And I thought we were normal. How wrong I was.
The Book Of Sreaming. 5
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAs I regain consciousness I see Luna still sitting across from me with her horn glowing. I turn to see Uefi just waking up flexing his wings slightly. Wait..if these are human clothes how are his wings and our tails still sticking out? I'm just gonna go with magic, I'm done with questions. They're just annoying to ask.
"So can you use magic now Quentin?" Uefi asks flexing his wings a few time seeming to have gotten a handle on them.
"Yea not much but a few basic spells the rest I'll have to learn from some books. What about you, can you fly?"
"Yea I have some control over my wings now and flight knowledge floating around in my head. Thanks Luna." Uefi says getting a grateful nod from Luna. Damnit he beat me to it, oh well I guess.
"Your welcome and Quentin there is a bookshelf with some spell books on it in your room, but I would suggest you test the more complex ones upside for safety." Luna says once again slightly surprising me with her generosity.
"Thank you. So what else do we have to discuss?" I ask not being able to think of what is left for us to discuss.
"We'll there isn't much left to discuss, all that remains is for you two to choose your names, which I'm going to leave up to you after I leave, just keep in mind that the names of most ponies have something to do with their talent or color pattern." So their names are like puns or something? How do they know before birth?
"So anything else then if your leaving it to us?" Uefi asked seeming to feel left out.
"No not really. I'm just going to restart time, drink my water and go." Oh well ok that seems norma-Did she just try to causally say restart time?! *The fucking hell?***
"RESTART TIME?" Uefi says taking the words from my mind to the air.
"Oh yes, I guess I should've mentioned that. You see at 9:42 p.m. or 21:42, whichever one makes you happy, I stopped time here in Equestria so we would be able to get both of you adjusted and ,in the event it took awhile, so the ponies wouldn't be wondering where one of their princesses went." Luna says remaining indifferent to our were we just fucked with? faces.
"You know what? No. Just no. I am not going to ask. You're a deity,I'm a mortal and I'm not going to ask why the universe just ate it's own foot and grew a panda where it used to be. So is that it?" Uefi says simplifying my situation a great deal.
"Ok then. As I said I'm going to drink my water after I restart time and go." Wait....she hasn't drank any of that water yet.
"Yes, speaking of that why haven't you drank any yet." I ask being slightly curious of this.
"Well to keep dimensional balance nopony can know of your background beyond what I created. In this water is a drug that will destroy my memories of this event and maybe the rest of the night afterwards." She says picking up her water. So after she drinks that we really are on our own? Well there's two ways I can feel. Rational scared or irrationally happy. Yeah going with happy. Happy,happy,happy,happy,happy.
Luna's horn begins to glow and then I look to to see the clock turn back to 9:42 and then starts moving in the correct direction again. Luna then stands up.
"We'll I'm going to go now, remember to choose your names. Bye!" Luna says with a poof. Uefi and I then look over to each other dumbfounded.
"So how much of this do you believe anyway?" Uefi asks me seeming to be thinking the same thing I am.
"Well, at first I thought you drugged my cupcakes...but after all of this I can't bring myself to remain with that. I guess you could say I really do believe what she said. It's like you said, you can now control your wins and I can do some magic. I doubt a drug induced trance would go that far. So wanna go check the place out and go get some stuff?" I say standing up still feeling a little awkward on hooves.
"Yea I guess we better do it tonight while we won't attract too much attention. Lets check our rooms and go." He says standing up and walking over to the room he woke up in as I went across to the other one.
I walk in and see a room with most of the same commodities as Uefi's with a bed in the far left corner with a wardrobe in the far right, a door to what I guess would be a restroom and a book shelf to my right. I noticed a black box on top of the wardrobe and walked over to it. It had a small latch on the front of it with some kind of engraving on the top and sides of it. Well at least it's not some overwhelming gold lacing shit. Just a nice simple black box and simple carving.
I open the box and see the necklace. It has a simple unadjustable small link black chain with my, omg am I really gonna say it?, cutie mark..... with a silver outline on the eyes,coin bag and stiletto and black background. Nice and symmetrical. Putting it on I notice that rather than having a circle larger than the links it has a smaller one that connects to just a single link rather than the whole thing. Good, it's stationary. I guess I should go see if Uefi is done.
As I turn around I decide to grab a book in case I get some time to read. I walk over to the bookshelf and see a small notebook like book and grab it. "Stealth linked spells. A guide for stealth spells from the basics to the master level spells. Property of the canterlot royal archives, *for use by princess Luna and princess Celestia only!*" Umm? Did she mean to give this too me? Was it a mistake?.... As if I care. ALL THE SPELLS ARE MINES! But how is it containing every spell of stealth with its only a few centimeters thick, about 15 centimeters tall and about 10 centimeters wide? Thin pages?
As I walk back into the main room sticking the book into my pocket. Damn I hope I don't get caught with this on me... I see Uefi siting on the couch that isn't against the wall.
"We'll I see you like your necklace." He says as he looks over to me. I notice he isn't wearing his.
"Yea. What you didn't like yours?" I ask as he stands up.
"As a necklace? No, I wouldn't of, but since mine is actually a bracelet I like it." He says holing up his arm. His, unlike mine, is coloured beyond black and gray. With a slightly larger link chain with a rainbow colour. His cutie mark on it has a cerulean background just slightly lighter that his fur with the white clouds and rainbow feathers. Not what I would wear but nice.
"Nice. So you ready? Something tells me it's gonna be weird." I say walking over to the ladder.
"Yea thinking the same thing. Also, any thoughts on your name?" Damnit.
"Damnit forgot you have any idea?"
"Yea since its supposed to be affiliated with yourself I'm gonna go with Cloudbreaker." Nice. Close enough I guess. Hmm...what for me?
"Nice. I'll go by Still Sonata."
"No comment." Damnit Uefi you know I suck at this kind of thing.
"You have a better one?"
"No."
"Well then let's go. Also I guess we shouldn't call each other by our given names unless we're alone"
"Yea lets go."
I begin to climb the ladder to get up with Uefi behind me. As we got out be looked to the lights off in the distance. Something tells me a long night is heading our way.
***********************************************************************************************
On Luna's end.
Luna threw the glass of water off of the balcony looking down onto the everfree forest from the canterlot castle. I can't let this go for now. His soul and magic are too tuned for these conditions. He has two of them and he is still is sync with his soul extremely well. With his cutie mark and soul I can't let it go on without me watching. She thought as she turned away from the edge. I hope he finds those two books I left when I teleported back. While it may not be smart to give him every stealth spell and Starswirl's notes I hope it will help him cope with or keep away from them. I just hope they didn't say anything to him when I left him alone in his soul for those few moments. I'll just have to see how it turns out, for better or worse.
