Headcannon of how each princess got to be an alicorn.

Ok guys, I promise this will have 9999999999% more effort into it! The last two stories had been rushed, and I admit that, but a lot of family stuff came up and I'm ready to start something new! This is also going to be an animation later on for myself, but it will be much shorter than the story. It was inspired by Paramore's Let The Flames Begin.

Each title will be formatted like this:

Anon- (Title for chapter) [if more than one part, enter part here]

**Update 5-11-15: Intermission chapters will be formatted like: Name- Stuff [Intermission] THEY ARE SKIPPABLE CHAPTERS! If you want an action-filled story, go ahead and skip. If you want to read the entire story and would rather judge my headcannon and punch it out the door thanksagainhasbro, then please, read on.

{Prologue} Twilight, Cadence, Luna, Celestia- (The First Letters) [Part 1]

It was a lovely morning. The trees slightly swayed as a light breeze flowed through the wind. The sunlight glimmered through the open window in the new crystal castle. Twilight's bedroom had perfect lighting. The purple alicorn still lay in bed softly, sleeping like a foal. Spike, her little dragon was fast asleep in his crystal bed (the cold floor) and his woven blanket of cloth. He snuggled his sewn Rarity plush and snored loudly. Twilight slowly got up. Her navy blue mane was messy, tangled in knots and very difficult to manage without some sort of shower or bath. She yawned and stretched her hooves and legs. With a smack of her lips, she waltzed out of her comfy, satin bed and carefully trotted towards her bathroom. She tip-hooved around Spike, as to not wake him, and entered her bathroom. She turned on the light. Inside the bathroom revealed a normal toilet, a crystal counter with sink built-in, a walk in rainbow shower (most benefits to a pegasus or alicorn), and a bath with enough room for an adult pony, mare or stallion, and a small foal. She trotted towards the shower and turned it on rejuvenate. Rainbow showers could be used with any species of pony. Rainbow showers were designed to give the coat and mane a shiny color, rest sore muscles, and (for pegusai, or any winged species) fix and restore feathers. Twilight waited for the right temperature for rejuvenate, then went in the shower. The cold rush of the rain water woke Twilight in an instant. She jumped up a bit as her hazy mind quickly got up to speed to realize that Spike was calling her.

"Oh Twiiiilllliiiiiiiiight!" he called.

"Spike, I'm kind of busy right now!" she replied, trying to yell so Spike could hear her against the water.

"Princess Celestia sent a letter!" he called back. His footsteps got closer and closer as Twilight quickly tried to cover herself with a white towel made of 100% pure cloth. Even to her levitation magic it was soft to the touch. She tried not to get it wet as she looked at the letter through the glass and read it to herself.

'Dearest Twilight, Please join us at the Canterlot Castle for a big surprise. Please come no earlier than 10:00am and no later than 12:00pm. From, Princess Celestia'

"That isn't very normal of her...." she whispered under her breath. "Spike, please set it on my nightstand so I could read it when I'm done with my shower here." she spoke up a bit. Spike did as he was told, and sat on her bed. He looked for the remote to watch some cartoons. He flipped through the channels as Twilight took her shower. Twilight took her shampoo and ruffled it through her mane and tail. She looked in the mirror next to her and made goofy faces into it at herself. "Lookin' good Twilight!" she said to herself in a lower voice, as to mimic a stallion complimenting her. She giggled to herself as she washed it out, and followed with conditioner. As the conditioner rested in both her mane and tail, she levitated and used a pointy comb to comb it. After spending what seemed an endless amount of time on her mane and tail, she washed out the conditioner. She walked out of her rainbow shower and wrapped herself in her white cloth towel. She trotted towards the sink to brush her mane and tail, drying it as well with her pink hairdryer. She levitated her toothbrush, already prepared with toothpaste, and brushed her teeth. Two minutes pass and she is done, like clockwork. She dries her body off one last time and walks out of the bathroom.

"I'm going to head to Canterlot, do you think you can stay here while I'm gone..?" she asked the purple dragon who sat on her bed, watching cartoons.

"Yeah, just as long as you stammph-" he stuffed his mouth with the popcorn he got from the cabinet in the kitchen. He finished chewing and continued. "-stay in Canterlot, and not go anywhere else." he said.

She nodded in confirmation that she would only stay in Canterlot. She trotted downstairs and out of the castle, but not before waving to the little purple dragon on her bed. She prepared her wings and blasted off to Canterlot. She flew over many clouds, and avoided many ponies flying today. The wind through her mane made the flying experience just that much better. "Barely lift myself off the ground?" she asked herself, quoting Rainbow Dash. "Well you should see me now, Rainbow Dash!" she said. She didn't bother to fly back, who knows where Rainbow would be? Besides, it was 10:30am and she didn't want to waste time. She soon saw the transformation from grassy fields to rocky mountain sides to civilization. She lifted her head up from the ground and got a very welcoming greeting with a large metal pole. She didn't bump into it too hard, but hard enough for her to fall onto the ground and rub her head a bit. She looked like a complete fool. She blushed a light pink to all the ponies around her that went from a daily schedule to staring at the flustered alicorn. "S-sorry..." she whispered. She covered her face with one of her wings, trying to hide her face from shame. She ran towards the castle as fast as she could, until she ran into a sign that said:

'THIS WAY TWILIGHT SPARKLE!'

She followed where the sign pointed to with a purple and pink striped arrow. She opened the yellow door that led to inside the castle.

"Hello?" she asked the empty room with party decorations. "Anypony home?" she asked again.

She jumped up as she was then welcomed with Celestia, Luna, and Cadence's voices at once. "SURPRISE!!!!" they shouted. "Happy Birthday Twilight!"

"I-it's not my birthday...." she said. "Not for another three months...."

"See? I told you it was in November!" Cadence glared at Celestia.

"Well I'm sorry I don't remember!" Celestia replied back.

"How about we just party for the heck of it?" Luna suggested.

The three princesses nodded in agreement, as Twilight trotted towards them. They sat on the couch with chocolate cake and candy corn. They watched movies for hours, then played some games. They played Pin The Tail On The Pony, Go Fish, Hide and Seek, and Truth or dare.

"Alrighty Cadence, truth or dare?" Twilight asked.

"Truth!" Cadence replied.

"Am I allowed to wait to ask her the question and take my turn two more times..?" Twilight asked.

Celestia and Luna nodded in confirmation. Twilight spun the bottle again, which now landed on Celestia. "Truth or dare?" Twilight asked her teacher who sit in front of her.

"Truth..." she replied with slight curiosity. Twilight then spun the bottle again, in this case, landed on Luna.

"Truth or da-" she asked, but was cut off by Luna answering.

"Truth." she said with a blunt tone, obviously knowing Twilight wanted to ask them a question.

Twilight looked at Luna in shock. "Okay, my question is, how did each of you become a princess...?" The three alicorns in front of her turned from a calm expression on their face to an expression very hard to describe. It was almost as if they were shocked and saddened at the same time. Rough seas were about to tread on your journey through each of their lives, Twilight. Each and every detail of their lives.

Author's Note

Prologue, it's supposed to be short. I set myself for a limit. Over 700 and under 3,500. For the main chapters it is over 1,000 and under 5,000. I'm going to make this story the best of my ability. This was done in one day, I will admit, but the prologue is to me, a preview of what is to come. The story will be a different format then most that I've seen. This will be a narration of the characters and of their stories, then describing what happened and how. Almost like how a show starts with a narration and then turns into a whole episode. It may be strange, but it may also be brilliant.

Celestia- (The Sun Rises) [Part 1]

Celestia, the first alicorn to be.... The first princess to rule..

The white alicorn inhaled her first breath and then looked at the purple princess in front of her.

"Well it all started........" she began.

I was a small unicorn, raised in Canterlot by my two parents. My father and mother. My mother had red hair, a white coat, and she was an alicorn. My father was a pegasus, and had star-like fur, with a mane a bit like mine except shorter. He comforted me when mother couldn't, because he also put me to sleep. Just something about him was calming.... like I was carried to the galaxy. When I was about your age when you became my student, I also got my cutie mark. My mother stopped raising the sun and I had to from then on. I decided to become lazy when I got older, and skip my duty on occasion. My mother disapproved and sometimes scolded me. She sent me to my room one time out of many others and I remember I was just sick of it, sick of being responsible for anything... I remember opening my window and standing on the edge of the balcony. I looked down, and it was a bit too high for my taste, but still.... I jumped off, and luckily landed on a patch of soft grass. I started running... I had no idea where to run but I just ran....... away from my troubles as a princess..... Several days passed and I couldn't stand it.... Where was I going...?

"Wh-where am I...? What am I doing..?"

I slowly walk forward a bit, hearing strange noises. The slight breeze startles me, as I quickly run into a bush. The leaves and twigs stick in my mane. I ruffle them out as quick as I can as I hear a low growl. Grrrrr......... I back up slowly, as I hear it also from behind me. I turn around to see what looks like a tree..... My head follows the tree-like figure but then sees a head made out of wood. Timberwolves... I quickly teleport out of their reach and start to run. I hear them catching up behind me as I run faster, the dirt beneath me starting to become softer as it turns into mud, and then soon a pond. Part of my mane flows in front of my eyes and I turn to my right and hit myself in the head with a tree.

"Oww....." I groan. I quickly look back to see if the Timberwolves are still chasing me. Luckily they aren't. I see a small glimpse of civilization up ahead, and start to run.....

THOMP!

A strange noise rings through my ears as I get closer. THOMP!! it goes again. I get closer to the town as I start to hear screams of other ponies. When I transfer my gaze from the other ponies to the source of the sound, I see a strange creature. It was some sort of Centaur. It was red and black, and had big horns that slightly curved. He grabbed ponies and sucked their magic out of them, making their cutie marks disappear. I quickly get out of his sight. I watch, he starts to get closer to me as I shoot him with a heat beam from my mother's raised sun.

"OW!" he yelled. "WHO DARES HIT TIREK WITH THE HEAT OF A THOUSAND SUNS?!"

I hide yet again, hoping that he does not see me. He looks down and menacingly smiles. "Oh look, a new pony's come to town..." he says to me. I gulp as I use a teleportation spell to get back to the forest, where I am greeted by the hungry Timberwolves again. I teleport back, and thankfully enough Tirek is out of sight. I try to run towards a magic shop, where they sell spell books and other sorts of ancient relics and stuff. I find a book with a skull on it. The material of the cover is red leather. The bookmark sticking out from under it is made of cloth. I turn to it and start to read the words inscribed aloud, only to realize it was in O'l Unicornian. "Hem noyiam consui Neyh osuke soy hosueh...." I chant, as my mind is suddenly filled with dark thoughts. All I can see is green and purple. I float up and black out. When I wake up only a few seconds later I see I cast a shield over the town. I see I also trapped the Centaur in as well. I walk out of the magic shop, levitating the dark magic book with me. I look up at Tirek.

"You don't belong here, you belong where demons like you dread to go..." I said to him. He looked back at me, laughing. I look down at the book as I feel the rage overthrow my sanity. "YOU DESERVE TO ROT IN JAIL WITH CERBERUS GUARDING YOUR CORPSE! YOU ARE HURTING INNOCENT PONIES AND THAT IS NOT GOOD FOR ANYONE! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!" I yell, in a demonic tone. The magic now levitating the book has turned from a pale yellow to a dark red.

Tirek chuckles. "You think you have the power to defeat me..?" he asks. "I can beat you even if you were the most powerful alicorn on this planet!"

I look up at him. I use a constricting spell on his neck. His face turns from red to purple, as I shoot an energy beam towards him at sheer speed. My sanity is slowly draining with the more I use my dark magic. He looks at me with mercy. I let him go with the constricting. He gasps for breath. "A bit worn out...?" he asks, thinking I was done with him. He blasts an energy beam back at me, which was probably as big as him if not bigger. Quickly before he can shoot at me, I put up a shield to protect me. He looks down at me. I look up at him. I use a missile tactic by shooting dark and light magic spurts at his horns. Three shots, one horn down. Three shots, the other's down for the count. He starts to shrink, his magic depleting as I teleport him to Royal Canterlot Jail, with a sign that says: I am a criminal, arrest me. I laugh a bit as there is a strange heat that comes in contact with me. It starts to burn as I close my eyes to blink and am suddenly in a turquoise room with white stars. I see I am also walking on a path of those said stars. I follow it to a long hall.

"Hello...? Am I dead....?" I ask the empty room. My voice echoes through the room, as my mother starts to appear. "Mom!" I shout out of sheer joy.

"Hello Tia." she replies to me, as she guides me through the hall. Screens start to show up and display some of my memories from when I got my cutie mark and when I just defeated Tirek. She sings to me as song that I really don't pay that much attention to. She then asks me the three words I never forget from her....

"Are you ready..?"

I nod my head as a white light comes from my chest. I starts to circle around me at rapid speed as I see I start to levitate upwards. A white light starts to generate as well from the orb of light. My life flashes before my eyes as I feel wings start to grow out of my back. The bones start to form, and the feathers start to grow. It feels a bit painful, but I hold back my tears enough to close my eyes once more. I am suddenly teleported to my room. I stretch out my new wings and my hooves. I walk out of my room to greet my father and mother, who are sitting on the couch.

"Mom, dad? I have something I need to tell yo-"

"No, we have some news we need to tell you." my mother cuts me off. She looks to my father, who then looks back at me.

"You're going to have a little Unicorn sister!" they both exclaim. I look at them in sheer shock and amazement. "Her name is going to be Luna!" my mother adds. I quickly look at my new wings and back at them. Wings, then them. Wings, then them. I stop switching my gaze for a moment and open my mouth as to say something, but can't. I rethink what I want to say, and inhale to utter the words.

"SO I BECAME AN ALICORN FOR NOTHING?!" I shout.

Author's Note

Okay. Okay. OKAY! I HEARD ENOUGH HATE ABOUT THE CHAPTER BEFORE EVEN PUBLISHING IT! I get it. This one isn't like Tia.. Well, she's still a young mare and will be more like herself in the next chapter. I will try to upload new chapters every other week, but I may be late for in mass production at times.

Celestia- (The Sun Falls) [Part 2]

Author's Note

Before you read this, there is no part 3. I just couldn't think of a way to end this without a cliffhanger of some sort. Prepare for Artlestia, Sadlestia, Motherlestia, and Sistlestia. Lots of feels, so grab tissues.

Celestia- (The Sun Falls) [Part 2]

I looked at my parents in shock. My mother's gaze at me turned from a happy delight to a scolding glare. "Now you listen here young lady, you will not have that tone with your sister around, and you certainly won't have it around now!" she says to me. "Go to your room, and let the news sink in a bit, since it was so sudden..." I sigh and hang my head down as I slowly walk up the stairs. My light pink mane flows slower than before, as I shed a single tear from my right eye. I feel sadder with each step I take upstairs. I open the door slowly, look back at my parents, and walk in my room. I look out my window; it's time for me to lower the sun. I open my window again and use what magic I can conjure up to lower it. I don't have enough to raise the moon, and I'm afraid to ask my parents to raise it for me. I gain the courage to ask them and slightly crack open my door.

"Mom...? Dad....? I-i don't have enough energy to raise the moon right now..... Is it okay if one of you does it for me this one time....?" I ask. They look back at me.

"We never taught you to raise the moon.... I said we would teach you how to later on.... Sweetie, you will learn how to later on, so you can teach your sister." she replies to me in a sweet, soft tone like silk. I smile back and nod. I close my door quietly and use my magic to turn on a light. I go to my window to see my mother must be raising the moon from the living room. I smile as each star slowly rises and my sadness fades away. I close my window and look at my room. The off-white carpet with a golden sun-shaped rug, a flatscreen TV, a closet that is another room, and a queen sized bed. The bed is a princess style bed, white fabric curtains hanging from the sides to give an elegant, yet casual look, the white sheets, and the comforter that is laced with a gold thread, white fabric, and has my cutie mark on it. There is a little plush of my mother on the bed, in front of several pillows. Most of them have covers, but the two that are in front do not. They have a sun and moon on each. I run up to my bed and jump onto it. Every time I bounce higher, I try to fly with my new wings. SUCCESS! An idea pops into my head at the blank, rounded ceiling. I stop bouncing and grab some arts and crafts supplies on the nightstand next to my desk. I fly upwards and start to paint. I paint a mural of the sun, the moon, the crystal heart, and the middle symbol in the Tree of Harmony. I draw each element of harmony as each holds a jewel. The color of the sun shows a glistening gold, the moon a glow-in-the-dark white, the crystal heart is a light and bright turquoise, and the final symbol is a pink and white mix, with little white specks.

I wipe the sweat off of my forehead with my hoof, finishing the painting and flying down. I look at it from my bed and it is marvelous. I put the paint and brushes away. I sigh with relief and look up at my masterpiece. I go towards my desk and sit in the chair. The blue painted wood with a navy blue placemat has a gold Marebook on it. I open it up and watch some MeTube. A few hours later I yawn, and close my laptop. I see it is late, 12:01 am.... I trot over to my bed and jump in, snoring softly as I drift away into a dream.

"W-wha...? Wheere am I-i??"

I suddenly have sight of my surroundings; a grassy field, the castle in the distance, my mother and I learning how to raise the.... moon? Am I in the future? I look at myself to see that my body has a glowing outline.... Yep, i'm definitely in a dream. I see that I can now know how to raise the moon. I try it in the dream, and it works. I hear a soft ring in the background, and try to tune it out. It keeps getting louder and my eyes shoot open like I just got shot by lightning. I see that I need to raise the sun... I do that and then close my curtains, it's too bright in here. I go to my separate bathroom and look at myself in the mirror. My eyes show that I stayed up WAY too late. I splash water on my face and wipe it off with one of the cotton towels nearby. I yawn and put the towel on the rack where it was. I walk out of the bathroom and go to open the big door leading out to the hallway where the stairs are. I hear some faint yelling.

"WELL ITS NOT MY FAULT THAT WE CANT TAKE HER!!" I hear in a voice that sounds like my mother's.

"Honey, please calm down... you might wake Tia.." the father-like voice responds.

"I CAN'T CALM DOWN, MY BABY IS COMING!!!" Mother shouts again. I move my ear away from the door, and back away slowly...

"I'm going to have a baby sister!!!!" I exclaim, bouncing in circles and flying a bit with each bounce. I open my door softly and carefully as to not make a sound. What I see is phenomenal. My mother, who was just shouting a few minutes ago, has a small unicorn laying near her. She is a rich, navy blue color, with a galaxy-like mane (similar to my dad's). Her behind, however, looks like black paint was splattered onto it. She looks up at my mother, who is kissing her forehead. I smile and tear up a bit. "Welcome to the family..." I whisper to myself.

I go downstairs quietly, meeting my new baby sister immediately. She rolls over, and tries to stand up. With mom's help, she starts to trot towards me. I lay on my stomach to make it easier for her to see me. She looks at me and smiles. "Tia~!" she utters joyfully. She knew my name.... but how?

It has been 12 years since Luna was born, and 10 since father died. Mother is dying of pneumonia. I look at my poor mother, who can barely talk at the moment. Her formerly bright, ruby red mane is now faded into the stained-red lipstick esque color. Her deep, blue eyes are fading away, and are currently a blueish-grey color. I lay my head onto her chest, sobbing quietly. She kisses the back of my head, and rubs my neck softly.

"T-tia..." she utters. My ears perk up, trying to listen to what she is going to say. "Before I pass.... can you p-please do me a simple favor..?"

I nod, the side of my face slightly ruffling her coat. "Please teach Luna how to raise the moon.... I cannot do it anymore, and you are the only other pony who knows it..." she asks. My eyes widen. I look at her in the eye with sympathy and hope.

"I will, I promise.." I say, as I kiss her cheek and go to Luna to teach her how to raise it. The clock says 8:45pm, and it is time to raise the moon.

"Luna, now I have a question.." I ask her.

"What?" she replies.

"Do you want to learn how to raise the moon..?"

"YESYESYESYESYESYES!!!" she bounces around me.

"Okay, now focus.. try to focus on levitating the moon...." I say.

I see Luna with her eyes closed tight, her legs firmly standing her ground. Her horn starts to show a bit of sparking, as I see the moon slowly raise up. As the moon raises, so does my sister. I use my magic to create a wall so she does not fly up any higher. The moon is fully raised, and I see that the lights from my mother's hospital room in the castle has many pony silhouettes showing. I smile at Luna and quickly drag her with me to her room. I see the doctor turning off the machines, unplugging her and putting a sheet over her. "Celestia... I have some bad news..." the doctor says to me. This can't be good, as I follow him to another room. He tells me that mother has passed, and that I now have to raise Luna by myself.

Luna looks up at me, my hooves covering her ears. She sees that my eyes are tearing up, as we leave the hospital room and go to our separate rooms. I hear a knock on my door, and open it with my magic. Luna stands there and asks a question that I will never forget.

"Does that mean we are both rulers of Equestria..?"

Luna- The Second [Intermission]

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Luna- (The Reign of the Night) [Part 1]

"Alright Luna, just focus on picturing the moon rise.."

My sister always got the glory, taking whatever respect I had for my night....

My name is Luna Moonlight Equis, but you can just call me Luna! I was born about 12 years before my mother's death, and 5 years before my father's. I was raised mostly by my sister, Celestia. She was always praised for her sun. She was also, the most powerful pony in all of Equestria. She could withhold the Elements of Harmony, all at once. She was loyal, honest, generous, silly when need be, kind, and magical. I, however, was childish, immature, fun, nice, and a bit of an outcast. I didn't socialize much, and when I did I was very bad at it. I would get nervous, shaky even. I would stutter at every word and I wouldn't know what to say.

"Tia?" I asked, galloping wonderfully around her legs.

"What is it Luna?" she replies.

"Why do you have wings, and I only have a horn?"

"Luna, you have to earn your wings..."

"How do I earn them?"

"By doing something extraordinary."

I smiled widely. "How do I do something extraordinary?"

Tia laughed softly, my mispronunciation of extraordinary must have been humoring to her at the time. She started walking towards her room. It was painted with symbols I didn't understand. "Have a seat..." she said to me, her voice calm and collected. "I'm going to tell you something, and you have to promise not to be mad at me, okay?"

I looked up to her with eyes filled with wonder. I nodded my head up and down furiously.

"Mother gave me my wings." she said. I gasped. She gave my sister wings, and not me?! Why? What did I do wrong? Am I not special?! I felt a rush of anger more powerful than plain emotion. I looked Tia in the eye, then turned around. Her hoof reached out as to pet me for comfort, yet I ran out of her room and locked the doors to mine.

KNOCK KNOCK!

"Luna? Can you please come out..?" she opened the door. I was face-in-hooves, crying my eyes out. I could hear her hoofsteps come closer to me. I got up and turned around quickly.

"TIA! GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" I yelled. I could swear that my voice echoed around the entire castle. Her face has a look of distraught plastered on.

"Luna... Stop this behavior at once!" she demanded.

"Make me!" I shout back.

"You're grounded!" she yelled back. My eyes filled with more tears as I used my magic to slam my doors shut. I could feel a rush of anger in my head, but I quickly guarded it. I felt upset, sad, and angry. I levitated my empty spell book and started writing profusely. Spell after spell after spell and nothing added up. Five hours seemed to pass by rather quickly as I finally get a spell working correctly. My mind became foggy, but there was a small vision inside my head after it was cast.

"Luna, I am tired of your reckless behavior!"

Is that Tia?

"Well, I'm tired of you getting all the glory!"

Did I just say that...?

"Luna you know very well everypony appreciates your night." Celestia looked a bit worried, as the look on Luna's face became dark and grim.

"They will appreciate it for an eternity...." My mouth copied the words from the vision, my eyes closing and the spell being activated in the real world, instead of the vision. I am awoken from a sudden CLANK! I open my door to see nothing is broken. I go over to Tia's room to check and make sure she is alright. I see she is lying on the floor, unconscious.

"Oh no..." I whisper. I look at my surroundings, for water, something... just SOMETHING to wake her up. I go to the kitchen as fast as I can and get a glass of ice cold water. I teleport back to her room, glass wrapped in my magic of levitation. I turned it and the water splashed on her face. She is a very light sleeper, so the smallest noise woke her up.... but why isn't she waking up...?

Why....?

I get a larger glass of water, and try this over and over again, hoping it would work each time. After about 5 attempts of this, I fall to my knees, head resting on her chest. "Please... don't be dead..." I pray. I bury my head into her chest deeper, using my levitation to wrap her hoof around me as a last hug. Tears start to roll down my face. "I just killed my sister....."

Buh bum.... buh bum....

My ears perk up and clear every sound out except for one...

Buh bum.. Buh bum..

'Heartbeat!'

The tears roll down my face even more, a frown turning into a smile in mere seconds. "I didn't kill you... You can't die... Not yet.... Not for a long time..." I manage to get myself up on all fours again and levitate her to her bed. Thank goodness she raised the sun already. I head back to my room to look at my spell book again, and see the spell I wrote has a few words in O'l Equestrian that makes somepony fall into...... Eternal sleep... I had to find a way to reverse it! I couldn't stand to see her lifelessly asleep for all eternity! I started flipping through textbooks and not finding anything to reverse the spell. But then it clicked.

I wrote it in anger and destruction. That's how she almost fooled me into thinking she died... If I write the spell in purity and happiness....

My eyes shimmered against the sunlight, as I started to work.

Author's Note

This chapter I tried to do while the story was on Hiatus. I lost a bit of inspiration for the Luna chapters because it feels Hasbro has explained how she became a princess already. Somehow I have a lot of inspiration for the Cadence and Twilight chapters to come, but not the Celestia or Luna chapters. Expect Hiatus to not last for much longer after Luna is done, but expect a buttload of chapters to be written after this goes back in production!

Luna- (The Decent) [Part 2]

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.
