Tales From the Trash Bin 15. Replacing Royalty · 2:22pm Mar 5th, 2021
Hey there, welcome to another post of Tales From The Trash Bin. I usually try to post ideas for stories I had every Friday and place them up for adoption. If you want this or any of the other stories that haven't been adopted yet, PM me and they could be yours! Hope you have a wonderful day, stay safe!
Yup, That’s Celestia.
Chrysalis might have failed to convince Twilight that she was Cadence, but she was still able to convince most of Canterlot that she was the real deal. What if another villain decided to impersonate Celestia. Would anypony be able to see through their wicked rouse?
You Cheeky Rat!
The Princess of the Night, the purveyor of dreams and protector of the innocent who trot too close to the dangerous shadows that lurk inn the moonlight, illuminated her horn and dragged the sun over the horizon for the fourth day in a row.
Mornings were possibly the worst thing to ever exist.
While many ponies across Equestria would agree with Princess Luna, at least she liked to believe that, that idle thought carried a whole slew of implications when the one that was usually responsible for the monster that was morning was her own sister. The task of bringing daylight to the world was not one Luna envied. While she could find pleasure in basking in the praise of their ponies for providing them with sunlight, she absolutely detested the task of pulling the heavy inferno from the other side of the planet.
Luna’s only tasks were to handle night court, raise and lower the moon, decorate the night sky, and alleviate ponies of their dreadful nightmares. However, without any warning, her sister suddenly decided that it was Luna’s responsibility to raise both the celestial bodies.
“Don’t see why it’s my job, I don’t have a big bucking fire on my flank, do I?” She irritably muttered as she trotted away from her room’s balcony to confront her sister. Luna had no idea why Celestia had been so keen on throwing her responsibilities onto her, and she was quite frankly too tired to care at the moment. All she wanted was to sleep, maybe take a bath, and never wake up. Maybe in that order. Falling asleep in a bathtub did have its benefits after all. For one, she’d never need to take a bath again, so that was a definite plus
Trotting past the many guards and maids who sluggishly changed shifts with the ever vigilant, (and more impressive) night staff, Luna entered the Throne room where Celestia had been for… Oddly enough, four straight days. On one wing, it was nice that her sister was dealing with Nobility full time, but Luna was a little worried that her sister was over working herself.
“Sister, I see thou art awake,” As you have been for the past three nights.
“Ah, L-l-Luna! g-Good morning,” Her sister greeted as her head slightly shook in a peculiar way. Luna wasn’t sure if it was the puffs of steams that occasionally puffed from the joints of Celestia’s legs, or the way a spark of electricity would occasionally fly from her ears, but something seemed off about her sister.
“Good morning to thee as well. Celestia, I’ve come to seek the reason why you haven’t raised the sun and why you haven’t moved from your throne.”
“…. I-I’m too fat to raise the sun,” Celestia reasoned with a slight stutter.
“… …Beg pardon?”
“I-I-I love cake, and I’m too fat to get off the-off the-off the throne right now. But I know you-you can do it, because you’re fit, beautiful, wonderful, amazing, great, great, great, great, great, great—“
“P-please, Tia, you’re making me blush,” Luna half-heartedly begged as her sister went on to sing her praises. Her sister’s head was slow cranking to the right with each word, before locking and springing back forward.
“—Great, great, great, great, great, gr... I love cake,“ she finished.
“Yes, I know that well, sister, though you could do with less cake from now on. I’m glad you’ve accepted your… growing posterior, but you must get off that throne and exercise.”
“… You’re great!”
“Thank you,” Luna said with a nod of her head. “Well, sister, just make sure to get some rest and—“
Luna’s words were interrupted by an explosion of magic as the royal doors to the throne room were torn off of their hinges, scattering specs of gold and wood across the floor as a wall of smoke rose from the remains.
The dark alicorn watched as a haggard version of her sister dragged herself into the throne room, wincing in pain under the pressure of her hind leg as she trotted through the new hole. She breathed heavily as she glared at the reflection that sat on the throne, summoning forth a burst of magic that Luna blocked with a shield spell.
"HOW DARE THEE ATTACK US!" Luna roared with anger.
"What? Luna, that's an imposter!" The tired Celestia argued as Luna glanced back at her sister. Her sisters usual cold and unwavering gaze looked back at her, not revealing a trace of her emotions behind the glass eyes that surveyed the situation.
“hmmmm… You might be ri—“
“I-I-I love cake and stuffing my face w-with cake-cake-cake,” the throned Celestia interrupted. “I-I loooove c-cake and being a pretty-pretty-pretty-preety-pret-Princess.”
“Oh, never mind, she’s clearly the real Celestia,” Luna reasoned with ease before turning back to the invader. "I don't know what you hope to accomplish here, Chrysalis, but thou shall not deceive me like thy did during my niece's wedding!"
"Luna, I'm the real Celestia!" The faker shouted back.
"Hmph. Then say something only my sister would, Celestia," Luna reasoned. She didn't know what scheme the changeling was hatching, but she was curious enough to see how long the bug's ruse would last for.
“I-I loooove c-cake and being a pretty-pretty-pretty-preety-pret-Princess.”
…
“I-i’m-I’m Celestia, and I-I’m Celestia,”
“Curses, those are both things my sister would say,” Luna reasoned with a bite of venom.
…
“I th-think we should pass a law for night to last an hour longer,” her sister stated.
“Guards! Apprehend that changeling!” Luna ordered, as a battalion of pegasi and thestrals descended from the rafters to swarm the haggard Celestia.
….
A fat rat wearing a rather luxurious tuxedo and top hat.
“Drats! You may have foiled my plans Celestia, but be warned! Sir Ratigan shall strike again!” The rodent threatened as he scampered off into one of the many mice holes that the fake Celestia contracted.
