The Secret Pond

     After Tia sets the sun, I put down my drink and start to raise the moon. Every day it's like this. I raise the moon, I set the moon, Tia raises the sun, she sets the sun. I just wish that there was another pony in my life now. I'm completely old enough. Tia just, well, isn't that fun anymore. I want at least a friend.

      I exited the castle doors after breakfast, the nice sound of night ringing in my ears. I smiled and kept walking down the path when I suddenly rammed into something, well more like a some pony. "Oh, sorry ma'am I..." The colt looked at me in shock. "Hi!" I say as I put my smile back on.

        "Oh, hi. I'm ocean blue." He says putting out a hoof. I lift up my hoof to give him a hoof bump. "Luna." I say once our hooves clink together. "Princess Luna." I say as I point a hoof at my crown. "Your a princess?" Says the navy blue colt. "Yeah, but trust me, being the princess of the night is not fun." I say as I poke his shoulder.

       "So, what are you doing out here so late at night?" I ask him as I lead him to the pond. "Well, I was called here because a secret pond has appeared and I need to look for rare fish. It was an emergency." He said, rolling his eyes as he said the very last sentence.

         "Wanna a be friends? I have never had a friend before." I ask him as we reach the pond. His white and blue mane fly around. I knew what he was going to say, it's what they always say. I knew that when I asked that question, I could have just ruined everything. I knew he would say, "sure I'll be your friend!" He says right when I think he would say no.

        My mind blew up into bits, I had no idea what to think anymore. So, I did what a surprised pony does, faint.

     "Are you there? Luna! Luna!?" Says a mare with a rather raspy voice. As I open my eyes I see ocean blue and a Pegasus with rather big wings, bigger than my mother's wings. Her mane was brown with red orange and yellow streaks in it, her coat was white and her eyes were hazel. "Luna! Wake up!" Says the blue unicorn.

      I open my eyes a few times and get up. I suddenly see that ocean blue's cutie mark is three fish. "um, what's your talent Ocean?" I ask the unicorn. "Oh, studying fish." Says the colt.

       I get up as the mare slowly shies away into a bush. "It's okay, I'm not going to bite you." I say as her wings begin to fold tighter than, well, something really tight. "You won't break my wings will you?" Asks the white mare. "Why would I do that?" I ask in confusion.

        She opens her mouth to talk but then an alicorn appears out of nowhere and starts laughing.

        "What the hay?" I yell out as the yellow coated alicorn looks at me and smiles with her mouth slightly opened. "Heh, cool crown!" She says as she trots up to she shy mare.

     "Okay so the white one is brave dash, and the yellow one is time hopper. We're siblings." Says ocean blue as the sound of our voices crawl through the forest. "What are there talents?" I ask him as he takes a sip out of his bottle of water. "Time's talent is being able to freeze, go back, or stop time. And brave's talent is flying super light speed fast." He says as he points at the two giggling mares.

      "I never knew how popular my 'place to relax and be myself' was." I say walking over to the chest.

  I scratch my head, wondering if anything else was in it.

     I begin to see the magical glow of some pony else's horn as I open the chest.

     The sound of laughter in the background started to get a little annoying. "Ocean blue, can you go get them to be quiet?" I ask him as I telekinetically pull out the note and scout the wooden box.

     "Hey, wanna stay out here for the rest of the night with me?" I ask as I find another key and place it in my saddle bags. "Sure!" Says the blue coated colt. "Yea, I'll stay! I have nothing else to do..." Says brave dash as she leaps into the air, does a  flip, and then lands onto the ground, finishing the performance by folding her wings.

        "I'll go fetch wood for a fireplace!" Says time hopper as she blasts into the woods.

     As brave dash and I build the pit for the fire, ocean blue went off to gather small rocks. Brave dash started to open her mouth to say something but is interrupted by the yellow alicorn filly. " I'm back!" She says in a joyful singing voice.

      "That was really really fast!" I say with a hoof pointing at time hopper. "Well, I can stop time for as long as I want to." She says. I see ocean come out of the woods with exactly twenty seven rocks telekinetically floating in the air. "I see your back as well." Says ocean as he looked at time. I roll my eyes and back away from the pit.

    I watch as they place the sticks neatly into the hole and carefully plant the rocks around it. "Woah, that looks very nice you guys." I say as I fix a misplaced rock.

     I scream once I see brave's tail turns into fire. "It's okay Luna, this is normal for fire pegasi." She says as she uses her tail to light the fire. "Vaulla!" She says once the fire is lit and her tail turns back into fur.

      "Hey, wanna tell scary stories?" I ask finishing with a ghost noise. "Sounds awesome!" Says brave dash and time hopper, as if they knew what the other was going to say.

    "It all began on a day where a stallion was trotting into town." Brave dash began but was interrupted by ocean blue. "We have heard that one so much it's old, pick another." "Okay." Says brave dash with an evil grin.

     "It was a cold wet night as a mare ran into the forest. She turned left, right, then she ran off the path into the woods. She was being chased by something, but she had no idea what. She looked back and saw the black cloud of darkness flanking her. It has red eyes with a white, foamy mouth. She then saw a cliff and unfolded her silver wings and took flight. She then remembered that her wings were broken and so she screamed as loud as she could when suddenly a navy blue alicorn flew up and saved her. The monster then jumped off the mountain and suddenly turned into a rabbit. The end!" She ended with a jump.

    I then saw it was becoming day as they all finished there stories. "Well, I'll be off to bed now!" I say walking off but then I rammed into another pony. "What's going on here?" Says the yellow coated colt. "We are... Camping!" I say as a smile sprouts onto my face.

      "Well, I need to go! Bye friends!"

I say as hoof prints form behind me.
