My Little Pony: Harmonic Nine

Well today was Christmas time again in Equestria and we were all at Twilight’s castle, where everything was decorated for Christmas; holiday lights, a large Christmas Tree, and all other Christmas decorations and all the ponies in Ponyville were present as well. Our families came to Equestria as well to celebrate with us, thanks to Discord teleporting then here.

This was going to be the best day ever!

It was the day before Hearth’s Warming Eve or Christmas, as I call it and my friends and I were looking over the party from upstairs when Sarah and Snowflake came in.

“Hey Sarah, ready to celebrate your first Hearths’ Warming Eve here in Ponyville?” Twilight asked.

“Eh.. I was thinking I might just skip it.” Sarah stated bluntly. We all gasped, surprised. “Skip Hearth’s Warming Eve?!” Spike exclaimed.

“Why in the world would you want to do that?” I asked.

“Yeah, Private Gem, Christmas is the best holiday.” Skye added.

“I just don’t feel like celebrating.” Sarah stated. She began to walk away, but I stopped her, “Wait, Sarah, why don’t you want to celebrate Christmas?”

Sarah’s face turned a bit sad. “It’s a… sensitive subject.” she replied before saying. “I’m gonna go to the library.” then she trotted away to the library.

“Well that was… unexpected.” Spike said.

“Yeah, she looked kinda sad when you wanted to know why she doesn’t want to celebrate.” Kodi stated.

“She did. Didn’t she. Wonder why?” Rainbow added.

“Well why don’t we try asking her again?” Pinkie suggested.

“Pinkie, she said it was a sensitive topic so maybe we should just let her tell us when she’s ready?” Twilight suggested.

“I think Twilight’s right. Askin her now is only gonna make her not tell us anything else. We should lay off of her until the time is right.” Applejack added.

“Alright.” I said. Wonder what could make Sarah not want to celebrate Christmas Kinda of a dejavu moment when Jamie didn’t want to celebrate Christmas with us. Anyway, we decided to go down and start to enjoy the party.

Meanwhile, in the library Sarah was reading by herself with Snowflake by her side. “Oooh, what do we have here?” a familiar voice came. Sarah sighed playfully. “Yes Discord?”

Discord appeared next to her, “Why are you here in this large lonely library all alone when everypony else is enjoying Hearth’s Warming Eve?”

“Christmas… sigh.. Is not my holiday or any other holiday for that matter.” Sarah said.

“Well maybe talking to your friends would help with this lonely feeling, hmm?” Discord suggested. “You do always say tell your friends when something is wrong.”

Sarah sighed, “I did say that… Alright, I’ll tell them.” Sarah closed the book and exited the library while Discord disappeared with a snap of his fingers. She entered the party but she it was too crowded so she went upstairs. She entered a room and sat on a couch. “Sarah?”

She turned and saw the Mane 6, Ren and the others. “Are you alright?” Twilight asked.

Sarah sighed, “Well… I know you all are probably wondering why I don’t want to celebrate Christmas with all of you.”

“Yeah. Did your family not celebrate Christmas or something?” Ren asked.

“No.” Sarah said.

“Did your father not come home for Christmas like Jamies’?” Pinkie asked.

“No.”

“Then what is the reason?” Twilight asked.

“Why celebrate a holiday dedicated to family… when you never had actually celebrated Christmas?” Sarah said.

The group all gasped in horror and shock.

Ren’s POV

Unbelievable! Sarah never had celebrated Christmas?!

“You never celebrated Christmas?! Why?!” Kaede cried.

“Well my papas, mamas and other scientists were all too busy studying me to celebrate. Besides the only present I got was a book, from my papas, so not a big deal.” Sarah added and then got up, “I’m gonna go back to the home-ship. Have fun at the party guys.” and she walked out of the room with her head held low.

I can’t believe it… Sarah never knew what it was like to celebrate Christmas, a holiday where people spread hope and love, through she spreads it everywhere.

“Damn, Newbie’s had a sad life.” Jack gasped.

“Poor sugarcube.” Applejack said. “No wonder she seemed so blue.”

“Yeah, who knows how many Christmas’ she’s missed.” I added. “We have to cheer her up somehow.”

“Yeah, we can’t have her all sad and gloomy on the happiest day of the year.” Pinkie stated.

“But what can we do?” Rainbow asked. “It’s kinda obvious she doesn’t wanna celebrate.”

“We can’t just leave her alone either.” Mason said. I fully agreed with Mason, no one should be alone on Christmas, especially someone as great as Sarah.

“So what should we do?” Kaede asked.

“Well… Sarah never knew what it was like to be loved, right..?” Twilight started.

“Yeah.. and?” I asked.

“That was in your world, but what if we show her how much she’s loved in Equestria!”

Show her how much she’s loved in Equestria…? That could work!

“That’s a great plan.” Jamie meekly smiled.

“Hell yeah! For Newbie, I’m in.” Jack added.

Rantaro sighed, “Normally, I would say no, but since its’ for Sarah, I guess I have to join.”

“I must agree with Rantaro.” Nicole said, adjusting her glasses, “If it will help Sarah then I’ll help too.”

“Yeah! We’ll throw the biggest Hearth’s Warming Eve Party Ever! WAHOOO!” Pinkie cheered happily.

“Alright gang, let’s do it!” I exclaimed.

“Yeah!” Everyone cheered.

Third Person POV

Sarah walked back to the home-ship with her head hanging low. Ponies saw her and chattered about, not knowing the reason why she was so sad on a beautiful holiday.

Nevertheless, Sarah made it the home-ship and opened the door and just walked into the elevator and pressed the button. It took her to her room where she simply laid down on her bed and sighed sadly, “At least my friends will have a happy Christmas… unlike me.” She covered her face with her hoof and sighed heavily.

Ren’s POV

Meanwhile, we informed everypony in Ponyville and our families of our plan to help Sarah and they all immediately wanted to help her, knowing how much she’s helped them and Equestria. Pinkie, Applejack, the Ortega Family and the Earth Ponies would be in charge of the food.

We decided to do a Christmas show for Sarah. Twilight, Rarity, Kaede and Jamie’s families and the unicorns will be in charge of the show and decorations for the party.

Rainbow and Flutters along with my family and Jacks’ the other pegasi will be in charge of keeping the light snow so we would be able to have the party. My friends and I watched as the ponies got to work.

“This will be awesome.” I said happily.

“Yeah, Sarah deserves it.” Mason added.

“You bet. Newbie’s been one big help to us.” Jack added.

“Yeah, she’s so sweet and kind.” Carrie added. “This party will definitely cheer her up.”

I hoped Carrie was right. “We’d better go and check on Sarah, to see how she’s doing.” I suggested.

“You guys are going to see Sarah?” We tuned and saw Twilight and Spike coming over.

“Yeah.”

“Can we come?” Spike asked. “We want to check on her too.”

“Sure you guys.” I stated with a smile.

We lead Twilight and Spike to the home-ship where we found Snowflake on laying on the couch with Sarah by her side. “Hey Sarah… are you alright…?” I asked gently.

All that came out of her was a sad sigh.

“Oh man, she’s really glum.” Twilight said.

“Yeah. Maybe I should talk to her.” Spike said, but Kaede stopped him, “I don’t think so, Spike. She doesn’t seem like she’s in the mood to talk. We should try tomorrow, she might feel better by tomorrow?”

Spike saw, how sad Sarah looked and nodded in agreement. “Come on, let’s give her some space… again.” Kaede said and we all left to give our friend some space.

Sarah… I promise you.. You are loved here in Equestia and we’ll prove it to you.

The Next Day…

It was Christmas Day and I leaped out of bed, ready for the party for Sarah.

Sarah's POV

Zzz....Zzzz.....

Knock Knock

"Pikapi?"

Huh? PIkachu? What's he doing outside the door to my room? Yawn.... might as well see what he wants. I got out of bed and opened the door to find my little buddy, smiling widely. "Pikapi."

"Hi Pikachu, what is it?" I asked the little pokemon. Pikachu smiled and he leaped behind my right front leg and nudged it, "Pikachu Pika Pika.." I think he wants to me to go with him somewhere. "Okay... so where do you want to take me?"

Pikachu smiled and he guided me outside where I saw snow all along the ground. Pikachu and I entered Ponyville and just before we came to Town Hall, everyone, humans and ponies, appeared and said "SURPRISE!" and confetti came falling down, which I knew had to come from Pinkie Pie.

"W-What's this...?" I asked, confused and surprised by the party.

Pinkie Pie and the others came up to me, "This is your Christmas Party, silly billy." Pinkie Pie cooed.

My papas and Tasha came up as well, "We wanted to make up for studying you instead of spending the holidays with you, sweetie. So your pony friends, Ren and the others told us about putting on this Christmas party for you." Donald grinned.

"Y-You.. did that for me..?" I asked Ren and the others.

"Of course Sarah." Twilight smiled.

"You've done so much for Equestria. We figured it was time for us to return the favor and show you how much you mean to Equestria." Rainbow added and I was touched by their actions.

"I-I don't know what to say..." I smiled at them.

"I know... PARTY!" Pinkie Pie screamed and the others cheered happily at her attitude.

(Twilight Sparkle)
Each one of us has something special
That makes us different, that makes us rare

(Fluttershy)
We have a light that shines within us
That we were always meant to share

(All)
And when we come together
Combine the light that shines within
There is nothing we can't do
There is no battle we can't win
When we come together
There'll be a star to guide the way
It's inside us every day
See it now! See it now!
Let the rainbow remind you
That together we will always shine
Let the rainbow remind you
That forever this will be our time

(Me)
Each one of us will sometimes falter
We may stumble
We may fall

But we still have a kind of magic
One that will see us
Though it all

(All)
And when we come together
Combine the light that shines within
There is nothing we can't do
There is no battle we can't win
When we come together
There'll be a star to guide the way
It's inside us every day
See it now! See it now!
Let the rainbow remind you
That together we will always shine
Let the rainbow remind you
That forever this will be our time

(Twilight Sparkle)
Let the rainbow remind you
That together we will always shine
