(These, as stated are the generation 3.5 ponies, to get an idea of what they are like, watch the movie Twinkle Wish Adventure, its on youtube in its entirety (it will also give you a little bit of understanding in what the twinkle wish star is). I always wanted to give the gen 3.5 ponies some attention, no one really brings them up (save the newborn cuties) its always gen 3 that gets the bulk of negative attention.
They have the honour of being the last generation to have a movie.
Twilight Sparkle woke up, today was the big day, Canterlot's completion! Princess Celestia was inviting everyone to a great celebration and Twilight knew how important this was. Equestria was finally taking shape.
"Spike, wake up, come on!" Twilight said, getting out of bed, a few books falling on the floor. "Errmm, what is it?" Spike softly muttered.
"Today Canterlot is finally completed, the princess is having a huge celebration and we're both invited" Twilight replied with a huge grin.
"Big deal, there was already a city here before" Spike said, shifting over.
"Yes, Unicornia, but this is different, this isn't like some little town or something, this is Princess Celestia's home, the capital of all of Equestira! It's a big deal" Twilight exclaimed, putting some books away with her magic.
The party was the biggest Twilight had ever seen, she knew it would be big, but this was insane.
"Welcome everyone, I want to welcome you to Canterlot for the first time! This is the first day of a new Equestria!" Princess Celestia announced, and a hail of cheers erupted.
Twilight made her way threw the crowd, Spike had been fallowing her but got side tracked when he saw the food table.
Princess Celestia was talking to guests when she saw Twilight.
"Oh good Twilight, I need to talk to you about something-"
Another few ponies quickly approached Princess Celestia, interrupting Twilight.
"Princess, we have acquired the last of the land you had sought, a town called Ponyville, the demolition is beginning as we speak!" one said.
"Wonderful, Twilight, I will speak to you later, for now, just enjoy yourself, have something to eat and mingle" Celestia said, walking away with the newcomers.
Twilight sighed and went off to find Spike.
Pinkie Pie woke up bright and early to the sound of birds chirping. She and Toola-Roola had a big party to plan for Rainbow Dash, and had to get over to Sweetie Belle's to help with all that baking. Sweetie Belle was good, but they needed to make a lot and she had happily taken the offer.
The party would be held at Cheerilee's, where she, Scootaloo and Starsong were going to be, setting up the decorations and wrapping any missed gifts.
Pinkie Pie was excited, no matter how many parties she helped plan, they always seemed like her first. Life was great, Ponyville was bright and colourful, and deep down she never wanted these days to end.
“Pinkie Pie! Come on, we gotta get over to Sweetie Belle's as quick as we can!” Toola-Roola shouted from outside, Pinkie waved from the window and ran downstairs and out the door.
“This is going to be my best party yet I can feel it!” she said with a smile, and the two ran off to Sweetie Belle's, brimming with excitement.
All was not well at Sweetie Belle's home, when Pinkie Pie and Toola-Roola got there, her house had been put onto a massive wagon, being pulled by dozens of ponies, they were moving her house!
“Hey what's going on, what are you doing to Sweetie Belle's house?!” Pinkie said, rushing up to one of the workers, Sweetie Belle seemed beside herself, sitting on the ground, Scootaloo trying to comfort her.
“Ponyville's been sold, the Mayor sold it two days ago, it was bought by the Royal family and is now part of Equestria. All the stuff the new Mayor doesn't want is either torn down and the owner, is given a fraction of what they paid, or we move the house to the free zone and you can live there. We're sorry we are just doing our job” the man said, and ordered some pegasus ponies to begin lashing down the house. Starsong was next to turn up, mystified at all the pegasus ponies.
“Wow look at them all! I've never seen so many peg-hey what are they doing to Sweetie Belle's house?!” she shouted in horror.
“Ponyville's...been sold...they're going to move all our houses, outside to the grasslands...” Toola-Roola replied sadly.
“There must be something we can do!” Starsong protested, looking up at the house again.
“There isn't... Mayor Flitter-Flatter already signed the papers, if we had known sooner, we might have been able to do something...but as it stands the Ponyville we knew is gone...” Pinkie Pie sighed and looked at the ground, it had been torn up, Sweetie Belle's front yard was gone, and was just a bunch of dirt and stones. She tried to hold back the tears, as best she could. Sweetie Belle was already crying, as was Scootaloo.
Not one hour ago, she was getting ready for a wonderful party, now her whole world was ripped clean, right under her hooves.
“Hey, move it or lose it! We got a lot of work to do, and can't have anyone hanging around!” another pony shouted.
Pinkie Pie looked angrily over at the pony, trying to find something to say, but nothing came out.
“T-that was my house” Sweetie Belle sobbed.
“I know, we're not going to break it, but we have to move it, thats how it goes, I am not the bad guy here, but you gotta move so you don't get hurt. We're going to put a bakery here!” the forman said, trying somewhat to sound sincere.
“I just want my house” Sweetie Belle cried again, Pinkie going over to comfort her. “You know if you really did care about us you wouldn't have us all move! This is our town, we were going to have a party today for Rainbow Dash! And now, all because of a silly piece of paper, we lose everything?! How a-”
“Look, just go, you're only making this harder for yourseves!” the forman said, rather harshly.
The girls sighed and looked at eachother.
“Come on girls, lets find out where they are taking our homes!” Toola-Roola added, rather sternly. Pinkie Pie got Sweetie Belle up and they all left, Starsong staying behind for a second, looking at the various pegasus ponies flying in the sky, then left with her friends.
“We have to keep our heads up, everybody, we can have the party still. They can't take away Rainbow Dash's birthday!” Pinkie Pie tried to sound happy, but she just felt like crying.
“I couldn't bake anything Pinkie... not a cookie or a cake...or even a muffin” Sweetie Belle sniffed. Cheerilee and Rainbow Dash were waiting by the old town square, a pile of wood and rocks, much of the wood still had paint on them, they reconized a lot of it.
“There's the bakery...and the post office...and that was town hall” Cheerilee seemed emotionless, looking down at the rubble and ruins.
“I've lived in Ponyville my whole life, grew up here...I went to that bakery every day, I met you there Pinkie, we swapped a muffin recipie and you said you loved the colour of my mane” she began to silently cry, picking up a ruffled sign that said Ponyville Bakery and putting it into her saddle bag.
“I wish I had asked to just keep my home...and not for that silly hat” Rainbow Dash muttered.
“None of us could see this coming Rainbow Dash, besides it's a nice hat I am sure you'll look great in it” Pinkie said, trying to smile.
“At least we still have eachother...that's something?” Toola-Roola added. “We do, indeed, Ponyville may be gone, but we will always have eachother, and who knows? Maybe this new Ponyville will be a bright new future for us! New friends, bigger parties, more adventures, a huge market! It may seem sad now but this could be a whole new beginning for us all” Pinkie said looking at all the cranes and construction in the distance.
The others tried to smile but were still, understandably, very upset.
Their houses had been relocated to the grasslands, one small dirt road lead back into Ponyville and the rest of Equestria, beyond they had no idea what was there, moutains, ugly and jagged, stood to their left, and to the right a massive forest full of huge dark trees.
Quite a scene change from the lovely rolling hills of Ponyville, or what used to be Ponyville.
They even took the old sign Toola-Roola made and won a ribbon for, a few years back. She had held her tears back for everything, but when she looked out Pinkie's window and saw them taking down her sign, she cried.
No one was surprised and all tried to comfort her, but deep down they were all trying not to cry.
The party was over, it was hard to keep in good spirits, really no one wanted to be alone, so they just all sat together, having a quiet meal and trying not to replay the morning in their minds.
The next day Pinkie Pie had woken up rather late. She seemed drained, it all seemed so unreal, looking out of the window, almost expecting to see Ponyville, bright and cheery. Her heart sank when she saw the field, almost as if her mind still couldn't believe it.
She wished for hours it was all a dream...
There was a soft knock at the door, Pinkie slowly trudged downstairs to see who it was.
It was Rainbow Dash, she looked ruffled and upset, (rightly so) though they had all tried to have fun at the party, everyone had a lot of thinking ahead of them.
“Hi Pinkie...just wanted to say hi, we're all so close...now...” Rainbow Dash sighed, giving up on saying whatever it is she came over for, hanging her head down.
“I know Rainbow Dash” Pinkie tried to smile, the two walking down the dirt road to the other houses. “I was thinking, maybe we could go to the new Ponyville today, see what it looks like” Pinkie suggested, Rainbow Dash seemed uninterested, the others begun to appear, one by one, outside, though they looked just as miserable. All except Toola-Roola, who, as Sweetie Belle pointed out, was looking up at the new Ponyville town sign.
“She's been there for more then an hour now” Sweetie Belle said. “I was gonna go say something but Cheerilee told me not to” Scootaloo added, looking at the ground.
“We all have to cope in our own way Scootaloo, this is Toola-Roola's way, I think we should just let her be and sort herself out” Cheerilee said, looking down at her little sister.
“Shouldn't we try and help her? I mean she is our friend!” Scootaloo protested.
“I think Cheerilee is right, Toola-Roola knows we are all here for her, but some things a person really needs to sort out themselves, this is something we all need to sort out for outselves, in our own ways” Pinkie Pie replied, looking up at the sky, as the clouds were pushed out of Ponyville by several pegasus ponies.
“Well I'm going to try anyways!” Scootaloo said and ran off towards Toola-Roola. The others tried to protest but didn't try and stop her, maybe Toola-Roola wouldn't mind?
“Toola-Roola? Are you okay?” Scootaloo quietly asked, nudging the pony with her head.
“I don't know Scootaloo, I feel...like a part of me is missing, I never lived anywhere else besides Ponyville... It was more then just a bunch of buildings and grass and stuff...it was a part of me, a part of all of us I think” she gave a sigh and walked away from the sign, towards the others.
“I know how you feel, we all do... but I still think this could be a good thing, like Pinkie said. I mean there are pegasus everywhere now, I only used to see them when family comes to visit, and Sweetie Belle isn't the only unicorn now, this could be a whole new set of adventures and friends!” Starsong said, sounding enthusiastic (the only one who was).
“Well, we'll never know unless we go look” Pinkie Pie replied and started down the dirt road to Ponyville, the others fallowing behind her.
The new Ponyville had gone up rather quickly, buildings were really taking shape, roads were being made, it was just a pile of rubble when they left, now it was a whole new town!
“Its surreal...isn't it?” Pinkie Pie muttered, to no one in particular. “What do we do now? Cheerilee asked, looking at the others.
“What do you mean?” Scootaloo replied, running up beside her sister.
“Well, I don't want to live here anymore, its...just too painful..." Rainbow Dash muttered. Though none said the same, everyone felt it. What was left for them?
"Hey look!" Starsong said, motioning up to the sky. A flying chariot appeared out of nowhere, going in the direction of Ponyville, they were all memorized, none of them having seen anything like that.
"Where do you think it came from?" Sweetie Belle asked curiously.
"If I had to guess, Unicornia, they've rebuilt so much of it, fancied it up. I heard a Princess lives there now" Pinkie Pie replied, looking off at Canterlot. They stood, looking at the mountain, silent, before continuing on to the new Ponyville.
The chariot had landed by time they got there, Starsong had hurried ahead so she could see it some more.
A purple pony had gotten out, with a small dragon and begun to walk around.
"Come on Twilight, maybe the ponies in Ponyville, have some interesting things to say"
"Uh, hi there, I'm Twilight Sp-"
The pink pony jumped in the air and took off like a rocket, leaving the two confused.
Sweetie Belle had been the only one watching, the others looking elsewhere, mostly at the buildings.
"Hey she's a unicorn" she muttered, smiling.
