//------------------------------// // Chapter 5: To Camp Everfree We Go // Story: The Princess of Harmony // by Pinkie Pie Sweets //------------------------------// The next day, early in the morning. All the students who are going to Camp Everfree are having breakfast in the cafeteria. Anyone who are going are very excited, and can't wait to have some summer fun. On one of the large tables, Sun and her friends are having breakfast as they talk about the fun they're going to have. Pinkie says, "We are going to have so much fun when we get to Camp Everfree." "What are we going to do there?" Sonata asks. "I hope we get to do some rock climbing," Rainbow says with excitement. "I would love to take a morning nature walk," Fluttershy quietly replies. "I definitely like to explore the forest," Sun says. Fluttershy giggles and says, "That's what nature walks are for." "I know. I just want to go exploring so we can find some cool sites and different plants and animals," Sun happily says. Then Falling Star says, "There might be places that we might not be able to go on our own or not at all." "You do have a point," Sun agrees. "Come on, what's wrong with a little danger once in a while," Rainbow Dash says. Then Rarity firmly says, "I think we've been through enough danger, conflicts, and adventures quiet enough." "What kind of adventures and danger did we have so far?" Rainbow asks with a smile. "The Fall Formal when we met Princess Twilight and had to fight the Pony version of Falling Star who turned into a she demon and hypnotized the students into her army," Applejack firmly answers. "The Musical Showcase my sisters and I changed into a Battle of the Band so we could absorb negative energy, and battled Black Stone the evil merpony sorcerer," Sonata adds. "Don't forget the Anon-a-missinsident before winter break ad Sun had to solve a friendship problem in Equestria," Fluttershy shyly adds. Then Twilight says, "Let's also not forget about the Friendship Games where I accidently stole your magic and turned into a magical creature that want to learn about magic almost destroying both worlds in the process." "And when I was blasted by magic and turned into a magical vengeful creature who wanted to get revenge on my old school for bullying me," Falling Star adds. Rainbow groans and says, "Okay, okay, I get it. We've been through a lot this year." "And we might end up with more in the near future," Rarity adds. "It's like Canterlot High has become a magic magnet or something like that," Sonata replies. "Not sure about that, but since we have magic, we're the only ones who can keep the magic or any magic user under control. As long as magic is around, the people are not safe, and it's my job to be sure magic gets under control and stop anyone from using," Sun says sounding a bit serious. Adagio chuckles and says, "Spoken like the true Princess of Harmony to me." "Not to mention as Protector of the Human World," Aria adds. "She's right about that… Princess Sun," Applejack replies, winking her right eye at Sun. Sun begins to blush after hearing her friends referring to her new title. "Thanks guys, but you don't have to call me princess or anything like the royal stuff," Sun replies, feeling a bit embarrassed. "You are a princess now, Sun. Embrace it!" Rarity says, with enthusiasm. Then Rarity says, "I'll tell you, if I was a princess with a fabulous crown, I will never take it off. Why I'll sleep with the thing." "Yeah… I'm not going to sleep with a crown on my head," Sun replies. Then Pinkie happily says, "Maybe you're not." Pinke then takes the crown from Sun's bg, and says, "Beside, princess or not, you're always going to b our friend, and our princess too." "Thanks Pinkie," Sun replies, giggling a bit in the process. Hearing Sun giggling, the girls begin to giggle as well. Then Aria asks, "So what do you think is in that chest of yours?" "That I don't really know, but I don't think I'll be finding the key alone. Also, whatever is in that chest, I'm sure it will be very special," Sun answers with a calm smile. The girls simply nods their heads in reply. Just then, they hear Principal Celestia's voice saying, "Attention students…" Sun and her friends, along with all the students who are going to trip look so see Principal Celestia, Vice Principal Luna, and Discord are at the front door leading to the cafeteria. The Principal Celestia, says, "The buses are here now, and we only have a half hour before e leave for our school trip." "My sister and I are proud of you that you were all able to raise enough money for this Summer Trip to Camp Everfree," Vice Principal Luna adds. "We open that you will have a wonderful summer after our trip and we'll be able to see you again in the fall. Make sure you all are prepared for ou trip. We'll start going on the bus at 7:50am and will be leaving to camp at 8:00 am," Principal Celestia happily adds. "Okay!" The students loudly reply. Hearing that, everyone continue having their breakfast, and their conversation. After their breakfast, everyone are making some last minutes preparations for heading off to their school trip. After getting ready, all the students and the three chaperons are on the bus and are ready to go. Principal Celestia who is sitting in the front says, "Alright students, it will be an hour so so before we get to the camp so I hope you remember to have everything you need." "Are you all ready to go?"Vice Principal Luna asks. All the students begin o cheer and are excited about going to the camp. Of course, everyone are all dressed for the camping trip too. With, the bus closes, starts the engine, and drives away from the school. Everyone are very excited about going to the camp, and now they're on their way, especially Sun and her friends. What Sun and her friends do not know, is that their camping trip is going to be one that they won't forget.
