Merry Celestmas, Christmas for poniesby BroneyofnoelChaptersRainbow DashApplejackRarityFluttershyTwilightCelestia and LunaPinkie PieIMPORTANT!!!The Great and Powerful TrixieRainbow Dash"Nah, I bet you can't!" Pinkie said, nudging Rainbow with her hoof. "Bet you ten bits!" Rainbow Dash said, pulling out ten bits, setting ten bits on the table. "Now Ah don't want anyone gambling 'round my little sis, got it?!" Applejack said, sliding Rainbow's ten bits back to her. Rainbow simply nodded and started: "When I was a little filly, about fourteen years ago, three days to Celestmas..... "Rainbow Dash, COME BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!!!" Madame feather, the headmaster said, chasing around the orphanage after Rainbow Dash. "Nope, you'll never catch me, I'm way faster than..." Rainbow ran into one of the guards, who grabbed her and held her still. "Arrgh, let me go!!" Rainbow said as she struggled out of the guards grip, when she finally popped her forelegs out, Madame feather had reached her. "RAINBOW DASH, this is strike four for you, that's four days in the 'dark' room, looks like you'll be missing Celestmas this year!" Madame Feather chuckled and continued, "keep this up and you'll never get adopted," Her saying that made rainbow explode in anger, she punched the guard in the face, causing him to falter backwards, Rainbow lunged at Madame Feather and gave her a right hook to the jaw, knocking her out. "Buck you," Rainbow said, she walked out of the orphanage, down the street, and then she galloped away, not looking to go anywhere but here, anywhere. Later that night, Rainbow Dash found herself under a bridge, sleeping through a snowstorn, many Pegasi simply looked at her and kept on flying. "I can't go back now, I'd rather die." Rainbow said quietly to herself to keep her spirit up. She somehow survived the snowstorm, and the next morning, Rainbow walked to Canterlot, where the people looked disgustingly at her, homeless, little body. "Hey, hey you!" A strange looking creature said to her. "What do you want? Dash said to the little creature, who had very large wings, and had lion paws, and eagle's claws and head. "You look hungry, I had to be on the street too, here's something, merry Celestmas," the creature said as it tossed a loaf of bread to Rainbow Dash. "Name's Gilda, and I am a Griffon," Gilda said, reaching out her claw. Rainbow shook her claw, and said: "So where do you live now?" "I live with my foster parents, we live right up there," Gilda said, pointing to the third story of a green apartment building. "Umm, cool, do you have any extra blankets?' Rainbow asked, looking sad. "I can go check, want to come?" Gilda said, a big smile on her face. "Sure, that sounds fun!' Rainbow said, following Gilda into the building. Rainbow followed Gilda up three flights of stairs, when they reached her floor, Rainbow followed Gilda to room number 34, and Gilda opened the door. "Mom, do we have any extra blankets?" Gilda called. "Yes dear, why?" a voice said, what Rainbow presumed the kitchen. "I met this girl on the street, she's a little filly, but she's homeless," Gilda said, her mother, a Light purple mare with dark purple hair. "No, we don't have any extra blankets," her mom looked at Rainbow. "Oh, okay, I'll just be leaving," Rainbow said, tears hidden under her closed eyelids. "But we do have an extra bed," her mom said, catching all of Rainbow's attention. "Mom, do you mean it?!?" Gilda said, giving Rainbow a hug. "No one should be alone on Celestmas, that is where your family, little girl," her mom walked over to Dash. "They're dead, I am an orphan," Rainbow Dash said weakly. "Well, that settles it, you're here for the holidays, at minimum," her mom said, a smile on her face. "Thank you so much!!!" Rainbow said, giving Gilda's mom a hug. "Not a problem, just go into the bathroom and wash up," her mom said, pointing to a white door. "Yes ma'am," Rainbow said, she wasn't for being the polite type, but she was just invited to live with her new friend. "Oh, and um, what's your name?" her mom asked. "My name is Rainbow Dash," Rainbow said with a shy smile. "That's a neat name, my name is Sarah Feather," Sarah said. "Sarah, Ffffeather!!!, are you related to Madge feather?" Rainbow said, the last name of feather struck a bolt of fear in her heart. "Why yes, she is my cousin, why?" Mrs. Feather asked. "Umm, no reason, I think I uh, know her," Rainbow sort of lied. "She'll be here in two days, isn't that nice, you two can catch up," Mrs. Feather said. "Are you married?" Rainbow asked, curious as she was looking at a photo of Gilda, Ms. Feather, and a red stallion. "Yes, I've been married for seven and a half years," Mrs. Feather said. "That's cool," Rainbow said as she washed up, when she was done, she walked into her bedroom, it was painted light blue, and had some bookshelves, and a single twin bed against the far wall. "Dinner is ready!" Mrs. Feather said, leaning out of the kitchen. Gilda and Rainbow Dash ran into the kitchen, where they were greeted by Mrs and Mr. Feather, Mr. Feather looked at Rainbow and said, "You must be Rainbow Dash," he held out a hoof, Rainbow accepted and shook his hoof. "Yes I am Mr. Feather," Rainbow said, blushing slightly. "Well, let's have a great dinner shall we?" Mr. Feather said as they all sat down around the table. The dinner they all ate that night consisted of shrimp, broccoli and cheese casserole, which surprisingly, Rainbow dash loved, and mashed potatoes. "Dinner was delicious, thank you," Rainbow said to Mr. and Mrs. Feather. "You're welcome," Mrs. Feather said. "I'm very tired from the last few days, I am going to go to bed early," Rainbow said with a yawn. "Okay, see you i the morning," Mrs. Feather said, rising from the table, along with Mr. Feather, who took the dishes to the sink. Rainbow went to her bed, half expecting to wake up still under that bridge, or well, not wake up, but still be under the bridge. That night Rainbow drempt of her old family, which made her scream out for her mom in the middle of the night. Mrs. Feather came galloping in to her room and said: "Shhh, Shh, what's wrong?" "I, I remembered my family, I'm sorry," Rainbow said, tears falling from her eyes. "it's okay, it's okay," Mrs. Feather said, comforting Rainbow. When Rainbow woke up later in the morning, it was nearly 1 o' clock in the afternoon, and outside her door, there was a bustling of noise. "What's going on?" Rainbow asked, looking at the Feathers' dining room filling up with fancy dishes, the smell of turkey was in the air. "We have some family coming over for dinner, and we're setting up, Gilda is down at the park if you want o go and have fun, our Auntie Rosin is watching her," Mr. Feather said. "Well, that's where I'm going then," Rainbow said, grabbing a scarf. "Alright, but be safe," Mrs. Feather said. Rainbow walked out of the door, down the stairs, toward the park. "Rainbow, what's up?" Gilda said, looking at Rainbow from the top of the slide. "Nothing much, where's Auntie Rosin?" Rainbow asked. "She's right there," Gilda said, pointing towards a vanilla pony with a red mane, Rainbow and Gilda waved, and Rosin waved back. After about three hours of playing and talking, Gilda and Rainbow were tuckered out, they and Rosin went back to the apartment, where a nearly full table was waiting, only three seats were empty, one for Rosin, one for Gilda, and even one for Rainbow Dash. :"YOU!!" Madame Feather said, pointing a hoof at Rainbow. "What, you!" Rainbow had forgotten that Madame Feather was coming. "This was the little demon I told you about!!" Madame Feather said, looking at Mrs. Feather. "She has been very polite, in fact, I, Sarah Feather, would like to adopt her," Mrs. Feather said. "What, you can't!!" Madame Feather said. 'Why not?" Rainbow and Mrs. feather said in unison, both irritated. "Because, she, she has a single relative, an aunt in fact, she lives in Cloudsdale," Madame Feather said. Rainbow looked at Sarah, then at Madame Feather, and said, "Really!!!" Rainbow was so excited. "Yes, that's why I was chasing you," Madame Feather said, faltering a little. "So when do I meet her?" Rainbow asked. "I will take you right now," Madame Feather said, walking out the door, as they were leaving, Rainbow said, "I will see you again someday, and you were all the family I hadn't had in a long time, thank you," "I'll miss you Dash," Gilda said, tears forming. "I'll miss you too," Rainbow said, tears welling up in her eyes too. "I'll be back in about twenty minutes," Madame Feather said. Madame Feather walked out the door, and headed for a cart, Rainbow got in back, knowing that she would wake up with her family. Applejack"Your turn Applejack," Twilight said, pointing a hoof at Applejack. "Well, I reckon that my favorite Celestmas was about seven years ago..." Applejack started. "Mama, when's Little Apple gonna be born?" Applejack asked her mother, who was pregnant with AppleBloom at this time. "Her name is not Little Apple, It's AppleBloom," her mother, Whinoa, responded, she rubbed her very inflated stomach. "Can it pleeaasse be Little Apple, pleeaasse!" Applejack pleaded, on her knees. "No, your grandmother and Ah have already decided," her mother said, looking seriously at Applejack. "But Big Macintosh named me after cereal!!!" Applejack said in a whine. "No, he didn't, your father did," her mother said still chuckling a little. "It is good cereal!" her father walked into the room, laughing. "Alright, now Ah can't be stressed, it's bad for the baby," her mom said, rubbing her stomach. "Fine, Ah'll go find Big Macintosh, Ah'm starving!!!" Applejack said, rubbing her empty stomach. Applejack walked out of the house, only to find Big Macintosh, Caramel, and Braeburn playing hoofball,a silly little game where you get a 'pigskin' as they call it , to a special zone, but the other players had to tackle the person with the ball. "Hey Applejack," Caramel said, forgetting that he was about to be tackled by Big Macintosh, he was taken dooowwwnnnnnn. "Can Ah play?" Applejack asked, wanting to see what all the fuss of the game was about. "Sure, you're on my team, Caramel, Braeburn, you two are on a team now," Macintosh said as he grabbed the ball off the ground. "Hey sis, catch!" Macintosh threw the ball directly at Applejack, she braced for impact. The impact never came, instead she heard laughing from Caramel and Braeburn. "Ha ha, Applejack, you're supposed to catch it, not let Braeburn get it," Macintosh said laughing. "Eh, sorry, gimme another chance, 'cept this time, Ah throw," Applejack said, taking the ball from Braeburn. "Deal," Macintosh said, staying near Applejack, waiting to catch her bad throw. Applejack threw the ball, it zoomed passed Macintosh, Braeburn, and Caramel, it drilled itself into a hill. Macintosh's jaw dropped he looked at his sister, and then back to the hill, and then back to his sister. "Sis', Ah didn't know you could throw that well," Macintosh said, his jaw still down. "Well, Ah'll be," Braeburn said, his jaw still down too. "SOUPS ON, come inside!" Granny Smith yelled from the window. All four of them walked into the house and sat at the HUGE dining table, it went Applejack, Applejack's mother, Applejack's father, Big Macintosh, Braeburn, Caramel, Granny Smith, Golden Delicious, Red Delicious, Apple Fritter, and then there was Apple Turnover. "Alright, we should thank Granny Smith for this fine dinner," said Apple Fritter, raising his glass of Apple Cider. Everyone at the table raised their glasses in unison, after the toast, there were many conversations going, including bragging about how she could throw better than any of the boys. "Yep, Granny I sure did, It flew right past all of them," Applejack said, a mouthful of breads. Granny smiled and said, "Now Applejack, I think that's amazing, but don't go bragging," "Okay granny, Ah won't, Ah promise," Applejack always kept her promises. Throughout the rest of the inner, the excitement in the room steadily increased, everyone knew what happened after dinner, they each opened one present, that was another Apple family tradition. "Looks like Granny Smith hasn't lost her touch," Braeburn said loudly, getting a laugh from everypony. "Now child, you haven't gotten a present yet, so don't sas," granny Smith smiled. "Alright, Applejack, pick one," Applejack's mother said. "I pick..." Applejack was interrupted. "Oooh, ahhhhhhhhhhh!" Applejack's mother was holding her stomach. "She's going into labor!" Applejack's father exclaimed, pushing everypony back. Her father ran to the phone and called Nurse Redheart, who would arrive in a few minutes. "Granny Smith, what in the hay is going on?" Applejack asked, receiving a smack from her granny. "Now, Ah don't want to hear you say that again ya hear?" Granny Smith said sternly, Applejack nodded. "Your mother is giving birth to AppleBloom," Granny Smith said, trying to fully assess their situation. A few minutes of confusion and her mother screaming passed before Nurse Redheart arrived. "Now miss, I am going to need you to push okay?" Nurse Redheart said, holding Applejack's mother's hoof and looking into her eyes. Applejack's mother nodded and Screamed, then Applejack heard the sound of a newborn Filly crying. Applejack adn Big Macintosh looked past the crowd, the saw a tiny, newborn, vanilla filly with red hair. "AppleBloom!" Applejack said, resulting in a weak smile from her mother. "Mama, what's wrong?" Applejack asked, feeling a sudden sense of urgency. "Applejack, I..I am dying, I love you, your brother, your father, and Granny Smith, and the rest of the family," Applejack's mother drifted off into a deep sleep, a sleep that she would never awake from. "Mama, wake up mama, wake up, wake up," Applejack's eyes were pouring tears, she was shaking her mother, who just wouldn't wake up, her eyes stay closed, her heart stay still, her children stay strong. "Now Applejack," Granny Smith p a hoof on Applejack's shoulder, only to receive a look of determination, a determination to make mama wake up. "Applejack, she's dead, please understand, she won't come back," Granny Smith said, crying tears, tears that she had never seen before. "No, she can't be, she CAN"T BE!!" Applejack screamed, and then she collapsed onto the floor. The next morning, Applejack awoke in her bed, sweating heavy beads of sweat, panicked, she ran down to Granny Smith who was looking out the window with the thousand yard stare. "Grandma, did mom, did she.." Applejack asked, but was cut off by a slow depressed nod from Granny Smith, they ran to each other and hugged. A week passed until the funeral, it was a dark, stormy day, first day of the new year, at the funeral, everyone who was in the family showed up, where she was standing, she could see everyone, but then a little puppy ran up to Applejack, licking her foreleg, she picked the little pup up and said: "I'm gonna call you Winona," Applejack said as she hugged the puppy, who licked her face. "That was the saddest story I've ever ever heard," Pinkie said, tears in her eyes. "How was that your best Celestmas?" Rainbow asked, depressed. "Because, Ah got my little sister, she has blessed mah world, ya see Ah learned later that my mama was already gonna die, but she gave me my little sister fist, and that's why it was my Best Celestmas," Applejack said, pulling AppleBloom in for a hug, slightly crying. . "Alright, Rarity your turn..." Twilight said, fighting back tears. Rarity"Well, my best Celestmas was probably 11 years ago..." Rarity said. "YAY, Celestmas morning!!" rarity, still a filly, ran into her living room, where her parents were waiting by a very well decorated tree. "Now Rarity, we got two really big gifts, but only those two okay?' her mother stressed. Rarity nodded, trying to get at the rather large box sitting in front of the tree. She arrived at the box, which was about as big as her.and she opened it. Rarity gasped,"Yay, this is just what I wanted, nothing could be better!" "What about this?" Rarity's father pulled out a small box. "Doubt it,' Rarity said, when she opened the box,"TICKETS AND A VIP TO THE SAPPHIRE SHORES CONCERT!!!" Rarity ran over to her parents, crying, and gave them a hug. "Now, look at the date on the ticket," her mother said. "That's today!!, at 8:00!!" Rarity said, screaming like a fanmare. "Yep, I'm gonna take you," her mother said, giving Rarity a hug. "Sweet!!!" Rarity said, losing her cool for a moment. Rarity gave her mother a gift, she had made her a scarf, which actually wasn't bad, and her fathers gift, she had wanted to give him a blanket, but with sleeves, but she always added an extra sleeve, right where the head was supposed to be. So Rarity had decided to give him a t-shirt that said 'I'm here to kick butt, and chew bubblegum, and I'm out of bubblegum'. They then went to Rarity's grandmothers, Granny Fash. who lived on the outskirts of Canterlot. "Hello daughter, and little Rarity," Grandma Fash said, giving little Rarity a hug. "Hey Grandma!" Rarity said, hugging back, "your cousin Frye-Frye is here, go say hi to her," Rarity nodded and walked to the family room and saw everyone, and there was Frye-Frye. "Cousin Rarity," Frye-Frye said as she ran up to her cousin and gave her a strangling hug. "Cousin Frye, what have you been up to?" Rarity said, noticing her cousin had several scratches all around her body. "Oh, I have been trying to get my Cutie Mark!" Frye-Frye said, showing Rarity her blank flank. "In what, demolition?" Rarity asked lamely. "Nope, I've been making a tv show, called Galaxy Mares," Frye-Frye said, showing Rarity a picture of a vanilla pony with brown hair. "That sounds interesting, but I have to catch up with cousin Mayhoof," Rarity lied, she wasn't really interested, but she did kind of want to talk to cousin Mayhoof. Cousin Mayhoof was a little colt who had the nack of getting into trouble, a paddle at his school had his name on it over 100 times, whixh was nowhere compared to his friend Tater, who had his name on that paddle at least 250 times. "Hey there Cousin Mayhoof," Rarity said as she walked up to Mayhoof, who was shaking his presents, trying to figure out what was in them. "Oh, hey Rare," Rare was her pet name for him. "What'cha doing?" Rarity asked, looking for conversation. "Meh, trying to figure out what Grandma got me for Celestmas," Mayhoof said, continuing to shake his presents. "Cool, so what have you been up to?" Rarity asked, starting to get bored. "I have just been up to, well actually, I unscrewed the teachers chalkboard and when she wrote on it, it fell off the wal, haha she was so mad," Mayhoof said, rolling on the floor, gasping for breath, laughing. Rarity couldn't help but giggle at the thought, but when grandma Fash walked up, her smile went away because she that Fash had seen Mayhoof shaking his present. "Now Mayhoof, what was that you were doing?" Fash said angrily, staring at Mayhoof. "Umm, just making sure that my present was sturdy," it was a blatent lie, but Granny brushed it off. "No opening presents until the pie is ready," Granny said as she walked off. "Mayhoof, I don't think you should keep shaking the presents, Granny said not to," Rarity said, but Mayhoof didn't listen, he shook one present, and Granny Fash was there, a paddle in her mouth. She pained Mayhoof's rear end red. "Okay, now Rarity youu should open the first present," Granny Fash said, sliding a box to Rarity. "Oh me, okay?' Rarity said, picking up the box, it was heavy, so she put it down and pulled on the bow with her teeth. Rarity finally got the present opened and she jumped back at what she saw, it was a copy of Sapphire Shores' costume, even with the blue jewels. With a gasp, Rarity said, "Thank you grandma, I love it!!" Rarity gave her grandma a hug. "You're welcome," Fash said, chuckling. After much gift-giving, and much more gasps and tears of joy, all the gifts were given out, and boy were there a lot of them. "Alright Rarity, we've got to go if we are to arrive in time for the concert," Rarity's mother said, loading all of the presents into a cart, Rarity ran and trotted right by her mother on the way to the concert. "Heello all of my fans, how are we doing toonight?" Sapphire Shores said with a spunk tune, her concert was about to start, and Rarity was in the front row. With screaming and hollering, Rarity lost her cool, she was one of the wildest fans in the whole arena. After the two hour concert, Rarity returned to her normal self, and just in time, she was about to go backstage to meet Sapphire Shores, the pony of Pop, she couldn't wait. "Hello, Ms. Sapphire Shores?" Rarity was alone, her mom didn't get a backstage pass, but she looked for Sapphire. "Did somebody call me?" Sapphire said, walking from the curtain, away from her encore of her new hit song, which Rarity missed so she would be the only one backstage. "Yes, Ms, ms. Sapphire, I, I'm Rarity, and I'm a huge fan," Rarity said, trembling. "Well hello Rarity," Sapphire said, smiling. Rarity was so astonished that Sapphire acknowledged her, she fainted. "Rarity dear, are you okay?" her mom asked, wiping off her head. "HUH, where's Sapphire, ooh I missed it!" Rarity screamed, crying. "No you didn't child, I'm right here," Sapphire said. FluttershyRarity ended, a huge smile on her face, an of course Pinkie's too. "Alright Fluttershy, your turn," Twilight whispered, making Fluttershy jump. "Um.....okay Twilight, my favorite Celestmas happened about 5 years ago..." Fluttershy started. Fluttershy woke up, covered in burned wood and other debris, looking around, she saw a light, she crawled for it, she crawled and crawled until she finally reached her destination, it was a small, white cloud. she noticed it was very dark outside, and also very cold, She looked back at her house, it had somehow burned through the night, she shivered. Still not understanding that her house, and her parents were gone, she tried to fly, but she was a very weak flyer, so she was stuck on that little white cloud. "I have to say warm," Fluttershy said to herself, starting to understand that she would die if she didn't stay warm. Fluttershy tried to open the cloud, but it was very tough for her, so she found a small opening and slid her hind legs in, then her stomach, and then her chest. "This will do," Fluttershy said as she was being warmed by a cloud, which was somewhat comforting. Fluttershy laid in that cloud for about thirty minutes when she noticed lights below her, like RIGHT below her. She looked down and saw CloudsDale, the bright sky metropolis was as busy as ever the night before Celestmas, many Pegasi were in a store called CloudsDale empire of circutry, Fluttershy didn't know what that meant. Fluttershy took a chance, which would save ehr life, she slipped herself out of the cloud and started falling, and falling, and then she fluttered her wings, they slowed her down enough so she wouldn't be injured when she hit a snow drift outside a family's house. "What's going on out here!" a very deep voice said, opening the door. "Uncle, it's okay, don't be so paranoid," theat voice, Fluttershy knew that voice,it, it was, ooh she knew it, so she poked her head out of the snowdrift. "Fluttershy, is that you?" the small marfe asked, turning her head. "Yes, I'm sorry, you see, my house burned down earlier..." Fluttershy was cut off by that small mare with Blue hair, and a grey coat, "No, no, come in,, come in, we were just about to have dinner," that mare sadi, Fluttershy still couldn't remember that name. "It's okay, I can just keep going," Fluttershy said weakly, trying to get out of the drift. "You can leave if you can get out of that drift," the mare sadi with a smile. "I, I can't," Fluttershy said, her head down. The mare walked over and pulled her out and put Fluttershy on her hooves. "There, now come in," The mare said, it was Comet, Comet swirl, that was her name, Fluttershy had seen her good natured deeds many times before, they had only talked once. Fluttershy followed Comet in, and her father closed the door behind them. Fluttershy looked at what they had for dinner, it was a salad with blue cheese, ranch dressing, and many other condiments on it, plus there were potatoes, breads, and sweets. "Fluttershy, you need to eat, you look awful, no offense," Comet said, shrugging. "No, it's okay, I'm...........I'm fine," Fluttershy said, looking down at the floor. "Eat," Comet said, pushing a plate with salad and bread on it. Fluttershy reluctantly ate a bite, and with that bite, she tasted a flavor explosion, spices and crisp vegetable flavored breads. She ate another bite, than another, then another, until the piece was gone, then she started to eat the salad, but first she said. "This is very nice, thank you for taking me in tonight," Fluttershy said, Comet smiled, her mouth full of bread. Fluttershy ate a crunchy bite of lettuce, she loved it, she ate and ate at the salad until it was gone, her belly full, she leaned back into her chair. "You like dinner?" Comet asked, her belly full as well. "Yes, very much," Fluttershy said with a hiccup. Her father walked towards the fridge, and on top was a large pumpkin pie, which he then placed the pie on the table, popped the top off and the smell of the frsh baked pie filled the room. "Well, Fluttershy is it, are you ready for pie?" the stallion, her father asked. "Well, maybe just a little piece," Fluttershy said, giving Comet's father her plate. "A little piece, okay," her father said, cutting the prefect piece out for Fluttershy, who gladly accepted the piece of pie. "Mmmmmm," Fluttershy said taking a bite, it warmed her whole body, it felt as is she had eaten a piece of heaven. "Glad you like it," Comet said, eating a piece of her own. "I love it, it's.,,,,,lovely," Fluttershy said, eating another bite. The pie was eaten with much happiness for the next hlf hour before her father said, "Alright girls, time to go to bed, you don't want to make Santa miss this house do you?" her father said, chuckling, he knew both of the girls didn't believe in Santa hooves anymore, Comet had stopped believing in Santa when she was nine, and Fluttershy had stopped believing when she was ten thanks to Comet. Both Fluttershy and Comet went into Comet's room, it had her bed and a futon, Fluttershy slept on the futon. "Goodnight Comet," Fluttershy yawned. "Goodnight Fluttershy," Comet sighed, she snuggled down into her blankets. Fluttershy had sweet dreams the rest of the night, the five hours of sleep she did get before a noise woke her up, was someone inside their house, who was it? "Pssst, Comet, who's in your house, moving around?" Fluttershy asked, recieving a loud groan from Comet who said, "Just my mom, she works nights," "We should get up," comet sprang to life, jumping out of her bed. Fluttershy didn't question, she tip-hoofed down the hallway, as they neared Comet's parents' door, Fluttershy realized what they were about to do. "Wake up!!! IT'S CELESTMAS MORNING!!!" Comet said as her and Fluttershy jumped on the bed, her parents laughing and the two mares giggling. "Go back to bed," her mother said, laughing, trying to push Comet onto her father. "No get up, mama, mom, mum, mommy, mummy, ma, ma, m, m, " Comet continued until her mother and father were in the living room, sitting on the sofa, while Comet opened her presents, she got a WonderBolts suit, which she loved the most, plus six other gifts. "Fluttershy, we have one for you too," her mother said as she pulled out a special cage, one that could be on clouds, in it a special white bunny. "I love him," Fluttershy said as she nuzzled the tiny bunny with her hoof. "I will call him Bunny, Angel Bunny," Fluttershy said. Wow, that sounds like a cool night," Rainbow said. "Alright now... me, huh, it's my turn," Twilight said with a smile. Twilight"Well, here goes, my best Celestmas was about 4 years ago...." Twilight started. "Now Twilight, when are you going home for Celestmas?" Princess Celestia asked, looking over Twilight's shoulder and reading along with her in her copy of obscure unicorn history, she was about to get to the main biography of Starswirl the bearded. "I will when my parents get here princess," Twilight said princess with a sense of royalty, causing a chuckle from Princess Celestia. "Alright, but you can't take this whole library with you okay/' Princess Celestia joked. "Haha, okay Princess," Twilight laughed. Princess Celestia walked out of Twilight's study, when she did, twilight pulled out what she had been waiting to read, but was unsure of what Celestia would think. Twilight pulled out a book called Special Magic: The many arts of transportation. Twilight immediately turned to the page on teleportation, she had been reading up on it for a while now, but she had witnessed the spell only once before, in a quick video in magic kindergarten, "Oh wow, this is gonna be harder than I expected," Twilight said, examining the spell, she knew she wouldn't be able to do it yet, but she tried. BOOM!!!!!!!!! A shelf exploded, sending books flying everywhere, she tried again, she levitated a pen, and it caught aflame, it seemed every time she tried, something broke. "Okay, one more time," she said aloud, she tried, a bright purple aura exploded out of her horn adn around her, she was taken from reality, and transported through a black nothing, she appeared ten feet away. "I DID IT!!!" Twilight said, jumping up and down, flailing her arms back and forth. "Good job," Twilight froze, was that, P-Princess Celestia, she turned around, it was. "I-I'm so sorry Princess," Twilight said, making herself as small as possible. "Sorry, why are you sorry, you're very young, and I'm impressed that you can already teleport, I didn't learn that for years," Princess Celestia said with her kind voice. "Thank you princess, that means a lot," Twilight slowly rose. "But I'm disappointed that you never told me you took that book," princess Celestia levitated the book and tucked it under her wing. "I didn't think you would miss it," Twilight said, instantly regretting that she took it. "All is well, you're not in trouble, just tell me next time,"Princess Celestia said, and she continued, "Your parents won't make it tonight, but they did send you one of these," Celestia revealed a large gist, it was wrapped in blue and purple. "They insist that you wait until tomorrow," Celestia halted twilight, who nodded and then she went back down to study. "You're welcome to join me at dinner, if you want," Celestia put her hoof an Twilight's shoulder, who gave her a sad look, and shook her head. "No thanks Princess," Twilight said, she just wanted to be alone, sadness consumed her. The Princess left her alone, and she cried for hours, she hadn't seen her mom or dad in sixteen months, she didn't listen to Celestia, she pulled the gift closer, wanting to open iit, she couldn't resist. The box contained a stuffed pony doll that read smarty pants, and it came with a notepad and quill, when she hugged it, hoping for relief, it gave her a sudden boost of energy, her horn ignited. "What's going on!!!" Twilight screamed. Twilight's body disappeared, it going through darkness again, but this time, she stopped in the defense of a wall, which exploded, sending her continuing through the darkness. "AAHHHH!!!!!" Twilight screamed, and she met another exploding wall. "Twilight, Twilight are you okay!!!" Princess Celestia yelled, rushing over to her student. "Celestia, what?" Twilight was confused, she had just teleported through all of the castle's magical defenses, that's what the exploding walls were. Twilight then realized where she was, she was in the royal dining room, in front of the Princess, Nobles, and Lords. "Twilight Sparkle, how did you do that, you teleported through our magical defenses, I can't even do that," Princess Celestia said, her voice sounding shocked. "I just did it, I don't know," Twilight said weakly, looking up at Celestia, who was still shocked. "Well, that will have to be fixed, what happened while you were teleporting?" Princess Celestia asked, not paying attention to the new conversation at the table. "I'm sorry princess Celestia, I just-" Twilight was stammering when the Princess said, "Twilight, it's okay,nothing's wrong, please, join us for dinner," the Princess said kindly, pulling out an empty seat for Twilight. "Yes Princess," Twilight said hastily, assigning herself into that seat. "Now, everypony, this is twilight Sparkle, the young one who I was telling you about," princess Celestia said, Twilight receiving many hellos and greetings. A large flame erupted from the table and Celestia's pet, Philomena, appeared, carrying a note from the royal outpost near the Griffon border. "Ladies, gentlecolts, I will be back momentarily," Princess Celestia said, exiting the room. "So, Ms. Sparkle, do you find being princess Celestia's prodigy fascinating?" A large blue mare asked, looking keenly at Twilight. "Well, I wouldn't say her Prodigy, but her being my mentor, it is very nice," Twilight forced a smile. Through a half an hour of questioning, twilight was very relieved when Celestia returned to the dinner table. "Well, time to eat," Celestia said, twenty dishes of food appeared in a second, all filled with delicious food, breads, salads, sweet apples, and pastas. All of the royalty ate the meal in near silence, which made Twilight uncomfortable, aside from the few two pony conversations that were held, dinner was silent. When dinner finally ended,all of the Nobles and Lords left. . "Twilight, you should go to bed," Princess Celestia said, then she yawned. "Alright," twilight said, looking down the passageway, Celestia escorted twilight down the passageway adn out side her room she said, "Merry Celestmas Twilight," Twilight walked through her doors, she found Spike sleeping in his bed, so she lay down in her bed, and visions of sugarplums danced in her head. "Gosh Twilight, that sounds mighty fine," Applejack said, her yawn was loud and close to follow. "Yeah you win," Rainbow then dosed off. "Well, i for one, still, yes ma'am you win," Rarity said. Pinkie and Fluttershy were already asleep, so Twilight lay down under a heavy blanket, and like a cloud, it comforted her, not abandonment, not death, not even hate could move her. She was with friends, Fluttershy was home, Rainbow with her family, Pinkie had the party, Rarity had the friendship, Applejack had her Family, especially her little sister, who was snuggled in Applejack's arms, and twilight, twilight had the magic. The end,,, maybe Thank ll of you for reading this, send me the name of a pony who you want to be in the next few chapters. Celestia and Luna"May we tell ours?" Luna asked as she and Celestia walked through the doorway. "Princesses!" Twilight exclaimed as everypony bowed for them. "Well?" Celestia asked. "Of course!" Twilight said. "Alright," Luna started, "Mine was 2998 years ago..." "Mommy, why does Celestia get a holiday, and I don't?" Luna whined. "You will get a holiday very soon Luna." their mother, Galagos, said. "It's not fair!" Luna yelled, looking at the ceiling. "Shush!" Galagos said, putting a hoof in front of her mouth. "Luna, guess what tomorrow is!" Celestia said. "What?" Luna asked, sighing. "Memas!" Celestia jumped, a huge smile on her face. "What?" Luna was confused. "Get it, Celest," Celestia gestured to herself, "Celestmas!" Luna walked to her room, hoping the day would just end, her sister had been bragging about getting a holiday for months now. Every day, she went on and on, I have a holiday, you don't she was tired of it. "Luna, Luna, come here!" Celestia said as she ran in to Luna's room. "If your bragging about your holiday, shut up!" Luna said loudly. "No, mom wants you," Celestia was bouncing around like Pinkie Pie. "Fine," Luna said lamely. Luna walked out of her room, led by Celestia, she walked up to her mother. "Luna, i know that you want a holiday, so I have given you one, since one day you will become goddess of the night, your holiday is Nightmare Night," Galagos said, a smile on her face. "Really!?!" Luna jumped ten feet in the air, running around, yelling yay. "When is it?" Luna asked, a smile still on her face. "October 31st," Galagos said. "Awesome!!" Luna said, October 31st was her birthday, so she loved that day. "I knew you'd like it," Galagos said. "Now, time for bed, Celestmas is tomorrow," Galagos said, looking at an excited Celestia. The two little fillies ran to their rooms, and Galagos went to Luna's room first. "I love you Luna, I am glad that you like your holiday," Galagos said, she kissed Luna on the cheek, and Luna gave her a hug. "Goodnight Luna," Galagos said, walking out of Luna's room, shutting the door quietly. Galagos walked into Celestia's room next, she bent over and kissed Celestia's cheek, Celestia was already asleep, so Galagos said, "Sleep tight my little angels," Galagos walked, and she sat in the living room for a moment, adn then she went off to bed, needing sleep for her speech in the morning. She was the Queen after all. "I thought you hated Nightmare Night?" Twilight said. "No, only after they made it about Nightmare moon," Luna said, looking at Twilight. "That was awesome, I mean, you got a holiday!!" Pinkie said, a huge smile on her face. "Princess Celestia, do you have one?" Twilight asked. "Well, if i must, my favorite Celestmas was one year ago..." Celestia started. Celestia and Luna sat there, enjoying the Celestmas party dinner, Luna wasn't quite adjusted to many people's company, she looked a bit uncomfortable. Celestia walked over to her and said, "Sister, it's been three months, I know you were gone for a thousand years, but you still seem uncomfortable around more than two people," Celestia said. "it's not that, I mean it is just that i am uncomfortable, I remember how cold it was on the moon, and it is nearing that temperature now, and memories are coming back," Luna said. "I have an idea," Celestia walked over to the chefs, and asked them, "My sister is uncomfortable, can you bring her a warm drink, and turn the heat up a little," "No problem Princess," the chef said, immediately going in to the kitchen to brew up a warm cup of tea, Luna's favorite was hot green tea. The chef brought the hot cup of tea to Luna, who gladly accepted it, she drank it, even though it was near boiling, she looked less uncomfortable, but still, something was off. "Celestia, can I ralk to you?" Luna asked. "Yes, what's wrong/" Celestia asked. "Well, I am not feeling well, i mean I am not sick, but I feel off," Luna said. "Is it something to do with the moon?" Celestia asked, looking at the large, full moon. "Possibly, can you close the drapes?" Luna asked. "Yes," Celestia closed the drapes, the room darkened a bit, but nothing very noticeable, Luna perked up a bit. "Thank you sister," Luna said. When the party ended, the sisters went to the main room on the third floor, they watched movies for a little while, hen Luna became tired, Celestia accompanied her to her room. "Goodnight Celestia," Luna said. "Goodnight," Celestia said, turning off the lights, "my little angel," Celestia cleaned up the main room, turned off the movie, and retired to her own room. The next morning, they awoke around the same time, Celestia looked outside, as always, she had the weather ponies drop four inches of white powdery snow. "Merry Celestmas sister," Celestia said with a yawn. "I got you a present," Luna said, giving a little box to Celestia. "Oh, you did, what is it,"Celestia opened it, it was some black powder, she looked up at Luna, who was smiling. "Philomena," Luna said, the ash floated up n the air, and it formed into a new Phoenix. "I love it,' Celestia said, looking back at Luna. "I have something for you too," Celestia actually did, she handed a book over to Luna, Luna opened it, it was an old scrapbook from their childhood, she gave Celestia a hug. Luna had lost a lot of her memories, thanks to Nightmare Moon, but this would help her get them back. "Wow, that was an amazing story," Fluttershy said, she had loved it. "Thank you," Celestia knew how shy Fluttershy was, so she knew it took a lot to get her to say that. "I'm glad you could make it to my party,' pinkie said, looking at Celestia, and then Luna. "You're not starting without I, are you?" the blue mare said as she entered the library. Pinkie PieThe following recount of Celestmas takes place six months before Pinkie meets Twilight. "Mommy, Daddy, Brother, Sister, it's so good for you to come to Ponyville for the holidays," Pinkie said excitedly as her family walked into Sugarcube corner, all of whom were surprised by how decorated it was, with streamers, balloons, a banner that said 'Merry Celestmas' and even a big ol' Celestmas tree, that had a bunch of colorful lights and more streamers. "We're all glad to be here sister," her first sister, Bleusome said. "I have been waiting to see where you moved to, this is a very nice little town," Pinkie's mother, Dianne said looking at the tree. "Me and Paps agree, this is a nice little town," Pinkie's sister Greenery, said, looking around the bakery. "Dad, what's wrong?" Pinkie asked, putting a hoof on her father's shoulder. "He hasn't been talking very much since the farm got foreclosed," Diane said, looking down at the floor. "I thought you got the farm back," Pinkie looked at Diane. "We did, but it burned about a week later, the silo was hit by lightning, and it collapsed onto the house. so we've been living at Greenery's ever since," Diane said, tears brimming in her eyes. "Why didn't you tell me?' Pinkie asked, sounding stressed. "We didn't want to worry you, but it's okay, your father and I are pulling double shifts at the local coal mines to buy a new farm, it shouldn't take long," Diane said, a weak smile, but a smile, Pinkie loved smiles. "Here, let me show you your rooms," Pinkie said, gesturing for them to follow her upstairs. After bouncing up the stairs, with her family walking ever so slowly behind her, she finally got them to there rooms, her mom and dad would be in her room, and her two sisters would be in the guestroom, but her, she would get to sleep in the Cakes' room. Later that day, Pinkie's mother Diane, walked downstairs and started to talk to her daughter, but something was up, she seemed excited, too excited, which caught Pinkie's attention. "Pinkimena, could you come up to see me and your father for a moment?" "Sure, why?" pinkie asked, following her mother up the stairs, bouncing of course. "Well, your father and I wanted to wait, but we have a surprise for you!" Diane said, adding a little tune. Pinkie opened the door and sitting there was her father with a box in his lap, he outstretched his old forelegs, Pinkie took the box and opened it, inside was a little tube with some stringy stuff. "What is it?" Pinkie asked confused, looking up to her mother. "Take it out then you'll see," her father said excitedly, which surprised Pinkie since she hadn't ever seen him so excited, not even hen he went to her parties when she was a little filly. Pinkie took out the tube and discovered it had a pull string, and that you were supposed to put the stringy stuff inside it, she followed the directions and pulled the string, the strings shot out in a burst of colorfulness that Pinkie hadn't ever seen, aside from that mysterious rainbow that she had gotten her Cutie Mark from. "Neat-O, I love it!" she said, still amazed by the colors, she grabbed her mom and dad for a hug. "Oh and could you cook this little critter up for dinner?" her father asked, pulling out a tiny alligator, who had no teeth and big purple eyes. "Why would I cook him, he's adorable!" Pinkie exclaimed, pulling the alligator from her father's hooves. "He's an alligator!" her father said, a little to loud. "Yeah, a baby, toothless alligator!" Pinkie said, nuzzling the tiny reptile. Diane looked at Pinkie's father, who sighed a big sigh and said: "Fine, you can keep him," Pinkie looked at the alligator and said, "I'm gonna call you Gummy!" "Ooh, my friend Rarity has close connections to Canterlot, so I got you two this!" Pinkie said, a piece of paper in her hooves. Diane read the letter aloud, "I, Princess Celestia of Equestria do hereby order that Diane and Roger Pie receive the area that used to be called Pie Rock Farms, in addition, I say that the Silo and farmhouse are to be rebuilt free of charge of the Pies," Diane and Roger just stared at Pinkie, an uncomfortable silence filling the room, Pinkie just lloked at her mother then her father. "Is something wrong?" Pinkie asked, but was nearly cut off ny a hug from her mother and father, and Gummy clamping on to her mane. "You got our old farm back," her mother said, crying tears of joy. "I've never been so happy!" her father said, getting a look form her mother that said 'What is that supposed to mean' written all over it. "Aside from our wedding day of course, and the birth of our kids," her father said nervously, rubbing the back of his head. "Well, let's have the most super spectacular Celestmas EVER!" Pinkie said, leading her mother and father downstairs, where her brother and sister were already waiting. "What's going on, why are you in such a good mood all of a sudden dad?" Greenery asked, looking at her father, who, for the first time in moths, had a HUGE grin that threatened to split his face in half. "Pinkie just got our farm back!" her father said, pulling them all in for a group hug. "Now way, how?" Greenery asked, intrigued. "Well, her friend, who has connections in Canterlot, put in a word, and the Princess followed through," Diane said cheerfully, her eyes still wet. "Well, we better hit the hay, it's getting late," Pinkie said with a yawn. "Before dinner, are you crazy!?!" her father said, receiving a laugh from all. The dinner they ate that night, well actually they just had a bunch of pies, bread, and cakes. All five of them, adn Gummy, enjoyed dinner but the best was yet to come. "Alright, I made this myself," Pinkie said, revealing an amazing looking pumpkin pie, it had a can of whipped cream literally lodged in the center of it. "As much as I just ate, I still have room for a slice of pie," Pinkie's father said, a slight smile on his face. "Alright anyone else?" Pinkie asked, receiving a hoof in the air from everypony. Pinkie sliced the pie into five and gave everyone a piece, but she gave Gummy some pie flavored Jell-o, he was a baby after all. "That pie was delicious," Greenery said, wiping her lips. "Yes ma'am, it was," her mother said. "mmm hmm," pinkie's father was still eating. "I loved it," Bleusome said. "Well, time to go to bed," pinkie said, with a huge yawn. "Okay," her father said, leaving the table with her mother. "Gosh Pinkie, that sounds like a pretty fun Celestmas, but I bet mine beats ya!" Rainbow Dash said, pointing a hoof at Pinkie. IMPORTANT!!!ATTENTION Everypony send me a name, I will add a new story every one to two days, so do it!!! The Great and Powerful Trixie"Trixie!" Applejack said, gripping Rainbow's tail in her teeth before Rainbow could reach her. "Yes, it is I, The Great and Powerful Trixie, here attending your 'party," Trixie said. "Well, in that case, do you want to tell your favorite Celestmas story?" Twilight asked. "Fine," Trixie said. "The Great and Powerful Trixie's favorite Celestmas happened when she was just a liltle filly,"Trixie started. "Probably earlier than Celestia's" Rainbow said, receiving a laugh from all, except Trixie. "Mom, it's Celestmas morning, and Trixie wants to open presents!" Trixie jumped into her mom's bed, bouncing up and down. A long story later! and then that's the last time I saw my family. Trixie walked away from her burning house. "Trixie!" ______________________________________________________________________________ "What!" Trixie shouted as Rainbow broke her concentration. Rainbow pointed a hoof at the door, Trixie's mother and father were waiting, and Trixie ran up to them, and they hugged. "This Celestmas!" Half assed, and a year late, but its here!
Rainbow Dash"Nah, I bet you can't!" Pinkie said, nudging Rainbow with her hoof. "Bet you ten bits!" Rainbow Dash said, pulling out ten bits, setting ten bits on the table. "Now Ah don't want anyone gambling 'round my little sis, got it?!" Applejack said, sliding Rainbow's ten bits back to her. Rainbow simply nodded and started: "When I was a little filly, about fourteen years ago, three days to Celestmas..... "Rainbow Dash, COME BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!!!" Madame feather, the headmaster said, chasing around the orphanage after Rainbow Dash. "Nope, you'll never catch me, I'm way faster than..." Rainbow ran into one of the guards, who grabbed her and held her still. "Arrgh, let me go!!" Rainbow said as she struggled out of the guards grip, when she finally popped her forelegs out, Madame feather had reached her. "RAINBOW DASH, this is strike four for you, that's four days in the 'dark' room, looks like you'll be missing Celestmas this year!" Madame Feather chuckled and continued, "keep this up and you'll never get adopted," Her saying that made rainbow explode in anger, she punched the guard in the face, causing him to falter backwards, Rainbow lunged at Madame Feather and gave her a right hook to the jaw, knocking her out. "Buck you," Rainbow said, she walked out of the orphanage, down the street, and then she galloped away, not looking to go anywhere but here, anywhere. Later that night, Rainbow Dash found herself under a bridge, sleeping through a snowstorn, many Pegasi simply looked at her and kept on flying. "I can't go back now, I'd rather die." Rainbow said quietly to herself to keep her spirit up. She somehow survived the snowstorm, and the next morning, Rainbow walked to Canterlot, where the people looked disgustingly at her, homeless, little body. "Hey, hey you!" A strange looking creature said to her. "What do you want? Dash said to the little creature, who had very large wings, and had lion paws, and eagle's claws and head. "You look hungry, I had to be on the street too, here's something, merry Celestmas," the creature said as it tossed a loaf of bread to Rainbow Dash. "Name's Gilda, and I am a Griffon," Gilda said, reaching out her claw. Rainbow shook her claw, and said: "So where do you live now?" "I live with my foster parents, we live right up there," Gilda said, pointing to the third story of a green apartment building. "Umm, cool, do you have any extra blankets?' Rainbow asked, looking sad. "I can go check, want to come?" Gilda said, a big smile on her face. "Sure, that sounds fun!' Rainbow said, following Gilda into the building. Rainbow followed Gilda up three flights of stairs, when they reached her floor, Rainbow followed Gilda to room number 34, and Gilda opened the door. "Mom, do we have any extra blankets?" Gilda called. "Yes dear, why?" a voice said, what Rainbow presumed the kitchen. "I met this girl on the street, she's a little filly, but she's homeless," Gilda said, her mother, a Light purple mare with dark purple hair. "No, we don't have any extra blankets," her mom looked at Rainbow. "Oh, okay, I'll just be leaving," Rainbow said, tears hidden under her closed eyelids. "But we do have an extra bed," her mom said, catching all of Rainbow's attention. "Mom, do you mean it?!?" Gilda said, giving Rainbow a hug. "No one should be alone on Celestmas, that is where your family, little girl," her mom walked over to Dash. "They're dead, I am an orphan," Rainbow Dash said weakly. "Well, that settles it, you're here for the holidays, at minimum," her mom said, a smile on her face. "Thank you so much!!!" Rainbow said, giving Gilda's mom a hug. "Not a problem, just go into the bathroom and wash up," her mom said, pointing to a white door. "Yes ma'am," Rainbow said, she wasn't for being the polite type, but she was just invited to live with her new friend. "Oh, and um, what's your name?" her mom asked. "My name is Rainbow Dash," Rainbow said with a shy smile. "That's a neat name, my name is Sarah Feather," Sarah said. "Sarah, Ffffeather!!!, are you related to Madge feather?" Rainbow said, the last name of feather struck a bolt of fear in her heart. "Why yes, she is my cousin, why?" Mrs. Feather asked. "Umm, no reason, I think I uh, know her," Rainbow sort of lied. "She'll be here in two days, isn't that nice, you two can catch up," Mrs. Feather said. "Are you married?" Rainbow asked, curious as she was looking at a photo of Gilda, Ms. Feather, and a red stallion. "Yes, I've been married for seven and a half years," Mrs. Feather said. "That's cool," Rainbow said as she washed up, when she was done, she walked into her bedroom, it was painted light blue, and had some bookshelves, and a single twin bed against the far wall. "Dinner is ready!" Mrs. Feather said, leaning out of the kitchen. Gilda and Rainbow Dash ran into the kitchen, where they were greeted by Mrs and Mr. Feather, Mr. Feather looked at Rainbow and said, "You must be Rainbow Dash," he held out a hoof, Rainbow accepted and shook his hoof. "Yes I am Mr. Feather," Rainbow said, blushing slightly. "Well, let's have a great dinner shall we?" Mr. Feather said as they all sat down around the table. The dinner they all ate that night consisted of shrimp, broccoli and cheese casserole, which surprisingly, Rainbow dash loved, and mashed potatoes. "Dinner was delicious, thank you," Rainbow said to Mr. and Mrs. Feather. "You're welcome," Mrs. Feather said. "I'm very tired from the last few days, I am going to go to bed early," Rainbow said with a yawn. "Okay, see you i the morning," Mrs. Feather said, rising from the table, along with Mr. Feather, who took the dishes to the sink. Rainbow went to her bed, half expecting to wake up still under that bridge, or well, not wake up, but still be under the bridge. That night Rainbow drempt of her old family, which made her scream out for her mom in the middle of the night. Mrs. Feather came galloping in to her room and said: "Shhh, Shh, what's wrong?" "I, I remembered my family, I'm sorry," Rainbow said, tears falling from her eyes. "it's okay, it's okay," Mrs. Feather said, comforting Rainbow. When Rainbow woke up later in the morning, it was nearly 1 o' clock in the afternoon, and outside her door, there was a bustling of noise. "What's going on?" Rainbow asked, looking at the Feathers' dining room filling up with fancy dishes, the smell of turkey was in the air. "We have some family coming over for dinner, and we're setting up, Gilda is down at the park if you want o go and have fun, our Auntie Rosin is watching her," Mr. Feather said. "Well, that's where I'm going then," Rainbow said, grabbing a scarf. "Alright, but be safe," Mrs. Feather said. Rainbow walked out of the door, down the stairs, toward the park. "Rainbow, what's up?" Gilda said, looking at Rainbow from the top of the slide. "Nothing much, where's Auntie Rosin?" Rainbow asked. "She's right there," Gilda said, pointing towards a vanilla pony with a red mane, Rainbow and Gilda waved, and Rosin waved back. After about three hours of playing and talking, Gilda and Rainbow were tuckered out, they and Rosin went back to the apartment, where a nearly full table was waiting, only three seats were empty, one for Rosin, one for Gilda, and even one for Rainbow Dash. :"YOU!!" Madame Feather said, pointing a hoof at Rainbow. "What, you!" Rainbow had forgotten that Madame Feather was coming. "This was the little demon I told you about!!" Madame Feather said, looking at Mrs. Feather. "She has been very polite, in fact, I, Sarah Feather, would like to adopt her," Mrs. Feather said. "What, you can't!!" Madame Feather said. 'Why not?" Rainbow and Mrs. feather said in unison, both irritated. "Because, she, she has a single relative, an aunt in fact, she lives in Cloudsdale," Madame Feather said. Rainbow looked at Sarah, then at Madame Feather, and said, "Really!!!" Rainbow was so excited. "Yes, that's why I was chasing you," Madame Feather said, faltering a little. "So when do I meet her?" Rainbow asked. "I will take you right now," Madame Feather said, walking out the door, as they were leaving, Rainbow said, "I will see you again someday, and you were all the family I hadn't had in a long time, thank you," "I'll miss you Dash," Gilda said, tears forming. "I'll miss you too," Rainbow said, tears welling up in her eyes too. "I'll be back in about twenty minutes," Madame Feather said. Madame Feather walked out the door, and headed for a cart, Rainbow got in back, knowing that she would wake up with her family.
Applejack"Your turn Applejack," Twilight said, pointing a hoof at Applejack. "Well, I reckon that my favorite Celestmas was about seven years ago..." Applejack started. "Mama, when's Little Apple gonna be born?" Applejack asked her mother, who was pregnant with AppleBloom at this time. "Her name is not Little Apple, It's AppleBloom," her mother, Whinoa, responded, she rubbed her very inflated stomach. "Can it pleeaasse be Little Apple, pleeaasse!" Applejack pleaded, on her knees. "No, your grandmother and Ah have already decided," her mother said, looking seriously at Applejack. "But Big Macintosh named me after cereal!!!" Applejack said in a whine. "No, he didn't, your father did," her mother said still chuckling a little. "It is good cereal!" her father walked into the room, laughing. "Alright, now Ah can't be stressed, it's bad for the baby," her mom said, rubbing her stomach. "Fine, Ah'll go find Big Macintosh, Ah'm starving!!!" Applejack said, rubbing her empty stomach. Applejack walked out of the house, only to find Big Macintosh, Caramel, and Braeburn playing hoofball,a silly little game where you get a 'pigskin' as they call it , to a special zone, but the other players had to tackle the person with the ball. "Hey Applejack," Caramel said, forgetting that he was about to be tackled by Big Macintosh, he was taken dooowwwnnnnnn. "Can Ah play?" Applejack asked, wanting to see what all the fuss of the game was about. "Sure, you're on my team, Caramel, Braeburn, you two are on a team now," Macintosh said as he grabbed the ball off the ground. "Hey sis, catch!" Macintosh threw the ball directly at Applejack, she braced for impact. The impact never came, instead she heard laughing from Caramel and Braeburn. "Ha ha, Applejack, you're supposed to catch it, not let Braeburn get it," Macintosh said laughing. "Eh, sorry, gimme another chance, 'cept this time, Ah throw," Applejack said, taking the ball from Braeburn. "Deal," Macintosh said, staying near Applejack, waiting to catch her bad throw. Applejack threw the ball, it zoomed passed Macintosh, Braeburn, and Caramel, it drilled itself into a hill. Macintosh's jaw dropped he looked at his sister, and then back to the hill, and then back to his sister. "Sis', Ah didn't know you could throw that well," Macintosh said, his jaw still down. "Well, Ah'll be," Braeburn said, his jaw still down too. "SOUPS ON, come inside!" Granny Smith yelled from the window. All four of them walked into the house and sat at the HUGE dining table, it went Applejack, Applejack's mother, Applejack's father, Big Macintosh, Braeburn, Caramel, Granny Smith, Golden Delicious, Red Delicious, Apple Fritter, and then there was Apple Turnover. "Alright, we should thank Granny Smith for this fine dinner," said Apple Fritter, raising his glass of Apple Cider. Everyone at the table raised their glasses in unison, after the toast, there were many conversations going, including bragging about how she could throw better than any of the boys. "Yep, Granny I sure did, It flew right past all of them," Applejack said, a mouthful of breads. Granny smiled and said, "Now Applejack, I think that's amazing, but don't go bragging," "Okay granny, Ah won't, Ah promise," Applejack always kept her promises. Throughout the rest of the inner, the excitement in the room steadily increased, everyone knew what happened after dinner, they each opened one present, that was another Apple family tradition. "Looks like Granny Smith hasn't lost her touch," Braeburn said loudly, getting a laugh from everypony. "Now child, you haven't gotten a present yet, so don't sas," granny Smith smiled. "Alright, Applejack, pick one," Applejack's mother said. "I pick..." Applejack was interrupted. "Oooh, ahhhhhhhhhhh!" Applejack's mother was holding her stomach. "She's going into labor!" Applejack's father exclaimed, pushing everypony back. Her father ran to the phone and called Nurse Redheart, who would arrive in a few minutes. "Granny Smith, what in the hay is going on?" Applejack asked, receiving a smack from her granny. "Now, Ah don't want to hear you say that again ya hear?" Granny Smith said sternly, Applejack nodded. "Your mother is giving birth to AppleBloom," Granny Smith said, trying to fully assess their situation. A few minutes of confusion and her mother screaming passed before Nurse Redheart arrived. "Now miss, I am going to need you to push okay?" Nurse Redheart said, holding Applejack's mother's hoof and looking into her eyes. Applejack's mother nodded and Screamed, then Applejack heard the sound of a newborn Filly crying. Applejack adn Big Macintosh looked past the crowd, the saw a tiny, newborn, vanilla filly with red hair. "AppleBloom!" Applejack said, resulting in a weak smile from her mother. "Mama, what's wrong?" Applejack asked, feeling a sudden sense of urgency. "Applejack, I..I am dying, I love you, your brother, your father, and Granny Smith, and the rest of the family," Applejack's mother drifted off into a deep sleep, a sleep that she would never awake from. "Mama, wake up mama, wake up, wake up," Applejack's eyes were pouring tears, she was shaking her mother, who just wouldn't wake up, her eyes stay closed, her heart stay still, her children stay strong. "Now Applejack," Granny Smith p a hoof on Applejack's shoulder, only to receive a look of determination, a determination to make mama wake up. "Applejack, she's dead, please understand, she won't come back," Granny Smith said, crying tears, tears that she had never seen before. "No, she can't be, she CAN"T BE!!" Applejack screamed, and then she collapsed onto the floor. The next morning, Applejack awoke in her bed, sweating heavy beads of sweat, panicked, she ran down to Granny Smith who was looking out the window with the thousand yard stare. "Grandma, did mom, did she.." Applejack asked, but was cut off by a slow depressed nod from Granny Smith, they ran to each other and hugged. A week passed until the funeral, it was a dark, stormy day, first day of the new year, at the funeral, everyone who was in the family showed up, where she was standing, she could see everyone, but then a little puppy ran up to Applejack, licking her foreleg, she picked the little pup up and said: "I'm gonna call you Winona," Applejack said as she hugged the puppy, who licked her face. "That was the saddest story I've ever ever heard," Pinkie said, tears in her eyes. "How was that your best Celestmas?" Rainbow asked, depressed. "Because, Ah got my little sister, she has blessed mah world, ya see Ah learned later that my mama was already gonna die, but she gave me my little sister fist, and that's why it was my Best Celestmas," Applejack said, pulling AppleBloom in for a hug, slightly crying. . "Alright, Rarity your turn..." Twilight said, fighting back tears.
Rarity"Well, my best Celestmas was probably 11 years ago..." Rarity said. "YAY, Celestmas morning!!" rarity, still a filly, ran into her living room, where her parents were waiting by a very well decorated tree. "Now Rarity, we got two really big gifts, but only those two okay?' her mother stressed. Rarity nodded, trying to get at the rather large box sitting in front of the tree. She arrived at the box, which was about as big as her.and she opened it. Rarity gasped,"Yay, this is just what I wanted, nothing could be better!" "What about this?" Rarity's father pulled out a small box. "Doubt it,' Rarity said, when she opened the box,"TICKETS AND A VIP TO THE SAPPHIRE SHORES CONCERT!!!" Rarity ran over to her parents, crying, and gave them a hug. "Now, look at the date on the ticket," her mother said. "That's today!!, at 8:00!!" Rarity said, screaming like a fanmare. "Yep, I'm gonna take you," her mother said, giving Rarity a hug. "Sweet!!!" Rarity said, losing her cool for a moment. Rarity gave her mother a gift, she had made her a scarf, which actually wasn't bad, and her fathers gift, she had wanted to give him a blanket, but with sleeves, but she always added an extra sleeve, right where the head was supposed to be. So Rarity had decided to give him a t-shirt that said 'I'm here to kick butt, and chew bubblegum, and I'm out of bubblegum'. They then went to Rarity's grandmothers, Granny Fash. who lived on the outskirts of Canterlot. "Hello daughter, and little Rarity," Grandma Fash said, giving little Rarity a hug. "Hey Grandma!" Rarity said, hugging back, "your cousin Frye-Frye is here, go say hi to her," Rarity nodded and walked to the family room and saw everyone, and there was Frye-Frye. "Cousin Rarity," Frye-Frye said as she ran up to her cousin and gave her a strangling hug. "Cousin Frye, what have you been up to?" Rarity said, noticing her cousin had several scratches all around her body. "Oh, I have been trying to get my Cutie Mark!" Frye-Frye said, showing Rarity her blank flank. "In what, demolition?" Rarity asked lamely. "Nope, I've been making a tv show, called Galaxy Mares," Frye-Frye said, showing Rarity a picture of a vanilla pony with brown hair. "That sounds interesting, but I have to catch up with cousin Mayhoof," Rarity lied, she wasn't really interested, but she did kind of want to talk to cousin Mayhoof. Cousin Mayhoof was a little colt who had the nack of getting into trouble, a paddle at his school had his name on it over 100 times, whixh was nowhere compared to his friend Tater, who had his name on that paddle at least 250 times. "Hey there Cousin Mayhoof," Rarity said as she walked up to Mayhoof, who was shaking his presents, trying to figure out what was in them. "Oh, hey Rare," Rare was her pet name for him. "What'cha doing?" Rarity asked, looking for conversation. "Meh, trying to figure out what Grandma got me for Celestmas," Mayhoof said, continuing to shake his presents. "Cool, so what have you been up to?" Rarity asked, starting to get bored. "I have just been up to, well actually, I unscrewed the teachers chalkboard and when she wrote on it, it fell off the wal, haha she was so mad," Mayhoof said, rolling on the floor, gasping for breath, laughing. Rarity couldn't help but giggle at the thought, but when grandma Fash walked up, her smile went away because she that Fash had seen Mayhoof shaking his present. "Now Mayhoof, what was that you were doing?" Fash said angrily, staring at Mayhoof. "Umm, just making sure that my present was sturdy," it was a blatent lie, but Granny brushed it off. "No opening presents until the pie is ready," Granny said as she walked off. "Mayhoof, I don't think you should keep shaking the presents, Granny said not to," Rarity said, but Mayhoof didn't listen, he shook one present, and Granny Fash was there, a paddle in her mouth. She pained Mayhoof's rear end red. "Okay, now Rarity youu should open the first present," Granny Fash said, sliding a box to Rarity. "Oh me, okay?' Rarity said, picking up the box, it was heavy, so she put it down and pulled on the bow with her teeth. Rarity finally got the present opened and she jumped back at what she saw, it was a copy of Sapphire Shores' costume, even with the blue jewels. With a gasp, Rarity said, "Thank you grandma, I love it!!" Rarity gave her grandma a hug. "You're welcome," Fash said, chuckling. After much gift-giving, and much more gasps and tears of joy, all the gifts were given out, and boy were there a lot of them. "Alright Rarity, we've got to go if we are to arrive in time for the concert," Rarity's mother said, loading all of the presents into a cart, Rarity ran and trotted right by her mother on the way to the concert. "Heello all of my fans, how are we doing toonight?" Sapphire Shores said with a spunk tune, her concert was about to start, and Rarity was in the front row. With screaming and hollering, Rarity lost her cool, she was one of the wildest fans in the whole arena. After the two hour concert, Rarity returned to her normal self, and just in time, she was about to go backstage to meet Sapphire Shores, the pony of Pop, she couldn't wait. "Hello, Ms. Sapphire Shores?" Rarity was alone, her mom didn't get a backstage pass, but she looked for Sapphire. "Did somebody call me?" Sapphire said, walking from the curtain, away from her encore of her new hit song, which Rarity missed so she would be the only one backstage. "Yes, Ms, ms. Sapphire, I, I'm Rarity, and I'm a huge fan," Rarity said, trembling. "Well hello Rarity," Sapphire said, smiling. Rarity was so astonished that Sapphire acknowledged her, she fainted. "Rarity dear, are you okay?" her mom asked, wiping off her head. "HUH, where's Sapphire, ooh I missed it!" Rarity screamed, crying. "No you didn't child, I'm right here," Sapphire said.
FluttershyRarity ended, a huge smile on her face, an of course Pinkie's too. "Alright Fluttershy, your turn," Twilight whispered, making Fluttershy jump. "Um.....okay Twilight, my favorite Celestmas happened about 5 years ago..." Fluttershy started. Fluttershy woke up, covered in burned wood and other debris, looking around, she saw a light, she crawled for it, she crawled and crawled until she finally reached her destination, it was a small, white cloud. she noticed it was very dark outside, and also very cold, She looked back at her house, it had somehow burned through the night, she shivered. Still not understanding that her house, and her parents were gone, she tried to fly, but she was a very weak flyer, so she was stuck on that little white cloud. "I have to say warm," Fluttershy said to herself, starting to understand that she would die if she didn't stay warm. Fluttershy tried to open the cloud, but it was very tough for her, so she found a small opening and slid her hind legs in, then her stomach, and then her chest. "This will do," Fluttershy said as she was being warmed by a cloud, which was somewhat comforting. Fluttershy laid in that cloud for about thirty minutes when she noticed lights below her, like RIGHT below her. She looked down and saw CloudsDale, the bright sky metropolis was as busy as ever the night before Celestmas, many Pegasi were in a store called CloudsDale empire of circutry, Fluttershy didn't know what that meant. Fluttershy took a chance, which would save ehr life, she slipped herself out of the cloud and started falling, and falling, and then she fluttered her wings, they slowed her down enough so she wouldn't be injured when she hit a snow drift outside a family's house. "What's going on out here!" a very deep voice said, opening the door. "Uncle, it's okay, don't be so paranoid," theat voice, Fluttershy knew that voice,it, it was, ooh she knew it, so she poked her head out of the snowdrift. "Fluttershy, is that you?" the small marfe asked, turning her head. "Yes, I'm sorry, you see, my house burned down earlier..." Fluttershy was cut off by that small mare with Blue hair, and a grey coat, "No, no, come in,, come in, we were just about to have dinner," that mare sadi, Fluttershy still couldn't remember that name. "It's okay, I can just keep going," Fluttershy said weakly, trying to get out of the drift. "You can leave if you can get out of that drift," the mare sadi with a smile. "I, I can't," Fluttershy said, her head down. The mare walked over and pulled her out and put Fluttershy on her hooves. "There, now come in," The mare said, it was Comet, Comet swirl, that was her name, Fluttershy had seen her good natured deeds many times before, they had only talked once. Fluttershy followed Comet in, and her father closed the door behind them. Fluttershy looked at what they had for dinner, it was a salad with blue cheese, ranch dressing, and many other condiments on it, plus there were potatoes, breads, and sweets. "Fluttershy, you need to eat, you look awful, no offense," Comet said, shrugging. "No, it's okay, I'm...........I'm fine," Fluttershy said, looking down at the floor. "Eat," Comet said, pushing a plate with salad and bread on it. Fluttershy reluctantly ate a bite, and with that bite, she tasted a flavor explosion, spices and crisp vegetable flavored breads. She ate another bite, than another, then another, until the piece was gone, then she started to eat the salad, but first she said. "This is very nice, thank you for taking me in tonight," Fluttershy said, Comet smiled, her mouth full of bread. Fluttershy ate a crunchy bite of lettuce, she loved it, she ate and ate at the salad until it was gone, her belly full, she leaned back into her chair. "You like dinner?" Comet asked, her belly full as well. "Yes, very much," Fluttershy said with a hiccup. Her father walked towards the fridge, and on top was a large pumpkin pie, which he then placed the pie on the table, popped the top off and the smell of the frsh baked pie filled the room. "Well, Fluttershy is it, are you ready for pie?" the stallion, her father asked. "Well, maybe just a little piece," Fluttershy said, giving Comet's father her plate. "A little piece, okay," her father said, cutting the prefect piece out for Fluttershy, who gladly accepted the piece of pie. "Mmmmmm," Fluttershy said taking a bite, it warmed her whole body, it felt as is she had eaten a piece of heaven. "Glad you like it," Comet said, eating a piece of her own. "I love it, it's.,,,,,lovely," Fluttershy said, eating another bite. The pie was eaten with much happiness for the next hlf hour before her father said, "Alright girls, time to go to bed, you don't want to make Santa miss this house do you?" her father said, chuckling, he knew both of the girls didn't believe in Santa hooves anymore, Comet had stopped believing in Santa when she was nine, and Fluttershy had stopped believing when she was ten thanks to Comet. Both Fluttershy and Comet went into Comet's room, it had her bed and a futon, Fluttershy slept on the futon. "Goodnight Comet," Fluttershy yawned. "Goodnight Fluttershy," Comet sighed, she snuggled down into her blankets. Fluttershy had sweet dreams the rest of the night, the five hours of sleep she did get before a noise woke her up, was someone inside their house, who was it? "Pssst, Comet, who's in your house, moving around?" Fluttershy asked, recieving a loud groan from Comet who said, "Just my mom, she works nights," "We should get up," comet sprang to life, jumping out of her bed. Fluttershy didn't question, she tip-hoofed down the hallway, as they neared Comet's parents' door, Fluttershy realized what they were about to do. "Wake up!!! IT'S CELESTMAS MORNING!!!" Comet said as her and Fluttershy jumped on the bed, her parents laughing and the two mares giggling. "Go back to bed," her mother said, laughing, trying to push Comet onto her father. "No get up, mama, mom, mum, mommy, mummy, ma, ma, m, m, " Comet continued until her mother and father were in the living room, sitting on the sofa, while Comet opened her presents, she got a WonderBolts suit, which she loved the most, plus six other gifts. "Fluttershy, we have one for you too," her mother said as she pulled out a special cage, one that could be on clouds, in it a special white bunny. "I love him," Fluttershy said as she nuzzled the tiny bunny with her hoof. "I will call him Bunny, Angel Bunny," Fluttershy said. Wow, that sounds like a cool night," Rainbow said. "Alright now... me, huh, it's my turn," Twilight said with a smile.
Twilight"Well, here goes, my best Celestmas was about 4 years ago...." Twilight started. "Now Twilight, when are you going home for Celestmas?" Princess Celestia asked, looking over Twilight's shoulder and reading along with her in her copy of obscure unicorn history, she was about to get to the main biography of Starswirl the bearded. "I will when my parents get here princess," Twilight said princess with a sense of royalty, causing a chuckle from Princess Celestia. "Alright, but you can't take this whole library with you okay/' Princess Celestia joked. "Haha, okay Princess," Twilight laughed. Princess Celestia walked out of Twilight's study, when she did, twilight pulled out what she had been waiting to read, but was unsure of what Celestia would think. Twilight pulled out a book called Special Magic: The many arts of transportation. Twilight immediately turned to the page on teleportation, she had been reading up on it for a while now, but she had witnessed the spell only once before, in a quick video in magic kindergarten, "Oh wow, this is gonna be harder than I expected," Twilight said, examining the spell, she knew she wouldn't be able to do it yet, but she tried. BOOM!!!!!!!!! A shelf exploded, sending books flying everywhere, she tried again, she levitated a pen, and it caught aflame, it seemed every time she tried, something broke. "Okay, one more time," she said aloud, she tried, a bright purple aura exploded out of her horn adn around her, she was taken from reality, and transported through a black nothing, she appeared ten feet away. "I DID IT!!!" Twilight said, jumping up and down, flailing her arms back and forth. "Good job," Twilight froze, was that, P-Princess Celestia, she turned around, it was. "I-I'm so sorry Princess," Twilight said, making herself as small as possible. "Sorry, why are you sorry, you're very young, and I'm impressed that you can already teleport, I didn't learn that for years," Princess Celestia said with her kind voice. "Thank you princess, that means a lot," Twilight slowly rose. "But I'm disappointed that you never told me you took that book," princess Celestia levitated the book and tucked it under her wing. "I didn't think you would miss it," Twilight said, instantly regretting that she took it. "All is well, you're not in trouble, just tell me next time,"Princess Celestia said, and she continued, "Your parents won't make it tonight, but they did send you one of these," Celestia revealed a large gist, it was wrapped in blue and purple. "They insist that you wait until tomorrow," Celestia halted twilight, who nodded and then she went back down to study. "You're welcome to join me at dinner, if you want," Celestia put her hoof an Twilight's shoulder, who gave her a sad look, and shook her head. "No thanks Princess," Twilight said, she just wanted to be alone, sadness consumed her. The Princess left her alone, and she cried for hours, she hadn't seen her mom or dad in sixteen months, she didn't listen to Celestia, she pulled the gift closer, wanting to open iit, she couldn't resist. The box contained a stuffed pony doll that read smarty pants, and it came with a notepad and quill, when she hugged it, hoping for relief, it gave her a sudden boost of energy, her horn ignited. "What's going on!!!" Twilight screamed. Twilight's body disappeared, it going through darkness again, but this time, she stopped in the defense of a wall, which exploded, sending her continuing through the darkness. "AAHHHH!!!!!" Twilight screamed, and she met another exploding wall. "Twilight, Twilight are you okay!!!" Princess Celestia yelled, rushing over to her student. "Celestia, what?" Twilight was confused, she had just teleported through all of the castle's magical defenses, that's what the exploding walls were. Twilight then realized where she was, she was in the royal dining room, in front of the Princess, Nobles, and Lords. "Twilight Sparkle, how did you do that, you teleported through our magical defenses, I can't even do that," Princess Celestia said, her voice sounding shocked. "I just did it, I don't know," Twilight said weakly, looking up at Celestia, who was still shocked. "Well, that will have to be fixed, what happened while you were teleporting?" Princess Celestia asked, not paying attention to the new conversation at the table. "I'm sorry princess Celestia, I just-" Twilight was stammering when the Princess said, "Twilight, it's okay,nothing's wrong, please, join us for dinner," the Princess said kindly, pulling out an empty seat for Twilight. "Yes Princess," Twilight said hastily, assigning herself into that seat. "Now, everypony, this is twilight Sparkle, the young one who I was telling you about," princess Celestia said, Twilight receiving many hellos and greetings. A large flame erupted from the table and Celestia's pet, Philomena, appeared, carrying a note from the royal outpost near the Griffon border. "Ladies, gentlecolts, I will be back momentarily," Princess Celestia said, exiting the room. "So, Ms. Sparkle, do you find being princess Celestia's prodigy fascinating?" A large blue mare asked, looking keenly at Twilight. "Well, I wouldn't say her Prodigy, but her being my mentor, it is very nice," Twilight forced a smile. Through a half an hour of questioning, twilight was very relieved when Celestia returned to the dinner table. "Well, time to eat," Celestia said, twenty dishes of food appeared in a second, all filled with delicious food, breads, salads, sweet apples, and pastas. All of the royalty ate the meal in near silence, which made Twilight uncomfortable, aside from the few two pony conversations that were held, dinner was silent. When dinner finally ended,all of the Nobles and Lords left. . "Twilight, you should go to bed," Princess Celestia said, then she yawned. "Alright," twilight said, looking down the passageway, Celestia escorted twilight down the passageway adn out side her room she said, "Merry Celestmas Twilight," Twilight walked through her doors, she found Spike sleeping in his bed, so she lay down in her bed, and visions of sugarplums danced in her head. "Gosh Twilight, that sounds mighty fine," Applejack said, her yawn was loud and close to follow. "Yeah you win," Rainbow then dosed off. "Well, i for one, still, yes ma'am you win," Rarity said. Pinkie and Fluttershy were already asleep, so Twilight lay down under a heavy blanket, and like a cloud, it comforted her, not abandonment, not death, not even hate could move her. She was with friends, Fluttershy was home, Rainbow with her family, Pinkie had the party, Rarity had the friendship, Applejack had her Family, especially her little sister, who was snuggled in Applejack's arms, and twilight, twilight had the magic. The end,,, maybe Thank ll of you for reading this, send me the name of a pony who you want to be in the next few chapters.
Celestia and Luna"May we tell ours?" Luna asked as she and Celestia walked through the doorway. "Princesses!" Twilight exclaimed as everypony bowed for them. "Well?" Celestia asked. "Of course!" Twilight said. "Alright," Luna started, "Mine was 2998 years ago..." "Mommy, why does Celestia get a holiday, and I don't?" Luna whined. "You will get a holiday very soon Luna." their mother, Galagos, said. "It's not fair!" Luna yelled, looking at the ceiling. "Shush!" Galagos said, putting a hoof in front of her mouth. "Luna, guess what tomorrow is!" Celestia said. "What?" Luna asked, sighing. "Memas!" Celestia jumped, a huge smile on her face. "What?" Luna was confused. "Get it, Celest," Celestia gestured to herself, "Celestmas!" Luna walked to her room, hoping the day would just end, her sister had been bragging about getting a holiday for months now. Every day, she went on and on, I have a holiday, you don't she was tired of it. "Luna, Luna, come here!" Celestia said as she ran in to Luna's room. "If your bragging about your holiday, shut up!" Luna said loudly. "No, mom wants you," Celestia was bouncing around like Pinkie Pie. "Fine," Luna said lamely. Luna walked out of her room, led by Celestia, she walked up to her mother. "Luna, i know that you want a holiday, so I have given you one, since one day you will become goddess of the night, your holiday is Nightmare Night," Galagos said, a smile on her face. "Really!?!" Luna jumped ten feet in the air, running around, yelling yay. "When is it?" Luna asked, a smile still on her face. "October 31st," Galagos said. "Awesome!!" Luna said, October 31st was her birthday, so she loved that day. "I knew you'd like it," Galagos said. "Now, time for bed, Celestmas is tomorrow," Galagos said, looking at an excited Celestia. The two little fillies ran to their rooms, and Galagos went to Luna's room first. "I love you Luna, I am glad that you like your holiday," Galagos said, she kissed Luna on the cheek, and Luna gave her a hug. "Goodnight Luna," Galagos said, walking out of Luna's room, shutting the door quietly. Galagos walked into Celestia's room next, she bent over and kissed Celestia's cheek, Celestia was already asleep, so Galagos said, "Sleep tight my little angels," Galagos walked, and she sat in the living room for a moment, adn then she went off to bed, needing sleep for her speech in the morning. She was the Queen after all. "I thought you hated Nightmare Night?" Twilight said. "No, only after they made it about Nightmare moon," Luna said, looking at Twilight. "That was awesome, I mean, you got a holiday!!" Pinkie said, a huge smile on her face. "Princess Celestia, do you have one?" Twilight asked. "Well, if i must, my favorite Celestmas was one year ago..." Celestia started. Celestia and Luna sat there, enjoying the Celestmas party dinner, Luna wasn't quite adjusted to many people's company, she looked a bit uncomfortable. Celestia walked over to her and said, "Sister, it's been three months, I know you were gone for a thousand years, but you still seem uncomfortable around more than two people," Celestia said. "it's not that, I mean it is just that i am uncomfortable, I remember how cold it was on the moon, and it is nearing that temperature now, and memories are coming back," Luna said. "I have an idea," Celestia walked over to the chefs, and asked them, "My sister is uncomfortable, can you bring her a warm drink, and turn the heat up a little," "No problem Princess," the chef said, immediately going in to the kitchen to brew up a warm cup of tea, Luna's favorite was hot green tea. The chef brought the hot cup of tea to Luna, who gladly accepted it, she drank it, even though it was near boiling, she looked less uncomfortable, but still, something was off. "Celestia, can I ralk to you?" Luna asked. "Yes, what's wrong/" Celestia asked. "Well, I am not feeling well, i mean I am not sick, but I feel off," Luna said. "Is it something to do with the moon?" Celestia asked, looking at the large, full moon. "Possibly, can you close the drapes?" Luna asked. "Yes," Celestia closed the drapes, the room darkened a bit, but nothing very noticeable, Luna perked up a bit. "Thank you sister," Luna said. When the party ended, the sisters went to the main room on the third floor, they watched movies for a little while, hen Luna became tired, Celestia accompanied her to her room. "Goodnight Celestia," Luna said. "Goodnight," Celestia said, turning off the lights, "my little angel," Celestia cleaned up the main room, turned off the movie, and retired to her own room. The next morning, they awoke around the same time, Celestia looked outside, as always, she had the weather ponies drop four inches of white powdery snow. "Merry Celestmas sister," Celestia said with a yawn. "I got you a present," Luna said, giving a little box to Celestia. "Oh, you did, what is it,"Celestia opened it, it was some black powder, she looked up at Luna, who was smiling. "Philomena," Luna said, the ash floated up n the air, and it formed into a new Phoenix. "I love it,' Celestia said, looking back at Luna. "I have something for you too," Celestia actually did, she handed a book over to Luna, Luna opened it, it was an old scrapbook from their childhood, she gave Celestia a hug. Luna had lost a lot of her memories, thanks to Nightmare Moon, but this would help her get them back. "Wow, that was an amazing story," Fluttershy said, she had loved it. "Thank you," Celestia knew how shy Fluttershy was, so she knew it took a lot to get her to say that. "I'm glad you could make it to my party,' pinkie said, looking at Celestia, and then Luna. "You're not starting without I, are you?" the blue mare said as she entered the library.
Pinkie PieThe following recount of Celestmas takes place six months before Pinkie meets Twilight. "Mommy, Daddy, Brother, Sister, it's so good for you to come to Ponyville for the holidays," Pinkie said excitedly as her family walked into Sugarcube corner, all of whom were surprised by how decorated it was, with streamers, balloons, a banner that said 'Merry Celestmas' and even a big ol' Celestmas tree, that had a bunch of colorful lights and more streamers. "We're all glad to be here sister," her first sister, Bleusome said. "I have been waiting to see where you moved to, this is a very nice little town," Pinkie's mother, Dianne said looking at the tree. "Me and Paps agree, this is a nice little town," Pinkie's sister Greenery, said, looking around the bakery. "Dad, what's wrong?" Pinkie asked, putting a hoof on her father's shoulder. "He hasn't been talking very much since the farm got foreclosed," Diane said, looking down at the floor. "I thought you got the farm back," Pinkie looked at Diane. "We did, but it burned about a week later, the silo was hit by lightning, and it collapsed onto the house. so we've been living at Greenery's ever since," Diane said, tears brimming in her eyes. "Why didn't you tell me?' Pinkie asked, sounding stressed. "We didn't want to worry you, but it's okay, your father and I are pulling double shifts at the local coal mines to buy a new farm, it shouldn't take long," Diane said, a weak smile, but a smile, Pinkie loved smiles. "Here, let me show you your rooms," Pinkie said, gesturing for them to follow her upstairs. After bouncing up the stairs, with her family walking ever so slowly behind her, she finally got them to there rooms, her mom and dad would be in her room, and her two sisters would be in the guestroom, but her, she would get to sleep in the Cakes' room. Later that day, Pinkie's mother Diane, walked downstairs and started to talk to her daughter, but something was up, she seemed excited, too excited, which caught Pinkie's attention. "Pinkimena, could you come up to see me and your father for a moment?" "Sure, why?" pinkie asked, following her mother up the stairs, bouncing of course. "Well, your father and I wanted to wait, but we have a surprise for you!" Diane said, adding a little tune. Pinkie opened the door and sitting there was her father with a box in his lap, he outstretched his old forelegs, Pinkie took the box and opened it, inside was a little tube with some stringy stuff. "What is it?" Pinkie asked confused, looking up to her mother. "Take it out then you'll see," her father said excitedly, which surprised Pinkie since she hadn't ever seen him so excited, not even hen he went to her parties when she was a little filly. Pinkie took out the tube and discovered it had a pull string, and that you were supposed to put the stringy stuff inside it, she followed the directions and pulled the string, the strings shot out in a burst of colorfulness that Pinkie hadn't ever seen, aside from that mysterious rainbow that she had gotten her Cutie Mark from. "Neat-O, I love it!" she said, still amazed by the colors, she grabbed her mom and dad for a hug. "Oh and could you cook this little critter up for dinner?" her father asked, pulling out a tiny alligator, who had no teeth and big purple eyes. "Why would I cook him, he's adorable!" Pinkie exclaimed, pulling the alligator from her father's hooves. "He's an alligator!" her father said, a little to loud. "Yeah, a baby, toothless alligator!" Pinkie said, nuzzling the tiny reptile. Diane looked at Pinkie's father, who sighed a big sigh and said: "Fine, you can keep him," Pinkie looked at the alligator and said, "I'm gonna call you Gummy!" "Ooh, my friend Rarity has close connections to Canterlot, so I got you two this!" Pinkie said, a piece of paper in her hooves. Diane read the letter aloud, "I, Princess Celestia of Equestria do hereby order that Diane and Roger Pie receive the area that used to be called Pie Rock Farms, in addition, I say that the Silo and farmhouse are to be rebuilt free of charge of the Pies," Diane and Roger just stared at Pinkie, an uncomfortable silence filling the room, Pinkie just lloked at her mother then her father. "Is something wrong?" Pinkie asked, but was nearly cut off ny a hug from her mother and father, and Gummy clamping on to her mane. "You got our old farm back," her mother said, crying tears of joy. "I've never been so happy!" her father said, getting a look form her mother that said 'What is that supposed to mean' written all over it. "Aside from our wedding day of course, and the birth of our kids," her father said nervously, rubbing the back of his head. "Well, let's have the most super spectacular Celestmas EVER!" Pinkie said, leading her mother and father downstairs, where her brother and sister were already waiting. "What's going on, why are you in such a good mood all of a sudden dad?" Greenery asked, looking at her father, who, for the first time in moths, had a HUGE grin that threatened to split his face in half. "Pinkie just got our farm back!" her father said, pulling them all in for a group hug. "Now way, how?" Greenery asked, intrigued. "Well, her friend, who has connections in Canterlot, put in a word, and the Princess followed through," Diane said cheerfully, her eyes still wet. "Well, we better hit the hay, it's getting late," Pinkie said with a yawn. "Before dinner, are you crazy!?!" her father said, receiving a laugh from all. The dinner they ate that night, well actually they just had a bunch of pies, bread, and cakes. All five of them, adn Gummy, enjoyed dinner but the best was yet to come. "Alright, I made this myself," Pinkie said, revealing an amazing looking pumpkin pie, it had a can of whipped cream literally lodged in the center of it. "As much as I just ate, I still have room for a slice of pie," Pinkie's father said, a slight smile on his face. "Alright anyone else?" Pinkie asked, receiving a hoof in the air from everypony. Pinkie sliced the pie into five and gave everyone a piece, but she gave Gummy some pie flavored Jell-o, he was a baby after all. "That pie was delicious," Greenery said, wiping her lips. "Yes ma'am, it was," her mother said. "mmm hmm," pinkie's father was still eating. "I loved it," Bleusome said. "Well, time to go to bed," pinkie said, with a huge yawn. "Okay," her father said, leaving the table with her mother. "Gosh Pinkie, that sounds like a pretty fun Celestmas, but I bet mine beats ya!" Rainbow Dash said, pointing a hoof at Pinkie.

The Great and Powerful Trixie"Trixie!" Applejack said, gripping Rainbow's tail in her teeth before Rainbow could reach her. "Yes, it is I, The Great and Powerful Trixie, here attending your 'party," Trixie said. "Well, in that case, do you want to tell your favorite Celestmas story?" Twilight asked. "Fine," Trixie said. "The Great and Powerful Trixie's favorite Celestmas happened when she was just a liltle filly,"Trixie started. "Probably earlier than Celestia's" Rainbow said, receiving a laugh from all, except Trixie. "Mom, it's Celestmas morning, and Trixie wants to open presents!" Trixie jumped into her mom's bed, bouncing up and down. A long story later! and then that's the last time I saw my family. Trixie walked away from her burning house. "Trixie!" ______________________________________________________________________________ "What!" Trixie shouted as Rainbow broke her concentration. Rainbow pointed a hoof at the door, Trixie's mother and father were waiting, and Trixie ran up to them, and they hugged. "This Celestmas!" Half assed, and a year late, but its here!
