It was exquisitely empty. The land was a pale gray, covered with dust, rocks, and the mammoth indents of craters. The horizon was much closer than it should have been, which threw off her sense of distance nauseatingly. The planet - Equus in Equestrian, Ixkla in Hemipid, Axion in Avian, etc - hovered like an enormous blue-green moon in the sky, four times larger than she felt it should have been. The sky was black as pitch and devoid of any stars except for one, and that star - the sun - burned steady in the corner of her vision.
As she walked towards her target, Twilight noted that her hooves left prints on the ground, which she knew would never go away. It was weird to feel no air against her coat, to feel utter vacuum around herself, to be able to leap so far but not fly at all, yet still be able to breathe and operate normally thanks to some bizarre lunar magic.
The black figure of Chrysalis sat on her haunches, a stunned look on her face. Twilight opened her mouth and quivered her vocal cords, but no sound came out. The changeling queen tilted her head, then got up and trotted over to Twilight. She lowered her horn to her's, sparked it with green, then sat back.
'Can you hear me?' she asked right into her brain's hearing center.
'Oh you've done it this time!' she raged. 'What were you thinking?!'
'Relax, Twily! She won't leave us up here that long, will she?'
'Why did you even decide to offend Celestia like that?'
'It's not like I knew she could banish us to the moon! I thought she needed the Elements of Harmony to do that.'
'And it's not like she's had a thousand years since then to figure out how to do it without!' Twilight gritted her teeth and pawed the ground.
'Well I'm sorry, but I stand by what I said!'
Were there any air around, Twilight would've been sputtering. All the same, spittle came out of her mouth and tried to freeze, boil, sublimate and deposit all at once in the vacuum. 'Stand by what you said?! You accused Celestia of sleeping with her sister!'
There was a pause where Chrysalis stared at her intensely. Then she turned away with what might've been a huff, her mane flying in some odd slow motion thanks to the low gravity. 'I regret nothing!'
