Manteo, North Carolina.

It was just another day, and the sunlight was bathing every single street of the small town. Everyone spent the time as they wanted, like taking a walk, going with their dogs, talking with another people while their kids had fun at the park, etc.

Earlier, they had prepared their sunglasses because the news mentioned that there was going to be an eclipse at the town. So, obviously, they needed to be ready, because nobody would like to be blind thanks to some eclipse, no matter how strong it was.

Over all of those people, there was Jimmy. Right now, he was inside his home, watching some movie on the TV. He knew about the eclipse, but he was simply spending time until the great moment arrived.

As he watched the movie, Jimmy thought he heard something, stopping the movie and looking around him. After making sure nothing was there, he got calm.

"Thank God it was nothing." He said, as he continued watching the movie.

In fact, the sound had came from his bedroom. A book had fallen from the shelf.

And it was a book about the world of vampires.





An hour later, after the movie had finished, Jimmy stood up and checked his clock. It was almost the time for the eclipse.

Jimmy looked through the window, seeing the Sun about to be covered by the Moon.

"Wow! I think that's what happened when Princess Luna turned into Nightmare Moon." Jimmy said, remembering that moment on the series.

Just then, he shuddered. If that did happen on the show, he doubted he was ready to meet Nightmare Moon for real.

"I'm not sure how I would exactly react to her. But anyways, time to see the eclipse!" He said, grabbing a pair of sunglasses and the keys for home.

Before going outside, however, he stopped by his bedroom to see if everything was ok. He felt surprised when he saw the book on the floor, and he stared at it.

After a few seconds, he shook his head. It was just a book, and it had dropped off the shelf. Like that was the first time that happened.

He got the book from the floor, closing it before leaving it back on its place. And then, he made nothing else before finally going outside, as the book started glowing.

The rest of people at the town were out as well, although a few of them were still getting out of their homes,but there was no problem with that: everyone would end up seeing the eclipse.

Jimmy looked at it: the Moon was about to cover the Sun. It was such a rare event in life, but it was also a wonderful thing to see. And, for someone like Jimmy, an eclipse could mean a lot of things.

Of course, he didn't believe that Nightmare Moon could be able to attack his town, but that's another story.

Jimmy put his sunglasses on as he stared at the sky. Sun and Moon, two powerful beings, coming together to form one entity.

"I still can't believe it! It's been years since the last one! A lot of them!" Jimmy was freaking out, as he was feeling really excited.

And then, the moment came: the eclipse was fully present on the sky, and anyone who was looking at it ended up sharing their amazement with the rest of people.

An astonished Jimmy stared with his mouth agape. "It's simply beautiful..."

Inside his mind, a familiar voice could be heard.

"Don't leave your mouth open for too long."

Jimmy closed his mouth just a few seconds later, laughing a bit because of what had happened. "Heh, ok then!"

After a few minutes, the eclipse started to disappear as the Sun and Moon separated again, getting ready for accomplishing their own tasks.

Everyone at the town also went back to their normal life, although they had been able to take a lot of photos of the eclipse, photos that they would probably keep as a nice reminder.

Even Jimmy took a photo, and he looked at it as a smile was formed on his face and a single tear went out of his right eye.

And then, he walked back home for spending the rest of the day there.





Nighttime had arrived, and Jimmy got prepared. After having something good for dinner, he changed into his pajamas, brushed his teeth and prepared his bed, accomodating it so he could sleep in a comfortable way.

He slipped between the covers, which gave him a warm hug, as he liked. Looking around, he saw everything was on its place, so he had nothing to worry about.

"Ah, this has been such a good day." He said, right before closing his eyes.





Two hours had passed, and Jimmy woke up. He had a confused expression on his face as he looked around.

"Huh... Technically, I'm supposed to be sleeping right now, but... I don't feel tired." He thought, scratching his head.

"Well, I guess I could try to make myself feel tired."

Jimmy stood up and wandered around his own house as he spent some time doing things so he could be tired enough for sleeping. Cleaning the dishes, watching something on the TV, practicing some football with a ball he had, making some exercise, reading, and more...

When he was finally sure he was tired, he went back to his room, slipping between the covers once more.

"Well, It has taken a bit long, but I think I'll be able to sleep this time." He said, closing his eyes.

Jimmy, however, had failed to notice a few things.

For starters, the Sun would appear very soon, as he had spent a lot hours being busy.

Also, the aforementioned book was glowing again. The one which had dropped before.

Jimmy kept sleeping as those things happened.

Oh, and there was also another issue he hadn't noticed. A small issue, but it would change his life.

His hair was turning black and red...
