The Unexpected Part 1by Bringer of DespairChaptersChapter 1Chapter 2Author's NoteChapter 3Chapter 1It was a beautiful Spring day in Canterlot, and all the nobles, the Elements of Harmony and Twilight’s parents were all gathered in the Canterlot Royal Gardens. Princesses Celestia and Luna stood on a large wooden stage in front of the seats where all the guests had gathered. The stage was decorated with bright blue and purple flowers. A podium stood at the front, and a large red curtain hung at the back, hiding whatever was behind it. On the other side of the curtain, a few anxious handmaidens were busily preparing the pony-of-honor for her big day. “We are almost done with your make-up Twilight. Just a little bit more eye liner and you will be ready for your coronation” Rarity said just as they finished with Twilight’s make-up. “Thank you for helping me get ready for this day ladies, it really means a lot.” Twilight said after they finished. Twilight moved to her position behind the curtain as Celestia prepared to start Twilight's coronation as the newest princess of Equestria and co-ruler of the night. ****4 YEARS EARLIER**** Twilight was practicing a new spell that allows her to change into any creature she can think of. This spell would be able to go into other border lining countries to get valuable information about threats or future peace and trade documents without being detected as a pony. The downside to the spell is that it uses a lot of magic to cast. If the spell is done incorrectly or something misfires, the results cannot be undone. If it is done correctly, the caster can hold the spell without any use of magic after it is cast. The reason Twilight was practicing the spell was to help the Equestrian Army to get the information they needed from the countries that pose a great threat to Equestria. “I hope Shining Armor knew what he was doing when he asked me to find a spell that will help the safety of Equestria.” Twilight said to herself, doing her best to concentrate. “This spell may have been easy to find, but looking at what it says in the book, this is a spell made to be used by unicorns of a greater level than I am.” She was right, the spell was originally created by Starswirl the Bearded shortly before he died. Even Princess Celestia gets weak after using the spell. ‘So many things could go wrong if I mess up this spell...’ she thought to herself as she started charging up her horn to start the spell. ‘...I could turn into a gryphon or a minotaur and not be able to turn back.’ Just as she was casting the spell, Rainbow Dash burst into the library through an open window. As she burst through the window, Twilight was casting the spell and got thrown across the room into a wall. She hit the wall with such force, she was out cold for five minutes. As she was waking up, she saw a rainbow mane and two magenta eyes staring at her with worry showing in them. “Twilight... Twilight, are you okay. I didn't mean to make you mess...” she said before she trailed off staring at Twilight as she was getting up. “...up your magic. Um, Twilight, when did you get to be the same height as Princess Luna? And how long have you had wings?” Twilight stared at Rainbow incredulously, “What are you talking about?” she asked. “I have always been about the same height as you, and I am a unicorn and have never had wings.” she said matter-of-factly. Rainbow just gave her a look that said ‘Really, you’re that naive to notice you’re staring at the top of my head.’ “Just look behind you and tell there are no wings. Then turn back and face me and tell me how much of my head you see.” “Fine, I’ll look behind me and prove to you...that...there...are...no...wings.” she said as she looked behind her to find two rather large lavender wings. “I told you you had wings. Now do my other request.” Rainbow said. Twilight looked at her with an incredulous glare. “I see your rainbow mane and tail, your eyes, and the top of your back.” Twilight said not getting what Rainbow was saying. “You mean to tell me that you can’t notice you’re not looking at me eye-to-eye anymore.” Rainbow said with annoyance in her voice. “Now that you mention, I can see that now. But if I now have wings, and am taller doesn't that mean my horn is longer too.” Twilight said with slight panic in her voice. Rainbow thought about that for a moment, which is something she doesn't normally do, she looked at a picture of their group of friends then back at Twilight. “It actually is slightly longer than it was before.” Twilight started to panic as she was trying to think of any other explanation rather than the obvious. Sadly she couldn't think of another explanation and tried her best to relax which wasn't working. “Rainbow, do you know what this means?” Twilight asked her friend. “What does this mean Twi’?” Rainbow asked, with a puzzled expression on her face. Twilight sighed knowing that would be the answer. “It means, I am now an alicorn Rainbow. It also means that I will have to let Princess Celestia and Luna know what just happened.” “What about Spike and the rest of our friends? How are you going to let them know what’s going on?” Rainbow asked, starting to sound a little worried. “I don’t know. All I know is that I want you to gather our friends here at around 5 today, and I will send a letter to the princess’s and let them know it is an emergency.” Twilight ordered. Rainbow gave a salute and left immediately. ‘I sure hope Princess Celestia and Luna won’t be mad at me.’ Twilight thought to herself as she went to get Spike to send the letter. “Spike… Spike where are you? I need you to send a letter to the princess, it’s an emergency.” She screamed to all of the library. “I’m in the kitchen, what is i…whoa. What happened to you?” Spike asked as he came out of the kitchen. “I’ll explain when all of my friends and the princess’s are here. Now please take a letter and then send to the princess.” Twilight said in the most soothing voice she could muster at the time. Author's Note: I will change this chapter out with the edited version as soon as my proof-reader/editor sends me the revised copy of it. His story will be up soon, so be sure to check out Superbal-117's story when it is up and running. Chapter 2While Spike was getting the ink, quill and parchment, Twilight was thinking about what to write to Princess Celestia and Luna and also thinking on how they will react to the situation at hoof. It was about 5 minutes after Rainbow left when she was starting to panic. ‘What will Princess Celestia do when I show her that I am now an alicorn? What will my friends think of me when they find out?’ she thought to herself just when Spike got back with the supplies. “Ah, Spike, are you ready to write the letter to the princess?” she asked her number one assistant. “Yeah, let me know what to write.” said Spike in tone that was very common for him. ‘Dear Princess Celestia This letter is not one of my friendship reports you requested me to send you, for this is an emergency that requires both you and your sister, Princess Luna. If it’s not too much trouble for you, I would like for you and your sister to come to the library at 5 today. I will explain the situation then between you and the other Elements of Harmony. Your Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle’ “Did you get all of that Spike?” she asked in a concerned tone. “Yes I did. Would you like me to send now so you can get ready for the meeting?” he said, rolling up the scroll and putting a seal on it. “Would you please.” she said. “Thank you Spike, I don’t know what I would do without you around.” Spike breathed out a green flame that ignited the scroll and sent it on its way to the princess. “You would probably be losing everything and be late to every appointment you make.” he said in a nonchalant voice. ****Mean while, across Ponyville**** Rainbow Dash was on her way to Rarity’s store to inform her of what is happening later that day. As she was flying through the skies of Ponyville, she thought she heard her name being called. She stopped and looked around, and saw her bright pink hyper friend waving at her. “Hi Rainbow, whacha doin’?” Pinkie asked with an ear-to-ear smile plastered on her face. Rainbow couldn’t help but giggle at her friend’s always chipper attitude. When her giggle fit finally died down she responded, “I was on my way to Rarity’s to let her know to meet at Twilight’s at 5 today, but since you now know, want to help me tell the other’s?” “Sure, I’ll be glad to help. I’ll go tell Rarity and go tell Applejack and Fluttershy, okay?” Pinkie asked. “Sounds like a plan to me. See ya later Pinks.” Rainbow said as she sped off to Sweet Apple Acres. ****Back at the library**** Twilight was pacing around the library proper nervously thinking of what might happen when she lets the princess’s and her friends know. ‘What are they all going to think? How will they react to me now that I’m an alicorn?’ She was thinking questions like this since the letter was sent thanks to Spike. It was now 3:30, which meant an hour and a half till everyone arrived. Thankfully she had Spike around to help her get everything ready. While they were organizing the bookshelves by the staircase, Spike made a sound like he was about to throw up. Instead of Spike tossing his lunch, he belched out a green flame that materialized into a scroll which he promptly grabbed and un rolled it. “Who is it from Spike?” Twilight with curiously. “It’s from the princess.” Spiked said, then read it aloud. ‘Dear My Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle, I have let Luna know of your summoning and we will both be there on time with a few royal guards as a precautionary to the emergency. Also, when I received your letter, I was talking with your family and they will be accompanying Luna and myself so they may also witness whatever you have to say. Sincerely, Princess Celestia’ Now Twilight really was starting to freak out after hearing what her mentor had just told her. “My family is coming with the princess’s. This is not good, this is not good at all. What am I going to do now? SPIKE...SPIKE,” she said before being cut off. “What is it Twilight? What do you need?” he asked holding his left ear from Twilight yelling into it, with some slight concern in his voice. “I need you to continue cleaning this room while I go to my room to get something to cover these wings so everypony doesn’t know I’m an alicorn before I tell them. Excluding you and Rainbow Dash.” She said trying to calm herself down. Spike gave a mock salute and got back to work while Twilight went to her bedroom upstairs. **** Carousel Boutique 3:35**** Rarity was busy working on a new clothing line for Fancy Pants in Canterlot. She was just about to sew the bridal to the rest of the design when she lost her concentration by a knocking on the front door of the shop. Being the good business pony she is, she went to go see who was at the door. “Welcome to Carousel Boutique where everything is unique, chic, and… oh hello Pinkie darling. What can I do for you this fine afternoon?” she asked in her always formal voice. “I ran into Rainbow while doing my normal thing. She was going to gather you, me, and the rest of friends to meet at Twilight’s at 5 today. Saying something about an emergency.” Pinkie said in a rapid voice to were no-pony could understand it. Rarity tried to comprehend her friend’s speedy explanation. After she fully comprehended what her friend had just said, she smiled and responded happily. “Of course I will be there to help our dear friend in her time of need.” “Great, Rainbow is going to tell Applejack and Fluttershy right now.” Pinkie said as she was leaving. “See you at Twilight’s in an hour and twenty minutes.” ****Sweet Apple Acres 3:40**** It was now 3:40 when Rainbow made it to Sweet Apple Acres to inform her athletic friend, Applejack, of the situation. When she arrived, she decided to check the house to see if anypony was inside the house. She knocked on the door three times, and waited a couple of seconds, but got no response. She knocked a little harder and said, “Hello, anypony in here. Applejack, it’s me, Rainbow. Hello.” When she got no response, she decided to check the fields for the farmer. She took to the air and started scanning the vast orchard. She started hearing faint thumps come the west of where she was at that moment and took off in that direction. When the noises got louder, she started looking around for any sign of the farmer. While searching, she a brown Stetson hat out of the corner of her eye and flew down to talk to her friend. “Yo, Applejack,” she screamed from just above the tree line. “I need to tell you something very important.” Applejack looked around until a blue blur landed right beside her. “Whacha need RD?” “Twilight wanted me to let you know to be at her house at 5 today. She will explain everything at that time.” Rainbow said with a commanding tone. Applejack thought about her friends words then smiled and said, “O’ course ah’ll be ther to support our friend. I’m not lyin’ when I say ah ain’t a tiny bit curious as to what this is ‘bout.” Rainbow smiled and flapped her wings to get air born, “Great. Now all I need to tell is Fluttershy. See ya at Twilight’s at 5.” ****Fluttershy’s cottage 10 minutes later**** Fluttershy’s cottage was a good twenty minutes away from Sweet Apple Acres, but being the fastest flyer in Equestria, Rainbow Dash made it there in ten minutes. When she arrived, she saw the canary colored Pegasus feeding her chickens, so she went over there. "Hey there Flutter’s. What s’up?” Rainbow asked in a nice, gentle way as to not frighten her friend, but it was all for naught. Fluttershy squeaked and hid behind her mane. She glanced a peek and brightened as she saw her life-long friend standing there with a little bit of shame in her eyes for scaring Fluttershy. “Hello there Rainbow. What can I do for you?” Rainbow’s smile came back as she noticed her friends change in demeanor then responded. “Twilight wanted me to inform you and the rest of the group to meet at the library at 5 today. She also sent a letter to the princess’s asking them to come as well.” “Of course I’ll be there to support Twilight. Do you know what this is about…if you don’t me asking that is?” Fluttershy said with a slight curiosity in her eyes. “I do, but Twilight insisted she be the one to tell all of you cause it is pretty big news if I do say so myself.” Rainbow said looking at the ground in shame remembering what she had done to her best friend.

Chapter 3It was now almost 5 o'clock, and everypony was due to arrive any minute. Twilight was in her room mentally preparing for the upcoming revealing of her predicament. She had told Spike to wait in the library proper and let in everypony that was supposed to be there at that time. She was using an illusion spell to make her wings disappear until she was ready to unveil her news to her friends and family. There was a knock on the front door, alerting Spike that somepony has arrived. He opened the door to reveal the rest of the main six; Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash. "Hey guys, come on in. Twilight's upstairs getting ready, and instructed me to tell you to wait here." he said, before remembering something. "Rainbow, she told me to tell you to go to her room when you arrived." "Alright," came Rainbow's reply as she went to her friends room. She knocked on the door and said, "Twilight, it's me, Rainbow, can I come in?" "Sure thing Rainbow," came Twilight's reply as she opened the door with her magic. "How you holding up Twi'?" Rainbow asked in a gentle tone. "Just thinking about what I'm going to say, and how they're going to react when they see me as I am." Twilight said. ****Meanwhile in the library proper**** Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie were confused when they heard that only Rainbow could go see Twilight. There was an uncomfortable silence until Rarity spoke up first. "Spike, why is only Rainbow allowed to go see Twilight and we're not?" Spike sighed knowing this question was coming, "Because Rainbow already knows what's wrong with Twilight." Rarity wasn't all that pleased with Spike's answer. "How does she know what's wrong with Twilight? We are her closest friends, we deserve the right to know what's wrong with our friend." Rarity said in an unpleasant tone that made Spike flinch. "the reason you don't know is because this could change the face of Equestria forever. And to answer your question, Rainbow already knows because she caused it to happen." he said as a flash of bright light and the front door opening caught his attention. "Spike, what do mean by, Rainbow Dash caused this incident to happen?" Celestia asked with a serious tone in her voice, while staring daggers at him. He looked around the room looking for a way out of the situation he had just dug himself in. He was about to explain what Twilight had wanted him to say when Rainbow and her came down the stairs. Twilight froze when she saw everypony staring at her with a look saying, 'What is the meaning of this emergency?' She sighed knowing she had to get it over with as soon as possible. "I will explain everything in just a moment, but first I would like for you to take a seat as you are going to need it." After everypony had found a place to sit she decided to start from the beginning. "As you know princess, Shining Armor asked to look up a spell to help with gathering information from our neighboring countries without being noticed." "I do remember this. Please, carry on," Princess Celestia said in a kind tone. Looking around the room getting a nod from everypony, she reluctantly proceeded. "Anyway, as I was just about to practice the spell, Rainbow came flying through my window and crashed into me right when I was casting the spell." Everypony looked at Rainbow who looked to the floor with disappointment in her eyes. "Sorry Twi'. I really didn't mean to crash into you." "It's okay Rainbow. As I was saying she crashed into when I was casting the spell causing it to backfire," Twilight said as she dropped the illusion spell hiding her wings. "Turning me into the alicorn you see before you." Everypony in the room except for Spike and Rainbow Dash went slack jawed when the spell was dropped. Princess Luna was the first to recover from the shock of the situation that just unfolded before her eyes. "Sister, what do we do now with Twilight being an alicorn?" Princess Celestia shook her head to recover from what she had just heard and witnessed. "The first thing we need to do is not panic. The second thing is I need you to help her with her new-found abilities, alright Luna." she said in a clear calm voice. "Understood sister, but where do we go while I help her with her new training?" princess Luna asked. Celestia thought about that for a moment before stating her decision. "You will stay here in Ponyville with Twilight teaching her everything she needs to know. When I feel her training is done, both of you will return to the castle where Twilight will take control of the stars and you the moon. Am I understood?" "I understand sister, but what about my royal duties back at the castle?" Princess Luna asked. "You will still raise the moon from here, and as for your duties, I will take care of them." Princess Celestia said as she got up ready to leave. "Oh, I almost forgot. When Luna and Twilight return to the castle, the rest of the Elements of Harmony may choose to come be her royal adviser's for when she becomes a princess."
Chapter 1It was a beautiful Spring day in Canterlot, and all the nobles, the Elements of Harmony and Twilight’s parents were all gathered in the Canterlot Royal Gardens. Princesses Celestia and Luna stood on a large wooden stage in front of the seats where all the guests had gathered. The stage was decorated with bright blue and purple flowers. A podium stood at the front, and a large red curtain hung at the back, hiding whatever was behind it. On the other side of the curtain, a few anxious handmaidens were busily preparing the pony-of-honor for her big day. “We are almost done with your make-up Twilight. Just a little bit more eye liner and you will be ready for your coronation” Rarity said just as they finished with Twilight’s make-up. “Thank you for helping me get ready for this day ladies, it really means a lot.” Twilight said after they finished. Twilight moved to her position behind the curtain as Celestia prepared to start Twilight's coronation as the newest princess of Equestria and co-ruler of the night. ****4 YEARS EARLIER**** Twilight was practicing a new spell that allows her to change into any creature she can think of. This spell would be able to go into other border lining countries to get valuable information about threats or future peace and trade documents without being detected as a pony. The downside to the spell is that it uses a lot of magic to cast. If the spell is done incorrectly or something misfires, the results cannot be undone. If it is done correctly, the caster can hold the spell without any use of magic after it is cast. The reason Twilight was practicing the spell was to help the Equestrian Army to get the information they needed from the countries that pose a great threat to Equestria. “I hope Shining Armor knew what he was doing when he asked me to find a spell that will help the safety of Equestria.” Twilight said to herself, doing her best to concentrate. “This spell may have been easy to find, but looking at what it says in the book, this is a spell made to be used by unicorns of a greater level than I am.” She was right, the spell was originally created by Starswirl the Bearded shortly before he died. Even Princess Celestia gets weak after using the spell. ‘So many things could go wrong if I mess up this spell...’ she thought to herself as she started charging up her horn to start the spell. ‘...I could turn into a gryphon or a minotaur and not be able to turn back.’ Just as she was casting the spell, Rainbow Dash burst into the library through an open window. As she burst through the window, Twilight was casting the spell and got thrown across the room into a wall. She hit the wall with such force, she was out cold for five minutes. As she was waking up, she saw a rainbow mane and two magenta eyes staring at her with worry showing in them. “Twilight... Twilight, are you okay. I didn't mean to make you mess...” she said before she trailed off staring at Twilight as she was getting up. “...up your magic. Um, Twilight, when did you get to be the same height as Princess Luna? And how long have you had wings?” Twilight stared at Rainbow incredulously, “What are you talking about?” she asked. “I have always been about the same height as you, and I am a unicorn and have never had wings.” she said matter-of-factly. Rainbow just gave her a look that said ‘Really, you’re that naive to notice you’re staring at the top of my head.’ “Just look behind you and tell there are no wings.

But if I now have wings, and am taller doesn't that mean my horn is longer too.” Twilight said with slight panic in her voice. Rainbow thought about that for a moment, which is something she doesn't normally do, she looked at a picture of their group of friends then back at Twilight. “It actually is slightly longer than it was before.” Twilight started to panic as she was trying to think of any other explanation rather than the obvious.

I need you to send a letter to the princess, it’s an emergency.” She screamed to all of the library. “I’m in the kitchen, what is i…whoa. What happened to you?” Spike asked as he came out of the kitchen. “I’ll explain when all of my friends and the princess’s are here. Now please take a letter and then send to the princess.” Twilight said in the most soothing voice she could muster at the time. Author's Note: I will change this chapter out with the edited version as soon as my proof-reader/editor sends me the revised copy of it. His story will be up soon, so be sure to check out Superbal-117's story when it is up and running.
Chapter 2While Spike was getting the ink, quill and parchment, Twilight was thinking about what to write to Princess Celestia and Luna and also thinking on how they will react to the situation at hoof. It was about 5 minutes after Rainbow left when she was starting to panic. ‘What will Princess Celestia do when I show her that I am now an alicorn?

If it’s not too much trouble for you, I would like for you and your sister to come to the library at 5 today. I will explain the situation then between you and the other Elements of Harmony. Your Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle’ “Did you get all of that Spike?” she asked in a concerned tone. “Yes I did. Would you like me to send now so you can get ready for the meeting?” he said, rolling up the scroll and putting a seal on it. “Would you please.” she said. “Thank you Spike, I don’t know what I would do without you around.” Spike breathed out a green flame that ignited the scroll and sent it on its way to the princess. “You would probably be losing everything and be late to every appointment you make.” he said in a nonchalant voice. ****Mean while, across Ponyville**** Rainbow Dash was on her way to Rarity’s store to inform her of what is happening later that day. As she was flying through the skies of Ponyville, she thought she heard her name being called. She stopped and looked around, and saw her bright pink hyper friend waving at her. “Hi Rainbow, whacha doin’?” Pinkie asked with an ear-to-ear smile plastered on her face. Rainbow couldn’t help but giggle at her friend’s always chipper attitude. When her giggle fit finally died down she responded, “I was on my way to Rarity’s to let her know to meet at Twilight’s at 5 today, but since you now know, want to help me tell the other’s?” “Sure, I’ll be glad to help. I’ll go tell Rarity and go tell Applejack and Fluttershy, okay?” Pinkie asked. “Sounds like a plan to me. See ya later Pinks.” Rainbow said as she sped off to Sweet Apple Acres. ****Back at the library**** Twilight was pacing around the library proper nervously thinking of what might happen when she lets the princess’s and her friends know. ‘What are they all going to think? How will they react to me now that I’m an alicorn?’ She was thinking questions like this since the letter was sent thanks to Spike.

Sincerely, Princess Celestia’ Now Twilight really was starting to freak out after hearing what her mentor had just told her. “My family is coming with the princess’s. This is not good, this is not good at all. What am I going to do now? SPIKE...SPIKE,” she said before being cut off. “What is it Twilight? What do you need?” he asked holding his left ear from Twilight yelling into it, with some slight concern in his voice. “I need you to continue cleaning this room while I go to my room to get something to cover these wings so everypony doesn’t know I’m an alicorn before I tell them. Excluding you and Rainbow Dash.” She said trying to calm herself down. Spike gave a mock salute and got back to work while Twilight went to her bedroom upstairs. **** Carousel Boutique 3:35**** Rarity was busy working on a new clothing line for Fancy Pants in Canterlot. She was just about to sew the bridal to the rest of the design when she lost her concentration by a knocking on the front door of the shop. Being the good business pony she is, she went to go see who was at the door. “Welcome to Carousel Boutique where everything is unique, chic, and… oh hello Pinkie darling. What can I do for you this fine afternoon?” she asked in her always formal voice. “I ran into Rainbow while doing my normal thing.

After she fully comprehended what her friend had just said, she smiled and responded happily. “Of course I will be there to help our dear friend in her time of need.” “Great, Rainbow is going to tell Applejack and Fluttershy right now.” Pinkie said as she was leaving. “See you at Twilight’s in an hour and twenty minutes.” ****Sweet Apple Acres 3:40**** It was now 3:40 when Rainbow made it to Sweet Apple Acres to inform her athletic friend, Applejack, of the situation. When she arrived, she decided to check the house to see if anypony was inside the house. She knocked on the door three times, and waited a couple of seconds, but got no response. She knocked a little harder and said, “Hello, anypony in here. Applejack, it’s me, Rainbow. Hello.” When she got no response, she decided to check the fields for the farmer.

I’m not lyin’ when I say ah ain’t a tiny bit curious as to what this is ‘bout.” Rainbow smiled and flapped her wings to get air born, “Great. Now all I need to tell is Fluttershy. See ya at Twilight’s at 5.” ****Fluttershy’s cottage 10 minutes later**** Fluttershy’s cottage was a good twenty minutes away from Sweet Apple Acres, but being the fastest flyer in Equestria, Rainbow Dash made it there in ten minutes. When she arrived, she saw the canary colored Pegasus feeding her chickens, so she went over there. "Hey there Flutter’s. What s’up?” Rainbow asked in a nice, gentle way as to not frighten her friend, but it was all for naught. Fluttershy squeaked and hid behind her mane. She glanced a peek and brightened as she saw her life-long friend standing there with a little bit of shame in her eyes for scaring Fluttershy. “Hello there Rainbow. What can I do for you?” Rainbow’s smile came back as she noticed her friends change in demeanor then responded. “Twilight wanted me to inform you and the rest of the group to meet at the library at 5 today. She also sent a letter to the princess’s asking them to come as well.” “Of course I’ll be there to support Twilight. Do you know what this is about…if you don’t me asking that is?” Fluttershy said with a slight curiosity in her eyes. “I do, but Twilight insisted she be the one to tell all of you cause it is pretty big news if I do say so myself.” Rainbow said looking at the ground in shame remembering what she had done to her best friend. Author's Note: Sorry it took so long to get this chapter up. I had to deal with school work and family issues. On a brighter note, I fired my proof-reader because he was slow and incompetent. Sorry for recommending his story, I had no idea it would be that bad, so he cancelled it. I am hoping to have at least two more chapters up this weekend. If I don't I am terribly sorry and please give me criticism, with that, I can only get better. Now ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!

Chapter 3It was now almost 5 o'clock, and everypony was due to arrive any minute. Twilight was in her room mentally preparing for the upcoming revealing of her predicament. She had told Spike to wait in the library proper and let in everypony that was supposed to be there at that time. She was using an illusion spell to make her wings disappear until she was ready to unveil her news to her friends and family. There was a knock on the front door, alerting Spike that somepony has arrived. He opened the door to reveal the rest of the main six; Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash. "Hey guys, come on in. Twilight's upstairs getting ready, and instructed me to tell you to wait here." he said, before remembering something. "Rainbow, she told me to tell you to go to her room when you arrived." "Alright," came Rainbow's reply as she went to her friends room. She knocked on the door and said, "Twilight, it's me, Rainbow, can I come in?" "Sure thing Rainbow," came Twilight's reply as she opened the door with her magic. "How you holding up Twi'?" Rainbow asked in a gentle tone. "Just thinking about what I'm going to say, and how they're going to react when they see me as I am." Twilight said. ****Meanwhile in the library proper**** Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie were confused when they heard that only Rainbow could go see Twilight. There was an uncomfortable silence until Rarity spoke up first. "Spike, why is only Rainbow allowed to go see Twilight and we're not?" Spike sighed knowing this question was coming, "Because Rainbow already knows what's wrong with Twilight." Rarity wasn't all that pleased with Spike's answer. "How does she know what's wrong with Twilight? We are her closest friends, we deserve the right to know what's wrong with our friend." Rarity said in an unpleasant tone that made Spike flinch. "the reason you don't know is because this could change the face of Equestria forever. And to answer your question, Rainbow already knows because she caused it to happen." he said as a flash of bright light and the front door opening caught his attention. "Spike, what do mean by, Rainbow Dash caused this incident to happen?" Celestia asked with a serious tone in her voice, while staring daggers at him. He looked around the room looking for a way out of the situation he had just dug himself in. He was about to explain what Twilight had wanted him to say when Rainbow and her came down the stairs. Twilight froze when she saw everypony staring at her with a look saying, 'What is the meaning of this emergency?' She sighed knowing she had to get it over with as soon as possible. "I will explain everything in just a moment, but first I would like for you to take a seat as you are going to need it." After everypony had found a place to sit she decided to start from the beginning. "As you know princess, Shining Armor asked to look up a spell to help with gathering information from our neighboring countries without being noticed." "I do remember this. Please, carry on," Princess Celestia said in a kind tone. Looking around the room getting a nod from everypony, she reluctantly proceeded. "Anyway, as I was just about to practice the spell, Rainbow came flying through my window and crashed into me right when I was casting the spell." Everypony looked at Rainbow who looked to the floor with disappointment in her eyes. "Sorry Twi'. I really didn't mean to crash into you." "It's okay Rainbow. As I was saying she crashed into when I was casting the spell causing it to backfire," Twilight said as she dropped the illusion spell hiding her wings. "Turning me into the alicorn you see before you." Everypony in the room except for Spike and Rainbow Dash went slack jawed when the spell was dropped. Princess Luna was the first to recover from the shock of the situation that just unfolded before her eyes. "Sister, what do we do now with Twilight being an alicorn?" Princess Celestia shook her head to recover from what she had just heard and witnessed. "The first thing we need to do is not panic. The second thing is I need you to help her with her new-found abilities, alright Luna." she said in a clear calm voice. "Understood sister, but where do we go while I help her with her new training?" princess Luna asked. Celestia thought about that for a moment before stating her decision. "You will stay here in Ponyville with Twilight teaching her everything she needs to know. When I feel her training is done, both of you will return to the castle where Twilight will take control of the stars and you the moon. Am I understood?" "I understand sister, but what about my royal duties back at the castle?" Princess Luna asked. "You will still raise the moon from here, and as for your duties, I will take care of them." Princess Celestia said as she got up ready to leave. "Oh, I almost forgot. When Luna and Twilight return to the castle, the rest of the Elements of Harmony may choose to come be her royal adviser's for when she becomes a princess."
