The Element of Hope.

Prologe two: The Element of Hope.

Celestia concentrated her sigh on the bearer, ready to answer each question they gave her as Luna sit near the window, looking trough it almost like she was waiting for something.

"Princess, what is the Element of Hope?" asked Rarity, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Celestia sighted, noticing how Luna will not help her this time. Her pink eyes concentrated in the blue ones of the fusionist unicorn.

"The Element of Hope was created, many years ago, by us, Luna and me, helped by our mentor and our creations" the alicorn said, "It, unlike the rest of them, choose one of us to be its only bearer. It was me, since I was the one with more hope..."

"But, after we defeated Discord, my sister began to lose the hope she once had; so when she was hopeless, the Element broke…" Luna continued, "Or so we trough. Each piece teleported to one place of Equestria, unknown to everypony, even to us"

"So, when we find it, we fight Discord while Celestia activates it, right?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"We wish it would be as easy as it looks..." said the alicorn of the night letting a single tear fall, "Since Celestia let every hope she had escape from her embrace, the Element choose another bearer from the time when it will be needed again..."

"So we had to look, also, for its bearer, somepony with a very strong hope, stronger than the one I had..." the alicorn of day conclude, "Any other question?"

"What are your creations, since you mentioned it?" asked Twilight Sparkle, really intrigued.

"Thousands of years ago, before the defeat of Discord or his desire of chaos, we decided to create two things to help us to maintain the balance of the world. I created The Light, who helped me to control the sun and balance the day's heat, also my celestial object's warm light, to not burn the cops of the rest of the ponies..." Celestia said, little tears falling from her eyes remembering that pony of light, the one that resembled her guardian angel...

"And I created The Darkness, who helped me to control the moon and balance the night, create its stars and constellations, to not descend the temperature enough to freeze to death the crops... And other things I am not proud of..." Luna said, also, shedding little tears remembering that pony of darkness, the one that resembled her very own shadow.

"They where the sacrifice I had to do so many years ago to bring my sister back..." the bigger alicorn looked at the green eyes of the smaller one, "I am sorry Luna, but that was the only choice..."

"Its no problem, sister..." Luna said, a smile appeared on her lips, "Just remember how the hope is the last thing lost..." a last tear fell from her eyes, "I learned it from my most faithful subject, you know who..."

Celestia nodded as her eyes concentrated on the pony who just opened the door, her grayish coat remembered her so much of her creation, her yellow eyes filled with fear, her black and dark red mane covered by little snowdrops, a dark pink scarf gripped firmly around her neck.
