Chapter 1

Luna woke up in a cold sweat. Her head was spinning and she was confused. Last thing she remembered was being hit with a powerful light. She had seen this light before. This light was from the elements of harmony. Her and her sister had once used these elements to defend Equestria. But then it all went bad. Why did she go through with her plan? Why did she even think it up?

These thoughts spun through her mind as she stood up. She was a bit wobbly at first and had a headache. Luna looked around her surroundings. She saw a barren wasteland, nothing at all. She looked up and saw the night sky she had created so many times. It was so familiar to her, but something seemed off. It was as if the stars were mourning. As if something important was gone. Luna searched the sky for an answer. A clue. She soon realized that she couldn't see the moon. It was gone.

Luna spun around hoping that it would be behind her. It wasn't. Instead what she saw made her legs fall out beneath her. Up in the sky were the moon should be was the planet she had once called home. Earth was right in front of her. No wonder she couldn't find the moon. She was on it.

Luna let out a cry of despair. She was on the moon! She realised that what she had done was bad enough for this. She had been banned to the moon. It was kinda ironic now that she thought about it. The princess of the moon was now banned to it. Luna looked down and saw her armour was still equipped. With a discusded cry she flung it off. It flew a few feet then bounced a bit. It landed in a crater a few yards away from her.

"Good." Luna said. She looked around for something she could do. She liked it better when she could do something. It didn't matter if it was productive or not. So long as it was something.

Suddenly a bright light flashed in her face. Luna took a few steps back startled. The light started to change. It morphed into a rectangular shape then fell to the ground. The light faded and behind left a book. It was just a plain book. Puzzled Luna picked it up with her magic and opened the first page. Inside was some writing. Luna sat down to read it.

Dear Sister,

I am so sorry of what had happened. I know I should have paid more attention to you. I wish that I could go back and change that fact but I can't. I also wish that I didn't have to banish you to the moon. I know that you're probably furious with me. I just want you to know that I love you and will mourn for you these thousand years. I have written this inside of a small journal. It may seem normal but truth is it has been enchanted so that you never run out of paper. I know it's not much but if the other council members found out about even this they would punish me. Love, your sister Tia

Luna's magic quivered as she set down the book. A single tear fell down her face. She beat herself up for what she had done. She sniffed then lay down. "Maybe Tia is asleep. If so maybe we could dream with her..." Luna rested her head on her hooves and fell into a restless sleep.
