"Well Fizzy I guess our suspicions were correct. Hello girls. Why weren't we invited to this meeting? And out of Unicornia territory! Tsk tsk tsk!" Moonstone exclaimed gleefully.

"And who's this Starhopper?" Fizzy inquired, walking around Planethopper.

"Well who are you?" Planethopper asked back.

"You're probably just another Sparkle who doesn't care about rules and regulations," spat Sky Flier.

"Excuse me but what is that supposed to mean?" Starhopper yelled.

"Er, ah, Hopper, maybe it's time that you told them. All of them," Cocoa Berry spoke up nervously.

Uh oh.

"That's a perfectly good idea. Thankies for bringing it up Cocoa," Planethopper said. "Hoppy, should you do the honors, or should I?"

"No, I think. . . Pinwheel should. She has a good speaking voice. One that can be heard clearly," Starhopper answered.

"Me? Oh, all right. Starhopper has a good reason for not being here all the time. She's a full time mother, wife, sister, friend, and Queen. So is Planethopper, who you see now. They together reign Star Castle. But we plan to put a stop to that. We are the Unicorn Ambassadors. And we want freedom restored to all of Ponyland," Pinwheel dictated.

"I was chosen to lead these nine brave Ponies, in the struggle to turn separation into unity. SParkler came up with that," I said.

"Yeah. We anticipated what we would do, should this happen," SParky said.

All three of the gossip queens were stunned. I could perfectly understand why.

Fizzy slowly turned her head toward Pinwheel. "You are a traitor!" she shouted, lunging toward Pinwheel.

"Aaah!" she screamed, and she disappeared.

I looked around frantically at everyone. But they had disappeared too!

Your destination! a voice said in my mind. Go to Crystal Castle! Everyone's going to their destination!

Just as the gossip queens tried to capture me, I winked out.

Out to my old home.

Crystal Castle, here I come.
