After a long walk the ponies and two superhero visitors arrived at the Town Hall and went inside before going to sit on the front row.

"I'm so excited you know why because this is my first celebration I got to" Cat Noir said.

"I'm so sorry Cat Noir but I'll make sure this isn't your last" Ladybug said patting Cat Noir on the back.

Then Pinkie Pie appeared out of nowhere.

"Isn't this exciting?" Pinkie asked the four "Are you excited, 'cause I'm excited, I've never been so excited--- well, except for the time that I saw you walk into town and I went..." Pinkie said before gasping as she then continued "But I mean really, who can top that?" Pinkie asked herself.

Then Fanfare started playing as an beige pony with gray mane and tail and an white crest with an sea blue flower of some sort got onstage.

"Fillies and Gentlecolts, as mayor of Ponyville it is my pleasure to announce the beginning of the Summer Sun Celebration!" The beige pony called, making everyone cheer "In just a few moments, our town will witness the magic of the sunrise, and celebrate this, the longest day of the year! And now, it is my great honor to introduce to you the ruler of our land" The beige pony said but while she did Twilight looked at the sky as she saw four stars merging with the moon making her worried "the very pony who gives us the sun and the moon each and everyday, the good, the wise, the bringer of harmony to all of Equestria..." The beige pony said.

"Ready?" Fluttershy asked.

"I can't wait for it" Cat Noir said.

"...Princess Celestia!" The beige pony said making everyone cheer.

But as Rarity opened the curtains she noticed no one there not even the aforementioned Princess making her worried.

"This can't be good." Twilight said a bit worried.

"You said it" Ladybug said.

"Remain calm, everypony, there must be a reasonable explanation!" The beige pony said.

"Ooh, ooh, I love guessing games! Is she hiding?" Pinkie said before looking between her hooves.

"She's gone!" Rarity said making everypony gasp.

"Ooh, she's good." Pinkie said in a spooky tone.

Then Ladybug and Cat Noir grabbed their signature yo-yo and stick.

"Wherever you are, show yourself!" Cat Noir called.

Then Pinkie yelped upon seeing an dark blue mist appear.

"Oh no... Nightmare Moon!" Twilight said a bit worried as then an black pony got out it had dark blue mane and tail which were floating she also had an dark blue helmet crest with an white sun in the middle she also had a purple splot with an white moon in the middle as an Cutie Mark as then Spike fell onto the ground unconscious.

"Oh, my beloved subjects. It's been so long since I've seen your precious little sun-loving faces." Nightmare Moon said in an evil tone.

"What did you do with our Princess?!" Rainbow called angrily while struggling to fly to Nightmare Moon.

"Whoa there, Nelly..." Applejack said while trying to hold her by pulling her tail.

The Nightmare Moon started chuckling before talking again.

"Why, am I not royal enough for you? Don't you know who I am?" Nightmare Moon asked evilly.

"Ooh, ooh, more guessing games! Um, Hokey Smokes! How about... Queen Meanie! No! Black Snooty, Black Snooty---" Pinkie guessed thinking it was an guessing game before Applejack puts an apple in her mouth.

"Does my crown no longer count now that I have been imprisoned for a thousand years? Did you not recall the legend? Did you not see the signs?" Nightmare Moon asked once more while first scaring Fluttershy before pulling Rarity's head up.

"I did. And I know who you are. you're the Mare in the Moon--- Nightmare Moon!" Twilight said making everyone gasp.

Then we saw butterfly glasses appear in front of Nightmare Moon's eyes.

"Alright, Nightmare Moon take Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculouses and also break the Elements of Harmony and don't let me down!" Hawk Moth said from the glasses.

Then Ladybug and Cat Noir gasped.

"I think we know the reason is you transformed, you had an Akuma before!" Ladybug said making everyone gasp again.

"Yeah so give me the place where the Akuma hit you so we can give you your normal self back" Cat Noir said.

"Never! Remember this day, little ponies and humans, for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night will last forever!" Nightmare Moon called making it thunder as the ponies all shuddered in fear, Twilight looked with worried expressions while Ladybug and Cat Noir glared at Nightmare Moon in anger.
