//------------------------------// // How Can I Tell Her? // Story: The Curse Of The Alicorn // by Misty Skyshadow //------------------------------// THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP. Celestia paced across her bedroom, thinking furiously of what to do. What should I tell her? But I'm the princess, I can tell her. OH, but it would break her heart if I told her! Ugh, what should I do!? Think Celestia THINK! GRRRRRRUGH! Huh? Celestia heard a faint whisper. "Celestia?" "Who's there?" She said. "It's me," the voice said. "Your sister?" It said again. "Huh?" Celestia said finally getting out of her head. "Hello? Your sister, Luna?" Luna said. "Oh, sorry Luna, I was kind of- In your head?" Luna finished her sentence for her sister. "Yeah. Your right, I zoned out a bit there didn't I?" She said. . "Yeah, you did for a really long time." Luna said. "What? How long?!" She said. "Well, I counted and if my calculations are correct, you have been pacing and zoning in your head for about six hours." Luna said calmly like nothing was wrong. "I WHAT!" She said freaking out. "Yeah, and don't forget sunset in twelve minutes!" Luna said, as she trotted off to her room where then, she would raise the moon after her elder sister. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Celestia's eye twitched, as she thought about those six hours, she had spent, thinking about one single question alone: What to tell Twilight Sparkle? The clock chimed in her bedroom chambers, which told her that it was time to lower her beautiful sun in to the heavens again. Then once she had lowered her sun, Luna raised her also beautiful moon across the land of Equestria, into the night. Celestia sighed. She didn't know what to do now, wheather to tell Twilight, or to not tell Twilight. She couldn't decide right off, but she would eventully think of at least one idea. And before she realized it she was very sleepy all of a sudden. So, she untucked her covers and sheets, and walked over to her balcony, where her sister stood. "Goodnight Luna, and watch the night." She said. "You as well sister, and have thou' great slumber, and, sleep well, and remember do NOT pace throughout the nighttime." Luna said smiling. "See you in the morning Luna!" Celestia said cheerfully and a little sleepy. "You as well." Was all Luna said, before she turned her gaze back across the land of Equestria. Then, Celestia, turned and walked back to her bed, and tucked herself in, and dozed off into a good nights sleep before she told her lavander alicorn Twilight Sparkle.
