Prologue
Edit
Story time!
"Once upon a time..."
in the magical land of Equestria,
there were two regal sisters who ruled together and created harmony for all the land. To do this,
the eldest
used her unicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn.
The younger
brought out the moon to begin the night.
Thus, the two sisters maintained balance for their kingdom and their subjects, all the different types of ponies.
But as time went on,
the younger sister became resentful.
The ponies relished and played in the day her elder sister brought forth,
but shunned and slept through her beautiful night.
One fateful day, the younger unicorn refused to lower the moon to make way for the dawn.
The elder sister tried to reason with her,
but the bitterness in the young one's heart
had transformed her into
a wicked mare of darkness
...
Nightmare Moon!
She vowed that she would shroud the land in eternal night.
Reluctantly, the elder sister harnessed
the most powerful magic known to ponydom:
the Elements of Harmony!
Using the magic
of the Elements of Harmony,
she defeated her younger sister
and banished her permanently in the moon.
The elder sister took on responsibility for both sun and moon,
and harmony has been maintained in Equestria for generations since."
The book, that shows the Elements of Harmony.
Hmm, Elements of Harmony...
"I know I've heard of those before..."
"...but where?"
Twilight Sparkle's discovery
Edit
"There you are, Twilight!"
Twinkleshine,Lemon Hearts, and Minuette talking to Twilight.
"Moondancer is having a little get-together in the west castle courtyard."
"You wanna come?"
"Oh, sorry, girls..."
"I've got a lot of studying to catch up on."
Awkward...
"Does that pony do anything except study?"
"I think....she's more interested in books, than friends."
"I know I've heard of the Elements of Harmony."
"Hi, Twilight!" greets Lyra Heartstrings.
Hey, where ya going'?
The top of Twilight's tower. The image is upscaled in the source.
Wait for it...
Ouch.
Spiiiiike!
Ow....
Twilight: "There you are. Quick, find me that old copy of Predictions and Prophecies."
"Well, it was a gift to Moondancer, but..."
I am not amused, book.
Twilight, using magic to pick up a book.
"No."
"No...no..."
"No. No. No. No!"
"Spike!!!"
"Over here!"
Spike, be careful up there.
Spike, face flat on the floor, ouch.
Books :(
Flipping pages through the book.
"'Elements of Harmony... see: Mare in the Moon'?"
"But that's just an old pony's tale."
"Aha!"
Twilight reads the myth of the Mare in the Moon.
Nightmare Moon.
Uh-oh.
"Spike! Do you know what this means?"
AHHHHHH
Uh?
"Take a note please, to the Princess."
"... We are on the precipice of disaster!"
"Preci... Preci...?"
"Threshold."
How exactly do you spell that Twilight.
?
"Brink?"
Spike, not so sure of what to write.
Uh...
"Ugh, that something really bad is about to happen!"
-I got this-
"For you see, the mythical Mare in the Moon is in fact..."
"Nightmare Moon! And she's about to return and bring with her eternal night!"
"Something must be done to make sure this terrible prophecy does not come true. I await your quick response. Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle."
"Great! Send it."
"Uh, I dunno, Twilight, Princess Celestia's a little busy getting ready for the Summer Sun Celebration. And it's like, the day after tomorrow."
"That's just it, Spike!"
"It's imperative that the Princess is told right away!"
Sending the letter off to Princess Celestia.
"There, it's on its way. But I wouldn't hold your breath..."
"The Princess trusts me completely."
"In all the years she's been my mentor she's never once doubted me."
"See? I knew she would want to take immediate action."
*cough*
"My dearest, most faithful student Twilight. You know that I value your diligence and that I trust you completely."
" ...but you simply must stop reading those dusty old books!"
Arriving in Ponyville
Edit
"My dear Twilight, there is more to a young pony's life than studying."
"So, I'm sending you to supervise the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration in this year's location..."
"Ponyville!"
"And I have an even more essential task for you to complete:"
"make some friends!"
Spending time with non-teacher Ponies, nothing good can come of this...Right?
"Look on the bright side, Twilight. The Princess arranged for you to stay in a library. Doesn't that make you happy?"
"Yes, yes it does. You know why? Because I'm right!"
"I'll check on the preparations as fast as I can, then get to the library to find some proof of Nightmare Moon's return."
"Then... when will you make friends, like the Princess said?"
"She said to check on preparations. I am her student, and I'll do my royal duty."
"But the fate of Equestria does not rest on me making friends.""
"Thank you, sirs."
Spike: "Maybe the ponies in Ponyville have interesting things to talk about."
^_^
"Come on, Twilight, just try!"
"Hello?"
*gasp*
Wait, what?
"Well, that was interesting all right."
*sigh*

Looking down at the checklist.

A beautiful setting.
Meet Rarity.
Rarity, deciding on which ribbon to use.
"No... no... no..."
I think someone's hooked.
"How're my spines? Are they straight?"
"Just a moment, please! I'm 'in the zone', as it were."
"Oh, yes!"
Perfect ribbon choice
"Now how can I help yo-AAAAGH!!!"
"Oh my stars, darling! Whatever happened to your coiffure?"
"I'm just here to check on the decorations, and then I'll be out of your hair."
"Out of my hair? What about your hair?"
Just walk this way and I'll fix you right up
"Too green!"
Too yellow.
"Too poofy!"
"Not poofy enough."
"Too frilly."
"Too... shiny."
"Now go on, my dear."
Yes, perfect look!
"You were telling me where you're from."
"I've... been sent..."
Uh Twilight, your eyes?
"From....Canterlot....to..."
Yikes.
"Canterlot?!"
"Oh, I am so envious!"
"The glamour!"
"Sophistication!"
"I have always dreamed of living there!"
What were you saying Canterl - I mean Twilight?
"We are gonna be..."
"...the best of friends, you and I..."
"Emeralds?! What was I thinking?"
"Let me get you some rubies!"
"Quick! Before she decides to dye my coat a new color!"
Meeting Fluttershy/The Songbird Chorus
Edit
"Focus, Casanova!"
Chirping?
What's over there?
The musical chorus
"Oh my. Um, stop please, everyone, umm."
Meet Fluttershy.
Being her polite self.
"Excuse me, sir? I mean, no offense, but your rhythm is just a teeny-tiny bit off."
A one, a two, and a three.
Ah!
Hello up there
Those birds can sure sing well.

So, what's your name?
I'm well..um.
"Didn't quite catch that."
"My name is... Fluttershy..."

Peeking through her mane.

He's sooo cute!
I'm talking to a dragon! Awesome!
It's just too awesome! <3
I wanna know absolutely everything!
This is gonna be a long walk.

Maternal side
I should tuck him in...
That's all right, but you can go now
Meeting Pinkie Pie/The welcome party
Edit
Peace at last!
Twilight derping in the darkness
A party is going to start momentarily.
"SURPRISE!"
Ah, random streamer!
So much for quiet...
"Surprise!"
"Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie, and I threw this party just for you!
"Were you surprised?
"Were ya? Were ya? Huh huh huh?""
You'll love my parties in the future!
What kind of party would this be
...if it was quiet?
Duh!
Boring!
"You see, I saw you when you first got here, remember? You were all, hello, and I was all--"
{gasp}
"Remember? You see I never saw you before."
"And if I never saw you before that means you're new, 'cause I know every pony."
"And I mean every pony in Ponyville, and if you're new, then it meant you haven't met anyone yet."
Twilight gets a drink
"And if you haven't met anyone yet, you must not have any friends, and if you don't have any friends then you must be lonely, and that made me so sad, and I had an idea, and that's why I went {gasp}"
Note a certain pony "derping"
"'I'll just throw a great big ginormous super-duper spectacular welcome party and invite everyone in Ponyville'. See? And now you have lots and lots of friends!"
So many new friends!
Water... WATER!
Too much hot sauce.
Uh oh, is she gonna evo...oh wait, wrong show.(lol)
Twilight bolting off to her bedroom.
What did Twilight drink anyway?
... it's hot sauce...
Hot sauce goes well on... cupcakes...?
Pinkie being herself...
... she actually ate it...
"What? It's good!"
Twilight's Room
Edit
"All the ponies in this town are CRAZY!!!"
Twilight mocking Spike.
Twilight, a pillow on her head.
"Ugh, here I thought..."
"...I'd have time to learn about the Elements of Harmony."
"But, silly me."
"All this ridiculous friend-making..."
"...has kept me from it!"
Twilight is not amused by the ponies in Ponyville.
Oh no, that is not a good sign.
An ominous sign...
"I hope it really is just an old pony tale."
Nightmare Moon
Edit
A happy, cheerful Pinkie Pie.
The first appearance of the Mayor of Ponyville
Twilight knows what will happen.
"Ready?"
Excited ponies.
Excited Sweetie Drops.
Nightmare Moon escaping.
The moon.
Rarity brings out...wait...where's Princess Celestia?
Okay...
Pinkie with wide eyes.
Le gasp!
Twilight's fears were founded after all
Nightmare Moon makes her entrance.
Hello, my little ponies... I am BACK!
Everypony is shocked.
The Cutie Mark Crusaders' early bird cameo.
Taste the rainbow tail!
Oh wait, you're serious. Let me laugh even harder.
"Why, am I not royal enough for you? Don't you know who I am?"
"Ooh, ooh, more guessing games!"
Even in a bad situation, Pinkie is her cheery self.
"Black Snooty! Black Snooty!"
This is SERIOUS, Pinkie.
Applejack stuffed Pinkie's mouth, and biting Rainbow's tail.
Talking to a scared Fluttershy.
You should fear me...
Did you not see the signs of my return?
What did you just say?
I know who you are!
Twilight in the awkward spotlight.
Nightmare Moon,laughing.
Ha! You fools!
"Remember this day, little ponies, for it was your last."
"The night will last..."
"...forever! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Twilight, knows this won't end well.
