New Moon

Something New

Weeks and months have passed, and all of the ponies have grown used to Luna. She felt right at home in the castle soon after she had spoken with Luna about why all of her friends were gone. On Nightmare Night, she avoided talking to many people personally unless they were to talk to her. She made the exception of Twilight, and was very impressed to see how could handle a situation like the one Luna was in. She will make a fine princess, Luna had thought.
But things were never still quite the same. She knew she would have to tell Twilight soon, and seriously doubted she knew that regular ponies don't live forever. There were never very many books on rhe subject, and if there were, they were extremely ancient and could be found in museums.
Months were like days. Before she knew it, it was time for Twilight to become an alicorn. She usually slept in the daytime, but Luna was wide awake, trying to think of what she would say to Twilight after her ritual of becoming a princess. She was pacing back and forth in her room, eating moon pies from her dresser. When she finally heard her big sister walking through the door of the castle, she brushed her mane and put on the appropriate accessories.
Celestia knocked Luna's door.
"It's unlocked," she said, struggling to get those tight boots on her feet. She really has grown.
When her big sister opened the door, she chuckled a bit and widened the boots with her magic.
"How did you do that?!" Luna exclaimed, seeing that the boots fit perfectly.
"You get strong after a while of raising and lowering the sun." Celstia turned and looked at the cresent moon shaped clock in Luna's room. "Now come on, it's time to go."
The sisters walked out of the castle together, getting into the pegasus-drawn carraige.
The younger sibling looked down and saw many ponies piling up into the other castle where the ritual would take place.
The carraige landed, and the two sisters walked behind the doors they should walk out of when it started.
Along all of the chatter, Luna said, "Oh, sister. I feel horrible for Twilight, it won't be as easy on her as she thinks.
"I know, dear sister," Celestia murmured, looking at a smiling Twilight with her friends oohing and aahing over her wings through the keyhole. "But it must be done. We can not change destiny."
The two sisters heard their que, and walked through the doors.
All of the chatter stopped at once, all eyes on the two goddesses.
Celstia smiled, and said excitedly, "May I present to you for the very first time, princess, Twilight Sparkle!"
After they all sung, Celestia sadly walked into the carraige with Luna and Twilight.
"Oh Celestia!" Twilight giggled. "This is so wonderful!"
Celestia just smiled at Twilight, and quickly looked away again. She was face to face with Luna, and they both shared a glance.
Twilight gasped, "Oh my...uh...you! I'm going to be staying in there?" Twilight pointed at the castle.
Celestia laughed. "Well, for a few days. The gaurds need to build a sheild for your house and help protect it."
When they got home, Celestia sighed. "Twilight? Please sit in the living room. I will show you the way. There's something we need to discuss."
