Eternity

*Well sorry this took like 2-3 weeks I had no idea what I was going to do. My options were explain and have a stupidly long talk or summarize the whole thing or have some sort of distraction from it and do it over time...* (That was my author's note two weeks after I released chapter 2, so sorry for delaying this. Also I hate myself just as much as you hate me for the delay!)

I honestly don’t want to tell you everything that delayed this but I will. Firstly the last few weeks of school with all the exams and studying, next summer laziness for two weeks (fuck me right?), then I moved on the first of August so the two weeks before and the week after were hectic. That about covers it!

Thoughts I’m really lazy about will be in Italics. Also I would like to say that I have no idea what I’m doing with perspective in this chapter, Tell me if I messed up.

Luna had questions for me, a lot of questions. Things like are you really immortal, how did you get sent to the void and how can you use magic. I answered these as truthfully as possible leaving out that I was a human of course. I didn’t want to be swamped with questions, I needed to find out where I was.

“Wait here while I go talk to my sister about getting you a room in the castle,” she said after I had explained to her that I was not from equestria.

She left so I decided to look around the room for something interesting to do. Luna had yet to answer my questions so I decided to look for a history book on the small bookshelf she had in her room. Reading the covers for anything that concerned history I came across a rather large picture book. Inside were tapestries with small words underneath each picture that were almost so small that if you were far enough away you would think there were only pictures in the book. I started to read...

“Once upon a time, in the magical land of Equestria, there were two regal sisters who ruled together, and created harmony for all the land. To do this, the eldest used her unicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn; the younger brought out the moon to begin the night. Thus, the two sisters maintained balance for their kingdom and their subjects, all the different types of ponies. But as time went on, the younger sister became resentful. The ponies relished and played in the day her elder sister brought forth, but shunned and slept through her beautiful night. One fateful day, the younger unicorn refused to lower the moon to make way for the dawn. The elder sister tried to reason with her, but the bitterness in the young one's heart had transformed her into a wicked mare of darkness: NightMare Moon. She vowed that she would shroud the land in eternal night. Reluctantly, the elder sister harnessed the most powerful magic known to ponydom: the Elements of Harmony. Using the magic of the Elements of Harmony, she defeated her younger sister, and banished her permanently in the moon. The elder sister took on responsibility for both sun and moon and harmony has been maintained in Equestria for generations since.”

“Wow...” I said outloud, Luna said she had returned after one thousand years so this book must be out-dated and... slightly wrong. I thought about how the book said the banishment was permanent, that must have been hard on Celestia. To banish her sister to the moon thinking it would be for an eternity. Then again she must have been overjoyed when she saw her again after one thousand years. I shoved the book back where I had taken it from and walked around the room thinking of something to do. Maybe a simple scan of my body? Yes, I really need to do that just to make sure that I can cast enhancement spells without some... drawbacks. Don’t ask what those are, painful memories.

I cast the spell having an image come into my mind as I memorized everything about it. I was a pony with wings of course but analyzing my body I couldn’t see how I would be able to fly. I weighed around 100 pounds according to my scan, how could these wings lift that? Something to find out on a later date I guess.

Okay so I’m in some random world with talking ponies, unicorns and pegasi who also have immortal monarchs, seems legit. Speaking of immortal monarchs Luna left rather quickly didn’t she? Was she nervous or maybe even scared or was she really so impulsive? Meh, it’s not like it matters I may as well be her friend for the time being until I can find a way back to earth.

Sitting there thinking I didn’t notice the hoofsteps behind me until it was too late. Luna tackled me from behind sending me tumbling to the ground yelping while she grasped me hoping to keep me from recovering from the force of her tackle. It worked, I hit the floor with a small thud rewarding Luna with a groan. She took that as a signal to get off while I just layed there wondering if it was still a good idea to befriend her.

“You okay?” she asked suppressing a giggle.

“Ya,” I answered sarcastically “I get tackled by ponies almost two times my size everyday, it’s no big deal.”

“That’s great I thought we-I had hurt you for a second.” Apparently she doesn’t understand sarcasm because that hurt. What? She's heavy compared to me!

I got up, turned around and gave her an are you fucking kidding me look. Seeing her face it looked like she was suppressing a laugh. Not an easy one to hold apparently because she bursts out laughing falling to the ground and clutching her sides with her forelegs.

My face displayed what I believe to be a deadpan stare as she kept on laughing for a good five minutes eventually slowing to a low pitched giggle. Opening her eyes and rubbing a tear out of her eye Luna looked up at me immediately her expression turned into a small frown. As she got up she avoided my gaze and actually whimpered quietly. After an awkward silence lasting for a good three minutes she whispered something that I couldn’t quite catch.

“What was that?” I asked not understanding what she said.

“I- so-” she mumbled in a barely audible way.

“Sorry, couldn’t quite catch that,” I said trying not to be too impolite.

“I’m sorry,” Luna squeaked out.

Now, I’m not one to hold grudges for long nor am I one who gets mad easily but she should know better then to just tackle somepony smaller than them. Wait, did I just use somepony instead of someone in my thought process? Anyways getting crushed by a pony almost two times your size hurts, a lot. Don’t think of me as weak or something along the lines of that, you get crushed by somepony significantly larger than you and see how you feel.

“It’s ok Luna I forgive you,” I said sincerely “Just don’t do it again...”

“Thank you, thank you, thank you,” The Princess of the night said cheerfully “You won’t regret forgiving us!” at that she hugged me, that’s right the Princess Luna hugged me. Eat it.

“Would you like to be my friend Caloo?” Just as I was about to answer yes she asked, “You are going to be alive forever are you not?” Luna saying this left me unsure of myself now. Seeing as how I wanted to make my way home as quickly as possible and how she wanted our friendship to last forever as we would both be living forever. Leaving would hurt Luna If I got close enough to her as a friend then just left at my first chance.

I decided to chance it and see where it went so I answered still hugging her, “I would be honored to be your friend Luna”
