“Nope! Nope! Nope!” Twilight growled in frustration, speed reading every book in Canterlot’s library. She vowed to Star Shine that she will try and find a cure for her, and that’s what she will do.

All of her friends were helping Twilight look for the same book, but they didn’t have any luck either,

“Sorry Twi’ ,” Rainbow Dash sighed, giving her wings a rest, “I just couldn’t find anything that had a cure for being paralysed.”

But Twilight didn’t stop, she scanned through every book on the shelf and didn’t rest for a single second.

She looked around and saw everypony hard at work; Rarity used her magic to check the books in the highest shelf, Fluttershy managed to get the mice to help her look, Applejack bucked the books off the shelf and hunted through everyone and Pinkie Pie was using all her hyper energy to find every book in the library.

Twilight sighed, what if there was no cure? She fluttered down to the ground and tried to not think about the poor filly who she didn't know was alive or dead. Maybe she-

“I’ve found something! Twilight! I've found something!” Pinkie Pie screeched, before being shushed by the librarian.

Twilight and her friends rushed over to Pinkie Pie who was holding a dusty old book in her hooves. Twilight picked it up and scanned through the pages until she went to the last one, it didn’t say how to cure a paralyzed pony, but it did say something that could work just as well, but the price was incredibly high.

Everypony read the page with Twilight and widened their eyes in shock,

“Twilight, are you... Actually considering this!?”

Rainbow Dash asked in surprise, Twilight gave a small nod and turned to her friends,

“I know it’s a huge sacrifice, but it’s also a huge sacrifice I’m willing to make..”

Her friends exchanged glances and nodded,

“We’re all real proud of ya, Twi’, “Applejack admitted, taking a step forward, “You do whatever ya think is best.”

One after the other, all of Twilight’s friends hugged her and wished her luck. But even though they all supported her, Celestia was harder to convince, but in the end got her to realise that Twilight needed to do it.

“Your devotion is amazing,” Celestia said, “I know you’ll do the right thing in the end.”

After the long conversation with Celestia, Twilight wrote to Star Shine; saying she wanted to see her again. Star Shine agreed, of course, and couldn't wait to see her Role-model again..
