Happy Prankday!

(Celestia's Birthday)

Celestia and Wilfred marched down a long stone hallway swiftly dodging anypony that stood in their path.

"Wilfred, I'm only going to have a limited amount of time to spend adhering the day-court today. I'm on a tight schedule with several other important matters that need to be upheld." Celestia informed, continuing her quick pace down the hallway

"Oh, I see. Is it your birthday already? Should, I acquire you a helmet for the occasion?" Wilfred replied with a smirk.

Celestia returned his smirk with a glare.

"Just make sure everypony knows I don't have all day to-" Celestia said, as she opened the door to the royal throne room, the scene in front of her causing her mouth to gape open and a slight pause of mental activity.

Before her was a scene of pure chaos. The once beautiful red curtains and rugs that dawned the walls and flooring of the room now laid in shreds, the windows of fine one-of-a-kind hoof blown stained glass now nothing more then dust and shards, the marble statues and busts made in her figure, the ones she spend hours posing for, reduced to mere stone, and finally her once loyal, peaceful subjects are to blame as they ravaged the room barely being contained by her royal guards.

Celestia shook her head putting away her face of bewilderment and replace it with a look of more royal stature.

"Everypony you need-" Celestia tried to calm her citizens, but through the yells and battery her voice fell on deaf ears.

"Please you all need to-" a rock broke Celestia's line of thought as it whizzed by her head missing by mere inches.

"Alright, fine." Celestia mumbled to herself, as she took to the air just enough to reach her throne. Perching her hoof firmly to her seat she huffed in a huge breath of air readying herself for the Royal Canterlot Voice.

"BE STILL!" She called-out, with as much force as she could muster. The wind from her voice throwing the manes of some ponies into complete disarray.

The room went silent, and no-pony dared to move an inch. Even her own royal guards froze in place.

"Thank you. Now, what might be the problem?" Celestia inquired, calmly positioning herself on the throne.

Instead of a calm collect response, that Celestia would have much preferred, she was met with a shook wave of incomprehensible gibberish do to the crowed of ponies all trying to talk at once.

"ONE AT A TIME, PLEASE!" She howled out again in the royal voice, this time not nearly as load as the last, but she could tell her point was still well received by the silent ponies.

Though, the silence didn't stay long for it was broken by a random voice from the crowed.

"L-like you have a right to tell me what to do!" The voice stuttered to say. "You burnt down my house...with the sun!"

"I have done no-"

"Yeah, and you dried out my garden...with the sun!" Another more feminine voice added, cutting Celestia off mid-sentence.

"My cat, lets not forget what you did to my cat...with the sun!" A voice belonging to a yellow mare added as she held up a cat that was completely vacant of any hair.

"Please, just give me a chance to-" Celestia tried to say before she was interrupted by even more random accusations.

"You, ate all my inventory!" A colt covered in pie blamed.

"You stole my wife!" A second very lonely looking colt exclaimed.

"For the love of all that is holy, why won't you sign my pottery papers!" A very familiar bearded mare cried.

"Now, now, you all just need to calm down and listen to-"

"Listen? Yeah right, we should all listen to the lying tyrant?"

"Yeah, come on everypony let's all hail and obey, Tyrantlestia!"

"Tyrantlestia!"

"Tyrantlestia!"

"Tyrantlestia!"

The crowed shouted in unison, each word pounding into Celestia's ear until she could no longer bare it. With a crazed look about her Celestia descended from the throne, and approached the crowed.

"Alright fine" She exclaimed, "It's all true. I was the one who did all those things." She said, walking past the guards and into the muzzle of the crowed in front of her. "So...what-are-you-gonna-do-about-it?" She inched closer with ever word she said, and in return the crowed inched back.

She paused for a moment as if waiting for a reply that would never come from the speechless ponies. With a sinister smile she turned away from the crowed.

"That's what I thought." She said, untethering her last words to the crowed, before she trotted for the door from which she came. But, to her surprise and everypony else's when she opened the door waiting for her on the other side was her self, another Celestia. The two Celestias stared into each others eye, the one in the throne room was shock while the one in the hall face look more dumbfounded than anything else. There was only one thing that told the princesses apart, the throne room princess had green eyes and the other possessed pink.

"This is the last time I sleep in." Was all the pink-eyed Celestia had time to say before the other her did a 180 and ran away.

"Hay," the princess called, as she began a chase after her green-eyed counterpart.

"Guards, stop her!" Green-eyes commanded, sprinting away in a full gallop.

"Who do we..?" A confused guard ask.

"Don't do anything." Pink-eyes answered, while she gained on herself.

Gaining speed the pink-eyed Celestia who quickly found herself within hooves reach of her other  jumped for Green-eyes only to miss her as she took up into the air causing pink-eyes smack into to the ground. Though, she quickly recovered, and readied herself for flight. Luckily, she would not have too, because when she looked up she saw her twin come crashing down after green-eyes flew to fast and us unable to stop herself in time from flying right into the ceiling. As she fell back to earth she transformed from the magnificent image of the princess to a bug like black coated and green manned alicorn with holes streaming throughout it's hooves.

What now appeared to be the real Celestia slowly approached the fallen changeling as it cowardly hide it's face behind it's hooves.

"Do not dare enter my kingdom again." Celestia told the changeling in a harsh tone. "Got it?"

The shapeshifter nodded it's head in agreement before scrambling for the exit.

"Now, then." Celestia turned around to face the crowed the very confused ponies. "As you can see, whatever has transpired here today has been the work of changeling, and there for not mine own."

"Oh," the entire crowed said in unison except for one colt who said, "Wait, I don't have a wife." before he said, "Oh,"

"As I was saying, I would like for anypony who was harmed or experienced injustice by the changelings to please form a neat line to your right. I will try to help everypony out with whatever has gone on today to the best of my abilities."

One long line of upset ponies later.

"Is that everypony?" The princess asked in a exhausted tone. Wishing to high heaven that she was the one on the moon right now.

"Wait, wait!" Star Swirl cried, as she raced forward.

"You again?" Celestia asked, with a sigh. "What do you want?"

"If I can just have a moment of your time princess. All I need you to sign this paper legalizing my-"

"I'm sorry," Celestia descended from her chair and began a trot for the exit hallway. "But, day-court will begin again on the marrow when this whole changeling finasco has died down. Now if you don't mind I have something very important meeting scheduled for today."

"Please, I just-" The bearded mare begged.

"Good day." Celestia said, opening the door to leave, but she never does as was knock unconscious by a piece of her own broken statue as it flew through the air, right into the back of the head.

"That's what you deserve!" The mare yelled back, as she made a quick escape through the door Celestia had open and now laid.

Yesterday on the moon.

"49, and 50." Luna said happily, as she counted the last bit dropping into a bag. Which she then tied up, and handed it to a Celestia with green eyes.

"You know what to do." Luna told, 'Celestia' while nodded her head.

'Celestia' nodded in response, before disappearing in a puff of smoke.

With her plan set into motion Luna allowed herself a dastardly smile.

"Happy birthday, big sis."
