Midnight awoke to the smell of pancakes and maple syrup, along with the tangent smell of burnt toast. After a moment off rubbing his eyes to wipe the sleep away he crawled out of bed making his way downstairs. As he walked past a mirror he noticed that he was back in his Alicorn body. Giving a smile he continued downstairs meeting Twilight in the kitchen who was just finishing placing the plates on the table and placing the pancakes in the center on a larger plate. Syrup and honey already at the centerpieces sides.

"Mornin." Midnight smiled to Twilight speaking more into his southern droll.

"Good morning, As I'm sure you're aware, we are back to normal." She giggled pulling up a seat to the table.

"Yep, Although I wouldn't have mind staying as you for another day." Midnight laughed levitating a few pancakes from the center of the table to his own empty plate.

"Oh really?" Twilight smirked. "And why is that?"

"Oh no reason." Midnight grinned.

"Well, I know you can shape shift. What would be the purpose of being in my body?" Twilight grinned taking a sip of orange juice causing Midnight to sputter.

"How do you know I can shape shift?" Midnight gawked.

"Rarity came by this morning to check on you since you..... I didn't check in with her the other day. We had a little talk about you and I had to make up something about how 'I' unexpectedly remembered to have to do something the other day during the spa session and had to leave to come back here." Twilight grumped looking at Midnight.

"Heh, yea sorry about that." Midnight smirked. "Anyway, Yea I can shapeshift. I thought you would have figured that out though from when I had to shrink myself to fit through most of the doors in Ponyville." Midnight raised a brow taking a sip of his juice.

"Yea, I had a hunch, But there are hunches, and then there are cold hard facts." Twilight smiled giving emphasis on the word facts.

"True. Here is a question though. Have you ever tried shape shifting?" Midnight asked cocking his head to the side in thought.

"I tried once, But the spell to cast it was waaaaaay to difficult. Plus the side effects are terrible if you get the spell wrong or it get's interrupted. There have been ponies in the past that have lost their lives trying to do the spell."

"Well, why not try that spell from my memory?" Midnight smiled causing Twilight to smile even wider as she recalled the spell from Midnights memory.

"Wow, I never would have thought of that. I should really take down notes on all those spells I learned from you." She smirked as she finished her breakfast and putting the dishes away.

"Well don't spend to long writing down the spell's. You should give that shapeshifting spell a try." Midnight smirked as he finished his breakfast, putting away the dishes after washing them.

Twilight left the kitchen to go into the main room of the library. Midnight watched as she pulled a few parchments from her desk, levitating them with a quill and inkwell to her side as she began to write down some spells she had learned.

Midnight smirked for a moment as he watched Twilight, he waved to her wondering if she was paying any attention to her surroundings. Twilight didn't do anything so he stood up and danced for a moment. Still no response.

"Hmmmmm, I think it's time to have a little fun." Midnight laughed to himself as his horn began to glow, slowly changing his form to that of Celestia. He walked over quietly behind Twilight watching her right down many notes about the spells she had learned. He moved closer casting a shadow over her and the parchment. Twilight gave a sigh.

"Midnight, you're in my light." She groaned turning to see a smiling Celestia behind her. Twilight gave an audible eep as she kneeled before the Princess.

"Princess, I'm so sorry, I thought you were Midnight. W-what are you doing here?" She spoke as she rose from her kneeling position looking at the Princess.

"Oh not much Twilight. I heard that you learned some new spells and came by to see if you would demonstrate some for me." Midnight smiled holding the illusion perfectly.

"I'd be honored Princess. I am currently writing all of the spells down as we speak. Midnight was a big help by letting me learn his spells." Twilight grinned as she continued writing them down.

"Midnight my dear?" 'Gotcha now Twi' Midnight grinned.

"Yes, I used a spell to go into his mind, I wanted to learn more about him and the quickest way was to enter his mind with his permission and open one of his memory doors to obtain the knowledge all at once." Twilight droned on as she kept writing.

"So in essence, you didn't actually learn any of the spells then. All you did was copy what someone else had already learned?" Midnight grinned widely making Twilight slouch over at the comment, He quickly removed his smile to a frown as Twilight turned around realizing what had just transpired.

"Oh my gosh! No princess, I-I mean.................." Twilight was having trouble finding the words and started to look a little uncomfortable. Midnight couldn't help himself anymore and gave a snort before laughing trying his best to hold it in before finally falling over in a heap in laughter.

Twilight looked at Celestia stunned at the sudden outburst. She didn't know what to do until Midnight changed his voice while still in Celestia's form.

"Holy crap! Haaaahahaha, Twilight you should have seen your face just now." He rolled on the floor laughing.

"MIDNIGHT!?" Twilight shouted in shock.

Midnight stood shifting back into his original form causing Twilight to gawk in disbelief. Her expression then turned to anger, then annoyance as she turned raising her nose in the air giving a hmph.

"Twi? Come on now it was just a joke. I'm sorry." Midnight pressed forward to her side, her nose turning the other way.

"That was mean, You shouldn't think so lightly about shifting into another ponies form like that." She grumped again.

"Ugh I said I was sorry Twi." He groaned flopping down next to her.

"Oh no you aren't, but you will be!" She grinned as her horn began to glow, a bright flash erupted from the room then back to normal.

Midnight blinked for a moment looking around. "Uh? What just happened?"

Twilight gave a giggle levitating a mirror to in front of Midnight. He gasped at what he saw. His beautiful black coat was now a pristine white, A perfect rivalry to Rarity's ivory coat.

"Are you kidding me?" Midnight groaned looking at Twilight which only made her giggle.

"I'll tell you what, You keep that color for the day and i'll forgive you." She grinned.

"Ya know Twi, Sometimes I just don't get you. You surprise me at every turn." He chuckled.

Twilight laughed. "Yea, I am one of a kind aren't I?" she smiled going back to writing on the scroll at her desk.

Midnight had left the library to take a walk around town. Some of the regular ponies in town gave him a double take seeing that his coat had changed colors. If it weren't for the fire mane and tail along with his stallion frame everypony would have sworn that it was Celestia walking around town. Midnight made his way back to Rarity's boutique, upon entering he noticed that she was working feverishly on several dresses at once.

"Hey doll, everything going alright?" He asked walking up to her.

"Midnight darling, so nice of you to drop by.... OH MY GOODNESS WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!" She turned smiling then noticing his white coat.

"Heh, I played a prank on Twi and she got me back by changing my coat white." He smirked.

Rarity trotted around Midnight looking him over. As she came back around the front she gave him a devious grin. "You know darling, With that white coat your toned features are far more present than they were with your black coat." She giggled looking up to him.

"Seriously? And I thought all the looks I got earlier in town were because I looked like Celestia." He laughed.

"Well there is that to. But seeing your mane and how toned you are, I doubt many would find you to be Celestia's twin." She smiled turning back around to her workstation as she continued to sew.

"Well, at least I'm not much of a lookalike." He laughed again.

"Uncle Midnight?" Sweetiebelle spoke from behind the two ponies causing Midnight to turn around.

"Hey there Sweetie." He smiled picking her up with his magic and placing her on his back between his wings."

"What in the world happened to you?" She asked looking at him and giving him a hug around the back of his neck at the same time.

"Twilight played a prank on me." He chuckled.

"Well I like it." She smiled

"Glad you do squirt. Where are yer friends at today?" He asked giving Rarity a quick peck and heading outside with Sweetiebelle on his back.

"Scootaloo is probably in Saturday detention at school, Applebloom is at her house probably playing or doing chores. I'm all alone today." She gave a hint of saddness in her voice.

"Oh don't you start that squirt. I'm here, and we can go play if you want." Midnight smiled giving a playful trot causing her to giggle.

"Really?" Her tiny voice cracked from excitement.

"Sure thing! Anything you want to do?" He trotted in place ready to go, making her giggle louder.

"Well, I wanted to ask you something." Sweetiebelle smiled but spoke softly causing Midnight to stop his playful act.

"What's up?"

"I know you can shrink because of your magic. Would you shrink down to a colt around my size, I do like you being big and all, But being able to play with somepony my size is more fun." She smiled widely.

"I don't mind at all Sweetheart." He smiled letting her jump down from his back as he began to shrink to a colt just a little bigger than she was, His fire mane turning from it's normal flame to that of an Orange and red color haired mane. His white coat still ever present.

"How is this?" He smiled looking Sweetiebelle at eye level now.

"Wow! That is so cool!" She smiled walking around him, His horn and wings still present on his body Although smaller.

"So what would you like to do first?" He smiled.

Sweetiebelle sat there on her haunches for a minute thinking. A hoof pressed to her chin as she looked to the sky for an answer.

"I got it! How about we go to Sugarcube Corner and get some cookies. Then we can go to the park and play on the jungle gym."

"Alright, I have a few bits on me, Let's go." He smiled as the trotted toward Pinkie's.

They arrive quickly at Sugar Cube Corner going inside, It wasn't that busy and Pinkie was behind the counter as Mr. and Mrs. Cake was in the kitchen working on what Midnight could guess as another order. After a couple minutes in the line Sweetie and Midnight arrived at the counter. Pinkie immediately noticing the small white alicorn gasped.

"OHMYGOSH! Are you new in town?!" She beamed happily thinking of throwing a welcome to Ponyville party for the small colt.

Midnight giggle looking to the pink party pony. "No Pinkie, it's me, Midnight."

Pinkie gave another audible gasp picking him up looking at him, noticing his Cutiemark. "Whooooooa! But how did you do that?" She seemed pretty shocked setting the little colt back down waiting for his answer.

"Im an Alicorn Pinkie, Magic is second nature to me." He smiled causing her to smile back.

"So what are you two doing in town today? Are we on a play date?" Pinkie smiled giving a wink causing Sweetiebelle to blush profusely.

"Well, now that you mention it we mmmmmMMPH!" Midnight was cut short as Sweetiebelle placed a hoof over his mouth.

"Nope, we just came by to get some cookies." She smiled laughing nervously causing Midnight to raise a brow at her.

Pinkie smiled as the two picked out some sugary sweets then trotted out of the store, Pinkie waving bye to the and wishing them a happy play date. Sweeitebelle face hoofing as they stepped outside.

Midnight trotted alongside Sweetiebelle, the bag of cookies on his back. He used his magic to levitate a cookie out of the bag and munched happily on it. Sweetie doing the same.

"Wow Sweetiebelle, You're getting a lot better at levitation magic. Just last week I noticed that you just started, and your this good already, I'm very proud of you." He chirped

"Thanks, I've been working really hard on my magic. I'm trying to get really good really quick so I can help out Scootaloo and Applebloom when we go crusading." She smile taking a bite of the floating cookie in front of her.

"So where is the jungle gym in the park? I wasn't aware there was one." Midnight asked.

"It's not far. It's pretty close to the main path through the park, I'm surprised you never saw it." Sweetie smiled.

"I haven't been through the park all that much, and when I do take a walk I usually just daydream, so I usually don't take in my surroundings." He laughed causing Sweetiebelle to giggle.

"I'm like that when Rarity starts lecturing me about fashion. It's SOooooooooooo Boring." She giggled as they arrived at the playground. A few other fillies and colts were running around having fun. Some chasing one another while a few others just played on the jungle gym.

"Hey Sweetie, I don't want to cause others to stare at me since I'm an Alicorn, so I'm going to make my horn Invisible alright?"

Sweetiebelle nodded watching Midnight cast a spell which quickly turned his horn invisible.

"Wow, Now you look like a Pegasus. That is so cool." She squeaked.

"Well, Let's go play, He smiled as Sweetiebelle led the way.

After playing for almost an hour they decided to take a rest and have another cookie. Sweetiebelle pulled the bag from her saddlebags as the two sat under a tree next to the playground.

"That was fun, I haven't played like that since I was a kid years ago." Midnight giggled to himself wiping away some sweat from his brow.

"Yea? Scoots, and Applebloom are always playing with me like we did today. When we go crusading it's usually a LOT more fun than this." Sweetie giggled.

"Boy, Running around like this has gotten me pretty thirsty. Is there a place were we can get a drink?" Midnight asked causing Sweetie to point to a vending machine next to a set of restrooms.

"I'll go get us a couple lemonades, is that ok?" He asked causing Sweetie to nod while taking another bite of a cookie.

Midnight smiled trotting over to the vending machines. After a couple minutes of fussing with his bits in the machine he finally received two lemonades, trotting back toward Sweetiebelle. Upon arriving however he noticed two other fillies he had not seen before in front of Sweetiebelle, One was a a Pink earth pony with a soft purple and white mane, a tiara adorning her head, the other was a light grey earth pony with a white and off white but not quite grey mane, A pair of blue glasses rested on her face. The pink one had an evil looking smile across her face while the other just laughed. As Midnight got closer he could see Sweetiebelle crying. He came up to her side looking at the two fillies who cocked an eyebrow at him with a questioning look.

"Is everything ok Sweetie?" Midnight asked raising his own brow to the other fillies.

"Oh everything is perfectly fine, isn't that right Sweetiebelle." The little pink earth pony sneered causing Sweetie to recoil slightly.

"Y-yeah..................." Sweetie started but then looked at Midnight, her face turning from sad to determined as she stood up. "No it's not!" She shouted standing up looking at the two fillies that were taken aback by the sudden outburst.

"What did you say blank flank!?" The pink earth pony growled back stepping forward.

"I've had enough Diamond Tiara, I'm not going to sit by and let you and Silver Spoon bully me, Scootaloo, and Applebloom anymore!" Sweeitebelle's voice cracked from not only the hatred she was voicing but from the fear of fighting them as well.

"Oh really? So what are you going to do? Send your coltfriend there after me?" She spouted, a hint of venom in her voice causing Silverspoon to giggle.

Sweetiebelle blushed recoiling slightly looking at Midnight.

"Nope, I think Sweetiebelle could take you both without even trying." Midnight smirked giving a wink to Sweetiebelle walking over to her. He leaned close and whispered quietly into her ear. "Act like your using magic and I'll do the rest."

Sweetie smiled and gave a nod her horn glowing softly as if ready to attack.

"I can fight my own battles you bully!" Sweetiebelle growled.

Diamond Tiara gave an evil sneer scraping the ground with one of her fore hooves. "Oh you are SO going to regret this decision blank flank!" She growled charging Sweetiebelle.

"STOP CALLING ME BLANK FLANK!" Sweetiebelle yelled as Diamond Tiara was suddenly lifted off the ground in a magical field. She let out a scream as she was hoisted about ten feet from the ground. Silver spoon gasped seeing this and charged toward Sweetie as well only to be lifted off the ground as well in the magical field.

"You two are NEVER going to pick on ANYPONY. EVER! AGAIN! IS! THAT! CLEAR!?" Sweetiebelle shouted causing the two screaming fillies to be shaken hard in the air at the shout of each word she spoke.

The two fillies screamed but stopped as there faces began to turn a slight green from the shaking. They were set on the ground swaying dizzily about. Diamond Tiara spoke as she felt herself about to lurch.

"I'm sorry, we won't ever be mean to you again. Please let us go." She cried backing up slowly, low to the ground dragging Silver spoon with her.

"Not just yet. I don't think you've learned your lesson. So I'm going to turn both of your coats and manes green for the next week, just as a reminder to never pick on any other pony again." Sweetie smirked giving a wink to Midnight. Sweetie lowered her horn letting it glow, The two fillies screamed as they began to run away but a bright flash erupted from them as their coats and manes were now green. Their manes an off color green from their coats. They gasped looking at each other then snapped their attention back to Sweetiebelle who began running forward. The two fillies screamed in terror running away. Sweetiebelle gave a snort scraping the ground as cheers erupted from all around. Many fillies and colts were all stamping the ground and cheering for Sweetiebelle. Many coming up to her and congratulating her for standing up to the bullies that had plagued the entire playgrounds occupants for a long time.

After a short while Sweetie came back up to Midnight sitting on the ground beside him. He pulled out a cookie and the lemonade he had just got moving them to in front of her.

"That was really brave Sweetie, I'm proud of you for standing up for yourself." He smiled giving her a playful nudge.

"No Uncle Midnight, You did all the work, I just screamed at them." She looked down in shame. Midnight was taken aback by this but smiled.

"Actually Sweetie, I didn't do anything. I was about to when I saw Diamond suddenly spring into the air without my help. Then the other little filly too. I have to admit, your magical ability is VERY strong for your age. I guess it's easier to say this. I'd better not make you mad anytime soon or in the future, Or I might just end up on a rollercoaster like you put those two through." He laughed causing Sweetiebelle to gawk.

"You really didn't help me out? Seriously?!" Sweetie cracked

"It was all you Sweetheart. Had that one gotten any closer I would have done the same thing you did. But you just showed me up." He laughed again.

They shared a laugh sitting there enjoying their drinks and cookies. It was getting later on in the evening so they headed back home. Upon arriving Midnight changed back into his form after entering the boutique. Sweetiebelle gave him a hug thanking him for the fun day they had and for helping her stand up against those bullies. She gave a yawn as she headed upstairs. Rarity walked up to Midnights side giving him a loving nuzzle.

"I overheard you two talking dear, Thank you for helping my little sister." She smiled looking up to him.

"It's no problem hun, Those two were asking for it. I'm just glad I didn't have to use my magic to stop them. I had actually planned on turning them into a couple pigs, and was about to when I watched them get lifted off the ground. I couldn't help but laugh seeing how made Sweetie was. She is a little firecracker." He chuckled.

"Let's get to bed darling. It's getting late and tomorrow the girls and I are going on a picnic. I would love it if you could join us." Rarity smiled giving him a gentle kiss.

"Alright, Lets get some sleep."

Rarity and Midnight climber the stairs to head to bed, another adventure passed and another to wait tomorrow.
