"I l-love you sis," Luna smiled.
"Don't say that," Celestia begged, "I know of a way... just don't talk, conserve your breath... My crown! Ditzy, Hold on!"
Ditzy grabbed Celestia's hoof and teleported with her back to Celestia's room. Celestia gentally set down Luna then franticly ransacked her room for her crown.
"Where is it," Celestia yelled as Luna's breath quickened, "Where the buck is it!"
"Here," Ditzy exclaimed, taking it from Celestia's bed and throwing it to her.
Celestia caught it then pulled out a knife. She held the knife against her hoof, then to the shock of Ditzy, sliced her hoof followed by a grunt in pain.
"What are you doing," Ditzy exclaimed as Celestia rubbed her blood on the crown.
"Just wait a minute," Celestia shakingly growled, trying to keep from snapping at Ditzy.
Ditzy took the hint and hushed up as the crown began to slightly glow. As it glowed, Celestia put the crown on the fading Luna. 
Luna's breath quickened... the crown's glow transferred to her... then it stopped and Luna jolted awake, the hole in her chest was gone.
"Luna," Celestia cried as she wrapped her hooves around Luna in a hug.
"What just happened," Luna said in shock, "I thought I was dead... did you two die?"
"No, far from it little sis," Celestia replied after releasing her Luna, but then looked at her an seriously, "But I need you to answer me this; are you seeing any strange things , do you feel sad, or anything that seems out of the ordinary."
"No."
"I have a question," Ditzy interjected, "What the hay just happened!!!"
"I revived her," Celestia replied, "With my Apple."
"Apple? I thought the Tempmares had that."
"There is more than one Apple, each holding it's own special ability; however, power doesn't come without a price. For example, my crown has the ability to save ponies from death, but there is a chance that it can cause emotional instability or terrible hallucinations. Luckily, all it seems to have done this time was change Luna's mane."
"My mane," Luna repeated, then looked and saw that her mane had transformed from its ponylike, horsehair mane to a misty ,wavy mane, like her sister's, "Wow, this... this is different."
"You get use to it, but be glad your not seeing hallucinations."
"Wait, back it up a bit," Ditzy realized and had a slight anger in her voice, "You have a magical object that can revive ponies!"
"I know what you're thinking," Celestia soothingly said, "but I said that it can save ponies from death, not revive them... You do know I truly am sorry about that."
Ditzy let out a sigh, "I know. I wish there could have been a way to save him... oh well, no point on dreading what could have been. I'm going to go home."
"I should probably find Twilight and her friends ," Celestia declared, "Just to make sure nothing has happened to them."
Ditzy nodded and started to walk down the stairs. She continued her way down until Shining and Edward came from downstairs and bumped into her.
"You," Shining exclaimed and pulled out his pistol.
"Relax," Ditzy said, "I'm not your enemy anymore... hey, wasn't that empty?"
Shining looked at his gun, then, in embarrassment, put it back in its holster.
"Where's Celestia," Edward asked.
"Up in her room with Luna," Ditzy replied, "Why?"
"We got something to  tell her," Shining said.
"What?"
"Discord is free."
