Chapter 6: Summer Celebration (Part 1)

I'll quickly go over the next part of the plot here, otherwise, it might seem like I'm just adding words. ๑ U v U ๑

After Duocai and Ziyue left Sweet Apple Acres, Duocai, although wary of Yun Bao, was chatting with Ziyue about Canterlot and Nightmare Moon, which Ziyue had been worried about. She was still a bit careless and didn't notice Yun Bao rushing over.

Then she and Ziyue were both knocked into a mud pit, covered in mud.

Then Yun Bao pushed a thundercloud from the horizon, stomped on it, and they were drenched by the rain again.

After that, her hair became an afro, just like Bi Qi's.

However, Ziyue's hairstyle actually looked quite good.

Then they went to the celebration venue to check the auditorium's arrangements.

After that, Zhen Qi pulled her and Ziyue, wanting to style their hair. Although Duocai told Zhen Qi it was just for styling hair,

After Zhen Qi had chosen an outfit for Ziyue, she came over with a very beautiful red dress.

She said, "My dear, ever since you came back, I've had a ve~ry brilliant idea in my head. I made this overnight. Won't you please try it on for me, please?" Zhen Qi stared at Duocai with her bright, watery eyes.

Duocai originally refused, but in the end, she was held down and made to put it on.

As for why she didn't run away, it was because Ziyue, for some reason, also used magic to hold Duocai in place...

Finally, she escaped when Zhen Qi went to find a red gem to replace the emerald on Ziyue's current outfit.

"Ziyue, why did you suddenly use magic to hold me for Zhen Qi?" Duocai looked at Ziyue with a helpless expression as they walked.

"Duocai, I have to say that outfit really suits you. You look really good in it," Ziyue said, looking at Duocai apologetically.

"Yes, Duocai, you really look super good in it, like a Princess, though still not as good as Zhen Qi," Sui Long said, looking at Duocai, but halfway through, he became entranced by Zhen Qi's beauty.

"Sui Long." Ziyue first glared at Sui Long, then said to Duocai with an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, Duocai, I didn't mean to."

"It's fine, I forgive you, but I have one request," Duocai shook her head and said to Ziyue.

"What request?" Ziyue looked at Duocai curiously.

"How about you teach me magic? I only know one or two spells so far," Duocai said, looking at Ziyue.

"Easy peasy, Ziyue knows a ton of magic, she's super powerful," Sui Long, sitting on Ziyue's back, replied after hearing Duocai's request.

"Sui Long." Ziyue rolled her eyes at Sui Long after hearing what he said, then said to Duocai, "No problem, leave teaching you how to use magic to me."

Then they went to find Fluttershy, which was pretty much like in the story. Fluttershy's attention was completely on Sui Long. Duocai introduced Fluttershy to Ziyue on the way, and then they walked to the Library entrance.

"Alright, girls, talking and talking, we're home. This is my place in Ponyville. Look, the little dragon is so sleepy, he needs to go to bed," Ziyue said, looking at Fluttershy and Duocai with an apologetic expression.

Sui Long wanted to say he wasn't sleepy in the middle, but before he could finish, Ziyue tossed him off her back.

"See, he's so sleepy he's stumbling."

Before Ziyue could finish, Fluttershy suddenly went over, hugged Sui Long, and said, "Poor little thing, I need to put him to sleep quickly," and walked into the Library.

Ziyue watched Fluttershy go in, then quickly rushed in and pushed Fluttershy out.

"Yes, yes, leave it to me, good night," and closed the door.

Duocai watched Ziyue try to close the door and quickly tried to call out to Ziyue, wanting to say that she also lived in the Library.

But it was too late, Ziyue had already closed the door.

At the door, Duocai looked at Fluttershy, then at the Library door.

Then Duocai took out the Library key from behind her. Hmm, I have a key.

"Let's go, Fluttershy, let's go to the party Bi Qi prepared for Ziyue," Duocai said to Fluttershy.

"Mmm, I can't wait to see the little dragon," Fluttershy said to Duocai.

After Duocai came in, she heard Bi Qi telling Ziyue why she was throwing him a surprise party.

Then, after Bi Qi saw Duocai and Fluttershy come in, she started introducing her friends to Ziyue.

Then, when she mentioned Duocai, she said to Ziyue,

"Ziyue, this is Xuanli Duocai, the pony who was with me when I saw you. I originally wanted to take her around Ponyville, but after I saw you, I went 'Ahh~' and came to prepare a party for you. I think Duocai knows what I went to do, and then Duocai was with you, but I'm telling you, Ziyue, don't you think Duocai is very cute?" Bi Qi pulled Duocai in front of Ziyue and said.

"Ah~ yes, very cute," Ziyue looked at Duocai, who Bi Qi had suddenly pushed in front of her, and subconsciously answered Bi Qi's question.

"But I'm telling you, Duocai is a male pony, isn't that shocking?" Bi Qi stood up and framed Duocai with her two hooves, saying to Ziyue.

"Hmm, what's so shocking about that? It's just a male pony, right?

...Wait, Bi Qi, I don't think I heard clearly, did you say Duocai is a male pony?" Ziyue's expression was initially helpless when she heard what Bi Qi said, but after realizing it, she looked at Duocai in shock.

She subconsciously looked at Duocai again; no matter how she looked, she was a small female pony!

"Hmm, I guess I didn't tell you about my situation. Ahem, let me reintroduce myself. My name is Xuanli Duocai. Don't let my appearance fool you into thinking I'm a small female pony; I'm actually a male Unicorn." Duocai listened to Bi Qi and Ziyue's words, then thought for a moment that she seemed to have forgotten to tell Ziyue and the others about her situation, so she re-introduced herself to Ziyue and Sui Long.

Ziyue and Sui Long stared at Duocai in front of them, dumbfounded. Hmm,

Alright, Ziyue felt she needed to calm down.

She picked up the drink on the nearby table, poured it into a cup, and took a big gulp.

Then her face instantly turned bright red.

Then she instantly transformed into a fiery pony and ran upstairs to the second floor.

At this moment, Sui Long picked up the drink and looked at it.

"Chili sauce?" Sui Long said in surprise, looking at the drink in his claw.

At this moment, Bi Qi pressed Sui Long's claw, pouring it onto a cupcake, then picked it up and ate it.

Duocai watched Ziyue run upstairs, then saw Bi Qi pick up and eat the cupcake covered in chili.

"Bi Qi, don't you think it's spicy?" Duocai had felt that Bi Qi's taste buds were very strong when watching the anime; she would just eat many foods that other ponies dared not eat.

"Why? It's delicious," Bi Qi finished eating, heard Duocai ask her, turned to look at the other ponies, and said as if it were obvious.

"Come on, friends, let's get hyped! The party has just begun!" Bi Qi pulled out her party cannon.

With a bang, it shot out a large amount of confetti.

-

"Ziyue, Bi Qi and them are starting the pin-the-tail game, do you want to play?" Sui Long, with a lampshade on his head, said to Ziyue, who was curled up in bed.

"No, all the ponies in Ponyville have gone crazy! Do you know what time it is?" Ziyue shouted at Sui Long.

"It's the night before the Summer Celebration! Ponies don't sleep, otherwise, they'll miss the Princess raising the sun. Just relax, Ziyue, it's a party!" Sui Long said happily to Ziyue as he turned to leave.

"Nagging, nagging, so annoying!" Ziyue said angrily and helplessly after throwing off the blanket covering her head.

"I thought I'd have time to study the harmony source here. I was truly, too foolish. These trivial matters of making friends are really annoying me to death!" Ziyue said angrily, (` ^ ´)

Ziyue rolled over on the bed and saw the moon outside the window.

Then she stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the moon in the sky, saying, "Legend says that a thousand years from today, the stars will help her escape. She will bring eternal night. I hope the Princess is right. I hope this really is just a legend."

"Come on, Ziyue, everyone's getting ready to watch the sunrise." Just then, Sui Long suddenly pushed open the door and shouted to Ziyue.

-

Inside the grand hall of the ceremony, the ponies of Ponyville were all waiting to see the Princess raise the sun.

"Aren't you excited? I'm so excited too! I've never been this excited, except for the first time I saw you, Ziyue, and Duocai come here, but this time is even more amazing!" Bi Qi said excitedly in front of Duocai and Ziyue.

"Yes, Bi Qi, I'm very excited too! It's my first time seeing Princess Celestia," Duocai replied to Bi Qi, excitedly tapping her hooves in small steps.

Then, amidst some music, the mayor began to explain the origin of the Summer Celebration.

...Let us welcome Princess Celestia!" After the mayor finished speaking, he pointed his hoof towards the balcony above.

At this moment, Zhen Qi pulled open the curtain up there.

But Princess Celestia was not behind the curtain.

"Oh oh, hide-and-seek, I'm the best at it!" Bi Qi said excitedly, looking at the empty balcony.

Duocai looked at the empty balcony, knowing that Princess Luna had imprisoned Princess Celestia, but she didn't say anything, as there was nothing he could do now.

"Your Highness is gone!" Zhen Qi looked behind the curtain, then said loudly in a shocked tone.

"Oh, what a good hiding spot, ah~" Bi Qi finished the first half of her sentence with an admiring tone, then started screaming loudly.

"Oh~ no," Ziyue felt something was wrong, and said, looking down, at a loss.
