A New beginning

A New Beginning

Princess Solarwind was sitting alone in her room reminiscing about the times when herself and her younger sister Princess Aurora were ruling side by side together, however those days have since been passed and now she rules alone,having been forced to banish her sister to the moon when she had turned evil and tried to bring forth eternal night.

"My dear sister, I do miss you so..." Solarwind mutters to herself as she gets ready to raise the Sun on a new day.

As her Sun rises,Princess Solarwind trots over to the balcony and looks over her kingdom.

She then sighs and heads to the throne room.

"Today is the day isn't it?" Princess Solarwind says to herself as she walks down the hallway leading to the throne room.

She stops for a bit,then says,"It's been one thousand years..."

She then continues her trip to the throne room.

"Good morning your highness." A guard says as she passes by.

"Good morning." Princess Solarwind says without even looking in the guard's direction.

This repeats about three more times before Princess Solarwind eventually reaches the throne room.

"*Sighs* I wonder how my student is doing?" Princess Solarwind says.

Shining Twilight was busily cleaning up her home in Canterlot with some help from her assistant Spine.

"Okay everything seems to be in order, what do you think Spine?" she says as she puts away a book.

"I think you should really gets some friends, staying inside by your lonesome isn't healthy." Spine said.

"Spine, you and I both know that I don't have time for that! Besides I have you don't I?" Shining Twilight said.

Spine pondered that for a bit and then said " That's true and all, but it'll be better if you had more pony friends."

"Oh be quiet and..." Shining Twilight had stopped herself when she noticed that a particular book was still out of place.

("Odd, I don't remember putting that book there...")She had thought to herself as she picked it up with her magic.

"Spine?" Shining Twilight says in an attempt to get her assistant's attention.

Sure enough,it did, as Spine says " What's up Shining, did you find something?"

"Yeah, I did. So,do you know where this book came from?, Because I don't remember seeing this one." Shining says as she inspected the odd book that she had found.

"Hmm, look at the title, The Mare in the Moon , do you think it means something?" Spine said.

"I'm not sure, let me see if..." Shining Twilight says before opening the book with her magic,not realising that reading it was going to change her life.

She reads it for a little while, then says "Oh no..."

"Shining? What's wrong?" Spine says worry evident in her tone.

"Spine,I need you to send a letter to the princess immediately! I need to let her know that the mare in the moon is about to return tomorrow! Can you do that?" Shining Twilight said.

"Already on it Shine." Spine says as she sends the letter with her fire.

"And now we wait." Shining Twilight says.

Fortunately she didn't have to wait very long because Spine had belched up a scroll that har the Royal seal of the Sun Princess on it.

"Oh wow,that was fast what does it say?" Shining Twilight said.

"Dear Shining Twilight, You should really go out and make some friends. Do not worry yourself with what was written in that book as it is nothing more than an old mares tale. With that out of the way,I'm also putting you in charge of the Summer Sun Celebration in Ponyville. Please make sure everything is in order for my arrival -Princess Solarwind."

Spine read the message and was happy that the Princess had responded as quickly as she did.

"So, what did it say?" Shining Twilight said.

"It says that you shouldn't worry about what was written in that book we found,and for you to go to Ponyville and make some friends,as well as making sure that everything is in order for the Summer Sun Celebration tomorrow." Spine said.

"What!? Are you kidding me!?" Shining Twilight says in disbelief.

"No Shine,That's exactly what it says."Spine says.

"Argh, fine let's go Spine!" Shining says as she storms out of her dorm and heads over to a nearby chariot that was set up for their trip.

"Right this way madam." A guard says as he directs the two friends into the back of the chariot.

Once they were settled in, the chariot took off. It's destination... Ponyville.

"Are we there yet?" Spine says as she impatiently waits for the chariot to reach it's intended destination.

"I'm not sure, but I believe that we should be there soon." Shining Twilight said.

It was a long flight but the chariot eventually landed in Ponyville.

"Ugh, finally land sweet land," Spine says before she kisses the ground.

"Spine stop that, ponies could be watching!" Shining Twilight said.

"Sorry Shine." Spine said.

"Ok now that we're here I think the first thing we should check is the food, what do you think Spine?" Shining Twilight says as she looked at the list that was given to her before she had left.

"I'd say we go make friends first." Spine said.

"What did I just tell you Spine! We have no time for that!" Shining Twilight said.

Aww, but what about that guy?" Spine says as she points out a brown earth pony stallion that had a black mane and a question mark for his cutie mark.

"Fine, I'll go talk to him." Shining Twilight says before walking up to the stallion.

"Hello there, my name is Shining Twilight, What's yours?" Shining Twilight said.

"Random Question," he replied.

"What question?" Shining Twilight says thinking that he was going ask her a question.

Surprisingly he laughs for a bit,then says, "That's my name, I wasn't asking you anything. I can't believe I got somepony with that."

"Oh..." Shining Twilight says before walking away.

"Hey wait up, where ya goin' ?" he says but Shining Twilight was already out of ear shot.

"Heh, oh well" he says to himself before leaving.

Shining Twilight eventually stopped herself near an Apple farm and said to herself, "What was with that stallion?"

"I... don't...*pants*...know but...*pant*...can you not...*pant* run like that again?" Spine says clearly out of breath from running.

"Sorry about that Spine." Shining Twilight says.

"It's okay, so who was first on that list again?" Spine said.

" I believe that we're looking for two pegasi twins named Sunny and Moonlit Sky. They help run this farm." Shining Twilight says before walking towards said farm, Spine following shortly afterwards.

Shining Twilight only made it about halfway through the farm before getting tackle hugged by two pegasi.

"Hello!" one says.

"Who are you?" the other added.

"We're Sunny and Moonlit Sky!" they both say simultaneously.

"I'm Shining Twilight, and I'm here to see how the food is coming along for the Summer Sun Celebration." Shining Twilight said.

"Oooo! The food is coming along great!" Sunny says cheerfully.

"Would you like some?" Moonlit Sky says after her sister.

"No thank you, I ate before I left." Shining Twilight says in an unamused tone.

"Aww..." the two pegasi say simultaneously.

"Come on Spine, we're going to find the mare in charge of the weather." Shining Twilight says as she leaves the farm.

"Shine, I'm not going with you until you at least make one friend while we're here!" Spine protested.

"Spine, I told you that I have no time for friends! Now come with me or I'll move you myself!" Shining Twilight said.

"*sighs* I guess I have no choice, sorry you two, but she's always been this way." Spine says apologetically to Sunny and Moonlit Sky.

"That's okay!" Sunny Sky says.

"She'll come around eventually!" Moonlit Sky added.

"Alright then,I guess I'll be going now." Spine says before she leaves the farm as well.

"Bye!" both pegasi say simultaneously as Spine leaves.

Shining Twilight and Spine we're still looking for the mare in charge of the weather,until they accidentally bumped into Random Question.

"Hey there didn' mean bump into ya like that, so where ya goin' ?" Random Question said.

"It's none of your business, so leave us alone!" Shining Twilight says as she passes right by him.

Spine mouths "sorry" before following Shining Twilight.

"Sheesh, harsh much?" Random Question says to himself as they leave.

"Ugh, stallions I swear." Shining Twilight says to herself.

" 'ello down there, howzit goin' " a voice says from above.

Shining Twilight looks up and spots a very odd pegasus mare slowly making her way towards them, she had a light brown coat and a short white mane, her cutie mark is a feather.

"Who are you?" Shining Twilight says to her as she lands.

"I'm Windfeather,but you can call me "Windy"." Windfeather said.

"Windfeather? What an odd name." Shining Twilight says.

"Yeah I know but what can ya do right? I was born with that name, so I got no choice." Windfeather says cheerfully.

"I like you miss "Windy", your not as annoying as that Random Question fellow that I keep running into." Shining Twilight said.

"Oh him, he's the party planner 'round here, so if he's botherin' ya, he's got a good reason to." Windfeather said.

"What!? He's the party planner!?" Shining Twilight said,her temper rising ever so slightly.

"Yep! Got that right, he's a mighty good one too!." Windy says cheerfully.

Shining Twilight's anger was so great that she had blasted a nearby puddle with her magic, accidentally covering herself in mud.

"Gosh darn it!" she says out of frustration.

" 'old on there my friend, I'll get you dry in a jiff." Windfeather says before she took off and then flew circles around Shining Twilight which did get her dry,but not without making her look like if she were a certain pink earth pony from another world.

"Whoops, sorry 'bout that." Windfeather said.

"Ugh, I'm leaving!" Shining Twilight says angrily before stomping off.

"Hey wait for me!" Spine says as she runs up to Shining Twilight.

"Okay now we are going to find the pony in charge of decorations." Shining Twilight said.

"Shouldn't you fix your mane first?" Spine asked her.

"I'll do that later,let's just get this over with." Shining Twilight says before once again bumping into Random Question.

"Hey there, Shining Twilight right? So how's your day been so far?" Random Question said.

"Don't talk to me..." Shining Twilight says before pushing Random Question out of her way.

Only for him to suddenly appear in front of her.

"Look,I don't know why you don't like me,but I just want to tell you that your invited to a "Welcome to Ponyville Party" that I am throwing so yeah, I'll see you at the library." Random Question says as he leaves.

Shining Twilight was lost for words.

("A party? For me? But I was so rude to him...") Shining Twilight says in her thoughts.

"Shining, are you alright?" Spine says with worry.

"Yeah I'm fine, I just zoned out is all. Come on, let's go find that decorator." Shining Twilight said.

"Okay." Spine says cheerfully.

The two friends eventually find a black earth pony mare setting up some nature themed decorations at the Ponyville City Hall, her cutie mark being a ladybug.

She was so busy with the decorations that she didn't see Shining Twilight behind her.

"Hello there!" Shining Twilight says in an attempt to be a little more friendly.

"Eep! D-don't hurt me!" the mare says timidly.

"Whoa, it's okay I won't hurt you, what's your name?" Shining Twilight asked her.

"M-midnight Serenade." the mare said.

"Wow, that's a beautiful name!" Shining Twilight said.

"T-thank you, what's yours?" Midnight Serenade said.

"My name is Shining Twilight, I was sent from Canterlot to..." Shining Twilight never got to finish as Midnight Serenade squealed with delight.

"Canterlot!? Oh my goodness, I've always dreamed of being there! " Midnight Serenade said.

"Right..." Shining Twilight says in a deadpan.

"Oh my Solarwind, Your mane!" Midnight Serenade says after noticing Shining Twilight's messy mane.

"Don't worry about it. I was planning on fixing it myself." Shining Twilight said.

"Oh no let me, you've been so kind to me, and I want to return the favor." Midnight Serenade said.

"Okay." Shining Twilight said.

Midnight Serenade easily fixes Shining Twilight's mane and then returns back to her decorations.

Shining Twilight then says her goodbyes to Midnight Serenade and then heads over to the library, her assistant following right behind her.

The two friends eventually make it to library but find that Random Question was already there.

"You again!?" Shining Twilight said.

"Hello!" Random said.

"Ugh, just let me by, I've had a long day." Shining Twilight said.

"Okay, but did you have fun?" he says.

"Kind of..." Shining Twilight said.

"And you did make some friends right?" Random Question said.

"Y-yeah I did." Shining Twilight said.

"Heh, and with this party of mine in this library, I'm sure you'll make more." Random Question says cheerfully.

"But... I was so rude to you, why are you so nice to me?" Shining Twilight says in concern.

"Because, I can see that your a good pony, and I think that you'd be a good friend to not only me, but all of my friends as well." Random Question.

"I...*sighs*, I'm sorry if I've been rude to you, I was just so worried about the "Mare in the Moon" that I..." Shining Twilight said but was cut off by Random Question.

"Hold that thought!" Random Question said.

"What?" Shining Twilight said.

"Did you say "Mare in the Moon"?! " Random Question said.

"Um... Yes?" Shining Twilight said.

"Heh, so it begins..., Come inside." Random Question says in a serious tone.

"Okay," Shining Twilight says as she follows him.

The two ponies and one dragon went inside the library and we're greeted by a loud, "SURPRISE!" from all of the ponies in Ponyville.

"Whoa!" Shining Twilight says in shock.

"Cool,right?" Random Question said.

"What is all of this?" Spine said.

"It's your Welcome to Ponyville party, do you like it?" Random Question said.

Shining Twilight was speechless, she only looked around and had noticed all of the ponies she meet during her time in Ponyville.

"Heh,make yourself at home." Random says happily as he goes over to a nearby snack table.

("I think I could relax for today,I guess I can worry about the Mare in the Moon tomorrow.") Shining Twilight says in her thoughts before joining Random Question in his little snack quest.

Author's Note

This story is based off of the very first adventure that Twilight Sparkle had, but it is much more different.

(forgot to mention that Spike and Ember switch places in this Au as well...)

Spine the Dragon: a young and really cute female dragon who is the assistant to Shining Twilight, she is the counterpart to Dragon Lord Ember.

Dragon Lord Xeres: a powerful dragon male who rules over the Dragon Lands, he is Spike's counterpart.

(one more thing, Random Question lives in the cottage by the Everfree Forest.)

The Nightmare's return.

The Nightmare's return.

Waking up was a little difficult since the party that Random Question threw nearly later the whole night and I hardly got any sleep but I was still able to wake up just fine, my assistant however was still asleep so I had to wake her up.

"Spine?" I had but I received no response.

"Spine wake up." I say once more, this time I did receive a response.

"Huh? Oh,*yawns* Morning "Shine", what's up?" she asked me.

"You know what's up Spine, we have to go to the Summer Sun Celebration today!" I said.

"Oh no! We've gotta go "Shine" ." Spine said.

The two of us then went outside the library and ran over to the town hall.

We eventually made it to the town hall and watched as the mayor of Ponyville gave her speech.

"I hope everything goes well with the Celebration." I had said nervously.

"Relax,everything will be fine." Spine said.

The two of us then quieted down as the mayor eventually started to announce the Princess.

"And now to start this Summer Sun Celebration, Princess Solarwind!" the Mayor says as Windfeather opens the curtains, only to reveal that nopony was there.

"What!? Where's Princess Solarwind?" I asked myself as the ponies all around me started to panic.

Just then a wicked laugh filled the air, we all looked around in horror to find the source of the laughter and it wasn't long until said source showed itself by appearing in a veil of darkness, what stepped of out of that darkness was a dark grey Alicorn mare whose mane looked as if it was made of pure darkness, her eyes were slitted not unlike those of a dragon's and she wore midnight blue armor.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing, it turns out the legends were true, this was none other than the "Nightmare" herself, Nightfall Nova.

Nightfall Nova then does another wicked laugh before saying"BEHOLD, THY RIGHTFUL RULER HATH RETURNED!"

"Who are you!?" one mare said.

"And what have you done with the Princess!?" another added

Both voices where familiar but I couldn't remember as to who said what.

"Does nopony recall the legend,did nopony see the signs?!" Nightfall Nova says as lightning strikes nearby.

"I know, your Nightfall Nova otherwise known as the mare in the moon!" I said.

"Ah, yes at least somepony knows who I am, but do you know what I came to do?" Nightfall Nova said.

"Yes your here too...,oh no." I said.

"That's right remember the this day as it'll be the last day for all of eternity! *evil laughter*" once the Evil Alicorn said that,she then vanished in a plume of black smoke.

I was left stunned after Nightfall Nova had left, eternal night? What was I going to do, it was at this moment that I saw Random Question walk up to me.

"It looks like you were right about that Nightfall Nova huh?" The brown earth pony said.

"I -I am? I mean of course I am. " I say with false confidence.

Random simply chuckled then brought me over to a table where his friends were all conversing with one another.

"Oi, "Shiny" 'ow we gettin' outta dis mess?" Windfeather asks me

"I'm not sure..." I had said to her.

"Hmm, Think about this, Nightfall Nova's shadow appeared to head off to the left right?" Random Question said.

"Yeah but that's where the Everfree Forest is, if we go there we might never come back.... or so I heard." I said.

"But if we don't we'll never know just why Nightfall Nova wants eternal night." Random Question had said.

"I-i don't know, the Everfree sounds scary" Midnight Serenade said.

"But if we don't go we may never know just why Nightfall Nova is how she is." Random Question says.

"Then I guess it's settled, c'mon everypony to the Everfree Forest!" I say as Random and his friends follow me.

It took us about thirty minutes to reach the Everfree Forest and when we did we came upon a huge lion like creature, thankfully Midnight Serenade was able to get us past it, the next thing we came upon was a ravine but Windfeather found a way around it , next up were these weird tree with very sharp "teeth" that looked like they would eat us but Sunny Sky started laughing at them, we weren't sure why she did but she told us to laugh so we did and somehow it got us past the evil looking trees, we then came upon a ragged bridge on which we sent Moonlit Sky to go check it out, it took her longer than we expected but she told us the bridge was fine and we were free to cross, so we did. We then saw a huge and very old castle and after a while we all went inside.

"T-this place is creepy,can we go home now?" Midnight Serenade says as we looked around the castle.

"We can't go home just yet Midnight." I said.

"Oh ok..." Midnight said.

The six of us eventually find sure the elements are, I went to check it out and saw that only five of the six were there.

"I don't get it, the legend says that there are six elements, why is there five?" I would ask myself.

All of a sudden I was sent to another room, but I wasn't alone in front of me was Nightfall Nova herself.

"Where is the last element Nightfall!" I said.

"Well aren't you a brave one. To come all this way for some useless stones... " the Nightmare said.

"They're not useless, they're the Elements of Harmony!" I boldly said as I stood my ground.

"Foolish girl, your courage will be your undoing! " Nightfall says before she charges at me.

Thinking quickly I teleported myself behind her making her miss me.

"You stubborn little brat! " Nightfall Nova said. "Very well let's see how your elements handle this! " Nightfall would then smash the elements to pieces in front of my eyes.

In the first time in my life I felt anger, I wanted to blast her with a spell right there but I noticed a hoof on my shoulder.

"Shine? Please calm down, even if the elements are broken our friendship cannot be." Midnight Serenade says in a kind manner.

It was then I realized she was right, I did have friends and I'm not going to let them down!

The other three of my friends joined me by my side ready to help.

"You're not alone here Shine, remember that. " Random said.

"Yeah we're gonna get this baddie good! " Windfeather said.

"We can do this! " Sunny Sky said.

"Cause we're all best friends! " Moonlit Sky says after her twin.

"What are you ponies talking about, you cannot beat me with friendship alone, your efforts are just in vain! " Nightfall Nova says before laughing.

"Maybe so but you forgot one thing, Friendship is Magic!" I said in defiance.

Once I said that the elements started to glow and float over to their respective bearers.

"Impossible! " Nightfall Nova said. "I destroyed them!"

"Random Question for volunteering your time to help me and my friends out you're the element of generosity. " I said.

"Sweet" Random says as the element forms a necklace and goes around his neck. The gem was in the shape of his cutie mark.

"Midnight for your help with the lion I name you the element of kindness. " I say as I point to Midnight.

Midnight's Element seemed to change into an anklet at first before becoming a necklace as well, it had a pink bird shaped gem on it.

"Sunny your the Element of Laughter as you always find a way to make us giggle. " I said.

Sunny simply giggled as her Element landed on her neck, it's gem was a sun.

"Moonlit Sky, for your endless bravery you are hereby known as the Element of Loyalty. " I say as Moonlit Sky happily accepts her Element. The gem on it had a moon.

"Windfeather, your the Element of Honesty, as no lie can get past you. " I said.

"Well ain't that somethin' " Windfeather says as her Element went on her neck, it's gem was a cloud.

"And Finally I am the Element of Magic! " I say as the last element appears over my head with my cutie mark as it's gem, it then landed on my head.

"This cannot be! I cannot fail here! No! " Nightfall Nova says before she is blasted by a massive rainbow beam.

"Did we win? " Midnight said.

"I dunno but I think we did." I said.

All of a sudden a bright light would come down into the room and reveal Princess Solarwind in all of her beauty.

"P-princess!? Your okay! "" I said to my mentor.

"You all did a wonderful job my little ponies, not only did you defeat the Nightmare, you have returned my sister to me. " Solarwind would say before she goes to her sister whom was lying on the ground.

Seeing her sister for the first time was rather stunning to say the least, her mane was like an aurora and her body was as white as snow, her cutie mark was a crescent moon with three star like diamonds next to it.

"Sister, please forgive me for my actions. I was just so jealous and... " the other princess never finished as her older sister would hug her.

"It is alright Aurora, I forgive you. " Princess Solarwind said.

"Oh Solarwind.... " Princess Aurora says as she hugs her older sister.

It was then that Princess Solarwind would send us home.
