It was a normal morning for Twilight. She got up, got ready for the day, and then did her morning reading. Spike bothered her, just like normal. Everything seemed normal, except for one thing. She couldn’t put her hoof on it, something didn’t feel right.
Just as she was about to go out and see what her friends were up to, Spike came running into the room. “Twilight! Message for you!” he yelled. Twilight ran to Spike and read the letter aloud.
“My dearest Twilight Sparkle. I need you to come to Canterlot as fast as you can! Bring all of your friends with you. There is something I need to explain to you. From Princess Celestia.”
“I wonder what that could be about?” asked Spike.
“Only one way to find out Spike, let’s go!” Twilight said.
It only took 10 minutes to gather everyone at the train station. Everyone was confused when they got there. Twilight quickly calmed them and told them about Princess Celestia’s message.
“What do y’all reckon this is about?” Applejack asked.
“Well, whatever it is, it must be important if the Princess asked for all of us to be at the meeting.” Rainbowdash chimed in.
“Well, what are y’all waiting for, let’s go!”
The train ride seemed much longer then it was. They all wondered why Princess Celestia would have summoned all of them to an emergency meeting in Canterlot. Then, the train stopped. The group ran through the streets as fast as they could. All the Ponies that saw them were confused. Why were they in a hurry?
Finally, they reached the palace, and at the entrance, Princess Celestia and Luna were their waiting for them. “Hurry, we haven’t any time to waste!” Celestia said.
“What’s going on?” asked Twilight.
“All will be explained Twilight.” Said Luna. “Sister, if you would begin.”
“Long ago, we were ruled by a strange race of creatures that came from the skies. We called them the Immortals. One day, Luna and myself led a massive rebellion against the Immortals. We waged war for 200 Years, but then we had peace, for a price. We killed 100,000 of their soldiers, they killed 100,000 of ours, and we had peace.”
The six ponies and the baby dragon looked at the two Princesses with shocked and confused faces. But before they could ask any questions, Princess Luna continued the story.
“But that peace only lasted for 100,000 years, and now, that time is up. We need your help. The Immortals will arrive soon, we must be prepared.”
Princess Celestia then finished the statement. “Twilight, I need your help to train new magic users. Fluttershy, we need you to convince the animals to join us. Rainbowdash, we need you to train new flyers. Rarity, I need you to help create clothes and equipment for the army. Pinkie Pie, we need you to help recruit new soldiers. Finally, Applejack, we need food for the soldiers.”
“What about me?!” said Spike?
“You can help Twilight.” Said Luna.
