After he broke her. She was quiet and did as she was told without questioning him. As long as she was obedient and well-behaved, he wouldn't punish her. Sometimes even rewarding her like giving her better meals and allowing her to lay in bed with him which was much better than laying on the floor, even if it was with a leash on and tied to it.

So she made sure she did everything right for him.

There was a part of her that still wondered if she would ever see her sister again. The chances were slim. She was aware of that but maybe just maybe Celestia would find her. However, nothing ever happened. When he wasn't looking, she would look over the newspapers to see if they ever said anything about her going missing. They never did.

As time went on, she slowly began to give up. Eventually, deciding to stop thinking about her old life altogether. It made things a lot easier for her.

She then saw herself feeling happy with her master. The things she did for him was no longer an order but a pleasure. She cared for him. Maybe even loved him.

Luna's efforts on the prostate soon paid off as her master began to finish. "Oh, buck yes! She's so tight from her fear!" His anus clenched hard around her tongue while he gave one hard thrust and moaned out.

"D-don't chop her yet, I'm not there…" said Upper Crust.

"Ngh… you can finish the blue cunt's pleasuring if you'd like, pet, I know you're eager for my seed, so get it before you need to pull the rope," her master said as he pulled out his slick cock and leaned against Minuette's back.

Luna definitely was and pulled her tongue out fast to begin suckling on the sweet and salty cum drizzling out of the puss before her. The taste of her master's jizz was quite comforting, and her tonguing seemed to be doing something as Minuette's butthole began to essentially wink at her from right above the tip of her snout. She took a moment to grab the rope and felt rather conflicted.

Well, Celestia's let me do the honors before, but rarely did I take any pleasure in it… I...I'll take some today, I suppose I should thank my master for a bit of vengeance, but this feels wrong, it doesn't feel like the justice that Celestia would have me bestow…

Moments later, Upper Crust screamed in pleasure. "Aaah! Yeees! I'm close! KILL HER!"

Luna stared into Minuette's pucker, which clenched suddenly likely in fear from Upper Crust's command, as she pondered what she was about to do.

One pet killing another, and I doubt Celestia would forgive me for this...or Twilight. Hopefully, I never have to explain myself...

As Minuette began to squeal and squirt, Luna looked at the rope in her hooves, remembering a mare Celestia had spared. One pull and it would be all over, an undeserving mare killed.

One pull. One pull. One pull. Damn it.

She gritted her teeth, hooves trembling. She couldn't do it. Celestia would never forgive her, and she wasn't about to do that to her sister. "Hopefully Master doesn't get too mad at this..I'll say that only he can do such honors, and pets don't deserve that."

"What is the holdup?! KILL HER!" Upper Crust shouted, clearly on the edge of orgasm.

Comic Flare glared at Luna from his position on Minuette's back, but she shook her head, eyes closed. "I...I can't do it, master. Such honors in killing a bitch don't belong to a pet."

"Well, I'm telling you it's okay. So kill her," he ordered.

Luna only stared down at her. Her body shaking. She knew she had to obey him, but it didn't feel right. She couldn't bring herself to pull the rope.

"Well?!" Comic raised his voice this time.

"I-I…I can't. I'm sorry. I can't do it," she replied, whimpering.

"Excuse me? Do it now or you're going back in the dungeon!" he screamed.

"No…" she whispered.

"What did you say?" he growled.

She stood up and got up close to his face, her courage to speak up flooding her body. "I said no. I won't do it!"

Suddenly, she felt something hard smack her backward, busting open her nose. Luna cried out in pain, holding her bleeding snout with her free hoof. Comic Flare was shaking in rage, eyes bulging out.

She heard the blade drop, and Upper Crust's shriek of ecstacy.

"Pet." He purred. Lumbering over to her, he wrapped his tail around her belly. "Made you," he whispered, and Luna's eyes widened in horror, regretting being born at that very moment.

Her eyes went to the guillotine; there was the twitching, urinating body of the former pet Minuette, and in the front, her head was in the bucket...but Upper Crust, after letting out a few final squirts and sputters, took it and threw it at Luna's hooves, giving her a view of the eyes staring at her as they rolled back. Luna screamed at the sight, barely able to process it, nor the words of Upper Crust's high-pitched voice taunting her master for not training his pets better, nor what came after: Comic Flare's snarls as he dragged her down to the basement of Hell. The world turned into a pain-filled blur.

She came to her senses when he threw her hard on the ground. She stared up at him, not even daring to get up. She knew that she had crossed the line this time. She began to wonder if he was going to kill her for sure. It then dawned on her what she had just done.

"I-I...killed her…" she barely could get it out of her.

"Shut up!" He yelled causing Luna to crawl back a little. "Why are you so fucking stubborn?!"

Her eyes trailed to the floor. "I-I'm so-sorry."

"Trust me. You're going to wish I used the guillotine on you," he threatened.

"I knew this would be a bad idea, Comic." Upper Crust trotted down the creaking steps in disappointment.

"I don't know what happened," he replied.

"I do. You didn't do a good job breaking her. It's the problem all you amateurs have. You never finish the job," she snapped. "Might as well just kill the bitch."

He looked sharply at her. "I can make this work."

"And what if you can't?!" she yelled. "You know the boss will be pissed after hearing this?"

Luna's ears perked up a moment. Boss? Oh sweet...my sister, they're more organized than I thought...if I'm bad for my master, they might come for me...

"He doesn't need to know shit," he shook his head, annoyed.

She stared blankly at him for a moment when her eyes widened. "Wait a second. Does he know she's still alive?"

Comic said nothing.

"Or that she's even here with you?"

Comic stayed quiet and looked away from her.

"Oh my. You lying son of a bitch!" she snarled.

She went to push him but he slapped her hooves away. "Stop! Enough! Look, he's not my dad. I don't need to listen to him. I have my own plan."

She scoffed. "Okay then. Good luck with that!" she said triumphantly as she started heading for the stairs.

"Where are you going?" He shouted.

She stopped. "Where do you think? I don't want anything to do with this. You want to play with fire? I don't want to be around when you get burned."

He trotted up to her and leaned in close to her face. "I think it's too late for that. You're involved with this just as much as I am. When you told us about her, you got yourself into this. Whether you like it or not, you lit that fire as well."

"Then burn it out before it's too late," she scoffed.

He smirked. "You don't want to kill her. You just don't want to get caught. You said it yourself. Celestia's no closer to finding her now than what she was before."

She sighed heavily.

"Look at her." Comic pointed at Luna. They saw Luna still sitting on the floor. She was trembling as her eyes watered. "She's quiet. She's not asking questions. She just got scared. I just gotta make it clear to her to not do that again. I'll make it where just the thought of disobeying me will frighten her."

She looked cautiously at him. "Why do I have a feeling like you're keeping something from me?"

"Because...in an hour when I've told you everything, you're going to want to be involved with us."

Luna gulped, realizing that everything was going to get far worse.

"Us?" She chuckled as she shook her head. "Dammit. You always know what to say."

"So, we're good? I can trust you not to say anything?" He asked.

"I'll give you the chance to convince me not to," she sadistically smiled. "First, just make sure that bitch won't cause any trouble for us."

"She won't," he replied with a smug voice.

"Good." She looked at Luna. "Now what about her?" Luna started breathing heavily.

"You want to help?" He laughed.

"If you don't mind." She trotted over to the table. "Let's see what we got here."

Comic made his way to Luna. She immediately started crawling back trying to get as much distance away from him. He grabbed her by her mane and pulled her to the chains.

"Please don't! I'm sorry!" Luna pleaded.

"It's too late for that, pet. Now don't fight and it will be much easier for you."

Days blended into weeks and weeks into months. Luna wasn't sure how long it had been. Luna had become accustomed to everything that was happening to her. From the beatings to being raped to not eating for days. A heavy chain was attached to a collar around her neck, not letting her stand at all, and a bucket was attached to her rear to catch any waste or sexual fluids, emptied only in the morning; sometimes she wished they would just kill her. She would be more useful to him that way. She somehow always found a way to upset him which made her feel bad. She knew it was always her fault.

She was never allowed to go upstairs. He brought her to his bedroom a few times but only for a few hours. Afterwards, he would bring her back down in the basement.

But what really scared her was when she would be told by Comic to wear a blindfold before they would start and order to not take it off no matter what or she would be punished. And of course, she dared not touch it, even when she'd feel him putting her in a guillotine or any number of torture instruments. Other times, she would wake up without any memory of falling asleep or what had happened the day before; she suspected that this at least partly involved some kind of new experimentation with the limits of alicorn regeneration, as sometimes she could feel a pain in her neck or maybe it wasn't just him involved. Despite all this, she never dared to ask any questions.

Luna's body was in worse shape than it had ever been. Her ribs were showing, her mane rugged with open wounds from the beatings. There were also missing patches of fur. But she never begged him to stop nor complained about the pain she was in anymore. She took it all because she knew she deserved it. As long as she obeyed him and did what she was told, he wouldn't hurt her. She had to listen to him and everything would be fine. She knew she deserved it all and was willing to accept it.

Luna woke up with a jolt of pain deep in her bones. She groaned, trying to ignore how badly she ached. Her master's musky breath wafted in her snort before she felt soft lips press against hers. She kissed back desperately craving attention and kindness, not all the pain of the past...how much time had passed? She kept on forgetting. More pain flared in her bones as Comic Flare rubbed an open wound.

"..."

Her master smirked at the lack of reaction to pain. He slapped her leg and bit her muzzle. More pain, yet Luna didn't even whimper once. Whatever pain her master brought she deserved. So why bother making noise? Comic tried one more time to hear sound from his pet. He grabbed his cattle prod, turned it on. Using it on her.

"IT HURTS, PLEASE STOP MASTER! IT HURTS!"

But not one peep left Luna's lips. Her body simply couldn't register pain in its sea of endless torment. Emotion was nothing more than the past, her master became past, present, and future. Her soul is dark and empty, only belonging to someone else, not of value without.

"Not even a whimper," he said.

She kept her eyes down. "I'm sure I deserve it."

He sat the cattle prod back on the table. "I think you're ready."

Her ears perk up. "R-really?"

"Of course, pet. I think you learned your lesson," he smiled.

"I have, Master."

He hooked the leash on her and helped her up. She leaned against him as he carried her up the steps. He took her to the bathroom to clean her up a little. Luna stayed quiet while he cleaned her. She knew not to speak unless told otherwise.

Soon after they went into his bedroom. She sat down on the bed. She stretched her legs out and tried standing up without falling over. He sat by her and started messing with her mane. He lifted her chin so she would look at him. She rubbed the side of his arms slowly. Then they kissed.

Luna was getting ready to be pushed onto the bed. But unexpectedly, Comic pulled away from her. His eyes observed her whole body.

"D-did I do something wrong, master?" Luna worried.

"No, pet. You're fine," he answered.

"Okay. I'm glad," she smiled. "I hate when I make you upset."

"I think I went too far...:" He got up and went by the door. "I shouldn't have left you alone with them," he whispered to himself.

Luna got up from the bed and waited for him.

"We're going to let you rest and heal up a little, okay?"

She nodded. "Okay."

"Wait here. I'll be back," he ordered.

She shook her head yes. He trotted out of the room, closing it behind him. Luna sat back down on the bed and waited patiently for him.

She went over to the desk and saw that the folder that she first found a while back. She wondered if any new mare were added. Comic did bring a few new faces around, but they never stayed longer than 2 nights. She didn't know what happened to them after that. Luna knew Upper Crust came every now and then, but Luna had only seen her a few times. One of those times, she brought a new slave around and Luna had the opportunity to help break her along with them.

About 15 minutes had passed and he still hadn't returned. She began to worry. What was taking him so long? Was he testing her again? She looked at the door but knew not to go out and check. So she waited and layed down.

She felt her eyes getting heavy and thought a small nap couldn't hurt. She closed her eyes ready to fall asleep. However, she then began to hear screaming. She sat up and listened. She couldn't make out what was being said but she knew that somepony screamed, and it didn't sound like Comic.

"Master? You okay?" She went by the door and put her ear against the door. Luna jumped as the sound of a loud bang came out of nowhere. She backed away from the door.

The screaming resumed. This time she could hear Comic. It sounded as if he was fighting with somepony. Or that he pissed off the one screaming at him.

Was somepony here to hurt them? She knew that he messed with a few ponies he shouldn't have. Luna was trembling now. They were there to hurt her and Comic wouldn't be able to protect her from them! They would look in the room at any moment. She needed to hide...but where?

Luna couldn't see any place where she could escape without being noticed. She was stuck in the room. The only place she could see was under the bed. She quickly got on the floor and rolled her under the bed. She prayed that they wouldn't look in the bedroom and just moved on. The screaming continued and it seemed to get louder. She had to trust that Comic would take care of them, but if he didn't, she needed to make sure they didn't find her as well.

Despite her wishes though, it was only a few seconds when the door slowly opened. She saw a few hooves trot in. She didn't recognize them, so it had to be bad. Her eyes widened and her breath was shaky. Luna started crying silently. She covered her mouth, hoping they wouldn't hear her.

Please leave. Please don't find me.

"Find anything?" A male voice asked. It was somepony from outside the room.

"Not her," A female voice answered. Luna whimpered. She knew they were talking about her.

There was a moment of silence. All she could hear was the screaming. she almost thought that they were going to leave.

Luna saw the mare trotting around the room before going to the bed.

No, no, no...please no.

Then soon after, a pair of dark purple eyes were staring at her. The mare stepped back a little as she was obviously not expecting to find Luna there. Luna yelped as she tried backing away from her, peeing a little.

"Please don't hurt me! Please. Whatever he did to you, please give him mercy. Please leave us alone. Don't hurt him!"

"Shh, we're not here to hurt anypony," the mare quickly said. Her mane was turquoise and it was in a braid. Her coat was green and her cutie mark was a magnifying glass. "It's okay." She pulled out a badge from her vest and showed it to her. "Don't be afraid. I'm private investigator Lochaven Gideon. I was hired by your sister to help find you. We've been looking for you for months now."

Luna took a double take; no way she heard that correctly. Before, she had dreamt of the moment to come, but it was clear that would never happen. But now this detective here was telling her otherwise; it couldn't be true, not after so much time had passed.

"You're lying!" Luna shouted. "I read the newspapers. She was never looking for me."

"Oh Princess Luna..." her voice was filled with regrets. Luna flinched at hearing herself being called princess or even her name. It had been so long hearing it, it seemed unreal she was ever Princess Luna. "Your sister made a lot of bold choices but she was always looking for you."

"She...she was?"

"Of course." The mare turned her head towards the door. "Shining Armor, she's in here. She's alive."

"What?!" It was a voice of disbelief. Luna saw another set of hooves come into the room and looked under the bed. Sure enough, it was Shining Armor, staring speechlessly at her.

"S-shining Armor?" Luna couldn't believe her eyes.

"It's okay, Princess Luna. We're here to take you home," he said. He reached out a hoof to her but Luna only backed away from them and peed a bit again.

"Hey, get away from the bed," The mare said. She pushed Shining Armor away and the two of them stood up. "Can't you see she's terrified? Let her come out on her own."

"Lochevan she-"

"Let her come out. She's clearly terrified," she interrupted. "Just come out when you're ready Princess Luna. Nopony is going to force you."

Luna stood still. She wasn't sure what to believe. Was this a test? Was she hallucinating? He could have drugged her again and this was just all in her head... It had to be the case.

But what if it wasn't? Then she could go home and be back with her sister. Sounds again from far off interrupted her thoughts.

Wait, who's screaming?...no, it can't be!

"Who's yelling?"

"It's Celestia," Shining Armor said. "She had a little trouble on the way in, and I think she's giving your captor a piece of her mind...if she hasn't killed him yet..."

"No don't let her kill him!" Luna screamed, her voice cracking.

Shining was taken aback. "I-I was just kidding! I promise you, he's alive." He finished with an uneasy look to Lochaven.

Luna breathed heavily for a bit before slowly crawling to the edge of the bed. It had to be Celestia. Her sister was here to save her. After so long of waiting and crying, Celestia was here. Luna poked her head out and stared up at them.

"Promise he won't...hurt me?"

"Promise." They both said, before Lochaven whispered something to Shining, whose face contorted slightly.

Shining reached a hoof out to her. Luna carefully grabbed it and allowed the two to pull her out from under the bed. The second Luna was pulled out, she went and hugged both of them, crying loudly in their arms, taking them by surprise. Though, they didn't push her away and allowed her to let it all out.

"T-thank you. Thank y-you s-so m-much." Her tears were falling non-stop.

Shining was the first to back away. "You would have done the same for Celestia."

"Speaking of which..." The screaming wasn't as loud as before but could still be heard. "Princess Celestia! We found her! We found Luna and she's...she's okay," Lochevan called out.

"Sister!"

Luna tensed up. It was Celestia's voice, and only a room away from them. Her sister was so close. It felt like an eternity as she heard the hoofsteps getting closer to the bedroom. Was it really her sister? Was she actually going to see her?

Then, stood only about three feet away, was Celestia, who at the sight of Luna dropped to the floor. It was obvious that her disappearance had done its part wearing the alicorn down. Her flowing mane wasn't rippling normal and her coat was clumpy and dirty. She had black circles under her eyes from what seemed to be stress and lack of sleep, but it was her sister.

"S-sister?"

"L…Luna…are you alright?"

Luna smiled brightly as she began to cry. This time in joy. "Sister!" She couldn't move. Luna was trying to tell herself that this was impossible and was trying to come up with reasons why it couldn't be real.

And yet, there she was. A mess but here, staring right back at her.

Celestia immediately stood up and ran to her little sister to give her the biggest hug she possibly could, tears streaming from her eyes. Luna flinched. It hurt her body to hold onto this tight but at the moment she didn't care. She hugged her sister, afraid to let her go.

"I-I can't believe this. I...oh thank the stars. My little sister is okay," Celestia cried as she nuzzled Luna.

Luna smiled, tears in her eyes. "I-I waited so l-long for you."

"I'm so so sorry. I'm here now. You're safe." Celestia's voice cracked a little.

Luna couldn't speak anymore. Everything was happening too fast. Too fast to comprehend. It was too much for her. It couldn't be true but yet it was. She couldn't believe it even now as it was all unfolding. She finally felt her body giving out. She couldn't tell if it was from the constant pain and her being so weak or if it was the utter shock of being found and rescued. Maybe it was both.

The last thing she remembered was Celestia calling her name as she fell into her arms, unconscious.

Luna opened her eyes some time later.

She struggled to stay awake, but managed to keep her eyes open. She looked around the room and realized that she was in the hospital.

She tried sitting up but was too weak to. She was laying down on a nice comfy bed. She lifted the blanket up and saw her body was wrapped with bandages and saw that there was a tube connected to her hoof.

She felt a tap on her shoulder causing her to yelp loudly.

"Hey, it's okay," replied the calming voice of Shining Armor.

Luna turned her head and saw him, looking like he needed some sleep.

"It's okay. You're just at the hospital. They took good care of you," he tried to comfort Luna.

Luna didn't say anymore. There were so many things she wanted to ask. So many things that she needed to know. But she kept her mouth shut and just stared out into the hall. Where was her sister now?

Shining seemed to notice this. "Is there something you need?"

Luna said nothing.

"You can ask me anything," he assured her.

Luna shook her head.

"Why not?" His voice was calm and gentle.

"I don't ask questions," Luna whispered.

He sighed. "You mean you don't or you weren't allowed to?"

Luna's eyes went to the floor.

"Princess, I don't know all of what happened to you or what you went through but I do know that...whatever it was, it terrified you," he started to say. "He made you feel like you didn't have a choice and you had to be quiet. I don't know what to say to convince you otherwise. I'll let you know that you are safe. But just know that I'm not Comic. So whatever he would do to you, know I won't. It's my job to protect you!"

"Some job you did!" Luna snapped.

"I'm sorry, princess, but I'm here now," he said with a sigh.

"W-where's my sister?" Luna asked after a moment.

Shining sighed in relief. "In the waiting room, sleeping with Twilight."

"Comic always said that Hot Ass and Purple Ass were a-" she said before catching herself.

Shining cringed a bit, but just gave a goofy smile.

"Okay..." She smiled at the thought that her sister was near them. But then another thought came to mind. "And Comic?"

"In the Canterlot dungeon. Your sister did a number on him, but nothing he can't recover from. Did you want to determine his punishme-"

"He'll be okay then?"

Shining looked at her, confused. "Would you be upset if he's not?"

"I...I don't know," Luna said as a tear rolled down her cheek.

"Why did you hide?" he asked.

"He pissed off a lot of people, so I assumed they were there to hurt us," Luna explained.

"Well you weren't entirely wrong. He did 'piss off' your sister," Shining laughed.

Luna laughed at that as well. "I guess so. Ugh, I've gotta take a dump."

"Um, I suppose you've become accustomed to more crass language and behavior from your time with Comic, Princess… Celestia said she doesn't want you using it in front of the public. And speaking of the public, investigator Lochaven has some questions, if you're able," he said before stepping back.

"Of course…" Luna said, barely noticing Lochaven standing in the entrance.

"Now…" Lochaven started as she stepped towards Luna. "I know this is hard for you and you're now just processing everything, but I need to know everything you know about the other victims. We know he took more, and it seems that you are the only one to have survived."

She wasn't wrong. Even now when Luna was still thinking about everything she had endured and been through the last few months. She couldn't put it all in words. Everything she heard and knew. What would they do if she spoke up? What if they went after her sister? What if they went after her?

"It's a lot..." Luna said, turning to look away.

"As expected," Lochaven said with a sigh.

Luna sighed heavily. "If it's alright with you, can I wait for my sister? I would feel better if Celestia was here."

"Sure," Lochaven said as she trotted away to the waiting area.

Luckily for them, they didn't have to wait long. It was only a few moments later when they heard shouting coming from down the hall. But it wasn't anger like before. It was the sound of desperation.

"Where is she?! Take me to her. I want to see her!"

"Come on, Sunhorse! You can't shout in the middle of the hospital!"

Celestia went up to the door and smiled brightly seeing Luna. Twilight and Shining Armor stood nearby as she gasped.

Luna wanted to just run up to her sister and jump on her and hold her so tightly. But she knew she couldn't. It hurt even to sit up as she looked at them.

"Oh Princess Luna, I am so happy to see you okay. We were all so worried," Twilight said as she tried not to cry.

"It's so good to see you too, Purple Ass!" Luna shouted, smiling back before putting a hoof to her mouth in shock.

"Um, it's okay, I suppose that was what he called me when planning to…? Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be back to normal in no time, heh heh..." Twilight finished with a rather nervous smile and chuckle, stepping aside.

Celestia trotted in as Twilight leaned on the door.

Lochaven stood up from her chair. "I was just checking on her. You were asleep and Shining had already..."

"I'm not mad. I just wanted to see Luna. I couldn't wait any longer." Celestia ran to Luna and hugged her once more. They cried, but not as loudly as before. This time they simply held onto each other not wanting to let the other go.

"I'm so sorry, Celestia. I'm so sorry about what I said and how I treated you," Luna cried. "I'm sorry for being a bad sister to you and...and..."

"Luna, stop. Stop," Celestia tried calming her sister down. "That night doesn't matter anymore, and frankly, it never did."

"No. Please let me finish." She didn't wait for an answer.

"I'm sorry for leaving. You wanted to talk about it and I want it to be mad. You wanted to fix things and I just liked it broken. I wanted to keep it broken. I should have listened to you. You were right. I wanted to think you were trying to treat me like a child but I was being a child. You were trying to protect me and I did not listen. I love you. I love you more than anything in the entire universe. And I promise I will never ever take that for granted as I've been doing for so long."

Celestia placed a hoof on Luna's. "Sister, we both said things we didn't mean. That fight doesn't define us as sisters. It was just a fight. All that matters now is that you're alive, safe and okay."

"I want to believe this is over but I know it's not," Luna said.

Celestia nodded. "Let's not think about that now. I'm just so glad to have you back."

"We all are," Twilight agreed. "And I might be able to help with your recovery, I read up on how to deal with this kind of trauma…"

"We all worked so hard to find you, and we'll all be here for you, princess," Shining Armor said.

Luna hugged her sister tight and smiled back at her. For the first time in a long time, she felt at peace. Peace settled down in her soul.

"I am too, but what happens now?"

"Will the…bastard...get a good bit of as-buttscrewing before the...guillot-" she started, with a look of sadistic glee that made Twilight seem uneasy.

Celestia, still holding on to her sister, put a hoof to her mouth and smiled. "Now, we stick together. I think I can arrange a short vacation for us, after Twilight has gotten you...more stable."

So much love bubbled; her chest nearly exploded. And Luna could forget her trauma, pain, and tears. She could let go of everything that was done to her. She knew it wouldn't last.

But for the moment, she could enjoy the fact that she was now finally safe in the comfort of her sister's loving arms.

Author's Note:

I finally did it. I finally finished it. This particular chapter was probably the hardest one to write out of them all. I know it took me like 3 years to finish this but with stress and working on other stories, I didn't always have the chance to work on this one. I know I said this before but this was the one story I actually nearly called it quits on but there were so many people that wanted to see how it ended and it really pushed me to finish this. I thank all who inspired me to keep going and to those who helped me improve and fix the story and to those who didn't hate me for it. You guys all rock and I am forever grateful for it all.

Though I do have plans for this story as a prequel since many of you guys want to know Celestia's side(like so many), I don't plan on posting anything new until at least the summer. But I will say that I have already started working on it. But I rather focus my time on my other stories before I push into another what could potentially lead to a series.

But once, again thanks for the support and I hope you continue reading when I have next for this story and check out my other work. Thanks to optimusprime142 for helping with the idea and getting me started. Thanks to Nebbie for working so hard on fixing this and improving this story so much. And finally thanks to TehUltimmareFreakRobot for their love and is the reason why didn't give up on this. Thank you for not giving up on me.

But as for this type of dark story, I don't think I ever see myself writing this kind of stuff because it eats out my soul. So anything else for this series is definitely going to be less dark but I guess we'll see what happens. Hope you enjoyed it and as always...

Till Next Time!
