Slowly Louise returned to consciousness, she looked around and noticed that she was in the headmasters office. On the desk she saw a rabbit jumping up and down with rage, threatening Celestia will all sorts of things.

Ah yes, Celestia somehow turned her big sister Eleanor into a rabbit.

Welp, time to go back to unconsciousness!

"Oh no you don't!" Celestia was by her side and lifted her up into a sitting position. "There, now don't faint on us again."

Louise remembered her temper and decided to use it. "You turned my sister into a rabbit! Until that is banished from my mind I refuse to acknowledge reality!"

"In hindsight that might have been a bit excessive." Celestia admitted.

"A bit!?"

"The issue is judging a situation correctly, you never know if you judge a person correctly." Celestia explained. "I judged that your sister wouldn't back down until I have proven myself to her and with how confrontational she was I expected a clear cut magic duel to be the best way to do that." She finished. "Remember Louise always use the appropriate amount of force, and more importantly think of how to use it."

Louise was silent for a moment. "Did you just turn your reasoning for turning my sister into a rabbit into a lesson?" She questioned.

"Everything can be turned into lesson Louise, or more importantly you can learn from everything. The difficulty is often finding the lesson." Louise eye became to twitch as she started regretting not fainting again.

"Aren't you forgetting something?" From the headmaster's desk a angry rabbit looked at Celestia with murder in her eyes. Sadly the rest of her body was fluffiness so it didn't have the same effect Louise was used to.

"Don't worry, as I said the effect will wear of." Celestia explained with a voice that suggested that she had to say the sentence way to often by now. She then got a thoughtful expression on her face. "I could use this to start a lesson for dispelling enchantments for Louise..." She said to herself.

"NO!" the whole room minus Louise shouted at her.

"Well then you will just have to endure for a bit." Celestia explained. "And let this be a lesson for yourself as well Eleanor. Never underestimate anything. It can and will spell your demise many times over."

"Who are you to lecture me?!" Eleanor shouted back.

"I am Celestia, raughly 1400 years old, have tought more students than you are years old, led a team of elite flyers, defended my country from five different monsters and tought the next leaders of my country." Celestia said with bored voice. "Pleased to meet you."

"As if you could prove any of that!" The Rabbit shouted back at her.

Celestia only sighed as response.

"So, what now?" Louise asked carefully.

"It's still rather early, so how about we train more with your magic?" Celestia suggested. "The reason for your visit was the concern about Louise studies, or not?" She turned to Eleanor.

She continued to glare as she answered. "Very well, I will watch the 'lessons' you have made my sister do and judge the results."

"Perfect! Let's go!" As they left the office Eleanor started to curse again as she was levitated of the desk and placed into Louise hands.

Louise never felt more uncomfortable in her life as she carried her big sisters in her arms.

They arrived at their usual clearing close to the water so that Louise could train her controll more.

Eleanor observed patiently as Louise arms started to glow and the water began circle her.

"If you have some questions you may ask Eleanor." Celestia commented.

"It's Lady Vallière to you, horse!" It seemed that she was still angry. But after a few moments she did decide to ask something. "This is supposed to be a control exercises correct?"

"Yes, that is the case." Celestia answered carefully.

"What kind of control?"

"With only one sphere it is focused on the amount of magic used on a object. To specify to make sure that there is a equal amount pressing onto it from all sides."

"Why would that be necessary? She is performing a water spell, isn't she?"

"She isn't performing any elemental magic at all." Celestia explained as Louise grabbed another sphere of water.

At the raised eyebrow Celestia explained further. "Louise doesn't have a elemental affinity. From my observations you human mages seem to brute force most of you magic by forcing it into whatever shape you want it to be which is helped by your elemental affinity. Louise can't do that, as such I am teaching her the raw basics of how to apply her magic to the outside world."

"Applications of raw magic without a conduit or molding shouldn't work like that. Raw magic is way too volatile for that." Eleanor countered.

"That is true, why do you think Louise spells keep exploding until now?" Celestia explained.

Eleanor got a thoughtful expression on her face before answering. "That's impossible, we tried forcing her magic through a elemental conduit, the conduit failed the moment Louise magic touched it."

Celestia narrowed her eyes. "A raw conduit should have worked actually." She then proceeded to look around with narrowed eyes, as soon as she was sure that they were unobserved she cast silencing spell around them as well as a illusionary wall. "Louise, stop for a moment and come to us, please." Carefully her student places the water back into the lake.

"What are you doing?" Eleanor asked varlily not trusting the Alicorn one bit.

"I think this is the perfect time we explain that one little detail that I found in you magic Louise." Celestia said to Louise, the girl still worrying about it started chewing her lips. "That you came to visit so unannounced is perfect actually."

Eleanor's eyes wandered varley between the two.

"Big sister, my magic wasn't just a problem of my affinity. I had a Geass placed on me, one that actively blocked my magic."

There was dead silence for a few moments as Eleanor recollected her thoughts at the information she just received.

"How? When? By whom?" She asked with a edge in her voice that made Louise shiver.

"We discovered it by accident during our first lessons. It was preventing Louise from coherently channeling her willpower." Celestia got a thoughtful look on her face. "She might actually be able to performs some of your kinds spells now that it is lifted but we haven't tried. I wasn't able to determine anything about its origins, it was decent in strength so the caster had experience in mind magic by pony standards, that is all I can say to their identity sadly."

"Who knows of this?"

"Only the three of us for now." Louise answered that one. "We decided to keep quiet as we have no clue who did this, it depending on what exactly it was doing it could have been applied as early as when I tried to cast my first spells."

"That is… very worrying Louise. I am proud that you managed to keep calm in this situation."

"I honestly didn't, Celestia was the one who managed to calm me down long enough." She admitted.

"Understandable." She only answered back. "If this is true that I am thankful to you Celestia."

"It was no issue, I treat any attack on my studentls as a personal offense that will be punished harshly." Celestia promised. "It is slightly infuriating, normally I would have much more resources to call upon to deal with this problem. For now I can only place my trust in you Eleanor."

"If someone in the school is responsible then whoever is already knows. I need to in to inform mother immediately." Eleanor thought a bit more. "Maybe it would be smart to get Louise home, the school is unlikely to guarantee her safety right now."

"I must disagree, the school is probably the safest place for her at the moment." Celestia protested.

"Explain."

"Whoever it was probably wasn't targeting Louise directly as it would make no sense to place mind magic on a child. More than likely this was a attack at the Vallière family as a whole. The culpid already infiltrated you once so there isn't much stopping them from doing it again." Celestia clarified. "A attack on the school would trigger a nationwide response considering how many nobles are here. That coupled with Louise probably not being the primary target gives her a screen of security."

"I don't like the 'probably' in there." Eleanor commented.

"What is there to gain from Louise suffering such massive failures in magic over and over?" Celestia countered.

After some thinking Eleanor answered. "The only thing I can immediately think of is prestige, however it would be a minor los at best. Currently the house Vallière is held stable by its relationship to the crown and by the titles of our mother." A laugh escaped her. "And it would take far more than a child being incapable of magic to undermine That."

Minutes passed as Eleanor was thinking over the issue. She stole a few glances at Celestia's hoof where the familiar runes were inscribed. "Continue to keep quiet and train Louise in defensive magic as soon as possible, I will go back to the mansion post haste. Don't try anything with normal magic yet. On the off chance that the culpid still doesn't know we need to keep it that way as long as possible."

"Agreed."

Louise was watching the exchange tense, never before had she seen her mentor or her sister with such attitudes, it scared her a bit how quickly they could adjust and analyse matters. It intimidated her somewhat but she promised that one day she would gain the same competence, for Henrietta she could be nothing less.

"Let's continue where we left of, and don't forget to pretend being angry at me." Celestia told the still rabbit with a wink.

"Oh don't worry, I have enough insults left for you, you bleach fured hellspawn." Eleanor shouted. Celestia lifted the spells and Louise went back to practicing.

She nearly managed 5 minutes with 3 orbs even.

Later in the evening the spell wore of and Eleanor was about to enter the chariot back home.

"Behave tiny Louise." She said giving her a little squeeze on the cheek. "And you!" She turned to Celestia. "You better take good care of her."

"You have my word as teacher." Celestia said with a mock salute, the hidden meaning was delivered.

With that her Eleanor left the academy.

"Well, that was a eventful day."

"Agreed." Louise said exhausted.

"We need to remember to add one day to your duties as maid, after all you skipped those today."

"What?!" Louise shouted in protest. "But we did different more important things!"

"We could always ask your sister on her opinion. That reminds me we haven't told her about that fiasco a few days ago, have we?"

Louise mumbled about hellish teachers all the way back to her room.
