Three months had passed since the ultimatum between Royal sisters. Canterlot was being restored since the initial battle with Solar Flare, and Twilight was recovering. Although she had lost a her right front limb when she confronted her former teacher, she gotten a new one made out of high grade metals with a little bit gold and silver in the mix as well.
Luna oversaw the funeral of her sister, and designed her coffin personally. After the funeral Luna became distant. She stopped socializing, and would only really leave her bedroom to eat at night, all the while keeping the sun and the moon going.

Twilight, Cadence, and Shining Armor all came up to Luna's bedroom door.
"Luna... Are you there?", Twilight asked.
There was no response.
"Auntie Luna... Please. We know this has been hard on you. It's been hard on all of us. We all know you didn't have a choice, and we would have never wished this on you.", Cadence said trying to reassure her aunt.
Quiet still.
"She has been in there for three days. Luna are you there? We just want to make sure you are alright okay.", Shining Armor said starting to become a bit concerned.
No response.
"Now Luna don't make me smash down that door now. You know I have an awesome right hoof now, and I can hit pretty hard.", Twilight joked trying to lighten the mood.
The silence was starting to become awkward for the three of them.
"Guess you're not in the mood for jokes then... Which is understandable.", Twilight said with the smile she had leaving her face.
"Luna if you are in there, I'm letting you know we're coming in."
Shining Armor said as he took a key out of the pocket on his uniform unlocking the door opening it slowly.
"Luna? Are you in here?", Shining Armor asked.
He looked around. The place was a mess. It looked like Luna hadn't tidied up her room in awhile.
The three noticed a bulge coming from underneath the covers of Luna's bed.
Twilight approached it,
"Luna I know you're upset... We all are... Believe me when I say we all..."
Twilight had stopped mid sentence because she noticed something. She had an eye for these sort of things. There was something... Off about the bulge under the covers. So she moved the covers back to reveal that it was just pillows.
Twilight's eyes widened as she said,"Oh no..."
"What!?!", Cadence said in mixture of surprise and confusion.
"Cadence! Twilight! Over here!", Shining Armor yelled calling them over to corner of the room.
Shining showed them some of the books discarded throughout the room. They were books on theories. Time travel, alternate dimensions, universes, timelines you name it. If had something to do with space and time it was there.
"Do you think she intends to... What if she's already...", Cadence said as several thoughts of what Luna could possibly plan to do entered her mind.
"She can't be! The sun and moon are still going.", Shining Armor reasoned.
"All the same, we still need to find her.", said Twilight.
"Agreed. I'll gather our fastest pegasi. ", Shining Armor said as he went off to organize a search party.
Twilight saw tears welling up in Cadence's eyes and went over to comfort her.
"Hey. It will be alright okay. We will find her. You will not lose your last blood relative, I promise I will ensure that.",
Twilight said hugging Cadence and reassuring her.
They all knew what had to be done. They had to find Luna before she did something that she would regret.

Luna stood upon the tallest mountain peak in world. She had been waiting here for a little over two days. Waiting for something to arrive.
Then it happened.
"There you are." Luna said seemingly expecting this to happen.
A swirling vortex of energy appeared. Luna had read about this event. This energy release only happened once every decade. It was part of the reason their world was the way it was. It was the excess energy of other universes, and if one knew how to use it, they could change the very fabric of reality.
"Now...", Luna said to herself. "Now I can set things right."
The end... For now...
