Twilight panted as she ran towards the Alliance base, she had just heard that Vaylin had been defeated. ‘After all this time.’ she thought knowing there must have been a cost, she flapped her wings and managed to get into the air. She soared through the sky seeing Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash right next to her. They managed to get there around the same time as the others. All approached the Jedi, their leader, standing before the body of the daughter of Valkorion. The pale yellow pegasus let out a whimper as she approached a body nearby. Twilight swore internally just as a young teenage boy ran up as well panting.

“No.” the pink maned pegasus managed as she knelt by the body. “Torian.”

“Flutters…” Rainbow was choking up as she placed a hand on her friend’s shoulder feeling it shake. “I’m so sorry.”

“I had to make a choice.” the Consular told her and the pegasi said. “I know and he knew you would have made the right decision. You knew he could take care of himself.”

“And I couldn’t?” a Twi’lek spoke up before thinking about it. “Okay so he might be a little more experienced than I am.”

“Enough!” Luna told her crossing her arms across her chest. “He deserves a proper burial.”

“We still have to take control of the Eternal Fleet.” a Twi’lek in armor said and Fluttershy looked at him. “It will have to be quick.”

“Celestia… would you be able to….” the question remained unasked as Celestia’s hand lit up as did the body in front of them. Fire lit up the night as the ponies gathered around. Luna took a deep breath as her eyes turned white. She too lifted up her hand as the ashes were lifted among the stars to take their place next to the fallen heroes. A shadowy figure stayed in the back watching them carefully. Eyes stayed on Fluttershy as the Consular said. “I will deal with this on my own. Stay here please.”

“Understood.” a Sith with blonde hair and gold eyes replied as the Jedi left. The figure lifted a hand snapping the pointer and thumb together. Almost all the ponies vanished, except for the one that had lived in this world her whole life. She had requested to stay there yet a new comer was journeying back with them. The young bounty hunter that agreed to go with Fluttershy. ‘He has no idea what he’s getting into.’ thought Raven before vanishing as well.

Fluttershy opened her eyes to find herself once again amongst the Hall of Worlds. Her friends floating ahead of her in a trance like state. Taking a deep breath she turned around looking for Raven. She knew that she had a lot to tell her friend.

“I don’t hate you and I do forgive you.” she said looking around for the darkly cloaked figure. “It wasn’t your fault that any pain or harm to me happened. It was their own decisions and their own actions. Just as I take responsibility for my own, I will miss Torian just as I will miss Anduin. Yet I know who I can see again and who I cannot. Just like I want to see you again, is that possible?”

“If you want to visit again you can just ask.” Raven spoke up and the pegasus smiled. “You should head to your world. I am sure Brandon would need to adjust rather quickly to his new form.”

“Why would he be different, the Spartans and the other humans didn’t change.” Fluttershy mused before hurrying on as Raven just shrugged saying. “I didn’t teleport them.”

The pink maned mare gave her a smile before hurrying to the door where her world waited and entered. She felt time begin moving again as a figure was moving down the halls of the castle. She let out a yelp when she heard thunder overhead glad to find that she was still the same nervous wreck. ‘Or is that because I was in a warzone?’ she thought before shrugging as Twilight called out. “Spike!”

“Twilight!” the dragon called as he ran forward and swept her off her feet. “Oh man am I glad to see you. Everything has been really stressful, the nobles have been doing their best to take over and ignore everything you said had to be done.”

“Oh really?” Luna’s eyes narrowed at that bit as she began to move away. “I guess we will just have to….”

“Sister, we can deal with them in the morning.” Celestia told her causing the alicorn to give pause. “I want to meet the strangers you brought to the gala.”

“Of course, sister.” the dark blue mare managed out wanting to get to the nobles as the Princess of the Sun turned towards Spike saying. “Do not tell anyone of our arrival, especially the Nobles.”

“Alright.” the dragon replied before showing them where the strange ponies were staying at. “So I found my Core.”

“Really? What is it?” the Princess of Friendship asked glancing back knowing that Cadence was probably where she was last.

“I’m a Fusion Expert, I like to test and experiment with a dragon’s Shout.” he explained as they walked along, Fluttershy calming down the once human Bounty Hunter. He was now a brown and gold Gryphon and was complaining on how he was surrounded by pastel colored ponies. When they arrived at the rooms Spike knocked on the door. Red runes surrounded the handle as it opened up. A dark blue maned mare with light red highlights poked her head out. She smiled saying. “Greetings dragon friend Spike. How has the day been treating you?”

“It’s evening Ley Finder.” Spike told her and the mare blushed before allowing him in. The group followed and all of the ponies in the room turned to stare at Celestia and Luna. One with blue hair and light blue coat moved forward saying. “Our ladies, you have returned.”

“Night Weaver, it is good to see you again.” Luna greeted before looking around. “I see you have gathered your people.”

“Yes, we knew you would need help in the upcoming battles.” the Clan leader spoke as Fluttershy let out a gasp and moved forward to the strange looking ponies saying. “You are Draenei.”

“Yes.” Mana Well replied in confusion as the Princess of the Night looked at the normally shy pony in shock. “How did you know?”

“I have met your people on a world that I have travelled to.” the Pegasus replied and the strange pony nodded his head. Celestia observed all of them taking note of the ones with stranger features but could not understand why they had not come into Equestria before.

“Harmonia lied to us.” Luna said and her sister stared at her as the Princess of the Night nodded her head. The cloaks came off and Celestia let out a small gasp. They had wings as well as horns, Twilight swallowed before asking. “How is this possible?”

“We were created long ago.” Mana Well explained a symbol appearing above his head as an image appeared around them displaying events as he spoke of them. “Discord and the Crystal Heart had wished to give you family. The Tree of Harmony seeing the dangers that forged Alicorns could bring denied them. Hades had a purpose so it allowed him to live but if we had no other purpose than to be a family to you two then nothing but war would come. So the two spirits created us in secret, when the Tree found out it unleashed its fury upon us. Most of our clans were destroyed but those who were left fled. To the sea, to the stars, to places where the tree could not reach. The only one who knew of us was a young student of Arcane yet we do not know what became of him.”

“Harmonia…” Luna started but her sister held up her hoof saying. “Was wrong in what she did, but what do you think would have happened Mana Well if it did not lash out in anger?”

“We would have fought amongst each other like family would have.” the Draenei pony answered honestly and Luna looked away. “If it was not for the actions of the Spirit we would not have split and fled to the places we did. We would not have seen you as our Ladies of the Sky. We would have seen you as rivals.”

“So in a way it prevented the very future it feared.” Twilight mused causing all eyes to look on her. “And if no one else knows about what you really are then there shouldn’t be any trouble. Just as long as you keep those cloaks on.”

“We were planning on doing just that.” Star Shaper said trying to get Pinkie off of him. His sister laughed at the sight giving her a glare he continued. “You should all head to bed, I am sure you had quite the trial.”

“We did.” Celestia said giving them a nod. “It was a pleasure meeting every single one of you, I would like to learn more of your culture at a later date.”

“Good night Lady Celestia.” alicorn with the glowing blue eyes and the light colored spoke giving a bow as the all left. The group parted ways to their own guest rooms as they knew they were not going home until the next day.
