Harmony opened her book looking over at Celestia and Luna making sure they were still asleep. Aha! The teleportation spell! If I learn this before Momma wakes up to raise the sun, I can surprise her! The small filly started working on the spell and by the time Celestia awoke to raise the sun she had learned it and was able to do it in the blink of an eye. She sat down with her book infront of her looking at her mother waiting for her to fully wake and notice she wasn't still sleeping beside her.
"Harmony?" Celestia asked standing up. "What are you doing out of bed? Its early a little filly like you should still be asleep."
"I wanted to surprise you for mothers day!" She smiled at her mother going over and rubbing up against her leg. "Watch!"
"I'm watching." Celestia smiled at her.
Harmony squeezed her eyes closed and in a flash she disappeared from her spot and reappeared on her mothers back. "I woke up extra early to learn the spell, so I could surprise you and make you happy!"
"Well done!" She smiled at the filly on her back. "I Need to raise the sun now."
"Can I watch Momma? I never get to because I'm asleep." Harmony jumped down from her Mothers back.
"Speaking of sleeping." Celestia looked over at Luna who was still passed out on her bed. "Your Aunt Luna is Still asleep."
"Do you want me to wake her so she can lower the moon?" Harmony asked.
"No, let her sleep, she has had many late nights keeping the nightmares from you. I can lower the moon." Celestia's horn began to glow and the moon began to lower and the sun began to rise, in a few short minutes the sun was out and the moon was gone.
"That was amazing!" Harmony yawned.
"Lets get you back to bed, school isn't for another few hours." Celestia brought the filly back over to her bed and settled her down beside Luna.
"Your coming with me to school today, right? For the mothers day Celebration."
"Of coarse I am Harmony, now get some more sleep." Celestia tucked the blanket under the filly before walking out onto the balcony.
"Time for school." Celestia woke the sleeping filly. "We dont want to be late for the celebration now do we?"
"Nope." Harmony got out of the bed, she looked back at her Aunt Luna who was still asleep. "Momma, Aunt Luna is still asleep."
"I left her a note. Besides, she knows I'm going to school with you today. Let her sleep, she deserves it." Celestia herded the lively filly out of the room closing the door quietly behind her, the two walked down to the dining room where they were served breakfast.
"All done!" Harmony announced getting down from her seat and putting her saddle bag on. "Come on! Lets go!" She galloped to the door and charged out.
"Be careful Harmony, your going a little fast." Celestia called to the Filly who was dashing around. She eventually returned to her side.
"Why is everypony bowing their heads when we walk by?" Harmony asked. "It happens every day on the way to school."
"Because Harmony, we are Princesses, it is just respectful." Celestia replied as they walked into the school.
"Howdy Winter!" AppleTwist and AppleDew said at the same time popping up from behind Apple Jack.
"Howdy Princess!" Apple Jack said to Princess Celestia, every pony's heads turned to face the Princess.
"Welcome Princess." The Teacher said. "Princess Harmony, would you like to show your mother your desk?"
"You can just call me Harmony." WinterMagic said to the teacher. "This way Momma." The Filly said leading Celestia over to the front row desk of the fourth row. "This is my Desk!"
"Its very nice." Celestia smiled looking at the nicely decorated desk.
For the whole day the Foals and their mother played games did crafts and told stories, by the time it was time to go home Both Celestia and WinterMagic were exhausted.
"Did you have fun momma?" Harmony asked as they walked back to the castle.
"Yes, it was very enjoyable." Celestia replied as they walked into the castle, two of the guards approached them.
"Princess Celestia and Princess Harmony." On said bowing a little.
"Princess Celestia." The other adressed Celestia. "Princess Luna still hasn't awoken."
Celestia looked at them. "Thats odd. She is usually always awake by now, no matter how tired she is." Celestia and Harmony walked down to Celestia's room and opened the door walking in. Celestia walked over to the bed and found a note by Luna under the Covers.
It read:
"Dear Celestia,
I'm sure by now you are wondering why your dear sister hasn't woken from her slumber. Well, lets just say its a little spell, she grows weaker by the hour, If my calculations are right, she has three days before her powers are drained and she grows ill, about an hour after she grows ill she will pass away. Now, you can try to solve the counter-spell in three days, the question is are you smart enough to do it. Or you can make it easy and give us the young Princess Harmony and we will list the spell.
Choose wisely.
The Shadows."
Celestia looked at Luna then at Harmony.
"Whats wrong with her Momma?" She asked.
"She's under a spell, we need to get to the library we only have three days!" Celestia rushed out of the room followed by the confused Filly.
"Three days to do what?"
"To save her!" Celestia replied.
Harmony stopped dead in her tracks She's dieing...The thought sent chills down her spine but at the same time motivated her to help her mother find the cure.
Celestia stopped in the Library. "Go to your room Harmony, we will be having guests tonight, your friends will be over."
"Okay but I want to help." Harmony said.
"You will help, bu for now you need to go to your room."
"Okay." Harmony walked down to her room and sat on her bed, waiting, and watching for anything to happen.
