The town was in panic mode. Coal Fire's newest assistant, Trixie Lulamoon, tried to calm everypony down until she was trampled by the ponies running around in fear. (Serves ya right Trixie.) The protective bubble of heat around the hospital imploded.
The only four not running around in panic were Hot Chocolate, Whipped Cream, Derpy, and Coal Fire. The mayor shot an "We will discuss this later" look at Cocoa and she stared at him with a sort of scared expression. The pegasi lifted Hot Cocoa to a nearby roof that was covered in snow.
"Don't worry," Cream said, "I'll be there to back you up when you need me. Maybe we can convince mom to be there too."
Cocoa stared at her sister with hopeful eyes, knowing "maybe" meant "she has to come".
Back on the street, Coal Fire and a battered looking Trixie had finally calmed the townsponies down. Cocoa could here her father saying something about a town meeting, and knew she would have to attend.
"We don't need to worry, the child is most likely trying to spread chaos through our peaceful town," he was saying, "But we need to determine the truth." The towns ponies whispered their agreement and some actually glared at Cocoa.
"Thats it, we're getting mom ASAP!"Cream said.
The trio arrived back at the mayor's home, Derpy wearing glasses to conceal her eyes, and knocked on a large oak door with a silver handle.
"Come in." a mare said, and Derpy Do, Hot Chocolate, and Whipped Cream walked in.
The room was small, but decorated with pictures, all but one containing the light blue unicorn sitting on the bed. She was reading a book titled The History of Equestria. She swept her long, straight brown hair out of her eyes and lookedat the one picture without her: a hoof-drawn map of Equestria.
The mare smiled as she removed Derpy's glasses.
Cocoa hopped on the bed and hugged her mother, who returned the gesture with a kiss on the forehead.
"Hello, you must be Derpy. Cocoa has told me so much about you," She said, "My name is Sun Charter." Sun Charter stood up and turned around so she showed Derpy her cutie mark, a pencil drawing three miniature suns.
Cream cleared her throat and said, "I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but mom, we need you to be at the town meeting tonight. Apparently Cocoa had a daydream of the princesses and they said that-"
"That somepony is sabotaging Ponyville's cocoa supply, so we have no way of keeping everypony, not me of course, from freezing to death. Personally, I'm only trying to save you, Derpy, and Cream, but that would make Princess Luna really mad at me." Cocoa interrupted.
Sun Charter sighed loudly. "I knew your father would-" she stopped herself and inhaled deeply, "I'll go." She shook her head. "The ponies in this town."
Derpy's glasses lifted back onto her face, once again covering her yellow eyes.
"To the meeting, I guess." Cocoa said.
