Chapter 1 Are You Ok?

Luna tossed and turned in bed violently sweating profusely, dreaming about the time Celestia sent her to the moon for one thousand years or at least until Nightmare Night. Fearing her dream was too much, Luna sat up quickly breathing heavily with sweat dripping down her face as she tried to regain what's left of her sanity. She sat back into the hard crescent moon style bedding thinking about how that battle began, silent whispering got into Luna's head and she covered her eyes desperately trying to avoid that awful sound.

"Get out of my head!" Luna shouted squeezing her eyes shut.

Tia did this to you Luna, you should kill her and take her throne one whispering voice that sounded soothing but Luna ignored it.

Luna got out of bed then walked out of her dark room where the voices disappeared...for now which was good for Luna at least. Her sister Celestia just finished helping some flower ponies set up a garden outside the castle to make it more beautiful.

That;s when she noticed Luna starting to have a twitching eye because of the voices telling her things like Kill her, Rape her, Hypnotize her to kill herself, or the worst one of all Make her your salve and little cum slut.

Luna's body was shivering with those thoughts circling her mind in repeat like a mockingbird.

"Sister are you ok? You look very twitchy" Celestia asked concerned about the sudden gyrations her sister was making.

Luna snapped out of whatever trance she was in and blinked twice before looking up at the sun princess curiously.

"Yes I am fine, just a little jittery from the coffee that's all" Luna lied to hide her real problem.

Celestia placed a single hoof on her younger sister's shoulder smiling brightly.

"Um sister what are you doing?" Luna asked confused with a half smile.

That smile would quickly turn into fright as Celestia's face melted away only showing a skull that rolled over to Luna. The skull laughed maniacally as Luna backed up into a corner fearing that this would be the end, skulls flooded the main foyer in a pool that sunk Luna down.

She struggled to swim away but it was too much and she screamed her awake still in bed sweating so much it was ridiculous.

It was a dream? Luna wondered.

Getting out of bed, the lunar princess trotted outside to see butterflies flying everywhere and ponies going about their daily business. Luna breathed a sigh of relief that is until a familiar voice rang into her ears.

"Lu-na!" Celestia called out in a sing song tone.

She gulped hard and trotted slowly to her. Please let this not be a dream again Luna hoped this time that Celestia's face wouldn't melt off.

Celestia gave her a big exciting hug smiling warmly. "Did you sleep well dear Luna?" Celestia asked wondering.

Luna gave a slight nod.

"Are you certain? I don't mind if you want to talk about what's wrong" Celestia wasn't sure about Luna but offered help if needed.

"No no everything's fine" Luna lied managing a fake half smile.

Celestia placed a single hoof on her younger sister and she could hear the sound of her heart beating very loudly.

Luna's eyes widen but were quickly diminished when Tia hugged her again.

"Alright but if something comes up you can always come and talk to me" Celestia reminded Luna if she needs somepony yo talk about a problem and steps to solve it.

Luna nodded again quickly trotting outside for some fresh air to relieve some tension and calm the voices playing in her mind.

Maybe Twilight has some kind of spell to help Luna thought running to the castle of Friendship.

Doing some last minute dusting Twilight hummed a tune while cleaning dust from old books she read as a filly until one fell with a loud thump setting the alicorn princess on edge.

"What the?" Twilight levitated the mysterious black book that had sliver linings around the cover with the words saying: Voices of the Damned

Twilight almost opened it before she heard a knock at the door so she set the book down to answer the door.

She opened the door revealing Princess Luna who was still shivering and shaking like a leaf.

"P-Princess Luna are you alright?" Twilight asked opening the door to let her inside.

As soon as she trotted almost shakily inside the castle before having a seat in a chair still hearing voices circulating through her head.

"Luna you don't look so good. Hang on I'll go make you some tea" Twilight said running to the kitchen.

A sudden hoof grabbed her, pulling Twilight into a deep kiss. Twilight blushed red desperately trying to slither her way out but to no avail as Luna made out with her, moaning between kisses.

What's gotten into her? Twilight wondered.

With one smack of their lips and a saliva trail from their mouths, Twilight backed up quickly breathing heavily at what just happened. Luna bolted outside in both embarrassment and betrayal of her own thoughts taking control of her and making her kiss Twilight forcefully.

A lone hooded mare with dark red hair with a hurricane like cutie mark symbol on her flank. She watched as the lunar princess ran away with tears streaming down her face. Removing the hood, this mare decided to follow Luna all the way back to Canterlot and into her room where she laid face buried in her pillow crying.

This poor mare can't keep her thoughts together...such a pity she thought.

Luna looked up and immediately got into a fighting stance. "State your business or face my wrath!"

"Be still Luna I am not here to fight you" she said raising her hoof in surrender. "I heard your cries and feel pity for you Luna...the utmost shameful pity for you."

Luna's mind swirled around the words, this mare was saying but wasn't able to comprehend what she tried telling her.

"For I am an archangel pony" she said.

The Lunar princess' eyes widen in complete shock in that sudden statement.

Chapter 2 Shock

Twilight then got thrown out of the wall onto the outside skidding all over with Serenity walking towards the purple alicorn princess.

"You trying to fight me Miss Sparkle won't help you" Serenity said lifting Twilight up a little.

"Why are you doing this?" Twilight tried to say.

She put her down and walked back into the castle to grab that black book with sliver linings around it and placed it into her saddle bag.

Luna fired a warning shot at her making Serenity drop the book.

"That's far enough you little archangel" Luna proclaimed standing in front of her angrily.

"You must be Luna...I do believe that we met before" Serenity said staring at her blankly.

"I will not let you take over this world for as long as I still breathe" Luna said, a soft breeze blowing through her sparkling blue mane.

Serenity admired Luna's determination but was cut off with a headbutt into a bookshelf knocking down some books on her. Luna levitated her 10 ft above ground then tossed the archangel through the glass window breaking through it.

"I will not stop until your done with and out of my village!" Luna proclaimed.

Serenity got up, struggled a little bit but managed to stand up. "Princess Luna you fighting me is not going to help you" Serenity tried to warn her.

"I don't care about that! I am sick of you haunting me!" Luna shouted punching her repeatedly in the face.

Serenity couldn't cover herself to stop Luna's explosive punches. A large gust of wind blew her back up in the sky giving Serenity enough time to recover.

She jumped up to kick Luna's stomach hard sending her down like a meteor falling from the sky.

The ground shattered causing a deadly shockwave that created a mammoth sized crater with Luna's body on it with blood trickling down her face.

Looking down, Serenity flew down to what could be left of Luna's broken battered body. The crater was large enough to make a massive hole where Luna laid with blood going down her face and body, some almost covered her cutie mark.

I warned you about this Princess but you never listened and now here you are Serenity looked down at Luna with a blank look on her face.

All of a sudden a blue magical energy blast blew her back a few feet away, sending her tumbling through dirt and soil. Luna struggled to stand upright letting the blood drip all the way down to the ground breathing heavily.

"I.....am not....going to be bested...by....an...archangel" Luna said in between breaths.

Serenity got up again wiping off the blood from her right eye then spread her wings apart revealing metal tips at the end of them and fired them at Luna.

Luna activated a shield to protect herself from the metal tips Serenity threw at her.

"It won't work Princess Luna" Serenity said retracting her wings.

The lunar princess then used this opportunity to jam her horn into Serenity's neck causing her to choke on her own blood but the trick was she couldn't die on the fact she is an archangel.

Serenity created a massive shock burst pushing Luna back into a hole in the crater and twisted her right ankle causing her to writhe in pain.

"I have warned you Princess...you fighting me would be pointless" Serenity watched emotionless watching her groan in extreme pain. Luna tried to scurry away but the hoof was stamped deep in her broken angel.

"No pony whether they be unicorn, earth, or unicorn no matter what you will not best an archangel like myself" Serenity explained.

"Not true...I have not only my sister but everypony else" Luna proclaimed pushing her off.

She skidded on the ground using her wings to stop herself then looking at Luna as a surge of unknown power came within her, she floated upward above ground as a black ball surround the princess of the moon until the ball came right back down.

What kind of power is coming from her? Serenity stared more intensely.

Once the ball receded, Luna emerged out in a Nightmare Moon armor except her eyes remained the same.

"I AM THE PRINCESS OF THE MOON! I AM PRINCESS LUNA!" Luna shouted making the surge well known.

Serenity tried to move but Luna smacked her face in causing her face to eat dirt. She then stomped on the archangel's wings with a small crack that made Serenity wince in pain.

"Now I exist for a reason and that reason is to stand side by side with my sister" Luna proclaimed ripping those wings off.

All that was left was tips where the wings used to be. It started to bleed as Serenity tried to move but Luna held her head down on the ground.

"Now you are never going to stalk my life anymore" Luna said squishing her head between her hooves.

The armor disappeared, reverting back to normal then walking back to Ponyville with a healed left ankle after what Serenity did to her earlier.

Twilight woke up in the hospital with Celestia watching her and smiling.

"Princess...what happened?" Twilight asked half lidding her eyes to focus on a blurry Celestia.

"Shh Twilight don't move your alright now" Celestia placed a gentle hoof on her student's cheek.

A collection of hooves click clacked down the hallway passing by doctors and nurses who greeted her as she made her way to Twilight's bed rest.

Celestia was the first to notice. "Luna what are you doing here? And what happened to you?" Tia asked looking at her younger sister's battle scars.

"I fought an archangel and won" Luna replied coldly.

Tia knew about Serenity appearing in Luna's room but never thought she was an archangel. Twilight looked up, noticing the lunar princess standing in front of Tia having a conversation but sounded muffled so she closed her eyes to sleep the intense pain away.

"Luna you know that archangel could've killed you! How were able to fight her?" Tia got scared and worried about Luna fighting beyond what power she had.

"I don't know what happened. One minute she was clobbering me then the next my power started surging as if I was going to turn into Nightmare Moon but for some reason...I didn't" Luna explained.

That's when Tia noticed a scar on Luna's left ankle. "Where did that come from?" Tia asked pointing out to it.

"This was caused by Serenity's attack that involved a shockwave" Luna continued to explain.

Tia hugged Luna as a way to tell her she was glad to see her younger sister again.

For the first time Luna felt so much better.
