The Royal Sisters woke up Megan and performed their duties as morning came to Equestia with her witnessing the sun and moon moving. Just after having breakfast, Luna was ready to take Megan back home, but then Twilight showed up to mention what she and her friends were building over by the Rainbow Bridge.
"I would like to announce that the portal over by the Rainbow Bridge has finally been completed." said Twilight.
"So that's what I saw when I came here last night." replied Megan.
Feeling surprised, Twilight then said, "Megan, I didn't realize that you were here last night, because I was to cross it later on to tell you about it, but seeing that you're here, that's no longer the case."
Megan responded with, "The only reason I was here last night was because Princess Luna brought me over to share her secret of when she was Nightmare Moon."
"I don't see why she had to tell you that." replied Twilight.
Luna weighed in with, "I just felt that since she was someone important, it would only be right that she would know about that."
"I feel that you should get your friends to help Luna apologize and asks for forgiveness for all her actions she did as Nightmare Moon so that she won't have to feel ridiculed when doing so." explained Megan.
Twilight then said, "Don't worry, I will do that, but now I want to show you what was built by the Rainbow Bridge."
Twilight, Celestia, and Luna flew Megan over to where the Rainbow Bridge was to show what was being built there.
"With this portal, you and your siblings can now cross into Equestria without the need of any pegasus or alicorn to bring you." explained Twilight.
Megan then asked, "I won't turn into anything when I cross this portal as you did when you entered that special world to originally go after Sunset Shimmer for taking your crown?"
Twilight then answered, "We tested this a few times when crossing into your world, and I even looked into the river to see if I looked different after seeing my reflection, and as it turned out, that wasn't the case."
Megan raised up another question and asked, "Will this portal only be open at certain times?"
Twilight answered back with, "Just like the portal that goes to that special world, I used a spell that will make it always work, so that you and your siblings can come in anytime you want to."
Megan then waved good-bye and crossed the portal to notice Danny and Molly waiting for her and feeling surprised that she didn't have any pony there to take her back.
Danny asked, "What were you doing in Equestria last night?"
Megan answered, "I was taken there last night by Princess Luna, who wanted to tell me her darkest secret."
Molly then asked, "What was that dark secret she was hiding?"
Megan then explained, "First of all, this is supposed to be a secret, so please don't share this with anyone. Also, don't freak out on what I'm going to tell you."
They both promised to keep their lips sealed about it as well as not make any huge reactions as Megan told them that Luna was Nightmare Moon.
Molly thought, "I always believed that Princess Luna was very nice, but hearing this makes me as there might have been something wrong with her at one point."
Danny weighed in with, "What exactly made her become Nightmare Moon?"
Megan answered back with, "She mentioned to me that it was a buildup of her negative emotions that occurred over time that made her into that very monster."
Molly then asked, "How come she still gets to sit beside Princess Celestia even after what she went through?"
Megan replied with, "That's because she still felt that even as that monster, she was still her sister, and she just couldn't kill her no matter what. Also, she felt that her sister wasn't solely responsible for her actions, and even felt that what she went through in that form was punishment enough."
Changing the subject, Danny then decided to ask, "Now, I would like to know how you managed to get back here without the need of any pegasi or alicorn in that matter?"
Megan answered, "Twilight just built a portal that will allow for us to go to Equestria whenever we want to on our own, and from what I was told, crossing this portal won't turn us into ponies when we enter it."
The next day, the three decided to go through the portal to enter Equestria only to notice Twilight along with both Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy as if they were expecting them.
Twilight said, "We would like you three to hop on each of us, and we'll take you over to the Castle of the Two Sisters, because they would like to have you all there."
As Megan got on Twilight, Danny then shouted, "I call riding on Rainbow Dash, while you have to take Fluttershy."
Molly then said, "I was going to ride on Fluttershy anyway."
Although Danny wanted Rainbow Dash to fly fast and even do a sonic rainboom, she claimed that she it was best it wouldn't be done especially since it was never done with someone riding her. They all landed on the balcony of the castle as Twilight joined the other royals along with Megan. Danny and Molly went with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy to join the rest of the Mane 6 nearby. Meanwhile, the reformed villains stood at the balcony as well. Even Sunset Shimmer herself came and showed Megan a picture in her journal that she uses to communicate with Twilight to give her an idea of what she looked when humanized. After all of that, Celestia approaches the balcony to give her opening speech.
"I would like all citizens of Equestria to hear what my sister has to say to all of you." said Celestia.
Luna then said over the crowd, "I'm very sorry for all the things I did to all of you when I was Nightmare Moon. Ever since I became myself again, I have been feeling very remorseful especially after what I went through in that form. I just couldn't get over all the negativity I had to face that lead me to becoming such a monster, but that has changed ever since. Now, I have changed, and I'm a much different pony than I was before. In return, I will ask for all of you to forgive me."
The crowd started to get angry towards her until Celestia fired back with, "The last thing my sister needs is to be ridiculed after what she had to go through. More importantly, I could have originally stopped her from taking that form if I cared for her when she really needed it, but I didn't, which is what lead her to becoming such in first place making it sort of my fault.
Maybe it was wrong to keep it a secret from most of you, but at the time, I thought it would be good for Luna's sake if only a few actually knew about it, but I know I see that in the long run, it turned into a bad idea. Even though she almost did try to kill me, I couldn't try to kill her back and still forgave her, and I want the rest of you to do the same for her. On a related note, if I became my dark side known as Daybreaker and did a number of bad things to you, I would have also apologized and ask for forgiveness."
Princess Cadence came next and spoke. "She may have been a monster, but she is still my aunt, nonetheless. Even I learned that anyone could have a dark side no matter who. Sometimes, the positives can outweigh the negatives. If we always looked at everyone in a negative way, then we could never trust anyone."
Twilight was ready to take the stand and said, "You have forgiven those such as Discord, Trixie, Starlight Glimmer, and Thorax despite what they were known for doing. I even forgave Sunset Shimmer and Tempest Shadow for what they did to me, and I have been friends with them since. I don't see why Princess Luna can't be forgiven the same way!"
Megan was then told to speak out and mentioned, "Being a human, we are known for making mistakes, but we can always learn from them. I'm not saying that I'm without flaws, but I don't let that get in the way of how I should live my life. As a matter of fact, this whole announcement was my idea, and I felt that if Princess Luna had the support from others to back her up, she wouldn't have to feel the fear of being persecuted for such. The last thing she needs right now is more hatred, because that's what got her to become Nightmare Moon in the first place. What I'm asking all of you to do right now is to forgive her after she gave her apology and welcome her with a clean slate as she has changed ever since. BTW, having her enter your dreams and trying to help some of you overcome your nightmares is actually one of the things she does to redeem herself."
The crowd starts to have mixed reactions after hearing each of them, but then Megan decides to place her phone by the microphone with the song, I'll Stand by You, by The Pretenders and had everyone else sing the song, which started to help Luna feel better about herself as everyone forgave her in the end. Although Luna looked like she had tears, they wear tears of joy.
After going through though that event Luna then said, "Now, that it doesn't need to be a secret anymore, I'm starting to feel much better about no longer having to hide it, and I couldn't have done it with you, Megan."
Megan then replied with, "You're welcomed for agreeing to go along with this, and that's what friends are for."
The three each hugged and petted each of the royal ponies and then waved good-bye as they were taken back to the portal by the same ponies that brought them so that they can go back home.
