It had been three weeks since Sarah had first arrived in Canterlot and now she stood across from Luna, Daybreaker in her grasp. With a cry, she charged forwards and brought the sword downwards at the mare she loved. With the most casual of ease, Luna deflected the blade to the side with Moonlight and then brought the massive sword around to bat at Sarah. The woman ducked beneath the sweep and brought Daybreaker up again, slashing at Luna’s neck.

The blade was deflected once more and Luna pressed her advantage, forcing Sarah back with a dozen quick slashes all of which the woman managed to avoid, sweat dripping down her brow as she brought Daybreaker up to defend herself. The two fought for several more minutes before Nim finally chose to intervene.

“For fuck’s sake, we’re getting married in a hour, stop sparring and go get cleaned up damnit!” she shouted, appearing in between the pair.

Sarah’s eyes widened and she pulled her blade up before it could bite into Nim’s shoulder, then they narrowed. “Nim, what the hell are you doing?”

“Telling you two imbeciles to hit the showers,” Nim said, rolling her eyes as if it was obvious. “Honestly, when did I become the responsible one?”

“Just now apparently, though you’re not the sensible one,” Luna pointed out, Moonlight was inches away from her throat.

Nim rolled her eyes and moved the Zweihander’s blade away from her throat and twisted around to look at Luna. “I’m not supposed to be sensible, I’m technically a Spirit of Chaos. Now come on, you’re both all sweaty and we can’t have that if we’re going to say our vows.”

“I still don’t see why we even need to bother,” Sarah grumbled, shaking her head. “We already know that we love each other... there’s no point in this big ceremony.”

“I agree but it’s the way things are done,” Luna agreed, sheathing Moonlight across her back. “And after this, there won’t be any more ponies who try to woo me over from you so we should simply take comfort in that.”

“Yeah... I don’t want to have to break any more jaws,” Sarah agreed, nodding her head with an annoyed grumble as she sheathed Daybreaker and glanced at Nim. “And you won’t have to turn any more into animal crackers.”

Nim simply chuckled. “That was very fun.”

“Rather disturbing if you ask me,” Luna said, shaking her head. “But at least you reversed the spell.”

“Of course, I wouldn’t curse someone to that existence,” Nim agreed before looking at them both. “Okay, enough stalling you two, it’s time for you both to get ready.”

Luna and Sarah both rolled their eyes but the mare’s horn flashed and they appeared in the bathroom. A pair of quick showers later and they began to get dressed. Luna was wearing her wondrous shimmering dress quite like the stars themselves. Sarah for her part had a black dress with little to no real adornment, much to Rarity’s despair. For Nim, she chose to completely forgo a dress and had instead wrapped herself in a cloak of concealing fog.

“I still wish you’d both gone with something more conventional...” Luna said as she looked over the pair.

Sarah snorted. “Hey, I’m wearing a dress aren’t I?”

“And there’s nothing wrong with a cloak of fog,” Nim added as she smoothed the ‘edges’ of the mist around her body. “Besides, it makes me look more mystical.”

Luna let out a small sigh but shook her head. “Very well, very well,” she said before smiling. “Oh well, it’s time to get going, shall we?”

“Of course,” Sarah said with a small smile. “Heh, how many of those nobles out there do you think would faint if Nim and I rode you down the aisle?”

“Too many,” Luna said before smirking. “I think we shall have to count.”

Sarah smirked and with a practiced motion mounted her love, making sure that she didn’t mess up the dress and then offered Nim a space in front of her. The Draconequus let out a snicker and joined her, wrapping herself around Sarah’s chest ever so slightly. The woman gave her a kiss on the lips and then tapped her feet against Luna’s side.

“Giddyup,” she said, unable to resist the temptation.

“...” Luna turned to regard her silently.

“...?” Sarah looked into her eyes, raising an eyebrow ever so slightly.

“Oh just do it,” Nim said, rolling her eyes.

“Neigh,” Luna sighed sarcastically before she set out from the room, the other two balanced on her back.

All along the corridor, guards snapped to attention at their passing, and then did their best not to laugh at the sight of their Queen and her wives to be. Over the last few weeks, that had become the expected reaction from seeing the three. It didn’t take them long to reach the wedding chamber, Luna casually opening the door to reveal a massive room absolutely stuffed with ponies.

A shocked hush fell over the room as the lunar alicorn walked casually down the aisle towards her sister who stood at the front of the room, her face an imperceptible mask.

Really? Celestia mentally inquired of her. You had to do this?

They insisted upon it, Luna replied, resisting the urge to chuckle as one of the more uptight of the nobles’ mouth dropped open.

There was no more time for words as the trio reached the front of the room, Sarah and Nim dismounting Luna’s back. Celestia glanced between the two of them blandly before she shook her head and began the many times recited speech. Sarah barely paid any attention to it, instead, she focused on keeping one hand on Luna’s neck and the other on Nim’s shoulder.

“... and you may now kiss the brides,” Celestia finally said after what seemed like an hour.

“Finally,” Sarah murmured before looking at Luna and Nim, struggling to decide on who to kiss first.

“We seem to have a problem...” Luna mused.

“I could grow another head, probably,” Nim pointed out quietly.

“Na, fuck it, to the mare who first stole my heart goes the first kiss,” Sarah said, pulling Luna into a particularly deep one, much to the shock of several nobles. Luna responded by kissing back just as passionately before finally pulling away, leaving Sarah breathless for a moment before she turned to Nim.

“And to the one who kept my sorry ass alive in that hell-hole goes the second kiss,” she stated before pulling Nim into her arms and laying an intense kiss upon her lips. Nim melted into the kiss and for a long moment, time stopped around them.

When they finally broke the kiss, Nim turned to Luna and before the alicorn could react, pulled her into a kiss as well. Luna didn’t struggle and instead she deepened the kiss, her wings rising ever so slightly as the Draconequus’ tongue danced with her own. Sarah just stood there, a big smile on her face as Celestia did her best not to chuckle at the display. The pair separated and Sarah pulled Nim and Luna into a one armed hug and pulled them both against her.

“So... what now?” she asked, ignoring everyone but the two of them.

“Well, traditionally we’d mingle and eat cake for a little bit before riding off into the sunset in a carriage,” Luna answered with a small chuckle.

“Yes, it’s all very romantic,” Nim agreed, nodding her head.

“Hmmm... screw that noise,” Sarah said, grinning. Without giving either of them time to react, the woman had swept Nim into her arms and then leapt onto Luna’s back. “Now then, what do you say we get out of here Luna?”

Luna glanced back at her, a smile on her face. “I think that can be arranged,” she glanced at Celestia. “We’ll be back eventually sister.”

With that, the three vanished in a flash of light leaving the white alicorn in front of a large crowd of shocked nobles. Celestia sighed within her mind before turning to address them.

“So... who’d like cake?”

Sarah leaned against Luna’s side, Nim curled up against her chest as the three watched the sunset from the porch of their new cabin on the mountain. “You know... this is nice,” the woman said softly as she snuggled closer to the mare.

“Yes, yes it is,” Luna agreed, nuzzling the woman’s head lovingly. “I shall treasure this moment within my memory for the rest of my life.”

“As shall I,” Nim agreed, twisting her neck to kiss Sarah on the lips.

“And to think... it all started in a supply closet,” Sarah commented with a light chuckle as she nuzzled Luna’s soft furry neck.

“Yes, with you almost getting decapitated,” Luna agreed, nuzzling the woman’s face. “What an adventure we’ve had the three of us.”

“Yeah... I’m glad it’s over though,” Sarah said quietly. “I just want to spend the rest of my life with the two of you, never having to worry about being killed and raped by raiders ever again.”

“You haven’t had to worry about that for quite some time,” Nim pointed out critically.

“True... still... this is nice,” Sarah repeated, her arms wrapping around Nim and pulling her closer as she leaned back against Luna’s side. “I love you both.”

“And we love you Sarah,” Luna said, bringing her head down to rest on the woman’s shoulder. “Forever.”

“Forever,” Nim agreed quietly as she moved her head next to Luna’s.

“Until I die of old age anyways,” Sarah commented quietly.

“Hush, don’t ruin the moment,” Luna said with a snort. “I’m simply thankful to have you both here with me.”

“Indeed and who knows... we have some time to come up with a solution for that little problem,” Nim stated. “For now, why don’t we just watch the sunset?”

Sarah smiled, bent down to kiss her and then gave Luna one before turning back towards the setting sun, a smile on her face for she knew that even in the darkest night, she’d never be cold again.

Author's Notes:

E.N.: Well then, that was certainly a fun story to edit, Ed got some more ideas so an arc was cut out. Mostly about the noble attempting to woo Luna. But from what I saw of the first chapter of his next story he seems to be going back to his “roots”, well without all the crowbarred pinkie, which is all I’m going to say ;)

AN: Yeah, anyways, this was a fun story to write, even if I now consider it as more of DLC for the first WM, oh well, that’s how things go sometimes.
