"UGH! This form is causing me so many problems." Twilight groaned rubbing her temples as she tried to disperse the on setting headache she was getting from scanning books.

"Why don't you just take a breather. Ever since Midnight taught you that spell you've been scanning books left and right. If you had set down to read all of the ones you've already scanned, it would have taken you a couple months to finish them just from reading. So in essence you are two months ahead of schedule in your studies. Come on Twilight, take a break." Spike sighed as he continued placing books onto the shelves.

Twilight looked around her at all of the books that had accumulated over the past week. Spike was right however. Since learning that new spell she has been scanning a multitude of books to learn everything she can. This and the fact Luna had turned her into a filly just kept pressing the point. Take a vacation and relax.

"Alright Spike." Twilight smiled.

"Huh?" He asked looking slightly shocked.

"You're right, I should take a break. Being in this form isn't helping me at all and I am pretty far ahead in my studies. From this moment forward until I return to my normal size, I am hereby on vacation." She smiled as she got up and heading toward the door to make a quick exit.

"Yes!" Spike cheered pumping his little fist into the air but stopped as Twilight poked her head back inside.

"You still have to clean and organize though. But once you're done you can take a break as well." She smiled then left.

"Hey, I'll take what I can get, when I can get it." He chuckled as he began quickly picking up around the library.

Twilight left the library and began heading through town. Although she was now in the form of a filly, that did not negate her from doing some of the things she wanted to do. Like stopping at the local diner to grab a bite to eat, then finish it off with a large ice cream Sunday. Next she went to visit Pinkie at Sugar Cube Corner. Upon entering the shop though, she was swept up by Pinkie who just kept hugging her and telling her how cute she was. After several attempts to get the pink ball of energy to release her she had to teleport to safety.

After a short time walking around, Twilight found herself getting more and more bored. "I wonder what Midnight is up to?" She asked herself, heading toward the Boutique.

"Midnight darling. Would you be a dear and help me out with this dress?" Rarity asked as she floated it from the mannequin.

"Yea, let me just get into the right form." He sighed as his horn lit up. His body began to shift slowly to the size it needed to be for the dress but stopped. Quickly reverting back to his colt form. "What the hell?" He snorted as he tried again only to revert once again. "You have got to be kidding me!? I can't use transformation magic while in reversion?" He snapped trying once again but failing.

"Nevermind." Rarity sighed as she placed the dress back onto the mannequin she had removed it from. "I guess this order will have to be done the old fashioned way."

Midnight gave a sigh of relief as he watched the dress floating back onto the oversized doll.

*ring*

"Coooooomiiiiiiing." Rarity sang as she pranced toward the door of the shop, but stopped as she noticed the young purple filly unicorn.

"Twilight? What brings you here?" She asked as Twilight trotted over to her.

"Well I was wondering if I could borrow Night for a bit." She smiled seeing his eyes light up.

"Yes, please, by all means." Rarity smirked using her magic to float the Alicorn to her side.

"Say what?" Midnight asked in confusion.

"You have done nothing but groan all morning about helping me with these dresses. Go with Twilight and have some fun, take your mind off of things so when you return you will be fresh and ready to help me." Rarity giggled as she trotted back to her sewing machine.

"I am never going to understand that pony." Midnight chuckled causing Twilight to giggle as well.

"I'm still trying to and I've known her for years." She smiled.

"Well, at least it's never boring. She always has something up her sleeve for me to do." He chuckled as they headed out the door. "So what's up? I figured you would be studying right now."

"Well I normally would be, but since reverting back to this form I can't scan as many books as I could before. That plus Spike made me realize I was two months ahead of schedule for studying. So I gave him time off until I returned to normal." She sighed.

"That was nice of you. I know that poor little dragon needs a good vacation to do what he wants. You need to sit back and relax to. All that studying is going to fry your brain." Midnight smirked as he crossed his eyes and stuck his tongue out causing her to giggle.

"That's why I came by to get you. I have plenty of free time to do what I want and thought it'd be nice if we went out to a show or anything really." She spoke waving a hoof in the air.

"Well, how about we take in a movie. I haven't had the chance to see what kind of movies this world has to offer and I've only been here for what, maybe six months now?" He smiled.

"Well, there aren't any theaters in Ponyville. The closest one would be Canterlot. Think you can teleport us there?" Twilight grinned.

"You bet. Hang on!" He chuckled grabbing a hold of Twilight as his horn lit up. *VORP*

*SNAP*

The two children reappeared in Canterlot, blinking a few times to clear the fog. They looked around for a moment to see where they had arrived at.

"Hmmmm. The Theater should be a couple streets down. We can make better time by heading down that side street." Twilight smiled as she led the way. The two entering the ally and walking a short distance before they heard something scraping the ground behind them.

"Well well well, what do we have here?" A sinister voice came from behind them. Midnight spun around to see a large earth pony dressed in some ragged clothing. a torn bowler hat set atop his head.

"I think we caught us a couple foals boss." Another voice echoed through the ally as another earth pony stepped from the shadows at the other end of the ally.

"Midnight........." Twilight spoke quietly pressing against him.

"Can I help you gentleponies?" Midnight inquired speaking loud enough for them both to hear.

"How about that. This little fella thinks we be a couple gentleponies boss."

"But we are my friend." The big earth pony took a sweeping bow removing his hat and letting it sway along with his hoof in front of him. "We be a couple fine gentleponies." He smirked pulling the lid from a trashcan and picking out a few items from within placing them onto the lid and pressing it toward the to children before them.

"Care for some h'orderves?" The bigger earth pony chuckled dropping the lid in front of them.

"Not really that hungry, but thanks for the offer." Midnight smiled.

"Awwww e'ain't ungry boss." The other pony frowned taking a seat onto the ground and giving the side of his head a scratch.

"That's ok. I'm sure they'll get hungry after a while. You got the sack?" He spoke out to his counterpart on the other side of the children.

"Right'ere." He snickered opening the burlap sack and heading toward the children.

"Miiiiidniiiiiight." Twilight nudged the Alicorn as the two ponies got closer.

"So what's the big deal guys? Going to try and ponynap us?" Midnight smirked.

"This colt is a smart one he is." The apparent boss said with a chuckle.

"At's right, we gonna catch ya and ransom ya off ta ya parent's. Being a foal and taking an ally is always good business for'us. He drolled out. "Now be a good l'ittle fella and hope into this bag eh. We don't like roughing up the youngins."

"Oh but roughing up dirtbag creeps is what I like to do." Midnight laughed as his horn lit up.

"Looky here, this'n knows'ow ta use magic. Bet it ain't much though." The boss laughed but stopped as his cohort and himself were suddenly lifted from the ground.

"Now now, what shall I do with these two very nasty creeps who like to kidnap young ponies." Midnight chuckled looking to Twilight who just hugged him.

"Hey! How can your magic be so strong and you be so l'ittle?" The boss shouted out.

"I'm an Alicorn for one, and I just have a reversion spell cast on me by Princess Luna. I shrank because of that. My original form is bigger than Celestia herself." He laughed causing the two creeps to facehoof.

"Midnight, let's take them to some guards. They can handle them." Twilight smiled nuzzling his neck.

"Dang, and I was hoping to maybe turn them into a couple rats or send them to the moon." He laughed looking up to their shocked faces.

"No need for that now, jes take us to the guards. Or you could be nice and release us." The boss chuckled nervously.

"Nah, I think I'll turn you two into a couple bales of hay then toss you into the storage room of a bakery." Midnight chuckled eliciting a gasp from not only the creeps, but Twilight as well.

"Midnight!" Twilight spoke out in shock.

"Wait. Did you just say Midnight?" The lackey spoke up.

"Yes, that would be my name." Midnight spoke up causing the lackey to laugh loudly.

"Boss, you done screwed up. This fella 'ere took out that shadow thing a while back. Even Celestia and her l'ittle sis couldn't do that." He continued laughing causing the boss to sigh.

"Alright fine, ah made a mistake. So what are ya gonna do? Kill us? Or take us to the guard?"

Midnight smiled evilly as his horn ignited.

"Night, Do you really think what you did will be enough?" Twilight asked looking back at the two idiots from the Ally.

"Yea, at least this way ponies will know to avoid that ally." He chuckled, taking a look back to see his work.

At the end of the ally on both sides stood each of the creeps that had tried to pony nap them. Their clothing had been mended and washed. Their bodies had been clean and dyed a bright neon orange and pink stripped. A large sign had been placed above them in blinking lights saying. "I pony nap children and ransom them back to their parent's, I didn't get away with it this time. This ally is my place of hiding so please keep your foals at home and away from here."

The two idiots had been frozen into a silly pose while holding the signs up above their head. The spell cast on them would take a week to wear off unless a Unicorn guard took them to jail, in which case it would break then. Since they would be frozen in the pose they were in, no food or water would be needed to keep them alive. The spell would do that.

"I still can't believe you did that." Twilight giggled.

"They deserved much worse. That is one thing I cannot stand. A kidnapper in my opinion deserves a fate worse than death." Midnight growled causing Twilight to slink away slightly.

"But no worries, They will learn their lesson. Even if I have to visit Canterlot more often to do this again. He chuckled.

"What do you mean a fate worse than death?" Twilight asked nervously.

"I'm sorry Twi, I shouldn't have said that. It's just that I have known several families that had their child taken from them. One managed to get their child back after three years, the other couple wasn't so lucky. I'll be honest with you Twi. Had I been alone and in that ally, I would have taken their lives." He sighed seeing Twilight gulp.

"W-would you do that to anypony?" She asked nervously again.

"No, only to those who would harm a child or try to take them away from their parents in order to get a ransom or to do other things to them. I'm not cold blooded Twi. But I do believe in swift punishment to creeps such as them."

Twilight gave a sigh of relief. "Although I don't agree on taking a life unless need be. I understand what you are trying to say."

"Well, take this into consideration. We left those jerks frozen for a week. If the guard doesn't pick them up and jail them then they will be free to do this again. If they manage to do this again then the child that gets caught will endure a lot of suffering, as well as their parents. If things do not go smoothly then the child or children could die in the process, leaving the creeps to do it again later and leaving a family heartbroken. All I did was delay the inevitable." He sighed but stopped noticing the lack of a purple unicorn at his side. He turned his gaze to see her crying a few steps back. He turned heading back to her giving her a gentle nuzzle.

"Are you alright Twi?" He asked raising her gaze to meet his.

"A-as much as I dislike the thought of taking a ponies life. You are right. You only delayed the inevitable. Midnight, you may do what you feel is right." She cried softly as Midnight wrapped his hooves around her.

"The theater is right there. Go ahead and get us a couple tickets. I'll make this quick." He sighed trotting back to the ally.

After ten minutes had passed Midnight returned to the theater, Twilight staring at him with wide eyes as he got near.

"I didn't kill them. I teleported them and myself to Celestia and told her what happened. She said that she would jail them indefinitely. So don't mmmmmMMMPH!"

Twilight had wrapped her hooves around Midnights neck giving him a tender kiss. He pulled back after a few moments looking at her in slight shock. Twilight giggled giving a slight blush.

"Come on now. Just because we are kids right now doesn't mean we can't at least kiss. We will return to our normal sizes in a few days." She smiled giving him another quick kiss.

"I know, it just feels odd is all. Knowing that in your mind you are an adult as well as I. But our bodies are that of children. I would like to avoid doing anything as I am now so that I won't end up thinking like a pedophile." He sighed lowering his head.

"I understand. So if you want to wait to do anything that is fine with me." Twilight smiled but gasped softly as Midnight leaned over giving her a quick kiss.

"I guess a few kisses wouldn't hurt." He smiled causing her to blush as they trotted into the theater leaning onto each other.
