The lost Hero

Seven o'clock in the morning. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

Rainbow Dash woke up. She was ready to attempt her escape plan. She went towards the cafe with her friends. She saw a letter. She read it.

Dear Rainbow Dash,

We are going to come save you. We are currently coming your way.

From, Blazing Skies.

"Okay guys, we need to just do whatever until Blazing Skies comes to save us," whispered Rainbow Dash.

"Sounds good," said the members of the Friendship Squad.

"So... Who wants sandwiches?!" asked Sunny Skies cheerfully. They all enjoyed the sandwiches. It was a great morning. Derpy wasn't there, but maybe she was just on break.

Seven thirty o'clock in the morning. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

Blazing Skies was in a room with two other ponies. One named Soaring Clouds, and the other named Silver.

"So, what the plan, Blazing?" asked Soaring Clouds.

"You're going to fly your airplane, and me and Silver will sneak into the building. for further instructions, use this manual. Any questions?" Soaring Clouds and Silver nodded. "Okay, and remember, try not to accidentally crash into the ground."

"Okay." said Soaring Clouds. "I HAVE ran out of fuel though. Who's the one making the fuel this time?"

"It's a scientist named - Blazing Skies looked at some paperwork. The paperwork was covered in the work : 'muffin' - this person didn't file her paperwork correctly! Hopefully she is a good scientist, and this failure to file paperwork correctly doesn't mean that she's bad at creating fuel for your airplane," said Blazing Skies.

"I hope so Blazing Skies. i hope so," sighed Soaring Clouds.

Eight o'clock in the morning. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

"I hope they are doing well, i don't even want to know what would happen if they didn't save us before Twilight Sparkle's 'big surprise,'" said Rainbow Dash. She shuddered at the thought. When an evil villain has a "big surprise" for you, you know it's not a good thing.

"Hey! I found a Daring Do book!" exclaimed rainbow dash. She read the title. "Daring do and the Emperor's Reign." she started reading the book...

In the Evergreen Jungle, Daring Do jumped from tree to tree towards the castle of the Twilight Amulet. Covered in vines, the castle had been torn apart by time. the only significance left of the abandoned castle being the amulet held within. Thousands of adventurers had came in from the call of the powerful amulet, however, they never came back.

However, the evil empress Evening Twinkle, had planned to steal the Twilight Amulet from the castle, and use it to keep eternal twilight. Daring Do swept into the castle ready to-

"Time for more delicious sandwiches!" said the cheery Sunny Skies.

"Okay," said Rainbow Dash.

Twelve o'clock in the noon. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

"So, this is the door to the scientist that will replenish my fuel?" asked Soaring Clouds.

"Yes, this is the correct door," said Blazing Skies. Soaring Clouds opened the door to see a lab, and in the middle the scientist that would make the fuel. the mare held out a muffin.

"Muffin?" asked Derpy.

"No thank you. - Derpy frowned and put the muffin away. - anyway, have you created the fuel for my airplane?" asked Soaring Clouds.

"Yes! However, it may not be the best kind, but i hope you like it!" exclaimed Derpy, holding out the makeshift fuel.

"...okay...?" said Soaring Clouds. He took the makeshift fuel, and left the lab.

Twelve thirty o'clock in the noon. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

Rainbow Dash ate her sandwich, and got back to reading.

Daring Do went into the temple. There was a bench made of gold and silver, and Daring Do was very tired from the long trip there, but that wouldn't stop her, she knew that the bench was a trap because of the pair of spikes on the ceiling over the bench. She entered the first hallway. There was spikes on the ceiling and three buttons, one had a picture of a rat, another of a tiger, and one of a fish.

Daring Do thought to herself, and then realized. "All of these are mammals, except... The fish!" said Daring Do. She pushed the button that had a picture of a fish on it, and the door opened into another hallway. She slowly walked through the hallway.

TINK.

She had stepped on a pressure plate, arrows shot from all directions, she dodged them. Suddenly, spikes started coming from the ceiling, and the door started closing. She ran towards the exit while dodging the arrows, and barely made it to the exit...

One thirty o'clock in the afternoon. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

Silver, Blazing Skies, and Soaring Clouds were in a meeting room, discussing their current plan...

"I dunno, Blazing, this seems like a really bad idea. What if we get caught?" asked Silver.

"Simple." said Blazing Skies. "We DON'T get caught. Besides, it's the only way we can save the remaining elements of harmony,"

"But WHY do we have to save the elements of harmony? They failed last time, what makes you think they won't fail again? It just seem like your friends with them. Either way, i don't see why we should save them if leaving them will just save US the trouble," said Silver. Silver yawned. Blazing Skies grumbled at that statement.

"Just because they failed ONCE doesn't mean they will fail again. Besides, i have no interest in betraying the elements of harmony," said Blazing Skies.

"Your choice," Silver yawned again. He decided this was a waste of time.

"Well, are you all ready?" asked Soaring Clouds. He put on his goggles.

"Sure..." sighed Silver.

"Yes," said Blazing Skies. They were all ready to save the elements of harmony.

Two o'clock in the afternoon. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock

Rarity was reading a Shadow Spade novel named : "The Mare in Red : A Shadow Spade Mystery"...

I was in a hotel room, relaxing on a couch reading a book. Until i got a call from a mare named reddened roses. "Why hello dear shadow spade! I have scheduled a party at my house tonight, and consider this in invitation! See you there! Bye!" said Reddened Roses. Of course, I accepted the invitation, and came to the house. I knocked on the door, and Reddened Roses answered.

"Why hello! Were you invited?" asked the mare. I was surprised that she did not already know that i was invited.

"Why yes, I was," I said. I asked her why she did not know why I was invited.

"Well I was invited too! And I didn't know they invited you!" said reddened roses. I was shocked that she did not know that she had called me.

"But you called me!" I said. She looked surprised.

"I called you?! I don't remember doing that at all!" she said. It seems like she was not the one on the phone but an imposter! I came inside to see what was going on, and i saw three other ponies there...

Two thirty o'clock in the afternoon. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

Soaring Clouds was ready to take off in her airplane, but it didn't feel quite like normal... She passed it off as a feeling she might be getting from being away from flying too long. She went into the air and flew above the enemies. "They certainly weren't prepared for somepony with a airplane to fly above them." she thought. She quickly put that thought away when some of the unicorns started blasting lasers at the airplane. She started moving the airplane back and forth to dodge the lasers.

"I did not expect this to happen!" thought Soaring Clouds.

Three thirty o'clock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
Daring Do was relived that she was able to make it to the exit. She found a room with the Twilight Amulet. She stepped forward, being cautious of any traps, then suddenly, a shadow appeared, Daring Do looked up and saw Evening Twinkle on the throne, manically laughing.

"There is no hope for you, Daring Do!" exclaimed Evening Twinkle. Suddenly, guards appeared at every door. "Oh no." thought Daring Do. but then-

"Rainbow Dash!" yelled Evening Twinkle in Twilight Sparkle's voice. Rainbow Dash looked up and saw Twilight Sparkle smiling above her. "I hope your having a dashing day today! Hehehehe! Anyway, i'm happy to interrupt your reading! Bye!" Twilight Sparkle left the room, and Rainbow Dash continued reading...

Four thirty o'clock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
"I don't know why this "plan" is going to work," said Silver.

"Well what would your plan be?" asked Blazing Skies.

"Leaving them, and saving Equestria ourselves, duh," said Silver.

"That not an option! Anyway, i hope your ready for the first part of our plan," said Blazing Skies. Sneaked past the guards, and went into the hallway. They saw two guards.

"Now how is your "brilliant" plan going to fix this, huh?" said Silver.

"Yes, actually. I know how to fix this," said Blazing Skies. Blazing Skies saw a gem in a chest on the side of the hallway. He dropped the gem onto the floor next to the guards.

"We need to get this out of the castle! Twilight sparkle would HATE this!" said the first guard.

"I think she just hates everything you give her," sighed the second guard.

Five thirty o'clock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

I looked at all three ponies. One was called Tary Blues, another Berry Bushes, and the last, Evening's Dawn. It was then, that i saw that one of them came up to me. "Shadow Spade! Somepony stole my beautiful dress! Can you find out who did it if you don't mind me asking?" asked Berry Bushes. She seemed to be missing her signature red dress, that was when i knew that it was up to me to solve the case. Of course, I knew it wouldn't be a hard one to solve.

Of course, I knew that the first thing I needed to do was investigate the crime scene. First, I asked Berry Bushes when it happened, she said that she left her dress to take a bath, and when she came back, it was gone! I went into the crime scene, and found a ribbon. The string had fallen off, and it was then that I knew who did it...

Six thirty o'clock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

Silver and Blazing Skies sneaked into the second hallway. "We're almost there," said Blazing Skies. They saw two more guards. They slowly sneaked through the door, and they were almost at the exit...

"Hey! What's that noise?!"

They dashed through the hallway, hearing shouts of "hey!" and "your not supposed to be here!", the alarm set off. This did not go as planned. "Quick! Go through this door!" yelled Blazing Skies. He pointed at the door, they burst through...

Seven fifty nine o'clock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

daring do spin kicked and all the guards went away to try and avoid the attack, but they failed, and were send flying across the room. "Get up you all! Daring Do is here! Move! Move!!" shouted Evening Twinkle, but the guards weren't able to get up. Daring Do jumped towards Evening Twinkle and Evening Twinkle dodged, not knowing that Daring Do was going for

the Twilight Amulet. Daring Do grabbed it. "Nooooo!" shouted Evening Twinkle. Suddenly, the temple started to rumble, and pieces of the temple started falling apart. Daring Do knew that she had to escape the temple quickly. She went from vine to vine, and barely escaped the temple. "Another job well done." and the day was saved.

Meanwhile, the adventure of shadow spade continues...

I went to each suspect, ready to tell them the evidence was found. "As you can see, Reddened Rose's dress was stolen. Usually, i would not be able tell who it was so soon. first, I can tell you that the one who committed this crime was terrible at covering the evidence. anyway, from the evidence i have collected, the only pony who it could have been, was... Tary Blues!"

Everypony gasped, and Tary Blues gulped. "H-how would it be me?! You have no evidence to support your conclusion!" he
said. "Oh yes I do. I suppose you would be familiar with this?" I pulled out the ribbon. he gulped again. "A-and h-how w-would this be m-mine?" he said again. "Has anyone noticed that Tary Blues has been missing his signature blue ribbon?" everypony gasped again. "Okay, fine, I did it," said Tary Blues. "B-but why!?" asked Reddened Roses.

"If you had your red dress, you would have won the dress competition next week, instead of me!" said Tary Blues. Another case opened, and another case closed.

the Friendship Squad was surprised by a sudden crash and a appearance of an airplane through the wall.

"Don't worry, i'm fine!" yelled Soaring Clouds. suddenly, the door was knocked down by Blazing Skies and Silver.

"We're here to save you!" shouted Blazing Skies.

"Quick! The guards will be here any minute now!" shouted Rainbow Dash. They ran out of the castle.
