Twilight Sparkle, along with her friend Star Universe, is on her way to the last day of school at Crystal Prep Academy.
Twilight is wearing a uniform of her school. It is a reddish-purple vest, dark blue tie, light blue blouse with gray cuffs, black shoes, reddish–purple tartan skirt and she wears glasses. She also wears a magenta 6-pointed star with white sparkle hairpin.
Star has brown hair, a light tan skin, and blue eyes. He is wearing a pendent that is shaped like a star, which is the color black like the universe, and it is shimmering. He is wearing a uniform of the school. Star is wearing a reddish-purple blazer, dark blue bow tie, black shoes, and dark-blue slacks.
"So Twilight, what are your plans for the summer?" Star asks.
"Well I'm going to spend time with my dog Spike, and maybe doing some reading, also spending time with Shining Armor and Cadence, what about you?" Twilight replies.
"I'm going to do stuff with my band and maybe we'll try to get some gigs for the summer and also maybe…" As Star Universe answers Twilight's question, he sees something that really caught his eye.
"Hey, what's that?" Star says. He starts heading towards a tree and see a strange small box in the hole of the tree.
"Hey Star, what's that you got there?" Twilight asks.
"It looks like some kind of box," Star replies.
"Hmm, do you think it has something inside?" Twilight asks.
"I don't know, but there's only one way to find out and that's to open it," Star replies.
"Maybe we should wait until we get to school," Twilight suggests.
"You're right we don't want to be late on the last day of the school year, and we're both going to be juniors next school year." Star replies.
With that Star put the box inside his backpack and follows Twilight to school before the bell rings. When they got to the school they went to their separate ways to their class schedule, and Star kept the box inside his bag until lunchtime.
During the time Twilight has Science and P.E. Star has Fashion Design and P.E. Twilight and Star have the same P.E class and instructor named Iron Will. During the past few days the students were doing their finals for the year. After that they went to empty out their lockers and going to the last day of school fair that is taking place in soccer field while lunch is being served in the cafeteria.
After their classes, school is officially over for the semester. Some of the students went to the cafeteria and some went to the soccer field for the fair. At that moment Twilight and Star Universe met each other at the cafeteria to have some lunch and then they were going to the fair, but first they want to figure out what's inside the mysterious box they found this morning.
After waiting in line, Twilight got a PB&J with some milk and a fruit salad while Star got himself cheese pizza, garden salad, and some water. When they found a table by the window, the first thing they did is checking out the box while having their lunch.
"Well Twilight, think we should open the box now?" Star asks.
"Yes, we won't find out unless we open it right." Twilight replies.
"Right," Star replies. At that moment Star opens the box and to their surprise it's a lotus blossom shaped rainbow crystal. Twilight and Star are amazed about what they found. Twilight couldn't believe when she got a closer look at it.
"I don't believe it, it's a real rainbow crystal!" Twilight says surprisingly.
"No way, this rainbow crystal looks very different," Star replies.
When Star starts holding the crystal he can tell that there's something special about it. When the sun shines bright on it, there's a beautiful glow of a rainbow all over the room. After that it lifts itself up in the air. It somehow transforms itself into a female body, and when it stops glowing the girl is revealed to be around the same age as Twilight. Her hair is very long almost close to her ankles a rainbow scale color of red, light orange, light yellow, cyan blue, light purple, pink, and white. She has pale turquoise skin and beautiful aqua green eyes. She is wearing a white toga and it is long enough to reach her ankles. At the middle of her chest is a rainbow crystal gem matching her hair color shaped of a lotus blossom.
The event caught the attention of the other students and they didn't know what to make of what they had witnessed. The girl tries to walk around but with the body she's not familiar made her too wobbly. She almost fell, but Star was able to catch her, then she stares at him for the longest time.
Star decides to break the silence, "Hello."
The girl hesitates at first, and then she says, "Hello."
Twilight comes up to Star and the girl and says, "Hello my name is Twilight Sparkle,"
"And I'm Star Universe," Star replies.
The girl wasn't sure at first, but since they are being nice she decides to tell them her name.
"My name is Rainbow Crystal."
All of the students were whispering to themselves about Rainbow Crystal's sudden appearance in the cafeteria. None of them had any idea of where she came from. All they remember is seeing a strange glowing rainbow light all over the room and when the light disappeared she suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
At that moment Cadence the school dean, Principal Cinch along with some other teacher are here to see what all the commotion is about.
"Twilight what's going on?" Cadence asks.
"To be honest, we don't know." Twilight replies.
