Daring Do: And The Divine Crown of the End

Diamond Spies on Caballeron

The scene switches to inside of Diamond-Chi's home: Diamond came home with a smile on her face; she couldn't believe that she met AK Yearling, aka Daring Do herself. She happily sighed, and sat down on the couch, grabbing her diary, which she had left on the couch. She used her magic to get a quill, dipping it into ink, before she opened her diary to the empty page, and started writing.

'Dear Diary, nothing has been going on during patrol today, as usual, and I thought this day wouldn't be any more interesting than it was, but today it really was more interesting! Rainbow took me to AK Yearling's Place, the author of Daring Do book series, and I didn't know til' now, but thanks to Rainbow Dash, I found out that AK Yearling was Daring Do herself! I was shocked and amazed at the same time, it's phenomenal. I mean, that's something I never knew about AK Yearling, it was awesome. When I started to find out that AK was actually Daring Do herself, it seriously made me think, that, maybe, just maybe, someday I can be in one of her adventures, and maybe end up on one of her books in the series. That, would be the best thing that happened to me in my entire life. Even though having my family back would be the best thing, but, being on a Daring Do Adventure, would be the second best thing. I hope things get better in life, especially when I have my bestest friends on my side.'

Diamond closed her diary, and, seeing that it's getting late, she went up to her room. As she did so, she saw Amethyst in bed, sleeping. Diamond smiled, kissed Amethyst's forehead, and placed a blanket over Amethyst. Amethyst smiled in her sleep. Diamond then looked at the moon from her window, before she headed to bed and went to sleep. As a few days went by, Diamond started to have dreams of her and Daring Do going on the same adventure over and over again, on an adventure trying to find a crown, known as 'The Divine Crown of the End'. Since Diamond kept on having dreams about that, it got her to think: 'Could that crown actually be real?' She thought about it the next morning, and then she and Amethyst went to Twilight's castle to see if she has any book or scroll that had information about it. She knocked on her door, a few seconds of waiting later, Spike answered the door, and he was kinda shocked when he saw Diamond and Amethyst.

"Oh, Diamond, Amethyst... this is unexpected." said Spike a little nervously as he rubbed the back of his neck a little with a bit of a blush.

"Hey Spike, um, is Twilight home?" Diamond asked.

"Uh, yeah, come on in." said Spike as he hand-motioned, telling them to come in.

Diamond and Amethyst walked into Twilight's Castle and looked around.

"You know, it's actually been a while since we've been into Twilight's castle." said Amethyst.

"Yeah, the last time you two were here is when Diamond was trying to protect everypony in Ponyville when Tirek attacked." said Spike.

When Spike said that, it reminded Diamond of that one day that her family died. When Tirek started blasting Ponyville, Diamond tried to protect them by getting ponies to safety from the blast, when Diamond saw that her family was trying to get out of Ponyville, but didn't noticed that Tirek was blasting their way. Diamond saw that it's heading their way, and got behind them, and uses her magic to shield them from the blast the best as she could. And because of how powerful Tirek's blast, her horn was starting to burn, and started to hurt Diamond. Her mother, Musical-Chi, noticed it, she really didn't want her daughter to sacrifice herself for trying to protect her own family, Diamond-Chi is the only daughter in her family, not to mention was in the middle of their age. Diamond sacrificing herself trying to save her family, was the last thing that she would let Diamond do. As much as Diamond would want to protect them, her mother wanted her to continue on, ever since she just became an alicorn a few weeks before Tirek started to come back. With those thoughts coming to Musical-Chi, and the way Diamond's horn was burning from her shield getting hit by the blast, Musical then pushed Diamond out of the way, which made the shield disappear, and when Diamond turned her head to look at her mother, her family then got blasted, and was disintegrated. Diamond stared in horror, knowing that her family is gone, before looking at Tirek with a death glare, before her friends the mane six, were about to defeat Tirek, after a few seconds of shocked she was in, she took running off with tears of horror in her eyes, trying to hold the tears back as she makes sure that the other ponies in Ponyville are safe. The past about Tirek reminded Diamond, and her ears kinda drooped with a frown. Spike and Amethyst looked at Diamond, realizing what Spike said had gotten her upset, and they both placed their hands around her.
