sigh* Came from the lips of Spike as he looked out the window of the carriage being pulled by a pair of pegasus guards in the early morning sky. He was heading to the city knowen as Canterlot to help the Princess of the Sun for a job she need for him. He was not sure why he was needed and not his close friend Twilight Sparkle, was not. Soon, came a voice from the front.
"We will arive at the palace in shortly, Sir Spike." said one of the ponies pulling the carriage as the city came into view. Shortly, they pulled up in front of the palace and Spike let himself out as it came to a stop.
"Thanks for the ride guys." Spike said as he walked up to the large doors and entered the gorgeous home of the Co-rulers of Equestria. Soon, Spike was in the large throne room. It was full of ponies tending to the Princess of the Sun, Celestia, who was sitting on the trone.
"Ah, hello Spike. It's good to see you ahain." said Celestia as she smiled warmly towards the young dragon.
"Hello, it is nice to see you again to, Princess." Spike said as he walked up to the Alicorn.
"I'm pretty sure you're wondering as to why I summoned you so early in the morning?" Celestia asked as she rose from the throne and walked to mean the dragon in the middle of the room.
"Um, yeah. I was" Spike said as he was wondering what she needed from him.
"Well, you do remember that my sister, Princess Luna, has return from the moon just a few days ago." Celestia said as she turn and walked to the window over looking her kingdom.
"Ummmm, yeah." Spike said with a weak smile as he remembered that nightmarish day that was less then five days ago.
"Don't worry, she is totally diffrent form Nightmare Moon." Celestia insured Spike with her warm smile and calm tone. She looked at Spike as she added, "That is what I called you here for. I would like you to be Luna's assistant for a little while to help her adjust to these new time."
"Ummm,...well...I'm not sure." Spike said as he tryed to figure out a way to get out of it, but then he realized he had the answer as he spoke, "But Princess, Luna is nocturnal and I'm not."
"Oh, well that not a problem." Celestia said calmly as she used her magic to pull a posion out of a trunk off to the side. It was green and bubbled as she removed the cork from the bottle as she said, "This will change you sleep schedule to sleep in the day, and stay up all night."
"Oh,...um...well." Spike said as the bottle was placed in his claws. He smiled at the princess, but was still not sure if he should. Celestia sinced this, so, she decided to sweeten the pot.
"Spike, if you do this. then thie will be your reward." Celestia said as she made a mostion with her hoof, and soon three crates full of gem stones. The sight of them made his mouth water, and with out thinking, he drank the posion down. And second after he finished it, he fell over, asleep. Celestia smiled as she looked over his body and then she said, "Please place him in a guessed room."
*That Night.*
"But sister, I sti not sure how to act around this time." Luna pleaded to her sister as they walked down the hall. What she was not telling Celestia was that she had a much diffrent problem that she was having.
"Do not worry Luna, I have an answer for that." Celestia said as she stopped infront of a door and used her magic to open it. In side was a large room, with a large t.v., a dresser, and a king sized bed that held a young, snoring dragon. Celestia walked into the room with Luna following as she said, "This is Spike, he is my faithful student, Twilight Sparkle's assistant but he will help you for a little while."
