//------------------------------// // 5weet dreams are made of these // Story: So What If I Can't Attack as a Hero // by GreenMage //------------------------------// Sheer emptiness engulfed the dream walker. She had only recently renewed her duty as the savior of those suffering nightmares. Her sister warned her right before she entered her sanctuary that a human will likely be needing her assistance. She remembers how barbaric humans were in her time and hopes this so called Green Mage is nothing like them. She sees a new door that is covered in stickers of a strange art style she had never seen before. This must be it. The door glides open with great ease. A sign that this human is having a good dream rather than the nightmare she was prepared to face. A strange box glowed with moving pictures and sound. A little human girl was staring at it singing, " Fighting evil by the moonlight!" She sang as if she etched the song into her mind forever. Luna was in a pleasant shock. It would seem this human enjoys the night and judging by what she is watching she is not alone. Hey Luna. You know you can watch the show with me. Also the black cat is also named Luna. How did thou human know we were in thy presence? I never lucid dream and considering the stories I've heard about how you interact with ponies in their dreams I assumed you were behind my sudden control. Also I got a dream walking skill and it told me I got it from you. Hmm It is as sister said. You do have an incredible ability to copy from others. Perhaps thou could become my protege. I'm not going to spend my life dealing with what is basicly customer service. Anyway this is the episode where Sailor Moon gets drunk. And so, our princess spent the night trying to learn more about this human and her culture. Instead she discovered that humans love their anime. The sun shines viciously upon the eyes of Lime Light. Being able to binge Sailor Moon while sleeping is a dream come true, but waking up is still a drag. Oh, you are awake. That's good because the girls and I need your help. You see Rainbow Dash went to visit Rarity and kind of tore her house to the ground. Don't worry, nopony is dead, but you might want to cast Repairo so Rarity doesn't make that no longer the case. Twilight.... Get me coffee or tea and get the hell away from me before I Rainbow Dash your house. Will do. So our heroine leaves for the ruines of Rarity's Boutique after a hearty breakfast of black coffee and morning passive aggression. Jesus Rainbow Crash. Could you be any more of a hazard? What the Hell would you do if I couldn't cast [Repairo]. It will take some time to get this fixed. So why don't you mares give me a town tour while Pinkie prepares the party I'm supposed to not know about. How did you... Really Twilight? It is Pinkie we are talking about. Plus I know Rainbow is an idiot, but even she wouldn't accidentally create this much damage. Rainbow Dash was about to refute the claim to her stupidity, but she does accidentally cause damage like this on a regular basis. So she blushes and looks away. Rainbow you need to learn self control. That speed comes at a price and destroying homes is not worth it. Fortunately I will have this all fixed, but next time you owe me and the owner of what you destroy. My magic is not to be treated as a free pass to be a speedaholic. Fine. I will make sure not to go fast in town. Good. So Rarity, why did you let Rainbow do this? What if I couldn't fix it? Oh darling, we all know you can fix this, because we have seen you in action. Anyway since you are aware of the party how about we visit Applejack. She is working but your shadow clones would make her able to help with the party. That is a good idea. Plus it gives me an excuse to use [Gate] Wow. Don't do that without telling us. Errr can I help y'all? She figured out the party so we are going to help so you can help with the party. I don't need help. You are an Apple pro so of course you don't need help. That being said we want to spend time with you and us helping is a good productive way to do that. Well l when you put it like that I don't see a problem with helping. Good. So I will use my [Shadow Clones] to pick up and carry baskets while y'all buck the trees. Sound good? I bet I can buck more than Applejack! So help me Rainbow Dash I will beat sense into you if I have to. No super speed while around important breakable objects. But you can just.... Ok I get it. No super speed. And so our trio finished the harvest in record time and went to Suger Cube Corner to help Pinkie and Fluttershy with the party. Pinkie froze solid when she saw Lime Light, but that is to be expected of her. After 2 hours the whole town surrounded the bakery to see the Hero everypony was talking about. Once everypony got a sneak peek Lime Light spoke to the crowd. Hello Ponyville. I am Lime Light and yes I am the summoned hero. Before anypony asks. No I am not a pony. I am a human that has changed to look like a unicorn to ease everypony into knowing me. That being said, I am not like the humans you have heard of. I come from another world so our cultures are quite different. My society has advanced well beyond you in technology, but we have no magic. (Gasps are heard from unicorns). Any questions? Yes Harpy? " Actually my name is Lyra. So are you single?" Laughs were spattered in audience since they knew of Lyra's fetish. Her girlfriend was not laughing,but instead sighing with hand to her face. I am, but I don't think you can say the same. The audience asked various questions of little importance. Such as favorite muffin flavor and color. After 30 minutes the QA was over and a letter came from Spike. Lime Light, Princess Celestia wants you to meet her at the royal court. She has given the tickets already. Here. Well that was fast. I guess she realizes I'm not dangerous enough to not let into castle. You know Darling, your paranoia is most unbecoming of a hero. Rarity paranoia is what keeps heroes alive long enough to end wars. That being said I am surprised she has invited me so soon. I'm assuming my bonding with Luna last night has eased her trepidation with me. After all the bond between anime fans is strong. Are you talking about those moving pictures with gruesome displays of war. Kind of? I showed her a kid friendly show I grew up on called Sailor Moon Well that explains why Luna has also sent a letter Dear Lime Light, bring this so called anime with you.
