*gasp*

She awakes with a start, surveying her surroundings. She seems to have just woken up. Well, she has, but not dreaming like everyone who goes to sleep usually does. No, she was wandering through the dreamscape, ridding nightmares from ponies dreams so they may have a good night's sleep.

"...........*sigh*"

It was the same dreamer yet again. She could not gain access to their dreams no matter how hard she tried. They were blocking her somehow. It was new to her, usually if somepony was having a nightmare she would enter it, eliminate it, and leave. This one was different however, this one didn't seem to want to let anything in. Their mind was extremely guarded.

Just as she was continuing her thoughts a knock sounded at her bedchambers.

"Sister?"

"One moment!" she replied.

The Princess of The Night walks to her bedroom door and opens it. There in the doorway is her sister, Princess Celestia, or "Celly" as she occasionally called her.

"Sister, why does thou happen to be up at this early in the morning? It is has only just turned 6," she asked.

"Well you have been waking up early as of late, I just thought I should say good morning."

"You don't have to do that for me sister."

"Oh, but I am aren't I?" she says as she walks into the room and closes the doors with her magic.

"Is it the dreamer again?" Celestia asked, likely already knowing the answer.

"Is it not obvious?" Luna says as she tiredly plops down onto her bed.

"You still cannot access their dreams?"

"I am afraid not," Luna says in reply.

"Do you still not know as to why?"

"I've only come up with theories. One is that they just don't want to let anyone in."

"They just don't want to let anybody into their dreams?"

"No no, I mean as in mentally. It seems that they want help, they are just either too afraid or they just don't want to let anybody help."

"I see," Celestia gains a thoughtful look on her face.

"Can you not just somehow pinpoint their location in real life and see what troubles them?"

"Sister, you know that everypony is still afraid of "The Mare in The Moon". It is likely they will just think I am some kind of monster. Additionally, I don't think my duties would allow enough time for a thing such as that."

"What could be troubling them so much that bit even you can get in?"

"I wish I knew sister. This one individual has had these dream for about a year and a half now. I just hope that whatever issue it is that it gets resolved. It's scary to think what kind of nightmares they could be having as to where not even I can access them."

A long moment passes where they both say nothing, just sitting in the silence of the moment.

"So," Celestia abruptly says, "I am feeling quite hungry, aren't you?"

"Sister, you are always feeling hungry," Luna says, snickering to herself.

"Oh, hush you!" Celestia says in a playful manner, "Why don't we go get something to eat?"

Luna sighs.

"Sure."
