Gears
Gears was walking down Ponyville's main road toward the central square, as he needed to buy some parts to keep his shop running. Business had been decent, as he'd had plenty to fix after the Celestial Twister, but he could only ask ponies to pay so much, so his profits were slim, particularly when he was running low on parts.
Sprocket
Now that Gears was gone, Sprocket was making her escape. She wanted to go down to school and meet up with her friends, even though Gears had wanted her to stay home and help out during the busy part of the day. She didn't like the mechanical parts that he was always fixing, as she always ended up covered in dark grease (as she was now), and anyway her friends were much more fun to be around than him.
Seraphina
Seraphina was lazily gliding high above Ponyville, making wide circles all the way around the town. She didn't feel like doing any hard training just then, but she was in the habit of exercising every day and taking a day off without using her wings at all felt wrong and weird.
