Dreaming

"So I did... who are you?" Lily asked.

"I'm Princess Luna," the pony replied, causing Lily to be shocked, "I am the Princess of the Night."

"Night?" Lily looked around. "So you visit other people's dreams?"

"I don't know how exactly I got into your dream," Luna confessed, "but yes. I can. Would you like a turn around?"

Lily wasn't sure how to respond. In fact, she doesn't know anything about dreams at all. She could trust this pony, but should she? It was all new to Lily, so she nodded yes, and as quickly as possible, they were in a realm with a seemingly endless row of doorways. Lily looked around and tried to open one, but she stopped herself before opening the one nearest to her. She then faced up at Luna.

"Can you take me to Twilight's dream?" Lily requested.

"Hmm." Luna placed a hoof up her chin. "Let me see..."

Lily looked out as the doors shifted until it stopped on a crystal door, and Lily pressed an ear to the door. She discovered a voice of a familiar mare which she met when she was awake that day. She smiled, and asked permission if she could go into her dream.

"I can see why not?" Luna opened the door and they both went in.

As they entered, Lily looked at Twilight who was barely walking around, dancing. Afterward a few seconds, Twilight stopped and noticed Luna. She jumped in shock and was more shocked to visit Lily, who was waving hi.

"How?" Twilight asked.

"She... um... led me to you?" Lily lied. Luna then let out a soft laugh as Twilight raised an eyebrow. "I only wanted to see you, but I honestly didn't expect her to come, then all I saw was this place, and then, and then..."

"At least you met Princess Luna," said Twilight, "I reckon you only know my name."

Lily flinched and stepped back. "You're... also a Princess?"

"You don't know much about ponies," Twilight asked back, "do you?"

"No... not exactly..." Lily blushed. "I... well it was obvious you were ponies... I just don't mind the horns and wings..."

At that point, Luna noticed something. Something was on Lily's pocket, and she pulled it out. It was a cell phone, which caused her eyes widen. The two ponies looked at the machine and looked at Lily. Lily looked around the phone and clicked the unlock button, and looked at the cover.

Instead of the regular swipe-to-unlock screen, it showed a swipe-to-awaken screen. She looked around and kept the cell phone as she had utterly no idea why it appeared.

"What was that?" Twilight asked.

Lily looked at Twilight and sighed. "A cellular phone. Something a few humans invented for easy access to other people far away. It's just that the phone's my way to wake up, apparently."

"What do you mean?" Luna asked, puzzled.

"I can't explain," Lily replied, "and I guess it's morning."

Luna shifted position as she realized that the sun had just brought up. "Huh. You're right, dear human."

Lily then smiled as she yawned. "See you soon, Princess Luna and Twilight," Lily said, taking the phone from her pocket. "I'm going to your place soon, Twi."

"Catch you later!" Twilight waved her hoof as Lily swiped her finger across the screen, which caused her to vanish on the Dreamscape.

Luna then got hold of the magic that was employed and wondered how humans got that specific kind of magic. As Luna exited the Dreamscape, she couldn't help but think about the humans living alongside the one she just came across. She questioned how many humans are there, and what she could do with a special human guard. She quickly banished the idea as she was already thinking about security when she doesn't even know where Lily was, and what the comet brought.

Lily woke up on the right side of the bed. As she skipped off the modified pod, she couldn't think, but remember the dream she had. She couldn't even believe whom in the fact that she used inception on Twilight for them to visit each other. Her joy simply vanished as Jack sat beside her.

"Hey Lily," Jack stated, "you slept comfortably, even though you slept late."

Lily was shocked about his claim. "How did you know...?"

"I heard you talking at midnight," Jack responded, "I just wonder to whom..."

Lily shifted position and looked intently at Jack. "Don't tell anyone about this, okay?"

"Sure," Jack promised, "tell it."

"It was a winged unicorn pony named Twilight Sparkle," Lily replied, "and while I'm asleep, another pony named Princess Luna."

Jack looked around and smiled. "I guess we all share secrets, eh? Come out, miss Applejack!"

"Oh," called a pony with a Stetson hat, "they're departed now, have they Jack?" The pony then noticed Lily who waved back. "Oh. Hi. Ah'm Applejack. Friend of Twilight."

"Nice to meet you, Applejack." Lily bowed her head slightly in respect as Applejack lowered her hat in deference as well. "How'd you end up here anyway?"

"Ah sneaked my way in," the pony with a hat replied, "cause why not?"

Lily looked at Jack and gently laughed. She then faced Applejack and grinned.

"Tell me, where does Twilight live? I want to visit her, please," Lily requested.
