1. Sunset meets Queen Unity Unicorn

Author's Note

This begins with Sunset Shimmer meeting one the queens of Royal Isle.

1. Sunset meets Queen Unity Unicorn

Sunset Shimmer walked down the street with tears in her eyes. She is no doubt thinking about what happened during that school year.

Drat that Harshwhinny! Sunset thought. Why did she had to bring up my past like that.

As she was passing Canterlot State Park, she felt some kind of magic coming from the park. Sunset looks around, and doesn't see anything out of the ordinary. But, near the fountain, she saw a table with a white shining tablecloth. And, two elegant chairs. As the former baddie examined the setting, the voice of a charming woman greeted her. "Sunset Shimmer. We meet at last."

Sunset turned, and saw the source of the voice. It was a white skinned woman with sea foam green hair. She was wearing a magenta top, a flowery long skirt, golden shoes, and a golden chest place over her top. Her noticeable features are a pair of horse type ears and a horn on her forehead.

"I don't believe it." Sunset gasped as she recognized the woman. "Queen Unity Unicorn. One of the three queens of Royal Isle."

"Sounds like you learned of my reputation." Unity said. "Sit with me?"

The former brute sat with the royal Enchantimal.

"I heard that you had a pretty rough school year." Unity said.

"I sure did." Sunset sadly replied. "This person named Miss Harshwhinny kept reminding me of low moments of my life."

This got Queen Unity intrigued. "One of those moments is labeled the Fall Formal Nightmare. You were a brutal bully back then."

"I sure was. But, during my darkest moment, a friend of mine helped me escape the darkness. And, started me on the path to redemption."

"This friend of yours is no doubt Princess Twilight Sparkle from Equestria."

Sunset was shocked to hear this. "You know of the magical world of Equestria?"

"Yes, I do." Unity replied. "Twilight faced a lot of obstacles. Including Nightmare Moon, Discord, Chrysalis, Tirek, King Sombra, Cozy Glow, and the Pony of Shadows. But, her friends are there to help her. Just like your friends are here to help you."

This brought tears of joy to Sunset's eyes. Soon, she was approached by a small unicorn who wears a golden chest plate.

"You must be Queen Unity's bestie: Stepper." Sunset said. "Nice to meet you."

As Sunset cuddled Stepper, Queen Unity looked on with a smile on her face.

"Stepper must like you so much." Unity figured. "Probably because you used to be a unicorn in Equestria."

"You know about that?" Sunset said surprisingly.

"Well, Princess Twilight's human counterpart isn't the only one who does research."

Soon, Sunset had another thought. "My friends are there for me. Even through the Anon-A-Miss incident."

"That's when somebody set a phony account," Unity figured, "to expose dark secrets, and had everybody think you did it."

"Yep. But, the trio of Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo apologized for this misdeed. They promised not to cause such trouble again."

Later, Sunset is ready to head for home.

"Thank you, Queen Unity, your majesty." Sunset praised as she bows to her host.

"You're welcome, my friend." Unity replied. "You know, two other queens, Paradise Peacock and Daviana Deer, are visiting Canterlot City too. Maybe you and your friends might meet any of them."

Soon, Sunset made her way back to her apartment. I wonder if Princess Celestia would like to meet Queen Unity.

2. Ice Skating with Patterson Penguin

Author's Note

Rarity has a cool day at an ice skating rink. The same rink Twilight Sparkle learned how to skate.

2. Ice Skating with Patterson Penguin

Rarity walks down the street, feeling bad after what Miss Harshwhinny did to her and her friends. Soon, she saw Octavia Melody wave to her from the ice skating rink.

"Hello, Rarity." Octavia greeted.

"Octavia." Rarity replied happily. "This is a pleasant surprise. Where's Vinyl?"

"She's preparing herself for a party later tonight. You know how she is when she becomes DJ Pon-3."

The girls entered the rink to have some fun. As they put on their skates, Rarity thought about what happened last summer.

"I remember coming here last year with Twilight." Rarity said. "Hauna Husky made a great teacher."

"Hauna Husky?" Octavia gasped. "Doesn't she run a hot chocolate stand in Frozenwood?"

"Yes, she does. She and little friend, Whipped, make a great team."

Suddenly, Octavia sees something in the rink. "Speaking of Enchantimals and their besties, look!"

The girls see a young man with white skin and black hair. He wears a black jacket over a white shirt with a bow tie. He also has yellow pants and orange ice skates on. Skating with him is a cuddly looking penguin.

"Oh, my goodness." Rarity gasped. "Patterson Penguin."

"A very handsome looking person too." Octavia added. "Who's the little penguin with him?"

"That's his bestie: Tux."

Just as the girls entered the rink, Patterson and Tux skated over to meet them.

"Rarity and Octavia Melody." Patterson greeted. "A pleasure to meet you."

This got Rarity a little shocked. "You know about us?"

"Yes, I do." He then noticed Rarity tearing up. "Something wrong?"

The three friends and bestie sat at a table as Patterson hears the story.

"I had a rough year in school." Rarity explained. "A person named Miss Harshwhinny made a few stinks about my fashion sense."

"Even I heard of Harshwhinny." Patterson said. "That woman can make anybody look bad."

"That's for sure." Tux waddled over to Rarity and climbed on her lap. "Hello, Tux." She picked him up and cuddled him. "You are so adorable."

Octavia continued the explanation. "This is why we showed up here. Maybe, some ice skating can calm her down."

"Not a bad idea." Patterson praised. "Off to the rink."

Rarity, Octavia, and Patterson skated on the rink. Patterson did some fancy tricks that got everybody's attention. Tux squawked happily. Rarity skated elegantly with Octavia right behind her. Patterson caught up and picked up Rarity. Many patrons applauded.

I hope Preena doesn't get jealous. Octavia thought.

They went back to their table to enjoy some hot chocolate and each other's company.

"How are things with Preena?" Rarity asked.

"Not bad, actually." Patterson replied. "She told me that last year, your friend, Sunset Shimmer, helped her and Jayla with an ice cream delivery."

"Sunset does know her way around town. She made a pretty good guide."

"That's true. I'd like to meet Sunset someday."

Rarity, Octavia, Patterson, and Tux continue to enjoy the day.

4. Rise and shine with Falon Phoenix

Author's Note

Waking up, Applejack has a meeting with royalty.

4. Rise and shine with Falon Phoenix

The sun rises to welcome another day in Sweet Apple Acres. In her room. Applejack's alarm clock goes off. She turns it off, and yawns. She then saw that her pillow case looks a little stained.

Did I cry in my sleep again? Applejack thought, getting nervous. Harshwinny really got me good this time.

She gets out of bed, and looks out the window. Applejack usually likes the view of her home. But, because of Miss Harshwhinny, she just stares out the window as tears roll down her cheeks. Suddenly, she was startled by a knock at the door.

"Applejack!" Said the voice of Granny Smith. "Are you dressed?"

"I still have on my sleepwear, Granny." Applejack replied sadly.

"Don't cry, dearie. Please, don't cry."

"Sorry, Granny. I'm just in a bad mood."

Applejack went down on her knees and started to cry. She was so upset, she didn't hear her door opening, and somebody coming in. The saddened farm girl felt somebody place a hand on her shoulder. After wiping the tears from her eyes, she saw a charming girl with flowing yellow hair with some red in the middle. She wore a glittery flowery designed dress and pink shoes.
Her best feature is a pair of dark pink wings.

"Oh my goodness." Applejack quivered. "Fa-Fal-Falon Phoenix. You're one of them royal Enchantimals."

"At your service." Falon said.

Applejack got shocked. "Huh?"

Falon helped Applejack to her feet.

"I heard that you had a bit of trouble at school." Falon said. "What's wrong?"

"Some vicious lady named Miss Harshwhinny gave me a lot of lip." Applejack replied. "She told me that my work ethics are not to be believed. That struck me so hard."

"Everyone at Everwilde, even on Royal Isle, heard of Harshwhinny. That woman is a real disbelieving hothead."

"That's for sure. Lately, I've been crying myself to sleep."

Falon comforts the saddened farm girl. "You shouldn't take that woman seriously. I think you do well around here."

Applejack was surprised to hear her visitor say that. "Really?"

"No lie. Don't forget, Gillian Giraffe and Haydie Horse helped you out last summer."

Remembering last summer, Applejack started to feel better. "Thanks for the pep talk, Falon. I needed that."

"You're welcome, Applejack." Falon replied as she gives her a hug. "By the way, don't you usually wear a blue onesie during bedtime?"

"Since it's summer," Applejack explained, "it's too warm for my usual onesie. This white nightshirt is lighter and cooler for me to wear to bed."

Apple Bloom comes into the room with a yellow bird on her shoulder. "Hey, sis. This little bird flew into my room and perched on my shoulder. Any idea where it came from?"

Applejack looked at the bird, and smiled. "Howdy, Sunrise. Keeping my sister company, I see."

"Sunrise?"

"He's my bestie, Apple Bloom." Falon informed. "Even royal Enchantimals have besties. Especially the three queens of Royal Isle."

Later, Applejack and her sister went into the barn to relax after working in the fields. They were drinking some water when Granny Smith walked in.

"Feeling better, Applejack?" Granny Smith asked.

"I sure do." AJ replied.

"I guess time with Falon Phoenix and Sunrise helped you out."

"To quote Big Mac, 'Eeyup'."

Apple Bloom agrees. The family feels relieved knowing Applejack is recovering nicely.

5. A swinging time with Mika Monkey

Author's Note

Who will be there to cheer up Pinkie Pie? Mika Monkey will give it a try.

5. A swinging time with Mika Monkey

Pinkie Pie walks to the lake near Sweet Apple Acres. Wearing a backpack, she thinks about what went down at her own home.

Flashback

Pinkie sits on her bed with tears in her eyes. She's been brought down by Harshwinny so bad.

"Pinkie!" Igneous Rock Pie called out. "May I have a word with you?"

Pinkie came downstairs to speak with her father. "What did I do wrong, dad?"

"You didn't do anything wrong, my dear. I have some good news."

The party girl wiped the tears from her eyes. "Huh?"

"I received a call from Granny Smith at Sweet Apple Acres." Igneous explained. "She heard of the situation at your school. She and I felt that a swim at the lake near her home might help you relax."

"Is Applejack going to be there?"

"No. She, Big Macintosh, and Apple Bloom are spending time at a farmer's festival in town. But, I put out a call to somebody so you can have company. Trust me, dear. You'll love this companion."

End of Flashback

After finding a place to change into her swimsuit, Pinkie looks at the lake.

Maybe dad is right. Pinkie thought. A cool swim is just what I need on a day like this. But, where's this companion he's talking about?"

Suddenly, Pinkie heard something from the trees near the lake area. She was spotted by a pink sinned girl with light purple hair. She wore a sleeveless yellow dress with coconut designs. Her noticeable features are two monkey type ears and long brown tail.

"Hello, Pinkie Pie." The girl greeted as she jumped down to meet her.

"EEEEEEEEE!" Pinkie happily squealed. "Mika Monkey!"

The two girls hugged each other. Then, a thought came to Pinkie. "Did my dad call you to meet me?"

"He did." Mika replied. "He said something about the vicious Miss Harshwhinny."

"You know Harshwhinny?"

"Everybody at Everwilde knows her. What did she do to you?"

Pinkie gave a sad explanation. "Miss Harshwhinny cracked down on me and my friends. She said that my party planning is not admired. For someone like me, that's a horrifying insult."

Mika felt sad for Pinkie, and comforted her. "That woman is just blowing hot air. And, the best way to deal with hot air is to cool off. That's why we're here."

Minutes later, Pinkie was at a rope swing waiting for Mika. The visitor from Junglewood stepped out wearing a magenta long sleeved swimsuit.

"Nice looking swimsuit." Pinkie praised. "I heard that kind is getting popular."

"I know." Mika replied. "It almost looks like a leotard girls wear in gymnastics."

A brown monkey came along, and climbed onto Pinkie's shoulder.

"Hi, Swing." Pinkie greeted. "I wondered when you'd show up."

Mika made an announcement. "Okay, party girl! Let's see what you got!"

After Swing got off Pinkie's shoulder, Pinkie grabbed the rope, and used it to swing across the lake. She then lets do, and splashed in the water.

"Now, that's impressive." Mika said. "Time for us to make a splash too."

As Pinkie started to swim, she spotted Mika and Swing in the trees. They were swinging from tree to tree. Just then, they dived into the water. They splashed near Pinkie. Needless to say, the party girl was pleasantly surprised.

"You guys are a lot of fun." Pinkie cheered. "My friends would like you."

Later, the two friends sat on a blanket Pinkie brought along, looking at the lake.

"This is the kind of scenery that my friends would love." Mika praised.

"I'm sure they would." Pinkie replied. "Applejack would be proud to be your guide."

"From what I heard, so would Fluttershy."

Pinkie, Mika, and Swing continue to enjoy their day.

Twilight learns a new activity. Courtesy of Sarely Swan.

6. Ballet with Sarely Swan

In her room, Twilight Sparkle laid down on her bed. She was thinking of what Harshwhinny did to her. This made her very upset.

"Twilight!" Her mother, Twilight Velvet, called. "Somebody here to see you."

Caught off guard, Twilight cautiously walks out of her room. "Coming, mom."

Twilight's puppy dog, Spike, walks with her. When Twilight came to the living room, she sees her mother talking to an elegant young lady. She has white skin, deep purple hair in a bun, she wore a glittery outfit with a short feathery cap. Twilight notices that the visitor has a yellow nose with some black on top. This helped her recognize the visitor.

"Wow!" Twilight gasped. "Sarely Swan."

Sarely stood up and approached Twilight. "Hello. Twilight Sparkle. A pleasure to meet you."

"Miss Swan came over at my request." Twilight Velvet explained. "She is willing to help cheer you up."

"She is?" Twiloght wondered.

"That's right. She has a way to brighten your mood."

Later, Twilight dressed up in a blue leotard. She straps on a pair of basic ballet shoes as Sarely walks in.

"Aren't you glad that the teacher of this ballet school is letting us come here?" Sarely asked.

"I guess so." Twilight replied. "But, are you sure ballet will help calm me down?"

"I'm sure of it. From what I heard, you are a fast learner. You picked up on ice skating thanks to Hauna Husky."

"I guess so."

A swan came along, and nuzzled on Twilight. The intellect was happy to see the swan. "HI, Pointe. Good to meet you."

Sarely escorted Twilight to some bars. "Now then, we'll start with some basic steps. Just follow me."

Holding on to a bar, Sarely displayed some knee bends, and smooth movements with her free arm. Twilight carefully followed her teacher's example. Suddenly, Twilight's eyes opened wide, and she fell to her knees.

"Twilight!" Sarely gasped. "Are you okay?"

Sarely and Pointe rushed over to check on Twilight. The brainy girl started to tear up.

"I'm sorry, Sarely." Twilight sobbed. "My mind went back to what Miss Harshwhinny did to me."

"Harshwhinny?! What did she do?"

"That vicious woman reminded me of what Abacus Cinch did. Forcing me to unleash some magic that made me a vicious creature named Midnight Sparkle."

As Twilight keeps crying, Sarely comforts her. "That moment is in the past. Don't let Harshwhinny force you to let it rule your life."

Wiping the tears from her eyes, Twilight starts to calm down. "Maybe you're right. I guess Miss Harshwhinny is just a pest." Twilight then stands up. "Let's get back to work."

Following Sarely's lead, Twilight starts to improve on her dancing. Twilight does a forward leap. She lands and places her hands in front of her in a prayer pose.

"Bravo, Twilight!" Sarely cheered as she applauded her performance. "You do learn fast."

Twilight gave her teacher a loving hug. Spike and Pointe watched with admiration. Little do they know is that outside of the school, Abacus Cinch watches in secret.

"I never knew my former student was so graceful." Abacus thought. "I admit, Miss Swan makes a fine teacher. Impressive for a royal Enchantimal."

7. Water skiing with Bevy Bunny

Rainbow Dash tries her hand on a new sport, thanks to Bevi Bunny.

7. Water skiing with Bevy Bunny

Sitting on a bench, Rainbow Dash feels very upset about what Miss Harshwhinny did to her.

"I hate that Harshwhinny!" Rainbow sobbed to herself. "She brings out the worst in some people."

Rainbow sat there, crying her eyes out. She feels that not even Spitfire, Soarin Skies, or Scootaloo can cheer her up. Just then, Rainbow sees someone coming. It was a girl with white skin and curly blond hair. She wore a blue top, pink skirt, and blue boots. Her most noticeable features are two bunny ears and whiskers on her face.

"Hello, Rainbow Dash." The girl greeted.

"I think I've heard of you." Rainbow figured. "You’re Bevy Bunny from Snowy Valley."

"In person!"

Bevy sat down next to Rainbow, hoping to cheer her up.

"I saw you crying so badly." Bevy said. "What's the matter?"

"I had a bad encounter with Miss Harshwhinny." Rainbow explained. "I heard that even you Enchantimals heard of her."

"We sure have."

"Anyway, she forced me to remember how I was often embarrassed by some old rivals from the city of Cloudsdale."

"Ooo. That probably didn't go so good."

"It sure didn't."

Rainbow suddenly had a bunny hop on her lap. Bevy felt good about it. "Looks like my bestie wants to say 'Hi'."

The spectrum haired athletic girl looked at the bunny. "So, you're Jump. Right?" The bunny nodded happily. "Fluttershy would love to meet you."

Soon, Bevy Bunny has an idea. "I know how to perk you up. How about a little water skiing?"

"Water skiing?" Rainbow gasped. "I've seen people try it a couple of times. Do you think I can do good?"

"You won't know until you try. Let's head for the lake. I even have a wetsuit you can wear."

The two girls some made their way to a lake near Canterlot State Park. Later, wearing a full length crimson wetsuit, Rainbow Dash was in the water wearing a pair of water skis. Holding onto a rope connected to a speedboat, she looks ahead and sees Bevi and Jump in the driver's seat.

"Are you ready, RD?" Bevy asked.

"I think so." Dash replied.

"Then, hang on!"

Bevy starts up the boat. It moves along the water, pulling Rainbow Dash behind. She focused on staying afloat. Soon, she was speeding along the water.

"Wow!" Rainbow cheered. "This is awesome!"

"If you think that's cool," Bevi informed, "look what's coming up."

Rainbow sees that they were heading for a ramp in the water. Bevi guided her to the ramp. She rode up the ramp, and flew through the air. After a few twists, she landed in the water gracefully without any falls. Later, the two girls and bunny rested on shore.

"That was awesome." Rainbow cheered. "If only Spitfire can see me now."

"I'm impressed that you picked up on this so quickly." Bevi replied.

"I've seen many water skiing videos to get some basic ideas on how to approach it safely. Twilight Sparkle isn't the only one who can pick up on things quickly."

The two girls high fived each other as Jump watches happily.

8. Fun in the water with Maura Mermaid

Author's Note

Now, it's time for Fluttershy to meet a royal Enchantimal.

8. Fun in the water with Maura Mermaid

Fluttershy heads to Sweet Apple Acres to see Applejack. The honorable farm girl tells her of meeting a royal Enchantimal.

"You met Falon Phoenix?" Fluttershy gasped.

"I sure did." Applejack replied. "She and her little buddy, Sunrise, perked me up. When Pinkie came by for a swim, she met Mika Monkey and her buddy, Swing. Those guys had a lot of fun."

"I didn't meet a royal. But, I was happy meeting Esmeralda Elephant and her trio of cuddly besties."

Just then, Granny Smith came in with some news. "I'm glad you're here, Fluttershy. I heard one of them Royal Enchantimals is at the lake near here."

This news made Fluttershy's widened. Later, dressed in her usual wetsuit, Fluttershy was looking at the lake.

"Good thing I changed before coming here." Fluttershy thought out loud. "It is kind out warm out here."

Fluttershy enters the water, slowly but surely. Feeling a little relief, she starts swimming. The nature lover enjoys her time in the lake. Then, a young female voice calls to her. "Hi there, Fluttershy."

She turns, and sees someone approaching her. It was a light pink skinned girl with long red hair. She wore a crimson shortie wetsuit, and is swimming happily.

"Nice day for a swim." The girl said. "Isn't it?"

Fluttershy soon realized who's talking to her. "Oh my! Maura Mermaid!"

"That's me."

The two girls got out of the water and sat on the dock.

"You came here to do some swimming too?" Fluttershy asked.

"Yes, I did." Maura replied. "But, I was called by your farmer friend, Applejack. She told me that you were here."

"I heard of those Royal Enchantimals. But, I never thought I would meet one."

"Neither did Applejack. Believe it or not, I heard that Sunset Shimmer met one of Royal Isle's three queens."

This shocked Fluttershy a lot. "No joke?"

Maura giggled a lot. "No joke."

A floating fish came along to be with the girls. Fluttershy was very happy to see the fish.

"Hello, Glide." Fluttershy said happily. "You look beautiful."

The fish, Glide, blushed. Maura then stood up on the dock. "Ready for some more fun, Fluttershy?"

The nature lover stood next to the visitor. "You bet, Maura."

With Glide behind them, Fluttershy and Maura jumped off the dock and into the water, continuing their day at the lake. Later, Fluttershy and Maura enjoyed some sandwiches on the dock.

"Hazelnut spread and raspberry jelly is a great combination." Maura praised.

"Thanks, Maura." Fluttershy said. "Applejack got me the jelly from a farmers market."

Maura took a sip from a small jug of milk. "That's why it tastes good. I heard fresh food does well with some people."

The girls continue to enjoy the day, and each other.

9. Athletics with Ofelia Ostrich

Author's Note

The Wonderbolts get a visit from Ofelia Ostrich and her three beasties.

9. Athletics with Ofelia Ostrich

At a soccer field, Rainbow Dash and her fellow Wonderbolts practice their moves for a match against Griffonstone High next week. Spitfire is pleased with the results.

"Good work, team." Spitfire praised after the team gathered. "You all are showing great strength. That includes you, Rainbow Dash."

Rainbow gasped hearing her name. "Me?"

"That's right. Despite what Miss Harshwhinny tried to do to you, you are still at the top of your game."

"Well, I was cheered up by Bevi Bunny and her partner: Jump."

Sky Stinger was shocked hearing that name. "I can't believe that an Enchantimal helps someone like you out. Then again, I heard that Lorna Lamb helped you get ready for a game last summer."

"Speaking of Enchantimals," Vapor Trail interrupted, "look!"

The team saw a young girl coming to the team. She has light pink skinned, brown hair with punk streaks in it, and a feathery design on her forehead. She wore a black short sleeve shirt, pink gym shorts, and blue sneakers. Everybody is surprised at the sight of this visitor.

"Hey!" Rainbow Dash called out. "Ofelia Ostrich! This is a surprise."

"Greetings, Wonderbolts!" Ofelia called out.

Spitfire approached the visiting Enchantimal. "What brings you here from the Sunny Savanna, Ofelia?"

"I saw you guys practicing your moves," Ofelia explained, "and I'm very impressed."

"You were fascinated with what we do?" Soarin Skies asked.

"That's right. I think you guys are ready for Griffonstone next week."

This gives Spitfire an idea. "How about showing us some of your skills?"

This shocked Ofelia. "Me?"

"Why not? Maybe you might help us be better prepared."

During the practice, Misty Fly guarded the goal while Fleetfoot and Ofelia looked at the goal, thinking of a plan. They took off. Fleetfoot rushed to the goal. Misty Fly was ready for anything. Or, is she? Fleetfoot suddenly kicked the ball to the back. And, Ofelia kicked it in the goal. Misty thought she was defending against Fleetfoot. Not Ofelia.

"Clever move." Misty said as she stood up. "Pretty good strategy to use for our game."

"Thanks, Misty Fly." Ofelia replied as she shook her hand.

As the other Wonderbolts watched from the side, a trio of small ostriches came along and sat with Spitfire. The team captain was surprised by these three birds. Rainbow Dash giggled a little.

"Looks like Rapid, Flapper, and Feathers took a liking to you, Spitfire." Dash said happily.

Spitfire looked at the ostriches, and realized something. "These little birds must be Ofelia's besties."

"That's right." Ofelia replied as she returns to the team. "Like your faithful teammate said, they took a liking to you."

"I guess I do have a soft side after all."

Later that night, Rainbow changed into her pajamas and got ready for bedtime.

Thanks to Ofelia Ostrich, we have a great strategy for our game. Rainbow Dash thought. Look out, Griffonstone High!

10. Ridding a carriage with Peola Pony

Sunset Shimmer looked at herself in the mirror at her apartment. She wore an orange jacket over a yellow ruffled shirt. She also has on a long red skirt that stops above the ankles, and red platform shoes.

"I should thank Rarity for this outfit." Sunset said to herself. "I hope those lessons of elegance Fanci Flamingo taught me last year pay off."

Sunset was invited to Spoiled Rich's mansion for an elegant party. And, she wants to make a good impression. The former bad girl stands outside her apartment.

"When Rarity called, she said somebody is picking me up." Sunset wondered. "But, who?"

Suddenly, she heard the sound of a horse and buggy approaching. This caughter by surprise. Sunset thought that a limousine would pick her up. Soon, a fairy tale type coach approached Sunset's home. The driver is a
golden skinned girl with flowing blond hair and wearing a glittery outfit. It consists of a silver top and flowery skirt. This girl has white down the middle of her face and pony ears sticking out of her hair.

"Sunset Shimmer," The girl announced, "I'm here to pick you up."

Sunset's eyes widened when see saw this person. "Wow! Peola Pony!"

"At your service."

Approaching the carriage, Sunset gave a polite curtsey to Peola.

"Wonderful show of respect." Peola praised. "Very impressive."

"Thank you." Sunset replied. "So, you're here to take me to the Rich mansion?"

"That's right. Your fashionista friend, Rarity, asked me and my bestie to being you there in style. Besides, we're attending the festivities ourselves."

"I guess you royal Enchantimals get a lot of respect from the elegant crowd."

"You might say that."

Sunset approached a marigold pony with a blond mane and tail. She couldn't help but smile and pet the pony. "Hi, Petite. Good to meet you."

Petite nuzzles Sunset. This makes Peola happy. As soon as Sunset boards the coach, Peola gave the signal to Petite to go forward. Sunset was very impressed with this ride.

"Interesting experience. Isn't it." Peola asked.

"It sure is." Sunset replied. "I feel like Cinderella going to the ball."

At the Rich mansion, Filthy and Spoiled Rich welcomed guests. A big surprise is Rainbow Dash. She wore a magenta jacket over a white buttoned shirt. She also wore a long skirt and black platform shoes.

"I'm impressed with you, Miss Dash." Filthy Rich said. "You don't usually wear a skirt."

"I can make exceptions." Rainbow replied. "This long skirt matches my hair."

Suddenly, everybody saw a coach rolling in. When they saw Sunset riding the coach, it was another shock.

"Sunset riding a carriage?" Rainbow Dash gasped. "That's new."

Wearing a teal gown, Rarity approached her speedy friend. "I arranged for Peola Pony and Petite to bring her here, darling."

Sunset went to the front door where Filthy Rich greeted her. "Glad you can make it, Miss Shimmer."

"Thank you, sir." Sunset replied politely.

Spoiled Rich talks to Peola. "You can park your carriage on the side of the mansion, Miss Pony. Then, you and Petite can join us."

"Will do." Peola replied.

From inside the house, Sunset watches Peola park her carriage.
Patter Peacock said that these Royal Enchantimals might remind me of creatures from Equestria. Sunset thought. She's right.

11. Time to sparkle with Deanna Dragon

Author's Note

Twilight and Spike meet up with a Royal that the Princess of Friendship would love to meet.

11. Time to sparkle with Deanna Dragon

It's the 4th of July. Twilight Sparkle looks at herself in the mirror. She has on a blue jacket over a white shirt and a black tie. Twilight also has on a red skirt and black platform shoes. Her jacket is decorated with white stars and her skirt has horizontal white stripes.

"Not bad, Twilight." Her puppy dog, Spike, commented.

"Thanks, Spike." Twilight replied. "I'm glad we're invited to Canterlot State Park for their Fourth of July celebration."

"So am I. I heard that Peeki Parrot and Sheeny will be there."

"Oh yeah! Rarity told me about that Enchantimal."

As Twilight and Spike head for the park, a female voice called to them. "Hi there, Twilight. Hi, Spike."

They soon saw someone coming to them. It was a girl with pink skin and light teal hair. She wore a turquoise top and a purple skirt. When Twilight saw that she has dragon horns, wings, ears, and tail, she realized who it is.

"Spike," Twilight gasped, "it's Deanna Dragon!"

"Deanna Dragon?" Spike replied. "One of the Royal Enchantimals?"

Twilight nodded as Deanna approached the flabbergasted intellect.

"I'll bet you never saw anyone like me before." Deanna said.

"Well," Twilight said nervously, "I met many Enchantimals last summer. Recently, I met another Royal."

"I heard. You met Sarely Swan who helped you learn ballet."

Twilight was shocked to hear that. "You know about?"

"I sure did. We Royals often keep in touch with each other."

Suddenly, they heard Spike yelp. Twilight saw that he was covered with sparkles. They made in float up. Twilight grabbed him as Deanna took out a spray bottle and sprayed the sparkles off of Spike. Thus, the effects wore off.

"Sorry, Spike." Deanna said sadly. "My besties are still not glitter trained yet."

Twilight looked down on the ground, and saw a trio of small dragons, each a different color. She couldn't help but smile at them.

"Aw." Twilight cooed. "Roast, Whisk, and Steam look so cute."

"Roast, Whisk, and Steam?" Spike said. "Pretty appropriate names for young dragons."

Twilight then had a thought. "Are you attending the Fourth of July celebration?"

"Yes, I am." Deanna replied. "Fireworks always sparkle the sky at night."

"I'll bet all of my friends will be surprised to see you and your little friends."

"Especially Sunset Shimmer. I heard that she met one of the queens of Royal Isle."

Twilight's eyes widened hearing that. Later that night, the celebration at the park is going well. All of the guests are having fun.

"You met Queen Unity Unicorn?" Twilight asked Sunset.

"You bet." Sunset replied. "She helped me get over my problems big time."

They enjoy themselves as they see socialite Hoity Toity interacting with the Royal Enchantimal.

"I do hope your besties don't make much of a mess, Miss Dragon." Hoity Toity advised.

"Not to worry, sir." Deanna replied. "I gave each of them cups so they'll have something to spit into."

Just then, the fireworks went off. The sky displayed an assortment of beautiful colors and designs. The people watch with admiration.

"This might give me some inspiration for new clothes to make." Rarity squealed.

"I'm sure it does." Applejack replied.

Twilight walked over to Deanna. "I'll bet my princess counterpart would love to meet you and your besties."

Deanna smiled proudly. "I'm sure she would."

12. A special slumber party with Griselda Giraffe

Author's Note

The Cutie Mark Crusaders and friends have a slumber party. But, it was held outside, thanks to Griselda Giraffe.

12. A special slumber party with Griselda Giraffe

The sun sets in Canterlot City as Apple Bloom and Scootaloo went over Sweetie Belle's house for a slumber party. Apple Bloom has on a pair of ocean blue pajamas, Sweetie wore a short sleeve lavender nightgown, and Scootaloo has on a midnight blue sleep shirt with white long sleeves.

"Thanks for coming over, girls." Sweetie Belle said happily.

"Not a problem." Scootaloo replied. "I just can't believe Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon were invited too."

"Those two still feel bad for all the bad things they did to us, Scoots." Apple Bloom explained. "That's why Sweetie Belle invited them."

They soon heard a knock on the door as Diamond Tiara calls out. "Are you girls decent."

"We are, Diamond." Sweetie replied.

Diamond Tiara walks in wearing a long sleeve lime green nightgown with blue vertical stripes, and Silver Spoon has on a yellow short sleeve shirt and green sleep Capri pants.

"Rarity wants us all to meet in the backyard, Sweetie Belle." Diamond informed. "Somebody set something up out there."

"Might have something to do with our sleepover." Silver figured.

The five girls walked to the door leading to the backyard. Rarity was there waiting for them.

"Thanks for coming, girls." Rarity said.

"What's wrong, sis?" Sweetie wondered.

Rarity opened the door and pointed to a fascinating sight. "This!"

The group of girls saw two light teal canopies covering sleeping bags and pillows set on wooden floors.

"What the heck?" Scootaloo shouted.

"Does this mean we're sleeping outside?" Diamond asked.

"I guess so." Sweetie replied. "There's no rain forcasted for tonight or tomorrow. Who ever set this up must've planned everything."

"Indeed." Rarity added. "But, who set this up?"

Then, a female voice called to them. "I did!"

Out steps a yellow skinned girl with light brown hair, and wearing a white top, light blue skirt, and light blue shoes. Her noticeable features are light brown spots on her face, two horns on top of her head, and two pointed ears sticking out.

"I think I heard of you." Rarity said. "You're Griselda Giraffe and you're from the Sunny Savanna."

"That's right, Rarity." Griselda replied. "A pleasure to meet you."

"Wait a minute!" Scootaloo said. "Did you set this up?"

"You guessed correctly, Scootaloo."

This gave Silver Spoon a thought. "Of course! Griselda Giraffe specializes in slumber parties at her home."

"But, why set this up for us?" Sweetie Belle asked.

Griselda gave the girls an explanation. "I learned about this sleepover from hearing a conversation between Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. So, while you girls were hanging out in the house, I decided to put up these glamping grounds, knowing there is no rain forecasted for tonight nor tomorrow."

"Oh." Apple Bloom said. "You figured to make our slumber party very special."

"That's right, Apple Bloom."

Rarity then saw a little giraffe cuddling up to Sweetie Belle.

"Aw." Rarity cooed. "Looks like Antenna found a friend in my sister."

Diamond watched in admiration. "That little giraffe is cute."

"You met with a bestie at the lake near my home, if I'm not mistaken." Apple Bloom said.

"I sure did. It was Hedda Hippo's bestie, Lake. I even rode on his back."

Later that night, the five girls fell asleep in the canopies. With the sounds of crickets in the air, they slept peacefully. Rarity and Griselda watched in silence before giving each other a warm hug.

Author's Note

Pinkie is doing what ahe does best. And, a Royal Enchantimal is along to help.

13. Party planning with Brystal Bunny

Inside a grand ballroom, Pinkie Pie has a talk with an elegant couple.

"Thank you for coming, Miss Pinkie Pie." Jet Set said.

"Your message said it's important for me to come here." Pinkie replied. "What's the occasion?"

"We're celebrating our wedding anniversary tonight." Upper Crust answered. "And, we're inviting many people to attend the festivities."

"Does this include socialite Hoity Toity?"

"Good guess. But, we need a theme. Any ideas?"

Pinkie Pie started to sweat a little. But then, an Idea came to her. "How about a medieval theme."

"Medieval?" Jet Set gasped.

"Sure. Knights in shining armor, kings and queens, jousts for honor, dragons, stuff like that there."

Jet Set was impressed. "Not a bad idea. My dear Upper Crust and I always like those kinds of fantasy stories."

"Speaking of fantasy stories," Upper Crust interrupted, "here comes another of our guests."

In walks a pink skinned girl with brown hair. She wore a pink outfit and a golden crown. Pinkie noticed that this girl has long ears which surprised her.

"I think I've heard of you." Pinkie said. "You're Brystal Bunny from the Royal Isle."

"That is correct." Brystal replied as a trio of brown bunnies came along. One wore a pearl necklace, one wore a hat and bow tie, and the third is smaller than the others.

"Welcome, Brystal." Upper Crust greeted. "I see you brought your bestie trio with you."

Pinkie Pie fell in love with the bunnies. "Spring, Grace, and Scramble look so cute."

"Thank you, Miss Pinkie." Brystal replied.

"We'll leave you to preparing the ballroom." Jet Set announced. "The staff here will assist you anyway you wish."

The royal couple left Pinkie and Brystal to prepare for the party.

"Did I hear you suggested a medieval theme?" Brystal asked.

"I sure did." Pinkie replied. "Jet Set and Upper Crust thought it was a good idea."

"I'd like to help out. Being from a fantasy type area of Everwilde, I might have a few ideas of my own."

Pinkie was happy to hear that. "Thanks. I can use a partner."

Minutes later, Pinkie and Brystal looked over the plans for the celebration.

"This is going to work well." Pinkie cheered.

"I like your idea of two of the seats to be made like thrones." Brystal noted.

"Well, Jet Set and Upper Crust are sort of the king and queen of the night."

"Good point. I heard that you called your fashionista friend, Rarity, to help out as well."

"To make nice outfits for them."

Brystal's Bunny's besties went up to Pinkie to cuddle her.

"Looks like my besties approve of your ideas." Brystal praised.

This made Pinkie very happy. Later that night, the ballroom was decorated with royal shields and tapestries. The main table is made to look like the legendary Round Table of Camelot. Dressed as a court jester, Pinkie Pie blew a horn to get everybody's attention.

"Announcing their majesties," Pinkie called out, "King Jet Set and Queen Upper Crust!"

The elegant couple walked into the room. Jet Set wore a black tuxedo with a flowing red cape and a golden crown on his head. Upper Crust wore a crimson long sleeve gown, black shoes, a flowing pink cape, and her own crown. The crowd cheered for them

"Miss Pinkie Pie did an amazing job." Upper Crust said happily. "These outfits are lovely."

"Thank Miss Rarity for the outfits." Jet Set added. "These capes and crowns are a nice touch."

At another table, Brystal and her besties watched in amazement. This is turning out to be a good evening.

14. Getting pretty with Fabrina Fox

Author's Note

Applejack needs to get ready for a party. Fabrina Fox is happy to oblige.

14. Getting pretty with Fabrina Fox

At her house in Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack looked at the outfit Rarity brought over. It was a short sleeve Kelly green shirt, red skirt going below the knees, and a pair of golden yellow platform shoes.

"That's a nice dress you have there, sis." Apple Bloom praised.

"Thanks, Apple Bloom." Applejack replied. "As ya know, I got invited to a celebration at Camp Everfree."

"Is that where this comes in?"

"Yup. Even someone like me needs to dress up for an event like this. That's why Rarity made this dress for me."

Soon, Granny Smith called from downtown. "Applejack. Can you come down here for a minute?"

"Sure thing, Granny." Applejack said.

The honorable farm girl came down and saw Granny Smith with a tan skinned girl with red hair. She wore a white and dark pink top, flowery skirt, and teal shoes. This girl has fox ears and a reddish brown tail.

"Fabrina Fox!" Applejack gasped. "What're y'all doing here?"

"I was told about this celebration at Camp Everfree." Fabrina explained. "And, I was told that you have been invited."

"That I am. My friend, Rarity, sent over my outfit I'm going to wear."

"This is where I come in. I'm going to help you get ready."

Applejack started to get nervous. She remembered what happened when Rarity went overboard putting make up on her.

"Calm yourself, Applejack." Fabrina assured. "I heard what happened with your little make-up disaster. I'm not going to go overboard."

"You're not?" Applejack replied.

"No. Now, let's go to your bathroom. Your hair looks a little messy."

"Probably from working hard around here."

In the bathroom. Fabrina started washing Applejack hair. She used shampoo that's already in the bathroom, so there won't be any nasty side effects. As soon as Applejack’s hair was dried, she noticed that her hair is a little curly.

"Not bad." Applejack praised. "Ya did a pretty good job, Fabrina."

"Thank you." Fabrina replied as she suddenly looked at Applejack’s fingernails. "Your nails look a little ragged. Is that from working in this farm too?"

"I'm afraid so."

"Don't worry. I can fix that."

Minutes later, Fabrina started to file Applejack’s fingernails. Meanwhile, a small red fox wearing a golden headpiece was filing her toenails. But, the fox's fur was starting to tickle her foot.

"Easy there, Frisk." Applejack said, trying not to giggle. "I'm ticklish."

"Applejack," Fabrina chimed in, "please hold still."

"Sorry, Fabrina. The fur of your bestie rubbing on my foot tickles."

"That's what many of the Royals back on Royal Isle say. That's why our manipedis take a little while."

Later that night, the even at Camp Everfree was underway. Applejack wore the outfit Rarity made for her. She also wore a white version of her well known hat with dark brown under the rim. And, she has on candy apple red fingernail polish.

"Oh my goodness." Rarity gasped, looking at her farmer friend. "I knew Fabrina Fox and Frisk are good. But, I never expected this."

"I'm very impressed myself." Applejack replied. "Frisk filed my toenails so I can slip into these shoes you brought me."

As Applejack mingles with her friends, Rarity looks at her outfit and her hairstyle. Fabrina does an amazing job. I wonder if she can give me some tips.

15. Twilight Meets Queen Paradise Peacock

Author's Note

It's time for one of the other queens of Royal Isle to arrive.

15. Twilight Meets Queen Paradise Peacock

Twilight was walking towards the state park. Moondancer was with her.

"So, this is where Sunset Shimmer met Queen Unity Unicorn." Moondancer said.

"That's what I was told." Twilight replied. "I think we're all getting used to these Royal Enchantimals visiting us. They helped some of us get over what Miss Harshwhinny did."

"I heard of your meeting with Sarely Swan. She helped teach you some ballet."

"She sure did. It helped calm me down nicely."

Moondancer saw her phone go off. "I have to go. My mom needs me home for Mother/Daughter yoga time."

"Souns like fun." Twilight said. "See you later."

Moondancer bowed with her hands in prayer position. "Namaste."

As Moondancer walks off, Twilight heard another voice called to her. "Hello, Twilight Sparkle."

Twilight turned, and was surprised. At the gate of the park, stood a white skinned woman with long blue hair. She wore a fuchsia top, a skirt with flowers painted on it, and golden shoes. She also wore a crown, golden chest plate, and holding a scepter.

"I don't believe it!" Twilight gasped. "Queen Paradise Peacock. One of the three queens of Royal Isle."

"That is correct, my intellectual friend." Queen Paradise replied. "It's a pleasure to meet you."

The two ladies went inside the park to enjoy each other's company.

"So, Miss Sparkle." Paradise said. "How does it feel to be sitting next to Enchantimals royalty?"

"I'm shocked." Twilight replied. "This must be what Sunset Shimmer felt when she met Queen Unity."

"I heard of that moment. That was when Sunset was brought down by the vicious Miss Harshwhinny. Like you and the rest of those girls were."

"We sure were. Luckily, many Enchantimals came by to help cheer us up. Only, one thing."

This had Paradise raise an eyebrow. "Oh?"

Twilight gave a sad explanation. "So far, Rainbow Dash and Rarity are the only ones who haven't met one of the Royals. "

"Hmmm." Paradise replied. "That is a surprise. What about the others?"

"From what I heard, Fluttershy met Maura Mermaid, Applejack met Falon Phoenix and Fabrina Fox, besides Queen Unity, Sunset met Peola Pony, Pinkie Pie met Brystal Bunny, and, besides you, I met Sarely Swan and Deanna Dragon."

"Don't worry, then. I'm sure Rarity and Rainbow Dash will meet Royal Enchantimals soon."

Just then, a beautiful peacock walked over to Twilight. She was happy to see this bird. "Hi there, Rainbow. Nice to meet you."

This made Queen Paradise smile. Later that night, all seven girls met for a sleepover at Twilight's house.

"You met Queen Paradise Peacock and her bestie: Rainbow?" Sunset asked.

"I sure did." Twilight replied.

"I wish I was there." Rainbow Dash added. "Then, one Rainbow would meet another."

Everyone had a good chuckle as Rarity spoke. "I guess it won't be long before you and I meet any of the Royals, Dashie."

The athletic girl nodded. "That's true, Rares."

17. Flipping Out with Kamilla Kangaroo

Author's Note

It's time to bring one of my own OCs into this chapter featuring Kamilla Kangaroo.

17. Flipping Out with Kamilla Kangaroo

In her backyard, Pinkie Pie had some music playing on her tablet PC. Wearing a crimson long sleeve leotard, she danced around, and performed a few amazing front flips. After she finished a triple somersault, she was praised by Photo Finish, who was taking pictures.

"Well done, Miss Pinkie." Photo praised. "Those flips are exquisite."

"Thanks, Photo." Pinkie replied while taking a few sips of water. "With Magenta Whisp's birthday coming up, I need a bit of inspiration to prepare a good party."

"Being energetic yourself, this gymnastics thing comes a little natural for you."

"I guess you're right."

Suddenly, a young lady flipped over the fence. She had light tan skin, light brown hair in pigtails, and wore a flowery top, multi colored skirt, and pink shoes. Her noticeable features are two ears sticking up and a long tail.

"I like those moves, Pinkie Pie." The girl said happily. "I've been watching through a window in your house."

Pinkie Pie soon recognized the visitor. "Wowee! Kamilla Kangaroo!"

"Kamilla Kangaroo?" Photo gasped. "From the Sunny Savanna?"

"That's her, Photo."

Kamilla walked over to the shocked photographer. "So, you're Photo Finish. I heard about you from Cameo Crab when I visited Wishing Waters a few months ago."

"That was from last summer. I forgot about that day."

Soon, Kamilla walked over to the party girl. "So, what's this I hear about you getting inspiration for a birthday party?"

"That's right." Pinkie replied. "Magenta Whisp's birthday is coming. And recently, her mother got her into gymnastics."

"That's why you're doing a little gymnastics yourself. To get yourself prepared to plan this party."

"You bet."

Pinkie’s mother, Cloudy Quartz, comes into the backyard with three small
kangaroos by her side.

"Miss Kangaroo." Clouday said. " are these little joeys your besties?"

"Yes, they are." Kamilla replied. "Did they cause any trouble with their bouncing?"

"Not at all. Satchel, Joey, and Tote are well behaved. Marble was watching over them."

The three besties hopped over to Kamilla. Pinkie couldn't help but smile. Two days later, Magenta Whisp's birthday party was underway. Her backyard was decorated with gold, silver, and bronze medal props, rainbow streamers, and various mats lining the ground for gymnasts to use. Wearing her blue leotard, Magenta Whisp finished her floor routine. Everybody cheered. Even Comet Burst, her rival turned friend was impressed.

"Great routine, Magenta." Comet praised.

"Thanks." Magenta replied as she grabbed a bottle of water from a cooler. "Pinkie sure knows how to plan a party."

"I heard that she had some help from Kamilla Kangaroo and her bestie trio."

"Oh. Joey, Satchel, and Tote. They were so cute."

Looking from another table, Pinkie and Kamilla watched with happiness while Kamilla's besties hop with joy.

18. Royal Fashions with Ambrose Unicorn

Author's Note

To this point, Rarity has not met a Royal Enchantimal. Until now.

18. Royal Fashions with Ambrose Unicorn

Rarity was walking down the street, thinking about what Rainbow Dash experienced recently.

So, Dashie met Paolina Pegasus. Rarity thought. This means, I'm the only one who hasn't met a Royal Enchantimal yet. But, I have a feeling that'll change soon.

As she was passing the Canterlot Carousel, manager Sassy Saddles waved to her. "Hi, Rarity."

Rarity went over to say hello to her friend. "Hello, Sassy, darling. What's happening in your store recently?"

"Oh yes. Come on in."

Rarity comes into the store. And, sees something amazing. She saw some beautiful dresses that could come from a fairy tale.

"Oh my." Rarity gasped. "These are beautiful. I couldn't have designed better outfits."

"Thanks. The person who came over suggested this unique line." Sassy explained. "I think you should meet her."

Sassy waved for somebody to cone over. It was young lady who has off white skin, glittering pink and blue hair and a shiny outfit, along with golden shoes. Her noticeable features are her pony ears and a golden horn on her head.

"I don't believe it." Rarity gasped. "Ambrose Unicorn."

Ambrose was surprised to see Rarity arrive. "Rarity! I always wanted to meet you."

"Did I hear that you inspired this latest line?"

"I sure did. I was looking around the place when Sassy Saddles spotted me."

"Ambrose was telling me about her home in Royal Isle." Sassy explained. "To me. It sounds like something like a fantasy story."

"Makes sense." Rarity added. "Me and my friends met quite a few Royal Enchantimals. Some of them looked like fantasy type critters."

Soon, a cream colored unicorn with a deep pink Mane and tail trotted in. Rarity fell in love with it. "Aw. You must be her bestie. Glimmer. Right?"

The Unicorn nodded. Soon, Sassy rose up from her chair. "I just got an idea for a dress for you!"

Rarity wondered what Sassy is up to. Later, Rarity sees herself wearing a lime green top with dark green short sleeves, flowing blue skirt, and sky blue platform shoes.

"Oh my." Rarity gasped happily. "This is beautiful. It'll surely turn heads at any special event."

"And, this is an optional item." Sassy said as she presents a piece of red fabric.

Rarity sees that it's a cape. When she attached it to herself, she was amazed.

"WOW!" Rarity said. "I can't wait to show Sweetie Belle when I get home."

Later, Sunset Shimmer was shown a picture of Rarity wearing that outfit on her smartphone.

"To think, this came from meeting Ambrose Unicorn and Glimmer." Sunset said to herself. She giggled about a thought she had. "Princess Twilight at Equestria would be jealous of that look. Especially, with that cape Rarity is wearing."

19. Family Time with Alessandro Lion

Author's Note

Alessandro Lion comes over to Sweet Apple Acres. Mainly to help out Applejack.

19. Family Time with Alessandro Lion

Applejack is getting nervous over a family event at her home. Her cousin, Braeburn, is visiting from Appleloosa. The family is having a movie night with equipment he's bringing over. A Blu-Ray player, projector, and speakers. Trouble is, Applejack is getting over an argument she had on the phone with her cousin.

"Come on, sis." Apple Bloom pleaded. "Braeburn was probably trying to get his stuff ready for movie night."

"I was just advising him about how to handle that stuff." Applejack explained. "I even told him that I have a spare surge protector to loan him."

"But, he snapped. He thought you were criticizing him."

Applejack started to tear up. "Maybe I should stay indoors while you guys enjoy the movie. That way Braeburn won't have to look at me."

The farmer girl started to cry. This got Granny Smith worried. Later that night, the equipment is being set up as the family gets ready for movie night.

"I hope Applejack snaps out of it." Granny Smith said with concern. "She's going to miss a good movie."

Braeburn comes along and agrees with Granny. "I'm with you, Granny. I don't want her to be afraid of me all night."

"Granny!" Apple Bloom called. "Big Mac is going to talk to Applejack."

"At least somebody is going to help her." Granny replied.

"And, he brought a special guest."

In Applejack’s room, she laid down on her bed, still tearing up when she heard a knock on her door.

"Are you there, sis?" Big Mac asked.

"Yup." Applejack replied sadly. "And, I'll be here all night."

"Maybe this guest I brought will snap you out of it."

Big Mac walks in, followed by a young man with golden brown hair that looks like a lion's mane. He wore a regal red jacket over a golden shirt, blue pants, and glittering sneakers. Applejack notices the round ears on his head and a lion tail. She was surprised to see him.

"Alessandro Lion!" Applejack gasped. "Talk about royalty personified."

"Eeyup." Big Mac replied as the visitor adjusted his golden crown. "I figured for this kind of event, I'd invited Alessandro. I heard he always wanted to come here."

"Big Mac told me of this spat between you and Braeburn." Alessandro continued. "Sounds like you're still scared to come out."

"You got right." Applejack replied sadly.

Alessandro sits next to her to comfort her. "No need to be upset, Applejack. I heard your cousin was starting to get worried about you."

The honorable farm girl was surprised to hear that. "No joke?"

"No joke. You guys are family. He doesn't carry any grudge."

This made Applejack feel better. As Big Mac returns to the gathering, a mini lion comes in and crawls onto her lap.

"Howdy, Catch." Applejack said. "You look like someone my fashionable friend, Rarity would like to meet."

Later, the family watched the movie with Alessandro and his bestie joining them.

"I'm sorry I didn't take you seriously." Braeburn said. "You must've been scared of that argument we had."

"I was." Applejack replied. "I thought since you were coming over, you wouldn't want me to join ya."

"Well, thank goodness Alessandro Lion and Catch came over to help you get over it."

The two cousins hugged each other as everyone continued to watch the movie. Braeburn and Alessandro high fived each other, knowing that things worked out in the end.

21. Music Surprises with Effie Elephant

Author's Note

Effie Elephant pays Sunset Shimmer a call. Especially with a little elephant making the call with his trunk.

21. Music Surprises with Effie Elephant

Inside her apartment, Sunset Shimmer was playing her guitar, preparing for a Rainbooms concert. Since the visitors from Everwilde started showing up throughout the summer, she and her friends started to feel better.

"I thought this summer was going to be horrifying thanks to Miss Harshwhinny." Sunset said to herself. "But, me and my friends are feeling more relaxed thanks to our Enchantimal friends. Especially the Royal Enchantimals."

Suddenly, she heard a musical note outside her apartment. Curious, she puts down her guitar and steps outside. When she went outside, she looked around. But, nothing in sight.

"That's weird." Sunset said. "I thought I heard music out here. Must've been my imagination."

Then, the music was played again. She then saw an unusual sight. It looked like a small elephant playing music from his trunk.

"Hi there, little fella." Sunset greeted. "We're you playing that music?" The elephant nodded 'yes'. "That sounds beautiful. But, where did you come from?"

"I brought him here." Said the voice of a charming woman.

Out steps a gray skinned girl with indigo hair, and what looks like big floppy ears. She also has lines down her nose, as if it's an elephant's trunk.

"Hello, Sunset Shimmer." The girl greeted. "It's good to meet you."

"I think I heard of you." Sunset replied. "You're Effie Elephant from Junglewood. Am I right?"

"You guessed correctly."

Sunset looked at the elephant who was trumpeting earlier. "Then, you must be her bestie: Sway. Right?"

The little elephant trumpeted happily. Later, Sunset and company went to an animal sanctuary where Sway was given some food to munch on by friendly caretakers.

"I'm glad your nature loving friend, Fluttershy, suggested this place so Sway can feed." Effie said.

"Me too, Effie." Sunset replied. "So, you two just strolling down the street just to see me?"

"You guessed it. We figured you can use a break from royalty, if you know what I mean."

"The royal Enchantimals don't bother me. In fact, I was very honored to be greeted by Queen Unity Unicorn."

Effie was very intriguing to hear that. "You know, a cousin of mine visited Sweet Apple Acres last year."

"Huh?" Sunset gasped. "You're cousins are Ekaterina Elephant and Antic?"

"You got the message."

Soon, Sunset has an idea. "Canterlot State Park is having a social event tonight. How would you like to show off Sway's musical talent?"

"Interesting." Effie replied. "Tell me more."

Later that night, Sway used his trunk to play a pleasant tune for a crowd of people. When he was done, he received a round of applause. Even from Hoity Toity who stood next to Effie.

"Your little friend is quite talented, Miss Elephant." Hoity Toity praised.

"Thank you, sir." Effie replied.

"Perhaps Sway would like to perform with the Rainbooms one day."

From another area of the park, Sunset and Twilight heard the whole conversation.

"An elephant performing with us?" Twilight said. "That would be interesting."

Sunset happily nodded. "No doubt about it, Twi."

22.Hide and Seek with Gabriela Gazelle

Author's Note

Time for a hide and seek game. And, Gabriela Gazelle is ready to play.

22.Hide and Seek with Gabriela Gazelle

Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon were walking down the street, enjoying the fine summer day.

"It sure is gorgeous out here." Silver said proudly. "So, where are we going?"

"Sweet Apple Acres." Diamond replied. "Apple Bloom invited us over. Remember?"

"Oh. I forgot. Probably why you have on your own farm clothes."

Diamond has on a pink short sleeve shirt and blue denim overall shorts. As for Silver, she has on a lime green long sleeve shirt and forst green capris.

"I'm pretty glad that you have on clothes that are more casual than our usual style." Diamond praised.

"Thanks." Silver said. "If your dressing casually, I might as well do the same."

Soon, the two friends arrived at Sweet Apple Acres. When they arrived, they were greeted by Diamond`s mother: Spoiled Rich. "Diamond, my dear. I heard that you were coming over to visit."

"Mother!" Diamond gasped. "What are you doing here?"

"I was just thanking the Apple Family for their generous contribution to a celebration we had last week."

"Oh. Their homemade apple cider for our family reunion. At least those scheming Flim Flam Brothers didn't crash that party. Father saw to that."

"That's right. Anyway, Apple Bloom and the others are waiting for you two at the barn. Rainbow Dash is with them."

Yes made their way to the barn. There, they were greeted by Apple Bloom, who wore a red short sleeve shirt and blue bib overalls with the cuffs rolled up.

"Howdy, Diamond." Apple Bloom greeted.

"Hello, my barefoot friend." Diamond replied. "Where are Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo?"

The two friends came out. Sweetie Belle wore a Kelly green dress that went just below the knees. And, Scootaloo wore a lavender flannel shirt and blue jeans with suspenders.

"Hi, guys." Scootaloo greeted. "Dressed for the occasion?"

"I guess so." Silver replied. "I see you two went barefoot too."

"That's right." Sweetie Belle said. "Rainbow Dash set up a shoe rack near the back door."

They went to the door and saw the shoe rack Sweetie Belle talked about.

"Silver," Diamond said as she removed her sneakers, "we might as well follow that crowd."

Diamond placed her shoes in the rack. Silver did the same. The friends rejoined the other girls.

"This doesn't feel bad." Silver said. "In fact, it feels invigorating."

"You know what, Silver?" Diamond replied. "I think you’re right."

Rainbow Dash soon joined the other girls.

"Hi, girls." Dash greeted. "Glad to see all five of you together."

"So, what are we assembled here for?" Scootaloo wondered.

"I got a call that somebody wants to play a game of hide and seek with you guys."

Everybody was shocked to hear that. Apple Bloom spoke up. "Who wants to play that old game with us? Rumble? My cousin Babs? Zipporwhill?"

"None of the above." Said a female voice.

Out steps a light tan skinned girl with brown hair. She wore a red dress with flowers on the skirt. Her noticeable features are brown between her eyes, two ears sticking out, and two horns on her head. Rainbow Dash is impressed.

"So, you want to play with them, huh?" Rainbow asked.

"I sure do." The girl replied.

"I think we're in trouble." Scootaloo realized.

"Explain?" Diamond demanded.

"This girl is Gabriela Gazelle. She's a hide and seek expert from the Sunny Savanna."

Gabriela soon made an announcement. "Okay, girls. I'm going to close my eyes and count to ten. While that's going on, you five better hide."

The visitor turned around, covered her eyes, and started to count. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!" She then turned around and opened her eyes. "Ready or not, here I come!"

As Gabriela looks for the five girls, a small gazelle went over to Rainbow Dash.

"Hi, Spotter." Rainbow said to the gazelle. "Come to help your friend find the other girls?"

Spotter nodded. Gabriela looks around. She studies a barrel with apples in it. Getting an idea, she lifts up the lid, and spotted Apple Bloom.

"Aw." Apple Bloom moaned. "How did you find me?"

"What better place for an apple farming kid to hide than an apple barrel?" Gabriela answered.

"I reckon you're right."

That's one girl found. As Apple Bloom heads back to Rainbow Dash, Gabriela walks over to a tree in the orchard. Seeing something on the ground, she called up to it. "Enjoying the view, Scootaloo?"

Suddenly, Scootaloo popped her head out from the tree. "How did you figure me out?"

"The shadow knows."

Scootaloo soon sees her shadow on the ground. "I always know you're good."

Soon, Gabriela passes by a covered wagon near the barn. Smelling the air, she pokes her head in, and spots Diamond Tiara under a blanket.

"You need to use less perfume." Gabriela explained.

"Darn." Diamond said. "Some of my mom's perfume must've rubbed off on me when she hugged me goodbye."

Hiding behind some hay bales, Sweetie Belle was relaxing, knowing Gabriela wouldn't find her. Suddenly, her nose started twitching.

"Uh oh. I think I'm going to sneeze." Sweetie Belle said nervously. "Ah...ah...ah...AH CHOO!"

She felt a little relief from that sneeze. But then, Gabriela poked her head out. "Gesundheit."

Finally, Silver Spoon was in the hay loft. Looking around her hiding spot. "That Gabriela Gazelle won't find me here."

As Silver lounges, a shadow looms over her. She then realizes it was her pursuer.

"Can't find you, huh?" Gabriela said. "Well now, I wouldn't say that."

Later, the girls were in the backyard while Applejack was cooking some food. Diamond Tiara's mom talked to the visitor from Everwilde.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Gazelle." Spoiled Rich said as she turns to the bestie. "You too, Spotter."

Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon relaxed while waiting for the food to cook.

"Remind me not to play hide and seek with Gabriela Gazelle." Diamond said. "She's a true adversary."

Author's Note

Twilight and Flash joined two royal Enchantimals for a little picnic time.

23. Picnic time with Braylee and Brannon Bear

On a nice sunny day, Twilight Sparkle and Flash Sentry were just exiting the movie theater after seeing a classic movie Flash recommended.

"I have to hand it to you, Flash." Twilight said. "Transformers: The Movie was a great surprise. Very impressive for 1986."

"Glad you liked it, Twi." Flash replied. "I've been wanting to see this movie since I was a kid. The great voice talent behind some of these characters."

"Most of which are not with us now. Like Leonard Nimoy: The voice of Galvatron."

"Yeah, I know. I heard this was the last movie the legendary Orson Welles was involved in. He was the voice of Unicron."

Twilight's phone then went off. She saw that somebody left a message. It rear, Twilight Sparkle and Flash Sentry. Please come to Canterlot State Park to spend time with us. We appreciate it.

"What's up?" Flash wondered.

"Somebody wants up to meet in the park." Twilight answered. "Who it is, I don’t know."

"Maybe we should answer this call."

Not having anything else to do, Twilight obliged. Later, they arrived at the park wondering who they'll meet. Soon, they saw an interesting couple enjoying a picnic One is a girl with long blond hair and a white outfit. The paper is a boy with brown hair and wearing a white shirt, a golden vest with a red sash, and blue pants.

"Flash," Twilight said, "I think that's Braylee Bear and her friend, Bannon Bear."

"The noble couple from Royal Isle?" Flash gasped. "Wow."

Soon, Braylee saw Twilight and Flash. "Twilight Sparkle. You got my message."

"You sent me that message?" Twilight said with shock.

"Of course. We secretly saw you two leave the movie theater. And figured you like to join us."

Bannon soon approached Flash. "Nice to meet you, Flash Sentry. I heard many good things about you."

"Really." Flash replied. "I didn't know my reputation is known even on Royal Isle."

"You'd be surprised."

The four friends soon enjoyed each other's company while enjoying each other's company while having lunch.

"Thanks for letting us join you for lunch." Twilight said while munching on a sandwich. "White chocolate peanut butter and strawberry jelly is a nice combination."

"We're glad you're with us, Twilight." Braylee replied. "You and Flash are great company."

Flash enjoyed an apple he was given. "Do you guys have your besties with you?"

"Of course. You know we Enchantimals are never without our besties."

Soon, a white bear cub and light brown bear cubs came out.

"The white cub is Braylee's bestie: Honey," Bannon explained, "and the light brown cub is my bestie: Bowie."

"Pretty cute looking critters." Flash said while drinking from a milk jug.

They soon came to Twilight. And, they cuddled her.

"Aw." Twilight cooed. "They're adorable."

Flash soon got out his smartphone and took a picture of Twilight and the bear cubs. At her house, Twilight looked at the picture Flash sent her on her phone. "I hope Fluttershy won't be jealous of me."

Time for a decoration day with DIY expert, Zadie Zebra.

24. DIY with Zadie Zebra

On a beautiful day at Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack and her family finished cleaning up their barn for an up and coming celebration.

"Good work, everybody." Granny Smith praised. "Now we can get this ready for our party."

"What's the occasion?" Apple Bloom asked.

"The Wonderbolts won a rough soccer game." Applejack answered. "And, Rarity and Sweetie Belle are coming over to help us get this barn ready."

Just then, Rarity and Sweetie Belle went into the barn.

"Hello, Apple Family," Rarity greeted.

"Howdy, Rares." Applejack replied. "Are ya ready to help us get this place ready?"

"Indeed. And apparently, we're not alone."

The Apples were a little confused. Soon, a young white skin girl with black stripes on her face followed the elegant sisters. She has frizzy yellow hair with dark punk streaks. She has on an outfit with black and white stripe designs and dark pink shoes. She also has a white tail. Everybody was very surprised to see this girl.

"Hoo-wee!" Applejack said . "Zadie Zebra."

"The DIY expert from the Sunny Savanna?" Apple Bloom asked.

"You might call me that." Zadie replied.

Rarity and Sweetie Belle were surprised to hear that name.

"What brings you here, Zadie?" Rarity asked.

"I was just leaving Sugarcube Corner when I spotted you and Sweetie Belle." Zadie explained. "You guys talked about a celebration involving the Wonderbolts."

"Yes. The Wonderbolts had a hard earned victory today. That calls for a celebration. "

"Hopefully without Rainbow Dash going heavy on Applejack’s cider." Sweetie Belle added.

Everybody had a good laugh. Zadie soon looked around the barn. "Very impressive barn, Applejack."

"Thanks, Zadie." Applejack replied. "Even my horse, Penelope, don't mind a visit from Spitfire and her team. Right now, Fluttershy is watching over Penelope."

Soon, Zadie made an announcement. "Okay, gang! Let's get busy!"

The farm was soon being decorated. Banners with soccer balls printed on them were being hung. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle helped making the Apple Family's homemade cider.

"Pretty glad Sweetie Belle brought a change of clothes, knowing she's going to help Apple Bloom." Applejack said.

"I should thank you, Applejack. " Rarity said happily. "Those overall shorts look adorable on her."

"Glad ya like them, Rares."

Outside the barn, Zadie and Big Mac set up some soccer posts.

"Good idea, Big Macintosh." Zadie said happily. "I'm glad the athletic park lent us these goals for this event."

"Thank you kindly, ma'am." Big Mac replied proudly.

Pretty soon, a small zebra cane along and nuzzled Big Mac. He's was a little surprised. "Where did you come from?"

After rinsing their feet off from the cider making, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle looked that the small animal.

"Howdy, Ref." Apple Bloom said while petting the zebra. "I see y'all are keeping Big Mac busy."

Sweetie smiled while looking at Ref. "A pretty appropriate name for a zebra. Know what I mean?"

Everyone giggled, knowing that Sweetie Belle has a point. Later that night, the celebration went underway. Spitfire told Granny Smith stories about her team's various wins. Sky Stinger and Vapor Trail admired Penelope, with Fluttershy watching. Rainbow Dash and Soarin Skies practice some of their moves using the goals that were set up.

"Great way to vent off some steam from the game." Dash praised.

"You said it." Soarin praised. "Applejack and Rarity did a good job having this place ready for our victory celebration."

"They did have help from Zadie Zebra and Ref, you know."

Soarin then notices something. "I'm surprised you're not going after the cider this time."

"Have to be careful not to overdo it." Rainbow Dash explained. "Rarity and Spitfire can get concerned."

Watching from the barn door, Applejack, Rarity, and Zadie are happy with Rainbow's promise not to go crazy with the apple cider.

25. Hair Salon Day with Lacey Lion

Author's Note

Fluttershy went to a hair salon to get ready for a show. Lacey Lion is there to give her a new hairdo.

25. Hair Salon Day with Lacey Lion

Fluttershy and Tree Hugger walked down the street. The nature girl was a little nervous.

"I can't believe that I was invited to a Bridalway show in Manehattan." Fluttershy said.

"I can." Tree Hugger replied. "It was definitely nice of Rarity to ask you to join her for a night of culture."

"She sent me a good outfit for that event. It's a long sleeve forest green gown that goes just below the knees. And, a pair of brown platform shoes."

"The brown probably for the tree trunks. So, what's next to looking your best?"

"Rarity suggested that I get my hair done at the hair salon."

Soon, the two friends arrived at the hair salon. As Fluttershy wants for her turn, Tree Hugger sees a worker she never saw. It was a golden skinned girl with a brown hairdo with purple streaks. She wore a flowery dress. Her hair looks like the mane of a lion. She even has a lion's ears and tail.

"Is there a Lion King event going on?" Tree Hugger wondered.

Fluttershy looked at the girl, and soon recognized her. "Tree Hugger, that hair stylist is Lacey Lion."

"Lacey Lion? Like, from the Sunny Savanna?"

"That's her."

Lacey then went over to the two friends.

"Hello, Fluttershy." Lacey greeted. "I heard so much of you. Some of the other Enchantimals say that you understand animals."

"I never knew my reputation is getting known at Everwilde." Fluttershy replied while blushing.

Lacey then turned to Tree Hugger. "Are you here for a hair appointment too?"

"Nope." Tree Hugger replied. "Just here to support Flutters here."

A minute later, Lacey started washing Fluttershy's hair.

"I understand that you were invited to a show at Manehattan." Lacey said.

"Yes." Fluttershy replied. "My friend, Rarity, invited me to join her."

"The elegance of the Rainbooms. I heard how Leora Lion helped her with a hair emergency last summer."

After the washing, Leora got put her hair dryer and brush.

"Time to start styling." Lacey announced. She soon saw Fluttershy getting nervous. "And, to help calm you down,"

She gives a whistle, and a small lion comes along. It hops of Fluttershy's lap.

"Aw. Hello, Manesy." Fluttershy cooed. "Aren't you a cutie?"

Seeing Fluttershy relaxing, Lacey turned on her hair dryer, and got to work. Later, Rarity and Fluttershy headed to a theater in Manehattan. Fluttershy wore the gown she was given, and her hair was curly. Not as poofy as Pinkie Pie's usual hairdo.

"Your hair looks beautiful, Fluttershy." Rarity praised. "Lacey Lion did a good job."

"I know." Fluttershy replied. "Sandalwood said that I could rival fashion models with this hairdo."

"I assume that Lacey's bestie, Manesy, was sitting on your lap."

"You're right. Just like Leora Lion's bestie, Snazzy, sat on yours while she worked on your hair."

Rarity blushed, knowing Fluttershy has a point. "Touché."

26. Discussion with Queen Daviana Deer

Author's Note

Queen Daviana Deer arrives to talk to the girls about their summer.

26. Discussion with Queen Daviana Deer

On the week before school starts, the Rainbooms gather at Rarity's house for a slumber party.

"Some summer this has been." Fluttershy said happily. "I thought we're going to be miserable through the season."

"We all did." Rarity added. "But, our gloom was removed. Thanks to our new Enchantimal friends."

"And, that includes the Royals." Sunset said

Just then, somebody knocks at her bedroom door. Rarity answers. "What is it, Sweetie Belle?"

"It's not your little sister, Miss Rarity." Said the voice of a British speaking lady. "Are you and your friends decent?"

"We do have on our sleepwear. But nothing too revealing."

The door opens, and everybody was shocked to see who came in. It was a light brown skinned girl with chocolate brown hair. She wore a dark pink dress, golden shoes, and a golden tiara. Her noticeable features are white spots between her eyes, two deer ears, and two antlers on her head.

"Oh my." Rarity gasped. "Queen Daviana Deer!"

Everyone was shocked to see this visitor.

"Greetings, girls." Daviana greeted. "I heard of this slumber party from Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. So, I figured to visit you ladies for a while."

A small deer came in to be next to Daviana. Fluttershy was happy to see this critter. "Yay! It's Queen Daviana's bestie: Grassy."

Grassy came up to Fluttershy, and she gave a little deer a hug.

"No surprise that Grassy came to you, Fluttershy." Daviana figured. "You always have a way with animals."

Fluttershy blushed as Sunset spoke up. "What brings you here, Queen Daviana, your majesty?"

"I came by to check on all seven of you," Daviana explained, "to see how you all did this summer. Let's start with you, Twilight Sparkle."

"When the summer began, my friends and I were brought down by Miss Harshwhinny." Twilight said. "But, I was calmed down by a lot of royalty. I learned ballet dancing from Sarely Swan, attended a party with Deanna Dragon, and Flash Sentry and I joined Braylee and Bannon Bear for a picnic."

"And, I heard you met one of my fellow queens of Royal Isle."

"Oh yeah. I had the honor of meeting Queen Paradise Peacock."

Daviana then went over to Applejack who was dressed in her nightshirt. "Hello, Applejack. Or, as you would say, Howdy, partner. How was your summer?"

"Not that bad actually." Applejack answered. "When I was really upset, Falon Phoenix cheered me up. I was made pretty for a party thanks to Fabrina Fox. During a movie night at Sweet Apple Acres, Alessandro Lion was there to help me get over an argument. Finally, Zadie Zebra helped give me and Rarity ideas to get my barn ready for a groovy party."

I hope to meet Fabrina so she can give me some tips. Rarity thought.

Fluttershy, dressed in her green pajamas, was approached next.

"How was your summer, Fluttershy?" Daviana asked.

"It wasn't as bad as I dreaded." Fluttershy replied. "I enjoyed nature with Esmeralda Elephant, went swimming with Maura Mermaid, enjoyed some time with Sybill Snow Leopard, and had my hair styled by Lacey Lion."

Daviana soon went to Rarity, who was dressed in her blue short sleeved nightgown. "Did you have an enjoyable summer, Rarity?"

"Pretty exceptional, darling." Rarity said. "Me and Octavia went skating with Patterson Penguin, witness some glamping grounds set up by Gisela Giraffe, and admired some fashions inspired by Ambrose Unicorn."

Pinkie, dressed in a white tank top and magenta shorts, was next.

"I hope your summer was just as fun, Pinkie Pie." Daviana said.

"It sure was!" Pinkie said happily. "I was having fun at a lake with Mika Monkey, had help with party planning from Brystal Bunny, and was visited by Kamilla Kangaroo while setting up a gymnastics style birthday party."

Dressed in a white shirt with red short sleeves and blue sleep capris, Rainbow Dash is ready for her story.

"How was your summer, Rainbow Dash?" Daviana asked.

"It wasn't that bad." Dash replied. "I learned water skiing from Bevi Bunny, hung out with my fellow Wonderbolts as well as Ofelia Ostrich, had a cool time with Paolina Pegasus during a Wonderbolts picnic, and watched a hide and seek game wone by Gabriela Gazelle. Scootaloo is still stunned by that."

"So were Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon." Applejack reminded. "Remember?"

"Oh yeah. That's right."

Finally, it was Sunset Shimmer's turn.

"Hello, Sunset Shimmer." Daviana greeted. "Those purple pajamas look nice on you."

Sunset blushed at that comment. "Thanks, Queen Daviana."

"What was your summer like?"

"Interesting, to be sure. I was escorted to a party by Peola Pony, heard some sweet music from the bestie of Effie Elephant, and, during my lowest moment that summer, I was cheered up by Queen Unity Unicorn."

"Friends," Daviana announced, "you might have had a rough start this summer. But, thanks to all the Enchantimals you met, your worries were all washed away. Time for me and Grassy to head for home. Hope to see you again."

Queen Daviana and Grassy soon left the room and prepared to head back to Royal Isle. The seven girls soon felt a lot better, knowing the Royal Enchantimal is right.

Prologue: School’s out, Everwilde’s in (Again)

Author's Note

The summer break begins. And, so does more appearances by the Enchantimals.

Prologue: School’s out, Everwilde’s in (Again)

The bell rings to end the school year. Everybody is happy. Except for Twilight Sparkle and her friends. Before they left, Miss Harshwinny confronted them, and got furious at them. She reminded them of their guilty past. This left them rattled.

"What a meanie!" Pinkie Pie yelled. "Can't she stop this madness?"

"I agree." Twilight added. "Reminders of our not so great moments is always a bad time."

Suddenly, something tackled Fluttershy. Everyone got concerned. They soon saw that she was cuddling a bunny, a fox, a small deer, a skunk, and a peacock.

"Hey, Flutters." Rainbow Dash said. "Where did these critters come from?"

"I don't know." Fluttershy replied. "But, they're so cute."

Sunset Shimmer looked at the skunk with shock. "Wait a minute. Caper, is that you?"

The little skunk nodded as Rarity soon recognized the peacock. "Flap, what are you doing here?"

Applejack soon recognized the bunny. "Howdy, Twist. Good to see ya'."

The bunny hopped happily as Rainbow Dash approached the small deer. "Sprint! This is a surprise."

Pinkie soon picked up the fox. "Wowee! Flick!"

Twilight analyzed this gathering. "If Caper, Flap, Twist, Sprint, and Flick are here, then that means..."

"You called it, Twilight." Said the voice of a young girl.

The girls soon saw five familiar faces. Sage Skunk, Patter Peacock, Bree Bunny, Danessa Deer, and Felicity Fox from Everwilde. It was Sage who gave Twilight the greeting. As the animals went to their respected friends, the seven girls were shocked.

"What are you guys doing here?" Sunset asked.

"Since it's summertime," Felicity explained, "we of Everwilde are visiting Canterlot City again."

"We made some new friends since the last time we were here." Bree said. "They're probably here too. As well as other friends you probably haven't met yet."

"That means," Fluttershy said excitingly, "new besties to cuddle."

Fluttershy giggled as Sage Skunk approached her. "Easy, Fluttershy."

"Sorry, Sage. I just get excited when I'm around animals."

"Yeah. We know."

Danessa spoke up. "You girls might also meet some Royal Enchantimals."

"ROYAL ENCHANTIMALS?!" The seven girls gasped.

"That's right." Patter replied. "These girls and their besties might remind you of your old home in Equestria, Sunset."

This left Sunset surprised. "No joke?"

"No joke." Felicity replied. "See you guys later."

Felicity and her friends and their besties headed out. This left Twilight with an idea. "Girls, it's time we did some research."

3. Forest time with Esmerelda Elephant

Author's Note

Fluttershy feels very sad. Time for Esmeralda Elephant to help out.

3. Forest time with Esmerelda Elephant

Walking in the forest near her home, Fluttershy hopes to get over what Miss Harshwhinny did to her. She sat next to a tree, hoping to relax. But, she starts to tear up.

I never felt so embarrassed. Fluttershy thought. My friends probably felt the same way.

As Fluttershy starts to cry, a quiet voice starts to call her. "Hello, Fluttershy."

Fluttershy looked around to see where the voice came from. Slowly, a young girl steps out. She has gray skin, red hair in pigtails, and wore a pink top with a colorful sparkle design printed. She also wore a multi colored skirt and pink shoes. Fluttershy saw that this girl has big floppy ears.

"Oh my." Fluttershy gasped, knowing who this girl is. "Esmeralda Elephant!"

Esmeralda came over and gave Fluttershy a sweet hug.

"How did you find me?" Fluttershy wondered.

"Your mother told me that you come here to relax." Esmeralda replied. "I was told that you had a rough time in school."

"I sure have."

Fluttershy explained her sorrow. "I was given a hard time by Miss Harshwhinny. So did some of my friends. Harshwhinny thought I was crazy for understanding animals more than people."

"That's terrible!" Esmeralda gasped. "We of Everwilde appreciate your love for nature."

"At least somebody does."

Esmeralda sat close to Fluttershy to help calm her down. "Don't let that woman get you upset. She probably hasn't explored a place like this."

"I think you're right." Fluttershy said, feeling a bit better. "I was very impressed that some of the Enchantimals like Raelin Raccoon and Zelena Zebra likes my personality."

Pretty soon, a trio of small elephants came over to be with Fluttershy. This made Esmeralda very happy.

"Looks like my besties like you, Fluttershy." Esmeralda said happily.

"You're right." Fluttershy replied, cuddling the elephants. "Graceful, Mammoth, and Prunie are so adorable."

The two girls and the little elephants continue to enjoy each other's company. Later, Fluttershy slipped on a lime green long sleeve nightgown when she heard a knock on her door.

"Who knocks?" Fluttershy asked.

"It's just your mom, honey." Mrs. Shy replied. "May I come in?"

"Sure, mom."

Fluttershy's mom comes in to see how the nature lover is doing.

"Feeling a little better?" Mrs. Shy asked.

"I sure am." Fluttershy replied. "A walk through the forest is just what I needed."

"Especially since Esmeralda Elephant and her besties spent their time with you. How are Graceful, Prunie, and Mammoth?"

"They are so cute. I heard Esmeralda comes from the Sunny Savannah."

"Makes you wonder who else you girls will meet from that area of Everwilde."

Fluttershy smiled, knowing her mother made a point.

16. Wonderbolt Time with Paolina Pegasus

Author's Note

Now, it's time for Rainbow Dash to meet one of the royals.

16. Wonderbolt Time with Paolina Pegasus

After a grueling soccer game, the Wonderbolts decided to get together at a park for a picnic.

"Great idea to come here, Captain." Sky Stinger said with relief.

"I figured that this outdoor setting will help us relax." Spitfire replied. "Now, we know why Rainbow's friend, Fluttershy, likes areas like this."

"Uh, yeah." Rainbow Dash added. "Whatever you say."

Spitfire sees her star athlete getting nervous. And, hopes to calm her down. "Don't be worried, Dash. There's nothing wrong with being friends with that nature lover. She's pretty awesome in her own way."

Dash calmed down when Misty Fly approached her.

"I heard that you have not met one of those Royal Enchantimals yet." Misty figured.

"Yeah." Dash replied. "I know some of my friends met these Royals. In fact, Sunset and Twilight met two of the queens of Royal Isle."

"Well, you're going to meet a royal now." Misty then called for someone. "Come on over, Paolina!"

In steps a cream skinned girl with light teal hair, a pink top, flowery skirt, and golden shoes. Her noticeable features are pony ears and beautiful white wings.

"Greetings, everybody." The girl greeted.

Rainbow Dash was shocked to see this girl. She then turns to her teammate. "You actually know Paolina Pegasus?"

"I met up with her last week." Misty Fly explained. "And, I told her about my friends of the Wonderbolts."

"I was told about this picnic recently." Paolina continued. "So, why not spend time with you guys?"

"Why not?" Spitfire said. "It's not often that a member of Enchantimals Royalty visits us."

Paolina soon sits next to Rainbow Dash. "Hi there, Rainbow Dash. Nice to meet you."

The prism haired girl starts to get nervous.

"Relax, Rainbow." Soarin Skies assured. "Just because she's a Royal Enchantimal, doesn't mean you have to be nervous."

"I guess you're right." Rainbow replied as she turns to the visitor. "Sorry, Paolina. I meet quite a few Enchantimals last summer. But, not a royal."

"I heard that you got upset from what Miss Harshwhinny did to you." Paolina said.

"At first. But, thanks to Bevi Bunny and her partner, Jump, I feel better."

Suddenly, a small Pegasus with a flowing teal mane and tail came along. This critter then cane to Rainbow Dash.

"Hi, Wingley." Dash said as she pets the Pegasus. "Good to meet you."

"Wingley?" Vapor Trail wondered.

"Paolina's bestie." Spitfire informed.

Everybody enjoyed their day in the woods. Later, at her apartment, Sunset Shimmer was told about Rainbow Dash's day with a Royal Enchantimal.

So, Rainbow Dash met Paolina Pegasus and Wingley. Sunset thought. I wonder who Rarity will meet.

First, Tadley Tiger visited the Canterlot Carousel. Now, Sybill Snow Leopard comes along.

20. Getting Spotted with Sybil Snow Leopard

Fluttershy was passing by the Canterlot Carousel when she was spotted by Photo Finish.

"Fluttershy, my friend!" Photo calls out.

"Oh, hello." Fluttershy replied. "What can I do for you?"

"You came at a good time. A visitor from Snowy Valley is showing off her own unique style."

"Snowy Valley? This should be fun."

The two girls entered the store. They soon saw who Photo was talking about. This girl has white skin and pink hair. She wore a off whie dress with black spots. Her notable features are two cat ears, black spots on her face, and a long white tail.

"Oh my." Fluttershy gasped. "Sybill Snow Leopard."

"You know of her?" Photo asked.

"I heard of her. But, what is she doing here?"

Sybill then walked up to the two girls and gave an explanation. "I'll tell you why. Me and my bestie came to visit the Canterlot Carousel when we heard of another Enchantimal came over last summer."

"Oh yes." Photo figured. "That would be Tadley Tiger. Sassy was in love with her outfit, and prepared a wild fashion line."

"I wish I was there." Fluttershy sighed. "I would've loved to meet her bestie, Kitty."

Soon, Fluttershy felt something rub against her leg. It turned out to be a snow leopard cub. Feeling happy, she picked up the cub and started to cuddle the animal. "Hello, Flake. It's nice to meet you."

Sassy then came in the room. "Hi, girls. I see you met Sybill and Flake."

"Indeed, we did." Photo replied. "What brings Miss Snow Leopard here?"

"She and her bestie were admiring the wild nature line Tadley Tiger inspired. I saw her outfit and fell in love."

"I get it." Fluttershy said as she places Flake down. "You got another inspiration from her outfit."

"That's right, Fluttershy." Sybill replied. "I guess she loves animal prints."

"I guess so."

"I can't wait to tell Rarity about this." Photo said excitingly. Later, Fluttershy went over to Rarity’s house to spend the night. She told her fashionista friend about her day at the Canterlot Carousel.

"You met Sybill Snow Leopard?" Rarity gasped. "I wish I was there. I could get a lot of inspiration from her wardrobe."

"I'm sure you would." Fluttershy replied. "That's what you and Patter have in common. You both like to find inspiration for making clothes."

"Indeed. By the way, how was Sybill's bestie: Flake?"

"Flake is so adorable. Then again, I feel the same way about any bestie."

Rarity chuckled knowing Fluttershy is right. "I'm sure you do."

Epilogue: Summer Enchantment Done

Author's Note

Here is the finale of this story.

Epilogue: Summer Enchantment Done

The school year begins. In the halls, students started talking about new rumors spreading about Everwilde. The rumors were that younger sisters of known Enchantimals are planning to visit Canterlot. These younger sisters have their own besties. Other talk is about other lands discovered like Raindrop Forest, Sunscape Desert, Pointy Peaks, and the Ocean Kingdom. The Rainbooms hope to meet new friends from those locals as well as the Paradise Plains. Outside the school, Miss Harshwhinny is shocked to see those seven girls are not upset anymore.

"I don't understand." Harshwhinny said to herself. "I thought those seven girls would still be crying and sobbing after what I did to them. Especially Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer. I wonder if somebody approached them and got them to forget their sorrows."

Just then, Felicity Fox and her bestie came to talk to her. Felicity speaks up. "Well, Miss Harshwhinny. You might say that."

Flick crawled up and kissed her on the cheek. As the Enchantimal and her bestie leave, Miss Harshwhinny looked at them. But, is not convinced. "Nah, that's silly. It couldn't be them."

THE END
