A tale of Luna's trip across the moon upon being bored.

Luna is bored. Very bored. Her evil sister has banished her to the moon again for no particular reason. In Sweetie Belle's dreams, she saw the filly doing some form of shuffle across the floor called the 'sweetiescoot'. Luna was going to do that now. But if she called it Lunascoot, it would be copyrighting, so she would have to settle for Scootluna.

Scootluna

"Hmm humm hummmmm to fulfil your something something! I'll never remember what else I sung in that song... Oh well, I'll just write another song for when I turn somepony else into a Alicorn. Now let's get started! You are such a talented mare, though ponies look at you, they don't seem to care. It's time for that to change, it's time to be famous, it's time for you to see your full potential!"

Luna bit her lip to stop the sniggers as she watched her sister try write a song. There were many reasons why she was laughing, and here they are;

A) Celestia can't sing
B) Celestia can't write songs
C) Celestia didn't know that Luna was spying on her
D) Luna had been hiding a bottle of whippy cream behind her back

As if on cue, Celestia fell asleep. Slowly, her sister creeped up behind her, levitated the whippy cream and sprayed it on Celestia's horn, tickled Tia's belly and then ran back into the shadows to watch the magic happen. Literally. Celestia woke up and tried to levitate whatever was on her stomach. But because there was nothing there, Celestia tried to grab whatever object was closest to her. Which was the whippy cream. The friction of trying to levitate something on her horn caused a electric shock, making Tia's hair stand on the end. Luna ran out from the shadows, laughing her head off. Celestia was not amused.

"What did you think you were doing! Trollestia never gets trolled! Now you have got on my nerves one time to many, Lu! TO THE MOON WITH YOU!"

In a sudden flash, Luna found herself on a desolate surface surrounded by craters. She knew where she was all too well where she was, for she had spent 1000 years here. In desperation, Luna flew towards Equestria but Tia had already put up a force field. A blinding light appeared before exploding into a million sparkles. In the place where the light previously was lied a note. Luna levitated it to her eye level, reading it slowly. It read this:

Princess Luna, first princess of the night and my useless beautiful sister, I regret to inform you that you are now on the moon for another 1000 years for inappropriate behaviour. Oh, who am I kidding? You have been downright stupid to think that you could troll Princess Trollestia and get away with it.
Signing off for the last time in a millennium,
Your hating sister,
Celestia

Luna let out a highly audible sigh before deciding to go to her old house. She traveled for a while, for the moon is bigger than it looks, but she eventually came to the rotten old shack made of moon rock. She lifted a hoof towards the doorknob, for her magic was still adapting to the moon and levitating the letter had worn her out. Luna tugged at the scrap of metal she had salvaged from a spaceship in a wreck on her 5th year. It didn't budge. More rapidly now, Luna tugged 3 more times, but nothing happened. A third a fourth a fifth- the door still had not had moved. In one final effort, Luna used both her hooves, her wings and the remains of her still-adapting magic; not even a creak. Luna kicked the door in anger, causing it to rip off its hinges and float off to the other side of the moon.

"Well, that thing was gonna break sooner or later anyway."

Luna bounced into the house, taking advantage of the moon's weak gravity, and opened a jar that had long rotted away. A tiny *squeak* cam from the jar as the marooned princess struggled to open the jar. Luckily, the jar lid wasn't as stuck as the door, and Luna soon opened it. A Small, black face with red eyes peeked out of the jar before jumping onto Luna's face and assaulting her with nips on her mane. It was Luna's old pet, Abe the moon rat. Moon rat's are immortal and do not eat, so Abe was in perfect condition. Abe then nestled on Luna's shoulder and went to sleep. Luna was glad to see him, but she still had to get used to life on the moon again.

2 months later...

*doosh* *doosh* *doosh*. That is the sound of Luna whacking her head of the table in her shack. Which she has been doing for the last 3 hours. Boredom has overwhelmed Luna because she couldn't do anything that she hadn't done before. She couldn't:
~eat
~sleep
~go to the toilet
~play with Abe
~try escape
~send a long and boring apology to Celestia using letters
~ bounce around
~create a shipping chart
~ explore the moon
~randomly start dancing
So, in honest truth, Luna was stuck. She thought about home, Tia, Twilight Sparkle and her friends, and all the fillies she had visited in dreams. What was her most recent filly she had visited? Oh that was the one; Rarity's little sister. Sweetie Belle. That filly must be bored out of her mind when her sister is making dresses and she has nothing to do! Oh, she shuffles across the floor when she gets bored, doesn't she? Sweetiescooting, that was it. She might as well Sweetiescoot now. But her name wasn't Sweetie, was it? It was Luna. She would Lunascoot. In a abrupt manner, Luna suddenly began to blurt out.

"No Luna! You were taught not to steal things, especially not names. It would be copyrighting! You'll have to come up with another name for your boredom scoot."

Luna sat there, thinking of what to call it. Nothing came to mind. Thou scoot of boredom? Too ancient. Do the scoot while you can#yolo? Too modern. A sudden idea popped into Luna's head. Switch the two words around! Easy enough! Scootluna. That is what Luna would do. She got up, clicked her neck into position from bashing her face and set out onto the rocky surface of the moon. She dug her face into fairly breakable moon rock, heightened her hindquarters and began to shuffle forwards. She felt the moon rock crumbling beneath her and she smiled. She liked Scootlunaing. As she continued for days, she realised that she didn't want to stop. So, for the next 1000 years Luna Scootlunaed across the moon.

The end

Author's Note

I hope you enjoyed this! And read on for sooooooooon...–ey stuff.

Epilogue (and possible sequel!!)

Whilst straightening her crown, Luna growled ferociously at her opponent as she dug her face into the ground, chin pushing through the ground.

"On your marks..."

Luna's eyes squinted. Even though the royal announcer was putting her off, she had to quickly look ahead for obstacles.

"Get set..."

Making a noise similar to a car (well, the ponies don't know what cars are, but they will now thanks to Luna), Luna lifted up her hind-quarters. The spectators gasped with the tension.

"Go!"

They began.

Celestia would not beat her.
