Hiking After Sundown

The girls were busy making paper lanterns and decorating them. Pinkie Pie’s was covered in marshmallows.

Rarity laughed. “Um, Pinkie Pie, what are you doing?”

“Putting marshmallows in my lantern!” she answered with enthusiasm. “Then when we light them, mine’ll be beautiful and delicious!”

Rainbow Dash stared at her friend for a moment in concern. “You do realize that there’s more to camp than just eating lots of marshmallows, right?”

Twilight was off by herself, working at a different table. Spike padded over to her, concerned. He cocked his head. He whimpered a little. “Hey, why aren’t you with everyone else?” he asked.

A tear spilled out of Twilight’s eye. “Sunset said something at camp is causing the other girls to get new magic.” She lowered her voice to a whisper. “I think it’s Midnight Sparkle. She’s still a part of me, I can feel it. And I think her magic is infecting my friends.”

“What are we gonna do?” Spike wondered.

“I don’t know what I can do.” Twilight felt overwhelmed.

Gloriosa was walking from table to table—getting glue, offering compliments, lending a hand. “Okay, everyone,” she said at last. “It’s time to watch your lanterns fly.”

The campers headed down to the lake. Twilight’s friends called out to her to join them. Twilight walked reluctantly over to the girls. But she tried to keep far enough away so no magic would happen.

Timber Spruce appeared. “Hey, cool lantern,” he complimented her. “Mine’s my face.” He held it up. On one side he’d painted a silly face. Twilight smiled, but she was still distracted and upset.

“You okay?” asked Timber Spruce. “You don’t seem like yourself tonight.”

Twilight shrugged, but she didn’t offer any explanation.

Gloriosa was ready for the big lantern send-off. “Ready?” she called. “And go!”

All the campers let go of their lanterns and they floated up into the sky. All except for Pinkie Pie’s. Hers didn’t go anywhere. It was too heavy.

Pinkie Pie grinned. “Oh well, now I get to eat it!” She took a big bite. “Yep. Beautiful and delicious.”

Everyone laughed. That was Pinkie Pie’s great gift. She lifted everyone’s spirits. But not Twilight Sparkle’s. She was just too miserable.
