Rainbow Dash stood on top of the base, watching the dark clouds slowly form around the tribe’s home. Beside her Morning Dew was informing Dash about what the weather patrol had attempted with the strange clouds.

"We can't even land on them, Lieutenant General..." Morning Dew sighed, her pale green eyes watching as the last of her team gave up.

"Okay, so all we know about them is that they don't respond to our actions, right?" Rainbow Dash frowned, narrowing her eyes. "The only kind of clouds that wouldn't respond to Pegasi are magic made, yet I doubt the unicorns know enough about weather to manipulate it."

"That's the only thing we can think of, though!" Morning Dew cried out, ears drooping.

"Yeah yeah, I know. I mean I'd try Sonic Rainbooming those things out of here, but 'Shy wants me off my wings for another week." The cyan mare muttered, shrugging. "I'll organize a meeting with the tribe leaders. ‘Sides, we need to get the food issue resolved anyway."

Morning Dew stared at Dash with a confused and curious look on her face. "............. If Chief Sergeant Fluttershy wants you to not use your wings, how did you-"

"Not important," Rainbow Dash interrupted, shaking her head quickly. "Anyway, take the weather team and go help rebuild the storage. Got it?"

"Yes, Lieutenant General!" Morning Dew quickly saluted, flying downwards instantly.

Dash looked at the clouds, and sighed. "Magic? Dunno...." She looked down, frowning as she noticed a certain pink mare bouncing around. "What the hay is she doing.....? Better go fi-"

"Hi Dashie! Whatcha looking at on the ground?" Pinkies voice chirped happily from behind her.

Jumping, Rainbow Dash spun around to see Pinkie grinning at her. "What the-?! But you were just-?! How did you-?!"

Pinkie tilted her head, looking at Dash with curious eyes. "How did I what?"

"You were just on the ground! I saw you!" Dash gestured dramatically toward the ground.

"Oh yeah! That! Don't worry about it, Dashie!" Pinkie exclaimed, bouncing slightly in place. "I wanted to show you the PERFECT place where our new home should be!"

Dash shook her head, the pony’s crazy antics going over her head. "Uh okay?"

"Great!! Okay see that building riiiiiight over there?" Pinkie sang, pointing to a cloud home floating almost across from them. "Right under there! It's a really pretty home. I wonder who's it is?"

"Pinkie, that's my home." Dash spoke with a mildly amused tone.

"Oh! Wow it really is pretty! You made it? Woooooow you did a good job Dashie!" Pinkie stared at the floating home as if it was the greatest thing she had ever seen in her entire life.

Rainbow Dash chuckled at the pink mare, trotting over to lean gently against her. "Glad you think so. When my wings are better I'll show you around in there. For now, I should probably talk to Hurricane about getting that meeting with the other two tribes organized..."

*****

Hurricane shuffled through the two sets of armor that littered the ground, snatching up her armor and sliding it on quickly. Pansy watched the scene unfold, her heart clenching. After she had admitted her feelings for Hurricane, she practically launched herself several feet away as if she was burned.

“Hurricane...” Pansy’s voice held heartbreak and desperation, freezing Hurricane in mid-motion.

Taking several deep breaths to calm herself, Hurricane spoke with a strained voice. “What is it, Private?”

Pansy felt as though her heart was being trampled and torn apart by an angry manticore. Shakily she got onto her hooves and approached the dark grey mare, a small flame of hope flickering within her.

“Hurricane...why-” Pansy was cut off by a pair of glaring blue eyes staring into her.

“You’re indecent, Private. You know the rules about wearing armor.” In that single moment, the small flame of hope was snuffed out by Hurricane’s cold words.

Tears filled Pansy’s eyes, pouring down her face. Dropping to the floor she sobbed silently, shivering and hugging herself for comfort.

Hurricane watched sobbing mare in horror, a heavy weight dropping in her chest. Clenching her teeth, she turned away from the crying green mare, trying to pretend that this wasn’t happening. Replacing the final piece of armor to her body, she gently pushed Pansy’s armor next to her in a neat pile before leaving the room.

*****

Rainbow Dash landed on the ground with a dull thud, wincing slightly at the pain in her stomach. "Okay, note to self... Going up is easier then going down."

"Aw...Poor Dashie." Pinkie frowned, landing next to Dash.

Dash winced, and looked at the pink mare. "I'm not even going to ask how you got down..."

"With a hop, skip, and a jump!" Pinkie smiled, bouncing in place. "Everypony knows that, silly!"

"...... Everypony but me, apparently. Okay, follow me," Dash sighed, turning towards the military base building. "I might as well show you around, since this is your new home and all."

"Really?!" Pinkie’s eyes grew wide and sparkled in excitement.

"Duh..." Dash grinned, leaning forward to plant a kiss on the hyper mare’s cheek. She glanced up as a group of weather pony fumbled with their clouds, all staring at her with dumbstruck eyes. "Er..... C'mon let's get inside."

"Okie dokie lokie!" Pinkie chirped, bouncing after Rainbow Dash as she lead her into the building.

Dash grinned at the pink mare’s antics, leading her through the maze of a building. "If you ever need me, usually asking Falling Star in the front desk is the way to go..." Dash muttered, nodding to a pale blue pegasus sitting behind a desk half asleep. "Well, when she isn't asleep, I mean."

"These ponies could seriously do with a party, Dashie. It's so boring in here." Pinkie muttered, glancing around at the pale greys and whites of the walls.

"Yeah, it's suppo-" Dash began before running into something solid.

"Watch i- Oh, Lieutenant General! This saves me the trouble..."

Both the mares looked up to see Hurricane before them, ruffling her wings uncomfortably. Rainbow Dash blinked a few times, noticing how her Commanders helmet looked slightly off, and how the grey mare looked... Distracted.

"Hurricane, is something up?" Dash asked, glancing suspiciously at her.

"Why would you say that?! Everything is fine! I need to speak to you!" Hurricane snapped defensively, glaring at the cyan Pegasus.

Shocked by the outburst, Dash muttered out a soft apology."Oh, well sorry...."

"Look, we need to discuss the issue with the clouds, and-" Hurricane began, her demeanor rapidly changing to a more serious, business like tone.

"Yeah yeah, I know. Pinkie and I were on our way to send Derpy to the other leaders to request a meeting, anyway." Dash interrupted, waving one of her forelegs in dismissal. "Before I go do that, are you even up for a meeting with the leaders? I mean, after the last few weeks and Pansy telling us about how you were really stressed and all."

Hurricane visibly tensed after hearing Pansy’s name. “O-of course I’m up to it! Anything that will help this tribe I will be ready for.”

Raising an eyebrow at Hurricane’s odd behavior, Dash shrugged. “Whatever you say, Hurricane.”

*****

Dash sat in the rafters of the earth pony meeting hall with several military pegasi yelling angrily behind her. Below, Commander Hurricane argued loudly with Chancellor Pudding-Head and Princess Platinum. Instead of joining in with the yelling of everypony in the room, Dash found herself distracted by a distraught, mint green mare.

“Pansy, are you alright? You've been moping around for the past few days.” Dash nearly shouted her question, attempting to be heard over the crowd of angry ponies.

Pansy, whom had been staring intently at Commander Hurricane, tore her eyes away from her and looked calmly at Rainbow Dash.

“I’m fine, Lieutenant General...” She grinned weakly, hoping to sate the cyan pony’s curiosity.

Sighing, Dash nodded. This wasn’t the time or place to be trying to help out other ponies anyway. She nudged Pansy in a friendly manor before returning her attention to the heated argument below.

“If there is anything wrong, you can talk to me.”

A genuine smile slowly formed on Pansy’s face, “Thank you, Rainbow Dash.”

Hurricane felt on edge during the entire debate. She could feel a set of purple eyes burning into the back of her skull. Her tension easily rubbed off on the other two leaders, quickly degenerating what was supposed to be a conversation about what was going wrong into a big blame game.

Several times Hurricane nearly started a physical fight. Something was holding her back, controlling her fiery temper. Maybe it was because an all out war would be devastating to her tribe, or maybe it was because she wanted to prove to all the other tribes how she was the better leader. Or... maybe it was a small, mint green pegasus.

*****

"What a load of horseapples THAT did....." Dash muttered in annoyance as she trotted into Fluttershy’s home.

"Huh?" Pinkie asked, poking her head from behind a door and looking curiously at Rainbow Dash. The two had been staying with the yellow medic while their home was being built.

"Oh! Wait! You're both back! How'd the meeting go? Are you hungry? I made chili!" Pinkie bounced excitedly toward Dash, almost tackling her in a tight embrace when she remembered her wounds. Instead, she gently hugged her and nuzzled her neck.

"The meeting went down the drains REALLY fast...." Dash muttered, watching Fluttershy rush off to feed her animals. "The earth ponies can't grow anymore food ‘cause of the clouds and are blaming the pegasi for it and the unicorns for possibly sabotaging the clouds, while the unicorns are blaming the pegasi for the clouds and the earth ponies for being lazy.” Dash rolled her eyes, “Meanwhile, the pegasi are complaining and blaming the unicorns for the clouds and the earth ponies for hogging food....."

"Oooohhhhhh." Pinkie listened eyes widening in interest.

"Hurricane almost started twelve hoof to-hoof fights," Dash sighed, trotting into the kitchen. "Princess Platinum put her crown on upside down, and once again no pony understood whatever Chancellor Pudding-Head was saying."

"I-It was such a miracle nopony got hurt...." Fluttershy stated, walking in the room. "Even MORE a miracle that.... Hurricane DIDN’T start a fight....."

"Does Hurricane always start fights?" Pinkie chirped, tilting her head to the side as she dished the chili into bowls. She pushed each bowl to her friends, sitting down before her own bowl and began gulping it down noisily.

Dash snickered, “Pinkie, it’s weird when Hurricane doesn’t start a fight. Though usually with other tribes she ends up doing crazy little mind games, like the time she got that earth pony kicked out--”

Pinkie looked up at Dash with big sad, cyan eyes.

“N-nevermind...” Dash muttered quietly, guilt filling her. “....Sorry, Pinkie Pie...”

Pinkie smiled softly, “It’s ok, Dashie.”

*****

Hurricane sat in her newly repaired office, her head resting on her new desk; this time made of metal. Hurricane’s head was swimming with frustration, not just at the failed meeting, but at the feelings that were tormenting her.

Sighing, she looked up at the painting of Blizzard sadly, “I messed up... I... I guess I’m... scared... to love another pony....”

Tears of sorrow and frustration pooled in her eyes, but Hurricane refused to allow them to fall. “I guess... I don’t want to go through losing somepony I love again...”

Memories of Blizzard falling in battle filled her mind. How she was immediately forced into becoming the new leader, way before she was ready. How she had to learn to cope, how she learned to do everything...

All on her own.

A single tear splashed on the desk.

*****

Finally, the day had come.

Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash all stood outside Fluttershy's home, braving the wind and snow the weird clouds had made. Hard determination was set on Dash's face, her wings carefully spread.

"Are... You sure you don't want to wait for a nicer day?" Fluttershy whimpered, gently pulling and prodding at Dash's wings to make sue they were fully healed.

"'Shy, I'm going crazy on the ground. The only good thing about it right now is Pinkie. I am NOT delaying my first real flight in ages because of some freak storm." Rainbow Dash snorted, shaking her head out quickly. "I'm ready to do this."

"Just be careful Dashie...." Pinkie begged, worry thickly accenting her voice. "Don't get hurt....."

Rainbow Dash flashed the pink mare a winning grin,"Don't worry, Pinks. I won't let a blizzard take me out again. Besides, it's just a quick flight around 'Shy's yard, then I'll be back at your side."

"..... Okay....." Pinkie’s concerned expression never left her face, but she seemed to relax just a little bit at Dash’s confident words.

“Rainbow...” Dash nearly tumbled over, her initial boost upward suddenly halted by Fluttershy’s worried voice.

Sighing heavily, Dash turned to Fluttershy, “What is it?”

“Sorry...” Fluttershy muttered quietly shrinking into herself a little before continuing, “Your stomach wounds aren’t healed yet...so please be very careful.”

Giving a sharp nod, Dash launched herself in the sky. Exhilaration raced through her as she took flight. Several loops, spins, dives, and barrel rolls later, Dash landed in front of a nearly catatonic Fluttershy and an awestruck Pinkie Pie.

Fluttershy rushed forward, her stare set firmly in place making Dash shrink back a little.

“ARE you CRAZY?! You could have gotten HURT! You could have TORN OPEN your WOUND!” Fluttershy’s chest heaved with heavy breaths as she calmed down. Finally relaxing since Dash was no longer in immediate danger, she hugged Dash. “I’m sorry...I was worried.”

Smiling softly, Dash returned the embrace. “It’s alright, Shy.”

“That was SO AWESOME, Dashie!” Pinkie nearly tore the cyan pegasus from Fluttershy’s embrace by her neck and hugged her tightly to her chest. “When you get all better I hope you can show me all your super amazing tricks!”

Fluttershy giggled at the dramatic display of affection the pink mare was pouring out. "Careful, Pinkie Pie...."

"Seriously I'm FINE, 'Shy!" Rainbow Dash snorted, rolling her eyes.

"Oh, I know...." Fluttershy smiled, taking a few steps away from the two. "I'm just worried about your ego."

"Hey!" Dash snorted indignantly.

*****
Hurricane awoke several hours later, slumped heavily on her desk. She sat up, rubbing her eyes, as she looked around the darkened office. Her face felt wet, she noted, recalling how, despite her best efforts, she had ended up crying for an hour or so.

"This is such a mess...." She muttered, quickly glancing around the room. "I'm such a mess...."

She got up, stumbling her way towards the door. "I should just go home and let Rainbow Dash take over for the day....."

Opening the door, Hurricane found herself face to face with the last pony she wanted to see. Pansy stared at her, insecurity radiating from her as she struggled to maintain eye contact with the dark grey mare.

"Is there something you need, Private." Hurricane spoke in a clipped tone. Her eyes hardened into a glare as she waited for the meek pegasus to respond.

"Hurricane..." The grey mare’s resolve nearly crumbled from the desperation that oozed from Pansy's voice. "Why are you acting like this?"

"Acting like what, Private?" Hurricane winced as her voice wavered.

Pansy's eyes narrowed. "You know exactly what I'm talking about, Commander."

Pansy stalked toward Hurricane, her desperation replaced with hurt anger. Hurricane found herself unconsciously moving backward, in a futile attempt to escape the green pegasus.

"You told me you cared about me...you have a really funny way of showing a pony how much you care, Commander." Pansy's eyes flashed dangerously.

Hurricane cursed under her breath as her rump hit the far wall of her office. "I-I care about everypony in the tribe."

Pansy snorted, rearing back on her hind-legs, wings flared aggressively. “Yeah, except you don’t have sex with everypony else in the tribe now do you?”

Hurricane found herself pinned to the wall by the smaller mare. It wasn’t as if Pansy was stronger than her...it was just...Hurricane didn’t want to hurt her. That, and the look in Pansy’s flaming purple eyes did a marvelous job at freezing her in place.

“....Uh...” Hurricane’s mind went blank as Pansy leaned in close, her hot breath blowing against her muzzle.

Pansy visibly shook with heartache, her eyes wavering between anger and sorrow. It took all of her willpower to not collapse into Hurricane’s chest and cling tightly to her.

“...Hurricane.....please...”

A blur of grey flew through the open door and smashed into the far wall, startling the two pegasi. Derpy Hooves popped up, holding an important letter in her mouth. Spitting it onto the desk she beamed brightly.

“I brought you a letter!” Derpy seemed oblivious to the tension that had built in the room, her goofy grin never leaving her face.

“Airman Derpy Hooves!” Hurricane practically shouted the other mare’s name in pure joy, happy to have a way to escape the situation she was in.

Wriggling her way out from being pinned to the wall, Hurricane rushed over to the wall-eyed mare and slung her foreleg around her, good-naturedly. “Your services are always outstanding! You will definitely get extra muffins in appreciation for all your hard work, as well as a pay increase! How I never saw such a great job you did before is beyond me!"

Pansy glowered at the two grey pegasi. “Airman Derpy...would it be alright if you came back later? Commander Hurricane and I were having an IMPORTANT discussion.”

Glancing at Pansy nervously, Hurricane ignored the green mare’s words. “Well I got some important stuff to do...somewhere else...so if you need anything else Derpy, you may talk to Lieutenant General Dash or Private Pansy.”

Snatching up the letter, Hurricane zoomed out of the office so fast it would have made Rainbow Dash proud.
*****

"And this is where I usually am!" Dash exclaimed, pushing a door open.

Pinkie’s eyes widened in awe as she stepped into the office. "Wow, Dashie! It's so bright!"

Dash followed her, glancing around at the colours she used to decorate. Mostly blues and oranges splashed on the walls, some forming lightning bolts shooting out from grey fluffy clouds. "Yeah. I mean, if this was the one place I was in more than my home and out training, I wanted it to look somewhat nice."

"Oh! There's some pink!" Pinkie exclaimed, rushing up to a randomly placed pink balloon. "It's.... Why is it here?"

"I.... Put that there after 'Shy and I came back the first time...." Dash slowly admitted, walking up to stand beside Pinkie. "I really missed you....."

Pinkie stared at the balloon in silence, slowly turning to smile at Rainbow Dash. "That's so sweet of you, Dashie...."

"Yeah well, it's nothing compared to your snow sculptures....." Dash shrugged nonchalantly.

Pinkie smiled, bouncing around the room. "But it's so blue and orange! What if we added some MORE pink, and maybe purple, oh and DEFINITELY green and yellow! Oh let's not forget red...! GASP! We could throw up some streamers and confetti and bean bag chairs and make it a party away from a party!"

"Let's not and say we did..." Dash chuckled, watching the pink mare run around the room, looking at various things. "’Sides, when I become leader I'll have to take over Hurricane's office. Not much point, really.... We could save it for when our home’s finished and you can go wild decorating...?"

"EVEN BETTER!" Pinkie beamed.
*****

Hurricane skidded to a halt, looking at her surroundings, her heart racing. That was close, she decided, sitting down with a deep sigh. She glanced up at the sign she sat before, biting her lower lip.

"The Cemetery...." She quietly muttered, getting up again.

She walked under the sign, glancing around at the tombstones before her. Even if she hadn't been here since she began training Rainbow Dash years before, she knew the path to Blizzard’s grave by heart.

She came to a halt before the stone, feeling her heart clench up.

"Blizzard..." She whispered, sitting down in front of the tombstone as close as she could. "Blizzard I'm so lost...."

She pulled off her helmet, letting her yellow mane fall into her eyes. She leaned forward, resting her head against the cold stone, closing her eyes before any tears could form again.

"What do I do.....?"
*****

Pansy dragged herself slowly out of Hurricane’s office, her head hanging in despair. She had somehow gotten Derpy to stop asking her about what was going on. Thank goodness for muffins...

Pansy halted at the sound of soft giggling. Turning curiously toward the noise, she trotted quietly up to Lieutenant General Dash’s office door and peered inside. She spotted Pinkie and Dash locked in a passionate and loving kiss, hooves holding each other tightly.

Shooting away from the door embarrassed, Pansy felt her heart clench painfully.

“Is...there something wrong with me?” Pansy quietly whispered.

Thoughts of Hurricane being so desperate to get away from her tore at her heart. She unconsciously wrapped her tail around herself in comfort, hoping to drive these lonely feelings away.

Looking up at Rainbow Dash’s office door, she sighed sadly. “Why can’t we be like that...’
*****

After several moments at Blizzard’s grave, Hurricane finally opened up the letter Derpy had rushed to her office. As she read it, it became harder and harder for her to restrain herself from smashing in one of the headstones in rage.

Princess Platinum had demanded that the pegasi tribe fix the weather. Otherwise they would take extreme measures and take their food; which Platinum claimed to be rightfully theirs. Hurricane was just about ready to fly all the way to the unicorn tribe and pay a special visit to Princess Platinum herself, when an idea struck her.

Why do we even have to stay here anyway? The land was becoming more and more harsh and the upper cloud levels of the pegasi tribe have become tainted with magic, leaving several pegasi homeless and struggling to find some ground shelter. Her tribe was starving and losing hope with each day that passed.

A determined grin formed on Hurricane’s face. She was going to find her tribe a new place to live, no matter what it took.
*****

"You want to WHAT?!" Hurricane rolled her eyes as Rainbow Dash stood in her office, eyes wide and mouth dropped to the ground.

It had been several days since Hurricane had received the letter from Princess Platinum. It had taken the Commander a few more days, most of which spent finding hiding places to avoid Pansy, for her to reach her decision.

"You heard me, Lieutenant General. Move the tribe. The clouds are ruined, all tainted with some mysterious magic. Besides, you said yourself the rabid manticores were increasing day by day at an unnatural rate." Hurricane spoke with finality in her voice.

Rainbow Dash shook her head free of her confusions. "Yeah, but moving an entire TRIBE, Hurricane?! It's impossible! There's way too many new foals being born, and not enough-"

"I've made up my mind!" Hurricane snapped, glaring at the cyan Pegasus. "Go inform everypony of this decision!"

"Hurricane, what's WITH you lately?! Sheesh, you've been in such a crabby mood!" Dash muttered, ruffling her wings in preparation of taking off. "You and Pansy have been acting weird since I returned..."

Hurricane visibly tenses at the green mare’s name. Dash frowned, glaring suspiciously at her Commander. "What did you do?"

"Nothing." Hurricane snorted, looking everywhere except the cyan mare staring at her accusingly.

"....... Liar." Rainbow Dash sighed, shaking her head. "Hurricane, you know there's going to be zero happiness about this, right?" Dash frowned, recalling how Pinkie had just started decorating their new home. "I'm pretty sure this can all get sorted if we just-"

"Why are you not informing the tribe?!" Hurricane growled, glaring at Dash. "Or are you trying to tell me you would openly help the Unicorns take our food supply that feeds the tribe?!"

"No- Ugh! Fine I'm going, I'm going....." Dash grumbled, turning and stalking to the closed door of the office. "Don't blame me if there's riots....."

Ripping the door open, Dash was startled to find Pansy on the other side. “Pansy?”

“I’m afraid the Lieutenant General is right....Nopony would be happy about this news, especially since we wouldn’t know where we are going. We should send out a small search party of two ponies to find someplace better first before we make such hasty decisions, Commander.” Pansy’s tone was harsh and bitter, making Hurricane’s fur stand on end.

“You know she’s right, Hurricane.” Dash began ever oblivious to the thick tension that had developed in the room, “We should send out some pegasi to search for someplace better. This way nopony will feel as if they are being led on some crazy wild goose chase!”

Hurricane fidgeted, avoiding the piercing gaze of the green pegasus, “I suppose you are right.... Wait, Private why were you listening in on this conversation?!"

Pansy’s ears twitched in annoyance, “It seems to be the only way I can get information about things I’m supposed to know about, Commander.” A scalding glare shot from Pansy’s eyes, making Hurricane unconsciously shrink slightly away from the gaze.

An idea suddenly popped into Hurricane’s head. “I could go out and search for new land. This is my idea after all, everypony would be much happier if I do it.”

Dash grinned at Hurricane. “That’s a great idea, Hurricane! Everypony WOULD be much happier if you did that, and they would be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more willing to follow you to the new land! Great. Conflict averted, we can all go ho- wait." The cyan pony rubbed her hoof against her chin in thought, “who would we send to go with you?”

Pansy stepped forward, her gaze never leaving Hurricane, “I will go with her.”

Hurricane froze, ”N-no way, Private. Everypony else needs you here!”

Before Pansy could retort, Dash responded with a grin, “We can do without Pansy. Fluttershy is back at the head of the medical team, and all of her other duties can easily be taken care of by several other ponies.”

A smug grin formed on Pansy’s face.

“Besides, what if you get hurt? You'd need an experienced medic with you.” Dash finished, a proud smirk on her face. "See aren't I a genius?"

Hurricane stared back at Pansy like a deer caught in headlights. “A-are you sure there is nopony else?”

Pansy’s eyes narrowed, “You already know the answer to that, Commander.”

Sighing in resignation, Hurricane unceremoniously dropped her head onto her desk. “...Fine....”

*****

"And thus Commander Hurricane will be finding a new place for the tribe to live!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, gesturing to the grey mare. Hurricane glared at Dash.

"Indeed. Give me five days. At which point I want all of you packed and ready to leave." Hurricane grumbled, completely ignoring the minty green mare at her left side. "Have I made myself clear?"

A chorus of "Yes Commander" echoed around her. Hurricane nodded, and turned to Rainbow Dash. "The tribe is yours for five days. Make sure everypony is ready to leave upon my return."

"Seriously?! That's a LOT of work..." Dash groaned.

"Any free time you have may be spent with Pinkie Pie." Hurricane spoke with a slight smirk.

"YOU GOT IT!" Came Rainbow Dash's enthusiastic response. The cyan mare saluted her Commander before bolting off to get the tribe organized. Hurricane turned towards Pansy, dread curling up in her stomach.

"A-.... Are you ready to set out, Private?" Hurricane shifted uncomfortably under Pansy’s gaze.

“I am ready for more than that, Commander.” The scathing look that followed, made Hurricane swallow thickly.

Hurricane nodded quickly. Rushing away to prepare for the long journey and to escape the penetrating stare from Pansy.

“Dash is going to pay for this.”
