Lunar Soul

Magic

Yawning I slowly woke up my body all sprawled out on the bed, smacking my lips together I looked around the room still the same..still a horse…

Rolling out of the bed I stretched making my back pop and then wings as I stretched them "hm guess that's from using them to fly yesterday…" I rubbed my eye with a hoof and walked towards the door.

I might as well get started with whatever Twilight had planned for the day, better sooner rather than later, walking into the library I marvelled at the room, it was incredible just like a mythical library from a fantasy movie or show.

I walked along the shelves since Twilight wasn't here yet, looking at each book I read the titles, magical spell books, history of magic spells, magic spells about history….it blew my mind I was now in a world where magic was real...well I kind of believe it was real on earth but here it's actually used every day.

I stopped when I read the title of one book "Multidimensional Myths & Legends" this...this could be my ticket home, it could have spells or something on how to send me home! Unfortunately it was on the third row shelf...higher than I could reach standing on all fours, reaching up I failed to reach it so I put one front hoof up on the second shelf and reach for the three with my free hoof, I just barely could touch the top of the book, trying to pull it, it moved barely.

I kept reaching moving to the tops of my hooves and got my hoof on top of the book pulling on it getting it free and sending it toppling to the floor, I smiled victoriously..before suddenly a avalanche of books came crashing down on top of me burying me beneath the heavy books.


Twilight trotted down the hall smiling, she was actually very excited for today because today was her day with Nightmare Moon, she'd get to help her learn Magic, though really Twilight would most likely be learning from Nightmare, Luna was once the host for Nightmare so she should have all her magical Knowledge….at least she hoped so.

She'd also be learning more about what exactly is Nightmare Moon, how she came into being, and how she's even here...Twilight assumes her spell to bring the remnants of Nightmare Moons essence she had detected somehow brought all of Nightmare, perhaps the remnants acted as sleeping small parts of Nightmare Moon and the awakening of them called the rest of her back from wherever she was sent after the elements released Luna from her.

Perhaps the spells magic is acting as a sort of host for Nightmare, she was so curious about it all….and she felt bad...her reckless behavior and crave for knowledge inadvertently brought a powerful villain back to the world...if Nightmare was like her usual self she could have done a lot of damage the PonyVill, Equestria even.

She should feel lucky that Nightmare Moon seems to have changed or been altered due to the spell...or in the possibility of what Nightmare Moon had said that she in fact is a totally different being in the form of Nightmare Moon then they were lucky….but she would have also caused an innocent life to be forced into a unwanted situation….taken from their life and put in another….even if she didn't believe it Twilight still could understand how horrible it could be.

Shaking her head to clear the thoughts she put her smile back on and walked through the libraries doors just as a cascade of books fell over by the bookshelf, the form of Nightmare Moon being seen for a split second before buried.

Hurrying over Twilight levitated the books off of her he re-shelved them "what happened??"

"Sorry…." Nightmare groaned standing up and rubbing her head "I saw a book and when I grabbed it the rest came down onto me…"

She wanted to read a book?...one of my books?? Twilight's smile returned "that's great!...the wanting to read of the books part, not them falling into you" she chuckled embarrassed.

"Oh...uh yeah...but this book should help me..or you I guess since your the magic expert, send me back home" she pushed the book over to Twilight across the ground.

Twilight looked down reading the title "Multidimensional Myths & Legends…?"

"Yeah! I figure since this is definitely not my world then I'm from another dimension" she smiled with those sharp teeth.

Twilight felt unnerved by the smile but kept it hidden "well...I can give it a read and see if there's anything I can figure out" she levitated it to a nearby table.

Nightmare looked at Twilight with a look of envy.

"What…?" Twilight asked.


"What?" Twilight asked.

"Oh sorry….it's just...you can levitate things around so easily...I just wish I could, it'd make everything so much easier...like with the bookshelf, if I could have levitated the book then I wouldn't have gotten buried…" I sighed looking up at my useless horn, but when I looked down my eyes widened as Twilight was looking at me almost appalled.

"You...don't know how to perform a levitation spell?" Twilight was baffled, she knew Nightmare had to know the spell, heck most unicorn fillies know it!

"Uh...no...non-pony in a pony body...remember?"

Still with that story…wait...maybe when Nightmare was brought back she lost all magical control? And she was using this story to hide her embarrassment, Twilight knew if she had suddenly lost the ability to use spells she'd be embarrassed and would try to make up some excuse to hide her shame..

This could actually work in her favor, she'd be able to teach Nightmare Moon Magic and possibly make her learn something, she couldn't actually change for the better with the help of Twilight and her friends, and Twilight herself could learn more about Nightmare through this.

"...right...well then you'll be happy to know today I shall be teaching you the element of Magic!" Twilight declared with a smile.

My eyes widened "wait...really???" 

Twilight nodded, she wasn't expecting her to sound so excited honestly "let's get started with the basics then and try out levitation" Twilight walked over to a more open spot and made a couple of blocks appear on the ground.

I stood and looked at them, they reminded me of a child's play blocks sitting down I looked at Twilight "um...now what? I say hocus-pocus and they float?" I smirked from my joke.

"Well….if you want to sure, but levitation usually requires the pony to focus their magic into their horn and picture moving the object they want to move, ponies haven't really declared spells in hundreds of years" Twilight explained missing the joke.

My smirk dropped at her missing my joke "uh ok…" I looked at the blocks, just focused magic into my horn, easy….I focused….and felt nothing, frowning I focused harder...move….move...mooove…

...hocus-pocus?..

...alakazam...

...abracadabra…

....opensesame...wait that's for doors, grumbling I looked at the stubborn non-moving little blocks "this is impossible.."

Twilight frowned, she shouldn't be having this much trouble, she's a Alicorn for Celestia's sake "hm well…..are you sure you're focusing?"

"Yes Twilight, I'm focusing with everything I got! But they won't move" I frowned.

Twilight rubbed her chin then levitated the blocks...it wasn't the blocks….looking at her she rethought her approach "alright...let's try this, close your eyes and imagine your picking the blocks up with your hoof."

Huffing I closed my eyes, picking it up with my hoof? Yeah like I can do that normally...I tried picturing it but it's hard to imagine doing something when you've never done it before…

Twilight watched waiting for Nightmare to actually lift the blocks…..it was taking her longer than she thought…and judging by the creasing of her brows she was getting frustrated...

My patience began to thin….this was getting annoying 'picture picking it up with your hoof' he mentally mimicked twilight voice though in a mocking tone, I'm more used to using hands...hands...wait...maybe that's what I should do? Just picture picking the blocks up with my hand….

Breathing deeply I then exhaled and pictured my hand picking a block up, it was easy, just grab and lift, I felt the horn in my head tingle with warmth...I was doing it! I opened my eyes smiling at my achievement….only to look in horror as the block I picture picking up was now a pile of ash.

Twilight had leapt back in surprise when the block was turned to ash, Nightmare had looked so calm and focused then bam her horn glowed and the block was smoking ashes…disintegration spell...that's a rather...deadly and lesser known spell...

"U-um...perhaps...we should try another spell?" She cleared her throat glancing at Nightmare.

I frowned, I thought I had had it….of course I didn't...why would I? When has anything worked for me in this world?? "Yeah...sure."

She sounded upset, keep calm Twilight don't need to upset the powerful Alicorn, Twilight looked around the room for a possible idea as to what to help Nightmare practice a spell with, her eyes scanning the room passing the chandelier before refocusing on it, a lightbulb going off in Twilight's head "alright we're going to try a light spell!" 

"Light spell?"

"Yes, just focus your magic to the tip of your horn and after that just try to make it brighter" Twilight smiled.

Yeah cause that sounds so easy, taking a deep breath I remained seated and closed my eyes focusing my magic to the tip of my horn….I guess….I felt a strange tingle, a little irritating and uncomfortable feeling, I tried to push said feeling up to the tip of the horn.

Twilight's smile widened seeing a small light sphere glow at the tip of Nightmares horn, though it was no larger than a marble and it wasn't very bright "ok good but now try to make it brighter and bigger."

Ok...I focused a bit harder trying to push that feeling more and make it stronger, the tip of my horn getting warmer as I focused.

Now it was the size of a golf ball "...that was good but….maybe a bit bigger?"

Oh come on! Suppressing a growl I focused harder, I was beginning to strain as I focused more of the feeling to the tip, she wanted it bigger, brighter, fine! I'll make it as bright as the god damn sun if I have to!!

"U-um Nightmare...perhaps you should cut it back?" Twilight spoke up sounding nervous, I however was more focused on the fact she called me Nightmare again…

"I... already told you..nghh my names Blake…" it was hard to focus on talking and this stupid light spell!

"Stop the spell!!" 

"Oh now you want me to stop it? What is it not big enough??" I growled

"Open your eyes!!!" Twilight yelled.

I opened them with a look of annoyance before that turned into shock as above me sat a giant ball of light "I whaa?!?" 

"You put to much magic into….now just stay calm and try to ease the magic out of the spell…" Twilight instructed trying to keep her distance while also trying not to move to far away.

"Ok ok…..how do I do that??" Fear was in my voice as I was trying to balance what was a james and the giant peace sized ball of light on my horn much like a seal would a ball on its nose.

Twilight was getting a bit frustrated with these constant questions an adult unicorn should know "just picture a…...hose and you're letting water out of...slowly."

Right..I could do that...just ease the magic out of this giant blimp….water out of a hose, water sloooowly coming out of a hose…..wat-crap now I gotta pee! 

The ball of light got bigger..

"Gahh ok ok stop heheh no more magic!" Twilight smiled nervously.

"I didn't mean too! I don't know how this works!!!" I yelled worriedly.

The sphere enlarged once more.

"Ok ok!! Just um clear your mind! And try to keep your magic from flowing into it" Twilight order as she tried to think of a spell to help.

Ok just don't let magic into it….the tingling which was originally uncomfortable and irritating now felt way worse, like when a hair or something tickled your nose and you feel like you have to sneeze only you can't...like that except burning hot and there's a giant ball of light hanging over your head.

Sweat began to run down my head as I strained, this thing was heavy and kinda warm…..didn't help it felt like this rod on my forehead felt like it was heating up, actually...it was starting to feel painful...like trying to hold in something that really really wanted out "….oh no….I think...I'm...loosing...it!" 

The seal I'd been keeping closed in my horn burst causing the sphere to suddenly grow gigantic, it's round shape deformed and bubbled before with a bright glow it popped and a booming noise sending me off my feet…..hooves.


Twilight smiled as the glow of light got to the normal size as she was used to seeing from other unicorns using the spell...her smile soon dropped as it then got bigger...and bigger...and oh no "u-um Nightmare...perhaps you should cut it back?"

"I... already told you..nghh my names Blake…" Nightmare Moon growled as the sphere on her horn got bigger...and bigger, she was putting more magic into it.

"Stop the spell!!" Twilight yelled as the sphere was growing far larger than normal..

"Oh now you want me to stop it? What is it not big enough??" She growled.

"Open your eyes!!!" Twilight yelled.

Nightmare opened her eyes with a look of annoyance before that turned into shock as above her sat the light spell only humongous "I whaa?!?" 

"You put to much magic into….now just stay calm and try to ease the magic out of the spell…" Twilight instructed trying to keep her distance while also trying not to move to far away, she wanted to rush to Nightmare incase this got out of hoof.

"Ok ok…..how do I do that??" She sounded fearful which was unexpected because she was Nightmare Moon, though many things were unexpected about this Nightmare Moon.

Twilight was getting a bit frustrated with these constant questions an adult unicorn should know, especially a Alicorn for Celestia's sake "just picture a…...hose and you're letting water out of...slowly."

Nightmare seemed to focus releasing Twilight, maybe she could salvage this, it could be a...leading experience for her! Yeah this was fine.

The ball of light got bigger..

"Gahh ok ok stop heheh no more magic!" Twilight smiled nervously she didn't want Nightmare to lose anymore focus.

"I didn't mean too! I don't know how this works!!!" She yelled.

The sphere enlarged once more.

"Ok ok!! Just um clear your mind! And try to keep your magic from flowing into it" Twilight order as she tried to think of a spell to help solve this situation.

Twilight honestly couldn't believe such a simple spell could escalate to this! Could have perhaps been because of alice magic? That brought more curious questions to mind, if Alicorn magic could do this to a simple light spell well then...what else could it do? 

Now realizing this offered her a chance to test out the capabilities of an alicorns magic not her own Twilight was filled with intense curiosity, experimenting and recording her own magic talent was a bit difficult even with spikes help, it just wasn't the same as seeing it yourself and writing down the information..

 "….oh no….I think...I'm...loosing...it!!" Nightmare suddenly exclaimed with a strain in her voice.

Twilight's eyes widened before the light sphere grew even larger, it's form began to deteriorate bubbling and growing brighter before with a loud explosion and a flash of light Twilight was knocked off her hooves.


I groaned awake…..my head felt like someone just danced on it, and I smelt smoke...blinking my eyes open I saw a slow steady stream of smoke coming from above my field of vision, rolling to my hooves I wobbled before reaching up and felt for whatever was smoking wincing as I felt it both sting whatever it was and also burn my hoof abit, it wasn't horn...those rings can burn? I really hope that doesn't do any permanent damage…

Looking around the room I found everything was a mess, the tables were knocked over, the books no longer on their shelves, I cringed seeing the mess….I did this... Twilight was gonna be pissed...wait where was Twilight??

I began searching the room hurriedly before I found her with some books on top of her, quickly moving them off I shook Twilight "Twilight? Twilight?? Are you ok???"

Twilight groaned and sat up rubbing her head "I wish I had put a shield spell….but at least it didn't do anything to damaging"

"Well….to us…" I chuckled nervously.

Twilight looked confused before she noticed the library and gasped eyes wide, I prepared myself for her scolding, yelling at me for not having control, telling me to leave…

"W-well...it's...not...as bad...as it could be" Twilight smiled eye twitching, she was trying so hard not to loose it but...she had other things to focus on "how about we focus on your magic instead??"

"Wait what?...you still want to help me learn magic?...after this?" I gestured around the room.

"Yes, I believe I'll-you'll learn so much!" Twilight quickly corrected.

"Ok…" I honestly was worried about trying anymore magic but...if Twilight thought I could I couldn't just say no..

Twilight smiled and vanished in a flash, she then reappeared with a big stack of different items, some looked like books, others almost familiar machines, and the rest fantasy magic stuff..

Honestly I was just as curious about that stuff as I was on learning how to do whatever she was doing...that appearing and disappearing was really confusing...

"Alright let's get started!" Twilight smiled and levitated a stool over then tapped her hoof in front of it "sit here please."

Obeying I sat where instructed to and felt Twilight begin putting small suction cups across my face, this reminded me of a cartoon lie detector test….or a cartoon shocking machine….both worried me...one more than the other…

Twilight placed a potted plant in the stool in front of me.

Was...was this who was questioning me?....was i questioning it...why is my life now these questions??

"Alright, your going to be trying a growth spell, to be specific a plant growing spell" Twilight said levitating a clip board in front of her.

"And I do that how?"

"Just focus your magic into the plant and try to make it grow" Twilight brought a quill over.

"Ok...so..I just...start?" 

She nodded "yup go."

Blinking I looked to the potted plant and stared at it intently, focus magic into plant, make grow...those were my objectives...but how do I know when I've put the magic in it?

I tried bringing that tingling back into my horn and was surprised to feel the sudden rush before flowing as it went to the plant, that was easy...maybe all I needed was to explode my horn to make it work?

Now with the magic in it...I didn't know what to do, I tried magic words before and they didn't work….squinting I tried thinking grow….get bigger? Please? Rubbing my chin I thought for a couple seconds.

Twilight looked over her clipboard...nothing was happening, she was impressed Nightmare got the magic into the plant but she remembered this was an Alicorn and that was easy…now she was just sat there...was she thinking of spells? What if she was trying to think up a super sophisticated spell that would completely changed the plant into something unexpected??

Maybe….talking to the plant would help? I remember hearing somewhere that plants have feelings, so maybe saying something nice will help? Just gotta think for a second...ok, clearing my throat I leaned forward "hi little plant-" 

The small house plant exploded up from it's pot in gigantic vines that pushed both me and Twilight backwards as the large vines shot up to the ceiling and crawled across the ceiling and walls.

Twilight popped out from under some vines spitting a leaf out, that..that was unexpected...but so interesting!!! A simple growth spell resulted in well this!! Her entire library looked like a jungle! She never could have imagined this, she was definitely glad she had set up the magical recorder, now she'd have data on the fluctuations of Nightmare Moons Mana levels as she cast the spell!...wait where was Nightmare?

"Uh...Twilight….little help" I asked as I hung upside down from a vine which was wrapped around me, I'm honestly not sure how I ended up like this….nor how I made the plant like this…

"Oh! Don't worry I'll get you down" Twilight vanished then appeared by Nightmare before they both vanished and appeared back on the ground.

I wobbled...dizzy….taste purple….I shook my head and blinked, how did we get to the ground?...did she cast a spell- my thoughts were interrupted upon looking at the room, I cringed once more at my handy work "uh….I...I'm sorry again…"

"What? Oh don't worry about it" Twilight's horn lit up and suddenly the vines vanished including the pot, she trotted over to her knocked over equipment and put it back in place before looking at the sheet of paper with zigzag lines on it.

Reminded me of a seismograph, was that from the wires stuck to my head? I peaked over Twilight which was easy because of my size.

Twilight studied the paper intently making small adorable happy sounds as she looked the paper over, I had to hold back my own noises of happiness...to cute….just to cute.

Deciding to focus on the papers I leaned down to get a closer look.

"Alright let's move onto the n-" Twilight was mid sentence as she turned around and bumped noses with the large mare Nightmare Moon, both pressed together and looking into each other's wide surprised eyes.

"Eep!!" I jumped back falling on my back as I fumbled with my hooves.

Twilight blushed with a scrunched nose before she looked at the fallen over mare and giggled.

Hearing her giggle I blushed deeper red and quickly got to my hooves trying to puff my chest out and look tough...being a tall dark and pretty mare did not help with that…

Clearing my throat "let's continue" I avoided eye contact as my blush was still present, curse this world and its will to put me in embarrassing positions...I already accidentally fell on top of her when leaving the hospital...she was so small and I'm fricken huge….she'd fit under me perfectly-ahhhhh stop with the thoughts!!!

"Alright the next spell I'd like for you to try is a transformation spell, turning one object into another" Twilight put an apple on the stool.

"Wait could that help change me back??" My previous thoughts being thrown out the window and replaced with hope of returning to my normal self.

"....no….it's..more so meant for items….there are spells that can change a pony temporarily" Twilight explained.

I frowned "oh…." There goes that idea.

Twilight blinked before she grabbed a pair of steam punk looking glasses and put them on, there was a glowing crystal ported into the side of one of the frames "let's try the spell."

"Right…" I huffed and looked at the apple "so what do you want me to turn it into?"

"How about an orange?" 

I focused the magic to my horn once more, the familiar tingling returning….I really, realllly tried to focus on making this turn into an orange…

The apple began to glow, it shook slightly before turning to dust..

Twilight blinked then made another apple appear..

Focusing again I tried once more.

The apple glowing before turning to mush.

Twilight made another appear.

Gritting my teeth I focused hard and my horn glowed brightly, with a flash the apple was no more now sitting in its place was...a banana??!?

"Oh come on!!" I growled.

Twilight was not upset at all, in fact she was having quite the opposite reaction, complete transformation of not only shape! But type of fruit as well!!

"Can I be done with the transformation spell?" I grumbled.

"Yes yes, now let's try something different" Twilight went back to her pile of gear, meanwhile the banana spread multiple legs and crawled off the stool unnoticed, Twilight walked back to Nightmare and placed a small clamp on her horn connected to a thin cable leading to the managraph and a rectangular metal box with multiple colored crystals on top of it.

I raised my brow...did she just stick a jumper cable to my horn?...now I was really worried of being shocked "uh...what spell does this involve?" 

"Hm? Oh you won't be casting a spell, you'll just be building magic in your horn and I'll analyse it" Twilight said while adjusting a few things.

"Oh…." So I was a lab rat..

"You can start whenever you feel like" Twilight didn't even bother to turn around as she continued mess with the devices.

I focused magic into my horn feeling the tingle, the seismograph machine beginning to scratch away at the paper, and the different crystals would light up randomly, the room was pretty much quiet all except for the scratching of the paper….

My horn tingled and irritated me...I just couldn't get used to that feeling, and hearing that machine just scratching over and over was starting to bug me...just sitting here on the floor with some clamp stuck to my head….

A couple minutes went by...my butt was getting numb and I was pretty tired...I had to fight back yawning a couple times "hey Twilight can I get a p-"

"Don't talk, you loosened the cable" Twilight fixed it before returning to silence.

My eye twitched, so now I wasn't allowed to talk….oh goody...what a fun lesson i am learning by her greatness Twilight Sparkle, perhaps next she'll allow me to clean the floor with my toothbrush...oh wait I didn't have one here...I didn't actually own anything in this world…

Just when I think my view of Twilight was wrong...she goes and reveals her true colors..all she wanted me here for was this, to test, to see what I can do, like some clown for her entertainment.

The paper scratched louder, she couldn't have given me a book or something? No no books for me in this library…why allow her test subject be entertained?...just think of myself as a subject of hers as infuriating...the only subject in this room was her…

We-I shouldn't be treated in such a fashion! I was bigger than her and undoubtedly stronger...yet she treats me like I'm lower, how dare she...she who is nothing but a false Alicorn...just a unicorn who was given wings and believes herself worthy of the title!

Twilight looked at the managraph as it was going off the chart, literally! The crystals were now all glowing all together slowly getting brighter and brighter, Nightmare Moon was pumping out a lot of magic, the crystals suddenly began to pop and shatter, Twilight jumping back in shock "Nightmare...perhaps we should end the te-"

"My name is not Nightmare Moon!!!" I roared getting onto my hooves and glaring down at the small mare "my name is Blake!! Remember it! And refer to me only as such!! I will not remind you again!"

Twilight cowered back as the mare before her seemed to become far more imposing, her slitted eyes reminding of a venomous snake just as much as Nightmares words spoke with venom "I-I'm sorry...I..I didn't mean to upset you."

"Oh no you merely wished to see the capabilities of us, you wish to see what we can do??" My horn alit with a blue aura before the managraph and rectangular box was sent flying across the room and smashing into the wall "perhaps not enough for the ever curious Twilight Sparkle!" The remaining books flew off the shelf and began to swirl around the two of us, tables being smashed into and thrown aside as the books swarmed.

Twilight dodged a few books as the zoomed by, she lit her horn trying to stop them but found her magic outmatched, just as she was about to cast a spell towards Nightmare she felt the cable from before wrap up her legs and then horn causing her to have to bend her head down forcefully..

I cackled throwing my head back and spreading my wings at the sight so similar to what she'd made me suffer through, prevented from doing what she wished, at the mercy of the better mare!

Twilight's eyes were wide, the sight before her putting her back at the castle of the two sisters all those years ago, Nightmare Moon standing above her cackling mockingly...she was right they all were! This truly was Nightmare Moon! All this just an act!

As I cackled glaring down at Twilight the shattered remains of the crystals from the box at her hooves...I saw my reflection in them...was...was that what I looked like?...flashes of the episode Nightmare Moon started in...I realized how similar I appeared...not just in body but...posture...expression….cruelty..

Twilight watched all the books suddenly fall to the ground, eyes refocusing on Nightmare she saw...her focus on the crystals below? What was her game?...and why did she look so horrified? Twilight watched the taller mare shake her head no as she backed up.

"No...no I am not her!!! That is not me!!" Tears built up in my eyes, everything I tried not to be that monster...not be what everyone saw me as...all wasted because what I saw was that monster, I crumbled to the ground holding my head in my hooves.

Twilight realized the cable was loose and freed herself, such a drastic different in the mare she just saw standing so strong and dark..now lied crumbled and crying….it didn't make sense for this to be a trick...for what reason now?? She had Twilight at her mercy easily able to kill her...but she didn't….she looked horrified of something….

Looking to the crystals twilight saw her reflecting in them...realization slowly hitting her, she was horrified of herself?...perhaps...when they freed Luna with the elements of harmony...it affected Nightmare Moon in another way, perhaps reforming her in some way...now she may realize her mistakes and is trying to get away from them? It would explain why she would want to be called by another name, and why she was so broken up about falling back into her old ways…Something Twilight had caused..

Frowning Twilight moved closer to Nightmare "I'm...I'm sorry for pushing you….I lost track of why we even began this today….to focused on my own curiosity rather than helping you…"

I sniffled not looking at her "doesn't mean I should go ballistic…"

"While true...I can understand getting frustrated and angry with someone... someone who told you not to talk…" Twilight now regretted saying that at the time...how could she do that to a pony?

Slowly I sat up "we...both made mistakes…"

"I promise not to force any tests on you again…" Twilight looked at her.

"And...I promise not to go crazy" I chuckled softly.

Twilight cracked a smile "deal…"

As I looked at her smiling I wobbled slightly suddenly dizzy "woah…." I felt so weak...tired, like I'd ran a marathon all day..

Twilight held her up "are you alright??"

"Yeah..yeah just...tired I guess.." my eyes felt so heavy...jeez I hated feeling like this..reminded me of a time when I was at school and almost passed out in my desk.

Could she be that drained? She didn't expect all this to tire her out so quick, this could also explain her wild outburst...Twilight now felt even worse…"we should get you to your bed for some rest, ok?"

I nodded too tired to reply, Twilight helped me get to my hooves and walked out of the trashed library, she walked me back to my room me practically leaning completely against her...her fur was so soft and she was so warm...like a nice pillow…

Twilight got to the room and helped her into bed, looking to her she was going to as if she needed anything only to find the large mare already sound asleep, smiling softly she pulled the blanket up over Nightmare and left the room closing the door behind her quietly, she needed something fun to do tomorrow...Rarity should know how to treat a noble mare like her! And she could learn generosity in the process, it was perfect!

Twilight trotted off smiling as she went to prepare tomorrow for Nightmare...and also clean the library.
