Luna knew her crime and she never denied it. In 1900 she was banished from the paradise she once ruled to an unknown planet light years away where she would be forced to spend her 500 winter banishment. It is now 2368, 468 years later she settled in to her new life joining Star Fleet on it's first day of being mainstream in the late 21st century and has never looked back. There in Star Fleet she met her now boyfriend Lieutenant Commander Data on board the 6th Star Fleet Enterprise she has served on.
She became an engineer going from working on the first warp engines barely meeting warp 5 to the newest model that is capable of warp 10. It was common knowledge she had a dark past but out of courtesy never said a questioning word.
I suspect you will probably be wanting and explanation. Luna was born the younger sister to Celestia, the two sisters had a great power. Celestia had control over the sun and Luna had control over the moon. The two sisters ruled over there home land for hundreds if not thousands of years bringing nothing but peace and harmony. Till one day Luna noticed how not many of there subjects basked in the cool silvery rays of the moon instead opting for the bright golden rays of her sisters sun. Day by day jealousy grew, that jealousy turned into resentment then just pure hate. No one cared for her, she was frequently forgotten about entirely. One evening years of resentment and hated ripped itself free from it's cage engulfing Luna. She turned into a shadow of the night, a force of pure evil wanting nothing but admiration and not to be over shadowed any more. She called upon the forces of darkness to join her cause. A great battle between the two sisters followed. Towards the end Luna was winning till Celestia used the 6 gem stones that each possess one of the 6 elements of harmony. The force of the wave was enough to strip Luna of her dark form as well as propel her galaxies away to a place called Earth.
Luna woke to the familiar sent of her boyfriend wrapped around her, it puzzled her greatly. Data didn't sleep so why was he still here, thats when she peered up to see she was lying on his chest and he obviously didn't want to move her. "Morning Data," she muttered reaching up to touch his smooth cheeks, "Good morning Luna, I hope you don't mind I just didn't want to wake you and I like watching you sleep," Data always the gentleman, "It's fine and if you wanted to go you should have just thrown me off I'm one heavy sleeper, I could probably sleep through the Enterprise falling apart around me," "You say that in a way that is meant to be funny but I do not see how the Enterprise's destruction would be a humorous topic," "It's a figure of speech, an exaggeration so to speak and it's to early in the morning for literacy lessons." She grumbled climbing out of there bed and towards the shower.
Hey at least she was working on the bridge this morning that would be interesting getting out of engineering for once. Around half way through her shift they picked up a peculiar hail, it was more of a melody, no it was a lullaby. Luna listened tentatively recognising the sweet comforting bridge to be Celestia's.

She hadn't noticed the tears slip out till Captain Picard asked, "Lieutenant are you alright?" "Yeah this is my sisters song. She's checking up on me, sir can we return the channel please?" He signalled to Worf to do as such, "Tia I'm sorry. You shouldn't be suffering for my misdeeds, I am paying for them. But just for you though."

With the channel closing with the melody Luna was finding it hard to hold back and bury her pain. She left before anyone saw her tears and to avoid the questions about her 'crimes' but first she was determined to get drunk to the ceiling.
About an hour later Will and Deanna came cruising into one of the few places on the ship where there are alcoholic beverages. What wasn't expected on there part was for Luna to be so drunk she was trying to walk up walls like an ant (sorry lame I know but I was gonna go with spiders then decided against it as not to have nightmares tonight). "Uh Riker to bridge," "Bridge here," "You might wanna send woah!" He ducked to dodge a stray dart that was poorly aimed, "As I was saying before I had to dodge the flying darts you might wanna send Data down here, oh no no no don't do that!" Both Will and Deanna yelled simultaneously as Luna attempted to take a couple dart throws but was aiming in the opposite direction of the board.
Data nodded to the Captain as he left his post to see what the hell all this was about. He waltzed in just in time to stop Luna taking yet another shot of tequila, the alcohol on her breath was clear, eminent and horrid. "I got it from here thank you Commander, councillor," he nodded wrapping on of her arms around his shoulders to get the very drunk Luna back home. Data carefully led the two on them through the halls of the Enterprise rather enjoying Luna's incoherent and random stutters of repeated conversation. He laid her down on the bed before leaving to do what he needed to do. After probably a couple of hours he decided to experiment a little. She was practically passed out by the time they got there, he had read somewhere that a good way to wake someone up quickly and get some sense into them you throw them in a cold shower. That's exactly what he did.
Data leaned against the door as Luna burst her eyes open and pushed her wet fringe from her forehead. "Thanks a lot Data! And that was sarcasm," "Your welcome. As funny as it was seeing you drunk it's more amusing to see you snap back is it?" "Clap back. But snap back works just as well, now I guess you'd be wanting answers now about the message we got earlier," "Only if you feel up to it," "Somebody else needs to know but after I've had an actual shower." Luna emerged in comfy leggings and a loose hoodie with her short hair still dripping. She sat at the dining room table with Data and of course a cup of coffee not even sure where to start. Like a weight had been lifted she blurted everything out. He didn't judge he just listened.
But something wasn't quite right about what happened, it was to unnatural for lack of a better word...
