Chapter 1: Sleepy Mornings

Load Full Story Next Chapter

It was beginning to dawn in Equestria and beyond.

On the side of a mountain, was Canterlot and its brilliant castle. It stood proudly as it was, the capital of Equestria. On the left of the castle, was the Lunar Wing.

A tall, elegant figure of a alicorn mare walked onto a balcony.

It was the Princess Of The Night.

Princess Luna stood on the balcony as she lowered her moon. Her horn glowed musky blue as each and every star disappeared.

Her midnight blue hair flowed as it sparkled like her stars. Wings spread apart and eyes closed.

The sound of hooves gently approached Luna.

A bright light began to rise from the east. Oranges, pinks and light blues mixed with night sky. It was now morning.

"Luna? I have to-"

"Yes, I know Tia. You have to go to Germaney." Luna moaned.

Celestia giggled. "You sound like a silly filly. I will be leaving in a moment and I won't be back till tomorrow night. I will still raise the sun. I've written down some rules for while I'm gone. Don't try to mess up the castle. No wild parties. N-"

"Urg. You just don't know when to stop. Why can't I have fun? It's not like I'm freeing Discord!" Luna huffed.

"I know. Just be safe. Besides, if you're bored read a book. There's loads in the library!" Celestia walked into her room and picked up her suitcases.

"I'm just gonna sleep!" Luna jumped onto the bed.

"Not for two full days, you're not! I will see you soon, little sister."

"I'll miss you Tia. Bye!" A blue hoof emerged from the bed covers and waved.

"Bye. Oh yea! Don't try to cook again! It was a week before we got the burnt butterscotch off the ceiling!"

Luna snorted. "Yes mother!" She said sarcastically.

The door closed with a click.

Luna ruffled about in the bed until she was comfortable.

"Hmmm. This is," *yawn*, "perfe-" Luna's sentence didn't end, as her eyelids drooped shut. Her wings spread around her body like a second blanket, and her mane flowing onto her face.

This princess wasn't going to wake up for no-pony!


The heat of the sun touched Luna. The rays shone through the windows and open curtains.

It was now noon. And the beaming sun, looked like a giant, gold jewel. White clouds drifted past, and the occasional rainbow streak zoomed around.

And Luna started to stir awake to the sound of ponies downstairs.

Clashes and yelling and whistling and humming.... the list would go on forever!

She fluttered her wings before opening her eyes.

She slowly raised her head and stretched her fore legs. She whipped her hair off her face and sat up. A brush was what she needed. As she sat up, her stomach rumbled.

A sweet smell of sugary baked goods, from the castle kitchen, drifted past her nose.

Cinnamon rolls, Crossaints, Ginger snaps, Lemon butter cupcakes, Fruit cake, The works!

She rolled out of bed, where she was met by a silver tray on the table.

A little tea pot, with steam flowing out of its spout, smelt of her favourite tea. Dandelion and apple. A little blue cup on the side, and a plate of ginger snaps and a blueberry muffin. A little note was also placed on the tray.

Luna,

I hope you had a restful sleep. Here's a spot of lunch along with a little treat. I knew you were going to be hungry when get up.
See you soon,
Your loving sister, Celestia.

Luna smirked at the note.

She levitated the tea pot and poured her self a nice cuppa. She instantly scoffed the ginger snaps and the muffin. Crumbs spread all through her hair. She didn't care. She can deal with it later.

But now, it's time for some r&r.

Luna sipped the last few drops of her tea, before placing the cup down.

She hovered a brush over and attacked her hair. She also had some hair spray (offered by Rarity) and used that.

She stroked her feathers so they would be neat again. Perfect.

Her mane was flowing and shiny, and her wings shimmered.

She placed her necklace and then crown on. She slipped into her shoes.

She was ready.

But ready....for what?

"Ummmm. I could! No. What about? Nope." Luna was drained of ideas.

"if you're bored read a book. There's loads in the library!"

The library?! Really?!

Did she really think that she was going to the library?!

However, new books have been made over the last thousand years. Maybe there could be some good books. But anything with Starswirl the bearded, and she was out of there.

Yes, she like the spells and some of the lessons, but he was an old grumpy grouch. And his books were so very boring. Obviously, not for Celestia's student, Twilight Sparkle.

An idea sparked.

Starswirl was a prankster. And a pretty good one.

She remembered him teaching her how to change the colour of an object.

It turns out it works on ponies too.

She giggled. Celestia did not look good blue.

And the foal spell! She accidentally turned her mother into a filly. She looked so cute. But Starswirl wasn't happy. Neither was her farther. Mother loved it, thought. She said it showed skill in a young foal.

Maybe if she goes looking the spell book, she could prank the cook, her guards, even Shining Armour.

Yeah! She was in the mood for mischief!

Well, one must have fun! Especially if it means no big sister.

Even better!

With Celestia gone, she was in charge. No pony can tell her off.

For once, she was going to be dominant.

An evil grin grew on her face, and she rubbed her hooves together.

She was going to love these two days!

"I'm going to love these two days!" She yelled.

She got up and trotted to the door. She was about to leave when she looked back.

Bed covers ruffled and turned over. A teapot on the floor was surrounded by tea, and crumbs coated the floor.

Pranks can wait. She needed to tidy up.

What?! She does have standards!
