It had not been long since the Elements of Harmony had defeated Nightmare Moon. Luna had finally returned to the luxury of Canterlot and her castle.
Luna was exploring the castle and stumbled upon her sisters suite. There was a locked chest near her bedside that even her magic couldn’t break. As she continued to investigate, she heard footsteps from the staircase down the right of the hallway. Luna walked casually out into the hallway and noticed a servant mare coming over the top of the stairs. This mare confronted Luna, holding a scroll in her mouth and put it on the floor.
“Celestia asks if you could come to dinner, Luna.” the young mare said.
“I’ll be right down..” Luna replied softly. The servant went the opposite way Luna did down the staircase. Luna entered the mess hall, to where a fabulous feast had been laid in her honor. She took a seat opposite of Celestia, and gazed at what was in front of her; Salads, pastas, and even royal deserts, all to her liking. She sighed softly and began eating some salad slowly. Celestia walked over and nuzzled Luna softly and let out a small smile.
“Is something the matter?” She asked, watching Luna eat.
“Just.. I havn’t sat down at this table for ages.. Brings back some memories.” Luna said softly. Celestia levitated over a scroll in front of Luna, opening it up. Luna reading it softly to herself. After a moment, Luna looked up at Celestia with questioning eyes.
“Who is this, ‘Twilight Sparkle’?” Luna asked. Celestia’s eyes lighted up as she heard the students name. She took back the scroll out of Luna’s reach, and put it away.
“Twilight Sparkle? She’s my star pupil and ‘Faithful Student’ to me. She was one of the Main Six that freed you from your ‘Nightmare’ state. She is one of the six Elements of Harmony. The Element of Magic!” Celestia exclaimed, seeming that she could rant about her for hours!
“C-Could I meet my saviors? I had only caught a glimpse of them.. Tell me more about Twilight, your student.” Luna said softly. Celestia levitated her chest over and opened it. It was filled with tons and tons of letters from Twilight. Luna ran over and read them, in awe of this great character. But then, she felt something. Something make her heart feel, odd. Luna shook it off and ran off into her room with the scrolls, loving every word that was written on the paper. She felt warmth, and love entice her heart as she grew breathless with every word she read. Was this love she was feeling, or is it only the beginning of something even bigger. Running down the stairs to Celestia, with bags following behind with her magic. Celestia looked at her like she had gone insane, but she let out a smile and walked over to her.
“Luna, you can go visit them tomorrow. I’ll let them know in advance.” She said.
“Okay Celestia.. Thank you. I’ll head off to bed for the night.” Luna said, her adrenaline had gone away from the rush from her room. As she tried to lay in her bed, she kept tossing from side to side. Suddenly, it hit her. She was anti-social and very shy when in those situations. She didn’t talk to most anyone for the past thousand years on the moon. Leaving her, with no social skills. Pointless, she gave up all hope of even talking to anypony else. She got up and walked over to her mirror to look at her sad self, and noticed her reflection.
“I could practice talking to myself..” she thought. Letting off a small smile, she bowed her head at the mirror, and began talking to it.
