This day in Equestria was as good as any day here in this peaceful land and as we close in on our setting of a crystal tree house, one could play a happy jingle over it. Now as we enter the establishment we see a light purple alicorn sitting on a throne that had the same mark on top as she did "Spike" she turned to the light purple dragon as he walked in.
"No Twilight, Celestia hasn't returned your letter yet" he spoke, getting annoyed that Twilight was insistent on getting a response from her old mentor.
Then a flash of rainbow, but mostly light blue, came through, bringing a large gust of wind with it "hey Twilight, are you doing anything interesting".
"That depend, do you like waiting around for letters all day" Spike asked in a sarcastic tone.
"Aw man, there is nothing to do today, everyone else is busy and I can't find anything to do" she spoke, landing to sulk a bit.
Spike burped, blue flames coming out that quickly formed into an old looking parchment, which landed in front of Twilight "that's odd".
"What's so odd about it, Spike burps up letters all the time"?
Twilight lifted the rolled up paper, sealed with a strange wax marking. As she did that Spike explained "well the flames are usually green, plus this one kinda felt" he coughed "dusty".
The blue pegasus flew over to twilight to see the mystery scroll, and grabbed it when she saw the wax seal "hey"!
"Oh, my, gosh. I can't believe it! Does this mean he's real"?
"Rainbow Dash, WHO ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT" Twilight yelled, being left in the dark?!
"This wax symbol" she pointed to the symbol, which looked like the skeleton of a pegasus "is the symbol of the pegasus pirate captain Metalwing"!
"Who"?
"I guess it became more of a Pegasus story since it was so long ago. They were a group of pegasi that robbed Equestria blind, but mostly the pegasi towns. And the most interesting part is that they and everything they stole was never found. It took place hundreds of years ago so I thought it was just a legend" she rolled open the paper "and now we have the map to their treasure" she dashed in front of Twilight, blowing Twilight's dark purple mane back "can we go"?
"Rainbow Dash, we can't just rush off to some far corner of Equestria for a treasure hunt".
"Well actually" Spike spoke, now holding the map "it's nearby, and I still have our essentials packed in my back pack, so we could head out and probably be back by tonight".
"Alright, I'll meet you by the edge of town" and Rainbow Dash rushed off to get ready.
Spike turned to Twilight, who had a displeased look on her face "what" Twilight just sighed.
