Midnight Shine

Luna wakes up to see the young human child she had adopted in the dreamscape and smiles when she sees the hopeful grin plastered on his face. I wonder if he thinks that was all a dream. I guess I should wake him up and find out. Luna gets out of bed and gently shakes him awake.

"Huh?" says Midnight as he stretches and sits up. Looking around he spotted Luna and smiled. He hadn't smiled like this in years.

"Good morning sleepy head." Luna says smiling playfully at him.

"Good morning." said Midnight with a yawn.

Then Luna asked him "So, did you have a good dream?".

She had a strange look on her face when she asked him this so Midnight replied with a cautious "Yes."

"So, what did you dream about?" asked Luna.

"Um it's complicated." said Midnight. He dare not hope that his dream had been real in any way.

"Really? So complicated like say; I see the nightmare you have been having for years and adopt you?"asked Luna. Then Luna burst out laughing at the look on his face.

"H-h-how did you know?" Midnight asked as he gave her a flabbergasted look.

"I am the Princess of the night I can see and enter any creatures dreams." answered the navy blue mare.

"Does this mean?" Midnight asks not even daring to finish the sentence for fear he was wrong.

"Yes, if you wish you can stay here with me." answers Luna. Upon her uttering those words a flame made up of the very sky she pushed into existence every night engulfed her and her son. "Son!" Luna cries out suddenly fearful.

"It's alright Mom." she hears her son say as he appears out of the flame. "I control this flame. See?" Midnight says as he wills the flame to disperse. "I'm sorry but I lost control of the flame due to how emotional I was." said Midnight.

"Okay just try not to let it happen again you scared me." said Luna. "Come on." said Luna walking to the door.

"Where are we going?" asked Midnight. He was still a little worried nobody had ever just shook off his powers like that.

"We are going to see an air show." said Luna dramatically.
