Get up 2. Have a shower and get dressed 3. Brush hair 4. Wake up spike. You hum as your walking though the library to get a book to read as you do everyday. The book this time is called "Love and Lust" the title speaks out to you so you grab it and have a seat. Half-way though the book Spike reminds you of some new spells that Princess Luna thought you age spells and time spells hard and advanced spells. argh "Those were hard spells" you say to the purple dragon "But i knew you could do it Twilight your magics getting stronger" "Is that all on the list Spike" you say checking the time "Uhh yeah that's all Twilight" "Alright Spike i want you to tidy the library while i'm gone i'll be back it a little bit ok?" you say exiting the room *sigh* "Ok Twilight". As your walking through Ponyvile you feel strange like someponys watching your every move but you brush it off and keep walking. You meet up with Pinkie Pie at sugar cube corner "Hey Twilight" you hear as you pass the bakery "Whatcha ya doing Twi?" "Oh nothing just walking around Ponyvile" "oooo sounds fun can i join you?" "Uhh sure Pinkie why not" "Oh this is going to be fun" you continue your walk then all of a sudden you hear a familiar voice call above you "Hey Twilight Pinkie what are you to doing" Pinkie Pie obnoxiously answers for you "Nothing Rainbow just going for a walk what about you?" "First time Dash is up early you mumble to your self" "Nothing just clearing the sky i'll join you two later" " Oki-Dokie-Lokie Rainbow" So you and Pinkie Pie make your way around Ponyville passing ponies as they greet and chatter with you and Pinkie, you pull Pinkie with you. Fianly Rainbow Dash catches up with you. "Hey, guys!" she calls out to you "Hi Rainbow dash" you call back, Pinkie starts bouncing and runs to Rainbow Dash and then you feel that strange feeling of being watched again, so you look around but see nothing. Then Rainbow Dash laughs as she flies over to you, "Pinkie tell Twilight that joke" She says "oh, I already told her it" she said. "We got to get to Princess Celestia, I need to talk to her." "Okay, Sparkles I'll see you later I'm gonna go race Apple Jack "Ooo, can I join?!" "Umm, sure Pinkie." "Okay, bye Twiilight see you later!" " alright, see you two later"you shout back as your walking. so you go to the castle and the guard takes you to Princess Celestia. "Hello there faithful student i'm glad your here" Princess Celestia says as you walk into the room "H-Hello Princess what is this all about?" "I can't tell you full details Twilight" "Why not Princess do you not trust me?" "Teilight you are my faithful student of course i trust you" ************************************************************************************************************************************************************ "Hahahahah shut up Fadeless the Princess needs to talk to us so lets go you to Pipe Dragon" you hear Pipe Dragon sigh and then say "Do we really have to?"

"Uh sorry Princess do continue" "Gladly, Twilight's had a threat made on her and her friends you must protect her NKFCPD is what the ponies have been calling you and I've caught on to what you do" "Uh you have" you all stutter "Yes and i wish for you help me and Luna will be leaving, i can't say where exactly but you must protect Twilight and her friends your my only hope if not Twilight will die and all of her friends you mustn't decline my offer NKFCPD, your my only hope for Twilight's sake and all her friends" "Okay Princess but you know what we do and it can't control us some times so you must know that if anything happens it's not our fault we didn't want to be like this is wasn't meant to be like this but the t-t-the factory tore our conscience and we say a rainbow maned pony as-well in the factory and in Ponyville i don't if shes been corrupted or not but we have our hopes"
