A/N: Yeahhh… I'm remaking this story. There's going to be lots of parody characters because the fourth wall is very weak.
Once again, Falling Star had slept through the Summer Sun Celebration. Canterlot can get a little crazy when your dad's a member of the Royal Guard. And he still didn't have his cutie mark.
"Hey, Star!" somepony called. A white earth pony colt with a blue mane and a constellation cutie mark was the owner of that voice. That was Orion, Star's best friend. "Whatcha been up to lately?" he asked.
"Nothing much," Star laughed, "just admiring Twilight Sparkle…"
"You know that she pays more attention to books-"Orion started.
"I KNOW!"
That very unicorn those colts were talking about trotted by them. "Watch how a pro does it, Orion," Star bragged.
"Hey Twilight! What are you up to lately?" Star called. Orion rolled his eyes, knowing where this was going.
"Just studying. And you?" she asked.
"I'm certainly not admiring you!" responded Star. Everypony on the street facefaulted from that lie. Star quickly galloped back to his house when somepony began to stand up.
"He has a crush on me?" Twilight asked as she got back on her hooves.
"Exactly," said Orion, who was also getting back on his hooves.
...
"MOM, I'M HOME!" screamed Star. His mother's name was Buttons, and she was a descendent of Buttons from Paradise Estate.
"Star, if you want to talk to me, come to the living room, where I'm at!" called Buttons. Star trotted into the living room.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" asked Buttons.
"Well, I was chatting with Twilight, and she asked me a question that scared me." He explained the whole story to her.
...
"Cut that mortal's thread of life nice and easy…" said one of three alicorn crones known as the Fates. A scream echoed throughout the cavern.
"INCOMING!" yelled Clotho. The ghost of a pony flew into a tunnel, and then a sign above changed to "OVER 1000000001 SERVED".
"DiD yOU hEAr thaT?" asked a draconequus.
"Yes, it sounded like a faint 'what' coming from the surface," said Atropos.
...
CANTERLOT
On the night before the Grand Galloping Gala, Falling Star went to the castle observatory. Canterlot Castle's actually open to most ponies, so Star could go and look. When he looked through the telescope, something very strange happened. The castle shook, he saw a rainbow shockwave through the telescope, then a rainbow comet flew through the air.
He could see a large purple dragon burst through the roof of the academy. "SWEET CELESTIA!" Star screamed. Then it disappeared. Star felt a tingle on his flank, and saw it. A yellow comet was on his flank.
"I GOT MY CUTIE MARK! I GOT MY CUTIE MARK!" Star yelled at the top of his little colt lungs. He ran into the statue garden to see the comet better, but it only left a rainbow trail. Leaning against the statue of a strange creature that's like a mix of many animals, Star grinned, knowing that he finally got his cutie mark. The moon, with its strange pattern on it, was shining on the castle. Star heard crying somewhere, then he left for home.
6 YEARS LATER…
Falling Star had gone to Canterlot Castle to go meet Princess Celestia for the first time. Star had met Philomena before, but not the Princess. She was probably the second most beautiful pony he had ever seen in all 12 years of his life. He quickly repaired a bust of Princess Platinum with his magic, then stood up straight. This was probably the most important moment of his life…
"Hello," said Princess Celestia.
"It's very nice to meet you, Your Highness." Star bowed.
"You don't have to bow," she laughed. Star got up, shocked about this.
"Um, Princess Celestia, do you think that I should follow my cutie mark?"
"Of course. That's what I did when I first raised the sun," she responded. She then took the unicorn to the bridge to the tower. He could see most of Western Equestria from there! Even Gildedale and Dream Valley were visible!
"Try starting there," Princess Celestia pointed her hoof towards a small town near a forest, a farm, and a strange pit. "That's Ponyville."
