1000 Years Ago

Back to Today

After Luna had finished telling her story, she looked up at Celestia. She stared at her for a moment, then started bawling as she grabbed her into a hug. Celestia let Luna cry, then asked, "How long did you harbor these feelings of despise for me?"

"From that talk with Sombra to when I was bested by the Mane 6." Luna said sniffling

"So, you truly felt that I had given you the night just to keep you down? And you believed it for over a thousand years?" asked Celestia

"I did, Celestia." said Luna, who started sobbing again.

"I see." said Celestia "Do you still feel that way?"

"No, my sister, I know you'd never be that cruel!" said Luna

"So, it's all because you fell for Sombra's words?" asked Celestia

"Yes, I'm so sorry I fell for it, Celestia. I shouldn't have fallen for it..." said Luna between tears. Celestia let Luna cry for a moment, then said, "Luna?"

"Y-yes?"

"I just wanted to say, I understand."

"H-huh??" asked Luna, who was clearly expecting a different response.

"If I had been in that situation, I don't think I could've resisted those words either. I'm proud that you were able to think that strongly of me for as long as you did, even with everything Sombra said. I've already forgiven you for the Nightmare Moon incident, but I'll say it one more time: I forgive you." said Celestia

"Thank you, dear sister..." said Luna. The two sat there for a while, untill 6 bell tolls were heard. At that point, Luna gasped and said, "It's six??? The sun isn't up yet!"

"I realize this, Luna." said Celestia

"Well, can you raise the sun? Like right now???" said Luna in panic. Celestia horn then started to glow. However, the body that was moving wasn't the sun, but rather the moon! Once the moon was lowered, Celestia turned to Luna and asked, "Would you like to raise the sun this time?"

Luna gasped and said, "Really? You're asking me if I wish to?"

"I feel that you should at least try it once." Celestia said calmly

"But, is that even possible??"

Celestia shrugged and said, "Why not? I raised both the sun and the moon for a thousand years after you left."

"I... I would be honored to do so!"

"Then make it so."

Luna nodded, and her horn began to glow. At first, it seemed to be too much for Luna to handle. After a minute though, light started streaking across the town, awakening Equestria once more. After it was raised, Luna looked at Celestia and nodded. Celestia nodded back, and Luna flew off, ready to raise the moon again when the time came. Celestia watched her leave, then looked down, pondering all that had transpired during the previous night.

Well, the story itself was fine, but you could tell that it was written in a day. (Glad you won though. ) I'll give it a thumbs up on principle.
