Chapter One: The Renegade Flutters
It was a gorgeous day in The Realm of the My Little Pony. School had just let out, and the baby ponies were scattered about enjoying their new-found freedom. Hot Shot, a Big Brother Pony, was leading soccer practice with the boys - Baby Julio, Baby Spaniel, Baby Jazz, Baby Speedboat and Baby Galaxy.
Queen Moondancer and Vice Queen Glory were the only two children bottled up inside; the Law of the Dream indicated that the child carrying his or her parent's traits in the Royal Families took to the throne at age twelve. This was the young reagents' first year sporting the title "queen" and "vice-queen" instead of "baby."
Outside, the Summer and Windy Wing ponies were taking flying lessons from the older Flutter ponies. All of them, that is, except for Baby Flutter, who was purple with a turquoise mane and tail, and a blue butterfly symbol, and Baby Bumble, who was yellow with a pink mane and tail, with an orange and black bee symbol.
They were going through an obstinate phase, and were overly confident in their flying abilities. The two eight year olds had taken off, and soon had passed The Realm. Technically, they were not allow to even fly alone yet, and unless they were with their parent, they weren't allowed out of The Realm.
The two, however, were too excited to care about the first law, thinking that SURELY they wouldn't get caught. And in their excitement of flying unaccompanied for the first time, they didn't notice right away that they had not only passed The Realm's border, but Flutter Valley and the Sea Pony Lagoon as well!
Soon they were in supposedly uncharted territory. Not only this, but their stamina had not yet been built up, and their wings were finally beginning to give out. They made a hasty descent, and fell in a heap, panting.
"Where are we Flutter?" cried Baby Bumble.
"I don't know!" replied the distraught pony. "My wings can't carry me another hoof though. Perhaps we should just walk in the direction of Dream Valley until we can fly again."
"Sounds good to me Flutter," replied Baby Bumble.
The two headed north, in the direction of their home. Already they had been gone a couple of hours, and it was nearly lunch time. The two juveniles' stomachs began growling. Unfortunately, the two had failed to think ahead, and hadn't brought any food. Suddenly, they heard a soft crying coming from their right.
