Part 1 The Student and Ponyville.
1000 years ago in the land of Equestria two princesses ruled. The elder sister raised and lowered the sun with her alicorn powers while her younger sister controlled the moon and the night.
The ponies relished and played in the day while they slept though the younger sisters night. Anger and jealousy began to take hold of the younger sister…until one day she refused to lower the moon to make way for the dawn.
The elder sister tried to talk to her, but it was of no use as the anger and jealousy turned her into a wicked mare of darkness known as…Nightmare Moon.
With no choice the elder sister harnessed the most powerful artifacts known to pony kind…The Elements of Harmony!
With the power of the elements she banished Nightmare Moon to the moon, but it is said on the longest day of the thousandth year the stars will aid in her escape.
"Thousandth year… could it mean this year?" A unicorn mare says in wonderment.
This pony name is Trixie Lulamoon she had a brilliant azure coat and a pale blue with pale blue stripes with dark grayish violet eyes; her cutie mark was a crescent moon with a star wand which represents her talent in magic.
After finishing the book she quickly ran back to the Canterlot tower where she studies her magic ignoring all who she came across along her way. Several books cluttered the tower room in which she lived for the past years.
Trixie slammed the door opened and startling the only occupant within study room which was a small purple dragon with green spines and eyes "Whoa Trixie what's the problem?" Spike asked in surprise as the azure mare began to frantically look at the bookshelves.
"Spike do you happen to know where that book about The Mare in the Moon is?" Trixie questioned quickly as she levitated several books around her looking at the titles.
Spike looked around the study room for that particular book.
"Let's see… here it is Mare in the Moon." Spike grabbed the book from the shelve and placed it on the table for Trixie to look. The young mare dropped the other books that were in her magic's grasp and rushed over to it.
"It says the same thing here…On the longest day of the thousandth year the stars will aid in Nightmare Moon's escape." She said worried.
"Trixie, Nightmare Moon is an old mare's tale to scare little fillies and colts." Spike said with confidence.
"Well I'm just concerned that this might be true, Spike I need paper and a quill for a letter." Trixie ordered.
"Got it…fire away Trixie." Spike said grabbing the items.
"Dear Princess Celestia, I'm concerned that the tales of Nightmare Moon may be true after all so I suggest that we take precaution on this matter. I would be in best interest that you cancel the Summer Sun Celebration. Sincerely Your Faithfull Student, Trixie Lulamoon."
In a breath of green fire from Spikes mouth he sent the message to Celestia.
"You sure she'll listen to you Trixie?" Spike questioned the matter.
"I'm sure the Princess will understand my concern about this." In a matter of seconds Spike burps up a letter which having a royal seal of the princess.
"My faithful student Trixie, I know your concern for everypony is in the right place, but you must get your head out of those dusty old books and make some friends." Spike said as he read and Trixie's jaw was hanging open in shock.
"As effective immediately I'm placing you in charge of the looking over the preparations of the Summer Sun Celebration which will taking place in the town of Ponyville. I'd expect you to make some friends during your time there I've already made preparations for you and Spike to stay at the Golden Oaks Library. Sincerely, Princess Celestia." Spiked finished.
As the letter ended Trixie and Spike were traveling by a pegasus pulled chariot to the grounds of Ponyville "I cannot believe she ignored my concern and today is the thousandth year of the Celebration and all she worries about is me making some friends." Trixie huffed in frustration.
Spike puts a claw to his chin "Well you have been cooped up in that study room ever since you became her student." He notes as Trixie gives the drake a hard glare.
Soon enough the two landed in Ponyville and hopped out Trixie thanking the guards. The town was in array of colors from a houses that have blue roof and brown walls to the three story town which would think a famous pony lived in it. A fountain in the town square along with a small bridge that crosses a small fishing stream below it and in the middle of it all a giant oak tree with the label Golden Oaks Library printed on a wooden plate.
"You can at least try and be friendly." Spike pleaded said to Trixie as a pink pony with a light pink coat and a dark pink mane with three balloon cutie mark two light blue and a yellow and light blue eyes was walking up to them.
Trixie cleared her throat before speaking "Um… hey my name is Trixie Lulamoon and…" before she finished her sentence the pink one sprung up in a gasp and darted away to who knows where.
"What was that all about?" Trixie asked in confusion and surprise while Spike just shrugs in response and Trixie sighs turning to Spike.
"So Spike what is first on the list?" Trixie asked hopefully wanting to finish quickly and be off to research.
"First off is catering… Sweet Apple Acres." Spike replied.
"And where is that?" Trixie questioned out loud.
"Maybe I can be of help." A voice said from behind. Trixie and Spike looked behind them to see an earth pony mare who appears to be about a few years old than Trixie with a moderate cerise colored coat and a light grayish rose with light grayish stripes going through it her cutie mark is three daisies with smiles and her eyes were grayish harlequin.
"Um… hello miss…" Trixie starts unsure who this mare was.
"Cheerlie I'm an assist teacher at the school here in Ponyville, you two don't seem to be from around here." Cheerlie says in a kind tone.
"Were not; I'm Trixie Lulamoon, and this is my assistant Spike." Trixie says.
"Yeah and we are kinda lost. Do you happen to know where Sweet Apple Acres is?" Spike asks.
"Well I happen to be on my way there to lend a hoof. I'll be happy to lead the way for you just follow me." Cheerlie said with a smile.
"That's very kind of you." Spike says as he and Trixie follow after her.
After walking for about 10 minutes down a dirt path they come into sight of a big red barn in the distance along with a field of apple trees. A sign above a grainer said Sweet Apple Acres.
"So… this looks like the place alright." Trixie replied.
"Now where on earth is that mare?" Cheerlie looked around expecting to find somepony.
Spike and Trixie looked at each other and looked back at her "So who are you looking for?" Spike questioned.
"Her name is…" before she finished a yell that sounded like "YEEHAWW" and a mare that zoomed past them the pony was an earth pony with a orange coat with a blond mane that she kept in a ponytail and wore a brown Stetson hat, her cutie mark had three red apples and her eyes were emerald green which she just finished bucking a tree and the apples fell into baskets.
The orange mare wiped off some sweat with a hoof and looked over to the trio "Oh howdy Cheerlie… and who are these strangers with yah?" the mare asked as she walked over to them
"Actually they're here to… well they haven't told me why they were here for." Cheerlie looked at them before Trixie stepped forward.
"Uh… hello my name is Trixie Lulamoon and…" before she could finish her hoof was being shook vigorously by the orange mare.
"Well howdy to meet yah miss Trixie. Name's Applejack, me and mah family run and keep Sweet Apple Acres up to date." Applejack said surprising with just one breath even after letting go of Trixies hoof, hers couldn't stop shaking up and down so Spike helped to stop her hoof.
"So what can ah help yah with missy?" She asked with somewhat of a western drawl.
"Well Applejack; me and Spike were assigned to look over the preparations for the Celebration today. I believe you have the food covered?" Trixie asked as Spike double checks the list.
"Most certainly do missy and if yah want you can even sample a few of them." Applejack smiled.
"Well I wouldn't want to impose but we really must be going." Before they could leave her and Spike had been shoved by Applejack in the direction of a table.
Applejack brought out a triangle began to ring it "SOUP'S ON APPLES!" she yelled out and before you know it a ton of ponies from the barn started running toward where they heard her
"Applejack you never told me it was the reunion today." Cheerlie said with a surprised look at all the ponies which were mostly earth ponies coming their way.
"Reunion?" Spike questioned looking at all the ponies that had just showed up.
"Yeah, you folks came in durin' the Apple family reunion. Where every apple throughout Equestria come here and have a hay of a good time." Applejack said.
"There's Red Gala, Caramel Apple, Apple Tart, Apple Fritter, Cream Apple, Apple Dumpling…" The list of all her cousins seemed to go on for awhile, and every time she listed one of her cousins they would stack food that were mostly apple based until she reached the end of her list which she took in a big breath.
"Big Macintosh, Applebloom, and Granny Smith. Up and at em Granny we have visitors." Applejack said looking at the old mare in the rocking chair taking a snooze who then snorted and proceeded to wake up.
Granny Smith is an old earth pony, her coat is a simple light green that is wrinkled, her mane is silver grey to describe it, her cutie mark is an apple pie with steam come off it and her eyes are a light yellow.
Big Macintosh is an earth pony stallion, his red coat makes him stand out among the rest, his mane is a shade darker orange than Applejacks coat, his eyes are a darker emerald green, and his cutie mark is a green sour apple.
Applebloom is an earth pony filly, her coat is bright yellow, her mane is a puffy red color with a pink bow in it, her eyes are a dark orange color, and she has yet to get a cutie mark.
"Eh… what, why didn't yah wake meh sooner AJ." Granny replied and proceed over to the table.
"Hello Miss Cheerlie what yah doin here for?" Applebloom asked curiously walking up to the mare.
"Well sweetie I was here to give your sister a helping hoof but it seems to be under control here." Cheerlie concluded.
"I'm sorry to interrupt but we really must be going to check on the other preparations." Trixie said quickly because of the large crowd of ponies.
Every pony awed that she was leaving "Yah won't stay fer brunch." Applebloom asked giving Trixie a cute crying like pout.
Trixie tried to look anywhere but at Applebloom and at that moment her stomach grumbles.
"Well that was settled." She thought.
"Oh what the hay why not I haven't eaten anything since breakfast." She said and every pony on the farm cheered.
After sampling everything at the farm they moved on to their next task "Ah that surely was refreshing wasn't Trixie." Spike said tapping his stomach while Trixie looked like she ate too much walking at a slow pace.
"Why… were there… so… many apples?"Trixie complained, Spike and Cheerlie just laughed.
As Trixie began to get back to normal she looked over to her assistant "Well what's next Spike?" Trixie questioned.
"Weather Patrol, and it looks like whoever is in charge is not doing a good job at it." Spike looking around and seeing a bunch of clouds in the sky.
"Whoever is in charge is going to get a big talk from….WAHHH!" before she finished she was hit by another pony that came flying out of nowhere landing them both in the mud puddle.
"Eh heh heh… sorry about that. Stunt went wrong." The mare said shaking the mud off herself as she got up.
The pony is a pegasi or pegasus that her coat is cyan, her mane is multiple colors of the rainbow, her cutie mark is a raincloud sparking a rainbow colored lightning bolt, and her eyes are magenta.
The pegasus flew up into the air to look at the damage she did to the mare she ran into and noticing that she was covered in mud.
"Stay there be right back." The mare flew off and not a few seconds later came back with a storm cloud and started to bounce on it and rain poured down onto Trixie cleaning her of the mud but now she was soaking wet.
"Heh heh sorry let me dry you off there." The mare proceeds to fly fast around Trixie making a mini rainbow colored twister.
When she stopped Trixie was all dried off but now her mane and tail puffed up into a mess and the rainbow colored mare, and Spike couldn't help but fall to the ground and laugh.
"Ahem." Cheerlie toned in tapping her hoof on the ground repeatedly.
"Now Rainbow Dash, you know it's not right to laugh at someone who you just help get clean." Cheerlie looked at her sternly.
"It's fine… so you're the weather pony in charge here?" Trixie questioned.
Rainbow jumped back up and introduced herself "The one and only! I'm Rainbow Dash Fastest flyer in Equestria and future member of the Wonderbolts!" She said with gusto.
"Great an egotistical mare." Trixie thought
"Well are you the pony suppose to be clearing the clouds today for the Celebration, other ponies won't be able to see if the clouds are blocking it." Trixie stated pointing to the numerous clouds in the sky
"Yeah I know that but I can get that done ten seconds flat." Rainbow replied in a more confident tone. That gave Trixie an idea that made her grin.
"Okay Dash, you talk the talk but can you back it up." She replied looking at Dash.
"What are you getting at?" Dash asked cocking her head slightly.
"All that I'm saying is…prove it." Trixie said. As soon as Rainbow heard that it sounded like a challenge.
"Oh. It. Is. On." As soon Rainbow finished talking all that Cheerlie could do was sigh already knowing of the outcome.
In a matter of only milliseconds Dash shot straight up into the air to hit the first cloud and shot to another and another, taking three to four out at the same time.
Trixie just looked on almost slacked jawed at what she is seeing before her very eyes. After what seemed like minutes were only seconds to Dash she returned to Trixie and landed next to a tree.
"Told you. Ten. Seconds. Flat." Dash said with pride before looking over to Trixie who was still in shock. Dash began to laugh.
"You should see the look on her face right now it's priceless." Still laughing and rolling on the ground.
Cheerlie looked over to Dash and started tapping her hoof again "Dash was that really necessary to show off acting like a little filly." Cheerlie scolded.
"Hey that's just who I am okay Cheer? Besides you should stop acting like an old mare and learn to have a bit of fun." Dash countered.
Trixie calmed herself losing her shocked look "Well at least the sky is clear now… huh?" Trixie started then noticed a moving cloud that was coming toward Dash.
The cloud was dark grey meaning it had not only rain but lightning too. The cloud stopped and a pony popped out of the cloud. The pony is a pegasi mare like Dash but her coat was a light turquoise her mane was a brilliant amber with brilliant gold stripes in it, her cutie was a white lightning bolt with three stars two gold and one yellow, her eyes are brilliant gamboge.
She bounced on the cloud sending a lightning bolt toward Dashes tail which send a shock through her send her to the ground and turned the tip of Dashes tail charcoal black. Dash got back up from the shock and looked around for the perpetrator before giving a small scowl.
"I only know one mare that would do this." She whispered and then looked toward where the bolt came from and the mare that was on the cloud laughing.
"LIGHTNING DUST YOUR GOING TO GET IT!" Dash yelled at the top of her lungs and flew after Dust leaving a rainbow streak behind.
"What the hay was that all about?" Spike questioned.
"Oh that's just the local prankster of the town Lightning Dust, she pranks all ponies in town, but it's all for fun Trixie." Cheerlie said looking at her mane that is now all puffy.
"Should we maybe…" Cheerlie starts as Trixie just shakes her head.
"No it's fine Cheerlie." She said giving a sideways glance to Spike who was still snickering every now and then.
"Well Spike what's next, hopefully it's something better than watching her clearing the sky?" Trixie asked hoping the next thing won't be too hard.
"Fireworks display, at the town hall." Spike answered.
"Great idea I'll take you two straight there, beside I need to check on a little filly of mine." Cheerlie said escorting the two into town as Trixie and Spike look at each other when she had said the last part.
Trixie and Spike were still wondering what she meant by that last statement she said. Walking toward Ponyville they heard a sound that was like a loud whistle going off and coming at them.
"DUCK!" yelled a voice from a distance but it was too late what sounded like a whistle quickly turned into a loud BANG sound that exploded in front of the trio who were thrown to the ground by the force of the explosion.
After the explosion Trixie was dazed and down "Great first I got crashed into by an egotistical pony and now this happens." Trixie thought almost irritated.
"No ponies or um dragons hurt." the voice said. Trixie looked around at where the voice came from, before looking down and in front of her was a small filly.
The filly is a unicorn her coat is an ash grey while her mane was a crimson red and electric blue almost like it was on fire and her mane parted back on both sides while a few stands hung in front of her. Her eyes were a deep red-orange. The filly as yet to obtain a cutie mark.
"No ponies hurt dear." Cheerliee says reassuring the filly. The filly wiped imaginary sweat with her hoof.
"Well that good cause I don't want…" before she finished another voice shouted out in the distance.
"PENDRAGON SHIMMER!" a voice that sounded more mature and sounded like it was running toward the filly who was now scared stiff.
"Oh ponyfeathers." Was all she could say as a dust cloud was seen in the distance the stopped when close and spread dust.
The source of the voice came into view was a unicorn mare who appears to around Trixie's age with a coat that was a brilliant amber. Her mane was like the filly mixed with vivid crimson with brilliant yellow like a blazing fire which contrasts with her moderate cyan colored eyes. Finally her cutie mark was a yellow and red blazing sun.
"What…happened…here?" The mare said in between breaths the question directed at the young filly who was looking back and forth…basically anywhere except at the mare in front of her.
"Well…um one of your…um fireworks might have accidently…got lit." The filly known as Pendragon said trying to come up with an excuse. The mare lifted an eye in suspicion at the fillies tone but decided not to pursue it. She sighed and looked toward the trio.
"I'm sorry if my sister has been any trouble." The mare replied. Trixie and Spike were taken aback that this mare was the fillies sister.
"Oh no no no not at all we were just on our way toward the town hall for the firework setup." Trixie said shaking her head.
"Fireworks setup oh then I'm guessing you're looking for the pony in charge of it?" The mare questioned.
"Yes we are Miss… um who are you?" Trixie asked.
"Names Sunset Shimmer and this little filly over here is my sister Pendragon Shimmer and I'm the one to make sure the fireworks goes off without a hitch." Sunset replied and her sister waved at them.
"Well nice to meet you both my name is Trixie Lulamoon and the baby dragon here is my assistant Spike and this is…" she started.
"Well hello Sunset. Is Pendragon trying to get her cutie mark again?" Cheerlie interrupts with a bit of a giggle.
"Yeah and I guess somepony decided to try her hoof at firework displays." Sunset replied while messing with her sisters mane.
"Hey sis cut it out I just brushed this morning." Pen shoving her sisters hoof off.
"It seems you two have been acquainted." Trixie concluded.
"Not just acquaintances, Cheerlie actually helped me get a job as a magic tutor, she the best friend I could ever have." Sunset complimented making Cheerlie blush a little
"I was nothing just an act of kindness nothing more." Cheerlie said as Sunset smiles rolling her eyes before looking back to Trixie.
"So Trixie you want to have a look at the fireworks display I have planned for the Celebration right?" Sunset replied suddenly.
"How you know it was for the Celebration?" Trixie questioned.
"Simple deduction, your saddle bag that seems to have been torn from a quill poking out that means you are carrying a check list and…" Sunset leaned toward Trixie and smelled her breath.
"Your breath smells like apples, which means you been to Sweet Apple Acres about say thirty two minutes ago give or take a few seconds." Sunset continues and then sighs.
"Plus you mane is a complete disaster which the way it would be like that would be if you had a run in with a certain rainbow mane pegasi who decided to do one of her famous Rainblow-Dry on you." She finished as Pen chuckles
Trixie blinks at Sunset's deduction which was right "Well guess you're not the only bookworm here are you Trixie." Spike said a bit surprised himself as Cheerlie chuckles.
"Sunset like to read quiet a bit, but mostly mystery books. Though trust me when I say you'll never meet a more honest mare like Sunset." Cheerlie complimented.
"Yea, yea but we still have lots to finish on so you'll have to look at it later. Trust us when it's finished you'll be awed." Pendragon said.
"I'm sure it will be great Pendragon."
"Pen." She interjects a little irritated.
"Huh?" Trixie questioned "Call me Pen, Pendragon is just so long." Pen replied.
"Sure thing Pen." Trixie finished.
"Oh before I forget, Sunset dear have you seen Emerald Jewel anywhere?" Cheerlie asked. Sunset pondered the question a minute before coming up with an answer.
"Well she's inside the town hall helping with the decorations with Rarity and Coco Pommel." Sunset finally said.
"Thanks." Cheerlie smiled and continued escorting Trixie and Spike toward town hall. Once they left Sunset and her sister behind the walked toward the town hall which would be the center of the celebration. It was the easiest to spot due to it be the actual center of the small town and was one of the tallest places in town next to one of the mansions.
Once they got inside the town hall, it was decorated in an array of ribbons, streamers and colorful bows. In the center of the decorations is a unicorn mare, her coat was silk white, her mane and tail is a violet color that both have been curled, her cutie mark were three well arranged diamonds, and her eyes were blue.
Spike gave a slacked jawed look when he saw this mare as hearts appeared in his eyes. Spike started to trot over but Trixie stopped him with her magic.
"Easy there lover dragon." Trixie thought.
The mare seemed to be going through some ribbon colors to see what would fit the décor. "No." the mare said to a light green color ribbon and plenty more until she found one that fit which was ruby color ribbon. The way this mare spoke reminded Trixie of several ponies back in Canterlot.
"Ahem." Trixie spoke up trying not to be rude, the mare turned around to look at the trio standing by the door.
"Oh hello dears how could I be of service." She addressed them.
"Are you Miss Rarity?"Trixie asked.
"Why yes dear and… WHAT IN EQUESTRIA HAPPENDED TO YOUR MANE?" Rarity started then exclaimed when she saw the state of Trixie's mane which had puffed out after the run in with Rainbow Dash.
"Oh… uh it nothing just a little run in with some pony, I'm just here to check on the decorations and be out of your hair." Trixie explained
"My hair what about your hair?! It's a crime against fashion all around Equestria." Rarity examined Trixie's mane.
"Come now we are leaving for my bouquet immediately darling come." Rarity said dragging Trixie along.
Rarity looked towards the curtains "Coco, Emerald come now were leaving." As she called a pony appeared out of the curtains that was an earth pony mare that is a little smaller than Rarity her coat was a light amberish gray color and her mane was a combination of light grayish cyan and light opalish gray and the tip of the mane curled while her eyes are light cyan, her cutie mark was a lavender floppy hat with a scarlet feather in it. She is Rarity's assistant Coco Pommel.
Another pony came running out before running into a pillar "Who put that there?" said the voice of the filly who had run head first into the pillar.
The pony is an earth pony filly who's coat is a jade green while her mane and tail is a silver color with a hint of blue at the tips which are curled and a small part of her mane covers the left eye to the point it can't be seen, the filly has yet obtain a cutie mark. She is Emerald Jewel and is the adopted daughter to Cheerlie.
They both walked up to Rarity "Were ready Rarity." Coco announced as Emerald walks towards them and hugs Cheerlie.
"Hey mom." Emerald said cheerfully. Trixie and Spike were taken aback from what the filly said.
"MOM!" they looked at Cheerlie and all she did was giggle.
"So how is my little Jewel?" She walked over and nuzzled the filly.
"Mom! You're embarrassing me in front of Rarity and Coco." Emerald said with a slight blush of embarrassment.
"I never expected for you to be a mother Cheerlie." Spike said.
"Well…I actually adopted her. Trixie, Spike this is Emerald Jewel my adopted daughter." Cheerlie introduced
"Hello." Emerald waved
"And the other pony is Coco Pommel who's an assistant at Rarity's bouquet her in Ponyville." Cheerlie said and Coco just curtsied in respect.
"Coco we must get Trixie's mane here straightened up." Rarity said
"That is no problem, the bouquet is not that far." Coco reassured
"Can we go mom?" Emerald asked
"Sure, I've been showing them around Ponyville for awhile care to help me out Emm?" Cheerlie asked
"YES!" Emerald practically yelled excitement in her tone.
The bouquet was near town hall so it wasn't a long walk. The bouquet's a two story building with a purple roof with four windows two on the two layer of the bouquet and the rest on the bottom floor it is also designed like a carousel. As soon as trio now became six entered the bouquet Rarity quickly brought Trixie up to a mirror and began grooming her mane.
"This is not what I've had in mind." Trixie thought as she was being groomed. The grooming took thirty minutes but Rarity didn't stop there she began putting dresses on Trixie.
"Well darling what do you think?" Rarity eyeing what Trixie's currently wearing
"It's…um… nice Rarity." Trixie replies out loud sweatdropping
"This is so embarrassing." She thought
"So Trixie why is a pony and a baby dragon doing here in Ponyville?" Coco asked
"Well I'm the overseer for the upcoming Summer Sun Celebration. To make sure everything is in order." Trixie stated
"And where did you come from dear?" Rarity prodded
"I came from Canterlot to…" Trixie started then Rarity let out a loud gasp much like the strange pink pony from earlier.
"CANTERLOT! You mean the Canterlot! The fashion, the gossip capital of the Equestria, why didn't you say that before I know all about how Canterlotians act it almost perfect! Why I only dreamed of going to Canterlot and…" Rarity proceeds to rant on about all of Canterlots fashions and other things thus giving Trixie, Spike, and Cheerlie with Emerald in tow there chance to run.
"Let's get out of here before she decides to style my mane." Trixie said running and grabbing the love struck Spike out of the bouquet.
"Come back again." Coco waved them goodbye. After escaping the fashion grip of Rarity they moved on to the next/last thing on the list.
"One last thing to check on and that's the music." Spike said
"Oh I know where that is she's probably working on the music right now." Cheerlie said as the now four ponies walk their outside of Ponyville to what seemed like a small cottage home. In the background was the entrance to a forest.
They looked around for the pony taking care of the music part. After searching around the home they heard a small song what seemed like a lullaby from the back part of the home. They looked at the back and there they a small tree filled with eight birds of different species and a pegasus mare.
The mare coat was butter yellow, her mane was long as it almost touches the ground and is lighter pink color that hanged on her right side of her head, her cutie mark were three butterflies two blue and one pink, her eyes were a light blue. She seemed to be teaching the birds how to sing. The mare flew up to the tree stopping the birds from continuing in there singing.
"Um excuse me Mr. Blue Jay, I don't want to interrupt you but you are off beat just a tiny bit ok." She said in soft gentle tone trying not to upset the bird.
"Um excuse me Miss." Trixie said and before she knew what happened the mare froze and fell on her back with her hooves straight up
"Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you I was just wondering about your name. My name is Trixie Lulamoon." Introducing herself.
She got and tried to say her name "Um… my name is Flutter*whisper*" she said in a low gentle tone
"Sorry could say that again please." Trixie said
"It's Flutters*whisper*" still sounding in a low tone
"Um one more time please." Trixie said putting her hoof to her ear
"Fluttershy." She said her name.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Fluttershy." Trixie said as Spike cleared his throat from behind her and Trixe stepped out of the way to give a better view of him.
"Oh and this baby dragon here is Spike my assistant." Spike waved at Fluttershy
"Oh my goodness!" Fluttershy squealed and zipped over to Spike
"Is he really a dragon, please tell me what you're thinking right now." Fluttershy big smile and big eyes gazed into Spikes green eyes.
"Um well." Spike was thinking of something until Cheerlie interrupted
"I'm sorry but I'm afraid we can't stay long Fluttershy, is the music for the Celebration ready." Cheerlie said
"Oh yes it will be ready by the time the Celebration starts." Fluttershy reassured.
Trixie let out a relived sigh "Thank you very much Fluttershy." She finally said
"Oh it's no trouble at all; the birds did all the work I just helped them along." She replied
"Well Trixie that's everything on the list." Spike said checking off the music.
"Well guess that's everything then, thank again Fluttershy and you too Cheerlie for getting us here." She says thanking the both of them
"It's no problem; I'm just a mare looking for anypony that could use a helping hoof every now and then." Cheerlie replied.
"Well I guess I better be going, got to get a certain filly back home." Cheerlie picking Emerald up and putting her on her back
"Aw, but Mom I want to stay out longer please!" Emerald begged with her puppy eyes.
Cheerlie pondered it and came up with a solution "Well… we can out for a little longer until the party then you go straight to bed okay." Cheerlie explained
"YAA! You're the best mom!" Emerald gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"If you need anything else Miss Trixie don't be afraid to give me a shout." Cheerlie said
"I'll keep in touch." Trixie and with that Cheerlie and Emerald left
"Well we must be going to if I want to get started on my research." Trixie said
"Bye Fluttershy." Spike waved and she waved back. It was already evening after checking everything on the list.
They both arrived at the doorstep of the Golden Oak Library "Are you still going to research the Mare and the Moon, it's only an old mare's tale Trix." Spike trying to get her out of it.
"Sorry Spike but I just want to make sure that if it is true we are in some deep trouble." Trixie replied. They entered the library and the lights were all off.
"Huh who turned out the lights?" Trixie wondered in the confusion.
Then the lights flicked back on with a bunch of ponies waiting for her "SURPRISE!" everypony yelled out making Trixie jump three feet in the air.
"What… where… who…huh?" she said in the confusion
"Well that leaves why and when huh." The pink pony spoke up and giving Trixie a cupcake.
Trixie put a hoof to her muzzle when she saw this mare "Wait you look familiar somewhere." Trixie trying to recall then it hit her like a ton of bricks.
"You're that mare from this afternoon." Trixie realized as she pointed to the mare.
"Yep Yep that's me I'm Pinkamenia Diana Pie or just Pinkie Pie for short, glad to meet you Trixie." Pinkie suddenly recalled Trixie's name.
Trixie blinked surprised this mare she just met already knew her name yet she hadn't even introduced herself yet to her "But I didn't even give you my name." then Pinkie brought out a letter from her mane that seemed familiar to Trixie
"This is yours is it." Pinkie said in a cheerful tone
"I must have dropped it when I got out of the chariot." Trixie thought as she took back the letter
"Well all I have to say is…" She took in a huge breath
"WELCOME TO PONYVILLE TRIXIE!" She yelled out and zoomed somewhere else.
"That mare is so…" Trixie started
"Random." Spike finished looking towards her
"Well Trixie this your chance to get out there and make some friends, just give it a shot will yah." Spike said. Which there were some familiar faces; Sunset Shimmer and her sister, Rarity, Coco, Cheerlie and Emerald, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, and that Lightning Dust Rainbow was chasing a while ago. Trixie pondered the thought a minute or two.
"Well I guess my research could wait a little bit longer until It's time for the sun to rise." Trixie thought and went to take Spikes advice and went to the mare she didn't talk to today; Lightning Dust
"Um hello there Lightning Dust my name is Trixie Lulamoon and…" before she finished Lightning spoke
"Whoa, how'd you know my name, are you psychic? Very suspicious." Lightning spoke very fast and Trixie tried to come up with an answer
"I …uh got your name from Rainbow Dash. That was your name she was shouting out right?" Trixie asked hoping she had her facts right and didn't get the mare's name wrong.
"Yep yep that's my name don't wear it out. I'm Lightning Dust your laughable and local Ponyville prankster pony at your service." She said in a very hyperactive tone
"So what was that at the park earlier today? You zapping Dash on the tail with that bolt?" Trixie asks.
Lightning let out a small laugh "Oh that was just one of my pranks you know, I took precautions not hit her directly, even though I'm a prankster I have standards." Lightning said proudly.
They talked for hours until it was nightfall and the mayor of Ponyville appeared on the stand, tapping the microphone to get everyponies attention.
The mayor was an earth pony that had a tan coat with a white mane that display her age her eyes were a light magenta eyes which she wore a small set of glasses, her cutie mark is a balancing scale.
"Attention ladies and gentlecolts I'm proud to announce that this years Summer Sun Celebration was a huge turnout and how else to finish off the Summer Sun Celebration is none other than the ruler of the Sun, PRINCESS CELESTIA!" She announced and the curtain opened where Celestia should have been but instead appeared empty.
Then out of nowhere a shadowy mist appeared on stage, the lights flickered out as the shadow mist began to transform into what seemed like a large pony. As it took its shape, the shadow turned into an alicorn mare, she was taller than any regular pony, her coat was a dark navy blue, her eyes were dark green with a cat like pupil, her horn is longer and sharper than any unicorn, her wings huge and more vampire bat like, her cutie mark was that of a white crescent moon.
She spoke with more of a Canterlot voice but with more fear. "I'M SORRY TO KEEP YOU WAITING MY SUBJECT BUT YOUR PRINCESS HAS RETURNED!" She yelled out and started to laugh to bring even the bravest stallion to his knees. Trixie realized who this mare was and began to back away.
"Just like in the legend, the stars will aid in her escape." Trixie swallow at just the name
"Nightmare Moon." Trixie said the name that was thought to be an old mare tale now standing in front of her in all her glory.
F3: Well this could be a problem.
Pinkie: Wow she's defiantly not a happy camper. How could this get any worse from here?
F3: PINKIE DON'T SAY THAT!
Pinkie: Too late just did. *Smiles*
F3: Ugh… Next time: Moonlight Stories P2: Trials and Tribulations. I'm Fireuser3 Blazing Out.
