Episode 1 Part 1: Starlight, Star Bright!

[The scenery and landscape brushed harshly as the wind across Ponyville wailed. The sky itself seemed near-to-pitch black, save for the dark thunder clouds that echoed across the landscape, and some of the stars that were shinning in the middle of the night. At the time, Fluttershy could be seen galloping under the woods, splashing a few puddles here and there. Like her other five friends, they were all planning on meeting at Twilight's house for a sleepover. This wasn't like anything the friends have had before, oh no. This would be their first, as Pinkie Pie put it, "All-friendly-friends-friendliest-friendship-sleepover". To put it in non-crazy terms, it was the first sleepover they had all together without leaving anybody out. It was alot harder than it sound as well. After all, they had to make sure there was no unexpected visits from anyone, everyone's schedules fit to match everyone elses on time, no one was busy managing their own seperate work, etc, etc. In fact, the end result of it, trying to get everything planned and ready to go on a scheduel that fit everyone's time, it took over five months until they all had free time on a single day...or at least, almost everyone.]

[Getting back to Fluttershy, she let out another shrill "eep!" in fright as another lightning bolt could be seen striking across the air, with loud drumming thunders echoing soon after. Despite everyone having time to be at the slumber party, Fluttershy only could make the time by speeding up her picnic she promised with the small forest critters that lived all across her yard and house. She didn't want to disspoint her friends, seeing how they all claimed that this was the only day they had any free time at all, but she didn't want to end up lying to her critter-sized friends either. And by the time she finally finished her picnic with her smaller friends, she quickly strapped on an umbrella hat to herself before dashing out the door into the rainy weather. Only a few seconds later did she let out another shriek, terrified at the even louder thunder drum in the sky,and quickly took shelter under a tree. Although it wasn't exactly wise to stand under a tree during a lightning storm, it was the only place to stay at least partially dry, and have a little, if any, protection from the rain. She began to pant somewhat exhaustingly, tired from all the galloping she did earlier.]

Fluttershy: *breathes exhaustingly* Huff...huff...next time I better make sure not to plan two things at once. *looks up to the sky* I hope the others forgive me for being late.

[Although the storm itself did terrify her at the moment, she gave a small, calming, smile at the sight of the stars at least shinning.]

Fluttershy: At least the stars are bright and pretty tonight. Esspecially that one, it's so big and beautiful! It's like it's actually coming right at me. *slowly changes expression from calming smile to worried frown as the star gets brighter* Wait a second...ahh! *quickly ducks down to avoid the oncoming ball of fire*

[By the time the blazing ball of fire past her, she looked back at the tree she hid under, in complete disblief and shock at how only a 1/3 of the tree remained, mostly being the stump, while everything from the belly up was burned away in a nice clear burnt outline of a large sphere. The mysterious ball of fire didn't seem to stop at that though, as upon further inspection, almost every tree behind her within twenty yards seemed to have burned away as well. Fluttershy, for one, was scared out of her mind at what she had just witnessed, feeling a mix of great relief that the ball of fire had missed her, and intense fear at the fact it came at her from out of nowhere. As shocked as she was, her attention suddenly shifted to a strange glowing light she saw in the ditch up ahead, which was created by the ball of fire which almost struck her.]

Fluttershy: *blinks curiously* What is that? *slowly and very cautiously walks over to the strange glowing object, then frowns slightly with worry and concern* Uh oh...

[The scene shifts to a view of Twilight Sparkle's (litterally) tree house as it slowly zooms in, quickly changing zoon after to a inside view of the small room. As expected, all the other ponies were already gathered, each of them lying on their own blanket, which almost matched their personality and traits as well. Twilight had a small rainbow design on hers with a rainbow growing from the star, Rarity appeared to have a fashionable design of different gem stones which glittered on her blanket, Applejack had her casual green blanket with Apple designs patterned on her blanket, Rainbow Dash's blanket had interesting array of lightning bolt symbols on her's which had rainbow colors in them, and Pinkie Pie...well...no one really understood hers to be honest. While everyone's blanket had one thing that represented them on their personality, Pinkie Pie had an array of different things on her's from sweets like candy and cupcakes, wierd patterned smiley faces, and a whole bunch of mumbo jumbo that pretty much anything you can picture for an overly-hyper-active-always-random pony. At the time, the group of five appeared to be playing some form of guessing game, with Pinkie Pie, unfortunately for them, being the host.]

Applejack: *sighs while lying on the floor, leaning her arm up wtih a hoof* Are you a bell?

Pinkie Pie: *chuckles while repeatedly hopping in place* Hmhmhm, nope!

Rarity: *rubs chin before guessing* Are you a Pogo Stick?

Pinkie Pie: *shakes head* Nope! Try again!

Rainbow Dash: *leans on hoof irritantly* Are you a moron?

Pinkie Pie: *chuckles* Teheheheh, you already guessed that seven times silly! Nope!

Rainbow Dash: *groans before rolling on back* Remind me again why we're playing 300 Questions?

Pinkie Pie: Because Twilight Sparkle said we could take turns picking games. And it's myyyy turrrrn!

Rainbow Dash: *looks irritantly at Twilight*

Twilight: *gives nervous and apologetic smile* Ehh heh heh, well...at least everypony else is having a good time...right?

Applejack: *looks to Twilight curiously* Speaking of everypony, has anypony seen Fluttershy yet?

Pinkie Pie: *raises right hoof* Oooh! I did!

Applejack: *looks back to Pinkie Pie* Really? When?

Pinkie Pie: *gives casual gleeful simle* This morning in town.

Rainbow Dash: *face-hoof's self while shaking head*

*knock*

*knock*

*knock*

All five: *look back to door*

Twilight: *smiles* Oh, that must be her now! *uses magic horn to open door*

[The camera pans back to the door as it opened, revealing a soaked to the mane Fluttershy as she walked in, breathing exhaustingly too. Curiously, she appeared to have a hump on her back which was covered with the small green blanket she brought with. What's more, she looked back at the green-blanketed hump on her back a bit concerned.]

Pinkie Pie: *continues bouncing up and down* Oh goody! You made it Fluttershy!

Fluttershy: *looks back to the group, nodding a bit* Oh, uhh yes, I am. I'm so sorry it took so long! I was just-

Rainbow Dash: *gives calm smile while shaking hoof* Aww don't sweat it girl. We understand.

Fluttershy: *frowns slightly* But-!

Applejack: It's ok Fluttershy, we were just worried about you. It's no biggie.

Fluttershy: Oh, ummm sorry about that. But something happened on the way-

Rarity: Honestly darling, it's quite alright.

Pinkie Pie: Yeah. Now let's continue playing! Only 147 question left!

Fluttershy: *gives quiet, barely louder shout* Waiiiiiiiit! *gives worried apologetic look after* S-Sorry I shouted.

Twilight: *blinks curiously while walking over* It's ok Fluttershy. What's wrong? *moves head to the side slightly, suddenly noticing strange hump on Fluttershy's back* Uhhh Fluttershy? What's that?

Fluttershy: *grows nervous while looking back* Well...that's what I was trying to tell you earlier. If you don't mind, that is.

Twilight: Why would I mind Fluttershy? *gives calming smile* C'mon, you can show us.

Fluttershy: *gulps nervously* Ummm ok...*pulls blanket off with mouth*

Other five: *widen eyes in shock*

[The camera pans back to the strange figure that appeared to be lying on Fluttershy's back. Although it couldn't be seen clearly due to the fact it covered it's face up with wings, due to the small size and the fact hoofs could be seen on it's hine legs, it was most likely suggested that it was a pony, a child at that. It had an interesting blend of orange on it's skin, while it's wings appeared somewhere in a mix of gold and light yellow. In addition to this, it also appeared to have a strange star-shaped cutie mark on it's sides. At the moment, however, the little pony appeared to be shaking quite a bit, though, it couldn't be determined if that was from the cold rain from outside, or simply being scared of where it was at the moment. The camera panned back to Twilight's surprised expression as all the other ponies walked over for a better look, with the exception of Rainbow Dash who simply fluttered over.]

Twilight: *continues looking in disbelief, but tries to look calm for small pony's sake* Oh! H-Hello there, what's your name?

?: *lifts wings only slightly, revealing pair of red colored, frieghtened, eyes*

Rarity: Fluttershy, where did you find this little one?

Fluttershy: I found him in the forest on my way here. I'm not sure how he crashed though.

Twilight: *raises brow confused* Crashed? What do you mean crashed?

Fluttershy: Umm sorry, but I don't exactly know how to explain it either. The last thing I remember was seeing this big fireball heading straight towards me. So I ducked out of the way, and when it crashed, I found him.

Applejack: *lowers head a bit, trying to get a peek at the young pony's hidden face* This little fella? A fireball? 'Gal, I'm sorry but this little tyke ain't no bigger than my little sis. *looks back to Fluttershy*

Rainbow Dash: *looks at him from above* I have to agree with Applejack on this. I've even seen campfires bigger than this pony.

Fluttershy: *droops ears slightly* Yeah...I get that and all. But it really is the truth. Y-You believe me Twilight, right?

Twilight: *tries giving innocent smile* Well...I'm not saying he maybe didn't crash, but how would he look like a ball of fire? He's just a pegasus by the looks of- *suddenly blinks while looking around the room* Hey...where'd Pinkie Pie go?

Other 4: *look around with same confusion*

?: *shifts eyes from side to side, looking around the room*

Pinkie Pie: *suddenly appears next to the pony's face with an excited teethy grin* HIIIIIIII!

?: *suddenly yelps in frieght* AHHHH! *begins shining entire room with magic horn*

[The camera suddenly zooms out in the room as the entire room began to illuminate with a glowing, shining light which practically enveloped the entire room! The scene takes a brief glance to the outside as the light could be seen shining through all the windows, even the ones on the top floors and seperate rooms. The camera panned back to the other room as the entire room was nothing more than pure white now, all thanks to the large flashing light in the room. Aside from Fluttershy, seeing how the pony was on her back, the rest of the gang turned their head away as well as covering their eyes a bit. All except for Pinkie Pie, who simply stared directly at the light with wide opened eyes. Interestingly enough, there seemed to be smoke rising from her eyelids.]

Pinkie Pie: *continues starring constantly wtih shrunk pupils* Ooohhhh...briiiiight...

Applejack: *struggles to look through the blinding light, but widens eyes at sight* He has a horn and wings?

Rainbow Dash: *groans a bit while trying to keep light out of eyes* Hey Fluttershy, not that the light isn't extremely interesting to look at, but can you tell him to turn it off!

Rarity: *looks to the side, noticing Pinkie Pie's constant stare* Pinkie Pie, doesn't the light hurt your eyes?

Pinkie Pie: *continues starring* What do you mean?

[The camera takes a moment to zoom in closer to her eyes as the steam rising from them could be seen intensifying. In addition to this, a loud sizzling noise could be heard, much like the one made from cooking over a frying pan.]

*ssssssssssssssssssss*

Pinkie Pie: *sniffs a bit while staring* Hey, is anyone else smelling fried eggs? *completely unaware as eyes burst into flames*

Twilight: *uses magic to lift blanket up and finally covers small pony, and blocking out the light*

[The camera zooms out as the light in the room finally begins to dim down enough. Fortunately, there didn't appear to be any damage as far as after results went.]

Pinkie Pie: *simply blinks to self while looking around the room with same wide-eyed state* Guys? Why did it suddenly get dark?

Rarity: *waves hoof in front of Pinkie Pie's face, then shakes head to Twilight*

Twilight: *rolls eyes a bit before looking at Fluttershy somewhat worried* Fluttershy, something isn't right here. Most ponies don't have unicorn horns or pegasus wings.

Rainbow Dash: *looks to Twilight briefly* Except for Princess Celestia and Luna, *looks back to Fluttershy again* and even then, I don't think either of them have kids.

Applejack: *rubs chin* Maybe the little fella's a distant relative of one of them. Ya know, like some Great Great Grandson or something?

Pinkie Pie: *looks to the side while smiling* Great point Applejack!

Applejack: *raises brow* Uhhh Pinkie Pie, I'm over here. *waves hoof*

Pinkie Pie: *blinks confused looking in other direction, then continues looking around* Twilight, you should consider getting some better lighting in here. It's pitch black!

Twilight: *stares at Pinkie Pie unammused for a few seconds before looking back to Fluttershy curiously* So Fluttershy, do you know anything about him.

Fluttershy: *frowns shaking head* Ummm sorry, but I don't know anything else. He's really shy and nervous. I couldn't get him to say anything no matter how nicely I asked.

Applejack: *whispers to Rarity* Sounds like a certain pony I know...

Rarity: What do you think Twilight?

Twilight: *rubs chin* Hmm...well, it's still a bit mysterious, but I could've sworn I've seen something like this in one of my books. *looks back to the rest* We should at least contact Princess Celestia first to let her know about this. *yells a bit louder* Spiiiiiiike! We need you to write a letter!

Spike: *can be heard while walking downstairs* Coming! I was just finishing organizing some of the books you wanted me to put away- *pauses suddenly noticing the strange pony's eyes from under the green blanket* Ummm who's that?

?: *widens eyes at sight of Spike* D-D-Dr-Dra- *suddenly pops out into the air, screaming terrified* DRAGOOOOON! *quickly zooms through room and into basement, inadvertantly spinning Rainbow Dash, and leaving a orange, shining dust-like trail in the air for a few seconds*

Rainbow Dash: *yelps while being spun out of control* Woooooaohhhhhhh! *reveals dizzy eyes while slowing down before falling down* Guhhh...*opens eyes again while looking around* Why's everyone...spinning? Nnhhh...*rubs head, feeling light headed*

Rarity: *looks at the slowly disappearing dust trail with interest* Ohhh, what a beautiful shine!

Spike: *blinks confused* Uhhh am I missing something here?

Twilight: *looks back to Spike* I'll explain later. Let's just follow him, the trail leads into the basement.

Pinkie Pie: Good idea! Let's go guys! *quickly dashes straight ahead, crashing into a wall in the process*

*CRASH*

Pinkie Pie: *wobbles a bit disoriented before standing on back hoofs, feeling around for the wall* Everyone, follow the sound of my voice. It's so dark in here, you can't even see the walls!

Applejack: *stares at Pinkie Pie as she feels around for a few seconds before looking questionably at Twilight* Errr if it's al'right with you, Ah think it'd be best if we stayed here with Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash to make sure they're ok. Besides, I reckon the little fell'a will be more frieghtened of us if we all came down together.

Twilight: *nods smiling* Good idea. Besides, we don't know what else he might be capable of. *starts heading to basement door*

Fluttershy: Oh, ummm be careful Twilight.

Rainbow Dash: Will someone please tell this room to stop spinning?

[The camera pans from the basement door as Twilight walks through down to the stairs of the basement itself. Around one of the work tables, the strange orange colored, golden winged, and, now that we can identify his mane color, red haired and tailed pony could be seen panicking as it looked around the room. Like anypony in this situation, he had no idea where he was at the moment, and he had no idea who all these strange ponies were that brought him here. He let out a startled gasp as he heard Twilight's footsteps getting louder as she continued walking down the stairs. Looking at his surroundings quickly, he quickly dashed under the work table, shaking a bit scared as he looked back out just as Twilight finally reached the bottom of the stairs.]

Twilight: *looks around the room curiously while walking* My little pony? My little pony, where are you? *looks around for a few more seconds before noticing small desk next to her* My little pony? *looks under the table, smiling finally finding him* Ah, there you are.

?: *yelps terrified, backing up into the wall* Ahhh! Stay away!

Twilight: *gives calm smile while lying on front heels* It's ok. I'm not gonna hurt you. My name is Twilight Sparkle. What's your's?

?: *frowns slightly looking down with drooped ears*...

Twilight: *waits few seconds for a response before tilting head curiously, raising brow* What's wrong?

?: *continues remaining silent*

Twilight: *thinks for a few seconds, rubbing chin, before getting a thought* Do you...remember your name?

?: *remains silent for a few seconds before shrugging*

Twilight: *frowns slightly sympathetically* Oh...sorry about that...*looks a bit closer at pony's horn, then blinks surprised at large crack from tip of it down to the base* Hey, what happened to your horn?

?: *looks back only briefly confused before looking at own horn, then shrugs*

Twilight: Hmmm...must've been from when you crashed, huh?

?: *remains silent like last time, simply shrugging*

Twilight: *sighs a bit before smiling* Wait one second. *quickly stands back up again*

?: *blinks in mix of confusion and curiosity, hearing strange shuffling noises from outside of desk*

Twilight: *continues making shuffling noises for few seconds before looking under desk again with calm smile* My little pony, can you come out here? I got something that can help.

?: *lowers head again a bit nervously*

Twilight: *gives small, calming smile* It's alright my little pony, I promise it'll help.

?: *continues remaining silent for a bit before cautiously and slowly stepping out from under the desk*

[The camera pans to the outside of the desk as Twilight could be seen using her magic to levitate a a small jar of some strange purple jelly-like substance, as well as a small knife. Scooping some of the small jelly carefully, she spread it across the horn of the little pony carefully, spreading it softly to keep the little pony from getting anymore scared than he already was, as noted by the shriveling. Once a good layer of the purple gel was applied, the camera pans to the small work table as a long green leaf looking slip of paper could be seen wrapping around the tip of the small pony's horn. After that was done, Twilight let out a small relaxed sigh, satisfied with her accomplished task, as she set the jar and knife back down.]

Twilight: Ah, there we go. This is a healing Herb used to mend injuries, but it should work on your horn too. Feel better?

?: *looks up to horn for few seconds before nodding*

Twilight: *gives calm smile* Ok, so now we just need to think of a name for you. *rubs chin a bit* Now lets see...*looks curiously at his cutie mark* You have a rather interesting cutie mark...and that light spell you used back there was pretty impressive for a young pony such as yourself...*clatters hoof against ground as if snapping fingers* Ah ha! I've got it. Why don't we name you...Starlight?

Starlight: *simply blinks to her with same drooped expression and shrugs*

Twilight: *gives calm smile* You remind me alot of Fluttershy. When we first met, she couldn't even say a single word to me.

Starlight: *remains silent for a bit before mumbling*

Twilight: *blinks curiously* What was that?

Starlight: Mhhhh...*mumbles rest while tapping food nervously*

Twilight: *puts ear closer to Starlight's mouth* One more time?

Starlight: *remains silent again before looking up nervously* Th...*looks away again* Thank you...

Twilight: *gives calm simply smile* Your welcome Starlight. Now, why don't we go meet the rest of the guys, huh? *begins walking back to the stairs before pausing and looking back, noticing Starlight still sitting there* Aren't ya coming?

Starlight: *lowers head slightly while looking away* Umm...ehhh...

Twilight: *sighs a bit before walking up behind Starlight, then starts pushing him ahead with head* C'mon, I promise they're all friendly.

Starlight: *simply sits while being pushed ahead* W-Well...Wh-What about the scary pink one?

Twilight: *rolls eyes playfully* If you mean Pinkie Pie, I can promise you a hundred bits theres nothing scary about her. Besides, don't let the others scare you. They're all nice. *continues pushing Starlight again*

Starlight: *gulps nervously* B-But what about the d-dr-dragon?

Twilight: Relax, he's just a baby dragon. There's nothing scary about him.

[Meanwhile, as the duo were just working their way up the stairs, the camera pans back to main floor as the gang could all be seen. At the moment, the still blind Pinkie Pie could be seen simply sitting in place next to a still somewhat worn out Rainbow Dash, who was still a bit out of it by the spinning she just went through. The only comfort she had to herself at the moment was the ice pack placed against her head. Although it only made her feel colder, it did at least give her a sense of feeling back into her bones, compared to the dull, light headedness she was going through earlier. The camera pans over to Spike as he could be seen just finishing up writing a letter to Princess Celestia, re-reading it to make sure it was accurate.]

Spike: *tips chin with quill while looking over letter* Ok, so basically we're suppose to tell Celestia we found a strange mysterious pony, one with wings and a horn, a bit red and orange here in color, and...*eyeballs particular piece of writing confused* Came down in...a ball of fire?

Applejack: 'At sounds about right. *looks to Fluttershy* Still a bit confused though on the Fireball bit though, Fluttershy.

Fluttershy: *droops head a bit uneasily* S-Sorry if it seems confusing, I mean it might s-sound hard to believe and all.

Rarity: After seeing such a dazzling trail left behind by the little pony, I wouldn't be surprised what he could do. *taps chin while looking up into thought* Although, it still confuses me why he might've dropped out of the sky to begin with.

Applejack: *looks back to Spike* Just send the letter as is and we'll sort out the rest later.

Spike: *simply shrugs to self before blowing fire on letter*

[Unfortunately, right at the moment when Spike took a deep breath, the door to the Basement opened up. As with many types of inconvenient timing, Starlight just happened to have the door open in front of himself just as Spike blew his massive breath of green fire, just a few feet away from him, but enough to starle the little pony either way.]

Starlight: *yelps terrified* Ahhh! *quickly dashes back down to basement*

Twilight: *watches as Starlight dashes under her legs and leaves, then groans rolling her eyes* For the love of...*walks back down to the basement*

Others: *look to each other confused before looking back to the opened door, hearing strange commotion*

Twilight: *can be heard mumbling down in basement for a few seconds, then comes back out a few seconds later, carrying Starlight by the tip of his wings in her mouth* *mumbles while setting him down in front of her, kicking the Basement door closed with her back hoof* Here he is.

Starlight: *shrivels a bit before backing up into Twilight's legs*

Applejack: *smiles while walking over* Well 'bout time we get a proper introduction. *tips hat off* Howdy there little fella', names Applejack. And you are?

Starlight: *looks to the side, still a bit nervous*

Applejack: *raises brow* What's wrong? Horsefly got y'ur tounge?

Twilight: He takes a bit to warm up to. As far as name goes though, he can't really remember his, so we decided to name himself Starlight.

Rainbow Dash: *shakes head, finally being rid of dizzyness, before flying over, looking down at the young pony* Hmm, sounds like a good name in my opinion. *points to self* The name's Rainbow Dash squirt, and the fastest Pegasus around.

Starlight: *shifts eyes to the side, still looking away a bit nervously, but mutters* H...Hi...

Twilight: *smiles down to him* See? All friendly here. *looks back ahead* Of course, you already met Fluttershy, the one that brought you here.

Fluttershy: *simply taps hoof side to side, looking away nervous* Ummm...Hello...

Starlight: *gives slight wave with hoof* Hi.

Rarity: *walks up casually* You can call muoi Rarity.

Starlight: *looks up to Twilight* I'm confused, is she Muoi, or Rarity?

Twilight: *chuckles* Heheheh.

Pinkie Pie: *waves in direction* And IIIIIIIIIIIIII'm Pinkie Pie!

Others: *look back at her, seeing her facing the completely wrong direction*

Twilight: Uhhh Pinkie Pie, we're over here.

Pinkie Pie: *continues looking around , still confused due to blindness*

Twilight: *rubs forehead with hoof from lack of surprise before looking back to Spike* And I believe you've already met Spike.

Spike: *smiles waving* Hiya! Sorry if I scared earlier. Not all dragons can contain strength as awesome as mine. *flexes right arm, though, not lacks muscle to prove*

Girls: *all chuckle to themselves*

Twilight: *smiles back down to Starlight* So Starlight, can you remember anything about your past?

Starlight: *frowns slightly shaking head* Not until I woke up in the forest. All I do know for sure was that I came from up there. *looks up, gesturing to the sky*

Others: *all look up*

Applejack: *confused* Pardon?

Rarity: *blinks curiously* Perhaps he's from Cloudsdale. Does he seem familiar to anyone from there, Rainbow Dash?

Rainbow Dash: *shrugs simply crossing front hoofs* Hard to say. I've seen Pegasi, and Unicorns on few occasions. But not a mix of both in Cloudsdale, or anywhere else for that matter.

Applejack: *rubs forehead, looking back to Twilight* Ah reckon it'd be best if we wait till mornin', then we can figure out who the little critter belongs to.

Fluttershy: *moans slightly* I hope his parents won't get too mad at me for bringing him here...

Twilight: *gives Fluttershy small comforting smile* Relax Fluttershy, if we just tell them what happened, I'm sure they'll understand.

Rainbow Dash: *does double take on the windows before widening eyes* Hey, uhhh how long was it since Fluttershy brought him in last night?

Rarity: *rubs chin while raising brow* Oh, I don't know, maybe an hour, two tops. Why?

Rainbow Dash: *points hoof to the window*

[As the camera zooms out, much to the older ponies shock, there was, indeed, daylight outside. The camera quickly panned over to the outside door as the ponies quickly ran outside, looking around the place in confusion. All, except for a Pinkie Pie who slammed into the wall first, then dazily wobbled outside with stars flying around her head. In addition to this, Starlight poked his head out nervously, being the first time to actually be outside since he was brought here. The camera zooms out to a full view of the tree and all around it. Aside from the gang themself, numerous other ponies were up and about in confusion, wondering what happened to their nice and peaceful night.]

Twilight: *blinks confused, looking up at the sky* Ooookaaaaaay...I'm pretty sure the sun went down about two hours ago.

Applejack: *yawns a bit while rubbing eye with hoof* Ahhhh, that and considerin' the sleepiness I still have would confirm it.

Rainbow Dash: *squints eyes a bit, looking up to the sun while partially covering eyes* Well, the sun's still up bright and early, maybe we just didn't notice the time go by?

Rarity: *stares up at the sky, partly surprised at sight* Uhhh Rainbow? There's just one problem.

Rainbow Dash: *looks back to Rarity curiously* What's that?

Rarity: *points to the sky* If the Sun's up now, why hasn't the Moon gone back down?

[The camera zooms out from the group as the rest of the ponies looked up towards the same direction as Rarity, including Pinkie Pie, which might have indicated her sight came back by this point. Sure enough, as the camera slowly zoomed up towards the sky, the camera revealed what appeared to be a full moon, still in the sky, peacefully as it should be, and just inches away, from the ponies' point of view, from the sun.]

Twilight: *raises brow* Ok...now this just got a whole lot wierder...and more confusing.

Pinkie Pie: Maybe it's a Solar Eclipse?

Twilight: *looks back to Pinkie Pie* The next Solar Eclipse isn't due for another several months.

Fluttershy: Ummm sorry, but ummm maybe it's less time than you thought. Ya know, if, you don't mind me saying.

Twilight: *gives calm smile back* It's ok Fluttershy, *looks back with same confused look to moon*but I'm positive we weren't due for one tonight. Besides, usually in an eclipse, the sun is suppose to be up first before the moon.

Pinkie Pie: *rubs chin before looking back to Twilight again* Maybe it's backwards this time!

Applejack: *squints eyes looking closer around the sun* Uhhh hey, I don't know if it's me, but does anypony else think the suns getting a bit bigger?

[The gang all looked around the sun from their angles before widening their eyes in surprise. As Applejack stated, although it was barely noticable by a first person point of view, the sun was indeed getting slightly bigger by the minute. As another notable feature, the shadows of the various objects, including the ponies themselves, were also moving farther, just inch by inch.]

Rainbow Dash: *widens eyes a bit in surprise and worry* Ok, that's DEFINITELY getting bigger!

Pinkie Pie: I could start a panicking party if you want?

Rarity: *sighs* I hardly think this is the best time to start any form of party.

Pinkie Pie: There's always a time to party!

Applejack: *looks back to Twilight* Twilight, I'm sure you read all about space 'n stuff. There's gotta be some reason behind al' this.

Twilight: *rubs chin with hoof* To be honest, I haven't really seen anything like this. It's not getting any hotter for the most part, and I think it'd be impossible to be something like a supernova.

Applejack: *raises brow confused* A soup-o'-what now?

Twilight: *looks back to supernova* A supernova, it's supposedly happens when the sun runs out of gas and explodes, *looks back to the sun* but that isn't suppose to happen for millions to billions of years from now. So the question is, what's going on?

Starlight: *speaks up from behind group* It's a falling star.

Others: *look back, somewhat in surprise*

Twilight: Starlight? *tilts head a bit curiously* How do you know it's a star?

Starlight: *frowns slightly nervous, looking down while patting right hoof side to side while shrugging* I...don't know.

Applejack: *frowns slightly* C'mon Star, anything you can tell us might help.

Starlight: *continues looking down a few more seconds before looking back, opening mouth to speak*

Spike: *starts bloating cheeks out a bit before burping out a cloud of green, mystic, fire* Blegh! *picks up note as it gently floats down*

Starlight: *yelps frieghtened* Ahhh! *quickly dashes back inside tree, slamming door behind him*

Applejack: *looks back to Twilight unsurprised* Ok, we really gotta start closing doors whenever he's around.

Spike: *opens up note while clearing throat, reading it* Eh hem, "Dearest Twilight, chances are by now, you are well aware of the falling star heading straight for us. As much as it pains me, I'm afraid I can not make a direct appearance at the time being, as much of Equestria is already in worry, and panicking, about the falling star as well.-

Pinkie Pie: *mutters to Applejack* I tollld you we should've started panickiiing...

Spike: *continues reading* -Although I can not help you directly, there is a way to stop the star from falling before any serious danger occurs. I would like for you to head to the top of Mt. Manegrovar, and look for the...? *raises brow curiously at word* "Horn of Constellations", and the rest will work itself out. I wish you the best of luck. Sincerely, Princess Celestia."

Applejack: *raises brow* Mt. Manegrovar? What kinda silly apple name is that?

Rainbow Dash: *looks back to Applejack a bit surprised* I've heard of that place! It's supposedly one of the tallest mountains in Equestria. It's said to go so high, it's above the clouds.

Pinkie Pie: Where'd you hear about it?

Rainbow Dash: One of the pegasus ponies went there one time by mistake during an annual Winter Wrap-up.

Rarity: *tilts head curiously* What happened?

Rainbow Dash: *looks back somewhat worried to Rarity* I don't know much of the details, but when a group of pegasi came back after finding her, *shrivels a bit from nerves* she was never the same again.

Fluttershy: W-Who's she?

?: *can be heard while falling in the background* Yeehaaaw-!

*CRASH*

Others: *look back to Derpy Doo who's crashed halfway into somepony's house*

Derpy: *chuckles a bit* Tehehe, guess I shouldn't try to tie a rope and fly at the same time, heheh...Heeeey, I don't remember my home being occupied...

Random Pony: *can be heard yelling from inside* What are you doing in my house?

Rainbow Dash: *looks back unammused* Does that answer your question?

Applejack: *blinks surprised* Wow, that actually is sayin' a lot thar.

Twilight: *sighs* Still, we don't have much of a choice. *looks back to Rainbow Dash* Rainbow, do you still know where exactly Mt. Manegrovar is?

Rainbow Dash: *nods* Yeah, from here to the peak, it's just a few hours away. But after what happened to Derpy, there's no way I'm flying by myself all the way to the top. *looks to Derpy* No offense Derpy.

Derpy: *chuckles* Hehheh, you said Derpy...wait...that's my name! Tehehehe.

Random Pony: *still heard from inside* Get out or I'm calling the cops!

Twilight: *gives calm smile* It's ok Rainbow Dash, it'll be safer if we stick together anyway. *looks back to rest* C'mon, everypony! Let's get to work! *starts walking off*

Applejack: *taps Twilight's shoulder* Ehhhh Twilight?

Twilight: *looks back confused*

Applejack: *gestures back to tree* What 'bout the little fella?

Twilight: *blinks curiously, looking back at Starlight who's looking back with his head slightly sticking out the door, still looking nervous* Oh, right...*looks back to rest* Well...we can't just leave him by himself. Maybe we could get someone to watch him while we're gone?

Spike: *continues looking at note* Actually Twilight, I think we're supposed to bring him with us.

Twilight: *looks back confused* What makes you say that?

Spike: *shows note* Cause that's what it says.

Twilight: *reads rest of note* "And P.S.: Please watch over the young pony you found at all costs, and please keep him safe". *blinks to self curiously* Huh...guess we should bring him along then. *looks back to the house* Hey Starlight-!

Starlight: *quickly shuts the door nervously*

Twilight: *sighs again before looking back to the rest of the gang* I'll just go talk to him. In the meantime, you guys should grab anything you think you might need. We'll meet back in 20 minutes.

Rest of the gang: *nod to her before running/flying in their own direction*

Twilight: *watches her friends leave before looking to the falling star somewhat worried* I just hope we have enough time...

[The camera pans to the sky as the view of the star slightly increases slowly. After doubling in size, possibly the size of an apple right in front of you, the camera pans back down slowly as it reveals the mane cast, including Starlight, walking along the side of a mountain trail half an hour later. In terms of ponies themselves, the gang were all questioning what they had to do to stop the star from falling, in addition to trying to figure out who the mysterious pony is. He didn't talk much to anyone aside from Twilight, mostly due to nerves from being in the middle of a mysterious place surrounded by strangers. The thought of it was more evident as Starlight simply walked next to Twilight's left side, looking back and forth occasionally at the other ponies nervously.]

[As for the rest of the mane cast, they could all be seen walking along the edge as well, with the exception of Rainbow Dash, who simply flew a few feet off the ground. Normally, she would fly a bit higher than she usually does. However, due to the closer-by-the-minute falling star, it was beginning to get slightly hotter around Equestria, and the higher in the sky, the hotter it got. At the same time, some of the ponies themselves were equipped with bags on their backs. Not much, just a sack or two out of all of them, with Applejack and Rarity carrying the tannish packs on their backs. The camera pans to Applejack's and Twilight's head as the two continued looking down at the still-scared Starlight.]

Applejack: So how's our...uhh..."little friend" here doing?

Twilight: *replies while still watching Starlight* Still a bit frieghtened for the most part. *looks back to Applejack* But it's wierd, ya know? Even for amnesia, he's scared as if he's never seen anypony like us before. *looks back down to Starlight* I'm really confused as to where he's from.

Applejack:*gives small smile to Starlight* Well, I reckon he'll be fine once we get this whole ordeal settled out. Hey Starlight, anything you remember from before?

Starlight: *frowns slightly simply shaking head before looking down*

Applejack: *looks back to Twilight curiously* Still not sayin' much, huh?

Twilight: *shakes head* Not really.

Applejack: So how did you manage to get the little fella to come with us anyway?

Twilight: I simply told him as it is. We had to go somewhere to stop the falling star. If he didn't come with us, we'd have to leave him behind with someone he doesn't know. Whether or not it seems like it, I think he's warming up to us a bit...at least...most of us.

Applejack: *confused* Wha'dya mean?

Twilight: *looks back to Applejack* I told him one of us would stay with him since he's more used to us. But he jumped at the idea of coming with all of us when I told him who.

Applejack: *blinks curiously* Who?

Pinkie Pie: *hums while hopping casually ahead of the duo*

Twilight & Applejack: *stare at her for a few seconds before looking back to each other*

Twilight: *looks at her unsurprised* Does that explain enough?

Applejack: *chuckles* Tch, heh heh, the little fella's scared'o her? Heh ha! If it's any consellation, I don't blame 'em, the pony scares me sometimes too.

Pinkie Pie: *looks back curiously while hopping* What scares who?

Twilight & Applejack: *quickly reply nervously* Nothing!

Rarity: *looks off to the left side, seeing the large mountain just over the cliff, then looks back to Rainbow Dash who's ahead of her* So Rainbow, what else have you heard of this "Mt. Manegrovar"?

Rainbow Dash: *looks back to her* Nothing good, esspecially when I asked around for more info about it. One of the Pegasi I talked to mentioned some sort of dragon here.

Fluttershy: *lowers head nervously while gulping* D-Dragon?

Rainbow Dash: *looks back to her* Well...yes and no, it's really hard to say to be honest. They said it "was" a dragon, and "wasn't" a dragon at the same time. I don't know, it was really confusing.

Rarity: *gives calm smile to Fluttershy* Don't worry darling, even if there was one, I find it hard to believe it would be resting here.

Rainbow Dash: *gives reassuring smile* Besides, you handeled a dragon by yourself before, *chuckles a bit* and even made him cry! We'll be fine.

Fluttershy: *still nervous* I-If you s-say so...

[The camera zooms out to a view of the group from the cliffside as the group could be seen passing on by. As they did, the camera suddenly began to steadily rise up, just as Rainbow Dash continued to keep Fluttershy reassured. Curiously enough, the camera stopped at the top of the cliff, next to a bunch of interestingly-shaped, aqua-colored, boulders, one of which had a strange spiky shaped top.]

Rainbow Dash: Relax Fluttershy-

[The camera suddenly zoomed in closer to the spikey shaped boulder as she continued talking.]

Rainbow Dash: -I doubt there'd be a stupid dragon around here anyway.

[The camera watches as a yellow eye suddenly appears to open up on the "boulder". The scene switches to a first person point of view of black and white color as the camera's view switches from the ground of the cliff in front of the strange boulder to the cliff side below it, looking at the group of ponies below. The camera zooms out from the boulder again as the camera reveals what appears to be a large blue, interestingly armless, dragon. Unlike the other dragons thus far, this one was "smaller" in terms of massive size, but was still sporting a good twenty foot tall hieght. It's belly even hung out a bit, being a lighter blue color than the rest of it, along with it's lower jaw. The only other noticable colors that seemed to come from it were the yellow eyes, thorn-like scales skimming down it's back down it's tail, and the yellow coloring on the claws. The brow on the large dragon seemingly narrowed in anger as it suddenly bashed it's head against the large boulder in front of it, purposely into the ponies path. The camera quickly pans back down to Applejack as she continued walking along the cliffside as normal. However, her attention quickly shifted to a noticable rock as it passed by the ground right in front of her, to the large cliffside on her right as her eyes opened in fear.]

Applejack: Avalanche! *quickly runs up ahead*

[The camera zooms out to the rest of the gang as they quickly looked up before running up along the cliff as well. Fortunately, all the ponies had seemed to move up ahead about 30 yards through the avalanche that was taking place.]

Twilight: *breathes exhaustedly while looking at the rest of the group* Is everyone ok?

Rarirty: *moans looking at partially cracked front hoof* Aside from a beautifully broken nail, I suppose.

Pinkie Pie: *simply reacts casually with smile* Me too!

Twilight: *sighs relieved* That's a relief. *looks back to top of cliff* Why the hay did the Avalanche suddenly happen anyway-

Applejack: *looks ahead with wide, worried, eyes* Twilight!

Twilight: *looks to Applejack briefly before looking in same direction worriedly too*

[The camera suddenly pans back to the middle of the avalanche where the group was earlier as the camera suddenly reveals Starlight, who was shaking in fear as he had his head burried beneath his hoofs in fear.]

Twilight: *panics* Starlight! *quickly teleports directly behind*

Others: *watch worriedly* Twilight!

Twilight: *pats back soothingly* Don't worry, I'm gonna get you out of- *suddenly jumps startled as large boulder crashes down left of her*

[Unfortunately, the very same event occured just behind her, on her right, and just a few feet away in front of her, just feet away from in front of him, and completely boxing the duo in. Hearing the strange whistling sound of something falling her attention suddenly shifted up, just as the camera switched to a first person point of view from Twilight's view. The last thing the camera watched was a large giant boulder suddenly crashing down upon it, followed by the echoed worried screams of Twilight's friends screaming "Twilight!". Unfortunately, no response came from pile of rubble that burried Twilight and Starlight...]
