When we finally got to Luna’s room she levitated me onto her dresser that had a mirror. She then headed for her bathroom to take a shower or something I don’t really know. This was the first time I was able to get a good look at myself.
I was a gold color. I had a narrow long face with round green reptilian eyes; I had long legs and a long tail, along with two small curved horns on my head. I think I’m about four inches tall. After sitting on around for about 20 minutes I heard Luna’s door open.
“What were you doing in there?”
“I was showering and brushing my teeth.”
“For 20 minutes? Who takes that long? How dirty are you?”
“I don’t need to explain my bathing habits to you.”
“Fine, whatever.” I then jumped down from Luna’s dresser and landed on her bed. “I lay claim to this bed. Where are you gonna sleep?”
“In my bed.”
“Sorry, I’ve already called dibs.”
“Sadly little lizards don’t get whole beds to themselves.”
“Then where do I sleep?”
“You can share the bed but you don’t get all of it.”
“Fine, but I get at least half, I need my space.”
Luna rolled her eyes. “Fine, goodnight Sean.” She then crawled under the covers.
I crawled under the covers and curled up.
When I woke up I kept my eyes closed for a minute. I hoped that the whole lizard thing was a nightmare. When I opened my eyes my heart sank, the sheets were huge on me so I knew I was still tiny. I climbed my way out of the bed and looked around. I was definitely still only a few inches tall. I noticed it was still dark out even though the clock in her room said it was 8 am. Looking a little more I realized Luna was gone, I listened for any sign of her when I heard what sounded like cursing outside on her balcony.
I jumped off her bed and walked over to the door to the balcony. When I got outside I saw Luna standing on her balcony trying to do some spell and glaring at the moon. After a minute her horn sparked and she fell over. She yelled a few swears and then glared at the moon again.
“Um Luna, what are you doing?”
She turned her head to look at me. She was definitely angry she looked like she wanted to kill somebody. “I’m trying to lower the moon and raise the sun in my sister’s absence but I can’t get a hold of the sun.”
“Oh, I think I may know the problem. You’re trying to treat it like the moon.”
“Of course, there can’t be much of a difference.”
“Actually there is. Celestia told me once that for the sun you have to think as though you’re lifting a fire as opposed to a
giant rock like the moon.”
“Watch yourself gecko! The moon is more than a simple rock!”
“Oh calm down Luna, I didn’t mean to insult the moon I was simply trying to help you.”
“Fine, I’ll try you’re idea.”
Luna picked herself up and looked at the horizon. She closed her eyes and her horn lit up. Then the moon began to leave view and I could see the sun coming up. Luna turned to me a giant smile on her face.
“I did it, I did it Sean!” She hopped up and down smiling.
“I know, I was here.”
“Thank you for your help.” She then levitated me towards her and gave me a tight hug.
“Luna…a…bit too … tight.” I started to feel a bit dizzy.
“Oops sorry.” She dropped me onto the ground.
“Thanks, being dropped onto the ground feels much better.”
After Luna had combed her mane and put all her armor, horse shoes, and crown on she put me on her head and we headed down to get breakfast.
“Sean I will need you to help me with all of Celestia’s everyday duties.” I was in my new usual place on her head. We were walking to the throne room.
“Well first off you need to listen to the whining of Equestria’s citizens.”
“Very well, it can’t be too bad.”
“Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
When we got to the throne room Luna headed for her throne and sat down. The usual four guards came up to the throne to tell Luna about the whiners of the day. Luckily they already knew about Celestia’s condition.
“Alright I’m ready, send the first ponies in.”
I decided that rather than listen to a bunch of whiners. So I curled up behind Luna’s crown and got ready for a nap.
“HOW DARE YOU! GET OUT NOW!” I jumped up looking around for the source of the loud voice. Until I realized it must have been Luna. Then I heard a door slam shut.
I climbed over Luna’s crown and leaned over to look into one of her eyes. “Luna what was that about?”
“SOME INSOLANT MORTAL DARED TO INSULT ME!” the force of her shout actually made me fall off her head. Luna caught me before I hit the ground but just barely. She levitated back onto her head.
“What are you talking about?”
“Some pathetic farmer pony thought the delay of the sun coming was an early attempt for my conquest of Equestria.”
“Wow, you let some filthy mortal get to you like that?”
“I know it’s not worthy of my anger but it just got to me.”
“Ok, what time is it?”
“About 11:30 in the morning.”
“Well this is typically around the time Celestia cuts things off.”
“Excellent.”
“Let’s go get lunch.”
After lunch Luna and I decided get some paperwork done. More specifically Luna did paperwork while I watched on the desk.
“Bolas Luna, you take a long time. I mean we’ve been here for at least three hours.”
“Quiet, I am trying to concentrate!”
“Fine jeez.” Luna has been pretty grumpy since that one pony implied she was going evil again.
