> Lunas secret > by Cynders Domain > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The first night > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a cool and starry night in Equestria and everything is calm,that is,all except for the canterlot castle...In Luna's room. Luna kept pacing back and forth like something was on her mind "If only I can talk to Tia,but shes pro-" As if on cue Celestia walks in Luna's chambers looking concerned. "Luna are you alright? I can hear you pacing from my room,I worry about you." Luna looked up at her sister and flashed a smile at her. " Thank you for caring Tia,I've actually wanted to talk to you." Celestia tilted her head "whatever for" Luna put her head back down."well I was wondering if..well could I stayupduringthedayandsleepatnight." Celestia was taken back by this. ," Why would you want to do that?!" Luna still looked down at the floor. "It's just that...I don't ever see you anymore! I came back hoping I would spend time with you but I'm not! Sometimes I feel like your ignoring me and I hate that feeling!" what used to be a nervous Luna was now a sobbing wreck. "Celestia I love you and all I ever wanted was to spend time with you even a thousand years ago thats all I wanted!" Tears were now streaming down Celestias face. she walked up and hugged Luna. "Luna I love you so much,and I'd love to spend time with you so if thats what you wish you may,as long as you have a plan to help ponies in their dreams and protect Equestria at night." Luna was practically jumping up and down. " I have a plan." Luna showed her sister a wrist band that will wake her up in those situations. Celestia smiled. "Great well I need to get back to cadence,saber,twilight,and sombra." Luna grimaced at Sombra's name which was celestias husband. He was from another world. "Tia you know I'm not comfortable around him." "Give it time Luna." "Ok,I love you Tia. Celestia smiled "I love you too,now off to bed." Luna stifled a yawn. "Goodnight" Celestia opened the door and was about to walk out,then......Luna's cell went off. > The call and confusion > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luna and celestia both turned around. Luna had a worried look. "Oh crap!" Luna ran to the desk and picked up the phone,while celestia was staring wide eyed to how Luna was acting. "Uhhh..Luna?" "Hold on.....hello?..yeah nows not a good time....yes she is...make it quick....can't you take care of that?..thank you,bye." Celestia sat there for five minutes staring into space and then shook her head. she wanted to go back to her room, but she wanted to know who Luna was talking to, celestia gave luna her phone yesterday and Luna was in her room for the rest of the day. So WHO could she POSSIBLY be talking to?"Luna who was that?" Luna looked up as fast as light and blurted out "No one sister." Celestia raised an eyebrow. "Well it sure sounded like someone." Luna had to make up a lie and fast! "it was..uh..my captain of the royal guard Moon beam." Celestia kept the same look on her face."Oh really now?" Luna got scared. "Yeah he had to tell me something and I told him I was busy,but he told anyways,and he wanted to know if I can give a talk to two misbehaving guards and I told him he can handle it." Luna was about to start sweating because Celestia didn't look amused at all. Celestia was thinking "wow that was well put how long did it take her to think of that?" Apparently she was thinking out Loud because Luna was jittery and desperately trying to think of what to say next. "Tia why do you want to know?" Celestia looked up at luna with a face that shows I wonder if she's going to tell me? "Well its just that these days you don't tell me things you always keep it to yourself and you just got your phone yesterday so I think it's peculiar that your already getting a call." Celestia didn't want to give up because she could always get a secret out of luna,but It didn't look like she was about to budge any time soon. "We'll Tia I don't think -" The phone rang again. "Who now!" Luna furiously levitated the phone to her ear. "Hello...oh hey is everything ok?......WHAT!!!!... Is she ok?!!" Luna was now in a panicked state and celestia had a confused but concerned face. "How bad is it......ok that's a relief....did he say sorry...no..I'll take card of him when I see him...yes you just might need to call the funeral planner...ok..bye." Celestia didn't know it but her mouth was slightly agape but she finally realized it when Luna pointed at her mouth. Luna looked nervous but wanted to laugh because she loved making her sister go crazy. "Tia no offense but you look so silly." Luna was laughing her sister just lowered her head and blushed. "Haha very funny Luna but who was on the phone this time?" Luna quickly shut her muzzle and shifted her hooves slightly. She didn't know how long she can keep it up tonight,she wanted her sister out! an Idea popped in her head. "Well I'm beat goodnight Tia." Celestia was getting annoyed. " Luna why won't you tell me?" Then the two sisters both heard a voice. "Yes lulu why won't you tell your sister." Luna let out a groan. She wanted to scream and say not now go away but she was tired and she didn't want to make a scene so all she said was "Oh come on!" > Nightmares and sneaking > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luna was not in a good mood,her sister was being very pushy,and now she was here...If luna could she would just start cursing and arguing,but that was unprincess like. "Luna I thought you'd be more happy to have me here." "yeah but not now! my sisters in the room and today has been stressful and you're not making it any better." Luna shouted into the air but not too loud because she didn't want to slip into the royal Canterlot voice. Celestia on the other hoof was trying to figure out who the voice was.Then the horrifying realization hit her like a hurricane. "NIGHTMARE MOON!!!!" Luna hoof faced herself,"great job nightmare with blowing your cover now come out of hiding she knows your here anyways." "As long as she promises not to send us to the moon I will come out." Luna and Celestia both made faces,Celestia looked really sad and Luna knowing exactly where nightmare was hiding, gave her a very upset look. "Oh I don't think you have to worry about being sent to the moon," Luna said with a menacing look,Celestia looked up "you have to worry about me RIPPING YOUR HEAD OFF!!!!!" Luna was about to lunge at Nightmare then another pony teleported into the room who looked exactly like Luna but didnt have the curl because its parted to the left,she had draconic eyes and sharp teeth, her cutie mark was the moon with a broken musical cord and had a black broken musical cord on her left eye. She grabbed Luna's tail and tried to keep her from literally pulling nightmares head off. "Jeez the only time when solar flare isn't with you you have to go berzerk, Luna please calm down and DON'T KILL NYX!" Celestia was completely and utterly....confused. Luna calmed down and sat down. Nightmare or nyx came out of hiding but was smart enough to keep a very safe distance away from Luna. Celestia finally got her thoughts together but had so many questions flowing in her brain. " Thanks for stopping me Lunatone." The draconic version of Luna smiled " No problem Lulu,thats what friends are for." Thats one question answered for celestia. "Luna if I may ask why is nightmare moon or Nyx here?" Nightmare spoke up "Me and her are cool now,like ya know..best friend." Celestia kept talking back and forth with Nyx and Lunatone, luna saw this as an opportunity to sneak out of her room. She was almost out the window until she was surrounded by a golden aura and pulled back right next to celestia. "your not going anywhere Luna." Celestia said firmly. Luna started to yawn and that went unnoticed. "well I better get back to solar flare,bye." Nyx said and took off. "I'm staying Luna wanted me to sleep over," Lunatone said "and celestia it looks like someone fell asleep next to you." Lunatone giggled. celestia looked down and saw Luna curled up next to her fast asleep. Celestia always thought Luna looked cute when she slept because she looked like a little filly. "Awww she must have been so tired she did stay awake all day." Celestia levitated luna to her bed. kissed her on the forehead and left. "Luna are you awake." "Yes Lunatone I am,even if I am tired I need to go see if shes ok" " You're going to kill Artemis when you see him aren't you" Lunatone said with a smirk " He left her all alone and she got hurt you know I will." And with that they took off into the night sky and they weren't going to anywhere in their equestria. They were going to Artemis's equestria. > The visit > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "How do we get there anyway Luna." Lunatone said with a smile "It's in another world so I'll have to be the one to get us there because I'm the only one who knows how." Luna charged her horn and blasted a magical beam in front of them and a portal was formed. They both went through and got to Artemis's world. they flew until they got to what looked like canterlot,because there was a big castle. "Lets land on the balcony,the guards know who I am." Luna said eyes locked on the balcony. Luna and Lunatone landed on the balcony and a little one was already there to greet her. he was a little alicorn,he has a black coat and a mane like Luna's but was shorter and in more of a boyish style,and his eyes were blue.It would have been really hard to see him but luckily his mane was bright. "MOMMY!! your here! I didn't think you were gonna come tonight,I'm so glad you're here." The little colt was already in Luna's embrace "Hello Night shade It's relieving to know your not hurt as well,I have a question though,did daddy watch sweet dreams when Uncle Solaris hurt her." Luna looked at her innocent son and smiled but on the inside she was very mad. "Oh! he was watching her and Daddy was trying to calm down Uncle Solaris and got burned as well." Night shade shifted his hooves a bit. Luna was a little more at ease to know Artemis was watching them,But now two are burned,which in her books,was not good. "Hello Night shade." The little colt looked to his left. "Hello aunt Lunatone,It's great to see you, do we get to sing with you and mom before bed?" His begging eyes were almost like luna's and Luna's begging eyes are so adorable no one can say no.(thats most likely why her sister lets her get away with everything) "If your mom says yes then we can,right now we need to make sure sweet dreams is okay." Lunatone looked at Luna and Luna nodded to Lunatones statement. "Okay come with me!" Night shade said in a cheery tone which the two thought was kind of cute. The two followed him down the hall,It looked and awful lot like Like Celestia and Luna's canterlot castle,but instead of stallion guards they were mares and the window stories had stallions instead of mares most likely the male versions of the elements of harmony.In the distance Luna saw Solaris. Artemis was throwing a fit and Luna kind of Liked it but she knew she had to end this. "I've been back from the moon for only a year and what do you do? You burn me and my daughter! who do you-" "ENOUGH!!" Luna stood in the middle of the two and broke out in the royal canterlot voice. The two blinked in shock. They didn't know that Luna was there. Then again Luna was the best at sneaking around. Luna looked at both of them. and sighed "Do I always have to come here and find you two imbeciles arguing,well at least Artemis isn't an imbecile." she looked at Solaris and the look she gave him told him to not say anything for a while. "Luna,my love your here I thought you couldn't make it because of your sister?" Artemis was smiling he hasn't seen Luna in two weeks. Luna looked at Artemis and noticed his leg was scorched. Luna wasn't too excited about this. "Solaris tell me why you decided to burn my husband and my daughter without warning." Luna was waiting for an answer from either one but she was not in the mood for waiting."never mind,Solaris you might have had to deal with Artemis,but now you'll have to deal with me,you'll be lucky if you make it out of my wrath alive." Luna said with a menacing look,Lunatone started to laugh because a muscular alicorn was cowering in fear to an alicorn mare. They started to walk down the hallway (and no solaris wasn't with them) "Luna I took care of Sweet Dreams wounds shes in my room right now."Artemis gave her a reassuring smile and Luna smiled brightly at him. "Thank you sweet heart, but.." Luna lost her smile "what about you?" Artemis looked at his leg and smiled. "Oh this old thing,I'm just fine." Luna giggled at his antics "Your giggles are so cute." Luna blushed "Thanks,but seriously let me fix that for you." She charged up her horn and aimed it at his leg Then there was a flash and his wound was gone. "Thanks love." he gave her a kiss on the cheek. she kissed him back "Mommy can you stay here tonight?" Night Shade said while climbing on his moms back. "I'm sorry sweet heart I wish I could." Luna wasn't very fond of not being with her kids but she had to,sadly. "Mommy when can we see auntie Celesia?" Night Shade asked.even though the foals never have seen Celestia Luna would always tell them about her. All the adults guiltily swung their heads to the side.They knew they had to tell Celestia sometime,because Celestia would find out eventually,and Luna knows Celestia would be a good Aunt because of her calm demeanor. "Maybe sometime soon" Luna said. They walked down the hallway,some of the guards greeted them...well the nicer guards. Luna was focused on the door in front of her. It was just like her door but had no blue just black with a white moon and a sliver outline. She had suggested that Blue should be on the door but Artemis joked and said that then she wouldn't be able to tell the difference between his door and hers. Once they got to the door Luna pushed it open and saw her daughter reading a book about equestria. When Sweet Dreams heard the door open she lifted her head up and saw her parents brother and aunt Lunatone. "Mommy!" Sweet Dreams was the spitting image of her mother,but she didn't have her cutie mark and had purple eyes .She ran up to her mom and nuzled her chest and Luna nuzled back and smiled. "Hello Sweet dreams I missed you." Sweet dreams was practically bouncing up and down which everyone thought was cute. "Mommy can we come home with you." Sweet dreams said with puppy dog eyes that matched Lunas. Right Then and and there every one almost died of cuteness overload. Luna was wanting to say no but what came out of her muzzle shocked everypony. "Fine but you can't be noticed when you enter the castle." The kids were jumping with glee and Artemis gave a look that said what about me and Luna nodded to him which made him smile. " Hey mom you said we might be able to sing with you?" Night shade was literally begging her and she couldn't say no so she Let them sing two songs with her. For The mares they sang take it off and for the colt she sang bad blood with him. Then they were ready to go home with Luna.Luna asked if they were ready and clearly they were. So Luna Took off to Her Equestria,but this time with three new ponies. > Can I get away with this........I'm so busted. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luna was happy but nervous at the same time. Yeah her family is coming to the castle she lives in with her for the first time and she really missed them,But her sister also lives In said castle which makes her very nervous. Many thoughts were flowing through her brain like what if Tia is still awake,What If the guards see and tell Tia,and Holly crap what if Tia's spying on me right now! Artemis quickly noticed his wife's distress and quickly flew to her slide. "It's okay Love,we will find a way to get in without anypony noticing." Artemis gave her a reassuring smile and Luna couldn't help but smile back. "Thanks I needed That."Luna gave him a kiss on the cheek "anyways I have an Idea,I left the window open so if we can fly to the castle without being noticed then I can slip through the window and open the balcony door and let you guys in." Lunatone smiled. "And I will see if Celestia is still awake." Lunatone stated boldly,Luna smiled and told Lunatone thank you for helping out. They flew for about ten minutes and then the saw the Canterlot casle ahead of them Lunatone had her eyes locked on her target and Luna on hers. "I'll be back in a jiffy you guys remember wait for my signal."And with that Lunatone turned into a blue mist and made a beeline towards Celestia's bedchambers. Luna and the others were waiting for Lunatones signal and suddenly a blue spark shot into the air and Luna zoomed towards her room now knowing it was safe to go. Luna got to her room and slid through the window.(yes shes that slim.) and quickly opened the balcony door. Lunatone was first to fly in because she was able to zoom past them in her misty form,then artemis,night shade,and finally sweet dreams. "well welcome to my room." Luna said with a smile. The foals were grinning from ear to ear they couldn't believe they were actually with their mother in HER ROOM. "mommy?" "yes Sweet Dreams?" "where do we sleep?" "with me and daddy of course." Sweet Dreams was very confused,Luna caught on to her comfusion and giggled. "My bed is Large enough for four so everyone can sleep on my bed,Lunatone Likes to sleep on her own bed so she teleports it here." Luna said smiling. The foals Were smiling even wider,They love to cuddle up with their mom and dad,But moslty their mommy. "Ok you two it's time for bed I know you want to stay up but its way past your bed time." Luna said with a smile "yes mommy" They both said at the same time and climbed onto the middle of the bed. Artemis took the left side and Luna the right. Lunatone got in her bed she can't sleep without. Sweet Dreams purposefully being on the side of her mother nuzzled her and was just happy to know she was with her mom,Luna returned the nuzzle and kissed her daughter on the forehead.Then everyone dozed off with a smile unaware whats going to go down tomorrow. *********************************************************************************************************** "LLLUUUNNNAAAAA!!!!!!!!!" Luna's eyes shot open so fast you would never know they were closed. "SHOOT!!" > arguments and resolvements > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Celestia's Little outburst (well huge outburst) woke up everypony in the room.The foals were a little scared but what was really funny was that Artemis got so scared he fell right off of the bed screaming like a little filly who just saw the trailer for poltergiest he also sounded like a little filly. Luna and Lunatone saw that And even though Celestia was in the room they both laughed really hard.Artemis just blushed. "You two are very mean you know that." Artemis said while They were laughing their flanks off Celestia was about to lose it again. "And To make things weirder,Luna your sister scares me like my brother does in the morning to wake me up!" Luna and Lunatone laughed even harder and so did the kids. Celestia's eye was twitching madly. "I-I'm sorry sweetheart,I-It's just so f-funny!" Luna said in between laughs. But Celestia just Lost it. "SWEETHEART!!!!" Luna started to stop laughing,and turned to Celestia. "LUNA MY ROOM NOW!" "Yes Tia." Luna said and walked out the door Celestia dangerously close behind which made Luna sweat. ******************************************************************************************** "Who in the Equestria is he,why did you call him sweetheart,and who are the two foals!,and answer me honestly!!!" Luna winced a bit mostly because Celestia was spitting a bit while she yelled and she was really close to Luna. Luna had no choice and she doesn't like lying to her beloved sister...well most of the time. "Fine if you wish...But I don't think you'll be able to handle the answer I'm about to give you." Luna said with a smirk. "Luna I think I'll Be able to handle it." Celestia said firmly. "If you say so,and I'll give you the answers in the same order you asked them." Luna said "His name is Artemis,Hes MY husband,and The two foals are mine." Celestia stared at Luna with her jaw open,Luna giggled. "Luna....why didn't you tell me about this." Luna was surprised that Celestia was so calm. "I thought you would over react."Celestia looked at Luna "I would have if You told me a few months ago but as time went on I realized you're old enough to do what you want and I should loosen the reins a bit,So I'm ok with it." Celestia gave Luna a teary smile. Luna ran up to Celestia and gave her a hug. "Thank you Tia." Luna said happily. Luna and Celestia were walking back to Luna's chamber with Celestia more happier than before. "Luna what are your foals names?" Celestia asked "Night shade and Sweet dreams." "Nice name." "Thank you." Luna and Celestia got to Luna's door and Luna opened it and couldn't believe what she saw. "No way...Tia Take a look at this." Luna said in a whisper. "What is i...Awww thats cute." Right there in the room playing with Lunas two kids were Celestia's kids Saber and Cadence. Saber had a white coat and a black mane and tail. "You guys are soo Cute" Cadence said smiling. "I can agree with you on that sis." said Saber. "I can agree with both of you." Luna said walking into the room. "Aunt Luna!!!" Cadence and Saber said at the same time. Saber was really happy to see his aunt because he was an aunties boy. "Auntie your kids are adorable!" Cadence said "Thank you cadence." Luna Told Artemis That Celestia was Okay with Them Together and from Then on Artemis and The kids were able To Live with Luna,and all was peaceful once again,and It would stay that way for awhile.
