The Original Elements

Annie Smith, now known as Granny Smith, leaned against Town Hall's wall. She tapped her hoof, waiting.

Graham Cracker, also known as Granny Pie, stepped out from behind a corner, nervously looking at Annie. She trotted up, "Long time no see."

Annie smiled slightly. Her white blonde mane was streaked with gray strands, tied up in a bun. Granny Pie had a full gray mane, grinning warmly.

Celestia flew down, gently landing on the ground. She trotted up, hugging the two. Princess Platinum appeared, joining in.

Hoofsteps echoed behind them. They turned around, a beautiful blue mare standing at the bottom of the stairs. She slowly trotted up, every step making a soft clamp. Luna's mane was the same natural hair from before her banishment. It was short, hiding one of her eyes. She looked nervously at the group, her eyes stinging with tears. It had only been days since her return. The elements had somehow made the mares grow older slower than usual.

They pulled Luna in a hug immediately, tears flowing down their faces. Never again would they have to be separated like that. Ever again.
