"Oh hey Twilight!" said Rainbow Dash in her average day voice.
"Come on in Twilight!" Zecora gestured Twilight to step in and take a seat.
"Rainbow Dash, what is so important?" Twilight said hastily; she though she'd travelled all this way
for nothing, but then it came like a bullet; the shock hit her.
"Well, Cloudsdale isn't in trouble exactly, they're going to cause trouble. I overheard it when i went for
the young fliers competition; 2 of the royal pegasus guards discussed "Operation Pegasus", and it sounded bad!"
Rainbow Dash sounded serious?
Twilight though to herself. What could Operation Pegasus be?
"Well go on Rainbow Dash, tell us what Operation Pegasus is!" Hastily spoken from Twilight's mouth.
"Well, I don't have exact details but.."
"Just tell us Rainbow Dash!" Twilight interrupted.
"Well, it's something about attacking Ponyville and other places in Equestria; they said something about
Ponyville first, the Crystal Empire second, and whoever opposes next, but remember HARM NO PEGASUS." Rainbow Dash explained
this to Twilight slowly so she could think about it.
"So what else do we have, any solid evidence?"
"No," Rainbow Dash replied with a down hearted voice. "Actually, wait, we do!" her face filled with joy.
"Spill it Rainbow Dash, we need to know this, it's very important!"
"They have a board with 3 rules on it!"
"What are the 3 rules?"
"I don't know Twilight, but I can fly up to Cloudsdale and find out!"
"Do whatever it takes Rainbow Dash; Zecora will inform me of the rest as you go!"
Rainbow Dash flew out the building with lightning speed, causing all sorts of chaos in Zecora's house as a
few mugs and teapots hit the ground.
"Zecora, what else is there to this story?"
"I'm not quite sure Twilight, it appears the pegasi want to rule over Equestria."
No more was said; both bowed their heads and said good bye. Twilight ran home to document this
possible attack from Cloudsdale. A shiver ran down her spine, and she turned around to see a pegasus guard.
"Oh hello sir, can I help you?"
"Yes, you can, I've heard a lot about your doings..."
"What could he be talking about? Surely he doesn't know what I'm writing!" She quickly thought out a possibility
that he was going to take her away and enslave her.
"Oh.. uh.. have you?"
"Yes, I've heard you're the person to go to for books?"
Thank goodness, she thought, and relaxed.
"Yes, I am; I have a whole library here, what are you looking for?"
"I'm not sure, any books you can recommend?" He tilted his head, looking at Twilight's writing. "What are you writing?"
"Oh, just a story about Cloudsdale!" Oh no, she thought, have i given it away?
"Oh cool, what's it about?" He looked questioningly at the writing.
"The young fliers competition." It was the first thing that came to her mind.
"May I read it?"
"NO NONOONONO, sorry, but it's private until I release it!" Twilight started to worry, she had to think this through.
Would this work?
"Oh, ok, well I'll come back later; I can see you're busy!"
"Thanks!" Twilight hastily replied.
The guard left Twilight's house as if nothing had just gone down. Had he not noticed Twilight's nervousness?

The day started like any other for Twilight sparkle and Spike; they would study the magic of friendship and other arts for the greater good.
Twilight had learned a new spell: now she could cause mysterious hair growth on the body and of course reverse this. This was just 1 of her 25 proposed tricks
she would learn to impress her friends. She tested it out on Spike, and it was a huge success. She cast the spell and a small orb of pink energy floated
around her horn, then she tilted her head and let out a beam towards Spike which hit him, causing no effect, and then from no where a mustache sprouted around Spike's
nose. He jumped with glee and pleaded Twilight to let him keep it, but of course Twilight would not allow this.
"Please Twilight, please!" Spike pleaded. He really wanted this mustache for some strange reason.
"No Spike, now stop asking!" Twilight replied as she shot another small orb of energy, removing Spike's mustache.
"You simply must understand I do not use my magic to influence things I shouldn't be influencing".
"Ok, sorry Twilight," Spike said with a sad tone to his voice.
"Now come along Spike, we need to speak to Rainbow Dash; she said something terrible is happening up at Cloudsdale," Twilight alerted spike.
"Something bad up at Cloudsdale?" replied Spike with a questioning tone to his somewhat worried voice.
"Yes, now there's simply no more time to wait Spike, you know how important this could be!" as she had already started running off towards
the Everfree Forest.
They ran and ran through the streets on Ponyville and finally arrived at the edges of the Everfree Forest. Spike blurted out "W.. w.. why are we
going into the Everfree Forest? I thought we were going to talk to Rainbow Dash."
A quick reply came from Twilight "We are; she's waiting at Zecora's house. She and Zecora are probably discussing this terrible event up in Cloudsdale now,
but we must get moving, Spike!" They ran into the forest with no fear; they knew the Everfree Forest rather well now. They ran and ran, just narrowly avoiding the
poison joke plants--they remembered their last run in with that plant!
They arrived at Zecora's house to see Zecora and Rainbow Dash drinking some sort of herbal tea. Twilight thought to herself, "This can't be that urgent
if they're drinking tea and don't even seem worried!".
