When they got to the park, Pinkie smiled, "What do you think, Sandy? "

"It's so green and luscious.....it's kinda disturbing.....there's no rocks anywhere!!!", Sandstone exclaimed, looking around at the park, before getting out the saxophone and grinning.

And he played the saxophone, so soothing, so mellow, that everyone in the park stopped to listen. Most had droopy eyelids and a relaxed smile on their faces.

When he finished, Spike exclaimed, "Wow! That was awesome, Sandstone! What do you call that song?"

Sandstone smiled, "I call it 'Forever in Love'. And, now, I go by my stage name: Sandy P." (I don't own Kenny G and his songs!)

"Wow! That was amazing, little guy! Can you do more?", Lyra asked, walking up to the little dragon.

"I sure can! This next one is called 'The Moment'. Look out, World! Here comes Sandy P!", he beamed, starting up again on the saxophone.

A few minutes later, everyone in Ponyville was in the park listening to Sandstone walk around and play at a party Pinkie put together for no reason.

Applejack was telling Big Mac all about it, "It's amazing! It's like he's there! But you have to believe in him, otherwise you can't see him! Oh my gosh! Look it's him! Do you hear him?!?"

Big Mac smiled and said, "Eeyup!"

Twilight grinned, "Wow, maybe I should learn to play an instrument...."

Afterwards, it was getting dark, and Sandstone was getting sleepy, everyone went home.

Pinkie took Sandstone up to her room, and put him in bed, kissing his forehead and smiling, "Aww....you're so cute when you're sleepy.....good night, Sandy."

"Good night, Pinkie.....", he yawned, shutting his eyes.

He woke up all of the sudden, in a bed, in the middle of a desert. He was scared, and started screaming.

"Pinkie!!! Pa!!! Ma!!!", he cried, getting up and started walking west, "Marble!!! Maude!!! Limestone!!!"

"Sandstone!!!", cried a voice from the bottom of the dune.

Sandstone recognized that voice, "Limestone!!!", he exclaimed, running towards the bottom.

He found Pa, Ma, Maude, Marble, and Limestone in a pit of quicksand. Pa and Ma sank below the surface.

"Ma!! Pa!!", he screamed.

"Sandstone. Stay back!", Maude exclaimed, before she sank in.

He again screamed, "Maude!!!"

"Help us, Sandstone!", Marble cried, drowning in the quicksand.

"Marble!!!"

Limestone looked at him and shouted, "Don't just stand there!! Do something!!"

"I'm sorry!! I....I...I don't know what to do!!", he whimpered.

Just before she sank below, she growled, "Sandstone.....I hate...."

She was gone. They were all gone. Tears welled up in his eyes as he plopped down onto the ground and cried.

A soft hoof was placed on his shoulder, and a voice asked, "Are you okay, young one?"

He turned to find Princess Luna looking at him in concern.

"Who are you?", he said, sniffling.

"I am Princess Luna. Guardian of those who dream. Are you okay?", she replied.

"My family...they're gone!!! And Limestone.....she hates me!!", he cried, hugging her leg.

Luna hugged him back, "No......it's just a really bad dream."

"Really?", he asked.

"Really...", she smiled, "You'll wake up soon....just remember, as long as I'm in charge of the dream realm, nothing can hurt you."

He sniffed, "Thank you, Luna."

He woke up with a start. He heard voices downstairs, he went downstairs, and saw his family.

"Ma!!! Pa!!! Maude!!! Marble!!! Limestone!!!", he cried, charging them with a hug, tears in his eyes.

"Sandstone!! Hey....are you okay? Is something wrong?", Limestone asked, kissing his forehead.

"Well....I had a nightmare....", he replied.

Limestone asked, cradling him in her arms, "Do you want to talk about it?"

"Well....you guys were sinking in quicksand....and you said you hated me.", he sobbed, burying his face in her fur.

"Ohhh.....Sandstone.....you know I would never say that....I love you. And don't ever forget that! Okay?", she sighed, kissing him.

"Okay. I love you, Limestone."

"I love you too, Sandstone. Let's go home.", she smiled.

And they went home.
