In the end, I found a solution for the problem, but it was an embarrassing one and I don't wanna tell you what it was. Anyway, I finally went to sleep, and I think I slept for quite a while, until I had an really disturbing dream. I saw myself laying in the bed, or rather I saw Gin's body laying in the bed, when Twilight and Spike came in, smiling wickedly both wielding weapons, a knife and a gun, don't ask me how she got a gun, it was just a dream after all, stalking to my bed.  Spike ended up standing at the right of me and Twilight on the left. She lifted the knife with her magic up and Spike hold the gun at my head and looked just ready to fire, as I stated before I was a little bit paranoid. But before one of them could make use of their weapons, or before I could try anything to stop them, they just disappeared. Faded away into thin air. I just stared at the points where they used to be and then I heard a voice behing me.

"You have quite the trust issues human." I almost jumped out of my skin and turned around, just to see another alicorn like Twilight standing before me, with a concerned look on her face. She had a dark blue colored fur, and a slightly brighter, glittery mane and horse tail, which waved like it was windy and I think it should represent the night sky or something like that. Her flank, where ink black, with the picture of a crescent on it. I didn't say anything, because I just thought she were another interpretation of Twilight from my subconcious. I mean, where should another alicorn come from so suddenly, in my dreams nonetheless, how I had just realized back then. But then I decided to play along with the game.

"And who are you?"

"We are known as Luna, Princess of the Moon and co-ruler of this land. We are responsible for our subjects dreams and, since you're here now, you're one of them too."

I don't know why, but something about this were fishy, and it was not the fact that she spoke from herself as 'We', but that didn't help either."But, aren't you any surprised at all? Twilight told me there are no humans on Equis."

She nodded."That's right, but I have seen so much in my life, that as I sensed your dream, I was surprised yes, but not that much, stranger thinks have happened here lately."

And then knew what had been odd about her."Wait wait wait, you said you were the Princess of the Moon, what does that mean?"

She looked at me surprised."Twilight didn't told you?"

"She said she would tell me tomorrow."

"Well, we are wielding the Moon, as our sister Celestia is wielding the Sun, we bring the night to the ponies of Equestria and she brings the Day."

I took a step back. That couldn't be real. This creature before we controlled the Moon? And her sister the Sun? Until that point I still believed, hoped, that she was just an imagination, a creation of my own brain. But that, something as insane as that, I could have never thought of. Granted, the sudden and extreme movement of the too celestiel bodies, was pretty insane and nonsensical too, but I...I actually didn't knew what I was expecting as an explanation from Twilight. But I am sure would have been nothing like that. She could probably erase me with that kind of power. After that thought crossed my mind, I drew my Zanpakuto and pointed it at her.

"What do you really want from me?"

She must have noticed the panic I were trying to supprese, because she gave me a soft smile, which were probably meant to calm me down.

"Do not fear us, for we wish not to harm you, we were only concerned about your wellbeing, after discovering that the nightmare you had were a really bad one."She looked at me, her expression back to concern."Do you fear Twilight and Spike really that much? We can assure you that she is one of the most trustworthy ponys you could've met."

I think she really ment what she said, but still, I didn't trust her, I didn't trusted anyone here, and I told her just that.

"Yes, I fear her, I fear her dragon and I fear you! I just came here, recently, not by my own free will but rather by some kind of force, now I have a new body I'm not used to, I don't know how I could ever come back and here, in this World nothing is like back in my world." I were still smiling, even in my dreams I had no choice, but I were sure my eyebrows looked just as furrius as I hopped."Magic, pegasi, immortal alicorns who wield the Moon and Sun and can enter dreams, dragons and giant crystal castle-tree things! I think I'm going to either become insane or just die from an brain aneurysm!"

Now she looked at me with great concern and seem to realize something just yet, probably that it had been a bad idea to enter my dreams and overwhelming me with such great information. The whole time I had swung Shinsou in all directions, as I gestured to my words, now I pointed it at her again, my voice went calm again and my smile looked a little bit more disturbing than usuall.

"So, I suggest you take your leave now, I bet there are other subjects of yours with terrible nightmares."

My words were polite, but she understood the hidden threat, even though I didn't think I could harm her, I still wanted her to leave and threats were the only thing I had to make her. She nodded slowly.

"Yes, we will leave, but we will meet later in the real world, please believe us, we were only concerned about your wellbeing."

With that she disapeared and I were finally alone again.





When I finally awoke, I immedeatly got out of the bed and looked around me. No one was there."What was I thinking?" I tried to calm myself, as I got in the bathroom and looked in a mirror, just to look at my new face again, maybe this was all nothing but a big dream after all. The same smile, the same closed eyes, the same snakelike face. I smashed the mirror with my bear fist. I didn't want to look like this! Don't get me wrong, I think Gin was still the best character I could have become. I just didn't want to be in this situation. Succesfully suppressing the pain in my hand and ignoring the blood dripping from my fingers, I walked out of the bathroom and towards the door, I needed to talk to Twilight again, I just had to know more about the world I was now living in, even if it would blow my mind. But when I opened the door, instead of an empty halllway, I found a pink pony with a canon, which were pointing right at me, the trigger right in the ponys hoof.

My Body moved faster than I could think at the moment. With one, fluid motion, which I would have never tought I could pull off, I drew Shinsou and cut the thing in half. The two canon pieces fell to the ground and I pointed my sword right at the pink mares face.

"I think the next time you're trying to assasinate someone, you should be more stealthy. And bring a smaller weapon."

I think at that point I impersonated Gin quite well, I smilled a little bit wilder, as I lifted my weapon up above my head to kill this pony. She could only stare at me, in what I assumed was shock and fear. Probably because I was able to foil her plan this quick.

However, just at the moment I wanted to bring my sword down, I were stopped. My whole body where engulfed in an purple aura and I couldn't even move a little bit anymore. My eyes however, could still move under my eyelids. So I looked around for a certain lavender alicorn and there she was, at the end of the hallway, staring at me in confusion and disbelief.

"W-what are you doing, Gin?!"

As it seemed I could still speak."What are you doing? That pink thing just wanted to kill me. I'm only returning the favor."

The mare, who didn't said anything until then, looked at the canon, which I only now realized hadn't loaded a canonball, but confetti which really confused me, looked at the broken canon and finally spoke.

"You broke my party-canon!"

Confusion seemed to be the only state I were allowed to be in in this world."What?"

Twilight came down the hallway."Pinkie would never hurt anyone, that was her party-canon you just sliced up"

That didn't helped me at all.  Twilight walked over to Pinkie, while I were released of the magic.

"Don't worry Pinkie, we will get you a new one."

But suddenly she just smiled widly, not like me, it was a joyfull, honest smile.

"Good that I brought an extra one!"

And then, out of nowhere, she just pulled a second one of these 'Party-canons'. Believe me, I saw it with my own closed eyes! She pulled the trigger and a bunch of confetti came out of the opening.

It engulfed both Twilight and me. While Twilight just snickered and began to shrug the confetti off, I just stood there.

"What."
