CHAPTER 2
 
>Luna Is cheering Anon on as he is learning how to fly
 
Luna:" Come on Anon! You can do it! You've done bigger things than this before! Surely something as simple as flying can't be too hard for you!"
 
Anon:" Oh come on Luna, you know its hard for me. I can't do it just yet. Its just so new to me. Hell I'm still getting used to having hooves not hands. "
 
Luna:" Come on! For somepony whose Special ability is giving ponies morale and ability boosts, you sure seem to be lacking in both!" says Luna cheerfully.
 
Anon says to himself in his head "Thats right, my ability. I remember getting my cutie mark. I was surprised to be an Alicorn without a cutie mark. "
 
>Anon has a flashback to the day when he got his cutie mark
 
>Flashback special effects
 
>It is time again like always for his wife Luna to raise the moon which he loves so much, this time though, she struggles.
 
Anon:" Whats wrong Darling? " he asks with a concerned look on his face.
 
"A-Anon my powers aren't working, the moon won't budge!" Luna looks ashamed and is welling up looking like she is going to cry.
 
Anon rushes over to embrace her
"Luna! My love! don't cry!, everyo-uh-pony has false starts sometimes , just relax and try again darling"
 
Luna rests her head in anons shoulder and is about to cry "I'm terrible I'm failing at my royal duties, I'm-" anon cuts her off gently
 
"no. Luna you're not , come here ,I believe in you , you can do this and I love you "
 
anon look into Lunas eyes and kisses Her on the lips holding it for a few seconds to reassure her.
 
He stops and says to her softly "do you feel better?"
 
Luna begins to attempt to move the moon again ,
 
suddenly unbeknownst to anon his horn began to emit a magical glow and a beam of energy transfers itself from anons horn directly into Lunas.
 
She lets out a gentle gasp and her horn begins to glow with a brighter light than usual.
 
She successfully raises the moon , smiling now as she regains control of her magic.
 
 
It shines beautifully in the night sky, lunas slender body eclipsing it in the soft moonlight. She descends slowly and lands.
 
"oh anon! I don't know how you did that but thank you , thank you thank you thank you" jumping onto him and giving him a loving embrace and a kiss on the lips.
 
She pauses and looks startled , her gaze turns towards Anon's flank which appears to be glowing brightly
 
"Anon! , I think your getting your cutie mark!!" Squeals Luna
 
"You're right Luna!"
 
"It's forming! My love!"
 
It looks like...a circle ...no wait wait more is appearing...ooh more colour is appearing , bright blue I believe anon!"
 
A final flash of light bursts through revealing the entire cutie mark
 
Anon try's to crane his head round to see but it is currently to bright
 
"Ooh anon!" Exclaims Luna "it looks like a sun but its more electrical and energy like! Bright blue with sharp edges!
 
It must be related to what you did just now when I lacked the strength to lift the moon! You gave me the strength! Not only that !
 
You helped me have confidence in my abilities!
 
From what happened , it looks like you have the special talent of assurance and inspiration!, that's truly amazing anon!"
 
"It surely is Luna !"
You embrace Luna , your heart lightens at the thought of making Luna so happy
 
"We must tell the others! Anon!"
 
Prince Anon was learning to fly with the help of his beloved wife princess Luna , however he was struggling to master his new alicorn wings.
 
Much to Lunas polite amusement
"Oh anon forgive me, but don't be frightened ill catch you if your wings don't work" she giggled
 
Being a human anon was never afraid of heights but still couldn't grasp the feeling of having wings, to him it was like having two new limbs
 
"Don't worry Anon!, just do what I showed you , extend glide and flap"
 
Anon thought about how he empowered Luna during the raising of the moon and when he earned his cutie mark
 
"i can do this, nothing will go wrong"
Anon assured himself
 
 
He looked to Luna hovering in the air in front of him. "Here I go Luna! Wish me luck" he readied his hooves and made a run for the edge , he made sure to extend his wings fully before jumping
 
He felt himself leave the edge and his wings were holding him in the air
 
He smiled and attempted to glide toward Luna
 
"Well done Anon!" She exclaimed excitedly
 
Anon felt himself slowing down he attempted to bring himself up and hover in place
 
He lost his balance for a moment and thought he was going to fall but Luna readjusted him before he panicked
 
After some practice he felt confidant enough to fly alongside Luna
 
Anon felt amazing , he was flying like a bird, he felt weightless , a feeling he couldn't describe. It was wonderful
 
He beamed at Luna as they flew and danced around in the calm moonlit sky
 
"Would you like to attempt to try landing now anon? we will fly back to the castle, try to follow what I do my love!"
 
Luna gracefully came into the land on the cantorlot courtyard and looked back at anon
"Try to bring your wings back to slow you down anon!" She smiled at him with encouragement
 
"Ok" anon said to himself "simple enough, come on here we go"
 
He aligned his flight path and readied himself to slow down, he felt he wasn't slowing down
 
He tried turning his wings to a different angle but they refused to do what he told them.
 
"Luna watch out!" shouted anon as he clumsily came in to "land"
 
Luna gave a look of fear for anon
 
His hooves hit the ground but his speed was too fast to slow down in time, he rolled over and over , tumbling into a nearby tree in the courtyard
 
Anon let out a groan of pain and massaged his head "uuuhhhh"
 
 
"Luna?"
 
Luna:" Nice Landing Anon." She says with playfully and with a sarcastic tone of voice
 
Anon:" Yeah I know, Aren't I the best at this?"
 
Luna:" Not quite."
 
Anon and Luna laugh to their little joke.
 
>Luna Sets everything up for him and she encourages him to keep trying until he gets it right.
 
Luna:" Come on Anon! We're not going back to the castle until you do this!"
 
Anon:" Alright! I will keep on going, for you My Darling Luna"
 
>Luna Blushes
 
Luna:" Ah Anon, even though you're an alicorn, you still haven't changed. You still are the flatterer you always were. But I'm not complaining" She says and giggles.
 
Anon:" Yep! I'll never change unless its for the better, My love."
 
Luna:"Anon, I never want you change! You are perfect the way you are!" She kisses Him "Now come Anon! Let's do it! Let's fly back to the Castle and my Balcony! Let's go!"
 
Anon:" Only on one Condition Luna, You don't cry when I beat you there!" Anon said Competitively.
 
Luna:" Hah! It'll be you who is crying in my arms after I make you eat my Dust!"
 
>The Race to the Castle starts
 
>Anon confidently flies around trying to pull off huge tricks like doing a barrel roll but usually fails.
 
>After some cute and competitive banter during the race, Luna finally beats Anon to her balcony.
 
Luna:" Haha! The Fun has been Doubled! I won Anon! Come now! Let's lay down and relax together!"
 
Anon:" You may have won this time My love, But I guarantee that one day, It will be I who beats You!"
 
Luna:" As if!" she says playfully
 
>Luna and Anon Raise the moon Together as they had been doing since Anon got his cutie mark and found out his special ability as Celestia lowers her Sun.
 
>They relax on top of the bed together cuddling
 
Luna:" I had a really fun time Anon! You really got better since you first got your wings!" She gives anon a huge hug and big kiss
 
Anon:" Haha, I sure have! Still not used to these hooves though" Anon Chuckles
 
Luna:" Oh Anon, Always so funny" She says while Laughing
 
Anon lets out a contended sigh and smiles
 
He looks over to Luna with a inquisitive look on his face
 
"What was it like it for you before I came here and met you , me and you always spend time together at night,
 
I feel sad for not being here from the start, I came from another world, but after everything we've been through:
 
The portals
The crisis
Me becoming one of your kind, truly Luna I am eternally elated to have you!
 
*Anon puts a sad look on his face*
 
In my world when two people love each other , it starts out wonderfully, they fall in love , they even get married...but then one day after many years one will die before the other.
 
And the last one left waits with a broken heart and some memories. Everyone on my planet had to face , I even expected it myself before the war.
 
But your kind? , you say we're immortal .
We will be together forever? I can't imagine how it's possible, everytime I think about it Luna...
 
 
I can't believe it. Because to me. That's a perfect paradise
 
 
Tears of happiness appear in anons eyes
 
*he embraces Luna in a loving kiss and pulls her closer , she can feel his heart beating with pure ecstasy.*
 
"I'm sorry if this seems abrupt Luna, but I've only now realised how lucky I am to be here and have you!!"
 
Luna:" Anon! My Love! I... I don't even know what to say! You have left me speechless! Of Course we are immortal my darling! I can honestly say, that without a doubt, Our love will last for all Eternity!
Anon, before you came here, I was very lonely during the night. My sister would sometimes come to talk to me as she was the only one who understood me and loved me, until you came around of course. Most of my nights would  be spent all alone just wandering through Canterlot and Ponyville getting mixed reactions wherever I go. The Tale of Nightmare Moon still lingered in the minds of my citizens and most still feared me , regardless of my actions. I occasionally met someone who enjoyed the night as much as I but they would normally leave before I can talk to them more. But then you came Anon. You came and changed my life for the better in every way possible! When I had first laid eyes on you, I could tell something about you was different.
Our wedding night was the most hectic night of my entire life Anon, It was lining up to be the perfect day, but as soon as I raised my moon, I could tell something was going to go wrong, It just had to. The fact that we actually are married To this day still surprises me. I never thought I would see you again, but then I heard your screaming voice from deep inside the mental prison Nightmare Moon had imprisoned me in, And I instantly got  so happy I started to fight against Nightmare Moon. That moment you had been sucked back Anon, It caused me to let the darkness of Nightmare Moon into my heart again from utter despair. I grieved your loss like no other, my prince. But when we finally got married, I was forever grateful that I managed to get my soulmate back. I was so excited and I still am, and I forever will be, even if there are some days worse than others, I will always love you the same.
 
Being together forever is my paradise as much as it is yours Anon!
 
>Luna Embraces Anon with an extremely passionate kiss.
 
>Anon looks at Luna with a reassuring gaze.
 
 
I know you are haunted from your past as am I.
 
We are connected that way. In our souls.
 
But I will promise you this Luna.
 
If by some horrible fate you turn back into nightmare moon and there is no way to defeat her other than destroying her completely.
 
I would stop anyone trying to destroy her if they can't get you back in the process.
 
I know she's evil. But she's still you. Corrupted but still the same pony I love deep inside.
 
I've thought maybe...I would still stand by you and love if you became nightmare moon again...on the sole basis I could remind her that
 
She's you. So there would always be a way to get you back, and really...so what if the night lasted forever?
 
That's a Promise Luna. For now and forever
 
This day was one of the best In Anon's life other than of course his wedding day.
He had been slowly learning how to fly with the assistance from his wife, Luna
 
He had helped her raise The moon hours ago and as usual they stayed up the entire night together embracing each other, talking to each other, laughing, having fun, but then a more serious conversation sparks from Anon.
 
Anon:" You know Luna, Darling, I know that you are still haunted from your past as am I. No matter what we do, our past happened. But that is one way we stay connected. In our souls.
I promise you Luna, if by some horrible and unbelievable fate you turn back into Nightmare Moon and there is no way to defeat her other than destroying her completely which would cause the destruction of you, I would not let anyone dare lay a hoof on you. I know she is evil, but she is still the pony I love. She's you, so there would always be a way to get you back, and really... So what if the night lasted forever?
Thats a promise Luna. Now and forever.
 
>Luna starts tearing up tears of joy and love as she learns that her Husband would truly do anything for her, whether or not she is 100% herself.
 
Luna:" *sobbing* Oh Anon!!! You have no idea how much that touched me! It is true that Nightmare Moon still haunts my own dreams, however I will do my best to make sure that she never regains her control of me. As long as you're around, Im sure that won't be a problem!" *Luna smiles and hugs Anon*
Alright Anon, It is time to lower the moon and for us to go to sleep, See you in my dreams My Love!"
 
>The couple lower the moon and rest in their bed.
 
>Luna starts having a dream about Nightmare Moon. She is trapped within her again and she is witnessing the destruction and Chaos she is causing without being able to do anything to stop her.
 
>Nightmare Moon is ready to aim at Anon.
 
Anon:" Luna! I know you're in there please! Do not do this! I do not wish to Harm you Nightmare Moon.
 
>Anon Enters Luna's dream as soon as he finds out his wife is dreaming about Nightmare Moon.
 
Anon:" I do not wish to harm you Nightmare Moon. Please Do not harm me. All I wish for is to be able to talk to my Loving wife, Luna. I know you are still her, corrupted yes, but you are still the Luna I love deep down inside. I know It isn't easy to trust me Nightmare Moon, but I will do anything for my Wife. Anything. So I drop my weapon and I offer myself to you as a prisoner or a slave. Which ever you see fit"
 
>Luna sees this happening and begs Nightmare Moon not to hurt him. Eventually, Luna and Nightmare moon wholly bond instead of being two entities.
 
Nightmare Luna(essentially Luna in Nightmare Moon form):" Hello Anon, Its me Luna. I can't say how happy I am to see you here. I have joined with Nightmare Moon to become One entity. I saw how you really would stand down and be at the mercy of Nightmare Moon, and I wanted to show that I would do the same for you. She wants her control back but I will be making sure that all her decisions go through me if they involve you. I love you more than anything My sweet Prince."
 
Thank you Luna I am thankful for that
 
So long as within the confines of this dream I should be safe. Also can you let nightmare moon speak for the moment please?
 
 
*becomes nightmare moons again*
 
"YO-"
 
"Don't please" Anon shushed her
 
"Just let me talk for the time being"
"Why do you feel the need to spread fear and terror in order to get your subjects to embrace the night, I'm am new to this world but I now stand by lunas side in the night and sleep through the day. Would you really blast someone who loves Luna as much as I, who loves YOU as much , because you ARE Luna .
 
Nightmare moon looks concerned but retorts "you STILL OPPOSED ME on my last escape attempt!"
 
"I only oppose your attitude and hatred, Luna knows as well as I do I could never lay a hoof on you."
 
"You know what I would have been forced to do if Luna hasn't broken free? And the others would have been forced to use the same magic they used to send you to the moon? I would let myself get hit by it. Because i then you'd still be there. With me
 
 
*nightmare moon looks touched but quickly resumes her anger*
 
"Pah so what! Such sacrifice is a fools action!"
 
"You can think that. But I'd rather be a fool than lose you"
 
"Why do you think force is the only way to gain the love of your subjects?"
 
"ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE!" Nightmare responded
 
"Very well anon, we may be prevented from destroying you , be wanted your mind is not as protected as your body!"
 
"How so" anon asks nervously with a look of worry
 
"NIGHTMARE moon you see , I can reveal a ponies WORST AND MOST FEARED THOUGHTS COME TO PASS!"
 
*she fires a beam of energy at him*
 
Anon begins to see a vision before him, it distresses him and is screaming , tears in his eyes.
 
Nightmare moon cackles but suddenly stops and is shocked to what she sees , not knowing the extent of anons love
 
Anon is crouched over the corpse of nightmare moon, crying , the mane six and celestia are seen in the background with regretful expressions
 
"Luna , don't leave me!"
 
*Nightmare moon shows great concern and is surprised this is anons nightmare
 
"Anon?"
 
Anon looks disoriented for a moment and then looks relieved once he realises it was a dream.
 
Nightmare moon asked
 
"But why did thou see the death of us as a tragedy , is that truly thous worst nightmare?"
 
"Because " anon stated
"To lose you is to lose Luna, she is you and you are her , just in conflict"
 
"I might not agree with your goals but I will never try to hurt you.
 
When I married Luna i made a vow to love her forever, and believe or that that includes you.
 
"Thy loves...us"
 
"You don't need to enslave and threaten to make people love the night , you just have let them find it. Luna"
 
"An-"
 
"Anon proceeds to kiss nightmare moon gently, she procedes to morph back into Luna"
 
>Anon had kissed Nightmare Moon gently and passionately as He would kiss Luna, for he knew that Nightmare Moon truly was just Luna all along.
 
>The dream continues on
 
Luna:" Anon!!!!!!!!! Oh my goodness! What just happened?! I thought for sure Nightmare Moon would obliterate you in haste! She had locked me away again, but she didn't lock away my heart for her heart and my heart are the same. Anon, you finally made Nightmare Moon cease! She and I are finally at true peace and Harmony! Anon, Never forget, that no matter who may be on the outside, The pony inside loves you no matter what. Nightmare Moon Loves you Anon. I love you. Nightmare Moon was truly the physical embodiment of my evil and darkness. But when she, no , I saw your true love for me in the face of evil, It had warmed my heart. You made me understand that force is not the way to go. Anon, your true love and compassion for me really helped me. Thank you so much My Sweet Prince!"
 
 
>Luna kisses Anonymous back just as gently and passionately he had done to her moments ago.
 
>The Couple of the Night have woken up and they went to the Canterlot Gardens to enjoy each others company in the real world.
 
Anon and Luna were admiring the stain glass display in the canterlot castle
 
"So you mean I get one of these too Luna "
 
"That is correct my love " she replied sweetly
 
"Wow." Gasped anon
"It's so handcrafted and well made , thank you Luna it is a honour!"
 
Luna asked anon "what was it like? Your world , before you suffered it's loss my love?" She said with a tone of empathy so as to not upset anon
 
Anons mind went back, before the bombs the fire and the destruction...back when the sun still shined
"Certainly...it wasn't perfect but it was something to admire..."
 
*FLASHBACK SCENE*
 
It is a bright summers day and the sky is clear and blue
 
Anon is out in the countryside for a run as he sometimes like to do on his days off
 
Anon stops and pulls out his smartphone "hmm let's get a good song for this hill"
 
Anon let out a grin "perfect" he sprinted off as the hill started to get steeper
 
He could feel the wind on his and the sun on his back , he always felt truly alive when he did this. And eased the stress of the passing week.
 
 
He didn't feel tired at all, he felt so energised. He upped his pace and got further up the hill.
 
He finally reaches the top of the hill and takes a break on a bench next a to a lush green field.
 
A plane can be heard passing overhead , it's jet engines faintly roaring in the sky.
 
He sits back and admires the view.
 
The sun shining brightly , illuminating
The almost neon green grass.
 
Anon doesn't say a world, he's enjoying the view...but he feels uneasy as something was going to go wrong. Maybe not now. Not next week. Maybe not next month...
 
...but sometime
 
He throws the thought from his mind , he didn't even know what he was thinking about.
 
 
A newspaper is sitting next to anon he doesn't bother to read , he's too busy relaxing.
 
The headline simply reads "
 
RUSSIAN AFFAIRS CREATE UNEASE IN UN, CHINA TO POSSIBLY LEAVE MEMBERSHIP, UK STATING NEUTRALITY,"
 
Anon says to himself "better get back, before it gets dark"
 
He sprinted off leaving the picturesque spot behind him, clouds start to move in. Blocking some of the sunlight , still bright but annoys anon "typical" he muttered to himself and picked up the pace to get home before the rain got up to him"
 
Luna:" Wow! The technology your people had was truly amazing! Being able to listen to music that has been pre recorded is revolutionary! It seemed like a beautiful day for you Anon."
 
Anon:" Yeah, our smart phones were capable of photography, calling, messaging, and much much more! Although it is an amazing device, it came with consequences. Many people had become addicted to their smart phones, figuratively glued to them. My dear, it was a truly beautiful day that day. It is a day I would gladly spend time with you. You know my darling, I don't miss my technologies at all for Equestria has magic, something that either was imitated but never done and something that was true. This is true magic and the one that keeps me happy is the magic of our love Luna. "
 
Luna:" Aww, Anon! You are so nice to me! I don't care about any technology or magic my love, as long as I have you, I don't need anything else in the world."
 
Anon:" now Luna, my Dear, would you mind telling me more about your life before you met me? I realize that I know quite a lot already, but my desire to know everything about my Wife and one true love intensify more and more"
 
Luna:" Aww sure anon. Your thirst for knowledge on my past makes you so interesting my love! Your desire for knowledge intensifies just like My love for you, my sweet prince. I'll tell you about the time I spent after I had been taken away from the evil grip Nightmare Moon had on me by the elements of harmony."
 
>Flashback + special fx
 
Luna tells a story about how she had been defeated as Nightmare moon and became Luna again and how she tried to rejoin society afterwards.
 
Luna had been defeated by the Elements of Harmony as Nightmare Moon. She had been reverted to a very young form of herself before her magic had affected her mane and made it flow. Her coat was a different shade of blue and everything. She had cried to her sister in absolute remorse as 1000 years of banishment made her miss her dear sister so much.
Celestia had accepted her apology as the entire Kingdom rejoiced as the Royal Sisters were together again.
 
That night though, it was time for Luna to raise the moon again. It would be the first time she was responsible for raising the moon In 1000 years.
 
Luna :" Sister... I don't know if I can do it.. I am ashamed of myself as I have dishonored my name in the name. Of Nightmare Moon. I had become an image of evil in the minds of all the citizens of Equestria.. What will they say when they see me raise my moon and not you? "
 
Celestia:" Luna.. You don't need to worry. You are going to be just fine. All I ask you to do is raise the moon and lower the moon when I need you to as handling both tasks was very taxing for me. That's all I ask from you, my dear sister. Can you please find it in your heart to get the courage and raise your beautiful moon and make it shine, in the way only you could do. "
 
Luna:" I will do as you command, Celestia.. I shall raise the moon and lower the moon accordingly. I will no longer oppose you my sister. I will be here to support you."
 
Luna had raised the moon that night but the reactions of the citizens were that of fear for they feared that "eternal" night may fall upon them again.
 
Deeply saddened by this, Luna decides to stay secluded in the castle and only make trips to better get to know the area of Equestria. She did her best to keep her hidden as her night, although beautiful, was hated and feared for the wrong reasons . She talked to no one but her sister, Celestia as she was the only one willing to offer compassion and love. She had feared the citizen's rejection as much as they feared her.
 
Eventually, after months since the day she had come back as Nightmare Moon, it was finally Nightmare Night. Celestia had helped increase her magic back to the way it was. Restoring her true fur and mane colors. This was it, Luna had thought. Her true chance to win the adoration of the public. Change nightmare night from a night of scares and terror to a night of a beautiful feast.
 
She decided to humble Pony ville with her appearance for she had known that Pony ville was filled with friendly people. When she had arrived though, she wasn't well received again being mistaken for her evil alter ego Nightmare Moon and had trotted off in misery. Twilight Sparkle soon caught up with the depressed Luna and had her and her friends finally teach her how to fit in with society. She makes peace with Pinkie Pie, the one who had been calling her Nightmare Moon. Eventually, Luna starts to fit in with society as she had learned the true magic of friendship. She didn't turn Nightmare Night into a huge feast rather she kept it the way it was so ponies could enjoy their tradition. She was happy to scare the little children in a fun way. However she still wasn't given the friendliest of greetings in the future. She had become much more social than before however she still felt like going back to the shadows. She had stayed that way a long time.
 
>exit flashback
 
Luna:" I stayed that way for a long time. That is, until I met you. You my love had changed my entire life. Around. You have helped me captivate the hearts of my subjects and I am a much better Pony now because of what you have done for me. I love you forever, My Sweet Prince Anon. No matter what I will always have love for you in my heart. "
 
*she teared up a bit and had kissed her Prince compassionately with the utmost euphoria and gratefulness*
 
Anon returns her kiss with the same amount of love and affection
 
"Oh Luna , I'm sorry you had to feel like before, but I'm equally joyed to know how much happier you are now and no longer feel this sadness"
 
"I had a thought , a subtle difference in your world and mine when it comes to the night.
 
Your citizens feared when the moon covered the sun, didn't they?
 
Occasionally, every so often , the moon on my planet would eclipse the sun for a short amount of time, it would only happen in certain parts of the world , but people would travel all over just to see , they didn't fear it they saw it as a thing of wonder and to be admired."
 
As well as that , rarely we had meteor showers that people would stay up through the whole night for!"
 
The night isn't something anyone should fear , it's a wonderus beauty ," anon looks tenderly at Luna and winks "much like you!"
 
Luna:"I am so glad that at least you enjoy my moon Anon. I am sure there are others that enjoy my night, but none have enjoyed my work more than you. I love you so much my prince."
 
Anon:" I don't only love your night you know. I love all you do. I love your beauty, your charm, your personality, your everything. I love You."
 
>The two embrace each other in passionate ways, kissing and all the sorts
 
Luna:" Oh Anon! I will never stop loving you! You are so perfect! You are my perfect pony. Please don't ever change. I would be heart broken more than ever."
 
Anon:" I promise not to change my fair princess. Anything for you, I will do without hesitation and with passion. Your wish is my command"
 
Luna:" Let's go to the Canterlot Gardens Anon! I want to show you something. I hid this from you as long as I could but I will show you now because I can't take it anymore! Come on! Come Quick!"
 
Anon:" Coming Dear!"
 
>The Couple rush to the Canterlot Gardens as Luna shows Anon her surprise. She rotates the moon and reveals an image of her and Anon kissing engraved into the moon
 
Luna:" Do you like it Anon? I worked hard on it while you slept every night since our marriage. It was finally ready and I couldn't help myself. Happy One Month Anniversary, My Sweet Prince"
 
>Anon Is left completely speechless as he stares and admires the Monumental and Spectacular moon that Luna had engraved for him
 
Anon:" Luna... It's... It's... Magnificent! I can't believe you did this for me! It is so beautiful and it is a true testament to our love. Thank you Luna, Thank you so much for this. This is the most beautiful gift you could have possibly given me. Now I have a gift for you. I searched all over Equestria for this when you were asleep and I was awake. I found this, The Element of Shining Darkness. It suits you well, my dear princess.
 
>Pic related, its the necklace
 
Luna:" My word Anon, I can't believe you found something so beautiful! It matches my coat so well! It feels like a gem I was born to have!"
 
Anon:"And I have one more surprise for you my dear Luna."
 
Luna:" And what is it Anon?"
 
Anon:" You'll see."
 
>Anon took off for the sky.
>He was slowly climbing higher and higher until he reached what he thought was a suitable height to perform the shooting star.
 
>He remembered his training and motivated himself to get this right, even though he never had done it before.
 
>Upon reaching his peak, Anon steadied himself in the air.
He tilted his body downwards and arched his wings for maximum speed.
The wind got louder and louder the faster the he got
The world below looked like a tiny dot from up here.
 
>He willed his horn to be ready to light up and let out a flare of magic.
>He started to speed across the night sky leaving behind a beautiful mist behind him
>He was about to reach the middle of the moon
 
(2:05 of music now!)
 
He said to himself "NOW!" as he reached the middle of the moon and His horn lit up
 
>Anon pulled his wings up to come out of the dive
 
>He had reached the right speed for the boom the happen , and released the magical flare and that very second
 
>He Spread a bright white energy flare right across the night sky and zoomed across the sky at immense speed as he finished the shooting star maneuver
 
"YES!" Anon had exclaimed to himself
 
>He soon landed almost perfectly in front of Luna to get what she thought
 
>Luna stood there speechless before her loved one. She could not fathom the work it must have taken for Anon to fly correctly
 
Luna:" Anon!" She starts to cry tears of joy "This was so beautiful! Thank you so much for this wonderful present! This necklace and the shooting star were so beautiful... I can't even describe how I am feeling right now! I never expected this! All I wanted was your love Anon, but it looks like you went the extra mile"
 
Anon:" We both got each other the best gifts Luna. I gave you my love, my dedication, and a beautiful necklace of the night. You gave me your love and a beautiful Moon for me to gaze upon at my leisure. Here's to many, many, many great years of Love and passion between us!"
 
>The two embrace each other on the soft grass of the Canterlot Gardens kissing with the same kind of passion as they did a month ago on their wedding night
 
>The Royal Couple got up from the soft ground of the Garden
 
Anon:" Luna, lets walk to our room and enjoy this there, in the privacy and beauty of our room"
 
Luna:" Good Idea Anon! Let's go shall we?"
 
Anon:" Want to hold each other's hooves my Darling?"
 
Luna:" Why I'd love to my beloved Anon"
 
> The two stroll around the castle slowly talking about the beautiful night
 
Anon:" I hope our love will last forever Luna. As long as I am with you, I am in paradise. My paradise is you. Not Equestria. Not the Castle. Not anything else. You are my paradise. Should I lose you, I have nothing worth living for. "
 
Luna:" Anon, You are my everything. You are the sole reason why I am so happy these days! Why I am not a depressed princess of the night, dwelling in my misery."
 
>The two eventually get to their room where they begin to cuddle and snuggle and softly embrace each other's love
 
Anon:" Luna, Please promise me one thing."
 
Luna:" What is it Anon?"
 
Anon:" Don't ever change. Don't ever lose sight of our love. Our love can prevail over all Luna. If I were to lose you, My heart would turn blacker than night itself. I would know no emotions. I would only know depression and hate. I would most likely become a dark entity myself causing me to be banished like you were or turned into stone or shadow like Discord or King Sombra"
 
Luna:" I promise not to change Anon. I will never stop loving the most perfect Alicorn in all of Equestria."
 
Anon:"Luna... I am in no way perfect. I wasn't even born an Alicorn. In the end, I'm only human. I was born with imperfections."
 
Luna:" It doesn't make a single difference to me my sweet prince. You are perfect to me. Your soul matches so perfectly with mine. I love you more than anyone or anything Anon. And I intend on keeping it that way."
 
Anon:" Thank you so much Luna. You are truly the most amazing princess in history. I can not imagine Equestria or life itself without you."
 
>They continue to embrace each other when thoughts about being human pop into Anon's head. Not negative ones however.
 
Anon:" Hey Luna, You know, there was something about us humans that made us special."
 
Luna:" Pray Tell Anon, what is it that made your race special?"
 
Anon:" We knew we were walking mistakes. We were all living imperfections. We knew that no matter what we did or how we tried, we were imperfect. We never were, and never will be perfect.
 
We all knew that very well. But what we did with those imperfections made us strong as a whole race. Some of us didn't do this and resorted to means of brutality to gain dominance Such as Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Osama Bin Laden, and Kim Jong Un.
 
What we did is take those imperfections of ours, and instead of making them our weaknesses, we made them our strengths. We turned what was wrong about us into our uniting force. We stood together as one knowing we were all different and unique and most of all imperfect. We were all but mere Humans."
 
Luna:" Interesting Anon. Your race truly was a formidable one. I apologize that they are gone. I wish they weren't as some seemed like good people. Us ponies are very similar to how your human race was. We all are united by what makes us different. We encourage uniqueness in Equestria. We encourage all of our citizens to find their Destiny, at whatever cost they wish to pay. Cutie Marks are an important example of what makes every pony different. But we do not shun ponies who have different types of Cutie Marks for in the grand scheme of things, we are all Ponies."
 
Anon:" Ponies and Humans would have gotten along well should they have ever met. But it is for the better that they never do. Human's are easily susceptible to Greed, Lust, Envy, Pride, Wrath, Sloth, and Gluttony. These  were known as the seven deadly sins in my world. They are eventually what tore humanity apart and led to its self-obliteration. I'm glad I was lucky enough to be spared so I can spend my life with you, My Darling and Lovely Luna."
 
Luna:" My Sweet Prince Anon, I am so happy too that you are here so I can spend time with you and be in our paradise with each other. I love you Anon. Never forget that. I will love you no matter where I am, whether I am here with you, or on the other side of the world, I will always love you and I have no doubt in my mind or heart that you will Love me to."
 
Anon:" You got that right Luna."
 
Luna:" Come Anon, It's time to lower our beautiful moon. Time sure does fly when you spend time with someone you love."
 
>The two lower the moon together and then proceed to go to sleep
 
Anon:" Sweet Dreams Luna, my fair Princess"
 
>Anon began having a dream. Although, It wasn't a dream. It was a nightmare. Luna was getting kidnapped and locked away forever. Only Nightmare Moon had remained.
 
Anon:" LUUUUNAAAAAAA!!!!!!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" I'm sorry Anon. Your Luna is no more. I am still here and I am as much as you're gonna have I am still as much Luna as she was. And even though You have tried to defeat me before, I understand that thou loves me for who I am. I am Luna and she is me."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Anonymous, I do not wish to harm you. Luna is in grave danger. She has been taken and I want to get my other half back. "
 
Anon:" Alright Nightmare Moon. Let's find Luna. She's my other half to and I would be willing to give up my own life for your's and her's.
 
>Anon wakes up from the nightmare in the middle of the day. He sees Luna still sleeping in perfect peace next to him as he falls back asleep
 
>The Couple wake up
 
Anon:" Good morning, my Lovely Luna."
 
Luna:" Hi anon. How'd you sleep.
 
Anon:" Pretty good I must say. I did have the silliest nightmare that you were kidnapped and your magic was used for evil. But that can never happen."
 
Luna:" What a ridiculous thing to dream about. How dare you accuse me, Luna, Your wife, of using evil magic."
 
Anon:" Luna, I am so sorry. I didn't mean to accuse you of anything."
 
>Luna starts crying loudly
 
Anon:" Please Luna! Please! Stop crying my dear! Look lets go to the Ponyville Park. I know how much you love to spend time there"
 
Luna:" PONYVILLE PARK? WHY WOULD WE GO THERE? WE'RE ROYALTY ANON! WE NEED TO START ACTING LIKE IT! NOW TAKE ME TO CANTERLOT GARDENS AT ONCE AND MAYBE, JUST MAYBE I CAN FORGIVE YOUR STUPID ASS."
 
Anon:"Luna... How could you say such things? Come. I'll take you to the gardens." Anon says in a melancholic tone of voice
 
>Anon reluctantly takes Luna to the Canterlot gardens where she is more rude to him than before.
 
Luna:" ANON! WHY AREN'T THE BLADES OF GRASS EVEN? ARE YOU SOME KIND OF IDIOT? THIS PLACE LOOKS HORRIBLE. IF THIS IS CANTERLOT, I CAN'T IMAGINE PONYVILLE BEING ANY WORSE. TAKE ME IMMEDIATELY THERE YOU IMBECILE!"
 
Anon:" Luna, I love you. You know I would do anything for you, but aren't you being a bit demanding my Dear?"
 
Luna: *uses the royal canterlot voice* "A BIT DEMANDING?! WHEN DID YOU BECOME SUCH A SELFISH ASS HOLE? NOW CARRY ME THERE AT ONCE!"
 
Anon:" Anything for you dear." Says anon in a dull voice
 
>Luna gets on Anon's back as he flies her to the ponyville park.
 
>Anon crash lands and his entire body gets buried in the ground while Luna remained unscathed and simply steps off Anon with a scoff.
 
Luna: "Thank you Anon, you sack of shit. I love you so much Anon. Don't forget that please. No matter what I may say to you, I love you deep down in my heart."
 
Anon:" I love you to Luna."
 
>Out of the corner of his eye, Anon sees none other than nightmare moon hiding in the shadows of the trees.
 
>Anon is shocked to see her for Luna is standing right beside him
 
>Nightmare Moon gestures for him to come over
 
Anon:" Luna, darling, Princess Twilight demands your regal appearance, please go to her. I will be with you soon."
 
Luna:" So be it."
 
Anon says to himself:" Whew. Got rid of Luna for now. Wow, I never thought I would ever say that."
 
>Anon sneaks over to Nightmare Moon and meets her in the shadows as she transports them to her old Castle
 
Anon:" Luna... I mean Nightmare Moon, What is the meaning of this? How are you here?! Shouldn't you be inside Luna?"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Anon, Thou remembers thou's nightmare correct? T'was I trying to warn you of Luna's kidnapping. The evil Queen of the changelings, Queen Chrysalis, Took Luna from you. She imprisoned her inside her necklace. She is feeding off her and your love for each other. She is not only going to use your own love against you, Anon, She is going to use it against all of Equestria. She wants to take over Equestria and over throw all of the Royal Family. If you are wondering how I am even in existence if Luna is imprisoned, She didn't imprison her physically, she trapped her soul inside, Leaving the body which is me. She forgot that.. I love thee too Anon. The Luna you have been with since the dawn of the day is not Luna. It is Queen Chrysalis. "
 
> a look of shock comes across anons face
 
"Nightmare moon, this information is vital , thank you for this, it will save Luna and you from that...well what is a changeling? I've never seen one."
 
>Nightmare moon looks around to check for "Luna"
 
A changeling is a creature that can assume the form of anypony, they use this power to infiltrate positions of power and feed on the love of their subjects.
 
"How do I stop her? And get Luna back and stop Chrysalis feeding off my love?"
 
Anon added "But thank you nightmare moon, I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't come along"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Anon, To defeat a changeling, you must first get her to reveal herself. The best way to do that is to go to the Castle and have Celestia talk to her. The last time she struck this kingdom, Princess Cadence and Prince Shining Armor Used their love to over come her. However I doubt that will work again Anonymous. She most likely has learned since the last time. You are going to have to find a new way to defeat her. I am sorry. I will however gladly assist you in the battle. I want my other half back Anon."
 
Anon:" Yeah, So do I. She's my soul mate and I can't live without her. I admit having you here is comforting but having all of you is better."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Alright Anon. I will be in the shadows. Go do what you must. You can summon me at anytime."
 
Nightmare moon disappeared in a shimmer of blue haze
 
"I better find twilight she'd know what happened the last time" thought anon
 
A feminine screech was heard "ANON!"
"STOP BEING LAZY AND COME HERE WE NEED TO GO SEE TO SOMETHING"
 
"Luna..I have other things to do today other than carry you around , I apologise" anon said trying to hide his anger at the imposter.
 
"Luna" calmed herself
 
"Sorry darling I'm just stressed today!" She said with a forced smile "please I need to show you something in the everfree forest it's a gift for your gift!"
 
Anon knew this was a trap, he would have fallen for it if NMM hadn't warned him
 
He knew he couldn't let this changeling know that he knew the truth about her.
 
"That's wonderful dear but I already have prior engagements it will have to wait till later" anon said with a calm tone
 
Luna: "WHAT OTHER ENGAGEMENTS COULD YOU POSSIBLY HAVE? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SPEND TIME WITH ME, YOUR WIFE LUNA!"
 
Anon:" Well actually I had to go see our sister, Luna. Would you like to come with me my love?"
 
Luna :" Celestia... eh? That would be terrific... Take me to her at once Anon!"
 
Anon:" Sure, follow me Luna."
 
Luna : "FOLLOW? You must mean "Get on my back Luna, I'll fly you to Canterlot and then you can talk to Celestia." !"
 
>Anon groans in displeasure as he has to carry her again
 
>Anon lands at the Castle and goes to see Celestia
 
>Anon starts running to Celestia leaving Luna behind
 
Anon:" Celestia!!! It's Luna!!! It's not really her!!! It's Queen Chrysalis!!!"
 
Celestia:" Impossible!"
 
>She enters the room and changes out of her disguise
 
Chrysalis:" You better believe it Celestia! The Love these two share is 20 times as powerful as the love Cadence and Shining Armor shared! I will be unstoppable!"
 
>Chrysalis wastes no time and immediately shoots a beam directly at Celestia
 
"NO! I WONT LET YOU HURT MY SISTER!"
 
>Suddenly Nightmare Moon appeared and had used her magic to fire a beam against Chrysalis
 
Celestia:" Nightmare Moon! Why are you doing this?!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Because I know what love is dear Sister. I understand now and I love you and Anon too much to let you be defeated by this witch!"
 
>Needless to say, Nightmare Moon fought in vain. She lost and was sent away
 
Chrysalis:" Tis a shame, She was a truly wonderful villain while she was one. Now time for you to meet your Doom Celestia!"
 
>meanwhile inside the necklace Chrysalis is wearing, Luna is in tears
 
>She sees all that Chrysalis Sees. She sees the destruction the Queen is doing and how much harm she is causing Celestia and Anon
 
Luna:" I know this is all because I love Anon so much... Chrysalis feeds off of love... What do I do? Do I give up on my love for Anon and save Equestria? or do I keep loving him and hope in vain somepony can stop her?
 
Luna:" I don't know what to do! Do I sacrifice my own love to save others? Or do I keep my love and let it be someone elses problem?!"
 
>Scene change back to battle
 
Anon:" Chrysalis, If you want to get Celestia, You will have to go through me. "
 
Chrysalis:" SO BE IT!"
 
Anon:" LUNA! DON'T DO IT! I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING! GIVE UP! GIVE UP! THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN TO SAVE EQUESTRIA! IT WILL BE BETTER FOR EVERYONE THIS WAY!!!"
 
>Luna hears her beloved Anon's words and makes her choice to sacrifice her Paradise for the peace of the rest of Equestria.
 
>Chrysalis shoots a beam instead at Celestia, but Anon jumps in the range instead
 
>Everyone gasps at the act Anon just committed
 
Celestia:" CHRYSALIS! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS! FIRST MY SISTER! NOW MY BROTHER!"
 
>Luna starts to grieve over not only Anon but her love for him to. Soon She eliminates all her love from her heart using dark magic
 
>Chrysalis grows weaker but Anon's love is still feeding her
 
>Battle Of Magic Ensues between Celestia and Chrysalis
 
>The Castle is being destroyed by the magic battle as Celestia retreats and escapes the Palace to prevent further damage
 
>Chrysalis and Celestia being an all out war of Magic using all kinds of it against each other
 
>Meanwhile Luna is still in there Crying. Grieving over the loss of love and The utter destruction her love and the love of the one she loved is doing.
 
Celestia:" I wont let you get away with this! I have many re inforcements to call in!"
 
>Celestia calls in Discord and the M6 to help her defeat the Queen of the Changelings.
 
>An epic battle on all fronts ensues
 
>The changelings invade and again, The M6 take them on directly
 
>Discord attempts to distract the Queen and the changelings with Chaotic things occuring like raining Cats and Dogs
 
>Queen Chrysalis still continues to fight Celestia despite all the distractions
 
>Luna is growing bitter and dark as she starts to give up hope on anyone ever rescuing her or defeating Chrysalis
 
>Anon felt the magic blast hit him, he remembered it feeling like a electric shock, like lightning
 
His vision went black.
 
>he "awoke" to the smell of burning rubble.
 
He looked around . 2 skeletons in combat gear sitting next to each other against a wall, like old friends.
 
A devasted cityscape.
 
The land scorched and devoid
 
He knew exactly where he was and it shook his heart wih dread
 
Earth.
 
Or so he thought, the environment started to shimmer and disappear. And what he saw changed.
 
The sun was bright blue and the streets were filled with people. They walked straight through him as if he was a ghost.
 
It was a dream, slightly relived, but he became concerned again. Was he dead? Passed out?
 
He tried to focus on reality and waking up
 
He could hear the faint echo of celestia and the mane six shouting , there was a battle going on.
 
He willed himself to wake up. To help them save Luna. He HAD to.
 
It wouldn't work...was he dying? He thought
 
He heard Lunas voice whisper "wake up anon. Please! You're not gone yet!"
 
An arrogant voice cut in "you want to see her again? You want to free her?"
 
It was him, himself , his darker side personified. His human dark side
 
"You..." Anon said accusingly
 
>The figure was sat on a wall sharpening a knife
 
>it was anons human dark side, the personification of all his human darkness and recklessness , however greatly reduced in power and restricted to his subconscious , much like Luna and nightmare moon
 
"Hello again old friend. Well hello to myself" he retorted sarcastically and tossing the knife away.
 
"Loving the whole equine look you have there, " he mocked
"don't bother explaining it , I know everything you know .
 
 
"I destroyed you! You're gone!!" anon screamed
 
"Calm yourself you idiot, I'm here to help your sorry ass, and besides that little temper tantrum you had with me back home AND changing your fucking species means I can never actually get back in the drivers seat" he said with a tone of annoyance
 
"...shame really I had fun back then...what a party"
 
"Get to the point" anon interjected
 
"Alright fine, that shapeshifter bitch? She runs on love? Simple solution!
 
" erase your love for whats her name-Laura-lara"
 
"Luna" anon sighed
 
"Suppress it , cut off her supply of power, boom! problem solved!
 
...it will still be there ...but inaccessible you'll be able to feel anything other than love. That's the price of victory."
 
Anon looked angry "WHAT how is that an easy solution to live with"
 
"Oh come you'll find a way to get it back? Not that I'd give a shit" his dark side muttered
 
"Also do me a favor when you get back out there, since I'm stuck back here and forced to watch the crappy show you call your life."
 
"What?" anon inquired frustratedly
 
"Please fight something, like one of those shapeshifting things. There's no danger anymore in our lives man!
 
having to watch your day to day exploits bores the living HELL out of me,trapped here in your mind, whilst you play bucking bronco with Luna."
 
>Anon glares at him angrily
 
"What?! You have to remember I'm not even real.
 
"Two." He slaps anon
"I'm basically you"
 
"Three, this is a dream and you nearly died"
 
"Now wake the fuck up" he slaps anon again
 
>Anon sees a bright light.
>returning to the real world and the battle
 
>Anon woke up and thought he was in the midst of the large battle between Celestia and Her changelings
 
>Instead he was inside the old Canterlot Catacombs where he somehow ended up with Nightmare Moon
 
Nightmare Moon:" Ah Anon! You're finally awake! It has been some time since you were sent here. I presumed your spirit had passed on, but it now looks like that wasn't the case at all. Welcome back Anon"
 
Anon:" Where the hell are we Nightmare Moon? What happened to Chrysalis, Luna err you, and Celestia?
 
Nightmare Moon:" Right now they are fighting an epic battle. I used my magic to see what Luna saw and it isn't pretty. Luna was in shambles again Anon. She no longer loves you. In fact she is mourning over the loss of love more than anything right now. It is time for you to do the same Anon. If you wish to defeat Chrysalis, you have to do the unexpected."
 
Anon:"But how can I stop loving someone? I don't think its something that can happen within seconds all by itself. I really don't want to stop Loving her Nightmare Moon."
 
Nightmare Moon:" There is a spell to get rid of ones emotion of love entirely. It is a dark spell so I can not guarantee what will happen to you Anonymous. If you want to defeat the Queen, you have no choice as she is still getting stronger and striving off of your love for me, Luna."
 
>Evil Anon Manifests himself in a physical form that can do no harm and is more like a hologram
 
Evil Anon:" You know, she does have a point. That ugly black bitch is using your sappy love for Luta-"
 
Anon:" It is LUNA! I told you!"
 
Evil Anon:" Luna, Luta, whatever. Back to the point. That ugly bitch is using you like a Power plant. You're literally a generator to her man. "
 
Nightmare Moon:" Who might this be? He looks Human, just like you used to Anonymous. However, his point remain valid. This is your most formidable Enemy since I, Anonymous for this time, Love will not prevail. Love will not be the weapon used to defeat the evil. "
 
Evil Anon:" Hey there, I'm the manifestation of all evil lurking inside Anon's heart. You're nightmare moon, the one who Anon obliterated to get his *ahem* "Sweet Luna" back."
 
>Nightmare Moon seems shocked by this but shrugs it off for the time is not important now.
 
Nightmare Moon:" Anonymous, Hath thou made thy decision?"
 
Anon:" Nightmare Moon, Blast me. If this battle can't be won by love... maybe it can be won by using hate. I will have to tap into my dark powers in order to destroy Chrysalis and free Luna. Now do it and lets get out of these god forsaken catacombs."
 
>Nightmare Moon agrees to use the dark spell on Anon and it works
 
Anon:" I feel... nothing."
 
Nightmare Moon:" That's not right... you're supposed to feel everything but love."
 
Anon:" You didn't let me finish. I was going to say, I feel nothing... Nothing but Anger and Hate. I am going to kick that Queens ass so hard that she will not dare come back to Equestria. Lets go."
 
>The hologram Evil Anon merges back into Anon and Nightmare Moon follows
 
>Meanwhile, During the battle, Celestia and Chrysalis are locked in a stalemate of magic. Neither can affect the other.
 
>Suddenly, the Queen's power begins to drop and Celestia gains an advantage.
 
Celestia:" STOP NOW CHRYSALIS YOU FOOL! IF YOU WISH TO AT LEAST STILL HAVE YOUR KINGDOM, THEN I SUGGEST YOU SURRENDER!"
 
Chrysalis:" Never. "
 
>Chrysalis tapped into power that was unbeknownst to Celestia and her beam ended up being the stronger as Celestia took a hit and plummeted to the ground
 
>Luna begins to sob uncontrollably as she sees her sister plummet to the ground
 
>Then Anon saved Celestia from her fall by flying up and catching her and placing her gently on the ground
 
Chrysalis:" WHAT?! I THOUGHT I HAD DISPOSED OF YOU! INSOLENT FOOL!"
 
>Anon wastes no time and starts a spell of dark and evil magic filled with the emotion of hatred and rage
 
Anon:"Shut"
 
Chrysalis:" WHAT ARE YOU DOING? PREPARING A WEAK SPELL AGAINST ME? HA!"
 
Anon:" The"
 
Chrysalis:" If you honestly think that can harm me, you are sadly mistaken."
 
Anon:"Fuck"
 
Chrysalis:" You can never defeat me you imbecile! You will never get your precious Luna back!"
 
Anon:"UP!"
 
>He fires his spell
 
>the spell damages Chrysalis and frees Luna
 
Luna:"thank you Anon. You freed me. I would kiss you but it would mean nothing"
 
Anon:"keep your kisses. If you want to show your gratitude, help me defeat Chrysalis. Use any dark magic of yours you have. Join back with nightmare moon first though. "
 
Nightmare Moon:" please Luna. Come back to me. We can exist in harmony. Anon showed that to me. "
 
Luna:" If you say so."
 
>Luna and Nightmare Moon become one again and Luna looks like her old self again.
 
Anon:"come on Luna. My princess. We may not feel the love but the bond itself is there. Let us defeat Chrysalis once and for all. "
 
Luna :" alright Anon. I'll prepare my worst for her. We will stop the changelings. "
 
>Luna and Anon use a dark spell and repel the changelings and Banishes Chrysalis to a prison on another world.
 
Chrysalis :" HOW IS THIS HAPPENING?! YOU TWO HAD AN UNBREAKABLE LOVE! HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO DEFEAT ME?! "
 
Anon:" by using the exact opposite of love. Hate. "
 
Chrysalis:" I never knew that such love birds were capable of such intense hate. Welcome to the dark side Anon. Enjoy your stay. You're gonna be here for a while. "
 
Anon:" What the hell are you talking about?! "
 
Chrysalis:" Oh nothing"
 
Luna:" YOU WILL SPEAK NOW! YOU DO NOT DISRESPECT MY PRINCE. ALTHOUGH I MAY NO LONGER FEEL THE LOVE, WE ARE STILL PRINCE AND PRINCESS. DO NOT HURT MY ANON! NOW GO TO HELL! "
 
>Chrysalis is finally banished after some banter
 
Evil Anon:" Ooh this is getting good! Anon actually decided to kick some ass Eh? Congrats Anon. You defeated the baddie. Good job. Gold star! "he says in a sarcastic tone
 
Anon:" Alright alright. Now get back in me man. "
 
Luna:" Anon... What do we do now? I never planned this far ahead... "
 
Anon:" We find a way to get our love back. I gave up the feeling of paradise but at least the paradise is still here. That paradise is still you Luna. "
 
>Fast forward a few hours after the battle, the adrenalin of the fight has worn off and anon are unable to feel their love for each other
 
 
>It's the middle of the day and anon and Luna are in bed but they are not embracing each other lovingly , the spark is gone however and are not embracing each other.
 
>Anon can't sleep he gets up looks to Luna with a depressed gaze "I can't sleep, I'm going out"
 
Luna looks back with the same gaze "oh. Ok."
 
Anon goes to say something
 
"I-"
 
he stops himself he can't say it, the feelings not there as much as he wishes it . It's not
 
"I'll be back later Luna"
 
Anon wandered outside and took to flight
With the midday sun shining bright. But he did not feel the warmth within his heart. It just wasn't there.
 
He felt like a chunk had been ripped out of his very soul , all the love and affection he had for Luna , he remembered clearly , but now it was gone...lost in order to defeat that chrysalis...
 
Anon lands softly next to a lake , he takes a drink from the water.
 
Upon doing so he sees his reflection. He wears a sad look upon his face...he feels a pang of anger rise up inside him, he stuck out at the still water , violently disturbing its surface.
 
"Stupid!..."anon muttered to himself
"It was the only way...but why ?" he thought as he sunk down underneath the shade of a nearby tree sluggishly.
 
"There will be a way to fix this , there has to be!" He mutters to himself desperately
 
>Soft tears form in his eyes ,anon
Begins to cry out of pure despair that he can't feel anyform of love"
 
>Fast Forward
 
>It's night time and it is time to raise the moon
 
>Anon has been missing since he left Luna's Bedroom.
 
>Luna is concerned but in the end starts to not care about Anon.
 
Luna:" This will be the first night in a month I have had to raise the moon without the feeling of joy or love in my heart. I feel nothing but depression and sorrow. I know I had to do this for the safety of Equestria, but at what cost? "
 
>Celestia comes into Luna's room and finds her crying by herself in misery
 
Celestia:" Dear sister, what is the matter? Are you not happy that we managed to get rid of Queen Chrysalis again? You and Anon banished her! Equestria is truly at peace! Rejoice My Sister!"
 
Luna:" How can I rejoice if my heart is as black as the night I am responsible for? Life has no more meaning to me Sister. Without him, I am a mere lonely fool, wallowing in her past without escape. Anon changed that about me. His love had brightened up my heart and entire spirit. Now he's gone. He has been missing for hours. Not only is he gone, Our love is to. In order to Celestia, Some wounds, never heal. "
 
Celestia:" What do you mean Anon is gone? He defeated Chrysalis with you. My word he saved my life! I never got to repay him to show my gratitude. "
 
Luna:" He left earlier in the day, about Noon. He and I lacked the spark we once shared. Tis a true shame. Our one month anniversary was only a day before Chrysalis invaded and kidnapped me. Seeing what she was doing to my Anon broke my heart. Alas, my love was too strong, as it was my downfall. Anon quickly learned that. Because Cadence and Shining Armor defeated Chrysalis using love, the only way left to do it was with the power of anger and hate. Our love for each other was so strong, Anon knew Chrysalis would end up prevailing had we not sacrificed something. "
 
Celestia:" What did you sacrifice Luna?"
 
Luna:" Me and Anon... We sacrificed our love. We knew that in order for her to not gain any more power. Anon grew bitter afterwards. So did I. Celestia... I don't know love anymore. I remember it! I have memories of how happy I was! But alas, these memories bring me nothing but sadness. I don't care for Anon anymore. I don't care about him at all. If he were to go back to the human world and perish, I would not be affected what so ever. The bond that holds us together is now nothing more than a mere thread."
 
Celestia starts to cry:" Luna... I am so sorry. I can not imagine how you feel. You must be angry, sad, and confused, bitter as well. I remember, I was very depressed when I sent you to the moon. I missed my sister That I loved. You don't miss Anon but I can still see some concern. Your care is still there, but it is a mere dwarf compared to what it used to be. I am so sorry Luna. I did not know the lengths you had to go through to save Equestria. You gave up your happiness, your love, your paradise, to save us all. I am forever grateful to you Luna. Please Luna, Dearest Sister, If there is anything I can do for you, Anything at all, please let me know. I will do my best to fulfill your request."
 
Luna:" Celestia, Thank you. I do not require anything right now. May you please go? I would prefer to sulk in loneliness."
 
Celestia:" So be it Luna."
 
> Celestia Leaves Luna with herself
 
>Celestia goes to the throne and calls over twilight and her friends for immediate visiting
 
>The M6 arrive hastily
 
Celestia: " It's good to see you all again, Welcome. Twilight, Anon is missing, And I want you and your friends to go find him. Luna is a train wreck and I can't imagine Anon being any better. Please go find him before he does anything foolish"
 
Twilight:" Right away Celestia! Anon is one of my closest friends. I can't let him be miserable! Come on girls! Let's go!"
 
>Back at the castle, Luna raises the Moon by herself and forgets to flip it back before she raises it, seeing the engraving she made out of love for their one month anniversary.
 
>She starts to cry because remembering happy memories when you do not know happiness or love only brings pain.
 
Luna:" Damn it all... Damn it. There is no more point to my existence. Why am I even still here? I have lost essentially everything I care about. I cant even love anymore. Life is incomplete without such emotions. Life is unfulfilled."
 
>Luna rips the necklace Anon gave her off of her neck and throws it into the Everfree forest and flips the moon over to the natural side
 
>The stars in the night sky do not shine brightly as their light is fading away. The Moon itself doesn't have the same enchanting glow it once did.
 
>The pendant lands right next to Anon, surprisingly not shattering
 
Anon:" What is this? Oh... I see. It was this infernal thing I gave to Luna. It must mean less to her than it does for me by now... Damn it all. There is no point in living if you can not live a happy life. If one can not feel joy or love, life is wasted."
 
>After extensive hours of searching for Anon, Twilight and her friends at last find Anon, Desperately searching through books in the old Castle of the Royal Sisters
 
Anon:" GOD DAMN THIS INFERNAL LIBRARY AND THIS GOD FORSAKEN TASK OF MINE! I SHOULD JUST BANISH MYSELF BACK TO EARTH WHERE I CAN PERISH! THERE IS NO MORE REASON!"
 
Twilight:" Anon... what happened?"
 
Anon:" Oh, its you. What are you doing here? I can't imagine Luna sent you."
 
Twilight:" Celestia Sent us Anon. We came here looking for you not only because we were told to, because we wanted to. Like it or not we are all still friends. What happened between you and Luna anyway?"
 
Anon:" Don't fucking ask Twilight. You're the fucking brainiac. It's obvious what Luna and I had to do to defeat Chrysalis"
 
Twilight:" Anon, Whats the matter with you?! I haven't seen you this angry since the day you married Luna!"
 
Anon:" Luna? Luna?! LUNA?! SHE MEANS NOTHING TO ME ANYMORE!
 
I GAVE UP MY LOVE FOR HER AS SHE DID FOR ME TO DEFEAT THE GOD DAMN UGLY ASS HELL FUCKING QUEEN RETARD CHRYSALIS!
 
IF IT WASN'T FOR HER I COULD BE IN HARMONY! BUT NO! I AM DISTRAUGHT AND IN INTERNAL CHAOS! RAGE FILLS MY EMPTY HEART BECAUSE OF THE HOLE THAT THE NOW GONE LOVE LEFT!
 
WHY DO YOU EVEN FUCKING CARE? IT ISN'T EQUESTRIA'S PROBLEM ANYMORE. IT IS IN PEACE BECAUSE OF ME. I WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE. FUCK YOU ALL! ENJOY YOUR PEACE AND HARMONY YOU WORTHLESS WASTES OF LIFE!"
 
Twilight:" Anon... I can't believe you said that to us. But no matter what darkness may fill your heart, My friends and I's hearts are filled with light. Please Anon, let us help you. Let us in to your heart! We can help you! Whatever you need we can help!"
 
>Meanwhile at the castle Luna and Celestia exchange the throne as Luna takes over the night. She locks the doors and turns out the lights forbidding anyone to enter the throne room
 
>Twilight writes a letter to Celestia, which she immediately receives telling her they had found Anon and request that she appears before them instead.
 
>In haste Celestia flies to the Everfree Forest to meet Anon.
 
Celestia:" Brother... I am coming for you."
 
>Celestia Arrives as Anon is screaming at the M6 in rage and agony
 
Celestia:" Brother... Anon... Looks what's become of you. You turned from the most happy Pony in all of Equestria, to the Pony with the most anger and darkness in his heart. I can't believe my eyes. You look like a savage."
 
Anon:" Why should you care Celestia? You don't give a shit about me and you know it. All I am is a tool for you to use whenever Equestria is in danger. Listen Celestia, I may have loved before, but now no such feeling is present in my heart. It is non existent."
 
Anon:" I do not know why you even dare consider negotiating with such an unstable being such as myself. While I do miss Luna and the love I shared with her, I must accept that it is all over now. It is a thing of the past. This rage inside me comes from the utter hopelessness in my heart for I know that there is no way that love can re enter. I know there is no way to love again."
 
Celestia:" Anon. That is a lie. There is a way. I am surprised you don't remember this. There always is a way to undo any spell."
 
Anon:" Not this one Celestia. Bitterness and Rage and Anger have already flooded my heart. I miss Luna. I miss the love I shared with her. I miss the good times. It hurts to remember the good times I had with Luna because I know it can never happen again."
 
Celestia:" We can help you Anon. We can help you with your research. Just please come back to the Castle. Luna locked herself in the throne room and she is in need of a companion. I know you two do not feel the love, but the bond that Love left behind is still there, albeit it is a mere thread instead of the once thought unbreakable bond. Anon, just spend time with Luna. I am sure through that, you can find a way. I can retrieve for you, the elements of Harmony and use their magic to banish the darkness in both yours and Luna's hearts. This will work only once though.
 
Anon:" I suppose that will be fine. Do it Celestia. I will come to the Castle and use the elements to banish the darkness for now."
 
>Meanwhile at the castle, Luna is talking to the only companion she has left, Her self or rather her Alter Ego, Nightmare Moon.
 
Luna:" Nightmare Moon... I can't handle it anymore. I hate Anon! This bitterness is over flowing! I never once thought in a million years would I ever say those words. It is unbearable! I miss the magic that we once shared, Anon and I, but at the same time, I don't care about him!"
 
Luna:" I have never been so conflicted in my life before Nightmare Moon! I want to love anon but I want to end him as well! The confusion is too much for me to handle! Nightmare Moon, What should I do?"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Luna, I can not help you. What I can do for you though, is return a portion of that love of your's back. Because Anon's love and conviction for you was so strong, it left a lasting impression on me. I can return that part back to you. It will be enough for you to continue caring about Anon and it will help you maintain a clear mind. I have asked Princess Celestia to return Anon to you as she has found him. They will be here shortly."
 
Luna:" YOU DID WHAT?! WHY DID YOU DO THAT?! I WANT TO SEE HIM ROT! I DO NOT CARE FOR HIM! I DO NOT NEED HIM OR ANYONE ELSE SO LONG AS I HAVE YOU!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" LUNA! STOP! I am a mere manifestation of all the darkness in your heart! A product of your mind! An Alter-ego! I should not be this kind to you! Anon's love made me change though. Please in the name of all things good please, just let it happen."
 
Luna:" But..."
 
Nightmare Moon:" NO BUTS! NONE! I WILL NOT TOLERATE IT!"
 
>Anon walks through the door and turns on the light
 
Anon:" Hello, Luna. I heard everything and listen. I want to bring back our love. I know it wont be easy but still, give it a chance. You never know what could happen."
 
Luna:" Forgive me if I withold my enthusiasm Anon. I do not believe our love is a thing that can be rescued. Tis is a lost cause you are fighting for, And I wish to be a part of it."
 
Celestia:" Anon, Luna, The elements of harmony are a mere quick fix. They will not revitalize the spark or the magic, but it will at least make you care for each other more."
 
Anon:" Use them please Celestia."
 
Luna:" Please Sister"
 
>Celestia uses the elements and they remove the negative thoughts both Luna and Anon had
 
Both:" Thank you Celestia"
 
>Weeks pass slowly but surely pass
 
> Anon had been looking through every single book in Equestria in a desperate research attempt to find something that can bring back the emotion of love.
 
>Anon would get so involved with his studies, He would bark at anyone who dared disturb him. He had one thing on his mind, and that was to return things back to the way they were.
 
>In order to vent out some of the frustration and bitterness, Anon would go to the Equestrian gym and ask Luna to be there with him as he would exercise his frustrations out. He slowly built strength which he was sure He would need should he continue his pursuit of knowledge.
 
>Fast forward to a week before the second month anniversary
 
> Luna and Anon had just raised the moon
 
Luna:" The night, it does not shine and glow with the magic and enchantment as it used to Anon. It faintly glows with despair and depression. The night sky represents my feelings Anon. I have not been happy for a long time."
 
Anon ,who is already back at his studies, says:" Oh okay. "
 
Luna:" ANON! Come on! I know you are working hard to return our love but still!"
 
Anon:" EUREKA! HOLY FUCKING SHIT! LUNA!!! I FOUND IT!! I KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!"
 
Luna in a burst of excitement screams:" Really?! I can't believe it! What is the solution to our problem?!"
 
Anon:" The elements of passion. They were used many many many years ago. Before you or Celestia were born. They were used to unite two people that hated each other or re unite those whose love has faded. The only problem is... There are two of them Luna... and they are on opposite sides of the world."
 
Luna:" We need to go get them!"
 
Anon:" You see Luna, there can be no we in this. The elements of passion, in order to work must be picked up at the very same time. We need to journey apart from each other to the poles of the world, where the Elements of Passion rest."
 
Luna:" Anon, our relationship is so fragile now, Are you sure this will work?"
 
Anon:" Absolutely positive."
 
Luna:" For the first time in a month, I am truly happy! Oh Anon! We can finally have our love back! I am so excited!"
 
Anon:" Me too! We have to tell Celestia and the others first though."
 
>Luna and Anon go to see Celestia in her room as they run in excitement
 
Anon:"Bet I can beat you to Celestia's room!"
 
Luna:"Not even in your dreams Anon! "
 
>eventually Luna beats anon
 
Anon:" I forget how fast you really are Luna, man its been too long since we've enjoyed ourselves. "
 
Luna:" I agree! My heart feels uplifted like it's rising from the bottom of the ocean! I have not been anywhere close to happy since our One month anniversary Anon!"
 
>Anon knocks on the door and Celestia greets the two with a huge smile of surprise on her face
 
Celestia:"Luna! Anon! Great to see you! I haven't seen you two with this much energy in what feels like forever! Good to see you two happy" she says with a smile on her face
 
Luna:"Oh dearest Sister! We have amazing news! Tell her Anon!!"
 
Anon:"Of course Luna! Celestia, through my extensive non stop research, I have finally found a book about the Elements of Passion! They are two elements that would unite two Ponies together or Reunite them! "
 
Celestia:" My my! That truly is great news! Do tell more about the Elements of Passion please! "
 
Anon:" The elements of passion were two elements that Ponies used long before either you or Luna were born. It was a means to make peace between Pony nations.
 
Kings usually made their princes or princesses use it to fall in love with a Princess or prince from a different nation. This all eventually lead to the creation of the three nations before they all combined to turn into one.
 
After all the alliances and marriages and all the sorts, The many nations turned into three race based nations. There was the earth pony nation, the Pegasus nation, and the Unicorn nation. These elements of passion are indirectly responsible for the creation of Equestria.
 
They have long been un used. There is a catch though. For their power to be used, the two Ponies who wish to fall in love or be Re United must be touching the elements at the same time. The problem for us with that is, one is in the north pole and one is in the south. "
 
Luna:" Which means Anon and I must go our separate ways if this is to work."
 
Celestia:"I see. Regardless though, it is truly amazing news to hear that you have made a discovery. I will inform your friends tomorrow. I will have Pinkie arrange a small get together there. As a sort of send off and good luck party. "
 
Luna:" Excellent idea dear Sister! I love it! "
 
Anon:" Sounds like a plan to me Celestia! I can not wait for tomorrow. I will miss everyone though. I'll miss Luna most of all. What is left of our love will truly be tested, Luna. Whether or not we are successful depends on our dedication and conviction. "
 
Luna:" I know Anon. I promise I will make sure that no matter what, I will find that element of passion. Our love is starting to rebuild itself, but it still doesn't feel the part. With the elements of passion, there is no doubt in my mind that our love will truly be stronger than ever."
 
Celestia:"I do hate to interrupt you two Luna and Anon, but you see I'm not exactly a night Pony, I have duties I must attend to in the morning. I want to go to sleep now. Thank you for understanding. You two have fun!"
 
>Anon and Luna nod in agreement and leave Celestia to her rest
 
Luna:" Anon... I'd really like it if you came inside my bed with me again instead of sleeping on the guest mattress. I want to give it a try again. Please? "
 
Anon:" With pleasure Luna. But we still have some time to kill before we go to bed, the night is still young Luna."
 
Luna: "That is true, is there anything you would like to do Anon? "
 
Anon:" Actually yes! I was thinking maybe, we can go back to our old spot in the Canterlot Gardens? It has been much too long since we have been there together."
 
Luna:" Then let's go Anon! I can beat you there! "
 
>Luna and Anon playfully race towards the Gardens
 
>Anon and Luna tie in the race
 
>The two lay down beside each other in the beautiful Gardens letting the moonlight shine upon them
 
Anon:" You know Luna, this night might be our very last together."
 
Luna:" Why do you say that Anon? "
 
Anon:" Who knows what perils we may face on our quest. One of us might not make it back. Let's make this night, the best night we can"
 
Luna:" That is actually a very good point Anon. Also, did you have anything in mind on what to do to make it the best night we can? "
 
"Luna...this is our last night together before we leave on our quest. The elements of harmony quelled the despair in my heart and yours...our love isn't back to the way it was but compared to the past months we've both had to experience...it's a miracle." Anon said
 
"I thought I'd never feel the same anon"
Luna said softly
 
"So alone in my own despair and bitterness like you we're gone from this world. But you weren't Anon. You were right there and yet so distant..."
 
"I know Luna , the spark isn't back to the way it used to be, but its there albeit hidden...but with the elements of passion we can reignite it!"
 
>Anon puts his hoove softly on Luna's
 
"We'll get through this, i know we will"
 
"I hope so anon" says Luna with a sad softness in her voice
 
>Anon comes closer to her
 
"What's wrong?" He inquired
 
>Luna suddenly embraces anon with tears falling onto anons shoulders
 
"what if we don't see each other again! What if this doesent fix everything? Wha-"
 
>Anon holds her closely
 
"Luna. Trust me, what we have can't be destroyed so easily,
 
From the moment I met you I knew there was something truly magical between us
 
it's buried under dark magic but not lost, we WILL get it back"
 
>Anon embraces Luna in a deep affectionate kiss under the starry sky
 
"I love you anon"
"And I love you Luna"
 
>the spark didn't feel as strong as before due to the dark magic but it gave anon and Luna hope for their quest.
 
>the two alicorns lay next to each other under the night sky , enjoying the peaceful moment of love and affection they held for each other in that moment, neither one wanting it to end
 
Luna:" Anon, it's time to raise the sun on the day of our parting."
 
Anon:" Oh, Luna, I really never wanted this night to end. It was becoming so nice and I was finally feeling something for the first time since the invasion."
 
Luna:" I was feeling it to Anon. But unfortunately, we can't manipulate time. The time has come. I still worry about the journey ahead of us Anon. "
 
Anon:" I do too Luna. But I am very certain that our quest, will not be in vain."
 
Luna:" Alright, then let's do it Anon. Let's lower the moon and let's rest until we must depart. It pains me to think that... This may be the very last time we sleep in the same bed... This may be the last time we lower the moon... This may be the last time we ever hear of each other ever again..."
 
Anon:" Luna... Please... Try not to think like that... I know with enough effort, anything is possible."
 
Luna:" I promise Anon, I will do my best to not let these sad thoughts over power my mind and make me lose sight of the goal"
 
>The two lower the moon in a depressing demeanor and make way for the sun to shine on them
 
Luna:" Anon... If you'd please... come to bed with me... for one last time?"
 
Anon:" With pleasure Luna. "
 
>The two walk slowly back to their room, holding each other's hooves for what could be their last time
 
>Luna and Anon lay down in their bed
 
Luna:" Sleep well, Sweet Prince... See you in my dreams..."
 
Anon:" You to, my Darling..."
 
>The two sleep during the wee hours of the morning
 
>They begin to have a dream about the quest itself but this dream quickly turns into nightmare
 
>The nightmare is their true worst fears
 
>Luna Is at the south pole searching for the element of passion
 
Luna:" Oh Anon... How I wish you were here... I could use your motivation more than ever... This dark and depressing and lifeless place is starting to get to me"
 
>Suddenly, Ancient Dark creatures start to sprout up as Luna continues down her path
 
>They begin attacking her
 
Luna:" No! I can't let them win this! There is too much at stake! I must go on! I will not let you defeat me Dark Creatures!"
 
>A fight of magic ensues with Luna against the dark creatures
 
>Eventually, Luna collapses and begins to accept her fate
 
>As she is being frozen solid forever, Nightmare Moon steps out and defends her
 
NMM:" IF YOU WANT TO GET TO HER YOU HAVE TO GET THROUGH ME! SHE IS MINE NOW! BACK AWAY FOUL LOWLY CREATURES!"
 
>The Dark Creatures retreat in fear of Nightmare Moon
 
Luna:" Thank you Nightmare Moon... I don't know what-"
 
NMM:" Did you really think I was doing that to save you? I was doing that so I could torment you myself. A simple freezing alive isn't right. You deserve a far worse punishment.
 
Luna:"Anon... This is it... I'll never see you again... Good bye my prince..."
 
>As NMM prepares to finish Luna, a huge beam of light banishes Nightmare Moon back to the shadows and frees Luna
 
>The beam of light came from none other than Anon, wielding not only the Elements of Harmony, but the Element of Passion
 
Anon:" Luna, I wouldn't dare let anything happen to you. You are too important to me. Once I knew you were in trouble, I immediately rushed over here.
 
Luna:" Thank you Anon..."
 
>The dream ends as it is finally the time to wake up
 
>They both wake up in unison
 
Luna:" Anon... I can't believe the dream I just had!"
 
Anon:" Me either Luna. I am just glad I entered when I did."
 
Luna:" That was really you Anon? And not some figment of my imagination?"
 
Anon:" It was really me Luna. Now come, we have to meet Celestia in the throne room. She will give us a ride to ponyville for our Farewell party. I can't imagine it there will be many smiles though"
 
Luna:" I can't either... Let's go Anon... The more time we waste... The further apart we get and the more love we lose."
 
>The two get packed up and ready to leave
 
>The two leave for the throne room and meet Celestia there
 
Celestia:" Brother! Sister! Great to see you! I hope you enjoyed last night with each other, You wont see each other for a while after today."
 
Anon:" We know Celestia. Let's just go to PonyVille so we can bid our farewell and begin our journey"
 
Celestia:" I see you do not want to waste any time. Let's go then."
 
>Celestia, Anon, and Luna travel down to ponyville together for their last moment together for what they think will be a long time
 
>Celestia, Luna, and Anon depart from The Royal Castle to PonyVille
 
>As soon as they arrive they are greeted by all their closest friends, the princesses, the prince, and the rest of the M6
 
Celestia:" Allow me to say a few words please before this party gets started."
 
Anon:" Go ahead Celestia"
 
Celestia:" Everypony, we are gathered here today, to bid farewell to Equestria's second royal Couple, My sister Princess Luna, and her husband, My brother, Prince Anon. We are here not only to bid farewell but to celebrate our friendship together and to wish them the best of luck and safe travels for the journey ahead of them."
 
Luna:" Celestia... Thank you so much! I had no idea this is what you were going to do for me and Anon! I am simply speechless! Words can not truly describe how I feel right now!"
 
Anon:" Yes Celestia, thank you so much for all that you have done for us. I really appreciate it! I say that from the bottom of my heart, Sister."
 
Cadence:" Luna, Anon. I came here to PonyVille just to see you all the way from the Crystal Empire with Shining Armor. I have to say thank you so much for what you did to save Equestria from that evil Queen Chrysalis. I know it was tough and it still is to this day, but please don't lose sight of your love. If it's anyone who knows love, It's me. And what you two had was a love even deeper than my love for Shining Armor and his love for me. Good luck to you both! I really can't wait to see you two again!"
 
Luna:" Thank you Cadence" *Luna starts to tear up* " Thank you everypony for being here! This means more to me than you know!"
 
Anon:" Everypony, this truly means so much to me! I can't believe you all came here just to see Luna and I one last time before we go! Thank you all so much."
 
Twilight:" Anon, Luna! Please don't go yet! Please, stay with us for a while longer! Have some fun!"
 
Anon:" What do you say Luna? Are you ready to have some fun?"
 
Luna:" Of course! Let's have some fun!"
 
Anon:" Hooray! I bet you can't beat me in a race from here to the library and back!"
 
Luna:" You're On!"
 
>The two playfully race together and end up tying
 
>The two laugh and hug, still missing a true spark, but this time it has more emotion than it has since the defeat of Chrysalis
 
>From then on, they conversed with their friends and had tons of fun playing little games
 
>Unfortunately, these good times must end
 
Anon:" Luna... Its time to go... we have a quest we have to fulfill for our love. "
 
Twilight:" Anon! Wait! Let us come with you!"
 
Luna:" Twilight, we would take you and everyone here, but it is a quest we must do alone"
 
Anon:" Luna, before we depart and go our separate ways, there is something I'd like to give you."
 
Luna:"What is it Anon?"
 
Anon:" First Luna, promise me one thing"
 
Luna:" I will promise anything Anon!"
 
Anon:" Promise me that you will never change. Promise me that when we get the Elements, you will not change at all. Please."
 
Luna:" I swear I will not Anon."
 
Anon:" Alright Luna, here have this. Remember this? It's your old pendant I gave to you on our First anniversary. You became so bitter after Chrysalis that you threw it into the Everfree forest, where I was. It hit me on the head, and as I almost crushed it, I couldn't do it and simply put it in my satchel. I have waited to give this to you again, for such a moment like this. Luna, a part of my heart is now in that pendant, please promise me, you'll never let it out of your sight."
 
Luna:"... Anon... you have left me speechless..." * Luna begins to cry* "Anon... I.. I can't believe you kept this... after I threw it away in anger and hate! I am so happy to have such a wonderful gift back! Thank you Anon! Thank you... I wish I could properly show my gratitude, but I have no idea on how to do so!"
 
Anon:" I can think of one way."
 
>Anon kisses Luna
 
>Luna begins to kiss back as her heart starts to liven up and fill with a small spark
 
Luna:" Anon! I felt something that time! If this is what I'm feeling now, Imagine how our lives will be complete again with the elements of passion!"
 
Anon:" I felt it too Luna! However, it is truly time we must part. If we don't make it back before our Second Month anniversary, I want you to know, I love you."
 
Luna:" I love you to Anon... I love you to..." Luna says beginning to walk away from her prince as tears begin to flow down her face " Goodbye Anon!"
 
Anon:" Don't say good bye to me Luna, we'll see each other again sooner than you know it!"
 
>Anon starts walking away as well, tears flowing down his face as well as he must now leave the pony he cared for more than anything else.
 
>This was a truly difficult moment for both Anon and Luna. They began to cry more and more by the second but they knew that they must remain strong for each other
 
Anon:" Man... It's been only an hour since I last saw Luna, and I miss her so much already. I really hope I can find the elements of passion. I would do anything for her. "
 
>Snow begins to start falling
 
Anon:" Would you look at that, Snow. I haven't seen snow since my time on the world from whence I came. Ah the fun I used to have in the snow with my friends and family. Oh the fun I could be having with Luna with the snow right now. Everywhere I look, something reminds me of her. I haven't even made it out of Equestria yet and things are already starting to look bad."
 
 
 
>Meanwhile, back in Canterlot
 
Celestia:" This is the first night in over a year that I have had to raise the moon and my Sister Luna was not here to do it. Luna has changed a lot since she met Anon. I am so happy for her. But I still do wonder, what if they never met? Would Luna still have trouble with Nightmare Moon? Would Equestria even exist? Many questions spiral in my mind. Well, time to lower the sun and raise the moon. Perhaps I will do something special for Luna and Anon to help inspire them to keep going on their quest. Ah yes! I know exactly what to do!"
 
>Celestia lowers her sun and raises Luna's moon. This time though, the moon was flipped back to the side where Luna had engraved the majestic picture of her and Anon sharing a kiss which she had made for their one month anniversary.
 
 
 
>Back to Anon
 
Anon:" Would you look at that. It's the moon from my anniversary with Luna. I doubt this is Luna's doing, she has to keep going! I have to keep going. I can't stop. The North pole is still a long way from here. I wish I could fly there and just come back home, but the trip would be too long."
 
>Anon approaches what seems to be a colony of sorts of ponies
 
Anon:" An Equestrian Colony? This far out? Wow I'm surprised."
 
Anon:" Eh, maybe I should enter the colony, see what happens. Maybe I can meet some colonists who would be willing to help their prince."
 
>Anon enters the colony and moves towards the town hall
 
Anon:" Everyone seems to be asleep. All these ponies are truly missing out on the wonders of the night. I just hope the mayor of this town is still here."
 
>Anon knocks on the doors to the city hall
 
Anon:" Hello? This is Prince Anon! I request that you let me in to the Town hall at once if possible!"
 
>The door opens and Anon is greeted by the mayor
 
Mayor:" Welcome! How do you do? It's been so long since we've had visitors at the colony. What brings you here your highness?"
 
Anon:" I'm surprised you've heard of me, mayor. I honestly had no idea of this Colony's existence. Mind to shed some light on that for me? I am surprised that this is the first I've seen of this rather nice colony."
 
Mayor:" Ah, well we are one of the oldest colonies of Equestria ever! We might be the only one left excluding our sister colony in the south. I am surprised that you never heard of the Northern Colony. But It is still great to have royalty here! What brings you around these parts prince Anon?"
 
Anon:" Well you see, In order to save Equestria from Queen Chrysalis, My wife and I had to sacrifice the emotion of love in order to defeat her, which did work. But it nearly tore us apart. I spent weeks researching on how to bring it back, and I discovered an old book from around the time of Star Swirl the Bearded that told about the Elements of Passion. Me and Luna seek those elements in order to get our love back."
 
Mayor:" I'm terribly sorry to hear that, Prince Anon. If you need to, you can rest in the town for the night"
 
Anon:" Thank you mayor, I'll just occupy a house where I wont bother anyone. I don't want to wake anypony up."
 
>Anon leaves town hall and moves into a seemingly vacant home
 
Anon:" This reminds me of the place I moved into in Canterlot when I first came."
 
Anon:" I remember that night that changed my entire life forever. The night that I found Princess Luna waiting at the front door of my home.
 
It was a long day and I had been out for a walk to relax in the night like I used to do on Earth. Man.. Earth... That place is so dead. Luna had helped me over come my PTSD with her compassion for me. I had helped her deal with Nightmare moon over time. Luna and I clicked.
 
I remember when Celestia gave me the choice to go back to Earth. I had no idea at the time that the Earth was in ruin because I couldn't remember. I decided to stay here in Equestria though, and it was definitely the best choice I have ever made in my entire life.
 
The night is slowly turning into day now I see. I should probably get some rest. Try not to cry about Luna and all."
 
>Anon goes to sleep right after he watches the moon fall not from the balcony in which he always did with Luna but instead from a small window inside a home at the Northern Colony
 
Anon:" It doesn't feel right not to be with Luna, helping lower the moon. I miss her so much. I have to stay strong though. I need to get some sleep before I start going again. This is the first night since the night Luna and I met that we have not slept together in the same room."
 
>Anon struggles to fall asleep but eventually passes out and begins to dream.
 
>Anon begins to dream memories of him and Luna
>He remembers going to the gym with her, playing ludo, and much more.
 
>his dream progresses into the night of the gala
 
Anon:"I remember this all too well... It was truly a horrible moment in my life. I was about to get married and then all of a sudden, when nothing could go wrong, something did. I was swallowed up into a hole of darkness, seeing my Luna's Crying face as I was sent back to Earth. "
 
>Luna enters the dream
 
Luna:" Anon! It's me Luna!! I managed to enter your dream!! I just couldn't bear to have a dream without you. I was remembering all the good times we had like that first night and teaching you how to fly! "
 
Anon:" Oh my god it is you Luna!!! I have missed you!! It's been too long without you!! "
 
Luna:" it really has been! Anon I see you were remembering your forced visit back to earth. Would you mind continuing? I never got to see what you saw that night. "
 
>The memories start to roll
 
>Luna sees everything from the arrival to the Dark Anon self conflict to the end where he desperately sends himself back
 
Luna:" oh my lord! Anon, I can't believe that was all that was left of a world that was once so beautiful "
 
Anon:" It is a Damn shame what my people did in the end. We could have been so much more peaceful but no, we opted for our own destruction for we let in the seven deadly sins. The seven deadly sins ended up destroying all of humanity but me. "
 
Luna:" I know it mustve been hard to remember that Anon. I'm still so sorry for what happened. I am currently in the south colony FYI. I can't believe we're on nearly other sites of the world! "
 
Anon:" it truly is interesting isn't. "
 
Luna:" It really is! I am so happy that I can still enter your dreams though. I miss you Anon, more than I thought at first. This is the first time in forever since we've been apart for more than a day. Anon... please tell me... If we don't make it back, what will happen to us? What will happen to our love? What will happen to Equestria?"
 
Anon:" Luna, I can't say I truly know what will happen. We just have to keep faith in not only each other but ourselves. It's a hard thing to do, I know. Especially when we're so far apart and we still have a long way to go."
 
Luna:" I know Anon. I know. This is all for our love right? I will do anything for it and for you Anon. I love you Anon. I may not feel it in my heart, but the bond is still there."
 
Anon:" I love you to Luna. We have a dangerous journey ahead of us. Good luck to you Luna!"
 
Luna:" Anon, before we go... Can we please just cuddle together? This is as close as we are going to get in a long time... and I just want to be reassured that we are going to make it"
 
Anon:" Anything for you Luna. Just please remember, any time you are sad just look into your necklace, there you'll find a piece of me thats with you always."
 
>The two begin to snuggle and cuddle but the passion isn't quite there, regardless they continue
 
>Anon wakes up from his dream
 
Anon:" Luna? Luna?! LUNAAAAA?!! GOD DAMN IT WHY?!"
 
>Anon awoke from his dream in the middle of cuddling with his sweet princess and begins to cry tears of not only sorrow but rage as well
 
Anon:" Why did I have to wake up?! WHY?!!"
 
>A stranger is in the home and has a worried look on their face for they fear the Alicorn they just awoke.
 
 
 
> Meanwhile at the South Colony we find Princess Luna crying that she just lost contact with her beloved Anon.
 
Luna:" Oh cruel world, why must you take away the one I love? I wish he didn't have to go. I was truly enjoying my time with him so much. It might be the last time I see him, but I still wear the necklace and his heart is still here with mine."
 
>The sun is shining on the day as it is about Noon
 
Luna:" I should talk to the mayor of the South colony before I go, I should give them the traditional royal farewell."
 
>Luna sets off for the Town Hall and gives a goodbye to the citizens of the fine colony and promises them more attention in the future and apologizes for having forgot about them
 
Luna:" Fair townsponies, I must go and continue my quest. Thank you for allowing me to rest here Mayor, all your help is truly appreciated. Thank you once more for all that you have done. I shall be departing now and taking flight towards the south pole."
 
>The townsponies wave her good bye and hope to see her again some day
 
>Luna takes off with flight but is soon enough grounded by the bad weather and visibility.
 
>She is getting closer to the south pole as it starts to snow instead of rain and she uses her magic to prevent her from being wet and to provide some visibility in the snow
 
>Luna is alone with her own mind as she begins to think about Anon and how his quest must be going
 
Luna:" I do hope Anon is alright, I can't stop thinking about him. I just hate how abruptly our dream ended. I still love the necklace he gave me though, The element of Shining Darkness is truly the light within my heart. Without it, I am not sure what I would do. Ah I remember the night he gave me this. Our anniversary was so amazing and special. I remember when I first met Anon, I had no idea we would ever be more than friends. I hope our Two month anniversary will be good to, it's only a few days away."
 
 
 
>Anon looks around , startled from his sudden awakening and sees a young female earth pony standing in front of him, they seem intimidated by his presence as an Alicorn
 
"P-prince anon, sir, the mayor of the colony sent me! Do you need anything your highness? I am sorry for waking you!"
 
>Anon looks longingly out the window
 
"no don't worry it's fine , I was just in the middle of a dream, a good dream..."
 
"Is there anything you need sir?"the earth pony inquired
 
>anon pauses for a second
 
"Well yes...is there anypony with knowledge of the northern region? I need to to get to the pole. I'd like to know the best route to take from here."
 
"Oh of course! We have old Flint! He used to be part of our colonies old flyer team, I'm sure he would be happy to help you!"
 
>the earth pony leads anon from the house to a another one on the edge of the colony
 
"Flint! Are you there? You have a royal visitor! It's the new prince"
 
>the door is opened slowly to reveal a old and decrepit Pegasus with a beard, Anon and the earth pony are greeted by a cough
 
>anon turns his head towards the earth pony
 
"Thank you for you're help, uh please don't feel the need to worry about me all day , i won't keep you from your other duties...uh...sorry I never caught your name?
 
>the earth pony looks startled from the informality of Anon
 
"Oh...it's Summer sir" she said briskly
"Thanks you again summer" anon said
 
>she trots off
 
>the old Pegasus gives Anon a curious look but nonetheless beckons him inside
 
"come on in boy, what you needing old Flints help for anyway?"
 
>the old Pegasus stops and realises his mistake to talk so casually to Anon
 
"Oh! Er sorry yer highness, in my old age i forget myself...apologies and whatnot, I ain't never heard of you until recently in my time sir!"
 
"Oh no don't worry!, I'm grateful for your time Flint, I'm not used to being treated so formally.
 
I'm interested in your expertise and advice if you could help me,it would aid me greatly on my quest" reassured Anon
 
"Any help on the areas north of here to get to the pole would be extremely helpful"
 
>Flint scratched his head for a moment and took a moment to collect his thoughts
 
"I think I can help you there young-un, well firstly...ah where's the damned thing!"
 
>he's rummaging through old books and documents
 
"Aha!! Here we are, my old map, an old piece of history for me, made specially when this colony was founded...but ah ramble on if i continue!"
 
>Flint unrolls the map much to the interest of anon
 
>He puts a hoove to the map
 
"Right ye see , we're here, right?"
 
"Now see here Prince Anon, we are here, you want to get to the pole? The fastest route is through the northern valley imbetween the mountains,
 
always a quickun to take , been decades since I've been around them parts, getting to old for that these days, I'm surely grounded!" He chuckles heartily
 
"But a word of caution to ya...do not fly when you leave the valley... Not until you reach the tundra at least"
 
>Anon is intrigued
 
"Wait why what happens if I do?"
 
>Flint looked up with a harsh gaze
 
"that would be dragon territory , and these kind aren't sleeping in caves this time of year , you shouldn't even be in their territory, they're a nasty bunch. I have my doubts even an Alicorn like you could stand up to those type!"
 
"But I you keep your head down and keep to the shadows you shouldn't have any problems, they're a dumb lot those dragons though, big uns mind , but dumb as rocks!"
 
>anon looks shocked for a moment since he hasn't encountered any dragons other than spike and certainly none as large as Flint described
 
"I'll keep that in mind Flint, thank you for your help,"
 
"Oh!" Flint snapped "before you go! Take these , they'll be useful once you reach the tundra!"
 
>Flint hands him a pair of flying goggles
 
"I never use these anymore , they still work fine though, no wind or rain will blind you with those on!"
 
"I hope you find what yer looking for"
 
"I hope so too" says Anon with optimism
 
>Anon thanks Flint again and proceeds outside ready to journey on his quest
 
>after saying farewell and thank yous to the townfolk Anon sets off on flight
 
>It was almost sundown and night was approaching , he looked forward to the calming aura it always came with.
 
>The moon was out, he saw Lunas picture of him and her , he felt something stir in his heart , a soft warmth , not as powerful as the first time he saw it. "But that'll change soon enough" he thought and smiled
 
>Anon glides peacefully for hours across the valley and finally reaches the end and what is clearly the dragons territory
 
>he sees rocky plains and the faint glow of a lava flow off in the far distance
 
>He decides to rest before venturing further and comes to soft landing next to a river.
 
"Here seems a good enough spot to rest for now" anon muttered to himself
 
>he placed himself down underneath a nearby tree and went to sleep underneath the soothing and peaceful night sky
 
>Anon awoke from his slumber and was ready to move out again and journey through the dragon territory to the tundra
 
Anon let out a yawn
 
He proceeded on foot towards the rocky enviroment that was dragon territory
 
>anon felt uneasy , with dragons being something of myth and legend in his world but a real occurrence in this one he was daunted , but he convinced himself to carry on
 
He carefully made his way through the rockfalls and barren landscape
 
"So far so good" he thought as he climbed up over a pile of rubble
 
Then he saw it. a multiude dragons resting there. Bathing in the sunlight.
 
"Huh...I could sneak past using that canyon I suppose" Anon pondered to himself
 
>the sound of wings flapping and claws hitting stone are heard behind him
 
>Anon turns around sharply
 
>a snarky voice shouts out:
 
"You Lost pony?!" Followed by snickering
 
>Anon looks to face the source of the question, he is met with the sight of 3 dragons , larger than himself but not as big as the others resting further ahead.
 
>one of the dragons nudges the other and whispers "Alicorn" with a nervous look
 
>the larger dragon disregards his comment glares at Anon
 
"So what's this! the namby pamby pony princesses got themselves a prince? I'd scram if I were you pony, THIS is our territory!" Said the dragon with a arrogant tone
 
"None of your business dragon " anon snapped "I've more important things to do than argue with you!"
 
"Oh really?" Replied the dragon "how about you head on back home and we won't fry you like barbecue? Sound good pony" he retorted sarcastically
 
"I don't have time for this." said Anon with a tone of frustration
 
"Leave me alone , I WILL pass through whether you let me or not."
 
>the three dragons look at each other begin to laugh amongst themselves
 
"So be it" he said as he readied himself to attack"
 
>his horn begins to light up with magic
 
>the dragons upon realising Anon was serious took a defensive stance
 
"Last chance."
 
"Give us your best shot! Horsey!" the dragon sneered
 
>anon puts on a face of wonder and shock and looks into the sky behind the dragons "look what's that in the sky"
 
> the dragons fall for the trick and look behind them in stupidity "what is it!?"
 
>Anon fires a spell at one of the dragons , knocking him into a wall with concussive force
 
>Anon takes flight and races away having taken the element of surprise
 
He weaves in and out of slumbering dragons
 
He hears a enraged shout behind him "GET THAT PONY TWERP!"
 
>an adult dragon sets his gaze upon Anon and readies a fireball toward him
 
>Anon quickly changes course and flys into a nearby gap with great precision
 
Anon:" Haha! See you later you dumbass dragons! I have no idea why I was scared of them in the first place, they're just wimps. Nothing compared to my magic. Oh If only Luna could see me now haha, that would be great. She'd comment sarcastically on the sub par skills of my flying and then I'd just race her and prove her wrong and or crash in the end"
 
>Anon, not looking where he's going, ends up crashing into a mountain and plummeting into the Soft snow that still laid there since last night
 
Anon:" At least I got the crashing part right."
 
>Anon continued to walk instead for a while
 
>Hours pass as the day is turning to night again and the beautiful anniversary moon rises again
 
Anon:" Now this is just starting to hurt. The more time I spend away from her, the more I doubt myself and my own abilities. I never really had to do anything before. My courage and strength are almost non existent without her. I love the beautiful moon and it still gives me some confidence and it reminds me why I must push on, but still, being without her gives me a sense of being lost. She and I have been together for so long that I just doubt myself and all my abilities"
 
>Anon proceeds to walk as in the distance he sees shelter, an old castle laying in ruins
 
Anon:" Oh my god, Shelter! Finally! I've been walking for far too long"
 
>Anon enters the castle that lays in ruin and feels strange
 
Anon:" It feels like, Luna is here to, but thats impossible!"
 
>Anon begins to curiously wander around the castle searching for the source of the illuminating feeling and presence of Luna in his heart
 
 
 
>Luna keeps pushing through the hard snow, wishing she could turn back and go back to the village
 
Luna:" This storm is so heavy, using my magic is merely fatiguing me quicker. I must push on though! For Equestria! For Anon! For Love!"
 
>Luna starts to freeze in the cold
 
Luna:" I must keep going, I can't let Anon down. I can't let myself down. If only Anon were here, he could use his magic to give me confidence. I don't know if I can make it. Is there even another village out here? I hope I can make it"
 
>Hours pass
 
>The cold bitter day turns into a freezing Night as Luna sees the moon she made on her anniversary.
 
Luna:" Oh celestia, I miss you to. Thank you for reminding me why I must pursue this quest."
 
>Luna gains new confidence after seeing her moon and keeps pushing on and sees an old abandoned castle in the distance
 
Luna:" My lord! There's a castle here! I can finally warm up and stay out of the snow. Ah the snow, it truly is beautiful though. Its unfortunate that it is so harmful to me. I need to keep good health because I still have a long way to go."
 
>Luna arrives at the castle but discovers that it is not entirely abandoned, candles light up the empty halls, Paintings decorate the walls, tapestries and carpets add to the atmosphere
 
Luna:" This reminds me of my old castle in the EverFree Forest. I hope someone is here so I can at least have a conversation and ask them if I may stay here. This castle does lie in ruins, but it still seems inhabited."
 
>Luna goes further into the castle and starts speaking loudly
 
Luna:" Hello? Is anypony here? I seek help! I am freezing to death and I need some place to stay for the night and day. I am also very hungry as it has been a day since my last meal! Please! Anypony!"
 
>Luna gets no response and she continues to wander through the castle anyways hoping to find the residents
 
>Luna starts getting angry
 
Luna:" WHERE ARE YOU?! I, PRINCESS LUNA, DEMAND THAT THE RESIDENTS OF THIS CASTLE COME TO ME AT ONCE OR I WILL DO MY WORST TO YOU!"
 
>The resident of this castle, an old pony but not too old comes out of her room
 
Resident:" My sincerest apologies Princess Luna, I was asleep. I will gladly accomodate you in this castle, if you wish."
 
Luna:" I apologize for my anger, I have been through a long and rough day."
 
Resident:" Fret not Princess, I completely understand."
 
Luna:" Resident, may I ask your name?"
 
Lily:" My name is Lily, your highness"
 
Luna:" Tis is a nice name. Pray tell, Lily, what exactly are you doing in this abandoned castle from the ancient times when I was a mere filly?"
 
Lily:" I have been a resident of this castle since my birth, my parents were High class citizens of Equestria, but they did not like any of the cities or towns of Equestria, so they ventured off and they found this abandoned castle, where they started to make a colony, but the weather was too harsh for the other ponies leaving this as the only thing that remains here. I was born and raised in this castle, Luna. News rarely gets out here but when it does it usually is big, like what you did to stop Chrysalis from taking over Equestria."
 
Luna:" Well that surely is interesting. Do you know any of the background history to the castle itself? I remember reading about it's existence long ago as a filly, but I do not know any of the history behind it. Would you mind telling me?"
 
Lily:" Princess, I am afraid I don't remember anything about this place, its been too many years. All the information you're looking for probably passed with My Mother and Father. You're more than welcome to look around the castle if you'd like."
 
Luna:" Thank you Lily for your hospitality, I will start looking around your castle, I seek some other information that I'm sure this Castle has. I'm sure this has a library somewhere around here, every castle has to. Maybe the history of this castle can help me with the future. Oh and Lily, one more question, why are you out here all alone?"
 
Lily:" Well I know this castle has some sort of Library, I remember going there as a filly, I believe it was underground though and I'm not quite sure how that could help you. And the reason I am still out here is, I've been waiting for someone. For many years now, we promised we'd meet here, and He never came back."
 
Luna:" I'm sorry to hear that Lily. Now I want you to rest, I'll try to find the library and I'll be gone before you know it."
 
Lily:" You're more than welcome to stay longer if you'd like"
 
Luna:" No thank you, I have a very important quest I must continue, This was merely the first shelter I had seen for miles, so I stopped here before the bitter cold froze me solid."
 
Lily:" Oh.. alright, well enjoy your stay Princess Luna, you're the first company I've had in years and probably will be the last."
 
Luna:" Good night to you, Lily."
 
Lily:" And to you as well Princess Luna"
 
>Luna starts searching all around the abandoned castle for trap doors, puzzles, secret passages, anything that could lead to a library for if this castle was anything like her old one, it would be filled with such means of protection
 
Luna:" Ah ha! Behind the fireplace! It has to be there!"
 
>Luna puts out the fire and turns the two torches upside down and then a staircase reveals itself below her
 
Luna:" Yes! A library! Somewhere were I can find solitude!"
 
>Before entering the library, Luna leaves a note on the fire place begging Lily not to touch it in case she wakes up and finds it like this
 
Luna:" I do hope these stairs are not too long, I am beginning to grow tired from all my travels."
 
>Luna walks down the long and dark stair case lighting up the candles as she walks along trying to provide more light
 
Luna:"Thats much better! Now I can actually see! My, what an ancient yet beautiful place this is, This has to hold all the answers I seek."
 
>Luna enters the library and notices a hole in the ceiling where the moonlight shines through
 
>She walks closer to investigate and finds the remains of a Colt
 
Luna:" This must have been the pony Lily was waiting all these years for... I must further investigate to confirm"
 
>She investigates the remains and finds a picture of the Colt when he was alive and well and she finds a journal of his
 
Henry:" I've almost arrived at the castle to see Lily, it's been so long since I've seen her, I promised I would see her here again. I can't wait to see her."
 
>Luna begins to cry
 
Luna:" This is simply tragic... I can't help but think about this happening to Anon... If it did, I would simply be heartbroken... I must tell Lily this in the morning, regardless of how she might feel about this. It is better to know what happened rather than be waiting for all eternity for a pony that is never coming because he already passed on."
 
>Luna begins to look through all the books searching for the castle's history, for maybe if she finds out what purpose this castle was built, she could find its previous residents as well and perhaps some information on the Elements of Passion
 
Luna:" Ah Yes! Here it is! A History of SouthWood Castle! At last some information!"
 
>Luna begins to delve into the book reading every piece of information she can
 
>Hours pass and the sun begins to rise
 
 
Luna:" So the Castle was founded by Lord Vernon and a similar castle was founded by Lady Vernon in the north. They were made when the Vernons were looking for the Elements of Passion and they wanted to create a rest stop for anyone who looked for them. The two castles were known as the lover's castles. If two lovers were to be in a castle at the same time, they would sense each others presence and thus that presence and spirit gave them motivation to keep venturing on to the Elements Of Passion.
 
That truly is interesting, as I heard of Lord Vernon and Lady Vernon, but I have never known exactly what they accomplished. This Castle was made long before I was even a filly, I was wrong about the age of this place. I knew about it as a filly, but I had not known what it was or what its purpose was.
 
Now, Many many many years later, I know about the Castle and what its purpose was. I just wish Anon was here or in the other castle so I can sense his presence and It would almost be like we are traveling together. I miss Anon so much. I am going to request that I can stay in the castle one more night, I do not want to be a bother to Lily."
 
>Luna exits the library and finds Lily holding a picture of Henry sobbing over it in the dining hall
 
Luna:" Lily... I have some bad news..."
 
>Lily wipes her tears and responds to Luna
 
Lily:" What is it Princess Luna? I hope it isn't anything too bad."
 
Luna:" Well.... I'll have to stay here one more night... If you don't mind."
 
Lily:" Thats your bad news? Haha! I don't mind at all Princess Luna! In fact I enjoy your company!"
 
Luna:" Thats not the bad news... I just don't know how to say it... So here... Have these."
 
>Luna gives Lily the journal of Henry and his picture
 
Lily:" How did you get this?"
 
Lily:" Princess Luna... How did you get this? Please... answer me..."
 
Luna:" When I found the library last night, I did find everything I was hoping to find, but I also found something else. I found Henry"
 
Lily:" You mean... Henry is..."
 
Luna:" No longer with us, I am afraid. I really didn't want to tell you this, but I couldn't let you spend the rest of your life waiting for someone who isn't coming. Well rather wait for someone who has been here for quite a long time. Lily, How long have you been waiting for Henry?"
 
>Lily is too busy crying and can not answer Luna
 
Luna:" Listen, Lily, I know it is difficult for you. I had gone through a similar thing with my Prince. He was sent back to whence he came and I thought I would never see him again. Nightmare Moon took over me because I allowed her to manipulate me. Now I know you wont become some dark creature of the night who wants nothing but to rule the world, but when Anon had fought all his way to come back to me, That meant more to me than anything. I never thought I would see Anon again. I thought it was over. I know I can never feel like you feel, but I have felt things similar if not worse. I have been banished for 1000 years to the moon and I had to fight myself just to live on. My life was horrible for those 1000 years. I missed my sister, and all my friends. Now I had to move on and make new friends. I know this has to be hard, that you spent so much time waiting in vain, but come back to Equestria with me when I complete my quest, and we can start you a new life. What do you say?"
 
Lily *still sobbing* :" Alright Princess Luna... and by the way... I have been waiting for Henry for 15 long, cold, and lonely years. Who knows how long he was actually here for... I just can't believe it... the Pony I waited so long for was here all along, rotting as a carcass."
 
Luna:" I will go to sleep now Lily, please, don't do anything foolish. I need my rest and I promise I will help you in any way I can."
 
Lily:" I Promise I wont try anything Princess Luna..."
 
>Lily turns her back and begins to sob as Luna walks away slowly to what she assumes is the guest room and lays down in bed
 
>Luna begins to cry as she thinks of Anon and what would happen if something bad would happen to him
 
>Luna falls asleep and begins having a horrible nightmare about the demise of her precious Anon
 
>Dream Sequence enter
 
Luna:" Anon! Wait! Please! You're going to meet your demise if you continue! Just turn back now and leave ! Come back Home!"
 
>Anon arrogantly continues
 
Anon:" Luna, we need to get this done, for each other. If we don't then we wasted several days simply walking apart. I do not want to spend time in vain Luna."
 
>Luna then sees Nightmare Creatures rise up and attack Anon
 
>Anon fights valiantly and with courage in pursuit of regaining his paradise
 
>Anon fights in vain as he loses and is vaporized by the over whelming darkness
 
Luna:" Anon! No! This can't be! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT CAN'T BE! ANON PLEASE! PLEASE TELL ME YOU'RE SOMEWHERE HERE! I WONT ACCEPT IT! I CAN'T!"
 
>Luna soon wakes up from the horrible nightmare screaming and crying Anon's name over and over with a river of tears flowing down her face and onto the bed sheets
 
 
 
Anon:" Luna! Are you here?! If you are I'll be glad to see you but still, why are you not searching for the element of passion?"
 
>Anon gets no response and accidentally activates a trap door leading to a dark and empty chamber filled with skeletons of those who died here long ago
 
Anon:" Holy shit, this better not be happening, I can't be stuck here forever!"
 
>Meanwhile at the Southwood Castle Luna is back in the library when she feels Anon's presence and attempts to make contact with him
 
Luna:" I do hope this works, I bet Anon could use some re assurance right now as he must be feeling my presence but has to be lost somewhere in the other castle."
 
>Luna preforms a spell to transmit her consciousness over to Anon
 
>Meanwhile Anon is still trapped inside the dark room accepting defeat almost immediately
 
Anon:" Man this is useless, there's no way out. I know I'm supposed to incite courage and boost morale, but how can I do that for others if I can't do it for myself?"
 
>Then Luna's voice can be heard
 
Luna:" Anon! Anon! Where are you?! I know you're here! I'm in the SouthWood Castle and you're in the NorthWood castle! The legend had it that when two lovers enter the castles, they can feel each other's presence and I'm sure you felt mine when you entered!"
 
Anon:" Holy shit! Luna!!! Oh my god I need to get out of here!" He says to himself
 
>Anon cries out to Luna
 
Anon:" Luna! I'm trapped in some dark room! There's nothing but remains of the deceased in here! I need to get out! Please Help!"
 
>Luna gets extremely worried about Anon
 
Luna:" Just try using a spell to break the walls! Any spell!"
 
>Anon tries with all his might to try to break the walls but his effort is in vain and he remains trapped
 
Luna:" I didn't want to have to do this but I am doing it now"
 
Anon:" What do you mean Luna? What are you doing? "
 
>No response
 
"Luna?"
 
>No response again
 
"Luna?!"
 
>No response three times in a row and Anon gets really worried
 
"LUNAA!"
 
>Luna summons discord to the NorthWood Castle and begs him to mess with Anon.
 
Luna:" Discord, I know thou aren't the most reliable ally, but please do it for me, or of course there is the option of turning you back into stone."
 
Discord:" So you are willfully letting me mess with Anon at my leisure? This is going to be fun!"
 
Luna:" Only until it produces the result I want, be sure to get him extra angry"
 
Discord:" Your wish Is my command princess" He says with a smirk
 
>Discord teleports into the dark room with Anon
 
>*Snap*
 
Anon:" Oh lord no, not him, not now"
 
 
Discord:" Helloooooo there old chum, how have you been Anon? I love what you've done with the place, bones and other remains everywhere! So enchanting I must say. Though a little more masochism and insanity would suit the place for the better"
 
Anon:" Discord, why are you even here? Can't you tell I'm busy?"
 
Discord:" Busy sulking and accepting your doom? Oh what fun that must be."
 
Anon:" God damn it Discord, shut up"
 
Discord:" Who is this "God" you speak of, I know what it means for one to BE a god but who is this one specific "God" Of what you speak? Is he one of your imaginary friends? Is it one of those ridiculous concepts you and your fellow humans came up with? Oh my this is hilarious!"
 
Anon:" Fuck you Discord get out of my fucking face before I blast your ass TO THE NEXT FUCKING DIMENSION!"
 
Discord:" Blast me if you Caaan!"
 
Anon:" Don't tempt me Discord! I can and will do it!"
 
Discord:" Oh I am SO afraid! What, Is your "God" friend going to blast me to?"
 
Anon:" THATS FUCKING IT DISCORD! YOU'RE DONE! SAY YOUR PRAYERS!"
 
Discord:" Hm, I would If I knew what a prayer is. You and your humans are so ridiculous I swear."
 
>Anon fires his laser At Discord
 
>Discord Dodges and the laser smashes a hole in the wall
 
Luna:" Discord! You can stop now! The desired results have been accomplished!" *her hologram esque projection faces Anon* "Anon! So great to see you again at last!"
 
Anon:" Haha nice job getting me angry Luna, clever plot as usual. I wish I could hold your hoof but of course this is a mere projection correct?"
 
Luna:" Correct, but at least I'm in your heart!" She says with a smile
 
>Hours pass and the two spend some much needed time together
 
Luna:" Anon, you know I met a very nice pony in this Castle yesterday who was waiting all alone in these ruins for 15 long years only to find out her special somepony whom she was waiting for, died when falling into a trap that lead to the library here."
 
Anon:" Holy shit, 15 years all alone in this cold and hostile environment? Thats just terrible. I couldn't even imagine if that were me waiting for you and you had met your demise or vice versa."
 
Luna:" Tis truly a tragic and heart breaking story. You know I was thinking about your demise yesterday because of it. My imagination grew out of proportion and ran wild when I couldn't get to see your dream. I had simply couldn't handle myself. I also had a horrible nightmare where I had to watch your painful demise and I had woken up with tears all over my face and my bed sheets."
 
Anon:" Oh Luna, I'm so sorry. You know, I think about you a lot and being on this journey without you was pretty hard because everything I saw had reminded me of you and things you and I could be doing. Especially the anniversary moon. It is truly beautiful, but not as much as you of course. I do have to thank Celestia for doing this for us, keeping that moon raised instills some confidence and extra will power into me.
 
But last time I saw it, it did the opposite because it made me miss you more. I really had missed you with all my soul and it was hard to accept that you weren't here. I know I am supposed to spread courage and boost morale, but its also hard to keep a positive morale without you Luna. I need you Luna, because if it wasn't for you or a memory we share, I would have given up all hope and let myself perish out here long ago."
 
Luna:" Ah Anon, still the flatterer I had met about 2 months ago. You're ever so charming Anon. And I know It is rough without me because It is rough for me without you."
 
Luna:" Anon, if it weren't for you, I would be a whole different pony. And I wouldn't have made it far on this quest because I still want to go back home. A question always pops into my mind, Do we really need the Elements of Passion to re-ignite our love? It always makes me want to give up and just turn back. But then I remember that you are on this journey to right here in my necklace and I am forever grateful for it for it really has helped me over come some obstacles. Anon, I will do anything for you, don't you ever forget it."
 
Anon:" I love you Princess Luna. Don't ever forget that. I know this journey will be rough, but from what you told me, our spirits will resonate inside each other until we finally get to the Elements of Passion. I can't wait to get them and come home at last. I not only miss you my fair Princess, I miss our friends and our sister Celestia. I miss the castle and all of Equestria. "
 
>The sun now rises and the Anniversary moon falls
 
Luna:" Would you like to sleep together again Anon? One more time, even if in spirit, before we part can we please just sleep and dream together?"
 
Anon:" That sounds amazing Luna, Lets do it"
 
>Anon and Luna's projection walk towards the bedroom where the hole in the roof acts as a wonderful skylight allowing the sunlight in
 
>The two sleep together for the first time in a few nights and start to dream
 
>They begin dreaming about their wedding night at The Grand Galloping Gala and how wonderful it was to finally be married.
 
>They enjoyed each other as long as they could until they had woken up
 
Luna:" I sense that my body is about to wake up from my slumber, I suppose this is goodbye Anon, I will be seeing you when we get the Elements of Passion, I love you my sweet prince."
 
>Luna gives Anon a kiss goodbye and Anon does the same although that spark still isn't there yet, however it does re-ignite their morale
 
>Luna and Anon wake up and they start to go their separate ways
 
Anon:"Goodbye"
 
>Anon leaves the castle with a renewed confidence
 
> he ventured onward into the icy mountains
 
>It was too stormy and much to dangerous for anon to attempt to fly in this weather,
 
>so he continued on foot for hours
 
Anon eventually comes to a frozen lake and is faced with a dilemma:
 
it is much too stormy to use his wings to get across and it might break under his weight. But if he didn't get across he would eventually freeze to death...
 
 
 
Luna:" Good bye Anon... I will miss you. Now I must help Lily"
 
>Time passes as Lily and Luna converse
 
Lily:" Oh princess Luna, thank you for your kindness, I really appreciate that you will come back for me when your love is restored, I wish you the best of luck! Please never lose sight of your goal!"
 
Luna:" I promise Lily, I will do my best not to. I will do anything for my Prince as he has gone through great lengths to assist me. I miss him already and I saw him last night in a most wonderful dream. I must be departing now Lily. Just don't look in the library or else you'll see what you should never see."
 
Lily:" I promise to stay out! Farewell Princess Luna!"
 
Luna:" Farewell Lily! Stay strong!"
 
>Luna steps out of the castle but still feels Anon's spirit resonating inside of her giving her the confidence to fly through the air and get to the south pole as fast as she can
 
>Mid way she comes across a huge mountain range which would be too tall for her to fly over so she instead lands on the ground and follows the passage that leads inbetween and through them
 
Luna:" I do hope that these mountains will not be of trouble, I do not want to delay my goal. I miss Anon, I miss Celestia, I miss Twilight, I miss all of them and all of Equestra. The sooner I get there the better."
 
>Luna walks around and through the mountains but as there are so many of them, she is only about half way through
 
Luna:" Ah, its night time already, I love the moon that Celestia raises, I can't wait to raise my moon again when I'm back, I do wonder what Equestria is like right now without me"
 
>Luna keeps pushing forward until she notices some poor pony crying for help and she does not ignore her plea
 
Luna:" Fair Pony! Where are you? I am willing to help but please notify me of your location!"
 
Pony:" Over here!"
 
>The voice sounded distant and deep down a cave Luna sees to the left
 
>Luna runs after the voice
 
Luna:" I am coming to the rescue! "
 
>Meanwhile, Back in Equestria
 
>Celestia is talking to princess Twilight
 
Celestia:" Twilight, did you know it's been 4 long days since Anon and Luna have left the kingdom in pursuit of the Elements of Passion? "
 
Twilight:" I can't say I have Princess Celestia, it feels even longer. I miss seeing them every night in the castle always spending time together and doing all the royal duties together. They were such a lively couple and I truly miss them. I do hope they come back soon. "
 
Celestia:" Twilight, I just want to thank you for accompanying me here tonight. It's been so lonely here without my sister or my brother. Doing both the royal duties of the day and night are quite the pain and really drain my energy. I do hope that those two accomplish everything they need to. You know, I haven't had to raise and lower the moon like this since you first moved to Pony Ville. My night is truly nothing compared to the beauty and depth that Luna's night holds.
 
Twilight:"Celestia, I'm sorry about all of this. I feel bad for you that you have to be the one who does this all. I am always here to help. No thanks are necessary, it's just what friends do right? "
 
Celestia laughs and says:" Yep! That truly is what friends do Twilight. I just hope that those two at least get together by their Two Month Anniversary. It really would be a shame if they spent it without the spark of love."
 
Twilight:"I agree. I have never seen any couple happier together than Anon and Luna, not even My brother and Cadence. "
 
Celestia:"Yes those two's love for each other was the strongest Equestria ever knew. It was even beyond Cadence's repair. I can only imagine how Cadence felt when she found out she couldn't help. Twilight, please take over for me just until the time comes for me to raise the sun, I am exhausted"
 
Twilight:"Of course Celestia! Sleep well! "
 
>Celestia goes to sleep with a worried mind thinking about her brother and sister
 
Twilight:" I do hope I can handle the royal duties while Celestia is asleep, I rarely have ever had to do something like this before."
 
>Twilight looks out the window and we now transition to Luna
 
>Luna illuminates the whole dark cave system with a spell as she frantically races over to a pony who needs her help
 
Luna:" Where Are you? You must speak in order for me to find you! Thou's life depends on it!"
 
Pony:" Over here! I'm hanging onto a ledge at the south end of the cave! Please Hurry!"
 
>Luna speeds through the cave in order to save the pony who needs her help
 
>Luna finds the pony and gives her her hoof
 
>As the pony reaches for it she slips and starts plummeting down the deep down hole
 
>Luna quickly dives down into the hole to save the pony and uses her magic to levitate her and flies back up to the ledge
 
Luna:" Are thou alright?"
 
>The pony can not speak as she is terrified of Luna for her resemblance to Nightmare Moon
 
Luna:" Please, identify yourself, I would like to know your name"
 
>The pony tries to say something but stutters in fear
 
Luna:" Come on now, Don't be shy. I won't hurt you, I promise."
 
Pony:" Rrr-R--R-ose"
 
Luna:" Rose?"
 
Rose:" Yyyy-y-es thats my name"
 
Luna:" Rose why are you so afraid? Does this cave bother you?"
 
Rose:" It... It..."
 
Luna:" Please tell me Rose."
 
Rose:"It's you. You're Nightmare Moon aren't you? The pony who vows to bring eternal night?"
 
Luna:" No! That isn't me anymore. It hasn't been me for almost 2 years now. I am surprised that you think I would still want to do such a thing, I have other things that are of my concern. Please Rose, Call me Luna."
 
Rose:" A-alright Luna. It is a very beautiful name for such a beautiful, yet frightening, Pony"
 
Luna:" Thank you Rose, your name is quite beautiful as well. Tis a pleasure meet thou."
 
Rose:" It is a pleasure to meet you to, Princess Luna"
 
Luna:" I'm truly sorry I frightened you, Please forgive me."
 
Rose:" It's quite alright, I'm sorry for being ignorant"
 
Luna:" Don't worry about it, you aren't the first pony and you certainly wont be the last."
 
>About an hour of small talk passes by until Luna asks the question on her mind
 
Luna:" Rose, what exactly were you doing here in this cave?"
 
Rose:" Oh my , that is quite a long story. Well you see, I knew a pony named Jack, I had loved him very much and he loved me. But I was a higher class citizen from Northern Canterlot and he was a mere peasant in the southern colony. That didn't bother me though. However it bothered my family and once they found out that he and I spent time with each other, They were out raged and forbade me to ever see him again. Instead they found for me a rich business man Cal. He was snooty and rude and arrogant. I suppose that is what greed does to ponies, but I digress.
 
Eventually I ran away from my family in Canterlot, actually it was only about a month ago and I met Jack and we enjoyed our time together but Cal found me. Cal had banished Jack to these mountains here in the south and I told him I would find him again. I had come to these mountains a week or so ago and I have heard Jack's voice echo in these caves but I am yet to find him. I do hope he is alright."
 
Luna:" So essentially, you're here for your love"
 
Rose:" Yes, yes I am. I can not wait to find Jack and when I do, I will never let him go."
 
Luna:" That is truly romantic, I think. Forgive me Rose for I am journeying on a quest for love as well. Instead it is to gain back the feeling of love itself that I lost while protecting the Kingdom from Queen Chrysalis, The Queen of the Changelings. I do not feel love but I still know what it is. And that sounds like true love to me Rose. Good Luck to you on finding Jack."
 
 
 
>Anon stands in front of the frozen lake weighing up his options
 
"Too stormy to fly over it, only thing to do is try to be as gentle as possible"
 
>Anon tests the ice with his hoove, letting the weight transfer , he does this several times to make sure , and walks carefully and slowly to avoid slipping on the icy surface
 
"Just take it slow no rush"
 
>Anon was halfway across the frozen lake now , slowly edging his way across
 
Suddenly anon heard the faintest of cracks underneath his hoove
 
He looked and saw the tiny cracks snaking their way across the surface of the ice
 
Anon had to think quickly or he would fall in when the ice broke
 
>he let out a shout of pure frustration and fear for his current situation
 
suddenly he had an idea , he readied his wings and began flapping them not in order to fly but propel him along the surface of the ice like a skate.
 
He pushed off with great speed from where he stood the ice behind him collapsing at the very moment he applied the pressure from his wings
 
>the ice lake is collapsing now with anon only just outrunning the sinking ice
 
"COME ON, JUST A LITTLE FURTHER!!!" He exclaimed as he saw the lakeside and accelerating faster
 
>anon feels his hind hoove bump on something
 
He took a quick glance behind him , the ice was almost completely gone he was barely ahead of the collapse
 
>the ice finally beats Anon's speed and is about to force him to fall in the water
 
"Noononono!!' He cried and extended his wings in a desperate attempt to escape the freezing waters below him
 
>he is now airborne , but the stormy winds soon put him off balance and just as he reaches the lakeshore he is pushed to the ground with great force landing directly on one of his legs , he hears a distinctive "SNAP" and a deep seething pain shoots up his broken limb
 
>He curses out in pain "FUCK. AHGHH" his shouts resonating in the cold air and wind.
 
 
 
Rose:" Thank you Princess Luna. Good luck to you as well! I do hope that you can find the spark you need in your love!"
 
Luna:" I will be willing to help you find Jack if you haven't done so by the time I finish my quest, If you want."
 
Rose:" That would be lovely! Thank you Luna!"
 
Luna:" Farewell Rose! I am off on my journey again! Stay well!"
 
Rose:" Thank you Luna! Farewell!"
 
>Luna leaves the cave and goes back out to the icy mountains
 
>After Luna leaves the cave Rose goes back to the ledge and teleports down
 
>In the bottom of that pit lies two pony skeletons one with a fancy dress and the other with overalls
 
>The two skeletons seem to be holding hooves
 
Rose:" I told you I'd never let go Jack..."
 
>Luna continues to walk through the mountains as the day turns into night once more
 
Luna:" My word I am getting pretty tired, I need to rest"
 
>Luna takes refuge in a cave right past the mountains as she sees the snow begin to fall again
 
>The cold snow makes her feel more alone on her quest
 
Luna:" I know I have to do this for Anon, but can I really do this? Do I have the strength and courage? I feel anon's spirit still resonating within me but its getting weaker by the moment. "
 
>A tired Luna shuts her eyes and lays in depression in a dark cave all by herself in the middle of nowhere feeling the cold temperatures start to freeze her.
 
Luna:" I can't go on anymore. This is the end, I just don't know what to do... I feel so hopeless and alone... Goodbye Anon... forever..."
 
>Luna accepts defeat and allows herself to be frozen to death
 
>Nightmare Moon is enraged by such behavior by Luna and appears in front of her
 
NMM:" WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?! DO YOU FORGET YOUR TASK? YOUR MISSION? THE REASON WHY YOU'RE ALL THE WAY OUT HERE IN THIS FORSAKEN COLD? THERE'S TWO OF US IN HERE! THIS IS ALL FOR ANON! YOU LOVED ANON! I EVEN FELT LOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME FOR HIM! AND NOW THAT YOU'RE SO CLOSE, YOU'RE GOING TO LET YOURSELF PERISH?"
 
Luna:".... Nightmare Moon... I just can't find it in me to keep on going..."
 
NMM:" HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ABOUT THE PENDANT ANON GAVE YOU? FOR PETE'S SAKE! A PART OF HIM IS INSIDE THE ELEMENT OF SHINING DARKNESS! USE THE ELEMENT YOU FOOL! THERE WAS A GOOD REASON WHY HE GAVE IT TO YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE!"
 
Luna:" Alright Nightmare moon... I'll try to activate it..."
 
>Luna looks deep inside her heart and finds the right spell with enough courage to cast it at last
 
>The spell worked And Luna has gotten a morale boost, just as if Anon was there
 
Luna:" Nightmare Moon, Thank you for helping me, You have changed a lot since you were created by the nightmares. Let's continue! For Anon!"
 
NMM:" For Anon."
 
 
 
>Anon painfully brings himself to stand, he can barely walk , with his foreleg broken, dragging it along the snow limply, the pain still shooting up his leg, he groans,
 
> but with determination to not give up, he pushes through the pain
 
>Anon looks around , the storm appears to be dying down
 
>he looks around to get his bearings and see something further down the lakeshore...it appears to moving
 
>he try's to focus on what or who it is...more shapes come into view...they appear to heading toward him...Anon feels uneasy at this and decides to move away whilst looking over his shoulder
 
"Hmmm..." He mutters as he squints his vision
 
>the shapes have a animal like quality but look jagged...like they were wooden dogs...no bigger
 
"Wolves." Anon whispered to himself , the danger of the situation dawning on him
 
He couldn't fly away as his broken leg was in too much pain to allow him to spring upwards , he needed a height to jump from.
 
Anon scans his surroundings frantically for any raised hill or high ground , he spots a cliff with a soft hill not too far away in the opposite direction of the "wolves"
 
>he makes a beeline for it , limping painfully but moving as fast as he can in his condition
 
>a loud but distant collective howl is heard in the distance
 
"Shit. No don't be so close yet" anon snapped his back to check on their progress
 
They were closer. Much closer . Anons heartbeat quickened in terror. They had most surely caught his scent or spotted him
 
>he brutally ups his pace much to the great pain of his leg, the spikes of pain ever worsening
 
>He silently winces in pain so not to further alert his hunters
 
He has reached the base of the small hill
 
"Close. just a small climb , you can do it"
 
>Anon can hear the sound of of the wolves claws running through the snow
 
>Anon can hear the sound of of the wolves claws running through the snow as he reached the crest of the hill
 
>he readies his wings to fly and pushes with all his might to launch ,with a almost superhuman effort he maintains his form and balanced despite his intense pain
 
>He let's out a howl of pain, tears in his eyes from it , but he is filled with relief as he is finally in the air
 
> he looks below to the wolves and is disturbed by what he sees , bright green glowing eyes , splintery wooden body and legs
 
"Too damned close." He says with a sigh of relief
 
He climbs higher into the sky continuing on his journey, concerned with his injury, however he looks for any nearby settlements
 
 
 
>Luna continues her quest until the snow stops and the sun finally rises
 
>She manages to find a small log cabin and she knocks on the door before she makes an attempt to enter in case it is inhabited
 
>The door opens
 
> There is an old couple who greet Luna as she steps into the cottage
 
Luna:" Hello there villagers, I am princess Luna."
 
Both:" Welcome! We are so happy to have company after all these years!"
 
Julia:" Hello princess, my name is Julia"
 
Herb:" And my name is Herb Princess Luna."
 
Luna:" I'm surprised to see this cabin has residents! It is a pleasure to meet you though, Herb and Julia. Anyways, I am sorry to bother you but I merely need a place to sleep. I have been on a very long quest to get an Element that has been long forgotten about. Would you mind if I sleep here in your cabin?"
 
Julia:" Of course not! You are more than welcome to! And besides, you're royalty, we can't let a member of the Royal Family be treated this way!"
 
>Luna Sleeps on their bed as she dreams about Anon and meeting him again
 
>Meanwhile Herb and Julia plot in secrecy a way to stop Luna from gaining the elements.
 
>They morph out of their form and reveal themselves to be changelings
 
Changeling 1:" Queen Chrysalis will be most pleased to hear this! We finally have Luna again! We can get our revenge on her now!"
 
>Luna continues to sleep peacefully as the Changelings unfold their plan
 
>The changelings kidnap a deep sleeping Princess Luna and fly her back to their secret base that the Changelings made
 
C1:†We will get our revenge for what she did to our Queen! It is a shame we can only communicate with her every so often. But we must stay strong for her. Maybe we can reverse this banishment spell and send this pesky princess to banishment instead.â€
 
>All the other changelings cheer
 
>Meanwhile Luna is still dreaming
 
>Luna is dreaming about Anon and her having a wonderful time
 
>All of a sudden the dream turns into Nightmare as Anon and her were swarmed by a group of Rogue Changelings and they were ripped away from each other
 
Luna:†Anon! We can’t lose this! We need to keep fighting! “
 
Anon:†I know!â€
 
>Anon blasts off all the changelings surrounding him with a powerful magic spell
 
>Luna does the same as she run towards Anon
 
>That anon wasn’t the real one and she gets tricked and knocked out as she is dragged away from Anon
 
>Tears begin to slowly drip down Luna’s face as she wakes up to see changelings surrounding her
 
Luna:†What in the name of Equestria is going on here?!â€
 
C1:†Ah good you’re awake. You remember me, Herb right? Hahaha, I can’t believe you fell for that trick. What makes you think someone would actually be out this far and so close to the elements of passion?â€
 
Luna:†Curse you foul creatures! I will escape from here if it is the last thing I do!â€
 
C1:†Yeah no, no you’re not. We are going to torture you here with every means necessary as revenge for imprisoning our Queen! You will suffer here like you have never before.â€
 
>Luna attempts to use magic to escape but her magic is nullified by some dark force at work
 
Luna:†Damn you all. Why do you hate me so much? And why do you want to stop me from having the elements? If your queen was to return and I was madly in love with Anon like I used to be, wouldn’t she be stronger because of it? You fools have no clue what you’re doing.â€
 
C1:†Shut up prisoner!â€
 
>Changeling 1 hits her with a razor sharp whip and cuts her skin
 
>Luna begins to cry in the pain but still resists giving in to submission.
 
Luna:†No matter what you do to me, you will not break my spirit!â€
 
>Hours of NONSEXUAL NON KINKY old school torture ensue using things such as dark spells to cloud her mind and physical abuse.
 
>They use medieval weapons of all sorts to inflict damage to Luna
 
>Eventually Luna sees the moon rise and sees her and Anon on the moon again
 
>She struggles to free herself from her chains which are attached to the wall of her cell
 
>After about an hour, she gives up all hope.
 
Luna:" Oh Anon, I failed you, I was doing so well but in the end I failed you. I am so sorry We never got to see each other again."
 
>Then her element of Shining Darkness begins to glow brightly
 
>A manifestation of the part of Anon's heart appears in front of Luna
 
Luna:" Anon! Is that really you?! Is this a dream?!"
 
Anon:" Luna, I gave you this element for a reason. It held a deeper meaning than just being a present. It is a way to summon my subconscious to be here with you while the physical me goes ahead and does whatever he's doing. I am a part of this pendant Luna. I put myself in here for a great reason and that was to protect you from danger."
 
Luna:" Oh Anon, this is so wonderful, I am so happy you're here! At least in spirit! I missed you so much!"
 
Anon:" I missed you as well my Princess, but we must be quick if we are to get you out of here."
 
Luna:" Alright Anon, Free me and you can lead the way."
 
>Anon tries to free her but his magic will not work due to the same dark magic block
 
Anon:" Luna! I can't do it! There's some dark magic preventing me from destroying those chains!"
 
Luna:" Oh no! Here come some guards! Anon you have to run!"
 
>It was too late, the guard sees the spirit of Anon and comes antagonistically to hurt Luna again.
 
CGuard:" My my my, What do we have here, a bratty princess and her un-intelligent Prince. So great to have the Royal Couple here at the same time."
 
>The guard notices Anon is being projected from the Element of Shining darkness
 
CGuard:" So that's how you're doing it eh? Not for long!"
 
Luna:" Please NO!"
 
>The guard smashes the element into pieces and Luna is emotionally destroyed as Anon disappears
 
>Luna begins an outburst as she angrily and woefully struggles in her chains
 
>She begins crying as well, tears dripping from her face down to the ground creating a puddle quickly
 
>More torture ensues
 
>Before the guard could whip her, Nightmare Moon appears
 
Nightmare Moon:" BACK AWAY FOOL! I will NOT allow you to harm her! er me! You insolent vile being! You disgust me, destroying such a precious element, how dare you."
 
>The guard starts running away in an attempt to warn the other guards and changelings, but Nightmare Moon quickly silences him
 
Luna:" Nightmare Moon... How did you just... How did you..."
 
 
 
>Anon was flying at the time Luna contacted him through the pendant and was thoroughly disoriented and distraught when the changelings cut him off from her
 
Thoughts raced through his mind "where is she? How can I help her? I'm so far away..."
 
>his broken leg ,hours of flying and using the pendant link had taken their toll and drained him of his last remaining energy
 
>Anon feels his wings seize up in cramp and tiredness and begins a fast descent downwards
 
>Anon tries desperately to regain control but his wings refuse to work any longer. Only being able to glide weakly.
 
>he looks around and sees he's clear of the mountains and there is a small encampment up ahead , he proceeds to aim for it as he descends.
 
>gravity finally wins and Anon clumsily crash lands , fortunately the deep snow cushions his landing but the force of impact still leaves a noticeable crater
 
>he hears shouts in the distance and looks up to see a unicorn running towards him followed by other ponies further behind.
 
> the leading unicorn shouts something but anon cannot make out what he said in his current state
 
>He feels himself slipping out of consciousness and his last glimpse is the look of fear on the unicorns face and the ponies behind change to dark black after a green shimmer flashes over them
 
>Anon's vision fades to black just as the lone Unicorn casts a spell on him.
 
Nightmare Moon:" I am a manifestation of your negative emotions remember? You felt so much grief and rage at the same time it gave me great strength. Details are not important now. We must go!"
 
Luna:" But what about The Element of Shining Darkness? It still lays in pieces and I can't just let it go! It has a very special place in my heart, I can't part with it!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" I know Luna. I can't either. I have a spell that will be sure to fix it, just hold my hoof and we can fix it."
 
>Luna puts her hoof into Nightmare Moon's and the two preform a powerful magical spell restoring the beautiful pendant
 
>Luna becomes excited and ecstatic as she sees the element that was smashed reform piece by piece
 
Luna:" Yes! We fixed it! Yes!"
 
>Luna makes too much noise in her excitement and wakes the other guards up including the Changeling that captured her
 
Nightmare Moon:" Luna! Quickly! We must move! They know that something is wrong! I'll free you but you need to run! I will hold them back!"
 
>Luna nods her head in agreement as she puts on her pendant
 
>Nightmare Moon blasts the chains off of Luna
 
Nightmare Moon:" GO! RUN AS FAR AS YOU CAN LUNA! I WILL BE FINE! I'M JUST YOU AFTER ALL! IF YOU'RE ALRIGHT THEN I'M ALRIGHT!"
 
>Luna blasts a hole in the cell wall and runs outside to see her moon, giving her more confidence as she remembers why she needs to do all this and why she can't just run home
 
Luna:" I must get to safety! I must hide somewhere!"
 
>In the distance, Luna finds what seems to be a huge temple , laying in ruin due to the sands of time
 
Luna:" This has to be where the Element is! This has to be the South Pole Temple!"
 
>Luna quickly rushes inside and takes cover
 
>She watches in awe as Nightmare Moon blasts away changelings with ease
 
Nightmare Moon:" Is that all?! Come on, don't make this a waste of my time."
 
>Nightmare Moon continues to battle the changelings fending them off one by one while Luna stays hidden
 
Nightmare Moon: So that's the very best you fools could do eh? Pitiful whelps. You can't even lay a hoof on me. "
 
>Then all of a sudden a bigger changeling comes out of nowhere
 
>The tall, dark, muscular, and presumably evil Changeling attacks Nightmare Moon
 
>Nightmare Moon dodges the attack and blasts the beast with her own dark magic
 
Nightmare Moon:" Is that the best you can do? A mere straight forward charge? You and your changelings are so pitiful its quite humorous"
 
C1:" Not for long, You will see what I have in store for you!"
 
>C1 starts throwing dark fireballs at Nightmare Moon while also summoning more of his brethren
 
Luna:" Oh No! Nightmare Moon is going to be finished with that many changelings around! I must help her! I know shes just me and she can easily phase back into me but I still need to help!"
 
>Nightmare Moon unleashes a powerful explosion spell, knocking back all her enemies
 
Nightmare Moon:" Seriously, you can't do anything better than that? What a joke you are. I can't believe you actually thought you could get away with this."
 
C1:" GRRRR-AHHH! I WILL DEFEAT YOU!"
 
>He charges directly at Nightmare Moon who is distracted by the other changelings
 
Luna:" Nightmare Moon! Watch out!"
 
>Nightmare Moon doesn't hear Luna so Luna takes matter into her own hands
 
>Luna summons Anon's spirit yet again
 
Anon:" Luna, Is everything alright? Where are you?"
 
Luna:" At the South Pole temple but that is not important right now! I need your help defeating that one big changeling! He seems to be unscathed by all the dark attacks Nightmare Moon inflicted on him. Please help me charge up a light spell!"
 
Anon:" Right away Luna!"
 
>The two charge up a huge powerful spell of light not darkness
 
>C1 Hits Nightmare Moon with his flaming blitz and then charges up a huge ball of energy to destroy not only her but to vaporize everything in miles
 
 
 
>Anon wakes up to the sound of a crackling fire and the soft whistle of the wind outside
 
He scans his surrounding groggily , he appears to be in a cave , dimly lit by the fire.
 
>the sound of hoovesteps are coming his way, he cranes his neck up to see. He notices his leg is bandaged , this puts him at ease to whether the source of the footsteps are friend or foe
 
> A male Unicorn with a brown coat greets him
 
"Thank Celestia you're awake! , any other pony I fear wouldn't have survived your fall"
 
>Anon looks to him quizzically "e-excuse m-me" he stutters
 
"You took a nasty plummet back there your highness , just be glad I got to you before those...things" a look of disgust falls over him
 
>Anon head jumps up "what things!?"
 
>the unicorn simply says one word
 
"Changelings"
 
>Anon looked angered "damn! theyre after me too as well as Luna!"
 
"They took the entire camp just hours before by disguising themselves as travellers and then they took it by force when our scout spotted you.
 
They were were waiting for your arrival.
 
The others have been captured but with your help we can rescue them!"
 
>Anon raises an eyebrow
" I don't mean to be rude or pessimistic but I don't think I am in any ability to fight as of yet"
 
>he motions to his broken leg
 
>The unicorn chuckles "haha have no fear about that sir!" As he rummaged through a satchel of bottles and vials
 
>he pulls out a vial of liquid and tuts
"Alicorn magic , literal lifesaver, I'll need your help for this one though..." He says as he mixes potions together
 
 
 
>Luckily Anon's spirit and Luna manage to preform their light spell before C1 can use his spell to vaporize everyone
 
Anon:" SAY YOUR PRAYERS CHANGELING! THIS IS THE MOMENT YOU PERISH!"
 
>C1 turns around and sees the huge beam of white blue purple and black light heading straight towards him
 
C1:" What is that?! NO! YOU CANT DEFEAT ME!"
 
>The beam impacts and annihilates C1 and all the other Changelings
 
Anon:" Luna, I must rest now. You must to. Good night."
 
Luna:" Good night Anon, thank you for helping me, I really appreciate it!"
 
>Nightmare Moon flies over to Luna
 
Nightmare Moon:" I aswell thank thee Anon. You saved me, Just like you said you would should a danger like this ever arrive. Thank you as well Luna. I am glad that we are on good terms again. Come, let's go in the temple and find a place to rest."
 
Anon:" You're Welcome Nightmare Moon. Remember to me , you and Luna are one and the same because you both share the same heart. Good bye Luna and Nightmare Moon! I must go rest now as the Sun is starting to rise"
 
Luna:" Rest well Anon, you deserved it."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Indeed, a warrior such as yourself does need his rest. Now Luna, we must go inside and rest as well."
 
>Nightmare Moon merges back with Luna and they explore the Temple until they find an old sleeping chamber
 
Luna:" I can sleep here for the time being."
 
>Luna sleeps and begins dreaming
 
>Luna dreams of the good old times with Anon
 
>Anon's spirit joins her in her dreams as well
 
>She dreams of every good time she's shared with Anon
 
Luna:" Ah Anon, remember this? "
 
>The memory of the two relaxing together in the Canterlot Gardens comes forth
 
Anon:" Oh yeah, man its hard to believe that's been about 2 months ago, it feels like yesterday when we had just first got married."
 
>Luna and Anon then snuggle with each other during the dream
 
>Memories of nothing but spending time together with Anon scrolled by at Luna's leisure
 
>Memories of Playing Ludo, relaxing in the Ponyville park, the Wedding, and lastly the anniversary
 
>Luna and Anon's spirit within the Element Of Shining Darkness relive every single detail of their anniversary
 
Luna:" Anon, this necklace truly is beautiful, I really love it and I am still grateful for it! Without it, I wouldn't be able to talk to you."
 
Anon:" The necklace is beautiful, but I know one thing more beautiful."
 
Luna:" And What's that?"
 
Anon:" Why you of course Luna."
 
>Luna blushes redder than a rose
 
Luna:" Haha, after all this time, you're still the flatterer I knew and I loved. Anon, Don't ever change."
 
Anon:" As long as you don't Luna!" He says with a smile
 
>The dream finally ends and Luna wakes up feeling fully rested
 
>Luna stretches a little before rising and decides to go find some food in the forest, regardless of what could lurk in there as her last meal was in days and she is beginning to starve
 
Luna:" I do hope I find food somewhere, I can't make it much longer physically if I can't find food to give me strength and energy"
 
>Luna begins exploring the vast forest of evergreen trees all decorated in snow as she desperately searches for food in every corner she can
 
>Luna eventually finds a type of plant growing but she debates whether it is edible or if it is poison
 
Luna:" I must take the risk and just eat the plant. I can not go starving."
 
>Luna eats the plant and feels very strange
 
>She starts to hallucinate all kinds of things and starts seeing colors everywhere
 
 
 
"What's that" Anon questioned , looking towards the potion held by the unicorn magic
 
"This?" The Unicorn smiled "This will get you back on your hooves your highness! But I will need you to cast Alicorn magic on it, it is designed for alicorns alone , for if any other pony to attempt to drink it would surely kill them"
 
>the unicorn places the potion on the cave floor
 
"If you could ever so kindly you highness?"
 
>Anon tried to focus his energy reserves to create a magic blast towards the vial, he struggles but does barely manage to cast the spell, causing the potion to glow brighter
 
"Excellent! I think it worked" cheered the unicorn
 
>Anon exhausted , gasped for air, his condition seeming ever worse
 
>a district sound of buzzing can be heard outside the cave , as if a swarm of insects were close by
 
>The Unicorn rushed over to him
 
"Quickly! Drink it , before those blasted shapeshifters find us, time is of the essence!"
 
>Anons Finished the potion till the last drop
 
He began to feel strange, he felt a sensation in his chest as if it was about to explode how it relents and spreads over the rest of his body.
 
>His horn begins to glow of its own accord.
 
>the sensation reaches his legs and with a disturbing but nonetheless painless motion his broken legs snaps back into place and glows
 
>the light fades, Anon feels limitless energy flooding into him, he stands himself up.
 
There is a loud hiss outside the cave and the Unicorn snaps his head round to see, a look of horror is worn upon is face
 
"They found us..." He readys his horn to attack
 
>He looks back to Anon, the scars of his injuries no longer there to be seen and fully rejuvenated with an almost angelic glow
 
"By celestia...it worked..."
 
>Anon readys his stance for the fight as a group of changelings charge into the cave
 
 
 
Luna:" Oh my! There are so many wonderful colors everywhere! This is truly enchanting!"
 
>Luna begins to frolic around the patch of woods in hope to find more of the plant she had consumed
 
Luna:" I feel weightless! This is a whole new feeling to me!"
 
>Nightmare Moon starts getting really sick of Luna's shit and decides to manifest herself outside Luna
 
Nightmare Moon:" I need to find an antidote for Luna in haste. I can not stand this anymore."
 
>Nightmare Moon searches all around for a natural antidote to the red plant Luna consumed
 
>After much searching Nightmare Moon discovers the plant she needs to cure Luna
 
>She goes to Luna and sees her spinning in circles, chasing her own tail
 
>Nightmare Moon facehoof's and sighs and approaches Luna
 
Nightmare Moon:" Luna! What are you doing?! Do you not remember we have a task at hand? You must reach the element of passion remember?!"
 
Luna:" Woah! Nightmare Moon! When did you turn into a Rainbow Pony? Your fur is so cute! And your mane shimmers like a real rainbow!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" I have no idea what you're talking about. Now Luna, here take this. It will make you feel good and it will fill up your starving stomach."
 
Luna:" Maybeeee, But, you'd have to catch me first!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" What are you doing?! This isn't you Luna! You're acting as if you were 1 years old instead of the 1000+ That you really are!"
 
Luna:" Come on Nightmare Moon! Chase me! I want to have a race! Chase Me! Chase Me!"
 
>Luna starts speeding off deeper into the woods , irritating Nightmare Moon
 
Nightmare Moon:" I really do question why I don't just take over her entire body and just do as much chaos and destruction as I want. My eternal night would be unstoppable! But it is as if, I have morals now. Anon's display of love had touched me when he saved me. Am I turning into good?! I can't be! I'm a manifestation of Luna's darkness! I can't be good!"
 
>Nightmare Moon begins to chase after Luna
 
Luna:" You'll never catch me Nightmare Moon! I'm too fast for you!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Oh? You really think so? Watch this!"
 
>Nightmare Moon teleports right in front of Luna causing Luna to crash into her
 
Nightmare Moon:" Gotcha"
 
Luna:" Awwwww, but I was having Fun! I love all these colors! Please can we have more fun?"
 
Nightmare Moon:" NO! I've had enough FUN for one day. Now take this and eat it. This will help you feel better. Please Luna."
 
>Nightmare Moon puts on a fake sad face for Luna
 
>Luna starts to feel bad as she sees the sadness and disappointment in Nightmare Moon's disposition.
 
Luna:"Aww Alright. You win Nightmare Moon, give me the plant."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Thank you Luna. Here it is."
 
>Nightmare Moon hands over the plant and Luna consumes it
 
>Luna turns back to normal
 
Luna:" Nightmare Moon"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Yes Luna?"
 
Luna:" Never. Speak. Of. This. Again. EVER."
 
>Nightmare Moon lets out a bewitching laugh
 
Nightmare Moon:" Haha, I wont as long as you never do that again. You were really irritating me you know."
 
Luna:" I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I was just hungry and I decided that-"
 
Nightmare Moon:" That it would be better to eat something and face the side effects than starve. I know."
 
Luna:" You do have to admit that you were having a little fun though I mean come on, I couldn't have possibly been that irritating could I? "
 
Nightmare Moon:" In retrospect it was actually quite enjoyable seeing you become such a spaz. But at the moment I could not stand your child like behavior. "
 
>Some time passes and the two talk small talk until Luna drops the bomb
 
Luna:" Nightmare Moon, as I was running away I still overheard you talking to yourself. I heard you question your own morals and questioned why you didn't just take over me and lock me away. Now that I think of it I just want to say that I am very grateful for the acts of kindness you have done for me. You remind me a lot of Discord right now. "
 
Nightmare Moon:" I know why I am like this and that is all because of Anon. He is a good Pony. His conviction for me and you, us touched me and reformed me in a way I guess. How do I remind you of Discord though? He and I are not alike. "
 
Luna:" Anon truly is the thing that unites us all Nightmare Moon. Without him I would still be struggling and fighting against you.
 
The way you remind me of Discord is that you both love chaos and destruction and want to rule the world and if you see evil you don't do anything to stop it unless you are told to do so or if you have a personal gain in it. But you both also are willing to help if need be. "
 
Nightmare Moon:" I suppose that is true. "
 
 
 
>meanwhile at the Northern winter encampment the changelings have taken the residents captive and are cocooning them
 
>There is one changeling directing the rest
 
"Get the rest of those ponies to be quiet! And where's news on the injured Alicorn prince? Taken care of I presume?" It hissed impatiently
 
>the other changeling answers nervously "no the others have not yet returned!"
 
>The changeling in charge is angered by this "HOW HARD IS IT TO FIND A INJURED ALICORN AND A SINGLE UNICORN! FIND THEM"
 
"Right away sir, for Chrysalis!!"
 
>a small foal and her family are cowering nearby
 
>the foal whispers to her mother with quiet fearful tears:
 
"did daddy escape? Did he find help? I'm scared mommy..." Whilst shivering with terror
 
She whispers with a tear in her eye "I hope so..."
 
>A guarding changeling hisses at them to be quiet.
 
"Sir! Look! I think the scouts are back" as he points off into the distance
 
>The commanding changeling squints off into the distance "why...are they flying so erratically?!"
 
>(1:27 OF MUSIC NOW)<
 
>he focuses his vision to see bolts of magic flying through the air and the changelings fleeing with a look of terror on their faces
 
"WHAT?! HOW THAT ALICORN WAS NOWHERE NEAR FULL STRENGTH WHEN THAT BLASTED UNICORN TELEPORTED HIM" he screeched indignantly
 
>The changeling commander gets increasingly angry and order the others to ready themselves
 
>The terrified family look up with a glimmer of hope in their faces
 
>the group of changelings fly straight past the commander against his orders to turn back and fight Anon
 
>a magic blast from Anon strikes a changeling and it violently crashes through the roof of tent knocking over more changelings
 
>Anon lands on the snow in front of the changeling commander
 
"Let these ponies go. This is your only warning"
 
>the commander stares at anon with hatred "Never , you banished OUR QUEEN!"
 
>Anon stares right back, neither one refusing to break eye contact , his horn glowing brighter ready to attack
 
"Three..." Anon coldly announces
 
>the commander continues to glare
 
"Two..."
 
>Anon's horn begins to resonate loudly
 
>the Commander's eye twitches and his throat gulps
 
"ONE..."
 
>The Commander flys away from Anon towards the rest of the changelings shouting "go you useless idiots!!"
 
>the changelings disappear in a shimmer of green energy and flames
 
>The unicorn from the cave rushes over to Anon , having caught up
 
"Words cannot describe my gratitude! Prince Anon, you've saved my family and friends from the changelings"
 
"I'm just happy I was there in time" Anon replied modestly
 
"here , I'll help you get the citizens out of these cocoons"
You like?
 
 
 
Luna:" Nightmare Moon, If it wasn't for Anon, we would never be at peace with each other. We would always be fighting to take control of each other. I'm glad your disposition has been altered. I am glad to call you , myself, an ally. After all we are one and the same. We share the same heart and the same personalities, well almost same personalities. "
 
Nightmare Moon:" Alright Luna, let's join back together. We need to get the element soon."
 
Luna:" Alright Nightmare Moon. Let's do this."
 
>The two merge back into one
 
Luna:" Ah, it's good to feel whole again. Now in the name of Anon, I will find this element if it is the last thing I do. I am ready to face any challenges this temple has for me!"
 
>Then suddenly, an apparition appears behind her
 
Ghost:" Any challenges?"
 
>Luna tenses up as she hears a voice behind her and it is a voice she does not recognize
 
>Luna begins to speak in Early Modern English to try to seem more brave and to try to scare off whomever is behind her
 
Luna:" Who art thou? Why dost thee bother me?"
 
Ghost:" I am one of the many ponies here who died trying to get the element. My name is April. I perished as soon as I got to the Element."
 
Luna:" That must mean thou art a spirit older than I."
 
Ghost:" Indeed. Princess Luna of Equestria, I do not believe it will be worth your time to find the element. Many perils lie ahead. Many challenges are there that you must complete. From what I understand, your love for your Prince is as a technicality non existent but you still care for him. You have the memories of Love but you can not feel love. I'd say that is more than enough Princess. No need to continue."
 
Luna:" Go away. I do not need any warnings from such apparitions who had perished long ago. I have many motives for this quest. Thou does not know what I am capable of. I have been banished to the moon for 1000 years and had to struggle with my alter ego for all those years, 1000 years of inner conflict. Thou doesn't know the pain
 
 
 
>Anon is at the camp helping the citizens recover from the changeling attack
 
>he asks the Unicorn who revived him a question
 
"That potion how did it heal my injuries?"
 
"Simple really , Alicorn magic and the right potion, supercharger really , thank Celestia I found you when I did, I don't know why those changelings attacked and what they were planning"
 
>Anon grimly remarks "most likely coming after me in revenge for banishing their queen"
 
"Oh! We heard about that...and believe me news does not get around these parts very well so it was certainly big news your highness"
 
"Although if you don't mind me asking how did you become a the new Prince?"
 
>Anon sighed but politely smiled and said:
 
"It's a very long story, one I will have written down , but my mind is on a more important task I'm afraid."
 
>The Unicorn is intrigued
 
"May I ask what is is you seek in these parts ? Someone may be able to be of assistance."
 
Anon responds
 
"it's the artefact known as an element of passion , one on each end of the globe , my beloved wife Luna is searching for the other one"
 
" i might have some old books on that I believe , but the most in the chaos and danger I forgot to tell you my name!"
 
>Anon chucked
"True , there was other priorities I guess"
 
"My name's Hale, you'll need a place to stay the night before the blizzard sets in, and I'll fetch those books for you"
 
>Anon is lead to a large tent where is shown his sleeping bunk
 
 
 
April:" Allow me to join you Princess. My knowledge on the Temple's interior can be valuable to you. If my warning does not scare you away, then at least take me with you. I am at least worth your time. I understand this is a quest you must do on your own Princess, but I have already perished Thousands of years ago. There is no other pony here with you physically."
 
Luna:" Fine, Come with me April. Should you dare mislead me, I will make sure the rest of your afterlife is spent in eternal flames."
 
April:" I wouldn't dare mislead anyone in pursuit of love."
 
Luna:" Then let us go together."
 
>Luna enters the dark temple that has obviously been structurally damaged over the thousands of years it has been left neglected
 
>Fallen Pillars, rubble, and fallen torches lay everywhere inside the weak temple
 
>After traveling straight for a while, the Temple gets darker and there comes an intersection of sorts
 
>There are three paths that Luna may travel down
 
Luna:" Which one do we take?"
 
April:" That depends on your preference Princess. The one on the left leads to the leisure area but has many traps right outside it.
 
The one in front of us leads to a very treacherous path filled with many booby traps and obstacles, however the path is shorter.
 
The one on the right has the least amount of physical obstacles but will torture mind, the benefit of this path is that there is less physical activity involved and instead relies on will power for you to pass through."
 
 
 
>Anon has settled down for the night and is preparing to sleep after reading some books Hale gave him on the Northern temple.
 
The book was old and tattered , it was the only copy Hale had , he apologised but Anon was glad to have the extra knowledge , it was still readable and that's all it needed.
 
>Anon flicked through the pages of the old book with his magic
 
He found a page about how to find and enter the temple, surely enough it was simple enough to "find" entry was another matter however
 
"For thee who seeks entry to the Northern temple , thou must prove the worth of their resolve" anon pondered this and thought as to what the riddle meant , perhaps it only opens to those with great importance or in great need of it...surely he had that?
 
>he flicks through another few pages "Beware beware , the hollow colts prayer..." It was all so cryptic
 
"Ugh what are these warnings even meant to mean!" Anon cried
 
>he perseveres and find one more warning
 
"Only thou who has seen the darkest shadows can bear witness to the illumination within their own soul and be healed"
 
This one seemed to be talking about how to get the artefact itself , healed? He wanted healing, he most certainly wanted to feel his spark of love he had for Luna come back
 
That he was sure of.
 
>Anon let's out a yawn and decides to read more in the morning and feels himself drifting off to sleep
 
 
 
Luna:" I will go down the pathway on the left, I could use some leisure after all. Besides who knows what else could lie there."
 
>Luna goes into the leisure room and April leaves Luna to herself.
 
>The leisure room is a room that is elegantly decorated in red and the natural deformation of the Temple had given it beautiful skylights for the sun to shine through
 
>The room has many books filled with tales of the previous lovers that entered this place
 
Luna:" This place is truly extravagant. Tis a shame that it was abandoned years ago. I must read some of these tales though, who knows what secrets they hold."
 
>Luna learns about the tales of Ponies before her and Anon and sees the tales of two sets of lovers she had seen before which shocks her
 
Luna:" What are Rose and Jack and Lily and Henry doing in this book?! They were not around when this place was well known. Regardless, I must continue. April, you may return."
 
April:" I trust that you enjoyed the leisure room, Princess."
 
Luna:" I did actually. Now let's continue."
 
>Luna steps out of the room and is immediately impaled in her wing
 
Luna:" AHH! That was extremely painful! "
 
>Nightmare Moon separates once more
 
Nightmare Moon:" Luna, come, we can't stand around and just accept defeat because of an injury."
 
Luna:" I know, I know."
 
>Nightmare Moon returns back into Luna
 
>Luna speeds through the treacherous hallway in haste in an attempt to dodge the traps
 
>Luna's other wing also gets impaled but she makes it to the end
 
>Luna enters the next room in pain and notices a tall dark figure standing in the shadows
 
Unknown:" WHO GOES THERE?! TURN BACK AT ONCE! NO ONE MAY PASS!
 
Luna:" It is I, Princess Luna of Equestria, seeking the Element Of Passion which resides in this temple. Now answer my question, Who art thou? Why are you here? How are you here? I was led to believe this place was abandoned long ago."
 
Mempharious:" My name is Mempharious, The guardian of the Element of Passion"
 
Mempharious:" This Temple has been my home since its completion. Wherever the element resides, is where I resides. I have been here for thousands of years basking in loneliness as my Sister, Maia, has been guarding the other Element."
 
Luna:" I see. Now I assume you will not let me simply pass through here without passing some kinds of trials."
 
Mempharious:" Correct you are Princess. Here are the challenges you must face. I will decide which one comes first, but I want you to hear what they are first."
 
Luna:" Then Speak Mempharious."
 
Mempharious:" One trial you will face is the return of your very worst enemy. The other one is reliving your worst memories. The third and last challenge is being filled with hate and depression and disregard for the one you love. That will show me if you are truly convicted to your significant other."
 
 
 
>it is the morning , Anon is getting ready to leave and makes preparations to set off for the temple
 
"You watch yourself out there" Hale warned "those changelings will be back, skulking around i bet"
 
"I shall" Anon replied "and again thank you for that potion, saved my flank against the changelings!"
 
>Anon waves as he sets of into the tundra
 
"Only a few miles out from here , nothing too bad, clear skies , calm winds "
 
>he springs into flight to get a better aerial view
 
>The frozen plains shine in the soft glow of the dawn's winter sun
 
>after about an hour of flight Anon spots a structure in the distance , it looks old and forgotten
 
"I hope this is it. Finally, I can be done with this." He said with excitement
 
>he comes into land at the steps of the temple , frost lining the stairs
 
"Hmm better watch for that" he thought as he flew up the stairs instead of walking"
 
>Anon felt uneasy , he felt as though...someone...something...was watching him
 
>he scans the frosty landscape for any signs of company.
 
>Nothing.
 
"It's just the wind" he grunted but with a air of caution still looked over his shoulder as he entered the temple.
 
>Anon finds himself within the main chamber of the temple and finds himself in a dimly lit the stairs lead deeper underground, anon walks further down the hallway
 
>A stone slab reads an engraving , it reads
 
"Fear not thou's attacks, fear thy's faith in a defense
 
>An ethereal voice speaks out, distracting anon from reading and shaking the very walls of the temple
 
"THE ONE WHO CALLS HIMSELF ANON. I KNOW WHAT YOU SEEK YOU WILL SUCCEED"
 
>Anon, irritated and shocked responds "Oh yeah, how so?! Who are you to decide such matters?!"
 
"I AM THE GUARDIAN OF THIS TEMPLE, MY SPIRIT GUARDS THE PRECIOUS ELEMENT OF PASSION
 
YOUR SOUL IS BROKEN YOU CANNOT PASS"
 
>Anon hears a voice inside his head , it's his "evil" counterpart , his human side , representing his recklessness and rogue spirit
 
"I wouldn't listen to Casper there , he's just trying to deter us from the treasure you know"
 
>Anon speaks out loud at "himself"
 
"Would you be quiet! It's not treasure. It's more than that ... It the key to restoring Luna and I's love that we sacrificed! Jesus I thought I'd be free of your babbling for a while!"
 
>His counterpart retorts laughing
 
"don't bet on it, now move your ass and get to the treasure...OH one thing good job on that asskicking you gave those bug horsey things...pony...whatever! Thin-
 
>The ethereal voice booms over both of them
 
"YOU ARE UNIQUE, YOU POSSESS A SINGULARITY OF BODY...BUT ALSO DUALITY OF MIND...LIKE A SPLINTER MOST...INTERESTING...
 
...VERY WELL YOU MAY ATTEMPT TO ACQUIRE WHAT YOU SEEK...
 
>Anon still somewhat shocked from the guardian's introduction , carefully proceeds into the next chamber
 
"BE WARNED..." THE VOICE BELLOWED
 
"Jesus shut up. We get the picture mr intercom" snaps Anons rogue half
 
>Anon continues into the next chamber...
 
 
 
Mempharious:" The trial you will face first, Princess Luna, is the third. Brace yourself to be filled with more negative emotions than you have ever experienced in your whole life."
 
Luna:" Now remind me again why I can't just blast you and make you move out of the way so I can proceed down the hallway behind you and more likely than not, get the element of Passion which I need?"
 
Mempharious:" This hallway is sealed with a type of magic not even an Alicorn can undo. If you were simply to blast me, you would not be able to EVER get the Element as I am the only living being in this temple and within a possible 1000 mile radius who knows the spell to get rid of this barrier."
 
Luna:" Oh, I see now. Fine then, proceed with your trial and I will pass it with ease."
 
Mempharious:" Do not be so foolishly arrogant Princess. Judging by your appearance, I can tell you are not in the best of physical conditions now. I can tell that you have been through a lot to get here and you most likely feel that you can take on any challenge without breaking a sweat. That is a foolhardy attitude which will merely bring about your destruction like April, the ghost you had befriended walking in here, or any of the other Ponies that had perished here. I know you have befriended quite a few ghosts in your time."
 
Luna:" Actually, April is the only ghost I have met on my quest. Before I did not believe such apparitions were possible, but surely enough, she changed that."
 
Mempharious:" Are you sure that there was nothing suspicious about Lily, a pony who had waited years for her loved one to come to Southwood Castle? Mind you that SouthWood Castle lays in ruin and is barely standing to this day. Or about Rose, A pony you met in a cave about to fall off. Did you not find it odd how she spoke of High-class canterlot and a southern colony? Or how she had been arranged to be married? A practice that died many many many years ago, before your own birth. "
 
Mempharious:" You fool, all the information is right in front of you but you neglected it. This is a pointless argument I admit, but I felt like pointing it out."
 
>Luna takes a moment to process the information Mempharious gave to her
 
Luna:" You mean they were all ghosts? Blasphemy!"
 
Mempharious:" You never touched any of them once, so how would you know?"
 
>Nightmare Moon grows tired of this argument and decides to pop out
 
Nightmare Moon:" Can we please stop this pointless discussion? Ok they were ghosts, big whoop. What is the point? There is none. Those ghosts were of past lovers, okay cool, so what else? Can we please just get these trials done already? I want to get the Element of Passion soon. I'd rather walk home for days than listen to more of this pointless babbling."
 
Mempharious:" Interesting, Is this the Nightmare Moon that had pledged she would create Eternal Night, about a thousand or so years ago?"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Indeed, I am that pony."
 
Mempharious:" Interesting. I never knew you two were one and the same."
 
Nightmare Moon:" How Exactly DO you know about all of this?"
 
Mempharious:" I am an eternal being who has many vessels of which information passes on through to me. I see all, I know all. At least most things, I do not invade on privacy for private matters do not interest me in the slightest. Now Silence and do your task."
 
>Mempharious stops being so 1 dimension-ally antagonistic and decides to allow Luna and Nightmare Moon to complete the trial
 
>He teleports them to an empty white space
 
>He calls it a purgatory where he is able to do as he pleases and manipulate anything
 
>He aims his horn towards Luna and dark magic comes out of his horn and continually bursts into Luna's heart, making her entire body become a darker shade
 
>Her heart is flooded with darkness and all the negative emotions associated with it
 
Mempharious:" Now, Princess Luna, you must get from one end to the other."
 
 
 
>The female ghostly voice speaks out
 
"Anon this will test you. I delve into your past and your memories , every mistake and regret you have ever committed will be shown , every horror endured...relived
 
Every nightmare escaped from...reborn"
 
>Anon's gut drops like a stone...he knows exactly where this will take him...
 
The war.
 
The death.
 
The destruction.
 
Everything bad he wanted to forget Would come back.
 
>Evil Anon gets excited "ho ho. A trip down memory lane! Love it girl. Love it.
 
>Anon goes pale white at the thought of experiencing it all again
 
>Evil anon points out "it's not real stupid ...it's just gonna be like an action movie ... All the explosions ,none of the third degree burns!
 
>Anon took some strange reassurance in his other sides opinion, it was simply going to be an illusion , thus not real.
 
This thought gives him strength.
 
>The female voice exclaims "strange I have seen many a pony venture here but never before have I seen a mind like yours...so much death
 
Fire. Chaos. Obliteration. Complete annihilation.
 
And you ran. You watched the world burn...
 
From so far away...where...not this world that burned. Beyond the scope of this realm...what ARE YOU?" She questioned
 
You wear the mask of a pony but inside you are...something other worldly...nevertheless you will not succeed" she says as she regains her stern composure
 
>a rumbling fills the room and the walls fade away into blackness, Anons heart feels dread it occurs.
 
"LET US SEE YOUR PAST" the female voice spat with malice
 
>A large mushroom cloud is seen in front of Anon , it quickly disappears and burns out.
 
The sight of it disturbs Anon greatly
 
 
 
Nightmare Moon:" Hah! That is all?! All she has to do is walk from one end of this path to the other?! Is this a joke? If it is, then I am cracking up, if it isn't, I am still laughing at how pitiful this is! You are so pitiful, it truly is ridiculous."
 
Mempharious:" Just wait a minute, I was not finished. Allow me to continue. You must get from one end to the other, but here's the catch."
 
>Mempharious casts a spell and morphs the empty white hallway into one decorated with images and immortalizations of Anon
 
>He casts another spell which unleashes many Anons at Luna, all of them hostile
 
Mempharious:" The catch is, you must not injure any one of these Anons nor can you damage any item containing his likeness. You must walk down the path and at the end, you will be given your positive emotions back, and then you must destroy everything in sight, or else you fail and may not continue to the element."
 
Nightmare Moon:" That still remains an easy task. There is no reason why this will be difficult."
 
Mempharious:" Looks like I must silence you, your personality is getting stronger and I must not allow any interference. Luna must do this on her own."
 
>Mempharious magically steals Nightmare Moon's voice and makes her merge back into Luna, destroying the split personality
 
Luna:" Alright Mempharious, I'll do it."
 
Mempharious:" Then go. Complete the trial."
 
>The hostile Anons immediately charge at Luna as soon as the trial begins and start brutally attacking her
 
Luna:" What?! They are to fight me, but I can not fight back?!"
 
Mempharious:" Exactly why this is a challenge you fool. I warned you not to be arrogant."
 
Luna:" I despise all of them! I wish for them to ROT AND DECAY! And you mean to tell me that I may not unleash my fury upon them?!"
 
Mempharious:" Indeed. Now no more questions, just action."
 
 
 
>Anon is thrust into a warzone he finds himself bombarded with noises. Gunfire . Screams . Explosions the roar of fighter jets overhead.
 
>He looks to himself only to realise he doesn't have a body anymore
 
He knew this place. This was home at the time of the eastern coast assault.
 
They hit without warning. One million dead in one day. Land, air and sea , those bastards brought the lot and our forces didn't get there in time.
 
Leaving the innocent to flee or fend for themselves.
 
All anon could do was watch as once again he saw his homeland destroyed.
 
"It not real...it's not real...it's a trial...IT'S A TRIAL." He repeated to himself desperately
 
>Evil anon comments "these fuckin fireworks , such a Beauty to war in a way, the crushing supremacy of firepower, the power!" He says with a tone of awe
 
>a nearby building is brought down by explosions and he laughs manically
 
>Anon ignores him and wills him to the back of his mind
 
>The female voice speaks again:
 
"You see I have delved into your past and shown you a past horror, are you willing to give up yet? FOOL"
 
>Anon. Although disgusted and disturbed uttered a single defiant word...one single word.
 
"...No."
 
"There was something good on this day...a little bit of hope...in my kind"
 
>Anons viewpoint switched to that of a allied fighter pilot just entering the airspace
 
"There was still some good left in us"
 
>the fighter pilot is communicating on his radio
"Eagle squadron confirm approach co-ordinates and disengage current objective, command wants you to protect the VIP convey 8 klicks west of here and provide escort"
 
>the pilot expresses disdain at this idea
 
"SIR!! civilian evacs are left unprotected!! WE CAN'T LEAVE THOSE PEOPLE TO DIE
"THAT'S AN ORDER! PILOT!!" The operator on the other end screamed
"Disengage!! IMMEDIATELY!! "
The pilot calmly said "Negative..."
 
>The pilot disconnects command from his radio channel mid order "Denied sir"
 
>he radios his squadron "change of plan fellas, were protecting those civvies, command wants em to be left to die...I say otherwise, anyone want out now?"
 
>Silence is heard on the radio chatter
 
"Thats what I thought. ALRIGHT EAGLES 2 AND 3 PROVIDE COVER FIRE FOR GROUND UNITS. EAGLES
4 AND 5 ON ME , WE'LL TAKE OUT ENEMY AIR COMBATANTS"
 
>a round of "roger thats can be heard"
 
"Everything or nothing" the pilot mutters to himself
 
>he increased the speed on his approach towards the city
 
>he sees a hospital chopper full of civilians about to be shot down by a attack chopper
 
>Anon can only watch as the pilots desperately protect the civilians fleeing the city and the allied units on the ground
 
"Out of cannon and missiles , completely dry. Shit."
 
>A beeping noise can be heard in the cockpit of the Jet and the fiery explosion soon follows as an enemy jet finally takes down "Eagle leader 1" in a swathe of flames and burnt metal.
 
Anon remembers the story of the rogue fighter pilots who disobeyed a direct order to stay and protect the civilians
 
The reports stated they bought enough time for over 200,000 people to escape the city limits , Anon was probably one of them at the time...
 
>The female voice comes back
 
"Such destruction...yet some will hold onto valor and self-sacrifice till the very end...intriguing"
 
Anon is outraged now at the revisit of the trauma of the war
 
"IS. THAT. ENOUGH FOR YOU!!?" He screamed
 
The voice replied "that will do...the next trial awaits"
 
>the room fades back into reality and Anon gains back his corporeal body
 
>He breathes a long and deep sigh of relief that that part is over
 
"That was fun" interjected evil anon
"Not. Now." Anon commanded
 
 
 
>Luna begins to grow angrier and rage begins to build up
 
>Normally this rage would be released in the form of Nightmare Moon manifesting herself but this was no longer possible for it would be against the trial and Luna knew that
 
Luna:" Wait a minute, Why am I allowing myself to be further injured for someone I could care less about?! This is foolhardy."
 
>Mempharious watches from a distance, pleased that Luna is succumbing to his trial
 
>Then the beautiful moon that Luna had raised on her and Anon's anniversary had rose one more time
 
Luna:" Ah the moon. I wish I could be the one raising it. I miss Celestia and all of PonyVille and Canterlot. I miss my friends and my sister... and even Anon. As much as I want to murder him in the most brutal of ways, I miss him. I miss his charm, his humor, his flattering of me, I miss the good times. What am I doing?! I can't let myself be pushed around like this. These things may look and sound like Anon but I will not allow them to take advantage of that."
 
>Luna begins to power through the fake Anons knowing that they truly are not them and the real Anon, or rather part of him, lies within her pendant, The Element of Shining Darkness.
 
Mempharious:" I see you are a very resilient Pony, Princess Luna. You are the most unique visitor to this Temple in recorded history I must say. You have darkness inside of you that manifests itself as a whole other being due to an after affect the powers of the nightmares gave you. You have been banished to the moon for 1000 years, having a will power battle against your inner darkness every single moment. It takes a while for you to start accepting defeat, but as you do, you turn right back around and deny defeat and push onward. That is true courage. I need not even continue this trial, you passed."
 
Luna:" I passed the trial?! Hooray! Oh most joyful of nights!"
 
Mempharious:" Remember, there are still more trials ahead of you."
 
Luna:" Right, Of course. I apologize for my behavior."
 
Mempharious:" No need, now Princess Luna you will relive all your worst memories and nightmares. All your fears will come alive. Brace yourself, this challenge will be twice as hard as the last."
 
Luna:" I have no fear Mempharious, do your worst to me and you shall see , I shall prevail just like last time."
 
Mempharious:" Again, you over-estimate your own abilities. I have never met a living being so foolish for love. I will make sure that every single bit of repressed memories will come back to you and you will be crushed by your past."
 
Luna:" I have already dealt with my past Mempharious. Anon had helped me see the light and helped me stop living in the past. He instead turned my eyes in a new direction, the future."
 
Mempharious:" If you say so. Now it is time to stop fooling around. Let the trial begin!"
 
>Mempharious again teleports Luna to his purgatory and delves into her soul searching for any bad memories
 
Mempharious:" Ah, perfect. I doubt that your ever so precious Anonymous had helped you cope with this. This is a memory that has been repressed since you were a foal."
 
>Luna is shocked for she barely remembers anything from so long ago
 
>Mempharious unleashes the memory into his purgatory
 
Luna:" Oh....no.... No! NO! Please NO! NOT THIS!"
 
>The memory is of Luna and Celestia and their mother's death
 
>It was a peaceful day in Equestria when all of a sudden, Noctus, King of The Dark Realm had invaded Equestria
 
Noctus:" Queen of Equestria! I demand you show yourself! Your kingdom infringes on my laws! You must pay!"
 
>Luna is remembering everything in first person as if she was a foal again
 
Celestia:" Mommy! Mommy! Where are you?!"
 
Sora (The name I'm using for The Mom, Japanese word for Sky, thought it works well) :" I'm right here Celestia, why what's wrong?"
 
Luna:" Mother! Some really big bad guy is coming to the castle!"
 
Sora:" Is that so? Who could it be? I have made no enemies with any of the other nations. I can't imagine what someone could want"
 
Noctus:" Sora, Queen of the new Nation Equestria, You have broken the laws of my kingdom and you shall pay for it!"
 
>Sora goes out of the castle to see a whole army of dark creatures invading the new nation
 
Sora:" I did no such thing! I founded a nation with the three other rulers of the Pegasi, Earth Ponies, and Unicorns! I made a nation where all of us can live in harmony!"
 
Noctus:" Which is exactly what law you have broken. The three pony races can not live together according to my rules!"
 
Sora:" But we aren't even part of your kingdom!"
 
Noctus:" Regardless! You will be invaded and you will fall!"
 
Sora:" Not if I can help it! Celestia! Luna! Run back! It is not safe here!"
 
Celestia:" But mom!"
 
Sora:" NO BUTS! GO!"
 
Celestia:" Luna! Let's go!"
 
>Fear begins to build up in Luna as she recalls what happened next
 
>As Celestia and Luna left the castle, they were immediately captured by the dark creatures
 
Celestia:" Luna! We need to stay together!"
 
>Regardless of what effort they had, the two were taken away in two different directions
 
>Luna escapes but has to watch the horrible fight between the two titans, Sora, her mother, of the sky and Equestria, versus Noctus, King of the dark
 
Sora:" I will not let you defeat my kingdom! My people need me! My children are not ready for royal duties yet!"
 
Noctus:" We will see about that Sora."
 
>Noctus fires a dark laser against the Castle of the Alicorns and demolishes it instantly, trapping Sora
 
Sora:" ...How...dare...you! You monster!"
 
>Mempharious is observing Luna and sees the absolute horror in her eyes as she sees total war break out
 
>Luna begins to cry as she sees her injured mother try to stand up
 
Luna:" Mother! I'm coming!"
 
Sora:" Luna?! What are you still doing here! You must leave now!"
 
Luna:" Celestia was captured and so was I! I broke free but I do not know where Celestia is! Please let me help you! I learned some magic transfer spell from the books you forbade me to read."
 
Sora:" We will have a talk about this when this is all over Luna. There is a reason why I did not want you reading those books, but I guess it is a lost cause now. "
 
>Luna remembers that that talk, never happened again
 
>Luna's last words to her mother echo in darkness
 
Luna:" Mother, I am sorry but please! Take my magic! I love you mommy!"
 
Sora:" Alright Luna, do it"
 
>Luna casts the spell
 
Sora:" Oh my! Luna, you possess a powerful magic reserve inside of you! I had not even known about this! Thank you!"
 
>Sora stands back up, fully healed and recharged to 200% power
 
Sora:" Noctus! You will pay for what you have done!"
 
Noctus:" I'd like to see you try you pathetic Alicorn."
 
>The two fight and it reaches a stalemate
 
>Sora decides to use the most risky spell she knew
 
Sora:" Luna, Take good care of Celestia for me. I know you two will make me real proud one day."
 
>Luna remembers that those were her mother's last words to her
 
>Sora uses a spell that in sacrificing herself, an enemy of darkness will be destroyed
 
>A huge white flare goes off as all the dark creatures have been vaporized and Noctus and Sora are gone
 
>Tears rush like niagra falls down Luna's face
 
Luna:" Mmmmm-Mommy?"
 
>Mempharious laughs evilly
 
Mempharious:" See now? I told you I would find your worst nightmares, now this isn't even the end! This is only the beginning!"
 
>Luna does not hear Mempharious as she is too wrapped up in her past and can not stop shedding her tears
 
Mempharious:" Princess Luna!" He says with a booming voice
 
>Luna snaps out if it but still remains in a state of grief
 
Luna:" Oh right... I was doing this... Damn you Mempharious, it all felt too real! It was a memory that I felt as if it was happening now. For someone who is a guardian of an element that can restore or grant love, you seem to know nothing about it."
 
Mempharious:" Love has no place in my heart. I am a lonely eternal being. Attachments are not necessary for my existence. Besides, even if I get attachments, those attachments eventually will perish, and I will continue to exist without them. Love and friendship are magics that are not necessary for my existence and never will be. I do not need them and I am better off without them."
 
Luna:" I understand where you are coming Mempharious, but you truly do underestimate the worth of the Magic Of Friendship and Love."
 
>Nightmare Moon becomes impatient and again comes out
 
Nightmare Moon:" Can we PLEASE just continue? All this pointless banter and ranting is starting to get on my nerves! Can we please just do this already? Throw your worst at us now, I want to be done with this and I never want to see you again. You are so irritating Mempharious, why do you delay your trials in such a manner?! Just get on with it!"
 
Mempharious:" My my, someone is impatient, fine then, suit yourself. I'm sure that the following will be a memory that the both of you can dwell into."
 
>Mempharious transforms his purgatory again into the memory of being banished for 1000 years
 
Mempharious:" After this memory there lies one more, in order to pass, you must simply endure them and still want to continue on your quest. A rather simple goal if I do say so myself."
 
Luna:" Oh no, please no! Not this all again! NO I REFUSE!"
 
Mempharious:" REFUSE NOW AND YOU WILL NEVER GET THE ELEMENT AT ALL!"
 
Luna:" Alright, you win Mempharious. Please I beg you though, only do the worst of the worst, I want this to be fast."
 
Mempharious:" If you say so Princess." He chuckles
 
>Mempharious pulls out the memory of the worst will battle between Luna and Nightmare Moon
 
>Mempharious silences the real Nightmare Moon again
 
>Enter Memory
 
Nightmare Moon:" Luna, Why resist me? We are stuck here together whether or not we like it. Why do you keep on making it hard for yourself? Just give in to darkness and we can be at harmony and destroy those who sent us here."
 
Luna:" I would never harm my dear Sister!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Ah but you did!"
 
Luna:" Whilst under your diabolical control! I wish not to hurt the sister that has always cared for me. She was the only one in all of the world to give me any compassion! And now she sent me here to pay for my transgressions as I tried to force the moon onto everyone when it was the Sun's fair turn to be in the sky! My mother would have been extremely disappointed in me should she have seen what I have become!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Sora was nothing but a fool Luna! She sacrificed herself for a pitiful kingdom that had constantly disrespected one of the two royal sisters, and it was always you! You were always living in Celestia's shadow! The ponies would frolic and play and enjoy the day but always remained frightened of your night! You do know I was the Princess of the Dark Realm until someone had OBLITERATED MY FATHER, and that was your mother, Sora. I may now just be a manifestation of your inner darkness now, we may be one and the same, but we have different pasts. "
 
Luna:" I will never accept you as me! You are evil! You wish to hurt everyone I care about!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" That is true, but remember, these were all once your own desires. You wanted to have the moon be enjoyed so you would want to make people fear you to respect your night."
 
Luna:" But I am still filled with utmost regret for what I am responsible for."
 
Luna:" I can not believe I was so foolish as to allow so much darkness to enter my heart. I felt weak, like I was inferior to my sister. Celesita's subjects adored her and I was always awake in loneliness during my night. I am filled with so much remorse for listening to you, Nightmare Moon. I hurt the only person I cared about."
 
Nightmare Moon:" If she cared about you so much, why hasn't she at least sent you some kind of letter in response to your own? Why hasn't she given you a second chance? It's been 10 years already Luna. She is enjoying her rule and barely remembers your existence. You are pathetic."
 
Luna:" I...I suppose, you're right Nightmare Moon... If my sister truly did care about me, she would have done something at least in memory of me. She would've tried to reason with me, you, us. "
 
Nightmare Moon:" Exactly Luna! I am the only one who cares about you now! Darkness is your friend! You do not need light! I am here for you Luna! Together we can show everyone what fools they were to underestimate us! The were unappreciative of your night!"
 
Luna:" I just... I just don't know what to do! My heart misses Celesita and begs me to come to the light and yet you are the only one to offer any compassion for me."
 
>Luna begins bursting into tears in uncontrollable sorrow
 
Luna:" Sister... why have you forsaken me? Why I ask, Why?!"
 
>Mempharious is enjoying the display that Luna is putting on of her many tears
 
>He enjoys her pain, her grief, her sorrow, her depression
 
Luna:" What am I supposed to do?!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" That is for you to decide Luna. I will part from you for a while and leave you to your own thoughts."
 
>Luna begins to question everything that has happened to her
 
Luna:" Why do I even need to exist? I wish I wasn't an alicorn so I can just rot here and I will be gone. 1000 years is a lot of time... Its hard to believe its only been 10 so far. It has felt like 10 million"
 
>Meanwhile back in Equestria, Celestia is growing weary of being separated from her sister for so long
 
Celestia:" Oh Luna, I wish you were back already, it has only been about 6 days since I last saw you, but it feels no different than the millennium I have spent without you in the past."
 
>Celestia begins to reminisce on how lonely she was in the time of Luna's banishment
 
Celestia:" I remember when I had first banished my own flesh and blood sister. She was the only family I had left after Dad had disappeared and Mom had sacrificed herself. Although I was ruler of Equestria, the throne meant nothing to me. My faithful subjects often tried to cheer me up in Luna's absence, but it never prevailed. I always felt alone without her. She was my little sister, she always lived in my shadow. I understand why she did what she did, I just wish she didn't. "
 
>Twilight enters the room
 
Twilight:" Celestia, I couldn't help but over hear your reflection on the past. I know how lonely you must feel, and I'm sorry that I can't fill that hole in your heart. I just hope Luna will come back soon."
 
Celestia:" Oh Twilight, no one will ever replace my sister, she is one of a kind. You can never replace Luna, ever. No one can fill the void she leaves in my heart when she isn't here. Twilight, I have had to endure 1000 years without my sister. I was never truly happy with myself and with every single day that passed, my remorse for sending her there grew. I wanted to reply to her messages, but I was afraid that she would simply just throw it away."
 
Twilight:" You know that Luna missed you as much as you missed her Celestia, didn't you two work it out before?"
 
Celestia:" We have talked about this subject many times Twilight, but the remorse and the sorrow still remain. Until you lose a loved one, you will not know such emotions."
 
Twilight:" I'm sorry princess Celestia. Forgive me."
 
Celestia:" Twilight, there is no need to apologize! You have done nothing wrong."
 
Twilight:" But I am still sorry that Luna has not arrived yet. It is the night of their second anniversary you know, and We haven't heard from them since Luna reached the old southern colony."
 
Celestia:" I do miss my sister, Twilight, but I am glad that I at least have you here to accompany me. It would get truly lonely if none of my friends were here."
 
Twilight:" I'm glad to be here with you Celestia. You were so nice to me when I was a foal, I'll never forget it. I remember I was so worried I'd fail my entrance exam, that I almost didn't pass because of how stressed I was. If I never passed, who knows where Equestira would be!"
 
Celestia:" Without you, we might have easily succumbed to Nightmare Moon when she returned and we might have never gotten My sister, Princess Luna, back."
 
Twilight:" Maybe. I can tell you really miss her."
 
Celestia:" Twilight, I had banished my own sister for 1000 years and felt guilty for it every single moment there after. When she returned, I was over joyed! I never wanted to separate with her again. I'm sure she misses me as much as I miss her right now."
 
Twilight:" We all miss her Celestia. We miss Luna and Anon because they really made the night shine."
 
Celestia:" I must admit, my night pales in comparison to my sister's, after all she had been raising the moon for many years before me and has been to the moon before her banishment. If it is anyone who knows the night sky, it's Luna. It must have been painful for her to be in the moon she spent years and years before lowering."
 
Twilight:" It must've been horrible for her. She must have wanted to come home so bad and do it herself. She took pride in her night.
 
Celestia:" You've got that right Twilight. She took pride in the night more than anything else."
 
 
 
>The scene fades back into the temple chamber
 
"Impressive!" The female voice bellowed
"You possess the ability to see the light even in the darkest of times, but you lie at an even darker time, you are of another race YOU do not belong in the world of ponies, this element of passion is of no use to you, just look at your dark side.
 
Do you think HE requires love? No. He is the true vison of your race. Accept him and bring back your race I can return many with my powers.
 
YOU WOULD BE A WARLORD ALL OF EQUESTRIA WOULD FEAR."
 
>the voice casts spell on Anon sending him back into an illusion but he feels evil Anon get stronger within him. Who lets out a "...ooh my turn"
 
"let us see what "Human" power truly is"
 
>The voice sounds strained
 
"It takes me to the limit of my abilities to peer into the fabric of your world, but it can be done"
 
>The scene transforms further and Anons equine form turns into human again, he lets out a shocked scream "NO! STOP WHAT ARE YOU DOING"
 
>the voice responds maliciously
 
"False bodies are not be used in this trial. Your true self must face this.
 
>Anon feels great anger build up within for no reason, getting angered and angrier.
 
>Anon looks down and finds himself in full combat gear and appears to be in a green luscious valley.
 
>a soldier runs towards him "Commander Anon!!"
 
>Anon falls under the spell of the illusion and his dark half's influence
 
He greets the soldier with "Ah! , Good to see you, What's are the reports from the recon team?
 
"Intel reports these "ponies" have no real means to defend against us if we attack even with a small strike force"
 
"Excellent news! When I found my way into this world I was temporarily in wonder of surviving the war back on earth...I took the choice to go back however and it was wise of me I collected the last of us and brought out forces here in return for full miltery control" Anon said smugly
 
(This is a alternate past if anon chose to return to earth BEFORE Luna had feelings for him)
 
>An attack helicopter is coming into land
At the base
 
"Very true sir , won't we be detected?, do they not have any radar or security measures"
 
>Anon looks to the soldier with an eyebrow raised
 
"Did you expect a raise of talking horses to be a difficult conquest? I respect your caution however.
 
"What is the plan of action? Sir?"
 
>Anon begins to walk away
 
"Walk with me Sergeant, you see all of this?"
 
>Anon points towards the multitudes of soldiers and attack vehicles, choppers ,jeeps , trucks and a few tanks they managed to bring through
 
"The science team did an brilliant job doing what they did"
 
"This is the greatest opportunity in human history , our entire planet destroyed from nuclear war , and now we survive to come her! A world clean, untainted even by pollution! And by next week the rest of the reinforcements arrive from earth!
 
>they stop walking
 
"Now. the plan.
 
We need to destabilise the government before attacking , that will make it easier we have three main targets , two will be asleep at the time of attack,
 
we tranquillise them and smash the horns...they CAN be used as what i will loosely call an energy weapon"
 
>Anon hesitates (Real anons feeling bleeding through)
 
"The other...Luna ...ugh however is nocturnal so capture will be more difficult of that one"
 
"We move at dusk , I want secondary backup teams on standby if the stealth option fails , go loud."
 
Your squad will be on with the backup
 
"Yes sir!!, ill ready the teams"
 
>Anon stops him before he leaves
 
"Don't fuck this up and ill make sure you get the promotion you deserve... We lost a lot of high command before we came here. Now go"
 
>Anon looks arrogantly over the base as his army , awaiting his moment to conquest for the glory of humanity
 
>Nighttime is falling and Commander Anon is approaching the helicopter for the mission
 
>he walks past some soldiers and overhears their conversation
 
"I can't believe we don't have to ration food anymore! Me and Wacouski found a farm with APPLES on recon , FUCKING REAL APPLES
 
you know how long it's been since I ate an apple! Jesus. Me and him came back with Jones and stole half the crop! The entire base went apeshit at real food man.
 
But man. I would NOT go back there , Jones was on sniper surveillance and spotted the orange horse that lives there. IT'S PISSED. AS. FUCK.
 
>The soldiers notice Anon walking past and stand to attention
 
"Commander!" They say in unison
 
>Anon calmly replies as he walks past "At ease men"
 
>A pilot rushes up to him
 
>shouting over the roar of the choppers rotars
 
"sir? Does the chopper need any air backup support in case of hostiles!?
 
>Anon laughs at him
"Please calm down! you act like the enemy even have a chance ,
 
this entire operation is like when the spainards discovered the Aztecs and Mayans , only much more bizarre and probably easier!
 
we are "fighting" against talking horses here, please fucking remember that."
 
>his tone becomes more serious
 
"i appreciate your enthusiasm , but those birds take up fuel and I need to save those assets for real threats and until we find a new fuel source...sorry soldier but all aur units are grounded unless otherwise stated by me"
 
"Understood Sir!"
 
>Anon puts on a radio headset and steps inside the helicopter
 
He barks orders "lets get this bird off the ground!!" Everyone's here!
 
>Anon is pleased " Good , now Alpha team and will go in quiet via air drop and parachute and will follow my lead.
 
Bravo team! You will standby and remain outside the perimeter unless we are discovered at which point you will rush in, understood?
 
>The chopper takes off
 
 
 
Luna:" No one needs me. No one wants me. I am a worthless being imprisoned forever on the very thing that I took so much pride in once. No one loves me. My sister Celestia must hate me with every fiber of her being if she even remembers me anymore."
 
>Mempharious is standing by, sadistically enjoying Luna's misery
 
Mempharious:" I think this might just be the most miserable Pony in history. I have never seen anyone with such a dark past. This is like a movie, I adore this. I do wish I had popcorn to watch this delightful misery.
 
>Luna collapses onto the moon
 
Luna:" There is no more hope for me. When my 1000 years are all up, Celestia will not even remember she had a sister or what her name was. She probably gloats to the citizens of my defeat constantly. I am truly, all alone."
 
>Then Luna starts to remember it is only a mere memory
 
Luna:" Wait! This is a memory! Nothing more nothing less! I can't believe I would succumb to a bunch of trickery! I do have people who love me like My Sister and Anon and my friends!"
 
>A huge glowing light illuminating from Luna's Element of Shining Darkness banishing the darkness of the memory and returning the area to the white purgatory it is.
 
Mempharious:" Aww, but it was just getting good! Ugh."
 
>Mempharious goes down to Luna
 
Mempharious:" Congratulations, you have passed the second part of this trial. Now You will relive your very WORST memory. "
 
Luna:" What could possibly be worse than eternal imprisonment on the moon?!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" I am sick of you and your tricks Mempharious. It reminded me how harsh and evil I truly am. It reminds me that I also had a past before I joined with Luna and shared her memories. I despise you Mempharious. If you weren't eternal, I would demolish you without hesitation!"
 
Mempharious:" Yes yes yes, I know, I know. Now as you would like to say, can we please get on with this trial? This is taking quite a long time."
 
Mempharious:" Nightmare Moon, I will have to silence you one more time. Your spirit is too strong and has become too much of a separate entity from Luna to be counted as one and the same. Not that I mind, hearing your voice is quite annoying."
 
>Nightmare Moon was angered by the statement but before she could scream she was silenced and sent back into Luna.
 
Luna:" I am prepared for the next part of the trial Mempharious. Do what you want. I will always prevail!"
 
Mempharious:"Interesting how you say that Princess, what about the times you didn't? What about the time you failed to save your mother? Or how about the time you failed all your friends? You have failed many times Princess Luna, do not get cocky or else you will fail in the end."
 
Luna:" I know Mempharious. Now let it begin."
 
Mempharious:" As you wish, Princess."
 
>Mempharious brings back the memory from The night of the Grand Galloping Gala which was 2 months ago
 
Luna:" Ah the Gala! Such a wonderful time! I do not know why you think this is a bad memory, in fact this was my wedding day! One of the best days, if not the best, in my entire life!"
 
Mempharious:" Continue and you might remember why it was also one of the worst times of your life."
 
>Luna gets sucked into the memory, and she forgets that it is a mere memory, just like before
 
Luna:" Anon! Watch me raise the moon! Remember how I told you that you'd be astonished the night of the Gala? Well here is the reason why!"
 
 
 
>The Chopper rises up, it's rotars loudly
cutting through the quiet air
 
>Anon goes to the cockpit "take us up straight vertical, I don't want us to be detected from the ground.
 
>The chopper continues to fly further and further up above the clouds
 
>the co-pilot looks at something off in the distance "is that...a floating...city...it looks like a city but made of cloud...what the fuck..."
 
>Anon hastily looks over
 
"Jesus you're right. This world has more fucking surprises each time! adjust flight course! Don't get any closer!! We cannot compromise our element of surprise and risk being spotted, CHANGE COURSE!"
 
"Affirmative sir , changing course"
 
>The chopper takes a sharp swing away from the structure
 
>the co-pilot looks at the radar in panic
 
(00:45 of music)
 
"Sir! we got radar activity, something's closing on our position!"
 
>Commander Anon replies enraged "impossible, they don't possess that tech, it's one of ours TELL THAT PILOT TO LAND BACK AT BAS-
 
>the co-pilot interupts him
 
"SIR IT JUST WENT SUPERSONIC
 
>A deafening BOOM is heard and a bright streak of rainbow zooms past the front side of the helicopter shaking it and causing all sorts if alarms to sound
 
>the sudden jolt nearly causes Anon to lose his grip of the safety handle and fall out
 
>a soldier raises his voice "hostile? Sir , should we engage?
 
>Anon looks around "I have no idea where' the damn thing went , some if them can fly...but supersonic speeds...if it comes round ag-
 
>the soldiers eyes are wide open and looking at something behind Anon
 
>He turns to see a blue Pegasus with rainbow mane staring at him
 
>he jumps , his old memories resurface
 
"Rainbow dash...what.."
 
>Evil anon takes control back and looks at dash, with his hand on his weapon
 
>She looks shocked
 
WOAH HOW DID YOU KNOW MY NAME, WHAT THE HELL IS THIS THIN-
 
>Anon shoots her with a tranquilliser, she stops, her wings droop, she falls limply to the floor and slides out of the chopper her unconsciousness body tumbling through the air
 
 
 
>Luna raises the moon on the exciting night of the Gala
 
Luna:" What do you think Anon?"
 
Anon:" Luna! This has to be the most gorgeous and spectacular moonrise of all time! The night is so clear and it's shining so bright! I really can't wait for the Gala Luna, I know it is going to be a night to remember. It will be truly incredible!
 
>Suddenly, Anon feels a sharp and antagonizing pain in his temple very briefly and hears " Unit 15 extend no fly zone to 90km of site Alpha"
 
>A look of fear , terror, and absolute horror comes upon his face.
 
Unknown:" Lab lambda running anti-mass spectrometer"
 
Anon:"WHAT?!"
>He starts looking around desperately
 
>A short moment later, You gasp clutching your head. Thankfully, it stops and you begin to calm down.
 
Luna:" Anon! Whats Wrong?! Please tell me the truth so I may help you!"
 
Anon:" Nothing Luna. Thank you for your concern, however I'm just fine. It was just mere flashbacks nothing more nothing less darling. I am so sorry for startling you Luna, please forgive me."
 
Luna:" Alright Anon, I believe you. But remember this; my love for you knows no bounds and I will care for you for eternity."
 
Anon:" Of course Luna. Of course."
 
Luna:" Come, let us relax together in our bed. I think you could use some relaxation time right now."
 
>Anon and Luna spend some time in her room together relaxing trying to take his mind off of things again. But it isn't doing any good. He doesn't make it apparent but his memories are haunting him again. More so than before.
 
>Luna notices that something is wrong but she remains blissfully hopeful that this will help Anon
 
>It is finally time. It is here, The Grand Galloping Gala will soon start.
 
Luna:" Anon! Its time to go! its our big night! Put on those elegant garments Rarity made for you and Let's Go!"
 
Anon:" Right away Luna!"
 
>Luna has more energy than a thousand pinkie pie's in this moment. She is obviously excited for their special night. Anon is just as excited as well. He is marrying not only royalty, but someone who he is convinced is his soul mate. However Anon's haunting memories are starting to get the better of him.
 
>Anon and Luna Get to the Gala to be greeted by Princess Celestia.
 
Celestia:" Luna! Anon! My guests of honor! Welcome!"
 
Luna:" Thank you Dear Sister for arranging mine and Anon's wedding at the Gala! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!"
 
Anon:" Yes Celestia. Thank you."
 
Celestia:" My my Luna, someone is quite excited! That's unusual for you Luna, You're normally more reserved. I am delighted that you are so excited! Luna, may I please speak to Anon for a moment? I'm sorry but I just want to talk for a brief period of time then he's all yours I swear Sister."
 
Luna:" Oh of course Sister! I don't mind at all as long as I marry him I am happy!"
 
>Luna goes to greet the mane 6 and talk to them for the while until Anon and Celestia are done with their conversation.
 
Luna:" Twilight! Applejack! Rarity! Pinkie Pie! Fluttershy! Rainbow Dash! So glad that you could all make it! I am so happy to see you all here!"
 
Twilight:" And we're happy to be here for you Princess Luna!"
 
Rainbow Dash:" Yeah! This is so much more Awesome than last year already! Definitely at least 20% cooler!"
 
Pinkie Pie:" Yeah! And wait til you see the after party! It's going to be a blast!"
 
Luna:" Oh thank you so much for coming all of you. You are my closest friends and it means more to me than you know. I simply can't wait to be married to Anon! And I am definitely sure that the After party will be as great as you say Pinkie!"
 
>Anon finishes his conversation with Celestia and comes out to greet Luna again
 
Anon:" Luna!!! My love!!" He runs to her as they kiss and then hold hoof in hand to the stage where they are about to get married.
 
>He seems comforted slightly by the embrace and joy seeing Luna so happy but it doesn't hold for long.
 
>The Priest Makes them say their vows. Anon os about to be fully married to the one he loves more than anyone and anything in the world.
 
>Princesses Celestia, Twilight Sparkle, and Cadance are all lined up and ready to preform the magic spell to make Anon an Alicorn.
 
>However, all of a sudden, Anon begins to become transparent, fading in and out of view
 
>A confused Anon soon realizes what is happening
 
Anon:" LUNA!!!! I'M FADING AWAY!!!! THE VOICES, THE RADIO CHATTER! IT'S PULLING ME BACK! BACK INTO HELL!! THE WAR! EVERYTHING!"
 
>You start crying to Luna and see how everyone is so distraught at the madness and evil unlike any other is happening. >"IT'S PULLING ME BACK THERE LUNA! IT'S REAL THIS TIME! PLEASE! DO SOMETHING! ANYTHING! CAST A SPELL! I BEG YOU!"
 
Luna:" Of course! Right Away Anon!" She says in a panicked and distressed voice
 
>Luna hastily casts many spells on Anon in vain in hope that somehow it can stop this but it fails
 
>Anon is being sucked into a dark vortex, being engulfed by black flames
 
>The last thing Luna sees is Anon's distraught and terrified face before he is completely engulfed by the dark flames
 
Luna:"Aaa-Anon?"
 
>Tears begin to flow down Luna's face as she is heart broken
 
 
 
>The pilot looks over his console
 
"Alright sir, we are over the drop zone" wind is light so your descent will be calm, once all members drop I will regroup with bravo team and be on standby
 
>Anon is attaching his parachute and placing his night vision helmet on
 
"Good , now remember gentlemen , WHY we do this. The survival of humanity!!
 
"Green light on the jump commander, go when ready sir!"
 
>Anon jumps out of the chopper
 
>He feels the rush of the wind on his face and cantorlot getting closer in his vision
 
>he presses a button on his radio "all units , be advised , i want this to be a stealthy landing" he barked
 
>The team descend and pull their black parachutes open , landing gently in the cantorlot gardens
 
>once everyone lands Commander Anon addresses them
 
"Alright you know the plan! You two with me! The rest of you, follow Walker! Tranquillise anything you can't sneak past , hide the body ,if you run out of darts...
 
>Anon pulls out a combat knife and smirks "this might come in handy"
 
"Easiest. war. ever ...move out team"
 
>Anon and his squad make their way across the gardens, Anon sees his reflection in a pond
 
>he sees an equine face looking back at him instead of a human face
 
"Wha-thats...me..."
 
"Sir?" A soldier asks
 
>The real anon almost takes control
 
"SIR?"
 
"Y-yes ...what the fuck? NEVERMIND let's go!"
 
"yes sir!"
 
>The team make their way from the castle gardens into the palace , taking out guards silently as they go, they finally make their way in.
 
>they overhear a pony talking with Twilight.
 
>Anon puts a finger to his lips whilst looking at the rest of the squad
 
"...so you see the townfolk have complained of disturbances from the everfree forest, a pack of burnt timberwolves were found with these embedded in them...
 
>The pony holds up a crushed bullet casing
 
"...not only that, your friend applejack was robbed the other day and there's been odd noises from the forest.
 
 
 
>Mempharious evilly laughs as he sees the grief on Luna's face
 
Mempharious:" YES! THIS IS PERFECT! There is NO WAY She is going to survive this"
 
Luna:"...Anon..."
 
>The entire crowd gasps in horror and awe after what they just experienced.
 
>Luna bursts into tears as she lost her true love. Luna's closest friends come to comfort her. The Princesses and The Mane 6.
 
Celestia:"... Luna... I... I don't know what to say."
 
Luna:" Stay Away From me! Don't try to comfort me! I just lost my one true love!" Says Luna in an antagonizing Royal Canterlot voice.
 
>Luna Storms out of there and depression, sorrow, and darkness start to fill the void in her heart left by the now gone Anonymous, her one true Soulmate. Just as it fills her heart, it eats the other parts of her heart. Slowly corrupting her. She hears The essence of Nightmare Moon Calling out to her.
 
Nightmare Moon::Luna .I Know what you just went through was tough. But join with me again and we will be powerful enough to Find Anon where-ever he is.
 
Luna:" ... You win Nightmare Moon. I will do anything for Anon."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Yes yes, blah blah."
 
>Just as she gives into the dark magic of Nightmare Moon, Her friends find her at her old Castle that lays in ruins in the everfree forest. They are all shocked to see that it is no longer Luna that stood there, It was Nightmare Moon.
 
Celestia:" Luna! No!
 
>Luna pauses for a moment
 
Luna:" Wait! What am I doing?! This isn't right! I will not be under Nightmare Moon's control again!"
 
>Luna's element of shining darkness again dissipates the darkness and the memory
 
>Mempharious begins clapping
 
Mempharious:" Well done Luna, well done. You have prevailed through all of your darkest memories. You have completed your trial. And for that I will also heal your wings. They have been bleeding for quite some time now, I have decided that you have earned this help."
 
Luna:" Thank you, Mempharious."
 
Mempharious:" My pleasure Princess Luna, anyone who can survive two trials in a row certainly deserves it. Now time for your third trial. I have taken the liberty of keeping Nightmare Moon silenced. She most likely would comment on her behavior in the memory. Either way it is now time for your third and final trial. You MUST face your worst enemy."
 
Luna:" Who could that be? Noctus, King of the Dark Realm? Discord? Nightmare Moon?"
 
Mempharious:" You shall wait and you shall see. Let us just say that your greatest love is your greatest enemy. Love can lead to your downfall."
 
Luna:" What do you mean?!"
 
>Mempharious ignores Luna and teleports her into the Alternate Dimension where Evil Anon is executing his plan to take over Equestria
 
>Luna appears in front of the throne and rushes to Celesita
 
Luna:" Celestia! What have I missed?! Is there something wrong?! Twilight?! What are you doing here?!"
 
Celestia:" Twilight is with me because I am holding an emergency meeting Luna. Glad to see you came. Someone or Something has been assaulting Equestria. Someone has seen burnt timberwolves with these strange pieces of metal in them. Twilight show it to her."
 
Twilight:" Right away Celestia!"
 
>She presents the evidence and Luna recognizes the bullet and is in shock. She remembers the bullet due to remembering Anon's dream about his war torn world."
 
Luna:" This is a Human invention!"
 
Twilight:" What is a human?"
 
Celestia:" Indeed dear sister, what is a human? I have never heard of such a creature."
 
Luna:" They are other worldly creatures. Do you not remember Anon?"
 
Celestia:" Oh! That's what he was? So his people are doing this? I should have never sent him back."
 
Twilight:" Um who's Anon?"
 
Celestia:" A creature who ended up here by mistake. Oh and by the way sister, Applejack's farm has been raided and all of the apples are now gone! Do you think this is the work of the Humans as well?"
 
Luna:" Anon told me about his people. About the 7 deadly sins that plagued his people. Greed was one of those sins. I have to assume that they were."
 
Celestia:" We must go then, come Twilight and please do come sister."
 
 
>Evil Anon sees Twilight and Celestia walking together out the throne room
 
>He does not see Luna
 
>Anon makes a motion to his team and jumps out from the corner and lunges at twilight taking her by surprise
 
>He pulls out his pistol and states "don't fucking try ANY of that magic or I will put a bullet in you right here princess!!
 
>Twilight screams
 
>the rest of the squad come out and point their guns at Celestia
 
>he fails to realise Luna is out of sight behind the doorway behind him just out of view from where twilight and celestia are
 
"Hello again, Celestia so wonderful to see you ,
 
I'm sorry I have to do this , but my planet IS dying, no scratch that DEAD
 
...and yours is so much less...well...irrradiated
 
"DON'T. EVEN. THINK ABOUT RESISTING. Just see.
 
>he communicates into his radio headset
 
>his
 
"Base this is commander Anon , please confirm combat readiness to attack target location identified as "Ponyville"
 
>he awaits the response while staring at Celestia with the most arrogant fucking smile anyone had ever seen
 
>the voice on the other end responds
 
"All units are combat ready and awaiting orders sir!"
 
>Anon looks to Twilight
 
"So...your going to come quietly otherwise...
 
>his stare intensifies
 
...the princess gets it and I firebomb and destroy an entire town of YOUR people!
 
"AND I've got another team heading for Luna before you get smart , so don't pull that card on me!"
 
>Anon is still unaware Luna is in the other room
 
"Well Celestia?" What's it gonna be?"
 
"My people are desperate and are out of hope...I have given them salvation, saved them from that nuclear wasteland, they will carry out that order if I say it!"
 
>Luna is hiding behind the doorway in shock that that is Anon and he is willing to obliterate those he cared about for his people
 
>Luna sees Anon as an Alicorn
 
>Luna begins talking to herself quietly
 
Luna:" I can't believe this... Is this what Mempharious meant? That My greatest love is my greatest enemy? Is Anon my greatest enemy?! I can't imagine he would do any harm to me... Or would he?"
 
 
Celestia:" Anon, I see now the evil that lurks within your heart. I should have never allowed you to go back to your home. You are despicable! How could you do this? After the Equestrian Citizens were willing to aid you? You are the scum of the universe. How dare you."
 
Anon:" So you want a fight eh? Remember I can have this entire place annihilated with a simple command. Do not test me Sun Butt. You know I CRAVE Chaos and Destruction. It really is easy I just say the word, and you all die. Quite amusing actually."
 
>Luna begins to cry in the background and she is risking being noticed
 
Anon:" Walker, do you hear that? Go investigate it before I stick my boot up your ass."
 
Walker:" Sir yes sir!"
 
>Walker goes to investigate
 
>Luna hears his footsteps and quickly changes into nothing but shadow
 
Walker:" Nothing here sir!"
 
Anon:" Alright Come back and keep an eye on the princess. Now Celestia, have you made your decision? It'd be a shame if you refused and allowed your people to experience mass genocide now wouldn't it?"
 
Celestia:" Fine. But first duel me right here right now! I will go quietly if you defeat me!"
 
Anon:" A duel eh? Sounds fun but no thanks. I've got a little friend here that can make you go quietly, in fact you'll never speak again!"
 
>Anon prepares to fire the bullet and as he does, Luna turns into blue mist and catches the bullet
 
Luna:" I don't think so. How could you Anon?! After the time we spent together?! I can't believe you would do such a thing, but now I see it right in front of my eyes, you are no longer the Alicorn I knew."
 
>Anon looks at Luna and almost smiles
 
>he twitches as evil anon regains control yet again
 
>the smile turns into a scowl
 
"Alicorn?! What's an Alicorn?" Once knew? Why do you act as if we have a past? I mean we do , but its a very breif one...make sense right now!
 
"Nice catch Luna , but the threat still stands!
 
Do you REALLY want to make me order the attack and end hundreds of innocent lives?
 
"Now! I would love to go full auto on this whole thing! No really I WOULD.
 
...but to the victors go the spoils...and I'd prefer to not damage my prize.
 
>Anon trails off
 
" what should I call it? The bountiful human empire? Brotherhood of man?
 
The kingdom of Anon!
 
Wait no ...even for me that's too much."
 
>he refocuses
 
"OH right yes you! Stand down now and nobody dies!!
 
Come on Luna...
 
>his tone becomes deadly serious
 
...or your people get a dose of "humanity"
 
Luna:" ... Anon, I surrender. I can not allow the lives of innocent citizens to be at risk just because of love."
 
Anon:" Really now? Wow. I'm surprised you didn't try some bullshit like "I will not stand down because Anon cares about me and he would never truly hurt me!" You get bonus points for that moon butt."
 
Luna:" I knew that the Anon I cared about is long gone. You are not the Alicorn I was on a quest for. You may look like him, sound like him, and even appear like him, but I know it isn't the real Anon. You are most likely his own manifestation of darkness."
 
Anon:" How right you are miss Moon butt. Now Celestia, I assume since your sister is coming, you and the other princess will be coming to because if you don't, then you can say your goodbyes to your sister now."
 
Celestia:" Anon, you win. Take us away. We surrender. Just promise that my citizens will not be harmed in this horrible takeover."
 
>Anon has his fingers crossed behind his back
 
Anon:" Oh yes! I do promise with UTMOST sincerity that none of your people will be harmed if you come with me."
 
Luna:" Then lets go. I will go wherever you go Anon. My only regret now is that I married you in the first place. I should have never married such an evil person."
 
>Anon laughs at this
 
"Married?! What the hell are you on about? When did THAT happen, whew I must have missed that one"
 
>But it did happen..." Anon says gently but then quickly reverts to evil anon
 
>Anon rolls his eyes
 
"I know that maybe to your primitive race my species may seem like gods ! But reassured babe , I would never marry a talking horse in a million years"
 
>Anon smirks at her
 
"Sure a pretty horse! No doubt , but a horse no less"
 
>Anon orders a soldier over
 
"Yes sir?"
 
"Get bravo team on the line, tell them to get there asses here and tell base to secure the area and the outlying regions before the fireworks begin!!"
 
>Anon looks towards Luna
 
"Don't be so sad Luna! Out with the old , in with the new!
 
My people call it survival of the fittest.
 
The species the most adaptable to change is the one that survives.
 
>Anon looks out the window
 
"War is a beautiful thing really,
 
A Great warrior once said:
 
to crush your enemies, to see them fall at your feet -- to take their horses and goods and hear the lamentation of their women. That is best.
 
"Now you see that quote is ruined because of you guys, no fun."
 
>Anon answers his radio
 
He looks away from Luna and whispers into the radio
 
"...all units prepare for a attack..."
 
Luna:"What did you just whisper into that device?"
 
Anon:" None of your business idiot, thats what. Now come on, you and your sisters have a specific dungeon you need to get to."
 
Luna:" Dungeon? You never said anything about a dungeon!"
 
Anon:" Woah no need to get all fiesty there Moon Butt. It's just an extra step of security, I can't just have my most valuable prisoners escaping at all now can I? Walker, escort these, ladies, to their dungeons if you will. I have something much more important to attend to."
 
Walker:" Right away sir!"
 
Anon:" And Remember, put on the god damn magic inhibitors!"
 
Walker:" Yes sir!"
 
Anon:" Actually you know what, keep the blue one here with me. I'm gonna have fun with this one."
 
Walker:" Understood sir, here you go!"
 
>Walker hands over Luna to Anon and walks off with Celestia and Twilight
 
Anon:" Now I would like everyone else who is in the room to get the fuck out of here and do something productive to the cause. Find food, find a clear area to settle in, find something of value! GO!"
 
>The soldiers all chant "YES SIR!" And march off
 
Luna:" What exactly did you want with me Anon? I thought you hated me and didn't care for me."
 
Anon:" Right you are Princess, but I want to make you suffer. I want you to witness the downfall of your own kingdom at the hands of someone you love!"
 
Luna:" You monster! You wouldn't!"
 
Anon:" Why thank you for the compliment, I try. And oh my dear Princess, I already did."
 
>Anon pulls out his radio and gives the command to attack the civilians and slaughter any resistance
 
>Anon keeps Luna beside him and makes her watch as Ponies are mercilessly butchered and homes are furiously burnt
 
Anon:" Ah... All the chaos, a beautiful sight isn't it, Nightmare Moon? Come on, I know you're still in there somewhere, you know you're no goody two shoes, Join me and we can destroy this land and pave over its remains a New Country!"
 
>Nightmare Moon fights as hard as she can to manifest herself out of Luna but fails to do so
 
Nightmare Moon:" Luna, you must allow me to take control of you. We must convince Anon that We are evil, perhaps we can then get under his skin and we can save the one you love!"
 
Luna:" Can I really trust you Nightmare Moon?"
 
Nightmare Moon:" I think I have proven my trustworthiness throughout the duration of this quest Luna. Besides should all else fail, you have the Element of Shining darkness. It can be used as a last resort to try to wipe the evil that has taken over Anon and You can use it to restore yourself as well. "
 
Luna:" And why don't we just use the Element now?"
 
Nightmare Moon:" He isn't vulnerable enough. He hasn't opened up to us Luna. Once he does though, we can take the shot."
 
Luna:" Alright Nightmare Moon, you win. Let's do it."
 
>Luna allows nightmare moon to take over
 
>Luna's body morphs into that of Nightmare Moons, her fur coat turning as black as night, her teeth becoming sharp, her eyes growing wider
 
>Transformation complete
 
Nightmare Moon:" I have arrived, as upon your request you cretin. This chaos is absolutely delightful, this pleases me very much, now if I were to have my moon raised, then I can enchant your soldiers with extra strength! We can put an end to this wretched reign my Sister had created and establish a new empire! First Equestria, then the crystal empire! If we take that over, darkness will spread throughout the land, making the ponies your slaves!"
 
>Anon eagerly grins at nightmare moon
 
"You and me are gonna make a great team , you know it's nice to have someone like you on their team!"
 
>Anon goes quieter for a sec and trails off
 
"Nice to have someone...have...someone"
 
>he glances at her with a look of longing, only for a second
 
>he snaps back to evil anon
 
"RIGHT , Down to business"
 
>he barks orders into his headset "bravo team get me a chopper running surivellice ASAP, all other teams raid surrounding settlements for food , items, burn to the fucking ground for all I care!
 
>he laughs manically
 
"I truly know what it feels like to BE a king"
 
"No human has done what I've done, saved my own race from annihilation, conquered a new planet , weeeelll that's a work in progress but I think it's a given!
 
"I mean what resistance can this place mount against the godlike power my people possess?
 
>he booms in a arrogant voice
 
"The almighty power of humanity!!"haha!" , they'd write about me in the history books!
 
I can see it now!
 
Anon: Saviour of man!
 
>he spins his pistol on his finger carelessly causing a shot to go off startling a nearby guard
 
"Ahh! Commander! he shouts
 
"You survived worse, shut up" responds Anon "big baby..."
 
>the soldier frowns but doesn't say anything
 
So. Nightmare Moon, shall we go to war?
 
>Anon's radio chatters
 
" Let's go then!!" Anon says
 
Nightmare Moon:" Let us go Conquer the Crystal Empire! The only two that stand in our way is that pesky Alicorn Cadence and her Husband, Shining Armor. I must say It is interesting how both people in the Sparkle family made it into royalty. I can summon my fellow Nightmare creatures to help keep the mainland of Equestria under control and your men and I can charge in and power the crystal heart with darkness instead of joy!"
 
Anon:" I like your style, you sadistic Alicorn. But of course I'd get all the credit in the end. I mean come on! I am the next Messiah! I am the next GOD! I will be unstoppable when we get the Crystal Empire under my control! "
 
Nightmare Moon:" Then what are we waiting for? Let us go conquer the Crystal Empire. Of course you must go there first, Mr. New Messiah. How else will you get your name in the history books if you aren't seen antagonizing the others?"
 
Anon:" You make a good point Nightmare Moon. Alright call in your Nightmare Creatures to watch over Canterlot and Ponyville, and I will send my men to the Crystal Empire."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Right away my liege."
 
Anon:" My liege eh? I could get used to that."
 
>Anon begins to brag to himself in vain and over hears one of his soldiers crack a joke at his expense
 
Anon:" What did you say about me? Looks like someone is going to be disposed of."
 
>Anon discharges his weapon in haste and murders the soldier
 
Anon:" Walker! Clean up this mess immediately! And get your friend to help you to, whatever his name was, Jack or something."
 
Walker:" Yes sir! And it was Mac sir."
 
Anon:" Did you just correct me?"
 
Walker:" Uh.. No sir!"
 
Anon:" You're lying to me in fear. I see. Well if you don't want to end up like this poor guy right here then I suggest you stop your ranting and get busy."
 
Walker:" Yes sir!"
 
>Anon walks away
 
Anon:" Coming Nightmare Moon? We don't have all day, er night I guess."
 
Nightmare Moon:" In a moment, Making eternal darkness isn't as easy as you think."
 
>Luna remains inside, frightened that Nightmare Moon is planning a betrayal yet again, but she still keeps a little faith in her other half
 
>Anon exits the castle and pulls out his forces
 
Anon:" Alright guys, stop what you're doing. We're getting a lift to the Crystal Empire to proceed our conquest. Call in the Choppers!"
 
>Nightmare Moon calls in her Nightmare Creatures
 
Anon:" Good, I see her Nightmare Creatures are here, and just in time to because our rides here. Alright men! Let's do it! In the name of Earth and Humanity, We will conquer this world!"
 
>The soldiers all cheer and the helicopters take off
 
Nightmare Moon:" Alright my Nightmare Creatures, tonight we rule! But we do not rule with an Iron fist. I need you to free any and all citizens who are being held captive."
 
:" But my Princess! We normally cause havoc!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" And we are! We are causing havoc to someone who wants to establish a new rule in Equestria. Should we let him gain too much power, he may back stab me. So I am backstabbing him first! Now go! Undo what he has done! I must join him in the Crystal Empire soon, I hope that when I go there, I will be able to dispose of the evil inside him. Before I go you must bring Celestia and Twilight to me though."
 
>The Nightmare Creatures do her bidding and bring Celestia And Twilight to her
 
Celestia:" Nightmare Moon?! How?! Why have you freed us?"
 
Nightmare Moon:" I do not wish to harm you Sister. Neither do I wish to harm you Twilight. I am reformed. I have gained the trust of Anon and I have my dark legion undo-ing everything he caused. Even using their magic to revive the dead citizens his men so ruthlessly slaughtered. Now I have a plan. When I get to the Crystal Empire, I will bring you there as prisoners. Then when we are about to taint the Crystal Heart, we our Alicorn Magic to banish his evil."
 
Celestia:" I don't trust you, but Allies can come from unlikely places I suppose."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Celestia, I have changed. I no longer wish to harm you. I am at peace with Luna. In fact she is allowing me to do this. She can change into herself at any moment she wants! Let me summon her for you."
 
>NMM Summons Luna
 
Luna:" Alright, I just hope Anon doesn't get too suspicious of us."
 
>Luna transforms back into herself her teeth straightening, her eyes becoming more round, her coat becoming brighter, Her mane becoming shorter.
 
Luna:" Celestia! How good it is to see you! You as well Twilight! I'm so glad you're okay!"
 
Celestia:" Sister, is what Nightmare Moon said true?"
 
Luna:" Indeed. She and I have come to terms and accepted that in the end, we are one and the same. That she is the embodiment of my own darkness."
 
Twilight:" Wow, I never thought I'd see the day that that would happen! I'm happy for you Luna!"
 
Luna:" Thanks Twilight. Now I must turn back into Nightmare Moon and we must go fulfill the plan. It has to work. I will do anything to get Anon back. That will teach Mempharious. I will pass his trial and I will succeed!"
 
Celestia:" Who is Mempharious?"
 
Luna:" Never mind that Sister. I bid you farewell in this form. And I will say hi in the next."
 
>Luna morphs back into Nightmare Moon
 
Nightmare Moon:" Now come Celestia and Twilight! I can not risk leaving you here! You are too much of a threat to the new order that I and Anon will create! You will come with me!" She says in a loud and booming voice so Anon could hear
 
>Commander Anon is giving orders to his men as Nightmare moon returns to his side
 
"...alright, I'll need ground teams on approach to the crystal empire, heavy armour , jeeps and infantry...this WILL be an easy victory!
 
But we need a show of force.
 
This world needs to hear the word "humanity"...
 
...and tremble in fear."
 
>Anon communicates into his radio
"Alright pilots its your lucky day, you get to go hunting!
 
I want those Jets to reign fire! BASE, get those fucking pilots in the air!!
 
>A hurried "yes sir commander!" is heard on the other end
 
"Good...good...OOOH Nightmare Moon you have got to see this...a fine machine of war!
 
>Anon leads her to a tank already occupied by the engineer and gunner
 
>they salute and stand up straight at the commanders arrival
 
"Show our friend her what this thing can do!
 
I'd cover your ears if I were you"
 
>the tank lets off a round , the shell explodes and impacts in the distance , a large explosion is seen leaving a large blast crater
 
>Anon laughs at the destruction the tank leaves
 
"The weapons of mankind are truly something to be feared, and this stuff
 
>he kicks the side of the tank
 
Isn't even our strongest weapon!"
 
"Let's move , we need to take the crystal empire"
 
"ALL UNITS , proceed 10 Klicks east and regroup until further command, Anon out"
 
>Anon steps into a armoured jeep
 
"Shall we? Uh...wait how are you gonna fit in here.."
 
>Anon pushes the soldier out of the drivers seat "I'm driving"
 
>the soldier hastily apologises "uh sorry sir I'll go with another squad sir"
 
Anon:" Yeah, no you're not. Have fun in the afterlife pal. You are unsuitable for the new reign."
 
>Anon shoots the soldier mercilessly
 
Anon:" Come on, get in here Nightmare Moon. Leave the prisoners though! Come on, what's the worst that can happen? They try to use the Elements of Harmony on you or something? What a joke."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Do no underestimate them my Liege. These Prisoners are known for constantly saving the land of Equestria time after time. If they see one moment of opportunity, they will take it, and our plans could be easily foiled. I do not want to risk the fall of a New Empire."
 
Anon:" Ugh, if you say so. Come on, get in. We'll take them. Maybe we can dispose of them when we get to the Castle."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Get in Prisoners!"
 
>She shoves Twilight and Celestia inside the Jeep and then enters herself right next to Anon
 
Nightmare Moon:" Alright, let us go, we will easily obliterate the crystal kingdom."
 
>When they get there the Shield is raised, preventing all evil from entering
 
Anon:" WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE CAN'T GET THROUGH?! GOD DAMN IT! THIS IS BULLSHIT! NIGHTMARE MOON, DO SOMETHING!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" The shield repels all evil, perhaps I can sneak in as Luna and take it down from the inside out. I will have to take the Prisoners with me in order for them to trust me."
 
Anon:" DO WHATEVER NEEDS TO BE DONE! WE WILL PAVE THIS PLACE DOWN TO THE GROUND!"
 
>Nightmare Moon transforms back into Luna
 
Luna:" Anon, why don't you appear as your good self, the shield will not detect your darkness and we can earn the trust of Cadence and Shining Armor, especially now that we have Twilight, his sister, here. We can take them down like that."
 
Anon:" Clever girl. Alright Moon, you're lucky I trust you."
 
>Anon transforms into his Alicorn form
 
Anon:" God I look like an idiot. First thing when I establish my new rule is that I'm getting rid of this form entirely. I'd rather be a fucking snail than this atrocious form.
 
Luna:" Alright, lets go together. And for the record, to a Mare, you look handsome my liege."
 
Anon:" I take pride in my Human form thank you very much. The longer I'm in this form, the more dead on the inside I am. Let's get this over with. I think my other half might try to pull something. I am more vulnerable to him in this form."
 
>The two enter the kingdom with Celestia and Twilight and are greeted by some of the royal guards
 
>They are taken to the castle immediately
 
>They are then greeted by Cadence and Shining Armor
 
Cadence:" Celesita! Twilight! Luna! I'm so glad to know you're alright! When Shining Armor and I heard the news about the downfall of the mainland of Equestria, we immediately upped our defenses."
 
Luna:" I see that. It is good to see you to Cadence. I trust your marriage has been running smoothly and your empire is still as strong as ever. I'm glad it's still in one piece."
 
Cadence:" You guessed right! Oh and Luna, who's the handsome Alicorn you have beside you? I've never seen him before." She looks at Anon and asks:" What's your name? Where are you from? Why are you here?"
 
>Anon forces a polite composure
 
"Oh well hello!! My name is Anon...just awful what's happening out there! What are those things? So well equipped and powerful...I'm surprised you haven't surrendered already... I mean clearly beings with that type of firepower are some sort of divine higher being!"
 
>Luna nudges him
 
"Ahem but of course any evil can be defeated through the magic of uh...
 
>Anon makes a wild guess
 
Love?"
 
"We'll I'm just visiting shall we say from far away , and I'm here to find some friends of mine a new home and maybe some gifts of course"
 
>Anon mutters under his breath
 
...yeah like the entire planet"
 
>a fighter jet does a bombing run but the ordnance lands harmlessly on force field
 
"Oh come on!!" He shouts indignantly
 
>everyone states at him awkwardly
 
"...that's some damn impressive magic you got there , sorry just had to shout that out heh...ugh..SO how is this field even generated?
 
>Shining Armor gives Anon a strange look before he proceeds
 
Shining Armor:" You see, The Crystal Empire can output powerful magic, depending on the mood of its citizens. Our citizens power the crystal heart every year to keep good magic flowing through all of Equestria. But it looks like it wasn't enough to stop Canterlot from falling. The pure magic of the Crystal Heart combined with Cadence and I's protection spell keep it from falling. The shield blocks out all evil of course so now that you're here, we know we're safe."
 
Cadence:" And don't forget about Love Shining Armor! Love is a great power in the Crystal Empire. The fact that I can make anyone fall in love with each other really does come as a useful skill because of it."
 
Anon:" Wow. Well that sounds really stupid if you ask me. You could just... You know what?! Fuck this! I'm already inside this shield! I don't need to fucking wear this disguise anymore!"
 
>Anon morphs back into his human form
 
>Everypony gasps at the sight of the risen human
 
>Anon points a gun towards Cadence
 
Anon:" Now you're gonna drop that fucking piece of shit shield for me or you die you candy ass pink shit! Nightmare Moon! Assist me in convincing her should she not believe I would do what I say"
 
>Nightmare Moon converses with Luna briefly
 
Nightmare Moon:" This is all out of hand! I do not know how much longer I can keep playing this charade until I have to hurt someone Luna!"
 
Luna:" We have no other choice! He isn't vulnerable yet. I have an idea but it might just be crazy enough to work."
 
>The two discuss the idea
 
Luna:" So we can take him to the Crystal Heart, and its positive power should be enough to make him vulnerable to the Element and hopefully Anon can begin to fight back against the dark power that controls him."
 
Nightmare Moon:" Good idea Luna. Lets do it."
 
>Luna morphs into Nightmare Moon
 
Nightmare Moon:" Princess Cadence And Prince Shining Armor. If you want to make it out of this alive, then listen to my demands!"
 
Anon:" Your demands?! Excuse me! I am the one who is trying to conquer everything in the name of humanity here!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" Would you stay quiet for one moment?! You are beginning to irritate me. Your vanity surpasses my own on a colossal scale. Your Ego is bigger than my moon! I have an idea you fool. I know what is going to work the best. After all who has lived in this world for over 1000 years? "
 
Anon:" This idea of yours better be worth it Nightmare Moon, because if it isn't, this bullet will greet your skull faster than you can realize what happened."
 
>Luna manages to gain enough strength to manifest herself as blue mist as if she were part of Nightmare Moon's mane
 
>In her mist form she tells Cadence and Shining Armor about the plan as Nightmare Moon yells to them and commands them
 
Nightmare Moon:" Thou shall drop this pesky shield of yours and thou shall take us to the Crystal heart, where we will fill it up with the blackest of magics. If you do not follow my commands, then you will be exterminated!"
 
>After hearing Luna's plan, the two agree with Nightmare Moon
 
Cadence:" You win Nightmare Moon, We will lower our shield. "
 
>After the shield is lowered Anon radios the command to attack with all forces
 
Anon:" My brethren, NOW IS THE TIME TO ATTACK! ATTACK IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY, IN THE NAME OF EARTH, IN THE NAME OF ME! YOUR NEW RULER!"
 
>The military charges full force causing a bloody battle between the royal guard and the Humans
 
Anon:" Now take me to the Crystal Heart of yours. IMMEDIATELY!"
 
>Anon fires his pistol in the air in anger to try to rush the Princess
 
>Cadance and Anon along with the others rush through the levels of the palace
 
 
>"current location is the palace all units, DO NOT FIRE ON THE PALACE , I REPEAT DO NOT FIRE ON THE PALACE...the rest however burn It to the ground "
 
>the voice on the other end of the radio hesitantly ask:
 
"And the civilians sir?"
 
>Anon responds "meh , kill em but let a few to run to hills...
 
...Dead men tell no tales"
 
>they come into a hallway and are greeted by two guards who are ready to attack Anon , unaware Cadance is taken hostage
 
>She shouts at them to stand down
 
>Anon laughs and walks up to the guard getting in his face
 
"That's right , stand down like the good little horse you are!" He mocks
 
>he stretches his hand
"UGHH! Thank god I'm not trapped in that horrible horse form! How the fuck do you people cope with no thumbs! It's moronic"
 
>a fighter jets roars over head and fires heavy explosive ordnance nearby rocking the ground , everyone but Anon jumps
 
>Anon gets in the guards face who looks at the carnage outside
 
>a bead of sweat rolls down his forehead
 
>Anon calmly but sadistically states "YEAH...that's the kind of power your fucking with here."
 
"What are you?!..." The guard questions
 
>Anon smirks "oh me? I'm just the harbinger of war, the bringer of death, Alexander the Great , ghengis khan, the caeser.
 
I. Am the culmination of humanity's greatest warriors , your race is nothing but a spec of dust beneath my boot!
 
We have waged war for millennia, this will be only be yet another victory for us.
 
>Anons glare hardens
 
And we have become exceedingly good at it."
 
>Anon pushes the guard out of the way
 
"NOW candy ass? Which way to the power core that runs this city , we have to be close by now"
 
"It's just through here!" She says distressed
 
>Anon laughs with evil glee at the closeness of total victory
 
>he walks past a mirror and stops , he looks into it and stops "Luna...are you there ...stop...me...him...controlled..."
 
>his mind comes back to evil anon, who in rage punches the mirror , smashing it completely , leaving his hand a bloody mess
 
> he screeches in anger at the broken mirror
 
"STAY THE FUCK OUT OF MY HEAD , LET ME ENJOY THIS WORLD , FORGET YOUR TRIAL , FORGET UOUR QUEST , THIS WAR IS MY PARADISE YOU MORALLY OBLIGATED FUCK!"
 
>An internal battle between Anon and Evil Anon ensues
 
Anon:" God damn it! I have been letting this happen for far too long! You are such a fucking prick! Killing innocent people? Declaring yourself the New Ruler of a forsaken empire?! You are the fool here."
 
EA:" You are such a pathetic weakling! Wasting your opportunity to rule the world for something as stupid as love? What kind of sap are you? Who needs love when you have power!"
 
Anon:" You idiot! You absent minded fool! Love is the greatest power! Love powers all! Without love, there would always be hatred! Darkness against Darkness never works in the end! It just all culminates into one big black hole! Do You know NOTHING about how our world was OBLITERATED by our evils?! We created horrible weapons of mass destruction! Mercilessly vaporizing all sentient life within miles with the use of one! Where is the humanity in that?! HUMANITY IS DEAD YOU FOOL! HUMANITY DIED WHEN ALL REGARDS FOR OTHER LIFE WENT WERE THROWN AWAY! YOU SAY YOU DO THIS FOR HUMANITY BUT YOU DO THIS FOR YOUR OWN PERSONAL CONQUEST, NOT HUMANITY! HUMANITY IS DEAD!"
 
EA:" You really think that eh? Humanity is dead? Let me break it to ya kid. IT WAS NEVER ALIVE TO BEGIN WITH! We always battled! We always had war! Our concept of war was a brilliant way to take things that we wanted! Human spirit was all about doing what you needed to do to get to the top! If you don't risk it all, then what is the point of your existence?! To be a mere follower living an average life?! Becoming a nameless face to those who really call the shots?! Humanity is about rising through the ranks to be able to wipe those without faces out!"
 
Anon:" What is the point of ruling when there is no one to rule?! You're gonna end up killing everyone! You'll sit on a lonely throne of corpses and remains!"
 
EA:" Better to have ruled and lost than to never have ruled."
 
>Anon begins to get furious with what his Evil Counterpart has said
 
Anon:" THATS IT! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! YOUR COMPLETE DISREGARD FOR HUMAN PRESERVATION ANGERS ME TO THE POINT OF BLOOD BOILING!"
 
>Anon punches his evil counterpart square in the face and continues to punch and kick him
 
EA:" Heh, you really think some punches and kicks will hurt me? What is this? Killer Instinct? Mortal Kombat? Street Fighter? You need to stop acting like a video game character. Now it's my turn."
 
>Evil Anon summons blades of darkness to help him
 
>He begins to stab Anon furiously, wounding Anon greatly
 
EA:" Have enough yet pleb?"
 
>Meanwhile, Luna and the others have been pushing Anon to the crystal heart
 
>Explosions of bombs and many bullets can be heard
 
>The scent of death is in the air
 
>Suddenly, A group of soldiers pop out and open fire on Anon and Luna and company
 
Luna:" NO! I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO HARM ANON!"
 
Soldier:" He's been a total prick to us, acting like he's some kind of king of the universe. He's gotta go. And so do you."
 
>The soldiers begin to open fire again and Celestia fires back a magical laser at them, dispensing them outside of the kingdom
 
Celestia:" Come Luna! We must get him to the Crystal Heart if we stand a chance!"
 
Twilight:" Yeah! We need to do this! Its now or never!"
 
Cadence:" Let's keep pushing on!"
 
>The group finally make it to the crystal heart
 
Luna:" Celestia, Cadence, Shining Armor, Twilight. You must go. This is something I must do on my own! Go protect the citizens! I will handle this!"
 
Celestia:" But Sister-"
 
Luna:" GO!"
 
>The inner war between Anon and Evil Anon wages on
 
Anon:" I have not had enough you sadistic and masochistic asshole!"
 
>Anon summons blades of light to better combat Evil Anon
 
>The two duel with their swords and magics of Light and Darkness
 
Anon:" But how are you able to cast magic?!"
 
EA:" Isn't it obvious? The spells that were cast on you 2 months ago still linger in your body. And I have access to it's power! I am darkness INCARNATE!"
 
>Then A huge light appears
 
>Rewind
 
Luna:" I must use my Element to free Anon from his darkness! I hope he is alright."
 
>Luna charges and uses the Element of Shining Darkness to Split Anon into two. The good side and the bad
 
>Back to Present
 
>Anon and Evil Anon face each other
 
>They are both in human form but Evil Anon looks like a Dark Demon
 
Anon:" What just happened?!"
 
EA:" Yeah what the fuck?! HOW ARE YOU OUT OF ME?! HOW AM I OUT OF YOU?!
 
>They both turn and see Luna
 
Anon:" Luna! Run! Evil Anon will get you! Just run!"
 
Nightmare Moon:" NOT IF I CAN HELP IT! DEMON! DARE LAY A HAND ON ME AND I WILL PUNISH YOU!"
 
EA:" My beef's not with you anyways. Yet. I've got an old score to settle with my good old pal here, Anonymous.
 
Anon:" Right. To the death then!"
 
EA:" You got that part right."
 
>The two begin to clash again, they both hold immense power, shaking the entire world every time their blades meet
 
>Anon fights with small, quick hits
 
>Evil Anon Fights using large, slow, and strong blows
 
>Eventually, Evil anon backs Anon into a corner
 
Evil Anon:" Say your prayers, because they will be your last!"
 
>Luna then charges in to protect Anon
 
Luna:" YOU SHALL NOT HURT HIM! I WILL NOT ALLOW IT!"
 
>Anon pushes Luna to the side as he rises
 
Anon:" Luna, this is my fight. I thank you for your help, but I must defeat my evil self in order to find an equilibrium. In order to find peace, I must win against my darkness."
 
>The two then begin to clash again as Luna backs away
 
>What seems like an hour passes of epic destruction and large clashes of Light vs Darkness
 
>Anon is severely injured and is unable to battle
 
Luna:" I must help him! I will share my strength with him!"
 
Evil Anon:" Oh that's cute."
 
>Luna runs over to Anon's unconscious body
 
Luna:" Anon! Anon please! You have to wake up!"
 
>Anon soon begins to regain consciousness
 
Anon:"Lu...Lu...Luna..."
 
Luna:" Anon! Don't worry! You will be alright! I promise!"
 
>She uses all the energy with her and the power within her element to heal Anon and boost his strength
 
>Anon rises and thanks Luna as he is feeling like his strength increased tenfold
 
Anon:" Time to meet your end! You will never exist again!"
 
Evil Anon:" What makes you think you can finish me? That stupid magic spell that Luna gave you? Whoppdie do your healed! Achievement Get! Congratulations! Now prepare to be annihilated."
 
>The two jump and clash their swords
 
>They are at a stalemate in the air, their strengths making them defy physics and stay levitated in the air
 
>Anon gives the final push and Evil Anon plummets to the ground
 
Evil Anon:" But how?! I had it all! Anger! Hate! Rage! All the necessary emotions that I needed I had! What went wrong?! How did you get so much power?!"
 
Anon:" You were a fool for underestimating the power of love and conviction. My deep love for Luna is my power! Elements or no Elements, my love for Luna remains deep within my heart! Although I can't feel it and neither can she, it is there. Love is my strength!"
 
Evil Anon:" How could this happen?! I was about to rule the world! I was going to be ruler of a gigantic empire!"
 
Anon:" You would have been ruler of ashes. You would have wiped this world out just like the humans did with earth. There is a reason why we are extinct in reality. Good riddance as well. Any last words?"
 
Evil Anon:" You know I would be cliche and say "I will have my revenge!" but its obvious that's not happening. So lets just say good job. You bested me fair and square. Good job. See ya never."
 
Anon:" Farewell to you"
 
>Anon obliterates his darkness and what remains returns to his heart and Anon becomes a whole being again
 
>Luna runs to Anon and hugs him in joy
 
Luna:" Oh Anon! I am so happy that you're alright!"
 
Anon:" It's good to be all me again. Thank you so much for what you did for me Luna."
 
>Mempharious and Maia come out both clapping slowly
 
Mempharious:" My my my, what a spectacle that was."
 
Maia:" Indeed. It was quite the show. I believe a congratulation is in order for the both of you."
 
Mempharious:" Right you are Sister. Congratulations you two. You have completed your trials. Your journey is over. The Elements are yours. Because you did such a commendable job passing through all your trials, You may each keep a small piece of the Elements of Passion for yourselves. Not the whole chunk, but a piece of the chunks. Do with them whatever you wish. They are yours. You must be separated again for just a short period of time though, in order to redeem them."
 
Maia:" Yes, now if Anon will come with me we can get that arranged."
 
Mempharious:" Princess Luna, follow me to claim what you so rightfully deserve."
 
>The two say goodbye and part one last time in order to claim what they have been searching for for a week straight
 
>Luna enters the special room where the Element is held
 
>The anniversary moon still shines proudly during the night and its rays beam through the natural cracks in the ceiling
 
Luna:" How long did that take? That felt like days!"
 
Mempharious:" In reality, all your trials collectively took 1 hour"
 
Luna:" Wow, that is truly amazing!"
 
Mempharious:" Indeed, time manipulation is an amazing thing."
 
>Meanwhile at the North Temple
 
Maia:" Claim your prize Prince Anonymous, you deserve it."
 
>As Luna and Anon get near the elements they sense each other and they count down together
 
>3,2,1
 
>The Royal Couple has at last claimed the elements of Passion and are now teleported to each other with it's magic
 
Luna:" Anon! I love you! We finally did it!"
 
Anon:" I love you to Luna! Together again at last!"
 
Luna:" It's finally over Anon! We can finally go home! We can finally see our friends again! We can finally be in love again!"
 
>Tears of joy start to flow from Luna's eyes
 
Luna:"We are finally together again! After what felt like an eternity, we have our love again, My sweet Prince."
 
Anon:" Yes we do, My Darling Luna"
 
>Anon kisses Luna with unparalleled amounts of passion and euphoria
 
Anon:" I love you Luna! I love you more than I can possibly ever describe to you in words, my actions might not even be enough to truly describe the love I have for you. You are the most amazing pony in the world and I am so happy to be with you!"
 
Luna:" Me too Anon! It has been too long since I felt like this! That quest was definitely worth all the effort! Our love is restored if not increased tenfold!"
 
>Luna Kisses Anon back with the same kind of passion and love he kissed her with
 
Luna:" Come, let us fly home together!"
 
Anon:" How about a race? Just like old times?"
 
Luna:" You're on!"
 
>The two playfully race home and zip past the mountains, fly above the Southwood Castle, and wave hello and goodbye to the people of the South Colony
 
>They finally arrive at the balcony outside Luna's room
 
>Celestia and the others are all there to welcome them back home
 
Celestia:" Brother! Sister! Welcome back home! We all missed you so much!"
 
Anon:" And it's great to be back! We missed you guys to!"
 
Luna:" My heart is filled with true happiness to see you all here! Thank you all for being here to welcome us back! It truly touches my heart to know so many people care about us!"
 
Celestia:" Luna, would you mind re-doing the night sky for us all? We would love to see your glorious night sky again!"
 
Luna:" Only if Anon helps me!"
 
Anon:" It would be my pleasure my Sweet Princess!"
 
>The two re-raise their beautiful anniversary moon and return back to their room
 
Celestia:" A celebration is in order for tomorrow! Now I do believe you two have a lot of lost time you should catch up on, so go on and embrace each other the way you have wanted to for a long time now!"
 
Luna:" Thank you sister! Thank you everypony for this wonderful return home! And there are certainly a lot of things I want to do with Anon tonight!"
 
Anon:" And there is so much I want to do with Luna tonight! Good night everypony!"
 
>Celestia and company exit the room and leave the Royal Couple to each other
 
Anon:" Luna, it's so great to be back!"
 
Luna:" How about less talking and more Loving!"
 
>Luna playfully pounces on Anon and pushes him onto the bed
 
>The couple begin to snuggle in passion
 
>They then kiss and stare into each others eyes with burning desire for one another
 
Luna:" Anon... I've wanted to ask you to do this one thing with me ever since we got married... but I've always been too shy to ask."
 
Anon:" What is it Luna, You know I will do anything for you my darling!"
 
>Luna begins to blush an extremely bright shade of red
 
Luna:" Make love to me... I always wanted you Anon. I believe it would be a perfect way to celebrate our Two month anniversary"
 
>Anon begins to blush as he is surprised that Luna made the move
 
Anon:" Luna... I never thought you would ask me this... the truth is... I always wanted to make love to you to. My love for you knows no bounds Luna. For you, I will do anything My Darling Luna. "
 
Luna:" Anon... I'm speechless... I don't know what to say... I just feel so happy that you want to embrace me that way... I love you Anon, more than words or any actions could ever even come close to describing."
 
Anon:" Luna, my love for you is purely indescribable. No words exist that can truly express my deep love for you."
 
>The two stare each other with desire and passion burning in their eyes
 
>They kiss passionately and gently as Anon slowly leans on to Luna
 
>Anon now lies on top of Luna wrapping his arms around her as they kiss
 
>Luna does the same, holding Anon tightly in her arms and keeping him close to her
 
Luna whispers to Anon:" Take me Anon, please."
 
>Anon listens to her plea and he begins to slowly and gently enter her
 
>Luna grimaces in pain at first but then the smile of love returns to her face as she rubs her face against Anon's
 
>Anon and Luna embrace each other in true passion
 
>They explore each other all night
 
>The physical relationship they establish with each other strengthens their unbreakable bond
 
>They continue to embrace each other throughout the night
 
>Celestia has the courtesy to lower Luna's moon for her and raise the sun on a brand new day
 
>Soon the two finally reach their climax in unison
 
>The sun shines through the glass windows as Luna and Anon continue to snuggle
 
Luna:" Anon, that was perfect. It was truly everything I had dreamed it would be if not better. Thank you for such an amazing night My sweet Prince."
 
Anon:" Luna, I agree. That was truly the most perfect night of our lives. Thank you as well for the amazing night that we shared together My Darling Luna."
 
>The two kiss each other one last time and fall asleep in each other's arms
 
>The two begin to have a sweet dream together as they lie in bed together
 
>The two lovers begin to dream together like they used to always do
 
Anon:" Luna! Oh it is just so great to see you. Isn't the dream realm wonderful?"
 
Luna:" It truly is wonderful Anon, but not as wonderful as you My Sweet Prince."
 
Anon:" Hey, I thought I was supposed to be the guy who did the flattering"
 
>The two laugh at the silly joke just like old times
 
Luna:" You know Anon, you really have no idea how much I am glad about what we did tonight. It means a lot to me that you and I really expressed our love in new ways."
 
Anon:" Me too Luna, it was better than anything. It was the most perfect moment in my life. And I hope to have a lot more perfect moments in the future with you"
 
Luna:" I do too Anon. I loved every single moment of our love and I never want our love to end again."
 
Anon:" Neither do I My Princess."
 
Luna:" Maybe we can do what we did last night more often? It felt so nice being embraced by you in such a wondrous way and the feeling I felt in my heart was like no other."
 
Anon:" I'd be glad to do it more with you Luna. My heart was burning with passion and desire for you, and its demands were finally fulfilled."
 
Luna smiles and kisses Anon cheerfully
 
Luna:" Excellent!"
 
Anon:" Hey Luna, since this is a dream and all, can we go to the Canterlot Gardens, I really like our spot there, and I miss being there with you."
 
Luna:" Why of course Anon, I'd be more than happy to go to my favorite spot in all of Equestria with my favorite pony in all of the world."
 
>The two walk slowly from their room in the dream realm to the Canterlot Gardens, where they relax with each other, and simply enjoy each other's company.
 
Anon:" So big day ahead of us eh? A huge welcome back party sounds really nice don't you think?"
 
Luna:" It does sound really fun! I can't wait to see everyone again. They were so kind to let us love each other in peace."
 
>The two continue to relax with each other in their dreams
 
>Eventually they wake up at about noon and go to visit Celesita
 
>They walk through the large doorway leading into the Throne room where Celestia resides during the day
 
Luna:" Celestia!"
 
Celestia:" Luna! It's great to finally see you again! I trust you two slept well, because there will be a whole celebration for your return! All of Equestria has been invited to attend! Then of course we will have a private after-party with just you, me, and all your friends."
 
Anon:" Wait a minute, did you say a Celebration for all of Equestria to attend?! Isn't that a bit too much?!"
 
Celestia:" Not at all Brother. The entire kingdom missed its Prince and Princess of the night! The night was truly missing a certain kind of magic. And now that magic is back. It was truly hard for me to keep the day and night going as it was the first time in years that I have had to do that. Your night is much better than mine."
 
Luna:" This is a bit overwhelming Sister, I had no idea that so many people cared for our return!"
 
Celestia:" Indeed the entire Kingdom missed you both. I suggest going to Rarity to get your Gala outfits re-tailored and fixed for obvious reasons."
 
Anon:" Alright Sis, we'll do that. See you at the Celebration!"
 
Celestia:" See you then!"
 
>Luna and Anon fetch their garments and fly to Ponyville to greet Rarity
 
Anon:" I do wonder how Rarity's been, it's been forever since we last talked to her."
 
Luna:" Knowing Rarity, she has probably been doing well for herself."
 
>Anon knocks on the door
 
Anon:" Rarity, are you home? It's me Anon, Luna is here to, we have a request to make of you."
 
>Sweetie Belle opens the door for Luna And Anon
 
Sweetie Belle:" I'm sorry Prince Anon and Princess Luna, Rarity is in the middle of a shower, but you're welcome to stay until she's done!"
 
Anon:" Alright, that sounds good. We wont be here for long though, we don't want to be a bother."
 
Sweetie Belle:" How could you be a bother?! You're the royal couple of the night! Oh and Prince Anon, you might not remember but I want to apologize for what my friend Scootaloo said to you on the day you came to the school. I felt so bad."
 
Anon:" Sweetie Belle, just call me Anon. You don't have to act so uptight around me or Luna. Also, that thing is all in the past now, I might have over-reacted a bit."
 
Luna:" Indeed Sweetie Belle, there's no need to be so formal, we are good friends of your sister. How long has she been in the shower for?"
 
Sweetie Belle:" She's been in there for an hour, she's taking one of her "Beauty Showers"
 
Anon:" My god. She reminds me of my sister so much. She took showers that seemed to last years. I swear that girl would say she would be ready in 5 minutes but she in turn would take what felt like an eternity. Funny to see how similar our two worlds really are."
 
Luna:" Well I do hope she finishes soon, we need our garments altered and repaired for the Celebration today."
 
Sweetie Belle:" Oh right! There's gonna be a huge celebration about your return! I'm so glad you two made it back together!"
 
Luna:" Trust me Sweetie, we are to."
 
>Luna looks at Anon and smiles and Anon returns the smile
 
Sweetie Belle:" Come on, lets sit in the living room and we can wait for Rarity there!"
 
>The two follow Sweetie to the living room
 
>Sweetie Brings them tea to drink
 
>They sit for a while and Rarity finally comes out of the bathroom as the steam from the hot shower fills the house
 
>Rarity comes out wearing her iconic bathrobe
 
Rarity:"Sweetie Belle, can you do me a favor and- OH MY LORD! Prince Anon! Princess Luna! I am so sorry! I didn't know you were coming! I didn't know you would be coming! I would have prepared some amazing things for you! I am so sorry! Please forgive me!"
 
>Rarity spazzes out and starts to use her magic like crazy
 
>She begins to re organize everything to make it twice as neat
 
Rarity:" This carpet is off by a centimeter! It simply wont do! I must correct it!"
 
>She obsesses over every little minute detail
 
>Anon and Luna sit there, concerned over Rarity's obsessive compulsion with the littlest of things
 
Anon:" Uh, Rarity, are you alright? You don't need to do this all for us, we're friends remember?"
 
Rarity:" Oh I am quite alright but this room is not! Everything must be in tip top shape in the presence of Royalty! Please excuse my appearance, as I had come out of the shower."
 
>Rarity continues "fixing" the room
 
>Sweetie Belle assists her sister in hopes it will calm her down
 
Rarity:" Sweetie Belle, thank you but please do not assist me, this was my mistake!"
 
>Luna begins to have enough of Rarity acting like a complete spaz
 
Luna:" Rarity! Stop at once!" She says in the royal canterlot voice "Please, there is no need to be so formal, your dwelling is in amazing shape, there is no need to be so worried."
 
Rarity:" Oh... I am ever so truly sorry Princess Luna. Please forgive me for my mistakes."
 
Luna:" Rarity, I'm your friend, please don't be so formal with me. Call me Luna."
 
Anon:" And remember to call me Anon as well."
 
Luna:" Come sit with us, share a cup of tea."
 
Rarity:" Alright, I will. Thank you Luna and thank you as well Anon."
 
>Rarity calms down as she drinks the tea with Anon and Luna
 
>Some time and small talk passes
 
Anon:" So Rarity, we came here to ask a favor of you."
 
Rarity:" What is it? I will gladly fulfill any request you give me!"
 
Luna:" We need our Gala Garments altered and repaired, if it would not be too much of a hassle"
 
Rarity:" My word, I still remember that night. An interesting night to say the least. "
 
Anon:" Trust me, Luna and I remember well to. Now if you may, can you please repair our garments for the Celebration?"
 
>Rarity spits out her tea
 
Rarity:" Can I repair your garments you ask? Pish posh! I can not only do that but make them better than they once were!"
 
Luna:" Wonderful! Thank you so much Rarity! You have our gratitude."
 
Anon:" Yeah Rarity, that sounds great, we really do owe you one."
 
Rairty:" Think nothing of it! Come back within an hour! I promise they will be ready and better than they ever were!"
 
Luna:" Alright, Good bye Rarity! We shall see you soon!"
 
Anon:" See you later Rarity!"
 
>The two exit with smiles on their faces
 
Luna:" It certainly was nice to see Rarity again, I'm glad she's doing well for herself."
 
Anon:" Yeah, but her obsession over minute details does still concern me, but I suppose its a part of who she is."
 
Luna:" Indeed, shall we visit Twilight for the mean time? We haven't had a chance to talk to her in a while either."
 
Anon:" We haven't really talked to any of our friends privately in a while, I am really conflicted on who to go to."
 
Luna:" Hm, we should visit Twilight first and have her tag along as we visit Pinkie's to see how she wants to do the after party, then we can all go to Celestia and enjoy some good time together."
 
Anon:" Sounds like a plan my dear, we're off to Twilight's then!"
 
>The two walk leisurely walk through PonyVille holding each other's hooves
 
>They eventually arrive at Twilight's house
 
>Anon knocks on the door
 
Anon:" Hey Twilight, its Anon and Luna, can we come in and just chat?"
 
Twilight:" Oh sure! Give me a moment to get to the door!"
 
>Twilight opens the door
 
Twilight:" Anon! Luna! Please come in! So good to see you two together again!"
 
Luna:" Good to see you as well Twilight! It has been too long! I heard that you were the one keeping my sister company the nights Anon and I were away. Thank you for keeping her company, I truly appreciate it. I'm sure she missed Anon and I always roaming the castle together"
 
Twilight:" Oh you have no idea, Celestia was always thinking of you and Anon. She always contemplated you and your past. She always tells me about the remorse she has for banishing her one and only sister for 1000 years. You two were always on her mind and she was hoping that you would make it out alright, and I am really glad you did and I'm sure Celestia is to."
 
Luna:" Indeed she does, I missed her as well. I missed you also Twilight, you are such a great friend."
 
Anon:" Yeah Twilight seriously, you're one of my best friends here in Equestria. I haven't exactly made many friends throughout my time here in Equestria."
 
Twilight:" Aww thank you! You have no idea how much this means to me! You know I used to think friendship wasn't important at all but then I met Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie, and Fluttershy. If it weren't for them I have no clue where we would be. I have no clue what would have happened to Equestria. Maybe Nightmare Moon would have managed to actually create her eternal night. My friendship with them has really been tested over time. I am so glad to have them with me."
 
Luna:" I still owe you a massive debt for freeing me from Nightmare Moon's spell a few years back when I had returned from banishment. If it weren't for you and your friends, I more likely than not would not have been freed from Nightmare Moon's grasp and I would still suffer worse than I have before. Twilight you're the best friend I have."
 
Twilight:" Princess Luna, you're one of my best friends to! Let's not dwell too much into the past though, it's behind us! We don't need to be sad or anything, lets just be happy that we are the friends we are today."
 
Anon:" Luna, I honestly am so happy I met you when I did, it really seemed like you needed my help and we finally got rid of the real evil part of Nightmare Moon. Through our love and through our friendships, we truly conquered all."
 
>Small talk continues for a few minutes
 
Anon:" Hey Twilight, we want to go over to Pinkie's to see how the after party for the celebration is going, wanna come with us? I'd really like it if you did."
 
Luna:" Please do Twilight. I will be most grateful."
 
Twilight:" Aww, sure." She says with a smile
 
>The trio depart as they head over to Pinkie's house
 
Luna:" So Twilight, how has Pinkie been doing for herself?"
 
Twilight:" Pinkie's been doing well. She's still the same spontaneously fun pony you remember."
 
Luna:" Ah yes, I do remember how light-hearted and fun she is. I remember when I came here to Ponyville expecting to turn Nightmare Night into a glorious feast, and she was always the one upsetting me and the villagers. She had made me very sad and I ended up cancelling Nightmare Night for a while, but I am sincerely grateful that she and I are now friends. She is a very nice pony."
 
Twilight:" It's interesting to see how the relationship between you two changed. You two used to not see eye to eye, but over time your friendship really evolved! I'm so happy we're all friends."
 
Anon:" I remember when I came to Pinkie about the Pre-Gala party before Luna and I were married. She was incredibly spazzy but she grew on me quickly. She's really a one of a kind pony."
 
Twilight:" Yeah, Pinkie's unique. But we all still love her for who she is. I can't even imagine how our life would be without her."
 
>The trio eventually arrive at Pinkie Pie's
 
Anon:" Yeah, I'll just knock on the door. Hopefully she's around."
 
Twilight:" Alright, I can only imagine how she must think about the celebration after-party though. She must be pretty excited and probably bursting with glee!"
 
Luna:" That's probably true, knowing Pinkie, parties are her specialty."
 
>Anon knocks on the door
 
Pinkie:" Who is it?!" She screams from deep within the abode
 
Luna:" Tis we, The Royal Couple and Princess Twilight! May we come in Pinkie Pie?"
 
Pinkie:" Sure! Come on in! I'm just busy with the party planning!"
 
Anon:" God I'm worried to see what kind of mess this place is in. Knowing Pinkie, she can get a bit obsessive with parties."
 
>The trio enter and see Pinkie running all over the place
 
Anon:" Jesus Christ Pinkie, I know you get all excited for parties, but this is a bit over doing it."
 
Pinkie:" Anon! Luna! You're back! You're back! You're Back!"
 
>Pinkie proceeds to jump onto Anon and Luna in excitement
 
Pinkie:" I'm so happy to see your faces again! How was the quest?! Was it daring? Was it fun? Was it cool? Tell me! Tell me!"
 
Luna:" Pinkie, please calm down. We will tell you in due time, if you don't mind."
 
Pinkie:" Awww, pleaaasseee?"
 
Anon:" Pinkie come on, don't you have a party to organize?"
 
Pinkie:" Oh right! Sorry about that! I hope you can forgive me. But not as much as I hope you enjoy my party! Here, let me show you how it's gonna look!"
 
>Pinkie takes them to the room she made that looks exactly like the private room in the Castle where the party will be held
 
>Typical party favors are present
 
>The whole room has that certain Pinkie "touch" to it
 
>There are tons of pictures hung up that depict loving moments in Anon and Luna's time together
 
Anon:" Pinkie! Oh my god! This is great!"
 
Twilight:" Pinkie, I still don't even know how you do any of this. Logical or not, it still is an amazing job you did here!"
 
Luna:" Indeed! This shall be the best after-party ever!"
 
Pinkie:" Yay! I'm so glad you all like it!"
 
>They pass the time with small talk
 
>Spike walks in the room and informs Luna and Anon that their garments will not be ready for another couple of hours
 
Anon:" Tell her it's no problem, we don't mind waiting for her perfection."
 
Luna:" Her work is truly worth any wait."
 
Anon:" Hey Twilight, Pinkie, would you like to come with Luna and I to the castle? We want to spend some time with Celestia and I was wondering if you wanted to tag along."
 
Luna:" It would be great if you could both come, we can spend time together and relax."
 
Twilight:" Well I've already gotten this far with you two, I'll gladly go see Celestia with you!"
 
Pinkie:" Hmmm, well sure! I guess I can take time off of the party planning since you all love it so much!"
 
Anon:" Alright, it's settled then. Luna my dear, if you would please call in the chariot."
 
Luna:" Why of course Anon!"
 
>Luna calls in the chariot and the four of them get on and ride to Canterlot
 
>The group walks to greet Celestia as it is a slow day and there is not much to do
 
Luna:" Sister! Anon and I have returned with Twilight and Pinkie! I was hoping to share some good times with us all! Is that alright?"
 
Celestia:" Why of course!" She says with a smile "How have you all been?"
 
Twilight:" I've been good! It was nice to be able to relax at home for the first night in a while."
 
Pinkie:" I'm just super excited for the party!"
 
Twilight:" We know Pinkie, we know."
 
>They all laugh a little
 
Luna:" Celestia, it's just so good to be back. It felt like I haven't been home in a thousand years and now that I'm back all I want to do is be with my friends and family."
 
Celestia:" Well its good to see you all! Pinkie, How is the party going in the first place?"
 
Pinkie:" According to Twilight, Luna, and Anon, it's great!"
 
Celestia:" Great! Luna, how about yours and Anon's garments. Has Rarity repaired them yet?"
 
Luna:"She wanted to spend some extra time on them, she said she would be done in about an hour from now."
 
Celestia:" Excellent!"
 
>The five of them begin to have small talk and enjoy each other's company
 
>Time continues to pass by when Luna asks Celestia a question
 
Luna:" Celestia, out of curiosity, pray tell what will the Celebration be named?"
 
Celestia:" You can name it whatever you want Luna, it is your celebration after all"
 
Luna:" Anon, shall we decide a name together?"
 
Anon:" Why sure, my dear Luna."
 
>The two begin to brainstorm as Pinkie begins to shout out recommendations
 
Luna:" I propose the name "The Royal Love Festival"
 
Anon:" Hm interesting name my Princess, what does everyone else think about it?"
 
>Everyone nodded their heads in a lukewarm attitude
 
Luna:" I suppose that perhaps it isn't the best name for such a Celebration. "
 
Anon:" How about The Shining Night of Love Celebration?"
 
Luna:" Perhaps that could work ; who knew naming things could be so difficult?"
 
Anon:" I sure as hell didn't. Then again most things are already named and there wasn't a need for me to name anything."
 
>Anon and Luna continue to brainstorm the naming of the Celebration, with everyone pitching in their own suggestions
 
>After about half an hour the couple say the name they want in unison
 
Anon and Luna:" The Festival of the Royal Return!"
 
Celestia:" Truly an amazing name! I love it!"
 
Twilight:" Yeah! It's great! I'm surprised you were both thinking the same thing!"
 
Pinkie:" The best name ever!!!!"
 
>They all smile
 
>Anon and Luna hug and give a short kiss to each other
 
Anon:" I really love the name, Luna."
 
Luna:" I do aswell Anon."
 
Celestia:" Well it's a good thing you do because this will be a yearly Celebration!"
 
>Everyone in the room is shocked
 
Luna:" Sister, isn't that over-doing it a tad?"
 
Celestia:" Nonsense! The entire kingdom had missed you for an entire week straight! Your return is one of the most Euphoric events in our history!"
 
Anon:" Well thank you Celestia, it means a lot more to us than you know. We never even expected the warm welcome you gave us the moment we came back when we got the elements."
 
Luna:" Sister, it truly is amazing how much love you have shown to us, you have my undying gratitude"
 
>Celestia begins to tear up
 
Celestia:" Oh you two, come here!"
 
>Celestia pulls Anon and Luna towards her and they partake in a group hug
 
>Some time passes again
 
Anon:" Well it's about time to get the garments for the Celebration. I'll go over to Rarity's and get them. I must get going."
 
Twilight:" But why? Can't Rarity just come up here? She's gonna be at the celebration anyway isn't she?"
 
Anon:" True, but I can't let her make the trip alone."
 
Luna:" And I wont let you go without me. You have not the slightest idea of how much I despise the thought of having to let you go anywhere without me. Not to seem obsessed but I worry about losing you too much Anon. I am extremely uncomfortable when you and I aren't in the same room. And besides, Rarity would need both of us, it would simply be inconsiderate to not have the both of us."
 
Anon:" I can't argue with that logic. Let's go together then. Goodbye everyone, we'll be back shortly." He says with a smirk
 
Twilight:" See you soon!"
 
Pinkie:" See you at the party!"
 
Celestia:" Travel safely! I'll see you soon!"
 
>And with that said the two walk towards the balcony and take off for Ponyville
 
>Anon and Luna fly to Rarity's boutique
 
>They race through the bright sky and eventually arrive at Rarity's
 
Anon:" Alright I'll knock."
 
>Anon knocks on the door
 
Anon:" Rarity, you in there? Everything alright? Can we come in?"
 
Rarity:" Yes, yes, do come in! I believe you will be astonished with the results!"
 
>Anon and Luna enter
 
Luna:" Rarity, good to see you!"
 
Rarity:" Good to see you to! Now come you must see your garments!"
 
Luna:" Knowing that this is your expertise, I'm sure they'll look absolutely extravagant."
 
Anon:" I know you've probably done even better than last time Rarity. And the tuxedo you made me the first time was just great."
 
Rarity:" Yes,yes, I'm 100% sure you will love them!"
 
>Rarity leads the way to their garments
 
>Anon's and Luna's jaws drop in awe at the absolute magnificence of their new garments
 
Luna:" Why... Rarity, I had no idea you were capable of something so spectacular in such a short amount of time... Wow!"
 
Anon:" Rarity, these are just amazing! I honestly can't say I expected this from you given the time you had to do this."
 
Rarity:" Believe me, it was quite the challenge. I do apologize for the delay, I just wanted to make sure they were elegant enough to be worn by such amazing ponies."
 
Luna:" Rarity, I truly appreciate this, if there is anything I can do to make it up to you, please do tell."
 
Rarity:" Why all I ask is that you wear these garments with pride and elegance! I do not need anything else."
 
Anon:" Come on Rarity, there has to be something!"
 
Luna:" Surely, there must be something you desire that we can give to you to show our thanks!"
 
Rarity:" Nonsense! There isn't anything I need! Please just enjoy your garments!"
 
Anon:" I can see now why you're the element of generosity"
 
Rarity:" Well, I do not want to seem vain, but I must say, many ponies have said I am kind and generous. So I guess it must be true then."
 
Anon:" Alright, we have a celebration to do, come with us Rarity, Twilight, Pinkie, and Celestia are all having a conversation without us. We all gathered for a quick little get-together before the celebration and of course we want you to stay for the after-party."
 
Rarity:" Oh I'd be delighted to join you! Thank you for the invitation! Let us go! I'll get us train tickets!"
 
Luna:" No train tickets are necessary, I can simply summon the chariot, it's faster anyways."
 
Rarity:" Well, if you insist."
 
Luna:" Oh, why of course we do!"
 
>Luna summons the chariot and the three ride to Canterlot
 
Celestia:" Rarity! Good to see you again! I must say, the outfits you designed for Luna and Anon are simply wonderful!"
 
Twilight:" Wow! Rarity! I had no idea you could make these so fast! This has to be your best work yet!"
 
Rarity:" I suppose I work well under pressure, after all it is for the royal couple of the night! I am so glad you all like it!"
 
Anon:" It's really comfortable to Rarity! I'm surprised you got my size just right! And the space you made for my wings feels so good its ridiculous."
 
Luna:" My dress is truly most elegant Rarity! You have truly outdone yourself! Have you ever thought of becoming Royal Dress Maker?"
 
Rarity:" Royal... Dress...Maker?!"
 
>Rarity faints in excitement
 
Anon:" Well somepony's gonna have to wake her up. It's not gonna be me."
 
Twilight:" Just tell her her boutique's on fire"
 
Rarity:" MY BOUTIQUE IS ON FIRE?!"
 
Anon:" I see your point Twilight. No Rarity, there is no fire, we just had to get you up."
 
Rarity:" I can't believe I fall for that one everytime!"
 
Luna:" Yes, yes we know. It's alright though."
 
>The group continues to talk to each other, sharing anecdotes, and doing all sorts of bonding
 
>The time finally arrives for the Celebration to start
 
>Rainbow Dash comes to Luna
 
RD:" Hey Luna! Can I please do a sonic rainboom for you? I so want this thing to be the coolest celebration ever! Please, can you let me do it? Please?!"
 
Luna:" If you insist, you may preform one when the time is right, Rainbow Dash. I love your sonic rainboom and I can't wait to see it!"
 
RD:" OH YEAH!!! Trust me, you're gonna love it!"
 
Celestia:" Twilight, Pinkie, Rairty, Rainbow Dash, it's about time for the Celebration to start, get to your spots."
 
Twilight:" Alright, lets go! Come on girls! We have a celebration to attend!"
 
>The four girls go to their places
 
Celestia:" Well you two, are you ready for your big celebration?"
 
Luna:" I must admit, I am a bit nervous as I do not frequently appear in front of as many citizens as you do Sister."
 
Anon:" I'm a bit nervous, but I'm sure as long as I'm with Luna, I'll be fine" Anon says with a smile
 
Celestia:" Well come on you two! There's a whole crowd waiting for you outside!"
 
>Celestia goes outside to introduce the two
 
Celestia:" Mares and Colts, we are gathered here today to celebrate the return of my Sister, Princess Luna, and my Brother, Prince Anon. They had gone on a very perilous journey to regain something that was lost to them a month ago. They have defeated evils that not even I could eliminate. It is with a warm and happy heart that I welcome back my Brother and Sister."
 
>The whole crowd cheers in excitement
 
Anon:" Ready to go Luna?"
 
Luna:" I thought you would never ask Anon."
 
Anon:" Then let's do this together."
 
>The Royal Couple of the Night walks through the open doors onto the balcony to join their sister
 
>Rainbow Dash takes off and preforms a sonic rainboom to hype up their appearance
 
>The crowd begins to roar in ecstasy
 
>Twilight and her friends then rise and surround Anon and Luna
 
Celestia:" Do you have anything to say Luna? How about you Anon?"
 
Luna:" I have a few words I would like to speak."
 
Celestia:" Then go right ahead."
 
Luna:" Dearest Citizens, I am ever so happy to have returned to Equestria to see all of your smiling, happy faces. I remember times when we were all not so friendly with each other, I was shunned, I was feared. I sought your admiration and love, but most of you had turned away. Today, I am very happy to see that has all changed. I am so happy you all see me as the Princess I am, instead of the evil creature I used to be. Thank you all for this wonderful celebration."
 
>The crowd yells again with joy
 
Celestia:" Anon, do you have anything you would like to say?"
 
Anon:" I believe I do. My citizens of Equestria, I remember when I first came here a mere two months ago. I was a creature none of you had seen before. Many of you were curious to find out what I was, but never bothered to learn Who I was. Princess Luna was different though. She saw something in me, and well now look where we are.
 
We're a happily married couple that rules over the night. Some of the most amazing times of my life were spent here in Equestria and especially with Princess Luna. If it wasn't for her, I don't know what would have happened to me by now. I have an eternal gratitude to my wife and to my sister for all they have done for me. I have eternal gratitude to the Northern Colony that had housed me while I was on my quest. I thank Hale, the pony in a village further to the north, who had helped me gain back my health. I thank everyone who had assisted me on my quest. I thank all of Equestria for being so welcoming to me. I am glad to be back at last. It's good to be home."
 
>The crowd cheers and roars with extreme euphoria
 
>The celebration is then taken into its own hands to enjoy the festival
 
>Anon,Luna, Celestia, Twilight, And the rest of her friends go inside to the private room where the after party is held
 
Anon:" Well that was something eh?"
 
Celestia:" There were more ponies there than even I had expected! It seems like your kingdom really did miss you. But I missed you two more than anyone, you're my family. I'd hate to ever lose you two."
 
Anon:" Trust me Celestia, I'd hate to be gone. I'd hate to lose you or in fact anyone of my friends here. I'd especially hate to lose Luna. I wont be able to be the same without her."
 
Luna:" And I can't stand losing you. I lost you once the day of the Gala, and I'm not going to lose you again. I want to be together with you, forever."
 
Celestia:" I'm sure you two will never be apart again. Your love was said to be 10 times stronger than Cadance's own love for Shining Armor! Without you, we would have never defeated Chrysalis, and she would most certainly have taken over the kingdom.
 
Twilight:" We're all still grateful for the sacrifice you made, but hey at least you got what you gave up back!"
 
>Celestia, Anon, Luna, Twilight, Rarity, and the others enjoy the after party and have a lot of fun
 
>Timeskip
 
>The time to raise the moon is slowly approaching
 
>Anon has an announcement he would like to say before they go
 
Anon:" Alright everypony, I have a big announcement to make."
 
Twilight:" What is it Anon?"
 
Celestia:" Please do tell us."
 
Anon:" Well I wouldn't say I have an announcement and then not announce it."
 
Twilight:" Good point."
 
Anon:" Alright well my announcement is that I am changing my name. Anonymous is a name given to me by the humans. I am no longer part of their world and do not ever intend to be again. The humans are gone. And I'm no human, I'm an Alicorn in the amazing kingdom of Equestria. From now on, please do call me, Noctis."
 
>Everyone in the room gasps in shock
 
Rainbow Dash:" Talk about dropping the bomb! That is huge! Why tell us now though?"
 
Noctis:" Because you're my friends. And I believe my friends and family should know first before anyone else."
 
Luna:" Why the name Noctis? I love the name my dear, but why choose that one?"
 
Noctis:" In an ancient human language called latin, Noctis means night. Interestingly enough Luna means Moon. I thought it would be the name that would best suit me.
 
Luna:"That name does suit you well my sweet prince, but you'll always be my Noctis no matter what. What a wonderful name."
 
Celestia:" While it will take some getting used to, I love the name. Clever choice. After all you are the prince of the night , married to none other than my sister Luna, princess of the night. "
 
Noctis:" Well thanks. It's about time to raise the moon though, Celestia, mind lowering the sun?"
 
Celestia:" With pleasure Noctis."
 
>The three of them go out to do what they must
 
>Celestia Lowers her Sun
 
Luna:" Are you ready? I have a surprise for you tonight my love."
 
Noctis:" I do love surprises, especially when they come from the mare I love more than anything."
 
Luna:" Then be prepared to be blown away."
 
>As they raise the moon, Luna arranges the stars into two large constellations
 
>One constellation is of Luna and the other is Anon
 
>The night sky immortalizes them as they hear the Equestrian citizens look up and react in awe
 
Noctis:" Luna... Wow! Two amazing nights in a row! This is such a wonderful surprise! The Stars glow with such energy and the moon looks as enchanting as ever!"
 
Luna:" I'm glad you like it Noctis. Come, we have Royal duties to attend to. After all I'm sure there must be many citizens who want to see us up close and send their regards to us."
 
Noctis:" Good point Luna. Let's go."
 
>The two head towards the throne room as they say good night to Celestia
 
Noctis:" We have a long night ahead of us don't we?"
 
Luna:" We might, but as long as I spend it with you, I'm not complaining."
 
>The two smile at each other and sit on their thrones awaiting citizens to come in to talk to them
 
>After a few hours, the two grow tired in signing autographs and showing their honest appreciation for the public's admiration of them
 
>Right before they close the doors one more pony comes through to meet the two
 
Noctis:" Who are you citizen? Why are you covered with snow?"
 
Luna:" Please citizen, identify yourself."
 
>The citizen pulls down his hood and reveals his identity
 
Noctis:" Hale! My word! I thought I'd never see you again!"
 
Hale:" Good to see you to my Prince. I came all the way from the village to partake in the celebration, but the snow had delayed me a bit."
 
Noctis:" Regardless, you're here now, and that's what matters! You really are a sight for sore eyes."
 
Luna:" This is the colt that had restored your health, Noctis?"
 
Noctis:" Yes he is! I'm overjoyed to see him Luna!"
 
Luna:" Well Hale, you have my gratitude for saving my loved one's life. If it weren't for you, he most likely wouldn't have reached the element of passion and our quest would have been in vain."
 
Noctis:" Why did you come out all the way here in the first place Hale?"
 
Hale:" My fellow villagers and I wanted to just thank you for saving our village from those changelings. We would have been goners without you. The peace we now have is because of you, Prince Anon."
 
Noctis:" Oh that's right, you don't know about the new name. Call me Noctis, Hale."
 
Hale:" Amazing name sir! Either way, our village is in eternal gratitude for what you've done for us. In fact, we are raising a statue of you in our village square to honor you."
 
Noctis:" Not that I am all for vanity, but that sounds amazing Hale! You and your fellow villagers didn't have to do that!"
 
Luna:" Indeed, it's just what we do Hale."
 
Hale:" Nonsense!"
 
Hale:" Well, it was nice seeing you again Prince Noctis, but I have a family I have to go back to so I must leave you now."
 
Noctis:" Wait! Let us take you home ourselves! Might as well spare you the long trip, I mean you came out all this way just to see me, it's the least I can do for you."
 
Hale:" Oh come on, you don't need to do that."
 
Luna:" We insist Hale!"
 
Hale:" Oh alright. Thank you both so much!"
 
Noctis:" It's my pleasure, besides, we have no other royal duties to attend to so it's better than not doing anything."
 
Hale:" I guess so."
 
>Luna goes and prepares her chariot and the three ride north to the village where Hale resides
 
Noctis:" Wow, when you said there was a statue, you weren't kidding! It's amazing Hale!"
 
Hale:" It was my idea, I thought it was an amazing way to commemorate the best Prince in the history of the world."
 
Noctis:" There's no way that I'm the best prince in the history of the world Hale, many others came before me, I'm sure they accomplished bigger things."
 
Hale:" Nope, you have saved your kingdom multiple times from great evil and even came back from another world! Our village owes it existence to you! We would all be dead, or worse, if it weren't for you Prince Noctis."
 
Luna:" My my, this village seems like such a wonderful place, tis a shame that it's so far out from the mainland."
 
Hale:" Oh well, we like it here though. No snooty Canterlot ponies judging us all the time. We may be part of Equestria, but we don't like a lot of the ponies in it."
 
Noctis:" Well the location is nice regarding your surroundings. You have all the essentials and some natural luxuries here. I'll be sure to write here often Hale. Should you ever need anything, just send us a letter, and me and the Princess will come help you out."
 
Hale:" Thank you so much for your generosity Prince Noctis and Princess Luna. You two enjoy the rest of your night! Good bye!"
 
>The two get back on their chariot and Hale goes back to his family
 
>Noctis and Luna arrive back at the palace and drop by Celestia's room one last time
 
Noctis:" I really want to see Celestia again, I have a feeling that she wants to see us to Luna. Want to go?"
 
Luna:" Why of course, I love my Sister. I love to see her when I can."
 
>The two walk to Celestia's room
 
Celestia:" Noctis, Luna! Come in!"
 
Noctis:" How did you know we were coming?"
 
Celestia:" I had a hunch."
 
Noctis:" I just had a feeling in my heart that was telling me that we should see you tonight."
 
Celestia:" Well you two are always welcome in my room, you know that. The more I see you two the better."
 
Luna:" Celestia, you know, I still think about our mother. Mempharious, a guardian of the element of passion that forced Anon and I through several trials, had made me relive the horrible day that we lost her."
 
Celestia:" You know, I still think about Sora to, Luna. I miss our mother. We grew up without her, who knows, maybe if she was here, the whole Nightmare Moon thing would have never happened. I still hate myself for sending you to the moon Luna. All those years knowing my sister was being torn apart by herself on the moon just left me heartbroken. But let's move on to a more light-hearted subject can't we?"
 
Luna:" We can, and we shall."
 
Celestia:" Luna, the night sky tonight looks absolutely spectacular! The stars are truly amazing. You and Noctis do an amazing job, one that I could never do in all my years."
 
Noctis:" Celestia, I still just want to say thank you for everything you've done for us. And thanks for the compliment on the night sky. Your day is truly something to behold as well with a bright and shining sun beaming positive energy where ever it can."
 
>The three continue to converse and their family bond increases again
 
Noctis:" Well Celestia, it looks like it's time for you to raise the sun."
 
Celestia:" Indeed it does. I guess you two will be going to sleep after this, am I right?"
 
Luna:" Correct you are Sister."
 
Celestia:" Well in that case sleep well and sweet dreams. I'm sure you two always dream about each other. Enjoy your sleep, I know you will."
 
Noctis:" Thanks Celestia. We'll get our Moon out of the way for your day"
 
Celestia:" Alright. And no need to thank me brother."
 
>The two lower their night sky so the sun can be raised and illuminate the sky
 
Celestia:" You know, the holiday season is coming up. You two should participate in Christmas and give each other gifts! Maybe you can also join me on my duties that day, because it get's a bit lonely."
 
Noctis:" Sure thing Celestia. I didn't even know Equestria celebrates Christmas."
 
Luna:" Ah but we do My Prince. It is truly one of the most peaceful times here."
 
Noctis:" Sounds fun!"
 
>The three finish their conversation and Noctis and Luna head towards their room to sleep with each other again
 
>The two lay down in their bed beside each other and holding each other in their arms
 
Noctis:" You look as beautiful as ever my pretty Princess"
 
Luna:" Always the one to flatter me, aren't you? She says with a smile on her face
 
>Luna then kisses Noctis
 
Noctis:" Here , let me return that favor for you."
 
>Noctis kisses Luna back
 
Luna:" Oh Noctis, I really want things to be like this for the rest of our lives. I just want peace and harmony in our lives, nothing more and nothing less."
 
Noctis:" As long as you're here with me, Luna, I'm sure the good times will never, ever end"
 
Luna:" Sleep well Noctis, sweet dreams to, I'll be seeing you there."
 
Noctis:" Same to you Luna."
 
>The two fall asleep in each other's arms and begin to dream together
 
Luna:" Good to see you in my dreams again Noctis."
 
Noctis:" It's always great to see you My Dear Luna."
 
Luna:" So what shall we do now?"
 
Noctis:" Let's dream of our future together, I think that would be nice."
 
Luna:" Why of course! Great idea my Sweet Prince."
 
>They start dreaming of Christmas day
 
Noctis:" Merry Christmas Luna! Have this, I made it just for you."
 
>Noctis hands over a nice hoof stitched robe with stars decorating it
 
Luna:" Oh Noctis! It's perfect!"
 
>They kiss and embrace each other sweetly in each other's arms
 
>They then begin to dream years ahead
 
Noctis:" Look! It's our first child Luna! What will we name her?!"
 
Luna:" Starla! I think the name will suit her perfectly."
 
Noctis:" Starla eh? What a wonderful name for our daughter."
 
>They then stop their dreaming and return to the plain white dreamspace
 
Luna:" Noctis, let's just cuddle together in our spot in the Canterlot Gardens for the rest of our dream, shant we?"
 
Noctis:" Perfect idea my love."
 
>The two dream they are there in the Canterlot Gardens and softly lay next to each other, snuggling and cuddling together
 
Noctis:" Here's to an amazing life together Luna."
 
>Noctis kisses Luna sweetly and softly and She returns the kiss
 
>They lay there and softly embrace each other to their hearts desire
 
CHAPTER 2 EPILOGUE

Luna:" You know Noctis, I love you more than anything. I feel so happy and safe with you. I feel secure. I feel loved."
 
Noctis:" Luna, I feel the same way with you. You make me feel ways I have never felt before. I'm still so glad we're together. It'll only get better from here. We have Christmas coming up and we have many other holidays to. The more time I spend with you, My dear, the better."
 
Luna:" Noctis, you consume all my thoughts. I think about you almost all the time. I just wish our dreams could last forever, we can do whatever we please here. You know, when I'm with you, all my fears melt away. All the lies and dangers of the world just fade into nonexistence. You're like a sanctuary to me Noctis."
 
Noctis:" Oh Luna, never change. Your words always ignite my passion for you to a new level. I love you."
