On a quiet day in the neighborhood, Twilight Sparkle and her puppy dog, Spike, are taking a nice ride on Twilight’s bicycle.
“Isn’t it a beautiful day for a bike ride, Spike?” Twilight asked.
“It sure is.” Spike said happily. “It’s a great way to get some exercise too.”
“What do you know?” Twilight jokingly said. “The only exercise you do is either working the television remote control or going to the fridge to sneak a snack.”
Spike blushed, knowing Twilight is right. “Touché.”
As the duo traveled around the town, they said hello to their friends.
“Hi, Twilight.” Sunset Shimmer called out.
“Hi there, Sunset.” Twilight replied. “I heard that you and Wallflower just came back from the city.”
“You bet. It was more fun when Ciesta Cat and Climber joined us.”
Rarity came by to join the conversation. “Hello, darlings.”
“Hi, Rarity.” Twilight greeted. “It’s nice that you got over that little cold.”
“Thank you, Twilight. At least my hair was no longer a mess from that rainstorm.” Rarity soon felt loved. “Thanks to Leora Lion and Snazzy.”
Twilight and Spike resumed their ride.
“It seems that these Enchantimals and their besties are a great help to all of us.” Spike said happily. “Did I hear that one of them helped you relax on the beach?”
“You bet.” Twilight said. “It was Jessa Jellyfish who helped me there.”
“Speaking of new friends,” Spike informed as he points to someone nearby, “look!”
The duo saw a mint green skinned girl with teal hair riding a blue bicycle. When Twilight saw the girl wearing a bike helmet designed like a turtle shell, she realized who it is.
“Hi, Taylee Turtle!” Twilight called out.
The girl named Taylee turned and saw Twilight saying hello. “Twilight Sparkle. Nice to meet you.”
Twilight rode up to meet Taylee. She parked her bike, and went over to talk to the visitor.
“Riding your bike around town?” Twilight asked.
“Yes, I am.” Taylee said happily. “This neighborhood is fantastic. And, very different for me.”
“Probably because you’re used to riding on the beaches of Wishing Waters.”
“You got that right.”
Taylee took out what looks like a turtle shell and places it down on the ground. Spike closely looks at the shell. Suddenly, a turtle head popped out and scared Spike. He ran to Twilight, and hid behind her. She then sees the turtle.
“Hi, Bounder.” Twilight greeted. “Taking a rest?”
The little turtle nodded. Taylee was then cleaning her basket, which had some confetti in it.
“Where did that confetti come from?” Twilight asked.
“That’s courtesy of your party hardy buddy: Pinkie Pie.” Taylee replied. “She gave us a greeting with her confetti cannon. But, Bounder got a bit scared, which scared Pinkie.”
“Was Pinkie upset for scaring your bestie?”
“She was. But, I calmed that girl down. I advised her to be careful on how to greet visitors.”
Twilight felt a little relief. At Sugarcube Corner, Twilight and Spike met up with Pinkie Pie.
“I did get upset seeing what happened to Bounder.” Pinkie admitted. “But, Taylee Turtle told me not to worry.”
“I guess there’s a time and place for your confetti cannon greetings.” Twilight figured.
Pinkie agreed. “But, that moment was not one of them.”
