Celestial double
Chapter 10
Previous ChapterNext Chapter"you believe her?! Surely you can't be serious!" Luna exclaimed as she lightly stomped her hoof on Celestias desk.
"I believe what the professionals tell me Luna, as well as the tests. They both tell me, as improbable as it may seem, that Micheal is my sister, and in turn, yours as well" Celestia said, earning an irritated groan from the lunar alicorn.
"There must be a mistake, there can be no way she could be a relative of ours!" Luna started to say as celestia read through some documents needed to be signed.
"And where did she even come from?! Why is she a, copy of you?! And what is this war and America she keeps mentioning?! I do not trust her sister, and frankly, neither should you" Luna continued, as she began pacing around the office.
"How can you be so lenient with her? Have you seen the way she acts? From what I've been learning ever since my return from the moon, that is not how ponies act in modern times!" Luna continued.
Again, Luna lightly stomped her hoof on Celestias desk, forcing the attention of her sister onto her.
"Don't you find it, the least bit strange?" Luna finished.
Celestia sighed before responding.
"I find it weird as well Luna, her sudden appearance did seem odd, especially at a time like this, but, I believe there is a reason for everything, including things I cannot or didn't foresee" Celestia began.
"I will give her a chance, so far, she hasn't proven to be a threat to any pony, and as far as I'm concerned, she just seems, confused. Similar to you, when you returned" Celestia continued.
Luna felt, conflicted by that statement.
Even if Micheal was confused, and in fact her sister, why did she, explode like that with her?
No normal pony would just freak out like that at the beginning of an aggressive interrogation.
Nervous, yes. Defensive, maybe, but using the royal Canterlot voice?! A bit much, no?
...
"Luna?"
Celestias voice broke in through lunas ongoing thoughts.
"Hm? ... Very well, I shall give her a chance, if only for the values of friendship that have become so popular during my absence" Luna said as she headed for the door.
"Where is she now?" Luna asked, looking back at Celestia.
"If she isn't still in my reading room, I would assume she is out exploring the castle" Celestia answered.
Luna nodded, before speaking again.
"And what of twilight? When will her celebration be?"
"Hopefully, next week, once the preparations are complete"
"Will Micheal be innagruated as well?"
"Of course, she is an alicorn after all, that does make her a ruler of Equestria, Micheal needs to be instated"
"And are we sure that is a good idea?"
"She won't have power over many of Equestria's assets, at least not until she's been properly educated in the way of politics" Celestia started to say.
"Don't worry Luna, I'll see to it that micheal's behavior will be kept in check, at least as much as I can" Celestia finished, trying to be reassuring.
Luna left the room with a sigh.
"Yoo, disembodied voice, you here?" I ask, as I aimlessly walk through the dream Walmart.
"Yes, I'm here. How did the talk with Celestia go? your cover wasn't broken already was it?"
"Na"
"Good, you aren't entirely a failure" The voice says, with what sounds like relief.
"Your an asshole, you know that?"
"And your a lying piece of shit, you know that?" The voice retorts.
"What the- where did that come from?!"
"Why are you telling every pony your a veteran? That's not true at all!"
"Yeah I know" I say with an eye roll.
"The mission I have given you is simple, just advance my country with your human technology! There is no reason to be spreading this misinformation about yourself! Do you think this is a game?!"
"Simple?? Your tripping bruh" I started to say, as I pointed one of my hoofs towards the roof.
I'm just assuming this bozo is up there.
"If it's so easy, why don't you do it?!.. Wait, yeah why don't you just do it? Why am I even here? What the fuck?"
"I can't, for several reasons I won't explain to you right now, just know that I used the last of my magic to bring you here"
"Ok, well listen wizardy wizard, I appreciate that you picked me, really I do, but why didn't you get like, my dad? He's the governor of Arizona! He knows more about government than I do"
"Believe me, I would have, you weren't even in the list of potential candidates, but alas, we need to deal with it"
"Dam, why you kicking me in the balls like that?"
"You don't have those anymore"
...
"Fuck, your right".. I say somberly.
No wonder I didn't get any boners, I don't have a goddam dick anymore!!
How did I even forget that? Am I tweaking?
After a deep breath, I continue speaking.
"Ok, so, back to the mission, even though I'll gladly mold this country to my own red, white, and blue liking, I don't actually know a lot about weapon manufacturing, politics, ehh, nothin like that. I was still in highschool before you yanked me"
"I can see that, not to worry, there are some spells, made by yours truly, that will help you with this endeavor"
"Oh, great! Where they at?"
"They are hidden in the Canterlot archives, specifically the starswirl wing"
"Noted. Anything else?"
"For now? No, just try to practice your magic, and speak to me again once you've located the archives, I'll help you from there"
"Oh, ok. I'm gonna go wake up then, prick" I say as I do just that.
...
...
I crack open my eyes.
Alright, I'm still in that cozy room.
Standing up, I stretch the best I can with this horse body.
I notice my wavy ahh hair.. mane is kind of disheveled.
Nothing I can do.
"The guy said Canterlot archives right? Guess that's my first objective" I say out loud as I head towards the door.
If the voice didn't want me to treat this like a game, why the hell would he give me an adjective like I'm in a Zelda game?
Who knows.
I reach the door. Only to find it closed!
I know that's what doors do, but I can't open them!
Hmm.
"Maybe I can get some practice in right now" I say, as I poke my horn.
Les see, just uh..
"Open sesame!"
...
No glowing.
Shit.
