On a clear and beautiful night, Princess Celestia and the mane six were watching Princess Luna create beautiful stars. It's one of her favorite things to do at night. What's he's about to do right now is to create a wishing star for the ponies all over Equestria.

"What do you think, girls? I think this wishing star would help the ponies be more happier in the night." Luna asked. "It looks wonderful, sister. Shiny and bright, every pony here will love your creation." said Celestia. "So, all you have to do is wish on it and your wishes will come true?" Pinkie asked. "Thats right, Pinkie. When you wish upon a star, your dreams will come true." Luna explained.

Then, she begins to sing,

(When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing

Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true.)

When she's done singing, everyone was amazed at her singing and her explanation. "Wow, Luna. That was beautiful." said Twilight. "I'm sure the ponies on Ponyville can hear ya from far away." said Applejack.

Then suddenly, the Book of Disney is calling them for an adventure. "Well, the Book of Disney is calling you, girls. Better get yourself ready." said Celestia. "We will, Princess Celestia." Twilight promised. "Good luck, girls!" Luna yelled.

When the girls made it to the throne room, Twilight went to the Book of Disney and opened the next chapter. The next story is Pinocchio. Twilight began to read,

"Once upon a time, lived a man named Geppetto who wishes to have a child of his own. So, he creates a wooden puppet boy who he calls Pinocchio and dances with him. That night, he sees a wishing star and makes a wish on it. His wish was for Pinocchio to come to life and be a real boy. But, a cricket named Jiminy Cricket was at his house to stay for the night and watches him wishing on the star. When everyone fell asleep, a blue fairy arrived and made Pinocchio come to life. But, he's not a real boy yet. The only way to become a real boy is he has to be brave, truthful, and unselfish. When Geppetto wakes up and saw Pinocchio alive, he was thrilled and celebrated him. But, the blue fairy wants Jiminy to be Pinocchio's conscience so he can learn from right and wrong. In order to be a real boy, he has to go to school like other boys do. But, there are some people who want Pinocchio because he's a puppet with no strings. You must protect him from the selfish people around him."

Once Twilight is done reading, she and her friends got sucked into the book.

...

They are now in a small village where Pinocchio lives.

"Uh, aren't we supposed to see Pinocchio?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Yeah, that's right. He's about to go to school and it's his first day." said Fluttershy. "And we should keep an eye on him, too. The Book of Disney did say selfish people are after that poor boy." Applejack warned. "Oh, dear." said Rarity. "Don't worry, girls. I'm sure we'll find him before the selfish people do." Twilight promised. "What about that cricket who's with him? He's so small that someone might step on him." Pinkie asked. "I'm sure he'll help us, too." said Twilight.

While walking, they found Pinocchio walking to school with books and an apple in his hand. "Was that Pinocchio?" Pinkie asked. "Yep. I believe that's him. Since he's made out of wood and does not have any strings on him." Applejack answered. "Well, let's go and say hi to him to see if it's really him." said Twilight.

Pinocchio whistled while going to school until Twilight tapped his shoulder. "Sorry to bother you, kid. But, are you Pinocchio?" she asked. "Well, yes I am. And how'd you know my name?" Pinocchio asked the mane six. "We were sent here to protect you from selfish people and make sure you go to school safely. Plus, a book told us your name." Rarity explained. "Selfish people? I don't see anyone selfish around here." said Pinocchio. "Well, you don't know who the people are once you get to know them." Fluttershy explained.

"I know you ponies aren't. What are your names?" Pinocchio asked. "I'm Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends. Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Rarity." Twilight introduced. "Nice to meet you all. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go to school. I don't want to be late." said Pinocchio as he walks away from the girls.

"Wait, Pinocchio. Come back! Can we just walk you to the school?" Twilight shouted. "No thanks, I'm good. You girls should just run along." said Pinocchio as he keeps walking away from them. "Kids. They don't listen to anything you say." said Rarity. "I'll say. He never listens to me." said Jiminy Cricket as he stands in front of Rarity. Rarity screamed and was about to step on him, but Fluttershy stopped him. "Rarity, stop! It's Jiminy Cricket! Pinocchio's conscience!" she yelled. "Oh, sorry." said Rarity.

"That's alright. Sometimes, I wish I was as big as you girls. But, that won't happen. I heard you girls were talking to Pinocchio and warning him about selfish people who wanted to take him away all because he's a puppet with no strings." Jiminy said. "Aren't you supposed to be with Pinocchio just so you can help him solve problems at school?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Well, I was with him until something blew me away. Now, I have to find him before somebody else does." said Jiminy. "Then let's go! Hope no ones with him." said Applejack. So, the girls and Jiminy ran off to find Pinocchio.

They found him walking with a fox and a cat who are taking him to Stromboli. The guy who hosts a puppet show. "PINOCCHIO!" the mane six shouted. "Huh? What are you guys doing here?" Pinocchio asked. "Don't trust them! They're strangers!" Pinkie yelled. "We're not strangers. We are agents who want him to be famous and we are taking him to see Stromboli." the fox said. "Isn't that great?" Pinocchio asked. "No, it's great. You're just a kid and you're too young for this." said Rainbow Dash. "Not listening! Gideon, why don't you take the ponies to a meat store. I'm sure they'll make delicious meat." the fox ordered.

Gideon takes the mane six and Jiminy to the meat store and locks the door. Twilight immediately destroyed the door with her magic and everyone got out. But when they did, the fox and the cat disappeared with Pinocchio. "Where'd they go?" Applejack asked. "That darn cat!" Fluttershy yelled. "They disappeared. Just like that." said Rainbow Dash. "Where would they take Pinocchio since he's a puppet? I don't remember what that fox said." Rarity asked. Twilight thought for a moment and said, "I think they're taking him to Stromboli. Look at this poster. That must be Stromboli himself and I know why Pinocchio is going there. He's a puppet master."

They all looked at the poster and knew what Twilight was talking about. "Well, come on. Let's go save him before something bad is happening to him." said Jiminy. So, they ran off to save Pinocchio from who knows what.

...

That night, the mane six and Jiminy finally found Pinocchio at a puppet show where the audience loved his performance.

"There he is." said Fluttershy. "Pinocchio!" Jiminy shouted. "He can't hear you. The crowds are too loud for him to hear us. We have to get to him." Twilight explained. "But how?" Rarity asked. "Can you fly up there and catch him, Dashie?" Pinkie asked. "I'll try and get him as soon as I could." said Rainbow Dash as she flies up to the stage and tries to catch Pinocchio while he's dancing on stage. But, Stromboli sees this and caught her with her tail.

"You dare to capture my creation?!" he yelled at her face. "I wasn't. I was trying to save him. He doesn't belong here. He's too young. It'll destroy his life." Rainbow Dash explained. Stromboli growled at her and said, "That puppet doesn't have a life." Then, he throws her away from the crowd and back to her friends.

Rainbow Dash got up and dusted herself to get the dust off. "What happened?" Twilight asked. "I can't get to him. Stromboli won't let me to. He said Pinocchio doesn't have a life." Rainbow Dash explained. The girls gasped at this. "Now, what do we do? There's got to be another way to save him!" said Rarity. "Calm down, Rarity. We'll think of something. Any ideas?" said Applejack. "Well, I guess we have to wait till the audience is gone. Then, we'll get Pinocchio." Jiminy suggested. "Do we have to?" Fluttershy asked. "I'm afraid so, my dear. Patience is the best thing to get what you want." said Jiminy.

"Ok, Jiminy. We will wait for the audience to disappear." said Twilight. And wait they go.

...

After the audience left for the night, the mane six went off to Stromboli's trailer where Pinocchio is. They saw him putting the poor puppet in a cage and telling him he'll be firewood by the time he gets old.

"Ok, girls. Once Stromboli leaves, we immediately get Pinocchio out of there! No matter what." Twilight whispered. "Then, let's get him right now and punch Stromboli in the face many times." said Rainbow Dash. "That won't work that way, Rainbow Dash. Like I told you all, you need to be patient to get what you want." said Jiminy. Rainbow Dash sighed in annoyance.

After Stromboli left, the mane six sneaks into the trailer to get Pinocchio out. "Psst. Pinocchio. You in here?" Pinkie asked. "Pinocchio? Pinocchio?" Jiminy called. What calls them back was some sobbing coming from the other side of the room. It was Pinocchio crying in a cage. "Pinocchio!" the mane six shouted out as they went towards him. "Girls! Jiminy! Boy, am I glad to see you. I'm sorry I didn't listen to you about the selfish people getting me." said Pinocchio. "That's okay, dear. It's a good thing you learned your lesson." said Rarity. "Now, let's get you out of that cage!" said Twilight as she zaps the cage with her magic and Pinocchio is free at last.

Then, they ran straight towards home.

...

As they were about to reach Pinocchio's home, the mane six got separated by the fox and the cat again, but this time they used a wagon to push them over and crash into a wall.

"Hey! What gives?!" Applejack yelled. Fluttershy gasped and said, "Quick, girls! Its that same cat and fox who took away Pinocchio last time." "Well, they won't get him this time!" Pinkie yelled as she charges at them, but the cat hits her with a hammer and she lands right back where she was. "You okay, Pinkie?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I'm fine. Boy, are they tricksters." said Pinkie. "Well, lets get them before they take away Pinocchio again." said Rarity. The girls agreed with her on that.

But once again, they were too late. The cat and the fox already took Pinocchio, but this time they didn't take him to Stromboli. Instead, they're taking him to Pleasure Island. "Great. We lost them again. And I have a feeling they took him somewhere else besides Stromboli." said Rainbow Dash. "How should I know where they went? All I heard was Pleasure Island." said Pinkie. The girls and Jiminy just stared at her for what she just said. "What?" she asked.

"Pinkie, that's it. That must be where the fox and the cat are taking Pinocchio. Pleasure Island. I don't know what the place looks like, but I know its not a good place for him to be there. Besides, we know what that fox and the cat are up to. They want money and will do anything to get it." Twilight explained. The girls gasped at this. "Oh no! What do we do? Do we have to face them?" Fluttershy asked. "Well, the important thing is to get Pinocchio back home." said Twilight.

So, the mane six and Jiminy grabbed a boat and went fast as they could to get to Pleasure Island and save Pinocchio.

...

When they got there, they saw a huge fair full of rides and games to have fun with. But, there's no sign of Pinocchio.

"This is Pleasure Island? It doesn't seem dangerous. It's just a fair." said Pinkie. "Well, I gotta tell you something, Pinkie. It may look sweet and happy on the outside, but on the inside is a dangerous place where no one ever comes back as themselves." Twilight warned. Pinkie gulped at this.

They finally found Pinocchio playing pool with his new friend, Lampwick. "Pinocchio, there you are. We've been worried sick." said Rarity. "You were? I thought you've forgotton me." said Pinocchio as he smokes a cigarette. "What? We never forgot about you. That's why we came here. To save you." Twilight explained. "Well, he doesn't want you to save him. I'm the one who saved him." said Lampwick. "No, you didn't. You just turned him into a brat like you!" Rainbow Dash yelled. "Get out of here!" Lampwick yelled as he kicks them out, leaving Pinocchio in shock.

They dusted themselves off and Rainbow Dash yelled, "You don't wanna be saved? Fine! We'lol just leave without you!" "I guess he's much happier here than with us. Like, every time we try to save him, he gets kidnapped again." said Fluttershy. "She's right. Now, what? Can we just leave the island?" Applejack asked. "Yeah, let's just go. I don't like this place ever since I got here." said Twilight.

As the girls were about to leave, they accidentally went to the wrong door and saw a shocking discovery about Pleasure Island. All of the boys were turned into donkeys and are going to be sold in slavery. "What the hay is this?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Where did the donkeys come from and where are the boys?" Rarity asked. But, they hear someone mentioning the boys have been turnings into donkeys. "Boys turning into donkeys? Oh no! We gotta warn Pinocchio!" Jiminy yelled. "No wonder why you said this place is terrible. What if we turn into donkeys?" said Pinkie. "Don't worry, Pinkie. We won't." said Twilight.

When they went back to Pinocchio, they watched in horror as Lampwick turns into a donkey. "Oh my goodness! It's so scary that it makes want to scream!" Fluttershy yelled. "How in tarnation does the boys turn into donkeys?" Applejack asked. Then, Pinocchio is getting some donkey ears and tail. "Girls, help me!" he cried out. Twilight grabs him with her magic and teleports her and her friends back to the village.

Away from this misery.

...

When they got back, they all sighed in relief as they hot out of there safe and sound.

"Phew! That was close!" said Rarity. "Too close! I was so worried that Pinocchio would turn completely into a donkey. Let's be thankful we didn't." said Rainbow Dash. "But, want about those poor boys? Don't they need our help?" Fluttershy asked. "No! We are not going back to that terrible place. I just want to go home and see my father!" Pinocchio cried. "You're right. We should take you home and make sure we get you there safely." said Twilight. "I'm sure your father must be very worried about you." said Fluttershy.

When they made it to Pinocchio's home, it was empty. No one was home, not even Geppetto. "Where are they? Are you sure this is the right house, Pinocchio?" Rainbow Dash asked. "It is the right house, I swear. Just don't know why he's not home." said Pinocchio. "Probably because he's looking for you. But, we need to find out where he is." said Applejack.

But all of the sudden, a glowing light appeared in the night sky and a small letter falls from it. The letter lands in front of the mane six and Pinocchio. "It's a letter." said Pinkie. "What does it say?" Rarity asked. "I don't know. Let's find out." said Twilight as she picks up the letter with her magic and begins to read,

"I know you are looking for Geppetto, and I know where he is. While he was looking for you, he got swallowed up by a whale called Monstro. He lives in the ocean not far from the town. You must save him, he needs you."

Everyone gasped at this. "Swallowed by a whale? How dreadful." said Rarity. "Papa! Oh no! This is all my fault!" Pinocchio cried. "It's not your fault, Pinocchio. It's just that we need to be more careful on what's going on around you since you're just a kid." Jiminy explained. "So, now we have to find the whale to save Geppetto?" Rainbow Dash asked. "That's right, Rainbow. We're gonna hunt some whale." said Applejack. "Come on, girls. Let's go save my father!" Pinocchio shouted.

And they're off to the ocean to save Geppetto from Monstro.

...

The ocean seemed calm and relaxing, but not on the inside since Monstro lives there.

"Okay, this is it. You ready, girls?" Twilight asked. The girls, Pinocchio, and Jiminy nodded yes. "Alright, here goes." said Twilight as she uses her magic to create a submarine for her and her friends. "Whoa. What is that?" Pinocchio asked. "It's a submarine. This is how we are going underwater by going into this and find Monstro. That way, we can get your father and bring him home safely." Twilight explained.

"That looks so cool! How did you manage to do that?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I like the color. It's really pinkish purplish color. I should have that color for one of my dresses." said Rarity. "You sure this will help us get to Monstro quicker?" Applejack asked. "Is it safe?" Fluttershy asked. "I'm sure it'll be safe for us and will get us to Monstro." said Twilight. Pinkie hops onto the submarine and looks around. She pops up and said, "Hop in, everyone. We've got a whale to catch." So, the girls, Jiminy, and Pinocchio went inside the submarine and got seated.

"Alright, everyone. This is gonna be a bumpy ride. You might wanna hang onto something." said Twilight. Everyone was hanging onto the bars from above. "Ok. Here we go." said Twilight as she pressed a button to make the submarine go underwater. Once it falls off the cliff, everyone screamed as it reached into the water and sees something else. "That wasn't so bad." said Pinkie. "I'm glad everyone enjoyed the ride. Now, let's go and find Monstro." said Twilight as she begins to drive the submarine and turns the light on so she can see the ocean.

As they search for Monstro, all they see was fish and other sea creatures. "Where is he? I don't see him anywhere." Fluttershy asked. "I'm sure he's sleeping somewhere." Applejack guessed. "Well, that's why I have this light on." said Twilight. She moved the light around until she skipped a huge rock. But, it wasn't a rock. It was Monstro. "Found him!" Pinkie shouted. "Now, let's get his attention by waking him up." said Applejack.

Twilight moved the light towards Monstro's eye so he can wake up. But, it didn't work. "Come on, big guy. Wake up and smell the coffee." she muttered. "How come he's not waking up?" Pinocchio asked. "Oh, we'll wake him up alright. We just have to give him an alarm clock." said Pinkie in a sneaky attitude. She pressed the blue button and the submarine unleashed a really loud honk. Everyone covered their ears as the noise was heard.

Suddenly, Monstro's eyes were wide open. He got up and saw the submarine. "Well done, Pinkie. Your idea worked." said Twilight. "Now what?" Jiminy asked. "He has to swallow us. If he does, we'll find Geppetto." Twilight answered. Monstro growled at them and immediately swallowed the submarine whole. Everyone screamed as they go inside the whale's mouth.

Look on the bright side, at least they'll rescue Geppetto.

...

Once inside the mouth, the submarine was risen from the water and had no damage from the attack. Twilight opened the lid to see if Geppetto's boat is around.

"See anything?" Pinocchio asked. "That was dreadful when he swallowed us." said Rarity. "Not yet. I might need some light." said Twilight as she uses her magic to light it up so she can see what's in the mouth other than the submarine. "Hello? Anyone here?" Rainbow Dash called. Nothing. But, they hear something. They all hear Geppetto calling them.

"It's my dad. I hear him!" Pinocchio yelled. They saw him waving his arms around so they can see him. "Over here!" he shouted. "Father!" Pinocchio shouted. "Pinocchio!" Geppetto shouted back. "There he is!" Twilight shouted as she uses her magic to move the submarine towards his boat.

When they landed, Pinocchio rushed towards his father and gave him a huge hug. "Oh, my boy. I thought I lost you." said Geppetto as he keeps hugging his son. "I'm so glad I found you, father. Thanks to the girls here, I would've been stuck with terrible people." said Pinocchio. Geppetto looked at the mane six and said, "Thank you for saving me and my son. Now, all we gotta do is to get out of here."

"Don't worry, sir. We'll think of something. Any ideas?" said Twilight. Everyone thought for a moment until Pinocchio said, "Why don't we make him sneeze?" "That's a great idea, Pinocchio. But, how do we make him sneeze? We don't have any pepper." said Pinkie. "We won't need pepper. We need smoke to make him sneeze." Pinocchio explained. "And by smoke? We." Applejack asked. "We need to make a fire. A huge one. That way he can sneeze us out of here." Pinocchio explained. "Good idea, Pinocchio. Let's do it." said Twilight.

Everyone gathered every wood they could find to build the fire. And then, Pinocchio breaks a lamp and they finally created a bonfire. The smoke immediately rises and flew up all the way up to the ceiling. "Oh, I just hope this works." said Rainbow Dash. Then, they hear Monstro huffing and the water is driving them backwards. "It's working! Hold on tight, everyone." said Twilight. And then, Monstro sneezed.

In a flash, everyone was out of Monstro's mouth. Then, he sneezed again. This time, it blew everyone away. "Gesundheit!" said Jiminy. "Man, that was one powerful sneeze." said Rarity. "I'll say. He's gonna suffer that for a week." said Pinkie. "I wouldn't say that, Pinkie. Look!" said Twilight as she watches Monstro get the smoke out of him and begins to charge at them. His tail whacks the boat and knocks out Geppetto. "Quick, to the shore! Hurry!" Applejack yelled as she swam to the surface. Pinocchio tried to pull his father to the shore where Applejack is heading.

While everyone is heading towards the shore, Monstro rushed to them and crashed. This causes everyone to fly in the air and fall to the ground safely. Which ends up everyone being exhausted. "Oh my Celestia. What a rough whale." said Fluttershy. "At least we made it out safely." Applejack said. "Say, where's Pinocchio?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Oh my gosh, I forgot about him. Let's go find him." said Twilight.

"Pinocchio! Pinocchio! Where are you?" Jiminy called out. "Pinocchio?" Twilight called. But, she gasped when she saw him.

Pinocchio was found on the ground, unconscious.

...

They brought him back home as they mourn for Pinocchio. Tears were shed by everyone, including Jiminy.

"Oh, Pinocchio. We are so thankful you saved your father. You really are a brave little boy." Twilight cried. But suddenly, a glowing light was surrounding Pinocchio as he transforms into a real life human boy. The mane six were gasping in surprise. Then, he begins to wake up. "Pinocchio! You're alive!" Twilight shouted. "I am?" Pinocchio asked as he looks at himself. "I don't believe it, you're a real boy!" Rainbow Dash shouted out. "You're right. I'm a real boy!" Pinocchio shouted.

Geppetto stood up and saw his boy alive and has become a real boy. "You're alive? And you're a real boy? I don't believe this! My boy is real!" he shouted in glee as he picks him up and twirls him around. The mane six cheered for him. Jiminy was excited too as he won a medal for being an official conscience.

"Well, girls. I think it's time for us to go." said Twilight. "You're leaving, already? Ok, I'm gonna miss you. Thnaks for helping me become a real boy." said Pinocchio. "We appreciate you coming here and helping us out." said Jiminy. "My life wouldn't be the same without you." said Geppetto.

"Bye, Pinocchio! Bye, Jiminy! Bye, Geppetto!" The girls shouted as they disappeared from them.

"Bye, girls!" Everyone shouted.

...

When the Book of Disney dropped them off, they realized Princess Celestia and Princess Luna have left.

"Where did the princesses go?" Twilight asked. "I guess they left for their duties. Don't worry, they'll come back." said Rarity. "Yeah. At least Luna made something wonderful for us." said Twilight as she watches the wishing star shining bright.

...

Later that night, Twilight went to the Disney Journal and begins to write. She wrote,

"What I learned today is about wishing. When you wish upon a star, your dreams will come true. But, there will be people out there that wanted it for themselves. If you want something, you have to be brave, truthful, and unselfish. That's what I am to my friends."
