Luna’s POV:

I watch as Lance is introduced to the Elements of Harmony. I walk up behind him and see the others bowing. Lance looks around and sees me. He quickly jumps up and goes into a sharp salute. “Lance at ease,” I said. As I say that he puts both hands behind his back and his legs spread apart. “Sergeant Lance I want to personally thank you for the help in the defense of Canterlot,” I said. “I was defending the innocent ma’am.” Instantly replied Lance. “Lance you don’t have to act so formally around me. I am easy going. You don’t have to go all military on me” I say. When I say that he relaxes and blushes while rubbing the back of his neck. “Sorry ma’am it is just after so many years in the military it is like muscle memory to me,” Lance says. “By the way, Lance just call me Luna,” I say. “Ok ma... I mean Luna,” Lance replies quickly correcting himself. “Lance I would like to have a personal bodyguard. But I have yet to find one. Would you like to fill in that position Lance?” I ask. Lance returns to a solute. “I would love to Luna. By the way, thanks for putting me in you bed while you were gone.” He said. I blush. “How did you figure that out,” I ask embarrassed. “Well, the room was like the night sky. By the way which is my favorite time just so you know. And I say that tattoo on you flank so it was relatively easy to what I normally do.” I look astounded. Another person who loves the night. Maybe I and he will get along very well.

Lance’s POV:

I am standing beside Luna at Cadences and Shining Armor’s wedding. I was told who it was by Luna. I have my M4A1 Assault Rifle out and at attention by Luna’s side. “Do you Princess Mi Amora Cadenza...Cadence is just fine.” Cadence interrupted Celestia. “Ok, do you Cadence take Shinning Armor as you husband,” Celestia said. “I do.” said Cadence. “And do you...I do.”" said Shining as he interrupted Celestia. “I now pronounce you mare and stallion. You may kiss the bride.” Celestia says as they both kiss. I start to clap along with everybody else. I am by the dance floor with Luna as I ask her. “Do you want to dance,” I say. Luna blushes as she answers. “Sure,” replies Luna. We both go out on the dance floor and start to dance.

“You are a really good dancer Luna,” I say. “You are not half bad yourself Lance.” Says Luna. I blush but it is hidden behind my mask. “Thanks,” I say. As we go off the dance floor I get dragged to the stage by Pinkiepie and I'm told to sing. " Ahem I just want to say that the song I will be singing is called Ashes of Eden by Breaking Benjamin. OK hit it."

Will the faithful be rewarded
When we come to the end
Will I miss the final warning
From the lie that I have lived
Is there anybody calling
I can see the soul within
And I am not worthy
I am not worthy of this
Are you with me after all
Why can't I hear you
Are you with me through it all
Then why can't I feel you
Stay with me, don't let me go
Because there's nothing left at all
Stay with me, don't let me go
Until the Ashes of Eden fall
Will the darkness fall upon me
When the air is growing thin
Will the light begin to pull me
To it's everlasting will
I can hear the voices haunting
There is nothing left to fear
And I am still calling
I am still calling for you
Are you with me after all
Then why can't I hear you
Are you with me through it all
Then why can't I feel you
Stay with me, don't let me go
Because there's nothing left at all
Stay with me, don't let me go
Until the Ashes of Eden fall
When I paused to look up I see that some of the ponies are crying, some are dancing softly, and some are...blushing
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Why can't I hear you
Stay with me, don't let me go
Because there's nothing left at all
Stay with me, don't let me go
Until the Ashes of Eden fall
Stay with me, take my hand
Heavens above me, don't let me go (background)
Shine until there's nothing left but you
Stay with me, take my hand
Heavens above me, don't let me go (background)
Shine until there's nothing left but you
When the song ended all of the ponies stomped and cried out at me. When I got off the stage Celestia walked up to me and I stood at attention in front of her. "That was amazing singing Lance." She told me. "Thank you ma'am" I replied. “I also want to thank you for helping us in our time of need Lance.” Celestia thanks. “You're welcome ma'am,” I respond like a robot. "Don't call me ma'am Lance call me Celestia." She told me. “I also want to appoint you now officially as Luna’s personal bodyguard,” Celestia told me. “I am happy to accept you offer your majesty,” I said. “Please, no formal stuff it really gives me a headache.” Said Celestia while rubbing her hooves on her head. “HEY LUNA,” I called. “Yes Lance?” said Luna. “I have officially been appointed your personal bodyguard by Celestia as well,” I said. Luna let out a squeal of joy. I looked confused. “Aren't equines supposed to whinny other than squeal?” I said confusingly. “Sometimes we do. Sometimes we don’t.” Said Luna. “Anyways we should be getting ready for the Night Court,” Luna said.“Ok. Ready when you are.” I replied while pulling the slide back on my M4.

But first this random thing.

"Um... what was that?" Luna asked. "I have no fucking clue," I replied. Both I and luna just stood there in just a state of unknowing and were just dumbfounded at what we saw.
