Author's Notes:

Well, here we go. 1st fic ever. This probably sucks but, here I am, posting it anyway.Don't judge too harshly. I actually came up with this concept in a dream so it probably doesn't even make sense. And yes, I dream out concepts for MLP fanfictions. Sue me. And I want to just say that all these chapters will be very short so don't expect any long ones.

It was a warm, summer day in Ponyville. As usual, nopony was rushing or feeling stressed. Well, that is, all except one.
Twilight had just gotten out of her bed and was sprinting towards her closet,"Gotta pack, gotta pack, gotta pack!" She and her friends were going to visit the Crystal Empire that day, and for the first time in forever, they had nowhere to go, nothing to do, no imminent danger. Just as Twilight began to pack, a knock came at her door. "Come in!" she yelled, still digging through her closet. The door opened. It was none other than Flash Sentry, the stallion Twilight had particular feelings towards him since they first met. He had been transferred to Twilight's castle guard(Thanks to Cadence) and had been very helpful. "Good morning your Highness," he bowed.

"Please, call me Twilight. What are you here for?"

"I heard you yelling and panicking. Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. I just was having a hard time finding my crown,"

"It's right here your Highness- I mean Twilight-I mean-," Twilight chuckled. Many ponies got into the habit of calling her 'Your Highness' but Flash always never seemed to remember. Flash chuckled a bit too. "Thank you, Flash." Flash left the room with a tinge of red on his cheeks. Just then, Starlight stepped into the room.

"Were you just flirting with Flash?"

"Uh, no, n-"

"Well then what's this?" She played a magical recording of Twilight's interaction with Flash.

Twilight rubbed the back of her neck. "Okay, maybe I was kind of flirting but still, can you blame me?"

"It’s fine, I get it. It’s about time you got somepony."

Speaking of time, Twilight looked at a clock on the wall.
"Oh no! We have to get on the train in an hour and I'm not even done packing yet!" With that, she rushed back to her closet.

1 hour later

Twilight and Starlight met the others at the train station. "Where were you guys! You almost missed the train!" shouted Rainbow Dash.

"Let's just say somepony tried to flirt with a certain member of the guard," remarked Starlight. Twilight blushed.

"I was not!" she protested.

"Oh come on Twilight, you've had a crush on him since you first saw him!" Rainbow Dash almost screamed.

"Oh really then, what’s going on with you and Soarin, hmm?"

"Umm, does it even matter?"

"Exactly,"

"Hey, we're already dating!"

"Sorry to interrupt your discussion, but yall' gonna get on the train or what?" Applejack beckoned for them.

"This discussion is not over!" called Rainbow Dash from inside the train.

Later on the train
Applejack and Fluttershy seemed to be the only calm ones. Pinkie was even jumpier than usual, Twilight was jumping in circles around the train, Rainbow Dash and Rarity were pacing nervously, and Starlight was, well, they weren't quite sure what. Her mood seemed to be a mix of excitement, anxiety, fear, and happiness.

"Gee Twilight, I haven't seen you this excited in years. What's going on?" asked Applejack.

Rainbow Dash gasped."You finally got over your habit of singing freak out arias?!" Everypony looked at Rainbow Dash."What? It's not a good habit!"

"No, I finally can go to the library and this time, the fate of the Crystal Empire isn't at stake! "

"What about you and Rarity? What are you so nervous about?" asked Applejack.

Rainbow Dash intruded, "I'm facing off against my rival, Lightning Dust,"

"And I, am having a, probably much more dignified meeting with my enemy, Suri Polomare,"

"But no matter what, SHE"S GOING DOWN!" they yelled at the exact same time. They looked at each other sideways.

"What about you Pinkie? What are you so excited about?"

"Joe's Donuts is opening a new shop and it's right next to Vinyl Scratch's Super Duper Party Pony Palace and its gonna have special new flavors and then I can be the first customer and get a coupon!" Indeed, they were all looking forward to great things(And donuts.). Little did they know, however, that one of them would make a discovery that would change her life.
