*outside of the range of Canterlot Castle, Twilight, Spike, Dusk and Barbra are flying at a rapid pace*
Twilight/Dusk: [panting in worry as they reach Canterlot]
*they meet the Mane 5 and Colt 5 at the gate and all rush in*
*as they're running/flying*
Fluttershy: *relieved* Oh, good. We're all here.
Twilight: *concerned* So everypony got an urgent summons to the castle with no explanation?
Pinkie: *smiles* Yup! I just love a good mysterious summons.
Bubble- *smiles* What's it about? Do you think it's a surprise party? Hey! Why are we running?
Dusk: *worried* Because something could be terribly wrong! Somepony turned bad, another evil creature back for revenge?
Applejack/AJ: *arches eyebrows* Don't you think you're bein' a little paranoid?
Dusk- *looks at them with an unamused glance* After everything we've been through, do you really want me to answer that?
AJ- *admits* Good point.
Twilight: *looks at them* Why else would the Royals send scrolls in such a hurry?
Rarity: *admits* Good point! They know better than to make us worry!
Elusive- *nods in concern*
Pinkie: Plus, I like it when you run so fast, the walls get all blurry!
Bubble- *seeing blurry walls* Wheeee!
Rainbow/Blitz: Race ya! *takes off ahead*
[Pinkie and Bubble are rolling there]
[door opens as they all rush in the throne room to see The Royal Siblings, Kibitz, and Raven at their sides]
Rarity/Elusive: [panting]
Spike/Barbra: [yelps as Pinkie and Bubble crash into them]
Celestia/Solaris: *calmly* Boys. Girls. Thank you so much for coming.
Twilight: *worried* What's wrong?
Dusk: *worried* What can we do?
Luna: *smiles* That's just it. Nothing's wrong!
Artemis- *smiles* Everything's perfect!
*Celestia and Solaris nods*
Applejack: *concerned* Did y'all call us down here just to tell us that?
Rarity: *to them* With all due respect, majesties, you might want to save your urgent summons for matters that are a bit more... well, urgent!
Elusive- *nods in concern*
Royals: [giggling calmly]
Artemis: *admits* Well, there is more to it. Equestria is enjoying its longest period of harmony in recent years.
Kibitz/Raven-*glances at each other*
Dusk- *scrunches his face in concern* (If you say so...)
Solaris: *calmly* And it's all thanks to you two, Twilight and Dusk. And your friends of course.
Spike/Barbra: *smirks* Who, us?
Rarity/Elusive: *smirks* Oh, pshaw.
Rainbow/Blitz: *smirks* It's about time you noticed!
Twilight/Dusk: *honored* *bows* Thank you!
Luna: *calmly* Because of your efforts, there has been less and less for us to do.
