A blue pony was standing on a balcony as the evening sun was setting. The pony, known as Princess Luna, stretched her limbs, for she had just woken up. Also she was a bit rusty, being banished to the moon, and all. She powered up her magic, and a light blue aura surrounded her horn. She expected the moon to appear within seconds, but she found herself struggling with the spell. It was as if the moon was bigger or heavier.
If that's even possible. Luna thought. After several attempts, she slumped to the floor. Luna stamped a hoof in frustration.
"Why won't you budge!?" She shouted, looking up at the sky. She then got worried.
What if Tia gets mad? Luna thought, not wanting to upset her sister. The Alicorn then stood up on her hind legs and pointed her forelegs upwards, and then towards the spot where the moon should've been, and then repeated the process several times.
"The power of Christ," She urged, nearly reaching The Royal Canterlot Voice. "Compels you!"
Sparks flew from the Alicorn's horn as she increased the power in her magic.
"THE POWER OF CHRIST," She yelled in The Royal Canterlot Voice. "COMPELS THOU!!!!!!"
More light blue sparks shot from the princess' horn. Suddenly, a shield appeared around Luna, which was the same shade of her mane and aura. The princess began feeling overwhelmed. Even though she was an Alicorn, she couldn't control the spell. She had put too much power into it. Then, the aura encased Luna, sparks still streaming from her horn. A worried and petrified expression was plastered upon her face.
"Oh Shi-" She choked. And as soon as she had come, she left.
-----------------------------------
I lay on my couch, watching It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Well, half watching, anyways. I was also reading an article online about The Super Moon. Actually it's just our regular moon, only closer. And it's the closest the moon will be to Earth during the year. But, hey, let's stop discussing the educational stuff and start discussing the less important stuff. Like me.
My name is Nikki Brown, and I am female, if you hadn't guessed that before, and I just happen to li-er, no, liking is for soda. I just happen to love My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.
And my looks, my looks aren't really that important, well, I never thought so. I've always been a tomboy at heart. I have dirty blonde hair and brown eyes. See, not important?
Anyways, there I was, paying attention to both the T.V. and my laptop. Suddenly, I heard a loud explosion. It startled me quite a bit, but I relaxed, remembering that it could just be guns. You see, my neighborhood is weird.
It's dangerous, yet it seems safe.
"If that's even possible." I said to no one. Actually, um, I did say it to someone. I, uh.....said it to one of my cats! I have two cats, Paws and Gabe. I looked out the window I could easily see out of from were I was laying. I saw light-ish blue lights flickering in the sky.
I smiled.
Huh, fireworks, nice. I thought. But, isn't it a little early? I made my stiff and lazy body stand up to get a better view of the lights. What I saw was so much more interesting than fireworks. In an alleyway across the street, as clear as day, (Or should I say night, am I right? Wink wink.) was a huge, gaping hole.
"Oh shiz." I choked.
A Missing Princess And Breaking The Ice
I stared in awe at the the giant chasm. My jaw had literally dropped. How could I not? Giant holes of death just don't appear out of the blue like that, well they don't in my town. I wanted to call somebody, but who?
The cops? I thought frantically. The national guard, the A Team!? But all I could do was stare at that giant hole of death. I felt drawn to it, like going there would help me fulfill my destiny. Which sucks because Destiny is a cruel bi- witch. Destiny is a cruel witch. And yet, my body decided to be a back-stabber and ignored common sense completely.
You suck. I thought angrily to myself.
I'm doing this for your own good. Destiny contradicted.
Wait. If I'm thinking thinking to myself, does that make me crazy?
Well, they say if you wonder if you're crazy, it's already too late.
"Cool." I replied.
I stepped off the patio and began walking across the street. It was then that I started thinking of the pros and cons of doing this. The cons were that there could be alien that could suck out my my brains, or a type of space germ that could give me an advanced form of Cancer. The pro was that the Omnitrix could be in there, and that was a risk I was willing to take.
I made to the alleyway and leaned over the edge. And I don't know why, but I felt a feeling of impending doom rising up in my stomach. There was also some purple looking smoke rising up from the hole, so it could of just been affects from the possibly harmful toxins. Then all of a sudden, a figure emerged from the smoke, letting out what sounded like a war cry. And that cry ended in a yawn.
"Awwwwwww man." It groaned. "What did I do last night? Aw man, did Celly drug me again?"
"Uh..." Was my intelligent greeting.
"Huh, who's there? It said.
How can it not see me? I thought. Maybe it can't see, or the smoke messed up it's vision.
To tell you the truth, I couldn't fully see it either, for it was still in the purple smoke. The thing emerged from the smoke, completely this time. And... it was a pony. No, maybe a horse. Whatever it was, it was as tall as me. Maybe a little shorter.
When it saw me, it's expression matched mine. Except it was on a pony face.
"OH SWEET BABY OF TAYLOR SWIFT AND KANYE WEST!!!" I screamed. The pony seemed shocked at my outburst, but it's expression turned into one of anger.
"WHAT ART THOU!!!!" It boomed. It was a shout that would've done Princess Luna proud.
In fact, she sound and looks a lot like said pony. I thought silently.
The pony stamped a hoof on the gravel.
"WE SHALL NOT ASK AGAIN!!!" It shouted. "WHAT ART THOU!!!!!"
I swallowed hard. "Um pr-princess L-Luna? It seemed caught off guard once again. It's voice softened.
"How doth thou know our name?!" She inquired loudly. A realization me like Glenn Quagmire crashing a plane while he was on crack. My neighbors.
My neighbors don't usually get into each other's business. Usually is the key word here. There are some instances where we get together, or crowd over something. Like accidents. Yep, that's right, we like watching the police come to carry away blood - stained stained people from cars or see firemen put out burning buildings. I'm actually quite surprised they haven't come out yet.
This might be one of those instances.
"Hey princess, can I ask you something?" I asked hurriedly.
"Wh-"
"Great." I interrupted. "Would you like to be dissected and promptly killed after dissection!?" I have no idea why, but as I said that, my voice was raised about three octaves and I was smiling a smile that would make Jeff The Killer proud. The princess probably didn't notice my possible murder face and shook her head vigorously.
"Nononononono!" She said.
"Great." I replied. "So follow me." I motioned towards my not good enough to be a poor house apartment. The Alicorn seemed hesitant to follow me.
Which I guess is pretty reasonable for someone in her position. I thought.
"All those things are gonna happen if the police find you!" I urged her. She hesitated, then nodded in understanding. From an unknown distance away, I heard sirens and saw dim flashing lights.
Speak of the bucking devils.
We ran across the street, and up the patio. I forced the door open and the girl in.
"Gogogogogogo flipping GO!" I yelled.
"Alri-woah jeez!" I forced the door closed once again. And did it two more times to my own.
"Heh heh. I forced it." I said, chuckling to a joke Luna wouldn't get.
"Heh, why yes, yes you did." She chuckled.
So she did. I thought. Luna straightened her posture and smiled.
"I thank you... um" She trailed off.
"Nikkole Amanda Brown, but call me Nikki." The princess nodded her head.
"Thank you, Nikki." Another realization hit me like...like...like, um..something hard. I had just met Princess Luna and she was in my house. Why was I not throwing this wom- um, mare a party Pinkie-style!?
Maybe I should break the ice.
Didn't you break the ice already?
Shut up. I looked looked to my stack of DVDs and took one from the top.
"So..." I paused to read the title, and then showed it to my guest. "Wanna watch Space Jam?"
--------------------------------------------
A white Alicorn Sat on her throne, staring at the pitch-black sky.
What the heck!? The princess thought. She had expected her sister to raise the moon minutes ago. She waited a few more minutes, and then raised her forelegs over her head and let out a groan. She decided to check on her sister.
"Luna." She called as she made her to the balcony were her sibling was. The princess was surprised to see that her sister was not there, but shrugged her haunches and moved on. The Alicorn made a list of all the possible places her sister could be.
Room?
Nope.
Kitchen?
No.
Living room?
Uh-uh.
Throne room?
Na-da.
Torture chamber?
No bueno.
Any other room?
What do you think!?
She asked the guards around the castle and city if they had seen her. The castle guards said that the last they had seen her, she was on the balcony. The city guards simply said, no.
Princess Celestia began to worry for her sister. She ordered some guards to search for princess Luna. They complied and exited the room, leaving the sun goddess to her thoughts.
She'll be fine. She silently reassured herself. She'll be fine.
