The Theatrical Playby Twilight starChaptersThe invitationArrival at the theaterThe costumes are gone!TrapMystery almost solved (Rewritten)And the thief is...The invitationIt was a beautiful night in Canterlot, and Luna was in her bedroom watching the night sky. Since no pony was having nightmares today, she didn’t need to enter Dream World. Twilight Sparkle told Luna that she would be staying at Canterlot Castle for a few days to be with her. Luna was happy when she heard that. Because she and Twilight could spend several days together. Suddenly she heard a knock on the door. Luna stopped what she was doing and went to answer it. Opening the door, she saw Twilight Sparkle with a backpack. Twilight Sparkle was smiling. “Luna. I have very good news for both of us!” “What’s the news, love?” asked Luna. “We were invited to participate in a play!” exclaimed Twilight Sparkle. Luna was surprised, before looking insecure, “I don’t know, love. What time of day will it be?” Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain. She opened her backpack, took an invitation to read the time, before looking at Luna before answering. “It’s going to be night, Luna. It will be at midnight”, answered Twilight Sparkle. As much as Luna wanted to accept, she still had doubts. “I don’t know, love,” said Luna. “I have my royal duties as princess of the night” Twilight seemed a little sad about that. “I know, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But are you busy tonight?” “No, love,” answered Luna. “Why?” “Because the play will be at midnight”, answered Twilight Sparkle. “So I think we can, love,” said Luna with a smile. “Do you have another invitation?” Twilight Sparkle took another invitation from the bag and looked back at Luna. “Yes, Luna” Luna noticed something and was confused. “Wait. Since we will perform in the play, why would we need invitations?” Twilight Sparkle touched something. “Ah! I’m so sorry, Luna. I forgot to warn you that the ponies in charge of the Canterlot theater told me to give the two invitations to two ponies” “Who are you going to invite, love?” asked Luna. “I was thinking of inviting Celestia and Spike”, replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna looked uncertain. “Love, I respect your choice. But Celestia and Spike must already be sleeping” Twilight Sparkle touched on that and couldn’t help but agree with Luna. “You’re right, Luna. And now? What do I do? I don’t want to disappoint the theater ponies for not giving both tickets to anypony” Luna approached Twilight Sparkle. “Don’t worry, love. If you want, I can explain to them that who you intended to invite is already asleep” Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain and a little unsure as to what Luna said. “But what if they get mad at me, Luna?” Luna hugged Twilight with a wing. “Trust me, love. I’m sure they wouldn’t be mad at you, especially with me around” Twilight Sparkle stopped to think about it and even made sense. Twilight has never seen a pony get mad at Luna. Maybe it’s because they are afraid of Luna. “Do you have everything there, love?” asked Luna. Twilight Sparkle opened her backpack to check. Twilight had food if she got hungry, your stuffed Luna and the two tickets. She closed her backpack and looked at Luna. “Yes, Luna,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “I have everything” “But before we go we need to warn Celestia”, said Twilight Sparkle. Luna had an idea. She entered In her bedroom. Twilight Sparkle was confused. She stepped forward and lifted a front and rear hull. “Luna? What will you do?” Luna returned to the door with a scroll and a quill. “I am writing a letter to Celestia that we will be outside the castle” Twilight Sparkle was relieved. “Good idea, Luna. I would hate myself if Celestia worried about both of us because she didn’t know where we would be” Luna stopped writing on the scroll. “Ready. I finished writing” “What is written, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Luna started reading. ”Dear Sister, me and Twilight will be out of the castle today because we’re going to a play. We will try not to delay, but we don’t know until what time the play will be. So, if you wake up and realize that we aren’t here at the castle yet, know that we are at the Canterlot theater. If you want you, you can and go see the play. Signed Luna” “It’s quite explanatory, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But what will you do now with the scroll?” Luna rolled the scroll before looking at Twilight Sparkle. “I intend to pass this letter under Celestia’s bedroom door” “That’s a good idea, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle, before getting confused. “But what if the scroll doesn’t go under the door?” “Then, love. I will teleport the scroll to Celestia’s room”, replied Luna. Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain. “Are you sure, Luna? What if she ended up waking up to the noise?” “Twilight, my sister has a heavy sleep,” replied Luna. “She wouldn’t wake up even if I spoke to the Canterlot Royal Voice” Twilight Sparkle still looked uncertain. “Wouldn’t it be better to open the door?” “Then she will wake up, love”, replied Luna. Twilight Sparkle didn’t understand why her mentor would wake up with the door slamming open, but she didn’t want to question. Luna started to walk to Celestia’s room and Twilight followed her. Arriving at Celestia’s bedroom door, Luna and Twilight looked at each other. Luna had a smile, while Twilight had a look of concern. “Luna, are you sure you don’t prefer to open the door?” asked Twilight Sparkle in a low tone. “I have sure, Twilight”, answered Luna in a low tone. “Trust me, love” Twilight Sparkle decided to trust Luna and allowed her marefriend to do what she wanted to do. Luna opened the letter, tried to pass down but failed. Luna looked at Twilight. “Love, I fear I will have to teleport the letter to Celestia’s room”, said Luna. Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain. Because Twilight was afraid Luna would make noise and wake Celestia. Luna thought of Celestia’s room before she made the parchment disappear and began to walk, “done, love. Let’s go now” Twilight Sparkle didn’t know if the teleportation spell teleported to Celestia’s room. “Luna, did you teleport the letter to Celestia’s room?” “Yes, love”, answered Luna. “Can I check to see if she’s really in her room?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Love, please,” asked Luna. “Trust me” “But what if you teleported to the wrong place?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Luna stopped walking and looked at Twilight. “Love, do you trust me?” “Yes, Luna. I trust you”, answered Twilight Sparkle. Luna went to Twilight Sparkle. “So trust me the letter is in Celestia’s room” “But Luna…” tried to say Twilight Sparkle, but stopped when Luna kissed her cheek. “Love, the kiss I gave you now on the cheek is proof that you can trust me”, said Luna. Twilight Sparkle tried to believe what Luna said. “Okay, Luna. I will trust you” “I’m glad you decided to believe me, love”, said Luna Arrival at the theaterAt the Canterlot Theater, Star Twinkle waited for Twilight and Luna. He wondered if the two mares would take long to come. Beside him, was his daughter Juniper Montage. Star Twinkle kept walking in circles. He was worried that Twilight and Luna wouldn’t arrive before midnight. Juniper Montage was watching her father until she saw the costumes of the play that was to take place at midnight. She smiled and walked over to where the costumes were and dressed as a dancer before she started dancing. Star Twinkle heard the sound of jumping, stopped what he was doing, and looked where the sound was coming from. He was surprised to see his daughter dancing in a play costume. He almost ran to Juniper. And when he arrived, he took off the costume Juniper wore with his magic. “You can’t wear this, daughter,” said Star Twinkle. “This is the outfit for the play” Juniper was sad about that. Her ears lowered. “I’m sorry, Dad. But I wanted to be the ballerina of the play” “I’m sorry, daughter,” said Twinkle Star. “But I already chose who will be the ballerina of the play” Suddenly they heard hoofbeats. Twinkle Star looked back and saw Twilight Sparkle and Luna. Twilight had a possible look of concern and Luna was smiling. Twinkle Star bowed to Luna. “Princess, I’m so glad to hear that you and Twilight could come” “You’re very lucky that I could come, loyal subject,” said Luna. “Because today I had no real night duty in the Drem World” Twinkle Star looked at Luna, but still bowed. “Well, even better, right?” Twinkle Star saw Twilight and smiled, but stopped bending . “Twilight, did you manage to give both invitations I handed you to somepony?” Twilight Sparkle was nervous. Her pupils were small and she sweating nervously as she scratched her shin with a hoof. “About that, Twinkle Star… I… I…” Luna realized that Twilight was too nervous to speak. She decided to try to help, but instead decided to ask in a low tone. “Love, would you like me to speak?” Twilight looked at Luna before whispering back. “I don’t know, Luna. Can’t I talk?” “Love, you’re nervous,” whispered Luna. “You can trust me” “But what if he gets mad?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Love, do you remember the kiss I gave you on the cheek before we left?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Why?” “You remember what I told you, right?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Why do you want to know?” “So, the kiss I gave you is proof that you can trust me,” replied Luna. Twilight Sparkle stopped to think. “So?” asked Luna. “Can I talk to him for you?” Twilight Sparkle made her decision. “Okay, Luna. You can” “Thank you, love,” said Luna, before kissing Twilight’s cheek. Luna looked at the two ponies in front of her. “Twinkle Star, Twilight is sorry. But she couldn’t deliver both invitations to anypony. The two she intended to invite are already asleep” Twilight Sparkle was now very nervous about the answer. She looked at Twinkle Star afraid he would say, “I’m disappointed in you, Twilight” Twinkle Star seemed a little saddened by what Luna said, but he showed no anger or disappointment. “It’s all right, princess. I understand. Ponies usually sleep at this time of night” Luna was trying not to show sadness with the last sentence. “So, aren’t you mad at Twilight Sparkle?” Twinkle Star smiled now. “Of course not, princess. Why do you think I’d be mad at that?” Luna and Twilight looked at each other before the night princess responded. “For nothing. I was just worried about her” Luna knew that wasn’t the truth. But she didn’t want Twilight to be embarrassed just for getting nervous. She looked at Star Twinkle. “So? Are we going to start rehearsing the play now?” “Yes Princess. You know your role, right?” asked Star Twinkle. “Yes, subject,” answered Luna. “I’ll be the lead soldier” Star Twinkle looked at Twilight Sparkle now. “And you, Twilight? Do you know what your role will be in the play?” Twilight Sparkle smiled. “Yes, Star Twinkle. I will be the ballerina” Twilight Sparkle twirled like a ballerina. Star Twinkle smiled as he watched Twilight take a ballet step. “How sweet. I really chose well for you to play this role” Juniper Montage looked a little sad and angry at what her father said. But she tried to smile. “Hey, dad. Is there anything I can help with?” Twinkle Star thought for a moment before answering. “No, daughter” Juniper looked sad about that. “But can I be responsible for taking them to their dressing rooms?” “Well, I guess so, daughter,” answered Twinkle Star. Juniper was happy with that. “Thank you, dad” “Just don’t forget to take this ballerina outfit”, said Twinkle Star. “Sure, Dad.” Juniper Montage picked up the clothes with her magic before motioning for Twilight and Luna to follow. Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle with a smile. “So, love? Are you excited?” “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle with a smile. “And you?” “I’m excited too, love,” replied Luna. Juniper Montage opened the door to the Twilight dressing room. “This is your dressing room, Twilight” Twilight Sparkle came in and admired her dressing room. Juniper handed the ballerina outfit to Twilight. “And this is your outfit that you will wear in the play” Twilight Sparkle picked up the outfit with her magic. “Thank you, Miss…?” " Juniper Montage” “... Juniper Montage” Twilight Sparkle closed the door of her dressing room. She just hoped Luna wouldn’t be upset with her for closing the door. Juniper Montage walked back and Luna followed her. Luna looked over to where the Twilight dressing room was. She couldn’t help noticing that on the Twilight door was a red star, not a six-pointed star, but a normal star. Luna looked at Juniper Montage. “So, Juniper Montage. Where will my dressing room be?” Juniper looked at Luna, but kept walking. “Your dressing room is right there” Juniper Montage stopped walking and opened the door. “This is your dressing room, princess” “Thank you, subject,” said Luna before entering. Twilight Sparkle was in her ballerina outfit and her mane tied up. She couldn’t help denying that she was very pretty. Her mane was a coke, near her right ear was a flower with rose petals, her tutu was greenish in color, and her ballet shoes were pink in color. She kept admiring herself in the mirror. She had a raised front hoof with a smile on her face. “If Rarity had it here, she’d say I’m fabulous,” said Twilight Sparkle. Twilight Sparkle knew she wasn’t going to dance in the play, but she wanted to practice some ballet steps. She began to spin as she danced. She imagined dancing ballet in a rose field with Luna. Luna with a ballerina outfit too, but in black. And her marefriend threw her in the air and was caught and grabbed by Luna. But her imagination and dancing were interrupted by a knock on the door. She went to the door, opened it and was surprised to see Luna with a look of concern. “Luna? What’s happened? ”Asked Twilight Sparkle. “It’s my costume, love,” replied Luna. “He disappeared!” Twilight Sparkle was surprised. “What?” The costumes are gone!Twilight and Luna were walking in the hallway with the dressing room doors. Twilight was without her ballerina outfit and her horsehair was no longer tied. Although her appearance was normal, she was worried about Luna. “Luna, I don’t understand,” said Twilight Sparkle. “How did your costume disappear?” Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle. “I don’t know, love. When I walked into my dressing room, the costume wasn’t there” “But how it wasn’t there, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Did you look right?” “Yes, love,” answered Luna. “I searched everywhere and I couldn’t find it” “Don’t worry, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “I’ll help you find your costume” Twilight Sparkle and Luna entered the dressing room and began searching for the costume. Twilight Sparkle began searching for costumes that were hanging in a rack. She used her magic to move the clothes to the right. “Do you know what a lead soldier’s outfit looks like, Luna?” “No, love,” answered Luna. Twilight Sparkle stopped what she was doing and looked at Luna. “But how do we find the clothes without knowing what it looks like?” “Don’t you have books in your library that talk about clothes?” asked Luna. “No, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Books don’t talk about clothes. They tell real or fictional stories” “Is there something that talks about clothes, love?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna. Magazines,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna was confused. “What are magazines?” “Magazines are journalistic, specialized and literary publications,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “What do the magazines talk about, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Magazines talk about a lot of things, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Food, fashion, sports, animals…” “Is there any magazine in the theater, love?” asked Luna. “I don’t think so, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Twilight! Twilight!” Twilight and Luna looked at the door and saw Juniper Montage with a look of despair. Twilight Sparkle approached Juniper Montage. “What happened, Juniper?” “It’s your costumes, Twilight,” replied Juniper Montage. “They disappeared from your dressing room!” Twilight Sparkle was surprised by what Juniper Montage said. “But how? How could they have disappeared? I had closed the door” “I know, Twilight,” said Juniper Montage. “But it seems that somepony who works in the theater took advantage of the fact that you were out of the dressing room to catch your costume” “I’ll go see it,” Twilight looked at Luna. “Would you like to come along with me, Luna?” Luna smiled. “Of course, Twilight” Twilight Sparkle started running to her dressing room and Luna flew to follow her marefriend. “I don’t understand, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “How did my costume go missing? Who took it?” “I don’t know, love,” replied Luna. “But don’t worry. I’ll help you find your costume” Twilight Sparkle smiled at what Luna said. “Thank you so much, Luna” Luna smiled. “You’re welcome, Twilight” When Twilight and Luna arrived at the Twilight dressing room door, they realized the door was open. Twilight Sparkle didn’t really understand who would do it and why. She wanted nothing more than to know who did it. But although she wanted her questions answered, Twilight Sparkle decided to calm down before she started searching. Luna seeing that Twilight started looking, she did the same. Twilight took the towel off the hair chair in the hope that his suit would be behind the towel. But to her unhappiness, her suit wasn’t there. Luna flew up onto a shelf with several teddy bears, took out one by one. But the suit was not there. Luna flew to a shelf with several teddy bears, took one by one. But the custom wasn’t there. Luna saw several clothes hanging and went through one to see if Twilight’s clothes were there. But, for her bad luck, it wasn’t. Suddenly they heard footsteps and stopped what they were doing. Who appeared at the door was Twinkle Star with a smile. “Twilight, Luna. Are you ready for the play?” Twilight Sparkle approached ten Twinkle Star. Her ears were down. “Twinkle Star, my costume and Luna’s are gone” Twinkle Star was surprised and scared at the same time. “What?! How?!” “We don’t know, subject,” replied Luna. “When I arrived in my dressing room, my costume wasn’t there and when Twilight came to help me, her costume was gone too” “But that can’t happen!” shouted Twinkle Star. “The play will start in a few hours!” Twilight Sparkle knew she would have to race against time. But she had no choice. “Don’t worry, Twinkle Star. Luna and I are going to find the costumes before the play” Twinkle Star seemed happy to hear that. “Really, Twilight? Can you two do this? Will you two make it?” Twilight Sparkle nodded. “Yes, Twinkle Star. We will not let your piece be damaged and we will find the thief who stole the costumes” Twinkle Star seemed happy to hear that. “Thank you so much, Twilight. You two are doing me a big favor!” Twilight Sparkle looked at Twinkle Star with a determined look. “Don’t worry, Twinkle Star. We will not let you down” “I’m so happy about that, Twilight,” said Twinkle Star. “When you find them, let me know” Twinkle Star came out of the dressing room aisle. Allowing Twilight and Luna to go looking for the costume and the thief. Luna seemed unsure of everything Twilight said. “Love, do you think we’ll be able to find the costumes and find out who the thief is in time?” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “I’m sure, Luna. If we work together, we’ll find our costumes and find out who the thief is” “I hope so, love,” said Luna. Twinkle Star was sitting on the floor on the stage in fear that Twilight and Luna couldn’t find the costumes and find the thief in time. He was very nervous. Because many of the ponies that went to the Canterlot Theater liked his plays and when he announced to the ponies that he would have a play at midnight, many ponies didn’t know if they could stay up until this time. But they would try because Twinkle Star was the owner of the theater. “Dad, is everything okay?” asked Juniper Montage. Twinkle Star stopped worrying, looked at Juniper Montage and smiled. “Yes, daughter. Don’t worry” Juniper Montage didn’t seem to believe Twinkle Star’s words. “Dad, I see you are worried about something. Come on, you can trust me” Twinkle Star decided that he should trust Juniper Montage. “Daughter, do you know the play you will have at midnight?” “Yes, Dad,” replied Juniper Montage. “Why?” “Because I have a feeling that Twilight and Luna can’t find the costumes and the thief,” replied Twinkle Star. Juniper Montage didn’t know that her father would ask for help for two ponies to find the costume, but she would calm her father. “Relax, Dad. Stay calm. Everything will work out. They will make it. I’m sure” “But what if they can’t, daughter?” asked Twinkle Star. “What if they fail?” “They’ll make it, Dad,” replied Juniper Montage. “Have faith” Although Twinkle Star was very nervous about the ponies no longer going to the theater, he decided to try to calm down and think positively. “Ok, daughter. I will try” Juniper Montage smiled at what her father said. “Don’t worry, dad. Everything will be alright” TrapTwilight Sparkle and Luna were now on the left side of the stage. They realized that there were many clothes scattered on the floor, as if somepony had changed while another performed on stage. Twilight Sparkle was beginning to wonder if it’d had a play in the afternoon or in the morning. But it made no sense. Twinkle Star told her and Luna that she and the Princess would have a play at midnight. Don’t it have two theater performances on the same day or do it have one? Well, whether or not. She and Luna knew they couldn’t be questioning. Twilight and Luna had to work together if they needed to find customs and catch the thief. What if she and Luna can’t find the clothes and catch the thief? What if the theater ponies were disappointed? Just thinking about it made her nervous. “Is everything okay, love?” asked Luna worriedly. Twilight Sparkle realized she was standing in the same spot and was looking worried. She calmed down and looked at Luna with a smile. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I’m fine” Luna looked uncertain. “Are you sure? You had a nervous look” “Luna, don’t worry,” said Twilight Sparkle. “I’m fine. Really” Luna didn’t seem to believe that. She looked seriously at Twilight. “Love, don’t hide what you’re feeling” Twilight Sparkle didn’t want to talk about how she felt, because she thought Luna would think she was worrying for nothing. “Luna, there’s nothing worrying me. Why do you think that?” “Love…” “Really, Luna” They both stared at each other. Luna with a serious look, not believing what Twilight was telling her. Twilight was looking at Luna with a nervous smile as she sweated. There was a silence in the room, until Twilight decided to break the silence. “Well, let’s keep searching, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Although Luna still suspected her marefriend’s behavior, she decided to accept it. “Ok, Twilight. But I’m keeping an eye on you” “Of course, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. Meanwhile in a dark place, there was a pony with a black cape. He observed the two customs of the play. “With the clothes stored in this place, there will be no play,” said the mysterious pony, “and with the clothes here, Twinkle Star will not be able to perform his play” The pony just played that he forgot to bring other things from the play. “I think it’s better to get the other stuff before somepony sees me” Twilight and Luna searched the light and sound booth to see if the clothes were hidden there. Twilight Sparkle searched under the table and Luna looked at the stage from far away to look for custom. Luna had no idea where the customs were. Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle and saw that her marefriend was still looking under the table. “Love, did you find the customs?” asked Luna. Twilight Sparkle gave up searching under the table and looked at Luna. “No, Luna” “Where should we look now, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Do you know where the spotlight is?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Yes, Twilight,” replied Luna. “They stand on the stage” “Could you go to the spotlight and see if the costumes are there?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Luna smiled. “Of course, love. Where will you go while I’m looking for the costumes up there and should we meet where in the theater?” “I’ll go look under the theater to see if the costumes are hidden down there,” replied Twilight Sparkle, “and we’ll meet on stage” “Okay, love,” said Luna. “I understood” Luna walked to the door before looking at Twilight Sparkle. “Good luck, love” Twilight Sparkle smiled. “Thank you, Luna. For you too” Luna smiled at what Twilight Sparkle said before opening the door and going downstairs. Reaching the stage, she flew into the spotlight and looked around for a hanging suit. Unfortunately, she didn’t find any hanging clothes. Luna sighed. She looked at a clock that was far away and saw that it was a few minutes to midnight. One thing she knew, was that when Twilight looked at the clock it would freak out. Luna decided to continue searching for the costumes where she was. Twilight Sparkle kept searching the light and sound booth and found nothing. She decided to stop searching and go to the stage to go under the theater, also known as the moat. She went to the door and realized it had a lot of stairs. Twilight started down the stairs, careful to not fall. She began to wonder if Luna could find the costumes. Found it or not, Twilight hoped Luna was fine. When she was done down the stairs, Twilight opened the door with her magic before entering and closing it. She intended to go under the stage now to see if the costumes were there. Suddenly something fast passed through her. She looked around. “Hi? Anypony here?” Twilight Sparkle looked around for the running pony. Again, something went through her. Twilight Sparkle looked left and saw somepony with a black cape. Twilight Sparkle ran after the pony. “Hey! Stop!” exclaimed Twilight Sparkle. The pony looked back before running faster. As they ran, the two ponies passed several theater rooms. After running so much, Twilight Sparkle stopped running and sat on the floor. Her ears were down. The pony Twilight Sparkle was following was far away. “I need to warn Luna that I saw the thief,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But first I’ll check if the costumes are under the stage” Upon reaching the stage, Twilight Sparkle saw a door on the floor and opened it with her magic before entering. She realized it was very dark and used her magic to make light. Unfortunately for her, the customs weren’t there. Twilight Sparkle looked at the front door and realized it was locked. Twilight Sparkle started to get nervous and tried to open it. But she couldn’t. She began to panic. “Luna, help!” Twilight Sparkle knocked on the door with one hoof while the other held on to the entrance. Outside, the pony that Twilight had chased was holding several keys before putting it on its cover and running away. Luna was in the same spot as before and she wasn’t finding the costumes hanging. She decided to give up and land on the floor. Now she had to go looking for Twilight Sparkle. Luna intended to wait for Twilight on stage, but she heard a scream. “Help! Somepony help me!” Luna recognized the voice. It was the voice of Twilight. She looked around. “Twilight? Love? Where are you?” “Luna, you are here! Thanks to Faust. Help me!” Luna wanted to help Twilight, but she didn’t know where Twilight Sparkle was. “Love, where are you? I am not seeing you” “I’m down here, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna looked down and saw a door the same color as the stage. “Baby, are you there?” “Down here you mean? Yes, Luna. Help me please” Luna tried to open the door with her magic, but failed. “Love, I can’t open it” A silence occurred before Twilight Sparkle spoke. “Can you unlock the door with your magic?” Luna smiled. “It’s not a bad idea, Twilight” “Do you think you can do it, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “I’ll try, Twilight,” replied Luna. Luna closed her eyes as she carried her magic. She hoped it would work. Luna was an alicorn. She had to make it. Luckily for her, she did it. The door made a noise before the door opened, revealing Twilight Sparkle with a smile before hugging Luna. “Luna, thanks for saving me,” said Twilight Sparkle. Luna returned the hug with a smile. “You’re welcome, love” Twilight Sparkle and Luna left the hug. “So, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Did you find the clothes down there?” Twilight Sparkle was sad and her ears dropped. “No, Luna. I have no idea where the costumes are” The unicorn glanced at the clock to see what time it was and saw that it was eleven thirty at night. She panicked. “Oh my Celestia! Soon it will be time to introduce ourselves and we haven’t found the customs yet and we haven’t had time to rehearse!” “Calm down, love,” said Luna. “We’ll be able to find the clothes and have time to rehearse” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “I know, Luna. But I’m afraid it’s disappointing them” Luna touched something. “Wait. So this why you were nervous? Were you nervous that you couldn’t find the clothes and catch the thief before the play started?” Twilight Sparkle blew out a breath, her ears were down and she stared at the floor. “Yes, Luna” “But why didn’t you tell me that, love?” asked Luna, now a little sad that Twilight had hidden her feelings. “It’s just that I thought I could handle myself,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna approached Twilight and wrapped a wing around her marefriend. “Twilight, I understand you” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna in surprise. “Really, Luna? You understand me?” The alicorn smiled. “Of course, Twilight. Before I was banished to the moon and the ponies enjoyed my night like today, I felt sad. Celestia understood my sadness and wanted to know why I was sad” Twilight Sparkle was curious. “Why didn’t you tell Princess Celestia?” Luna was sad now, but it wasn’t aimed at Twilight Sparkle. “Because I would rather keep everything I felt for myself rather than venting to my sister and the result you know” Twilight Sparkle felt sad that Luna had spoken of her past. “Luna, I’m so sorry that you have to talk about it” “Twilight, don’t blame yourself,” said Luna. “Sorry, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “It’s just that I pity you for hiding given what I felt ” Luna smiled. “No problem, Twilight. Now, let’s return to our search for customs?” “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Okay, Twilight,” said Luna. “What are the places we haven’t checked yet?” Twilight Sparkle thought before answering. “The livong room, the press room and the administrative part” “Will the costumes be in one of these places, love?” asked Luna. “I believe so, Luna,” answered Twilight Sparkle. Mystery almost solved (Rewritten)When Luna and Twilight arrived in the living room, they saw that the room was white, with cookware on the stove, wooden spoons, pink kitchen aprons with flowers, white chef’s hat, three closed windows, a drawer. and a closet. Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “Luna, I’ll go look in the closet” “And me, I’ll look in the drawer, love,” said Luna. “If you find the costumes just call me,” said Twilight Sparkle, “and if I do, I’ll do the same.” Luna understood, went to the light brown drawer and opened it with her magic. She hoped the costumes were in one of the drawers. But unfortunately, it wasn’t. Twilight Sparkle walked to the closet and opened it. But the clothes of the play weren’t there. Inside the cabinet, there were only glass plates. She closed the cabinet with the utmost care that the plates wouldn’t break. She went to Luna. “So, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “You found?” Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle. “No, ove. And you?” “Me neither, Luna.” Luna began to believe the clothes wouldn’t be here. “Come on, love. The costumes aren’t here.” “Luna, we need to look everywhere.” “But Twilight, I already looked here,” said Luna, “and I wasn’t” “But they must be here. I’m sure.” “How are you so sure?” asked Luna. “We already look in the most likely places to be and haven’t found it yet” “Luna, you have to be patient,” said Twilight Sparkle. “I also want to find the costumes before the play starts and I don’t want to disappoint them” “I’m sorry, love,” said Luna. “It’s just a few minutes to midnight and we haven’t even rehearsed the play yet.” Twilight Sparkle tried to stay calm, despite starting to panic inside. “W-We’ll make it, Luna” “I hope, love.” Suddenly, something went very fast through the door. Luna and Twilight Sparkle looked back. “What was that, love?” asked Luna. “I don’t know, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Do you think we should check?” “Yes, Luna” Twilight Sparkle and Luna left the room they were in, and looked around for the figure that had just passed the hallway. “Was it our imagination, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Maybe, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I hope so, love.” The two returned to the room looking for the costumes. What they didn’t know, was that the pony that was responsible for the figure hit his hoof on the ground. He was cursing to himself that it would be easy to catch the attention of the two mares. The hooded pony tipped over its hooves so as not to make a sound, and upon arriving at the door, he saw Twilight Sparkle and Luna searching for the costumes. He started to think. How would he draw attention from both mares? Until, the pony had an idea. He entered the room quietly, opened the cabinet, took a plate and broke it to get attention. Twilight and Luna heard crashing plate noise and looked where the sound was coming from and were surprised to see the hooded pony in front of them. Twilight Sparkle ran to him. “Stop!” The pony began to run. He glanced back and saw Twilight and Luna run up to him. The pony looked forward and saw the door inside, it was very dark, he entered the darkness of the room. Twilight Sparkle and Luna entered the room. Upon entering, they used the magic of their horns to illuminate. They began to walk calmly until they were pulled by a rope to the ceiling. The lights came on. Twilight and Luna looked down and saw the mysterious pony staring at them before smiling. Luna began to tap into the trap that she and Twilight were trapped in hopes of the Two being released, while the Unicorn looked around the room for something for them to break free. “It’s no use,” said the pony. The two mares stopped what they were doing and looked at the pony. “There is no escape from this trap,” said the pony. Twilight Sparkle was annoyed. “You won’t get away with this, mysterious pony!” “I think I will, Twilight Sparkle,” said the pony. Twilight Sparkle was surprised. “How do you know my name?” “Twilight, since you arrived at the theater with Luna, I’ve been watching you.” “Show me who you are!” shouted Luna. “No,” said the pony. “I will not show my face. What would be the fun of revealing my identity?” “Do you know who you’re talking to?” asked Luna. “You’re talking to the princess of the night” “And you think I don’t know, Luna?” asked the pony. Luna was confused. “How do you know our name?” “Luna, I know everypony’s name,” answered the pony. “I know the names of everypony who goes to this theater” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “Luna, this is like playing detective. We need to find out who is to blame” “You can try anything to catch me,” said the pony. “But you won’t be able to catch me. Never!” The pony began to laugh before leaving and closing the door with his magic. Luna could only glare at the door. She intended, after discovering this pony, to send him to the castle catacombs. Twilight Sparkle looked around again as she did this, the Unicorn also tried to locate which part of the theater they were in. In the room there was an office, desks, computers, and phones. She could locate where they were. She smiled and looked at Luna. “Luna.” Luna stopped glaring at the door and looked at Twilight with a calmer look. “Yes, love?” “I think figuring out which room we’re in,” said Twilight Sparkle. “Really, Twilight?” asked Luna. “What room are we in?” “The administrative room,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “This is room we haven’t checked yet” Luna smiled. “So could that mean maybe the costumes are here?” “I’m sure, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Good,” said Luna. “But how do we get out of here?” Twilight Sparkle looked around again and saw a red case with flower designs on the table. She had an idea. She took the case and brought it inside. Luna was curious and raised an eyebrow. “Love, what are you looking for?” Twilight Sparkle was still searching, but answered Luna. “I’m looking for a scissor, Luna” “Why are you looking for a scissor, Twilight?” asked Luna. “To cut the rope that is holding us up here, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. Luna smiled. “You’re smart” Twilight stopped searching and looked at Luna with a smile. “Thanks, Luna” “You’re welcome, love,” said Luna. Twilight Sparkle returned to search until she finally found the scissor. “I found!” Twilight returned the case to where it was and carried the scissors to the rope that held them. Twilight just hoped the scissor cut the rope and luckily, she managed to cut it. They began to fall. But Luna flapped her wings and grabbed Twilight Sparkle with her magic. Twilight Sparkle smiled. “Thank you for saving me, Luna” “You’re welcome, baby,” said Luna. Luna landed on the floor and put Twilight on the floor. When she released the unicorn, Twilight went to Luna to hug her. Luna was surprised to be hugged, but soon returned the hug. As they left the hug, Twilight Sparkle began to think. Who could this hooded pony be? Until she had an idea who it could be. “Love, is everything ok?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I was just thinking” “What were you thinking?” “I was wondering who this hooded pony might be.” “Do you know who it is?” “I don’t know, Luna. But I’m sure I already know who it is. But for that, we need to find the costumes first” “Let’s look here, Twilight,” said Luna. “Yes, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “After all, this was one of the places we haven’t been looking for yet” Twilight and Luna started searching for costumes in the room. Luna was flying to see if she would locate the costumes. Twilight searched behind the furniture, but didn’t find it. “Luna, I don’t think it’s here,” said Twilight Sparkle, still with her back and ears down. “Love, I found it!” shouted Luna cheerfully. Twilight Sparkle was confused, she looked back, her ears brightened and looked at Luna, who was looking up from a closet. “Did you find the costumes, Luna?” Luna was still looking over the closet, but answered. “Yes, love. Would you like to ride in me to see?” “Yes, Luna. Please,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna landed on the floor so Twilight could ride in her. When Twilight succeeded, Luna flew carefully to the top of the closet. Twilight smiled with what she saw. “The costumes! We found!” Luna picked up both costumes with her magic and carried them to the ground before landing on the floor and Twilight dismounting from her. “And now, love?” asked Luna. “Let’s warn the theater ponies that we already found the clothes, now we just have to figure out who the thief is,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Author's Note I must confess, the chapter is much better than before. And I wanted to apologize to those who didn't like this chapter as it was written before. And the thief is...Luna and Twilight were in the same location as they found Juniper Montage and Twinkle Star. Twilight Sparkle delivered the two costumes. “Luna and I already found the costumes.” Twinkle Star was happy. “Oh. Thank you very much, Twilight. Now we can start rehearsing the play!” “We can’t rehearse the play yet, Twinkle Star,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But why not, Twilight?” asked Twinkle Star. “We have to find out who the thief is so he doesn’t steal the costumes again,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Twinkle Star seemed to accept what Twilight said. “You’re right, Twilight. But how are we going to catch the thief?” “Simple. A trap,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Love, what trap will we set?” asked Luna. Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna and whispered in her ear. Luna smiled. “I liked the idea.” The hooded pony returned where Twilight and Luna were trapped and saw the ceiling rope cut. He got angry. “So the two mares managed to escape the trap?” asked the pony, not happy. “Doesn’t matter. I will form a new trap and they will be trapped again.” The pony entered the room. What he didn’t see was Twilight Sparkle following him. Twilight Sparkle didn’t enter the room, just watched him very close to the door. The pony saw its case open. Next to the case was a pair of scissors. “So, did they manage to escape with that scissors?” asked the pony. “It doesn’t matter too. In the next trap, there will be nothing but the trap.” “Hey! You! Mysterious pony!” The hooded pony looked back and saw Twilight Sparkle. He looked angry. “Come get me!” Twilight Sparkle started to run. “Get back here!” the hooded pony started running after Twilight Sparkle. Twilight Sparkle was running very fast. She looked back before smiling and running faster. She just hoped the trap would work. It had to work. Because after all, if it didn’t, Twilight would have disappointed Twinkle Star. When Twilight Sparkle arrived where the trap was, she stopped. Behind her, was a fishing net on the floor, and behind the curtains were Luna and Twinkle Star, who held the net with ropes. Twilight Sparkle saw the hooded pony running towards her. “There you are!” She waited for the right moment. In the curtain, Luna looked worriedly at Twilight Sparkle, she feared that the cover pony would get her marefriend. The mysterious pony took a big leap to Twilight Sparkle. When the hooded pony came very close, Twilight teleported and the pony fell into the fishing net. “Now!” Luna and Twinkle Star pulled the rope and the pony was pulled up. “Luna. Twinkle Star. Tie the strings.” Luna and Twinkle Star tie up there in the spotlight. Twilight Sparkle approached the mysterious pony. “Time to discorver the thief,” she removed the black pony cloak with her magic, revealing... “Juniper Montage?!” shouted Luna and Twinkle Star in unison, surprised. Juniper Montage had an expression of shame. Twinkle Star approached Juniper Montage. “But why, daughter?” he was nothing more than confused. Why did his daughter do this? Twilight Sparkle looked at Twinkle Star. “Allow me to explain to you, Twinkle Star?” “Yes, Twilight,” replied Twinkle Star. “The reason Juniper Montage did all this was because she was jealous,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I could see her anger when she heard that I was going to be the ballerina and not her.” “What do you mean, envy, Twilight?” Twinkle Star was even more confused than before. “Do you remember when you praised me about choosing me well to be the ballerina for the play?” “Yes, Twilight. But what does that have to do with it?” asked Twinkle Star, still confused. “I could see from Juniper Montage’s expression that she wasn’t happy at all with what you said,” she replied. “But her expression had changed a few seconds ago, and that made me think that something wasn’t right with Juniper Montage. But she had offered to show Luna and me our dressing rooms. But there was a problem: The outfit for me use for the play was there and for Luna, don’t.” “Love, I don’t understand anything. Why did Juniper Montage do that?” asked Luna. She looked more confused than the Twinkle Star. “Do you remember when we were going to your dressing room to do a search and Juniper Montage came up to me to let me know that my suit was gone?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Yes love.” “So, she had taken advantage of when I left the room to steal my costume.” “But why did she want to steal the lead soldier’s costume, love? I wouldn’t be the ballerina in the play.” Luna lifted a hoof. “Simple. Juniper thought that if she couldn’t be the ballerina for the play, the play wouldn’t happen,” replied Twilight Sparkle to Luna. “And I would have done it if it weren’t for these two meddlesome mares,” said Juniper Montage, not happy. Luna went to Juniper Montage nothing happy. “Don’t call me and my love of a meddlesome!!” “I really can’t believe it, daughter. All of this because you want to perform in a play.” Luna looked at Twinkle Star. Twinkle Star wasn’t happy at all. “I’m sorry, Dad. I just wanted to be the ballerina. Because then, everypony would love me,” said Juniper Montage, now sorry. “Daughter, I had already said several times: You’re very young. You can’t work in the theater yet,” said Twinkle Star. “But could you forgive me?” asked Juniper Montage now with a smile. “Okay, daughter. I forgave you,” Juniper smiled. “But you will no longer be able to help me in the theater. From now on, you will be staying at the popcorn stand.” Juniper Montage’s smile fell. “What? No, dad!” “I’m sorry daughter, but I already said that you wouldn’t participate in any play, you would only help me,” Luna returned to the floor. “Well, Twilight and Princess, are we going to start our rehearsal?” “Sure,” said Twilight Sparkle and Luna in unison. “But first, Twilight, could you get my daughter out of there?” asked Twinkle Star. “Sure.” Twilight Sparkle went over to where the strings were and untied them. Juniper Montage started to fall, but she fell on her parent’ hooves. “Daughter, follow me, I’ll show you where you will work,” Twinkle Star released Juniper Montage from his lap and walked to a door, Juniper Montage got off the fishing net and followed him. When he reached the door, he opened it, revealing a cart of popcorn. The popcorn cart was outside the theater, the moon was still in the sky. Juniper Montage went to the popcorn cart sadly. Upon arriving at the popcorn cart, Juniper Montage watched her father close the door. Her sad expression was changed to anger. Twilight, Luna. You two will pay. I’ll have my revenge. Author's Note I'm sorry if you didn't like what Junniper Montage received, but I wanted her punishment to be the same as the Equestria Girls: Movie Magic short
The invitationIt was a beautiful night in Canterlot, and Luna was in her bedroom watching the night sky. Since no pony was having nightmares today, she didn’t need to enter Dream World. Twilight Sparkle told Luna that she would be staying at Canterlot Castle for a few days to be with her. Luna was happy when she heard that. Because she and Twilight could spend several days together. Suddenly she heard a knock on the door. Luna stopped what she was doing and went to answer it. Opening the door, she saw Twilight Sparkle with a backpack. Twilight Sparkle was smiling. “Luna. I have very good news for both of us!” “What’s the news, love?” asked Luna. “We were invited to participate in a play!” exclaimed Twilight Sparkle. Luna was surprised, before looking insecure, “I don’t know, love. What time of day will it be?” Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain. She opened her backpack, took an invitation to read the time, before looking at Luna before answering. “It’s going to be night, Luna. It will be at midnight”, answered Twilight Sparkle. As much as Luna wanted to accept, she still had doubts. “I don’t know, love,” said Luna. “I have my royal duties as princess of the night” Twilight seemed a little sad about that. “I know, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But are you busy tonight?” “No, love,” answered Luna. “Why?” “Because the play will be at midnight”, answered Twilight Sparkle. “So I think we can, love,” said Luna with a smile. “Do you have another invitation?” Twilight Sparkle took another invitation from the bag and looked back at Luna. “Yes, Luna” Luna noticed something and was confused. “Wait. Since we will perform in the play, why would we need invitations?” Twilight Sparkle touched something. “Ah! I’m so sorry, Luna. I forgot to warn you that the ponies in charge of the Canterlot theater told me to give the two invitations to two ponies” “Who are you going to invite, love?” asked Luna. “I was thinking of inviting Celestia and Spike”, replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna looked uncertain. “Love, I respect your choice. But Celestia and Spike must already be sleeping” Twilight Sparkle touched on that and couldn’t help but agree with Luna. “You’re right, Luna. And now? What do I do? I don’t want to disappoint the theater ponies for not giving both tickets to anypony” Luna approached Twilight Sparkle. “Don’t worry, love. If you want, I can explain to them that who you intended to invite is already asleep” Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain and a little unsure as to what Luna said. “But what if they get mad at me, Luna?” Luna hugged Twilight with a wing. “Trust me, love. I’m sure they wouldn’t be mad at you, especially with me around” Twilight Sparkle stopped to think about it and even made sense. Twilight has never seen a pony get mad at Luna. Maybe it’s because they are afraid of Luna. “Do you have everything there, love?” asked Luna. Twilight Sparkle opened her backpack to check. Twilight had food if she got hungry, your stuffed Luna and the two tickets. She closed her backpack and looked at Luna. “Yes, Luna,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “I have everything” “But before we go we need to warn Celestia”, said Twilight Sparkle. Luna had an idea. She entered In her bedroom. Twilight Sparkle was confused. She stepped forward and lifted a front and rear hull. “Luna? What will you do?” Luna returned to the door with a scroll and a quill. “I am writing a letter to Celestia that we will be outside the castle” Twilight Sparkle was relieved. “Good idea, Luna. I would hate myself if Celestia worried about both of us because she didn’t know where we would be” Luna stopped writing on the scroll. “Ready. I finished writing” “What is written, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Luna started reading. ”Dear Sister, me and Twilight will be out of the castle today because we’re going to a play. We will try not to delay, but we don’t know until what time the play will be. So, if you wake up and realize that we aren’t here at the castle yet, know that we are at the Canterlot theater. If you want you, you can and go see the play. Signed Luna” “It’s quite explanatory, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But what will you do now with the scroll?” Luna rolled the scroll before looking at Twilight Sparkle. “I intend to pass this letter under Celestia’s bedroom door” “That’s a good idea, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle, before getting confused. “But what if the scroll doesn’t go under the door?” “Then, love. I will teleport the scroll to Celestia’s room”, replied Luna. Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain. “Are you sure, Luna? What if she ended up waking up to the noise?” “Twilight, my sister has a heavy sleep,” replied Luna. “She wouldn’t wake up even if I spoke to the Canterlot Royal Voice” Twilight Sparkle still looked uncertain. “Wouldn’t it be better to open the door?” “Then she will wake up, love”, replied Luna. Twilight Sparkle didn’t understand why her mentor would wake up with the door slamming open, but she didn’t want to question. Luna started to walk to Celestia’s room and Twilight followed her. Arriving at Celestia’s bedroom door, Luna and Twilight looked at each other. Luna had a smile, while Twilight had a look of concern. “Luna, are you sure you don’t prefer to open the door?” asked Twilight Sparkle in a low tone. “I have sure, Twilight”, answered Luna in a low tone. “Trust me, love” Twilight Sparkle decided to trust Luna and allowed her marefriend to do what she wanted to do. Luna opened the letter, tried to pass down but failed. Luna looked at Twilight. “Love, I fear I will have to teleport the letter to Celestia’s room”, said Luna. Twilight Sparkle looked uncertain. Because Twilight was afraid Luna would make noise and wake Celestia. Luna thought of Celestia’s room before she made the parchment disappear and began to walk, “done, love. Let’s go now” Twilight Sparkle didn’t know if the teleportation spell teleported to Celestia’s room. “Luna, did you teleport the letter to Celestia’s room?” “Yes, love”, answered Luna. “Can I check to see if she’s really in her room?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Love, please,” asked Luna. “Trust me” “But what if you teleported to the wrong place?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Luna stopped walking and looked at Twilight. “Love, do you trust me?” “Yes, Luna. I trust you”, answered Twilight Sparkle. Luna went to Twilight Sparkle. “So trust me the letter is in Celestia’s room” “But Luna…” tried to say Twilight Sparkle, but stopped when Luna kissed her cheek. “Love, the kiss I gave you now on the cheek is proof that you can trust me”, said Luna. Twilight Sparkle tried to believe what Luna said. “Okay, Luna. I will trust you” “I’m glad you decided to believe me, love”, said Luna
Arrival at the theaterAt the Canterlot Theater, Star Twinkle waited for Twilight and Luna. He wondered if the two mares would take long to come. Beside him, was his daughter Juniper Montage. Star Twinkle kept walking in circles. He was worried that Twilight and Luna wouldn’t arrive before midnight. Juniper Montage was watching her father until she saw the costumes of the play that was to take place at midnight. She smiled and walked over to where the costumes were and dressed as a dancer before she started dancing. Star Twinkle heard the sound of jumping, stopped what he was doing, and looked where the sound was coming from. He was surprised to see his daughter dancing in a play costume. He almost ran to Juniper. And when he arrived, he took off the costume Juniper wore with his magic. “You can’t wear this, daughter,” said Star Twinkle. “This is the outfit for the play” Juniper was sad about that. Her ears lowered. “I’m sorry, Dad. But I wanted to be the ballerina of the play” “I’m sorry, daughter,” said Twinkle Star. “But I already chose who will be the ballerina of the play” Suddenly they heard hoofbeats. Twinkle Star looked back and saw Twilight Sparkle and Luna. Twilight had a possible look of concern and Luna was smiling. Twinkle Star bowed to Luna. “Princess, I’m so glad to hear that you and Twilight could come” “You’re very lucky that I could come, loyal subject,” said Luna. “Because today I had no real night duty in the Drem World” Twinkle Star looked at Luna, but still bowed. “Well, even better, right?” Twinkle Star saw Twilight and smiled, but stopped bending . “Twilight, did you manage to give both invitations I handed you to somepony?” Twilight Sparkle was nervous. Her pupils were small and she sweating nervously as she scratched her shin with a hoof. “About that, Twinkle Star… I… I…” Luna realized that Twilight was too nervous to speak. She decided to try to help, but instead decided to ask in a low tone. “Love, would you like me to speak?” Twilight looked at Luna before whispering back. “I don’t know, Luna. Can’t I talk?” “Love, you’re nervous,” whispered Luna. “You can trust me” “But what if he gets mad?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Love, do you remember the kiss I gave you on the cheek before we left?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Why?” “You remember what I told you, right?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Why do you want to know?” “So, the kiss I gave you is proof that you can trust me,” replied Luna. Twilight Sparkle stopped to think. “So?” asked Luna. “Can I talk to him for you?” Twilight Sparkle made her decision. “Okay, Luna. You can” “Thank you, love,” said Luna, before kissing Twilight’s cheek. Luna looked at the two ponies in front of her. “Twinkle Star, Twilight is sorry. But she couldn’t deliver both invitations to anypony. The two she intended to invite are already asleep” Twilight Sparkle was now very nervous about the answer. She looked at Twinkle Star afraid he would say, “I’m disappointed in you, Twilight” Twinkle Star seemed a little saddened by what Luna said, but he showed no anger or disappointment. “It’s all right, princess. I understand. Ponies usually sleep at this time of night” Luna was trying not to show sadness with the last sentence. “So, aren’t you mad at Twilight Sparkle?” Twinkle Star smiled now. “Of course not, princess. Why do you think I’d be mad at that?” Luna and Twilight looked at each other before the night princess responded. “For nothing. I was just worried about her” Luna knew that wasn’t the truth. But she didn’t want Twilight to be embarrassed just for getting nervous. She looked at Star Twinkle. “So? Are we going to start rehearsing the play now?” “Yes Princess. You know your role, right?” asked Star Twinkle. “Yes, subject,” answered Luna. “I’ll be the lead soldier” Star Twinkle looked at Twilight Sparkle now. “And you, Twilight? Do you know what your role will be in the play?” Twilight Sparkle smiled. “Yes, Star Twinkle. I will be the ballerina” Twilight Sparkle twirled like a ballerina. Star Twinkle smiled as he watched Twilight take a ballet step. “How sweet. I really chose well for you to play this role” Juniper Montage looked a little sad and angry at what her father said. But she tried to smile. “Hey, dad. Is there anything I can help with?” Twinkle Star thought for a moment before answering. “No, daughter” Juniper looked sad about that. “But can I be responsible for taking them to their dressing rooms?” “Well, I guess so, daughter,” answered Twinkle Star. Juniper was happy with that. “Thank you, dad” “Just don’t forget to take this ballerina outfit”, said Twinkle Star. “Sure, Dad.” Juniper Montage picked up the clothes with her magic before motioning for Twilight and Luna to follow. Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle with a smile. “So, love? Are you excited?” “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle with a smile. “And you?” “I’m excited too, love,” replied Luna. Juniper Montage opened the door to the Twilight dressing room. “This is your dressing room, Twilight” Twilight Sparkle came in and admired her dressing room. Juniper handed the ballerina outfit to Twilight. “And this is your outfit that you will wear in the play” Twilight Sparkle picked up the outfit with her magic. “Thank you, Miss…?” " Juniper Montage” “... Juniper Montage” Twilight Sparkle closed the door of her dressing room. She just hoped Luna wouldn’t be upset with her for closing the door. Juniper Montage walked back and Luna followed her. Luna looked over to where the Twilight dressing room was. She couldn’t help noticing that on the Twilight door was a red star, not a six-pointed star, but a normal star. Luna looked at Juniper Montage. “So, Juniper Montage. Where will my dressing room be?” Juniper looked at Luna, but kept walking. “Your dressing room is right there” Juniper Montage stopped walking and opened the door. “This is your dressing room, princess” “Thank you, subject,” said Luna before entering. Twilight Sparkle was in her ballerina outfit and her mane tied up. She couldn’t help denying that she was very pretty. Her mane was a coke, near her right ear was a flower with rose petals, her tutu was greenish in color, and her ballet shoes were pink in color. She kept admiring herself in the mirror. She had a raised front hoof with a smile on her face. “If Rarity had it here, she’d say I’m fabulous,” said Twilight Sparkle. Twilight Sparkle knew she wasn’t going to dance in the play, but she wanted to practice some ballet steps. She began to spin as she danced. She imagined dancing ballet in a rose field with Luna. Luna with a ballerina outfit too, but in black. And her marefriend threw her in the air and was caught and grabbed by Luna. But her imagination and dancing were interrupted by a knock on the door. She went to the door, opened it and was surprised to see Luna with a look of concern. “Luna? What’s happened? ”Asked Twilight Sparkle. “It’s my costume, love,” replied Luna. “He disappeared!” Twilight Sparkle was surprised. “What?”
The costumes are gone!Twilight and Luna were walking in the hallway with the dressing room doors. Twilight was without her ballerina outfit and her horsehair was no longer tied. Although her appearance was normal, she was worried about Luna. “Luna, I don’t understand,” said Twilight Sparkle. “How did your costume disappear?” Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle. “I don’t know, love. When I walked into my dressing room, the costume wasn’t there” “But how it wasn’t there, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Did you look right?” “Yes, love,” answered Luna. “I searched everywhere and I couldn’t find it” “Don’t worry, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “I’ll help you find your costume” Twilight Sparkle and Luna entered the dressing room and began searching for the costume. Twilight Sparkle began searching for costumes that were hanging in a rack. She used her magic to move the clothes to the right. “Do you know what a lead soldier’s outfit looks like, Luna?” “No, love,” answered Luna. Twilight Sparkle stopped what she was doing and looked at Luna. “But how do we find the clothes without knowing what it looks like?” “Don’t you have books in your library that talk about clothes?” asked Luna. “No, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Books don’t talk about clothes. They tell real or fictional stories” “Is there something that talks about clothes, love?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna. Magazines,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna was confused. “What are magazines?” “Magazines are journalistic, specialized and literary publications,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “What do the magazines talk about, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Magazines talk about a lot of things, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Food, fashion, sports, animals…” “Is there any magazine in the theater, love?” asked Luna. “I don’t think so, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Twilight! Twilight!” Twilight and Luna looked at the door and saw Juniper Montage with a look of despair. Twilight Sparkle approached Juniper Montage. “What happened, Juniper?” “It’s your costumes, Twilight,” replied Juniper Montage. “They disappeared from your dressing room!” Twilight Sparkle was surprised by what Juniper Montage said. “But how? How could they have disappeared? I had closed the door” “I know, Twilight,” said Juniper Montage. “But it seems that somepony who works in the theater took advantage of the fact that you were out of the dressing room to catch your costume” “I’ll go see it,” Twilight looked at Luna. “Would you like to come along with me, Luna?” Luna smiled. “Of course, Twilight” Twilight Sparkle started running to her dressing room and Luna flew to follow her marefriend. “I don’t understand, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “How did my costume go missing? Who took it?” “I don’t know, love,” replied Luna. “But don’t worry. I’ll help you find your costume” Twilight Sparkle smiled at what Luna said. “Thank you so much, Luna” Luna smiled. “You’re welcome, Twilight” When Twilight and Luna arrived at the Twilight dressing room door, they realized the door was open. Twilight Sparkle didn’t really understand who would do it and why. She wanted nothing more than to know who did it. But although she wanted her questions answered, Twilight Sparkle decided to calm down before she started searching. Luna seeing that Twilight started looking, she did the same. Twilight took the towel off the hair chair in the hope that his suit would be behind the towel. But to her unhappiness, her suit wasn’t there. Luna flew up onto a shelf with several teddy bears, took out one by one. But the suit was not there. Luna flew to a shelf with several teddy bears, took one by one. But the custom wasn’t there. Luna saw several clothes hanging and went through one to see if Twilight’s clothes were there. But, for her bad luck, it wasn’t. Suddenly they heard footsteps and stopped what they were doing. Who appeared at the door was Twinkle Star with a smile. “Twilight, Luna. Are you ready for the play?” Twilight Sparkle approached ten Twinkle Star. Her ears were down. “Twinkle Star, my costume and Luna’s are gone” Twinkle Star was surprised and scared at the same time. “What?! How?!” “We don’t know, subject,” replied Luna. “When I arrived in my dressing room, my costume wasn’t there and when Twilight came to help me, her costume was gone too” “But that can’t happen!” shouted Twinkle Star. “The play will start in a few hours!” Twilight Sparkle knew she would have to race against time. But she had no choice. “Don’t worry, Twinkle Star. Luna and I are going to find the costumes before the play” Twinkle Star seemed happy to hear that. “Really, Twilight? Can you two do this? Will you two make it?” Twilight Sparkle nodded. “Yes, Twinkle Star. We will not let your piece be damaged and we will find the thief who stole the costumes” Twinkle Star seemed happy to hear that. “Thank you so much, Twilight. You two are doing me a big favor!” Twilight Sparkle looked at Twinkle Star with a determined look. “Don’t worry, Twinkle Star. We will not let you down” “I’m so happy about that, Twilight,” said Twinkle Star. “When you find them, let me know” Twinkle Star came out of the dressing room aisle. Allowing Twilight and Luna to go looking for the costume and the thief. Luna seemed unsure of everything Twilight said. “Love, do you think we’ll be able to find the costumes and find out who the thief is in time?” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “I’m sure, Luna. If we work together, we’ll find our costumes and find out who the thief is” “I hope so, love,” said Luna. Twinkle Star was sitting on the floor on the stage in fear that Twilight and Luna couldn’t find the costumes and find the thief in time. He was very nervous. Because many of the ponies that went to the Canterlot Theater liked his plays and when he announced to the ponies that he would have a play at midnight, many ponies didn’t know if they could stay up until this time. But they would try because Twinkle Star was the owner of the theater. “Dad, is everything okay?” asked Juniper Montage. Twinkle Star stopped worrying, looked at Juniper Montage and smiled. “Yes, daughter. Don’t worry” Juniper Montage didn’t seem to believe Twinkle Star’s words. “Dad, I see you are worried about something. Come on, you can trust me” Twinkle Star decided that he should trust Juniper Montage. “Daughter, do you know the play you will have at midnight?” “Yes, Dad,” replied Juniper Montage. “Why?” “Because I have a feeling that Twilight and Luna can’t find the costumes and the thief,” replied Twinkle Star. Juniper Montage didn’t know that her father would ask for help for two ponies to find the costume, but she would calm her father. “Relax, Dad. Stay calm. Everything will work out. They will make it. I’m sure” “But what if they can’t, daughter?” asked Twinkle Star. “What if they fail?” “They’ll make it, Dad,” replied Juniper Montage. “Have faith” Although Twinkle Star was very nervous about the ponies no longer going to the theater, he decided to try to calm down and think positively. “Ok, daughter. I will try” Juniper Montage smiled at what her father said. “Don’t worry, dad. Everything will be alright”
TrapTwilight Sparkle and Luna were now on the left side of the stage. They realized that there were many clothes scattered on the floor, as if somepony had changed while another performed on stage. Twilight Sparkle was beginning to wonder if it’d had a play in the afternoon or in the morning. But it made no sense. Twinkle Star told her and Luna that she and the Princess would have a play at midnight. Don’t it have two theater performances on the same day or do it have one? Well, whether or not. She and Luna knew they couldn’t be questioning. Twilight and Luna had to work together if they needed to find customs and catch the thief. What if she and Luna can’t find the clothes and catch the thief? What if the theater ponies were disappointed? Just thinking about it made her nervous. “Is everything okay, love?” asked Luna worriedly. Twilight Sparkle realized she was standing in the same spot and was looking worried. She calmed down and looked at Luna with a smile. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I’m fine” Luna looked uncertain. “Are you sure? You had a nervous look” “Luna, don’t worry,” said Twilight Sparkle. “I’m fine. Really” Luna didn’t seem to believe that. She looked seriously at Twilight. “Love, don’t hide what you’re feeling” Twilight Sparkle didn’t want to talk about how she felt, because she thought Luna would think she was worrying for nothing. “Luna, there’s nothing worrying me. Why do you think that?” “Love…” “Really, Luna” They both stared at each other. Luna with a serious look, not believing what Twilight was telling her. Twilight was looking at Luna with a nervous smile as she sweated. There was a silence in the room, until Twilight decided to break the silence. “Well, let’s keep searching, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Although Luna still suspected her marefriend’s behavior, she decided to accept it. “Ok, Twilight. But I’m keeping an eye on you” “Of course, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. Meanwhile in a dark place, there was a pony with a black cape. He observed the two customs of the play. “With the clothes stored in this place, there will be no play,” said the mysterious pony, “and with the clothes here, Twinkle Star will not be able to perform his play” The pony just played that he forgot to bring other things from the play. “I think it’s better to get the other stuff before somepony sees me” Twilight and Luna searched the light and sound booth to see if the clothes were hidden there. Twilight Sparkle searched under the table and Luna looked at the stage from far away to look for custom. Luna had no idea where the customs were. Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle and saw that her marefriend was still looking under the table. “Love, did you find the customs?” asked Luna. Twilight Sparkle gave up searching under the table and looked at Luna. “No, Luna” “Where should we look now, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Do you know where the spotlight is?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Yes, Twilight,” replied Luna. “They stand on the stage” “Could you go to the spotlight and see if the costumes are there?” asked Twilight Sparkle. Luna smiled. “Of course, love. Where will you go while I’m looking for the costumes up there and should we meet where in the theater?” “I’ll go look under the theater to see if the costumes are hidden down there,” replied Twilight Sparkle, “and we’ll meet on stage” “Okay, love,” said Luna. “I understood” Luna walked to the door before looking at Twilight Sparkle. “Good luck, love” Twilight Sparkle smiled. “Thank you, Luna. For you too” Luna smiled at what Twilight Sparkle said before opening the door and going downstairs. Reaching the stage, she flew into the spotlight and looked around for a hanging suit. Unfortunately, she didn’t find any hanging clothes. Luna sighed. She looked at a clock that was far away and saw that it was a few minutes to midnight. One thing she knew, was that when Twilight looked at the clock it would freak out. Luna decided to continue searching for the costumes where she was. Twilight Sparkle kept searching the light and sound booth and found nothing. She decided to stop searching and go to the stage to go under the theater, also known as the moat. She went to the door and realized it had a lot of stairs. Twilight started down the stairs, careful to not fall. She began to wonder if Luna could find the costumes. Found it or not, Twilight hoped Luna was fine. When she was done down the stairs, Twilight opened the door with her magic before entering and closing it. She intended to go under the stage now to see if the costumes were there. Suddenly something fast passed through her. She looked around. “Hi? Anypony here?” Twilight Sparkle looked around for the running pony. Again, something went through her. Twilight Sparkle looked left and saw somepony with a black cape. Twilight Sparkle ran after the pony. “Hey! Stop!” exclaimed Twilight Sparkle. The pony looked back before running faster. As they ran, the two ponies passed several theater rooms. After running so much, Twilight Sparkle stopped running and sat on the floor. Her ears were down. The pony Twilight Sparkle was following was far away. “I need to warn Luna that I saw the thief,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But first I’ll check if the costumes are under the stage” Upon reaching the stage, Twilight Sparkle saw a door on the floor and opened it with her magic before entering. She realized it was very dark and used her magic to make light. Unfortunately for her, the customs weren’t there. Twilight Sparkle looked at the front door and realized it was locked. Twilight Sparkle started to get nervous and tried to open it. But she couldn’t. She began to panic. “Luna, help!” Twilight Sparkle knocked on the door with one hoof while the other held on to the entrance. Outside, the pony that Twilight had chased was holding several keys before putting it on its cover and running away. Luna was in the same spot as before and she wasn’t finding the costumes hanging. She decided to give up and land on the floor. Now she had to go looking for Twilight Sparkle. Luna intended to wait for Twilight on stage, but she heard a scream. “Help! Somepony help me!” Luna recognized the voice. It was the voice of Twilight. She looked around. “Twilight? Love? Where are you?” “Luna, you are here! Thanks to Faust. Help me!” Luna wanted to help Twilight, but she didn’t know where Twilight Sparkle was. “Love, where are you? I am not seeing you” “I’m down here, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna looked down and saw a door the same color as the stage. “Baby, are you there?” “Down here you mean? Yes, Luna. Help me please” Luna tried to open the door with her magic, but failed. “Love, I can’t open it” A silence occurred before Twilight Sparkle spoke. “Can you unlock the door with your magic?” Luna smiled. “It’s not a bad idea, Twilight” “Do you think you can do it, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “I’ll try, Twilight,” replied Luna. Luna closed her eyes as she carried her magic. She hoped it would work. Luna was an alicorn. She had to make it. Luckily for her, she did it. The door made a noise before the door opened, revealing Twilight Sparkle with a smile before hugging Luna. “Luna, thanks for saving me,” said Twilight Sparkle. Luna returned the hug with a smile. “You’re welcome, love” Twilight Sparkle and Luna left the hug. “So, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Did you find the clothes down there?” Twilight Sparkle was sad and her ears dropped. “No, Luna. I have no idea where the costumes are” The unicorn glanced at the clock to see what time it was and saw that it was eleven thirty at night. She panicked. “Oh my Celestia! Soon it will be time to introduce ourselves and we haven’t found the customs yet and we haven’t had time to rehearse!” “Calm down, love,” said Luna. “We’ll be able to find the clothes and have time to rehearse” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “I know, Luna. But I’m afraid it’s disappointing them” Luna touched something. “Wait. So this why you were nervous? Were you nervous that you couldn’t find the clothes and catch the thief before the play started?” Twilight Sparkle blew out a breath, her ears were down and she stared at the floor. “Yes, Luna” “But why didn’t you tell me that, love?” asked Luna, now a little sad that Twilight had hidden her feelings. “It’s just that I thought I could handle myself,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna approached Twilight and wrapped a wing around her marefriend. “Twilight, I understand you” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna in surprise. “Really, Luna? You understand me?” The alicorn smiled. “Of course, Twilight. Before I was banished to the moon and the ponies enjoyed my night like today, I felt sad. Celestia understood my sadness and wanted to know why I was sad” Twilight Sparkle was curious. “Why didn’t you tell Princess Celestia?” Luna was sad now, but it wasn’t aimed at Twilight Sparkle. “Because I would rather keep everything I felt for myself rather than venting to my sister and the result you know” Twilight Sparkle felt sad that Luna had spoken of her past. “Luna, I’m so sorry that you have to talk about it” “Twilight, don’t blame yourself,” said Luna. “Sorry, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “It’s just that I pity you for hiding given what I felt ” Luna smiled. “No problem, Twilight. Now, let’s return to our search for customs?” “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Okay, Twilight,” said Luna. “What are the places we haven’t checked yet?” Twilight Sparkle thought before answering. “The livong room, the press room and the administrative part” “Will the costumes be in one of these places, love?” asked Luna. “I believe so, Luna,” answered Twilight Sparkle.
Mystery almost solved (Rewritten)When Luna and Twilight arrived in the living room, they saw that the room was white, with cookware on the stove, wooden spoons, pink kitchen aprons with flowers, white chef’s hat, three closed windows, a drawer. and a closet. Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “Luna, I’ll go look in the closet” “And me, I’ll look in the drawer, love,” said Luna. “If you find the costumes just call me,” said Twilight Sparkle, “and if I do, I’ll do the same.” Luna understood, went to the light brown drawer and opened it with her magic. She hoped the costumes were in one of the drawers. But unfortunately, it wasn’t. Twilight Sparkle walked to the closet and opened it. But the clothes of the play weren’t there. Inside the cabinet, there were only glass plates. She closed the cabinet with the utmost care that the plates wouldn’t break. She went to Luna. “So, Luna?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “You found?” Luna looked at Twilight Sparkle. “No, ove. And you?” “Me neither, Luna.” Luna began to believe the clothes wouldn’t be here. “Come on, love. The costumes aren’t here.” “Luna, we need to look everywhere.” “But Twilight, I already looked here,” said Luna, “and I wasn’t” “But they must be here. I’m sure.” “How are you so sure?” asked Luna. “We already look in the most likely places to be and haven’t found it yet” “Luna, you have to be patient,” said Twilight Sparkle. “I also want to find the costumes before the play starts and I don’t want to disappoint them” “I’m sorry, love,” said Luna. “It’s just a few minutes to midnight and we haven’t even rehearsed the play yet.” Twilight Sparkle tried to stay calm, despite starting to panic inside. “W-We’ll make it, Luna” “I hope, love.” Suddenly, something went very fast through the door. Luna and Twilight Sparkle looked back. “What was that, love?” asked Luna. “I don’t know, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Do you think we should check?” “Yes, Luna” Twilight Sparkle and Luna left the room they were in, and looked around for the figure that had just passed the hallway. “Was it our imagination, Twilight?” asked Luna. “Maybe, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I hope so, love.” The two returned to the room looking for the costumes. What they didn’t know, was that the pony that was responsible for the figure hit his hoof on the ground. He was cursing to himself that it would be easy to catch the attention of the two mares. The hooded pony tipped over its hooves so as not to make a sound, and upon arriving at the door, he saw Twilight Sparkle and Luna searching for the costumes. He started to think. How would he draw attention from both mares? Until, the pony had an idea. He entered the room quietly, opened the cabinet, took a plate and broke it to get attention. Twilight and Luna heard crashing plate noise and looked where the sound was coming from and were surprised to see the hooded pony in front of them. Twilight Sparkle ran to him. “Stop!” The pony began to run. He glanced back and saw Twilight and Luna run up to him. The pony looked forward and saw the door inside, it was very dark, he entered the darkness of the room. Twilight Sparkle and Luna entered the room. Upon entering, they used the magic of their horns to illuminate. They began to walk calmly until they were pulled by a rope to the ceiling. The lights came on. Twilight and Luna looked down and saw the mysterious pony staring at them before smiling. Luna began to tap into the trap that she and Twilight were trapped in hopes of the Two being released, while the Unicorn looked around the room for something for them to break free. “It’s no use,” said the pony. The two mares stopped what they were doing and looked at the pony. “There is no escape from this trap,” said the pony. Twilight Sparkle was annoyed. “You won’t get away with this, mysterious pony!” “I think I will, Twilight Sparkle,” said the pony. Twilight Sparkle was surprised. “How do you know my name?” “Twilight, since you arrived at the theater with Luna, I’ve been watching you.” “Show me who you are!” shouted Luna. “No,” said the pony. “I will not show my face. What would be the fun of revealing my identity?” “Do you know who you’re talking to?” asked Luna. “You’re talking to the princess of the night” “And you think I don’t know, Luna?” asked the pony. Luna was confused. “How do you know our name?” “Luna, I know everypony’s name,” answered the pony. “I know the names of everypony who goes to this theater” Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna. “Luna, this is like playing detective. We need to find out who is to blame” “You can try anything to catch me,” said the pony. “But you won’t be able to catch me. Never!” The pony began to laugh before leaving and closing the door with his magic. Luna could only glare at the door. She intended, after discovering this pony, to send him to the castle catacombs. Twilight Sparkle looked around again as she did this, the Unicorn also tried to locate which part of the theater they were in. In the room there was an office, desks, computers, and phones. She could locate where they were. She smiled and looked at Luna. “Luna.” Luna stopped glaring at the door and looked at Twilight with a calmer look. “Yes, love?” “I think figuring out which room we’re in,” said Twilight Sparkle. “Really, Twilight?” asked Luna. “What room are we in?” “The administrative room,” answered Twilight Sparkle. “This is room we haven’t checked yet” Luna smiled. “So could that mean maybe the costumes are here?” “I’m sure, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Good,” said Luna. “But how do we get out of here?” Twilight Sparkle looked around again and saw a red case with flower designs on the table. She had an idea. She took the case and brought it inside. Luna was curious and raised an eyebrow. “Love, what are you looking for?” Twilight Sparkle was still searching, but answered Luna. “I’m looking for a scissor, Luna” “Why are you looking for a scissor, Twilight?” asked Luna. “To cut the rope that is holding us up here, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. Luna smiled. “You’re smart” Twilight stopped searching and looked at Luna with a smile. “Thanks, Luna” “You’re welcome, love,” said Luna. Twilight Sparkle returned to search until she finally found the scissor. “I found!” Twilight returned the case to where it was and carried the scissors to the rope that held them. Twilight just hoped the scissor cut the rope and luckily, she managed to cut it. They began to fall. But Luna flapped her wings and grabbed Twilight Sparkle with her magic. Twilight Sparkle smiled. “Thank you for saving me, Luna” “You’re welcome, baby,” said Luna. Luna landed on the floor and put Twilight on the floor. When she released the unicorn, Twilight went to Luna to hug her. Luna was surprised to be hugged, but soon returned the hug. As they left the hug, Twilight Sparkle began to think. Who could this hooded pony be? Until she had an idea who it could be. “Love, is everything ok?” asked Luna. “Yes, Luna,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I was just thinking” “What were you thinking?” “I was wondering who this hooded pony might be.” “Do you know who it is?” “I don’t know, Luna. But I’m sure I already know who it is. But for that, we need to find the costumes first” “Let’s look here, Twilight,” said Luna. “Yes, Luna,” said Twilight Sparkle. “After all, this was one of the places we haven’t been looking for yet” Twilight and Luna started searching for costumes in the room. Luna was flying to see if she would locate the costumes. Twilight searched behind the furniture, but didn’t find it. “Luna, I don’t think it’s here,” said Twilight Sparkle, still with her back and ears down. “Love, I found it!” shouted Luna cheerfully. Twilight Sparkle was confused, she looked back, her ears brightened and looked at Luna, who was looking up from a closet. “Did you find the costumes, Luna?” Luna was still looking over the closet, but answered. “Yes, love. Would you like to ride in me to see?” “Yes, Luna. Please,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Luna landed on the floor so Twilight could ride in her. When Twilight succeeded, Luna flew carefully to the top of the closet. Twilight smiled with what she saw. “The costumes! We found!” Luna picked up both costumes with her magic and carried them to the ground before landing on the floor and Twilight dismounting from her. “And now, love?” asked Luna. “Let’s warn the theater ponies that we already found the clothes, now we just have to figure out who the thief is,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Author's Note I must confess, the chapter is much better than before. And I wanted to apologize to those who didn't like this chapter as it was written before.
And the thief is...Luna and Twilight were in the same location as they found Juniper Montage and Twinkle Star. Twilight Sparkle delivered the two costumes. “Luna and I already found the costumes.” Twinkle Star was happy. “Oh. Thank you very much, Twilight. Now we can start rehearsing the play!” “We can’t rehearse the play yet, Twinkle Star,” said Twilight Sparkle. “But why not, Twilight?” asked Twinkle Star. “We have to find out who the thief is so he doesn’t steal the costumes again,” replied Twilight Sparkle. Twinkle Star seemed to accept what Twilight said. “You’re right, Twilight. But how are we going to catch the thief?” “Simple. A trap,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “Love, what trap will we set?” asked Luna. Twilight Sparkle looked at Luna and whispered in her ear. Luna smiled. “I liked the idea.” The hooded pony returned where Twilight and Luna were trapped and saw the ceiling rope cut. He got angry. “So the two mares managed to escape the trap?” asked the pony, not happy. “Doesn’t matter. I will form a new trap and they will be trapped again.” The pony entered the room. What he didn’t see was Twilight Sparkle following him. Twilight Sparkle didn’t enter the room, just watched him very close to the door. The pony saw its case open. Next to the case was a pair of scissors. “So, did they manage to escape with that scissors?” asked the pony. “It doesn’t matter too. In the next trap, there will be nothing but the trap.” “Hey! You! Mysterious pony!” The hooded pony looked back and saw Twilight Sparkle. He looked angry. “Come get me!” Twilight Sparkle started to run. “Get back here!” the hooded pony started running after Twilight Sparkle. Twilight Sparkle was running very fast. She looked back before smiling and running faster. She just hoped the trap would work. It had to work. Because after all, if it didn’t, Twilight would have disappointed Twinkle Star. When Twilight Sparkle arrived where the trap was, she stopped. Behind her, was a fishing net on the floor, and behind the curtains were Luna and Twinkle Star, who held the net with ropes. Twilight Sparkle saw the hooded pony running towards her. “There you are!” She waited for the right moment. In the curtain, Luna looked worriedly at Twilight Sparkle, she feared that the cover pony would get her marefriend. The mysterious pony took a big leap to Twilight Sparkle. When the hooded pony came very close, Twilight teleported and the pony fell into the fishing net. “Now!” Luna and Twinkle Star pulled the rope and the pony was pulled up. “Luna. Twinkle Star. Tie the strings.” Luna and Twinkle Star tie up there in the spotlight. Twilight Sparkle approached the mysterious pony. “Time to discorver the thief,” she removed the black pony cloak with her magic, revealing... “Juniper Montage?!” shouted Luna and Twinkle Star in unison, surprised. Juniper Montage had an expression of shame. Twinkle Star approached Juniper Montage. “But why, daughter?” he was nothing more than confused. Why did his daughter do this? Twilight Sparkle looked at Twinkle Star. “Allow me to explain to you, Twinkle Star?” “Yes, Twilight,” replied Twinkle Star. “The reason Juniper Montage did all this was because she was jealous,” replied Twilight Sparkle. “I could see her anger when she heard that I was going to be the ballerina and not her.” “What do you mean, envy, Twilight?” Twinkle Star was even more confused than before. “Do you remember when you praised me about choosing me well to be the ballerina for the play?” “Yes, Twilight. But what does that have to do with it?” asked Twinkle Star, still confused. “I could see from Juniper Montage’s expression that she wasn’t happy at all with what you said,” she replied. “But her expression had changed a few seconds ago, and that made me think that something wasn’t right with Juniper Montage. But she had offered to show Luna and me our dressing rooms. But there was a problem: The outfit for me use for the play was there and for Luna, don’t.” “Love, I don’t understand anything. Why did Juniper Montage do that?” asked Luna. She looked more confused than the Twinkle Star. “Do you remember when we were going to your dressing room to do a search and Juniper Montage came up to me to let me know that my suit was gone?” asked Twilight Sparkle. “Yes love.” “So, she had taken advantage of when I left the room to steal my costume.” “But why did she want to steal the lead soldier’s costume, love? I wouldn’t be the ballerina in the play.” Luna lifted a hoof. “Simple. Juniper thought that if she couldn’t be the ballerina for the play, the play wouldn’t happen,” replied Twilight Sparkle to Luna. “And I would have done it if it weren’t for these two meddlesome mares,” said Juniper Montage, not happy. Luna went to Juniper Montage nothing happy. “Don’t call me and my love of a meddlesome!!” “I really can’t believe it, daughter. All of this because you want to perform in a play.” Luna looked at Twinkle Star. Twinkle Star wasn’t happy at all. “I’m sorry, Dad. I just wanted to be the ballerina. Because then, everypony would love me,” said Juniper Montage, now sorry. “Daughter, I had already said several times: You’re very young. You can’t work in the theater yet,” said Twinkle Star. “But could you forgive me?” asked Juniper Montage now with a smile. “Okay, daughter. I forgave you,” Juniper smiled. “But you will no longer be able to help me in the theater. From now on, you will be staying at the popcorn stand.” Juniper Montage’s smile fell. “What? No, dad!” “I’m sorry daughter, but I already said that you wouldn’t participate in any play, you would only help me,” Luna returned to the floor. “Well, Twilight and Princess, are we going to start our rehearsal?” “Sure,” said Twilight Sparkle and Luna in unison. “But first, Twilight, could you get my daughter out of there?” asked Twinkle Star. “Sure.” Twilight Sparkle went over to where the strings were and untied them. Juniper Montage started to fall, but she fell on her parent’ hooves. “Daughter, follow me, I’ll show you where you will work,” Twinkle Star released Juniper Montage from his lap and walked to a door, Juniper Montage got off the fishing net and followed him. When he reached the door, he opened it, revealing a cart of popcorn. The popcorn cart was outside the theater, the moon was still in the sky. Juniper Montage went to the popcorn cart sadly. Upon arriving at the popcorn cart, Juniper Montage watched her father close the door. Her sad expression was changed to anger. Twilight, Luna. You two will pay. I’ll have my revenge. Author's Note I'm sorry if you didn't like what Junniper Montage received, but I wanted her punishment to be the same as the Equestria Girls: Movie Magic short
