//------------------------------// // Headache // Story: Luna's Dream Adventures // by Moonlit Path //------------------------------// "Who cares" "Pinkie you have been inside all day, you need to get out." "Didn't you hear me Celestia? I said who cares." Pinkie whispered laying in her bed, trying to hide under the her blanket. "Princess Twilight needs our help. The elements won't work without laughter, that is you Pinkie." Celestia said shaking the pink pony trying to annoy her enough that she would get out of bed. "Stop calling me Pinkie, my name is Pinkamena. Also why do you keep trying to force laughter on me? I'm not allowed to laugh." She tried going further under her blanket only to be blocked by a giant hoof. "You are the element of magic, you can not choose destiny." "You are as stubborn as a rock!" Celestia yelled using her magic to pull the blanket off of Pinkie, flipping her onto the ground in the process. It was then they noticed the light. "Princess!" Celestia exclaimed bowing. "Tia, what are you doing?" Luna asked very amused "and where did your wings go?" "I am trying to get Pinkie to come help us and Princess Twilight, but she is refusing. We can't stop Spike from eating Equestria unless we have all of the Elements." Celestia explained bowing to Luna. "Also I am a unicorn, not a alicorn. Why would I have wings?" she asked very confused "Pinkie Pie, aren't you the element of Laughter?" Luna walked over to help her get up off the floor, but Pinkie just laid there like she was getting ready to go to sleep. "No, I am just a simple rock farm pony, who just wants to be alone. I don't know who told you I am, but I am not the element of laughter." Pinkie groaned. "Now please go away!" "Not until you come help us stop Spike the dragon!" Celestia yelled "Celestia, I thought that laughter was you favorite element after magic. So why is the element of laughter so depressed?" Luna put her arm around Celestia, and guided her to the bed to sit down. "I don't know. She isn't acting like herself, I'm starting to get scared. Maybe there is something in one of my books!" Celestia jumped up and started going to the door. "Sit back down." "But!" the minute Celestia saw Lunas glare she sat back down. "You aren't acting like yourself either, you are acting more like Twilight Sparkle." "I am acting like my teacher? I supposed it makes since, we did spend a lot of time together." A white light formed around the white pony for a moment, and shrunk from her normal size to Twilights height. "No, you are the Princess. Twilight is your student." Luna explained. It was then she noticed Pinkie had disappeared and chuckled. "Even depressed, she can still move without being seen." "Yep that is Pinkie for you." with that they both started laughing. "Luna, what is going on? Why aren't you worried about Spike, he is out there eating ponies." "You are dreaming. I came to help. Can you tell me what happened before you fell asleep? "Would before I fell asleep, feel like a dream in the dream world? "Very similar" Luna admitted. The dream world was very confusing, it was like the opposite of reality while being a form of reality. "I was at a Pinkie Pie party during my visit to Ponyville, and I drank some of the punch with Twilight and Pinkie. I got really tired, and that is all I remember." Celestia explained while trying to remember anything else that could be useful "So, someone spiked the punch?" Luna asked wondering who would drug her sister "Who would spike the punch?" Celestia started running to the door like she had a idea "Where are you going?" "To my library! I need to find out what could have done this." And with that Celestia disappeared. "Oh this is going to be a long night." Luna told herself before walking in the direction of the library. "I can't find anything!" Celestia yelled throwing the book into the huge pile in the middle of the room "I still need Pinkie to help stop Spike also. I wonder if Applejack has anymore juice. He seemed to like it in my dream, maybe Pinkie will too." "Celestia?" The white pony turned around at the sound of Lunas voice. "Yes princess?" "Did Applejack have her family's famous cider?" Celestia thought for a moment. "It could have been, I am not positive though because he snuck it before making the punch. When he was done he was acting very funny." Luna could only face hoof while groaning. "I swear sister, I know you like to party, but if you notice a BABY dragon sneaking alcohol, you should stop him." "How was I supposed to know! He technically is only a few years younger then the Princess, so he should be able to handle it." Celestia tried to argue back, even though she knew it was pointless. "Sister, remember that dragons age differently then ponies do. For every twenty years in pony time, is one year in dragon time. I know you never liked dragons, but even you should know that." Luna yelled back before taking a deep breath to calm down. "Ok, we know that a drunk Spike may have added something to the punch that knocked you out, but why are you in Twilight Sparkles like, and why was Pinkie Pie so depressed? Not to mention the giant rampaging dragon who is eating ponies." "I don't know" Celestia fell to the floor and covered her eyes with her hooves and Luna heard soft sobs. "Celestia, I know you don't understand, it is hard to in a dream, but I need you to stay focused." Luna cooed going over and draping a wing around the unicorn. "Thanks princess. Is there anything you can do? I know it is a dream, but I still don't want Spike eating ponies. Princess Twilight would be furious if she found out I was just standing around talking while ponies are dying." "Celestia, I am going to do something, and I need you to trust me." Luna finally told her giving up. Helping her sister in her dreams were near impossible. "Ok, if it means you can help." Celestia pulled away and looked at Luna like she was about to do something illegal. Luna left. "Sorry Tia, it is the only way." Luna teleported to Surgarcube corner. It was there she noticed Celestia, Twilight, Pinkie Pie, and Spike passed out on the floor of the main room, Applejack sleeping in the kitchen, and the others were gone. "Wake up sleepyheads" Luna cooed shaking everypony but Spike and AJ. "What happened?" Twilight asked slowly waking up "My head feels funny." Pinkie said frowning before hiding her head under a table cloth. Luna looked at the two and smiled before trying to wake her sister again. "I will explain what I know as soon as this one wakes up." After ten minutes of them trying to wake her up Twilight smiled and got a bucket of ice water. "I have always wanted to do this." and with that the freezing cold water soaked the helpless alicorn. "How is she still sleeping after that?" Luna asked very concerned. "Wait we are going about this the wrong way." "What do you mean princess?" Twilight asked wondering what could possibly wake her up. "Tia, come get some cake before I eat it all!" Luna shouted Celestia shot straight up, hitting her head on the table. "Coming! You better save me a........" "About time you woke up." Luna laughed noticing how frazzled Celestia looked. "Ok, she is awake, now can you tell us what happened?" Twilight asked impatiently "What I know, Spike got drunk and added something to the punch that knocked you out." Luna deadpanned "We were all drunk to be honest, but I didn't know Spike was here. I left him back in the library." Twilight asked looking at the sleeping dragon. "How did you know we were here?" "Dream magic. Also Celestia can you explain why Pinkie Pie was depressed?" "Because she is a angry drunk, and gets depressed. I had to hold her in my magic before her and Applejack started a fight." Celestia explained "That explains a few things. Now if you don't mind, it has been a long night." and with that everypony said goodnight, before going home. Leaving a sleeping Spike and Applejack, knowing never wake them up after having a few too many, or in Spikes case, any. Dear journal Today I learned that when a baby dragon has a drink, he might accidently drug some of the most important people in Equestria. I also learned that no pony can wake my sister unless they have cake. If you don't then you have a very upset princess. I need to go bake a cake now. Hopefully tomorrow will be easy.
