The alternate's reality rainboom- part 2 soft pillows

------ Coffee Plantation grounds, east of New equestre, august 18th, year 3 PDH (Post dragon heroes)----

Meanwhile on the east side of equestre on a family owned plantation of coffee was a pink skinned, pink maned and blue eyed earth pony filly helping her family carry heavy bags of coffee beans fruit of the same farm. This beans being sold to all equestre, mainly however to the royal guard since it was a staple drink in the kingdom since besides it flavor the add on of having a good state of alert was key in detecting danger.

"Ma, pa i am so tired!, and this bag is so heavy!" even at her 7 years she was forced to work by her family, just like her sisters. Afterall in a world in war, Children exploitation laws were less severe and besides its not like her parents did not work. In fact they carried most of the heavy work but if their childreen 6 or older wanted to eat, they had to earn their bread like anyone else in the family.

"Pillows...come on, its only a couple more of this." Her older sister Blanket egged her on in her usual monotone voice.
"Stop pampering her, Blanket you are not helping her!" complained her not quite as old sister morning mane.
"Morning, please understand her narcolepsi.." her other sister whispered.
"I know!, but we need to make her user her will to somewhat gain control of it!,otherwise letting her sleep all the time is not going to help her either!" the sisters briefly discussed before letting all the bags in the old carriage and getting in the house.

"We will make dinner, take a break Pillow" her mother said as everypony but her entered the barn-house.

after a sad sigh she looked at the sky "this damn ill-ness, i love sleeping but ... what is the point if i never have enough of it to live my life?" Soft pillows, sadly whispered. The little filly, suffered mild yet functional narcolepsi. Due to her working in a coffee bean farm and basically coming from a family of bred coffee bean farmers the accumulated effect of the constant exposure and consumption to the caffeine of coffee, the genes regulating sleep in her family had gone altered, obviously due to the constat effect of the stimulant in their blood stream.However for most of her family while it had always been a little odd sleep,it was really nothing affecting life quality significantly.However in her case, she could sleep for 14 hours straight and Have energy for perhaps 10 at best if she did not over stressed her body, taking away a big part of the day and leaving little for her to enjoy, not to mention other inconveniences of ocassionaly getting so tired she can get to sleep in random situations. She had non cataplexia Narcolepsi.

However that would change oh so very soon.

giving a yawn as the dawn was clear she started getting sleepy looking at the dawn. " oh, well Gotta go back to Sle-" she let another yawn "eep" but before she could turn back to the house barn this universe's version of the rainboom happened. making her witness an epic beam of aurora borealisin the sky pulsating waves of lavander trough the kingdom messing her mane.

"...that...thats!... SO COOL!" due to the narcolepsi,being young and constantly helping in the farm, she did not had many chances to see or do funny things, let alone see something like this!.

The wave of emotion she got, was like none other in her whole life, over stimulating her brain in just the right ways, wich would a doctor later explain was a miracle. Then, she noticed something...

"HUH!?, im not the sleepy anymore? why!" she was confused and yet exctatic.

"MOM!, DAD!" She ran to her parents and sisters with a big smile on her face and eyes full of life while her parents and sisters just looked back at her mouth so open, flies could enter. They had NEVER ever seen her so full of energy and life, not even after the times she slept like

"I was going to come back to sleep, but then...but then the rainbow, and then and then.. im not sleepy anymore!" she spoke so fast she mouth may as well be classified as a bullet train.

Without delay, the ponies took their now ball of joy they called daugher to the local doctor, fearing something was wrong since she NEVER was like this even if she wanted too, and they had fear her narcolepsi had gotten something wrong.

"Oh, this is... GREAT!, i had heard of it in papers but i truly never really believed it since i have never seen physical evidence or good amount of test subjects being used in the studies but to see a real life case is amazing!" the doctor examined the filly like a child getting a new toy.

"uhhh Doctor? care to explain?" her mother was getting impatient.

"Oh, right!. Sorry" Dr. Stable recomposed himself.

"Well, you see. Since narcolepsy is not curable depending on the severity of the case, treatment of this disorder is symptomatic. Now, this means that while there is "treatment" like Scheduling one, two, or three 10-30 minute naps wich alleviates hypersleepiness and improves academic and work performance...its as you may have experienced with your daughter here, not enough. HOWEVER there have been some very few documented cases of significant improvement in recent papers of Minotaurs of south equestre wich have noted that in most of this cases the correlation seemed to be the stimuli related with happiness and joy wich reduced hypnagogic hallucinations and sleep paralysis!"

"wich means?" asked her sister morning mane

"That, usually in some patients after getting enough joy induced stimuli during that day, that same day they can have a higher tolerance to sleepiness and higher decree of alert, getting a better quality of life! but in this filly's case is EVEN better from what you told me since apparently since she has been like this since... 5 days ago?"

"yes, we live far away from here." blanket shortly answered.

"Correct. So whatever stimuli she had was so great that the record duration of the effect of positive stimuly of the paper was overcome!, no other patient had an event so joyful that increased their sleep quality and lowered the need to sleep for more than 2 days!"

everyone gasped.

"so... this means..." their parents were getting teary eyed

"I cant assure you 100% but... the event may have given such a level of joy hormones that perhaps her brain circuits have rearanged in a way and she could... key emphasis in could... be somewhat cured or at the very least could have a better quality of life from now on."

Soft pillows face was so bright, the sun paled in comparison as she jumped all over the place. "I have never felt joy like this before!,it feels so good!!, it makes me want to keep feeling like this forever and i want everyone to keep smiling Forever and i want everyone i know to do so too!!!!"

"oh but ranbow beams dont come that ofteri wonder how else can i create smiles an joy..." she wondered to herself as she returned home with good news for the family.

Once they arrived home that same night, Pillows got an IDEA!, And after their parents and sisters came back from the near town commerce a half day away what awaited them was a barn house full of tainted coffee bean rest made decorations, music playing from the main hall and recently made food with their daugher reciving them with a smile and open arms as her family entered the house.

"You guys like it? its called a slumber party!" she exclaimed with joy and a laugh at the irony. For some seconds there was silence and the lips of her loved ones were trembling and she assumed they did not like what they saw and found coming back but before she could get sad their trembling lips turned into smiles and gave her a hug "ohyou like it?! , im So happy!!!" she was happy as a fiddle as 3 multicoloured pillows with party logos on them appeared on her neck.

idea concept for soft pillows kinda, just imagine the pillows in her neck as a tatoo
