This was every school ponies' big day! Everypony was finally going to graduate!

Right now however, everypony was still preparing. Luna was getting her hair done, Dusk was taking a shower, and Celestia was picking her after-party dress. "Tia!" called Luna.

"Yes Lulu, what is it?" answered Celestia.

"I can't find my dress." said Luna.

"Well I don't know where it is." said Celestia. Luna walked over to the changing room to speak to her sister.

"Are you sure, it's the blue-" Luna was cut of by what she saw. "TIA!"

"Oh, did you mean this dress?" asked Celestia in a mocking tone.

"Give it to me now!" said Luna in a demanding tone.

"But it looks so much better on me." said Celestia in the same tone as before. Luna tackled Celestia and the two started a tickle fight. Just at that moment Dusk finished his shower and walked outside in nothing but his towel.

"Hey has anypony seen my-" Dusk was cut of when Luna and Celestia crashed into him.

"Owww!" shouted Luna, Dusk, and Celestia simultaneously.

"What the hay you two?!?" said Dusk rubbing his forehead. Luna and Celestia grinned mischievously.

"Take this!" said Luna. Luna and Celestia then proceeded to include Dusk in their tickle fight. After a minute or so, they stopped.

"We should really get ready now." said Dusk. And with that, Luna, Dusk and Celestia got changed. Celestia removed Luna's dress and put on her own. Everypony then put on their graduation gown or toga and their graduation cap.

After getting ready, Luna, Dusk, and Celestia went to pick up Starshine and Silver Haze. "Hey guys! Are you ready to get our diplomas?" said Dusk.

"Hey bro! Yeah I can't wait to get out of school and enjoy summer! replied Silver Haze.

"Will you two be joining us at the after-party?" asked Celestia.

"Wouldn't miss it for the world!" said Starshine.

Everypony then proceeded to go to the Canterlot High auditorium for the graduating ceremony. After a few minutes of comosion, everypony settled down. At that moment Ms. Flora walked up on stage. "Alright everypony, settle down. Ladies and gentlecolts, I gladly present the graduates of class 425 batch 205. Everypony from class walked up on stage, recieved their diploma, took a bow, and walked off stage. After everypony got their Diploma, Ms. Flora announced the special awardees. "And now, the top 10 of the class." The awardees walked up on stage one by one from the top 10 to the valedictorian. Celestia was the valedictorian, Luna was the salutatorian, a pegasus called Blacklight was the honorable mention, a unicorn named Ravenger got the top 4 award, and Dusk got awarded with the top 5 award.

After awarding the top 10 graduates, everypony sang their graduation song.

Everypony got ready and started to sing.

I have often dreamed, of a far off place

Where a hero's welcome, would be waiting for me

Where the crowds will cheer, when they see my face

And a voice keeps saying, this is where I'm meant to be

I'll be there someday, I can go the distance

I will find my way, if I can be strong

I know ev'ry mile, will be worth my while

When I go the distance, I'll be right where I belong

Down an unknown road, to embrace my fate

Though that road may wander, it will lead me to you

And a thousand years, would be worth the wait

It might take a lifetime, but somehow I'll see it through

And I won't look back, I can go the distance

And I'll stay on track, no, I won't accept defeat

It's an uphill slope, but I won't lose hope

Till I go the distance, and my journey is complete

But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part

For a hero's strength is measured by his heart

Like a shooting star, I will go the distance

I will search the world, I will face it's harms

I don't care how far, i can go the distance

Till I find my hero's welcome, waiting in your arms

I will search the world, I will face it's harms

Till I find my hero's welcome, waiting in your arms

After their performance, everypony in the audience cheered and applauded. Princess Luna, Sir Dusk Chaser, Princess Celestia, Starshine Moonlight, and Silver Haze were now graduates!

The after-party, held at Canterlot castle, was short but fun. Everypony ate cake, hay noodles, cookies, and any other food that the chefs could cook. Everypony then proceeded to dance and dance until they were too tired. After the after-party, evrypony went home to sleep. "Dusk." whispered Luna.

"Yeah?" said Dusk.

"What are you going to do after today?" asked Luna.

"What I have always done." said Dusk. At this Luna was confused.

"What do you mean?" asked Luna.

"I will officially join the main branch of Lunar guards. I will always protect you and Tia so I planned to join the Lunar guards since I was a little colt. How about you Lulu?" asked Dusk.

"I'm going to raise the moon every night in place of daddy." said Luna.

"I'm going to take over raising the sun for mom." said Celestia

"Ok then, to protect you both, I will have to form my own group of  Royal guards. I will make a group that will stake during stay awake at Dusk and sleep at Dawn, this means that i will stay awake most of the time." said Dusk.

"Thanks dusk." said Luna and Celestia simultaneously. With that they all fell asleep.
