Dark Room

I looked at the stars, the weather patrollers had done an especially good job today. My stars were absolutely gleaming, and I was extremely happy.

I stepped out of the balcony and into my room.

I took off my royal headdress, gown, slippers and necklace.

I needed some serious cheering up.


"Are you sure the princess is down with this?"

"No, but she'll never know..."

"Luna, your getting more fun everyday!"

I nodded; "I guess, now, don't you have something to do?" I gestured to the empty stage, "Aw, yeah! You just relax ok?"

I gave her a skeptical look; "Relax? In a place like this?" I looked around the nightclub, "I'll try."


"Soda, Sweet Apple Cider, Water or Juice?"

"Soda thanks," The waitress looked at me, "Have I seen you somewhere?"

I stretched out my legs, "No" I lied, I didn't want any attention. "Ok, that'll be 2 bits." I grabbed a few bits out of my pocket and slid them across the table.

The waitress picked them up then walked towards the bar, her pink hair bounced up and down. I frowned, her cutie-mark, it was on her arm; a picture of a daisy. Interesting.

"Ok everybody! DJ PON3 is ready to rock this!"

I found myself bopping my head to the music, it was really good.

"Here's your soda..." The waitress passed my a bubbly pink drink, "Thankyou. By the way," the waitress stopped and turned to face me, "What about your cutie-mark?"

"Huh? Oh..." The waitress gulped, "My talent is gardening..."

I nodded, "Would you like to work at the royal canterlot gardens?"

The waitress' eyes bulged, "Really?" "Follow me, but first," "Yes?!" "Your name?" "Petal Shine."

I waved to the DJ as we left, whom, waved back.

I smiled, Petal really will like working at the gardens. I'm sure of it.
