The First Unicorn

Why is the floor all wet?

While the four mares stood there talking to each other, Luna questioned about Twilight’s and Dawning Light’s relationship.

“Exactly what do you mean by… a love spell?”

Light looked at Twilight while mentally asking her to explain this to Luna.

Twilight told the others she would be Light's voice. “It’s the spell that the gods placed upon me… Unfortunately, no matter what happens, I will always be forced to love Twilight regardless if she cheats, kills or… or even does any form of harm to me… but I’m alright with this… I think, even if the spell is removed, I would still love her.”

Twilight looked at the glowing mare with a smile and Light did the same. As Celestia, Luna, and Twilight left, Twilight heard the glowing mare think I will always love you… no matter what happens.

The three returned to Canterlot via train and all went to bed… or so Twilight thought. Later on the next night, she heard the stepping of hooves while she slept in her room. She got out of bed and proceeded to investigate who it was. As she looked down the hall, she could see the long flowing mane of Celestia walking towards the library. Twilight followed far behind to be sure she wouldn’t get caught. As she entered the library however, she saw the princess had disappeared. She decided to go back to sleep even though curiosity was taking its toll on her mind. About two hours later, she heard the steps again and did some recon once more. It was Celestia walking back to her room from the library. Twilight decided to enter the hallway and stepped in liquid.

“Huh? Why is the floor all wet?” she asked as she followed the small drops. They led to the library. Inside, it went up to a concrete wall that was fairly unnoticeable. She backed up and saw it sliding open. As it did, she heard scratching concrete and turned herself invisible with a spell. Luna walked out of a door that was hidden while saying “No, no. It’s alright. You’ve been working too hard. Take it easy.”

Twilight saw Luna leave and the concrete wall sealed the hidden room. She didn’t know how to open it, so she followed Luna back to her room. As she entered the still cracked door, she saw Luna on her balcony looking upset. Twilight turned off the invisibility spell and walked up to the blue mare.

“Is everything alright?” Twilight asked.

Luna jumped at Twilight’s intrusion, but not by much. She lowered her head and said “No… not really.”

Twilight walked up to her and stood next to the mare asking if she would like to talk about it, what ever it was.

Luna gulped and said “I… I still feel bad about… when I was Nightmare Moon… The tricks I played on you and your friends… the threats… I don’t think I can say sorry enough for you to forgive me… and then tonight… I almost killed my own mother…”

Tears fell to the smooth floor as she closed her eyes. Her speech became harder to understand as she continued.

“If I had…h-had killed her… I still shouldn’t have received forgiveness.” Sobs and small whimper sounds were getting to Twilight as she felt sympathy. She decided to comfort Luna by pushing her head through Luna’s arm. As she sat there giving Luna a kind grin, she said “You didn’t know, and Light is alright. You don’t need to feel bad about your mistakes. Everypony makes mistakes.”

Luna slumped down and stopped crying. As she remover the tear drops out of her eyes, she laid her head down to relax. Twilight put her head on top of Luna's and wrapped her hoof around the blue mare's neck squeezing tightly.

That night, Twilight slept with Luna on her balcony to try and calm the mare from her distressed situation. While Twilight woke up to find Luna above her, Twilight didn’t move, but instead read Luna’s mind.

Twilight is such a good friend… She’s always there for her friends. Always willing to sacrifice time and effort to ensure their wellbeing… If only I could tell her… If only I could let her know… I… Well; I like her more than she thinks.

Twilight rolled her eyes as she was able to predict this. She raised her head and said “You know, if you like me that much, you shouldn’t hide it.”

Luna gasped and asked how she found out. Twilight reminded Luna that she could read the minds of others.

"I’m flattered.” Twilight explained. “But, I belong to Dawning Light.”

Luna blushed while looking away. Twilight continued.

“Even though I think she wouldn’t mind because of the spell, I would still feel regret for doing something…”

Luna looked back at Twilight and forced a kiss upon the mare before she could say anything else. Twilight blinked, but didn’t fight it. She knew it was inevitable as Luna was always more dominant. She chose to give the blue mare this moment’s time to at least enjoy herself with the pleasure of Twilight’s lips. As they parted, Luna opened her eyes and said “I’m… sorry… I just… I had to do that.”

Twilight, blushing just as much said “It’s alright, I guess… just don’t do it again. Like I said… I belong to Light… Not the night.”

Twilight got up and left her friend. Luna would feel better later on knowing she got as far as a kiss. As she lowered the moon to make way for the sun, she smiled. Walking to her bed, she felt like a heavy burden had been lifted. She knew Twilight would never be hers, but she also had the satisfaction of knowing she stole a kiss from her as well.

Sweet dreams lofted through Luna’s mind; dreams of her being with Twilight. Those were mere dreams that would never become reality, but Luna was alright with fantasies. They made her feel the sublime calming of restful peace. But dreams and fantasies were unfortunately just that… dreams and fantasies.
