Twilight opened her eyes slowly, taking a few moments to locate her surroundings, where she was and who was infront of her. 
A pair of blue eyes stared her straight in the face, a smile below them. “Goood morning sleepyhead!!” 
“Pinkie Pie? What are you doing in the library so early?” Twilight rolled away from Pinkie, allowing herself to climb out of bed. 
“I just heard some excellent news!” Pinkie burst out, jumping around the top floor of the library like a lunatic. 
“What is it?” Twilight levitated a brush over to her using her horn, brushing her hair as she watched in the mirror. 
“There's somepony new coming to Ponyville! And it's my job to greet them and welcome them and play with them and become super duper best friends with them! Oh my gosh this is gonna be so fun! I can't wait to show them sugar cube corner, oh and!-” 
Pinkie's rant was mumbled when Twilight put her hoof in Pinkie's mouth to silence her. After a few seconds of incoherent “mm”s and “nn”s Pinkie finally gave up on speaking and closed her trap. 
“I'll come with you then, I'll see if they like books.” Twilight nudged Pinkie, and together they walked outside the library. “So where are they going to be?” 
“Just over there!” Pinkie pointed with one hoof over the hill. The sun sparkled, blocking out the figure. Twilight squinted, not sure what to expect. 
Hell, she was ready for pretty much anything short of a Goddess to be over that hill. But not this. Twilight sighed as her ears fell down. 
“See?!” Pinkie asked excitedly. She pulled Twilight over to the new pony. 
In front of the two was a brown earth pony, with black hooves and a black mane. Pinkie was beaming, waiting for it to say something. 
So she waited
And waited a little longer. 
“Time for plan B!” Pinkie disappeared, leaving the two ponies for just a second while she brought back a familiar wagon. 
The brown pony watched with glazed over eyes as the welcome wagon's display played out in front of it. 
“To ponyville today!!! Wait for it...” Confetti blasted out of the oven on the wagon, leaving the pony very confused. It bent it's head down, chewing idly at some grass.
“Pinkie I can't believe you pulled me out here so I could meet a horse.. I'll have to go tell Princess Celestia about this.” 
Pinkie Pie frowned. “You really think it's a horse? B-But I was so excited to meet a new pony.. can't I just try to make friends with her? Pleeeeeeeeeeease?”
Twilight sighed, her ears flattening and her neck craning lower towards the ground. “You remember why we don't have these guys around any more. Princess Celestia gave the secrets of the old world to just the bearers of the elements of harmony, so we have to get rid of this thing before people get curious about it. It's the way it has to be.” 
“The old world sounded fun!” Pinkie commented, inspecting the passages of the horse's ear. 
“You remember what she told us, right? When the Goddess Alicorns came down from the other world and annihilated the human race so we could thrive, we were meant to make sure all of the horses were gone so just we were here. It's her royal decree.” Twilight turned to make her way to the Library. Pinkie pulled the horse along with the two. 
“Why don't we ask Princess Celestia nicely if we can keep it?” 
“Because, as of 2012 both humans and horses were banished to the sun. That's also why we threw out all their technology. I don't think you understand Pinkie, the humans were flawed and unclean.” 
“Unclean, unwanted? That's what she said right? Unclean, unwanted, unnecessary..” Pinkie felt her hair deflate a little. 
“Exactly. The humans were a sick species, that's why they all burned.” 
“And the horses have to go too? Why's that..?” Pinkie and Twilight pulled into the library. 
“Well don't tell the Princess I told you this,” Twilight brought over a pen and parchment. “But she doesn't trust them personally. Besides, you've seen how much of an ancient race they are, can't even speak. There's no hope for them.” 
“But we're meant to tolerate everyone aren't we?” Pinkie asked as Twilight gave the parchment to Spike to send away to the Princess.
“I thought that died out along with that stupid sub culture the humans made.”
“But the bronies were really nice to us..” Pinkie left the horse inside as she began to back out the door. 
“They had insulted our queen using their horrible 'internet' thing. That's why we got rid of them first. Not to mention how they had demeaned you.” 
“I think it was nice of them!” Pinkie Pie insisted, pushing herself forward so she wasn't completely out of the door. 	
“Look, Pinkie, we can find another element of laughter if you mess up.” Twilight hissed in her ear. “Celestia has ears everywhere, you'd be careful to keep your trap shut.” 
Pinkie gulped, her face growing pale. “I-I won't end up like R-Rainbow or Rarity will I?” She stammered. 
“If she hears you speaking like that, I'm sure it will be much, much worse..” 
“But I don't want to end up like that! She doesn't talk to anyone any more..not after... not after she lost her wings...”
“Yes, it's no way for a person to live.” Twilight looked away for a moment, her breath catching.
“An-and Rarity... she didn't live like that.. not for long anyway..” 
“Exactly, so don't go around asking for trouble Pinkie. Remember what happened when Trixie questioned her just once?” 
“How could it be worse than what she did to Lyra?” Pinkie gasped. 
“I don't think even she would be that harsh. Now get out of here Pinkie Pie, before Celestia knows about you trying to befriend the horse. I'm sure I can keep your head on your shoulders if you leave now.” 
Pinkie turned and galloped away, allowing Twilight to shut the door behind her. She leant on it, sighing. “Now I have to go hide all my history books before the Princess comes..”
