Scene 11: The Hunt, Part 1- Let's Split Up, Gang!

-The Everfree Forest-

The seven ponies, along with a hidden Ruby, trotted towards the mount.

MT-"Well, here we are at the aptly-named Phoenix peak. There are three paths up the mount: a rocky path leading up, a densely forested area leading left, and a clearing leading right. Who's going where?"

GH-"I'd think it'd be best if Little Miss Impulsive over here and I go along the clearing. My legs are too weak to climb the rocky slopes and my eyes aren't the greatest. The clear sky's moonlight should suffice."

MT-"Okay, that's one team down. Who's going through the forest?"

SB-"I guess that will be our team. We tried rock climbing once and it didn't go well, to say the least."

MT-"So I guess Fluttershy and I are going up the rocky cliffs. Is everypony okay with that?"

They all nodded.

MT-"Just watch out. This place can cause some weird things to happen in some ponies. Don't stray from your goal."

They all nodded and went their separate ways.
