Trebass' anger built up inside him to the point that he couldn't think about anything else but revenge. Thoughts of ridding Shock Bolt from Equestria filled his mind. He glanced at the train map again, he saw the blue skull above the driver's cab. The blue skull represented Shock Bolt, that was what Trebass imagined it to be anyways.

He pulled the exit door to the side and stepped outside. Looking down, he could see the rails zooming by. The cloudless sky blue water below him sparkled. He looked up, and the sky was as blue as the ocean. The unicorn began to climb the ladder on his right. He got to the top, and the wind immediately blew on his back. Turning to face the front of the train, he saw his rival. Shock Bolt stood firmly on top of the driver's cab.

"So you chose revenge did you?!" The blue pegasus shouted over the sound of the blowing wind.

Trebass regained his balance, and tried to resist the blowing wind on his face. His horn glowed, and a flash of light blinded Shock. The unicorn appeared in front of Shock. Trebass' punched the pegasus right between the eyes.

Falling backwards, Shock Bolt let out a shout of pain. A remote fell out of the pegasus' vest pocket and slid into the gap between train cabs.

"No!" Trebass shouted, as he galloped to and then dropped into the gap between trains.

He saw the remote shaking slowly towards the edge. Trebass grabbed it quickly, and pressed the large red button on it. The word diffused appeared on the digital screen on the remote.

The unicorn fell on his flank, and let out a deep sigh.

Suddenly, the blue pegasus lept down from the cab roof, "So you chose to save your friends over killing me?" He asked.

Trebass replied, "You're not worth killing."

"I should probably mention, the bomb is also large enough to derail the train. So I'd find a way to fix that if I were you." Shock Bolt said cockily, as he flew away from the train and over the blue ocean to the beach in the distance.

"HEY! Come back here!" Trebass shouted, but his cries were in vain.

"I guess I've only got one option left..." He said softly to himself.

The unicorn began to quickly climb up the ladder leading to the roof of the driver's cab. He galloped to the center of the cab. He raised his horn high, as it began to start glowing a light pink. He squinted his eyes shut, and concentrated.

The train was nearing the bomb, as it started to glow the same color as Trebass' horn. Shimmers of light began to float around the train. Then, a white light flashed and nearly blinded everypony within a mile of the train. When the light cleared, the train was nowhere to be found.

The mares, Royal, Deviree, Aromé, and Notelie each fell from the train and onto the train rails. Each mare, except Royal Flush, had all of their legs tied together by rope. The tan mare flew in mid-air for a second, until she landed on the train track in front of a black bomb.

Royal stood up, and regained her balance. She turned around and saw three (3) other mares on the track. She galloped towards them to help. When each mare was untied, the green pegasus offered to take each pony from the train tracks to the beach in the distance. Deviree flew back and forth, taking each mare to the sandy beach of Haywaii from the trail rails. When they were all on the beach, they asked each other what they were doing on the train.

And each of them answered the same, "A blue pegasus had either kidnapped them, or knocked them out and tied them up." Both answers were generally the same.

Deviree and Notelie mentioned that their friend Trebass had brought them to the train. Royal Flush and Aromé were surprised by this, why was Trebass escorting two other beautiful mares?

"Well I'm gonna find him. With or without the rest of you." Deviree said.

Royal Flush spoke up, "And what gives you the right to go after MY Trebass?"

"Your Trebass?!" Aromé shouted interrupting Royal.

The three (3) mares argued and quarrelled for a time, while Notelie silently stood behind them.

"I'm the only one knows where he is. But could I use these mares to my advantage?" She pondered to herself.

She looked up at a single lonely cloud in the sky, "I wonder how the council will handle a giant train entering Cutopia from nowhere..."
