Twilight Sparkle marched down the line of supplies that everypony had gathered in a meadow not far from Ponyville.

"Tents, check. Sleeping bags, check. Pillows, check. Sea chart, check. Compass, check. Telescope, check. Food, check. Water, check," Twilight Sparkle said aloud as she went through a list levitating in front of her. "Are we forgetting anything?"

"Why the camping equipment? We're not going to be sleeping outdoors are we? Can't we just fly straight there and back?" asked Rarity.

"It's a precaution. I would like to think Frazzle Spark could make it there before dark, but there's a lot of variables." answered Twilight.

"But if we're flying over the ocean won't it be kind of hard to set up a camp?" Rarity persisted.

"I don't need a sleeping back or a tent. I could fall asleep right here," said Rainbow Dash from inside one of the giant saddle bags strapped to Frazzle Spark. "Good thinking with the pony sized saddle bags, Rarity."

"Why is it again I have to carry everypony and all the supplies?" asked Frazzle Spark.

"Because you're a giant dragon, that's why. Suck it up." replied Sharp Wing.

"But it might be heavy," protested Frazzle Spark. "Besides, I don't have any experience flying. What if I get too tired and fall into the ocean?"

"You won't have to worry about that, Frazzle Spark. I've mapped out our route with plenty of islands along the way. If you get tired we can stop on one of them," Twilight Sparkle reassured him.

"You really don't need to come with us. We've already inconvenienced you enough already," Night Mist apologized to Twilight Sparkle.

“It’s not a problem at all. Like I said, I've always wanted to visit Zecora's homeland," Twilight Sparkle replied.

"What's her homeland called again? Does it rhyme?" questioned Pinkie Pie.

"No, it’s called Zebrawbway," Twilight informed her.

"That's a funny name for a land," Pinkie Pie remarked.

"It's not funny, it’s just different. Zebrawbway is different from Equestria in a lot of ways."

"The supplies are all secured," reported Apple Jack as she gave one last tug on one of the giant saddle bags.

"I can't believe I actually get to come along on an adventure with you guys! Usually I get left out because of the whole not being one of the Elements of Harmony thing, but not this time!" Spike said gleefully from atop Frazzle Spark's head.

"Well hopefully we won't need the Elements of Harmony. We're just flying there and back, no danger or anything right?" asked Fluttershy.

"More like an errand than a full fledged adventure, sugercube," Apple Jack assured her.

"Get in your saddlebags everypony, we’re taking off!" announced Twilight Sparkle.

Everypony got into their respective bags and adjusted themselves so that only their heads were poking out the top.

"Alright, B.D.B, lets fly!" Spike cheered.

"Aye-aye, Captain L.D.B!" Frazzle Spark confirmed as he kicked up off of the ground and into the air.

Fluttershy let out a little shriek as they did so.

After a few hours Ponyville was out of sight. Sharp Wing felt relaxed for the first time since her transformation as she watched the scenery below switch from forest to beach and then to ocean water. That peace was instantly shattered when Frazzle Spark let loose a loud roar.

"Ow, why did you do that?" asked Night Mist as he rubbed his ears.

"No reason in particular, just wanted to see what it felt like." admitted Frazzle Spark.

"Well, please don't do it again," Fluttershy requested.

The group lapsed into silence as Frazzle Spark flew on.

"So, Night Mist, explain the whole amnesia thing to me," said Apple Jack in an effort to prompt a conversation, "Clearly ya remember how to talk, but what else do ya remember?"

"I know basic things, like water is for drinking or that I should have more memories than I do, but nothing else. I didn't even know my own name until Fluttershy told me," Night Mist explained.

"And how did ya go about asking Fluttershy?" Apple Jack asked.

"Oh, he was very polite about it. He just walked up to me on the street and told me he didn't know who he was or where he was," Fluttershy chimed in.

"Do you know what your cutie mark talent is?” questioned Pinkie Pie.

"Let me guess, I noticed it was a magnifying glass, is it some kind of science?" Night Mist guessed.

"Close, your cutie mark talent is frying ants," Sharp Wing lied in good humor.

"Ha, somehow I doubt that," Night Mist grinned.

"No, seriously, isn't that his special talent, Apple Jack?" Sharp Wing said as she winked at Apple Jack.

"Oh, absolutely, you could fry an ant with a magnifying glass every second when ya point yer mind to it," said Apple Jack, playing along.

"Ha, I knew you were a liar! So much for being the Element of Honesty!" Sharp Wing called out.

"Well, shoot, I guess I'm busted!" laughed Apple Jack.

Night Mist smiled, but Sharp Wing could tell by his raised brow that he didn't know what it meant to be the Element of Honesty.

"Your cutie mark talent is finding the truth," Fluttershy informed Night Mist.

"Well, nice to see somepony does care about telling me the truth. I guess you could say I just proved you right."

"How do you know Fluttershy isn't lying to you too?" smirked Rainbow Dash.

"Because she seems like a very nice pony and nothing she's said thus far has been contradicted." Night Mist retorted.

"Look out!" Rarity suddenly screeched.

Everypony yelled as Frazzle Spark swerved straight up to avoid a huge blur of blue and green as it surged out of the water with a large roar of rushing water. All Sharp Wing could do was gape as her eyes locked onto the sight now before her. It was an enormous blue dragon with green spines and wings. However, it wasn't like any dragon she had seen before. It had webbed claws and had what appeared to be water vapor rising from its nostrils, not smoke.

Green fins adorned its body in several places, including a large fin on the tip of its tail instead of a spade, and fins on its elbows. The dragon locked eyes with Frazzle Spark and let loose a terrifying roar. Out of either fear or instinct, Frazzle Spark replied with a roar of his own. The blue and green dragon cocked its head back as if sizing Frazzle Spark up.

"I'll rip your heart out," it grinned wickedly.

Frazzle Spark didn't respond.

"What are you waiting for? Make a comeback, show her not to mess with you!" Spike whispered.

An idea sprang into Sharp Wing's head. If the dragon before them was a she, maybe Frazzle Spark could charm her into not killing all of them. But before she could tell Frazzle Spark her idea he went with Spike's suggestion.

"I'll tear out your throat!" he growled.

So much for charm.

"I'll drown you at the bottom of the ocean!" snarled the she-dragon.

"I'll roast you to the bone!"

The she-dragon blinked as if surprised.

"Nice comeback! The name's Typhoon, what’s yours?"

"Frazzle Spark," Frazzle Spark answered automatically, clearly stunned by the dragon's sudden change in attitude.

"Nice to meet you, I like your snack bags."

"Oh, um, thanks, Rarity made them."

Sharp Wing face-hoofed. The roasting to the bone line had been good, but when it came to improvising Frazzle Spark didn't come close to her.

"Rarity? Who’s that?"

Frazzle Spark pointed a claw at Rarity.

The she-dragon, Typhoon, leaned in to study Rarity, who let out a little squeak.

"You forced a unicorn to make her own snack bag? That's so cruel!"

From the way the she-dragon said "cruel" it sounded like a compliment.

"Thanks?"

"How'd you do it? Threaten to eat her friends slowly if she refused?"

"Um, yeah, that's exactly how I did it," Frazzle Spark fibbed.

"That's pretty smart, I gotta try that. Too bad ponies don't get as big as they used to nowadays, am I right?"

"Um, yeah, totally, those were the days all right."

"Yeah, natural selection can be such a- hello! Who’s this?" said the she-dragon abruptly as she noticed Spike for the first time.

"That's Spike, my, uh, little dragon buddy."

"Hey," said Spike.

"He's so adorable!"

Spike only frowned.

"Are you two going on a trip or something?"

As disturbing as the conversation was, it was becoming more and more clear to Sharp Wing that the she-dragon had no apparent intention of killing anypony. Sharp Wing was starting to wish the she-dragon would stop talking and move on.

"He's taking me to Zebrawbway to show me how to hunt for treasure," Spike answered casually.

"Cool, I remember when my older brother took me treasure hunting for the first time. I found a lot but then he took all the treasure for himself. Took me centuries before I was big enough to steal it back," Typhoon recalled fondly.

"That's nice. We should probably be flying on now, lots of treasure to find," Frazzle Spark hinted.

"Sure, sure, I'm going to go do the same. Nice meeting you both, hopefully we'll run into each other again," Typhoon said sweetly before she slipped back underneath the waves. The entire group let out an audible sigh of relief.

"Well, that was extremely terrifying, who knew dragons could be so talkative?" Sharp Wing remarked.

"Nice acting you two, you probably saved all of us from a horrible fate," Apple Jack complimented the dragons.

"I didn't do much, Typhoon did nearly all the talking," Frazzle Spark said humbly.

"I feel like we just met the dragon version of Pinkie Pie, minus the pony eating and sadistic nature." Rainbow Dash commented.

"That was terrible, let’s fly away from here and fast as possible," urged Fluttershy.

"We're coming up on an island, let's stop to eat lunch and calm our nerves," decided Twilight Sparkle as she studied the sea chart.

The entire group agreed this was a good plan.
