“It has been very interesting,” he neighed. “I liked it when Penny waved her arms about and did a little dance.”

“That was when she got the top grade for best-turned-out pony,” she answered Comet. “The instructor said Penny’s tack was practically glowing and she needed sunglasses to look at it!”

Comet swished his tail. “It was kind of you to help her with her tack. I like Penny. She seems like a nice girl.”

“Yeah, she is. I wish I was as funny and confident as she is. Nothing fazes her.” Not like me, she thought, feeling another pang of guilt at having ridden off and left Penny standing there. “Anyway, let’s go looking for Destiny!” Lindsey said, changing the subject. She felt better at the thought of spending some time helping Comet at last.

Comet tossed his head and pawed at the ground with one front hoof. As he leaped forward, Lindsey urged on Allsorts. The little black-and-white pony snorted and quickened his pace.

The ponies galloped along side by side, Comet matching his longer stride to Allsorts’s, and Lindsey felt happiness glow through her as they sped along. Sunshine filtered down through the trees, casting spots of golden light onto them.

They wove along the bridle paths, now and then passing other ponies and riders who waved and smiled. Slowing to a walk, Comet’s keen eyes continually searched for signs of his lost twin.

At one point during their ride, they spotted a donkey and three ponies in a small paddock beside a cottage. Comet trotted up to them excitedly, his ears pricking. But none of the ponies was Destiny.

As Lindsey reached Comet she saw that his violet eyes had lost a little of their glow and his head was drooping slightly with disappointment. He must be missing Destiny badly. Her heart moved with sympathy for her friend.

“We’ll find her, don’t worry,” she reassured him. “This camp is huge. There’re tons of places where Destiny could be hiding. She might even have come past here recently.”
