The Guardian

Dreams 2: The Dreamening

The Guardian arrived at the castle late at night. It checked that the two princesses were fine, then went to sleep in the guest room. It went to the bed and fell asleep. More dreams.

...

It awoke some time later. The sun was just coming up. It looked outside and what It saw was terrifying. The crystals were in plain view and coming from everywhere. The creatures were everywhere, climbing the palace and swarming below. Giant towering beasts made of corrupton lumbered in the distance. It rushed into Celestia's room and saw the Horror. And it saw the Guardian.

Then It woke up.

It looked outside annd saw a clear day. No creatures swarming the castle, no dark creature in celestia's room. It left and went outside. It just started walking, it didn't know where, it just went. It kept going until It arrived somewhere familiar. The train station. Why did it keep arriving here. No matter where it needed to go, It always arrived here. Something knocked into It.

"Oops, sorry," said a familiar voice. It turned around relieved. Stone Blossom stood there. But for some reason It felt it needed to run. To get away as fast as possible. Her suitcase sat next to her. She opened It and It emmited a blinding light. The Guardian felt like It was being burned out of all existenece.

Then It woke up.

"We need to collect more crystals," said the Voice. "More creatures are coming and we have to be ready."

Okay, thought the Guardian.

"Don't worry the dreams will get better."

Where is the next crystal.

"In the city actually. We should get there before anypony else arrives"

It looked outside. Too late, It thought. A crowd had gathered near the palace. Next Chapter: But what of the Bug Estimated time remaining: 14 Minutes
