Canterlot Castle, Equestria
In the morning, you asked Celestia if you could have a normal room, which she gladly gave to you. Once situated in the new room, you checked you gear that Luna recovered from you. You disassembled your rifle, saw that all the parts where fine, then you reassembled it. After that you checked your armor. Everything was working and it was not too damaged. But it could be better. Then you checked for ammo and your communication chip (basically a phone but in the future). Neither where there. You were about to ask to go to the downed pelican to retrieve them, but you wanted to gain the princesses trust more. Not that they had a reason that they should not trust you. It is not like you where an ONI spy. So, you went and asked Twilight if she had any history books so you could have some basic knowledge of this place. You made sure to specify that they were the simple ones not the this-famous-dude-breathed-every-2.5-milliseconds kind of history book. After reading the books you decided to do a workout. Hell, you have not done one for the past eight days. You did the simple things that you do every morning, like 1000 sit ups, 1000 squats, 1000 burpees, and 1000 pushups. Then you heard a knock on the door. "Come in," you said. When the door was open you clearly saw it was Luna.
"I thought you could use some company," she said. "You haven't come out of the room for almost the whole day. Is everything alright?" You were glad to see she was concerned about how you are doing. That showed that she cared about you.
"I haven't left my room because I was reading the books Twilight gave me. Also, I was working out," you told her. "And some company would be nice."
For the next hour you would continue you workout routine while she asked questions about why you were doing that and how it helped you. After a while you decided to confess your feelings to her. "Hey Luna," you said.
"yes," she said in response.
"There is something I want to tell you," you started. "Ever since I got her I thoug-"
Your sentence was cut off by a soldier bursting through the door. "Princess Luna!" he said, exhausted. " There is a Chupacabra attacking Ponyville, and Princess Twilight needs your help."
Damn it. You were so close. Now you just had to wait till later.
Luna said, "come on y/n, we have an issue to resolve." You went to grab your sniper rifle and armor. Even though you did not have any extra, there still was five bullets in the clip. But you knew only one would do the job.
When you and Luna where going to Ponyville you asked her "Where is this place anyway?" She responded with
"It is by that downed capsule-thing you where in."
"Is there any way we could stop by it on the way back, to get my other stuff," You asked ever so nicely (you hoped at least).
"Of course, y/n," she said in that beautiful voice of hers.

Ponyville, Equestria
When you arrived in Ponyville, you saw the chupa-thingy (you really needed to watch less Red vs Blue). Luna walked over to Twilight, who was recently thrown into a building.
"Twilight, are you OK?" Luna asked her.
"Yep," Twilight responded slowly getting up.
"Do you all care if I kill that son of a bitch, or do you want it alive?" You asked, while pointing at the Chupacabra.
"Yes y/n, you can kill the Chupacabra," Twilight answered. You climbed up on a building and pulled out your rifle. You zoomed in to try to find its eyes to shoot. From day one the UNSC have been teaching you to shoot there because the eyes are a gap to the brain that is not protected by the skull. You lined up your cross hairs and pulled the trigger. A loud bang came from your rifle, and the monster fell to the floor blood pouring from its eyes. As you got down from the building, Twilight and her friends where staring at you.
The one with rainbow hair began to speak. "That was AWESOME!!!!" She yelled. "How did you do that?"
"It wasn't me," you began to reply. "The rifle did all the work. I just pulled the trigger."
Twilight began introducing her friends. "This is Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie." They all said hello when you waved at them, except for Fluttershy, who looked like she wanted to hide under a desk.
You said, "Well it was nice meeting you all, but I have to get going." After saying goodbye to them you and Luna went to the crashed pelican.
"Well, this is it," she said, and you began looking through the crash site. You found five crates of 100 sniper bullets, three health packs, twelve canisters of Bio Foam, twenty syringes of adrenaline, and your communication chip. You're lucky the Princesses had a private train because it would be awkward to carry all that stuff on to a public one. When you got back, you put the stuff you found away and went to bed, even though it was the afternoon.

Canterlot Castle, Equestria
After sleeping for a few hours, you finally got up. You went wandering around the castle, looking for Luna. You found her in the kitchen, making coffee. "Do you want some coffee y/n?" She offered.
"No thank you," you responded. "I don't drink caffeinated drinks."
"Oh, OK," she said. "What were you trying to say earlier, before the guard came in?" Your heart started racing. You tried to muster all the strength in you to tell her.
"Well," you started. "Ever since I got here, well I mean woke up here." You tried to continue to talk. You have not stammered yet, which is not a bad thing. "When I looked around in the hospital room, when I saw you I though you where beautiful. Then when I got to know you a little bit, I saw that your personality is beautiful as well. What I'm trying to say here is that I love you Luna." You expected a rejection, her to laugh in your face, her to say you were just friends or something. After all, you've only been here for a few days. But what she did next caught you off guard. She leaned over and kissed you full on the lips. Of course, you immediately started to kiss her back. After what felt like hours of kissing (you weren't complaining), she leaned back. "So, this means you love me back?" You asked.
"Of course, y/n!" She said happily. "I've felt the same way about you when you got here as well." Tonight, was the best night of your life. You could not change it for anything else.
"So, does this mean we are dating?" She asked.
"Fuck yeah," you responded.
For the rest of night, you and Luna snuggled on one of the couches.
"y/n, I have something to tell you, and It's one of my closely guarded secret," she informed you.
"I will not tell a single soul without your permission," you promised.
"OK, here it goes," she stared "When I got corrupted by Nightmare, it traumatized me, not emotionally but more like a physical trauma."
"Like when you get hit with concussive forces?" You asked, looking for clarification.
"Yes," she continued. "It did something to me I had no idea it could do. Apparently, it gave me a really bad case of PTSD. You looked at her. You knew what that meant. People in the military get it all the time. "You have a split personality?" You asked.
"Yes," Luna responded. "But it's not like a usual case. It's like there is two people inside my head. When the other takes control, I cannot do anything to stop it." You were very concerned about her now.
"How would we know that the other personality is in control?" You asked.
"The other personality is a fragment of nightmare moon, so I would be acting like her. The only real way to understand is to see it, and to show you, you must be asleep," she said. You got up
"Then I guess I will be going to bed."

The Astral Plane
You were having the weirdest dream. You wanted to leave, but you had to stay and wait for Luna. Then you saw a rupture in the wall, yes, the fourth wall of your dream. Then Luna came out of It. "Hello y/n," she greeted you.
"Hey Luna," you said in response. "Can we get going now, this dream Is driving me crazy."
"Of course," she said. "Hold on." Then you had the weirdest feeling. It felt like you were being stretched out, but without the pain. Then you were in Luna's head. You looked around to find her, but then you saw two figures in the distance. When you could make out the details of who they were, you were surprised.

You walked up to them. "So, when you said two people in your head, you weren't fucking kidding," you said.
The figure that looked like Nightmare Moon asked Luna "Who is this? He looks pretty cute." She walked over to you and started to examine you.
"Nightmare Moon, that is our boyfriend," Luna informed her.
"My, you made an excellent decision this time around." Nightmare Moon said in somewhat of a flirty voice. "So, when are you going to let me out? I'm kind of sick of this place and I haven't seen the real world in a while. And there are so many things I could do with him." You had no idea to take that as sexual or not.
"You have to gain my trust first that you will listen to me and come back no matter what happens out there," Luna informed her.
"Oh please," her other personality began. "I would do anything to get out of this dump."
Luna turned her attention to you and said, "Well y/n It's almost dawn and you should get up."
"Nah, I'll stay a little longer," you said. "Plus, I have an idea on what to do here."
