Still in 3rd person's POV

"Umm... Whats wrong?" Ocellus asked.

"If I'm the friendship problem, then why haven't you guys...you know, glow??" Orchid asked.

"Not sure but we definitely can't go back home before we figure out what else we need to do." Sandbar said.

"Wait! Didn't griffon said that maybe Orchid and Orchid's mom are both problem?" Yona asked.

"But that would mean Orchid would have to confront her mom." Silverstream replied.

"M-m-me? Confront my mom?? N-no, I can't. She's too strict about our laws in our kingdom. Besides, w-what do I need to c-confront her a-about? I can't just-"

"Look, we know confronting your mom is scary, but Tempest visited you guys because she thought it would be a good idea for all of you to learn friendship. Who knows? Maybe your mom would have a change of heart once you tell her that you're the one who's right and she's wrong." Gallus cut her off. Orchid Breeze still felt nervous coming back.

"But how about all of you? I can't just leave you alone." Orchid breeze replied.

"Don't worry, your kingdom isn't the type of place to have much guests and we understand that. We'll just stay here and wait until we glow or something like that." Smolder replied.

"Remember, friends believe Orchid can do this."" Yona said. 

"I promise I'll come back for you guys." Orchid said as she spread out her wings ad hovered above them.

          They all nodded and Orchid Breeze smiled to her new friends before taking off and returning back to her home,

"Any creature want cupcakes?" Sandbar asked before pulling out two boxes of cupcakes out of his saddle bag.

"How do they still have frosting on them? Usually they would collapse or something." Gallus said.

"Well, Professor Pinkie Pie does have her ways in baking." Sandbar replied. They all sat down in a circle and ate their cupcakes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TIME SKIP: AN HOUR LATER...

          The six creatures felt stuffed after eating a lot of cupcakes but then saw each other glowing. Orchid Breeze came flying towards the six friends. Every creature noticed her huge smile on her face. She then landed and said,

"I did it!!! Sorry it took so long, a lot of the eltas missed me so much, it was hard to get through a crowd but I managed. I was able to confront my mom what happened but of course I didn't mention you guys since she would get crazy. We had a few mishaps during our conversation but then she she accepted the fact that she was wrong and I was right. And so, she accepted Wind Tide for who she is. Not only that but I was able to tell my subjects about what I learned about friendship, I even apologized to my little sister and her friend and they both forgave me, but I have to share my clothes to her which is something I don't like. Sadly, Wind Tide was caught and was sent to the dungeons but I was able to talk to her and asked if we could start over and she said yes. So I'm planning to come back later and catch up with a few things." Orchid explained.

"We're so proud of you Orchid!!!'" Silverstream saiid as she givs her a tight hug and lets go.

"Well, we better get going. Its getting dark and we don't want the Princess of Friendship to be worried." Sandbar said.

"Wait! before you go, if Princess Twilight asks you about your friendship mission, please don't tell her everything about it." 

"Why?" Gallus asked.

"Our kingdom only trusts Tempest. Even if you six were students of Princess Twilight, my mom wouldn't allow any elta being in communication with other creatures since our own kind still can't trust other creatures. You can tell Princess Twilight that you helped an elta but thats just it. Nothing else other than that. I hope you understand." Orchid explained.

"Its okay Orchid, we understand. And I'm sure Princess Twilight will understand too." Sandbar replied.

"Anyway, it was nice knowing Orchid Breeze. Yak hopes to see friends soon." Yona said.

"And I hope to see you all too! Safe travels!!" Orchid replied as she wave her new friends a goodbye with them doing the same thing. Its been few minutes while they were walking and with a bit of silence, as they walked, Sandbar thought of an idea,

"Hey guys, maybe we should write a letter to Princess Twilight. You know, to let her know we're on our way back home and telling her what we learned. This is our first friendship mission. But of course we won't tell her about we helped and how we helped Orchid. I've got a quill and paper we can write on."

"How did Sandbar have that?" Yona asked.

"Better to be prepared." Sandbar answered.

"Well that actually sounds a good idea. C'mon every creature, time to get writing." Ocellus replied.

          One by one, each of the creatures started writing their own paragraph before rolling it up to a scroll and sending it to Princess Twilight.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MEANWHILE IN CANTERLOT...

(P.S. Its night time)

          In the throne room, Twilight and Spike were just finishing up some last minute paper work when all of a sudden, a scroll appeared right in front of Twilight,

"You know Spike? If you're planning on giving me a letter, you could've just done that by hand instead of your fire breath." Twilight said.

"But I didn't send you a letter" Spike replied.

"Then who's it from?" Twilight asked while Spike had no clue either as he gestured that he doesn't know. Twilight opened the scroll and read who it was from and gasped,

"Its from the the six creatures. But how would they able to send a letter to me? None of them is unicorn."

"I remember teaching Smolder how to use her fire breath to send letters though." Spike answered.

"Meh makes sense" Twilight replied. She began reading the letter out loud.

Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle,

Just want to let you know that we are heading back to Ponyville from the Great Plains right now. As much as we would like to share everything about our friendship mission, we are not allowed to shared much info about it. The creature we helped was an elta and due to the law from the Queen of the Eltas, we are not permitted to share a lot of info. What we would like to share to you is what we learned from it.

As time goes by, every creature is so busy with their responsibilities that we never get to have the time to be with the ones we love, like our family and friends. Sometimes, anyone assumes things even though they aren't what it seems. For example, when you and your friends are far away from each other, they assume we're not friends anymore. Even in friendship, its important to learn to still be smart not just in studies. You need to learn to think before you speak and learn to be aware.

Its hard not being able to be with them especially when you're in a long-distance friendship. But its best to look on to the bright side. We always think that anything can go wrong but anything can go right too. All you need are some creatures to help you see the better side of life even when things get you down. Even if they don't feel like any of thise kinds of stuff, its best to share the enthusiasm and positivity they need.

There are a lot of things to be afraid of in friendship like trusting your friends, not being able to see each other and many more. Even when confronting them in any situation is scary, but we learn to be strong not only to our fears but for the creatures we love. No physical strength is anything like the fearless warrior you are.

Friends are imperfect, just like friendship. Creatures make mistakes but creatures learn from them. Yak makes lot of mistakes but because of yak's friends, yak able to better yak. Yona's friends been with her since the day Yona moved to Ponyville. Yona's friends been so supportive and helpful to her. Yona wanted to do the same thing to every creature. Yak believes that any creature can achieve and do anything, thats why Yona supports them no matter what. If creatures think they're a failure to themselves, they are never a failure to Yona.

Being far away from my friends have never been easy, and I'm sure thats the same thing for you and your friends. But I realized to never give up. I learned to be determined no matter what the situation is. Sure, as a captain of the Royal Guard, its my duty to be at work at all costs. But missing my friends have never left my mind. They were the ones never gave up on me so I should do the same. And thats something no one else have ever done that to me before.

During our school days, I was the only pony to be friends with the other creatures. As a pony, not many of our classmates didn't understand why I would hang out with these creatures. Every ordinary thing becomes extraordinary. Even if I was just an earth pony, I was still filled with care for these creatures. I learned to accept them no matter what they are. I learned to not judge them by their mistakes or by who they're from. Friendship is full of surprises and comes in many different ways. So no matter what form your friendship is, I should always be thankful of it.

                                                                                                                                    Sincerely,

                                                                                                                                    Gallus, Silverstream, Ocellus,

                                                                                                                                    Smolder, Yona and Sandbar

"Wow, for their first friendship mission, they did a pretty great job. Its too bad we didn't know what the problem is." Spike said. Twilight scrolled the letter and replied,

"Its fine. The eltas aren't known to be that social, so we understand." She placed the scroll down and out of nowhere, a burst of light flashes in the throne room.
