At the breakfast table where thirteen pancakes was strangely stacked in front of sister, who possessed this evil smile about her as she devoured them. Celestia was thinking of the day ahead and the test, she collected herself before asking her counterpart in life.
Celestia batted her eyelash's "Dear sister may we use the honey joke spell for the test."
Luna choked on her seventh pancake " Urgh the honey joke sister are you sure, nay never mind you wouldn't ask if you weren't."
The bed and breakfast they occupied was very comfortable for a small village known as Ponyville. The interior consisted of basic large oak table with five chair's that the two sisters were using. A blue mare with unusual pink hair approached the table and placed two cups of tea upon the table.
"How are you enjoy the stay dear guest's" the blue mare asked.
"Cozy is the word that comes to mind Mrs. Cake quite pleasant." Luna responded along with nod of her sister.
Celestia levitate's the cup of tea to her lips and smile's " Peach tea what a delight my dear."
Mrs. Cake a tinge of red grace's the cheeks of the blue mare, who nod's at the white unicorn with the tilt of her head.
"If nothing else my dear guest's I shall prepare for the morning, please enjoy our tea of the day." with a twinkle in her eye she smiled while walking away.
Luna looked at her sister for hard long minute before she began sighing. Celestia held a small but mischievous smile upon her lips only grew bigger the longer her sister stared. The sigh was only shatter the silence with nearly polite laughter that only grew as the other joined in.
"I shall fetch some of the ingredients from the nearby forest sister." Luna spoke with a sense of defeat in her voice.
"Excellent Luna I shall begin preparing the necessary preparations for the test." Celestia spoke as she continued to sip her tea.
The morning ritual between the sisters had concluded, Luna rubbed her belly generously before giving her sister a hug. Celestia leaned into the hug squeezing her sister till a soft squee escaped her mouth. Chuckling was heard from the denizens below them as they there checking in. Luna left the room on her mission to gather the ingredients that would later combine with the test spell to challenge their possible new students.
Celestia spoke to herself in a hush of whisper "This will be a good day, please Harmony let this day stay true." The solar magus left the room filling herself with magic to prepare the spell of the day. Celestia left the All your treats bed and breakfast, while hatching a plan for the test. Unknown to her she was being watched by a old enemy who desired what she possessed.
The world smelled of sweet flowery scents mixed with the warmth of sun boring down upon the land. A large group of chitinous ponies hid well in the village concealing both their presence and the magic to do so. The leader of the bugish ponies was larger than the rest, who looked about with venom in her eye's. She spotted Celestia in the town square, who appeared to be preparing some sort of experiment.
"Blast this light my little changelings we shall strike when the time is ripe." her words dripping with acid as she felt blood lust filling her heart and mind. They looked toward their leader, then they disappeared into the shadows of the village while obeying the hive mind connection provided by their queen. The large changeling began hatching a plan of hers that would rue this day and perhaps all others.
Luna on one hoof was enjoying her frolic in the woods of Everfree, she pranced about as a Timber wolf attempted to bite her as she gathered blue flowers in a nearby meadow. With each bite her grin grew bigger as she snatched another flower. Naturally when she entered the forest of Everfree the magic of the woods summoned its sentinels to expunge the intruder. As there was only one intruder it summoned one Timber wolf to chase it out.
"Ah ha!" she chuckled "This is a great way to wake in the morning with a bit of exercise."
Timber wolf growled menacing as it pursued the tall dark mare with deadly intentions. Luna spied in a nearby bush a puk wudgie a spiny little fairy that doesn't prefer to being bothered. With a hop she bounced next to the bush as the large wooden menace lunged for her throat. She grinned as she teleported way grabbing another blue flower with her magic. The puk wudgie sent a blast of thorns into the face of the elemental of nature causing it to whine and whimper as it scampered away.
"Thanks for your assistance Puk Wudgie." She dodge a group of thorns shot in her direction " Have a nice day!"
Luna had gathered all she needed and with a great leap she dashed in the direction of Ponyville sweat covering her hide. She began thinking I do pray my dear sister knows what she is planning is rather cunning and cruel. "I feel that my sister is back to her old self just a bit at least." Luna looked towards the village with a mischievous grin "And its about time I do say so."
Celestia and Luna met in the town square on a sunny day with a ever growing crowd of ponies coming from their homes. The white mare had set up a pedestal with a hexagon shape crystal that merely floated slightly above said item. Luna grinned as she summoned a cauldron that she placed nearby as she used magic to heat the cauldron with a blaze rune around the item.
Lyra nearby spoke up "What cha doing?"
A chubby small stallion asked "Yea are you preparing to make food?"
Twilight appearing with a bedraggled mane with a book neatly tucked into the crook of her hoof spoke softly "They are preparing the test."
The crowd "ohhhh."
Spike dragging his tail behind Twilight spoke up "Oh its that test yikes!"
Celestia leveled a stare at the two and raised her hoof in a hush movement, you could hear a few chuckles from luna as she stirred the pot.
