Chapter 31- Wake Up Call

"Five minutes, Princess Celestia. I don't want to go back to Magic School yet," Sunset moaned in his sleep. The others giggled.

"I didn't know Sunset is a sleep-talker," Trixie snickered.

"Says the one who said she would perform for peanut-butter crackers with Princess Celestia," Starlight giggled.

"Says the pony who snores so loud that she convinced her old village they were attacked by bears every night," Trixie shot back.

The group were preparing for the show and all were rearing to go. However, one certain unicorn didn't have to energy to stay focused. Sunset had a long day when Twilight found out what they did, and Sunset paid the team the ultimate sacrifice. She was currently sleeping at an awkward angle, mouth wide open and some drool coming out. She looked peaceful whilst her friends observe her in quiet.

"What did Twilight do to Sunset?" Tempest asked as she observed the sleeping form of Sunset in her seat.

"Twilight made her sit through a lecture on the dangers of cross-dimensional travel and the instability of one being on the other side, and you know how long Twilight can go into these talks," Starlight explained, "Believe me, you don't want to be in the way when Twilight is in her zone of egghead stuff, as Rainbow puts it."

"Let's pony-up!" Sunset said softly as she punched the air. The others giggled at her with amusement.

"And now she's dreaming of saving the world again," Starlight chuckled behind a hoof.

"Should we wake her up or not?" Tempest asked, "I mean, it's funny to she her like this and we get to hear some secrets that we can use, as well as that she needs a break from that lecture. However, we need to get this show on the road."

"I feel that we should let her be," Starlight suggested, "She took one for the team whilst we fled. Anyway, we can entertain ourselves with what she says."

"What do you want from me?" Sunset muttered, her hoofs pretending to play a video game, "Tell me what you need."

"And know she's playing a video game, like the one she showed us earlier," Tempest giggled, "She must be into her games."

"Apparently so," Starlight explained, "She talks to me about her friends playing together, like Rise of Tirek that she showed us."

"Yes!" Sunset proclaimed, startling the others and punched the air, "I have reached the next level!"

The others laughed at that.

"Definitely like Trixie dreaming about how Great and Powerful she is," Starlight said, pretending that Trixie wasn't in the room. Trixie shot her a glare.

"Calm yourself, oh Great and Powerful one," Tempest comforted her, "Even I talk in my sleep as well." The other two looked at her with incredulous looks.

"Grubber caught me sleep-talking about fizzy drinks one time. I always had a preference with fruity flavours for some reason," Tempest's ears were splayed back and a small blush crept upon her face.

"Don't worry," Trixie reassured, "We all have cravings in her sleep. Imagine what Pinkie Pie dreams of."

"Actually, I don't want to know what goes on in that pink mare's head," Starlight shivered.

"Ditto," Tempest with a strange look, "Sunset's ability is that when she touch's them, she can see and feel what they are thinking. I wonder if she's done it to Pinkie Pie yet in her world?"

"Let's ask her!" Trixie said as she stepped towards her.

"What are you doing?" Tempest asked.

"Watch this," Trixie snickered, "Sunset! Canterlot High is in danger as rogue magic is on the loose again!" Sunset jerked awake with pure horror on her face!

"What?! Where?! Do I need to pony up?!" Sunset looked around with panic. Her eyes lay on Trixie and she gave her colleague her hard glare.

"Let us never speak of that again," Sunset simple said.

"Trixie's mouth is sealed," Trixie zipped her mouth is a hoof, but turned to Starlight, "Everypony will hear about this." Starlight just rolled her eyes.

"What do you want?" Sunset groaned, "You guys abandoned me to face Twilight's egghead wrath! Where was the loyalty?"

"Trixie just wanted to know what it was like when you touched Pinkie Pie and saw what goes on in her head," Trixie said in the first person.

Silence...

Then Sunset screamed and ran to the door. The others looked at her trail of dust.

"It can't be that bad, right?" Trixie asked the others.
