The Syknoian War: Part Two

The Capsule

Previous Chapter

All of the ships set a course for Equus and set their warp drives to maximum power. The ships left the battlefield and zoomed through space many times faster than a bullet from a gun. Even at the highest amount of thrust, this journey would take a while. To compensate, the soldiers opted to go into stasis and be awakened when they arrived in orbit.

**

Three months later, the ships arrived in orbit around Equus and the soldiers were woken up. They entered Eqqus' atmosphere and landed safely. As the soldiers were exiting their ships, photographers and reporters from all of the newspapers were gathered and taking pictures. Cadence returned to the throne and the celebration began the following week. Fireworks lit up the night for three days straight and the Wonderbolts performed several times a day.

After the celebration was finished, Ocellus spotted something falling from the sky near the Changeling Kingdom. It was a capsule of some sort. She made arrangements to show the contents to Cadence at once and boarded a chariot to Canterlot. Arriving at the palace, she bowed before Cadence on the carpet.

"You may rise.", said Cadence.

"This capsule came streaking down from the sky. I have examined the contents and I think it has a video journal from Flurry Heart."

Upon hearing her daughter's name mentioned, Cadence took the capsule and pulled out the disc that was inside. She then called the other five of the Young Six to meet her and Ocellus to view the journal. They were about to find out where Flurry had ended up and how well she was doing in the way of her survival.

TO BE CONTINUED...

What will the journal show? How well do you think Flurry has been doing with her survival situation after eight and a half years alone in space?
