As they all mounted, Zoe whispered to her winged friend, "to Fluttermont, Kyra. Bring the others with you to."

After that, Kyra reared and let out a cry to the rest of the pegasi. She spread her sky-size wings while standing on her hind legs, and took to the air.

While the others flew calmly, Zoe played around. Doing flips and barrel rolls through the sky. Her hair danced around behind her, and it quite literally caught on fire. Not that it bothered her or anyone else. It made her look more... Zoe-like. A brave, firey girl to be taken seriously. Eventually, when she leveled out for a second so that her and Kyra could catch their breath, Ryder pulled up and flipped in the air.

"Nice trick," she said calmly her flames still dancing around in her hair.

I like this one... Kyra said suddenly in her head.

Me too, Zoe thought, but what do you like about that idiot?

You're one to talk you just met him!

So have you!

Me and Dire are practically sharing a brain.

Who's Dire? I though we were talking about Ryder...

Who's Ryder? I thought we were talking about the pegasus, Dire.

Zoe smacked her forehead and turned to Ryder. "Who dares disturb my fun?" She asked jokingly.

"I came to apologize again," Ryder said seriously, and Zoe's whole joking attitude faded and she just about melted, "I feel really bad, and you banishing me to my own pegasus doesn't help. Sorry, Dire. We're still pals."

"That's... really sweet," Zoe said slowly.
