==Story==
===Part 1===
Well-studied but largely unsocial {{FIM|Twilight Sparkle}} reads about [[Nightmare Moon]], who was prophesized to return after a thousand years of banishment. Twilight, realizing that the thousandth anniversary of the banishment would be tomorrow, informs her mentor {{FIM|Princess Celestia}}. Celestia instead sends Twilight to [[Ponyville]], tasking her with supervising the [[Summer Sun Celebration]] and making some friends.
Well-studied but largely unsocial {{FIM|Twilight Sparkle}} saw the signs of [[Nightmare Moon]], who once co-ruled Equestria as {{FIM|Princess Luna}} with her sister, {{FIM|Princess Celestia}}, who now ruled the nation by her lonesome, return from [[Twilight's dorm|her dorm]] in [[Canterlot]] and reported them to {{FIM|Princess Celestia}}, though the [[monarch]] believed Twilight was misunderstanding the signs and sent her to organize the [[Summer Sun Celebration]] in [[Ponyville]], a small town (or city, or village...it varies). While there, Twilight and {{FIM|Spike}}, her ever faithful companion would stay in [[Golden Oak Library]]. In the town, they were t check in on five ponies and their progress, the strange {{FIM|Pinkie Pie}}, the cocky {{FIM|Rainbow Dash}}, the friendly {{FIM|Applejack}}, the busy {{FIM|Rarity}}, and the shy...{{FIM|Fluttershy}}. Each encounter was stressful for Twilight, though interestingly, pretty great for Spike (see [[#notes]]).
 
Twilight goes around town to meet with those working on the Celebration: {{FIM|Applejack}}, in charge of food, introduces Twilight to her extended family; [[Rainbow Dash]], in charge of weather, shows off flying tricks and messes up Twilight's [[mane]]; {{FIM|Rarity}}, in charge of decoration, subjects Twilight to a makeover; [[Fluttershy]], in charge of music, is fascinated by Twilight's talking dragon {{FIM|Spike}}. She returns to [[Golden Oaks Library]] to research Nightmare Moon, but is met by a surprise welcome party organized by {{FIM|Pinkie Pie}}.
The day turned into night and the aforementioned Pinkie Pie threw a party at Twilight's home without her knowing to welcome her to the town. Though a kind gesture, Twilight didn't care for this and grew upset, but once again began to notice the signs of Nightmare Moon's return. Later, at the [[Summer Sun Celebration (Year 1)|Summer Sun Celebration proper]], the frightening Nightmare Moon appeared before the ponies, kidnapping the princess.
 
Twilight and the residents of Ponyville go to the [[Ponyville Town Hall|Town Hall]] to watch Celestia raise the sun—however, Nightmare Moon takes her place. Nightmare Moon declares that "the night shall last forever."
 
===Part 2===
Twilight, panicked, returns to the library to search for more information about the [[Elements of Harmony]], which had been used to banish Nightmare Moon the first time around. According to ''[[The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide]]'', the Elements are located in the [[Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters]], deep in the [[Everfree Forest]]. She, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie venture to the Forest; Nightmare Moon creates a series of obstacles (a falling cliff face, an injured [[manticore]], a group of scary-looking trees, a [[Steven Magnet|distressed sea serpent]], and an offer for Rainbow to join the "[[Shadowbolts]],") but the group gets through each in a manner that highlights an element of each pony's personality.
Twilight with the five other ponies she met embark on high adventure into the [[Everfree Forest]], a dark and mysterious place where time doesn't seem to work right (see [[#notes]]). Throughout their trials in the forest, they meet many foes, though most turned into friends, such as [[Manny Rooar]], [[Steven Magnet]], and the {{FIM|Shadowbolts}}. Eventually, they reached the [[Castle of Two Sisters]] and defeated Nightmare Moon with the [[Elements of Harmony]], reuniting the two sisters and bringing about a new era in Equestrian history.
 
The group makes its way to the Castle, finding five of the Elements. Twilight tries to use magic to summon the sixth Element, but is interrupted by Nightmare Moon. After a brief battle, Nightmare Moon destroys the Elements. Twilight quickly realizes that each of her new friends embodies the Elements (Applejack being Loyalty, Fluttershy being Kindness, Pinkie Pie being Laughter, Rarity being Generosity, and Rainbow Dash being Loyalty) and that she herself embodied Magic.
 
The new avatars of the elements activate their powers, shooting a beam of rainbow-colored magic at Nightmare Moon. Celestia returns to find that the defeated Nightmare Moon had reverted back to her sister, {{FIM|Princess Luna}}. At another Pinkie party, Twilight Sparkle decides that she wants to remain in Ponyville, and Celestia tasks her with researching friendship and reporting her findings.
