Summer Thoughts

Princess Celestia ditched her carriage and descended using her own wings. She enjoyed the sensation of feeling the morning breeze caressing her wings, the morning sun flowing through her mane; for a second in time, she was one with her sun.

She finally placed her hooves in the ground and the dry, cold of the grass, still damped for the morning breeze brought her back to reality.

“Howdy Princess!”

“Good morning Applejack.”

“Hahaha! It´ Applebloom ma´am!” the light yellow mare said, laughing out loud and adjusted her Stetson, which fit her head perfectly nowdays.

"Oh right. I keep forgetting..." Celestia said with a small trace of sadness. "I came here to oversee the preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration."

"O´ course. We´ve been working all morning like mules! No offense."

"None taken." said anearbyy mule.

"I´m sure everything will be splendid." Celestia said.

"It better be, ah´ve the entire town runnign around. Scoots being cleaning the clouds and Sweetie has all the birds ready for the song and..."

But Celestia had stop listening and instead she was looking the quaint town of Ponyville. In just a few years the town had drastically changed and Celestia had troubles trying to remember the names of places and ponies. She kept searching for one particular building but the newest ones were so tall she couldn´t find it. Then her vision was covered by a wall of pink...

"What in tarnation?"

Before Apple Bloom end up covered in frost cake, Celestia levitated the cake away.

Apple Bloom put her hat back on and yelled at the two baker ponies who almost dropped the giant tower of marshmallow and marzipan.

"Pumpkin! Pound! What were yah two thinking?!"

The pegasus and the unicorn took turns blaming each other.

"Enough! Ah don´ wanna hear it! Now go before ah tell Twist on yah two!"

Threatened with her boss finding out, the twins grabbed the cake, apologize to the Princess and ran off.

"Ah swear that since the day towse two learned tah walk they do nothing but cause troubles."

Celestia chuckled but then her sight found what she was looking for.

"The library looks very different. So many ponies, most of them colts and fillies..:" Celestia said.

"Well Spike wanted ta take it into a different direction. Guess it is popular..."Apple Bloom said, scratching her head. "Ah still don´ understand a thing about them darn comic-books!"

Celestia levitated the "Mare-Do-Well/Daring-Do 75 pages spectacular" and found the art pretty good.

"Uh Princess..."

"Yes, Apple Bloom?"

"This year celebration...it won´t be like the last one, right?"

Celestia playfully pull her hat down. "Luna promised not to take over the world this time."

Apple Bloom sighed relieved while Celestia prepared to take flight again.

"I better go back to Canterlot. Tomorrow night will be a busy one."

Celestia took a final look at Ponyville, many memories assaulting her like a unscheduled summer rain.

"It´ awfully quiet without them, right Princess?" Apple Bloom said.

"Yes, I noticed." Before she took flight, Celestia had a final word to say. "You´ve been doing a splendid job...Mayor."

Apple Bloom smiled and tilted her hat to the Princess. As she watched the Princess disappear in the summer sky, she couldn't help but repeat a catchphrase from her older sister.

"Woah nelly..."
