It was still night, about midnight. We had only a little amount of time to get the elements, release him without making too much noise, and take him back to my house to get Discord settled. We trotted as fast as we could without causing an orchestra of hoofs hitting the ground. "Come on girls! We only have a half a night left! We need to MOVE, MOVE, MOVE!" I whisper-yelled once again. S flew ahead, assuming she knew where to go to find the Harmony Elements. Cyclone and I looked at each other and flew after her, quiet wings.
"Selene! Where are thou going?" Cyclone questioned, using Luna's royal speech. "Follow me! I know where they are, and RJ can use her powers to open the door! Its sealed with only magic Celestia has, but we once found the spell and learned it," S stated as she looked back at us. I had a very scared look on my face. "Um, S? Um, I, um, forgot the spell." As a small fake smile cam across my face. "You, W-WHAT!?" S yelled as she quickly came to a stop, and we ran into her and crashed. "I'm sorry! I just thought we would never need it so I never used it and forgot about it!" Well, I had just screwed up so bad. "I guess we have to take a couple more nights to: 1) find the spell, 2) learn it, 3) get the elements without getting caught, 4) release Discord (someway) and 5) get him settled." Cyclone groaned in agony as she collapsed on the ground. "But we have to take the least amount of time! He is waiting, and I Pinkie Promised him that I would be back with the elements!" I almost broke into tears; I would never, EVER break a pinkie promise, especially with Discord. "Well then what are we waiting for then!? Lets go!" S said as she zoomed off, leaving Cyclone and I behind. Then we tried catching up to her.
There it was. The giant doors to Canterlot Castle. I gulped and it felt like I had a lump in my throat, but I had mostly courage, for I knew I would always do anything for that draconequus. "Soooooooo. What are we waiting for? Hearts Warming eve? Lets hurry up and get to Starswirls wing! I pulled my hoodie over, making sure I could still see in the dark. I motioned S and Cyclone to follow. We stayed in the shadows, knowing that there are guards patrolling all over the castle. Luna and Celestia were probably fast asleep in their rooms. I kept getting sweat down my forehead. I had just kept on telling myself; "don't give up, you would never break a pinkie promise. You would never give up on Discord." I paced myself so I wouldn't get overwhelmed. Cyclone and S looked at me and nodded. We split up. I would go west, S would go east, and Cyclone would go north.
I was slowly walking, trying as hard as I could not to make any noise. At all. I had spotted a guard and stopped. In complete silence, I waited for him to pass by. About a minute later, he had checked his watch and left out of the doors. I knew what time it was.
It was becoming morning.
