Chapter 1

I got out bed, my mane and tail messy. But I could brush them later. Or at least I wanted to. Today was the Summer Sun Celebration(I call it SSC), where I get to raise the sun in front of almost everypony. I go to the bathroom. I would have planned on taking a shower then brushing my mane, if my sister Luna haven't interrupted me.

"Sis! I want to try out a new spell!" She said. I got out of the bathroom to face her.

"Lulu, can't this wait until later? Today's the SSC remember?" I groaned. She pouted.

"Fine." Then she left the room. I was free to take a nice ~~long~~ short shower. After that I brushed my mane and tail. I put on my shiny(polished yesterday), golden shoes, my necklace, and my beautiful crown. I walk out the door.

"Come, guards." I say, laughing a bit. We walk outside the castle, on the podium I stand on for the SSC when it's in Canterlot. I see ponies all around. I see my student, Twilight Sparkle, and her six friends. Luna comes to stand beside me. This is the second time she is with for this. Last time, Twilight was here.

"Sister, are you ready?" I ask my little sister. She smiles.

"Yes." She answers confidently. She starts to lower the moon and I start to raise the sun. The purple sky turns into golds and pinks, then finally, blue. Everypony cheers for us. Who cheers for us the most, I can tell, is Twilight. I smile at her. She smiles back. I step forward.

"My little ponies." I start. "We are gathered here to today, to watch the sun rise, and not to see the moon fall, but to also rise. To see me and my sister rise. For everypony to rise." I step back. Everypony cheers again.

"Celly, did you wing it?" Luna whispers to me.

"Yes." I answer back. "But don't ruin the moment." Me and Luna head to the castle, and Twilight follows.

"Princess!" She calls after me. I turn to face the purple alicorn.

"Yes Twilight? And you don't have to call me princess." Twilight blushes.

"Sorry. And do you wanna hang out? I wanna show you some new spells." Luna frowns.

"Sorry Twilight," Luna says to her. "I wanted to show Celestia a new spell today."

"Oh. That's okay. we could always do it tomorrow right?" Twilight replies.

"Of course Twilight." I say to her.

"Yeah, tomorrow." Luna says sarcastically.

"Well, anyways, see you tomorrow Twilight." I say to Twilight. She leaves and I follow Luna to her room.

"What's this spell about Luna?" I ask my little sister.

"It sends you to another dimension." She says with a smile.

"Wait wha-" Then Luna fires the spell.

My head is groggy when I first wake up.

"Dang Luna, where did you find that spell?" I say to my self. I look at my surroundings and it looks like I'm in Canterlot. I look down and see a book. Not just any book. The book where it shows my bad side. The book where I banish Luna to the moon. But why would it be here? I thought I was in another dimension. I open the book to see if I can find anything. I probably won't, but it's worth a try.

"Once upon a time," I read out loud. "In the magical land of Equestria, there were two regal sisters who ruled together and created harmony for all the land." The picture is two alicorns. One is Luna, and the other, looks like Twilight, not me. So, maybe, just maybe, Twilight is the princess and I'm the student? I starting to think Luna chose this one on purpose, but I don't know why. I keep on reading

"To do this, the eldest," Which is Twilight in this world. "used her unicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn. The younger, brought out the moon to begin the night. Thus, the two sisters maintained balance for their kingdom and their subjects, blah blah blah." I know the story, so why should bother reading it? I grab the book with my magic and fly off. If I could fly, that is. I'm almost over the bridge when I meet Twinkleshine, Lemon Hearts, and Minuette.

"There you are Celly! Moondancer is having a little get-together in the west castle courtyard. You wanna come?" Twinkleshine says.

"Um, sorry, I got important stuff to do." I smile nervously.

"Like what?" Lemon Hearts asks me.

"Classified." I run past them to avoid anymore awkward conversations. I get to Twilight's or in this case my library. I open the doors.

"Spike! Spi-ike! Spike?" I hear him groan.

"I'm here." He says. I see the baby dragon on the floor, so I help him up.

"Sorry. What's that?" I see a package on his tail.

"Well, it was a gift for Moondancer." He picks it up and a teddy bear falls out with a squeak.

"Well anyways, take a note to the princess please."

"Uh, okay, I guess. What do you want me to write?"

"Dear Princess, uh, Twilight, this is urgent. Come ASAP. Your faithful student, Celestia."

"...Celestia. Done. What's so urgent?" Spike asks.

"Send the letter and I'll tell you." Spike sends the letter and it bursts into green flames.

"So," Spike starts. "What's so urgent?"

"Well, um, Luna sent me here." Spike's eyes widen.

"Luna? Like Nightmare Moon? How did-" Somepony knocks on the door and interrupts Spike. "I'll get it!" Spike calls. He opens the door and Twilight is standing there, looking very different from my Twilight.

"Hello Spike. Hello Celestia." She walks over to me. "What's so urgent, my faithful student?" I see many alike things with her and my Twilight, as expected.

"Luna sent her here?" Spike answers. "But I'm not sure what she means by 'here'." Twilight looks to him as he speaks, then back to me.

"What do you mean? My sister is trapped in the moon."

"Well, your Luna is trapped in the moon. My Luna sent me here from another dimension." Twilight and Spike's confusion went away.

"That makes sense." Twilight murmurs. "And what do you want me to do about it? I don't have enough magic to send you back. We will have to wait for my magic to build up." I sigh.

"Oh great. And this day was going just fine.
