I'm sorry I made a mistake on the first page of my story. The explanation about Medley and the "Timanfaya-Mountains" should actually come here with this chapter.

Ok, here it comes once more:

I don't really know if it's true that the gentle sound of a harp tinkled on the wind when Medley waved her tail and make drumming thunder on clouds with her hooves.

I remember that I read this on few pages about comics that it was on the "Backcard Stories" that she can do it.

And I thought it will be quite nice if I bring that into my fanfic :)

By the way, "Timanfaya" is a volcanic-mountainous range on the volcano-island Lanzarote, one of the Canary Islands (lies in the Atlantic Ocean only some 60 miles from the coast of Africa and ? miles from the Iberian Peninsula)

12. The search party

"Hello? That's quite nice that you get along with each other well - or not - but could you perhaps think again of Sundance and the dragon?" Firefly looked at them worried. "Uh, yeah. I'm sorry! Right! Sundance..." Megan said and blushed again a little.

"If you don't mind we would like to help you with the search for your friend. 'Cause I guess we weren't sending to this beautiful land without a reason..." Hank said. "Yeah! Like many times before..." Eric let out. "Maybe it leads us further to our world when we have rescued your friend." Hank continued, ignoring Eric. "Oh yeah! Of course! Many paths lead to Rome and the way home lies behind many corners, I see!!" Fizzy had to laugh about the comment. "There's nothing to laugh!" Eric snapped at her. But this gave her cause to laugh more about him. Eric turned around insulted.

"Well, what did you say how the dragon looked like?" Sheila asked. "He was big, red and had five heads..." Sweet Stuff explained. "A five-headed dragon??? Listen, guys, isn't that well-known to you as well?" Diana asked. "Yeah! It sounds like Tiamat!" Hank answered her. The other teenagers looked at him. "But what is Tiamat doing here? And how did she come here?" Presto thought. "Maybe she followed us through the portal?" "No, Sheila. I don't think so. Probably Tiamat has made an own portal." Hank replied.

"Tiamat? Did you say Tiamat?" They all turned around frightened. The Moochick stood behind them. "Of course, Tiamat! How could I forget her?" "So, you know the dragon then, don't you Mister Moochick?" North Star realized. "Yes. I knew that I already heard about her. There's also something written about her in any of my books. Wait a minute. No, that's not it and that also not. Oh yes, here is it: Tiamat. In former times Tiamat once had ruled here over Ponyland. She brought many fear and death under the people. She killed the animals from the farmers and those were forced to leave their possessions. That was Tiamat's objective. She would rule over a chaos land. Some day she wasn't seen here in Ponyland anymore und that's why the story about her fell into oblivion. But nobody knows where she remained instead..."

"Tiamat killed the animals of the humans and so they have to leave..." Medley repeated lost in thoughts. "What's the matter?" Gingerbread asked. "That was it, what I've seen in my vision. Tiamat has attacked the humans and killed their animals. So she banished the humans from their houses, as in the so ruin, in what we were..." "A vision? You had a vision of Tiamat? Interesting!" the Moochick said. "Oh right. I was so worried about Sundance that I forgot it, I'm sorry!" Firefly turned to Medley. "It's all right!" she answered and smiled at her friend.

"Why had only Medley these visions and not all of us? I mean we were all at or also in this ruin..." "That's a very good question, Twilight! I guess that only Medley could sense this vision, 'cause she seems to be the most sensitive and cautious among you. She also can make music like a harp if she waved her tail and drumming thunder on clouds with her hooves, can't she?" the Moochick explained. All turned to Medley. But she looked unsure back.

"Where do you know this dragon from?" North Star wanted to know from the kids after short silence. "Tiamat comes from the world from that we came to you. The Realm. Tiamat is gone there at that time. I really wonder why she came here again just now! We always took the view that she's neither good nor bad. Though, she's the deadly enemy of Venger, a really bad type. He wants to have our magical weapons." Hank explained. "Well, this Venger couldn't be in league with Tiamat, could he?" Sweet Stuff asked. "No!" Presto confirmed.

"But where should we search after her?" Sheila asked. "Well, possibly first of all we should try to trace here in Ponyland and then in your sphere..." Wind Whistler suggested. "Ok. But have you ever thought about that Ponyland is not at all so small?" Fizzy replied. "Hmmm. Mister Moochick, stands in the book nothing where Tiamat has stayed here in Ponyland?" "Oh. Here stands really something about it, Medley. Tiamat lived in the 'Timanfaya-Mountains' behind 'the Desert without Return'."

"Oh noo. Not a desert again!" Fizzy groaned. "If Tiamat has really taken Sundance there, we have to go there, too." North Star said. "Yeah. And that's right now!" Firefly said. "All right. Let's set of to the Timanfaya-Mountains." Megan said and swung on Firefly's back as she stood ready beside her.
