Twilight's Escort

***Canterlot Palace***

Celestia rubs her hooves against her eyes until they burn and her vision becomes fuzzy. The tears had finally stopped, but she feared the heartache would never go away. Celestia looks around her desk at the growing towers of papers she was ignoring. How could she work in the state she was in? Celestia lets out a frustrated growl and swipes her hoof across the desk, scattering the papers all around the study.

"You... You drove her away..." Celestia mutters to herself. "I drove her away!"

Celestia takes a desk weight in the cloud of her magic and prepares to throw it at the door, but at that moment, the door opens and Luna pokes her head inside.

"Sister, is this a bad time?" Luna asks cautiously as she eyes the paper weight.

Celestia's glare softens. She sighs and puts the weight back on her desk.

"No, Luna... Come in."

The blue mare accepts the invitation and trots inside. She tries to avoid stepping on the paper that was scattered all over the room, but that was an impossible task. Several sheets of paper cling to her hooves as she desperately tries to shake them off.

"What is, Luna?" Celestia asks as she sits back down at her desk.

Luna lowers her head.

"I... I have not seen you in over a day, dear sister. I was worried about you."

Celestia eyes her carefully.

"You... we're worried about me?"

Luna nods quickly.

"Sister, I feel terrible about the whole incident. Truly, you must beileve me when I tell you I had no idea of your relationship with Twilight Sparkle when I seduced her. I know this isn't the first time I've... taken a lover of yours... but I want to put that in the past."

"Twilight was special to me, Luna..." Celestia snarls. "You may have just sought her out for your own sexual desires, but I wanted her love and companionship. I... I cared so much for her..."

Luna's gaze drops. Celestia's words had hurt her, because they were actually true. Luna's first intentions were to use Twilight for sex.

"You are right, sister... At first, I was only trying to use her for sexual pleasure. I regret that, but at the same time, I don't regret it at all."

Celestia cocks her head.

"What do you mean, Luna?"

Luna smiles and puts her hooves around Celestia's neck.

"I fell in love with her, sister, just like you did..." Luna says softly. "But we both have to move on. Twilight is... unavailable these days..."

Now, Luna had Celestia's complete attention. Celestia opens her mouth to speak as Luna pulls away and takes a seat in on e of the chairs in front of the desk.

"How is she 'unavailable'?" Celestia asks.

Luna shrugs as she pulls a letter out from behind her.

"I intercepted this letter from her pet dragon to your desk just a few minutes ago. I know you hate it when I do that, but this one was just to tempting..."

Celestia snatches the letter out of Luna's grasp and tears it open. Celestia eyes the golden ring inside, and she begins to sniffle. Celestia pulls the letter out and begins to read.

*Dear... Princess Celestia...

          This past week has been an adventure for me. Not the kind of adventure I am used to, the kind with my friends, but it was an adventure I have never had before. I wish it didn't end the way it did, but there are some things you just can't fight. I send this letter to you as an apology for the mess my adventure made. Inside this letter are important documents. I'm not asking you to read them or even care about them. All I ask is that you sign your name when prompted and approve the transfer of one of your palace guards, Storm Rider, to my castle.

          Always your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle*

"So?" Luna asks. "What do you think, Tia? Is Twilight Sparkle's hot flank off of the market?"

Celestia sits back in her chair as she reads the letter again.

"A Royal Guard, no less! Twilight is quite the stud, isn't she?" Luna says with a chuckle. "I think you should do it, sister."

"What? Why in Equestria would I approve of this?" Celestia demands. "Twilight leaves me, and she expects a favor? Not happening!"

Luna sits forward, her eyes burning into Celestia's.

"Sister, if you truly love Twilight and care for her like you just told me you did, you will approve of this transfer." Luna says in a low tone. "Sister, I want her to be happy, and I know you do too. If letting Twilight be with this mare, this Royal Guard is what makes her happy, than you WILL approve of it."

Celestia stares blankly at the document. There was only one blank that needed to be filled out. It needed her signature. Luna's words echoed in her mind.

"I want her to be happy..." Celestia mutters quietly.

"What was that, sister?" Luna asks.

A smile cracks along Celestia's lips.

"I want her to be happy." Celestia says again, louder this time.

Luna grins from ear to ear as she watches Celestia pick up a pen and scratch down her signature, approving the transfer.

"There..." Celestia says as she drops the pen. "It is done..."

Luna stands and leans over the desk so her face is level with Celestia's.

"I'm proud of you, sister..." Luna whispers before planting a quick kiss on her sister's lips.

The show of affection shocked Celestia's but it wasn't unwelcome. The white mare grins and pulls Luna into a hug over the desk.

"I love you, sister..." Luna moans as Celestia's grip around her tightens.

"I am grateful for your advice, Luna." Celestia chuckles as she pulls away. "Usually, it is I who has to keep you on the narrow path."

Luna leaps forward so she is sitting on Celestia's desk, startling the white mare.

"I was... actually thinking about a different path, sister..." Luna says softly as she inches closer to Celestia.

Celestia blushes bright red as she begins to understand.

"W-Wait a minute, Luna, we can't-"

"We can't 'what', have a little fun? I'd say we both need a little fun after breaking up with Twilight..."

With her back to the wall, there was nowhere for Celestia to go. Luna pins her to the wall as she stands up on her hind legs.

"Send the letter..." Luna orders in a seductive tone. "Then, I'll show you how I got Twilight Sparkle to scream as loud as a griffon in heat..."
