I sit up quickly from the dream I had, and wipe a hand down my face.

“Just a dream…” I say before slowly testing my legs, and carefully standing up. I can stand on my own.

“You need to be careful Dark Prince.” Says a voice in an elven accent.

“How did you get in here so quietly?” I ask in the elvish tongue.

“You don’t wake when you sleep like you did.” The elf tells me.

“Who wants to see me?” I ask it.

“An ancestor of an old friend wishes to see you.” The elf tells me before using a lunar teleport to leave. Lunar teleports are silent, and smooth. Not bright, and as loud as a solar teleport. They make more of a swooshing sound.

I steadily make my way to my wheelchair, and sit in it before wheeling myself out of the room Twilight lent me.

“Good morning nephew.” Celestia says as I exit the room into the front room of the library.

“Good morning Aunty.” I reply as I rub the sleep out of my eyes, “How did you sleep?”

“I slept well, and what of you?” She asks with a smile that almost seemed to shine.

“I dreamt of that night.” I reply with a small frown. She gives me a sad smile before holding a hoof out to me for a hug. I wheel myself into her grasp, and embrace my aunt. We pull away from each other after a few moments.

“Shall we go see Luna?” She asks me. Right as I open my mouth to reply my stomach complains at me. Celestia giggles a little before she sees Twilight walk down the stairs from her room.

“Good morning Twilight.” Celestia say to her student, who falls flat on her face from seeing her mentor this early in the morning. I manage to suppress my laughter to quiet chortling.

“Princess, it so good to see you again so soon.” Twilight says as she stands back up while blushing.

“It lovely to see you as well Twilight, now how about we go get some breakfast?” Celestia asks. I smile at the idea of food, and Twilight smiles as well.

“That sounds like a great idea, just let me go get Spike.” Twilight says before walking upstairs. I had finally subdued my hidden laughter before thinking about my mother.

Getting curious about how she is doing, and prepare to cast a very simple telepathy spell to speak with Tinnuchon.

“Loquela tacita.” I whisper as I cast the spell. I then send my thoughts to Tinnuchon.

Tinnuchon, this is Osiris, and I am wondering how my mother is doing. I send to him.

She is still asleep my Prince. He replies.

Okay, go and freshen up, and eat or rest. You have been a great help. Let the solar guards do their job for now. Celestia, Twilight, Spike, and I will be there after an hour or so. I tell him.

I will await your arrival. He replies before the spell ends.

I am left breathing a little harder than usual from the use of my magic so early in my recovery.

“Osiris, are you okay?” Celestia asks me.

“Yeah, just a little tired from being up right now. I’ll be fine.” I tell her. She gives me a concerned look before Twilight and Spike come down the stairs.

“Alright, we’re ready to go.” Twilight says. Spike looks like about as awake as I feel.

“Are you sure you’re okay?” Celestia asks me. Twilight looks at me with concern as well now.

“Is something wrong?” Twilight asks me. I open my mouth to tell her I am fine, but hesitate. I sigh before shaking my head.

“No, but I’m tired, so expect me to be a bit slower all round today.” I say after a little thought. I knew that Celestia saw through my lie. Twilight looks unsure of my answer, but exits the library, but not before Celestia manages to say, “We will catch up to you Twilight, I wish to speak to my nephew in private.”

“Okay, we’ll see you at Sugarcube Corner later this morning then.” Twilight says before closing the door behind her, and leaving. I sigh, knowing what Celestia is going to ask.

“What happened when you woke up this morning?” Celestia asks me. I sigh knowing I couldn’t lie now.

“I got a message from an ancestor of an old friend.” I tell her. She looks surprised.

“I didn’t hear, see, or sense anyone enter or leave the library.” She tells me. I shake my head.

“You weren’t looking for the right magic. All elven are lunar magic users Tia.” I tell her.

“That isn’t all is it?” she asks me. I shutter at what she was asking.

“Celestia… when mother turned into… that… I was terrified.” She gasps.

“You saw her when she…” She says with wide eyes. I nod before the memory returns to the front of my mind.

-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

“Osi? Where art thou going?” Silver asks me.

“We want to see mommy.” I say with a frown.

“But she said not to bother her.” Silver reminds me. I sigh before looking at her with my cute face. I pout my bottom lip, and widen my eyes, forcing them to make tears.

“Thou knoweth I can’t resist that devilish face.” She tells me with a groan, “Fine, go see thine mother, but don’t say I didn’t warn thee.” I smile to her before giving her a friendly hug, and leaving to go to see my mother.

“Guard Blade?” I ask for one of the guards outside my room’s doors.

“Yes young Prince?” She asks me.

“May we go see our mother?” I ask her. Blade smiles sweetly to me.

“Of course, let’s go.” She says to me. I return her smile before falling into step besides her. We were silent as we made our way to the throne room.

Once we were there I hear loud noises from the throne room, and rush ahead to see what was wrong. Guard Blade follows me silently, and we stop before the big oak doors. I open them a little to peak at what was happening, and see Mother, and aunty fighting again. I start to open the door more to run in and stop them but mother give a primal scream of rage before truly dark magic starts streaming towards her.

My eyes widen in fear as I watch mother’s coat turn black instead of her dark blue. Her wings grew longer, and stronger. I could see her height visibly increase. Her eyes start to glow a pure cyan blue, but before I could look away her magic lights in a deep demonic like magic before aunty was blown back. The pulse of dark power slams the throne room’s doors shut, and I fall back onto my rear from the door hitting me.

I was silently crying from the image of mother turning into… whatever that was. Before Blade could ask what was wrong I stood up, and bolted away as my sob became known to the halls of the castle. I ran as fast as I could go until I saw what I was heading for. A portal the elven people had hidden in the castle disguised as a wall. I ran right through it, and into the city of the elven people before running off to Rahchun’s home.

When I got there, his father let me in without hesitation before letting me stay for the night, and the next day before taking me home.

“And after that I kept what I saw to myself. I was seven at the time, a year after you and mother made Silver for me.” I finish telling Celestia about my memory as I try to suppress it back into my mind. My head was hanging, and I had tears streaming from my eyes. I feel Celestia embrace me in a full hug. Her wings are wrapped around me as well.

My emotions take over from there, and the stress breaks my hold on my control, and I throw my arms around Celestia before sobbing into her shoulder.

Needless to say, I was having a bad day this morning from the get go.
