The Night's Silence

*BOOM*

The echo came back, through the house, less Violent. I Started to Lift The smaller Alicorn to the bed. "Twilight... Whats happening?" I asked Twilight, as I made the unconscious princess comfortable. "I don't know... it may have something to do with the portal..." she said, as I helped her move Princess Celestia to the couch. "so... the portal could be closing?" I say taking a guess. "yes, it could be...Celestia might know." she said after we placed Celestia on the couch. "what about them?" I ask pointing to Celestia. "We wait for them to wake up" I looked at Rose signaling to go outside. looking back at twilight, "going to fly for a little bit" telling her "need to clear my head...and try to explain to Rose what's happening" looking back, to follow Rose out.

.................................................................................................................................................................

we jumped from the balcony and flew up on a cloud near by. "...so yeah that's pretty much everything that happened when you when out." I said explaining what those Ponies told me. "So, we are just lucky to have them appear here, then? To save us from that fall?" she asked "I'm only assuming what happened after we got blinded, but yes" I answered. "lets fly again, I need time to think." looking towards the moon barely visible during the day. "same..." Rose replied.

we both fly off not really knowing where to go we drift off from each other and eventually stop and hover for a bit, trying to figure out whats going to happen. Looking at my sister I say "we should check on them..." I said Rose just nodded and started going towards the house, with me following her.

.................................................................................................................................................................

'So...what to do, while waiting for the Princess to wake up...' Twilight thought to herself. looking around she gives herself a quick tour of the floor they where on, not really wanting to know whats down the stairs. finding a pure white feather, she levitates it and walks back to the couch and lying down beside the unconscious princess. inspecting the feather, twirling and spinning the feather. The pure white feather is so... familiar but unable to nail whats deep in her mind she ignores the weird feeling. noticing that the feather is the same as Celestia's but slightly smaller, but a difference, it was wider and slightly longer. 'could she have already been here?' thought Twilight. 'no, why would she be here? It doesn't look like Rose`s feather, too big... who's then?' thought Twilight. Celestia stirred a little. "ugh...." Celestia moaned quietly. I'll go check on Luna... Twilight thought still trying to find the owner of the feather.

As she walked in the room Luna rolled to see who it as looking playfully energetic. "Hello Twilight!" Luna said smiling "Wow your happy..." Twilight said confused because Luna usually is calm, not hyper like this. "Ooo... who feather is that?" Luna asked getting up to look at it with wonder "It looks like Tia's feather, did you take one while she was sleeping?" she asked looking at Twilight. "No I found this by the door leading downstairs, but it does look like her's" Twilight said levitating it in between them. Celestia's head rose from the couch looking around. "ow... my head" she said, "what happened...oh... right....the boom, Twilight we need to find the portal soon, it may close...or worse, bring these worlds together." Celestia said looking at Twilight "What was the sound?" Twilight asked "It was magical feedback from our attempt to close it earlier" Celestia explained. "So, that's why you where knocked unconscious?" Twilight said starting to understand what's happening. "Yes, where you?" she said, asking Twilight "No, I was awake the entire time." said Twilight looking at her trying to see what she's getting at. "Hmm..." Celestia trying to figure out why Twilight didn't go down, like the Alicorns, after all she was one herself...

Luna bounced out of the room and on Celestia. "Hi, Tia!" Luna said still energetic. "Well, I know Luna's been affected by the feedback..."  She sounding irritated. Celestia gets up and walks outside. "I need some fresh air, I'll be back soon." She said opening her wings and gracefully flying away. "Ooo... I want to come!" Luna said getting ready to fly "No.. stay her please... I need time alone." Celestia said as she looked back at her sister. "oh...Ok " Luna said, slight sound of sadness in her voice. "let's find sometime to do for now Luna" Twilight said trying to get Celestia's sister to calm down. "She'll be back later." Twilight said "Ok..." Luna said wondering what to do. "We should explore the house!" Luna suggested "maybe we should wait for Xavier and Rose to get back first" Twilight said trying to stop Luna from going down the dark creepy stairs, "We would get lost without them or at least until Celestia gets back, she might be able to light the room down there." Twilight said as she looked through the door at the darkness. It just stared back at her, eerily. "Ok...lets wait, but what do we do while we wait?" Twilight tried to think of something to do but nothing came to her.

"I feel like sleeping so just go... find something to entertain yourself" Twilight said as she walked to the couch to lie down and rest. "Ok..." Luna said looking around waiting for Twilight to fall asleep. walking to the other room, and waited for about 10 minutes, then walked down into the dark room. it smelled of rotting wood, rusting metal and was extremely dusty. Luna cast a spell to create a light and walked around, exploring the room. it was massive, as far as she could tell she walked for a little bit looking something interesting. Luna stopped, turned around, hearing something moving behind her. she couldn't see anything around just some empty boxes lying on the ground. finding a feather that looked like Celestia's but not quite, something was different about it... it doesn't feel like her type of magic on it. in fact it didn't have a trace of magic on it. So it couldn't be her's, so who's was it? *rustle* "Hello?"she said out loud. Luna continued walking down across the room, through a hallway, looking for the source of the sound. turning around, she saw someone else was down here with her...
