Rainbow Dash and Daring Do; who was currently in disguise as A.K. Yearling; were having a great time at Sugar Cube Corner. Right now, Mr. and Mrs. Cake were out with the cake twins for a fun time; the only pony outside of the two pegasi was Pinkie Pie.

"And don't worry, I'll make sure to tell you if I see ANYPONY else comes in here while you two chat." Pinkie Pie said, smiling.

"Thanks for that Pinkie. Now, can you go grab us a milkshake?" Rainbow Dash asked her friend.

"Ookie Dookie Lookie." Pinkie Pie said but before going off, turned to the window. "...Hey, I can see you all there viewing this; but don't worry, I know you all can keep a secret." Pinkie Pie said before going off to make that milkshake.

"...Why was she talking to the window?" Daring Do asked.

"It's Pinkie Pie. Like I told you on the way here, the first rule of Ponyville is not to question Pinkie Pie." Rainbow Dash said. Just as Pinkie Pie came back with a Milkshake, suddenly Ahuizotl came through the door, badly injured, before falling down.

"WHAT THE...AHUIZOTL?!" Daring Do exclaimed as they helped him into a room where they could not be seen by anypony shortly after Pinkie Pie switched the sign from "Open" to "Closed" which allowed Daring Do to take off her disguise.

"What the hay happened to you tough guy?" Rainbow Dash asked Ahuizotl.

"Rainbow Dash...Daring Do...thank goodness I found you both here..." Ahuizotl said. "It's Dr. Caballeron; he's betrayed us..." He added.

"...Betrayed us how?" Daring Do asked.

Dr. Caballeron's henchmen soon beat up Ahuizotl as the evil pony soon took hold of an ancient tablet.

"You really should have just given this to me, Ahuizotl; but I suppose your doing your job as a guardian. But don't worry, you'll be seeing things my way soon enough." Dr. Caballeron said and then left with his Hench ponies.

"I have got to find Daring Do and Rainbow Dash...they are the only two ponies capable of stopping this now..." Ahuizotl said before leaving to find the duo in question.

"But why? We made a promise not to steal from any more temples." Daring Do asked.

"He must have returned to his no good evil ways. I knew some things were too good to be true." Rainbow Dash said.

"So...if you don't mind me asking...what's on that tablet?" Daring Do asked.

"A chant one can say when they have The Three Sacred Treasures to control all the guardians." Ahuizotl said.

"The Three Sacred Treasures? What are those?" Daring Do asked.

"Me and the other guardians have protected the secret of these sacred treasures for a reason: For whomever holds all three will have the power to control all of the guardians." Ahuizotl said.

"That would NOT be good in the hands of somepony like Caballeron." Rainbow Dash said.

"So, you want us to go find them before Caballeron does?" Daring Do asked.

"I'm not stupid..." Ahuizotl said before handing the duo a map. "And neither were we. Our predecessors scattered the three sacred treasures to the edges of Equis while mine protected the chant in the west. One treasure is hidden in the Frozen North; another is to the east past the Dragon Lands; and the final treasure is to the far south, far past kludgetown. Since you have connections to all three locations Rainbow Dash, that will give you two a head start on Caballeron in each direction." Ahuizotl said. The map had the locations mentioned circled on the map.

"So all we gotta do is find one and keep it away from Caballeron and his goons." Rainbow Dash said. "I'll be ready first thing tomorrow, and with the world at stake, this is big." Rainbow Dash said, and then left.

"Where is she going?" Daring Do asked.

"Rainbow Dash is a Wonderbold." Pinkie Pie answered.

"That IS big...and if Dr. Caballeron gets a hold of the three sacred treasures, it would mean certain doom." Twilight said.

"Your taking Rainbow Dash at her word? Isn't Daring Do a bunch of fanfiction?" Spitfire said; she was in on this meeting.

"Actually, it's not." Rainbow Dash said. "Or did you NOT see me on the cover of one of the books?" She asked.

"I don't bother looking at the books in the first place." Spitfire said. Twilight sighed and then levetated the book in question.

"I wouldn't be so quick to judge." Twilight said. The book in question was the "Ring of Fate" book.

"I still don't buy this..." Spitfire said.

"Alright egghead, got any other ideas?" Rainbow Dash asked. Suddenly Daring Do showed up, not in disguise.

"What the...DARING DO IS REAL?!" Spitfire exclaimed. "So then the books...and the adventures...and everything..." She suddenly fainted.

"...Was it something I did?" Daring Do asked.

"No. No you did not." Rainbow Dash said.

"This is...I would have never guessed..." Spitfire was struck speechless.

"Gee, where does THIS seem familiar?" Twilight asked, winking at Rainbow Dash.

"Believe it or not Spitfire, I had a similar reaction. Believe me, finding out a book series you thought was pure fanfiction is in fact reality, is a whole shocker." Rainbow Dash said.

"So...then everything in the books is real..." Spitfire said.

"Eh...I may have taken a few..." Daring Do started to say before Rainbow Dash stopped her with a hoof in her mouth.

"What she means is, she and A.K. Yearling are really good friends; Daring Do goes on the adventures, gives the details to A.K. Yearling, and then A.K. Yearling takes a few creative liberties with the stories but for the most part, everything that happens is word for word. Which means yes, there were a few times I did join Daring Do on her adventures. And this time will be no different. It's just going to be for much higher stakes." Rainbow Dash said.

"Well I wanted proof that you weren't lying and...I can't argue with Daring Do literally staring me in the face." Spitfire said. "Which is why, I'm making it your personal mission to go out and stop Dr. Caballeron from collecting these Three Sacred Treasures. I want a full report once your done." She said.

"Or you could just read the next book when it comes out." Rainbow Dash said before Daring Do could say it.

"...Yeah...yeah good point. I suppose I might as well read the entire series from the beginning while I wait for you to get back." Spitfire said.

"I have copies of the entire series." Twilight said, before giving Spitfire copies of every book to date. "So you may borrow them." She added.

"And don't knock them until you've read them." Rainbow Dash said. "Trust me, I did the same, and I found myself a fan." She said. "Then I actually got to live them." She added.

"That's a brag isn't it?" Spitfire asked. RD nodded. "I'll see you when you get back Dash." Spitfire said before flying off.

"Sorry for showing up so early but what the hoof in mouth for?" Daring Do asked.

"To stop you from revealing your secret." Rainbow Dash asked, smiling. Daring Do went wide eyed.

"So then...that was a lie?" Daring Do asked.

"Yep. And look, Spitfire totally bought it. She has no clue what-so-ever of your secret." Rainbow Dash said.

"Well...I guess all I can say is thanks Rainbow Dash. I'm glad your on this with me." Daring Do said.

"Be careful you two." Twilight said.

"We will!" The Duo said as they left to prepare for tomorrow.
