Celestia gets fed up during her court and has an interesting solution to the problem.

Celestia can't take it anymore. She's had enough of the stupid things that the ponies of Equestria wish her to grant them. When she snaps, who is it that has to set everything right? Why, her sister of course! That is what sisters are for, isn't it?

It's Too Early For This

Princess Celestia groaned inwardly as she saw that she still had another hour of Day Court left until she could finally have some cake. With a small, yet heavy sigh under her breath, the Sun Princess motioned for the next petitioner to come forward. The pony, a white unicorn stallion she knew all too well, who was levitating a large stack of papers beside him, began to speak in a monotone voice, “Your Highness, with all due respect, I would like to propose a lower tax rate for all nobleponies in Canterlot, and instead raise taxes for the lower class ponies. As I’m sure you’ll agree, this is the best course of action because –”

Having a great amount of difficulty resisting the urge to facehoof, Celestia leaned back in her throne to wait out what was sure to be a long speech full of stupidity. At least she would have even more of an excuse to eat nothing but cake for dinner that evening. If she even survived the next hour, that is.

Princess Luna bolted upright in her bed upon hearing a strange noise. A quick glance at her clock told her that her sister would still be in court for another half hour which meant that she would have to find the source of the mysterious noise herself. Slightly annoyed at being woken up an hour earlier than she had intended, the Princess of the Night got out of bed and went to put on her regalia. Just as she finished doing so, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a strange contraption fly by her window.

Curious, the dark blue alicorn walked out onto her balcony and scanned the skies for the unknown object. She did not have to wait long she saw it again. The only question was, what was it?

It certainly wasn’t like anything the Moon Princess had seen before. This thing appeared to be made of metal, and was a cylindrical shape with two long, almost wing-like objects protruding from the center of it. At the back of it, the metal went up in the air in a semi-triangular shape with two smaller wing-like shapes extending on either side of the upward pointing piece of metal. Underneath the longer set of wing-like objects were somewhat round things that also appeared to be the cause of the mysterious sound that had woken her up. Lastly, both sets of wing-like objects were painted in the colors of her sister’s mane, her sister’s cutie mark was displayed on the upward pointing portion, and on each side of the center portion, just ahead of the longer wing-like pieces was an eye that was identical to her sister’s.

Luna could do nothing but stand there, dumbfounded, as this contraption that bore a suspicious resemblance to her elder sister flew around shooting off rays of, well, of sunlight which caused whatever they hit to catch fire. A knock on the door to her chambers brought the dumbstruck alicorn back to her senses, and she called out, “Come in!”

A nervous looking guard entered the room, bowed, and said, “Your Majesty, I’m afraid that your sister has, well, I’m not really sure what she’s done. Although, I do believe that it is quite safe to say that Prince Blueblood may have broken her.”

With a sigh, Luna gestured to the guard to come and join her on the balcony. “Do you mean to tell me that this thing flying around that’s destroying Canterlot is actually my sister?”

The guard gulped audibly and nodded wordlessly.

“Oh, for the love of –”

Luna caught herself before she could say something that she knew she would regret, instead she was forced to be content with something much less vulgar. “I, Princess Luna of Equestria, hereby charge you with carrying out the arrest of Prince Blueblood. He is to be kept under at all times until I can deal with him. Presently, I must stop my sister before she destroys all of Canterlot. Understood?”

The guard snapped a salute, “Understood, Your Highness. I’ll see to it personally.”

The Night Princess nodded as she spread her wings and flew off in pursuit of her elder sister. Once she got close enough to the thing that her sister had become, she shouted, “Celestia! You’ve got to stop! If you keep this up, you’ll kill somepony!”

In response, six beams of sunlight shot towards her and the dark blue alicorn was forced to teleport in front of the contraption that was her sister. “Celestia! Are you kidding me right now?! Stop this ludicrous nonsense!”

A thicker beam of sunlight than all the others hit Luna directly in the chest and shoved her down towards the ground. Wings flailing helplessly, the Princess of the Night landed heavily on the roof of somepony’s shop and slid quite ungracefully off of it, hitting her head on the hard ground. She lay still for a moment, dazed, but not seriously hurt as she realized that she would have to find a better way to return her sister to her proper form.

Suddenly, she bolted to her feet, having been hit by a stroke of brilliance. She rushed into the shop that she had landed on, and commanded of the shopkeeper in the Royal Canterlot voice, “A CAKE! WE REQUIRE A CAKE THIS INSTANT!”

The mare behind the counter fainted instantaneously, and Luna was left with nopony to carry out her brilliant idea. “Well then,” she said to the empty air, “I shall just have to find a bakery, now won’t I?”

Upon exiting the shop, she did not have to walk long before she saw a stallion with a stand full of baked goods. She walked up to him and said, “I require all the cakes that you have.”

He looked surprised, but chose not to question the angry Princess before him, and instead merely gave her all seventeen cakes that he had left. As soon as she had the cakes, Luna took off again in search of her sister. It did not take long before she found the strange thing that was her sister.

Waving the cakes in front of her, she shouted, “Celestia! I brought cakes! If you want them, turn back into a pony!”

Instantly, a flash of light blinded Luna, and the next thing she knew she was being dive-bombed by the pony form of her sister. “GIVE ME THOSE CAKES!”
