A Sleepless Week

View Online

It was nighttime in Ponyville and everypony was liking what the night has to offer. Beautiful stars twinkling in the night sky, the moon shining it's light down, and all the fun activities you can do at night. At first the ponies would only sleep the night away, but not anymore. You see the ponies are getting ready for a special event that happens at night: The Star Gaze Festival. It was a special event that happens once a year at night where you can see and enjoy the stars. And when everyone was done helping they would all head home and sleep to rest up. As morning came in everypony was up and ready to go. Even Equestria's greatest heroes: The Mane Six. Their names are Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Twilight Sparkle with her assistant Spike. But today something was wrong. Usually Twilight was with her friends but she isn't.

"Hey where's Twilight? I thought she meet us here for breakfast." Applejack said.

"I don't know. But if I would know Twilight is that she is possibly getting ready." Rarity said.

"Yeah maybe your right." Applejack said.

15 minutes went by but still no sign of Twilight. But what did come their way was a little purple dragon with green scales. The girls were happy to see him when he came to them.

"Oh Spike. Were glad to see you." Fluttershy said as she hugged him. "Do you know where Twilight is? She was supposed to meet us for breakfast." She asked.

"Yeah. And I'm getting inpatient!!" Rainbow Dash said.

"Rainbow Dash! Please calm yourself." Rarity said.

"Yeah. It isn't like that Twilight was taken late at night and is in the Everfree Forest!" Pinkie said

The girls gave her confused looks. They knew that Twilight would not go in the Everfree Forest at night. So why would she think that? But again it's Pinkie being crazy.

"Uh sorry girls." Pinkie said as they turned to Spike.

"Well anyways girls Twilight wasn't acting like her normal self. She's been a little...how do I say? Sleepless. She's been up for a week preparing for The Star Gaze Festival and hasn't gotten any sleep." Spike said.

"Oh dear. We need to go check on her." Fluttershy said.

"Yeah! Let's go!" Rainbow Dash said.

So the girls went to Twilight's castle to see if she was okay. Rarity knocked on the door but she didn't answer. But Spike knew it inside and out and got in the castle to let his friends in. Inside they looked all around for Twilight. 20 minutes went by and they couldn't find her. Suddenly Pinkie found her in the bedroom all tired and looked like a zombie.

"Girls I found her!!" Pinkie said and the girls came to the room.

"Oh hi girls." Twilight said sleepy.

"Twilight. Are you okay? You look like you haven't slept at all." Rarity said.

"I'm fine Rarity. Just need some more preparations for the festival." Twilight said.

She went to get the preparations but crashed her face into the bookshelf. Then she looked down under the table but hit her head and groaned in pain.

"Boy. You must really be tired." Rainbow said.

"Twilight this is not good for you. You seriously need some sleep. You can't keep staying up all night. We know you want to prepare for the festival but you can't if your this tired." Applejack said.

"She's right Twilight. We gotta help you rest up." Spike said.

"Spike I'm okay really. I just need some more time to prepare and...." She said but fell try fighting to fall asleep.

"We better get her to Celestia." Spike said and the others agreed.

The girls got on a train and arrived at Canterlot. In the castle all the princesses were there. The main ruler Celestia, her younger sister Luna, and Twilight's old foalsitter Cadence. They were discussing the situation that Twilight is in and needed to help her right now.

"Oh dear. This is quite a problem. Twilight's not feeling good in this condition. She really has to rest for 3 days for the festival." Celestia said.

"But Celestia. I'm fine really. See? I'm okay." Twilight said but wobbled to stay on her hooves.

"Twilight your not okay. Your condition is unstable. You need to rest up and not stay up so late." Luna said.

"She's right Twilight. You remember what happened last time when you were tired from staying up 3 days preparing for the summit? Spike had to fill in for you as role of Princess. Now your doing the same thing. You have to rest up and not keep thinking about the Star Gaze Festival going wrong." Cadence said.

"But I'm okay really Cadence." Twilight said but wobbled to the ground. "Okay maybe I do need a little help."

"Wise choice Twilight. Girls thank you for telling us the situation. You may leave us." Celestia said

The girls all left the castle all the princesses were all left alone. They begin to think of solutions to solve the problem.

"So sister. Is there any way that you can enter the dream realm and stop Twilight from thinking that the festival would get ruined again?" Celestia asked.

"Well I'm not sure I can. Anytime she gets a bad thought she would do anything to rid of it." Luna said.

They kept thinking for 30 minutes but nothing came. Then all of suddenly Luna had a spark in her head meaning she had an idea.

"But I have something. Remember when we called the Ghostbusters to stop Sombra? Well maybe we can summon someone who knows how to solve issues on how to sleep." Luna said.

"An excellent idea sister." Celestia said.

The trio went to the basement and got out a crystal ball. It was used for times that they need outside help that isn't in Equestria. She raised her hooves and some smoke came in the crystal ball forming something.

"Crystal of Starswirl. We seek help on those who know how to sleep better. Heed our bidding, heed our call. Show us thy face and what they do!"

The crystal ball formed something and showed 4 cute animals in pajamas. They were a dog, a duck, a cow and a horse. They all were singing and dancing. It also showed them in solving problems on sleeping better. There was one time it showed them in the sea overcoming a fear of an octopus which is something not to be scared of. Another time showed them in the night sky and figure out ideas to sleep better without thinking bad things. Finally it showed them in the forest showing that there is ways to stand up to a bully without violence. The vision ended up with them singing who they were and the vision disappeared.

"Aww. They were so cute. Especially those cute pajamas they were wearing." Cadence said.

"Yes they were. They also showed how to sleep better in different situations they got in. They might be the ones to help Twilight get the rest she needs." Luna said.

"That is a great idea sister. But how shall we contact them?" Celestia asked.

"I will send them a message tonight and inform them. It's time to meet these...Pajanimals." Luna said.

Assigned by a Princess

In a wonderful neighborhood laid a house all white with a red roof. Inside we cut to a bedroom filled with all sorts of toys and games. This was the bedroom of none other than the Pajanimals. Coming in was the Pajanimals themselves. Apollo: a green dog with a purple nose, wearing space pajamas the same color. Squacky: a blue duck with blue hair, wearing dark blue pajamas with yellow polka dots. Cowbella: a girl cow with purple spots and hair, wearing the same color pajamas with pink and white linings. And finally Sweet-Pea Sue: A orange girl horse with pink hair, wearing a lovely flower nightgown. They all came back from a fun day wearing some star souvenirs they got from a party.

"Wow gang that was some party we were at!!" Apollo said.

"I know! My favorite was listening to the lovely music and dancing under the stars." Cowbella said dancing like a ballerina

"Well my favorite was doing the activities, like making our own star." Sweet-Pea Sue said as she held a star she made. It was decorated with glitter and stickers. It even has a big smile.

"Nice star. And my favorite was doing the night games like Star Ball!" Squacky said as he held a ball in star patterns.

"Well my favorite was hearing all the stories about the night. I tell you guys they were the best I ever listened too." Apollo said as he and his friends were all happy about today's events.

"Yes. It was Squack tacular!!" Squacky said as the others laughed.

Suddenly the door opened and the Pajanimals looked seeing their mother who we can't see. But we knew that she was smiling at her children.

"Well Pajanimals I'm glad you all had a good time. Anyways it's five minutes til bedtime. Go get all nice and clean in a warm bath." The mother said.

"Ok mom." The Pajanimals said and the door closed.

They made their way to the bathroom and hopped in the bath. When that happened they begin to sing about taking a bath

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=R73agJ2cxLY&pp=ygUecGFqYW5pbWFscyBiYXRodHViIGJvb2dpZSBzb25n

They were all having a good time in the bath because they know it's fun to get clean. When they finished the song they got out and walked back into the bedroom.

"Well guys that was fun." Apollo said.

"Yep it sure was. But you know what else can be fun?" Cowbella said.

"What?" The others asked in unison.

"Making a wish on the first star we see tonight." Cowbella said.

"Oh your right Cowbella. Come let's all make a wish." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

They went to their bedroom window and saw the first star glowing in the night sky. Together they held hands, closed their eyes, and made a wish.

"Starlight, star bright, first star we see tonight, we wish we may, we wish we might, have the wish we wish tonight." The Pajanimals said together.

They opened their eyes and saw the star twinkle in the night. They released hands and looked at each other smiling happily knowing they made the same wish.

"I know we made a good wish and hope it comes true." Apollo said.

"Us too." The others said.

Then the door opened again knowing their mom reminding them it's now time for sleep.

"Ok Pajanimals. It's bedtime." The mother said.

"Ok mom." The Pajanimals said as they went to their beds.

The sun went down bringing out the the moon. And we cut seeing all the Pajanimals in their beds all cozy and warm. Sweet-Pea Sue has her Daisy Puff, Cowbella has her unicorn, and Squacky has his blanket.

"Goodnight Pajanimals sleep tight. See you in the morning light." The mother said.

"Goodnight mom." The Pajanimals said as the light was turned off and they fell fast asleep.

Suddenly after 5 minutes they felt a slight breeze taking over the room waking them up. They didn't know where it was coming from and saw a blue light shining in a ball.

"Squacky did you leave the window open?" Cowbella asked.

"No Cowbella." Squacky answered.

"Then where's that wind coming from?" Sweet-Pea Sue asked.

"And more importantly where did that light come from? None of us have a night light." Apollo said.

They got their answer as the light glowed more bright and took the form of Princess Luna. The Pajanimals stared in awe as they see her in an astral form. Cowbella who loved unicorns was excited more than the others.

"Oh my goodness! It's a ailicorn! She is so beautiful. I love that mane decorated in stars." Cowbella said.

"I must be dreaming. I'm seeing an ailicorn in our room." Apollo said as he pinched himself but he was wide awake.

"Nope I'm awake." Apollo said.

"Wow. Were in the presence of a ailicorn." Squacky said.

"Good evening little ones." Luna said.

The Pajanimals were surprised that she can talk. But not wanting to be rude they decided it's best to go with the flow.

"Good evening to you too miss." Cowbella said.

The others greeted the ailicorn as well.

"Are you by chance Apollo, Squacky, Cowbella, and Sweet-Pea Sue of the Pajanimals I presume?" Luna asked.

"Yes ma'am. We are indeed the Pajanimals." Apollo answered.

"That's right. And we are so surprised to meet you. You look so beautiful." Sweet-Pea Sue commented.

Luna smiled. "Thank you. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Princess Luna. The ruler of the night. Plus it's my duty to go into one's dreams." She said.

"Whoa." The Pajanimals said.

"That's amazing." Apollo said.

"And she's a princess. That's even more amazing." Cowbella said.

"I thank you for your comments. But let me explain why I came to you all. I believe that you kids solve issues on sleeping better correct?" Luna said.

"Yes we do miss Luna. We do indeed have that talent." Squacky said.

"Wonderful. Because I need your help. We have a problem in our fair land." Luna said.

"You do?" Cowbella said as Luna nodded yes. "Well what is it?" She asked.

"In our kingdom of Equestria one of our subjects is having trouble sleeping. She spend a week preparing for a special event were having and now is refusing to get some sleep. She is in bad condition and if it continues she won't be able to enjoy the fun. I call upon you because I believe you can help her get the rest she needs. I ask you four this: Will you help us make sure she rests and not stay up late?" Luna said.

The Pajanimals all thought for a moment and gave her the answer.

"Yes we will Luna." Apollo said.

"Whoever it is we will make sure she rests for this event of yours." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"Thank you Pajanimals. We will be so grateful to you." Luna said.

"But there's one question. How do we get to Equestria?" Cowbella asked.

"Not to worry. Simply hop on Cowbella's bed and I will open a portal. It will take you straight to Equestria. I will meet you once you arrive. Fare thee met, and fare thee well." Luna said as her form disappeared.

"Well you heard her. Let's hop on Cowbella's bed." Apollo said.

The Pajanimals all got on her bed and was prepared for another adventure.

"Ready?" Cowbella said.

"Ready!" The others said.

"Let's bundle up!" Cowbella said as the bed rose and made it's way to the portal that opened up.

"Snuggle up!!" Squacky said.

"Huggle up!!" Apollo said.

"And go!!" Sweet-Pea Sue said as they all entered the portal.

In the portal the bed transformed into a princess carriage taking the Pajanimals to Equestria. They enjoyed the ride til they reached the end. The portal opened and they landed in Canterlot. They got out and looked around. Since it was still night it made the scenery more pretty.

"Oh wow. A real town of ponies. It's so beautiful." Cowbella said.

"I know right? It's amazing. But we need to find Luna. Where is she?" Apollo said.

He got the answer as a blue light shined and appeared Luna. She stood tall and graceful and the Pajanimals looked at her with happy smiles.

"Princess Luna." The Pajanimals said.

"Welcome Pajanimals to Canterlot. The most beautiful place in all of Equestria." Luna said.

"It's amazing Luna. Now who's the pony we need to help?" Squacky said.

"I would love to answer your questions. But it can wait til morning. Lemme offer you a stay to the castle to sleep." Luna said.

"We would love that. Lead the way." Apollo said.

She led the Pajanimals to Canterlot Castle and it was lovely on the outside. On the inside their was so much more to see. Stained colored windows telling legends, and all the details inside the castle. She then led them to a bedroom where they can sleep for the night.

"Goodnight Pajanimals. I will see you in the morning." Luna said.

"Goodnight." They said as Luna closed the door.

"All right guys. Let's get some sleep. We got a big day tomorrow." Apollo said.

The others agreed and went to their beds and went to sleep. But tomorrow is a big day. Cause they will help a certain purple ailicorn get the sleep she needs.

Meeting the Ponies

Morning came around as the sun rose waking everypony up for a new day. In the castle the Pajanimals were still sleeping til the sunlight hit them waking them up. They all yawned and got out of their beds. Then right on cue Luna came in and greeted them.

"Morning Pajanimals. Did you sleep well?" Luna said.

"We did Luna. Thanks for letting us stay." Apollo said.

"Your very welcome. Now come downstairs. Breakfast awaits." Luna said.

"Ok. Come on gang." Squacky said.

Luna led them to the dining hall in the castle. When they arrived they were greeted with all sorts of breakfast. There was pancakes, cereal, eggs, potatoes, and milk. All ready for eating. At the table there was another ailicorn sitting at the table enjoying her breakfast. She has a mane of blue, green and pink. She also has a sun cutie mark. She saw the Pajanimals and gave them a warm smile. It was Princess Celestia.

"Well hello. You must be the Pajanimals my sister mentioned." Celestia said.

"Ah yes. Pajanimals I like you to meet my older sister Princess Celestia. She raises and lowers the sun. While my job is to raise and lower the moon." Luna said.

The Pajanimals were surprised hearing that they can raise and lower the sun and moon.

"Hi. I'm Apollo." He said.

"I'm Squacky."

"I'm Cowbella."

"And I'm Sweet-Pea Sue."

"Well it's nice to meet you. I trust that you 4 can help my faithful student get the rest she needs for the Star Gaze Festival?" Celestia said.

"Yes we can Celestia. Luna informed us about the situation. So who's the pony that needs help?" Cowbella said.

"Ah yes. Lemme inform Twilight's friends that you are here. And send a message to Cadence. Then I will explain the situation to you all." Celestia said.

"Okay." The Pajanimals said as they got their breakfast and ate.

Meanwhile on the train was Twilight and her friends making their way to Canterlot. They were discussing that whoever Celestia and Luna summoned will help Twilight rest better. Spike looked concerned about Twilight. He knew that has happened before and he wanted to make sure it didn't happen again.

"I hope whoever Celestia and Luna summoned will help Twilight." Spike said.

"We hope so too Spike. She still doesn't look good." Fluttershy said as she saw Twilight struggling to stay awake.

An hour passed and they have arrived to Canterlot. They made their way to the castle and headed inside. They walked down to the throne room where Celestia and Luna awaited their arrival. They showed warm smiles seeing their heroes but knew Twilight still needed help.

"Girls. Were glad you can make it." Celestia said.

"We came as soon as we can Princess. So who's gonna help Twilight?" Rarity said.

"Glad you asked. Come out little fellas. I want you to meet the girls." Luna said signaling the Pajanimals to come out.

The girls saw the Pajanimals come to them and stared with excitement. It was the first time seeing cute animals in pajamas. But Fluttershy who loved animals was more happy to see them.

"Aww. Look at the cute animals in pajamas. Don't you look adorable." Fluttershy said as the Pajanimals blushed.

"Well i'll be. It's not everyday we see animals in PJs." Applejack said.

"Yeah!! I wonder if they love parties?" Pinkie said.

"Pinkie. Let's not ask too much questions now. Save the parties for later." Rainbow said.

"Well I love the style their pajamas have. Especially the cow's." Rarity said.

"Thanks miss. That was very nice of you." Cowbella said.

The girls were shocked that they can talk. But Luna gave them a look knowing that she is perfectly fine with this. Knowing that they kept calm and went with the flow.

"Girls I like you to meet the Pajanimals. They are Apollo, Squacky, Cowbella, and Sweet-Pea Sue. They are the ones going to help Twilight." Celestia said.

"Oh so you kids are gonna help Twilight?" Fluttershy said.

"Yes. Luna knew that we can solve any issue on sleeping better. But who's Twilight?" Squacky said.

The answer came to them as Twilight wobbled her way to them. She was more tired and sleepy than ever. She almost fell down til Apollo and Squacky caught her.

"Whoa!!" Apollo and Squacky said.

"Easy, easy. We got you." Squacky said helping Twilight back up.

"Oh dear. Is she okay?" Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"Yeah. She's not looking so good from the lack of sleep." Cowbella said.

"I'm afraid that she isn't going be ok if this keeps up. She has been up really late for a week getting ready for the Star Gaze Festival. We hope that you Pajanimals can help Twilight stop thinking about the festival going wrong so she can sleep better." Celestia said.

"But girls. I am 100% okay." Twilight said but fell down and groaned in pain trying to get up.

"Twilight maybe you should let those Pajanimals help you. Can you really help her in time for the event?" Applejack said.

"We will try. But we gotta ask. What exactly is the Star Gaze Festival?" Apollo said.

"The Star Gaze Festival is an event that occurs once a year. On this special night we can see the stars shine in the sky and enjoy the night." Luna said.

"Oh. That's amazing. But we have to get Twilight all rested up. It reminded like the time I ate all that candy and couldn't go to sleep at that time." Cowbella said.

"You ate a lot of that candy and couldn't sleep?" Pinkie said.

"Yes." Cowbella admitted. "But this isn't like the last time." She said.

"She's right. Now back on the subject. We need to help Twilight rest. What im thinking is maybe we can shake all the sleepiness out of her body. That way she'll feel so tired that she'll fall asleep." Squacky said.

"Not a bad idea Squacky. But how will you shake the sleepiness out of her body?" Rarity said.

"Easy! We'll shake it out by bouncing!! But we need everyone's help." Squacky said.

"Count us in!! I love bouncing!!" Pinkie said.

"Ok girls. When I start the music let's all bounce around and help Twilight shake all that sleepiness out. Ready? Here we go!" Squacky said as some music began to play and a song started.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2Jyb5dYfaIs&pp=ygURcGFqYW5pbWFscyBib3VuY2U%3D

The Pajanimals and the ponies all bounced around and sang along with them. They all had a fun time bouncing and even Twilight joined in. It was going well and it looked like she was starting to sleep. But Twilight still struggled to stay awake. They kept bouncing and singing til they were all tired and fell to the ground laughing thus ending the song.

"Wow!! That was so much fun!!" Pinkie said.

"Yep! Sometimes when I couldn't sleep this is what I do." Squacky said.

"That was fun Squacky. But I don't think it worked for Twilight." Applejack said.

She pointed out to Twilight who was still sleepless. She felt her head being all dizzy and slammed her face into the wall. Then she tripped on the floor and groaned in pain again. She got up rubbing her head. The Pajanimals realize that they need another idea to help Twilight.

"Ok so all that bouncing didn't work." Apollo said.

"But it was a good try Squacky." Cowbella said.

"Thanks. But maybe we need a way to help Twilight stopping thinking about the festival." Squacky said.

"Yeah. Because if she keeps thinking about it then she'll never get to sleep." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"Exactly Sweet-Pea Sue. So Pajanimals do you know a place where we can help Twilight forget about bad thoughts?" Celestia said.

"Yes we do! Celestia if you will excuse us we got to discuss something." Apollo said as he and the other Pajanimals went into the other room. But after they get out they will all head to a place where a certain bunny will help Twilight fall asleep.

The Land of Hush

View Online

In the other room the Pajanimals were discussing about bringing Twilight to The Land of Hush. While they were talking Princess Cadence came in to meet up with Celestia. She then caught her eye on the Pajanimals.

"Oh hello. You must be the Pajanimals." Cadence said.

"Yes we are. Who might you be?" Apollo said.

"I'm Cadence. The Princess of Love and was Twilight's old foalsitter." She said.

"Oh. Well we were discussing about how to help Twilight rest better." Cowbella said.

"That's good to hear. So you have any idea how to help Twilight?" Cadence said.

"We were thinking that maybe we can take Twilight to The Land of Hush. Cause there Bedtime Bunny can help Twilight sleep the bad thoughts away." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"The Land of Hush? What's that?" Cadence said.

"We'll show you when we get there. Right now we gotta meet up with Celestia." Squacky said.

The Pajanimals and Cadence when back to the throne room where Celestia and Luna were. The minute they saw the Pajanimals and Cadence they greeted her and hoped that the Pajanimals came up with an idea for Twilight.

"Cadence. We're so glad you're here." Celestia said.

"Me too Celestia. We had a little something happening at the Crystal Empire but it's all good now." Cadence said.

"Ok. So Pajanimals. Have you thought of an idea for Twilight?" Luna said.

"Yes Luna. We decided to take Twilight to The Land of Hush. Bedtime Bunny will help her sleep in no time." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"The Land of Hush huh? Would you like to show us the place?" Celestia said.

"We sure will. Everyone meet us at the carriage and we'll take you there." Cowbella said.

Everyone went to the carriage and got in. Once everyone was in they prepared for travelling in the sky.

"Ready?" Cowbella said.

"Ready!!" Everyone else said.

"Let's bungle up!!" Cowbella said as the carriage rose and begin to ride to the sky.

"Snuggle up!!" Squacky said.

"Huggle up!!" Apollo said.

"And go!!" Sweet-Pea Sue said.

The carriage rode them into the sky where they see the stars shine in the night. After a smooth ride it landed. Everyone got out and saw everything was made of pillows. It was so cozy everywhere and the best part was that there was no noise coming from anywhere.

"Wow. This is so cozy here." Cadence said.

"I'm guessing that this is the Land of Hush." Celestia said.

"Yes it is Celestia. Everything is so cozy here it feels like a big hug." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"Yeah. Now we need to find the Bedtime Bunny. Where is she?" Apollo said.

Suddenly they all heard soft snoring. They turned around and saw a white bunny wearing pink pajamas and beanie fast asleep. She was without a doubt the Bedtime Bunny.

"Is that her?" Rarity said.

"Yep that's her Rarity." Apollo said.

Everyone tiptoed to the Bedtime Bunny so they wouldn't wake her up. Once they were close they had to wake her up gently.

"Aww what a cute bunny. I almost don't want to wake her up. But we do need her help." Fluttershy said.

"Don't worry Fluttershy. We'll wake her up gently." Cowbella said.

Then Squacky went close to Bedtime Bunny's ear and quacked loud enough causing her to wake up and fall in a pile of feathers. She picked herself up and saw the Pajanimals and the ponies.

"What? Who?" Bedtime Bunny said.

"Hello." Squacky said.

"Oh. Welcome Pajanimals to the Land of Hush." She said before seeing the ponies. "And who might your new friends be?" She asked.

"They are Princess Celestia, Luna, and Cadence. Along with the Mane Six: Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, and sweet Fluttershy. And Spike." Apollo said.

"Hello." Everyone said together.

"Well it's nice to meet you lovely folk. Since you're all new here I just wanna remind you that this is a sleepy time place." Bedtime Bunny said as she began to sing a gentle song.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=px_Lfd1WBxY&pp=ygUbcGFqYW5pbWFscyB0aGUgbGFuZCBvZiBodXNo

First it was Bedtime Bunny singing then she invited the Pajanimals to join along. The ponies were enjoying the song so much they all closed their eyes and swayed their heads to the song. It continued on and it ended on a perfect note.

"Oh that was a lovely song." Fluttershy said.

"Yes darling. It's guaranteed to help anyone relax." Rarity said.

Bedtime Bunny yawned and said "Singing makes me so tired. Well back to sleep."

"Wait Bedtime Bunny. We need your help." Apollo said.

"Oh? By all means. Please tell me what the situation is." Bedtime Bunny said.

"Twilight Sparkle here is having trouble trying to sleep. She has been up for a week and now she's restless. We humbly request that you can help Twilight forget all the bad thoughts in her head so she'll rest." Luna said.

"Since the Pajanimals told us you know the best ways to help anyone sleep better." Spike said.

"Oh I see. What bad thoughts was she thinking?" Bedtime Bunny said.

"She keeps thinking that the Star Gaze Festival may go wrong. But really we all know that nothing will go wrong." Cadence said.

"I understand. It's not okay to keep thinking about the festival in a negative way. Everyone come with me." Bedtime Bunny said as she led them to a place where she relaxes her mind.

"Now Twilight. Whenever I can't sleep this is what I do. Are you ready?" Bedtime Bunny said.

"I guess so miss Bedtime Bunny." Twilight said.

"Now I want you to close your eyes, relax your mind, and let all the stress melt away." Bedtime Bunny said.

Twilight did what Bedtime Bunny asked her to do. She slowly closed her eyes, taking in deep breaths resting her head, and in 15 minutes time she felt all that stress melt away from her body as she slowly laid down and finally fell fast asleep.

"Twilight's sleeping. Thank you Bedtime Bunny for your assistance." Luna smiled.

"Your very welcome. I hope to see you again real soon." Bedtime Bunny said as she laid back to sleep.

Everyone carried Twilight back to the carriage and went in. Once in they all went back to Equestria to the castle. Luna using her magic put Twilight down on the bed very gently so she can sleep. Then everyone quietly went out of the room and shut the door gently.

"Thank you Pajanimals. The Land of Hush really is a cozy place. And now Twilight is finally recovering for the days of lost sleep." Luna said.

"Anytime Princess Luna." Cowbella said.

"But the job ain't over yet. All that's left is to wait for 3 days. But one of us should stay with Twilight. Just to make sure she doesn't stay up late again." Apollo said.

"I'll do it. I can come by and comfort her by singing that song the Bedtime Bunny sang. It will help her rest much better." Fluttershy said.

"You should do that Fluttershy. But i'll be the one watching her." Spike said.

"Ok if you want to." Fluttershy said.

"Pajanimals. We thank you for this and will let you know how it turned out in 3 days. As a reward we would like to offer you to join us at The Star Gaze Festival. Will you accept our invitation?" Luna said.

"We would be honored to join you Princess Luna." Apollo said as the others agreed.

"Wonderful. We look forward to see you there." Luna said.

Everyone left to their respectful homes leaving the princesses and the Pajanimals alone. They all knew that Twilight is finally recovering from lost sleep. But the real answer would come in 3 days knowing if it worked or not.

Recovered and the Festival

View Online

3 days have passed and morning has come. Everypony is finished decorating Ponyville for the Star Gaze Festival. But something else has also happened. Twilight Sparkle the princess of friendship couldn't sleep because she stayed up so late preparing for the event. She would have been a sleepless zombie if it wasn't for 4 cute animals. The Pajanimals arrived in Equestria and they helped her back to fully rested. Now The Pajanimals and the Mane Five were waiting for Twilight to come and meet them for the final details for the festival.

"Oh I hoped that song helped her sleep better." Fluttershy said.

"Don't worry. 3 days have passed. Im sure Twilight's all better now." Apollo said.

Then to everyone's surprise Twilight came to see them. She was no longer looking like a sleepless zombie. Her mane was all brushed neatly, no bags under her eyes, and was not wobbling anymore. When she saw her friends she gave them all a bright smile.

"Hi girls." Twilight said.

"Twilight!!" They all said as they gave her a hug.

"Well i'll be. You look a whole lot better than last time. So how you feeling?" Applejack said.

"I'm feeling much better. All thanks to the Pajanimals. I still couldn't believe that they managed to help me sleep better." Twilight said.

"Well Twilight they are good at solving the sleeping problems. I just hope you don't start thinking that something goes wrong and stay up late again." Rarity said.

"No Rarity. I learned that it's never OK to stay up so late preparing. From now on I will make sure to get the sleep I need for all the events." Twilight said.

"Were glad to hear that Twilight. Don't want you looking like a zombie again." Rainbow Dash said.

"Rainbow." Twilight frowned.

"It's okay Twilight. You know she's messing with you." Apollo said.

"Yeah she intends to do that a lot." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"Your not wrong Sweet-Pea Sue." Twilight said.

"Now don't we have a festival to finish up?" Squacky said.

"Yes we do!! Come everypony!!" Pinkie said.

For the next few hours the Pajanimals and the Mane Six have made the final touches to the festival. We see the girls putting up star decorations and the Pajanimals were getting the treats ready. The final thing that was missing was the show performers. They got the performers all ready for the event. By the time night rolled in everything was ready. The party was illuminating by all the decorations and everypony was having a good time.

"Wow. This is beautiful. Im glad that Luna invited us." Squacky said.

"Yes Squacky. It's almost like the wish came true." Cowbella said.

"You know Cowbella? That was possibly the best wish we all made." Apollo said.

"It sure was. Now let's enjoy the Star Gaze Festival." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

So the Pajanimals went to enjoy everything that the Star Gaze Festival has to offer. Apollo was enjoying the stargazing in the sky spotting the different stars, Cowbella was loving the music and dancing like a ballerina she dreamed of being, Squacky loved playing the games and getting some nice prizes, and Sweet-Pea Sue was enjoying the activities and made another beautiful star like the last one. But the sight that brought smiles to their faces was seeing Twilight enjoy the festival with her friends. They were happy that they were able to help Twilight rest better and enjoy the night and boy they did. The festival lasted for a few hours and then everyone went back home after a fun night. The Pajanimals were at the carriage but didn't leave til after their friends said their goodbyes.

"We can't thank you enough Pajanimals. We appreciate you helping Twilight rest better." Celestia said.

"Anytime Princess. Shame we have to go now." Apollo said.

"But know this. Your welcome to visit anytime. You have our full potential." Luna said.

"Thanks Luna. We promise to come visit you when we can." Cowbella said.

"Goodbye Pajanimals. Come by anytime you want." Cadence said.

"Bye-bye." The Pajanimals said as the carriage rolled into the portal.

The carriage was on a smooth ride and the Pajanimals loved it. The portal reopened and the Pajanimals were back in their bedroom. They all got in their beds and before they went to sleep they have one final thing to say.

"Well guys. That was the best adventure we had. A good wish we all made." Apollo said.

"Yes. It was. Now let's all get some sleep. But remember that friendship will always be magic." Cowbella said.

"Oh yes. The one lesson we learned when we met them." Squacky said.

"Yep now let's rest. Good night everyone." Sweet-Pea Sue said.

"Wait. Let's sing one last song so we can sleep better." Apollo said and the others agreed.

The Pajanimals got out of their beds and looked at their bedroom window. They all looked at the sky and they loved the stars as they sang one final song.

They all sang along and they loved singing about sleeping. When they finished they all got into their beds and slowly fell asleep drifting off to dreamland. Inside their minds they dreamed about everything that happened today and was a pretty good day for all. But before we end our story here is what Bedtime Bunny has to say about the lesson Twilight learned.

"Twilight couldn't sleep cause she kept thinking bad thoughts. So we helped her by taking some deep breaths and relaxing her mind. Lesson she learned is to not stay up late thinking something bad was going to happen when really it wasn't. Well Im off back to sleep." Bedtime Bunny said as she fell asleep cutting back to the Pajanimals sleeping away.

And that my friends is the ending of our story. To everyone reading this I wish you all a good night.
