The Sun, Stars, and the Moon

Luna, please awake

for I have brought you angel cake...

Luna groaned with annoyance. Soarin closed his eyes and chuckled. He had spent an hour after talking to Thunderlane, trying to wake Luna up, but in his effort he only got groans and moans. Soarin was patient with the healing Luna, because he knew what it was like trying to wake his sleep-deprived mother up. Luckily, he got his mother a good sleeping schedule, being the mature and kind-hearted stallion he is. In a way, Luna was like Soarin's mother, at least, that's what he thought.

Leave me be, Soarin,

for I do not want to hear your wild roaring.

Soarin sighed, and pulled the blanket off of her hospital bed as Luna shivered and scrambled around for it. He then opened all the windows in Luna's room, and which then Luna groaned louder. Soarin then poked her patiently with his wing. All of this made Luna open her eyes and flap her lips. She looked at Soarin grumpily, while Soarin looked back with the same look, to mock her.

Luna's grumpy look turned into a snicker, and then into a laugh. Soarin smiled, and laughed along too.

T-that is not what I look like,

Soarin!

B-but, the face you were making was hilarious,

I just had to jest!

And so, after minutes of laughing, Luna got out of bed and sat in the fluffy, soft, and white cloud chair, putting her forearms onto the table, looking the same as the chair she sat on. She felt somewhat satisfied, for she hasn't gone to Cloudsdale in such a while. Soarin, on the other hoof, was preparing the angel cake with a smile as usual. He brought out plates, and made coffee. As everything was prepared, Soarin brought out the coffee and cake. Luna dined on the angel food like a princess would. Soarin, tried his best to eat royally like her, but struggled. She took notice of the troubled Soarin, and taught him what to know about table etiquette. He listened closely.

After the meal, the happy princess looked outside into the dim, but bright world. Sure, most of the darkness was gone, but all she could see in the world before her, was light and darkness combining. Luna frowned at the thought of not seeing the moon, the sun, and the stars, as well as the true colors of this world. Because, it was simple philosophy and logic to accept that there has to be light and dark. She then thought about Celestia and Starswirl.

Luna, I need to ask you, one thing.

What is it, wonderbolt?

If there is both light and dark,

what if the two disappeared?

Then the world, would be empty.

Light and dark is what accompanies this world to make life.

Light is needed to bring warmth, kindness, and everything good into the world.

Darkness is needed to balance the world of harmony, to create the fire within everyone, and to see the stars, the moon, and the sun.

...I see.

Soarin look amused as he stared into the abyss of dim light in front him. Luna, now feeling profound, stared into the world as well. Luna, having a puzzled face, realized that the world is here for everypony to figure out and to live in. The answer to why was to understand the space and the entire galaxy that everypony was standing in. Theories were, in her opinion, were just a bunch a of blasphemy. Even though everyone only uses about ten to twelve percent of their brain, we can achieve a higher understanding by figuring out almost everything. Sure, there are things that help use seventy-eight to ninety percent of the brain, but to understand the meaning of life and space is the nirvana that all life wishes to gain.

She smiled, and felt amazed over the words she thought in her mind. Her mind is all the proof she needed to prove that knowledge that is unknown can be used, to create a better understanding of everything. Time and space was needed to create this world, and whether it was created by a god or not, the structure of this entire world was intriguing. Luna could not stop thinking. She was oblivious to the world around her, and drifted off into the wonders of everything.

Soarin, thought about how far he had gone in his life. He was willing to go even farther. Soarin smiled, with a passionate and intense fire blazing inside of him. He was happy that he was known throughout the world, but he wanted to change the world in a good way. He wanted to prove that he was not just some Wonderbolt. He wanted to be the wonders of this world. Soarin then made a fierce and determined face. If he didn't succeed in trying, he would get back up, and try again, no matter how hard it is to retaliate. The thing that kept Soarin going, was his father. As a young child, his father said to never give up, and to live a life to remember.

He realized that the book of his life was being written by his actions, thoughts, and words. Nothing could stop Soarin from his dream. He wanted to make the world a better place, and also to live a life he would remember. No matter how hard reality is, nothing could ever stop the Wonderbolt.

Suddenly, the Luna's door flew open, causing both Soarin and the princess to recoil back into consciousness, the adrenaline flowing within them. It was the one of the hospital's nurses. She looked concerned.

There's a blue jewel that came out of the creature's stomach.

Mind taking a glance?

Sure,

no problem.

Both Soarin and Luna looked at the azure jewel curiously. It was glowing, and the aura then consumed both of their minds. The aura took form into the word, 'Loyalty.'. The duo inferred that it was the jewel of Loyalty. A basic, but needed element of friendship. But, wait, that didn't make any sense, Luna thought. The dragon did not represent any loyalty whatsoever. She looked at Soarin curiously.

Soarin,

was there any tales or examples of the dragon's Loyalty?

There was...

There was a tale in which the dragon used to be lonely, but gentle.

The dragon had no friends, which caused him to be lonely.

He also wanted a friend, and he had no intention of harming the world or life.

And so, an unknown pony talked to the dragon,

and became friends with the gentle creature.

They became the bestest of friends,

and lived together happily,

years after years.

But, there was a consequence.

Yes. The pony was dying,

and asked the dragon to hear his/her wish.

What was their wish?

To protect the world of everything that brought the world disharmony.

Of course, the dragon was loyal, and carried out the pony's wish.

Why did he attack us, then?

I can only assume he was being controlled, or he was angry.

By who then?

I do not know.
