Chapter 2

            The six ponies had reached the beach after stopping to drop off the trophy. The sand gleamed under the sun beating down on them and it was a beautiful day to be out. The ponies were more than ready to enjoy a blissful afternoon of relaxation on the beach. However their vacation from the world around them was interrupted by the sound of shouting coming from down the coast. They paused their own conversation and exchanged confused glances before trying to make out what was being said.

            “You know what!? I bet this is your fault with your stupid magic!” a stallion’s voice shouted.

“My fault!? How could you be sure it’s not yours!? You certainly are stupid enough!” another stallion retorted with a proper sounding accent.

“How about the both of you shut up until we figure out what the hell is going on!” interrupted a deeper voice with a rougher sounding accent.

            There was a short silence as the ponies all exchanged slightly worried expressions. Looking down the beach they saw a quartet of ponies arguing with each other. “Um… you guys think we should head down that way a bit?” Zone asked the group pointing in the opposite direction of the shouting ponies.

            They didn’t get a chance however as one of the stallions noticed their group and called out to them. “Hey! Over there! Wait up!” the first one yelled over to them. They watched cautiously as a red coated pegasus cantered clumsily in their direction across the sand. He stopped and smiled as he reached them. His mane and tail were both rather messy and white and blue. “Guys! C’mon!” he called back at the other three trailing after him before turning again to the ponies before him. “Hi, name’s America.” he told them holding out a hoof and nearly falling over. “Sorry, this is still pretty weird. So, um, where exactly is this?” he asked the group. Nopony took his hoof or answered the question as they were all taken a little aback.

            As he finished the three other pegasi came up next to him. One that looked rather alike to him except for the fact that he was slightly smaller, and two others that were slightly more contrasting. The first of these two had a black coat, a rather sturdy build, and a well-kept yellow and red mane and tail. Then the last of the quartet of pegasi had a white coat, and a tidy red mane and tail. They were slightly concerned about the demeanor of the ponies before them. The first stallion who had said his name was America had a sort of absent minded grin on his face, the one with the similar appearance to his own was glaring at him, the black pegasus had a thoroughly annoyed look on his face, and the final pegasus stallion betrayed no emotion in his expression.

            Spot was the first to recover from the awkward and slightly tense atmosphere. “This is Pegasus Beach.” he answered simply.

“Right, uh, Pegasus Beach.” America answered uncertainly.

“I’m afraid we’re a little lost. Pegasus Beach where exactly?” the other red pegasus queried.

“Pegasus Beach, Unisus Isle.” Astro offered.

“Unfortunately we need even more information than that.” the black pegasus replied begrudgingly.

“Unisus Isle, Unisus. It is sort of the capitol of the country.” Kara answered giving the mysterious group questioning looks.

“Actually we sorta didn’t know.” America responded smiling awkwardly.

“Oh great, now we look like complete idiots. You know they didn’t need to know that!” the second red pegasus retorted.
