Star's Gaze and Night's Teacher
Tomorrows Test
Previous ChapterThe sun came up after a while sending the Astronomer to her bed. Crawling in, Sky Gazer got comfortable, and set her alarm for a bit earlier, 6:30 instead just so she hopefully didn't keep the Princess waiting. As sleep was beginning to take her under, her thoughts drifted around in her mind, why did Princess Luna take an interest in her?, and what do these test confirm? were common. Eventually, She fell asleep, her dreams carried her away to a Canterlot, where she was plopped into a library, where a purple pony was pacing around, looking for books. Sky Gazer raised an eyebrow, "Why am I here with Princess Twilight Sparkle?" She stayed where she was until the purple pony noticed her,
"What are you doing here? This is supposed to be off limits to visitors of the castle?" Twilight demanded, Sky Gazer gasped, and looked around before noticing she was wearing saddle bags and Twilight was a Unicorn not a Alicorn meaning this dream is taking place before that.
"I was told to bring the books I had updated about Astronomy here, I'm sorry if this is the wrong library." Sky Gazer said quickly. Twilight looked her over carefully before frowning,
"Fine, put them over there on that table over there," Twilight pointed her hoof to a table in front of a few bookshelves. Sky Gazer nodded, and walked over to the table emptying out her saddle bags placing the books there.
"I have a question, Why are you an Astronomer if you're not a Unicorn?" Twilight asked, "Why is this shocking?! Is it not normal?" Sky Gazer thought angerly before answering the question.
"Because I've had a passion for Space and Star Gazing since I was a filly," Twilight nodded before returning to finding her books muttering something about the Elements of Harmony, and The Longest of the Thousandth Year. Suddenly her dream blurred and Sky Gazer appeared in cloud of mist, and stars. Looking further in the distance, she saw Princess Luna facing her. She trotted over, and bowed once at a reasonable spot in front of Princess Luna. Who smiled,
"Greetings Sky Gazer," She said simply,
"Hello, Um where am I?" Sky Gazer asked, looking around,
"Well, we pulled thou out of your dream to ask thy a question before tonight hits,"
"Aright, what is it?"
"We need to know two things actually, One: Does the way we speak bother you?, and Two: How would you also like to learn from me personally?" Princess Luna asked sternly
"Well to be honest, yes it kinda does, but I don't really care much, and yes that would be nice," Sky Gazer answered,calmly. Princess Luna nodded before Sky Gazer's vision went black.
The alarm shrieked loudly as 6:30 flashed on it, Sky Gazer groaned turning over to hit the off button. She laid there for a moment, thinking about her dream. Sky Gazer pulled herself up and out of bed, but this time only brushed her hair before hurrying down into the observatory. Sky Gazer scrambled to get everything together, and out to the balcony. When 7:00 o'clock rolled around Sky Gazer was ready and already noticing the difference in the stars positions. She pulled out her ink and quill, and began tracking the stars new location. After a good 4 hours worth of the starring at the night sky, Sky Gazer had quite a few pages of stars tracking notes and maps. She sighed, she looked up at the sky making sure that the stars were no longer moving. Then she stood up ,and carried the journals to an empty shelf, placing them on their new home. Sky Gazer continued with the rest of her work until around 3:00am, when Princess Luna appeared in the observatory, Sky Gazer bowed as she approached,
"May I see who you thought the stars were moving," Princess Luna asked tone slightly eager. Sky Gazer hurried over to the bookshelf, and brought Princess Luna the journals. She when presented with them wrapped a magical aura around them, and opened them examining them closely. Sky Gazer was very tense, and just to make it less awkward, she tended to other work. Princess Luna cleared her throat signaling that she was done, Sky Gazer walked over, filled with anxiety. Princess Luna had a stern face on before smiling.
"Well done Sky Gazer, everything is correct, maybe alittle off by tiny amounts here, and there, but it was right," Princes Luna praised,
"Really! thats a relief, I frightened there for a moment," Sky Gazer let out the breath she had be holding in. Princess Luna smiled before turning to leave,
"I will be changing it again tomorrow same time, hopefully if my duties don't hang me up," Then she flew out, off the balcony. Sky Gazer screamed with excitement/happiness, and ran around a bit falling onto her bed. she sighed,
"I can't believe I got them all right, I wonder what else will happen tomorrow?" And with that last major thought Sky Gazer got up, and returned to her work.
