The Night of the Full Moon

Princess Luna stood atop her castle balcony, staring at the moon she admired so much. It was her duty to raise and lower it,
signifying the change of day to night, and the conclusion of her shift. As she gazed into the white sphere, a reflection of Nightmare Moon glared back, an image that would be a constant reminder of the time she lost control of herself. She shook the idle thoughts from her head, returning to her task of lowering the moon. Luna's horn glowed with magic as she performed her rite. Night steadily turned to day, and she saw her sister on a nearby balcony. Celestia's horn shined yellow as she started to raise the sun, her own royal duty.

Luna continued to lower the moon as flashes of her darker self became constant in her mind. She grew concerned with them, as they would only ever appear when she was feeling assertive or dominant. She often saw a flash of Nightmare Moon here and there, but the images wouldn't last long. She felt that something of significant importance had slipped her mind. She just shook her head once more, hoping to clear the idle thoughts and lingering feelings.

I'm just tired, that's all. I need sleep, yeah, that's it! Luna thought.

She continued to struggle with her duty as she lowered the moon, her head bobbing up and down from sheer lack of sleep. For the past week, she had been shaving off time for rest in order to play the new Pegasus Gaiden game for PonyStation 4. She was so determined to beat the first boss that she kept herself awake, constantly downing energy drinks and snacking on HayMix! for 3 days straight. Now, at the end of her shift, she began to feel drowsy. She didn't care much, however, as she knew she would be asleep soon anyway. She continued her duty as the thought of why she was seeing her other side crossed her mind. Tonight's moon was full, and the problem she was having must have come from the source itself. She decided that it must be the reason, but didn't know why it would cause her to react this way. She finished lowering it as the sun shone brightly in the sky. Satisfied that her duty was now complete, she turned around and began to walk back to her room.

Her head hung low, swaying back and forth as her eyes fluttered in an attempt to stay open. Her hooves merely scraped along the cold stone floor as she trudged along the path to her room. She tried her hardest to stay awake and alert. Alas, she nearly collapsed multiple times in the hallway from the ongoing struggle.

A few royal guards saw this and rushed to her aid.

"Princess Luna, are you alright?" one of them asked as he lifted her up.

"Huh? Oh, thank you. It seems I'm a bit tired, that's all," Luna smiled as she continued on her route.

The guard that helped her hastily went back to his post, his wings fully erect. The other guards saw this and told him to calm down. He tried his hardest to calm himself, but couldn't get the image out of his mind. As he was helping the Princess off of the ground, he could smell a sweet scent from her marehood. When he glanced at it, he saw a single stream of excitement clinging to her outer lip.

As Luna walked, she became more alert. She noticed something peculiar about the scene that had just occurred. She wondered why the guard had helped her up, but wouldn't escort her to her room. In the past when she'd been tired, they would always do so. They’d talk with her if she were conscious, or even carry her all the way back if need be. She couldn't understand why they wouldn't so much as offer to escort her. She paused a moment and tried to think of a logical explanation as to why they wouldn't help her, and noticed she had an itch on the lower part of her abdomen. In trying to fix this unnerving sensation, she felt another one....wetness. Her eyes widened as she brought her hoof up to her face. On it was a small line of clear fluid, clinging to it ever so tightly. Her face turned a bright crimson, and her body felt like it was being wrapped in an electric blanket. She felt so ashamed, so embarrassed that her protectors had seen her like this. She dashed towards her bedroom as a voice echoed in her mind.

"How HOT was it to let them see us like this? Oh, my, if they had only followed, we could have thanked them for their hard work," it said.

Luna became immediately frightened at this inner thought and sprinted further down the winding hallways to her chambers. On the bright side, she wasn't tired anymore. Instead, she was fully awake with dismay. She desperately fled to her room, hoping that no one else had seen her. After a couple of minutes, she reached her bedroom and used her magic to remove the lock on the door. She was thankful that no one else had discovered her in this state.

It's a good thing I'm not in heat She thought to herself. If I was, I think I might have taken all four of those guards on back there...

After Luna made it inside her room, she turned on the lights and slammed the door, making sure it was locked before she ventured into her closet. In the bottom drawer of a tucked away box, there hid Luna's stash. She used her magic to undo the spell on it, then set it down on her bed. She opened her box and browsed its contents. She wasn't sure which toy she wanted to use among the vast array of sexy devices.

"Should I use one with batteries, or something that just requires the force of my hoof instead?" Luna asked out loud.

She debated with herself over what could vanquish this feeling in her nether region. The small, compact toy she held in her hoof was shaped like an egg. A wire extended from the shell’s inner layer to a small control panel that lay on her bed. On the panel was a small dial that changed the intensity of the vibrations being submitted. It went from “Low”, with small hashes in-between to “Medium” ; then it went from “Medium” to “High”, with more hashes in-between to allow more control over the experience. She liked the idea of controlling her own orgasm, so she decided to go with the toy. It had been quite a while since she used any sort of object on herself, and her heartbeat sped up in pure excitement at the thought. She could feel the small spasms of lust in her inner walls as they craved and begged for something to penetrate them.

Luna set the dial to the “Low” setting before she sat on her wide, outstretched bed. While the bed itself wasn’t fancy, the sheets were made out of Egyptian silk, a luxury that royalty frequently enjoyed. Not wanting to stain the sheets with her love juices, Luna removed the top sheet, exposing the ones underneath. These sheets were made out of cotton, so she could have as much fun as she wanted without caring about the consequences. She knew she could easily wash them after her alone time, so she smiled as the low humming noise from the toy started to fill the air. Not wanting anypony to hear her, she turned on her stereo and plugged in her MP3. She had a playlist for just this sort of occasion, so she turned it to half volume, and laid flat on her back. She breathed a heavy sigh as the artist Ginuwine started to sing his song.

Luna’s arm trembled as she raised the setting halfway between “Low” and “Medium.” Slowly lowering the device to her crotch, her heart started to beat faster at knowing what was about to occur. She started to sweat from pure adrenaline as the device touched her most outer lip. With a soft moan, she started to carefully and sensually rub the device along her outer lip as more juices started to flow out of her. She gasped as she did a full circle of the outer lip and stopped on her clitoris. Like a pearl in a clamshell, her clit started to slowly come out of its shell. However, it wasn’t completely engorged yet, meaning that she still had some work to do.

Luna adjusted the dial up a couple of hash marks, just underneath the medium setting. The buzzing of the device intensified as She cautiously pushed it into herself. With a gasp and a moan, Luna flung her head back onto a pillow as the device started to make its way inside of her. She could feel the vibrations of the device reverberate and tingle every crevice of her inner cave. With slow inserts and removals, she could feel the device slowly working its charm on her.

The small eggshell of a device rubbed every fold of her inner walls as her love juices started to leak out of her moist, tight hole. She turned the dial slightly higher and squealed in pure bliss. She crossed her hindlegs in response to the increasing intensity as she dug her face into the pillows underneath her. With raspy moans and short jerks, her hoof explored the misty cavern with curiosity. The device went into overtime as she shuttered and twisted violently, the pleasure being too much for her to handle. Suddenly, as she was nearing her finish, she stopped feeling the vibrations below.

Luna’s eyes went wide as she realized something. She hadn’t changed the batteries. The current ones had run out of juice, thus ending her alone time. Disappointed, she removed the device from inside herself and just gawked at it. She adjusted the dial to “Low” in hopes of somehow resurrecting the device. She knew this was a failed effort, but she was still hopeful that it had some battery life left. She grew angry, knowing that she was almost done but would not climax. She hurled the device across the room in a fit of rage. It bounced off the wall and landed with a loud thunk on top of her desk.

“This is just like the time when I was playing Mega Pony for the Pegasus Entertainment System!” She shouted. “The power went out and I couldn’t finish! I was on the last boss and ready to deliver the final blow, when wait, you’re about to finish? Fuck you, Luna! And I couldn’t even save! 2 and a half hours of hard work gone! Not finishing when you’re at the end of something is the worst feeling ever!” She cried.

Luna started to inhale huge amounts of air to calm herself. Her once ecstatic arousal was now stagnant and dead. Luna turned off her music, shut down the lights, and sat straight up in bed. She drew the top sheet over herself and lay there, trying to fall asleep. It took some time, but her eyes eventually closed, starting her trip to the dream world.

Her mind slipped into darkness. Exhausted as she was, she wandered lazily through the realm of dreams. She could feel her awareness go numb as any rational thought gave way to her subconscious perceptions and desires. Memories, fears, and fantasies appeared before her, shifting and churning as her dream fully formed.

Luna’s vision was pitch black, but her other senses had remained fully functional. She could feel the strong current blow through her mane while her vision returned to normal. She soon found herself flying through the sky.

“Bwaaaghgh, ngghhh” Luna fumbled, distressed. She quickly found that she had been flying the entire time. She thought that she was merely on the ground while the gusty current blew through her long and lustrous mane.

Even though she panicked, her sense of flight and its skill was unmatched. She calmed down while she continued on her predetermined path. She didn’t know where she was flying to, but she glanced from side to side out of the corner of her eyes. She saw her sister flying in the same direction. Not knowing where she was headed, she figured it would be best to just follow Celestia, as she would know where they were heading.

After some time, she began to recognize small pieces of terrain. She could see a vast and frozen land start to come into view. Venturing forth, she started to feel the sting of the icy wind. The bone-chilling feeling of frostbite attacked her body ruthlessly. Luna’s body shivered in hopes of staying warm. Celestia picked up the pace in flying speed. Not wanting to lose sight of her sister, Luna sped up as she started to get a sense of where they were.

“Are we heading towards the Crystal Empire?” Luna thought to herself. “If that’s true, then I should see a large structure in the middle of the kingdom.”

After some time had passed, Luna started to see the faint outline of a kingdom, a tall structure looming on the horizon. As she flew towards it, she could sense a dark and powerful aura radiating near its borders, its intensity increasing as she flew closer. Luna ventured further into the sky, and recognized a tall structure in the middle as it came into view. Its foundation was strong and wide, and near the bottom stood a dark unicorn. A dark, jagged crown sat upon his head, containing his greasy, jet-black mane. His red cape dragged along the ground as he walked about, using his magic to whip the ponies in the city. Luna glided down in front of him as Celestia followed suit. The two alicorns locked eyes with the dark unicorn, and Celestia spoke.

“Who are you, and why are you tormenting these ponies?” she demanded.

An evil laugh erupted from the unicorn’s throat. “I am King Sombra, and you are interfering with my work!”

Luna was about to say something before she realized that Sombra stopped talking. His movements were frozen as Luna took a glance at her sister. Celestia’s face still showed anger towards Sombra, but she did not move either. Luna walked over to Sombra and poked him in the face, expecting a reaction. He merely stood there, his body standing as still as time itself.

“What is going on around here?” Luna asked herself.

“I stopped time in this realm,” responded a voice.

“Who goes there? Show yourself!” Luna shouted as she took a fighting stance. Her horn glowed with magic as she looked around trying to find the source.

“Oh come now, Luna. Put that thing away before you hurt yourself,” the voice replied. A dark blue mist emerged in front of Luna’s eyes, slowly taking shape. Stepping out of the haze was her former self, Nightmare Moon. Luna was shocked to see Nightmare Moon appearing before herself.

“But, but, you’re me. I’m me. Just what is going on?” Luna frantically asked.

“Honestly, Luna, look around. Don’t you feel a strange sense of deja vu? That’s because you have already been here, Princess,” Nightmare Moon said, her words filled with poison. “You are dreaming, you lowly piece of trash.”

“Trash? I will eradicate you from existence!” Luna shouted, her horn aglow with magic.

The dark queen of the night sighed as she disappeared. Luna looked around, trying to catch a glimpse of Nightmare Moon. The lavender alicorn felt a sharp pain to her jaw as Nightmare Moon kicked her square in the face. Luna flew through the air and landed on her back. Before she could react, the dark mare was already on top of her. Nightmare Moon laughed as she stepped on Luna’s throat with a foreleg. Gasping for air, Luna choked hard as it pressed down further, crushing her windpipe.

“Now then you dimwit, allow me to explain why I’m here,” Nightmare Moon said, smirking. She continued to step on Luna’s throat. Luna gasped while a trickle of liquid leaked out of her. Nightmare Moon moved her hind leg up to her marehood and began to slowly rub it. The princess’s face went immediately red.

Nightmare Moon merely laughed as more of the liquid crept out of Luna. “This is called self-asphyxiation, you worm. It’s when someone chokes you while you pleasure yourself, or you choke and pleasure yourself at the same time,” she said. Nightmare Moon released the princess from her submissive state.

“Now then, you waste of life. Just what were you doing in your room alone? Hmmm, you weren’t being naughty now, were you?” Nightmare Moon asked sadistically.

Luna’s face flushed red with embarrassment as Nightmare Moon just stood there, her face gleaming with arrogance and pride. “This must be a dream. How else could she knew what I had done alone? She must know that I was having fun with myself in my bedroom. Dammit, just how much does she know?” Luna thought to herself.

“Everything,” Nightmare Moon replied.

Luna suddenly stood up, horrified that her thoughts had been read..

“I am you, Luna. And you are me. We are connected by the same bonds of fate. We both hold the same body, the same state of mind. I mean look at what you did to me, you intolerable bitch,” Nightmare Moon said, bending over in front of the startled princess.

Just like Luna, Nightmare Moon’s marehood was dripping with lust and excitement. This only turned Luna on more the longer she stared at this tight, pink hole. Her plot begged for punishment as her wings sprang up, throbbing.

“Hnnnggg, Luna, you’re making it worse!” Nightmare Moon shouted, a light moan escaping her lips. “I didn’t know you were so kinky, Luna. You naughty, naughty, mare you. Uah, why are you making me this excited? Luna, let’s focus real quick. Ok? Focus! I need your answer on this question. Do you want me to get you off, or him?” Nightmare Moon asked, her hoof pointing towards a still frozen Sombra.

“You see, when you are in the mood, I feel the same thing. The problem is that when you feel arousal, it intensifies this feeling in me. And Luna? You want to know why you get horny so badly when a full moon is out? It’s because of our past. When we were banished, a full moon gave us enough light to see earth. To occupy our time and enjoy this view, we started to touch ourselves. It started out simply and innocently enough, but it quickly became something else, something splendid. We found ourselves, Luna. We found that we could enjoy the time and the luxuries of our curvy bodies. Over time, we developed a habit. Every full moon, we become aroused and agitated more, knowing that we are about to find ourselves again,” Nightmare Moon said, her voice dripping with desire. “Now, Luna, what do you want me to do?”

Luna couldn't reply, her body shaking from pure adrenaline and anticipation. “I grow tired of using my hoof or a device. It has been some time since I have had a stallion,” Luna meekly replied.

“Then, let’s change the setting a bit, shall we?” With a bright flash of light, Luna was blinded immediately. After a while, she regained her vision. She found herself on top of the balcony where she performed her royal duty. Looking to the sky she saw a full moon, its shining light embracing her in its soft glow. She took comfort in this, but was soon drawn to a shuffling behind her. Turning around, she saw Sombra staring back at her.
