Celestia's Mistake

All my sudden thoughts came. Why was she the Miss- I'm- royalty- and- you- are- not? I felt trechery and hate fill my heart and more words to come. I felt my heart pang at the hum and wonderful music I made.

"Come, little children, I'll take thee away
Into a land of enchantments-
Come, little children, the time's come to play,
Here in my garden of shadows,"

My feelings rushed with agony as my mind gave off doubt and disloyalty.

"Follow, sweet children, I'll show thee the way
Through all the pain and the sorrows-
Weep not, poor children, for life is this way,
Murdering beauty and passions."

It was temporary and I wished for more melodious voices to soften my head. I tumbled my way on to the floor, Crying with sorrow and pain, Like my children of the night. Why couldn't all ponies like the night as much as their fillies do. Don't they see sadness in them? Or is it too dark that you see a shadow of their light?

My head crashed into the mirror that my dear mother got me, before she died. It was a brutal death. And one that is never to forget, or throw away. My forehead had multiple cuts and bruises. Blood dripped down to the floor. The tears fell one by one, until my spilled blood turned black.

My dark blue mane covered my face with loneliness. A sentimental thought rised into my throat and out my mouth. "Why me?" Said the thought. I covered my issue about this many times before with servants and Tia. But that was less concerning. Now, it boiled my head and bubbled the gloom.

Celestia has gone way off the borders this time and she was going to pay. She first starts a harmonic dimension, and now, Bragging about herself and calling me a disloyal princess.

Then came that colt. Yes, that stallion who ruined my life even more and almost made me suicide. Almost. Until another thought came to my mind. What am I going to do with life after this? My life will be dead and death will die with it. That pony will laugh insanely and try his best to sabotage me by telling lies. He was a fool to think i'm not that smart. I still snicker at the thought when he is growling at me with revenge.

Then again, Life is already bad. Why make it worse when you could do so much with it? And I did exactly what conscience told me. My evil conscience that is. Then, a pang of a lightheaded feeling swerved around me. I was weak and tried screaming for help. But no noise came at my commands and my eyes, mouth, and body was covered with black. Black ink that rose up to my head calling my name.

It was the evil thing. The evil Nightmare that long awaited for my sanity.

The darkness came. Where was I? A dark world filled the air and a scent of vile cruelty came to me. Hatred. Then, I stood. It was a path, a path to reality.

I saw my sister in front of me. There were tears streaming down her face. When her eyes rested on me, she cried. She seemed young, delicate, fragile, afraid. Her Beautiful pink eyes had water. What did I do? It was such regret and pain. What was it? I heard laughs from the air and screams. They were saying that word. That word. The two words. Nightmare Moon. Who was the Nightmare Moon I wondered. My sister started to mumble. She was saying something. She was speaking with sniffles after saying the same sentence over and over again.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. What sorry?

A Flash came about. I was back to the world. There she was again. Tia. She was crying. What did I do? She started running after me. I tried to run but I couldn't. Something was controlling me. It was flying away from my sister. A zap flew from my horn and hit her right in the head. No! Stop! Tia!

I tried with all my might but it was no good. I was possessed. A mere sight was shown after that and I came back to the dark world. There were pony faces and 6 young fillies that I knew but couldn't tell who. I knew them. But who were they?

There was two young unicorns. One had sleek and a shiny dark purple mane that didn't need words to be known. Generosity. Who was the other unicorn? That purple little filly that I knew from somewhere. She was the most important element. Magic. Then there was Kindness, Honesty, Laughter, and Loyalty. All of them stared at me with blank eyes. The ponies around them said the same word I kept hearing. Nightmare, Nightmare, Nightmare.

It all came to me. I realized what they were talking about. Actually, it was more of WHO they were talking about. Me. Yes, me. The princess of the night. She was a nightmare. I was a nightmare. I was Nightmare moon.

Once again. I turned to see me, flying and zapping. Missing my sister every time. Then, she did something so horrifying that I couldn't breathe for a minute. She had attacked me with the elements of harmony. I screeched and this time, it wasn't just me. It was everything that was controlling me.

The faint sight of seeing my sister hurting me was unbearable. All my images of the nightmares were gone. But it was just the ending of a happy moment. I found light in the dark bubble and reached out to grab it. It was closing in. It was shrinking smaller and smaller. I was using all my strength to get it. Unfortunately, I failed. It was gone. Water were forming in my eyes and I shouted the only thing that came up.

MAKE THE NIGHTMARE STOP!!

Celestia looked at the journal with sorrow and pain. She never heard such a terrible story from her sister. Probably because she would have the same nightmare feeling again. She wanted to read on but it was too tragic and terrifying. Her mind exploded sobs and pain that she hid for one thousand years.

The rush of agony filled her head and her mane stopped waving. It drooped on the floor like ashes.

Without slight notice, she found her servant's hoofsteps coming towards her bedroom. She quickly wiped tears off and sat in a calm but stern way, just like any princess would do. A modest princess. Then, her body had a tingly feeling of something. Something that wasn't right.

She first starts a harmonic dimension, and now, Bragging about herself and calling me a disloyal princess.

Her daze struck wonder and confusion. What was she to do with a decision. Her mind, stopped it's trance as the servant came in.

"Your Majesty, your sister is outside with Princess Twilight and her friends. She wishes for you to come and drink tea with them." Said Rose blossom. Her eyes were a delicate flower and mane was a silky flare. A serene stare crossed her. Celestia smiled. Rose looked at the princess, noticing a tear drop down to the carpet. Her voice broke a little as she knew "it" was happening again."Your Majesty, Are you... crying?" she pondered.

Celestia Gasped. Her eyes didn't notice the pain coming down her eyes. Was it pain? She gave an awkward blush and blurted out, "It's probably just the g-garlic. From the Chicken... I mean Kitchen!" Her choice of words were very obvious. Celestia Choked her thoughts as if thinking of something not suspicious to say. Sweat landed on her forehead with pity and stupidity.

"Princess," Rose chuckled "You don't have to hide your face from me This is what you do when you are realizing your past." Celestia gaped and her.

Rose understood that face as well "I've worked for the 20 years here Princess, Ever since I was a canterlot high. I've gotten used to your emotions and I now know what you feel." She grinned and Started to trot away.

"I'll let Miss Luna know that you'll be coming in a bit," She said as she walked out the door. Her red mane flowed through the hallways in a nice pattern. Rose always knew what to say when Celestia needed advise. She was more than a servant, she was a dear friend. How am I realizing such feeling now? Weren't all my workers always my friends?

A small voice peered into her mind. They were, but you never knew it. Light takes away darkness. When it starts to shrink, your ideal necessities fade away.

The voice made Celestia smile, and she really felt it. The bond between her and everything in the world. Everything that deserved to be loved. Everything had a heart to her. Even the smallest creatures. She could feel it. She was finally able to see her mouth grind her teeth slightly and smile. Laughter, Honesty, Kindness, Loyalty, Generosity, and Magic were all just basic elements that proved what was important in the world. It didn't just prove friendship.

It showed love. Love and respect to all who cared about her. She stared out the window where a wonderful image appeared.

Her sister, and friends were laughing and talking in the bright daylight. The sun shine above them. Peaking over the sunlight, she could see it. The moon. She must have forgotten to lower it. But it was so nice, like a star that had a sister. A sister like the sun. It was gorgeous. So beautiful and so gorgeous. Celestia walked out the front gates to meet the eyes of her favorite pupils. She grinned with that same feeling again.

Luna and all of the others waved at her. I wish the world could stay like this. Like the peaceful calm daylight that the earth gets.
