Christmas has come once again to the city of Canterlot, and everyone was excited to share in the upcoming festivities of the holiday. Gifts would be shared, laughter would be heard, and people would eat, drink, and be merry.

But one day at Crystal Prep, when the Shadowbolts realise that Sugarcoat is far less than happy with the traditions and joy of the season, they swoop to her aid and try to find a way of helping her smile once again.

During an otherwise ordinary bus ride on the way back from the Friendship Games, Indigo Zap and her friends reflect upon what they have seen and experienced.

Until one of them has an unsettling realization about the very moral fibre of their characters.
