Holocron

Luna looked up at the four blue robed guards and their Tesla spears as they marched into the holding cell and disabled the energy shield that held her in. Luna rose wordlessly and followed them with her eyes foreword and paying attention to everything. They arrived at a guest building near the Jedi temple that Luna assumed they were to stay in. Luna was lead to a two person room with two one person beds on opposite sides of the room. Celstia entered a moment later and the guards left the room but stood guard outside the door.

Luna sighed sadly, guiltridden by having deceived her sister for so long. Celestia hugged trying to comfort her.

“What’s wrong Luna? What’s bothering you?”

“It seems that whenever I try to do something good, I only end up hurting you and everyone else.” Luna said hugging her sister back, “I just want to help someone for once. One time will be enough for me. I just want to stop harming the ponies I care about.”

“Luna. You need to stop blaming yourself for every bad thing that happens. I don’t know why you went to that place but I know you didn’t want those... Sith to escape. You are a good pony Luna, no matter who raised you or how. You did those things back then because you were taught there was nothing wrong with it, and you turned against that. You found your way home. You found your way to the light.”

“I just don’t know what to do. Nightmare Moon only happened because I opened the holocron, I felt that the knowledge inside would allow me to be better able to help those in Sombras control. It took some time but it overcame me eventually. If I had just left it alone that never would have happened, you wouldnt have had to send me away, I never would have betrayed you.”

“Just rest Luna, you need to sleep.”

“I don’t know if I can. Not with my mind so scattered.”

“Then tell me more about that stallion that was taken by the Sith like you were. What did you to do besides kill things?”

Luna actually blushed as the memories came up. They had grown very close after all that time, many actually thought they were married, that memory only made her blush darken. Celestial noticed this and grinned, oh how she would tease her for this. She began to giggle, she ended up just laughing, not hard laughing and not so loud that the guards outside could hear.

“Just lay down and imagine he’s there next to you.” Celestia giggled. “That may help you.”

“SISTER!” Luna yelled, muffling the sound with her magic.

But Celestia had already laid down on one of the beds and said “good night”. So Luna decided it best to do the same. She crawled into the bed but instead sat with her hind legs crossed and began meditating. Not on anything in particular, just trying to clear her head. She began to focus on the force, and used it to center her being, to calm her spirit and to more deeply connect her to the things around her.

She sensed something, very soon she fell asleep focusing on it.


Felucia

His heart began to beat once more. Pumping the life giving liquid through his veins and bringing back to him his life. His body began to move again. He could have the freedom of motion again. His eyes slid open to reveal to him the dense canopy above, through which the sun shone. The quadruped equine Sith got to his hooves as he observed his surroundings. Heavy undergrowth and brush to the point where only insects, and the most skilled Jedi or Sith would be able to get through surrounded him. He stood in a small bed of earth where the plants did not grow, to his left lay his robes and overcoat as well as his lightsaber and holocron.

Nunrad proceeded to adorn his robes and his outer hooded robe and clip the lightsaber to his belt. He pulled the black hood up and smiled, not a smile of malice but a genuine happy smile. The first thing he uttered was a name, the name of the pony he loved, the name of the pony who loved him.

“Luna.” He said. “I will find my way back to you, I promise.”


Luna sat bolt upright in bed, not out of fright but out of joy. She looked out at the stars. She smiled and wiped a stray tear from her eye. This tear was one of extreme happiness.

“He’s alive.” She whispered.

She got up out of bed and looked at the star that Felucia orbited. “I will find you. I promise.”
