"Surpriiise!" the pink pony from earlier exclaimed again. "Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie and I made this party just for you! Were you surprised? Were you, were you, huh huh huh?" she jumped over Twilight, landing behind her, in less than a second.

"Yes. Yes we were," James replied.

"No. No we weren't," Conscience responded.

"Very surprised. Libraries are supposed to be quiet," Twilight emphasized the last word.

Pinkie looked at Twilight like she said something crazy and mildly humorous. "Hah-well that's silly. What kind of welcome party would this be if it were quiet? I mean duh. Boooring!"

"I would actually like that," Conscience spoke up.

"Yes. Yes I would," James agreed.

Twilight walked through the crowd of ponies, Spike, James, Conscience, and Pinkie following her. Pinkie continued seemingly in very little (if at all) breath, "Y'see, I saw you when you first got here, remember? You were all "hello" and I was all *gasp*, remember? Y'see I've never saw you before and if I've never saw you before that means you're new, 'cause I know everypony, and I mean everypony in Ponyville!" Conscience did the cuckoo-in-the-head gesture to James while pointing at Pinkie Pie. In response, James smacked him in the back of the head.

Twilight groaned, though Pinkie didn't hear her. Not like she'd notice, she seemed too busy talking. "And if you're new, that meant you haven't met anyone yet, and if you haven't met anyone yet, you must not have any friends, and if you don't have any friends then you must be lonely, and that made me so sad," she pouted as she said that, while she popped up here and there around Twilight, who took a bottle and poured its contents into a drinking glass.

James had gotten slightly pissed at Pinkie's words. Just because Twilight was new to a town didn't mean she didn't have any friends. And just because she didn't have any friends (if she didn't have any) didn't mean she was lonely. Did she think Spike was following Twilight around for his health? No. And it's not like she's not friends with her friends in her previous home anymore, just because she moved. Maybe she was too damn excited to realize what she was implying? James hoped that was the case. Actually, he demanded that be the case.

"Then I had an idea, and that's why I went *gasp*! I must throw a great big ginormous super-duper spectacular welcome party and invite everyone in Ponyville! See? And now you have lots and lots of friends!" Pinkie said as Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Fluttershy approached them. At that, Twilight made a face as she paused her drinking in mid-sip. She turned around to reveal her face burning red.

"Are you alright, sugarcube?" Applejack asked in concern. Twilight's ears then blew out a lot of steam, before she made a beeline upstairs.

Pinkie's expression melted. "Aww, she's so happy she's crying." James facepalmed loudly.

"No. You done pissed her off," Conscience shook his head.

"And drove her away," James added, his head still in his hand.

Spike picked up the bottle and turned it over. "Hot sauce...," he read out loud before Pinkie tilted it, pouring it onto a cupcake. "Ooh..."

Conscience's jaw dropped and James's face crunched up when Pinkie tossed the cupcake in the air, and caught it in her mouth. "What? It's good," she said as she saw the looks her friends were giving.

POP POP!

James and Conscience Pop Fainted.

Twilight had her head under the pillow that was in the bed she was in. Her head rose as she looked at the clock on the wall. It was few minutes past four in the morning. Twilight groaned. She was doing a lot of that lately.

Just then, James walked up the stairs. "I'm sure I already know the answer, but Pinkie Pie is starting up a game of Pin the Tail on the Pony... the f***," James muttered the last part. "They were wondering if you wanted to join them."

"NO! All the ponies in this town are c-razy! Do you know what time it is?"

James smirked. "It's, HAMMER TIME!" He pulled out his hammer (which of course was black) and swung it in random directions. Twilight was staring, dumbfounded. After a few seconds, he cleared his throat and put his hammer back up. "Anyway, Spike told me it's the evening of the Summer Sun Celebration. Everyone is supposed to stay up, or they'll miss the Princess raise the sun!"

His expression became devoid of any mirth as he spoke. "I do feel for you, as far as this day has gone. But while I empathize about how the citizens here are something else, I don't think you're giving them a chance. This is a special occasion, after all," he said as he walked downstairs. Twilight rolled her eyes as she repeated his words in a mocking tone.

KLPOW!

Twilight jumped in surprise when she suddenly saw James back in the room. He pointed at her Sharply. "Don't get disrespectful, Twilight," he said darkly as he narrowed his eyes, before Flashing back downstairs.

Twilight sighed and rolled on her back, the pillow on top of her. "Ugh, here I thought I'd have time to learn about the Elements of Harmony but, silly me. All this ridiculous friend-making has kept me from it!" As she rolled to her side facing the window, her eyes fell on the moon.

"Legend has it that on the longest day of the thousandth year, the stars will aid in her escape, and she will bring about everlasting night," she restated what she read earlier in her book, which she then levitated to her face (wherever the f*ck she got it from). "I hope the Princess was right... I hope it really is just an old pony tale..."

Just then, Spike entered the room. "Come on, Twilight, it's time to watch the sun rise!"

The tall, pointy building where Twilight became acquainted with Rarity, turned out to be the Town Hall. James, Twilight, Spike, and Conscience currently stood in the main room along with a giant crowd of other ponies. They continued to enter the building occasionally. Some of the pegasi hovered in the air.

As they stood waiting, Pinkie zoomed up to them. "Isn't this exciting? Are you excited 'cause I'm excited I've never been so excited-- well except for the time that I saw you walking into town and I went *gasp*. But I mean really, who can top that?" James facepalmed in response.

Just then, the birds sang a majestic introduction while Fluttershy conducted with her hoof.

"That sounded nothing like what they were singing during practice," Conscience said to James.

"Maybe they were working on their voice or pitch, or something?" James guessed.

The spotlight shone on a mare on the stage, who had a faded brown coat, and a grey-ish white mane and tail. "Fillies, and gentlecolts...," she began.

"What in the f***!" James mouthed.

"As mayor of Ponyville, it is my great pleasure to announce the beginning of the Summer Sun Celebration!" she continued, in which everyone appauded. (Except Twilight, Spike, and James. Twilight, because she wasn't completely focusing on the ceremony. Spike, because he was on Twilight's back and was holding on to her neck for balance. And James because he almost never applauded.)

The mayor waited for everyone to settle down before she spoke again. "In just a few moments, our town will witness the magic of the sunrise, and celebrate this, the longest day of the year."

With his peripheral vision, James noticed Twilight from the corner of his eye, looking elsewhere. He looked up to see what she was looking at. His gaze fell on the moon. His eyebrow rose when he noticed how faster than usual the stars seemed to be moving. His other eyebrow rose when he realized the stars were moving towards the moon. But his eyes shot wide open when he saw the crater shape he saw when falling, disappear. His mind was already on the case.

Wait. Twilight said that Nightmare Moon was banished in the moon. And that in this time period, the stars will help her escape... well that's f*cking cheating! But now that I think about it, the shape looked like a unicorn. And then you put everything together. The stars moved to the moon, they met up, and the unicorn face disappeared. Which would mean... oooh sh*t. She's coming.

His thoughts were interrupted when he heard Conscience snoring lightly. He glared at him, and was going to smack him awake, but thought against it. He'll let him sleep... for now.

The mayor continued, "And now, it is my great honor to introduce to you the ruler of our land. The very pony who gives us the sun and moon each and every day. The good, the wise, the bringer of harmony to all of Equestria..." James rolled his eyes. "Princess Celestia!"
The birds' voices complimented the music that followed after. Rarity used her teeth (instead of her damn magic, James noted) to pull the curtain, revealing... nothing.

"Huh?" Rarity realized there was no one behind the curtain.

"This can't be good," Twilight said to herself.

"Damn it, that was quick!" James hissed under his breath.

The ponies began to mumble in confusion and a little bit of terror. "Remain calm everypony. There must be a reasonable explanation," the mayor tried to reassure everyone.

"Oh, there's an explanation alright...," James said with an indifferent expression.

"Ooh! Ooh! I love guessing games Is she hiding?" Pinkie spoke up.

Rarity turned to the audience, "She's gone!"

"It apparently took you over ten seconds to figure that out," James deadpanned.

"Ooh, she's goood," said Pinkie. James had to resist the urge to facepalm really loud at that point. Pinkie then yelped when she noticed a strange blue figure moving in where Princess Celestia should've been. Other ponies gasped as, gradually, they all noticed too.

"Oh, no," Twilight said before the mist formed into a tall, black-coated mare. Her mane looked like her entire self did a few seconds ago. "Nightmare Moon." Spike fainted, falling off Twilight's back. James quickly caught him, and gently placed him on the floor before returning his attention to the mare up front. He noticed she had both wings and a horn.

"Oh, my beloved subjects. It's been so long since I've seen your precious, little sun-loving faces," she spoke.

"F*** youuu!" James called out as he narrowed his eyes.

"What did you do with our princess!?" Rainbow Dash demanded, before she tried to fly towards her. But an orange mare grabbed her tail in her teeth.

"Whoa there, Nelly," Applejack said, Rainbow's tail muffling her voice.

The mare chuckled darkly. "What? Am I not royal enough for you?" she furrowed her eyebrows. "Don't you know who I am?"

"Ooh, ooh! More guessing games!" Pinkie spoke up.

"No! No they don't," James cut her off.

"Does my crown no longer count now that I have been imprisoned for a thousand years?" the mare sized up Fluttershy, who flinched visibly.

She got in Rarity's face. "Did you not recall the legend? Did you not see the signs?"

"I did. And I know who you are," Twilight spoke up.

"Ahem!" James cleared his throat loudly.

Twilight rolled her eyes. "We know who you are. Your the Mare in the Moon: Nightmare Moon." All the ponies gasped, which annoyed James, because he was sure no one else seemed to know who Nightmare Moon was.

"Well well well. Somepony remembers me," Nightmare Moon smiled wryly.

"Excuse me, but no one here has lived long enough to 'remember' you," James intoned.

Nightmare Moon ignored him. "Then you also know why I'm here."

"You're here to... to...," Twilight gulped.

The dark mare chuckled. "Remember this day, little ponies, for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night will last. FOREVER!" Twilight grimaced as Nightmare Moon laughed evilly as her mane began to swirl above her, and lightning flashed around her. It was at this time that Conscience happened to awaken, as his head suddenly shot up.

"HAPPY NEW YEAR!" he Exploded. Fortunately, everyone was too focused on Nightmare Moon to notice... which was surprising, you couldn't miss the explosion he made. The only one who did notice was James, who deadpanned at him.
