*~Somethings wrong in ponytown~*

High in the sky

Up in the clouds, Milan and Cookie soared into Cloudsdale, their wings cutting through the crisp, cloud-filled air. The usually serene and tranquil city had been transformed into a bustling hub of activity, as the pegasi who normally lived on the ground below had now taken refuge within its fluffy, floating confines.

The streets were alive with the sound of excited chatter and the laughter of children, who darted playfully between the cloud buildings. Despite the cheerful atmosphere, however, there was an undeniable tension that hung in the air, a sense of unease that permeated the usually carefree environment.

As Milan and Cookie landed, they were immediately approached by a pair of authoritative-looking pegasi, their wings folded neatly at their sides.

"You two must be the ones we've heard reports about," said the older of the two, his voice grave. "What can you tell us about the situation down in Ponytown?"

Milan and Cookie exchanged a weighted glance, their expressions somber. "The situation is... difficult," Milan replied, his voice low and measured. "A great evil has descended upon Ponytown, and the guards are doing their best to protect the evacuated ponies."

The two Cloudsdale leaders nodded solemnly, their brows furrowed with concern. "We've already begun making preparations to accommodate the influx of refugees," the younger pegasus said, her voice filled with a sense of purpose. "But we need to know more about the threat they're facing."

Cookie stepped forward, her wings folding gently at her sides. "From what we understand, a powerful monster has appeared in Ponytown, and the princess has ordered the evacuation of all citizens to Cloudsdale," she explained, her tone measured and calm. "The guards are doing their best to contain the situation, but the danger is very real."

The Cloudsdale leaders exchanged a worried look, their wings rustling anxiously. "We'll need to convene an emergency council meeting right away," the older pegasus said, his voice filled with a sense of urgency. "The safety of our fellow pegasi is our top priority."

Milan and Cookie nodded in understanding, their expressions solemn. They knew they were not the ones in charge, but they were determined to do whatever they could to assist the Cloudsdale leadership in ensuring the well-being of all those who had sought refuge within the city's cloud-built walls.

With a deep breath, the two leaders turned and swiftly made their way towards the central plaza.
