//------------------------------// // Proving Worthy and A Happy Ending // Story: Eternal Love // by BumbleFlow //------------------------------// Near five minutes, maybe ten pass, and the spell is complete, Lunar takes a deep breath, he fills much younger, now that his life span has extended. "I feel... Refreshed, so to speak." He looked at Luna, and she replied to him. "Great, now we can live together with one another, but I need you to come to prove yourself to my sister, for, as you know, last time you met. We were in a different situation, but now, she trusts me, and maybe she will trust you as well. Seeing as I am still mentally stable, and we are still with each other." Luna explained, and Lunar shadow nods. They fly off to the great city of Canterlot, and never have visiting in pony himself, he looked at it in awe. He hasn't even been to the castle yet, but it was a site to see for a pony who lived in PonyVille when he was young, then out to a prairie he went. So it was an amazement. Moments later Luna and Lunar Shadow reach the castle, he looks up at it's glamour and structure of the building in front of himself. His jaw had dropped from the site of seeing the castle. "Now Lunar, I want you to follow me, since it is near time for me to go to bed, we have merely few hours, and so, I want you to not get lost in this castle. It is like a maze, and not easy to find your way out once your lost deep within." Luna subtly said to Shadow. He nods, and follows Luna for ten to twenty minutes. And finally, they reach Celestia's room door, it is very large, with her cutie mark symbolized onto the door. Lunar Shadow looks up at it, and Luna lookd at Lunar, "I will go in and awaken my sister. I will get her out of the room to meet you, this time. Properly." "Alright." Lunar Shadow replies to Luna. Becoming somewhat nervous he takes a few deep breaths to calm himself. Of which does the job, since he tells himself mentally, this is for Luna. This is for Luna, for Luna. He repeats in his head, that motivation made his worries nearly disappear, and he tried to no longer think about it. Luna comes out with a very tired Celestia after two minutes of them whispering, Celestia opens the door and yawns. She has her mane not combed, never thought the day Lunar would see Celestia uncombed and only just awoken, she looked down at Lunar Shadow. "What business do you have here..." Celestia had forgotten his name. "Lunar Shadow." he replied, sternly, and reassuringly. "Alright. Mister Shadow, what business do you have here?" Celestia was not happy, she looks down at the Lunar pegasus without grace as she would her other little ponies. "Sister, you two got off a bad start because of me, how about you give him a chance, and you shall see he isn't a bad pony." Luna said to her sister as she walks past her and stands by Lunar Shadow, feeling confident. "Alright sister, I will give Mister Shadow here a second chance." Celestia said kindly. "Thank you very much princess." Lunar Shadow said to Celestia, bowing his head momentarily. "I am much obliged." Celestia says, then continues, "So, you want to prove yourself worthy of being with my sister, I presume?" "Yes princess." "Alright. But how will I know that you will not hurt her in the future?" "Well. Sister," Luna interrupts their conversation and they both look at her, she folds her ears down slightly and continues, "Whilst you have banished me from seeing Shadow, I visited him secretly, still having love for him in my heart, and it has been almost a year. And look, as you can see, my heart is not broken. In fact, I love him, more than ever." Luna blushed slightly as she said that, and her ears perked up. "Hmm.." Celestia put a hoof under her chin, thinking strongly about this for a moment. "Luna, are you sure? He is just a regular pegasus, he would never live near as long as we do." "Um, well. Actually, Luna performed a life extension spell on me a few nights ago.. So, that problem has already been resolved." He chuckled nervously. "You did? Oh Luna, not only did you go against my word to see this stallion, but you performed a life extension spell on him?" Luna simply nodded, not knowing what to say. "Well.." Celestia thought for a moment, "Since you trust him so, and that spell is very hard to reverse, I shall let him stay with you as your special some pony." Celestia goes to Luna's ear and whispers into it. Luna nods, and shakes Celestia's hoof. Lunar, not knowing really just what went on, but he shrugs and hugs Luna. "This is great." He lets go of the Lunar princess, "Thank you so much princess." "Please, since you are now Luna's special some pony, call me Tia." "Really sister?" Luna asked. "Yes sister, I am looking out for you, and want to make sure Lunar Shadow is as comfortable here in the palace as you are." "Thank you sister!" Luna and Shadow both hug Celestia with grace. "No problem my little ponies. Now go, sunrise is soon to come, I can imagine you are both tired." They both look at one another and yawn, "Yeah.." they say in unison. "But, if you do not mind, could you two sleep in separate beds?" Celestia sheepishly smiles. "Yes, uh, Tia." Lunar hesitates. They both go to Luna's room, inside it being a large room, two beds remain, one is Celestia's old bed she used as a filly and up unitl Luna was comfortable sleeping by herself, Luna goes to her bed. "Good rest Lunar Shadow." She says, and lays down on her bed, covering herself in her Lunar beddings. "Good night Luna." He yawns, and climbs into Celestia's old bed, dust puffs up in the air, and he coughs a bit. But climbs into the bed anyway, and covers himself in sunshine beddings. The day ends and Luna awakens, she starts to arise the moon. She sits by Lunar Shadow as he dreams, and wonders what the other Luna pony is currently dreaming of, but she must focus on making sure that the moon stays on it's normal cycle. The days each continue on like this, he wakes up somewhat late into the night, and they both stay with another for eternity. Making their love, eternal.
