Prologue: A Story

My name is Chad Dovin and one of the first things I heard on my 5th anniversary of moving to Ponyville was my name being called by the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

"Mr. Chad! Mr. Chad!" they called.

"Yes? How can I help you three today?" I asked in the way that most adults do when they talk to children. "Are you wanting me to help you earn you cutie marks?"

"That would be AWESOME! But no, we want to hear you tell your story again!" Scootaloo said.

"Really? You've heard it at least ten times now."

"PLEASE?" All three of them used their cutest, pleading faces while saying this.

"Ok, fine. Why don't we go sit in the library where it's quiet."

With that I walked the three fillies to the town library and started retelling my story to them just like I do whenever they ask me to.
