Cloudchaser pushed her wing to beat faster. It hurt, but at least she would be mildly safe. Only a good few kilometers away from the Cornucopia, she stopped to exhale. Wing in hummingbird-mode, she looked around with her keen, rose eyes. A small grayish cloud was lazily drifting not too far away. 'Perfect' she murmured and silently swooped towards it. She landed lightly, and twisted its shape so it hid her better. It was soft but cold, and not very comfortable. Away from the other ponies, she quickly looked at her things. A small backpack, food for two days if she was sparing, a rather solid staff, a few stubby arrows, a bit of medicine and binoculars. 'That ain't too bad' she concluded. 'I just need to make a bow, maybe a couple more arrows and steal a bottle' she concluded. As if on cue, dryness hit her throat. 'Not now. At midday, when everyone least expects it' she declared to herself firmly and sighed, burying into the cloud.
