It was a huge day at the Hasbro Studios, the staff and actors are getting ready for a big showing that will be viewed to audiences the worldwide. As they get prepared, a grey stallion with a brown mane, a horn and it’s cutie mark has a quill on. His name is Narrant Script and he was sitting on a red chair reading a book with the title 'The Three Musketeers.' He then stopped reading and looked at the camera introducing to everyone "Oh, hey everypony my name is Narrant Script, today I will now tell the tale of Ta-dah! The Three Musketeers! This story is one of my favourites...the one with pictures...and it has songs and three heroes!"

He turns the page shows three filly ponies and a baby dragon, with a tin can on a plate "Our story begins in the gutter." Narrant said narrating the story. He looks sadly as he continues "where poor young street urchins Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie are struggling to survive."

The next picture shows the fillies doing their best to survive. But suddenly, without warning, a couple of nasty Dogs grab Twilight, trying to hurt or rob them. Spike tries his best to fight back but he couldn't be able to do. Rainbow, frightened, rush to hide behind a barrel while Pinkie just stood there, frightened.

"Oh no, bad guys!" Narrant is heard gasping. "Will anyone defend these poor innocent fillies? Anyone! Anyone! Anyone! Well, anyone?" Meanwhile three shadow figures appear at the wall, the heroes known as the royal musketeers "The Royal Musketeers!" The Dogs gasp in horror as they fight them off. The fillies gasp in amazement and hope.

Twilight watch in amazement. A royal musketeer sees the young purple filly and smiles "and after the dust has settled, a kind Musketeer gives Twilight Sparkle a gift." The Royal Musketeer gave Twilight her own hat as a gift to remember this day. The young filly wears it...though it keeps falling over her eyes. The hat was too big for her little head.

"Don't you worry, Twilight. Someday you will grow into it."

Twilight and her friends smile happily. Meeting the musketeers. The trio begins posing with bravery with smiles on their faces, knowing what they want to be when they grow up.

"From that day forward, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie dreamed of being the best musketeers in all of Equestria..."

Then the next picture shows the gang more older...but disappointed in janitor items. 

Twilight Sparkle is now a grown up light purple female unicorn with a dark blue mane and tail with pink and purple highlights, dark purple eyes. Her cutie mark has a pink star surrounded by five smaller white ones.

Rainbow Dash is now a grown up light blue female pegasus with a rainbow striped mane, strong rose eyes and a rainbow tail. Her cutie mark has a cloud with a striking rainbow thunderbolt.

Pinkie Pie is now a grown female pink earth pony with dark pink curly mane and tail, bright blue eyes and two blue and one yellow balloons marking on her flank.

And Spike is now a grown up light purple with a light chartreuse Dragon with moderate sap green scales, a greenish gray underbelly and light lime ears and chartreuse green eyes. He is still small, unfortunately.

And while they are grown up and having a job however, the three friends, along with Twilight and the grown up Spike, aren't musketeers. "But over the years has passed their destinies of becoming musketeers was still as far away as we reckon."
