Starlight Star Bright Will There Be Magic Tonight?

It was a little over a fortnight after the charity event that the Mane Seven and Fledge helped spice up. Because of them spicing it up and their magical pony ups they'd raised three times the amount of the money needed to finish building the new addition to Fledge's family college campus. They're currently on their way to the college to see the ceremony to open it not even aware to what exactly they'd helped raised money to build.

However as Helena drove a very large indigo Subaru the girls were all teeming with excitement and looking forward to going to the college campus for a few different agendas.

Twilight's agenda was really to take in and see what kind of college her BBBFF had been accepted into. She really hadn't taken much in when the family been there for Shining Armor's interview to be accepted into the college since she'd been too distracted with her own research that would eventually lead her to attend CHS to study the Magic of Friendship. So she was keener on learning about this college curriculum and stats than anything else.

Fluttershy was more into seeing the campus grounds with the nature side of things. Fledge had been telling everyone all about his family's college and had informed them all his grandparents had made sure the campus had a lot of natural beauty as well with a lot of unusual trees and flowers. So that what Fluttershy want to see.

Rainbow Dash's main interest was checking out all the things connected to sports and other physical competition. So for her what she was most eager to check out was what kind of athletic amenities this place had to offer. For she'd seen some pictures in the pamphlet Twilight had shown them, however seeing a photograph is one thing, it's a whole another thing to actually be there physically and enjoying it.

Applejack and Pinkie Pie didn't seem to have anything obvious they wanted to really check out. Though knowing Pinkie Pie she see what kind of party college students usual throw and get a heads up for when she got there to make it ten times better. As for Applejack? She just seemed actually keen on the whole overall college itself.

As for Sunset she was just hoping to take it all in and both write and draw in great detail to Prince Fledge to tell him what his family had built her and find out if this college which was described to be like a golden palace with a small little kingdom that was the campus was like the golden flouting palace back in Equestria. She'd been working hard to better her artistic skills thanks to her mom Sunfire so she'd be able to do that picture in the magical journal.

What Rarity was after became obvious as they pulled into the college parking lot and got out. Her radiant bright blue eyes were locked on one thing and one thing only and it wasn't the clothes. She was ogling the boys her mind was only on one thing apparently. Finding a boy to dream a romantic fantasy about.

As a child Rarity was always one to love fairytale romances and play princess and tea parties. Which may explain why she still cling to some of it when it came to dating or how she thought Twilight and Fledge should court each other. It looked like Rarity was still hoping her own Cinderella story would happen and some handsome dashing guy would ride up on a white horse and it be happily ever after.

Applejack sighed in mild disgust as they climbed out of the car and easily could see what was on Rarity's mind. She liked Disney Princesses as much as the next girl. But she didn't really care for the ones who sat around and didn't really do anything to really take control of their own life and save themselves.

While Rarity may've loved Cinderella, Snow White and Aurora, Applejack was keener on the one Disney Princess that really proved that one can take fate into their own hands and a princess didn't just have to be married off and that be the end of it. So her personal favorite Disney Princess was Merida.

Though at the moment which of the Disney Princesses were each of the Mane Seven's favorites was neither here or there. They're here both for the grand tour and then getting to go see the opening of this new facility that they'd helped raise money for to finish building.

Though just one look at this college really did steal your breath away. It was true it wasn't well-known like Harvard, Yale or Princeton, but as both Twilight and Fledge pointed out that hadn't stop Golden Dreamstone for having its own good reputation of producing quite a lot of great students of its own and that countless students had gone on to make monumental impacts on the world and change it for the better! So it was a pretty darn good school all things considered.

Fledge was telling them as they started walking into the main courtyard that his dad Helia had a saying when it came to what this college meant. According to Fledge his father said the dream of this college was this. "Dreams and aspirations are important part of life and you're not complete without them. So every dreamer should know that no dream is too big or small and no dream is beyond the dreamers abilities to achieve. They merely had to want it bad enough and be prepared to make the hard journey to achieve it!"

Sunset paused a moment from trying to memorize the layout of the land around them to mention all that Fledge did in this world was truly like what his Alicorn pony counterpart did as the Prince of Dreams in Equestria.

She went on to explain what each Princess's title and job was. Since Princess Celestia was the old and wisest being alive over a 1000 years and not even look it and she raised the sun, one could say she was the Princess of the Day and Hope. For each day the sun rose brought new hope and each day you learn to be wiser then day before.

Princess Luna as the Princess of the Night and Moon. She was the one who's job to raise the moon cast the light into darkness to banish fears that the night preys upon and also brought her own wisdom into life as well. As for her when came to dreams. The dreams she had power over was the ones you had when you slumber which was different then the dreams Prince Fledge protected.

Princess Cadence was the Protector of the Crystal Empire and also the Princess of Love as that what she was truly talented in and every heart needed love and she ensure that it lived on in everypony's heart and soul.

They all understood what Princess Twilight's talent and job was and why it was important to ensure friendship was protected and taught because like everything else in life whether it be in Equestria or the world they lived it nothing was guaranteed and that include anything these Princesses stood for and protected.

As for what was Prince Fledge's responsibility? He was the Prince of Dreams, but that didn't mean the dreams you'd when you slept. It meant the beautiful dreams of your heart. The dreams that you sought to achieve and gave you a purpose and goal in life and that when one dream is achieve another would take its place.

For all the other Princesses' duties and jobs all came to play when it came to dreams. The Sun brought hope that the new day would lead you one step closer to your dream. The Moon cast the light of hope into the night to assure you it was safe to dream at night and keeping your hearts dream alive too. Furthermore no dream in life was worth having or complete without having both love and friendship with people in your life to share it with.

So Prince Fledge had a very important job and as he only lived, existed, and had magic as long as ponykind's faith in their dreams was strong it was very important he fulfilled his duties to the fullest.

She did also add that she'd no idea what special duty Princess Cadence and Shining Armor's new daughter Princess Flurry Heart would one day fulfill but if she was born an Alicorn then fate must have quite an extraordinary destiny for her to fulfill when she grew up.

She was also certain that one day Flurry Heart would come to exist in this world as well as every other pony in Equestria existed as a human, so that surely meant one day that Flurry Heart would exist in this world as well.

Though Twilight said that wasn't likely to happen till Shining Armor finished college and that Dean Cadence was willing to date him after getting over a former student being into her.

Fledge just said he personally believed and felt true love existed in all worlds and if someone was meant to be a soul mates to someone it didn't matter time, location or even species, love would find a way and what was meant to be would always happen forever and always!

Sunset felt on the inside he was right, yet again didn't reveal that in Equestria that Princess Twilight and Prince Fledge were already married. Nor did she reveal the fact that Twilight knew for sure that if she was ever to become a mother herself one day her child would for sure without a doubt be an Alicorn too.

Though they all put aside the talk of Equestria and royalty for the time being and instead just started to take in the sights and exciting prospects plus amenities this college had to offer. It was also obvious as they walked and talked throughout the tour of the college that they'd all hoped one day to be accept into it themselves to achieve their own individual dreams.

Things were going quite well as everyone was busy trying to keep up and behave as there was still some classes going on today. They may've not had any school today due to Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna having an emergency school board meeting over what they students didn't know but they all enjoyed having a three day weekend.

However college was in full swing so there was a lot of hustling and bustling and it was just a lot of chaotic energy and sensory overload as they walked through the college.

Fledge was just taking them to see how the school dorms looked by taking a shortcut through one of the corridors when something unexpected happened. Rarity wasn't paying any attention at all where she was going as she was still ogling every boy she saw looking for her dream boy.

She got distracted when she saw a few students going one way down the hall trying to glance to see the boys and didn't see till the door to the classroom on her right swung opening hitting her full in the face.

"OWW! That hurt!" she cried out in pain as she held her face in her hands and winced tears of pain from the impact. The others turned and hurried down the hallway to see what happened to Rarity who was still in pain, then they saw someone looking like they're trying to help and apologize to her at the same time for smacking the door into her face.

At first Rarity didn't have any idea what whoever was apologizing was saying as they're speaking in French. Though they caught on fast that she didn't speak French and changed to English, but didn't lose the accent.

"I'm so sorry, my lovely lady! I didn't mean to hit you with the door! A thousand apologizes! I swear I'd never hurt you or anyone on purpose! I feel most aghast and horrible for hurting anyone! Especially as beautiful a lady as yourself! Please forgive me!" the voice said.

"It's quite alright, I should've been paying attention to where I was going. So apology is accepted…" it was then Rarity stopped wincing in pain and her eyes became locked on the person the voice belong too and he was looking at her too.

It was a very handsome young man. He was wearing a black beret and a long sleeved very dark purple shirt and cargo pants and black leather boots. His dark red hair was styled with a blown back suave look and his eyes were a mesmerizing ocean blue. Overall the whole package looked very good!

Well you can imagine Rarity was blushing a fierce red as the boy looked her over and he seemed really concerned if he'd actually hurt her more than causing her a moment of pain.

"Sorry again, Cherie, for hitting you. Though you look alright, are you?" he asked nervously.

"I'm fine…thank you for checking me out to make sure I was. My name is Rarity. What's yours?" she stuttered as she seemed lost in his ocean blue eyes. He seemed lost in her own blue eyes.

"My name is Suave Debonair. I'm new to this country. I came all the way from France to attend this college. It's was quite an undertaking to go halfway around the world just to attend college. But you must go where the dream takes you I guess. Are you new here too?"

"Actually she with us, Suave. She attends the same high school I'm now attending myself and I'm giving them a tour around the college before the opening of the new building this afternoon by my parents. You okay, Rarity?" Fledge asked after explaining to the college freshman who Rarity was.

"Yes, I'm alright. A little embarrassed, but no-one died of embarrassment as far as I've known," she said with a giggle.

"Nice to know you're okay, Rarity. Well, sorry for bothering you, Suave. We'll be going. I was just about to show my friends here the dorms."

"No bother, Fledge. It's nice to know you've got some friends yourself, since everyone who attends this school all knows how your mother can be overprotective. That's common knowledge here since your parents are on the school board among their many other duties."

"Yeah, I know anyone whose seen me here in the past with my parents knows my mom just can't stop being paranoid. Ugh! Well, these are my friends or at least some of them.

Though at CHS everyone pretty much friends with everyone else. But these seven girls are the most magical and they'll teach you the most you need to know about friendship! So you've met Rarity, this is Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle."

"Pleased to meet all your acquaintances. Well enjoy the rest of the tour and maybe in two years you'll all be here as well. It's a wonderful school and quite a lot of fun and just very enjoyable! For more reasons than the silly parties. We have a great time learning and being social at the same time.

Well most of us. I know one other freshman who having quite a hard time with the social part of school. She doesn't have any trouble with the academic side. She's like the best student so far in this year freshman class and practically lives in the library most days! Her name is Moon Dancer and funnily enough looks a lot like you, Twilight just different coloring and she wears glasses."

"Well, hopefully the upcoming get-together will help her fit in, that and if more people just talk to her. I know the college is having a gathering next Saturday as my brother Shining Armor spoke about it last night. He said it's just a normal social party for the freshmen students to get together and mingle. So hopefully he and perhaps you can befriend this girl Moon Dancer." Twilight suggested kindly.

"I think I will. Well, can't be late to my next class, I've dawdle enough. Nice meeting all of you, especially you, Rarity. Um here's my cell number and email address. Perhaps we can hang out or chat sometime in the future?"

"Sure, I'd love to get to know you better. Talk to you later!"

"Well, see you all later! Have a nice day and talk to you later! Au Revoir!" and the charming French youth sprinted off to his next class.

"Rarity you okay?" Applejack asked as she waved hand in front of Rarity and got no reaction as she seemed to be frozen in place and just looking dazed. Now it looked like Rarity found herself being a smitten kitten. Like she finally found a boy to fulfill her fairytale romance fantasy.

Sunset just rolled her eyes and smiled. Looked like all the girls were finding the Magic of True Love as well. They really did understand the Magic of Friendship. But the Magic of True Love? That was something new they all had to learn. Still once they manage to break the love spell on Rarity which actually took Spike drooling on her boots to wake her up they were able to carry on with things.

Near the end of the day when it was actually almost dusk did Fledge say it was time to go to the opening of the new building which he hadn't told anyone what they're building on campus or why they'd been waiting to almost nightfall to open it?

But they went to the far back of the campus where there was a lot of space and then they saw the obvious reason why this building wasn't being opened till nightfall. It was an observatory and since those were built to study the stars and planets it's not like you could use one too much in the daylight!

"That building is freaking awesome! I mean it's so big and that gotta be like the biggest telescope in the whole state at least! What else is going on in the inside? Can you see every awesome thing from the Milky Way and beyond with that thing?" Rainbow Dash asked as she admired the huge telescope sticking out.

"Well it is the biggest telescope in the state, you're right about that, Rainbow Dash. It's got all the normal things you'd find in both a planetarium and normal research observatory. Like there many things to research all fields like celesta events, astronomy, as well as some meteorology. Sorry nothing for oceanography or volcanology.

Though we also have a lot interesting exhibits of the history of space and things that go into it. Like pieces of old satellites that have fallen, meteorites, things of that nature and again there is a room inside for an indoor star show to explain most of the history of the stars and what we do know of the universe." Fledge was explaining.

"What are you naming this building as everything on a campus gotta have a name? So what's this new observatory called?" Applejack inquired as they got nearer.

"We're calling it the Galileo's Nightlight Observatory. Since he studied so many different things and is known as "The Father of Observational Astronomy." Though he did do quite a lot of other things."

"Actually according to one of Sunfire's encyclopedias she's got many different topics, astronomy being one of them it turns out that Galileo didn't invent the telescope despite popular belief. It was a Dutch glasses maker named Hans Lippershey who made the telescope though Galileo did improve on the design to make a better one that helped with astronomy better than the one Hans invented.

Another surprising fact? We only can detect 5% of matter in the universe. The rest is invisible and is either dark matter or dark energy." Sunset informed them.

"Wow, you pretty smart, Sunset. I've never been one to take much of interested in the stars, though like Galileo I do have an interest in physics." Twilight spoke up.

"Not surprising given your so brainy yourself, darling. That pendent you made that caused so much trouble had to be a lot of both science and mathematical work on your part. Still the fact that it could contain our magic was strange enough!"

"Well, that was a piece of cake for me."

"Cake! Is there cake at this nighttime party?!" Pinkie Pie squealed and she was about to shoot off her party cannon when someone from behind them spoke in a tad annoyed and disapproving voice.

"Excuse me, but this is a college campus not some little kiddies birthday party. We're serious about our education here and we don't need foolish antics of people who cannot grow up to mess things up! So if you'd like to show this fine establishment some respect I lose the stupid toy like now."

Turning around they say two college freshmen behind them. One was a girl with purple hair with a greenish stripe. She was dressed in a light cerise knit top with matching sleek chinos and leather loafers. She had what be her cutie mark on the top.

The other was a ginger haired boy with a small goatee and glasses dressed in a greenish blue jacket covered with stars. He'd on a yellowish orange shirt with what would be his cutie mark on it and khakis. He had more than his fair share of books in his arms and the girl took some from him before he toppled forward from carrying too many.

"Thanks, Starlight."

"Not a problem, Sunburst. Now what are you juveniles doing at a college where those of both maturity and intelligence are supposed to be?" the girl Starlight inquired in a haughty tone.

"Hey! It's that supposed to be an insult just because Pinkie Pie likes to show her enthusiasm for life in a lively manner? You really want to mouth off right now, girlfriend?" Rainbow Dash demanded angrily as she got in front of the college girl.

Luckily before things explode Fledge came over to defuse the situation. "Hello, Starlight Glimmer. I see you and your best friend Sunburst are here to see the grand opening of the new observatory that these girls helped so greatly in building.

I know as the two the top students of the freshman class would be very eager to see the opening of this building. Especially since you both graduated from high school two years earlier and that's why you two are the youngest in the freshman class.

Since you really weren't that long ago in high school yourselves?"

"Hello, Fledge. You always made a point to come and see who was interviewing to hopefully be accepted into this prestige university. It was very nice of you to give our whole group who applied such a nice and inspirational speech on hopes and dreams when we're just getting ready to be interviewed that day.

Especially when you're so worried about attending CHS a week later. So if these are some of the other students from that high school, I'll say this to you lovely young ladies.

You're very lucky to have a guy like Fledge at your school. He's truly a gifted young man in many ways and just knows the right words to say to inspire you to shoot for the stars. I doubt that Starlight or I would've even been able to be calm and do the interview if he hadn't calmed us both down and helped us relax.

So you're lucky to know him! This world is very lucky to have people like the Dreamwings to make the world a happier place and hopefully all our dreams will come true.

I just hope I can accomplish my dream of becoming a physicist and just find ways to use the wonder of knowledge to do something really great and really change this world for the better!

You at least helped me get into this school to hopefully take the first step to make that happen! So thanks, Fledge."

"Welcome, Sunburst. Though you and your girlfriend here both had the amazing potential to make it all on your own. I just helped give you the reassurance you needed and confidence to do it.

So maybe, Starlight you could apologize to my friends here? I know you see getting into college when you're barely seventeen as quite achievement and it is. Though it's not an excuse no matter how smart you are to be of poor manners. So please apologize to my friends?" he requested and the girl looked shamefully and turned and said.

"Sorry for being rude, I just feel like sometimes I really have to act a lot older since most of the students here are a lot older than me and my boyfriend Sunburst here.

We were the best students in our high school and getting to graduate two years early and then get accepted here? It's a wonderful dream come true but it does come with a lot of pressure and sometimes you feel you've got to act a bit more mature then the rest so they don't think you're a stupid little kid." Starlight explained as she apologized.

"We accept your apology, Starlight, but to be honest? Being yourself and not caring how others may think of you is more important than trying to be someone else idea of who you should be.

Be yourself, be an individual and not a clone copy of everyone and just be you and don't give a crap what the others think. Now we'd all better head to see this new fancy dome over yonder open up and just see what the heavens after to offer tonight, shall we all?" Applejack suggested to which all agreed and the girls, Fledge and two freshmen followed them.

The opening went well as Fledge's parents were also gifted in the art of public speaking and his dad definitely had the right amount of charisma to draw your attention. They even had fireworks go off when they cut the red ribbon, though the fireworks weren't planned and it turned out that Pinkie Pie had supplied both the fireworks and got to shoot off her party cannons to really make it memorable.

Well the girls, Fledge and the other members of the college started to really explore the observatory and they found out some interesting facts as they explored. A number of the facts came from the display exhibits within the new building, on the other hand it was really Sunburst who explained in more detail and after a while Starlight also elaborate a bit more when the others didn't get what he was saying.

They explained that part of their own studies did consist of astrophysics. As they both yearned to become top scientists one day and truly make a difference in the world. Therefore they're studying numerous subjects to hopefully prepare them for a future in one of the many scientific fields and there were many to choose from. So they'd studying as many as possible to hopefully achieve their dreams or at least their career dreams.

It looked like they'd learning the Magic of True Love too just by looking at how they so complemented each other and were able to finish the other sentences as they told the girls more on the subject of the stars.

Like for example the energy released from the sun's core every second was the equivalent of 100 billion nukes and takes thousands of years to make it through the many layers of the sun itself.

Or that black holes literally do suck in everything including light but a special kind of radiation known as Hawking radiation can slip away and if you ever did get sucked into a black hole the gravity of one would pull you more at your feet thereby spaghettified or stretching you out!

Also when they're looking at 3D holographic models of the planets they learned that while Mercury is the closet planet to the sun it isn't the hottest because it lack almost any atmosphere and actual temperature on the dark side of the planet could be as low as -280 Fahrenheit

Surprisingly Venus has a very thick atmosphere which is why it's so hot as the thicker the atmosphere the more heat that gets trapped and also the strange fact that one day on Venus lasted 243 Earth day longs long and a year on Venus only lasted 224.7 days and it spun backwards slowly on its axis!

Also the when you look at the stars you're actually seeing how they looked in the past because the further away something away is the longer it took in time to reach our viewpoint. So really if you looked at the sun you're actually seeing how it looked 8.5 minutes ago as it takes that long for the sunlight just to reach Earth!

"Well the stars are very pretty that much is for sure. They look so lovely and beautiful through this telescope. It's a nice night for stargazing." Fluttershy mused as they took their turn with the powerful new telescope.

"If you want to see some really cool astronomical phenomenon and great weather to watch it on you should watch the skies this Saturday," Sunburst informed her after he got done taking some notes.

"Why would this Saturday be a good night to stargaze, darling?" Rarity asked curiously as she gazed upon the diamonds of the skies above.

"There will be a very great and visible meteor shower this weekend and also a rare comet is rumor to appear as well. And the weather will be perfect to view it all. That's why we hoped they get this building done before then so we can view it at its best!

Did you know that meteors are actually usually no bigger in size than a normal pebble and only really the biggest are the size of a softball?

Or the color it gives off in the sky depends on what type of composition it's made up of? There are three kinds of meteorites. Stony made up of rock, metallic if it has iron or mixture when it's got both rock and iron in it.

Some of the most famous meteorites are the Hoba, Willamette, Hodges, and the Allende. You can get more information on them over there at the interactive computer on the other side of the building." Starlight explained in a very eager voice.

"The comet rumored to be visible is so rare that it was only seen once before and that was nearly 95 years ago so it isn't even quite for sure it exist but we do hope to document as part of our studies here at the college."

"So this cosmic snowball you two are hoping to get some glory by confirming it actually exist I take it?" Rainbow Dash asked to which the college freshmen nodded.

"Well, it's getting late and we need to get home. We do have school tomorrow even if our weekend was three days. So nice to meet you both and thanks for telling us so much about the stars. But we've got to go! See you later!" Twilight said politely as the girls and Fledge left to find Helena who'd be taking them home.

"It was so divinely wonderful to be here for the opening of this spectacular and wonderful building to watch the heavens above. Not to mention the day was more prosperous in more than one way," Rarity murmured dreamily as she looked at the note that French boy had given her with his number.

"It was super fantastic and such a great little nighttime party that was for sure! Whee!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed happily as she skipped really high.

"You might want to calm down some, Pinkie Pie, we need to be able to sleep so we can go to school tomorrow and that means we need a good night's sleep. Still it was a very nice adventure today, I'll agree to that." Sunset concurred as she memorized the last detail for her sketch later

"It was just awesome being here at this college which we'll all really take by storm and really give it the kind of awesome coolness that is us when we come here ourselves! That's a promise!" Rainbow Dash vowed as she pumped her fist in the air.

"I think it be nice if we all could go to school here one day so we could stay friends forever. Since none of us attend the same school till we all came too Canterlot High. I sure wouldn't want to graduate and then be torn apart by going so far away we lose touch and stop being friends." Fluttershy voiced in a scared tone.

"I'm sure no matter where we go in this life after high school or where we all end up going for college, Fluttershy we'll remain friends for life. I'm sure of that fact. I'm still new to this friendship thing myself, but I don't think true friends ever drift apart no matter what happens. That I'm at least sure of." Twilight replied with confidence.

"I'm pretty sure, Twilight is correct in that assessment, besides I don't think any of you seven would have a hard time being accepted into my family college if you did chose to come here. We do accept a lot of people and I'm sure if you all really wanted to come here after we all get our diploma at CHS then we all end up here if that's what you desire." Fledge assured them as he yawned once and flipped his long hair over his shoulder.

"Well, ladies and gentleman, I know we're all plum tuckered out and all, but I've got an idea for some fun and it be a great chance for all of us to hang out." Applejack started to say and everyone looked at her.

"What's your idea, Applejack, dear?"

"Well, Rarity, seeing how we all got a kick out of tonight's stargazing display and if what that girl Starlight said is true that the weather be perfect this Saturday I suggest we all get together at my apple farm this Saturday for a barbecue and then watch this celestial phenomenon show from my place. As I don't think we'll get a better place to watch it from. So how about that? Sound like an idea?"

"Sounds perfect! Let's do it!" and everyone high fived and all the girls except Twilight ponied up.

It seemed they were ponying up even more not just when they showed their truest self and exemplified their personal element but when they showed the truest forms of friendship. So their personal magic was still growing and changing.

Though Twilight still looked a bit bummed she still hadn't transformed and was wondering if she would ever pony up herself. She was touched by magic and she just felt she should be able to pony up like her princess self did but she hadn't and it was bothering her. Still she smiled and they got in the car and hurried home.

School went by fast that week and it wasn't long before the whole town of Canterlot knew about this upcoming meteor shower and the school was willing to give anyone who wanted to give a report on it extra credit in science class.

Whether this was supposed to be more of an incentive to watch this amazing natural phenomenon or just to raise test scores or a bit of both was unclear. Though it looked like all the students were making plans to go find some place to watch the star show and also get extra credit at the same time.

Finally Saturday rolled around and everyone was raring to go and head to Applejack's to start with cookout then do some stargazing. However they made one unexpected stop before going to Applejack's.

Sunset had wanted to bring a few of her mom's encyclopedias and borrow her best digital camera to help document the shower. Also her mom wanted to help drive them over to Applejack's because she had a lot of extra goodies for the cookout as well as a few other things to make the evening memorable.

So for the first time ever all the other girls were at Sunset's apartment and while her parents entertained her friends for a few moments she quickly wrote a quick letter Princess Twilight and Prince Fledge about her plans for the evening.

"Dear Princess Twilight and Prince Fledge,

I hope you'd a good time at the Ponyville spa to relax and unwind after having that terrible spat of yours. Things are going well on this side of things. As I mentioned in an earlier letter which you've yet to reply to we went to the college Fledge's family built and Twilight's brother attends on Monday.

I believe I we met some people you're very familiar with. As one mentioned to be a very studious girl by a guy who caught Rarity's eye was Moon Dancer which I know you mentioned Twilight you went out of your way to make up to her for being a bad friend.

I'll admit I really admire you doing that, Twilight. Seeing how far you've come as a person and really seeing what you use to be to who you are now and how you knew you had to make it right.

I also met your housemate's human counterpart and her best friend who here is also her boyfriend. So yeah met Starlight and Sunburst. Starlight came off as bit of a stuck-up know-it-all and Sunburst was nice but soft-spoken.

Though once Fledge made her apologize both Starlight and Sunburst were much nicer and the ones to really inform us about tonight's meteor shower which I'm on the way to Applejack's to watch.

We're having a cookout first then we'll watch the show. Also for extra credit we'll be writing a report and documenting tonight's events and even though I'm an A+ students as of course your human self is as well, Twilight a little extra credit never hurts.

Well must be going. I'm hoping my parents haven't embarrassed me with everyone else here. You never known with parents. No matter how cool and fun they can be at times you never known when they could embarrass you.

And while no-one died of embarrassment you can come awfully close and also for the youths of this world image can be everything also if your social life does manage to get ruined in some way you're pretty much dead because at our age a social life is everything!

Gotta go my mom is calling me saying she's ready to take us over to Sweet Apple Acres.

So see you both later and have a pleasant evening where you guys are and I'll let you know if any magic happens here tonight. With the stars out there will be a lot of wishing going on. So who knows what magic may happen?

As they say here "Starlight, star bright the first star I see tonight, I wish I may I wish I might have the wish I wish tonight!"

I don't know what the other girls will be wishing for tonight.

My wish?

My wish is simply to have a good time and just live in the moment of love, family and friendship. Gotta go!

Bye!"

Well Sunset hugged her dad goodbye as her mom took her and her friends over to Applejack's and it looked like her parents had impressed all her friends and it seemed they did want all the girls to either come over for a sleepover in the future or at least dinner to which they all said they'd think about it and wait till Sunset at least said okay.

They got to Applejack's home quickly and Sunfire was nice enough to help unload all the food and other amenities they'd need for the night including a pretty powerful telescope that one of her co-workers was letting them borrow for the night.

The girls thanked Sunfire for all her help and she agreed she come pick them up later and drive them all home after the show was over. Then while everyone had their backs turned she and Sunset hugged each other tightly and whispered "I love you and have a good time" to each other and she kissed her forehead before leaving them.

The only one who saw this was Twilight who didn't say anything. She just grabbed Sunset's arm and they hurried over to where Big Mac and Applejack were already starting the cookout and Apple Bloom was inside with Granny Smith and her friends making things from these weird apple the family called "Zap Apples"

Well needless to say the girls were having quite a little party going on. They played some volleyball which of course Rainbow Dash accidently cheated at by ponying up unexpectedly to really spike the ball.

As they at the great food that even Fledge helped prepare they listen to some music from a Rara CD and then they started to have a little dancing going on. Which everyone was having fun and Twilight and Fledge really enjoyed as they had their first dance together. The music went back and forth from pop and energetic to a few slow and romantic songs.

It was about this time it was finally getting dark and the shower wasn't going to happen till about 8:38 so they had time to just gaze up at the moon and stars themselves.

Sunset said according to her mom's book on astronomy there were 88 official constellation, and that largest constellation by area was Hydra which takes up 3.16% of the sky and the smallest one by area was the Crux that only took up 0.17%

That the word 'constellation' comes from the Latin word meaning "Set of Stars". Also depending on the time of the year determined what constellations were visible as they traveled like the sun east to west and that even though mini constellations called asterism are visible they are not counted as true ones."

She went on to read some more interesting facts about the weather of the other planets and some facts about their moons and was just about to explain why they bothered to make a fuss and change Pluto's status from a planet to a dwarf one when the show began!

Everyone became silent as what seemed like thousands of shooting stars fell from the skies above and they saw different colors and remembered what Starlight had said back at the college on Monday about what determined the color of a shooting star.

And while everyone was spellbound by the dazzling star show they still managed to collect and record what they all needed for the group report on this weekend astronomical phenomenon.

Then it became obvious everyone was making wishes on all the stars falling. Again Sunset had no idea what almost all the other girls were wishing for on their stars, though she'd some idea based on how well she knew her friends. Though she at least had a strong inkling as to what Fledge and Twilight were wishing.

For a moment it looked like all eyes were locked on the heavens and then very slowly Fledge's copper eyes and Twilight's lilac eyes fell upon each other and they could feel their heartbeats speed up and yet still beat in sync with the other's.

They'd been holding hands this whole time but now they're looking right at each other and they held the other's face in their hands. Then very slowly they eased their way to the other and finally at the exact moment they kissed for the first time and explosion in the sky that was very similar to what happened when Twilight of Equestria became a princess happened and then as they continued to kiss something else happened.

While everyone was spellbound by the stars they did see for a split second them kissing and looked overjoyed at the kiss for happening and then the streaking across the sky was that comet and they all looked up and felt honored to see this blazing beauty streak across the sky and it was just perfect.

They all managed to get both a video and a digital pictures of the comet and falling stars and they also got a picture of Fledge and Twilight's first kiss to commemorate the occasion.

Much later that night they're all back at their homes and dreaming away after such a magical night and hoping all those wishes they'd made came true. For Twilight and Fledge their first kiss seemed to cement the fact that they're now officially a couple and did really feel sparks fly with each other!

Sunset was sleeping soundly and dreaming happily when something flashing caused her to wake up at 3:00 in the morning. Grumbling a little she turned and saw she'd gotten a response from Princess Twilight.

"I know that Equestria and the Human World are two separate worlds and all but we've got to figure out what the time zone difference is so I can get a full night's sleep!" she muttered annoyingly as she opened her journal and read the following.

"Dear Sunset Shimmer,

We do again apologize for not getting back to you sooner, but as we're sure you understand we all get busy and for us? Life in Equestria is never dull long and as the Princess of Friendship and Prince of Dreams we get very busy! So we do apologize for not getting back to you sooner!

Though, I'll admit too you, Sunset we're not making ourselves have more work than we need to do or at least we don't try too.

Rarity finally got Applejack to go to spa and while there Applejack figured out they were giving themselves more problems than they need. So she fixed the spa and we all helped her solve the same problem on the farm so she could unwind with Rarity and surprisingly Rainbow Dash at the spa. So that's one problem fixed.

We had another problem that we had to help aid Fluttershy with. Her little brother Zephyr Breeze who too put it politely was a lazy bum who wouldn't even try to do anything.

He was given simple jobs and still didn't do anything. From dying Rarity's fabrics to washing Twilight's windows and he even messed up helping me in my palace gardens. All I asked him to do was take the gardening tools back to the shed and bring me some flowerpots and he didn't even do that.

Fluttershy eventually helped him face his extreme fear of failure. I think this phobia is call Atychiphobia. We'll have to recheck the dictionary but I believe that's the word I looked up to put a name too it.

So he's now trying which is a relief to Fluttershy and her parents. Though Rainbow Dash still wants to zap him in the flank since he's so deluded in thinking she likes him! Ugh! Rainbow Dash even told me she was going to zap him in the flank if he ever tried to flirt with her again! I've known Rainbow Dash long enough that when she says she's going to do something she'll do it!

My wife does know her friends very well as I know the creatures I lived with for so long. Though I'd like to think Helena knows me better than anyone else.

Hey!

You didn't let me finish, Twilight, I was gonna say Helena knows me better than anyone else except my beloved and beautiful wife.

Okay that's better! Well we can't say much more because we've got a lot of work to do with the Starlight of this world. We're going to try start getting the Cutie Map to work again since I'm sure there are many more friendship missions for us to do and I feel strongly that it won't just be me and my five best friends. I'm beyond certain that also that Fledge will be called to help solve a friendship problem sometime in the future.

I know you didn't see my cutie mark when I first showed up because I was still being protected by my parents magic and we had yet to fully recombine the Golden Sovereignty back with the rest of Equestria so some magic was out of whack till everything was back in magical aliment and equilibrium.

Also it did come back after I kicked Starlight in face when she tried to steal yours and your friends' cutie marks.

Yes I remember just before she zapped us with a very powerful magical blast you literally kicked her in the face sending her flying and screamed at her "No-pony steals my wife's cutie mark!"

That was one of the few moments I've ever seen you angry but it did show me just how far the depths of your love for me is.

Well my special talent is protecting dreamers and their dreams and my dreams include you, Twilight. So having my special talent really come back when everything else was once again normal helped a great deal and now my mark is on my flank once more.

I love you, Fledge Dreamwings.

I love you too, Twilight Sparkle.

Well hope you're doing well otherwise and we'll speak again really soon, Sunset For now we got to get to work on the Cutie Map! So see you later!

Love your friends, Princess Twilight and Prince Fledge!"

Smiling contently she closed the journal and hugged it tightly. "Love is a magic all its own and there is a lot to still learn about all kinds of magic. Still looks like that wish of true love and a romantic night transcended this world and went back to Equestira cause I can tell they're most likely kissing in Twilight's palace right now like they're kissing by starlight only a few hours ago! Love is so grand!"

With that she put the magical journal back on her nightstand and hugged the Alicorn doll of herself tighter and began to dream happy loving dreams of her own.

It had been one magical night for sure!
