My Little pony:A New Spark!
In Mare time bay at the Crystal Bright House,Sunny is humming,multitasking in the kitchen. The morning sun streams in. She deftly prepares an elaborate breakfast: bright,colorful smoothies, a stack of fluffy pancakes,bacon and sausages somehow mixed perfectly into the fruit platter. It’s chaotic but appealing. Sparky,the baby dragon,is chasing his own tail,letting out small, fiery hiccups that lightly singe a kitchen curtain.
Sunny:Careful with the curtains,little guy! We just had those laundered.
In Bridlewood,Izzy and Misty are exploring a pile of discarded odds and ends outside Izzy’s craft studio.
Izzy:Ooh! A bent fork! Perfect for a mini-trident for a squirrel king!
Misty giggles,sorting through some wire.
Misty:We can make anything new again,can't we,Izzy?
Izzy:That’s the spirit! Now, time for Lesson Two:Advanced Unicycling!
Izzy perfectly balances on a unicycle made of reclaimed wood and an old tire. Misty cautiously approaches her own,wobbling instantly.
Misty:Maybe we should start with Lesson One:Standing Still?
In Mare time bay at Mane Medley,Pipp is live streaming to a huge audience. Her portable studio is filled with sparkling bottles of perfume and ring lights
Pipp:...and this one is called "Star Scents" It smells like ambition and a light mist of glitter! Link in my bio to purchase!
The sounds of the chime notifications on her stream. In Mare time bay at the Sheriff Station,Hitch is doing his morning rounds, greeting townsfolk and ensuring everything is peaceful. He's calm and efficient.
Hitch:Morning,Mrs. Paws! Keep those kittens away from the fish market!
In Mare time bay at the Detective Station,Zipp's official Detective Station is slightly sparse, but she’s pinning recruitment posters to a bulletin board:
"WANTED:Sharp Eyes,Keen Minds,No Hoofing Around."
Zipp:Need all the help I can get if these dark cloud incidents keep up.
She stares intently at a pinboard covered in clues about the weird magic glitches and the dark clouds. She’s stuck. She sighs in frustration, pacing. Back at the Crystal Bright house, Sparky hiccups again,a bigger burst of fire this time. It hits an old,rolled-up parchment sitting on a high shelf that Zipp previously missed. The parchment unfurls. It's an ancient MAP. Zipp rushes back, alerted by the commotion. She stares at the map Sparky accidentally found.
Zipp:Sparky! I'm trying to work! Wait...
She examines the map. It shows detailed pathways leading directly to... PONYVILLE. And specifically,a large outline of a CASTLE.
Zipp:Ponyville? Twilight's castle? This changes everything.
Zipp immediately pulls out her phone, dialing Sunny's number urgently.
Zipp:We have a new lead, Sunny. Pack the Marestream. I think the answers are hidden there.
The five friends gather around Zipp’s phone on speaker mode,discussing their plan of action. Sparky is sniffing the ancient map.
Hitch:Ponyville? That place has been off the grid for centuries. Why would anything be there now?
Zipp:The map is specific, Hitch. It points to a castle ruin. We’ve hit a dead end here trying to figure out these glitches and those dark clouds. We need old answers for new problems.
Sunny:Zipp's right. Twilight Sparkle was the last true bearer of friendship magic before all of this. Her library, her castle...it has to hold something. We need a second approach.
Pipp:A second approach sounds like a new accessory line! Kidding. But seriously,getting the old gang back together for a road trip? Sounds fabulous!
Izzy:I’ll bring the crafting supplies! Misty can navigate!
Misty:I can navigate? Okay. As long as it’s not too bumpy.
Hitch:Alright, alright. I’ll meet you all at the Marestream launch point. Duty calls.
The call ends. Sunny folds up the map carefully.
Sunny:Let’s roll out.
