Why Me?

I decided to take a break from the romance of Appledash and wanted to focus on my favorite pony, Luna. This story will focus on the pain and reconstruction following her attempt to take over. Review and tips would be much appreciated so please take the time out to do so, would mean so much. Thank You.

A Shadow

"It has been a week since my mistake, yet I am still punished for it. Becoming a shadow in the land my sister rules is not what I wanted. I just wanted to be loved, as my sister is when she raises the sun. I hope today is different, maybe people have forgotten… Or forgiven what I have done."

NEXT DAY

ROYAL PALACE

Luna wakes up to her sister's call of the sun. Luna walks up to the window to see the beauty of her sister as she lowers the moon and rises again with the sun. Tears stream down as Luna watches her sister complete her daily duty.

"Another sleepless night. I wish my sister trusted me; I miss my job of raising and lowering the moon. She didn't need to take that away from me, isn't my punishment of being ignored by all of Equestria enough, but now I must watch my sister become even more loved with bringing up the night's moon too?"

"Luna? Are you up Luna?"

"Yes sister, I'm up…"

Celestia opens the door and to her surprise, sees her sister awake and outside on the deck.

"Why are you up so early my dear sister?" Asked Celestia as she walked toward her little sister.

"I wanted to watch you… again sister. It amazes me how you can do both sacred duties at the same time..."

More tears stream down Luna's face as she recalls that she used to be responsible for the rise and lowering of the moon.

"Luna… We have talked about this plenty of times, you must be patient sister"

Luna's horn begins to emit a faint glow, around her room a few books are levitated and then inserted into a floating backpack nearby.

"Where are you going Luna?"

"I'll return before supper sister, I… just need some time alone"

The glow from Luna's horn grows brighter as a majestic blue robe is placed around Luna and the backpack secured tightly around your body.

"Please take an escort sister; I want you to be safe…"

Luna lowered her head. Celestia noticed drops continuously falling from her little sister's face. She gracefully walked over to her sister.

"Leave me alone! I don't need an escort when I'm ignored by everypony anyway Celestia…!"

Celestia took a step back, obviously hurt, but not by what her sister had yelled, but by the fact she could feel the pain in her sisters in.

"Luna… Plea…"

"No!"

Luna's horn glowed a bright violet as the two windowed doors leading to her balcony slammed shut, cracking the glass. Luna spread her wings and departed the royal palace in a hasty manner.

"I just wish I wasn't alone in this world.. Everyone sees Celestia, but no one sees me.. Everypony loves my sister, but no one… loves me.."
