Guarding Dreams

Luna ran through a dark alley way with a foal on her back. She tried to lose that cyclops that was following them. Just when she stopped to catch her breath the cyclops burst through the alley way wall and roared. The foal yelped and dug his face into Luna's mane. "Hold on," Luna charged a strong beam and blasted the Cyclops right in the chest. This only knocked back the Cyclops into the end of the alley way, destroying the wall but didn't destroy the Cyclops. Luna spread her wings and took flight. The foal still had his head in Luna's mane. "Don't worry, he can't hurt us in the sky," Luna scanned over the wreckage the cyclops had made, There was smoke so she couldn't tell where the Cyclops was but didn't see it leave the smoke so she just needed to keep a close eye on that spot. "N-no, it can jump really high", That's when the Cyclops did it, jumped really high, put both of his fist together, and put it down hard on Luna and the foal. Luna was quick enough on putting a small barrier on top of her but only lasted for 5 seconds, she went straight down, back in the rubble. The foal was only laying down a couple of meters away from her but certainly knocked out. Luna tried to get up but when the Cyclops landed in front of her with a tremendous quake, she fell back to the ground. Shade ... were are you? . Luna went out cold.

After Luna was done checking on most of the foals' dreams, she went to Shade. She remembered his dream number, 2016. Last time, she came upon his dream by chance and out of the blue he gave her a deal. It was the same place as before, the to sofa chairs, a fireplace, and the table. She walked up to the sofa chair Shade had been sitting on. "Shade?" and again like last time, she found herself in the chair she sat in before.

"You know, it isn't nice sneaking up on ponies,", Shade looked up at Luna with a questioning look.

"My apologies, I was just making sure you were here," Shade really had a smile, shaking his head like Luna had just said something really dumb.

"If you can find my dream, than you must know if I'm here, correct?", Luna just remember that fact about dreams, the dreamer has to be there if she can access the dream.

"C-correct."

"Anyway, did you think about my deal?"

"Yes I have but first, I wanna see what you can do," a smirk fell across Shades face.

You see, just the day before, Luna thought hard about that deal, she wanted to know how his powers would help in a situation so she wanted to test it out the next night on all the types of dreams.

"Oh," Shade got up, "What do you want me to do?"

~OlO~

Luna and Shade hid in the shadows in a dream of happiness. The foal was playing with her family. They were celebrating her birthday.

"So what can you do in these types of dream besides turning this into a Nightmare?" Shade closed his eye and raised his hoof, pointing it at the foal. When Luna saw it, she dropped her jaw. At first she thought it was ordinary, the foal was being handed a present and when she opened it, a puppy poked it head out and licked the foals face.. "H-how did you do that?"

"It's a dream, anything can happen but it takes a lot of energy to do such a thing," It took Luna a while for her to get over the fact that Shade could do that, she never interfered with happy dreams since there was no problem, but she never had thought of making dreams like these even better.

"Okay, lets go."

The next one was a wet dream, The two of them hid in the shadows again and they could here pleasurable moans. "Okay, now how about this dream?" She turned to look at Shade but could see a blush form on his face, Luna also noticed that her cheeks were warm as well. Shade closed his eyes and added one of his hoofs to cover them and the other pointed at the dreamer. "Oh, YES!" Luna saw erotic things there, "Okay, we are done here!" She and Shade were gone to the next dream, Shade could not believe he did that.

"Now the last type of dream, the Nightmare" Luna and Shade could see a foal being chased by a Cyclops, Luna turned and looked at Shade, but he was nowhere to be seen. "Shade?" Luna looked down at the foal and the Cyclops, he wasn't there. The foal was backed against a wall, he closed his eyes and looked away. Oh no, Luna swooped in and put the foal on her back. The Cyclops had just completely missed them and smashed the wall.

"Princess Luna!" he started hugging her. "Thank you!" The princess landing yards away from the Cyclops.

"Its okay now," the foal's face of joy was soon replaced by terror.

"Look out!" Luna turned around to see and saw the Cyclops about to pound her in the ground. She moved swiftly, grabbed the foal, and put him and her back. She made a swift dash into an alley way.

~OlO~

The cyclops put his fists together, up in the air, that's when it heard a dragon roar. The cyclops turned around and saw a dragon, a black scaly dragon, 10 feet tall. The dragon breathed dark fire and turned the cyclops into ash. "Ace that's enough," Shade came down off the dragons back and walked towards Luna. She was still unconscious. He pick her up and carried over to his dragons back. He jumped up on the dragon and flew up in the sky. He looked down at the foal from above and pointed at him. The scenery changed and Shade was back in the real world. "Lets go ace, lets get the princess back to her castle."

Luna woke up, in her bed. She got up and opened her blinds. The sun shining and it looked like it was mid-day. But... How? She knew that the last time she was knocked out in a dream, she found herself in her usual place where she checks on dreams, laying on the floor. She slapped her face and could tell she was in the real world.

Luna's door creaked open. "Is everything alright sister?" Luna looked up and saw her sister.

"Yes sister, everything is fine."

"Okay then," Celestia closed the door behind her, she could hear her sister going back to bed. Celestia finally knew something was on her sister’s mind. She could feel it.
