Princess Luna walked into her sister's room. Celestia hadn't risen the sun yet so Luna would have to get her out of bed. She opened the door to revile her sister laying in bed

Her main was a mess and her eyes seemed dimmer then normal. She looked at Luna and uttered a low cough, "hello Lulu." Celestia smiled.

"Sister are you sick?" Luna asked.

Her sister nodded, "yes Luna, I'm very sick, do you think you could send a letter to Twilight and her friends for me, I know I haven't sent any in a long time but I'd appreciate it if you did that for me."

Luna walked into her own room and began the letter.

Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle

Celestia is asking us to send you this letter. We know you have not received any letter in a long time but we also hope you will come to the castle because Celestia is requesting you and your friend's company.

Sighed,
Princess Luna.

She rolled up the letter and sent it.

Twilight and her friends where all board at the friendship castle. Rarity was braiding Fluttershy's main, Apple Jack, PInkie Pie and Rainbow Dash where using the map to play a war game and Twilight was reading a book. Spike wadled into the room, he began to chock untill a letter finally escaped from his mouth.

"Celestia hasn't done that in a long time!" Twilight stood up, she then levitated the letter towards her. Her eyes guided across the paper slowly. She gasped, "Luna says Celestia wants to see us."

Once they arrived they all gave Luna a look of confusion, "what's wrong Luna, has Teirk escaped again?" Twilight asked.

"Did the changlings try to attack?" Rainbow Dash seemed worried.

"Did the world's supply of frosting run out?" Pinkie Pie gasped.

"Did-" Rarity began.

"No, our sister is sick, she requests your presence." Luna pointed to her sister's room.

The main 6 walked inside, Celestia looked at them with delight, "thank you girls-" she coughed, "-for coming."

"What are you sick with?" Fluttershy asked in a whisper.

"Sun Spots." Celestia replied.

"What's that?" Rarity tilted we head.

"It's like pony pocs, but black instead of red."

"Your not covered in black spots as far as I can tell." Suspicion rang in the blue pegasus's voice.

Small black spots appeared all over the white alicorn. She coughed again. She then had a sneezing fit.

"What's the cure sugar cube?" Apple Jack asked.

"The magical golden flower is the only cure." Celestia coughed again, "you can find it at the top of Willy-Nilly Mountain.

So they went to the oddly named mountain.

They stood at the bottom of the mountain. The sky was so beautiful even at night. Suddenly the clouds turned Dark and lightning struck at the mountain. And as quickly as that happened, the mountain went back to normal, more clouds appeared and it began to rain.

"That's a goofy mountain." Pinkie laughed.

"I bet Discord lives up there." Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes.

Fluttershy nodded hopefully, "yeah."

Her friends looked at her in confusion.

They then began their climb and search for the flower.

Snow fell on the ground.. Our 6 heroines tried to keep their hooves and but it proved to be hard. Rainbow Dash shivered then looked Twilight. The purple alicorn seemed to be thinking hard.

"Regret this yet?" She asked her friend.

"No, we're doing this for Celestia, I'd never regret helping her!" Twilight shook her head.

Rainbow Dash again rolled her eyes. Suddenly a middle size orange dragon with brown hair and purple wings flew towards them. They 6 friends jumped back. They then noticed the magical golden flower in her hair.

"Hello, hello, hello!" The dragon smiled, "I'm Wimsey Weatherbe!"

"Ohm..." they backed up.

"Ya know, four of you look familiar..." She smiled, then she noticed she was scaring them, "you really don't remember me?"

"Nope, oh but you look like a good new friend!" Pinkie Pie began to bounce.

"You must be Pinkie Pie." The dragon stood with a sweet smile and her claws behind her back.

"Yeah, but how do you know my name...anyway, this is Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Apple Jack, Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy!" Pinkie smiled.

"The Rainbow Dash I knew didn't have wings..."

"Ohhhhhh, you must be talking about my little pony generation 4.5!" Pinkie laughed.

"Huh?" Everypony except Pinkie Pie gave a confused look.

"Don't worry she dose that all the time." Twilight rolled her eyes.

"Well anyway what brings you to my mountain?"

"Were looking for a magical golden flower...like the one in your hair." Rarity frowned sadly.

"Oh, well it's the only one..." Whimsy looked down.

"Well could we have it anyway? Our princess is sick and this flower is the only cure." Fluttershy whispered softly.

"NO!" Whimsy grabbed at the flower.

"Hey look here, we didn't want to come to your stupid mountain anyway so you'd better give us that flower!" Rainbow Dash snapped.

"But, I can't," tears formed in Whimsy's eyes, "I found it fair and square!"

"Im sorry my friend is kind of grouchy sometimes, but our princess is sick..." Fluttershy also started to cry.

"I'm not giving you ponies anything, last time I did they broke there PROMISS after a while!"

"Sometimes life takes a toll on promises." Apple Jack smiled with understanding.

"We can get you another flower." Rarity ran to a bush and began picking some flowers.

"But this is the prettiest one."

"I can give you a pet from my cottage." Fluttershy smiled.

"A pet?!?" Whimsy grew exited, "like a kitty or something?"

"What ever you want."

"Well...okay." Whimsy removed the flower from her hair and gave it the ponies.

"And you can also have this." Rarity gave her a rose

"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" Whimsy flew into the air as she smelt the rose.

They returned with their mains soaked in rain. Twilight slowly levitated the flower to the princess. Celestia smiled as she retrieved the yellow item.

"Thank you so much girls!" Celestia hadn't had the flower long but she seemed like she wasn't sick at all.

The princess took the petals off the stem and put them in a cup. She then levitated a tea pot and poured the tea into the cup. She sighed as she took a sip.

"Its amazing in tea!" Celestia took another sip.

"You mean we went all that way to get that flower so you could have some tea!?" Rainbow Dash yelled.

"Well, you girls are faster at doing stuff then my guards, it takes you girls like half and hour to do what I ask."

"Good day Celestia!" Twilight said as she and her friends left the castle in anger.

Celestia watched in awe as her cup became surrounded by a blue aura and floated behind Rarity. Twilight's magenta aura slammed the doors shut. Celestia looked to her sister for advice. Luna gave her a mean look.

"We shouldn't have gotten up just to wake you dear sister, we could have used this as an opportunity to take over Equestria!" Luna stormed off to her chambers.
