Twilight Sparkle trotted over to the doorway of the library. It was a little early yet, but fillies will be fillies. Twilight opened the door to find a parasprite, a mini-Luna, a mini-Discord and Cheerilee outside of her home.

"Nightmare night, what a fright, give us something sweet to bite!" The fillies called in unison.

"Oh, my! Good costumes, ponies!" Twilight exclaimed. As she put treats in each filly's bag.

"Well, we're off. Thank you, Twilight Sparkle." Cheerilee said, smiling.

"Oh, you're welcome." Twilight said.

*Beep* *Beep*

Twilight closed the door and went to check on the noise.

A few moments later…

"Hello, Rainbow Dash!" Twarkle9's message popped up on Dashitall's screen.

"Heya, Twilight!" Came the response.

"You aren't going to do what you normally do on Nightmare Night, are you?" Twarkle9 typed warningly.

"No. I've been recruited by Zecora to help with her performance."

"Yes, tonight is the most special of nights. It is guaranteed to give you fright." ZecoraRemora added.

"Come on, guys! It's almost time to go! Where are you, Applejack?" PinkyPartyPony messaged impatently.

"It's an hour away. Hold your hooves, Pinkie Pie." AppleJackAttack typed.

"Pinkie Pie, is your costume ready? I know mine is." Rare Beauty boasted.

"Rarity, you coming with?" AppleJackAttack asked.

"Yes, I will be accompanying you. Is Princess Luna going to be there?" RareBeauty asked.

"She should be. It's her party anyway." Twarkle9 answered.

"What is everypony dressing up as? I'm going as a paper bag!" DerpyDerp typed enthusiastically.

"Isn't that what you went as last year?" Dashitall asked.

"Well, yeah. The costume still fit, and it's my favorite!"

"Right. Well, I'm going as a ninja! I'll be in the shadows, hunting candy." Dashitall typed.

"I'm going to be a balloon! From the sky, I will prey upon all of the sweets!" PinkyPartyPony informed.

"I'll be going as Doctor Trotson!" Twarkle9 said happily.

"Who?" Dashitall asked.

"Come again?" AppleJackAttack messaged.

"Again? Doctor Trotson, assistant to the greatest detective of all time?" Twarkle9 prompted.

"But, Daring Do doesn't have an assistant…" Dashitall stated confusedly.

"I GIVE UP!"

"Pinkie, is it time to go yet?" AppleJackAttack asked.

"Two minutes, thirty four seconds…" PinkyPartyPony typed back.
