It was a bright, sunny day; the birds were chirping and the air had the aroma of roses, it was quite a perfect day. Luna was walking down the halls of the Canterlot castle only to find something odd.
Her sister, Celestia, was pointing to a portal, oddly enough, she didn’t know where it lead.
“Sister, I do not know how this portal got here, it used to be a mirror but then a portal opened inside it. I think you have to go in, for the safety of our kingdom, just in case there is something dangerous out there.”
Luna gulped. She was scared of what could happen. Just as she was about to say “sure, why not”, Luna felt like she had something in her throat. Her heart beat fast and she stood silent. No one knew that, but Luna was really afraid of portals, they seemed scary to her. She swallowed her fear and decided to go in, no matter what. It was the kingdom we were talking about, after all.
Just as Luna walked through the portal it closed. Celestia was on the other side, laughing so hard her jaws hurt. She knew exactly where the portal would lead, and it seemed amusing to her, imagining where Luna was.
Luna was on the other side, looking pretty confused. She felt like she knew nothing, like she was born again. Everything was so strange over there, everything was… blocky. Luna felt like all she knew about the world was now virtually worthless, since this place was so different. Trying to keep her cool and not breaking into an anxiety attack, Luna started looking around for other life forms. She spotted some animals that seemed familiar to her like chickens, pigs, cows, sheep, wolves, and other basic farm and wild animals. She was starting to feel more comfortable, seeing creatures that she already knew things about, but there was one thing she couldn’t feel familiar with, blocks. EVERYTHING IS BLOCKS! That is what Luna screamed internally. She was too scared to say it out loud because there might be dangerous creatures that might hear her. Basically her anxiety was getting the best of her.
As she was walking around she saw the same landscape but then, everything changed. While she started out walking in a treeless place full of flowers, and know she was in a place full of snow and tall, evergreen trees. “This place isn’t natural! The climate can just change like that? I am surprised I haven’t seen anypony taking care of this! Those ponies who roam this land surely are lazy! At least I hope it is ponies who roam this land,” thought Luna getting anxious again.
Surprisingly enough, the day passed in only what seemed 20 minutes. Luna didn’t notice how long that day lasted, she was concerned about raising the moon. As she saw the sun go down, not even wondering who lowered it, she started trying to use her magic to raise it. She tried and tried but it seemed like her magic was utterly useless. She saw the moon raise by itself which made her curiosity grow about that place.
Luna decided it was time that she found a shelter for the night. She searched for one, but no use. She started hearing creepy noises from dark corners of a forest. Luna stood motionless, too scared to walk. She waited, hoping maybe the strange sounds would go away. But they didn’t. They just became louder and louder until she decided it was time TO RUN FOR HER LIFE! She ran into the dark forests, hoping she wouldn’t get hurt or worse, end up dying by those strange creatures that made those sounds. Luna thought it was the end of her and nearly gave up, too scared to run anymore.
Then, a streak of courage suddenly raced about her mind, and thinking of when she would get home after this terrible trip was over and how she will be there with Celestia and the portal would be either destroyed or closed. She looked behind her just to see who was following her. Skeleton and zombie ponies were after her as well as a group of really large spiders.
She suddenly saw a light ahead and decided she would head for it. It seemed like time stopped. Luna looked around her only to see some weird creatures with long noses and other blocky things and animals. She looked ahead and saw a bright light. Luna couldn’t really make up what it was, but for some reason she trusted it. She felt like there was really no choice, like anything, even if it was unpredictable helped.
After time seemed to run as it did before Luna jumped into the bright light. Before she could realise it was a portal she saw the face of her sister looking at her, in laughter. Luna was really confused but she would only be like that for a millisecond. She suddenly found herself sliding on the castle floor and gazing upon Celestia, who was still laughing, while she was closing the portal.
Luna picked herself up from the floor and looked at Celestia. She finally stopped laughing.
“So, sister, how was it in that world? Did you have fun? I bet you did!” Celestia said jokingly while staring at Luna, who was covered in grass and sticks after running through the forest for her life.
“Very funny, Celestia. You knew what would happen, and you sent me on purpose! Now excuse me while I go to the bathroom to take a bath and wash all this dirt off of me! Oh and by the way, you better destroy that portal or the royal guards might stay near it 24/7 with anti-bug spray in their hooves, since there were humongous spiders in that world! I never want to go there again!” said Luna as she was heading for the bathroom.
“So I guess you didn’t enjoy your go-to-another-dimension surprise…” said Celestia jokingly as Luna gave her a mean look.
