Dust stopped outside the factory, staring across town at her own house in its slow drift. Maybe she'd be better off if I gave her back. It wouldn't be hard. If anything, it would only show the mayor that he'd won. It would be her admission that she'd been wrong. How many more basements will she have to sleep in if I do? That wasn't to say the little pony had much better prospects waiting for her if she did accompany Dust to wherever she traveled next. Whatever fortune Dust had once enjoyed was now gone. Lucky would be in for a long ride across Equestria, bound for who knew what destination.
