A/N: Ok, I decided just to put this up so you wouldn't feel like you're at a cliffhanger at the end of Chpt. 3., consider it a present. I only own my OCs.


"Gah!" I shouted as I bolted out of my sleep. I held my head in my hands. The events before the dimension hop flooded back to me. The feeling was almost as equivalent of a hangover. I took the time to observe where I was now. I saw multiple trees around me, large scary, looking trees. I looked up, the trees blocked most of the sunlight, but I could still tell it was day. I checked myself to see if I was hurt. Luckily, I hadn't broken anything; in fact I was perfectly ok.

I checked my gear to see if I lost anything during the battle. Revolver: check, hat: still here, concussion and smoke grenades: here and here, portal dimension device: here. I checked the PDD on where I was, it said:

Dimension: 177-984

My eyes widen when I saw that particular dimension number. "How's is it possible I'm here again?" I thought. "I'm in Equestria," I muttered. "Again"

You are probably thinking why I do not want to be here. The reason? Its personal and right now I just wanted to get out of here. Unfortunately, my luck appeared to have run out. When I tried opening a portal only an ERROR appeared rather than a portal. I had no idea why it did that, as all the other functions worked on the PDD. I came to conclude that the PDD's portal function was busted and I had no way to fix it on my own. I sighed and facepalmed.

"You really had to get captured, did you Wolfshire?" I said.

Since I knew where I was, dimension-wise that is, I figured I was in the Evergreen Forest, since it just felt eerie, and because I recognized all the trees as evergreens. The last time I was in Equestria I knew about the Evergreen Forest, but I had never ventured into it, so I was in blind territory. I walked about five steps before I facepalmed yet again. "I'm really losing it am I?" "Why did I start walking when I have rocket boots?" I clicked my heels and the rockets roared to life. I was able to above the tree level, and I took in the view above the thick grove of trees. "They weren't kidding when they said the Evergreen Forest was huge," I said. "No wonder why anyone, or anyPONY, could easily get lost in there."

I wondered if there were any towns that were near the Evergreen Forest. I decided to fly around the area until I saw something. As I flew, I wondered how the rest of the gang was going.

Back with the others

The main galley was in chaos. People were arguing with each other and it was pure chaos. Swift took control of the situation and blew a sharp whistle. The noise immediately quieted down and all attention turned to Swift.

"Ok, lets first not lose our marbles," said Swift. "Secondly, Silica are you sure that the rift was from Desperado?"

"Yes, it indeed was," replied Silica. "It similar to the reading that the PDD gives when it opens a portal."

"Well, we do know he ok, right?" questioned Wolfshire. "If he used the PDD, he should be fine, and he could just come back, with no problem."

"Wolfshire, there is only one problem with that, " said Solar. "If Desperado was going to come back he would have been back already, and not MIA."

"Which means one of two things could have happened," said Arachne. "Either Dez's PDD is broken, or he may be in trouble."

"I really hope it's the first one" Flare said quietly.

"According to the reading, the energy used to open the rift was unusually higher than normal for our PDD," Silica said. "So there is a high chance that Dez's PDD is busted."

"He can fix it right?" tapped out Shiv.

"Nope," replied Silica. "He can fix the most of the PDD on his own, but for the portal function, he needs his tools to do that, and he doesn't have them with him."

A cold silence hung over the room, "BUT, I have started to track where the rift leads to, but it's going to take some time for it to track Dez."

"We'll notify Doug and TT about the current situation," said Arachne. "You five should rest now, it was a quite a long day for you."

Everyone nodded and went their separate ways to their respective rooms, and left the statue, spider, and holograph in the main galley.

"Wherever you are Dez," said Silica as she stared at the many monitors. "Hope you're safe."
