Ahh. The smell of fresh night air after being trapped on the moon for... Luna probably knows that. Or is it nightmare moon now? Though the castle is in a very bad state it seems. In any case it's best to recap what just happened to me. First night was lasting longer than expected, then fighting happened between the two sisters, and when I walked into the elements room, Luna/nightmare moon tried using me as a shield before we got hit by ... Something. Then it was cold, dark, and allfully quiet. Now I'm finally back where we where hit and now I hope to get to civilization. "Best not daudle any longer." I say out loud to myself and began to go outside. It was a bit difficult due to the debris of the castle and a few wings had collapsed as well. "I always enjoyed a good challenge." I say out loud after seeing yet another collapsed hallway. But something felt off and after running into the collapsed hallway a few more times, it came to me. "I think I am going in circles. No clue how this happens. Best lay down a trail of some sort.... Magic? Good option, but I'm no good with spells. I'm no star swirl. Rocks? To many around to notice where the trail is. Hey, is that a real sword?" I say getting it from a statue. "I could use this to draw a line on the floor." I was happy and start doing just that and soon I found where I looped onto myself. "Well, this is where I looped. Time to go back." I turn around and head the way I came and finally I found my way to the throne room. "At least I can't get lost now." I say as I trot to the door and finally get outside... Only to be faced with six mares.
"Who are you, and why are doing at the castle?!" The rainbow mare asked.
"Orange Glass, and I was just exploring the old castle. Didn't find any potion ingredients though. Such a shame as well. I was hoping to find something." I replied.
"Why would you want potion supplies?" The purple one asked confused.
"Well, it's kinda my talent after all." I reply to her. "Just look at my cutie mark if you don't believe me."
And a few did just that seeing my potion bottle cutie mark.
"Orange Glass was it? Where have I heard that name from?" The purple one says thinking out loud
"Twilight dear, we don't have time for that. Remember we need to get the elements of harmony." The white mare says.
"Oh! Right. Just be careful going back" Twilight said as they continue onward. Though the pink mare took out a notebook from her mane and wrote something down. "Wait for me ok girls?" She says before going after them bouncing.
"Okay.... That was weird." I say to myself and followed the forest trail as I exited it , the sun began to rise up signaling the start of a new day. "Well, at least I found a town here." I say to myself. "And I probably need to stop that habit of speaking out loud to myself. I bet it's going to get me in some trouble." Then after a few minutes the 6 mares come back with the two princess'. And the pink one set up a party for Luna's return in less than half a minute I bet. I was thinking about going to them when I saw Luna was alone again. So I walked to her and decided to concert her. I sat down next to her and began speaking. "Good morning princess Luna. I noticed you were a bit lonely by yourself. A mare like yourself needs a friendly face to talk with."
"Indeed. It is my pleasure to see again Ms Glass. How is life treating you you..." Luna says trailing off not wanting to go further.
"I would say... It was what you went through. Cold dark and only yourself to keep company. But now that your free, I hope things change for the better and you don't let your past demons take over you once again." I say back
"I hope things change as well. Though your potions where what made a few pranks of mine funnier. I wish I had more." Luna replies remembering the good times before nightmare moon happened.
"How about the one that made Celestia "lose" her mark? If you have the stuff for it, I could wip it up in a few minutes." I suggested to her.
Luna then teleported onto the table what I needed and after a minute or two I had finished it. "Just pour this in a cup and have her drink it. The results should be shocking." I say seeing Luna getting an empty cup and putting the potion in it.
"I shall give it to my sister then. I wish you well Glass. It was good talking to you again so soon after I got free." Luna then went to Celestia and she soon drank every drop of it. And after a short minute her cutie mark faded away.
"Princess! Your mark has gone!" A random pony exclaimed. Soon enough she noticed that it was indeed gone and scanned the drops left in the cup.
"Luna... I see your tendacy to play pranks hasn't changed one bit. Though you do need to work on your timing." Celestia said and found out that negating the potion was a bit harder than what she expected. "Now, how did you aquire this potion? I know there isn't a potion shop in this town."
"Let's just say an old friend of mine gave it to me with an *Orange Glass* so to say." Luna replies giggling.
"Orange Glass you say? But she's been gone for as long as you been banished." Celestia said looking at the crowd before her eyes went wide when she looked straight at me.
"Should have booked it..." I say finding myself teleported over as both princess' looked me over.
"It is you Orange Glass. How are you still alive?" Celestia said in surprise
"I knew I heard that name before. You where the best potion maker before nightmare moon happened. No pony could do what you did for over 200 years." Twilight said realization hitting her.
"Was I really that good?" I say out loud. "But to answer your question, I was used as a shield as a rainbow light came straight for Luna here."
"You mean to say that you were sent to the moon with Luna?" Celestia said still in shock.
"So... I wasn't talking to a ghost, or memory. It was really you." Luna said hugging me.
"I'm not your stuffed animal you know." I say but I didn't want to ruin the mood more so I hugged her back.
