Galaxy's Adventures in Equestria

Later that day Twilight, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Galaxy were sitting in the library in Ponyville, the six mares were chatting with one another about what to do for the night since it was something special, Galaxy on the other hand was clueless on tonight being Hearts Warming Eve, or as he knew it, Christmas. Twilight and the gang had everything planned out about how they were going to celebrate it with him, but he laid out on the couch with his earbuds playing some music in his ears low enough so that the ponies couldn't hear it but loud enough so he couldn't hear them. He was going through photos of him and his friends a few days before he came here. There was Louise, Patrick, Thomas, his best friend, Annabel, and of course Austin the friend who was special like him, he got into a fight for standing up for him. They had all been through so much together and he didn't even get to say goodbye to them. And yet the day he left he got into that fight and his friends were so mad at him they told him that the would never talk to him, and then his folks had abandoned him so he lived with his brother, Marcus. Galaxy was dozing of and just about to fall asleep when he felt a tap on his shoulder, he looked to see Fluttershy standing there looking at the photo of him and his friends. "Were they close to you?" She asked, he nods. "They were my best friends where I'm from. See that boy with the bracelet? That's the kid I fought for and ended up with bruises on my chest and face the day I came here" He explains. She notices a tear roll down his cheek and she nuzzles him, "It's ok, don't cry, we're here for you", she cooed. "Thanks Fluttershy." He said. Then he said something that touched her deeply. He said, "They were the closest I had to a family, but now I'm here ,and this......this is home here. What all seven of us have, it's more than friendship, it's family connection." She gasped as well as the other five ponies, this caused them all to tackle him in a massive group hug. They hugged for minutes when the Pearlescense crystals on his necklace started to glow. They noticed but didn't care because they knew that this was a special day, they all felt the magic of friendship flowing through each and every single one of them. When the glowing stopped, they all felt so happy, then Galaxy spoke, "I love you all so much." They all blushed like crazy, then Twilight, responded, "We love you too Galaxy." Then the lights went out. "What the", Galaxy said shocked. He the remember he was wearing the necklace, he then concentrated and the crystals lit up the room he looks at the light fixture. "Everyone ok?" He asked, they all nodded, "Ok. Well I'm gonna go outside and see what caused this." He starts walking for the door when he does the whole town is empty. "Umm is there anything going on today girls?", he asks. He turns to face them and they all shake their heads. "Then why is the town empty?", he insists. He looks back outside to see nothing but a present sitting on the doorstep addressed to the Ponyville library. He picks it up, closes the door and walks back to the group. "Must be another book or something cause there's no way it's Christmas yet, right?", he puts the present on the floor and sits down on the floor with the six ponies sitting in a circle. They all stare at it for awhile. "Well this is getting boring", Dash complained, "somepony just open the present already." "Easy Dashie" Galaxy told her, "I know you anxious but just try to keep it under control." Rainbow Dash was so stunned by his surprisingly calm and gentle tone that she just smiled and blushed. Then the box moved. Their heads snapped in its direction, and they all decided someone should open it.
