The ponies discuss a dream Sweetheart tells them about.
Thinking Bigger
[That night at Sweetheart's house...] *Sweetheart sleeps and dreams* [A few minutes later...] *she wakes up*
"What a truly weird dream," said Sweetheart. I don't want that to happen to me. I hope my friends didn't have this dream. [The next day, outside school...]
"Yeah, I had that dream too, Sweetheart," said Melody. It's like our minds were telling us something.
"Like what?" asked Bright Eyes.
"Like they wanted us to get fatter," said Bon Bon.
"I don't want to," said Clover. I have enough trouble with my clothing as it is. *Pinkie Pie and her friends arrive*
"Any of you have that dream about getting fatter last night?"asked Pinkie Pie.
"Oh dahling it wasn't all that good, was it?" asked Rainbow Dash.
"I wonder if maybe we all had it because it was something we focused on not doing?" questioned Starlight.
"I suppose that could truly be true," said Sweetheart.
"How do we avoid it?" asked Bright Eyes.
"That's going to be hard," said Clover. If we don't think about it, then we may end up getting fatter.
"If we do, then we might keep having this dream," said Bright Eyes. We can't have it both ways though.
"What if we tried to ignore what the dream was telling us?" asked Melody.
"That could work," said Starlight. It would be hard but it could work. Might not be so easy with school though.
"We should just try to allow Ms Hackney's lessons push this aside," said Bright Eyes. *They walk into school*
"Hello, class," said Hackney. Today I'll teach you about outer space. I know this'll seem like a rather hard subject but I'll keep it as simple as possible. First, I'm sure you know we're on one of 8 planets in the Solar System. *Bon Bon raises her hoof*
"Yes, Bon Bon?" asked Hackney.
"I thought there were 9," said Bon Bon.
"There were but unfortunately, Pluto, the last one, is now no longer thought of being a planet because of its size yet I still consider it one myself," said Hackney. Now I'm sure you see the Moon out at times during the night and sometimes during the day but it's not as visible since the Sun is also out. The reason we only see one side of the moon is because we move in a circle to make a day as quickly as our Moon moves around us. You may also notice that sometimes you can't see the Moon at all and that's because it has started its turn all over again. Over time, each night, if you were to watch the Moon, you'd see it slowly get thicker and eventually become full. After that, it'll start getting thinner as it returns to the start of its turn again. Ever heard of the man in the moon? Well as it turns out, there was a pony that went onto the Moon in 1969 and his name was Neil Hoofstrong. He said his most famous words of all. "That's one small step for pony, one giant leap for Ponykind". However, the saying "Man in the Moon" is talking about the face you can see in the moon, at best during the peak of its turn. It's created by the dark parts of the Moon and it just happens to look like a pony's face. *the clock chimes 3PM* That's all for today, see you all tomorrow. *the class leaves* [Outside school...]
"Whew, I didn' think I was going to make it until the end of class," said Melody. I was not only listening to what Ms Hackney was saying but also what my mind was telling me.
"Same here, Melody," said Starlight. Glad we made it through, though.
"I wonder if it'll truly just go away?" asked Sweetheart.
"Maybe," said Starlight. I'm not so sure, though.
"I hope so," said Melody. Even though we've gotten our parents and Ms Hackney to accept us as we are, we also said to Mr Tidwell that we weren't going to gain anymore weight.
"Oh yeah, I forgot about that," said Patch. Thanks for the reminder, Melody.
"I think we all needed that reminder," said Bright Eyes. Now we can use what Mr Tidwell said to keep our thoughts of gaining more weight out of our heads.
"It's worked so far though," said Bon Bon.
"I hope it continues to work," said Clover. What Melody said should really help, though. *the gang nods*
