Chapter 10

I was still left in shock and stood frozen in the middle of the hallway. I could not move a muscle out of my shockness and suprisement, eventually having Twilight come to check up on me. She noticed the shocked loo I had in my eyes and immediately brought that topic up for discussion.

"What happened to Rarity?" She asked me.

I failed to answer Twilight in response, still in shock.

"Lunar?"

I finally managed to utter something, but it wasn't necessarily proper English. "Muh buh..."

"What?"

"Uh, wh-wait...what?" I didn't know what I said or what to say. My mind was literally going a mile a second.

"What happened between you and Rarity?" Twilight repeated.

"Uh," I stumbled over word choice, not knowing how to explain the situation to Twilight, "I...she..."

"You can tell me, Lunar," Twilight softly assured, "I won't get mad."

"At me or at her?" I responded.

"What do you mean?" Twilight asked.

I sighed slightly, looking squarely into Twilight's inviting lilac eyes. I smiled briefly, knowing that Twilight wouldn't be angry with either Rarity or myself, but I still had the sense of doubt inside my thoughts. Bucking up, I told Twilight the truth.

"Rarity came to give me this," I started, pausing to show Twilight the ring. She idolized the ring greatly as I put it on her horn gently. She kissed me passionately, telling me that she adored the ring, as I continued onward with my explanation. "I saw that something was bothering her, so I asked her what was wrong."

"Did she say?" Twilight replied, still in awe of the ring.

"Not exactly," I answered, rubbing the back of my neck in the process.

"What happened then?"

"She uhh...she...uhh..." My tongue started twisting on itself with my word choice, making it a lot harder to explain myself.

"She...?"

"Well," I improvised, "let's just say that some...actions took place...and she went home feeling different..."

"Is that a good thing, Lunar?" Twilight asked, unsure of how she should take my response.

"Maybe," I responded, "I honestly don't know."

"Hmm..." Twilight thought. "Perhaps I should talk to her tomorrow."

Hopefully Rarity will feel better then... I told myself. "Sounds good, Twily."

She smiled brightly, yawning a bit in the process. "We should get some rest, Lunar. It's been a long day for us both."

"After you, my dear," I smirked, nuzzling her slightly.

"Come along, my little Lunar." Twilight giggled, leading the way back to her room.

"Coming, oh powerful ruler." I laughed in response.

"Prince Lunar, art thou ready to resume thine roles of royalty?"

"I am, Princess Luna."

"Then you nay have a moment to spare."

"I'll get right to it, Princess."

And with that, I resumed my royal duties that were stripped from me over a thousand years ago.

"Oh, Prince, you're so handsome!"

"Oh, Rarity...you're very divine, elegant, and beautiful."

Wait...WHAT!?

I looked around, going undercover inside Rarity's dream to uncover what exactly was making her sad in the real world. The dream was taking place on a beautifully crafted field - reminiscent of one on a postcard - and had Rarity - whom portrayed herself simply as a Pegasus - and also a dreamt up version of myself laying side-by-side, under a large, shady tree, overlooking a horizon in the far off distance while the sun was setting. Dream Lunar looked exactly how I did, but appeared to be bulkier than me overall. I hung overhead on a cloud, eavesdropping on the conversation between Dream Lunar and Rarity.

"Tell me that we'll be together forever, my strong Prince." Rarity smiled.

"We will be together forever, my beautiful and elegant pegasus." Dream Lunar replied.

She wants to be with me...

"Oh, Rarity," Dream Lunar said with a bassy tone of voice.

"Yes, Prince Lunar?" Rarity responded, fluttering her eyes towards him.

Looking down on them both, I saw Dream Lunar get down on his right two knees and hover a ring in front of Rarity with his magic - which, oddly, was a black color, the opposite to my white aura.

"Will you marry me and be my Princess, Rarity?" Dream Lunar proposed.

"Oh, Lunar!" Rarity cried happily. "Of course I'll marry you!"

She wanted to marry me...that's why she's feeling down. Her dream can no longer come true...unless I can somehow clone myself or find an exact lookalike.

I completed my dream eavesdrop and left Rarity's dream and headed back to Twilight to check up on her. Her dreams, from what I can remember, always made me happier when I was feeling down myself. I missed checking on her in her dreams, so I opted to resume my fun while she slept.

I moseyed around for a while, searching for Twilight's dream, meandering past Lightning Dash's dream of the Wonderbolts, Pinkie Pie's dream of a large parade, Reticent's dream of a large animal sanctuary, Orange Apple's dream of growing the world's largest apple, Princess Celestia's dream of her fillyhood, and Princess Luna's dream (which was more of a nightmare that was under control, really) of Nightmare Moon.

Finally finding Twilight's dream, I peeked in and saw that she was dreaming about us, the real us, true us. I smiled brightly, overtaking Dream Lunar's body and mind and partaking in Twilight's dream. I felt happy and loved, whether I was in this dream or out in the real world, while I was with my one and only Twilight Sparkle.

Right now, we were walking through the castle, side-by-side. She was in a very beautiful and elegant dress and had her mane styled in a sexy kind of way. She was the definition of perfection and I loved every little inch about her, from her cute, little face, to her sweet and innocent giggle, her beautiful and loving smile, her flowing mane that was cleanly kept, her sexy body with her soft wings, and even her tail. I loved her with all of my heart and knew she loved me back.
