A big crowd had arrivd at the party for alicorn Twilight in Canterlot. That had been the biggest party in Canterlot since the Royal Wedding. Twilight met with Princess Celestia under the party.

"You and your friends are invited to be a part of the Crystal Emprie games closing ceremony next weekend that is hosted annual." Princess Celestia told Twilight.

"The Crystal Empire games are the biggest event in the north." the princess told Twilight.

After the two princess had shared their memories of the Crystal Empire, was they hearing a speech for Twilight. The party for Twilight had first ended in the evening. That next day had the six ponies and Spike taken out in a Canterlot park. The ponies and Spike took a hike home through a forest in Canterlot. It was quiet and sunny in the forest, and the birds sang. Spike and the ponies thought they heard a thing run by them. Twilight and her friends heard dog noises.

"Whatever that dog is it can't be well." Spike told his friends.

The ponies and Spike got startled by the sight of the dog that was not alive. It was a living corpse of a dog, and it was dripping with blood. The baby dragon and his friends ran all they could through the forest without stopping up. As the ponies and Spike ran from the bloody corpse dog, was they seeing it was not after them. That living corpse dog seemed to chase another animal. Even if the living and blood covered corpse suddenly disappeared, was they still running until they came out of that forest. Twilight and her friends took a break in Applejack's orchard on the way back home.
