	Celestia and Luna saw from afar that all the ponies were already gathered to see this year's Summer Sun celebration. Both sisters told the ponies from Ponyville to gather on the outside, on the hills near the town's park. The ponies, knowing that such a request was unusual, were eager to see what kind of surprise their princesses prepared for them. To the ponies, the Summer Sun celebration meant that the summer was on its high: it was the longest day of the year. But to both princesses, it meant something completely different: it meant the day that Luna came back. The day that both sisters were finally reunited after one thousand years. The day when both hearts wouldn't linger for its missing pieces anymore.

The sisters kept looking from their balcony in Canterlot, being happy to be able to share with the ponies the joy that both felt. For this particular night, Luna hasn't raised the moon. It was part of the sisters' plan for the day coming. On this very much cherished day, both sun and moon would soar through the sky together. Each stellar body would shift its position to face the ponies, obscuring its partner for one slight moment. Just to resume its dance and let the other take its place. Dancing like that on this joyful day.

Both princesses hoped that this act would bring happiness and joy to all their subjects, by teaching the ponies a valuable lesson altogether: forgiveness. Princess Celestia gently nuzzled her sister's neck and asked:

"Are you ready, Lu'?" Celestia asked with a genuine smile on her face.

"I'm ready, 'Tia." Luna smiled back to her sister.

Both sisters focused on their magic and soon enough, both their horns began to glimmer.

It was nearing dawn already. Nature's symphony consisted of the waking birds, happily chirping in the trees all around the ponies from Ponyville, the still active crickets also giving their share of chirps, and the most majestic without a doubt, the wind's gentle blow that ruffled itself on everypony. The sky began to lit itself; red light soon flooded the eyes of everypony present. Families hugged their fillies and colts, lovers shared the most passionate embrace; ponies everywhere were now all part of the same family. The red light soon subdued, making way for an orange tone that shone accompanied by a bluish faint light.

And so it began. The day in which both moon and sun reigned.
