LunaXsad anon

>This is it

>Princess Celestia has requested you to meet her in the throne room

>It's been over three weeks since you were ripped from your world into Equestria

>No one knows why or how you were brought here, and Celestia has been trying to find a way to return you home

>She's been trying her hardest, you know. Still though, hope is all but nonexistent

>Hopefully, your luck will change today. If not, you're stuck here.

>Celestia promised that if there was a way back, she would have found it by now. Both of you are losing hope quickly.

>Pushing any negative thoughts out of your head you push open the doors to the throne room

>Celestia looks up from one of many books she's been reading over the past few weeks.

>A smile plastered on her face, but from this distance it is too difficult to tell if it is real or not

>You almost want to turn around and walk out of the room, but you press on

>"Good to see you Anon."

"Hello Princess"

>Her smile never fading. By now you can see its forced

>You know her answer

>You don't want to hear it, and you're sure she doesn't want to tell you. Even so you still feel the need to know

"Find anything Princess?"

 

 

>Her smile drops and she sighs softly

>No amount of preperation could help soften the blow.

>Your forced optimism drops

>"Truly I am sorry Anon. I did everything I could."

"I know Princess, I know. Thank you."

>Bowing slightly you turn around and leave, heading back to your bedroom.

>No amount of luxury or royal treatment could help.

>Though many people would kill to be in the position you're in, it's still not your old life

>Your life back home wasn't perfect of course, but you lived the way you wanted

>Now though, its too perfect.

>Slunking through the door of your room you take off your clothes and plop onto your bed.

>If only you could fall asleep here and not wake up again

>Your wallowing was interrupted by light rasps at the door.

>You hoped it wasn't Celestia. You werent mad at her, but you still wanted some time away from her.

>Hoping whoever was at the door would leave if you ignored them you sat still

>The knocks came again, followed by a voice

>"Anon, please."

>The voice was farmiliar, it was similar to celestia's but a bit louder and more formal.

 

 

>Seeing as they didn't seem to want to leave you alone you decide to get up and answer the door.

>You open the door to see the smiling face of Princess Luna

>You had met Luna on occasion, and although you didn't know much about her she seemed to be nice

>Similar to her sister, but a more brash and MUCH louder

>Even so she seemed to care for her subjects, and apparently she considered you as one

>"Good to see you Anon. I understand you might not be in the mood to talk so i shall keep this brief."

>'Too long already'

>"My sister and I would like to apologize for the circumstances you find yourself in."

>'Can i sleep now?'

>"However we promise to do all we can to make your time here as enjoyable as possible

>'You talk too much'

>"And please, if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know."

>She finally finished yapping with a smile on her face.

>Admittedly, it was kinda cute. All of the p0nies here are

"Thanks" you mumble, and close the door rather rudely on her.

 

>You hear a faint "Humph" from the hall and return to your bed.

>'Sorry Princess, im not in the mood'

>Her visit causes to realize that you can't just sit here the rest of your life, although you can try

>Boredom however overcomes your sadness and you finally sit up

>It's nearly lunchtime and you aren't very hungry.

>It would be rude not to show up, and you should really thank Celestia for going through all the trouble she did

>Plus you should probably apologize to Luna

>Fixing your clothes you slowly open the door and make your way towards the dining hall

>You enter to find Luna and Celestia having a conversation

>They both stop and look at you

>Putting on your best smile

"Hello"

>Celestia speaks up "Hello Anon, I trust you are feeling better."

"Yeah, a bit thanks."

>Celestia smiles and taps her hoof

>Servants come in and begin serving food while you take your seat

"Celestia? I wanted to say thanks, for everything you have done."

>"It's no trouble Anon. I care for all those under the sun."

>She smiles and you await your food

>Lunch is good, the typical salad and some cakes for desert.

>The two seem to be finishing when you speak up

 

"Luna, may I speak to you for a minute?"

>"Of course."

>The two of you get up and head into the next room leaving Celestia alone

>"Something troubling you, my friend?"

"I just wanted to apologize for the way I acted earlier, being rude to you and all."

>Luna smiles warmly "Tis no trouble Anon. I understand you are going through a rough time. My offer still stands;If you need anything, please ask.

"Thank you Luna. Im going to head back to my room, perhaps we can talk a bit after dinner tonight?"

>"Of course Anon. I'll see you later.

>You smile a bit and head back to your room thinking on your current situation.

>On one hand, you lost all you had worked for

>On the other you gained a new life, and you're quickly finding a friend in Luna.

>Still though, memories of home flood your brain and you can't seem to see the obvious positives to your situation.

>With mind clogged, you decide to sleep until dinner and your eventual talk with Luna.

>Hopefully that will help clear your head

 

>Your alarm goes off and you slap the clock on the table next to you

>groaning you stand up and make your way to the closet where you keep your clothes

>throwing on your clothes you head to the bathroom to make sure you look presentable

>one bathroom trip later and you head out of your room and start towards the dining hall

>walking through the massive halls of canterlot castle you can't help but admire the work that must have went into it

>all of the walls are covered in paintings and tapestries hang from every window

>nothing like you'd ever see at home

>home. Damnit

>you had nearly forgotten about why you had slept in the first place

>these things have a way of creeping back to you, whether you want them to or not

>You continue your walk, but with shoulders slumped a bit and enter the dining hall

>You are a bit early, and Celestia and Luna haven't arrived yet.

>You wait in silence for a few moments until Luna comes in followed by Celestia

>"Hello Anon"

>"Hello"

"Evening your majesties"

>They take their seats and servants immediately rush out carrying trays of food.

>At least the food here is good, despite a lack of meat.

>Small conversations are held between Luna and Celestia and the two later excuse themselves.

>You can see the light outside change as the two move their celestial bodies.

>They return a few moments later and begin thanking various p0nies for their service at dinner.

>"Rest well Anon"And wth that, Celestia leaves the room.

"Good night"

>You and Luna are alone now, and Luna finally breaks the ice

>"Would you like to visit the library Anon? You still want to talk right?

"Yes, that would be fine."

>The two of you exit and make your way to the library.

 

>Luna trots ahead as you slowly slump behind her.

>Every few steps she would turn around to make sure you were following her

>The two of you enter the library, and make your way to wherever luna was leading you

>She waves to a librarian as you pass by

>Luna leads you to a secluded corner far away from the entrance

>Here there are a few sofas and a fireplace burning away.

>"I like to come here sometimes, its very relaxing and gives me time to read a bit."

>You take a seat on a couch and Luna hops up and gets comfortable next to you.

>She sighs softly and looks to you, egging you to begin speaking

"Im sorry Luna, about earlier and about now. I hope im not bumming you out."

>Smiling warmly "Not at all Anon"

"Thank you Luna. I just dont know what to think right now. I had a great life and suddenly im ripped from it. Im just trying

to understand why. Why me? Why not someone who wanted something like this? I just feel like im out of place here. Not only from

the way I look, but from the way this entire place is. I just feel like I dont fit in, and I want to go back home."

>"I understand what its like to want to go home. For so long i waited. For days, years, decades, then centuries I wanted to

go back home. I too was ripped away from my home, and all I wanted to do was return."

"What happened?"

>"I lost control. I let my jealousy take over me. I created a monster, born from the hatred I held for my sister. She festered within me

and one day... I snapped.

 

>By now Luna had small tears running down her face, you could tell it hurt her to tell you these things and yet she pressed on

>"I wont go into the details as much of it is a blur for me. The two of us fought, over something that could have been easily resolved.

I know sister had only me in mind when she banished me, but it still hurt. For the first few days i felt nothing but anger, but as time went on

I came to realize just what I had thrown away. I now directed my anger not only at the nightmare within me, but also myself for not

being able to see all that was in front of me."

>Despite the tears streaming down her face she managed to put on a smile. A genuine smile filled with something...

>Hope

>Hope for you

>Hope that you will make something out of the opportunity you've been given

>Luna was no longer the princess of the night, or goddess of the moon

>She was a friend

>A friend you can turn to when in trouble

>A friend who has been through turmoil and managed to come out head held high

>A massive smile forms on your face and you lean forward and pull Luna into a tight embrace which she graciously returns

>She begins crying hard into your chest as some of your own tears drip onto her head

>To help her out a bit you rub her neck and back softly

>She only holds tighter

>Time passes and her sobs slowly die out, replaced by her gentle breathing.

>She lifts her head up and looks into your eyes

>"Thank you"
