Should Dawn Shine wake up, she would notice something was off... She was now on a bed. It was Sonic Wings' bed. Turning to face the workbench would immediately result in spotting him, working hard on translating blueprints and making a rocket... Speaking of, his house was kind of "small" at this. This room was his kitchen and bedroom, and a bathroom not so far. from there. Well, at least the smell of the room was of the varied compounds... Many of them beyond exotic. Heck, he had pure stardust in a bag! That aside... She would notice that the wall in front of the workbench was covered with pictures of Celestia, and the ones above the bed's headboard was of Luna. And that as not all: a partially open drawer reveals magazines and newspapers covering both Luna and Celestia... Odd he didn't seem to have any NSFW magazine at all... |

Actually, the first thing that she would notice was that changelings, apparently, could walk on clouds naturally. She hadn't really given the matter much thought, since her hatred of them had only led to her wondering how to harm them, but it was surprising to note that they could. In her still half-asleep state, Celestia even found herself wondering if they could move them around and do the same things that pegasi did with them, only ot suddenly stop herself. Why was she wondering this? Why would she care if they could perform weather related duties? They were a menace, a plague on the land that needed to be squashed out. Not something that could be put to use in Equestria. The princess of the sun finally pulled her face out of the cloud mattress that she was pressed into, only to blink her eyes at what she suddenly found herself in. That was a LOT of pictures of her... Celestia found herself debating about changing his devotion toward her (again, assuming this was genuine, but she was having a hard time thing it wasn't) from 'slightly creepy' to 'VERY creepy'. The faux changeling stood from the bed more than a little unsteadily, but managed to find her footing on the cloud floor. "Is there a clock somewhere? I'd like to check the time." |

Sonic Wings' attention went from the rocket he was making to Dawn Shine. "Ah, you woke up! You were sleeping so peacefully that I thought it was a terrible idea to leave you alone or wake you... Hm... Don't mind the mess, I live alone and hardly have time to put things in order. Let's see... A clock..." He looked in the drawers, except the one who had been partially open. Some had mementos he got from his trip to other regions, other had dictionaries and there was one with timed fuses and many cilinders, one of which had the faint smell of aged blood and the others had no smell at all. There he found the clock, a rather common analog clock, still ticking among some wires. "According to this... Is 3:23 AM. I stopped looking at the clock as soon as I lost track of time, so I just sleep when I feel tired. So, there's chocolate milk in the thermo bottle. So, stay as long as you want. Mi casa es su casa." |

Celestia nearly facehoofed at the time. Ordinarily, the solar princess had a very good internal clock, able to rise with the sun and go to bed with it as well, maybe with a few times she woke up early or went to bed late. She was being affect by the endless night as much as everypony else it seemed. There had to be some way to convince Luna to stop this nonsense. Hopefully a way that involved getting her back to normal as well; she would so love to have something like chocolate milk again, her figure be damned. "There's no point, I can't taste anything; and it doesn't fill me in the least. I might as well be drinking the air or eating this cloud. ...thank you for letting me stay here though." She owed him that at least. |

"Oh, true... There's that problem Gryilldae spoke of... Well, as I said, you are welcome to astay in my house as you see fit. Maybe we could check on Dream Reaper later, to see if she finally found a solution to your transformation." Sonic Wings said, patting between her wings "She is working hard on your case... ... I bet I freaked you with how I decorated my room, right? I was not kidding when I told you I'm a fan of The Sisters. Well, you see, I once had a short stay in Canterlot with my parents, and used to sneak closer to the castle to watch how the sunrise and moonrise happens... That's when I learned of them and enjoyed seeing that." |

Celestia nodded; that actually made his collection significantly less creepy. The fact that he still had his pictures of Luna around even with the night that seemed unlikely to end still happening also made her feel a bit of happiness. While she was angry at her sister, incredibly so, but she didn't desire her be demonized for her actions. Still getting used to walking on the cloud floor (it was actually rather different from normal ground), Dawn Shine walked over to the window and looked out to the open sky above the clouds. "Not many sunrises lately... I miss them so much." Which was the truth, even if she was one that actually did the job. "Tell you what, when this is all over, and Celestia is back, I'll tell her to make the next one really something to see; kay?" |

"We are not the only to miss the sunrises... Everyone everywhere is feeling. Dragons, Inukami, Gryphons and many others.. Sonic Wings walked to her side and gently rested a thruster against her. It was kind of cold... But he soom made that clear: "A-Ah, sorry!" he withdrew his thruster in a swift motion "I forgot these buddies aren't as warm as actual wings, you see...". With a brief sigh, he looked to the sky. He was clearly... In love? No, this love was the same one he always felt when thinking of The Sisters... That got to be... "I heard many things of Celestia before... Some says she is a tyrant, others says she got a great sense of humor and is a prankster... There's even that of her hatred. I believe she just had some bad experiences in the past... We all do, don't we?". |

The fact was, Celestia had heard those rumors as well; they had been around for literally the entirety of her reign. It was impossible to keep a rumor secret, that was a part of life: The bigger the secret, the harder it was to keep. For her part, she had done her best to prove them wrong by being as kind and fair and just as she could. But that simply wasn't enough for some ponies; you couldn't please all the masses, no matter how hard you tried. "You could say that." She admitted, still looking at the sky. If only he knew a fraction of what she'd seen, he wouldn't be nearly so sympathetic toward these insects. Then again, she'd thought that about so many others that it was just old bitterness talking at this point. "And they're not as cold as you think, this shell isn't as sensitive as normal flesh." |

He remained silent for a while, pondering about her and Celestia. Sonic Wings felt something for her, as much as he did for Celestia and Luna, that was sure... But still, something felt off. He got this feeling he knew her but couldn't even tell why... Well, it was pointless to ponder about these things when there was no clear answer. Thus, he decided to shift the topic... Well, after detailing about his thrusters' coldness. "Well, I guess it's the intention that matters, right? And My intention is to keep you warm and care of you. As for your shell... Well, I read on "Changeling Anatomy: revision 2" that changelings can control their sensations by disabling nerves on certain areas. I don't know how this would apply for you." After a brief while, the change of topic: "I have been informed Dusk Breeze passed the crown. And the new queen of the changelings has declared Discord as their enemy above everything. I wonder what she is gonna do about us this time. I mean: If we are "just food" for them, then why would she declare the one to provoke an array of emotions upon us as their enemy?" |

"That's actually fairly standard misdirection really." You didn't rule a country for longer than most of the ponies in it realized without picking up a few tricks to make it easier along the way. "When you're an unpopular leader, or you made an incredibly stupid call that you can't just undo and nopony is willing to forgive over, you need to find something big to distract them from it. It could be anything from the passing of a controversial law, or declaring a war on something if you're really desperate. The point is, as long as you can distract them from you, you can get away with just about anything." Cynical, yes, but still true. Edited by Princess Celestia, Sep 15 2012, 01:58 AM.

He thought for a while. Sonic Wings knew what she said was true... But he knew it was most likely fals according to who this new queen is. "I suppose... Sometimes we just want to bury secrets, at other times we want the world to know... I know jack, I tell you. After all, my deal is crafting fireworks on-demand and setting firework displays... Well, think we should see Dream Reaper to see if she is done setting up the ritual spell or something to bring you back to normal? After all, I bet you hate this form, and the sooner you leave it behind, the better... For all of us." |

"I know jack to, several of them actually." It was a poor joke, but it was needed to lighten her mood. As with the knowledge of the political tricks that came from ruling a country for so long, a few tricks became apparent along the way. One of them was to try and not take anything all that seriously unless it was serious. Admittedly, that still left very little in the way of things to joke about, but she still made the effort. "And she won't be able to undo this, but I'll go just to humor you." She knew she was stuck like this until whatever insane stipulation Discord had placed on her was met, and maybe even longer if he decided she was more fun as a changeling, but she was going to at least go through the motions of having hope for the benefits of the ponies trying to help her; she owed them that. "Let's get going." |

"Ey, ey... I guess trying is what counts, correct? Well, let's go then..." And thus, Sonic Wings led her out and then went along with her in the flight back down to Ponyville. On the way, she could notice his flight performance somehow improved. Well, he still was an excelent flier, even as a crippled pegasus... Perhaps she should point that out to him? Or did he know already? That we will see in the next chapter. |
