegasus popped out from one of the bushes. “I am suuuuuuuch a huge fan…. Heh heh heh heh” daring do sighed and kept moving.

“Wait wait wait! Let me help you!...” the pegasus begged as she grabbed darings collar. “….i promise i can be a huge huge help if you just give me a chance!” she finished straightening out her shirt collar and tilting her hat.

"I. work. Alone.” daring said as she passed the crazy fan.

“But why won’t you let me team up with you?..... Just this once?” she kept begging.

“My work always involves secrets, and since you never know who you can trust its best never to trust anypony.” daring said making it clear to get lost

“but just because you can’t trust some doesn’t mean nopony can be trusted!” the pegasus said

“Look i don’t have time to argue” daring said annoyed.

"neither do i lets go!” the pegasus said flying ahead.

“Sigh i can’t believe i’m even talking to her.” daring said under her breath.

Author's Note

thanks for reading

chapter 2 no help at all

It was nighttime now and daring do spotted the campsite with her new ‘partner’ they were all sitting eating hay.

“Looks like they decided to have an early dinner before making their way back down the hill to the market place in town” the pegasus stated. Daring do scooped up some mud and spread it across the lower part of her face.

“Oh i see! You’re gonna ambush them like you did in book four at the hayrabian caves!...” the pegasus said as daring do flattened her hat

“Or maybe you’ll do that mean trick you did in book three, where you swoop in and knock down with one swing! Or maybe…” daring do gave her a stare. “... or maybe…. I’ll be quiet now… just watching very quietly heh heh.. Shhh”

daring do put leaves on the part when she put the mud so they stuck to her face. “So what kind of ambush are you gonna use then?” the pegasus asked curiously.

Daring do held up a bag full to the brim with bits. “Wow!” the pegasus said staring at the bag.

Daring do carefully approached the hench ponies and caballeron and laid down the bag. They stared at it in awe. “ i have been lead to believe you have in your Possession and item of significant importance, that might be….. For sale” daring do said in an accent.

“Oh um…. Well i did have another buyer lined up but he’s not here so…. Sounds like we have a deal” caballeron said holding out the ring.

“Grrrrrrrrrraaaaaawww!!!!!!!”

somepony yelled or rather not some PONY,

“CABALLERON!” a blue creature said knocking down trees, he had the head of a jackal and a hand on his tail, with sharp teeth and lots of gold on his wrists and on his neck.

“Ahuizotl!” daring do said under her breath.

“THE RING!” Ahuizotl commanded. With one swift movement caballeron threw him the ring and ran off with the bag of bits daring do offered.

The ring fell to the ground, daring do and Ahuizotl looked at the ring then each other then back at the ring.

Daring do jumped forward grabbing the ring as her fake beard and her hat came off, she had the ring in her muzzle and Ahuizotl didn’t and that was all that mattered.

Ahuizotl yelled angrily and jumped forward for the ring. “The ring daring do….” ahuizotl said crawling forward like a cat “...... give it.. To ME!” Ahuizotl slammed on the ground where daring do was, luckily she did a backflip right before he hit her.

“ now Ahuizotl,....” daring do said “you know i love you but i can’t give you the ring until i’ve properly proposed.”

Daring do then put the ring around her neck. Ahuizotl started to laugh “interesting because my friends here have a proposal of their own” ahuizotl then snapped his tail finger and a bobcat, tiger, cheetah and panther jumped out from behind him, a white house cat then walked up in between ahuizotl and the tiger, hissing and baring its claws.

Daring do was backed into a corner, “bring it!” daring do said holding her ground.

The panther was the first to run up to her at full speed she hit it right in the jaw and it fell backward.

Then the tiger jumped forward but daring do jumped up and daring do landed on its head, she then kicked the cheetah out of her way and it was tooth and claw with the bobcat, daring was kicking away a tiger then a bobcat. She kicked and punched all the cats away when she heard someone screaming she looked up to see the blue pegasus in ahuizotl’s tail hand.

Daring do was staring when all the wild cats tackled her and tied her up, she was defenseless. The tiger held her up in his teeth.

“Don’t worry daring do! I’ll come help you!” the pegasus said before ahuizotl threw her back to the jungle

“Don’t bother!” daring do said as the tiger carried her behind ahuizotl “you’ve already helped plenty!”

chapter 4 ruining Ahuizotls plan

The ritual had already begun.

There where 4 hench ponies on either side slamming their spears in a rhythm. There were stairs that led up to a pole with 12 golden rings of different sizes on it.

The last ring was about to be placed on it to have eight centuries of unrelentless heat.

Ahuizotl laughed evilly

“Drop the ring owie…..whatever your name is”

the orange pony from daring’s house said racing to the monster with the four other ponies from earlier.

“Place the ring…. Quickly!” ahuizotl said to two of the hench ponies.

The pink pony ran over grabbed the ring and was using it as a hula hoop. She then passed the ring before ahuizotl could grab it.

“GET IT!” ahuizotl screamed to the hench ponies.

The orange pony caught the ring then passed it before the hench ponies got even close.

A hench pony intercepted it and ran off then passed it to ahuizotl but was intercepted by a yellow pegasus.

Ahuizotl ran after the pony like a raging bull.

The purple alicorn got the ring on her horn and ran then teleported away when two hech ponies where running at her

As the 5 ponies where running around daring do and the pegasus -who’s name was rainbow dash- sneaked around.

“Follow me!” daring do said to rainbow.

The ring was still being passed around as rainbow and daring grabbed the top ring and tried to get off the pole.

“help me get all these rings off!” daring do said to rainbow.

Five rings had been taken off and ahuizotl still didn’t have the one he needed.

“if we can remove the giant ring at the bottom the whole fortress will collapse!”

the two pegasi lunged at getting off the ring “was this your plan all along?” rainbow asked

"i had to find a way to get into the fortress” daring answered

“you did it on purpose?..... But…… but i thought” rainbow tried to say but she was lunging too much to finish

“i didn’t count on how heavy these rings would be though…..” daring said “i guess having a little help can be handy sometimes”

rainbow smiled as she finished her sentence.

The final ring was still being thrown around when ahuizotl finally got the ring he laughed but as soon as he got the ring rainbow dash and daring do almost had the final ring off and the fortress was collapsing.

“STOOOOP HERRRRRR” ahuizotl yelled

“you can flap too y’know!” daring do said.

“Ponies! Run! This place is going down!” rainbow yelled to her 5 friends. As soon as the ring came off the pole turned into sand. The fortress collapsed luckily everypony was out.

DARING DO! I WILL HAVE MY REVENGGGGGEEEE!!!!!!!” ahuizotl yelled after daring do.

Daring threw the ring and it broke into 13 pieces.

“I never would have done this without you rainbow dash” daring do said offering her a hoof bump rainbow dash gave her a hug instead.

“By the way daring these are my friends twilight sparkle, pinkie pie, fluttershy, rarity, and applejack.” rainbow dash said introducing her friends to daring

“thanks but i don’t have time for introductions! I have a book to finish!”

And so talancon was saved from eight centuries of heat thanks to daring do! And her friend. and partner. rainbow dash!

THE END

chapter 3 rescuing daring

Daring do was carried to ahuizotl’s temple where his hench cats locked her in a room. Her hooves where strapped on cinder blocks and below her was a pool of water with piranhas swimming around without a care in all of equestria. This was probably the only time daring do has ever wished to be a piranha.

“Surrender now ahuizotl!.....” daring do said trying to get her hooves free “...or i’ll be forced to take you down!” she said struggling to get out of the straps even more.

Ahuizotl just laughed “oh daring do! I will so miss your amusing laughter of jokes. Now i must leave to commence the ring placing ceremony to unleash eight hundred years of unrelenting sweltering heat!!!” then ahuizotl pulled a chain and the water below daring do started to fill up as water gushed from a spout.

Ahuizotl left laughing hard and waving goodbye with his hand tail.

Daring do lunged more and more when clink! The cinder block on her right back hoof came out of the wall but the cinder block was still stuck on her hoof and the piranhas where jumping up hungrier than ever

Daring do pulled and pulled until her left back hoof cinder block came out of the wall as well.

She lunged and her other right hoof came out she lunged with her left hoof getting ready to fly once it came out of the wall.

The water was getting higher and higher until clink! The final hoof came out. Daring do flapped harder then ever before trying to avoid going into the deadly water to face her doom!

She was getting lower and lower and her wings were getting tired. She was about to go in when

“Gotcha!” the blue pegasus swooped in and flew her up trying to get to the entry way “You can flap too y’know!” she lunged daring do flapped her wings and they made it to the entryway.

There daring do slammed the cinder blocks until they broke on the ground freeing her hooves. “ i was just bout to save myself y’know” daring do said matter-of-factly

“of course” the pegasus said “ i just thought you might need this” she finished sliding daring’s pith helmet to her.

“Have i mentioned yet that i work alone?” daring do said putting the hat on again.

Teamwork was one thing she hated, if they got caught she would have to save them and if she got caught and they saved her she would owe them.

“ have i mentioned yet that you’re lucky i don’t?” the pegasus answered.

Daring do sighed then gave the pegasus a friendly smile.
