Forced Reboot

"Twilight, I assume you already know why you're here?" celestia said sounding like a disappointed parent.

"I took a soul from another dimension for the project" Twilight quiverred in her seat upon saying this.

"Twilight you should know better than this, you're lucky Nova isn't freaking out about this, or at least that she isn't lashing out about it, if you picked wrong we could have had a clinically insane alicorn running amok, why did you do it, why did you commit such a moral injustice to her?" Celestia continued.

Twilight just sat there quivering for a few seconds before shakily answering, "I-I d-did it because, I couldn't find a compatible soul for the project,"

"Please enlighten me on your idea of 'compatible' please" she added sounding unimpressed

" the soul had to be capable of not freaking out from the process as well as being intelligent, and without the potential to use the power for evil, as well as the capability and willingness to fight when the situation dictates, pleasedontsendmebacktomagickindergartenibegyou,"she just barely managed to say before starting to panic.

"All valid reasons and I can see why you had trouble finding somepony to fit the bill, but you can't just grab somepony, or in this case someone, and do that to them, its morally unthinkable, and I think you may have gotten carried away, I know how you get when the pursuit of knowledge is involved, but there are places that you just don't go, I hope you're understand the severity of this," Celestia continued," but we can't reverse the process without risking permanent damage, and what's done is done, but this doesn't excuse you, you will receive punishment for this once I decide what is fitting, until then, if Nova decides to lash out at you or hurt you physically, I won't stop her,"Celestia said with a disappointed note in her voice.

"I'm sorry princess..." Twilight squeaked out while in tearing up "I-I didn't realise...I...I"

"I'm not the one you should be apologising to, " Celestia said,

Luna's office was cosy and soothing to be in, it was painted in dark tones and had blue accents here and there, Upon seeing Luna I realised how big I actually was, I was about 3 inches shorter than Luna, who looked to be some odd 7 ish feet tall, Celestia was about 8 feet tall by this guesswork. Luna smiled warmly as I stepped to the center of the room, she motioned me to sit down at one of the chairs around a small coffee table depicting a labeled map of the moon. We sat down in the plushy chairs and Luna began to speak.

"Tell us what hath happened, how thy feel, hold nothing back" Luna said in a smooth calm voice.

"Huuuhhhhhh, well I've been holding back my emotions ever since I got here, I just locked them up and focused on logically figuring out what to do," I started, "I've never really let it sink in that I'm stuck here, in a body I dont know, on a planet far from my own, with a species far different from mine, it's just....hard to believe it's just gone... I miss home"

"We understand thy plight to some degree, we hath also been banished from our world, unable to return, if thy need our advice, we shall be here for thee" Luna continued, understanding in her voice, then she hugged me.

"Thanks..." I said still letting everything sink in

"Tell us about your previous life, we wish to know"

"Well.... My original name was David, I went by Dave, I am 25 years old, I had a career in programming, I did blacksmithing, knife collecting and some shooting sports for hobbies, I had a nice life going before it was taken, I know I lived alone but i still miss everyone I knew... I'm still finding it hard to accept" I sighed after saying that, telling as a great weight was lifted from my shoulders.

"We are sorry for thy loss, although we may never understand your burden, we shall do what we can to assist you in recovering, we shall visit with you in your dreams should you need it," Luna said in a quiet and understanding tone.

"Thanks for listening, Princess" I said quietly

"Just Luna, If you would like" she added.

I met up with twilight outside Celestia's Chambers, she was shaken and her eyes bloodshot, whatever Celestia said or decided to punish her with, I think she deserved it. We said nothing as she teleported us back.
