"Ah, shoot! I gotta go but I'll catch up with ya later!" Applejack says before galloping off into the distance in a hurry. Bishop waves his hoof at her while watching her. A smile arose on his face. Though he shouldn't depend on Applejack in terms of making new friends with other ponies in Ponyville, it was still worth while to check out most places while he could.

He looked down at his sketch book with the sketch of the Sugarcube Corner shop. To his eyes the sketch looks quite well and it appears he may have something to work with, after all! He's happy to say the least. He picked up the sketch book with his mouth then placed it into his satachel before he set off, continuing his little journey around Ponyville.

Bishop is trotting through a narrow path with houses surrounding him on each side. He looks up to the sky and notices there are no clouds in the sky except for one. He stops trotting and wonders. He felt something strange about there only being one cloud and that is all. He's used to seeing more clouds than just one so what the heck is going on?

Something flew from the sky! So fast! Actually it was fast that it left Bishop dizzy for a little while and with his glasses trying to make an attempt to focus, made his vision even worse. He felt like he was going to throw up. But once his eyes were focused he looks back up at the sky and notices a trail of rainbow colours.

"Woah.." Bishop says in agape. He has never seen such colours leaving a trail before and even more so that it seems like it was actually leaving a hard solid trail from whatever pony decided to go for a fly! He heard multiple light hearted giggles and voices behind him. He turned around and saw three fillies.

"Did you just see that?!" says Scootaloo. "Wait..see what?" says Applebloom, she's confused as her attention at the time is elsewhere. "THAT!" Scootaloo shouts and this time pointing her hoof toward the sky with the rainbow colours. Sweetie Belle nods her head in confirming what she is seeing. "I can see it too!" she says. "Hey, you girls. Where do ya think she's runnin' off to?!" Scootaloo began galloping in the direction of the rainbow colours with Sweetie Belle and Applebloom.
