Narrator: 2,500 years ago, the sun and moon were moved by Equestia’s beloved rulers, King Tempest and his wife, Queen Faust.

“Whhaa….?” Twilight whined. “D-does that mean…?”

Rainbow choked on her spit.

AJ coughed loudly.

Luna’s eyes widened at those names and the ponies on screen. It had been so long since she saw those two faces.

Celestia’s ears lowered.

Pinkie loudly gasped, Rarity joined along a bit more quietly, and Fluttershy muttered “oh…”

Narrator: They decided to have children so their bloodline would continue with stability. Soon, a pony was growing in the queen’s body, and everypony eagerly awaited the day the child was born.

“I wonder who that pony was?”
Of course it was Rainbow Dash who said that. Luna had to hold the urge to facehoof before whispering to her sister. “How long has it been since we’ve seen Mother and Father?”

“Decades…” Celestia whispered, her eyes widening at the realization. “It hasn’t even felt that long ago…”

Luna shook her head. “It hasn’t. I miss them..”

Narrator: One day, Faust suddenly collapsed, her eyes wide.
“T-tempest….” she gasped, sweat pouring down her face.

Tempest hurried towards his wife, gently nuzzling her. “Is it…?” Even though he was concerned, the thought of knowing his own offspring was coming soon beamed him with a bit of energy. Faust nodded and moaned. “This pony is coming, get the doctor…”

“Oh gosh,” AJ gasped. “I don’t think the tech was that advanced, wasn’ it?”

Twilight rolled her eyes. “It was 2,500 years ago, Applejack. I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t even have plumbing yet.”

“We mainly relied on each other for help.” Celestia explained.

Twilight happily lapped up this information. She would ask Celestia later for any historical texts about that time period.

With that, Tempest rushed to get help. After a couple of hours of pain, screaming, and a bit of crying, their foal finally arrived.
“Look, it’s a mare…” Faust mumbled with joy. “Welcome to the world, my little pony..”

The theater exploded into chaos.

“WHAT?!” Twilight screeched. She suddenly felt the urge to blue screen again. “BUT HOW?!”

“THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!” Rainbow shouted. “THAT’S WHAT CELESTIA CALLS US!”

Luna suddenly lost faith in her subjects.

“IS THAT WHERE SHE GOT IT FROM???” Rarity loudly asked. Fluttershy curled up.

“I had a feeling it was sentimental!” Pinkie said.

“Awww, princess, you got that name from yer mother!” Applejack gushed. “That’s awful sweet of ya!” The farmer gave Celestia a kind smile.

Twilight was trying to regain normal breathing patterns.

Luna sighed then shook her head. “Sister was always more like Mother than Father. It’s no surprise she got the pet name from her as well.”

Celestia smiled. “It’s a way of honoring them.”

Tempest laid next to Faust, smiling warmly at his foal. She resembled him quite a bit, much to his slight surprise.
“Doesn’t she look like you?” the queen smiled, looking down. The foal had her mother’s bright white coat and pink hair, while having her father’s sturdy face and chest.

“Sayyy, why WAS your hair like that at first?” Rainbow asked politely to everypony’s shock. “It’s now different colors then pink completely!”

“Uhh...basically it’s magic.” Celestia tried to explain.

Luna interrupted with a huff. ‘I’m sure all will be explained soon.”

Tempest nodded. “And you as well. I can see she’ll grow to be as strong as us.”
“Awww…” Twilight cooed. “You’re so cute, Celestia. But why don’t I see your wings..?” she frowned.

Luna’s eyes widened as she got a memory that had been long forgotten. Of a horrible beast crunching down on her, red flashes, and a young voice screaming.

Celestia closely held Luna. “That...will also be explained soon.”

Twilight narrowed her eyes before dropping the subject.

The kingdom had a tradition where members of the royal family were to be named in front of the subjects, so the next week the foal got her name. While screaming like she was being tortured.

Twilight blinked. “Princess.. YOU ARE SO CUTE!” she squealed. “LOOK AT YOUR witty little hooves…!”

Pinkie, Rarity, and Fluttershy also squealed, Pinkie’s being at the highest pitch. “OHMIGOSH SHE’S SO TINY!!!” She squeaked out.

Luna turned to face her sister with a rare grin. “Looks like somepony didn’t get her milk that day.”

Robot snorted and Rainbow burst into laughter at the tease.

Celestia looked away and blushed, quietly groaning.

“Please calm down, my little pony…” Faust muttered.

The foal wasn’t listening nor complying, as the sight of so many ponies was...frightening to say the least. The change from staying in the comfort of her room alongside her parents to being shown among a large crowd was jarring.

Faust looked two seconds from exploding when she got an idea. “That’s it! She’s screaming to the heavens, so her name shall be Celestia.”

Silence.

Then the clearing burst into laughter.

“HAHAHAHAHAH!” Rainbow was rolling around with tears in her eyes. “THAT'S why you are called that?!” she choked out through the wheezing laughs.

“I thought it was because of your mane!” Rarity said.

Applejack giggled before stopping her laughs. “That’s quite a way to get a name, yer highness.”

Celestia just sighed.

Twilight glared at her still laughing crush. “Rainbow!” she hissed. “Don’t be rude! It’s how they named members of the royal family back in the day, show some respect!”

Luna shook her head. “It’s not even that funny. What has happened to humor in the 1,000 years I was gone?” she sighed.

Rainbow rolled over before jumping up and yelping. “Twi! Don’t poke my flank!”

Said young alicorn glared. “Stop laughing at Princess Celestia!”

Tempest held Celestia, and nodded in agreement.
As the foal continued screaming, the kingdom roared in happiness and approval.
Narrator: Celestia was an endearing child, often getting into antics because she was bored.

Luna smirked. “Well well, this could be useful in the future…” she chuckled.

“What do you mean by that, sister?” Celestia asked, finally facing her.

“Nothing, nothing at all…” Luna shook her head, still smirking.

“Hey, get back here!” A cook screamed as he saw his pasties get stolen.

Celestia kept running, giggling as she hid in a corner and started to eat some of the stolen food.

“Really, Princess?” Twilight deadpanned. “Not even Spike had the guts to steal from the cooks, and he is a baby DRAGON.”

Celestia shrugged. “I had no laws back then.”

Pinkie looked up at the ceiling, thinking. “Hmm...kinda reminds me of my filly days.”

Rainbow grinned. She used to do that all the time! Her speed helped, of course, but the thrill of eating the stolen sweets was a feeling that was treasured to the speedster.

“I’ll tell the king and queen!” The cook warned, growling.

Celestia rolled her eyes, knowing that her parents would probably try to make amends here. Maybe.

Luna giggled. “Even rolled your eyes! Sister, why didn’t you tell me you were so cute?” she gushed.

Applejack sighed in nostalgia.

Celestia just made a flustered noise.

The cook ran screaming in fury to the king, tired of the princess’s antics.
“Please, his royal highness, that filly needs somepony to keep her busy!” he snarled, exposing his teeth.

Tempest thought for a few seconds, and nodded. “Perhaps I can think of a solution for this…”
The queen’s embarrassed shout soon echoed through the castle.
“You.. want another child with me?!”

Applejack blinked. “Uh.. Yer father was not really ta tactful one, huh?” she said with a drawl.

Luna blushed deeply.

“He seems really...blunt.” Fluttershy noted. Rarity made something between a shocked and disgusted noise.

Twilight facehooved. “I hope my dad wasn’t as crass when asking mom to have me..!”

Rainbow snorted once again.

Pinkie stared off. “I heard my parents talking about maybe having another foal.” She went back to a smile. “And then came Pizza Pie! Dunno where she is tho.”

“Well-” Tempest began, trying to explain, “Celestia usually is alone and that’s what causes her to get into a ruckus so often. A sibling might help her keep her mind away from things, and teach responsibility.”

“Or maybe having to send said sibling to the moon because of not following that advice..?” Too bad to Twilight, because everypony and Robot heard her.

Luna whipped her head around so hard you could hear a SNAP. “I beg your pardon?!”

Twilight paled. Oh no.

Fluttershy quickly came to her offense. “Uhm, I’m sure she didn’t mean any harm saying that, Luna!”

“How dARE YOU?” Luna snarled, almost fully breaking out the royal canterlot voice. “How dare you blame my sister for something that I DID?”

Rainbow paled and darted in front of the now terrified Twilight. “Hey, buck off!” she snapped, arching her back and hissing.

“Luna, calm down! There is no need to fight right now.” Celestia attempted to reason with her sister, putting a shoulder on her hoof.

“Calm down? CALM DOWN?!” Robot winced and paused the show as Luna was now belting in fury. “HOW CAN I CALM DOWN?! WERE YOU NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE VIDEO, TWILIGHT SPARKLE?! MY SISTER HAD TO COPE WITH ME BEING GONE AND FORGOTTEN FOR 1,000 YEARS!”

Applejack took a stance alongside Rainbow, fear sparking her gaze. “Princess Luna…”

Celestia quickly hugged her sister. “I know, I know. Those were...awful times. But I’m more happy with you being back here than upset.”

Luna wiggled in the elder alicorn’s grip. “But at least let me teach her a lesson…!” the moon princess lowered her ears and hissed at the cowering Twilight.

“No, no, I can deal with it.” Celestia stated.

Luna sighed and went limp, looking more like an oversized stuffed animal. Twilight quickly bolted back to her seat, ears flat and trembling.

Robot rolled her eyes and unpaused.

Faust coughed, seeing the reason. ‘I-I see.. But please give me some time to recover from this, first.” The queen sat down and stared into space.

Tempest slowly walked out. “Understandable.”
The queen accepted the offer after calming down, and 1 month later, it was confirmed she was going to have another foal.
“Oh, Tempest, isn’t it so amazing?” Faust sobbed. “We are having another little pony!”

Tempest nuzzled her, wiping away some of her tears. He was also crying a little. “Yes, yes it is, my dear!”

“Baby Luna is next!” Applejack chirped, trying to cheer up the dark mood.

Rarity made a gawking noise.

“What’s wrong, Rares?” Applejack frowned in confusion. “Ya choke on yer food?”

“No! Just...so many cute foals!!!” She squealed, placing her hooves on her cheeks.

Applejack gave her a cheeky eye roll. “‘Couse that’s what yer all riled up bout’.”

Faust soon had to tell her first born the good news. “Come over here, my little pony,” she asked with outstretched arms.

Celestia quickly leaped into her arms, giggling. “Why are you so happy, yet crying, mama?

“Oh my gods…” Twilight had somewhat recovered from the shoutdown she had been given and giggled. “Just so cute!”

Pinkie made “hnnghhhh” noises.

Luna was still dangling in Celestia’s bear hug, legs in the air. “Like looking in a mirror..” she sighed. “I miss her…”

Celestia joined her. “Me too…”

Rainbow popped open a soda can, making it cut into the musing.

Luna flashed a look at Rainbow. ‘We are having a moment.”

Rainbow huffed. “Well, I’m having a cola!”

Robot let out a choking wheeze.

Pinkie giggled, while Rarity rolled her eyes with a slight smile.

Faust smiled more. “You are having a little sibling!”

The foal gasped, then smiled widely. “Really!?”
Tempest went over to nuzzle her. “Yes, really.”

Faust giggled. “Now you can stop bothering the poor cooks who work hard here!”

Celestia froze for a second, and giggled again. “Ok, I will!”

“Princess, you have no rights being that gosh darn cute..!” Applejack swore with fake anger.

Celestia shrugged. “I guess I couldn’t help it…”

Luna smiled. “It’s not like she doesn’t still act like that sometimes… 1 moon ago she stepped out of the shower and I didn’t recognize her for some moments. I called her a “overgrown albino rat” with the royal canterlot voice before I finally saw her cutie mark, and dear sister was already sobbing and-”

Rainbow cut off Luna with yet another bout of laughter.

Celestia blushed. Heavily. She quietly started grumbling. “Sister…”

Twilight giggled. “Oh no…!”

Applejack gasped. “Gosh, Luna, she must have really looked freaky for YOU to be a bit scared!”

Narrator: The castle prepared for the birth of yet another heir, this time Faust collapsed in front of the castle at night, whimpering and praying someone heard her.

Celestia rushed towards her in tears. “M-mama? Are you ok?”
Faust lifted up her head, pain filled. “Get… healer… Foal coming early…” her eyes rolled and she fainted.

“Gosh darn it, Luna!” Applejack said, this time with more annoyance. ‘Ya couldn’t have just waited a bit more?”

Luna looked down. “We don’t decide when We are born, We only came out when We saw fit. At night.”

Robot hissed. “Not again with the Royal We….!”

“I think she can talk the way she wants!” Pinkie said.
Robot huffed. “As long as she doesn’t revert back to old English, then I’m chill, I GUESS…”

Luna rolled her eyes. “Mortals.”

Celestia whimpered upon seeing this, but knew that a healer would definitely help. She ran as fast as she could, hoping nothing bad would happen.
A guard jerked her away. “What are you doing out at this time, Princess?” he asked with concern.

“Wait wait, guards showed EMOTION?!’ Rainbow almost fell over in shock, her wings flaring and smacking AJ in the face, who growled as she pushed away the appentage.

“Who would've guessed?” Rarity sarcastically replied.

“Get wasted!” Robot giggled.

Rainbow wilted and lowered her ears. “S-sorry if I’m not up to date with my history…!”

“Oh boy..” Twilight face hooved yet again.

Luna was now losing even more faith in her subjects.

Celestia just giggled a little. “They can be quite comical.”

Celestia sniffed, and spoke in panic; “Mama told me to get a healer because my little sibling is coming soon, and then she fainted!”
Those words sent the guard into a panic, and the healers and king were soon informed.

Narrator: Tempest rushed towards his wife, his heart felt like it turned cold when he saw her laid there. Time also felt like it froze as the healers gathered towards her, and his daughter hid behind his front leg, nuzzling it in worry.
Faust let out heartbreaking screams, her pain ringing into the night.

“Oh no…” Twilight flinched away from Faust’s cries. “She sounds like she’s getting mauled.”

Luna wilted like a leaf. She didn’t like knowing that her birth caused her long dead mother's pain. “Oh Faust… If only I could speak to you again…”

Celestia held her sister’s hoof.

Luna gave her sister a sad smile in thanks.

Long hours of hurt passed, and the foal finally arrived after so much.
The foal’s coat was a deep blue, and her mane and tail were a pastel version of her fur. She was so small, but still cute.
Faust gasped. “It’s also.. A mare…”

“Luna… You are SO CUTE!” Twilight screeched, then blushed. “I mean… just look, your little eyes are all crunched up…!” she cooed.

Celestia had to squeal alongside her. “I always thought you looked so adorable back then!”

Luna blushed so hard it felt like her face was on fire. “N-Not that much….!”

Applejack was fangirling even more. “Ah, if only ya could have played with li’ Flurry Heart…!”

“Now that’s a time warp!” Pinkie commented.

Robot made a mental note to make more time warps.

“A little sister…” Celestia thought, not wanting to say anything until she knew her mother was completely ok.
“Why so quiet, my little pony?” Faust grunted, gathering the foal into her embrace.
“I just hope you’re ok…” Celestia quietly said, gently nudging against her mother.

“Awwwww!” The entire room said at once. “That’s adorable!”

Luna smiled despite the massive blush still tearing at her face. “Always the doting one… making sure everypony’s ok…”

“I only look out for the better of others.” Celestia said.

Applejack nodded. “As you should!”

“Oh, my dear Celestia, I am fine, just tired. Now come say hi to your little sister.” The queen stared up at the bright moon.

“Why is she looking at the moon all creepy?” Rainbow whined.

Before Luna could go into another ranting rage, Twilight quickly shut up the rainbow haired mare with a glare of ice.

“Shhh!!!” Pinkie said to Rainbow.

“Don’t ta DARE.” Applejack snarled.

Rainbow wilted and quickly nodded.

“Mhm…” Celestia mumbled, moving towards her sister. She looked ways different than her, yet she could feel a strong bond between them already. Even if the other didn’t know it yet.
The foal whimpered and jerked, touching Celestia’s face with a tiny hoove. Faust laughed.
“Looks like she wants to know you already.”

“Oh my gosh…” Twilight clutched her heart. “It’s too cute… my heart… is failing…”

Applejack wheezed, also killed by the cuteness.

Fluttershy squeaked. “They’re so adorable!!!”

Rainbow squeaked. “Yeah, cute!”

Luna only blushed even more. “E-enough with the praise…!”

Celestia blushed as well, not even sure what to say.

“You two don’t have to be so embarrassed! We were all born adorable.” Rarity said.

“But still…” Luna was aware she was still being held in the air. “Sister, put me down please.”

“Oh, right, sorry.” Celestia let her down.

Luna stretched her legs and sighed as pops rang out. “Much better.”

Celestia cleared her throat. “Anyways…”

Celestia smiled at her gently. “Hi, little sister. It’s nice to meet you.”
The naming reception went down even worse than Celestia’s because of the foal’s hidden moon powers. She somehow caused a thick blue fog to hover over the queen and king’s heads, plus the screaming sounded kinda demonic, so it sent chills down everypony’s spines.

“Uhm… Why the buck is Luna making fog…?” Rainbow tilted her head at Celestia.

“Secret power she uses on occasion.” Celestia answered.

“It has it uses sometimes,” said princess shrugged.

“And the crazy screaming…?” Rainbow continued on.

“Also apart of it.” Celestia continued.

“Knew it.”

Celestia hid in the back, shaking. How did her sister cause this?
The queen had a horrifying suspicion why, but pushed it to the back of her head for now as she named the foal Luna after the night she was born. Luna screamed once again.

Celestia covered her ears, whimpering a little.

“We are sorry for scaring you, older sister!” Luna recoiled. “We didn’t know of this!”

“It’s alright! It’s been decades since then, anyways.” Celestia hugged Luna with her wing again.

“Uh, Princess?” Applejack butted in. “Not just decades. It has been over 2,000 years.”

Luna reeled from shock.

Celestia rubbed her head. “Right. It’s been so long I’ve lost track of time…”

“Am I immortal now?” Twilight raised her wings in confusion. “I mean, I am an alicorn now..”

“No, you just have an expanded lifespan, since you weren’t made into one by Gods...which is another story.” Celestia explained.

Twilight sighed. “Ok good. Immortality isn’t my cup of tea.. I’d miss my friends too much!”
