A/N: Hi all I must say I was surprised at how many people reviewed this fic considering it is meant to be a filler while I try and get Wolf and Raven's Rise working for me again but I'm glade so many of you liked it.
Now I know there are bad spelling or more to the point wrong words but right spelling within the fic but I am trying and working on fixing those were possible (Got to love WordWeb program its been a big help.) so I apologies for them now and hope that you all enjoy this chapter and leave lots more reviews!
Also yes I know I made Harry and Luna seem perfect together but they well have their ups and downs but I have always said ever sinse I starting reading this stile of crossover fics that those two should get together but it well take a little time so don't worry.
Enjoy!
Chapter 2: Sisters
Luna walked down one of the many hallways of the Palace much later the same night she had gone to see Twilight, her new cloak sweeping along around her hooves the guard all around stepping to one side at her passing but otherwise didn't say anything as she moved past them, a few of her own guard giving a soft greeting as she passed but like many others she had passed in the halls Luna only gave a nod of the head or a soft greeting back.
Arriving at her shared quarters with her sister Luna paused for a moment at the door before carefully opening it and slipping into the room the sight of her sisters large golden bed being the first thing she saw her slightly small sapphire blue bed on the opposite wall, a shelf to one side holding her sisters golden jeweller including her crown and hoof cuffs, a section on the shelf being left empty for her own smaller crown and other body jeweller.
Looking around the richly upholstered room Luna couldn't help but smile as she saw he sister sleeping with soft even breaths within her golden bed, her multicoloured hair still waving ever so softly as if in a light wind but otherwise her sister looked to be happy and sleeping peacefully compared to the first few nights of Luna's return her sister almost seemed like she was never going to let go as well being even more protective of her then before.
Luna also remembered the other reason why she was sleeping within her sisters room was because Celestia had woken up quite a few times and would panic when she didn't see her sister right away in the middle of the night, this panic would start a search for Luna even though she would be asleep in her own quarters down the hall, the fact that Celestia woke up her own guard and force them to help in her search for her so called kidnapped sister didn't help matters.
Moving carefully so as not to wake Celestia Luna came to a stop next to the golden bed and just looked at her sister her new cloak coming up off her body and moving to and next to the shelves where she would place her hoof cuffs and other jeweller in a few moments right after she left her small surprise for her sister.
Dropping down to kneel beside her sisters bed Luna smiled at her sisters sleeping face before looking over her shoulder at the saddle bag still over her middle, the bag quickly opened up and out came a wrapped present the same size as one of the single mirrors which was the size of one of Twilights books, the paper it was wrapped in was covered in little moons in defiant phases a small smile coming to Luna's face as she carefully placed the present on the small bedside table that Celestia had always used to keep a few personal items that only their mother and herself know about.
The thought of her mother caused Luna to pause for a moment a sad little smile forming as she remembered the beautiful filly that had been her mother, she could remember how her mane and tail had flowed and swilled with the light of stars and suns as if all of the galaxy itself was woven into them all at once while her wings looked to be made from a sort of white mist that only just hid the outline of feathers within them.
Her coat had been as soft as new snow and just as white, her eyes seemed to glow with light and colour as if the light of all creation was trapped within those orbs, Luna could also remember the night her mother had left her and Celestia, the very same night that Celestia had first raised and lower the sun all by herself, it had only been a a few years after her own birth as well, she could just remember hearing her mother whisper a finial good-bye and promise that some day they would meet again.
Luna remembered waking the next morning and walking around the simple house she had been born in to find her older sister by a good dozen or more years Celestia crying softly within the simple living room a letter from their mother laying to one side saying she had to go as the time of the True Immortals has passed and now it was up to them to build the future of the world.
Shaking her head of past thoughts and making another promise to herself to find some way of being able to talk with her mother again Luna looked back at her sister for a few moment, not help but give a little smile before leaning forward and ever so lightly kissed her on the forehead just below her horn, "Thank you sister for always believing I would return to you when everyone else was convened I was evil... and thank you for raising me when mum left us, I can only hope that I am as good a mother as you were to me someday." She whispered before getting back to her feet and starting her early morning routine as multiple brushes came forward to start brushing her mane and tail her hoof cuffs and other jeweller raising up to land gently on the shelf next to her sisters own items.
After a few moments of just seating there ever so slightly tilting her head from one side to the other as the brush's worked Luna's cyan eyes looking into the mirror before her, turning her head just enough to see the saddle bags so as to lift them off and float it to one side the second mirror the one with the crescent moon at the top of the frame rising up and hoover before her.
A small smile growing on her face as she look at herself in the mirror not helping but admit that she was nearly a fully grown Alicorn mare and would be quite beautiful once she finished growing back to her full power from her time imprisoned, of course she did think that she wouldn't match her sisters beauty but then again she had yet to meet anyone other then their mother who looked as beautiful as her sister.
'I still can't believe that I had de-aged and lost so much power from my time imprisoned that I went to my younger body once I got back and was freed from Nightmare Moon... at leasts it didn't last long my mane and tail is much easier to handle like this then normal hair.'
Shacking her head of those thoughts Luna finished brushing her mane and tail getting to her feet as she moved towards her bed moving the mirror to the side table making sure it wasn't in view of her sister until she would basically be right in Luna's bed.
Looking around the room for a moment Luna gave a small nod and whispered good night to Celestia's sleeping form before settling down into the bedsheets a brief glow from her horn killing the light within the room as she settled down to get a few hours sleep as like her sister Luna didn't need a lot of sleep, but they both enjoyed a good nap from time to time.
0000000000000000000000
The rest of the night passed with no problems for anyone within the Palace, the moon carrying on its passage across the sky with no problem as even in her sleep Luna had control over how the moon moved and as such it was setting as normal but paused a little before dawn waiting for Luna to give the final command to finish lowering and carry on its path to the other side of the world only to be summoned up again at the sun set.
Not long after the moon reached its lowering point only waiting for the beginning of the sun rise Celestia rose her head enough to take a look at the clock on her bedside table knowing she had to leave the warmth of her bed to use her magic to rise the sun, she know she had to go raise the sun but at the moment all she really wanted to do was go back to sleep as it had been a long time sinse she had a lie in.
"What I wouldn't give for mother to be here to handle the rising of the sun so I could stay here in this warm bed and catch up on my reading... it has been so long sinse I had a day just to myself." Celestia says calmly moving from a laded out possession to a more upright, her mane looking a little messed up giving her as close to the bed hair or sex hair look as some pony's would call the look as it would ever get with how her hair acted ever sinse she sealed Luna within the moon a little over a thousand years ago
Looking around the room Celestia paused at the her sister's sleeping form not helping but smile at the peaceful look on Luna's face at the moment, a sight she had fallen in love with once again now that Luna was back to her normal self as a peaceful and happy looking Luna weather she was awake or asleep her peaceful look did more to improve Celestia's mood more then any gift or sweet that many so called suitors liked to try and shower her with.
Giving a sigh after a few minutes of just watching Luna sleep Celestia got to her feet and carefully and silently moved to the vanity mirror her horn glowing with energy as she started to work the knots and tangles out of her mane and tail her golden crown rising up and rest on her head within a few minutes of seating down before the mirror.
Humming a simple tune that she remembered her mother singing to her and Luna when they had been little filly's Celestia paused in her brushing when she saw within the mirror the moon themed wrapped present on her night table that she had missed when waking up.
Tilting her head to one side the blowing a small lock of her cobalt blue part of her mane out of her eyes Celestia slowly got to her feet again and starts to walk towards the bedside table while still using her magic to keep the brushes working on her mane.
A soft glow of energy around the present had it rising up to her face as she carefully turned the simple card attached to the present said it was from Luna and that she hoped she liked the present she had gotten from a little shop within Ponyville.
Turning her head enough to look at her sister Celestia couldn't help but smile at the thoughtful gift even if she didn't know what was in it it was still the first presents she had gotten from her sister sinse before her other personality and the darkness and loneliness within her heart formed Nightmare Moon who quickly took over her body only to be imprisoned not long after taking control.
"Thank you sister." Celestia says softly before using her magic to pull the wrapping paper away showing the soft golden frame of a mirror her cutie mark sun becoming viable a few moments later, the glass looked to be without a single defect, the soften gold frame catching Celestia's eye when a little light from the near by lamp hit the rubies and ambers set into it. "Where in Equestria did you find something like this my dear little sister its beautiful, in fact I haven't seen craftsmanship of this level in years."
"I'm glade you like it Tia." Luna's voice says softly from her bed turning her head enough to look up at her older sister with a small smile eyes still half closed in sleep, "Consider it a late birthday present for the last thousand years as with it we will never truly be apart again."
"Oh Luna you didn't need to get me anything as I already have the best gift, my little sister back and able to stand by my side for all time." Celestia says moving to Luna's side and nuzzle her neck gentle, Luna just giving a small sigh of joy before returning the soft nuzzling.
Luna pulled back first and just looked at her sister before smiling and starting to get up out of bed, flicking her head a little to get most of her mane on one side Luna moved slowly passed her sister saying as she goes, "I'm glade to be back to sister, but we can talk more about that later for now you have the sun to rise and I would like a bath before breakfast... any chance of some of that zap apple jam this morning for a change?" Luna finished saying over her shoulder while moving towards Celestia's personal bathroom within her royal apartment.
Celestia gave a laugh as she nods her head in agreement as it had been a long time sinse she had had something as simple as toast and jam for breakfast, but that would have to wait as she had a job to do and a bathroom to regain control off, she couldn't have Luna thinking she could take totally control of her personal bathroom after all.
A few hours later Celestia was eating breakfast while reading over any reports and such she needed to see to including a letter from Twilight explaining what had happened the other night with Luna's visit including the question Luna had asked about the ebony Unicorn that owned the rather charming little store down the street from the library.
Looking up at her sister Celestia couldn't help but smile at the slight look of bliss on her sisters face as she slowly chewed her slice of toast with its rainbow of coloured jam on it, "Sister, Twilight says she enjoyed your visit last night and hopes that you go and see her again whenever you feel like it, also she mentioned your question about the young stallion that owns the little magical shop within Ponyville a rather good-looking one if I recall, anyway I take it it was his store you got the lovely mirror you gave me earlier."
Luna looked up at her sisters comment a slight darkening of her dark blue coat around her face before she shock her head, "Yes sister I did get the mirror from Harry's little store as well as the matching mirror so now we can talk to each other from anywhere within Equestria, the instruction on the back say all you have to do is say my name at the mirror then my mirror well give off a low glow which I answer by saying your name."
"Oh it is one of those mirrors, I have been trying to get him to tell me the spells he used to make them do that ever sinse he set up his store but so far he had turned me down saying its a trade secret, I brought a set not long after he opened his store so I could keep in contact with Canterlot when I'm travelling from the city for some time," Celestia paused for a moment on her comment before saying softly taking a bit from her toast, "I have tried to identified the spells used on those mirrors but something about the magic on them is blocking me from being able to find out there secrets."
Luna looked at her sister at that comment before turning back to her meal saying as she takes a small bite from the slice of toast, "Then we both may need to go and see him and see if he willing tell me, after all he respites me far more then you, or so he claims." Luna turning her head a little giving her sister a slightly smug look as Celestia just narrowed her eyes a little in a playful way to show what she thought of Luna's comment.
"Oh my little sister has a fan and now its gone right to her head has it, well I'll just have to fix that." Celestia finishes saying waving her head a little as a number of feathers came flying out of no where and started to tickle the younger mare a squeal of surprise and laughter sounding through the royal dinning room as Luna tried to get away from the surprise tickle attack.
One of the guards poked his head into the room at the first squeal only to shack his head and turn back to his post outside, this however didn't stop the maid who had also poked her head in, she stood calmly their enjoying the scene before her after all she hadn't seen her Princess this happy and playful sinse she first took Twilight Sparkle as a student.
"Alright sister I'm sorry please stop!" Luna cried out between her laughing trying to bring her own magic up to take control of the feathers but not being able to concentrate enough to do so, Celestia seemed to think on the request for a moment before smiling evilly at her sister.
"Who's the greatest pony in all of Equestria?"
Luna tried to glare at her sister for the question but couldn't as she went into another laughing fit when Celestia brought one of the feathers along her right flank right over her cutie mark which had always been very ticklish for her, managing to get a breath in after a few more minutes Luna turned her head enough to look fully at Celestia, gasping out a moment laughter between laughs and giggles. "You.. ha-ha... are sis... *giggle*..., please stop!"
Celestia seemed to think on the request for a moment before smiling and moving to her sisters side, said sister now rolling around on the floor trying to get away from the feathers long enough to use her own magic going by the glow forming on her horn.
"Your right I am the greatest pony in all of Equestria how kind of you to say so my dear sister." Celestia says raising the feathers up to hoover around her head a smug little smile forming on her face as Luna just laded their on her back all four hooves still kicking a little in the air as she got her breath back.
"That was not fair Tia," Luna says rolling back to her feet after a few moments to catch her breath standing up carefully while giving her sister the puppy dog eyes for the tickle attack. "Maybe I shouldn't take you to see Harry and see if he is well to tell you about those mirrors and how to make them."
"Oh now that is just not fair especial after calling me the greatest pony in all of Equestria, now come along dear sister we are going to pay this young stallion a visit and see if your charms are better then mine in getting the secret of those mirror as well as a few other items he has in that shop of his if the rumours are true."
The two sisters looked at each other for a few moments before giggling and falling in fits of laughter as it has been a long time sinse they had both laughed like that as not even the near year sinse Luna had come back from exile. Celestia moving closer to her sister while still laughing nuzzling her softly whispering softly that she was sorry for what she had done again, Luna only nodding and saying softly back that she forgives her and would keep on forgiving her until she stopped blaming herself for what she had to do.
Shaking her head after stepping back from her sister Luna gave a small smile as she turns and starts towards the door saying over her shoulder as she goes, "You better go get ready if we are going to Ponyville today Tia after all the ponies are going to want to see their favourite princess and that alone is going to add a few hours to our visit."
"Not to mention Twilight is going to have questions for me about her lessons and show me any spells she has learned sinse my last visited." The white Alicorn says calmly moving along side Luna as the pair moved towards their quarters to get ready.
"But still deep down you enjoy it all and love that little Unicorn just as much as you love me, don't you sister." Luna says looking over her shoulder with a knowing smile as she know that Twilight had help fill the hole in Celestia's heart over her exile as well as lay the ground work for returning Luna back to normal.
"I do but she could never take my little sisters place." Celestia says with a nod of her head to Luna as the pair started to get ready for the trip to Ponyville.

It was coming up to midday when the royal carriage was sighted approaching Ponyville however because of the speed it could travel no one had been able to get ahead and warn the town that the royal sisters were visiting, as such it was to some surprise that Twilight looked up from her book she was reading when she heard the sound of a carriage pulling up just outside, moving to the balcony Twilight looked down in time to see the flowing mane of colour that was her mentor Celestia as well as surprisingly the starry night mane of Luna stepping down from the white and gold carriage.
'Oh I wasn't expecting the Princesses to visit today? Oh I hope nothing bad has happened it any of my family or am I in trouble or have I some how forgotten some project and the Princess has decided to come herself to say I am no longer her student?' were some of the main thoughts that were running through Twilights head as she quickly had Spike send off a message to her friends in case Celestia needed the help of the Elements of Harmony wielders for some project she might be working on.
Quickly rushing down the stairs and out the front door Twilight was in time to see the Mayor come running up pausing a moment at the sight of Luna but didn't allow that to stop her as she rushed up to Celestia's side and bows low to her Twilight doing the same a moment later as she stands before her mentor.
"Rise Madam Mayor, this isn't a formal visit as my sister and I merely wish to see my student and also see if the elusive Mr. Night-sky is willing to talk and maybe we can talk him into trade the secret of some of the secrets to his enchantments... again." Celestia says waving a hoof over the kneeling pair both quickly climbing back to their hooves, her head moving just enough to see some of Twilights friends starting to arrive but otherwise didn't comment or acknowledged their arrival.
"It is always nice to see you when you visit Princesses and I do hope your stay here in Ponyville is a good one, as to Harry Night-sky he was seen heading into the Forest like he always does a little after sunrise." Mayor says stepping to one side to allow the two Princess to walk down the street towards Harry's little shop, Twilight falling into step with her mentor and friend.
"I always wondered were he lived as his shop isn't big enough really for a flat above it like many of the others, also what do you mean Princess when you say try and talk him into trading his enchantment secrets?" Twilight says coming to a stop beside Celestia while looking at the closed door of Enchantments the window shutters closed and the single window in the thatch roof also being closed.
"Mr. Night-sky is something of a enigma, he showed up in Ponyville a few months before you did my student and just set up shop, no pony knows anything of his past or where he came from only that he is a very powerful Unicorn pony and that he specialises in the enchanting items, not to mention the royal intelligences agency hasn't been able to find out anything about his past beyond what you already know my dear student." Celestia says looking at the shop for a moment before turning again to look towards the edge of town and the Everfree Forest, "We have come a long way to talk with our elusive friend and I plan on staying until we have this talk." Celestia finished saying with a wave of a single hoof to the six guards that had been silently following the small group all six giving a single nod before turning as one and set off at a fast trot towards the edge of the forest to see if they could follow the trail of the Unicorn that their Princess wished to speak with.
Luna and Celestia walked at a much more causal paces both giving a nod of the head or soft greeting when Applejack and Fluttershy who lived the furthest from town came into view just before the group reached the edge of the forest. They were greeted by the two Unicorn guards who only pointed down one of the many paths that lead into the forest this one leading if Luna remembered into a section of the forest that was heavily populated with Timber Wolves but that information might be wrong after a thousand years.
"I can arrange some place for you to stay until sundown if you like Princess as Mr. Night-sky isn't going to be reachable until then I'm afraid." Mayor says eyeing off the forest but remaining with the main group not paying the two Unicorn guards any mind when they walked up and reported that they had found the trail that Harry must be taking going by how fresh the tracks were and that the four Pegasus including the caption who had come with the group were scouting ahead.
"We'll hunt him down then, go and start cutting a path Guardsman, Mayor please don't worry about use as we should be find with such a large group so please go about your business," Celestia paused for a moment in her words to the Mayor before turning enough to look at Twilight and all of her friends giving them a small smile of reassurances about going into the forest turning to look at said place before saying with a careful and calm walk "Don't worry so much Madam Mayor we'll be back before the moon rises."
"We better be as I don't feel like raising the moon from the old palace." Luna comments falling into step with her sister as the wielders of the elements of harmony fell into step around the two princesses the darkness of the forest quickly causing the group to vanish from sight of the Mayor who could only watch the leave her sight.
