1,000 Years Ago
Chapter 1
Load Full StoryNext ChapterI've written about 30,000 words of this story so far, but it's taking me forever so I decided to start releasing it in chapters. I'm an experienced erotic fiction author, but I don't have much experience writing sex scenes between two mares, so this might be a little rough. This is mainly a romance story, but there WILL be clop. I've also added futa about 30,000 words in to spice things up a bit. This is supposed to be a slow build up, which is something that I've been working on more in my stories. Let me know what you think of what I have so far and we can enjoy this adventure together!
Luna walked down the hallway slowly, lost in thought. She had just raised the moon after she realized that her sister had lowered the sun without her. They usually completed the ritual of sun and moon together, but for some reason her sister had decided to lower the sun without her. She huffed in annoyance as she approached the door to her sister’s bedroom. She wanted to burst in and demand answers, but realized that probably wasn’t the best way to approach the situation. Reluctantly, she lifted a hoof up and knocked on the door gently.
“Yes?” Came the regal voice of her sister.
“It’s me.” She said simply.
There was a long pause and some shuffling from inside the room before she answered.
“Come in.”
Luna opened the door gently with her magic before closing it silently behind her. Celestia’s room was filled with candles and a fire roared in the fireplace at the left side of the room. It was so hot! Celestia was sitting at her desk in the upper left corner of the room, a huge stack of paperwork to her right.
“Sister, why is it so hot in here?” Luna asked worriedly.
Celestia turned to meet her sister’s gaze and smiled. The smile infuriated Luna. It was so practiced, so forced.
“Oh, is it hot in here?” She asked casually. “I hadn’t noticed.”
“Enough of this sister!” Luna exclaimed. “What is going on with you?”
“Going on?” Celestia asked innocently. “Whatever do you mean, dear sister?”
“Why did you lower the sun without me?” Luna asked, a hurt look on her face.
“I don’t think we need to do it together every time, do we?” Celestia asked, turning back to her desk.
Luna was taken aback. Her sister’s reasoning was so logical, so forward, so direct. But she knew it wasn’t that simple.
“Sister, ever since we – I have come back, you’ve been so distant.” Luna said. “I don’t remember you being like this. We used to be so close. We’d take long walks in the gardens, and snuggle by the fire.”
Hearing this, Celestia’s shoulders visibly slumped.
“You’ve perfected your mask, sister.” Luna observed. “You began perfecting it years before I was banished, but now, it’s like it has taken over your personality. You’re not you anymore.”
“Forgive me, Luna.” Celestia said, turning to her sister. “I’ve had to shoulder the burden of ruling this kingdom all by myself these past thousand years. I guess my mask, as you put it, has become who I really am. It’s had to be in order for me to survive.”
So practiced, so perfect. The mask was still up and it infuriated Luna.
“Stop it!” She cried. “Take it off!”
For an instant Celestia lost her composure, but she regained it quickly.
“Luna, I…”
“You don’t trust me anymore, do you?” Luna asked accusingly. “That’s it. That’s why you won’t show me your true self!”
“No, Luna, that’s not it…” Celestia said calmly.
“Liar!” She said, tears springing forth from her eyes. “Even after a thousand years, was my punishment not enough for you?”
Celestia turned back to her desk and looked down at the paper in front of her in sadness.
“I’m sorry, Luna.” She said. “If you had any idea how hard it was for me to banish you, I’m sure you’d see things differently.”
“Then why don’t you trust me?” Luna cried.
“I do trust you.” Celestia said softly. “More than I trust myself.”
“Then why don’t you show me who you truly are?” She asked, hurt. “Y-you treat me like one of our subjects.”
Celestia’s eyes softened, her face showing an expression of profound sadness.
“Luna, I...” She said. “You’re my sister and I love you so much… But there are…things that you just don’t understand.”
“You doubt my abilities as a princess?” Luna asked, surprised.
Celestia looked at her with an equal amount of surprise.
“N-no…” She said. “Nothing like that. It’s just…”
She sighed, lowering her head in sadness.
“What?” Luna asked, concerned.
“I-It’s all my fault.” Celestia said, a tear dropping to the floor.
Luna was taken aback. She wasn’t expecting her sister to cry.
“What’s your fault?” She asked.
“I-It’s my fault you were banished…” Celestia said sadly.
“What are you talking about, sister?!” Luna asked. “It was my fault! I let my bitterness and resentment take over and I tried to kill you! How could that be your fault?”
“I should have been there for you.” Celestia said. “B-but I couldn’t be.”
“Sister, it’s not your fault…” Luna said sadly, guilty that she had made her sister cry.
“Yes it is!” Celestia exclaimed angrily. “I couldn’t keep my feelings in check and I lost you for a thousand years because of it! Well no more!”
Luna recoiled from her sister, taken aback by her outburst.
“Y-your feelings?” She asked. “I’m not sure I understand, sister…”
“Of course you don’t.” Celestia said bitterly. “How could you when I’ve kept you in the dark? I had to keep you from learning the horrible truth…”
Hearing those words from her sister caused knots to form in Luna’s stomach.
“W-what truth?” She asked.
“Remember when we drifted apart Luna?” She asked. “Surely you realize we’ve drifted apart.”
“Of course!” She said. “That’s why I’ve come to you tonight – to see what the problem is. I’ve been back for two years, but things still haven’t gone back to the way they were before…”
“You were in pain for years before you turned into Nightmare Moon.” Celestia said. “I knew there was a problem and I wanted to comfort you so badly, but I couldn’t.”
Luna’s eyes widened in realization.
“I-I thought…” She said, trailing off. “I thought you were a stuck up - ”
She quickly put a hoof over her mouth before she said something that she would regret.
“Go ahead and say it Luna…”
“N-no…” She said, bringing her hoof back to the ground again. “I was wrong to think so badly of you. But you changed, sister! You put on a mask for our subjects and took on all the royal duties yourself. And then you wore that stupid mask even around me. I-I couldn’t take it anymore. I thought that nopony loved or cared about me. The pain was just too much to bear.”
“What you say is true, Luna.” Celestia admitted. “I had to distance myself from you, but I never stopped loving you or caring about you. I just wanted to take the burdens off of you. You were such a kind and gentle pony back then…”
“But why sister?” She asked. “Why did you distance yourself from me?”
“I-I had to prevent you from learning the truth…” Celestia admitted.
“What is this truth you keep talking about?” Luna asked, bitterness in her voice.
Celestia opened her mouth to respond, but nothing came out.
“What truth?” Luna asked again.
Celestia looked at her sister, who had tears in her eyes. As much as she wanted to keep the secret from her, she realized she had no choice but to tell her. She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
“I-I...I love you, Luna…”
“Then tell me what this truth of yours is!” She exclaimed, exasperated.
“I just did.” Celestia said simply.
“What are you - ?” Luna asked, stopping abruptly as she tried to processes her sister’s words.
Celestia looked away from her. Tears fell from her eyes and onto the tile below.
“I love you so much, Luna…” She said. “More than I should, more than I have a right to…”
Luna’s mouth hung open in shock at the admission.
“Wh-wha…” She stammered.
“This is the truth that I tried so hard to keep from you.” Celestia said. “But in doing so I lost you for a thousand years. I-I won’t make that mistake again…”
“B-but we’re both mares…” Luna said. “We’re sisters!”
“I know…” Celestia said softly. “I did everything I could to try and bury these feelings, but I just couldn’t do it. The only way I could prevent you from finding out was to distance myself from you. But I can’t do that anymore. If I don’t start treating you like a sister again, Nightmare Moon might come back and I couldn’t bear to send you away again.”
“H-how long?” Luna asked.
“What?” Celestia said, not expecting a question.
“How long have you felt this way?” She asked.
“Well, ever since I started distancing myself from you.” Celestia said thoughtfully. “So a little over a thousand years, I suppose. I don’t know the exact number of years, but it feels like forever.”
“T-that can’t be true…” Luna said in shock.
“It is, dear sister.” Celestia said sadly. “I regret your banishment so much, Luna. I will do whatever it takes to make sure you’re not taken from me again. Even if it means telling you the horrible truth…”
“I-I…” Luna stammered, at a loss for words.
“Please, Luna.” She said. “I won’t ask you to return my feelings, but please don’t hate me…”
“Hate you?” Luna asked in surprise.
“Please…” She said. “Luna…I will do anything for you. I will give up my throne for you. You can have it all. Just please…don’t turn into Nightmare Moon again…please…”
“Sister…” Luna said.
Celestia looked up in surprise as Luna suddenly threw herself onto her and embraced her in a tight hug. She was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered enough to return her sister’s embrace. It felt so good to hug her sister like that. To be that close to the one she loved for all those years but had to keep her distance from. But the hug ended much too quickly for her as Luna pushed her front hooves against her chest so she could look up at her sister.
“I-I could never hate you, Celestia…” She said softly. “And you’re not horrible…”
“I’m…not…?” Celestia asked.
“No, you’re not.” Luna said confidently. “These feelings are…unconventional of course…but that doesn’t make them wrong.”
“Oh, Luna…” She said, pulling her sister against her body in a tight embrace. “I waited in agony for you for years, and then when you came back I was faced with the same problem of not being able to be close to you. Now that you know how I feel and you don’t hate me for it, maybe we can start to be sisters again…”
“I would like that…” Luna said softly.
Celestia let go of her and looked down into her eyes.
“You have no idea the pain I went through after your banishment.” She said. “I cried myself to sleep every night for months on end. And I did everything I could to try and undo the spell, but I couldn’t!”
“It’s not your fault, sister.” She said. “Sealing spells are almost impossible to break. If they weren’t, they would be useless.”
“Now that you’re back and I don’t have to worry about you finding out about my secret, we can be sisters again.” Celestia said happily.
“Y-yes…sisters…” Luna said happily, embracing her sister tightly.
Suddenly she pushed away from her and looked up at her with a serious expression.
“Can we open a window or something?” She asked. “It really is quite hot in here, sister.”
Celestia laughed.
“Oh Luna, you always make me smile.” She said, charging up her horn and opening the window a bit.
“Better?” She asked.
Luna closed her eyes as the cool nighttime air drifted into the hot and humid room.
“Much.” She said, opening her eyes again.
They stayed in a tight embrace for a few moments before Celestia experienced an uncontrollable surge of emotions.
“L-Luna…?” She said, looking down at her. “C-Can I…kiss you?”
Luna looked up at her sister, a light blush visible through her blue fur.
“Please?” She pleaded. “I love you so much, Luna…”
Luna said nothing, not wanting to spurn her sister’s advances, but not satisfied with a giving simple yes or no answer either. Instead she reached up as her sister brought her muzzle against hers, pushing against her tentatively. The kiss lasted but a few moments as Luna pulled away from her abruptly.
“S-sister…I…” She said nervously.
“What is it, Luna?” She asked.
“I-I’ve never been with anypony before.” She admitted, turning away in embarrassment. “You’ve been with so many ponies I’m sure…”
“I haven’t been with anypony since before your banishment.” Celestia said.
“You haven’t?” Luna asked incredulously. “Not in a thousand years?”
“No Luna, I haven’t.” She said. “I thought about it, especially with how lonely I was, but I could never bring myself to do it. I waited for you for a thousand years Luna, but I would have waited as long as it took to be with you. And if you never returned my feelings then I still could never bring myself to be with another pony again. You’re the only pony I’ve truly loved, Luna.”
“You…waited for me?” She asked, her eyes watering with sadness. “I’m so sorry, sister. I’m sorry you had to be alone for so long.”
“The wait was painful, but I can’t begin to describe my delight when you came back to me, Luna.” She said. “It was the happiest day of my life…until today.”
“Today?”
“The day you returned my affections.” She said. “The day when we could finally be together as I always dreamed.”
With that, she pressed her muzzle against her sister’s as they shared a passionate kiss. Celestia pushed against her enthusiastically, eventually pushing her to the tile floor below. Luna felt a little trapped underneath her sister, but in the heat of the moment she pushed those feelings aside, knowing that she would never hurt her. Celestia gradually moved away from her sister’s muzzle and licked along her cheek up towards her ear, causing her sister’s cheeks to heat up in embarrassment.
She nibbled on her ear gently before peppering her face and neck with light kisses. Gradually she made her way downward and started lightly kissing her chest, which elicited a few gasps and moans from her sister. The sounds of her aroused sister were like music to her ears. She worked as hard as she could to try and increase her sister’s pleasure, eventually getting close enough to kiss around her belly button. As she started to get lower however, Luna suddenly tensed up.
“S-sister…” She panted.
It was obvious that she was highly aroused and it excited Celestia greatly to see her sister in such a state. But what she said next made her smile fade in disappointment.
“No, sister…” She said, pressing her front hooves against her sister’s larger form. “N-no sex…”
Celestia backed off immediately, pulling herself away.
“Did I hurt you?” She asked in concern.
“N-no…” Luna said, her breathing starting to slow. “I just…this is going too fast, sister…I need some time…”
“I’m sorry, Luna. I shouldn’t have pushed you so fast. I just couldn’t contain my feelings any longer.”
“Can I be honest with you, sister?”
“Of course, Luna.” She said. “I always want you to be honest with me.”
There was a moment of silence between them as Luna collected her thoughts.
“I don’t want you to misunderstand.” She said. “I do love you sister, more than anything. But…I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to…you know…”
“Because we’re sisters?” She asked.
“N-no.” Luna said. “I love you, sister. The fact that we’re related doesn’t bother me at all. It’s just…I’m really not attracted to…mares…”
“I see.” Celestia said simply.
“Frankly I had no idea that you were attracted to mares, sister.”
“I’m not.” Celestia said. “But I do love you, sister.”
“Well then maybe there’s hope.” Luna said hopefully. “Maybe over time I can learn to be with a mare. But you have to be patient with me, sister.”
Celestia bent down and nuzzled her sister affectionately.
“I waited for you for a thousand years, Luna.” She said. “Take as much time as you need. I don’t want you to do anything you’re uncomfortable with.”
Celestia pulled away from her and looked down at her, a loving smile on her face.
“B-but sister, what if I can never do it?” She asked worriedly. “What if I can never learn to be with a mare?”
“I don’t care.” She said simply.
“You…don’t?”
“No, I don’t.” She said. “I love you so much, Luna. The physical pleasures come secondary or not at all as far as I’m concerned. So I don’t want you to be worried about having sex or letting me down by not wanting to have sex. Sex is great, but I didn’t fall in love with your body Luna, I fell in love with YOU.”
“Oh sister…” Luna said, bringing them into another passionate kiss.
Celestia pulled away slowly and started backing up towards her bed.
“Come sleep with me Luna, like we used to do all those years ago…” She said as she crawled up onto her massive bed.
Luna followed her lead and got into bed next to her. Celestia snuggled her sister against her form, spreading her wing to cover the love of her life protectively. Luna suddenly perked up with a thought.
“Sister, why do you have such a big bed when you never sleep with anypony?” She asked.
“Why in preparation for this day, my dear sister.” She said. “It’s even called the double princess size.”
“Really?” Luna asked incredulously.
“Really.” Celestia confirmed, laying her head on the bed. “I named the size myself.”
They both laughed at the ridiculous joke. Luna snuggled up to her sister and laid her head against her sister’s neck, using it as pillow. Without another word they both slipped into a deep sleep, snuggling against each other for warmth against the cool wind that was blowing through the open window.
