After a while of shaking and waiting to see if something will pop up the group broke apart from the hug as they were sighing in relief

"Whew! That was a close one" Pipp said

"I agree" Sunny said

"Well, I wasn't scared, I was definitely playing along" Zipp said

"You sure, you were hugging us tightly" Misty said

"I gotta agree with that" Izzy agreed

"Well, now what?" Sunny asked

"Yeah, we're lost, we can never go back and to make matters worse, the queen is probably after us!" Pipp said in fright

"Well, we just have to hope the Huntsman can do whatever it takes to keep her off our backs for a while" Zipp said

"With a while you mean our whole lives!" Sunny said

"Yeah, and besides the queen has a mirror, it's so smart that if the queen asks something, she will figure out where we are" Misty said

"What?!" The others asked in shock

"So, you're saying that the queen is still on our tails for a full month or something?!" Zipp asked angrily

"Why didn't you tell us, you're being nothing but dumb to us for a while! What's next, you tested our friendships?!" Pipp asked angrily

The group then glared before they heard sounds as they turned to the side and saw Hitch talking with some animals

"Uh huh, okay, she's just frightened like the rest of us, sure you may go wake her up" Hitch said

Sunny then approached Hitch

"Hitch, what are you doing? You seem to be talking to the animals again, I didn't know you could do this even here" Sunny said in shock

"Hehe, yeah, I didn't know either until I heard them asking me stuff" Hitch explained

"Oh okay" Sunny said

Zipp then approached Sunny and pulled her to the side

"Sunny, I'd like to talk to you for a bit" Zipp said

"Sure, what is it Zipp?" Sunny asked

"Should we really trust Misty, for all we know she's testing our friendships" Zipp reminded

"Well that's for my friends to decide but before we do I suggest we try waking Snow White up" Sunny suggested

The group then approached Snow as they noticed the bunny had already begun sniffing her which woke Snow White up and when she did she noticed multiple animals staring at her which shocked her a bit making the animals run back a bit until Snow turned to them in worry

“Please don’t run away! We won’t hurt you!” Snow said causing the animals to show their faces again “We’re awfully sorry, we didn’t mean to frighten you but you don’t know what we’ve been through and all because we were afraid” Snow explained before turning to the birds in the trees “I’m so ashamed of the fuss we made” Snow explained worriedly

The animals then got a little worried for her as Hitch approached her

“Hey Snow, it’s alright, we’re here for you” Hitch reminded

“What do you guys do when things go wrong?” Snow asked

“We’d mostly save the day or solve problems” Izzy answered

“That won’t work now” Snow said

“Yeah, agreed, what about you guys?” Hitch asked

A bird then flew to the front and began twittering with an idea which gave Snow an idea

“Oh! You sing a song?!” Snow asked in shock

The birds to look at each other before nodding causing Snow to begin humming with a bird following her lead before it flew onto her finger as the two hummed again with the last hum turning into a screech causing the group to laugh a bit

(Pause the song here at 1:22)

“Why don’t you sing with her Pipp?” Sunny asked

“Me?! Oh no, no, no! Absolutely not! I don’t think I’m that good at singing with the animals” Pipp explained

“Yes you are Pipp, when I stole Sparky, Sparky seemed interested at the song you sang! I’m sure you’ve got this!” Misty reminded

“Can I even believe you?” Pipp asked

“To be fair, this is not a lie!” Misty answered

“Very well but if it’s a lie we’ll have a serious problem!” Pipp said

(Continue music here)

Pipp then cleared her throat as Snow waited before Pipp nodded causing the duo to sing as many animals nearby heard the singing causing them to turn to Snow White and Pipp while some other animals rushed towards the group as one squirrel excitedly hopped towards Snow who tried to pat them causing them to zip off back to it’s family before back towards Snow as it crawled all over her while Pipp turned to a deer who she then began hugging as more and more animals surrounded the group which they all began patting or hugging and once they were done the animals began cheering in excitement

“I really feel quite happy now I’m sure we’ll get along somehow” Snow said before turning to the Mane Five and Misty “Everything’s going to be alright” Snow reminded

“Agreed!” Hitch agreed

“I do have one question” Izzy explained

Sunny then turned to Izzy

“What is it?” Sunny asked

“Where do we sleep?” Izzy asked

Izzy was right, the group were out in the wild for a while and they hadn’t realized they needed to search for a place to sleep

“She’s right, we do need to find a place to sleep at night” Snow said

“How about in a rabbit hole?” Hitch asked

“We can’t sleep in the ground like them” Snow reminded behind a chuckle

“How about in a tree?” Zipp asked

“Nope, not even in a tree the way they do” Snow reminded

“I’m also sure that no nest would possibly be big enough for us” Pipp reminded

“Maybe you critters know where we could stay?” Hitch asked

After Hitch said that the animals looked at each other in surprise

“In the woods somewhere?” Snow asked

The birds then twittered in agreement

“They do?” Snow asked

“I think they do, follow them!” Hitch called out

And with that everypony began walking down the nonexistent path of the woods towards the place where they could sleep in
