Celestia: *cheery* I don't know about you two, but I feel very well-rested. *mumbles* For the most part...

Solaris- *smiles calmly* As do I, so where's Luna and Artemis?

Celestia- *smiles*

Twilight: *calmly* They already turned in for the night.

Dusk- *levitates they're list* *nods* With everything completed of course...

Celestia: *smug tone* Did they now? *looks at Solaris who has the same expression on his face*

Solaris- *smirks at her* It seems our duties were harder than our siblings expected. *looks at the four* Come on you two, let's see what Luna and Artemis have in store for us...*walks out*

Celestia- *smiles and nods* *walks out with them*

Twilight/Dusk- *follows reluctantly*

*outside on the balcony Celestia and Solaris effortlessly raise the moon successfully*

Celestia: *calm*Moon raised!

Twilight- *standing next to Celestia in wonder* You two make it look so easy...

Dusk- *nods in agreement*

Solaris- *chuckles* It's even easier than raising the sun Twilight because it has a smaller mass *arches eyebrow in amusement* I thought we taught you that?

Twilight/Dusk- *blushes*

Celestia- *chuckles* We're just teasing you two...now what's next?

Twilight- *reads from the list* All there is to do is watch over Equestria, visit the dream realm, and protect ponies in their nightmares. *smiles*

*they all see the Canterlot lights go out*

Celestia: *smiles calmly* Of course. Everypony's asleep at night. *looks at Solaris with a calm smile* Luna and Artemis work alone...

Solaris- *nods with a smile* But it's nothing we can't handle.

Celestia/Solaris- *looks at Twilight and Dusk with a sly smile* *in unison* Our list was three times as long...

Twilight- *smirks at them* We learned from the best...

Dusk- *smirks*

*they all chuckle quietly*

[lightswitches clicking off]

Celestia: *smiles at Solaris*All right. Everypony's asleep now lets get started Solaris...

Solaris- *nods* *turns to Twilight and Dusk* *smiles* You both have learned and are able to perform a mind spell correct?

Dusk- *nods* Yes...

Celestia- Would you both like to join us in the dream realm...*admits sheepishly* We could use the company besides each other...

Twilight/Dusk- *smiles* *in calm unison* It would be an honor...*bows respectively*

Celestia/Solaris- *smiles calmly* *closes eyes and their horns glow blue*

Twilight/Dusk- *horns glow magenta* *closes eyes* *smiles calmly*

*the scenery fades into a void of black then they appear in the dreamscape*

Twilight- *looks at the dreamscape in awe* It reminds me of when we ascended to alicornship...

Dusk- *nods calmly*

Solaris- *sincerely smiles* You both deserved it...

Celestia: *nods sincerely* *smiles* now, to save some ponies from their nightmares.

Solaris- *concerned* Which aren't real, so it shouldn't be too hard, right? *looks at Twilight and Dusk for reassurance*

Twilight/Dusk- *nods hopefully*

Celestia- *breathes* Right...

*different dreams go by as they all talk such as Derpy and Dopey being rulers,Applejack and AJ as foals sleeping, Pinkie and Bubble with shades parting with Gummy and Candy, The Doctor and Time Turner hiding from stone statues, Discord, Eris,Smooze, and Smoozette dancing, Fluttershy and Butterscotch riding a giant Angel and Angela, Rainbow, Blitz,Twilight, and Dusk flying with each other calmly, and Cadence and Bolero dancing while Flurry and Fluffy are deejaying on turntables with shades*

*they all look calmly*

Twilight- *smile fades* *looks at Celestia with concerned expression* Celestia, Solaris can we tell you something?

Dusk- *puts a hoof on Twilight's shoulder in concern*

Sunset/Glare- *looks at them in concern*

Celestia- *looks at them smiling warmly* Of course you can tell us anything...*concerned*

Solaris- *smile fades to concern* What's wrong?

Dusk- *looks at them in concern* It's about Luna and Artemis...

Celestia/Solaris- *arches eyebrow in concern* *concerned unison* What about them?

Twilight/Dusk- *looks at each other in concern then looks at them* *takes a deep breath*

*they tell Celestia and Solaris about the events of what happened with the Tantabus*

*Celestia and Solaris's expression turned from concern to worry and shock and shame*

Twilight- *looks at them in concern* Princess...?

Dusk- *looks at them in concern* Prince Solaris...?

Celestia/Solaris- *solemnly wraps Twilight and Dusk in an embrace* *tears flow from their eyes* *solemn tone* Thank you...for telling us...

Twilight/Dusk- *shocked but they smile calmly and close they're eyes and accept the embrace* Your welcome...

*the four release*

Dusk- *looks at them* There is another thing we want to talk to you guys about...

Celestia/Solaris- *concerned* What is it?

Twilight- *concerned* That's just it, we don't really know but we feel like we're not all there.

Dusk- *concerned* Like there's pieces of us missing...

Celestia/Solaris- *looks in concern* *sighs and looks at them* Twilight, Dusk, we-

*they suddenly hear two ponies scream in fear and turn and see that it's Starlight and Stellar as they're falling in a nightmare*
