Canterlot High

"Belle." Someone paws at my face. "Belle. Belle. Belle. Belle."

"Nng. Wha...?" I open my eyes.

Luna smiles a toothy grin. "Mornin'!"

"Ugh." I pick up the black cat and relocate her so I can sit up. "Luna, did you figure out anything about the princess?"

Luna takes a deep breath. "My memory...is somewhat clouded." She admits. "I...I don't know why, but..." She sighs. "It feels like the princess should be from the moon, but...I can't quite recall if that's true or not..."

"She has to be from the moon, right?" I ask, rubbing her on the head. "You're name is Luna. Would it really be Luna if you weren't from the moon?"

She laughs. "Good point."

I yawn. "Hey, Luna?"

"Yeah?"

"Have you seen this emblem before?" I pick up a pad of paper and a pen from my nightstand, and I do my best to draw the emblem Celestia has in her office.

"Of course." Luna says. "That's the symbol your dorm manager's older sister always put on everything, right?" Luna ducks her head suddenly and yowls.

"Luna?! What's wrong?!"

"I...I..." She yowls again. "Agh...my head hurts...it hurts so bad!"

"Ohgodohgodohgod, what do I do?!"

"You can't...do anything...Belle..." She hisses. "I'm....remembering...something..." She falls over to the side and sighs.

I wait a few minutes before speaking. "Luna?"

"Yeah, Belle?"

"Are you okay now?"

"Yes. Yes Belle, I'm okay now."

"Oh good." I get out of my bed. "What was it...you were remembering?"

"I don't know." she replies. "I didn't...I couldn't..." she sighs. "Just...don't worry about it, Belle. I'm alright now."

"O-okay..."

Saturday, January 5, 2015/ Afternoon

Today has been pretty uneventful. I spend the day in my room playing on my phone and occaisionally wandering downstairs for food. All the while, that Button Mask from the other night is on my mind...

Oh crap. How could I forget? I already have a boyfriend. And I...really like him. So why...? Button Mask seems really familiar, though...like I've known him my whole life. I drift into a really, really uneasy sleep.

Eos! Eos, where are you?

Another one of these? I think. Who is Eos? I try to yell. Instead, what comes out of my mouth is, Tithonus, can you hear me?

Follow the sound of my voice, Eos!

Tithonus, I...I can't! White light appears all around me and sucks me in. TITHONUS!!!

I sit up in bed, drenched in sweat and panting. Evening fell long ago, though it felt like I had only been under for a few moments. Memories of the dream are rapidly fading away into nothing. I can only remember one name...

"Tithonus..."

"Belle?" Kitty-Luna walks into my room. "Dear, are you alright? You look very...shooken up."

"I'm fine." I reply. "Just had a...nightmare, is all."

"I see." Luna eyes me for a moment. "Have you, by any chance...remembered anything yet? From your past life?"

"I..." After a moment, I shake my head. "No. Nothing."

"Hm..." Luna nods. "If you do, Belle, you need to tell me right away. Okay?"

I nod back. "Alright."

Luna smiles. "Come along, then! Dinner was called quite a while ago, but no one really felt like coming up to get you..."

"Aw, crap!" Noticing how hungry I am, I leap out of bed and take off for the dining room.

Saturday, January 5, 2015/ Nighttime

The whole dorm gathers in the living room to watch a movie, calledBack to the Past, and Luna makes popcorn smothered in butter. Kitty-Luna curls up in my lap and falls asleep. Halfway through the movie, I notice the moon-shaped bald spot on her head...glowing.

Could she be...remembering something? I ask myself.

After the movie, we all turn in.
