Tale of Derpy Hooves and Time Turner Whooves

  Soon Derpy was talking to Twilight about the wedding planning. "Do you think you can help put it together in time? I know you planned Princess Cadence's wedding, but you know what happened with the changelings. I don't want that to happen at my wedding." But Twilight understood why Derpy was nervous. "Don't worry, Derpy," Twilight said, "I won't let that happen to any of my friends. Pinkie Promise." She did the funny motions of the Pinkie Pie Promise.

  "Thank you, Twi. And I know that if you break your Pinkie Pie Promise, Pinkie Pie herself will come after you with her party cannon!" Both mares laughed at that thought. "So, when is the wedding going to take place, Derpy?" Twilight asked.

  Derpy thought about it. "In about a month from now, so... what's today?" Twilight now looked at the calendar to see what today was. "January 13, why?"

  "Oh, just want to make sure I'm getting married on the right date. Is something wrong, Twi?" Derpy asked. I wonder why Twilight is so shaken. Twilight looked away from the calendar. "Derpy, the date for your wedding is on February 13, on a Friday! Can't you move it to the 14th? It's the most romantic day in Equestria." She sounded scared. "Oh, don't be such a scaredy-cat, Twilight! It's just a silly superstition. It'll be fine."

  Oh, she didn't know just how wrong she was.
