Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Kay followed sunny and Izzy to a lighthouse, sunny hurried to shut the door and close the blinds. Kay look around and saw a picture of a very young sunny and a blue earth pony.

"Is that her dad? If so, where is he?" Kay thought. "Is he left or..." His thoughts was interrupted by Izzy.

"Do Earth ponies also like staring contests?" She asked, before she started to stare really hard at Sunny Starscout, up to the point where they were almost touching noses, but after a while, she ended up losing the contest. "Ah! You win! I blinked!"

As Izzy walked off the explore the room, Sunny still couldn't believe the fact that she was within the presence of a real life unicorn. "There's... a unicorn... And a robot train in my house... This is so cool!" She squealed in a fangirl voice, but suddenly, her smile quickly faded away as she processed the situation she had gotten herself into. "Wait, no, it's bad. Very, very bad. What have I done?" She asked herself in a panic.

"Well, you help me and Izzy escape from the law." Said kay

"Wow! I've never seen an Earth pony before." Izzy said as she stared into a telescope nearby. "We look exactly the same! Except for this, of course." She then gestured to her unicorn horn.

"Whoa! Hey! Be careful where you point that thing." Sunny said cautiously after Izzy got a bit too close to her.

"Why?" She asked.

"You probably stab somepony in the eye" said kay.

"Well, I, uh... um... sorta don't want to get zapped with a wayward laser beam." Sunny stuttered. "But of course you know that already. [chuckles] You've probably been reading my mind this whole time." Suddenly, she noticed something rather odd about Izzy's horn. " Isn't it supposed to glow, by the way? Or does that only happen when you levitate stuff?"

"Well, actually..." Izzy laughed nervously, shifting her eyes around the room, but before she could explain, she was interrupted by Sunny.

"Wait! Don't answer that yet. Let me get my notebook!" Sunny then ran over to the counter in the kitchen, pulling out her notebook from one of the drawers. "Okay, wow. Okay." She exhaled as she opened the notebook. "A hundred forty-two questions for a unicorn". Question number one - where do you live?"

"Bridlewood." Izzy replied.

"I knew it!" Sunny exclaimed, before continuing to ask her questions in a rather fast pace. "Do unicorns really live in trees? Do they eat pizza? If so, what toppings do they like? If not, why not? Can you actually fry pony brains with a single horn zap?" She then stopped asking questions and gasped as she noticed a can of beans nearby, knocking it over to Izzy. "Can you make this float?"

Izzy looked at the can of beans for a brief moment, before looking back up at Sunny with a sad look on her face. "No... but I can do this." She then proceeded to fling the can right onto her horn, bouncing it in the air like a basketball. Eventually, she bounced it one more time, causing it to hit the ground as beans splattered all over the floor. "Ta-daaaaa!"

"Wait. You don't have any magic?" Sunny asked in a sudden sad tone.

"Since you don't have magic, then I can't get back to my world" said kay sadly.

But they were interrupted by a hitch speaking in his microphone.

"Sunny Starscout!" Hitch called out in an amplified voice. "Argh, that hurt." He cleared his throat and continued, as his deputy was standing behind him wearing one of those mind reading hats. "Sunny Starscout, I know you're in there with that unicorn and that robot train! Come out with your hooves up and surrender!"

"Yeah, you're completely surrounded!" His deputy exclaimed, trying to sound intimidating, when in actuality, there was nobody else there besides him and Hitch.

"Will you let me do my job?" Hitch whispered angrily, before turning back over. "You are under arrest!"

"This is bad." Sunny said nervously. "How sneaky are you guys?

"Uh, medium sneaky?" Izzy replied.

"I'm the fastest train of railroad I can do anything." Kay added in.

"I can work with that." Sunny said in a more calm voice. "Okay, I'll distract them."

"Oh, pffft. Relax. I'll talk to them." Izzy scoffed as she made his way out the door.

"Wha—? N-No, no!" Sunny cried out, trying to stop the unicorn from making the situation worse for them, but despite Sunny's begging, Izzy went outside to try to talk some sense into Hitch and his deputy.

"Hi, guys!" Izzy greeted casually. "Now, I know what you're thinking."

"Aah! She's already reading our minds!" His deputy screamed, before running in the opposite direction as fast as he could. "Quick, before she fries our brains!"

"W-What are you doing? Where are you going?" Hitch asked, turning his head around, but unbeknownst to him, Sunny, Izzy and Kay quickly made their escape.

"To get reinforcements!" His deputy exclaimed.

"We have reinforcements?" Hitch asked himself, before noticing that the three friends had just left. "Oh, come on!"

The whole world became a blur once more as Sunny, Izzy and kay were back to running through the vast meadows of Maretime Bay. As we continued running, Sunny turned to Izzy, who was running next to her.

"You don't have any magic?" She panted out.

"Nope." Izzy replied.

Coming to a sudden halt, Sunny and kay both gasped in surprise upon hearing what Izzy had just told them, Sunny then sat down on the dirt path. "No magic?" She said, clearly confused, as was Kay is.

"Wait a minute, if you don't have magic, then how am I supposed to get back home to my world?" Kay asked, now feeling worried again about not being able to return back to his world. Kay thought that Izzy could just cast a portal spell, sending Kay back, but now, that didn't seem to be a possibility.

"Oh, but if it makes you two feel any better, we did have it, but that was many, many, many moons ago. It just – poof – disappeared. Everypony thinks the pesky Pegasi had something to do with it, but.."

Izzy's explanation fell when she noticed Sunny's expression. "O-Oh. Hey, you look kinda woozy. Are you okay?"

Sunny stood up as she paced around worriedly. "Huh. I am on the run with a unicorn who has no magic. What are we gonna do?"

"And how am I going to get back to my world?" Kay added, throwing in a question of my own.

What Izzy did next was really strange, she went up to Sunny and proceeded to smell her, much to her confusion. "What are you doing?"

"You don't smell." Izzy replied.

"Thanks." Sunny said warmly, before she realized what she just said. "Wait, what?"

"I was told all you Earth ponies smell like rotten sardines, but you do not. Hmm." Izzy shrugged.

"Hey Izzy, do I smell like rotten sardines?" Kay asked out of utter curiosity.

After immediately realizing how weird that question was, Kay didn't think she'd actually do it, but Izzy didn't seem to mind as she went up to me and promptly smelt kay as well. Once she did, she had a thoughtful look on her face, like she was trying to process the smell.

"No." Izzy soon replied. "Not even a little."

"What else do unicorns say about Earth ponies?" Sunny wondered.

"Oh, just that you're lazy and not the brightest crystals in the forest." Izzy answered.

"Charming." Sunny said sarcastically.

"Nope, just those three. So, what's the plan?" Izzy asked.

"Wait. I've got it!" Sunny's face lit up.

"What is it, Sunny?" Kay asked, curious as to what Sunny had planned.

"Izzy, kay, we're going on a quest... to Zephyr Heights."

Right as she said that, she pulled out a book from her saddlebag and threw it on the ground in front of them. The pages the book was opened to appeared to be a map, Sunny then pointed towards this "Zephyr Heights" which looked to be a city in the sky.

"The Pegasus city?" Izzy inquired.

"Yes. We need to find out what happened to your magic and bring it back. They have magic. Maybe they can help." Sunny thought.

"Great idea, Sunny." Kay commented, but Izzy didn't seem too sure about this plan of Sunny's.

"Uh, but the Pegasi are bad news." She said worriedly.

"What if you're wrong about them? Earth ponies were wrong about unicorns. They could welcome us with open wings." Sunny replied.

"But what if they don't?" Izzy asked with concern in her voice.

(Izzy)
Up ahead is a sky growing dark.
Where it leads is a big question mark.
And I'm scared that I'll end up
A pony gone missing from Pegasus-ing.

(Sunny and Kay)
But you're not alone!
You got a pony in your crew.

(Izzy)
I do, who?

(Sunny)
I'm lookin' out for you.
When you're off track-

(Kay)
I got your back!
You can rely on us
I'm lookin' out for you

(Sunny)
Back at home, it was "earth ponies first."
Heard it so many times, I could burst.
And I fought for a change,
But it's lonely, cause, you know--
Party of uno.

(Izzy)
Well, if you need
A friendly steed
Like you-know-who...

(Sunny and Kay)
I think I do

(Sunny, Izzy and Kay)
I'm looking out for you

(Sunny and Kay)
When you're off track
I got your back

(Sunny, Izzy and Kay)
You can rely on me
I'm lookin' out for you

(Sunny and Kay)
Lost in the hills?

(Izzy)
I got the skills.
Pony, let's get goin'!

(Sunny)
Get goin'!

(Kay)
Get goin'!

(Sunny, Izzy and Kay)
I'm lookin' out--!
For you

****

At last they made it to the mountains of zephyr heights.

"Let's camp here for the night, we got a big day head of us" said kay.

"Good idea" said sunny.

Soon sunny, Izzy and Kay was fast asleep.
