All of downtown Ponyville was done up in little glittering lights that threw small dots of rainbow colors across the snow. It was just starting to get dark and soon the only light left would be from the small colorful lights. Had the castle been completed it would have been lit up in a brilliant display, but as it was, no one wanted to be reminded of the tragedy that befell it and it was covered in darkness on the hilltop.
Sherbet Expolosion bounced up the street, occasionally stopping and running back to chatter excitedly at Kail, and then bounding up ahead again. Kailani walked much more calmly to where the main festivities were being held, with a large plate of cookies to share. Her eyes caught on all the sparkling lights and she smiled, it was almost like home.

(con't from appartments)
Donner and Stella entered the brightly lit streets. Stella was busy marveling at the decorations while the green stallion stepped up to Kail. "Yo, were heard there wuz gonna be a party up in her so I guess this is it. So where is everybody?" He stopped his street-talk babbling and blinked for a seccond at the seafoam green mare. "Yo, you look familiar. Have we met befo'?" He said looking at her suspiciously.

Kail laughed softly at this brutish stallion, "I do believe you showed up at one of the nursery's get togethers earlier this season." She turned around to find the little orange filly and make sure she wasn't getting into any trouble yet, then turned back, "its still early, Im sure there will be crowds before long."
Sherbet bounded up to Stella, "Happy Fest Eve!" She had a cookie balancing precariously on her head, "would you like a cookie? Kail made them, with our help of course." She beamed triumphantly - the cookies had gone over much smoother than the pancakes.

"Happy Fest Eve to you too!" Stella looked at the foal and grinned at the sight of the cookie. She was such a sucker for sweets. "Sure, I'll have a cookie! Thanks!" She said as she eagerly picked up the cookie and began to nibble it and walk over to see what the other two were talking about. "Yeah!" Donner exclaimed to Kail. "I remeber that night when you all wuz gettin bu-" WHAP! Stella had covered his mouth with her hoof with a rather peeved expression as she knew he was about to say "buzzed" referring to the spiked punch everyone was drinking. "In case you haven't noticed, Don, there's children present." She said removing her hoof from Donner's now frowning mouth.

Star Swirl trotted up to see the excitement. "Hi everyone! Happy Fest Eve!" she cried, delighted with all the lights. Yet, festival or not, she had her dagger close--you never know what might happen. *** Lilia hurried through the streets of Ponyville, trying to find a little trinket of hers. Paying no attention to the festivities, she picked up a tiny pendant in the shape of a heart with a rose and a rainbow engraved on opposite sides. They signified the love her parents had had for her, what probabally dissapeared once she left. The mare continued walking while trying to place the piece of jewelry back into her purse. Suddenly she bumped into something. Looking up, she realised she had ran right into another pony. It was Stellaluna. "S-s-sorry ma'am," she murmered her apologies. "I...I was just looking for something."

(cont. from the toy shop) Dazzle Surprise saw Star Swirl and walked over to her. "Hi again." She said to Star. "Happy Fest Eve!" Dazzle said, grinning. She saw some other ponies around her. "Oh, I'm sorry, have we met? I'm Dazzle Surprise!" She said with a pretty smile. Fluffy meowed. "Oh, this is my cat, Fluffy. I just bought her." Dazzle Surprise said, smiling. Fluffy rubbed up against Dazzle, purring.

"Happy Fest Eve! Happy Fest Eve!" Razz was stopping to exclaim well wishes to everyone he ran across while Silverfall strode quietly beside him. Set trailed behind them, feeding off the silver mare's anger and despair.

Kail blushed quickly at the mention of the last party the nursery had held, and of the spiked punch. How was she to know? She had never drank before.
Quickly, Kail turned from Donner to the other ponies who had started to arrive, "Happy Fest Eve!" She didn't want to cold shoulder the stallion, but she didn't feel like trying to remember that night (although most of it was a swimming blur).

"Happy Fest Eve!" The two green ponies exclaimed just as the others were arriving. Stella grinned like an excited foal at this. More ponies mean more things to do, they might even possibly fest have games, which were always her favorite part of that time of year. She wasn't too keen on talking to all these unfamiliar faces. Despite how she hid it by plastering smiles upon her face, she was shy to the marrow. She then felt something bump against her backside and it took her totally off-guard. She whirled around and saw Lilia. She heard the peg appaoligize and she lossened up. "Hey, it's no problem."She said warmly. She couldn't think of anything else to say. "I donb't belive we've met. My name's Stellaluna. What's yours?"
Meanwhile Donner had discovered that once again his mouth led him to recive the cold shoulder. He tried to get her attention again as not to loose his chatting partner for the time being. "That kid ova there is cute. She yours?"

"Heya Dazzle!" Star replied, grinning so hard her face hurt. "Hi Fluffy. Never seen you before, you cute lil kitten." *** "Erm, Lilia, ma'am. But my family only calls me that," she gulped, realising she might choke up at any moment, "Everyone else calls me Lily."

Kail turned back with a warm smile and a soft laugh. "No, Sherbet is one of the nursery kids, but she has somewhat addopted me as her surrogate mother." She hoped he wouldn't ask where her real mother was, because Kail would rather stick to happier topics this evening.
"Im hardly old enough to be a mother," she winked, knowing that he probably thought she looked around 15 years old. She was 20, and acted around 40, but her young face still confused people sometimes.

Dazzle Surprise saw more ponies arriving. She just smiled. "So, how is everything, Star?" She asked Star Swirl.

A large cloud of smoke near Kail signified Dark's arival. As the wind blew away the smoke, the stallion stood and straitened his leather vest. He was out of his normal ninja garb for once, and looked rather good looking in his simple leather vest. "How's it hanging, Kail? Happy festival to you guys, by the way! Hey, wait a sec..."
Dark looked around before he rubbed his head. "Where the heck did Kenshin go?" His question was answered as a screaming Kenshin had a rather painful landing in a nearby snow bank, splatering the left side of Dark with snow. The samurai stormed out, the snow evaporateing from his body as he got burning hot nose to nose with Dark.
"WARN me next time you plan to do that, Dark! You could have killed me!" Dark grined at Kenshin. "Could have, but didn't!" Kenshin glared at him before he started tossing a snow ball up and down. "Um... Kenshin? What are you gona do with that snowball?" A few snow balls later, Dark looked like a snow pony.
Kenshin laughed while pointing at him. "HAH HAH!!! NOW YOUR FORGIVEN!!!" He only had a moment's worth of laughing before dark tackled him, and it procied to a brawling, both pummeling the crap out of each other, before they both fell into the hole Kenshin made. Moments later, their voices were heard echoing inside. "Kenshin?" "What?" "I prepose a truce for tonight. After all, there are going to be kids around!" "Okay, Ninja, but ONLY for the kids." "Then hows about we REALLY light things up, tradtion of the Red Sun's style?" "You mean-" "YEEEEEEEEAH BAAAABY!" They climbed out soon enough, at Kenshin tilted his head at Dark. "Why are you suddenly so happy?" Dark pat him on the head as he grinned. "Gotta enjoy life to the fullest, right?"

Dazzle Surprise looked at Dark and Kenshin and giggled. She turned back to Star. "Anyways."

(cont. from Sparkleworks Confections.) Mainsail walked along the sidewalk of Ponyville. She had already left her candy at her home. She saw Dazzle talking to Star. Mainsail walked over to her. "Hi Dazzle!" She said. "Hi Star!" Dazzle Surprise smiled. "Hiya Mainsail." Mainsail smiled. Suddenly, Mainsail didn't feel so good. She clutched her stomach. "Argh." She said. "I think the baby's coming." She said under her breath. Dazzle Surprise looked at Mainsail. "Oh my, we should get help." Dazzle said. She looked over at Star.
