Not because I was reunited with my sister after I had tried to overthrow her twice, or the fact I was defeated by six regular ponies (though I am slightly miffed), and I actually quite enjoyed my day out with Tia who showed me around our new castle and introduced me to doughnuts. No, I was mad because of the history book that I discovered in the library. Tia was known for her amazing poker face. However, the sweat and her nervous smile told another story. Perhaps the intelligence of our fellow leaders had declined in the last millennia. The servants seemed to sense the tension surrounding the dining room and decided not to interfere. There was no saving Tia from a sisterly thrashing. “So, what did this history book say?” Tia asked shakily. To most ponies, her voice would sound normal, but not to the trained ears of myself. I glare at my sister. She looked like a filly with her hoof caught in the cookie jar. My eyes were half-lidded when I responded, “You know exactly what I’m talking about Tia.” Celestia chuckled nervously. “I don’t know what you are talking about little sister,” she replied. I continued to glare at her as I responded, “Alright then, I guess you wouldn’t mind me telling your guards about how you were during your first estrus cycle. You were begging me to give you my relief spell to quell your-” “Alright! Yes, I know about the book, but I’ll have you know, I had nothing to do with it!” Tia exclaimed. I grinned. Tia was so easy to fluster sometimes. “So, if you knew about the book, and you knew it was wrong, why didn’t you order the author’s to correct it,” I asked. “I . . . I . . .” Tia stammered. “Spit it out, Tia,” I demanded. “Well, it wasn’t the first book to mistake you for being my younger sister,” Tia finally managed to stammer out. I remained silent. “So ponies have thought of you as my younger sister for generations,” Tia finished. I was stunned silent. After a few attempts, I finally managed to ask, “How?” “Well, when I informed the populace of your sabatical, I may have accidently referred to you as my little sister,” Tia replied nervously. I may have been cleansed by the Elements, but that did little to restrain my anger. "What do you mean accidently? You and I agreed a millennia ago not to call each other by our nicknames outside of castle walls!” “I know, but I was so emotional after our fight that it just kind of slipped out. I know you must be really angry at me, but you just came back and I don’t want this to get in the way,” Tia pleaded with me. Slowly her words sunk in and I realized that Tia did have a point. The fact that ponies thought that I was the younger sister wasn’t that big of a deal anyways. It was better than ponies thinking that I was some blood sucking monster. “I guess I overreacted a bit there,” I admitted. “That’s okay Luna, you have just returned after all,” Celestia said calmly, “I’m just glad you didn’t discover the holiday where you are depicted as a blood sucking monster.” Celestia immediately recognized her mistake. Anger began to boil to the surface as I asked, “What did you say Celestia?” Tia chuckled nervously before teleporting away, much to the astonishment of the lone servant in the room that had yet to flee. “Get back here missy!” > In Which Celestia and Luna Confuse the Princess of Love with Birth Order > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Which Luna Discovers That Everypony Thinks She is the Younger Sister By Steve Ott "So let me get this straight, you are older than Aunt Celestia but because of some confusion involving what Aunt Celestia said, everypony thought you were the younger sister?" Cadence asked. "Yeah, that's pretty much the gist of it," I responded casually while my younger sister sat fidgeting. It still confused me that she was still nervous about telling ponies the truth. "Well, that is a little strange. I mean, Aunt Celestia is so much bigger than you," Cadence exclaimed, unknowingly stating the obvious. "Yeah, Tia was a fat filly," I joked. Celestia's ears perked as he interjected, "Hey, I wasn't fat, just big-boned." "Keep telling yourself that," I retorted, causing Cadence to chuckle at my comment. After a few moments, Cadence asked, "I have a question. Why did it take you two so long to tell me, after all you have been back for over a year now." I chortled lightly before responding, "I'm not the Princess to ask that question to," gesturing to Tia, who was now brushing her tail nervously. If one was to have good hearing, one could hear Princess Celestia murmur something about murdering her sister. "I heard that Tia!" *** "Well that could have gone worse," I sighed, enjoying the Royal Hot Tub with Tia. It wasn't like Tia just chased me around for fifteen minutes with a knife that she pulled out of her super secret purse. Celestia nodded whilst taking a bite out of a exceptionally large cheesecake. Suddenly, Tia asked, "That reminds me, how did your conversation with Twilight go?" I fought the urge to shiver as a replied, "Well, lets just say she is a little miffed about the whole affair." > In Which Twilight Suffers a Mental Breakdown After Finding Out Luna is the Older Sister > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Which Luna Discovers That Everypony Thinks She is the Younger Sister By Steve Ott "So what happened?" Spike asked curiously. "It can't be! It can't be! It just can't be!" "Well, I told Twilight that I'm actually older than Celestia," I replied a matter of factly. "It's impossibru!" Spike looked at me critically trying to decode if I was just joking with him. "Really, but Princess Celestia is so much bigger," Spike replied, totally not convinced. *incomprehensible screaming* "I know, she was always the bigger one," I responded with a shrug. While it was no longer a big deal, at the time it really bothered me, especially when she could barely talk while being twice the size of her sister that was taking university level courses. *more incomprehensible screaming plus a strange gurgling noise* "Well, do you have any embarrassing stories?" Spike asked curiously. "I know, I'll just travel back in time to PROVE that Princess Luna is lying" "While I do have a multitude of amusing stories about Celestia, I must make sure that your caregiver doesn't hurt herself," I replied before opening the door leading to Twilight's quarters. Inside, Twilight Sparkle was rummaging through her extremely expansive closet exclaiming, "Where is my leather suit!" This was going to take a while. I then proceeded to convince Twilight that I was neither a changeling, Discord, or Celestia in disguise. Why does Celestia have knack for picking the most crazy ponies to be her personal student. *** "Well, that must have been unpleasant," Celestia chimed in. "Not as unpleasant as that one time I caught you clop-" "Moving on" "Oh come on!" a mysterious pony exclaimed. Both Tia and I turned our heads to the origins of the offending voice, spotting a certain pink alicorn with a fake mustache on. "Really?" I deadpanned at my eavesdropping niece. Cadence nervously chuckled before exclaiming, "Umm, my ponies need me!" Before either of us could respond, Cadence suddenly teleported away leaving us dumbfounded. After a few moments, Celestia spoke up, "This is why we shouldn't have told anypony." "Oh shut it, you're the reason why we got into this mess." FIN
