Chapter one - Luna's new responibility

999 years ago

Princess Luna looked around the large, open cave. "This..." Princess Celestia, who stood beside her sister on one of the high metal belconys, started to say. "This is the Magic Factory, and you are now in charge of it Luna."

Luna looked at her older sister with shock and suprise. "Why me sister? Their must be somepony else who could do a better job runing this than me.. Like you!"

Celestia shook her head as she replyed, "I already over see the secret Rainbow Factory." Celestia extended a wing over her sister. "Besides, i know you will do an amazing job."

Turning around and walking into the room behind where the sisters where just standing, Celestia used her magic to pull a large rolled up scroll from a shelf beside a large dark maple wod desk. Unrolling the scroll, Luna saw that it was a map of the whole factory. "This is just a map of the main work floor as well as the hallways that are under this floor. "Here," Celestia pointed her hoof at a large open part that Luna asumed was the large cave area they had just been standing above. "Is the work floor. The scientist's here create and test new spells on subjects."

Luna looked up at her sister in horror as she finished her simple statment. "Why would we use them as test subjects?! Why is something this horrible happening to other ponyies!?"

Celestia didnt flinch at Luna's words but instead simple said "The unicorns that preform the tests have to cast a spell everytime before hand so they wont be affected. And the test subjects that we use are ponys and peagus that have comited crimes so their deaths wont be on our hooves." Luna still didn't look convinced so Celestia continued. "Besides, the death rate here is very low. For every 500 experiemnts, only one or two deaths occure." Celestia contuned explaining the different areas of the factory. After another half hour of exploring the Magic Factory, the two sisters where once again standing on the metal belcony.

"So Luna, what do you think now that you know a bit more about this place." Princess Celestia questioned her younger sister.

"I.. I guess i can do it. But when the time comes, I will most likely pass it on to somepony else." Princess Luna said to a nodding Celestia.

"I understand sister, i would perfer if that somepony was an alicorn and that i too agreeded that they could do the job." Luna nodded along with her sister in agreement but kept her thoughts to her self. And may that somepony be strong enough in heart to do this job as I am not as strong as I thought myself to be.

And with that thought in mind, Luna bid her sister good bye as she teleported back to the castle before trotting back into the office and sitting down on the black leather chair. Studing the map her sister had given her once again, Luna used her magic to pour herself a small glass of hard cider. It was gonig to be a long night.

***

"Good morning miss- i mean Princess Luna!" A black unicorn mare with a lovely deep green mane greeted Luna when she trotted to the experiment portion of cave. "What can I- I mean, what can we do for this this evening?"

Luna cast a quick glance around before leaning in close to the unicorn and whispering "Meet me in my office in 10 minutes" into her perked ears. Not waiting to see the mares facal reaction, Luna turned and trotted to an open area of the cave and spread her wings. With a short but powerful whosh, she flew the short distance up to the belcony outside her office.

"I know, i know, 'A Princess will use her royal wings in that of an emergancy.' " Luna muttered to her self, mocking her elder sisters voice. Besides Luna thought. Had i walked up the stairs like a normal pony or unicron, i would have arrived up here at the same time as that other mare and would be out of breath! How can i have a professional talk with somepony else when im almost out of breath?! Luna worried to herself as she finished the remaining hard cider in her glass.

Ten minutes later, a slight knock on Lunas office door told her that the mare she had spoken to had arrived. Using her magic, Luna opened the door. "Come in, Come in." She said to the nervious looking unicron. Motioning to one of the two fully fluffed chairs in front of her desk, Luna watched the pony as she sat down and looked around. "Im guessing your wondering why I called you here...." Luna started before leaning on the desk and looking the unicorn in the eyes.

"I called you here because im curious about your experiments and want to become involved in them." The mares mouth hung open as she attempted to say something, but only came out as unauditable sounds. "Im just curious!" Luna said as she waved a hoof back and forth in a reassuring motion.

Collecting herself, the mare opposite Luna spook. "Your a princess... I-if an experiment happened to go wrong while you where near it, Maker almighty, Your sister, Princess Celestia would surely send us to the Moon- or the Sun!"

Luna closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair, rubbing her temple with a hoof. "My dear sister will know that it is due to my own will that i will be helping with the experiments." Opening one eye, Luna looked at the unicorn before her. "Besides, it will give me a change to become more aquianted with the workers here." Letting her hoof drop from her foarhead and opening her other eye, Luna studied the mare before her. "If i may ask, who are you?"

The unicorn before Luna shifted in her seat a tad uncomforable.

"Chrysalis. Dr. Q.Chrysalis. Everyone just calls me Dr. Chrysalis" The mare said as a lose piece of hair fell inbetween her eyes to witch she blew it out of the way in a tad of annoyance.

"I look forward to working with you, Dr. Q.Chrysalis.. Dr. Chrysalis." Luna said as she held out her hoof to shake with the other mare.

When Dr. Chrysalis and Princess Luna shoke hoofs, both mares felt a mutual eagarness to start the experiments that neither of them would every think could compleatly change their lives forever.
