Episode 5: Dancing in the Moonlight

Luna stood over the balcony as she admired the beauty of her night. She then directed her watchful gaze across the city of Canterlot below. Though she now had more time to spend with her sister Celestia, she still favored being the night owl of the two. "Now seems like as good a time as any." Luna spread her wings, and took a fly over the city. She smiled whenever she saw stargazers looking through their telescopes, or young revellers celebrating at night clubs. But her favorite sight was the lovers who spent their time gazing at her masterpiece that was the night sky. Night truly was made for lovers. Luna thought with a fond smile as she flew. However, as she continued her flight, something odd caught her eye.

A ball of light soon shot up right in front of her! Luna stopped herself, and hovered in front of it. "By my night. Where did this thing come from?" Luna directed her gaze below her, and saw a lone figure standing with a sword drawn. A figure she recognized. As soon as Luna landed, the figure sheathed their blade. Blitz Surge was revealed as he stepped into the moonlight. "YOU!"

"I apologize." Blitz said with a small bow. "But I couldn't think of any more effective ways to get your attention."

Luna pouted. "You could have called our-er, my name." She then crossed her arms. "But that's not what you've done to upset me."

"And pray tell, how have I offended you?" Blitz asked with a smirk.

Luna frowned. "You stole a kiss from royalty. While that may not be an actual crime, I am nontheless insulted by such a brazen act!"

"If that's the case, how might I compensate you?" Blitz asked. "I have wronged you. So how might I give you satisfaction? I've no interest in a duel." Blitz then looked to the sky. "But it is such a lovely night. As usual. Perhaps you would prefer some company to enjoy it?"

Luna blushed! "Flattery and honeyed words will get you nowhere!"

"How about actions?" Blits bowed slightly, and offered his hand. "Might I try persuading you now?"

Luna slowly reached her hand out, and the two began dancing. "You certainly are more well-mannered than our previous encounter led me to believe."

"You're a lady are you not?" Blitz asked. "I'll treat you as such Your Highness."

Luna's blush deepened. "Such chivalry is rare in this day and age."

"Let's just say my father was a bit of a old fashioned man." Blitz said with a chuckle.

Luna giggled. "Might I have the name of the gentleman who holds fondness for the night?"

"Blitz Surge."

Luna smirked. "Fitting considering how reckless you were in stealing a kiss."

"One could still say I'm being reckelss right now in stealing a dance." Blitz said with a smirk. "But I'd say the risk is worth it." The two ceased their dancing not a few minutes later. "It was my honor to spend the night with you." Blitz then bowed.

Luna smiled. "Ours as well." Luna curtsied. "I bid you good night Blitz Surge."

Blitz then kissed Luna's hand before leaving. "Sweet dreams. Princess Luna." I look forward to our next dance.

Luna flew back to the castle, and threw herself onto her bed. A blissful smile plastered across her face. "BEST. NIGHT. EVER!"
