For Princess Twilight Sparkle, today started out like any other day.

She got up, had a shower, put her regalia on, had breakfast, made a checklist of the day's activities, double-checked the checklist and then sat down with a book - as was her forte - while waiting for her friends to arrive.

But after a while, it became apparent that her friends weren't going to turn up. So, with a sigh, Twilight put her book away and went outside. Taking in a lungful of crisp, fresh air, she pondered where her first stop was going to be.

Author's Note

And so begins my newest collaborative story. I'm sorry about all the chapter breaks, but I felt it was the best way to credit everyone who took part.

I hope you enjoy reading this as much as we did writing it.

Warning: Randomness ahead.
