Cadance And The First Fallen Leaf
It was nearly time for fall to start in Equestria. Princess Celestia is getting everything ready to start the fall season. "This year," Princess Celestia thought to herself, "Fall will be one of the best time of this year." She is determined to make that possible.
Right now, she is preparing some of the earth ponies to go stampeding through the forest so that the leaves will fall off the trees. "It's time for the leaves to come down," one earth pony said.
"You're right there," another earth pony said, "Who are you?" It took some time for the earth ponies to get ready. "Hold on," Princess Celestia said to the ponies, "Your time will come soon. Don't worry." The ponies cooperated with Princess Celestia.
Meanwhile, Cadance was enjoying the view of the brown forest. "Wow," she thought, "I can't believe fall will start soon. I can't wait for it! Uh, actually, I can. Never mind." She then looked at the brown leaves on a certain tree, which was close to her.
"Wow," she thought, "These trees look pretty when their leaves are brown." She liked the colors of the leaves. "I wonder how this is possible," she thought.
Then to her surprise, one leaf's stem had broken off of the tree and the leaf itself started to fall.
Cadance watched in amazement. "Wow," she thought as the leaf continued to fall until it touched the ground right in front of her. "I didn't know leaves can fall on their own," Cadance thought, "I thought ponies can make them fall. This is one unique experience."
Cadance stared at the fallen leaf for as long as possible. "Hi there," she said to the leaf, "Why did you fall first?" Of course, the leaf did not answer her question. "Oh well," Cadance said, "I'll let you find out on your own." She still got no answer from the leaf. But Cadance still stared at the leaf no matter what.
Soon, it was time for the ponies to stampede through the forest nearby. Their stampeding caused all of the leaves to fall of the trees. Because of the vibration, the tree in front of her shook and all of its leaves fell to the ground. Instantly, the leaf that Cadance was staring at disappeared into the other leaves.
"Hmm?" Cadance thought, "I wonder what has happened. Oh well. I'll never find out." Cadance then left.
Some time later, Cadance returned to Princess Celestia. "Hello, Cadance," Princess Celestia said with a smile. "Hi," Cadance said, "I'm back. Fall is starting?" "Fall has started," Princess Celestia said. "Oh boy!" Cadance said. "We'll all have a good time," Princess Celestia said.
"I know!" Cadance said. So, in no time at all, fall has started for the season. Now everypony was happy. But Cadance was even more happier than every other pony. But she has never forgotten that first fallen leaf.
