2. Storm's Abrewing
By Sango-Blazer Skies


After a long train ride, they got off to the station and headed towards to the inner parts of Manehattan. Currently, they weren't suppose to be sightseeing. They were suppose to be heading towards the harbor to find a boat that was taking them to Saddle Arabia. With a crowd of ponies everywhere, they were never going to find their way toward the dock. Rarity was amazed at the look of Manehattan' s appearance from below. She was so distracted that she wasn't watching where she was going and bumped right into a salespony.

She shouted ", You have to be bucking kidding me. Bumping into me like that!" Rarity was immediately angry after what she had just said. "Excuse me darling, such rude language!" Rarity shouted at her. "Rarity, calm down", bellowed Applejack. " It was just an accident".

Rarity took deep breaths that way she would calm down much faster. She wondered ", What has gotten to these ponies lately?" They wondered the streets of Manehattan looking for the harbor, they immediately got lost after searching for hours and soon they had to ask for directions. They came towards everybody in the city, but it seemed as if they didn't know where the dock was. They were all in the inner parts of the city themselves.

The path they were on, could it lead them intro the right direction? They walked for about 15minutes, turned right and after an exhausting walk they saw the view of a bay, with the sun's rays shining, it sparkled beautifully. Surprise became confused at the sight that there were many boats docked by the harbor ", Guys, but how can we tell which ferry leads to Saddle Arabia? There's like ten ferrys docked on the harbor. How will we know which one?" There big signs on the dock marking which ferry leads to what location/country.

"No need to rush, we have to keep walking until we find the right ferry", Rainbow said with determination. "Rainbow's right, let's start walking", Soarin called loudly.

"According to all these signs, none of these ferries lead to Saddle Arabia. It might be the last one that has already been docked", Twilight suggested, while observing the signs.

"Guys let's get on, Celestia already paid for everything. What we need to eat, our roo-", Pinkie was cut off by Twilight' s hoof over her mouth. "Okay guys, let's get in", the purple alicorn said as she used her hooves to tell them to get on board of the ferry.

Twilight perked up ," We totally forgot the luggage, where's Spike and Fleetfoot? They should be here by now". Two voices called out, "Were here, Twilight!".

"Took you two long enough", Rainbow said impatiently.


After they got on the ship, somepony was there to greet them. The stallion was pretty tall in height, he wore a suit of black, Twilight knew he would be their personal butler. "My name is Blazing Comet and I'll will be your personal butler", he said. " Please come with me, I was told to give you a tour of the ferry and then lead you the expanded suites". He lead them into the various features of the ferry, everypony just stared in awe without even speaking.

He lead them to the first spot to where they were going to sight see; a spot that was outside, still on the ferry. It was filled with a big table with about 15 chairs. The room had a pretty high ceiling, everyone knew what room this was; the dining hall.
" This is this is the place where you'll be eating your daily meals, and over there is a small buffet bar filled with one of the most delectable foods you will taste. And for dinner very night, there's something different", he said. He then signaled them out of the dining hall and into the next room. " Here's the spa, where you can relieve your stress from a tiring day".

Rainbow was confused. " What, that it for the tour?" Blazing Comet nodded. " Yes, I was only told to show three features of the ship, nothing more. Now enjoy your stay here". He walked off disappearing down the hall to the lounge.

"Guys, what do we do now. We got here already and what are we gonna do?", Fleetfoot groaned. She was a feisty mare during those occasions, even when it comes to knowing your way around big ships like a ferry.

Fire Streak gave her a dirty look. "Gee Fleet, what's your problem?" The impatient mare gave him an angry look."My problem?! I don't have a problem with myself!"

"No I don't!"

"Yeah you do!"

"No I don't!"

Twilight's horn started to glow, causing the two wonderbolts to stop arguing as they were still looking for each other angrily. "Fleetfoot and Fire Streak, you better stop arguing like you're in flight school again", Twilight said. They both nodded and went to the others.

"Okay guys, let's explore the ferry", Fluttershy insisted, as she walked off into the direction of the spa. "Darling, wait for me", Rarity cried, running after her. The spa was the most popular place in the entire ferry, as they headed off into the direction of the spa, they didn't notice that a shadow was lurking upon them.

"Thunderwing, keep an eye on them", somepony's voice said from a walkie talkie. "On it sir". The pegasus nodded his head. "On it sir. One question, what am I suppose to do sir?"

"I want you to keep an eye on the wonderbolts and the elements. Make sure they won't bust into our business when they get there".

Back in the Spa.


Rarity, Fluttershy, the others and the Wonderbolts were all in the ship's spa.The walls were painted ocean and light blue, t was an amazing sight to see. While Rarity and Shy we're in the massage area, the others were in the Jacuzzi, a pool filled with hot warm water. "This is so relaxing, isn't it guys?", Twilight said. The others just nodded in reply as they just relaxed, but what they didn't know was that a storm was abrewing.

Meanwhile Thunderwing, one of the Pegasus guards that protected the king was sneakily in hiding. He had rented a bedroom with a television set, which also had a closet to keep clothes in. His orders were to keep an eye on the elements and make sure they won't talk about any of their plots, if they did, he would kidnap them and find a facility to put them. But first he had to knock them out. It seemed he didn't like taking orders from his officer, who was a bat pony. He couldn't handle him, but he still had those sad memories of flight school. He remembered about a certain rainbow filly that he use to be friends with, she was incredibly cute when she was younger.

He shook himself out of his thoughts." Why am I thinking about her?" He realized if he didn't do his job, his officer would kill him for sure. Thunder said to himself ", Might as well do this tomorrow". He looked at the clock in the hall, it said 8:50. He totally forgot about keeping an eye on them, but he was definitely tired after a long day. Remembering he was sent home to Manehattan to visit his family, then he had to board the ferry back to Saddle Arabia for his job as protector of the Cultan. He tiredly walked off to his bedroom without making a sound.

Author's Notes:

I'm apologize for the late update, fellow readers. I was extremely exhausted to finish the chapter, but here it is. It's not much as I think it is. But I desperately had to finish it, but even thinking ideas was hard. I put Thunderwing in this chapter because......Oh it's hard to explain:facehoof:. Anyway, I won't make any promises of when the next chapter will be out. Yep, time to take a break, I think. Sorry sorry, it was late. Next chapter will take a lot of time to write, yes, it will have more then 2,000 words, longer then I will expect it.
But I need a break, so I'll read other fanfics. I expect the 4th chapter to be up next next week. Anyway, gotta hit the clouds.
