     The crickets are chirping, everyone in the library are sleeping well almost everypony. Wolfie is peeking out the curtains looking at the moon.

Spike: [snore]

     Suddenly Twilight wakes up.

Twilight: [gasp] Spike, wake up. Wake up, wake up, it's Winter Wrap Up day!

Spike: Huh? Mommy?

Twilight: Winter Wrap Up!

Spike: You're not mommy.

Twilight: Spike, the first day of spring is tomorrow, so everypony in Ponyville needs to clean up winter. Now help me get ready.

Wolfie: Twila-

Spike: Clean up winter? Who cleans up winter? Don't they just use magic to change the seasons like they do in Canterlot?

Twilight: No Spike, Ponyville was started by Earth ponies, so for hundreds of years they've never used magic to clean up winter. It's traditional. [sigh]

Wolfie: Twila-

Spike: It's ridiculous. No magic... Fuh.

Twilight: Okay, let's see: scarf, check; saddle, check; boots, check; Spike refusing to get up and going back to sleep, check. Wolfie already being awake, check. It's a good thing I'm so organized, I'm ready. Bright and early. Oh... maybe a little too early.

Wolfie: That's what I've been trying to tell you.

     It's now daytime and Twilight is running to town hall with Spike on her back and Wolfie in her mane. Spike is still asleep and Wolfie is wagging her tail like a dog at seeing all the snow.

Twilight: Those must be the team vests Rarity designed. Blue for the weather team, green for the plant team, and tan for the animal team. I wonder which team vest I'll be wearing.

Spike: I'll take a blue vest, same color as my blankie, which I think I hear calling my name. "Spike! Spike! Come to bed!" Ugh, it's too early.

Wolfie: Maybe a tan vest for me...
Thoughts: Then I can snag a few bunnies. Or birds. Or anything really.

Twilight: I know what you're thinking Wolfie. Don't.

Wolfie: Aww.

Mayor Mare: Thank you, everypony, for being here bright and early. We need every single pony's help to wrap up winter, and bring in spring.

     Everypony cheer.

Mayor Mare: Now, all of you have your vests, and have been assigned to your teams, so let's do even better than last year, and have the quickest Winter Wrap Up ever!

     Everypony cheer again.

Twilight: Oh, this is so exciting.

Mayor Mare: All right everypony, find your team leader, and let's get galloping!

Twilight: Oh gosh, where should I go? I'm not sure where I fit in. What exactly does everypony do?

Twilight: Everypony belongs to a team. What should I do? Where should I go?

RD: All right team, you're clear for takeoff.

Twilight: Rainbow Dash!

RD: Oh, hey Twilight, what's up?

Twilight: What are you doing?
