Winter Wrap Up

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

A few months have passed sense the dragon incident. It was the night before the last day of winter.

"Wake up Spike!" i heard Twi say from upstairs, waking me up. "It's time to wrap up winter" she continued as she walked downstairs.

"Twi" i said before she reached the door. "It's not even dawn yet" i continued.

"Oh..." said Twi. "Never mind then" she said as she went back upstairs.

A couple hours later it was actually time to wake up.

"OK, what's on the Agenda Twi?" I asked.

"We have to help Ponyville clean up winter" said Twi. "And we cant use magic, goes against Ponyville tradition" she continued.

"Got it" i said.

"Wouldn't it get done faster with magic?" Asked Spike.

"Yes it would Spike, but Ponyville was founded by earth ponies" said Twi. "And every town uses the founders traditions for holidays" she continued.

"No offense Twi" i said. "But ive been living with you for almost six months" i continued. "And you arnt capable of doing anything that can be done for this tradition without your magic" i concluded.

"You know he's right Twi" said Spike.

"If i where you id talk to the Mayor about find a new thing you could do" i said.

"Your right" she said surprisingly happy.

We walked to where Mayor Mare was supervising the clean up.

"Mayor Mare" said Twi as we walked up to her.

"What can i help you with Twilight?" Asked Mayor Mare as she finished helping another pony.

"Well, im not that good at any of the tasks for the clean up" said Twi. "So i was wondering if there was anything else i could do" she continued.

"You could help me with running everything" said Mayor Mare. "Im over worked every year" she continued.

"Id be glad to help" said Twi.

"This wrapped up way faster then i was expecting" i said.

After we finished wrapping up winter me, Spike and Twi where chilling in the Treebrary.

"That was actually kinda fun" said Spike.

"I knew you'd enjoy it" said Twi.

"It is weird to me that magic is forbidden for that tradition" i said. "Who cares how fast it gets done?" I asked. "I know i don't" i continued.

"It's just tradition" said Twi.

"It's a stupid tradition" i said. "Who care if Earth Ponies where the ones that founded this town, none Earth Ponies shouldn't have to follow there traditions" i continued.

"OK, i actually see where your coming from with that point" said Twi. "But no one in town complains, so they must all be OK with using Earth Pony tradition" she continued.

"And that's fine, but what if a pony comes along who doesn't want to conform to the masses?" I asked.

"I don't know" said Twi. "I'll talk to Mayor Mare about it tomorrow" she continued as she went up to bed. "Goodnight Pax, goodnight Spike" said Twi before she closed her door.

"Night Twi" me and Spike said at the same time. Not long after Spike also went his room.

I was laying down looking at the space stone inside the infinity gauntlet on my left hand. 'When will the next stone show it self?' I thought to myself as i went to sleep.
