Today

After an hour of flying and looking at my surroundings, one of the guards notify me on where I am, "Sir, we are at our next destination." he says, catching my attention, as we land in the center of town, all the residents come out to see why a chariot flew by, as soon as I step out of the chariot, everyone is startled by my appearance and starts whispering, I think I heard someone ask why I was here, I chuckle, "ladies and gentlemen, you must be wondering why I'm here," everyone gasps, "I am just here to get someone, does anyone know where a pony named Luna is?" a lot of the ponies started whispering when a purple pony stepped up claiming she knew where she was, when I asked where she was, she said that she was in Canterlot, I sigh, "Thank you Ponyville for you're time." with that, I get back into my chariot a tell the guards we are going to Canterlot.

45 minutes later, we arrive at the gates to the castle, ignoring the nobles giving me questioning glances, I walk up to the gates and the guards also give me a questioning glace, but notice my crown and open the gates, as I walk through the castle, all the staff give me glaces but nothing more, I reach the doors to the throne room and open them, as the doors open, Celestia stands from her throne, I notice Luna sitting next to her, I tell the guards not to let anyone in, then I walk up to Celestia and Luna and bow, "Your highnesses." I ask standing back up at them, both of the ponies looking at me warily,

"And, who might you be? There has not been an alicorn in years that I am aware of ." she asks, still wary, I smile with my answer,
"My name is Night Aura, but you may call me Prince long night." after I say my name both of their eyes widen and Luna stands up and walks to the front, eyeing me,
"If you are as thou says thou are, then thee must prove it." she says stomping the ground causing a few cracks to form in the ground, I smile and close my eyes, imagining my original form, two legs two hands and a body, with that I open my eyes and smile, shadows pulling all to me, surrounding me in a sphere, Luna gasping and taking a step back, recognizing the magic coming from the sphere, shadow magic, only two people in the world could do shadow magic, her, and her husband, just as the realization hit her, the shadows cleared, showing me in front of her wearing clothes of a king, as well as a crown and full set of armor, a happy, yet malicious grin on his face.

"HUSBAND, IT IS THOU!" she yells lunging at the bipedal figure with a earsplitting grin and tears streaming down her face, they both meet each other in a hug and a kiss, Celestia happy at seeing her brother-in-law once again, the couple break apart for the prince to start rubbing Luna's cheek,
"Luna, 'tis good to see you again, I thought I would never see you again when you where banished." I say looking up at Celestia and giving her a stink eye, "Did you get my song?" I ask her looking back at Luna, she smiles and nods,
"Thou never forgot me, did thou get thy's song?" she asks back, I nod,
"Could never forget your voice, 'tis as sweet as honey and as soft as butter." I answer back, remembering the song she sang to gather her "children", she blushes, but I just smile even more.

Celestia smiles, getting up from her spot on the throne and walking to us, "It is good you see you again, dear brother, what have you been doing as of late, if I am mistaken, you should have been dead by now?" she says, I smile and nod,
"Indeed, but I have found something to avoid it," I waved to the necklace hanging on my neck, which both Celestia and Luna just noticed, "remember when everyone in the lab was sneaking around, well, I was the cause of that, many tries and fails, and a couple of mutations later, this is made," I say taking the necklace off, " this very necklace helps me live like an alicorn, magically, strength wise, and aging wise, and no one can use this necklace at all, a small security measure to make sure no one can take it for themselves, not even you gals." I say putting the necklace back on.

Celestia looks at me with surprise, then to questioning glances, "Interesting, but we have more important things to discuss now, such as to where you have been all this time, one does not live nowhere for one thousand years and come out looking like you, espesially with guards no less?" she says moving the topic on, again I smile.

"Ah, yes, my whereabouts, I figured you would ask, tell me, have you heard of the kingdom of the forgotten?" they just glance at me, "Thought so, okay then, have you noticed some of you're ponies disappear?" she nods, "Well, what would you do if I told you I was the reason that your ponies disappear?" she blinks surprised, "Indeed, in fact, I've started a kingdom full of all species that have been mistreated in any way, actually, that is the whole reason I've come here, is to pick up Luna," both of their heads snap my way, "Yes, my kingdom's people are getting impatient for their queen, they have waited one thousand years, in fact, the whole reason Luna is back, is because of me, a small miscast pushed Luna to the small town of ponyville," again they looked shocked from the information "So that means..." I interrupt Luna before she could finish, "Yes, love, your original landing was intended to be in my kingdom.," Celestia's turn to gasp.

"But enough talk, we have an important matter at hand," I turn to Luna kneeling in front of her again, "Luna would you do the pleasure of being my queen and being by my side?" I ask, just like when I asked her to marry, she just looks nervous but doesn't speak, I stand back up, towering above her,"I will give you time, however, I can only stay here for two days, I have a kingdom to take care of, I will be waiting." I say walking out of the throne room, closing the door behind me, heading to find a room to stay in over the next two nights, as I find the room I'm staying in, my guards finally find me and catch up to me.

"How was the talk sir?" one of my guards ask, trotting up to his position next to me,
"It wasn't bad sarge, finally getting to see my wife again, waiting thousands of years can make one anxious." I say as I enter my room, and they stop just outside my door, as I'm unpacking the guards knock on my door, "Yes?" I ask,
"Princess Luna wishes to talk to you sir." the guard answers,
"Send her in." I say as I finish putting up my belongings, the door opens to a dark blue princess, "And what do I have the honors of this visit to?" I say bowing rhetorically, she smiles,

"thou always was one for jokes." she says still smiling, I smile back,
"Well, life would be boring if no one joked around." I say "But seriously, what are you here for?" I ask putting on a serious face.
"thou just wanted to know how thy husband is doing, thou's short talk didn't tell us much." she says
"I am doing fine love, a little stressed, but that is normal for a leader of a kingdom."
"Ah 'tis true, we wish that were not true, but it is." she says, her ears splaying backward, I just smile and reach for the back of her head, scratching her. After a bit of snuggling later, I have to bring up a certain topic,
"Though I appreciate this, I have a feeling that you came here for more than just checking on me." I ask her, she gets up, her ears splaying back again.

"Thee speaketh the truth, we were curious about the reason you are here." she asks
"Ah, well, as I said in the throne room, I come looking for you."I answer
"Why?"she asks again, causing me confusion.
"What do you mean?" I reply, getting up as well
"Why, I have just returned by thy's sisters side, and thou already wishes to separate me from her again?!" she exclaims
"Again, I came for you."
"But must thee take thou away already? Why can't thee just come to thy's home?"
"Luna, it is hard to just give up on a kingdom one day." I say
"Then just join thou's kingdom to ours!" she says, yet again
"NEVER!!" I yell, "Luna, you might not know, because you were in the moon the entire time, but your sister, Celestia, didn't care that you were in the moon! I asked her if she was going to try and get you out, but she just ignored me half the time, the other half, she laughed at me!!!" she looks at me, shocked and upset,
"But our dear sister cares for us much! she said so herself!" she exclaims, clearly worried,
"Luna, just because one says, does not me they do. What has she done for you as of late?" I ask her, she just looks down, trying to defend her sister, but coming up with nothing. "I thought so, Luna, please, for the love of all things good, please come with me, it will be much better there!" I say, pleading for her to join me in my kingdom.

"Fairy well, but thy must get things settled with thy sister first." she replies, quickly leaving the room.

later

"HE TOLD YOU WHAT!!!" Celestia yelled in the middle of the throne room, fuming with anger because of what she just heard her sister say,
"We thought that thou stopped using thou's Canterlot voice years ago!?" Luna mumbled, rubbing her ears to hopefully stop the ringing happening in her ears, which wasn't stopping, at all,
"I'm sorry sister, but, just, WHAT!!! I would never do that to my sister!!! He was lying!! He was the one that ran away from Equestria!!! And notice did he say anything about you, why, I'm surprized I didn't kick him out myself!!!" Celestia ranted, taking a few calming breaths before calmly walking down to her sister, who was walking around the room, looking at the beautiful Windows depicting the elements of harmony banishing her evil side away and cleansing her soul, as well as rubbing her ears, still.

"I'm sorry sister, I was foolish to even think of listening, he does have a habit of lying to us..." She says thinking about his behaviors,
"It's okay Luna, it is natural to believe ones husband, rather than their own sister." Celestia says, waving it off, happy that her sister has seen reason.
"I must talk to him!!! I will be right back, sister." Luna says, stomping out of the throne room in anger, heading for her husbands room.

Later, again

" I refuse!!!" Luna says, stomping into her husbands room, fuming.
"I beg your pardon?" I ask, confused as to why my wife was fuming red in anger,
" I said I refuse, do I need to repeat that? You have lied to me ONE too many times, consider me coming to you kingdom severed!!!" She shouts, I just sit down, trying to keeping my face under control, barely making it,
" Very well, I will be leaving this evening, considering your face, you don't want me to be here any longer, but know that my kingdom is highly anticipating you, and will accept you with a snap." I say, letting her out the door, and waving good bye, not that she noticed.

After the beautiful talk I just had with the lady in black, I immediately called one of the guards in and had them help me pack,
" Your highness, if I may ask, why are we packing so early? We have a day until we are expected back." The guard asks, looking at me curiously,
"It is ok sarge, and the reason why? Well let's say that the princess that we came here for doesn't want to come. She barged in here, as you see, and outright refused."
" Oh..." The sarge says, looking a little confused, a little upset, and a little angry.
" Now, help me carry these cases to the chariot, we have a little bit of a ride ahead of us!!" I say to both guards, picking up two of the suit cases and carrying them to the chariot, which I honestly can't understand, these things are just a whole new different, but at least I have my modern teachnology in my kingdom, I notice my guards starting to look downtrodden, I try to cheer them up,
"Don't worry, my faithful followers, it will take time, but she will come to us, I knew this, but I just wanted to give her a try before, and let her know I was here!!!" I say, raising their spirits, and we take off, knowing that things will get better, sooner or later...
