My Little Pony Friendship is Magic: The Missing Star
A/N: Hello, world and welcome back to MLP: Friendship is Magic!
So, two days ago my sister, Yami Faerie, went to the hospital when she started feeling intense pain in the same area as her appendix, and the doctors ran tests. The good news is that it isn't her appendix, but they aren't sure of what is causing the pain in the first place. She is recovering and is taking prescribed meds.
Anyway, just wanted to put that bit of real life out there. Now for the story, this is one I came up with, so it's original, and it's time for the Mane Seven to have their final battle against Shadow Star. Onward!
Read, review, and enjoy!

CHAPTER ONE: NIGHTMARE OR REAL?
It was a dark and stormy night in Equestria, and in a bedroom at the Starlight Apothecary, Sunrise Blossom was tossing and turning in her bed.
'Sunrise Blossom was running through a dark tunnel toward a light in the distance – but it didn't seem to get any closer, no matter how fast she ran.
'Determined to reach the light, the orange unicorn managed to teleport and suddenly found herself on a cliff, a storm raging around her. "Hello?" she called out, looking for some sign of life, or even something to pinpoint where she was. "Hello?! Twilight! Any pony?!"
'I don't know where I am,' she thought as the wind blew her mane into her face. "Help! Somepony please help!" she shouted and then she screamed when the cliff suddenly collapsed and she fell.'
Sunrise Blossom sat up, breathing hard, and was relieved to find herself in her own bed. 'It was just a dream.'
"Was it just a dream?" a cruel familiar voice asked from the shadows, and a flash of lightning revealed Shadow Star in the room.
"Shadow Star!" Sunrise Blossom shouted and leapt from her bed – and found herself on the cliff again. "Oh no!" She was still dreaming!
'Sunrise Blossom looked around frantically for a way off the cliff while Shadow Star's evil laugh echoed around her. Suddenly the storm broke and she could see a sky filled with stars.
'She was surprised when three stars lowered toward her: a purple star, an orange star, and a Silver Star. She was alarmed when Shadow Star appeared nearby and took the Silver Star, disappearing with it.
"No! Give it back!" Sunrise Blossom screamed, looking around frantically.
"Sunrise Blossom," said a familiar voice, and the orange unicorn gasped when Princess Luna appeared before her. "You and your friends must find the missing star before it's too late."
"How do I do that when I'm in a dream?" Sunrise Blossom asked her desperately. "I don't even know where Shadow Star is hiding."
Instead of answering, Princess Luna disappeared and everything faded.'
Sunrise Blossom woke again and nearly fell out of bed, narrowly missing hitting her cat, Rosemary. She looked around her room, but there was no sign of the evil unicorn, and the storm had broke so she could see the night sky.
Feeling uneasy by the nightmare and the warning from Princess Luna, she got out of bed, and retrieved her message book. Opening it, she wrote a message to Princess Celestia.
Dear, Princess Celestia,
I just had an unusual dream and Shadow Star
was in it. In my dream, she stole a silver star
from the sky, and then Princess Luna appeared.
She said I have to find the missing star.
I don't know why she would tell me this, or if my
dream is true.
Your faithful student,
Sunrise Blossom.
Finishing the letter, she put the book away, and she went back to bed.
The next morning, Twilight Sparkle trotted through the town to the Apothecary to pick up her twin sister to go out to breakfast. She was surprised to find that the Apothecary wasn't open yet.
'That's odd,' she thought, and she magically unlocked the door to go inside. 'Sunrise is usually up by now.'
"Hey, Twilight!"
The purple unicorn paused as Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy arrived. "Hey, guys."
"Mornin', Twilight," said Applejack. "Where's Sunrise?"
"She's not up yet apparently," Twilight Sparkle informed them. "I was about to go inside to check on her."
"Good idea," Rainbow Dash agreed. "Let's go in together."
Agreeing with her, the group entered the Apothecary together.
Inside, they were greeted by an irate Rosemary and Fluttershy figured that she hadn't been fed yet.
"Come with me and I'll get you a yummy breakfast," the yellow pegasus told the cat, who immediately began purring and followed her into the back room.
Twilight Sparkle and the others hurried upstairs to check on her twin, worried since it wasn't like her sister to not feed her pet.
Entering the bedroom, they found the orange unicorn still in bed and fast asleep.
Really concerned now, Twilight Sparkle went to the bed and prodded her sister with one hoof. "Sunrise, Sunrise, time to get up."
"Ugh, five more minutes," Sunrise Blossom mumbled, pulling the blanket over her head.
The purple unicorn rolled her eyes, sighing as her friends snickered, and spoke aloud. "Get up, Sunny, or I'll let Pinkie play in your workroom."
"I'm up! I'm up!" Sunrise Blossom yelped, sitting up and fell out of the bed, tangled up in the blanket. "Ow!" She untangled herself and shot her sister a look. "You know there's less threatening ways to wake me up, Twi."
"I know," Twilight Sparkle replied, "and I also know that you aren't the type to oversleep, Sunny."
Sunrise Blossom blinked and when she saw the time, she flushed. "Oh, I guess I did."
"Are you feeling ok, sugarcube?" Applejack asked. "It's not like you to sleep in like that."
Sunrise Blossom sighed as they were joined by Fluttershy. "I'm not really sure," she admitted. "I had a nightmare involving Shadow Star stealing a star from the sky, and Princess Luna appeared with a message that doesn't make sense."
"What was the message?" Rarity inquired.
Before Sunrise Blossom could answer, Spike burst into the room, clutching a scroll. "Spike!"
"Message from" the baby dragon gasped, exhausted from running "Princess Celestia."
Twilight Sparkle magically took the scroll from him and unfurled it. "'My faithful students, Twilight Sparkle and Sunrise Blossom'," she read. "'It is imperative that you both come to Canterlot with your friends, along with the Elements of Harmony, as soon as possible, and help us stop Shadow Star once and for all. Princess Celestia'."
"Whoa, first you have a bad dream about that evil pony, and now this letter from the Princess," Rainbow Dash remarked.
"This has to be a response to the message I wrote to her last night about my dream," Sunrise Blossom guessed.
Agreeing with that, the group retrieved the Elements from the library and hurried to catch the next train to Canterlot.
A/N: Hmm, could the two be connected? You'll have to wait until next week to find out for sure. Bye for now! R&R everyone!
