The next morning, Skye got up early and started to put the finishing touches on Applebloom's birthday present. It a was a little hoverboard, made of a round metal plate, with an engine, folded up landing gear, and a propeller underneath it. He painted it yellow with red apples all over it, the button to activate the landing gear was on the upper left, the button to turn it on was on the upper right. Today, he was testing it out.

"Hey, Daddy!", Emily exclaimed, running up next to him, "What are you doing?"

"I'm putting the final touches on Applebloom's birthday present. Here, can you help me test it out?", Skye asked.

"Sure thing! What do I do?", she beamed, running through him to the hoverboard.

Skye smiled, "I need you to get on it first..."

Emily hopped on, and asked, "What next?"

"Push the button on the button to your right next..."

She pushed the button, and the propeller started spinning and floated about a foot off the ground.

"Now push the button to your left..."

She then pushed the left button, and the landing gear folded up underneath it, and she started zipping around the hangar.

"Wheee! This is great! Of course I don't need this, I can fly on my own!", Emily beamed, landing it and turning it off.

"Well, we know that works! I think it's good to go!", Skye smiled, as his spectral sweetie jumped into his arms.

Applejack walked in the hangar, "Hey, Sugarcubes! What are you two doing?"

"Daddy was finishing Applebloom's birthday present!", Emily grinned as she charged Applejack with a hug.

"Can I see it?", she asked.

"Yeah, sure! I think she'll love it! She always tells me how she'd love to fly, and well, I got the second best equivalent! This hoverboard!", Skye smiled, putting his arm around Applejack.

Applejack looked worried, "Are you sure it's safe?"

"Oh, Baby...of course it's safe! I would never make anything to hurt your sister!", he reassured her, kissing her lips.

Emily got a look of shock on her face, "Daddy! I thought you loved Mommy! Why?"

Skye sighed, "Emily, sweetie. Your mother and I aren't together anymore because...well...she was the one who killed you."

"What? No! It's not true! I won't believe! Mommy loves me! She would never do that!", Emily screamed, shoving him away, and disappearing.

"Emily! No, wait! Come back! Oh no! We've got to find her!", he cried, tears flooding his eyes.

Applejack hugged him tightly and said, "Don't worry, Skye...we'll find her!"

"Okay, one more time...you want me to help you find what?", Twilight asked, with a look of pure confusion on her face.

"Skye's daughter! Who's a ghost! She's disappeared and we need help finding her!", Applejack explained, for the third time.

Twilight sighed, "Well, I guess you're not lying...but...where'd Skye have daughter...surely it wasn't with you..."

"No...it was from his time with...ahem...Mandy...", Applejack whispered, afraid of upsetting Skye more than he already was.

"Ohhh...well, there's no time to lose! Let's go find her!"

"It took a few minutes as Twilight used her Spectral Searching Spell (SSS) to find her, sitting under a tree, crying.

Skye went and sat next to her as she sobbed, "It's not true, is it, Daddy?"

He sighed, "Yes, it's true..."

"But why?! I thought she loved me!"

"She did, until I started to spend more time with you then her. Then, one night, she took you and tossed you into the sea. I'm so, so, so sorry! I should have never let go! But I can promise you, you'll get the family you deserve! You, me, and Applejack, we'll be a big, happy family! Is that okay? If anyone is to blame for your death, it's me. I got so caught up in being a father, I neglected your mother and drove her to jealousy. Can you ever forgive me?", Skye explained, his face damp with tears.

Emily looked at Applejack and Twilight, who were standing back a few paces, then at Skye.

"Daddy...it's not your fault. It was Mommy. Moms aren't supposed to get jealous of their children. If anyone deserves to be your wife and my mom, it's Applejack.", Emily sniffed, hugging her papa.

Applejack came over and smiled, "Aww...now, I wouldn't exactly say I DESERVE to be his wife. I mean, I'd like it, but I ain't done anything to deserve that."

Emily retorted, "Of course you have! You've taken very good care of Daddy! And you helped him get through the tough spots in his life. If that isn't deserving, I don't know what is!"

Skye grinned, "So Applejack...would you like to complete this family?"

Applejack beamed, "If you're asking me to marry you, then the answer to that is yes!"

"Finally! A mommy who'll love me!", Emily cheered.

"Sugarcube...you're the most adorable filly I've ever seen! How could I not love you!", Applejack smiled, kissing her forehead, walking home with them.

Twilight stood there, alone in the park, with her mind blown, "What the hell did I just watch?"
