"Between the claws there you lie

Watch out for the beast that will rise

Although it may be someone new

Not every belief may be true."

The sun bloomed on the horizon of the earth, it glowed with orange-colored light, golden petals stretched across the big blue sky, as a magnificent ring of fire. Like a radiant flower in full bloom, casting its warm embrace upon all below. An invitation to a new bright day. As the sun awakened, so too do the creatures of the planet. The birds woke up from their slumber and began their melodic songs, adding to the symphony of nature's arousal. Meanwhile, the early risers went out for their daily morning strolls, greeted by the familiar warmth and comfort of the rising sun.

With each passing moment, the scene became hectic as the sun rose higher in the sky. People rushed about in preparation for their day ahead while nature continued its timeless routine.

A teenage girl with vivid crimson hair that had brilliant yellow stripes walked through Canterlot's forest park. She held the dark brown bag over her shoulder and a phone in her other hand as she chattered with her friend through FaceTime, "I'm telling you, Sunset. This thing would be so helpful for any dangerous situations, an easy small transportation device wouldn't hurt anybody." Twilight spoke from her phone, proudly showing off the round silver pendant-like device with blue lines.

It was nearly similar to Twilight's previous gadget she had not so long ago, it didn't bring Sunset very good memories, "I am not concerned about the transportation part-- actually, I kinda am. But how can we be sure the same thing won't happen again like... during the Friendship games?" the amber-colored girl reminded hesitantly.

"There's no need to worry about that anymore, I've got it fully covered!" her purple friend reassured, "Its function is entirely changed and upgraded. With the help of Ratchet and Fixit, of course. Although it still doesn't work properly, I will have to talk with them when we arrive at the base. Have you messaged the other Twilight yet?"

As she heard the question, Sunset glanced at the side, awkwardly stroking the back of her neck, "No, I'm wondering what exactly to say to her."

"Are you going to tell her about the whole... robot situation?"

"We promised Optimus not to reveal their existence to others, remember? Also, I have no idea how would she react..."

"That makes sense." Twilight replied, sticking out her tongue while she made a few more adjustments to the tiny device with her working tools. Small sparks came out of it and she jumped in surprise, quickly blowing the smoke away.
