Princess Celestia does not wish to be lonely, but after a few centuries, it starts to wear on you. One day, she receives a message that fills her with both hope and dread: The Summer Sun Celebration is going to be the one thousandth.
That means that her sister is going to come back.
Unfortunately, she's Nightmare Moon.

While all of Celestia's drama is going on, what does Twilight think of her current living arrangements?

A small look at what the first couple of episodes could have looked like had they not been compressed into 2 20 minute episodes, written to see what Twilight thinks during her first few days in Ponyville, and to see what I think Celestia was doing for forty minutes. My first ever published story.
