- >It rains in Heaven all day long.
- >Well,
- >That's what you would guess the place you woke up in after you died is.
- >But you could come back.
- >To Ponyville.
- >Not to Earth.
- >Isn't that funny?
- >You died in Equestria.
- >But you could come back.
- >After you had awoken atop a cloud, you had looked around.
- >Nothing in sight except for
- >Clouds.
- >So you fell.
- >And descended upon Ponyville again.
- >Things were different.
- >Colors were more pronounced.
- >You could hear the sunlight.
- >It rained around you constantly and
- >The rain made a sound like glass chimes tinkling in the breeze.
- >Then shattering.
- >Odd creatures floated through the air around you.
- >Some looked like jellyfish.
- >Others like snakes without eyes.
- >No one else could see this constant rain or the creatures.
- >The chiming rain passed through them.
- >Through the earth.
- >Like their gaze passed through you.
- >It rained always.
- >"Oh Anon, you're back!"
- >Luna throws her blanket off and jumps up excitedly.
- "I went there again."
- >She wraps her blanket around your shoulders, thinking you must be cold.
- >Thinking you must be
- >Cold
- >"To Heaven?"
- >You shake your head.
- >With a finger, you point out of her window.
- >To the moon.
- >Her eyes grow wide.
- >A smile overtakes her face.
- "I wanted to see where you went again."
- >"And? What did you think this time?"
- >You take the blanket from your body and wrap it back around her.
- >You think she must be cold
- >She must be
- "It rains there too. And there are more creatures there. I think they're attracted to something there."
- >Luna sits beside you and leans her head on your shoulder.
- >"What did they look like? What did they do?"
- >You pet her neck and tell her.
- >Even here, the rain passes through her
- >Making it's quiet, tragic sound.
- >"Let's go together next time, okay?"
- >You look down at her.
- >Her eyes draw you in.
- >They seem bigger here.
- >Wherever they are,
- >The moonlight always shines on them.
- >And the rain passes through that light.
- "What will your sister think?"
- >Luna looks away and smiles.
- >"She shall not know."
- >You squeeze her closer.
- "Okay. Tomorrow."
- >Getting up, you walk toward a wall.
- >"Wait!"
- >Turning back, you see Luna holding out a hoof in the rain.
- "Tomorrow."
- >With that
- >You leave Luna's dream.
- >The creatures wait for you outside of the castle.
- >There are countless numbers of them.
- >Most of these aren't even in a creature-like form.
- >They don't frighten you.
- "One more night."
- >They surround you.
- >Their white bodies wrap around you
- >And begin to pull you up.
- >You look back down as the creatures fly you into the night sky
- >Past the clouds.
- >Past the moon.
- >It never stops raining.
- >You are Luna.
- >As you stand out on the balcony, the sun begins to rise.
- >Celestia joins you.
- >"You seem happy, sister."
- >Today was a special day.
- >For the first time in a long time, you felt truly happy.
- >Ever since the strange creature Anon had come to your dreams months ago, you had grown happy.
- >Tonight however, you would go on your one-hundredth date with the lover of your dreams.
- >A date to your special place.
- >Far away from the troubles of the mundane Equestria.
- >Alone with your mysterious man.
- >Something wet slides down your cheek.
- "Oh, excuse me."
- >You turn away from your confused sister and wipe your eye.
- >A strange sound fills your ears.
- >Like crystal being dropped.
- >Looking up, you see that it's starting to rain.
- >Even though there are no clouds.
- >The rain is what is making the noise.
- "It's raining."
- >Celestia looks up.
- >"What are you talking about? The sky is clear. Are you okay Luna?"
- >You watch the rain fall around you.
- >It passes through everything
- >And makes a pleasant noise.
- >You smile.
- >The weather must be perfect in Heaven.
