This story is a sequel to My Little Pony: Friendship is Shining

Shining Armor is sent two tickets by Princess Celestia to The Grand Galloping Gala. Now he just needs to decide who he should take with him. The problem is that all five of his friends want to go. How will the stallion decide, and what will the mares do to try and persuade him.

(A story set in what I guess I'll call The Shiny-verse).

After reading a story to his little sister, Princess Celestia's student Shining Armor believes that the legendary Mare in The Moon is about to return. After disregarding his warning, the princess sends her student to a small town called Ponyville to look over preparations for The Summer Sun Celebration. There, he, his sister Twilight Sparkle, and young dragon companion Spike, meet some strange mares and odd fillies. How will he survive a town full of crazy ponies? And what will he do when it turns out he was right?

The story is inspired by the Twiley chapter of Crisis of Infinite Twilights written by Defender2222.

Now the first in what I'm calling The Shiny-verse
