My Little Pony: Enthusiastic Encouragement

Previously, Twilight and Moondancer alongside Twilight's assistant Spike had gone around Ponyville and had managed to get Twilight five new friends in Ponyville. Upon arriving at the Gold Oaks Library to take a break, the trio discovered the lights were off and when they were turned on...

"SURPRISE!" A bunch of ponies said the moment the lights were on. One pony in particular, the Pink Pony that ran from the trio came up to them.

"So were you surprised, were you, were you?" The Pink Pony asked.

"Yes. We were. You managed to get a party of this magnitude ready while we were running around?" Moondancer asked.

"Yep! Don't you remember when I saw you, I went like..." The Pink Pony gasped. "Well that's because I never saw you before, and if I never saw you before, that must mean your new here, and if your new here that must mean you may not know a lot of folk here, but turns out the ones I really wanted you to become friends with you did so on your own which only makes me super duper happy." The Pink Pony explained.

"Right...So, let's get introduced. I'm Moondancer." Moondancer said.

"And I'm Twilight Sparkle." Twilight said.

"And I'm Pinkie Pie. Better get used to me, new friends, because I plan on becoming great friends with you two as the party progresses. What say you to that?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"That sounds like the perfect idea. Especially considering today was my actual birthday from before we left Ponyville." Moondancer said. Suddenly Pinkie Pie did a spit take with a water glass she got out of her mane.

"TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY?! OH MY GOODNESS THEN I NEED TO GET OUT A SECOND PARTY CANNON!" Pinkie Pie said before suddenly taking a cannon out of her mane.

"What the..." Twilight said.

"Trust me here Twilight..." Rainbow Dash said besides the two unicorns. "It's best if you don't question it." Rainbow Dash added before Pinkie Pie fired the cannon putting some birthday decorations up.

"Wow...what are you, some sort of party expert?" Moondancer asked. Pinkie Pie gasped.

"You were able to guess that I'm a party expert just from this alone?! You and I are going to be BEST friends!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed. Twilight rolled her eyes.

"You'll be great friends with me too though. You can't expect to be Moondancer's friend without being mine as well. We're kind of stuck like glue like that." Twilight said.

"Oh I know! I could tell the moment I saw you. And I think it must have gotten frustrating being confused for sisters all the time." Pinkie Pie said.

"I beg your parden?" Moondancer asked.

"Well I figured that wherever you came from you must have gotten confused as sisters all the time, and as a result, Moondancer here restyled her mane to look more like Twilight's mane just to spite all those people, and the only two ponies outside of me who were able to tell your not really sisters are Rainbow Dash and Rarity." Pinkie Pie said.

"That's...right...how did you know?" Moondancer asked.

"Just a hunch." Pinkie Pie said.

"That...raises so many questions. Still, you don't seem like a bad pony by any means. I'm sure we'll be great friends, Pinkie Pie." Twilight said.

"Same to you, Twilight. You can just call me Pinkie by the way. Everyone else does." Pinkie Pie said. "Now, let's enjoy this party!" She added.

"You know what? I think we will." Twilight said. "And I promise, nothing is going to stop us from enjoying ourselves tonight." Twilight said.

"You said it." Moondancer said. The trio began to join the party but Twilight looked up to the sky briefly.

"...Absolutely nothing..." Twilight said and joined the party. She was spotted by Rainbow Dash looking up.

"...Wonder what's she's looking at the night sky for? It's probably nothing." Rainbow Dash said.

Later, the everyone was gathering in Town Hall.

"Hey Twilight..." Moondancer spoke up. "You've been worrying about something this whole time, haven't you?" She asked.

"Yes Moondancer. But it's not something that can wait until after the summer sun celebration. Getting you to enjoy the summer sun celebration for once in your life...that was the gift I wanted to give you. And what I've been worried is probably nothing anyways. I know you usually worry about the things I worry about, but just this one time...forget about what I'm worried about, and just enjoy your gift from me." Twilight said.

"I'm glad you are putting it at the back of your mind so I can enjoy my special day. I'll never forget this birthday, ever. Because I got to spend it with you, Twilight Sparkle." Moondancer said.

"Moondancer..." Twilight said.

"Shh!" Pinkie Pie showed up next to them. "It's starting!" Pinkie Pie said. But suddenly Celestia turned up missing and then...well an evil alicorn showed up. Twilight gasped.

"No...please no..." Twilight said. "Not Nightmare Moon..." She added.
