SUNSET GLARE AND EIRA RUN ALONG A SIDEWALK BEFORE THEY arrive on the front lawn of Canterlot High School.
It is late afternoon, and Applejack and Rainbow Blitz are already at the steps, the latter kneeling over his guitar case, as Butterscotch and Elusive walk up.
"Blitz, we got your text, what's wrong?" Eira asks her boyfriend in concern.
"Did something come through the portal? Is Equestrian magic on the loose? Did Dusk come back with a problem that only we can solve?" Sunset questions.
Bubble Berry appears out of nowhere, holding a cupcake in each hand and grinning hugely. "Has a giant cake monster covered all the cakes in the world in cake?" He wolfs down one cupcake in one bite, giving the other to Eira, who gladly takes it.
Blitz stands up, lifting his guitar from the case. "Um...not exactly."
"Uh...I don't understand." Sunset is confused while Eira munches on her cupcake, the frosting getting all over her mouth.
Applejack crosses to Rainbow, who has shifted his grip on the axe to clearly show a popped string.
The cowboy spoke testily, poking at it. "Well, Sunset, Peach, I was just tellin' Rainbow Blitz here that a broken guitar string doesn't really qualify as an emergency."
"It totally does!" Blitz insisted.
Here comes Elusive —reading glasses on, measuring tape around his shoulders, and a pincushion strapped to one wrist.
"Really, Rainbow Blitz! I was in the middle of sewing a very complex appliqué on my latest frock,"
Butterscotch steps in, petting Angel the rabbit. "And I was just about to tuck everyone in for the night at the shelter. Now we'll have to start stories all over again."
