Celestia dumps her sister on the bed, then fixes her awkward sprawl. Sighing, she turns off their alarms and slips into bed herself. The sun was taken care of right after day court, and Luna had done her half then. However, she can not do that now, and probably not for a while. And that is ok.

Celestia tells herself that she is going to sleep. However, she merely stays up, watching her sister. Luna is awake, but unresponsive; just like in the hospital, those few years ago. Unable to think straight, she starts crying her heart out. No one told her that Luna would try to jump once she got back. Or the week after.

No one said it would be that hard to have her back.

At some point - Celestia didn't know, she had the room locked magically and the curtains shut - Luna awoke to her big sister. Not as in her eyes opened, but her mind was working again. Luna looks up, eyes full of sorrow and pain.

"Sister… am I… forgiven?"

"Yes, Luna, you are,"

Then they both sit there, warmed by the other mare. Eventually, Luna steals both herself and her sister into her realm.

? LATER

Celestia awakens to a scream from a corner in the room. Bolting up, she notices her sister has gone in the corner and… she…

"Luna!" Celestia shouts, eyes full of tears. "What is this?!?"

"I was gonna… hang myself,"

"Then why the knife!?"

"To do this…" As Luna let her sister see her little 'Wings of Horror', she heard silence for a few seconds. "Look, I-"

A tight hug wraps around Luna. "Am well loved and deserve to live my life." Celestia firmly whispers. "Could you please say that to me?" Luna nods, letting a tear hit the floor.

"I am well l-loved and d-deserve to - I can't keep lying!"

"Then finish the statement, Luna,"

"No. Not yet," Luna looks fearfully at Celestia. "That would be… bad. I couldn't stand myself then,"

"Ok," Celestia sighs, defeated. Luna feels worse. "Just please tell me the next time you have a plan, sister?"

"Ok, I can do that," The diarchs return to bed, both a little less stressed.

?? LATER

The two sisters woke to… well, each other. Celestia turns to Luna, watching her wake up.

"Isn't it time for the sun by now?" Luna asks.

"Maybe, but we won't move until you finish telling me everything and we both feel much better,"

On the outside, the elements - minus Dash - had gathered, trying to get in. Twilight was working on it, but that would take time. Days, experts said. However, it was Twilight...

"But without the moon, I'm useless," Luna cries out. She buries herself into Celestia's shoulder.

"Let it out," Celestia mutters. Luna starts crying much harder, almost sobbing. They lay there for thirty minutes like that. Luna stops tearing twenty minutes in, and spends ten minutes hugging her sister tight.

"And what about your ponies?" Luna sniffles.

"Our," Celestia fixes her sentence.

"Our," Luna amends, "ponies? And the sun?"

"Luna, your health is more important than the day,"

"But what about them? Aren't they important, or must they suffer because I am weak?" She sighs. "Stupid good for nothing princess…"

"Hey, stop that," Celestia admonishes. "You're not weak, just sensitive, as usual," Celestia pulls Luna closer, hugging her tighter. "Plus, you have a convoluted past. I'm sure most ponies forgive you,"

"But you make them suffer because I can't mare up," Luna weeps out. "And I can't stand that!"

Suddenly, the door opens.

"I'm in!" Twilight shouts from outside. Luna tries to hide in the bed, weeping quieter, yet harder. Celestia sits up, yawning.

Twilight walks through the door. "My my, it's been two days, teach," Twilight says teasingly.

Celestia sighs. "It has? Give me three more," She looks strained, both physically and mentally.

"Now, you can't solve this without help, even if you are a Goddess," Twilight waves to her friends as she walks further in.

Luna suddenly bursts out of the bed. "Leave me alone or I will do to you what I did to those foals, Twilight Sparkle!" She tears up and tries to hide again Idiot her friends out now all of Equestria will call you a foal fiddler you i-

Rarity walks in, wide-eyed. "What did you do, Luna?"

"Nothing," Celestia says, quickly drowned out by Luna's rant.

Leaping up, Luna starts: "I raped them ok I raped them like the little shit I was I raped them till they died I raped them after that I raped two at once I- I-"

"Luna," Celestia says as if it was a warning. "That was Nightmare Moon," Luna melts into her sister, sobbing and shaking. Please don't kill me please don't kill me please don't.

That did not stop Rarity and Fluttershy from fainting, or Pinkie from saying "That's not news, why is everyone fainting?"

"You don't count, Pinkie," Celestia says. She was fully aware that Discord had more than one way of meddling in her affairs.

"Ah well," Pinkie eats another cupcake from her magically appearing box.

Twilight wakes the two fainted elements up as Applejack starts talking to Luna. "So, hol' up a Celestial damned minute… y'all are telling me that she still blames herself fer Nightmare Moon?"

"But of course I am Nightmare Moon I am her I was the one who raped those foals I burned the houses I killed ponies I almost killed my sister but I wanted her to kill me why can't you or me or anybody kill me ok there now you know my life story whoopee now end the story!" Luna begs. She starts to shiver uncontrollably. If she didn't know better, Twilight would say she was having a seizure.

"Sister," Celestia says through tears. Now crying, Luna turns to look at her. "Don't say that. Ever,"

"Bu-"

"Sister, I may have contemplated suicide many times whilst you were gone, but I stuck through it for you," Luna looks shocked at Celestia's confession. "I love you, Luna, and seeing you like this, makes me think that that's not such a… bad idea…"

"I…" Luna hides under her sister. Feeling stupid. Stupid like an idiot. Like her.

Twilight shooed the other elements away: "Go on, girls, I'll be out in a minute," After they left and a sound proofing spell was put up, Twilight hopped up onto the bed. "Should I get your niece…" she whispers to Celestia.

"That would be nice," Celestia whispers back. Twilight hops down and heads to the door.

Just as Twilight is about to leave, Luna blurts out "Come back please don't leave don't go,"

Twilight smiles weakly. "No problem, I'm just getting Cadence," Seeing Luna sated, a purple flash takes Twilight away.

CRYSTAL PALACE

All throughout the house, everyone is asleep; from the new flurry heart to the old bedside wreath.

(Flurry Heart's birth was very sudden; Cadence supposedly had a month left, yet Flurry Heart came out fine. This was put on the fact that she was an Alicorn, who have been acknowledged to develop quicker than normal)

However, that changed when Twilight uses her teleport and crashes on the dining room table. Hearing this, Shining jumps up, grabs a blade, and runs to the dining room.

Flipping the light on, Shining stares, dumbfounded, at the scene before him. "Um… Twi? You ok?"

"Hey Shining! Is Cadence awake?" Twilight shakes the dust from her impact off.

"I am now. What is it?" Cadence asks, yawning, from the doorway.

"Luna needs us…"

Cadence springs to action, kissing Shining goodbye as she leaves. Looking up, as if to the moon, she says "Fear not, auntie, I'm coming…" A bright purple flash consumes the two mares as they leave for Canterlot.

Utterly confused, Shining hurries to Flurry's room when he hears crying. Note to self: what the fuck.

CANTERLOT CASTLE

"Why did she leave why why why I'm scared sister," Luna says, still tightly held in Celestia's embrace. Even at this point, Luna was still crying, even if it was a small stream.

"She was going to get Cadence, Luna,"

"But why why why I'm scared sis I-"

Just that moment, a bright purple flash appears in front of the bed. Twilight and Cadence stumble out into the room.

"Still not the best with teleporting," Twilight winced.

"So, what's the pro-" Cadence says before seeing her two aunts.

"See sis I told you they all hated me she said I'm a problem and I am I'm your problem sis I need help," Luna makes out through tears.

"Auntie…" Cadence sighs. "I thought that you were better,"

"Better?" Luna snaps up, a crazy look in her eyes as she leans towards Cadence. Celestia starts to rise, worried. "Better?!? I don't deserve better! You know that! You know what I've done. You all do! Yet you toy with me to make me suffer even more!!!" Luna is roaring at the end.

"Sis…" Celestia says. "She is ignorant, that's all,"

Luna leans back and sighs. "You're right. I'm so sorry. I just need to shut up…" Luna starts to bury herself in her sheets before Twilight stops her

"No, that is not what you want to do," Twilight says. "You need to tell us how you feel, Luna,"

"I feel like a pile of shit. Worthless. All I've ever done is cause pain and misery. There! Is that what you wanted to hear?! Because you have! Now leave me be I just want mom I just want mom…" Luna starts to whisper as she curls into a ball.

Celestia adopts a protective position around her sister, providing warmth and comfort. "Luna, you may feel that way, but you don't really believe that, do you?"

"But I do I do it hurts please make it stop why can't someone help me with my nightmares..."

Cadence approaches. "Luna, please stop beating yourself up. We all love you, and you matter to us so much…"

"Yeah!" Twilight picks up. "You're so awesome, Luna! Why wouldn't someone love you?"

"Why would I?" an all too familiar voice calls from the doorway.
