Kaelynn expected more resistance in separating out their group for this first expedition. Obviously, every human would want to go down to the Worldgate, which would probably make Galena nervous about being left behind. Or worse, maybe they should be afraid of getting their ship stolen. It wouldn’t be so bad as being sold into slavery, but for Kaelynn the result would likely be just as deadly.That wasn't what happened. They dropped almost all the way to the ground, low enough that they could extend a ramp…-

Gina didn’t have a chance to struggle. As little as she thought of the fierceness of ponies, she wasn’t going to test them in combat. It wasn’t really fair to take the victory of the best warriors in Accipio against a crew of unprepared sailors as proof that no pony anywhere could be a danger to her.These bats in particular were unlike the ponies she had seen before. Every bat she’d ever seen had been in some kind of military position or another. Escorting Princess Luna, pulling her chariot. Now…-

Jamie knew she would have to make her time in the royal castle productive. With no creature coming to rescue her and no skills to escape, her only hope of survival transformed to simple cleverness. Maybe there was some fact she could use as blackmail hidden away, or some weakness of the princess’s defenses.And maybe there was, but if that was the case, Jamie just couldn’t figure out what it might be.

With Pinkie Pie’s revival, Twilight barely had the time or the energy for what would come next.

It had to be at least two in the morning, maybe later. It was hard to know without a clock. Their entire group huddled together in the center of the little bedroom, hanging on Jacob's every word. He was still a little dazed, his mind turning over everything Sunset had told him in the hall. He had rushed back immediately to share it with his friends—they had as much right to know as he did."Before you explain it Jacob, think about how you feel right now." Harley folded her arms, looking stern. "Don't try…-

"Step within, or the others die!" Celestia's voice boomed out from the glowing sphere, so loud that several crewmen dropped to their knees. A few kept firing their strange weapons into its surface, without effect. They might be more than a match for the royal guard, but this was the Alicorn herself. Her power was so great that it could not be easily confined."Wake up," whispered a voice in her ear, literally. It was Pixie, perched on her shoulder and overcome with fear. Rarely had she heard the little…-

There was silence in the courtroom, as what few ponies in the stands gasped and pointed. Tracy could only hope they thought those charges were as outrageous as he did. No one dared speak, until Princess Luna finally rose from her throne, glaring across the room. “Equestria declines to prosecute on the charge of interdimensional incursion and criminal destruction of property. With no charges, the court—”Discord cleared his throat loudly. “Excuse me, Princess. But I wouldn’t want this body to…-
