	Little Luna ran far ahead of her sister, bouncing impatiently. She had her favorite inflatable ducky life ring around her waist, which she didn't ever want to take off. Celestia, a little bit older, was struggling to catch up. She was hauling all the important things, such as the picnic basket, blanket, and other necessities for a day at the beach.
"Luna, why don't you help by taking one of the buckets?" Celestia asked.
"No!" Luna decided.
"I'm not a donkey, Luna," Celestia warned. "It would really help if you carried something, too."
"Okay, okay!" Luna shouted, and attempted to make her way back towards Celestia. She tripped, however, and still wearing her ducky life ring meant she was essentially trapped in a large tire, and began rolling down the hill.
"Cell...LY.. I'm... com....ING...!" She said dizzily, threatening to to roll right past her sister, all the way down the hill they'd just worked so hard to climb.
Celestia dropped her things at once, and her long horn burst into life. A pink aura grabbed a hold of the younger sibling, and lifted her off the ground, all the while her legs were flailing.
"Not fair, not fair!" Luna cried.
"Would you rather have rolled all the way to Pony Town?" Celestia asked.
"...No..."
"Well then."
Celestia turned around, only to find the young and ever annoying Discord juggling all of her things in the air at once. He was wearing a ridiculous old fashioned striped bathing suit, and a little matching straw hat.
"You ladies weren't going to leave me behind, were you?"
Actually, they had been. 
"Of... course not..." Celestia lied. "We were just going to get all set up first, and then call you later."
"You're a terrible liar, Celestia," Discord said. "If you didn't want me to come, all you had to do was ask. But since you didn't, I think I'll just take all these things with me."
"Discord, that's not,"
"Ta-ta, ladies!" The young draconequus quipped, and disappeared in a flash, taking all of their picnic items with him.
"That son of a-" Celestia began.
"Son of a what?" Luna asked, being slightly lowered to the ground.
"Um..." Celestia caught herself. "A hamster.
"But Diskie's not a hamster," Luna said.
"He's part hamster. His mother was a hamster, and his father smelt of elderberries."
Luna giggled.
"Now come on, we've the whole day ahead of us!"
---
Once in the water of the popular Lake Hayrule, Celestia made sure Luna was snug in her ducky life ring. The filly also had inflatable water wings on her front hooves, and was perfectly happy to splash and go charging after small fish which swam underneath her.
"Now, Luna, I'm going to go tell Discord a thing or two about taking things that don't belong to him. Do you see him, right there?"
Luna kept splashing and laughing.
"Luna! Do you see Discord?"
"Uh huh."
"I'm going to be right there for just a moment, and I'll have my eye on you the whole time. So stay right here, alright? I'm only going to be a few feet away while I get our things back. He took our things, and you know what that makes him right?"
"A meanie!" Luna answered.
"Right!" Celestia gave her sister a fond look, and charged off towards Discord's nearby position.
HISSSSSS.
Luna stopped splashing, her ears pinning back. "Tia?" She asked hesitantly.
HISSSSSS.
Luna slowly turned around, finding herself muzzle to beak with the biggest goose she'd ever seen. Luna had no idea where it had come from, it'd just sort of... appeared. They had a tendency to do that.
The little filly slowly paddled backwards, and the goose paddled forwards.
"Tia!" Luna called.
Celestia stopped what she was doing and looked over, a worried expression turning into a smile. "Aw, look, it must think you're another bird!" She said. "I think it likes your ducky, Luna!"
Luna frowned and glared at the goose. "My ducky," she said.
The goose spread its wings and let out another demonic hiss, charging towards Luna.
Luna screamed and paddled backwards until her hooves hit the sandy beach, the goose right behind her.
Celestia was on her hooves instantly as soon as Luna screamed, glaring at Discord. "Don't think we're done here," she warned.
Discord grinned. "Why, dear Celestia, I wouldn't dream of it."
The elder sibling ran towards her sister, hugging her protectively.
"I think it wants your ducky, Luna," Celestia said quietly. "It feels threatened."
"No!" Luna protested. "Mine!"
"Yes, I know its yours, but I don't think it's going to give up that easily. I'll get you another ducky."
"But I like this one!"
The goose hissed at them again with such severity that Celestia fired a harmless blast of light at it. The goose squawked and covered its eyes with its wings.
"Now, Run!" Celestia said, taking Luna and running past another sunbathing, brown coated stallion who peered up at them through red and blue glasses.
"That's my line," he said, before closing his eyes again.
Luna and Celestia ran across the beach, Celestia taking a cautious look behind them to see the goose chasing them, though far behind. They ran up a small hill and around several bushes.
"I think we lost it," Celestia said. 
Luna tapped Celestia's shoulder, and Celestia turned around.
They had run right into the nesting area of at least a dozen other geese, all of whom were spreading their wings out aggressively.
"I'm sorry, Luna," Celestia apologized, before yanking the inflatable ducky ring from around Luna's waist. Luna immediately started crying.
Celestia threw the ring into the nest, where it was immediately pounced upon by the birds and torn to shreds.
Celestia took hold of her sister and ran back the way they had come, but quickly found the path blocked by the first goose who had been harassing Luna.
The goose spread its wings and hissed at them, but Celestia planted her front hooves on the ground and bucked it firmly in the face with her back legs, sending the honking creature stumbling backwards.
"Geese are the devil," Celestia muttered, before looking at her little sister.
"You want ice cream, Luna?" she asked.
Luna wiped her tears and nodded. "Uh huh."
"Good." She marched over to Discord, and  gave him a look. "You're buying my sister an ice cream," she said.
"Nah," Discord shrugged.
Celestia gave him The Stare. "That wasn't a suggestion," she hissed.
"You know, I think I suddenly want an ice cream," Discord said. "Maybe I'll get a few extra." He darted off and off to the kiosks nearby, so Luna and Celestia took their positions on the blanket.
"I hate geese," Luna said.
"Me too, Luna," Celestia agreed. "Me too."
