First published

there was always two Princess. Two Goddess. Who has ever heard of a third?

For many ages now, all ponies have hailed and looked up to Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. Have you ever heard of Princess Eve? Of course not. My name has been lost to the ages, for my job was considered minor. I am Princess Eve. Commader of the Stars and Clouds. What? Oh yes. Pegasi take care of the clouds and make them. I used to be the sole creator of clouds. I would walk all over the lands during the day. Clouds would spring up and float to the sky from my very hooves. Today i still make the majorty of the clouds, but those little ponies in the clouds take all the credit. Now about the stars. Big sister Luna, or as you know her Princess Luna, is only the mother of stars. I take care of them. I make the lovely constanlations at night that you see.I create the new ones at night and watch from above, looking at ponies dreams. Now why haven't you heard me from my sisters you say? I don't think they even remeber I exist. Now I have finally come forth from my time in space and the lonely outside skies to the ground. No one even seems to ntoice anything out of place from me. I appear as a regular pony, sma esize and style ,well except the combo of the horn and wings...

[left]A gentle breeze drifted through an open window, chilling up to room. Upon a great bed sat Princess Celestia, who was staring at the ceiling. The troubled Princess got up, hearing the knock on the door. "Come in" she said, holding a scroll in her hoove.Another mare walked in, slightly smaller than Celestia but with as much greatness to her. "Thou has called me sister?" Princess Luna asked, trying to read her sisters face. "Have you ever heard of a Princess Eve?" Celestia asked her little sister. "Why no, who is she?" Luna asked, puzzled. Celestia unrolled the scrolled, "Whoever she is and who she claims to be has sent me a letter. rather usual one too. It came through on a cloud" she said. Princess Luna nodded eagerly, "Read Tia” she asked and Celestia nodded. The Goddess looked down on the letter and started reading out loud.

" Dear big sisters Luna and Celestia,

I have been very lonely up here among the stars. I am so weary of being forgotten and wish for Ponies to know me once more. I hope you agree with me. It has been so long since I have written to you; I nearly have forgotten how to tell my clouds to find you! Carrying on with my normal jobs, controlling the stars and making clouds, I don’t even have the big crowd of people to service me anymore. Well some ponies still take care of me, but I’m not sure they won’t leave me as well. I shall arrive in Canterlot briskly when the moon starts coming up since Luna sleeps during the day. I hope you shall all greet me kindly, and I shall count off the minutes until I can see my big sisters again


Signed by her High Royal Highness Princess Eve, Roamer of the Stars and Walker of the Clouds. "

Princess Luna blinked not knowing what to say. Silence dragged on as they both drank in the information that the letter had delivered.

"I’m not the true owner of the stars-?" Luna began but Celestia starting speaking around the same time, "We both have a little sister named Eve-?" they two siblings looked at each other, yet again filling the room with silence.

"Well consider this Lu, who would make up such a lie? On top of that we weren’t always alone when we were fillies..." Celestia said. They both drifted off into their memories.

Blurriness came but then they were, as fillies.
"Tia, tia, do you know where I am?!" exclaimed a little Luna as she hid behind her hooves. "I don't know Lu, where are you," A smaller Celestia cried flying around he little sister. "No Cel, Cel! Look at me, I’m flying again!" shouted an even younger filly. Her eyes were like sparks, golden with a hint of blue. She had long dark aqua hair, straight yet it seemed to flow like a river down her back. Her body was silver, and it seemed to slightly shimmer. She was flying some off the ground and was delighted she promptly landed upside down on the ground. Celstia and Luna started laughing, pointing at the younger filly. "Na-na, Cel! Don't laugh at me. Someday I’ll be as great as you guys!" she pouted. Celestia and Luna flew over and hugged her, they both chimed toghter softly, "Don't worry E, youll soon soar" then they laughed toghter and all three fillies laughed and hugged each other.

Princess Luna looked up at Celestia, "You mean, Tia that just wasn't a friend or playmate? It has been so long" she started feeling guilty. No ordinary big sister would forget their little sister.’ Big sister' that word wasn't new to Luna, but when it was applied to her, it was a shock. The two princesses looked at each other. "We should at least welcome her with open arms" Celestia said and Luna nodded. Standing up, "Well goodnight sister. I shall go an look over the night. You rest and carry on with plans at the morning."

Princess Eve sat outside on her favorite chair, wondering if her sisters had gotten her letter yet. She stood up and looked around at the few busy servants making ready for her midnight snack, Trotting back in her starry palace she looked yet again in the mirror. It had become a habit long ago; she had been worried she didn't look like herself anymore. it was calming to look at her reflection. She was taller now and her hair even longer. She hadn’t really changed, except for her hind flank. This now stood a proud Silver cloud, her cutie mark. "Your Royal Highness?" called one of her servants, "Your 'Midnight Snack' is ready". Smiling at the thought of being with her sister caused a smile to burst on her face, even when she was dreading the awful Marigold supremes her chef always made. [/left]

The uaslly slightly busy and proud Canterlot was awakened when Celestia lifted her horn and brought the sun up. Right when the rays peeked through and Equestria was lit up, everyone went to work. News had spread like wildfire that an important, yes unknown, Princess was coming to visit Canterlot.....

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In ponyville.


Twilight Sparkle opened her eyes, gladly staring at the sunlight coming in through her window. She sat up groggily and looked down at a baby dragon sleeping in a basket. "Spike!" Twilight said, poking the Dragon. "Huh, Whut?" he sat up rubbing his eyes. "The sun has been up for a few hours! We need to get to work" Twilight insisted. "What?! But it’s Sunday. Can't we take a break like every other week?" he complained. Twilight blushed; she had completely forgotten that it was Sunday. "Ohh sorry. Well I guess I’ll just go see how’s Rarity’s doing" she said. Spike jumped out of his bed, "Ill go with you!" Twilight laughed and walked down the stairs. Had she not taken more than five steps when Rainbow Dash flew up into her Face, "Did you hear the news?!" the Pegasus exclaimed. Twilight shook her head, "Sorry Rainbow Dash but I haven’t. I just got up" Fluttershy came right after rainbow dash, flying just off the ground. "R-really? you haven't? I thought you would have known right away" she said quietly. Twilight was still confused, "Ok tell me, what’s such big news?" she asked. "There’s an unknown princess visiting Canterlot! I thought Princess Celestia would have sent you a letter by now!" Rainbow Dash Said Excitedly. Twilight yet again shook her head, this time in amazement. "Really? Wow. Sadly the Princess hasn't Sent me a letter yet" Spike came to the door, holding his stomach. "D-don’t Count on it Twilight" he said and held out a scroll. Twilight smiled, "Thanks Spike. Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash. Let’s go find the others and see what this says!" she said, trotting out the door.


An hour later the Mane six had gathered and twilight held up the scroll, "Ok let’s see what it says" She opened it and read it out loud.

" Dear Twilight,

I have recently been sent a letter, announcing my unknown sister would arrive at Canterlot right at evening. I hope you and your friends can come straight away to help out. I would love everyone to help with the evening party and the welcoming of Princess Eve. Rainbow Dash, I wish for you to perform a Sonic Rainboom and a few Tricks when she arrives. Apple jack and Pinkie Pie will make a cake; Rarity will make a special crown for Princess Eve and a banner for her Welcoming. Fluttershy, I want your song bird choir to perform and a few flight birds to fly around during the party. Twilight, you shall of course watch over with everything.
I shall send a Chariot to pick all of you up.

Signed,
Princess Celestia. "


Rainbow dash was first to speak, "Cool! I get to perform for a Royal Goddess!" she cried frumpishly. Rarity looked at the blue Pegasus, "My dear! That is nothing compared to my job. Creating a crown for a Goddess. The simple thought it wonderful!" she gave a careful and dramatic swoon. "Y'all hold on there. Everyone’s job is equally important" Apple Jack butted in, not wanting an argument to start. Pinkie pie jumped up, "YESS! LETS GET TO PLANNING!" she said and started bouncing off.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Even with this big arrival coming up, Princess Eve's house was the same ehas always. She just wanted to go simple. No special things except her crown. Even her chariot would be the same. She had decided to give everyone not needed to prepare the day off. She walked around the rather small palace. She just didn't know what to do. She was happy she was finally going to see her sisters again, and she couldn't wait to see the kingdom again. Yet, what if no one bothered? What if no one even recognized her as a Goddess? Or even Royalty? The Princess forced herself to smile and called for her chariot. The sun was starting to go down, and she had a place to be. Mounting into her seat with her crown on her two Flyers stood ready to go. As the last rays of the suns went down, they took off.
