Author's Note

Not my best effort I know. Mama Greymoon was messing with me while I was trying to write

Chapter 3

I wish upon the moon to take me from this life of strife.

To know true peace for once in my life.

I think I had woken up, but I'm not certain. I'm not certain of anything really. Waking up something felt....off. N..no. Not this again. Please, anything but this. I've gone through this nightmare enough. This time, instead of ending when Tia and Luna walk in, I have to deal with the whole damn thing. They was staring daggers at me.

"What is this about? What have I done Tia?"

"SILENCE TRAITOR. YOU NO LONGER HAVE ANY RIGHTS HERE."

"I still have the right to know what I'm charged with." I looked Luna's way then. Silently pleading with her. "Luna? What is this about?"

"Hold your tongue or I shall remove it." I couldn't believe it. I haven't done a thing wrong and both of my wives have abandoned me. I was trying to figure out what I had done when Tia interrupted my thoughts.

"The traitor will look at me when I am speaking during his sentencing. With the evidence that Whispered Word has provided, you have been found guilty of treason to the crown. Because of who you are, this has become a private matter and thus is not subject to a trial." Luna picked up from there.

"Your sentence is to be stripped of all titles, magic and powers. Normally in situations as this, death is the final decision, but in this case your fortunate. Our daughters have begged us to banish you instead and we have acquiesced to them. We have found a alternate dimension to send you to." That last statement almost killed me.

"I'd rather die then be sent somewhere else. Please don't do this" I begged. Tears falling down my face.

"As my sister said. Our daughters begged us to spare your life and we shall. Before your sentence is carried out, there is one other issue to take care of." I watched as both of them remove their wedding rings from their horns and throw the rings to the floor in front of me. The final blow was Tia hitting the rings with a spell and melting them.

"You are no husband of ours. If you somehow find your way back to Equestria, I will personally send you into my Sun. Goodbye you worthless piece of trash." I just want to wake up. Please, someone wake me up. I want to die so badly. I want this to end.

"We can not allow that husband." As I watched, the nightmare faded and I watched as Luna and Celestia walked towards me. I wasn't thinking and started running from them.

"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE" I screamed at them. I was stumbling and shaking in fear. "Haven't the two of you done enough to me. I just want to die in peace. WHY CAN'T YOU LET ME DO THAT." I had fallen by then and curled myself into a ball. At that point, I didn't care what they did to me.

"We can not do that Jeremy." Luna had caught up to me. "Please wake up. All will be explained to you then." Still shaking I looked up at her. The sadness was evident in her eyes. "Nopony will harm you my love. We have waited a thousand years, hoping you would return to us. Just...let go and wake up." Her nuzzling had started to calm me down by then and I watched the area surrounding me start to fade.

As conscious returned to me, I felt two bodies on either side of me. I started to tense up, but I felt someone start to nuzzle my ear and speaking softly.

"J, calm down my heart. I would just as soon cut my horn and wings off than harm you in anyway." This was the Tia I knew. This was the Tia that helped me with my depression so long ago.

"H..how am I still alive" I croaked out.

"Everything will be explained my love. Just have patience" Luna answered. "Sister will start with why we was so cold to you the other day."

"I thought you still hated me."

"After you was banished that was true. Until we found out the truth of the matter, but let me explain about your reception first."

"Ok"

"When we discovered what Whispered Word had done, we couldn't set the record straight fast enough. After you was exonerated, we have had to deal with various imposters over the years claiming that they was you and had returned. Of course after so many of them over the years, we became jaded." I watched a beautiful smile cross her muzzle. "It was your blessing that confirmed who you are" she said still nuzzling my ear. "Nopony else has ever used your blessing."

"When we heard it, joy filled my heart" Now I had Luna nuzzling a ear. "That's when we knew you was home."

"That and we could still sense grandmother's magic still on you." I should have known Twilight would have noticed that.

"That explains the reception, but what about Whispered Word."

"The reality of what happened didn't hit till six months later. A guard stepped forward with information on where you was going all the time."

"You found the house didn't you."

"Yes, we did. What is it for" Luna asked.

"It was to be our retirement home."

"What?"

"Did you think we would rule for eternity. I was hoping that after maybe four or five hundred years, the girls would have taken over for us." Tia looked at Luna and smiled.

"We will get back to that. Anyway, the next piece of information that came up was the fact that we noticed Whispered Words trips started to increase, especially to the north."

"We decided to have him followed and it was discovered he had been going to the Crystal Empire. Our suspicion of him grew more because of that. We knew he had no family in the Empire. As the months passed his visits grew more frequent and finally Tia decided to ask him about it. We had cast a truth spell before he entered the room and as we questioned him, his responses became more false. It wasn't long before he broke and admitted that his evidence against you was false and he was in league with Sombra."

"At first we was ecstatic that you was innocent, but then it dawned on us. W...we had abandoned you, judged you, and treated you with anger and disdain." Tia's tears torn at my soul. The remorse in her words and eyes said it all. Luna's hurt me worse. She should never cry. My Moon Goddess looked at me with a teary smile.

"We decided that if you ever returned, you would be more important than anything to us." I smiled at them and pulled both closer.

"I never stopped loving either of you or our daughters, but I want something explained to me." Everyone looked at me expectantly.

"Why am I a alicorn?"
