The reaction
I was unceremoniously awoken from my slumber by a certain celestial object which happens to emit pinpoint rays of photons that went exactly into my closed eyes. I groaned and turned away from the light trying to catch some more z’s. I had some crazy dream of me being Daybreaker, cookies, and Spike? Unfortunately, those sun rays had really done a number on my want to sleep. I groggily accepted defeat and went to check my phone. When I felt around on the nightstand, I couldn’t find it. Confused I opened my eyes and got a look at my surroundings. ‘This isn’t my room’ is the first thing that went through my mind when I got a glimpse of my surroundings. Firstly, my room wasn’t made of wood and this definitely wasn’t my bed. I move to get out of bed when I see the rest of my body.
“That wasn’t a dream…” I mutter to myself in realization. I was still Daybreaker and judging by my surroundings this was Twilights library. I needed to make sure though, so I got out of bed and walked up to the nearby window. I was still wearing the same white dress as yesterday, but something was different about my hair. It had lost its fire effect and was now only normal orange hair, the same thing happened to my tail. Confused I walked to the nearby mirror that was sitting in the corner of the room.
“Son of a…They magic blocked me!” Not that I could use magic, but it was the thought that counted. On my horn was the classic magic inhibitor ring. I didn’t want to remove it (not that I could anyway. I tried and it was stuck on there like glue) since I didn’t want to look like a threat, but I was also kind of grateful for it. Having the ring on removed the whole fire hair making me look a lot less like some type of monster and a lot more approachable. Well again as approachable one can be when you have fangs and reptilian slits for eyes, but hey it’s the little things that matter. Such as not having people be worried, I would burn them if they got too close. But having the equivalent of air in this world be taken away didn’t feel good. It felt like something important was missing from my body. Not a nice feeling let me tell you. Imagine the feeling as if your chest were suddenly hollow, but you were still alive. Yeah, it’s hard to imagine, but that’s how it felt having my magic taken away. I mean, I can’t blame them for taking precautions. Twilight did go all crazy just by seeing me, thinking that I was Nightmare Moon.
After that mystery solved, I went over to the nearby window and opened the blinds. Ponyville was different than what I expected. For one it was a lot smaller than I expected I could basically see half of town from my one window. There were lots of ponies walking around outside. It looked like any other town on Earth the difference being the people had pony characteristics such as wings, horns, and ears on the top of their heads. One thing I forgot to mention is that these ears are weird. They seem to move on their own but that could just be instinctive reactions since humans don’t have that much control of their ears, so they are just being moved by my subconscious. I just stood there observing the town for around five minutes till I was brought out of my pony watching by a rather large growl from my stomach.
Noticing that I haven’t eaten anything other than a single cookie since I arrived here, and that Luna’s cookie jar was now sitting on the stand next to the bed. Seeing this I grabbed the jar and took a cookie out and began munching on it. Deciding that I couldn’t stay in this room the whole time. I walked over to the door and left, cookie jar in tow of course as I was still hungry. When I left the room, I was greeted with an empty library. Seeing that I was alone I decided to have a look around, maybe read some books, information is the most important resource in this situation. I needed to know if they ever heard of Daybreaker or anything about the magic that brought me here, so I went to work in the library after putting my cookie jar on a nearby table and walked up to the wall of books. Unfortunately, the books I needed were quite high up to I had to reach to grab the first book that caught my attention. I was so close to grabbing it, my fingers were touching it I was so close.
“Oh, you’re awake” Came a voice from behind me.
“EEEP” I yell startled causing my wings to shoot out. Due to the sudden movement I lost my balance and fell. Right onto my butt.
“ow”
“You ok?” Asked the voice.
“Yep yep I’m good” I say standing back up turning around the voice. Turns out it was Spike. He was standing there with what looked like an emerald in his hand.
“What happened after I fell asleep?” My stomach growled still wanting something more than a cookie. “Can I also get some breakfast?” I finish with a blush.
“Sure, follow me I’ll tell ya what happened over breakfast.” He said with a chuckle motioning with his hand for me to follow him. I did just that happily after grabbing the cookie jar from the nearby table. That jar contains the cookies of the Gods, I am not leaving it unattended. Especially with Pinkie Pie in town.
Breakfast was amazing Spike can somehow make the best pancakes imaginable. And here I thought my Mom made the best pancakes, turns out I was wrong. That honor goes to Spike now. He also told me what had happened after I fell asleep also why Twilight wasn’t in the building when I woke up earlier. She had to leave quickly to go greet someone to town, didn’t say who though. But I might have an idea. Anyway, breakfast was overall fantastic we had a nice chat just talking about random stuff. Eventually the topic of comic books came up and the sparkle that appeared in Spike’s eyes hearing that somebody else also enjoyed comic books as much as he was, dare I say, beautiful. Comics are also one of my favorite things to talk about. Albeit it was my little pony comics and talked about over the internet, but they still count goddammit!
After breakfast, which I have to say again was divine, we went back into the library itself. I wanted to continue my research and Spike was there to make sure I didn’t try anything. He didn’t agree with it but had to anyway. His exact words were ‘I’ve got to keep a close eye on you. Make sure you don’t bring about eternal night *wink*’ Yes he did in fact say the word wink, with a wink.
So, there I was sitting in the library trying to find anything related to Daybreaker and portals/teleportation. Idly munching on Luna’s cookies while Spike was sitting next to me reading some power pony comics. And we sat there for roughly half an hour just quietly reading. I was currently searching through the history books, looking for anything that indicated a so-called ‘Daybreaker event’ happened at some point. And I have to say the history of this cartoon world is surprisingly deep. I was always interested in history back home so reading about this surprisingly expansive and deep history really got the inner historian in me going. And was getting really good have you ever heard of the ‘Dea So-‘
“no no no luna wait don’t-! “
*BOOM*
Then with all the subtlety of gun being shot right next to ones ear the door was (literally) Blown off its hinges. Flinging the door right into the wall of books with a dark blue beam following it. The force the door was thrown with was so strong I believe every item in the library that wasn’t nailed down either fell over or was damaged in some way. That included a lot of books.
This was all followed by the sound of one very pissed of dark blue goddess.
“WHERE ART THOU, FOUL COPY OF OUR SISTER!”
And the sound no sane person would ever want to hear from the much younger lavender goddess.
“M-my b-books.”
This chapter: *gets posted*

Does anyone get the feeling like someone is going to die next chapter? Could be just me...
10254802
Don’t give me ideas and make me go full on quintin Tarantino
Why do I have the feeling that daybreaker going to run, close a door behind her to try and put a barrier between her and the aggressor... only for luna to blast the door into splinters that critically injure daybreaker.
10254834
*cough*
I think twi is going to spaz out on luna
10254818
Don't worry ponyville isresources.tidal.com/images/5fdaef4f/3baf/40ce/8352/e0a01560c0b3/1280x1280.jpg

No Promises!!
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Twilight sparkle everyone
Uh oh
10255014
I guess you could say they really should have booked it. Queue cricket noises and the bad pun drums.
THE DAY. WILL. LAST. FOREVER! MUHAHAHA!
I don't think Daybreaker would ever go for eternal night, though. Perhaps for an eclipse, but that's it. You know, an eclipse sounds very enticing, probably should make a joke about that somewhere in the story. :D
On another note, a lot of your paragraphs are quite a bit long. A good rule of thumb is using a paragraph for one idea only, like say talking about an eclipse. Food for thought, I guess. :)
10255086
you right we need some pinkie pie parenting i only vaigly remember about 3 storys where pinkie is a mother figure to the mc
also mc is cake glutton like celestia proberbly so pinkie is good for her plus imagine a alicon with pinkie powers
10255109
Yeah, also that whole night eternal. Right now in the story, they believe her to be a color swapped NMM. Well everyone except a certain pair of princesses *wink*
My cabbages!
10255014
Yup, let's not care about the god whom of which is about to brutally murder a child
10255305
Or you know, not have anyone adopt her aside from sunbutt (maybe Luna) and bookpony since Daybreaker is sunbutt's sister or daughter (depends on story and all but this is the most realistic option I can think of off the top of my head)
Then it would be hot.
10255445
counting ... luna still doesn't know that db, has been eating her cookies.
he, he
but I think that twilight is going to be one at midnight, quickly, because of his books ruined by Luna.
chapter 5 and friday?
* bright, hopeful eyes *
RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!!
10256140
I wouldn’t get that hopeful. Me getting this chapter done was one hell of a fluke only on Friday itself will I be able to start working on the chapter so maybe Sunday or Saturday is when chapter 5 will be released.
If this was Mature rated I think you would have switched to Quentin Tarantino mode
10256643
another day or two after Friday is no problem
the problem would be if you did like other authors to abandon yourself and leave us orphans of it.
Love it!
10257857
And leave you all to suffer the same fate as jolyne before the fire?
N E V E R
I think Twilight might go Midnight Sparkle on Luna for ruing her books... and of course threatening a poor little girl.
I remember watching the clip of Daybreaker on youtube, she seemed a slight edge over Nightmare Moon power wise. She gonna be real strong when she grows up, assuming she survives after Luna finds out she has been eating from her cookie jar.
Your description has a good point. Carry on!
10275766
RUN LUNA RUN!!!
100% Bookpony is a idiot again... 100 Bits foal never left Twilights mouth

Speaking of fate. Is Spike injured? The room suffered a explosion and he was next to DB.

Counterpoint, grandmothers make the best food. And will always try to fill you up even though you're full.
I like the ending to the chapter
Also luna: WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MINE COOKIE JAR!!!!!
How did she discuss the MLP comics with Spike without giving him an existential crisis?
