Celestia loves her little ponies, more than anything in the world.
She has fought for them, sacrificed for them, and given herself completely for the needs of her subjects.
Though a thousand years of doing the same thing would take their toll on even the most patient of people, Celestia not being an exception.
Missing the days where every other week was a grand battle, Celestia begins longing for the chance to throw some excitement into her now droll life.
Her wish is answered, though not in the way one would think.
But complaining gets one nowhere in this world, and all that matters is the roar of the crowd, and the sound of the bell.
