The dead move.

(*Swift hooves dream world.*)

"I'm sleeping again aren't I?" I turned my head towards Princess Luna, who was not eating what looked to be...sweet delicious canned peaches. She simply nodded and gulped down a bite of the peaches. "You're going to share, right?" The pleading in my eyes would have made begging dogs jealous.

"Nope, these are my peaches." But...why?

"Why! It's my dream!"

She looked towards me with a raised eyebrow. "Precisely, just make some, it's really easy."

I guess that would make sense, having total control over everything in my own head is a pretty logical thing, seeing as how it is all my thoughts and what not. I concentrated as hard as I could and before my very eyes was...an entire swimming pool filled with peaches! I dived in head first, expecting the delicious fruity goodness to envelope me. What I got instead was a face-plant into a really pillow-y mattress.

"B-but p-peaches!"

"Those can wait, we need to talk." Oh, that's not good.

"Are you breaking up with me Princess?" I had a smile on my face and was snickering, she just had a really confused face going on.

"What, we were never a couple!" She now looked at me with a face filled to the brim with seriousness. "Equestria is in peril! Now is not the time for your silly little jokes. You have to find Magi, powerful Magi. Scientists as well, they might be able to at least prevent the spread of this."

"Hold up, you're telling me you don't know of a cure?!"

She gave me a dead-pan expression. "I have not been on THE PLANET for thousands of years, the only reason I have any idea of what is going on at all is because of my sisters constant magic wasting to see what is going on down there!" I had sunken down to the ground from all that berating, it hurt me a little, I was surprised by the lack of a knowledge of a cure was all, she had been around for a while.

"Sorry, it's just...wait how long have you been up here?" Now she looked plain worried, and incredibly sad.

"You have heard stories of my thousand year imprisonment here, yes? I nodded my head. "That is nothing compared to the amount of time I have sent here this time, sister and I have watched pony society change in ways we had never been able to predict, some for the better, some for the worst, and now with how magic has been changed since...the incident, sister and I have been hard pressed to gather as much of the magic that was around during our time."

Incident? "What...incident?"

She had an extremely pained expression on her face, I could practically feel the pain flowing off of her. "We can discuss that at a later time...but now I need you to wake up." She looked me in the eyes with what looked to a majority of sadness, but also a small smirk. Her horn lit up and the next thing I knew...

I woke to find that it was still dark out, due to...complications, I was finding getting up to go see where the moon was at in the sky to be difficult.

What I had woken up to was awesome, no amazing! NO! It was awemazing! But it was also kind of scary...actually quite terrifying. Scarifying? To be simple it was great and terrible. To my left was Storm, resting kinda fitfully, her hooves fidgeting and moving about, she was muttering about something being hers.

Blood drip being on his other side was deeply curled into his side, seeming to be in near complete bliss just being there, he had no clue how to feel about anything.

"Harmpsh, stop moving." That was Blood, she did seem quite comfortable, and it was still dark out...wait, then why would Luna want me awake? I was starting to panic, was there some kind of problem?! Zomponies near the cave maybe! Or...or the old stories could be right, the ones about how Luna and Celestia would prank each other, and of how they eventually got tired of just doing it to each other and they moved on to others. Did she do this? Oh that is just no cool...or maybe it is pretty cool? I mean I do have two rather good looking mares nuzzling right up against me...

I put my head down, now is not the time for those thoughts...plus how awkward would it be if you got...excited...May as well just sleep and see how things go in the morning.

I felt something nuzzling my shoulder and opened my eyes, it was Blood drip, she was shaking a little bit. Of course this had to start now, as soon as winter was coming up...fucking great. I started to get up, not caring that I was moving the two next to me. Getting up while laying on your back is hard, and I had to turn over towards Blood drip to get up...this was not good, it might make her get up.

As carefully as I could muster, I rolled over, effectively mushing our faces together, and with how my luck worked, she woke up because of that. At first it was just a hazy little bit of blinking, then her eyes got impossibly wide...and then she smiled...creepy as fuck.

"Aaah, good morning." She snuggled herself into me more...

"G-g-good ma-morning." This was really awkward for me...I felt Storm nuzzling my back while Blood here was snuggling up to me...and I had never really had this much attention from any mare in all my life, let alone two!
