//------------------------------// // Totally Nothing To Worry About // Story: Adventures Of An Animus Dragon // by Undertotem //------------------------------// "Hello there" Was the only thing the two princesses and one dragon heard from the previously pain spazzing dragon. Their faces held a mix of shock and confusion as they did not know how to respond to the sudden calm response of the RainWing. Stargazer on the other talon was blissfully unaware of the panic and worry he caused, smiled brightly as his scales turn golden yellow and rose pink, seeing as the two princesses was already visiting him, even in the short amount of time they've met. With ears perked up, he addressed the two princesses. "So, what are you doing here your Highness's, did something happen?" Stargazer asked as he looked back and forth at both princesses who were still looking at him with shock. The confusion and silence was then disrupted when Luna answered his question. "What do you mean "Something happened"!?!? Of course something happened, Spike sent us a letter saying that you were in pain and something bad was happening to you!!! And when we did arrive here, Spike had a panicked look on his face, and when we saw you, you were thrashing on the floor holding your head!!! And now you're here calmly addressing us like nothing happened and-" Luna yelled, but was then cut off due to a yellow glow forming around her muzzle. Stargazer on the other talon was taken aback due to the shouting, shocked that something happened to him, but he was still unsure, the only thing that he felt was a slight pain on his head when his visions were playing, like getting hit with a bottle. He then asked another question, just to make sure his suspicions were true. "Sssooooooo~, something did happen to me right?" He asked, wanting to know what actually happened to him since he was "unconscious" at that time. Celestia sighed, seeing as the dragon had no clue as to what happened to him. "Stargazer, could you please look at me for a moment, I would like to ask you a question." Celestia said, calling for the attention of the red and white RainWing. Stargazer then looked at the white princess with a face full of questions, but he still went with it. "Um.... Sure thing, what do you want to know?" He asked Princess Celestia as he looked at her. "Can you tell me what happened before you collapsed and felt pain?" Celestia asked, trying to figure out what happened. So then Stargazer told Celestia what happened after he woke up, but he didn't tell her about his vision. Instead he told her something else. Before mentioning the part where he went unconscious, he quietly prayed to any entity out in the universe to help him come up with a believable lie. And alas, his prayers were answered by a quick vision of the future, as he was explaining the events before the head ache. In Stargazer's vision, he saw a group of dragons heading towards Ponyville from the Everfree Forest. The vision was only brief, like a few shots from a camera, but that was already enough for the white and red dragon to come up with an excuse as to not "ruin" the future. Stargazer then explained the newest vision that he saw to Celestia. "I see...... That was one of your powers you told us before, the power to see the future. Your vision was most likely the reason why you felt an intense headache. I would suggest for you to have mental exercises with Luna in order for your pains too lessen, if she agrees. But, back to the matter at hoof, a group of dragons is very worrying, one dragon is already a big problem for us, and he was a sleeping adult." Celestia said, worried about the safety of her ponies. She even thought about adding more guards to patrol the town just to prepare for the dragons' arrival. "Did your vision show you anything else, important dates, or anything worth mentioning?" Celestia continued, but only received a head shaking no from the RainWing. Celestia sighed and looked back at Luna who was thinking much about the problem as she is. Celestia wished that she could see this future. Her prophetic visions only seem to take note of important events, like the return of Tirek, she actually does not have full control over her foreseeing powers, since it only comes to her through dreams or vivid image flashes. Her thoughts were then interrupted by the blue Alicorn beside her. "Could you not try and venture the visions that you see?" Luna asked the white and red dragon, only to get the same head shaking no from said dragon. "I don't think that I can do that or see that far, well, I can venture a bit, but I can't see all possibilities only a few of them. Three moons, I even get lessons form someone who knows how to do it with a few years of experience." Stargazer replied. This was a true fact that he did not know how to properly venture through his visions. He was not as gifted as Clearsight for being a seer, the most he got from the one on one lessons he had with Moonwatcher was that he either had to deal with it or act accordingly. He still could scurry through the future to some extent, but the future is always ever changing, thus his visions are rarely viable. "*sigh* As unfortunate as it seems, there is nothing else that we could do but prepare for the dragons coming, if they do come." Luna said. "I agree sister, I do believe that we should add more guards patrolling Ponyville, just to keep the citizens safe." Celestia then said, adding a few bits of her thoughts on the subject. "I agree as well for adding more guards. But on a different topic, let us then discuss on what to do about Stargazer's mental exercises." Luna then said, shifting the topic to one that would help the RainWing with his painful head problems. Stargazer on the other talon was hoping that they would forget about the mental exercises that the white Princess thought up for him during the whole conversation. But alas, it did not happen. Although he knew that they were doing it out of good will and that he knew that it would probably benefit him in the long run, he just didn't want to exert more energy on things that he didn't want to do. After the disscusion between the RainWing and the two Alicorns, the two princesses then left Twilights Castle saying their good byes and farewells. Spike and Stargazer was then left again to do whatever they were supposed to do. "So, you think you're gonna' be okay?" Spike asked still somewhat concerned about his friend. Spike then saw Stargazers scales start to turn into a mix of green and dark purple. He saw the worried face the green and purple dragon wore, seeing his face and the color of his scales made him look sadder. "Heh, yeah, I...... Thinks so. Sorry for making you worried back there." Stargazer said, kind of guilty that he made the young dragon worry about him alot, even if he's not saying it. He then "heard" Spike blame himself for not being able to do anything. Stargazer was shocked by this, so the next thing that he did was lower down his body and lower his head towards the young dragon. "Hey, hey now, don't go off and beat yourself just because you couldn't do anything about the situation. We both couldn't do anything about it and we bothe wouldn't have know that was going to happen, so don't blame yourself for something you didn't know was going to happen. Okay?" Stargazer said, his colors shifting back to the original white and red, as he held the green and purple dragon with his talon. Spike was shocked as he heard the white and red dragon tell him to stop blaming himself. He quickly wondered how he knew it, but then remembered that Stargazer could read minds, from what he told them when they were back in Canterlot. Spike then looked at the other dragon and sighed. "Just don't do anything like that okay?" Spike said, his eyes slightly watering. He then walked forward and hugged the other dragons neck. Stargazer was slightly shocked at this action, but it then quickly disappeared as he thought to himself to just let it happen. "Sure thing Spike, sure thing." He then said as they held each other abit longer. "So how about we head out now and see what we can get to eat, I'm kinda getting hungry now." Stargazer said his scales turning golden yellow and rose pink while he gives a genuine smile to the young dragon. Spike then rubbed his eyes off of moisture and cheered up. "Sure thing Star!" He said while giving a thumbs up to the RainWing. He then turned around to head towards the front door of the castle, only to be hoisted up by a talon and gently settled down on the back of the larger dragon. Stargazer on the other talon started walking, while Spike was on his back clinging on his neck. They then reached the doors to the outside, and was hit by the smell of fresh air. They then started to walk to where they both can eat. Then while walking, Stargazer spoke, "Though to be honest, there's like, totally nothing to worry about." He then said.
