Prologue
It was a normal day in the quiet town of Ponyville, many ponies were out and about near the town square, near the local bakery, Sugarcube Corner. One of the workers of the place, Pinkie Pie, was known to be quite strange. She would appear at random, but today, the door burst open as she came running out with a letter in her mouth. 'gotta find twilight...' the pony thought as she ran through the town, barely dodging the denizens of the town. She made it to the Ponyville Library, the home of her purple unicorn friend, Twilight Sparkle. The pink pony burst through the door, the second time today, and started to call out, "TWIIILIIIGHT!" The yelling, and the door bursting open, woke up the unicorn, and she clumsily went down the stairs.
"Pinkie? Whats wrong?" the unicorn asked her hyperactive friend
"Nothings wrong, but lookie!" the pink pony held up the note she had before, which Twilight levitated to herself.
"Dear sister Pinkie," Twilight began to read aloud, "I have finished my studies in Germaney, and will be returning to Ponyville soon to move there so I can help with the lack of medical staff like they had years back. I should be arriving soon, as I am on the trip back to Canterlot, Equestria. I should be back by March twenty-second by noon, it's been far too long since I've seen any of our family. Your brother, Jack Doktor"
Twilight put the note down and gave a confused look to her pink friend, "I didn't know you had a brother, Pinkie."
Pinkie's smile grew, "He's not a bloodline brother. You see, when we were little foals, we were best friends! My family loved his, and his family loved mine. But then, about 10 years ago, his parents abandoned him, so we took him in, then the next year when I came here, he followed me here, and well, the only pony here that really met him is Big Mac and me and Derpy, because he left after six months to go and study in Germaney."
"Applejack doesn't know him?" Twilight asked her.
"Not really, she may have seen him, but he never talked to her... the only girls he talked to were me and Derpy." Pinkie explained.
"Either way, I can see why you're excited, he's arriving tomorrow!" Twilight said as she noticed the date.
"Yeah! Well, I'm off to tell the others! Big Mac will be SO happy!" pinkie said as she left the literal tree house.
Pinkie went to Rarity's Boutique, run by the white unicorn of the same name, telling Rarity about the new arrival, to which she was surprised a pony from Germaney was coming to Ponyville. Then, she went to Fluttershy's cottage, where her yellow friend stayed at and gave her a condensed version of the note and the day. Naturally, Fluttershy was nervous about meeting somepony new, but she agreed to meet him. Then, she headed a little south to find Sweet Apple Acres, where Big Mac and Applejack stayed and harvested. When she told Applejack about the day, Big Mac overheard Pinkie talking to his sister, and instantly got a smile on his face remembering the old friend of his. When she returned to town, she saw her blue pegasus friend, Rainbow Dash, and the town's mailmare, Derpy, in another argument she ran up and quickly told them about the day and the note, which caused Derpy to shout "YES!" getting confused looks from Dash. Pinkie then went back home, as it was nearly sunset, and decided to get to bed early to prepare for the next day.
