No Surprise

*At Rainbow Dash's house...*

"Okay, dahlings. We're gonna have a great deal of fun with the appreciation day. We must not tell Sparkleworks it's for her. I need you all to quietly get invitations out as quickly as possible. This has to be done just right," requested Rainbow Dash.

"I'll deliver them," assured Love Wishes.

"Be careful, Love Wishes. These letters are all decked out with glitter and we don't want them getting ruined," warned Rainbow Dash.

"I'll be extra careful," said Love Wishes before taking the invitations. *Later that day...*

"Hi, Minty," stated Sparkleworks.

"Sparkleworks. So good to see you. What's going on?" said Minty awkwardly.

"Are you feeling okay?" asked Sparkleworks.

"I'm just fine but I gotta go," replied Minty before racing off.

"What's gotten into her?" questioned Sparkleworks. *That evening...*

"It's almost time, dahlings. Have the invitations been delivered?" told Rainbow Dash.

"All delivered and the ponies in question have gotten them," confirmed Love Wishes.

"Now all we have to do is wait," assured Rainbow Dash. *Hours later...*

"Where is Sparkleworks?" asked Skywishes.

"She wouldn't have known about the event because no one told her," explained Minty.

"We need to bring her out without telling her what it is," suggested Rainbow Dash.

"I hope nothing is wrong with her," remarked Skywishes as she and others race to Sparkleworks' house. *At Sparkleworks' house...*

"Hi, everyone. What're you all doing here at this hour?" asked Sparkleworks.

"We must show you something, dahling. Follow us," requested Rainbow Dash. *Sparkleworks follows the others.* *At the Celebration Castle...*

"Here we are, dahling. Wait right here," stated Rainbow Dash.

"For what?" asked Sparkleworks.

"You'll see, dahling," replied Rainbow Dash before heading inside.

"It must be pretty exciting," pondered Sparkleworks. *The others race out.*

"We love you Sparkleworks!" shouted everyone together.

"What is all this?" questioned Sparkleworks.

"We thought about showing some appreciation for you so we opted for a special day in your honor. You name it and we all do it," explained Skywishes.

"You didn't have to do all that," protested Sparkleworks.

"You provided us the fireworks the other day. We felt we had to do something in return," said Rainbow Dash.

"Yeah. That was such a fun slumber party and the fireworks were a nice bonus too," agreed Pinkie Pie.

"What a gracious host you were too," added Minty.

"Thanks so much, everyone but can't this wait until morning? I'm pretty tired right now," requested Sparkleworks.

"Of course, Sparkleworks. We'll bring you all the fun tomorrow," agreed Pinkie Pie before she and the others head off.

"What great friends I have to do all this for me," thought Sparkleworks.
