Jollybaker and the Lost Alicorns

Jollybaker stirred around in his bed and opened his eyes. He seen Blue Diamond staring at him right in front of his face. He started screaming, then she started screaming.

"Blue Diamond! Don't do that!"

"What did I do?"

He sat up.

"What happened?"

"Sonic said you passed out. You've been out for days."

He looked at her.

"What is in your mane?"

"Oh. It's a mane band made from Daises. Sonic made it for me. You like it?"

Before he could answer, Appleworm came into the room, and seen Jollybaker up.

"Thank goodness. You're awake. How do you feel?"

"Okay. I guess. Where's the others?"

Appleworm gave him a worried look.

"Well, Siltstone is looking through some books to see what she can find out about the alicorns, and Sonic is... how should I say this?.... Well, he has been really weird the last few days."

"Weird how?"

Appleworm and Blue Diamond looked at each other for a moment before Appleworm finally answered, "Well, sometimes he is alright. But other times...," he lets out a little sigh. "I think he blames himself for what happened to you for some reason."

Jollybaker sat there thinking and he finally remembered what happened.

"I need to talk to him. Where is he right now?"

"He is out making laps around town. He has been really busy lately. He has actually managed to get the other ponies to trust one another more, what ones have stayed. There are hardly any pony left in Equestria. I guess he thinks it will help you feel better if they are getting along."

Jollybaker got out of bed and headed down stairs and out the door. He found Sonic trying to blow up some balloons for a few earth ponies. He walked up to him.

"Hey Sonic."

Sonic let go of the balloon he had and it when flying. He turned towards Jollybaker.

"Oh, Jolly. You're ok." He gave him a hug.

"Yeah. I'm okay. I have something to talk about with you. You have a minute?"

"Of course. I am always here to help a friend in need." He let a nervous laugh.

"Uh-huh. You remember what happened to me, right? In the cave?"

"Of course. I heard you calling out that you found a cave and when I found you inside, you were laying on the ground, passed out. I shouldn't have left you alone. It's my fault."

"That doesn't matter. Who else was there when you found me?"

Sonic gave him a confused look.

"What do you mean? You were the only one there. You were mumbling something about alicorns, though. You don't remember that?"

"No, I don't, actually. Are you sure it was about alicorns?"

"Yeah. That reminds me, Siltstone was wanting to talk to you when you got up today, which I thought was rather weird. Like she knew you would be up today. She said she found something about alicorns in the Sparkle Library."

He went flying off to help out a pony that was carrying a bunch of stuff.

Jollybaker headed off to find Siltstone in the library.
