I demand that you tell me your name... AT ONCE!” >She stomps her hoof. >That was the first time you heard her use her royal canterlot voice in a VERY long time. >The creature shifts in his very limited space in the light. >It turns its attention from you, to Sister. > ”Madame...” >A cold sensation ran up your back. >Did he just say? >... >Celestia began to grow angry. >”What is thy name?!” >Anonymous looks up, just enough to see his eyes. >”Anonymous.” >That same sensation hits you once more. >Colder than any night you have felt.   >Celestia’s anger can be seen on her face. >She seems to be quite short tempered with the 'no-named' creature. >Anonymous sits on the cold wooden floor. >”You brought the princess of the sun here? Why is that?" >You step back, distancing yourself from him. >”You seem... Off, Nightmare.” >Beads of sweat begin to roll down your face. >Celestia’s eyes were fixed on Anonymous’s >”Anonymous. What are you doing down here?! Why did Nightmare Moon imprison you in this place?” >Anonymous’s eyes glanced at Celestia for a moment. >”1000 Years does a lot to a man... More so in the dark...” >Anonymous closes his eyes. >Celestia extends the light from her position to Anonymous’s. >A path is made for Anonymous. >If Nightmare Moon has him locked away... He must be good. >Right?   >Anonymous walks closely next to Celestia, eyeing you whenever given the chance. >The three of you walk out of the castle. >Shining Armour was waiting outside. >Celestia looks to him and nods. >Shining Armour alerts the other guards. >”Younger sister... Can I trust you with Anonymous? Escort him to the room, I shall... Explain things there. In the meantime, I must deal with the castle.” >You follow her orders. >Anonymous says nothing. >The wind begins to pick up a bit, sending a chilling blow. >Anonymous must be cold... >He is wearing only a faded white shirt... And an old pair of grey pants... >He MUST be cold. >You lead him to the room. >With better lighting, you see that he is pale... >You clear your throat. Anonymous... >He turns to you. May I... Get you some water? You look parched. >He returns to his previous head position, facing forward. >You walk over to the fountain and prepare a glass of water. After a thousand year? I could go for anything- >You hear small thud. My queen...   >You step back in confusion. >Anonymous was kneeling, with his head bowed and one arm going across his chest. >He looked like what a royal knight would, if one was in HIS form. >You imagined armor around him. >Strangely enough, it was an older uniform... And it suited him so well. >"My Queen?" >You snap back to reality. >Anonymous's eyes look into yours. >It was deep. >It was Dark. >And it felt so... >Right.   >Anonymous stands up. >You levitate the glass of water towards him. >He accepts it, holding it with both hands. >Calmly, he drinks the beverage. >You watch in astonishment, as how familiar he looked. >Anonymous lowers his beverage, and places it on a table. >He wipes whatever drips of water was left on his lips with his arm. >"Thank you..." It is the least I could do... >Anonymous looks at you curiously. >His eyes examine you, as though he was finding something wrong or... >He stops at your eyes. >Both of you, now looking into each-others eyes, move closer. >Just like a moment ago... >His breathing became in sync with yours. >Suddenly, he turns away with a small blush on his face. >"I apologize, my Queen, its just I-" >His blush goes away. Anonymous, there is no need to call me queen... >He flinches. >"But..."   Anonymous... I am no queen... I am a princess. I aide Celestia in running the kingdom. >He steps back. >"That... Can't be... Que-... Princess NightmareMoon... How can you NOT be the ruler? Whatever happened to..." >You advance forward. Whatever happened to what? >His eyes matches yours once more. >Every time it has done so, it felt as though time stoped. >Like nothing in the world can interrupt it. >"Your dreams... YOUR ambitions... Your-" >"Anonymous." A voice interrupts. >The link between the two of you was broken by an outside voice. >Both of you turn to see. >Sister, Celestia >She appears to have a slightly angered face, but immediately changes when she begins to talk. >"My sister is no longer like that, Anonymous. She has no intention of ruling the this kingdom as Queen of The Night." Sister... >"I would also like for you to address her by her TRUE name. Princess Luna." >Anonymous, without hesitation, bows once more. >You can sense Anonymous did not want to do so... >"Princess Luna." >"Thank-you Anonymous."   >Sister... >What she had spoken was true... >You had no intention of overthrowing the day... >But... >Anonymous rises. >"Now, Anonymous... I have a few questions." >He looks up to her with his melancholic eyes he had shown you. >"Of course." >Sister motions him to a chair that was attached to a table. >She herself sits on the opposite end of the table. >"Sister, please... I wish for you to stay." >She smiles warmly. >Not wanting to upset her, and not wanting to miss out on Anonymous's past, you take a seat. >Anonymous looks down; his hands resting in front of him on the table. >"Let us begin, Anonymous." >Sisters horn begins to glow. >You and Anonymous watches as Celestia uses her magic. >Everything begins to fade to white.
