//------------------------------// // Flying Through Shooting Stars // Story: No Longer Living on the Moon // by WingBeatz //------------------------------// Luna spread her wings wide and lifted off the ground. In one quick swoop she was flying upwards into the night sky. Celestia followed her. "Sister where are you going?!" Luna looked down at her and yelled, "If you will not banish me I will banish myself! I do not wish for any more harm to come because of me..." She shot up farther, and faster. The moon was gradually getting closer. "Luna no! I will not allow this! I cannot survive without my sister! I am giving you no choice! Please go back to the ground." Celestia flapped harder and harder but she wasn't gaining much. "Then I will. I hate life, and the terrible beings you and your petty servants are! You want me back on the ground? Than it's no different from going to the moon!" She stopped and hung in mid air while gravity delayed to catch up with her. Suddenly she started to fall. She was gaining speed and slowly closed her eyes, as if accepting her fate. "No..." Celestia whispered. "No!" She raced after her trying to catch her before she hit the ground. But she was too late. To her it was all in slow motion. The stop, the fall, the ground and how quickly it approached. Luna opened her eyes once more to the beautiful face of the one she loved closest. "I love you Tia." "KRAK!" The sound a pony's neck breaking under the weight of herself. The sudden way the dark blue alicorn slumped over, dead and unmoving. Celestia gasped and stood, not knowing what to do next. Her sister. The only thing that she had left to hold onto, that let her sleep at night and know she was right there, was gone. She wasn't there anymore. She fell to the dirt and cried. She screamed over and over letting out the pain of a thousand years. Luna was permanently on the moon.
