The following is an EXCERPT. For the full story, go to Fimfiction.net: www.fimfiction.net/story/59892

I'm guilty.

It's true, and it's hardly befitting the way a Princess of Equestria should feel. After all, my only sister is finally back. I should be happy. Overjoyed, even. But the truth is, as much as I love her, I was secretly happy when I sent her to the moon. And that makes me a bad sister.

I'm jealous.

Over a thousand years ago, Luna and I made a pact to protect Equestria together. The mare whose coat was as dark as the night would rule the moon. The mare whose coat was as bright as the day would rule the sun. We shared our rule not in terms of territory, but in terms of time. We would have equal power as co-rulers, even though she was the younger. Even though I was the wiser.

As the bright, lively avatar of the day, they sang praises of me. It was an amazing feeling at first. My portrait was displayed in every home. Newborn foals were named after me. Many unicorn fillies wanted to be just like me when they grew up. My little ponies - they adored me, appreciated me. They made festivals celebrating the alicorn sisters and their victory. The Summer Sun Celebration was created in honor of the great deeds I had done. They came far and wide to pay their respects to me and watched as I raised the life giving sun. As the light kissed their faces, their hearts melted at the sight of their pink-maned rescuer soaring through the blue sky, her white coat glistening in the sun. They loved me so much, they tried their best to spend as much time as they could with me. Luna and I were travelling heroes, soon hailed to become rulers. After we moved into the castle and started a new government, they still came from all corners of Equestria, begging for an audience. My audience. Every little problem was mine to solve. Every engagement simply had to have my presence. Over time, the repetitiveness wore me out and I became tired of it all. But still they adored me and fawned over me. What they didn't realise, was that they were suffocating me.

They wouldn't leave me alone.

They. Wouldn't. Leave. Me. ALONE.
