Celestia sat on the sun, only her thoughts to keep her company. 

"At least she could have left me some cider," Celestia grumbled, "or some cards."

Celestia gave up and decided to take a nap, "Twilight will sort this all out. Hmm, maybe she will prove useful, I do so hate dealing with Equestria dooming scenarios."





A mint unicorn and a cream earth pony sat together on a bench, the former sipping a hayshake. 

"Should we be worried, Lyra?" Bon Bon asked.

"Probably not, if I can keep getting these babies," Lyra pointed to her shake, "I don't see any cause for panic."

Bon Bon rolled her eyes and just settled to star gazing. The duo was perfectly content until a young earth pony colt ran up to them.

"Have you heard the news?" he asked.

"What news?"

"Vinyl Scratch is having a huge party, all of Ponyville is invited. It's outside of town hall, hurry it's going to start soon!"

The young colt ran away, and Lyra and Bon Bon looked at each other. They both shrugged their shoulders, got off the bench, and headed to town hall. 

They got there just in time, Vinyl had just finished setting up her equipment, and turned on all of her lights. She had many lights of all different colors which pointed in all directions.

The white unicorn grabbed a microphone with her magic and brought it up to her muzzle, "Never ending night, do you know what that means?"

When Vinyl got no reply she answered, "THE PARTY WILL LAST FOREVER!"

Everypony cheered and Vinyl cranked up the volume. It was so loud, it probably could have been heard from the sun.





Celestia was woken up from her nap by the oddest of noises: very loud music. She looked in the direction on Equestria and saw lights moving in all different directions.

They were partying. During everlasting night. While the whole of Equestria was in danger.

"Note to self: when I get back, burn Ponyville to the ground."





"I'm glad you were all able to join us today for this inaugural meeting of C.R.A.B.S, or Creatures Recently Attacked By Smoke. Now, I know that all of you as well as I feel violated by this smoke, but this group is to help us overcome our feelings."

Sitting in a circle was a Manticore, Sea Serpent, trees, and a pile of rubble.

"I'd like to start, if that's alright, " the others nodded, "as you all know, I used to be a beautiful rocky ledge. I was cut and sculpted by nature. Grass covered my top, and I was perfectly content. Then that was all viciously ripped away from me. The smoke went deep into my core and shook me, causing cracks and splits. I eventually fell apart, and was reduced to this."

The Manticore wiped away some tears from the rubble.

"Thank you."

A tear stricken tree stood up, "For the security of our emotions, I say we re-convene the meeting tomorrow." All of the creatures agreed, and went their separate ways.
