It's Nightmare Night. It's going to be just like any other. That's what Luna thought as she took a calm walk through the Everfree Forest. Even if she was attacked by any sort of creature, she could be able to fend off herself. Her sister was wary about her traveling through the forest, though, and believes that her little sister wouldn't be able to keep herself safe. But, good ol' Luna assured Celestia that she was going to be alright.
She with the mane of pure starlight finds herself making her way to the Nightmare Moon statue. She didn't know why, but she felt a strange presence there. The Everfree was actually beautiful that night. Slowing down, Luna decided to take in more of her surroundings. The leaves on the trees were all glistening, and the Everfree seemed brighter than it normally is. More moonlight was able to escape through the thick canopy of leaves, allowing for more light than normal. Luna comes across a patch of Poison Joke. Knowing how bad these plants are, she unfurls her wings, flies over the patch, and lands softly on the other side, barely making a sound. Only a few bushes were blocking her path, beyond the aforementioned bushes, her destination.
Just as Luna makes it to the bushes, she freezes in place.
A noise.
The sound of a twig breaking, to be exact.
She looks down at her hooves clad in royal shoes, and finds no twig even close to them. Luna peeks through a hole in one of the bushes, revealing five anthropomorphic creatures standing by the Nightmare Moon statue. One had crazy wacko hair (not able to rival Pinkie's mane, though), another had hair that looked like a wave going to a side, another had hair like a wave going backwards, another had hair kinda like the one I described before, and had a slight beard. The last had hair that was spiky and had a slight beard, as well.
"Oh myyyyyyy, what on Earth is this place?" The one with the crazy hair asked, in a strange accent that resembled a Trottingham one.
"It seems like an absolute dump. Where is the city? The stage, the fans?" The one with the spiky hair said, in the same accent as the last guy that spoke.
"Dunno. And what is this statue supposed to be of, anyway?" The guy with the side-wave hair asked. They all seem to have the same accent
"It seems like a demented horse in freaky armor..." The guy with the back wave said. Yup, they all have the same accent.
Luna gasped. She took a step back.
Snap.
"What was that!?" All the five boys say in unison, looking around frantically. One of them spots Luna.
"Oi! You there! Mind telling us where we are?" Luna was in shock. She didn't dare move.
"Come on, guys!" The guy with the back wave and slight beard said, heading towards the bush Luna was hiding behind, his friends following behind him soon after. Luna's eyes widened. Maybe she shouldn't talk to these creatures? But... They would probably die in the Everfree without her help. So, she decided to sit down and wait for the strange creatures to get to her. One of the boys made the whole Luna was peeking through bigger, allowing the boys to see her completely. At the sight of Luna, the guy with the crazy hair jumped back in shock.
"What the heck is that thing!?" He said, almost screamed.
"Shut up, Harry! Can't you see you're scaring it?" Luna's face changed from one to shock to a face that says, 'We are not amused.'
"Forgive my friend, allow me to introduce us. I'm Zayn Malik, that's Harry Styles, that's Louis Tomlinson, that's Niall Horan, and that's Liam Payne," 'Zayn' says, pointing to each of the boys as he tells Luna their names.
"This is stupid, Zayn," Harry says, "We don't even know if it can talk."
Well, that was rude. Of course Luna can talk! Luna's face changed from one of unamusement to one of annoyance.
"I'll have you know that I can in fact talk!" Luna says, not wanting to hide the annoyance in her voice.
"See?" Zayn said with a smirk. Harry was in complete shock, and the other three boys were trying not to laugh at his face as Zayn adds, "Do you have a name?"
"I in fact do. I am known formally as Princess Luna, but those that are close call me Luna. You are new to me, so you know me as Princess Luna, and shall address me as such."
"Nice to meet ya, Princess Luna!" Zayn happily said, reaching out his weird hoof to Luna, presumably for a hoofshake. Luna hesitates, but slowly brings up her hoof and slips it into his own. He wraps the weird stick things that are around his hoof around Luna's, and shakes their hooves up and down.
"Your hoof is unbelievably soft. And why do you have manes, but no fur? What are you?" Luna questioned after Zayn let go of her hoof.
"Oh! We are human beings, and these are hands," He says, waving his so called hands in front of Luna.
"Hey, Luna-"
"Princess Luna," Luna says, giving Harry a glare.
"Yeah yeah, whatever, is there a town or something nearby? We were supposed to perform tonight, but then we ended up here," Harry says, looking really bored. This earned a slap from Liam.
"What?" Harry questioned, "I really want to sing. I can just feel it in my chords."
"Yes, there is a town nearby. I can lead you creatures to it." Luna gave them all an annoyed look.
"Fine," they all said in unison.
Luna sighs happily once she sets her eyes on the small town. The boys were getting restless and whiny, especially Harry, and it was annoying Luna to no end. She picked up her pace, almost at a galloping speed, leaving the boys to try and catch up. Luna is at the town in under a minute, and she walks happily to a random stage in the middle of town that was conveniently there. The middle of town was surprisingly empty.
About seven minutes later, the five boys walk up to the stage Luna is standing by. They all walk onto the stage, and Luna sits down in front of it. She closes her eyes, chanting a spell in her head, and soon her horn glows. A tether comes out from the tip of her horn, followed by countless others, and the tethers reach out all across the town. Soon afterwards, a large amount of ponies, young and old alike, were walking towards the stage and sitting around the princess of the night. A light green unicorn spotted the five boys on stage, let out a long gasp, and fainted.
"Uhm, hi, every...pony?" The crowd looked at each other with questioning faces.
"We are One Direction. And, we will be performing, I guess. But, we need some music," Liam said, looking around the crowd. A white unicorn with purple glasses trots up to the stage and goes backstage. She emerges soon after with a mobile turntable.
"I'm only helping you guys since I'm bored. And I wanna see what you're made of," she said, pointing at the five boys in front of her. Louis walks up to the unicorn and hands her a blank disk with the word, 'KARAOKE' written on it in permanent marker. Louis walks back to the other five boys, and scratches his head.
"We still need microphones!" He says, pretending to be baffled.
The pony at the turntable sighs unhappily before going backstage again. She comes out levitating five microphones. She shoves the angrily at the boys, who gladly accept them. The unicorn returns to her place behind the turntable and puts in the disk. A guitar starts playing, and the boys start singing when the time comes.
Thw first line is sung, and Luna's face contorts into one of amazement at the talent, already.
Next line. Okay. Quite good so far.
After half of the next line, Luna felt herself falling into a trance. She felt her eyes close after the next part of the line was sung.
The chorus is sung. Luna's eyes snap open after that. Crazy weird and horrible techno music starts playing as they continuously repeat the word, 'nobody'. Luna, now out of her trance, looks around at the rest of the ponies, either clad in costumes, or in pajamas. They all looked like they were about to fall into a happy sleep, shown clearly by their closed eyes and the corners of their mouths turned up. Luna looks back up at the five boys, who were singing the first verse again. Luna's face contorts into one of disgust.
Luna now notices how horrible their hair looks. So... Ew. Luna's face becomes even more disgusted than before. For Everypony else, the song ended as soon as it started, but for Luna, she felt like it lasted for eighty eight days. She now officially hates 'One Direction'.
More like Wrong Direction.
Luna looks at all the ponies, who now had strange swirls in their eyes, and we're all frowning, sad that the song had ended. The light green unicorn from before jumped onto stage and clamped into Harry's leg, her eyes literally love hearts.
This won't end well.
"Harry is MINE!" Rainbow Dash shouts, giving Twilight a glare.
"Fine! Can I have Zayn, then?" Twilight was also giving Rainbow a glare.
"Dibs on Louis!" Pinkie says happily.
"I call Liam!" Applejack shouts.
"I shall have Niall," Rarity says calmly.
"But... What about me?" Fluttershy says, looking around at the other six ponies in the room.
"YOU CANT HAVE ANY!" They all shout in unison, causing Fluttershy to shrink.
"okay..."
Luna sighs angrily, "Why art thou even fightingest over a situation as sillieth has this?"
"Because they're all so HAWT," they all say in unison.
Luna groaned, "Thou must knoweth that thine minds shall be corrupted by their horrible chords!"
"Who cares?" Rainbow says, "It's fun!"
Luna growled, "We shall get riddeth of thine problem!" Her horn glowed, and she disappeared in a bright flash.
"Well. That just happened. So, what should we chat about next?" Rainbow asked, looking at all her friends hopefully. Spike randomly walks through the room, but, before he leaves, he quietly says, "I still prefer Green Doe."
He recieved icy glares from the entire Mane 6. If the term 'shooting daggers' was to be taken seriously, Spike would be in shreds.
Luna appeared on the stage, right in front of One Direction. They all look to her with smiles. Zayn walks up to her and tries in vain to Ruffles her mane, "Lulu! Come back for another song?"
Luna growled and punched Zayn's hand away, causing him to rub it soon afterwards, and she gives the boys an icy glare.
Drums and a guitar picked up in the background, playing very fast.
Luna started to sing a song, venting all her anger into this one song, as well as subconsciously turning into Nightmare Moon.
When done, she was breathing so heavily that smoke was coming out of her nostrils, and her eyes had turned completely white, and she had completely transformed into Nightmare Moon.
"LEAVE THIS PLACE AND NEVER COME BACK."
NMM started chanting a spell out loud, and her horn started glowing, very bright. The boys shielded their eyes from the light.
Finally, after two minutes of intense chanting, NMM let the spell glow, and all went bright.
After five seconds of pure white everywhere, everything went back to the way it should be, and One Direction was gone. Many ponies walk out of their homes, questioning their reality. Luna transforms back into herself, and she falls limp on the stage. That transformation sapped all of her energy.
"Why am I wearing this ugly shirt?" Big Mac asked himself as he looked at himself.
"This doll I absolutely disgusting," Rarity says, levitating the doll she mentioned, and making it shrivel up into tiny pieces.
Luna opens up one eye, noticing that her mane has gone back to its short, light blue state. She has been sapped of all her magic, too. She looks around the town, and sighs happily at the sight of it all. One Direction shall no longer be a problem.
"Awww.... No more pony love..."
"Shut up Zayn, you stupid brony!"
