The two swam to the other mermaid.
“Excuse us miss.” said Silverstream.

“Huh? What? Who are you two?” asked Fluttershy.

“I’m Princess Skystar of Seaquestria & daughter of Queen Novo and this is my cousin Silverstream.” answered Skystar.

“Hi.” said Silverstream.

“Now where & what are we?” asked Skystar.

“Um…okay, so the two of you are in the human world.” answered Fluttershy.

“The human world?” asked Skystar.

“Yes, it’s a world that’s connected with yours and theirs portals in both, which take you to both worlds. Each world has their version of the same person in them, here the versions of beings from Equestria are humans.” said Fluttershy.

“WOW! Wait until we tell my mom about this.” said Skystar.

“Actually myself and my friends met your mother last night.” said Fluttershy.

“My mom came to a different world and didn’t tell us.” said Skystar.

“She probably knew we would come here.” said Silverstream.

“Your mother, the other princesses, myself & my friends want to minimize the number of beings that know about the two worlds.” said Fluttershy.

“That makes sense.” said Skystar.

“You look familiar.” said Silverstream.

“She does?” asked Skystar.

“I’m this world’s Fluttershy.” said Fluttershy.

“That’s why you looked familiar.” said Silverstream.

“Where’s the rest of your friends?” asked Skystar.

“Follow me.” said Fluttershy.

Fluttershy led them to land, their tails morphing into legs; both Skystar & Silverstream had light blue bikini bottoms to match their tops. The Seaquestrians had a hard time standing, but were helped by Fluttershy and she led them to the RV.

“Have a nice morning swim, Shy?” Sunset asked.

“Who are these two?” Rarity asked.

“This is Queen Novo’s daughter Skystar and her cousin Silverstream..” said Fluttershy.

“HOLY CRAP! THIS IS SO EXCITING!’ said Pinkie.

“Hi.” said Skystar.

“Hello.” said Silverstream.

“The two of you got here through that portal in the cave?” asked Sunset.

“Yes.” answered Skystar.

“Novo is probably going to freak out when she sees you’re gone.” said Applejack.

“We’ve gone off before without telling her.” said Silverstream.

“Sunset-” Twilight whispered to Sunset..

“Already on it.” Sunset whispered to Twilight.

Sunset opened her book.
“Morning Twily, how are you doing after last night?” Sunset asked.

“Good why?” asked Princess Twilight.

“Princess Skystar & Silverstream are here.” answered Sunset.

“Oh sweet Celestia.” said Princess Twilight.

“Yeah, if it isn’t dealing with magical artifacts, it's always something or someones in this case.” said Sunset.

“Did anyone else see them?” asked Princess Twilight.

“No, just Fluttershy.” answered Sunset.

“I’ll let Novo know, please keep them out of trouble.” said Princess Twilight.

“We can do that.” said Sunset and she closed her book.

“What are you writing there?” asked Skystar.

“This is a journal that allows myself & Princess Twilight to send messages back & forth with each other.” answered Sunset.

“What’d she say?” asked Silverstream.

“I told her that the two of you are here and she’s going to tell Novo.” answered Sunset.

“Mom’s going to come & drag us back now.” said Skystar.

“But until she gets here, can we have some fun here?” asked Silverstream.

“Please?” asked Skystar.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea.” said Applejack.

“Well Princess Twilight did say for us to keep an eye on you two.” answered Sunset.

“Thank you.” said Skystar.

“But the two of you listen to us and don’t go wandering.” said Sunset.

“Yes, ma’am.” said Silverstream.

“Well the two of you need an outfit.” said Rarity, she took out her supplies and got their measurements.

After 45 minutes Rarity finished the outfits, Skystar’s outfit was a light red blouse, a light blue skirt, black boots, a red hairband & and a blue necklace with a gold star pendant attached..
Silverstream’s outfit was a hot pink shirt, blue shorts & purple shoes.

“These feel nice thank you.” said Skystar after putting it on.

“Amazingly done.” said Silverstream.

“You’re welcome.” said Rarity.

The Rainbooms got dressed and they went to breakfast, Skystar & Silversteam split a big plate of hash browns & each had an egg & cheese sandwich.

“These are really good.” said Skystar, scarfing down a hash brown.

“Glad you like them.” said Pinkie.

After breakfast the rainbooms took their guests around the pier & stores next to the beach. They went on the roller coaster which made Skystar & Silversteam vomit in a garbage can. Sunset bought them ginger ale drinks to help settle their stomachs.

“Don’t worry you’ll be fine.” said Pinkie.

“I don’t want to do that again.” said Silverstream.

“Same.” said Skystar.

“It’s better when you don’t have a big meal before riding it.” said Rainbow.

Sunset’s bag started vibrating, she opened her book.
“Queen Novo has been told where Skystar & Silverstream are and she’s not pleased but is relieved to know they’re safe.” said Princess Twilight.

“That’s good, should we take them back now?” asked Sunset.

“Queen Novo will let them stay for a few days, Novo jokingly said now she can get some piece & quiet.” said Princess Twilight.

“I was worried Novo would come storming here with some guards.” said Sunset.

“I was as well, but after last night Novo knows you & the others are very capable of watching over Skystar & Silverstream.” said Princess Twilight.

Well they’ve been having fun and haven’t caused any trouble.” said Sunset.

“I’ll let Novo know.” said Princess Twilight.

“What did Twilight want?” asked Fluttershy.

“To see how they were doing.” answered Sunset.

“Did she tell my mom?” asked Skystar.

“Yes and your mom isn’t happy, but she will let the two of you stay for a few days. So she can get some peace & quiet.” answered Sunset.

Silverstream chuckled. “That sounds about right.” she said.

“ALRIGHT!” cheered Pinkie, hugging Silverstream.

They were swimming away from other people in the afternoon. Flash, Sandalwood, Soarin & Thunderlane were in a small boat getting ready to dive without any gear to see how far down they could go. They had dropped a line with marker buoys to show how many meters down they were.

Skystar watched them as the dove, she was hiding behind large rocks and Sunset soon joined her.

“Something catch your eye?” asked Sunset.

“Huh? what?” Skystar jumped.

The boys had gotten to 40 meters, they fist bumped as Flash released the buoy.
“Who are they?” asked Skystar.

“That’s Flash Sentry, Sandalwood, Thunderlane---” said Sunset pointing out each one.

Soarin went further to 50 meters and released the 50 meter buoy. “And him?” asked Skystar.

“That’s Soarin.” said Sunset.

“It’s surprising that being without a tail can go down this far.” said Skystar.

“Yeah, people can surprise you.” said Sunset.

Sunset went back to the other girls, Skystar continued watching. Flash, Thunderlane & Sandalwood went back up for air, but Soarin went down further to 70 meters.

“Wow.” Skystar said to herself as she watched Soarin go back up.

“Soarin! You’re a beast dude!” holled Flash as he & the other pulled him into the boat.

Soarin coughed up water as he came to. “Thanks.” asked Soarin.

“You shouldn’t push yourself that much, so fast.” said Sandalwood.

“I pulled myself back up.” said Soarin.

“Well thankfully you did.” said Thunderlane.

“Too much longer and we would’ve had to go back for you.” said Flash.

“Just be more careful.” said Sandalwood.

“Yeah.” said Soarin.

The girls took a break from swimming about an hour later and were on the pier & boardwalk. Skystar was getting a big ice cream cone, she hopped as they were fixing it.

“You must really like Ice Cream.” said Soarin, buying a hamburger, fries & a soda from the booth next to the ice cream one.

“Um..yeah.” said Skystar.

“That’ll be $6.00.” said the guy behind the counter.

“Here.” said Soarin handing the money to the guy.

Skystar took her Ice Cream which was blue & pink in a pink cone.
“You didn’t have to do that, I had money in my hand.” said Skystar.

“Don’t worry about it.” said Soarin.

“Well thank you.” said Skystar.

“I’m Soarin.” said Soarin.

“Skystar.” said Skystar.

“What flavor did ya get?” asked Soarn.

“It’s called Bubblegum unicorn.” answered Skystar, she took a bite and her eyes went wide.

“It’s it good?” asked Soarin.

Skystar nodded her head, she took 4 more bites and then stopped as her head got cold & a headache.
“Ow.” said Skystar.

“If you eat it too fast that’ll happen.” said Soarin.

“Thanks for the info.” said Skystar.

After a few minutes they walked to a table. “Did you not know that was going to happen?” asked Soarin.

“No, this is actually the first time I have eaten Ice Cream.” answered Skystar.

“Really?” asked Soarin.

“My mom didn’t buy it when I was growing up.” answered Skystar.

“What kind of parent doesn’t buy Ice Cream for her kid.” Soarin asked.

“Mine.” said Skystar.

“Are you here by yourself?” asked Soarin.

“No I’m with my Cousin Silverstream.” answered Skystar.

“Where’s she?” asked Soarin.

“I don’t know, we were taking a break from diving.” answered Skystar.

“You two dive?” Soarin smiled.

“Yeah, we’ve been doing it a little.” said Skystar.

“Myself & my friends were diving earlier today.” said Soarin.

“How far did you guys make it?” asked Skystar.

“They went only 50 meters, but I pushed myself to 70.” answered Soarin.

“Wow.” said Skystar.

“How about you? How far do you & Silverstream go?” asked Soarin.

“60 for both of us.” answered Skystar.

“Dang, you two should come with us when we go back out there.” said Soarin.

“We’re good.” said Skystar.

“Why?” asked Soarin.

“Because you don’t want to push yourself too much.” answered Skystar.

“You sound like my friends.” said Soarin.

“They’re right.” said Skystar.

“If we can’t do the diving, how about something else?” said Soarin.

“What do you have in mind?” asked Skystar.

“How about you & me, tonight where we can have dinner?” asked Soarin.

“That sounds nice.” said Skystar.

“Let’s say 7 o’clock?” said Soarin.

“That works for me.” said Skystar.

“SKYSTAR!” said Pinkie running to her with the rest of the girls following.

“Oh hey Pinkie.” said Skystar.

“We were wondering where you took off to.” said Rarity.

“I’m fine.” said Skystar.

“Hey Soarin.” said Rainbow.

“Dash, rest of the girls, hey.” said Soarin.

“Alright come on.” said Sliverstream.

“Oh wait Skystar, are we still doing tonight?” asked Soarin as she got up.

“Yes, see you then.” answered Skystar.

“Did Soarin ask you out on a date?” asked Applejack as they walked away.

“Um….yeah?” answered Skystar.
