Luna awoke in the early hours of the morning, the moon and stars still glistening. She sat in her room staring out. The young princess had always dreamed to lower the moon, but her father said she simply was not ready. After pondering on what to do, she finally decided she wanted to set the moon. Her parents weren't up, Celestia wasn't, what's the worst that could happen?

She began focusing, her horn glowed a blue aura. It sparked as she desperately tried. Eventually, the giant glow in the sky oved, only a little but Luna was so happy at the sight. Celestia had been able to raise the sun for months, and now finally Luna could do her part.

She ran to her parents, who were still asleep. "Mother, father, I can move the moon! I moved the moon!"

They woke up in shock before congratulating the filly. Celestia had heard from her room and came in to congratulate her sister too. Shortly after, the princess' father Astro, I midnight black stallion with deep blue eyes and small stars all over his body, help Luna finish setting the moon, while their mother, Dawn, a beautiful white mare with amber-red eyes and a mane and coat tipped with the colours of sunset, guided Celestia as she raised the sun. The two sisters had for the first time done their duties together.

Word had spread fast throughout the land that the moon princess could now control the moon. All the alicorns were cheering for Luna, as they had for her sister prior. For the first time she felt she could stand out from Celestia. Unfortunately, that happiness was short lived, as Astro and Dawn needed to prepare the fillies for a task beyond anything they could ever imagine.
