Button Mash sighed as he walked through the slightly crowded hall of his school. He had been checked out of the hospital earlier that morning with a clean bill of health. He weaved through the bodies of his class mates, making his way to his home room.
What the heck happened to me yesterday? Was any of that real? He thought to himself as he opened the door to his classroom.
"Hey Button! I heard you rode in an ambulance yesterday." One of his classmates teased, but Button was to lost in thought to raise to the bait
"Huh?... Oh, yeah." He said blandly and walked to his desk. as soon as he sat down there was a shadow to his left and he turned and saw a happy and concerned Sweetie belle next to him.
"Button! Are you feeling better? What happened to you yesterday?" She peppered him with questions making him raise his palm in a placating gesture,
"Easy there Sweetie... I'm not really sure what happened." he said trying his best to explain.
"When I woke up it was already morning." He said. Sweetie was about to ask another question but the bell rand and they all quickly got to their desks.
"It was a normal, boring day of school for Button, and it only got worse when Ms, Cheerilee gave them an impromptu history test. Button groaned in despair as he took a page from the pile, placed it face down on his desk and passed the stack back to the student behind him
"All right then... Begin." His teacher said and he heard the flipping of paper. Giving a defeated sigh he flipped his page over and started to read the questions.
OH! A history test! she said, obviously curious. Button's head jerked up and looked around seeing nobody around him he jumped to his feet shouting.
"You again!" He yelled in panic drawing all eyes to him and making him sweat nervously.
"Is everything alright?" Cheerilee asked him, he tried to come up with something but he couldn't.
"I... uh... just... yeah... sorry" His eyes staring at the floor in embarrassment. a few snickers could be heard in the class room. Cheerilee just shook her head.
"Then please sit down and continue with the test Button."
"Yes ma'am." He said quickly taking his seat and glancing over at Sweetie Belle and saw she was giving him a worried look. He smiled sheepishly and gave a small wave. He turned his head back to the test but his mind was else where.
So... yesterday wasn't a dream after all. Button thought to himself
"Twas no dream." Her voice quite chipper.
sorry, what was your name again? He asked. He heard her huff slightly.
"My name's Luna." She said. Button was to distracted by his mental conversation he didn't notice the clock ticking away and that he hadn't written a single letter on his test.
You really like GO don't ya? Button asked, a small plan forming in his mind.
"Oh Yes!" Luna said happily. button smirked evilly.
And you really want to play GO don't ya? Luna was obviously excited.
"YES!" She said loudly and happily. 
To bad... I don't think I'm ever gonna play the game. Button smirk evil smirk grew. this was a little pay back for making him faint the day before. He felt an intense feeling of despair and he heard Luna cry out.
"MY AFTERLIFE IS RUINED!" She wailed and sobbed. Button felt his stomach start doing somersaults and his breakfast decided it didn't like being in his stomach. He clutched his mouth and bolted from the classroom hoping to make it to the bathroom in time. He didn't. luckily there was a open window so he didn't spew his guts all over the floor.
After a few heaves his stomach emptied and he was trying to catch his breath. Wiping spit off his mouth he turned around and snarled at the air.
"What did you do to me?" He asked angrily, not noticing his teacher and Sweetie Belle close by making their way over to him.
"I didn't do anything!" Luna said, panicking slightly from Buttons hostility. Button slumped against the wall and slid to the floor. He heard footsteps quickly making their way toward him.
"Button are you okay?" Sweetie asked as she knelt next to him. Cheerilee knelt next to her.
"I'm worried about you Button, do you want to see the nurse?" She asked. Button shook his head slowly no.
"I think I'm okay now... must've been some thing from breakfast that didn't agree with me." he said slowly getting to his feet with Sweetie's help.
You must have felt my intense sorrow a the thought of not being able to play GO again." Luna said as Button made his way back to class with his teacher and Sweetie.
Man... a thousand years of disappointment is hard on the stomach He thought as he walked back into class and took his seat.
couldn't you... you know... go bother some one else? Button asked nervously. Luna sighed sadly.
"Most likely not." she said and Button grumbled. Luna's shoulder slumped at the thought of not playing GO again. Button looked at her standing pitifully next to him and just sighed.
I guess... it' wouldn't hurt to play every once and a while." he said, trying to make it seem like he wasn't being a good guy. A look of surprise then happiness flashed onto Luna's face, but Button had a few rules.
But my head is my own... and don't talk to me unless I talk to you first, agreed? he asked, Luna's eyes sparkled with joy.
"Agreed." She said happily. and for the next twenty minutes she was silent as she stood just behind Button.
Button was sure he had answered most of the questions correctly but there were still some left that he couldn't figure out.
"Damn it." He mumbled.
"What was that guys name... I can remember." His mumbling caught the attention of Luna and she crouched next to his desk, her hands on top, looking slightly like a cat.
"Ten more minutes." Ms. Cheerilee announced, making Button's mind start to panic. He hung his head in defeat,
"I can't remember." he whined. turning he saw Luna looking at him over the edge of his desk in concern and an idea sparked.
worth a shot he thought.
hey, Luna, you know anything about the Allied reform? he asked. Luna tapped her chin.
"Allied reform... you mean the one started by Starswirl the Bearded?" She asked, jogging Buttons memory and he quickly wrote down the name.
"Yeah, that's the guy!" He said excitedly. Luna looked quite pleased with her self.
"I remember him well. He had an odd obsession with hats. I played a game of GO with him at the castle once, it was a fascinating g..."
"Yeah yeah, that's enough." Button said cutting her off as he finished writing the name down.
"You know anything about Preen?" he asked, Luna coked her head in confusion.
"Preen?" She asked, button huffed in annoyance.
"Preen, the one with the black ships and stuff." He said making Luna smile in recognition.
"Oh! you mean Commodore Preen of the Griffonian empire." She stated happily and Button nodded his head.
"That's the one, which bay did he sail into?" he asked and Luna cocked her head as she thought.
"Dragon tooth bay, he certainly caused an up roar." Luna said a look of nostalgia on her face,
"Dragon tooth." Button said as he wrote it down.
"Hey Luna?"
"Yes?"
"You can be pretty useful some times."
"What are you mumbling to yourself about?" Cheerilee's voice asked from next to him making him start a little.
"Are you finished?" She asked, Button shook his head.
"Not yet but almost." He said smiling at her. She smiled back.
"Well keep at it." She said and walked to the front of the room... right through Luna. Button was shocked for a second, then he remembered Luna was a spirit and others couldn't see her. luna's cheek puffed out in annoyance.
"How rude! Your teacher just walked right through me with out so much as an excuse me or I beg you pardon." Luna complained. The look on her face and the whole situation made Button snicker to himself in amusement. 
"Button Mash! There seems to be a lack of etiquette in this modern world of yours." She said glaring slightly at his teacher. Button sighed.
"Yeah, yeah, just stop making such a racket in my head. Once I'm done here I'll take you some place were you can play GO okay?" Button said and returned his focus to his test.
