Spike was asleep on a couch in the tree house. Clutched in his claw was a rolled up scroll. Twilight walked into the room. She looked at Spike.

"Spike, time to wake up!" Spike shot up, confused and sleepy.

"Huh?" Twilight was already leaving the room, but could still be heard through the doorway.

"I need you to send a letter to Princess Celestia."

"Okay. Just let me get a pen and paper."

"No need. I already wrote it. I just need you to send it." Spike looked down at his hand and saw the scroll. He shrugged his shoulders and sent it using his fire. He sighed.

"It's sent." At this, Twilight popped her head into the room. She had a confused look on her face.

"How? I haven't given it to you yet…"

"Then what was that scroll I was holding?" There was an awkward silence. Twilight looked all around the room and noticed a quill next to Spike.

"Spike?"

"Yeah?"

"Do you ever write before you go to bed?"

"Oh yeah. All the time."

"What do you write about?" At this question, Spike looked angrily at Twilight, blushing.

"That's none of your business!" This reaction shocked Twilight.

"I mean, do you keep a journal or something like that?" Spike quickly calmed down.

"Yeah…."

"And you write an entry EVERY night? BEFORE you go to bed?" Realization dawned on Spike's face.

"Oh no…"

"You just sent your journal to Princess Celestia, didn't you?"

"Yes…"

"Well, at least there isn't anything mortally humiliating that you wrote about that you don't want anypony to see, and if they did see it, you'd run away in fear of their mocking laughter and swear never to show your face again around Equestria and you'd become a hermit, just living on your own in some dark cave, until the very end of time itself. Right?" There was a silence. Spike looked at her suspiciously.

"….That's a bit specific…"

"Well, what can you do?" Spike went to a closet and pulled out a pack. He put it on and started walking. "Where are you going?"

"To get my journal back."

"Oh, okay! I'll fly us to Canterlot!" And with that, Twilight swooped up Spike and started to fly off to Canterlot, with Spike screaming.

The pair arrived in Canterlot and ran to the castle. It took a while, since they had to fight the crowd. It didn't help that Twilight kept stopping to look at the different stalls. See, today was just an average market day in Canterlot, with ponies gathered here and there, hoping to get the most out of their bits.

Once the duo made it to the castle, Spike burst through the front door. Inside waited Princess Luna. Princess Celestia was nowhere to be seen, and Spike was worried. In his haste, he forgot to bow to Princess Luna.

"Where's Princess Celestia?!" Princess Luna didn't notice that Spike didn't bow. In fact, she was a bit excited.

"Ahh, Spike! You just missed here. She said she had an important letter to return to you, so she headed down to Ponyville."

"What?! Just my luck… Come on Twilight, let's go." The two ran out, flying back to Ponyville. Spike hoped it wasn't too late.
