"Gooood morning, PONYVILLLLLLLLLLLLEEE!!!!" declared Rainbow Dash as she flew across her hometown, bright and early to clear away some small errant clouds to give everypony a clear and happy morning!

She flew past the Library Tree, startling Owlowiscious awake, who gave a curt "Hoo..." in response before he found himself enjoying the warm morning light. Shrugging his wings, he flew over to sleeping Princess Twilight and gently pecked at her horn, not hurting her, merely to rouse her awake.

"Stop..." Twilight moaned as she turned over, only for Owlowiscious to flap over and then reach with his wing to tickle his owner's nose. It made her giggle before she started, "Ah... Ah! ACHOO!"

"HOO!" Owlowiscious flapped back up onto his perch while Twilight sat up in bed and stretched out any bed kinks.

"Good morning, Owlowiscious...!" Twilight gasped and looked to her window and smiled, "It's morning!"

The morning of a new day, a fresh start. The morning after one of her biggest mistakes. In retrospect, Twilight felt like such a fool, to have gone to such lengths to make a friendship report over the assumption that she was supposed to have learned something new about friendship every single week and send a report about it to her teacher, Princess Celestia. Looking back, she remembered the Sun Princess had tasked her with learning Friendship but never actually said she was to report her findings and experiences every single week!

It was my own assumption and... Twilight sighed before she sat before her vanity, making sure not to wake Spike, who still snoozed in his basket. She brushed her mane and coat, added just a spritz of her favorite perfume, Essence of Lavender, and got her game face on.

"But today is a new day!"

Magicking over her agenda, she let the positive energy fill her up as she felt a song coming on!

(Skip to 1:00)

Alright, Twilight, what's on the schedule today?
Breakfast, shopping, and then lunch at that new café
Practice a spell, this is looking real swell, and woah!
Girl it couldn't be better!

"Mm, hey Twilight," Spike woke up, rubbing his eyes but smiled at his adoptive sister, "You're in a good mood."

"Morning, Spike," Twilight was musing on what else to add to the schedule, "And yes, I am! I just have a really good feeling about today!"

"As opposed to yesterday...?" Spike gave Twilight a cheeky look as he got up to get ready for the day as well.

"I know, not one of my shining moments," Twilight gave a sheepish grin while she made some buttered and cinnamon toast, "But today... I just can't help but feel that it's going to be wonderful!"

Shake the sleep off, and kick into the morning drill
(Twilight pulled on her saddlebags, grabbed some money, and levitated Spike onto her back)
It's another happy day here in Ponyville!
(She stepped out the door, breathing in the morning air)
No need to fear, time to spread the good cheer, and woah!
Things just couldn't be better!

Twilight trotted out merry and happy, smiling to passerby, Spike waving, as they enjoyed their toast on the go.

Call it hope or faith, whatever!
I just know in my heart, that today will be one to remember...!
(Twilight ran out into Ponyville Square)

`Cause there's Celestia's sun in the morning sky
And the mood couldn't be any brighter
And there goes Rainbow Dash a'rocketing by
(Rainbow Dash soared o'er Ponyville Square before landing beside Twilight and Spike)
And Pinkie can't smile any wider!
(Pinkie Pie popped outfrom behind the fountain statue, grinning from ear to ear as she and Rainbow joined in on the song)

It's like a funhouse ride that you just can't miss
Call it crazy and yet, is there anything better than this?
Life just couldn't be better than this!

"Hey, Twi! What's all the singing about?" asked Rainbow Dash with a laugh.

"Hi girls, I'm just feeling so good," Twilight smiled as Spike hopped off her back.
"Twilight's just feeling like today's gonna be a good one," the little dragon explained.
"And with this little schedule, that's a guarantee," Twilight nodded, only for Rainbow Dash to snatch it from her telekinetic grasp. "Hey!"

"Twi, if you wanna have a great day, then don't plan it!" Rainbow Dash tossed the schedule into a nearby public trashcan.
"Dashie's right, Twi," Pinkie threw her arm around Twilight's withers while holding her other one out, "Just go with the flow, see where the day takes you!"

"But... my schedule!" Twilight whined a little.

Twi, forget that! We'll tell you what today will bring!
First a shindig, then a bash, then more partying!
Wrap it up with a Rainboom high above (oh-woah-oh)
Yeah, you know it couldn't be better!
(Rainbow Dash flew off while Pinkie hopped around, saying hi to everypony)

"Howdy, Twilight!" Twilight and Spike turned towards the marketplace where they saw the Apple Siblings pony-ing their apple stand as Applejack held out some kind of treat, "Got somthin' here fer y'all to try!"

"Hi Applejack!" Spike said as he and Twilight approached AJ's stand.

"It's Granny Smith's latest recipe for apple pie!" Applejack cut a piece each for Twilight and Spike, the little dragon going 'Yum!' as Applejack continued, "Have a bite, got more fer th' kids' delight! Bloom?"

Applejack tossed a piece to Apple Bloom who chomped it down with one gulp, as she declared, "It just couldn't taste better!" "Eeyup!"

I can't help but feel something's coming
(Twilight shared an excited smile with Spike)

But until it arrives might as well get this party humming!(Yee-haw!)
(Pinkie Pie started zipping around, decorating town square while Applejack and her siblings helped prepare a buffet table)

Yes, it's an earth pony, pegasus, unicorn town
But the folks couldn't be any sweeter (Sweeter!)
(Twilight and Spike helped Fluttershy as she was leading some ducklings across the way)
So call it upside, backwards, or wrong-side down
But it just couldn't feel more completer
(The locals gathered around Twilight as the rest of her friends joined her)

There's so much to do
And it's all such bliss
There's no reason to fret
What could ever be better than this?
No, it couldn't get better than-

"OhHhWHOAoAOaOaAoOooo...!!!"

Everypony flinched and froze in place as they took notice of Pinkie Pie's whole body going into an involuntary shudder.

"Pinkie are you okay?" Twilight kept her distance from the party pony before daring to ask, "Is it...?"

"Oh yeah! It's a DoOOooOooOoooOOOOzy!" Pinkie shuddered again, "Something totally unexpected is about to happen right here in Ponyville!"


Outside of Ponyville, a figure saw Ponyville in the distance.

The figure was a pony, but something was very different about her. She had snow white fur and her mane and tail were thicker than a normal pony's mane and tail. Her mane and tail were also white as snow and instead of hooves she had paws with retractable claws which were hidden inside of her paws. Also, her teeth were not all flat compared to ponies, it was a mixture of canines and flat teeth, meaning that she ate plants.... and meat. Her ears were wolf like as well and her snout was black.

"Hmmm.... looks like a nice place.." she said in a raspy voice before she made her way into the town.


"Mmm, this is good," Spike enjoyed the sandwich he'd ordered as he and the rest of the girls enjoyed a nice lunch at the new café that had recently opened, "So what's going on with the rest of you?"

"Well, applebuckin' season's comin' up," Applejack replied before taking a swig of her drink, "and Nightmare Night ain't far off either."

"And some of my critters and birds are already preparing for the winter coming after fall is over," added Fluttershy.

"Say AJ, you up for another Iron Pony competition, followed by the Running of the Leaves?" challenged Rainbow Dash.

"Darlings, must we discuss competition during our lunch hour?" Rarity piped in, "I'd really rather not hear the two of you get into it yet again."

"And besides, didn't-" Twilight tried to say, only for Pinkie to interrupt with another uncontrollable bout of shuddering, causing Twilight to sigh and wait till Pinkie settled. "How much longer are you gonna keep doing that?"

"I told you, everypony," Pinkie answered, "there's a doozy coming and- GASP!!!"

Pinkie Pie gaped in utter shock down the way, and everypony followed her line of sight and saw she was looking at a strange looking pony as she just walked through town, earning gasps and fearful looks from the other ponies near her. Pinkie Pie to pop up in front of her, stopping her in her tracks

"Hi there, stranger! You new in town? I can tell, because I know everypony - And I mean everypony - in Ponyville! What's your name? Where you from? What do you do for a living?" The mare covered Pinkie's mouth with her paw and said. "I'm just passing through, pony. That's all..." she said.

"But aren't you gonna stay and make friends?" Pinkie asked.

"Sorry, don't want any friends..." the mare replied before walking past a shocked Pinkie Pie.

Pinkie then reappeared in front of her, "What? How could you not want any friends? Friends are the greatest thing to happen for a pony."

"Not to this mare.." the mare walked past Pinkie again, "Now can you do me and favor and just leave me alone?"

Pinkie Pie then got in front of her again, much to her annoyance. "Nope, I'm gonna help you make your first friend." The mare narrowed her eyes at Pinkie before she leaped over her landing 3 feet from where Pinkie was standing, "No thanks. I told you, I don't want any friends. So see ya..." and the mare just walked away, leaving a surprised Pinkie Pie behind.

Twilight and the others then came up to Pinkie Pie, "Hmph, rude much?" Rainbow grumbled.

"Nice try Pinkie, but I think you might have gotten on her nerves." Applejack reassured.

"Pfft. With the way she talked to Pinkie, she's just plain mean.." Rainbow growled.

"Now Rainbow Dash, the mare said she didn't want any friends and Pinkie kept pushing her, so you can't entirely blame her for behaving like that." Twilight scolded.

"But how could somepony not want any friends?" Fluttershy asked.

"Uh... did you see how she looked?" Rainbow asked. "She didn't even look like a pony.. well not a normal pony."

"Yeah, she seemed more like a wolf pony if anything.." Applejack stated, making Twilight gasp in shock and awe. "It can't be...!"

"Twilight? What is it?" Rarity asked.

"To my library!" Twilight suddenly exclaimed and she teleported all of the girls and Spike to her Library where she flew up and started scanning the books for something.

"What did you get Twi?" Applejack asked as Twilight came down with a book. "I think I might know what kind of pony she is." she placed the book on the table and Rarity read the title, "Tale of the Wereponies?"

"What are wereponies?" Rainbow asked.

"I've never heard of them before." Fluttershy stated.

"That's because they were thought to extinct. It all began long ago, before the founding of Equestria began. Wereponies were powerful ponies said to be able to transform into powerful magical wolves that are bonded with Nature. Legends say that the wereponies lived in peace in the forest, valleys and fields of Equestria before Equestrian Settlers came and wanted the land for themselves or wanted to control all of Nature to their liking.

The two sides fought viciously for the land of Equestria and for survival until finally the Equestrian Settlers were said to have killed all of the Wereponies that ever existed, leaving the species extinct....." Twilight read the legend and the girls were horrified.

"Oh my goodness..!" Fluttershy gasped. "T-They killed them without any sense of mercy?"

Twilight sadly shook her head, "To the Settlers, the wereponies were just pest, meant to be exterminated from the land forever.."

"Woah..... that's overkill..." Rainbow said sadly.

"No wonder everypony else was so shocked to hear about her." Applejack said.

"W-We should tell the Princess about this." Fluttershy suggested.

"No Fluttershy, not yet... it might be too risky.." Twilight stated.

"Risky?" Pinkie asked.

"Darling, if this mare is the last of her entire species then if the Princess found out and confront her, a lot of ponies will know she exists too and they might try to harm to poor dear." Rarity explained to the hyper mare.

"Rarity's right. For now we keep her existence a secret from the Princess. Right now, we have to find this mare and try to help her." Twilight said.

"Help her..? What problem could she possibly have?" Rainbow asked. Just after she asked that, the mares cutie marks started shimmering and glowing before fainted images of them floated up and out of the room. The mares followed them to the throne room which held their thrones and the Cutie Map. The six cutie marks floated over to the map and hovered over Ponyville.

"My guess.... a friendship problem.." Spike stated.


The mare, meanwhile, was by herself in a field just laying down and enjoying the sounds of Nature. "Ahhhh...." she sighed, before her ears picked up something, "I can hear you six you know.." she called before she got up and turned, coming face to face with Twilight and the Mane Six. "What do you want?"

"Uh... Hi... my name is Princess Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends; Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Fluttershy." Twilight introduced, "Maybe... you could tell us your name...?"

"...... Eclipse Paw...." Eclipse said. "So... what do you want...?"

"We're not here to cause you any harm, darling." Rarity reassured. "But maybe we could be friends...?"

"No thanks... I don't need any friends." Eclipse stated to them.

"But why..?"

"Cause I'm destined to be alone in this world." Eclipse replied.

"Destined to be alone?" Twilight echoed in shock. "W-Why would you think that?"

"I never really fit in with my pack. They all saw me as different because of my white fur. They don't know where it came from cause everyone in my pack has black and brown fur. They have no idea how I got white fur, so I was considered an outcast. After a while, I saw that I would never fit in with my pack, so I left... and became self exiled." Eclipse explained. "I've been living on my own for years since I was a pup."

Twilight and the girls were shocked at Eclipse's story. "Anyway, I just rather not have any friends cause they'll just exile you at the first difference. So... see ya.." and Eclipse walked off again leaving the stunned girls behind.
