To do this, the eldest used her unicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn; the younger brought out the moon to begin the night. Thus, the two sisters maintained balance for the kingdom and their subjects, all the different types of ponies. But as time went on, the younger sister became resentful. The ponies relished and played in the day her elder sister brought forth, but shunned and slept through her beautiful night. One fateful day, the younger unicorn refused to lower the moon to make way for the dawn. The elder sister tried to reason with her, but the bitterness in the young one's heart had transformed her into a wicked mare of darkness: Nightmare Moon. She vowed that she would shroud the land in eternal night. Reluctantly, the elder sister harnessed the most powerful magic known to ponydom: the Elements of Harmony. Using the magic of the Elements of Harmony, she tried to defeat her younger sister but she didn’t have enough power by herself, a third alicorn, an odd male, came to her assistance, he amplified the Elements power tenfold , and banished her permanently in the moon. But permanently was not what Nightmare Moon had in mind. Before her defeat, she announced that one day she will return, along with her conquest for eternal night. The male however had a prophecy of his own. When Nightmare Moon returns an old mysterious pony and six young mares will use the powers of harmony to defeat Nightmare Moon once and for all and restore peace and harmony to the land once more. In the meantime, the elder sister took on responsibility for both sun and moon and harmony has been maintained in Equestria for generations since, while the male left with parting words “Be seein’ ya soon.”." Lying up against a tree, in Canterlot , was a young mare by the name Twilight Sparkle; she was a purple unicorn, with darker shade of purple for her mane and single strip of purple going through it. “The Elements of Harmony?” she muttered to herself, she got up, placed the book in her saddle bags and headed off to the library. On the way she bumped into three mares. “There you are Twilight.” One of them said, she was deep blue mare with a mane of three shades of blue and her cutie mark of an hourglass, the second was yellow and her mane was dark blue, her cutie mark was three hearts, the third had a white coat, her mane was a bright pink and her cutie mark was three stars. “Moondancer’s a little get together and you’re invited.” The blue one said. “Oh sorry girls, I got lots of studying to do.” Twilight said with a nervous smile before running off. “I swear that girl seems like she wants to spend more time studying then making friends.” The blue one said again, as the green shook her head. She then passed by two more ponies that waved a hello to her but ignored them as she keeps running. She later runs to the stairs of a tall white building and heads to the top. A little purple dragon with green spikes was walking to the door with a present in his claws until all of a sudden the doors opened thus hitting him with the process. "Ow!" yelled the baby dragon. "Spike! Spi-ike! Spike?" Twilight yelled. "There you are." Spike was lying on the floor, grunting while rubbing his head."Quick, find me that old copy of Predictions and Prophecies. What's that for?" Twilight pointed at his tail. Spike turned to see the present he was holding stuck on his tail."Well, it was a gift from Moondancer, but..." Spike said as a ripped teddy bear falls through the bottom hole. "Oh Spike, you know we don't have time for that sort of thing." Twilight said as she searches for the book she asked for. "But we're on a break!" Spike complained Twilight stares at a book on the ground for a moment until she her horn started glowing. Books were now levitating with a purple glow surrounding them similar to Twilights horn. "No, no, no, ... no, no, and no! (Grunt) SPIKE!" Twilight yelled in frustration. "It's over here!" Spike said while holding a book on a ladder. He was suddenly pulled off the ladder by the book which Twilight was controlling and face planted on the ground."Ah!" Twilight walked with the floating book by her side leaving Spike a huge mess to clean. "Elements, Elements, E, E, E... Aha! Elements of Harmony, see: Mare in the Moon?" Wondered Twilight. "Mare in the Moon? But that's just an old ponies' tale." Spike said while he re-shelved the books. "Mare, mare... aha! The Mare in the Moon, myth from olden pony times. A powerful pony who wanted to rule Equestria, defeated by the Elements of Harmony and imprisoned in the moon. Legend has it that on the longest day of the thousandth year, the stars will aid in her escape, and she will bring about night time eternal! (Gasps) Spike! Do you know what this means?" Twilight worried. "No-whoa!" Spike fall's off the ladder while putting the books away and was about to have another painful fall but was saved by Twilight. "Take a note please, to the Princess." Twilight ordered extending her tail. "Okie-dokie." Spike obeyed sliding on her tail. "My dearest teacher, my continuing studies of pony magic have led me to discover that we are on the precipice of disaster!" Twilight saying what to write as Spike writes. "Hold on. Preci... preci..." Spike finding difficulty on how to say it. "Threshold." "Threh..." Spike still having trouble. "Uh, brink?" "..." Spike just stared confused. "Ugh, that something really bad is about to happen!" Spike resumes writing. "For you see, the mythical Mare in the Moon is in fact Nightmare Moon, and she's about to return to Equestria, and bring with her eternal night! Something must be done to make sure this terrible prophecy does not come true. I await your quick response. Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle." Twilight finishes. "Twi-light Spar-kle. Got it!" Spike announced. At that point there was a loud boom sound followed by a massive blast wave, Spike looked down to see the letter to Celestia had disappeared, “That was…. odd.” Twilight said, looking around she didn’t see any damage to the books but several marks on the floor mostly in circles, Suddenly there was screaming outside, Twilight rushed to the balcony and once she got there she looked up to sky and saw a meteorite heading straight for her, “SPIKE TAKE COVER!” she shouted, running back in she grabbed Spike and created a shield bubble around the two, there was a loud CRASH sound followed by a screeching noise, Twilight opened her eyes to see a stallion in front of her and Spike the weird bit was there wasn't a scratch on him, End of Prologue
