Applejack was waking up earlier than normal Now she was use to this but she looked out side to see Trenderhoof talking with some other ghost and she head out mostly because apple zest was in his carrier with his dad.

she galloped out to see the ghosts looked alike minus color they was three one them one was blue one was red one purple. They were dressed in Samurai armor had black manes and tails. Yellow horns large yellow fanged Teeth and green eyes.

the red one spoke, "Oh thanks for the directions man!" Apple Zest giggled and waved as Trenderhoof looked to the panting confused applejack, "Oh Relax they are oni they scare bad foals till they stop being bad. They are only here because it's almost time for the Hyakki yagyo! Or one hundred ghost parade in pony langue !"

applejack tilt her hat, "oh they were just asking for directions!... so ghost parade?"

the ghost smiled as their son giggled, "Simple really it's a festival for ghost thrown yearly on the last day the king leads the strongest ones on a parade through the streets of the living town we party outside of!"

Later on Applejack was talking to her friends now carrying Zest who was a sleep, "So ghost parade?"

Twilgiht smiled carrying midnight in her hooves, "yes it's a fun time!" she said remembering " Dark light was conserved during my first one!" She said red at the memory as her friends all took a step back.

Pinkie shivered as she gasped, "… you can't throw a party in a party it's rude!" with was her one complained.

Fluttershy nuzzled little Tia's tummy, "well Pinkie me and you have no place in it we aren't dating a ghost or a ghost or have ghost foals!"

Rarity sighed, "it can be me and spike's first formal date I guess!" she said adjusting her mane, "but what if some other creepy ghost flirts with me! Spikey Wikey will eat it! and become a cannibal!" she said worried about that crazy.

Rainbow dash blinked and said, "Wait Jazz isn't a ghost! But she's relate to Ghost does that mean I am coming as a plus ones plus one?" she asked holding her chin only to get a shrug form the others.

Zecora then walked in with little Zendaya on her hip as she smiled and said, "you are all invite as the elements of harmony to the Kyakki Yagyo by my husband the ghost king so come will most likely be in your favor!"

pinkie held up her hoof and asked, "do I need to bring something like dip or cupcakes? Do ghost like cupcakes or dip?" she was about to start talking a mile a minute but in a moment a muzzle appeared on her and Tai clapped her hands giggling at what she did.

Pinkie pie pulled it off and gasped looking at the foal, "Really funny!"

Meanwhile.

Zeta was flying around in his normal ghost form with ghostly tail firing a ghost ray at what looked like skeleton ghost pegasus!

The ghostly colt breath ice on one freezing it before moving his front hooves sending off a shock wave that hit three more!

One managed to grab him so he made tow clones who punched it in the skull making it let go the real one who turned as the copies let out a sonic scream each facing a different way that seemed to destroy two fourths of the horde.

the Clones vanished as the piles of ponies still flow at him, Making Zeta make a barrier with he then made spark zapping and braking apart the ghostly bones, "I hate minions!" he said as he was still surrounded by them.

So he span around quickly sending out a ring of ghostly fire that hit a few of them braking them before flying forward a full speed with energy formed into a two blade sword in his mouth slashing apart half of the remaining ones.

the remaining ones charged so Zeta made two clones and each one held out a hoof charging a ghost ray between them as the tag team blast fired off like a nuclear blast destroying the remaining ones!

the little ghost smiled as he landed his legs reforming as he returned to living form smiling as he happily said, "And their goes the bones! No bones about it!" he then giggled.

unknown to him Vlad was watching form the ghost zone as he held his chin, "he is just as powerful as his father same humor not shocking as he had someone to teach him how to use his powers with all the same potential"

He then turned off the monitor.

Meanwhile back in ever free

Zeta was walking with Applebloom, "yeah there is a down side to this party all kinds of ghost are drawn to the area most not so friendly!" he said as he spotted his father holding energy blades slashing at what looked like a ghostly bat pony all green with it's wings and fore legs fused with a mouth full of gangs.

Danny roared, "DIE YOU FOAL EATING BASTARD!" he said as he slashed it in half.

AppleBloom fainted in to her boyfriends hooves, making the zebra blush so now he was black white and red all over.

the ghostly king laughed, "so cute! Now come on Son it's a big night coming next week a big one time to get ready go get your friends and step cousin going to be along one and one big gathering!"

he said vanishing as Zeta nodded as he carried Applebloom out of the forest.

Meanwhile

songbird was arriving in Ponyville off a train with phantom as she said, "A ghostly party gee should we bring a water melon or something?"

the phantom shrugged as they head off to see some ghost marking out place.

Mr cake walked out to look at the back endless walking on his front hooves green ghostly stallion and he gulped, "I am sorry but what are you doing in front of my store?"

the ghost said, "Simple man!" he was using his unicorn match to put a sticker on the shop, "in a week there is going to be a ghost parade this stickers mark out the route so in a week one hundred ghost will trot by your store!"

the baker fainted at the comment as the ghost continued on his way putting more and more stickers on place.

At the next place Scootaloo was thrilled about the ghost parade coming by her house her parents and aunts they just fainted.

Little Vlad who was beside her looked to them and said, "Still raciest!" he said taking on his ghost form and Scootaloo cuddled him, "yes but I am not! my love bug!" the half ghost blushed at it.

to be continued.
