Hi all! Thought I'd try my hand at MLP (great show!) fanfiction. This focuses around my pony persona, Galaxywalker. Also, I might not have the timelines correct, because all the wikis I checked didn't have that much info. But here's the basis:
Celestia and Luna were raised by their parents Queen Firenze and King Donavon, 5000 years pre-Sombra(Luna's mission trip was somewhere in the at the very end of it). Their parents died when Sombra came into power. Luna and Celestia defeat Sombra, 9000 years pre-Luna's banishment. The 10,000 year mark is right before Queen Chrysalis impersonates Cadence.
I OWN NOTHING EXCEPT GALAXYWALKER!
Now that we've got that of the way, enjoy!
Princess Celestia Sundancer looked over her balcony. It was dusk, and the moon was about to rise. She sighed softly.
"Sister?"
Turning her head, Celestia beckoned her sister over with a nod. "Luna. Come join me."
Trotting over, Luna murmured, "You are troubled."
Startled, Celestia answered, "What makes you say that?"
"The little things," Luna said simply. "A sorrowful glance, a small tear, an almost silent sigh..." The moon princess lowered her voice to a soft whisper. "You have been ignoring me."
"I'm sorry," Celestia hastily apologized. "It's just...it's almost the anniversary."
"Of what?" Luna inquired. "King Sombra's defeat? It has been almost 9,000 years."
"Yes...and no," Celestia sighed again, looking at the red sky. "Luna, there is something I have been hiding from you."
"What?" The alicorn laughed nervously. "Surely you jest."
"I am serious. There is secret I have been keeping, under instructions from Mother," the princess said. Ignoring Luna's obvious shock, she plunged on. "There...I...we..."
"Yes?" Luna prompted.
"We have a sister," Celestia said abruptly. Luna recoiled.
"What?!"
"We have a sister," Celestia said, slower than before. "There is...another royal alicorn."
"But...but this does not make sense!" Luna protested. "There are no documents, and I have never met her, and where is she now? Tell me, Celestia, where is she now?"
"You never have met her," Celestia said. "She was born when you were away in Saddle Arabia, helping to build the Silk Road. You were away for about five years, and she was born in year three."
"But - " Luna interrupted.
"Luna," Celestia warned, then continued softly. "Her name was Cosma. Cosma Galaxywalker."
The sisters were silent for a moment. "And then...?" Luna prompted.
"We gave her to Chrysalis."
"WHAT?!"
"It was a peace offering," Celestia whispered. "And the law stated you could not have more than two female heirs. I tried to stop Mother, I really did, you have to believe me, Luna..."
"What is her cutie mark? What is her special talent?" Luna asked angrily.
"I don't know...we gave her to the changeling queen just hours after she was born..."
Make a sound that was half-yell, half-sob, the moon princess turned and fled the balcony.
"Luna! LUNA!" Celestia cried in desperation. I can't lose Luna. She's all I have left.
With that, the sun set, leaving Princess Celestia heartbroken and alone.
This will also be posted on my DeviantArt account. I have the same username, but I know from experience it's almost impossible to find someone on DA with only their username, so here is the fanfiction link: art/The-Forgotten-Alicorn-Prolouge-394382435?q=gallery%3ASpottedmask77&qo=0
Just...copy and paste it into the URL or something. Yep.
Don't forget to review!
