Tiana Taylor and her friends had come to Celestia for a visit, and today, Annabelle Linton was with her at an amusement park.
The girl had boundless energy; Annabelle couldn't keep up.
Annabelle Linton laughed helplessly. "Can you slow down a little?"
"If we're slow, we'll be late!" Tiana Taylor exclaimed, excitedly pulling her forward in a rush.
Annabelle Linton had no choice but to follow.
The farther they walked, the louder the commotion grew. A cacophony of screams and cheers erupted, impossibly lively.
The crowd was as thick as if a celebrity had arrived. Annabelle could just barely make out what looked like a stage up ahead, with music playing.
All along the path, costumed characters dressed as animals handed out balloons, creating a festive, holiday-like atmosphere.
"They're here."
His friend said to Aaron Wyatt, "They're coming."
