Before it all began.
Celesta yawned and got up out of bed. She saw her sister half-groggily watching the moon. Celestia blinked and nodded to herself. Her horn lit up as she slowly rose the sun as the sign of dawn approached. Luna looked over to her sister's window and smiled. She said something but stopped when she remembered there was glass blocking her voice. Celestia left her room, letting the sun rise the rest on it's own. Well she left the spell to go on by itself... that is what Luna and Celestia do. They can't exactly sit there all night/day and slowly rise and set the moon/sun.
"Hello dear sister." Luna chimed as she trotted into the castle. "Did you get enough sleep?"
"That's what I should be asking you. You know you don't have to sit there all night to watch the moon."
"I like to admire my hard work." She said with and unashamed smile. Celestia giggled.
"Do you want to go sleep now?"
"Oh, don't worry I used a 24-hour energy spell before walking in. I feel as if I already slept." Luna always thought intelligently. It was good that she did. The princess of the night could not think absent-mindedly. It wouldn't help in her lunar duties. Hence why Luna was best at controlling the night. "So, what are we to do today dear sister?" Celestia was not even sure...
"Have some fun." She looked over at her sister with a smile. "Take a break on our work." Luna looked at her dumbfoundedly.
"Take a break?" She almost squeaked. "Have some fun? Oh sister, I haven't done any of that in ages!!!" Luna looked scared and excited all at once. Celestia smiled and rested a hoof on Luna's shoulder.
"You remember how. Remember 'Nightmare Night?'" Luna cringed and nodded.
"That cruel holiday... I wish for no one to fear me." Luna frowned and looked down. With a slight smile she added, "but I did have fun." Celestia nodded.
"You can have fun, I'm sure." Luna beamed.
"With spiders!?" She looked happy at the idea. Celestia sighed and laughed softly.
"I'm not sure about spiders..." Luna frowned again. "But with candy, and dancing, and laughter." Luna looked outside. Taking in the idea, she nodded.
"See you then dear sister." With a smile they both walked off.
Celestia was eating a peice of cake while Twilight told her about what was going on with her crystal castle. And with how Spike was, and how Fluttershy has been ignoring some of the Friendship Meetings lately. She says Discord wanted to show her someplace. Celestia tried to hide her blush of jealousy of that. Surely he wasn't taking her on dates? She tried to forget when he handed her those flowers but it blurred her mind. He surely wasn't flirting? No, he couldn't have been. "Uhh, Celestia?"
"What? Oh, sorry Twilight. My mind wandered... you ended on where Fluttershy's been ignoring you?" Twilight's jaw dropped.
"I said that about ten minutes ago!" Celestia blushed deeper.
"Umm I was making sure I didn't forget anything I had to do...." Twilight looked at her as if she knew Celestia was lying. Celestia shuffled uncomfrotably in her seat. Twilight seemed to notice the blush because she looked away and lowered her ears. Celestia cleared her throat and spread her wings. "I better go." She flew off as the sun started to set.
She walked in to see Luna awakening from a nap. "Ah, sister, it's time to raise the moon already?" Celestia nodded as she lowered the sun to leave pink clouds at the edge of the sky. Luna frowned. "What's wrong?" Her sister knew her all too well. So she explained her troubles and sighed.
"It's nothing to worry about. I have my duties to take care of. I need to not worry about these silly things." Luna nodded
"No. If they bother you, they are indeed something to worry about." Celestia shook her head.
"Luna, I have better things to thi-" Celestia was cut off as a huge rock smashed into the castle. A large peice of building knocked her in the head and and she fell unconcious.
"SISTER!" Luna cried. A large shadow engulfed Celestia and she dissappeared. "NO!" She trotted to the hallways where the guards stood.
"Princess Luna! What's happened? We heard loud noises. Is everything alright?"
"CELESTIA HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED!" The guards exchanged glances.
"What!?" Luna nodded frantically.
"We have to look for her!" She shouted.
"But Luna! We don-"
"I said we will look for her! What I say is law!" When Tia is gone. she added in her mind. The guards looked to one another again. And as if they heard what Luna thought, they nodded. A guard stepped forward, but still did not challenge Luna.
"My princess, we understand. But we have no idea where to look! Did you see which way they even went?" Luna bit back tears. All of this was true. Everything. The guard was right. What if they never found her? She hasn't even discovered if she can raise the sun as well as the moon. What if nobody wants her to be the main princess? What if she does everything wrong? get it together Luna, she thought.
"We will search everywhere we know of, until we find my sister." But Luna's mind still raced. What was going to happen to Celestia?
