Ain't she a quiet one?

Yeah, and we know some pretty shy people; am I right?

We do...? Who?

I'm Sunset Shimmer, President of the yearbook committee

Do you wanna join?

We could always use extra help.

I'm Wallflower Blush.

Nice to meet you.

Oh, ummmm...

We met in ninth grade English.

And I was saying it was nice to meet you then.

Anyway, I counted up all the votes

for the yearbook superlatives.

Most likely to succeed, Best smile, Class clown...

Ahhhh!

We won Best Friends!

"Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity,

Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle, and me!"

I always knew I liked you all, but now it's official!

In yearbook form!

The people have spoken!

Oh! Good for Micro Chips: Most Likely to Invent Cold Fusion.

Not a reason to be jealous, pfft, I'm not. Heh heh...

Don't worry, Twilight.

We know you're a genius.

Besides, it's just the yearbook.

"...Just the yearbook?"

Ugh, now you've gone and done it.

The student body has entrusted me with the responsibility

of gathering their memories into the pages of this book.

In thirty years, we might not remember everything,

but we will remember what's in the yearbook.

Well, I'm "entrusting" you not to put us next

to Best Muscles.

Every time you close the book

it'll be like we're kissing Bulk Biceps.

Oh, why don't we take our picture

Everyone's bound to look adorable.

Beach day!

I'll make my world-famous fun-in-the-sun cupcakes.

It's SPF fun-hundred!

Yech.

The great and powerful Trixie

demands to speak to the yearbook editor immediately!

Unfortunately for me, that's me.

What do you want, Trixie?

Huh! Just as I suspected...

I was not voted "Greatest and Most Powerfullest."

Explain yourself!

How should I put this: You didn't win Greatest

and Most Powerful because it wasn't one of the superlatives.

Hmm, neither was Biggest Meanie,

but that didn't stop you from winning it our Freshman year.

That was different. The whole school voted for her.

She was sooooooo mean.

Of course, we all know you've earned the right

not to be remembered that way.

Thanks.

We're not having a "Greatest and Powerfullest" superlative.

Sorry.

Oh, you're the one who'll be sorry, Sunset Shimmer.

When you least expect it, I'll have my revenge,

and then I'll disappear... like this!

Behold: The Magician's Exit!

Allow me.

We were actually on our way out.

Hmph!

I'll just finish up.

Oh, forgot to turn off the lights!

...in the dark.

Dear Princess Twilight, I thought you'd be happy to hear

that the girls and I were voted "Best Friends"

in the yearbook today.

After all, if you hadn't forgiven me,

You gave me the second chance I didn't deserve,

It really hurt my feelings!

And wasn't very nice to the ducks either.

That was a long time ago.

Twilight, you remember me, right?

We've been through so much together, please.

You're familiar with the Seven Trials of Clover the Clever?

Well! First of all, these date back

"The Memory Stone!"

That sounds promising.

It belonged to an evil sorceress

who was practically invincible.

With the Memory Stone,

she could erase any memory from anypony...

even fragments of memories.

Fragments like...

memories of me being nice?

Mm-hmm.

Clover the Clever knew the sorceress had to be stopped

and the stone destroyed, so he chased her across land and sea.

But every time he got close,

the sorceress would erase his memory and escape.

How? But he kept finding her.

These scraps of parchment. He secretly wrote everything down,

so he'd know what had happened and where to go next.

Like a trail of breadcrumbs.

Clever.

Ohhhh, Clover the-- yeah, got it.

What happened on the other side of this portal?

Clover must've hid it to keep anypony else
