Celestia paced around the royal court, the inane worries of the pony folk passing straight over her ruffled mane.
She was rife with worry, her Sister had not been seen or heard of in over a week. A Week! Not since her release from the evil that was nightmare moon has she gone missing for such a long time. Especially since Nightmare.
She looked down at her mane and its tangle of split ends and just wanted to scream. How on earth could she be expected to deal with the worries of court when all that she could think of was her sister. Who knew where in Equestria she was?
Maybe something had happened? A Manticore perhaps? or maybe a Cockatrice? No of course not, for all her failings and weaknesses Luna was a royal Princess, and such creatures were below even Luna.
Celestia sighed as she looked back at all the ponies waiting to meet her, it was going to be a long day indeed.
Day? that was it, by all that was good and holy, Luna had to be alright. After all the day and night cycle had not been interrupted. That meant something at least. Didn't it?
With the knowledge that Luna was safe, even if still missing, Celestia managed to relax. It was small relief, but it was enough to get her through the day and pay small enough attention to not make a total mess of the court. Of course she had told a blind baker to get a new perspective on things and a narcoleptic farmer who had lost his sheep that maybe he should sleep on the issue, but all in all it had been mostly successful.
With the end of the day in sight, Celestia made her way to her bed chambers, hoping to take a small dash of her own advice and sleep on the problem. Things always worked out better after a good nights sleep on the issue and she had disbanded the court for the next day. She knew by this time tomorrow she would find Luna, or her whereabouts at least.
As she reached the corridor where her court led of to Luna's tower a strange but all too familiar noise reached her ears. It appeared to be coming from Luna's tower, but that was impossible. Night court didn't start for at least another hour. Intrigued Celestia made her way towards the source of the noise.
Celestia entered the Night court, it was deserted as she suspected but there was that noise again, it was the sound of hooves but where was it coming from? She scanned the room and found an open door at the other side of the room. She headed towards it, taking care to not to make too much noise on the dark marble tiled floor. Not that she needed to, the sound of hooves was incredibly load now, the intruder clearly not making efforts to cover their noise.
She followed the noise to the end of the corridor, which ended in a flight of stairs. Now Celestia was confused, the only thing that was up these stairs was Luna's private bed chamber, no pony could be up there. Unless? Was it Luna making those noises? Celestia climbed the stairs to investigate, and as she got closer she could hear other sounds, giggling, excited screams of 'oh my' and the occasional outburst of 'NI!'.
Celestia was worried, it did indeed sound like her sister, but why would she be acting in such a fashion? and why hadn't she appeared in nearly a week. Still fascination overcame her fear and she eventually reached the top, the doors to Luna's bed chamber greeting her.
She inched towards it and noticed a small sliver of light peeking through, so that's why she could hear her now. Luna must have opened the door for something and forgotten to shut it properly again afterwards. Despite the strange sounds she was hearing she definitely felt it was a good thing, after all it had led to her finding her sister.
She leant against the wooden door, hoping to open it a crack without Luna hearing. Unfortunately it seemed Celestia had underestimated her recent cake spree and as it happened the door opened far wider than expected and she went flying into the room. Despite this her entrance to the room might still have been silent, thanks to a well oiled door, if it wasn't for the fact she crashed into the back of Luna's sofa. The Sofa where Luna herself was sitting. The sofa where Luna was sitting and making mysterious clopping sounds and going 'NI!'.
Luna felt somepony crash into her sofa and turned her head, "Oh, Tia it's you, how wonderful for you to join us." she exclaimed. All the while her hooves will still active in front of her.
"Um Luna?" Celestia asked, slowly recovering and lifting herself from her ungraceful heap. "Are you Clopping?"
Luna nodded enthusiastically, "Of course dear sister, have you never clopped to films before?"
"To films?" Celestia was horrified, this was worse than she expected.
"Of course Tia, you cannot say you've never done this." Luna said, her face still ecstatic in the idea that her sister had joined her.
Celestia looked red in the face, "Luna! how dare you accuse me of such vulgar stuff."
Luna looked confused, "Vulgar? Oh no it's nothing like that. Its perfectly natural." she nodded, "why don't you join me?" she asked pointing to a spare seat next to her.
Celestia wanted to refuse, everything within her said she should stop, especially with her sister still rapidly moving her hooves in front of her. However, she felt herself being strangely drawn towards the chair and before she knew what was happening she was sitting there right next to Luna.
Now she was there she could see that her sister was using her hooves to clop together the two halves of what appeared to be a hairy shell. "Um Luna, what is that?"
"This?" Luna responded lifting up the two halves and Celestia nodded, "This is a coconut."
"A what?"
"A coconut, it's like a hairy fruit filled with milk and a soft fleshy interior. They are rather delicious."
Celestia looked amazed, this was something she had never seen before. "But where did you hear of such a thing?"
Luna pointed at her Television where a rather large bipedal creature wearing black armor was holding out a fish to smaller bipedal creature. "You must cut down the tallest tree in the forest with a... Herring!" it said.
Celestia sighed a huge sigh of relief, it was completely innocent after all. She leaned back in her seat and looked down, Luna was offering her two halves of a coconut for herself. "Want to join in?"
She laughed, glad it was all an innocent of mistake, "Of course I'll join you."
Luna cheered, "Huzzah, the fun has been doubled!" as she slowly placed one foreleg around her sister's shoulders.
