Description
A moment in Equestrian history. This takes place after Princess Platinums funeral right after Celestias Coronation.
_____________________

It was late in the night, only a few more hours until the sunrise. Only a few more hours until Celestia is crowned the new ruler under the three tribes; 'Queen of Equestria'. Luna didn't know what to make of the castle, a place that has been dark and dreary for weeks, now full of decorations. The sight alone made Luna sick to her stomach; she knew that the tribes needed a uniting leader, she knew that someone had to take the place of their mother, she knew that it would be her older sister. But it was all too fast. Too soon. Too fresh.

Luna walked into the throne-room, staring at the empty throne where her mother used to reside. Where her mother used to comfort her after a scolding from her father. She never understood why her father was so mean to her, but she didn't want to think about him in this moment. After all, he was the reason this coronation was happening in the first place, and now she had no mother to comfort her.

'I should get mothers crown.'

She made her way out of the throne-room and towards the castle Library where it was being kept. The least her sister and father could do for her was let her keep mothers crown. The one thing her mother wanted to pass down to her. After walking for a while Luna had finally made it to the Library, upon arrival she could hear somepony inside. She hesitated, nopony should be inside the Library this late. Preparations for the coronation wouldn't start for hours.

Pushing her thoughts aside Luna opened the door to the Library, and-

"Oh."

Of course.

"Hello Luna."

Luna was silent. Not daring to respond to her sister in fear of what would come out.

"What brings you to the library this late?"

Luna remains silent. A sigh escapes Celestia. A moment passes as Luna finally gathers the courage to speak.

"How are you so quiet about your sadness? Did mother not love you enough? Do you feel nothing, much like father?"

"What...?"

"I don't understand any of this! Mothers love surrounded me like the Moon light surrounds the land, yet you act like you've never felt it. You're so eager to replace her."

"Luna that's not-"

"Even now! You're here to take her crown. The one thing that she left for me!" As she used her magic to grab her mothers crown. Tears were now beginning to form in her eyes as she continued speaking.

"Luna please-"

"Stop looking at me like that, with pity in your eyes!"

"Luna, please listen, I never knew you were feeling such grief! You could've come to me or father if-"

"Stop it. You have never been there for me, never comforted me, never stood up for me in front of father! I've been there for myself far more than you've been there for me! And do NOT get me started on father."

Celestia bowed her head, with tears in her eyes. Luna stood looking at her mouth agape; She had never been the one looking down at her sister. She was always the bigger one, the brighter one, the better one. The room was quiet. Luna was quiet, as she was always taught to be after an argument. Celestia was quiet, as her sisters biting words wore on her heart.

"I wont." Celestia said, looking up at her sister, as tears started to flow.

Luna froze, watching as the tears streamed down her face. "What?"

"I wont take mothers crown, you can have it. She meant for it to go to you and I shouldn't go over that, even if father wanted me to." Luna tried to speak but couldn't. All the words she wanted to say escaped her.

Celestia made her way to the doors of the library, leaving to go prepare for the ceremony Luna would have to assume. Watching her sister leave was hard, she wanted to hug her, to say thank you, to say that she loved her, to forgive her like their mother would've wanted. But she didn't. She knew that if she tried it would only make her upset. So she watched as she left, and sat in the quiet library.

With the last bit of their mother.
