Dream Weaver-part 1
By: SPltFYre
Tonight was like any other night in Equestria. Especially for The princess of the night. With her nightly routine of waking up at 7:00 in the afternoon to going to bed at 6:00 in the morning, so her sister could raise the sun. As Princess Luna’s royal duty, she must look after all of her subjects at night by doing what she calls “Dream Weaving”. It’s not her favorite thing to do when she is looking over the night, mainly because she doesn’t like the feeling of going through every pony’s personal thoughts while they sleep, to her it just doesn’t seem like a thing a princess would do, but alas her sister has commanded it be done. She followed her routine every night, helping the ponies who needed to either face their fears like with Scootaloo, or to steer them in the right direction. One night while Luna was dream weaving she came across a very disturbing scene in some ponies dream, She was invisible to the ponies in the dream so she had no problem eavesdropping on them. One of the ponies was gray with a navy blue mane; he looked weak and helpless to the other pony towering over him. The other pony was about a foot taller than he was an alicorn with metal plated armor all over his body, his fur was red with a black mane, and had a golden mist seeping from his eyes. When he talked to the weak pony he had a deep tone that was menacing but firm. When Luna took a second glance she thought it was King Sombra, but realized it was something way worse then Sombra. Immediately she withdrew herself from the dream, and had ordered the closest guard to her to get Celestia, and meet with her in the royal meeting room immediately. Not to long after Luna arrived at the room Celestia arrived with a scared face on, knowing that Luna would never wake her unless it was a dire emergency. “Tia! Finally thou are here. we have terrible news, Shadow caster has returned.” Celestia started to sweat worryingly, knowing that this foe was nothing Twilight and her friends could handle. But could possibly help with. Then she spoke up “Luna, this is not good as you already can tell but are you sure that it is Shadow Caster?” Luna proceeded,”Tia, we are sure that it is….Shadow Caster.” Celestia spoke up again. “ this wont be Easy for you but you will have to go back into the dream. It is the only way we will be able to defeat him, before he turns anyone else like he did with you.” Luna Proceeded,” I guess we have no choice do we not?”
Luna Went back to her room with Celestia, Knowing that what she was about to face was be a great deal of terror for her. As she set herself on her bed she started to perform the dream weaver spell. As she went under it took her about five or six minutes to find the dream she was previously in. It was the same scene as before, Shadow Caster towering over the helpless little pony. He had started to speak,” Well now you worthless welp, you shall feel the wrath of my invert Spell as did The mighty Princess Luna, Which had turned her into the feared Nightmare moon. Or what was the great ruler of the badlands; you might know her by her more feared name, Queen Chrysalis. But at the state you are in, you really don’t have any choice.” Shadow Caster started to perform the invert spell, slowly turning the helpless pony into a black and yellow alicorn. He grew to the size of Shadow Caster with in seconds. As Luna had taken a second look, that helpless little pony was the prince of saddle Arabia. She had been terrified that Shadow Caster would turn the helpless pony before she could do anything, and to reveal herself.
She woke up from the spell with a gasp and them being winded, Her whole body was beaded with sweat from head to hoof from the terrifying scene she had jus witnessed. She had also been stunned by the unhealthy wake up from the spell. It took a few seconds for her to be able to hear Celestia screaming at her. When she regained her focus and healthy physical state Celestia was blaring in her ear,” LUNA! LUNA!, are you okay?!” Luna spoke up,” yes, we are okay. Now would thou stop yelling in our ear” Celestia apologized “sorry Luna you weren’t answering me after you woke up. So were you able to stop it?” Luna proceeded,” No, we were not able to stop Shadow Weaver. Thou has turned the royal prince of saddle Arabia into a dreaded beast as thou did to us.” Celestia stammered,” No, this can’t be happening again. We must warn the other nations. Guards! Get twilight and her friends down to the castle immediately!”
