Days To Come

"Today is a new day." I thought to myself as I got out of the comfortable  bed. I'm still not used to this bed. I miss my old bed back at the library. It seemed... Right.

It was now one whole year that I stopped seeing my friends.

"Hey Spike. Wake up. " I whispered into his ear. as he awoke, I still think he hasn't gotten over the whole abandoning  Ponyville thing... I stopped myself.

"I haven't abandoned  Ponyville, have I?" I whispered half to myself.

"Twilight, what are you talking about?" Spike grumbled stifling a yawn.

Man. I've been thinking about Ponyville non-stop now. I thought to myself.

"Oh. Nothing important." I answered not looking very convincing. Luckily, Spike is still half asleep.

"Well what did you wake me up for?" Spike asked sounding more awake after shaking himself.

"For one, it's morning." I stated flatly. "And two, Princess Celestia asked for you to contact Princess Luna."

"Well why didn't you say so?" Spike asked with a smile lightening the mood.

"What do you want to say?" Spike asked as he got out an inkwell and scroll.

"Request that she should see Celestia and I at once." I proclaimed. "And be cautious about the loyalty within your guards."

Once I finished talking Spike gave me a worried look. "Is this serious?" He asked wide eyed.

"Everything is going to be fine Spike." I reassured him.

Once Spike sent the letter to the princess, I got ready for what today may hold.

Once I got to Celestia's throne, I realized that the whole room is empty. There was no one around but one guard. Not just any guard, the captain of the Royal Guard. My own brother, Shining Armor.

"Twily!" Shining Armor yelled happily across the room.

As I walked over there to meet him, I asked, "where is everypony?"

He answered with his grin vanishing from his face. "They went to the Barracks." He replied.

"Why are they at the barracks? Did I miss something?" I asked.

Shining Armor then started to get agitated. "Princess Luna didn't raise the moon last night. Celestia had to. And after hearing the events from yesterday, I think some of her own guards kidnapped her." He stated gritting his teeth.

I realized that he wasn't mad at me, but mad at some of his own guards.

He must have realized his mistake and started to grin again. "Come on. I'm here to escort you to the barracks."
