Sunny and I had kept Queen Haven occupied by tell her about an idea Sunny had to help the Earth ponies control their new magic "And so, what I was thinking is that a community garden could be just what Maretime Bay needs to start bring Earth ponies together Like a designated place to practice magic" said Sunny "A magical garden sounds wonderful, dear. Though I can't say I know much about gardening myself. That's what the gardeners are for!" said Queen Haven giving one of her fake laughs we cringed "You're all set, Majesty. Portrait Day perfection" said Rocky Riff finishing Queen Havens Hair "Oh, I'm so excited! Aren't you, girls?" Queen Haven turned around to see Zipp and Pipp gone "Sunny, where did my girls go?" she asked "Oh! They just went... back... to the Brighthouse! They forgot their... tiaras?" lied Sunny likely she bought it "Well, no point waiting here. We should just meet them at the Brighthouse. I haven't had a chance to check out the new place yet" said Queen Haven walking to the door but Sunny blocked her way "You should visit! Just... not now. The Brighthouse is a total mess, and I'd hate for you to see it in that state" said Sunny "Oh, don't worry. I may be a queen, but I can handle a little mess. I'm a mom" said Queen Haven with a wink I then tried my luck "Queen Haven! A little birdie named Pipp told me you have an incredible singing voice, and it'd be such a shame if I missed my chance to hear it for myself. Would you sing just one song with us before we go?" I asked "Well, I suppose one song never hurt anypony! Thunder! I call this one "Pony Love"! I remember not so long ago The feeling of the light As it kissed my cheek, my time to speak Came and went like night The crack of dawn, the curtain drawn The mountains I have climbed... Sunny and I climbed onto one of the chairs and gave out a sigh

Zipp took a look and some of the colour of therock face around the beach "These rocks are just like the ones from the photo.We must be close. Yes! See, Pipp?" see turned to see Pipp taking a picture "Whatdid I say about keeping our location a secret?!" said Zipp "What? I turned thegeotagging off. We're totally off the grid basically" said Pipp "Whatever.Let's just go find this Ocean Lily already" said Zipp getting annoyed "Flowermission – total fail" said Zipp her phone then chimed and she saw another pi ofthe ocean Lilly "Could this be? It is! Huh. Pipp! I have a lead!" said ZippPipp said Nothing once again Pipp was on her phone taking a picture "Ugh! Comeon! No social media!" said Zipp "But I put a filter on it so nopony will beable to tell where we are!" said Pipp "Your influencer stuff has been gettingin the way all day!" said Zipp getting angry "I thought the whole reason wewere searching for this flower was for Ponygram!" said Pipp not backing down "Andyou're ClipTrot?! And you're Feedbag?!" asked Zipp "Oh," Pipp let out a giggle"That last one was fake" she said "Ugh!I know! But you know what?! It was never about the flower! I just needed anexcuse to get out of Portrait Day, okay?!" said Zipp Pipp scoffed "What?!" shesaid "I have to admit, I did actually get into the search for a while there.But the truth is I don't care a salt lick about your Ponygram posts!" admittedZipp she then realized what she had said could of been too harsh "Wait. Ididn't mean" began Zipp but Pipp stopped her "Well, fine! If this Lily is sosilly to you, then why don't you just go home?!" she said "What?! I'm notgiving this up now! I came all the way out here!
