The Stars and The Moon

A rapping came from the large oak door at the far end of the President's office, and he glanced up from his papers regarding funding for several schools, and he called out to the door, "Yes?"

The door opened and his secretary poked her head in, "Sir, Doctor Hooves, the Headmaster of the Canterlot Academy, is here for an appointment with you."

"Show him in," he returned his gaze to his papers as a light brown Earth Stallion walked in, and the large oak door closed with a certain force that shook the wall behind the approaching Doctor.

The Doctor sat down in one of the two chairs provided in front of the President's large onyx desk, and he waited for the President to finish his paperwork.

Silence held the air, it looked as if he was sitting in a still painting, for the President's office was rather luxurious: a sharp style of dark colored wood and onyx, with several paintings of various Academies that belonged to the Institution, and large drapes over the massive windows behind the President, letting just a sliver of light inside the gaping windows.

The sound of the President writing something with a pen held in his white magic aura on the papers scattered in front of him echoed throughout the room, the only other sound audible enough other than the Doctor's hearts beating at a mad rate in his chest.

The pen was released from the magic grasp. The Doctor's ears pricked up. The President shuffled his papers together in a swift motion and placed them aside, taking his eyeglasses off and placing his hooves on his onyx desk, "Doctor Hooves.. Headmaster of the Canterlot Academy, a doctrine in Unicorn History, and History in general.."

The President sat back and stared at the Headmaster, "So.. what are you here for?"

The Headmaster sat up straight, clearing his throat and adjusting his tie, "It is the start of the next semester Mr. President,"

The President nodded, "Indeed it is,"

The Headmaster adjusted his tie again, "And I would like to discuss a matter of rankings among students, more specifically that of the top three."

The President furrowed his eyebrows, "What of these three?"

The Headmaster hesitated, "My apologies: the top two."

The President awaited an answer, "Sir these two, Twilight Sparkle and Trixie Lulamoon, they're scores are.. astonishing.."

The President nodded, "And..?"

The Headmaster adjusted his tie again, "Sir.. everything about them, their grades, scores, rank.. they're.. the same.."

The President's eyes widened, "Exactly the same?" The Headmaster bit his lip and slowly nodded.

The President leaned back in his chair, his face widened in astonishment, "And how old are these students?"

The Headmaster hesitated, "I'm not exactly sure sir, but I do know that they're both young mares sir,"

Silence held the moment. The Headmaster adjusted his tie, becoming more and more anxious as the President sat back and stared at him. He adjusted his tie once more, "And so.. I.I.. Um.. Their scores have outmatched our greatest student so far sir," The President raised an eyebrow, "Sunset Shimmer sir, both of their scores have outdone her highest scores."

The President sat forward in his chair, "You mean My Daughter? Celestia's own Private Student?"

The Headmaster nodded, "For young mares they sure are bright compared to even our older, more distinguished students."

The President sat back, "I see. Do these two students attend Canterlot Academy?"

Their was a pause. "No sir.. but.."

"Then I want both of them attending Canterlot Academy immediately!"

The President jumped up from his chair, which startled the Headmaster, "A-As you wish sir.."

The President sat back down and sighed, adjusting his cup that held several of his pens back to where it was before he stood up, "Now, I do recall the name of Twilight Sparkle: she was hoof picked by Princess Celestia herself before the beginning of the semester right?"

The Doctor nodded, "Indeed she was sir, what of it?"

"If she is in Princess Celestia's little group, is this Trixie Lulamoon in anything related to this subject of higher education?"

The Doctor shook his head, "No, she's in the old Hoofington Academy after all,"

The President nodded, "I see. So Twilight Sparkle is already at the Canterlot Academy, Correct?" The Doctor nodded, "Very well, then I want Trixie Lulamoon transferred to the Canterlot Academy immediately, and make sure to give her higher level classes."

The Doctor hesitated, "Do you wish for this Trixie Lulamoon to be in the same classes as Twilight Sparkle? It seems that is what you are inferring."

"Of course I am you bloody idiot!" The President rang out to the Headmaster.

Their was a silence held in the exchange of angry eyes, until the Doctor stood up, "You don't seem interested in the fact of these two beating your daughter sir,"

The President shot daggers at the Headmaster, "But I see a something great in these two young mares, and it's a shame if this is your ego clouding your mind,"

"My ego doesn't fog my thoughts Hooves, watch your tongue now.."  The President pointed a hoof at the Doctor.

"Why can't you think of it sir? Why can't you see that these two are bound to be the benchmark of what a Unicorn is capable of regarding to magic? I've never seen such a thing in my life! Can't you see?!" The Doctor threw his hooves out to try to sway the President.

"Fine. If you see good in these two, then do it. I trust in you Doctor, but this seems to be out their in your ways, so I expect good results."

The President sat down while the Doctor remained standing. The President took out his papers and continued his work.

The President glanced up to see the Doctor still standing in front of his desk, "What are you still doing here? Go! Make this farfetched idea work! I want results in a month!"

The Headmaster smiled, turned around and walked to the door, closing the large oak door shut behind him.
