‘No problem,’ Cinders said, shrugging off her satchel. ‘You’ve just reminded me I was supposed to get rid of this old thing for Mum.’

The wild ponies trotted on, but Stardust and Cloud hung back to wait for Cinders.

‘Why does the Baroness want you to throw her satchel in the quick-stick mud?’ Pippa asked, curious. ‘It doesn’t look that old.’

‘Mum’s even stricter than Mrs Steeplechase,’ said Cinders. ‘You do what she says without questioning her.’

Pippa stared at the satchel. Something was bothering her but she wasn’t sure what. Images of her previous adventures with Stardust flashed through her mind – the Night Mares, the mysterious hooded pony and all the nasty comments Divine had made each time they were successful in their search.

‘What’s inside?’ she asked suddenly.

‘I don’t know,’ said Cinders. ‘Like I said, you don’t question Mum.’

‘May I have a look?’

Cinders hesitated then passed the satchel to Pippa. ‘Why not? Mum didn’t tell me I couldn’t show anyone.’

The satchel was surprisingly heavy. Pippa felt all eyes watching her as she opened it up. As the flap fell back a flash of golden light blinded her. She blinked as she carefully opened the satchel wider.

‘One – no, two of the missing horseshoes,’ she exclaimed.

‘No!’ Cinders whinnied, the colour draining from her face.

‘Are you sure?’ Stardust and Cloud crowded closer.

‘I don’t understand.’ Cinders had tears in her eyes. ‘Mum doesn’t believe in the legend of the horseshoes so why would she take them?’
