The scene starts off with the main six and Discord gathered around a campfire. They are all roasting marshmallows on a stick (especially Pinkie Pie who has a whole branch full of marshmallows).

Discord: Thank you all for inviting me on this little pow-wow over here. I couldn't be more honored.
Twilight Sparkle: Well, you are one of us now, so it's the least we could do.
Pinkie Pie: Not to mention you brought all these tasty, delicious, marshmallows! *Crams them all into her mouth* Mmm-mmm!
Discord: Well now that we're all toasty, sitting comfortably, and with plenty of sugar flowing to the brain. *Pulls a flashlight out of hammer space* How about I treat you fillies to a scary story. * Lights the flashlight under his face*.
Fluttershy: Oh... I don't know... If they get too scary, they'll give me nightmares. If they give me nightmares, then I won't be able to sleep. And from there, I may never be able to sleep again. That would be horrible!
Rarity: Fluttershy does have a point. *Yawns* Not to mention it is getting awfully late and I do need my beauty sleep.
Rainbow Dash: Aw, beauty sleep, shmeauty sleep! I've got the perfect scary story! *Grabs the flashlight from Discord* This is the terrifying tale of Frozen Heart, the rainbow maker! Muahahahahahahaha! *Lightning flashes behind her. The camera zooms out and shows Fluttershy whimpering and cowering. Rainbow Dash laughs quieter* Wahahahaha.
Apple Jack: What in tar-nation is a Frozen Heart?
Pinkie Pie: And why is rainbow making scary? Rainbows aren't scary at all! I think it would be fun to make rainbows! What if I made two? Then it would be a double rainbow! Wouldn't it be great to see all the way across the sky!
Rainbow Dash: Not these rainbows, Pinkie. I'll tell you just how scary rainbows can be.
Fluttershy: Please don't. I don't like this story.
Rainbow Dash: If you don't want to listen, you can just go home.
Fluttershy: *Looks at everypony staring at her* Never mind. I'll stay.
Rainbow Dash: Anyway, this is the story of Frozen Heart, the rainbow maker. *Fades into a flashback while Rainbow Dash narrates* It all started a very long time ago. Back in the early years of Equestria. In those days, the governing bodies worked a little differently from now. Back then Cloudsdale was run by a governess named Frozen Heart.

The scene transitions to a grayscale setting on Cloudsdale. The camera zooms in to a dutiful looking Pegasus overlooking some of the fillies as they play in the clouds. She snorts in a disinterested fashion.

Frozen Heart: Pitiful waste of time, frolicking about like a pig on an apple farm. When there is so much work to be done.

The camera pans behind her so we get half of her face in the shot but still get the view of the door. Said door opens as a stallion hurries in.

Unnamed Stallion: Mam'm Music Note just had her foal, two of them to be exact.

Frozen Heart: *Her face is still impassive* How do they look?

Unnamed Stallion: A bit sickly Mam'm, from what the doctor has told me they aren't expected to do much for a couple of days.

Frozen Heart: *she continues to stare at the fillies down below, her mouth twitching* Is that so? We're getting the runts all the time. When can we be expected to be a force to be reckoned with? This is just getting sad.

Unnamed Stallion: *he looks confused* I don't understand, are you not happy that Music Note had foal?

Frozen Heart: *she turns her head giving him the perception that she's looking right at him when really her eyes aren't focused at any fixed point* It's nothing, go back to your patrolling.

Unnamed Stallion: Uh Mam'm you don't have me for patrolling I'm on-

Frozen Heart: *she stomps her hoof impatiently* I don't care! GO back to whatever it was you were doing!

The Stallion nods and walks out, not sure what to make of the exchange.

Frozen Heart Sits at her desk and contorts her thoughts, trying to wrangle the answer from her brain. 'We have too many kids and other ponies not ready to get into the work force, and they're expected to be fed...we don't have that much food to support them...so what invoke the law, 'who does not work does not eat?'

Frozen Heart taps her hind hoof as her ice blue eyes pierce the opposite wall, as if the wall was giving her the answers. She sat there, in high concentration that not even the cries and squeals of the fillies below could break her focus.

She continues pondering until a ball breaks through her window and bounces off the back of her head. She rubs the back of her head for a moment and examines the ball.

Pink Filly (Candy Floss): Oh, now you've done it.

Green Filly (Blitz): It wasn't my fault. I would have caught it if Thunder Clap hadn't thrown it so high.

Gray Colt (Thunder Clap): That's because you can't fly fast!

Frozen Heart: What is the meaning of this?

Candy Floss: We... We're sorry Miss Governess.

Blitz: We didn't mean to break your window.

Frozen Heart: Do you foals have any idea how much this window costs? Do you?

Blitz: We're sorry.

Thunder Clap: Can we please have our ball back?

Frozen Heart: Have your ball back? HAVE YOUR BALL BACK? *Flies out the window and down to their level* Do you know how hard it is to run Cloudsdale, little colt? Let me tell you! The economy is already down the drain and we are on the verge of war with the Changelings!

Thunder Clap: *Whimpering* We said we were sorry...

Frozen Heart: Sorry? Sorry! Sorry sure won't get you far when the Changelings invade! All it will get you is your limbs torn clean off, your belly ripped open, and all of your life's juices sucked dry! Now, I am the only one preventing that from happening and all I get is sorry? Well? *Thunder Clap starts to cry as the other foals huddle together. The crying irritates Frozen Heart further* Get out of my sight! All of you! *The foals go running away scared*

The scene cuts back to the main six still listening to Rainbow Dash speak.

Apple Jack: Gee, that Frozen Heart sure sounds mean. I mean, you can't go yellin' at a bunch of kids like that.

Rainbow Dash: Trust me, mean doesn't even cover it A.J. Let me tell you about what happened when the war did start.

Fluttershy: Oh please don't. That's when things get really scary.

Discord: There's no need to fret, dear Fluttershy. This happened eons ago, for Celestia's sake.

Pinkie Pie: So, wait, this story is all true?

Twilight Sparkle: Yeah, didn't you learn about this in History Class?

Pinkie Pie: Well, you could say I had an unconventional youth. *Her eyes go out of focus as she starts having flashbacks about the rock farm. Quickly snaps out of it* Yep, completely unconventional!

Rainbow Dash: So anyway, where was I? Oh yeah! *The scene goes back into the flashback form* The Changeling War started and Cloudsdale seemed to be taking the worst beating. They were drafting anypony they could into the military. Without any magic to help them, the pegasi were being picked off left and right and Frozen Heart was getting desperate.

The scene cuts to Music Note trying to quiet her baby foal and get it to sleep.

Music Note: Come on, Treble, your brother is already asleep.*Treble finally quiets down after a while. Music note puts him down in his crib and kisses him goodnight. She then goes into her room and opens up her jewelry box to look at a silver necklace her husband gave her.* I hope you're safe out there, Stanza. It's been hard without you around. *There is a knock at her door and she goes to answer it* Frozen Heart? What brings you here at this time of night?

Frozen Heart: Music Note, you and I have been friends since we were in school. This is why I came here personally to tell you that you have been drafted.

Music Note: Drafted? Me? *Remembers the babies and lowers her voice* I can't be drafted. I have two little colts to take care of. They need their mother.

Frozen Heart: Don't worry about the little beasts. We have specialized centers where they will be well taken care of.

Music Note: But what if I, or Stanza for that matter, don't come back? What will happen to them then?

Frozen Heart: There are plenty of orphanages all across Equestria, aren't there? I'm sure someone will want them if the worst should happen. Now, get everything settled by tomorrow afternoon or else we'll have to take you by force.

Music Note: No.

Frozen Heart: I'm sorry.

Music Note: *Starts backing towards the stairs* I'm not going! You're not going to have me or my babies! *She flies up the stairs and locks and barricades the door. She goes over to the cribs and scoops up her children* Shush Bass, there's nothing to worry about. I'll make sure nopony takes you two away. Please don't cry, Treble. It'll be alright.

Frozen Heart: *Starts pounding at the nursery door* Music Note, you had better not be resisting me. This is against the law, you know. I have every right to take force if I need to.

Music Note: *Packs as much as she can into a sack* Don't squirm too much! This is going to be a rough ride!

She opens window as someone much stronger is starting to beat on the door. Music Note grabs the two foals and jumps out the window as the door is beaten down.

Guard: Your orders, Frozen Heart?

Frozen Heart: Pursue her, but don't kill her.

The two guards go flying after Music Note. She starts flying through the clouds in an attempt to lose her pursuers, but one comes flying in from the side and knocks her into a spin-out. The other guard swoops in and tries to snatch the two babies from her. Music Note tries to keep a hold on her two sons but the stallion kicks her away. She goes spiraling down and lands on her wing on a lower cloud.

Music Note: *Tries to get back up* Aah! My wing!

The two guards land beside the lamed Music Note and await Frozen Heart. Frozen Heart lands shortly afterward.

Guard: The subject has been incapacitated. What shall we do with these children?

Frozen Heart: *Examines the two crying foals* We'll take them to the youth center. If their growth increases, they could still be of use to us.

Music Note: *Still wincing in pain* Please... not my babies... give them back, please!

Frozen Heart: Tsk, tsk, tsk. Oh Music Note, do you see what kind of price you pay for your selfishness? Not only have you earned yourself a broken wing, but you're letting all of Equestria down too. The Equestrian Army needs as many ponies as they can get, and while you sat around molly-coddling your foals, the Changelings have claimed hundreds of lives. You should have been like your husband. At least he went quietly. Surely, Celestia would weep if she saw your cowardice now.*Turns to the guard who is not holding the babies* Take her to a hospital. See to it that that wing is looked at.

Guard: Yes, Governess Frozen Heart.

The guard picks her up and carries her off. They all fly off into the moonlight.

The settings return to color as the mane six look at Rainbow Dash. Apple Jack looks disturbed, Rarity closes her eyes in a resigned fashion, Fluttershy covers her head with her hoofs, Twilight Sparkle quickly grabs one of the many books that she brought and hooves through it trying to line up the story, and Pinkie Pie's jaw drops all the way to the ground.

Rainbow Dash: Oh and that's not even the worst part, after The Governess went to check up on Music Note-

Fluttershy: *she lets out a soft wail* Oh please don't continue! It's too scary!

Apple Jack: Now I don't get it. What kind of friend just takes her foals away from her, that ain't right.

Rarity: *she lets out an angry shudder* You're absolutely right for once, that most certainly isn't the right thing to do! That poor mother, having her little ones ripped away from her, and with the high chance that she will never see them again! This is just terrible!

Twilight Sparkle: *she clears her throat* Well, I did find the entry about Frozen Heart, but all it said is that she was the Governess during the time of the Changeling War. *She flips a couple pages ahead* Nothing else about her, are you sure this is all try Rainbow Dash?

Discord: *he was in the form of his younger-self while the story was being told* Well what did you expect Miss Twilight Sparkle? *He turns himself into a caricature of Princess Celestia; Where her hair length is exaggerated so it drapes on each of the girls, and 'her' eyes looks unfocused and tongue hanging out*

Princess Celestia/Discord: *The voices sound merged* After everything that has happened on Cloudsdale, I promise that no Earth pony shall know of the bloodshed, it shall be a secret to Pegsi and Pegsi alone.

Apple Jack: Then how in Sam Hill could you tell us this story Rainbow Dash?

Rainbow Dash: *she shrugged* I didn't know it was such a big deal, sorry.
