"Well...how about we have a picnic?" asked Twilight.
''Sounds good to me.'' Running Gear said.
''Y-yeah. Agreed.'' Moth said.
"Ok, lets do it," said Twilight. "We'll all bring something to eat and meet in the park at six, ok?"
Aponi nodded. "Um...Ponies are vegetarians, right? So are we, except for when we eat love..."
''Fine by me. It's... 29 minutes and 48 seconds past 5, so we better hurry.'' Running Gear said.
''Well, then we shouldn't have much problems bringing something suitable for you and your sister.'' Applejack said in reply to Aponi.
''... If you're vegetarians, then why do you have fangs?'' Celestia asked.
"..." Aponi assumed her true form and got an apple, then drove her fangs into it, reducing it to a dried up peel. Then turned back to her disguise.
''Ah. Nevermind.'' Celestia said. ''I was just wondering.''
''So, anyway, let's all get to it. It's 30 minutes and 44 seconds past 5, so we'd better hurry.'' Running Gear said. Pinkie, meanwhile, had burst into a giggling fit at Running Gear constantly mentioning what the time was to the second.
Aponi nodded as everyone went their separate ways. She then sniffed the air and covered her nose. "Sis, do you smell something?"
A bat hiding in the rafters flew out the window and landed on Adrian's shoulder, returning to it's tattoo state before he teleported away.
''What the hay?!'' Running Gear shrieked, seeming genuinely frightened.
''What was that?'' Moth said, sounding even more startled than Running Gear.
"What is it?!" asked Aponi, jumping in front of her sister protectively.
"Did... Did you see that?!" Moth said, frightened.
"No, I smelled something kind of bad, but I didn't see anything..." said Aponi, looking around.
''There was... There was...'' Moth said.
''A really scary pony? Yup.'' Running Gear said, wide-eyed.
"Well...no one is there now..." said Twilight, watching.
"Sis, did you smell it too?" asked Aponi. "I couldn't tell if it was an emotion or just a bad smell, but if it was an emotion, I didn't like it one bit."
''I... I'm sure it was an emotion...'' Moth said.
''Twilight, that bat... Didn't it remind you of something?'' Running Gear said.
"I...I don't know..." said Twilight. "I think that stallion had a tattoo like that, but why would he be here?"
