Hello everypony, Eclipse here. I just wanted to tell you this is my first fanfic and helping me with it will be Feeling-Grand. The main character that you'll meet later in the story is my own OC but sadly I do not own MLP FIM.

It was an ordinary morning in the land of Equestria, everypony still asleep within their homes as Princess Luna had just begun to retreat to her own part of the pony kingdom, holding the moon in the sky taking a lot out of a pony even an Alicorn such as herself.

As she started what seemed to her an exhausting eternity of a walk which in reality was about 10 hooves, She passed her known complete opposite, Celestia, sister for life.

"Good morning Luna, I trust you had a good night?"

Luna turned to reply to her sister but in the simple act of doing so she stumbled and fell against the wall with a quiet thud. Princess Celestia rushed to her side and gently eased her sister to the floor.

"Luna! What happend?" she asked with deep concern.

"ugh... Sibling of mine, one cannot fathom the troubles I've had through the night." She replied tiredly

"Celestia, something is amiss but I pray what I speaketh to be wrong"

A worried look began to creep its way over Celestia's normal demeanor.

She sighed.

"Myself as well has had some trouble in raising the sun but it would seem it's taking a much greater toll on you"

She moved in to hold her sister, comforting her pain.

"Sister I have no idea on what could be sapping my power in the simple act of rising the moon" Luna said so worn "but here lately committing the act that I have for a million years I.. I ...I feel myself growing weaker and weaker, this feeling I get at night is not an unfamiliar one"

Celestia's face changed quickly to one of puzzlement and confusion but she retained her soothing tone in an attempt at consoling her sister

"Are you simply not still having a Night Mare moon relapse?" she asked still retaining her soft voice.

Luna pulled from her sister's embrace and slowly stood up grunting all the while from her growing weakness.

" no... No"

She sighed.

"Celest, I wish it were something as trivial as that but no, I've only felt this way when HE was here. I pray that I'm wrong and that it's simply an illness but for now I must retire." She looked at her quietly,

"Would you please call the guards to help me to my room? Pathetic I know" she grunted "but I can't seem to make it any further"

Luna gently propped herself against the cold wall of the hallway, breathing heavily. Celestia still sat on the floor, her face blank and her mind racing with thoughts.

"Sister, are you alright? Shall I attempt to summon a nurse?" Luna asked worried

Celestia quickly snapped out of it and immediately stood up.

"C-could it be that-?...N-no, no...never mind, Luna. I shall retreat to my studies and read up on a cure for this illness you must have. Is there anything you require?" she asked with a rushed voice.

"No I'll be alright. Just an escort to my room is all" Luna said with a cracked broken smile.

"Guards!" Celestia called just above normal speaking level,

It seemed the pair of guards appeared out of nowhere as they responded to their princess in haste.

"ma'am is there a problem?" the guards seemed to say in unison.

"No, everything is just fine but would you two be gentlecolts and escort my sister to her room. I'm afraid she's feeling a bit ill"

"Yes ma'am right away" they said once more together

They turned to Luna, one on either side of her as they allowed her to lean on them, gently taking her to her room.

It was a cold place, one full of darkness as a figure stood there alone.

His red eye stared out quietly into the light from the crack c blood all it showed c red, alone, in darkness and he watched as the sun began it's slow decent into the ground.

Hatred, that's all he felt and he spat on the stone below him c

He was alone in this cold place, surrounded by walls of stone.

He hated it, hated the feeling that he had been living with for years.

So many years, all passing by in this eternity he suffered from c away from them c away from the ones that once said they had loved him, but banished him c left him.

Hurt him.

As the little crack of light began to dim, he knew it was time.

He didn't want this torture c this sadness of this cave c isolation for so many millennium and rose from the ground.

His horn glowed c his torment, his anger c his force as he burst lightning out of the tip, the rocks exploding, crumbling under their own weight and light blew in.

Eclipse took one step c and another, his black and white fur getting light of day on them as he entered back into the world.

His wings stretched out slowly, old worn feathers lit up as he took one swoop- entering the sky.

He would find them c he would return.

They would love him c they would know him again.

He was still here, no matter how much the world had forgotten him c no matter who denied his presence, HE WOULD BE KNOWN.

He was Eclipse.

And he was going to return home.

He looked beneath him as valleys and mountains, seas and lakes passed him, seeing the land which he had once been loved.

Equestria.

And he soared.

Wind gusted past him, towns, villages c the new generation c not knowing of what his sisters had done to him. Not knowing that they had betrayed him.

He soared on and on c he would be home soon.

And all would accept him.

He was Eclipse, and he would be whole again.
