Jimmy Hook Celebrates...

by Discord The Narrator


Hearth's Warming Eve

The Temple of Ponhenge had always been one of the most calm locations from Equestria. Only one shadowy problem dared to cross the sacred barriers, but the Pillars took care of it a long time ago.

Seated on the center of the circle made with rocks, there was Starswirl the Bearded; his eyes closed as he did some meditation; his mind full of calmness until a sudden sound disturbed him.

"Gah! Who is there?" he said, opening his eyes and looking around, spotting the source of the sound: Derpy had crashed on the ground, and a few letters fell around her, "Oh... How are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling good, sir! I was just reading one of the letters when I suddenly found the ground!" Derpy said.

Starswirl tried not to roll his eyes as he talked back, "Well, it could have been worse. Anyways, why are you here?"

"Oh, I almost forgot! Let me see..." Derpy looked at every single letter out of her bag until she found the right one, "Here! This letter is for you!"

The leader of the Pillars used his magic to levitate the letter towards himself, opening it to read the contents. As he finished, a smile appeared on his face.

"This Jimmy Hook has come with such an interesting idea..."


Inside Ponyville's theater, the female Bat Pony and Silverstream were making some preparations for the final show, as they along with three other ponies and Ocellus, who also volunteered to participate, would do the tale of how Hearth's Warming Eve was originated.

Sweetie Belle and Ocellus were exchanging quotes of their scripts for practicing, with the former having a bit of a problem with a word, but it was quickly solved.

"You think they will do it, Jimmy?" Silverstream asked.

"Well, if Starswirl allows them, of course. But yeah, it would be cool to have them here," Jimmy answered.

"I also believe it would be a nice thing..." Jimmy and Silverstream heard a peaceful voice and turned around, facing two well-known mares.

"Meadowbrook! Somnambula! I take he let you come here, right?" Jimmy said.

"He sure did. And I have to say yours is one of the best ideas. It has been a millennium since the last time I performed in this show," Somnambula replied.

"Wait, you also participated in it?" Jimmy asked.

"Of course. Chancellor Puddinghead is my favourite character," Somnambula answered, making Jimmy smile as she had seen her dream coming true.

"I'm feeling curious: who will be the narrator?" Mage Meadowbrook asked.

"Yours truly! I'm really good with it," Spike said, flying besides them, "Oh, and this time we'll have two narrators!"

"Two narrators? Who's the other one?" Silverstream asked.

"Well, there she is!" Spike said, pointing somewhere. Everyone looked to see the second narrator, who was Ember covered with her armor, "Let's just say I heard she has a good voice for narrating."

Ember chuckled, "Oh, it's nothing. Just reading a tale for a celebration. But yeah, my voice is a good one."

Finally, the set was complete, and Jimmy couldn't be more happy.

"So, what do you think? What is next, Jimmy?" Silverstream asked.

"Well, get some practice, everyone! It's time to make a show!" Jimmy said, smiling as they took their costumes.


Later, when the long-awaited time arrived, ponies started to enter the theater, along with other creatures who wanted to know what Hearth's Warming Eve was all about. Silverstream noticed her friends were also there, while Jimmy saw Twilight and the others.

Everything was on its right place, and the narrators were ready to start.

"Are you feeling nervous, Silvy?" Jimmy asked, making the Hippogriff giggle.

"Not nervous, but excited! This is going to be so much fun! I'll try to stay in character though," Silverstream answered.

"Heh, ok then! Let's see how it goes!"

Jimmy gave a signal to Spike and Ember, and they started narrating the story as the curtain opened...


The show went with not a single problem, and got to its end, when Jimmy and the others got together for singing a song. They stayed on the stage for talking a bit as the rest of ponies and creatures left, with Rarity telling her friends about how Sweetie's disguise suited her so well, while Ocellus and Silverstream reunited with their friends.

"Thank you so much for your help. You two have done a nice job!" Jimmy told Somnambula and Meadowbrook.

"Thank you for telling us about this. Being Chancellor Puddinghead once again has been fun for me," Somnambula said, feeling happy.

"If you ever need us for another play like this one, don't hesitate to tell us. We'll be glad to hear about you," Meadowbrook added with a smile.

Jimmy laughed, "No problem with that!"

Then, the Bat Pony moved beside Silverstream, and they shared a hug as the others stared at the happy couple.


Unknown to every creature in Equestria, inside a library, a book shoke a few times, until it finally opened. The air in the room went somewhat colder as an Unicorn emerged from its pages.

An Unicorn everypony knew so well.

An Unicorn who had her own quote.

"Say goodbye to the holiday..."
