Help Is What You Do

Celestia was on her way to Twilight's castle in Ponyville, there was someone who needed help but it was different from a friendship problem so she was hesitant to go to Twilight's at first until she realized that Twilight was smart and understanding when it came to anything.

Celestia got to the castle and walked in herself. She went to the library expecting to see Twilight there. When she got to the library she saw that Twilight wasnt there.

She realized where Twilight exactly was. When she got to the throne room. She saw that Twilight was organizing meetings on her planner.

Twilight saw Celestia and stood up and walked over to Celestia as she was wondering why Celestia was at the caslte. She guessed that it was serious or something important as Celestia never came to see her unless it was for those reasons.

"Princess hi...is there something wrong? Its not another villian is it? Im not doing anything else at the moment so i guess i can help you." Twilight asked beginning to worry but Celestia giggled.

"Nothing of the sort Twilight! Dont worry people in Equestria are getting along fine right now and no disturbances have been reported." Celestia laughed.

Twilight was relieved but was also confused as to why Celestia had come here then.

"If nothing is wrong in Equestria why come see me?" Twilight asked. Celestia took Twilights hand and walked with her.

"Twilight theres something i need you go do for me. I wouldnt ask if it wasnt urgent. If i had any other way of dealing with this i would. Its not a threat or a villian though its something different and honestly im glad. Theres way to many villians thst need to be defeated for some reason. There was Discord, Starlight, Tirek, Chrysalis- " Celestia gabbed on and on. Twilight groaned as she was gettjng annoyed.

"Thats fine Celestia I dont need a run down of every villian that me and my friends have defeated just tell me." Twilight said. Celestia sighed and spoke.

"Theres an unidentified person wandering around in Canterlot speaking to themselves. Me and others have tried to figure out whats wrong with him but he keeps going around and talking to himself." Celestia explained. Twilight giggled like crazy while Celestia rolled her eyes. Twilight couldnt believe that this had been what Celestia was wortying about. What could one crazy person do to Equestria especially if they werent doing anything harmful.

"So a crazy person is wandering around in Canterlot. Big deal. Ponyville has one to its Pinkie Pie and shes great and doesnt need any hepp because thats her personality." Twilight said.

"No this is not the type of crazy your thinking of. This guy is litterally going on about gibberish. I dont even understand it." Celestia said. Twilight laughed.

"Alright ill go see if i can help him. Stop worrying Celestia Its nothing i cant handle Ive saved Equestria with my friends for Celestia's sake." Twilight laughed as she walked to Canterlot knowing that this would be easy.

When she got there she saw the man panicking over the sky and Equestria and was freaking everybody out.

Twilight looked him over and concluded that this was the craziest man she had ever seen in Equestria. Pinkie Pie and Derpy were more normal than him.

"I know theres a spell somewhere that can help him." Twilight said as she read through a spell book trying to find a spell to recert him back to normal.

Finally she found the spell and casted it on him. He fell but Twilight caught him.

"W-Where am i? Princess Twilight!? What are you doing here?!" The man said.

"I came to help you. For some reason unknown to me you snapped but luckily your back to normal." Twilight said.

"Wow thanks Twilight your the best. Im sorry for what I did." He said. After that he went to apologize to everybody.

"Good job Twilight i knew you could do it." Celestia said. Twilight hugged Celestia snd then all of a sudden a small voice was heard behind them. They turned around to see Sweetie Belle.

"Sweetie why are you here? Your supposed to be in school in Ponyville! What brought you here!?" Twilight exclaimed. Sweetie Belle frowned as she looked away with fright in her eyes.

"I need your help. I came to lokn for you at your castle but you werent there... Its...its the water. Im scared of water and i dont know why!" Sweetie Belle said. Twilight couldnt understand how Sweetie Belle could be afraid of that as shes been in the water numerous times.

"But Sweetie Belle youve swam before. I dont understand how you could be scared of it now." Twilight explained. Sweetie Belle cried.

"I know that! Whats wrong with me!?" Sweetie Belle asked loudly. Twilight couldnt figure out how to help with her problem. She stuttered.

"Look Ill be heading back to my castle, but ill reach out to you later on during the week okay? I can help you then. Now go home." Twilight said. Sweetie Belle nodded sadly and ran off. Twilight watched her leave.

Twilight wondered to herself about how she could help Sweetie Belle. She knew exposure therapy would be the best method. She was still confused about her situation though. However she decided that situation could wait as she went back to Ponyville.

When she got back to Ponyville she decided to go see Rarity to see what she could do.

"Rarity can i ask you something?" Twilight asked as Rarity woke up from a nap.

"Sweetie Belle told me she has a fear of water. It doesnt make any sense to me." Twilight said. Rarity gave Twilight a confused look.

"Really? Thats odd. Shes been fine with water from what i know." Rarity shrugged.

"Well shes not now. She came to me and told me she wants help overcoming her fear." Twilight said. Rarity stood up and went over to her window.

"That certainly is strange...you should help her." Rarity suggested.

"We both should help her. She needs people that she trusts in order for exposure therapy to work." Twilight remarked.

"Should she have someone to talk to as well?" Rarity suggested.

"That would be worthless. Exposure therapy is the only way. We must at least try to help her this way" Twilight stated.

Rarity sighed.

"This is still to much to take in darling...what should i do?" Rarity asked. Twilight shook her head.

Nothing for now but we will both talk to her soon and ill help her. You can help to." Twilight said as she began to leave.

As Twilight left a dark thought crossed Rarity's mind. It was of Sweetie Belle hesitating to swim and drowning. Rarity ran to her sink snd threw up in fright. Her sister needex help. She hoped that Twilight would hrlp her quickly.
