Trees and plants sped past in a blur. Now this was the sort of thing that her new mystery novel should have--A high-speed, action packed chase! The fate of an innocent unicorn hangs in the balance! Nevermind all that she had done was sprint from the fountain to here, this was ultra-fast ac--
"WHOA!" Off in her own little world, Butterscotch didn't even notice the tree stump in her path until she had tripped over it. Laying in a sprawled heap, she finally managed a grin. "Well... we're here."

Razz trotted up to Butterscotch, extending his hoof as he helped her up. Then, looking around, he said, "Heeeeey, my hot air balloon is not far from here! I crashed into the forest right up there on the side of the mountain. Look! You can see it there!" He pointed to the spot on the slowly sloping hill where intermingled with the trees on the mountainside were patches of brilliant violet and gold from the downed balloon.
"I really have to remember to get that fixed."

"Ooooh..." Butterscotch squealed, despite herself. Balloons were a relatively common mode of transportation in Ponyville, but she was still delighted by the sight of one. "Wait, you crashed? Uh, no causualties or damage beyond repair suffered, right?"
"Don't let yourself get distracted, Butterscotch! You're on a case right now!" I firmly told myself. Sometimes I had the attention span of a newborn... honestly.

"Oh, I was fine. I got tossed about in the basket for a little while, but Silverfall calmed the storm and then I crashed. The balloon was torn, so I need to have it fixed. Then we can go for a ride! Um...I need another test drive anyway," Razz said, confident that his second time commanding his new sky balloon would go much better than the first.

"I can't wait! It would be so much fun... Thanks, Razz," Butterscotch's face lit up at the prospect. "I can picture it now... the balloon, barely brushing against the clouds, little butterfly kisses sent to the heavens... seeing for miles below... watching pegasi dance with the wind..." She gave a dreamy sigh. A poet, she wasn't, but she had a sentimental streak nonetheless.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Razz exclaimed. "Captain Razz!! And Butterscotch, First-Hoof Navigator! Commanding Ponyville skies for miles around!" He made an elaborate gesture, indicating they should surge forward toward the crash site.

Butterscotch nodded eagerly and sprang off in the direction of the burst balloon. "I like the way you think... Captain!" She tossed her head in a salute and giggled. "We'll own the skies... Nothing will be able to slow us down!"
Butterscotch's inner narrorator switched genres with only a bit of complaining. Captain Razzaroo and his loyal companion Butterscotch raced across the edges of Ponyville. They were bound for their hot air balloon, which had been marrooned in a... a tornado! Yeah!

Razz kicked up his heels and ran.
