Chapter 5: Setting Sail
By the time Shimmer Star and Fluttershy arrived at the docks, Twilight Sparkle was already packing gear on a boat and crossing of items on a list.
''Hey Twilight, are we ready to set off?'' Shimmer asked as he looked over the list of gear. Twilight checked off one more item before turning to him.
''Just about, Applejack and Pinky Pie dropped off some snacks, and Rarity gave us some rain gear, so I just need to pack those and we'll be ready.'' An older colt with blue hair, a white beard and a sailor's hat walked up to Twilight.
''Ships ready to sail on your word ma'am.'' He said, he looked at Shimmer as if he noticed something and Shimmer quickly looked away.
''Thank you Sea Swell, I think we're ready to go.'' Twilight looked at Shimmer and Fluttershy who both nodded. ''Okay, then, let's set sail.''
As they walked up the ramp, many ponies ran to the docks to see them off.
''It looks like everypony came to watch us go.'' Twilight waved and shouted until the ponies of Ponyville could be heard no more. When she returned below deck, Shimmer and Fluttershy had set up three cots.
''Well, I have a feeling we're getting close to Silver.'' Shimmer yawned and then fell asleep.
