Prologue

  Its been 1000 years since Luna has seen anything but darkness. Her cage has been dark, with nothing to disturb all the shadows or, the princess of the night, the girl within the shadows, Luna. The day she was put in here she had been angry that Celestia was the people's 'major ruler'. She had been caught and sedated, carried and placed in a cage. She woke up and heard Celestia's words clearly when she was placed here:

'You will stay here until you have learned your lesson.'

'What lesson?' I asked.

'Exactly.'

  Celestia, supposedly the better ruler, was the slightly more mature sister. She can at least put something on before a date.

I smiled. 'Was I supposed to do the dishes?'

'No! Don't you know who- what you've done?' Celestia slipped. Luna caught it.

'Who I've done? Nobody worse than Discord, I bet.'

'He raped me!' Celestia exclaimed.

'You didn't wear any clothes,' Luna countered. 'He had no reason not to fuck you.'

'Well, you had sex with the chair once,' Celestia shook her head. 'Just, learn something, okay?' She walked out.

  Celestia from then on forgot about Luna, only kept tabs on her from the chart on the moon, stating if Luna was in her cage or not. A girl on the moon meant Luna was in her cage, no girl meant Luna was loose. Fairly simple, and caused the legends about the girl on the moon.

  Celestia didn't treat her younger sister like this very often. They often liked going to clubs and casinos to use up government money and to have sex. They loved it. Every Saturday (until now, since Luna is in a cage) they did their 'Adventurous Night to Find Booze and Sticks' night, which could be extended, thanks to the Lunar Princess and her punishment.

  Most of Luna's belongings had been put up into the Cloud Storage Facility, because Luna's stuff was valuable. She never told Luna about this transition, since Celestia wanted to leave Luna to learn her lesson in peace. The only things that Luna was allowed to keep were a pillow, her 'scarf thing' as Celestia called it,  and a stuffed toy from her childhood, a pony version of herself. She had always loved the small toy, but never did much with it. But in her cage, she played with it a lot to deal with her boredom.

  Luna's cage was typical, as far as cages go. Steel bars on all sides and steel top and bottom. Magically protected to prohibit use of magic inside of it. Food came from the castle, brought to her every night, when Celestia's phoenix teleports it to her cage, with its magic, since the phoenix's magic has no glowing aura, like everybody else.

Everything had been dark.

No color but black.

Nothing.

No hope.

  Luna had been in this cage, stuck to be taught a lesson. She ended up stuck, to be enveloped in darkness. She loved the dark, she was it's ruler, and the darkness didn't bother her, but it often didn't listen. Either way, she had been in her cage for 1000 years, and had definitely learned something. Well, two things over that time. Of course, being Luna and also being stubborn, she didn't learn the 'lesson'. One thing she did learn, though, was her plan to escape her cage and overthrow Celestia to take over the kingdom, and the other thing that Luna learned…

Darkness causes insanity.
