Daydreaming

Zzzzzzzz....

“Princess! Wake up!”

“.... Huh, I AM AWAKE I AM AWAKE!” said Princess Celestia. I didn’t know I was daydreaming. Celestia turned her head to see that it wasn’t her who the guard was talking to.

“Princess Luna, wake up. You need you lower the moon and raise the sun!”

But that’s my job! I thought.

“Oh, I am up General Starscream. Where is Shining Armor? He is going to be late for his magic lessons!” said Luna.

Huh? Hey! Twilight is the student you hay-brain! And she’s my student! I thought to myself. Then as I saw Luna get up she had MY CUTIEMARK!?

“Shining is in his library Princess,” said a new guard who just entered the room.

IT WAS TWILIGHT?!?!?!

“Thank you, Twilight Sparkle. You being the Captain of the guard I want you to choose some pony to fetch your younger brother.”

THAT'S NOT RIGHT!

“Now I’ll raise the sun...” Luna replied.

“LUNA! STOP PRETENDING TO BE ME!!” I shouted. I went over to her but ran right through Luna.

“Huh? Why did I run through you, Luna?”

There was no reply...

“Luna..?”

Still no reply.

“Luna! LUNA CAN YOU HEAR ME!”

I put my hoof on her shoulder, it fell right through her? Why am I here, yet not here. She just walked off. Soon meeting up with Shining Armour. AM I A GOST?!Nope I am not, I can’t go through walls, wait no, I can I continued then to trot through the halls to follow Luna. After Luna was told that Twi- no, Shining had some important studies to share Luna went to him her self and replied to the gaurd,”Thank you Dumbeldore, you may continue your duties.

I followed. Soon she went into Twilight’s,wait, no... ‘Shining’s’ old house before I sent her to Ponyville. But this all happened in the past?! “Princess Luna!! Look, see tomorrow the Mare in the Moon, Nightmare Moon is going use the the stars to aid in her escape and take over Equestria forcing enternal night. Amd I never knew you had a sister, Princess Celestia too.”

“No that is an old mare’s tale. And to prepare for the Summer Sun Celebration, you are going to check on everything in pony, ok Shining Armour? And none of this Mare in the Moon nonsense ok?”

“Yes, Princess Luna...”

”THAT IS MY JOB AND IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE TWILIGHT WHO GOES! NOT SHINING ARMOUR!” I shouted, but no pony could hear me. I needed to get to the bottom of things, who had placed this spell on me? I ran right through the walls not caring at all then I took off and went into the Canterlot Archives. Then I recognise the gaurd and asked the gaurd standing and gaurding the Archive(Boy I love to use the word gaurd!),”Private Flash, can you help me find the...” Oh, he’s asleep, I thought and forgit they wouldn’t hear me anyway. Then another gaurd walked in.

“Comander Yoda! Can you help me?!” I asked. “No, okay, forgot they cannot hear me.” I walked into the firstrow of books and tried to take on out but it would no work, my hoof went right through it, again. “Uurrgh! Why won’t my hoof work!” I moaned, then I brightened up my magic with my horn and tried that way... yes!.. yes... Yes..! Yes..! YEs! YEs! YEEEEAAAASSSSSS! NOPE! My magic doesn’t even work! Why, cruel world! Why do I have to be stuck like this, trapped in TIME forever! Why, oh why... ME! Of all ponies! ME?!

“Urgh,” I moaned.... meanwhile...

Twinkle Twinkle Prankster Luna!

Pranking your sister, but why?

Up in the clouds,

oh so high,

stood a Alicorn,

I don’t know why,

Twinkle Twinkle Prankster Luna!

Pranking your sister, but why?

“Hazaa! This will be the perfect prank, Celestia is daydreaming. I am giving her a Daymare of her life!” said Luna up her her cloud as she watched her sister try to figure out what was going on. Princess Luna was pretending to be asleep in her own bed while she was messing up her sister’s day. “Yes! And with that changing cutie mark thing this will make perfect sense as a nightmare when she wakes up thinking it was a natural dream! Thank you Discord for this idea! Now lets snooze, ahh!” she stretched and few asleep.

“Grrreee-Aaah! Why can’t I do anything” shouted Princess Celestia from her spot seat on the floor in the Archives. “I am just SOOO frustrated right now! GrrrAAAAHHHH!!!” I flew up and down up and down then I decided to just go and rest on a cloud. I flew up higher and higher and high. Until I reached a nice, soft natural cloud, I was still below it so I flew above it and found out Luna was resting on the cloud, knowing she wouldn’t be bothered I went and hovered down. As soon as I touched Luna she woke up with a start.

“Huh!? Discord!? Did you wake me!?!? Is Celestia’s daydream prank worki-“ then she realised I was in front of her. She gulped, then started tapping her hooves together.”Uhh, Tia, this isn’t what it looks like..”

“What PRANK!!??” I asked. She was so frightened and almost speechless.

“Uhh, well. You see, to.. get you back for spilling hot cocoa on me on my silk dress right before we went to that royal gaurd.. what’s his name? Aahh! Silver Surfer’s retirement party. Remember?” Luna replied.

“Ahh, yes, pranks at their perfection! That was a goodie!” replied Celestia,”But still, this one is went a bit out of hand Luna, I am supposed to be in Las Pegasus Court to take care of and important case. A young dragon had been arrested after attempted to destroy a whole building, amd was found in Las Pegasus 2 days ago. This is serious! Remember!”

“Sorry Tia...”

“Tia! Tia! TIA!!!” somepony shouted.

Then I woke up...”Luna? How?”

“Tia, you have been daydreaming! I have had to wake you up!?”

“But, Luna, we were just chatting and in a dream just now? Weren’t we?” I asked.

“Nope, ask any guard I have been fulfilling your duties, just like yesterday when our Cutie Marks were switched,” stated Glooma

“Oh, that explains the having to go to Las Pegasus, that wasn’t even on my todo list for today!” I said, still puzzled.

As Luna walked off she met up with Discord, they giggled together.

“Great job Discord, you pretending to be me in that dream must of been amazing!” Luna laughed.

“Oh, thank you dear, she was so convinced it was real! What a hay-brain!” chuckled Discord back.
