[North's voice comes over the network, sounding rather panicked. Surprisingly so, especially to people who know him for his quiet, patient demeanor.]

Is anyone else in Ponyville right now? 

If you are, have you seen Theta? 

It's really important that I find him, and I think it's getting dark.

[That's new...and all the more worrisome.]

Gotcha!

[Emile pounces (as much as a pony can), but seems dismayed to find yet another fading dragon.]

C'mon, you ain't the real one either?

[brokentrust]

[Nope. Bad luck, Emile.]

[spaceracist]

[Son of a bitch. Well, Emile will keep looking until someone gives the sign that they've found the real Theta or the sun comes up, whichever one comes first....]
