It had been four years since the DIscord incident. Four entire years. Not much happened within those four years. Sure, there was the occasional vision, but Twilight had recently turned 15 years old, Rainbow Dash 13, and Fluttershy 15 too, and nopony had seen DIscord since. Search parties had been made, but nothing was found. Apparently, the incident at the castle was the last time he was seen. Anyways, it was the Summer Sun Celebration, which was being held in a small town called Ponyville.

"Heh. It was the place that silly pink filly told us where she was staying around four years ago. Pinkie Pie, I think? My memories' a little fuzzy," Rainbow Dash said.

"Yeah, I think," Twilight said. The Princess had summoned them to the throne room.

"Lets go," Fluttershy said.

"Okay," Twilight said. The three later arrived at the palace.

They opened the door to the throne room.

"Hello, my friends. How was your trip here?" Princess Celestia asked.

"Oh... it was fine. Why did you summon us here?" Twilight asked.

"Well, we would love to ask you three to supervise preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration in this year's location, Ponyville. If you want to, of course," the Princess said.

"Oh, yeah. S-sure," Fluttershy muttered.

"Thank you. We will send a chariot to your place. It will send you directly to Ponyville for the 997th Summer Sun Celebration. You three can stay in a library afterwards. I believe it was called the Golden Oak Library." the Princess said. "I will see you there on the day of the celebration."

Author's Note

As mentioned, 997th Summer Sun Celebration. Keyword "997th". So don't expect Nightmare Moon just yet. I've got a special role for her in future installments. Again, this is still Chapter One after all, right?
