"Does a Pegasus always have to be associated with the sky?"
"Who said family is only defined by blood?"
"You're stronger than you look you know."

Fade to Black.
“Once upon a time... Two sisters Celestia and Luna... Sun and Moon... Luna mad about no nightlife... Nightmare Moon... Elements of Harmony... Banished...” Twilight reads to herself.
She then wonders where she heard about the Elements of Harmony. Spike was resting peacefully on her back, enjoying the Canterlot scenery.
"Spike~ This book I'm reading is quite interesting," she comments.
"You say that about every single book Twilight."
"But isn't it strange? This is the first book I have come across that remotely resembles something that could have happened in our vicinity!"
Spike pulls out a sign that says "Story Progression" on it, looks at the camera, then stores the sign and returns to his resting position.
"Yeah Twilight. You know, I think you should research this topic. Who knows what you'll find?"
Spike winks at the camera. Twilight went into research mode.
"You know what Spike? Let's do that!"
Spike was unceremoniously thrown on top of Twilight's back. He held on tight as Twilight took off towards their tower study room with the book in her magical grip. They passed by their friends who were on their way to one of Moon Dancer's get togethers. Spike apologized as their friends were sent tumbling from Twilight's speed.
"Sorry Twinkleshine! Sorry Lemon Drops! You know what it's like when Twilight gets in one of those modes!"
The two Unicorn friends snickered then responded with some winks.
"No problem! Good luck with the date!"
Spike turned red. He and Twilight started dating when they were younger. Twilight confessed from her heart in a field during one Hearts and Hooves Day.
"Spike, I know we're still young, but I've decided. I'm dedicating my life to you. You're younger than me and assigned to be my 'assistant'? No! Not any longer! From now on, you are my partner. You've been there for me, it's about time I do the same for you."
And I thought I was going to have problems in the romance department because I'm a drake. (This is Spike's Color.)
The purple duo arrives at the room, Twilight suddenly stops after entering, and Spike is sent flying into the bookshelf. The book Twilight needs drops to the ground.
"Huh, how convenient~"
She finds what she wanted to look up.
"Elements of Harmony... see Mare in the Moon?"
She grabs a book on said topic.
"Mare in the Moon... old tale... Pony wanted to rule Equestria... Elements of Harmony Super Rainbow Blast... Longest Day 1000th year escape... *gasp* You know what this means Spike!"
"That our great adventure has just begun?"
"Most likely. Anyways, we need to let the Princess know about this!"
Twilight wrote a short letter: “Teacher! Disaster awaits! The Mare in the Moon is Nightmare Moon and she is going to return and bring eternal night with it! We must stop her! I await your quick response, your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.”
Spike uses his flames to send the letter. After thirty seconds of awkward silence between the couple, a response arrives via D-Mail.
“My dearest student, I understand what you are saying, but seriously relax bro, I got this,” Spike began to read the response.
“What?!”
“Anyways, for your next task, I am sending you to supervise this year's Summer Sun Celebration in Ponyville. Sincerely, Princess Celestia.”
"This princess..."
Twilight noticed their place of residence for their time in Ponyville.
"Huh, we get to stay in the Golden Oak Library. Maybe this could be the vacation we need, filled with cuddles! *squee*"
"All in a day's work huh?"
The two of them packed up for their trip then boarded the train to Ponyville.
Transition to Ponyville.
Spike and Twilight disembarked at their destination train station. Pinkie Pie coincidentally trotted into the scene and caught sight of them.
Is that? It is! It really is them!
Pinkie Pie gasps, jumps up, then tries to flee. Twilight had other ideas. She caught the pony by the tail with her magic.
"Hey! No fair! This never happened in the Prime Universe!" Pinkie protested.
Twilight pulled Pinkie Pie so that their muzzles were touching. Pinkie Pie smiled nervously and started sweating.
"Sure it never happened there, we're in the Friendship is Spike Universe~ Now Pinkie Pie, our meeting has been years in the making, and here it is in Ponyville, face to face. I think that called for a party right? So how about it?"
Pinkie Pie's nervous grin turned into a genuine smile.
"You got it Twilight!"
Twilight released her magical grip and the party pony zipped off to prepare said party. Spike was confused at how Twilight already knew one of the ponies in the town already, but didn't push any questions since he remembered how strange Twilight could be.
Transition to Sweet Apple Acres.
Applejack was harvesting apples from the orchard when she caught sight of Spike and Twilight approaching.
Huh… Wait what?! That is him! And I was doubting him all this time!
"Good Afternoon, my name is Twilight Sparkle," she greeted.
"Howdy Twilight! We here at Sweet Apple Acres sure like making new friends!" Applejack tipped her stetson, wanting to make a good first impression.
"This is Spike, my partner. I am here to supervise preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration, you are in charge of the food correct?"
"Yep! Want to sample some?"
"Um..."
Applejack continued trying to make a good impression on Spike.
"Oh! I know! Why don't I introduce you to the Apple Family?"
Enter huge Apple Family.
Twilight went wide eyed as Applejack introduced her family.
"...Big Mac, Apple Bloom, and Granny Smith! Why Twilight, I'd say you're part of the family already," Applejack finished with a huge grin.
Twilight wanted out. This was getting awkward.
"Aha... Well I see the food situation is definitely handled here with all of you so we'll be on our way."
The Apple Sisters enacted one of their plans. Applejack whispers into Apple Bloom's ear. Apple Bloom gave a wink and trots up to Twilight and puts on the puppy dog eyes of adorableness. Spike was flustered.
"Aren't you gonna stay for brunch?"
"I'm sorry, but we have a lot to do..." Twilight attempted.
The puppy dog eyes intensified and broke Twilight's resolve.
"Fine..."
The Apple Family cheered. Twilight made her way to the table of apple treats with Applejack in tow.
"So Twilight, where are you from?" Applejack asks.
"I am from Canterlot," Twilight replies while digging into an apple pie.
"Oh a city girl huh? That's mighty inter--"
Twilight had the greatest sensation of taste ever.
"Oh my goodness Applejack, these apple pies are the best!"
Applejack hid her scowl from being interrupted and put on a smile instead, "You got that right there Twilight, these are the best apples in all of Equestria!"
Twilight proceeds to devour an illogical amount of apple pies. Meanwhile, Apple Bloom talked with Spike.
"So your name is Spike right?" Apple Bloom was eager to talk to someone new her age.
Spike decided to humor her.
"Yep! Partner and drakefriend to Twilight Sparkle!" Spike replies with pride to which Apple Bloom giggles at.
Apple Bloom trots around Spike and brushes up against him making sure he gets a whiff of her sweet apple scent. She then flicks her tail at his nose causing the poor dragon to go red all over.
The two of them continued to chat all while Apple Bloom was trying similar attempts to make Spike welcome. In the end, Twilight and Spike had to leave. Apple Bloom made sure to give Spike a goodbye hug. After the purple duo left, the Apple Sisters had a small chat.
"Applejack, you're going to have to act on that promise now you know. You're going to share him with me."
"Oh... *blushes*"
Transition to Rainbow Dash segment.
"Ugh... I ate too much pie," Twilight regretted.
"Not my fault that you were so excited when you took your first bite of pie. Anyways, next is a Pegasus named Rainbow Dash who is supposed to be... cleaning... up... the clouds?" Spike answered while looking at the clearly cloud covered sky.
Rainbow Dash, napping on a cloud, woke immediately. She heard her name, so she peeked over her cloud. She was met with a familiar sight.
Huh? Wait what?! He wasn’t joking about that? I thought when he left he was was gone for good!
She flew down, landed in front of the purple duo, and started speaking.
"Did someone say my name? Was it you, awesome dragon?"
"Uhhh... Yes it was. Spike's my name."
"Say, Spike, you're awesome. I'm awesome. You see where I'm going with that?" Rainbow batted her eyes at Spike.
"No, we don't? The skies are clearly not clean for one. By the way, name's Twilight Sparkle," Twilight mocked.
"Well Twilight, I can clean this sky in ten seconds flat!"
"Really? Prove it."
Twilight should not have said that. She used her magic to conjure up a ten second countdown.
"On your mark, get set, GO!"
Rainbow Dash cleared the sky in seven seconds, avoiding a tarnished reputation. In the extra time she had, she used her "patented Rain-Blow Dry" to mess with Twilight's mane as the Unicorn was in a daze with her mouth agape at the feat she had witnessed. The timer Twilight conjured poofed out of existence.
"What did I tell you? Ten Seconds Flat. I had some extra time so I decided to leave you a little present."
Spike just snickered as Twilight looked up to see her mane in a considerably poofy state.
"Ughhh!"
"Yeah, see ya Spike and Twilight! You two sound like so much fun! Gotta Dash!"
Rainbow Dash left, leaving her trademark rainbow trail.
"She sounds fun, don't you think? Hey, don't feel so down, I think you look cute with that mane-do!"
Twilight's ears perked up.
"Really?" she asked.
"Yep. But still, I kind of prefer your everyday mane-do, it's so much more you."
"Dutifully noted."
Transition to Town Hall.
Twilight and Spike trotted/walked into the tall hall, impressed with the simplicity of the structure.
"Alright Spike, we're at the Town Hall. A Unicorn named Rarity is supposedly here doing the decorations."
"Not bad, the decorations are nice. Ah! That must be her now!"
"Right you are Spike. *ahem* Hello, my name is Twilight Sparkle and--"
"Tut-tut, hold on a moment dear, I'm 'in the zone'~ And... there we go, hello there my name is Rarity and..." Rarity turned from working on decorations and saw Twilight's frazzled mane, "Wahaha! What happened to your coiffure?"
"My mane? Oh yes... Rainbow Dash..." Twilight scowled.
"Twilight, this just won't do! Let me take you back to my place, the Carousel Boutique, to fix you up and... Huh?!?!" Rarity caught a glance of Spike.
I didn't even think that was possible...
"Dragon? What's your name?" Rarity inquired.
"My name is Spike!"
Rarity went wide eyed. She snapped back to reality, put on a smile instead, and patted Spike on the head.
"Well it's a pleasure to make you an acquaintance then Spike~ But for now I think we should get Twilight a mane fixing."
Awkwardest conversation ever.
Transition to Carousel Boutique.
"So Twilight, where are you from?" Rarity asks Twilight as she is fixing up her mane-do.
"I come from Canterlot," Twilight responded, "WAH!"
Rarity was immediately in front of Twilight, eyes sparkling.
"Canterlot? *squeals* The capital? We have got to talk about there sometime! All the fashion trends start there you know!"
"Yes... I have noticed that Rarity."
The two Unicorns and Spike proceeded to partake in small talk about Canterlot, Rarity deciding not to press the matter of what she thought when she first saw Spike. In the end, Rarity proved to be a good acquaintance.
Transition to Fluttershy's Cottage.
"Spike, our last stop will be with Fluttershy who is supposed to be doing the music."
"Huh, a personality in a name, who'd have thought?"
"Eh, we'll see."
They trotted/walked a bit more.
"There she is now!"
Fluttershy was busy training birds to do the fanfare for Princess Celestia's arrival. At least until...
"Hi! My name is Twilight Sparkle... and sorry to frighten your birds... and... you are?"
"Um... my name is... *squeak*"
"I'm sorry I didn't quite hear that."
"My name is...*squeak*"
Poor Fluttershy couldn't get her act together. Luckily for her, she didn't need to as her birds came back.
"Well it seems your birds have come back so I guess we'll be going now."
We? She's not alone?
Fluttershy got her answer as Twilight turned around and saw someone familiar trailing her.
Huh?!?! How?! I must…!
"*GASP* Spike!" Fluttershy was immediately next to Spike.
"Whoa!" Spike blurted.
"Hi, I'm Fluttershy."
"Um Hi? How do you know my name?"
"Oh um... *squee* lucky guess?"
Spike was reasonably suspicious, but let it slide for now. He and Fluttershy chatted as Twilight trotted home.
One walk back to the Golden Oak Library later...
Fluttershy realized that she was to help Pinkie Pie with a party for the duo she was talking to, so made up an excuse.
"Oh, um... I have to go back to my animals now... okay bye!" she zipped off.
She went to a secret entrance to the Golden Oak Library that Pinkie Pie was beckoning her over to. Twilight and Spike raised their eyebrows at that weird burst, but then went into the library and closed the door.
"So Spike... that was awkward."
Twilight turns on the lights after saying that.
"Surprise!"
"Here's your party like you asked!" Pinkie chirped.
"Well... I guess we could take a break."
They partied like it was 1000 years later from Nightmare Moon's banishment.
Transition to Town Hall.
Everyone arrived at the Town Hall to witness the sunrise, the five acquaintances and one friend all crowded around Twilight and Spike.
"Ooooo! Twilight! Are you this excited, since I sure am!" Pinkie nudged Twilight with a hoof.
Twilight gave a closed-eyed smile.
"Of course Pinkie Pie," she calmly responded.
"Fillies and Gentlecolts... magic of sunrise... longest day of the year... INTRODUCING, PRINCESS CELESTIA!"
The curtains opened and no one was there. A dark violet/blue mist rose and collected at where Celestia was supposed to be. It formed into the shape of an alicorn. Surprisingly, no one fainted or reacted. A small awkward silence ensued before the alicorn spoke up.
"Oh, my beloved subjects, it's been so long, I think hardly any of you remember me." Nightmare Moon spoke.
"Yeah, you're Nightmare Moon," Twilight nonchalantly spoke.
"Well, someone who remember's me, I'm sure you know what I am here to do."
"Yep."
"Remember this day little ponies, for it was your last. From this moment forth, the night shall last FOREVER!"
The sound of crickets chirping could be heard. Twilight was bored. She held Spike and rolled her eyes at this cheesy situation. Spike, her five acquaintances and one friend also shared her sentiment. She noticed the five mares and one filly who were surrounding her and Spike. She could smell the "Main Character" trait wafting in the air.
"You know girls, if you are that interested in being around me, I think it'd be nice that you help me with fixing this problem."
There was a collective squee from said ponies. All eight of them went to the Golden Oak Library. Twilight explained the situation.
"So, we need to find the Elements of Harmony. These are key to stopping Nightmare Moon who has returned after a now 1000 year banishing. The problem is I don't even know what these are!"
"Here ya go Twilight! A Reference Guide to the Elements of Harmony," Pinkie pulled out the correct book from the bookshelf and handed it over.
"Pinkie where did you find this?" Twilight replied surprised.
"The story must go on~" Pinkie smiled.
Twilight gave a unimpressed look at the camera, then started reading from the book.
"There are six Elements, but only five are known: Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty and Loyalty."
Obvious pan across the five other mares in the room.
"The last known location of the Elements is the Castle of the Two Sisters in what is now the Everfree Forest... Hey! Would you look at that? A nice detailed map of the Everfree Forest! At least we won't have to be wandering around aimlessly," Twilight glared at the camera again.
"Well, what are we waiting for? We have a daytime to bring back!" Pinkie Pie jumped up and exclaimed.
Pinkie Pie attempted to dash out of the library, but Twilight used her magic again to hold her back.
"Hey! What gives, Twilight?" Pinkie pouted for being magically grabbed by her for the second time.
"This gives," Twilight motioned her gaze to Apple Bloom who had puppy dog eyes, "we have to take this filly home safely."
Pinkie Pie squee'd. They took the adorable filly home to Sweet Apple Acres. The remaining seven all gave affirmative nods and departed for the Everfree Forest.
Transition to the Everfree Forest.
Following the map, the septet were able to skip going over a dangerous cliffside which would have been used had they gone with Twilight's knowledge rather than the book. They were now deep into the forest.
"Ugh, my eyes need a rest from this icky muck..." Rarity complained.
"That ancient ruin could be in front of our face and we wouldn't even know it!" Twilight exclaimed.
There was then a collective scream from Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Spike. They were not happy to see these scary faces all around them. Pinkie Pie interestingly was not laughing at the faces. Since Spike was nearby, she equipped Spike and pulled his tail causing the dragon to go into flamethrower mode. She turned to Twilight who was armed and ready with her magic. The Unicorn and party pony gave a firm nod to each other and started dousing the scary faces with fire and/or magic. The remaining four ponies all shot glances at each other and opted not to intervene in the crazy duo's antics. The two ponies finished their scary face removing and gave each other genuine smiles.
"That was fun wasn't it Pinkie Pie?" Twilight shot a wink at Pinkie Pie.
"Mmhmm~" Pinkie returned the wink.
Transition to a raging river.
The septet approached the raging river caused by a Sea Serpent who had one side of his mustache cut off. Rarity would not have any of this.
"It is a tragedy indeed Mr. Sea Serpent! We can't let you have this fashionable tragedy any longer!" Rarity exclaimed, "Spike, cut off my tail."
"Isn't that a bit... sensitive? There is a reason your tail covers your..."
"Just do it Spike!!!"
Spike, flustered, complied. He got a claw out and sliced Rarity's tail short. Rarity fixed up the Sea Serpent's mustache using her tail hairs. He thanked them then made a bridge across the river out of his body, appreciative of the generosity shown. As they continued trotting in the forest, Twilight was perturbed at Rarity's short tail since reasons.
"Rarity, I just happen to know a spell to regrow that tail of yours." Twilight spoke.
"Oh darling, would you be so kind as to use it on me? Spike seems flustered."
Twilight used the spell and Rarity's tail was good in no time.
Transition to just outside the Castle of the Two Sisters.
"There it is! The ruins that hold the Elements of Harmony! Now we just... cross this... bridge?" Twilight questioned, "How do we get across this?"
"Duh~" Rainbow Dash pointed out Fluttershy and her own wings.
They went down, grabbed the rope of the fallen bridge, and flew to the other side to tie it. At that moment, the Shadowbolts appeared and clouded up the scene so the rest of them couldn't see. The Pegasi duo wouldn't have any of it. The hostility shown was enough to make them go into fight mode. Simply put, the Shadowbolts were beaten to a pulp by the two of them. They ran off while they tied the other end of the bridge to the posts. They then flew back and gave each other a hoof bump.
"All fixed!" Rainbow Dash reaffirmed.
They trotted into the ruins and eventually up a fifteen story tower where they found five of the Elements.
"Alright. Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, bring them down."
They did so.
"1, 2, 3, 4... 5? Where is the last one?" Rainbow Dash questioned.
"Apparently, a spark is supposed to reveal the last Element," Twilight answered matter-of-factly.
Nightmare Moon suddenly appeared in the middle of the Elements.
"You think you can beat me?" She taunted.
"I don't think so, I know so. Just try destroy the Elements," Twilight mocked.
Nightmare Moon stomped which caused the Elements to shatter.
"Say farewell to the daylight, the night shall last forever!!!" Nightmare Moon triumphantly exclaimed, thinking that she had won.
"Bruh, you fail. The Elements are right over here," Twilight pointed out the five of her now friends.
"Applejack is the Element of Honesty; Fluttershy is the Element of Kindness; Pinkie Pie is the Element of Laughter; Rarity is the Element of Generosity; Lastly, Rainbow Dash is the Element of Loyalty."
The shards of the Elements all circled their respective character.
"The spark of friendship creates the final Element! Magic!"
The last Element appeared and then the Mane 6 proceeded to Rainbow Blast Nightmare Moon. When everything settled down, Twilight's friends all realized they had a necklace that each looks like their cutie mark while Twilight herself had a crown with her cutie mark on it. Nightmare Moon was no more than a blue alicorn. They didn't have much time as the tower was destabilized from the stomp earlier and started collapsing. Twilight acted fast, summoned up all her magic to grab all of them, then jumped out of a hole in the tower dragging everypony along. She realized her recklessness, and took action to fix it. She reached out and grabbed a whole bunch of leaves from trees nearby then piled it all below the eight of them. The landing was nice and soft.
"Oooo! I bet in some other boring universe this didn't happen!" Pinkie Pie spoke with excitement.
There was some initial confusion from that statement. After they dusted off, Twilight spoke up.
"Thank you girls, I'm very sure we do represent the Elements of Harmony."
"Indeed you do," Princess Celestia approached.
"Princess Celestia!" all of the seven exclaimed and bowed down.
"Twilight Sparkle, my faithful student, I knew you could do it."
"But, you told me you got it," Twilight spoke.
"I did. I sent you to Ponyville. But now for more serious matters. Princess Luna!" Princess Celestia turned to Luna.
Princess Luna gasped.
"It's been 1000 years since I have last seen you like this. It is time to put our differences aside. We were meant to rule together little sister," Celestia continued.
"Sister?!" All but Twilight and Spike (who read the book) exclaimed.
"Will you accept my friendship?"
"I'm so sorry! I missed you so much, big sister!" Luna gave her older sister a tight hug.
"I missed you too."
Pinkie Pie blew her nose, sobbed, then spoke, "You know what this calls for?"
Transition to Ponyville.
"A party!" Pinkie finished.
There was much celebrating as Princess Celestia and Princess Luna arrived on a chariot pulled by Pegasi guards. The septet were watching from the front of the crowd. Spike was next to Twilight as she gave him a loving nuzzle. Princess Luna got a flower lei from some Pegasus fillies and smiled at that. Princess Celestia then noticed Twilight was glum.
"Why so glum Twilight?" Celestia asked.
"I like it here in Ponyville. I feel like this might be my place," Twilight sadly replied.
"Spike, take a note please. I, Princess Celestia hereby decree that the Unicorn Twilight Sparkle shall continue her studies from her new home in Ponyville."
There was much cheering from her new friends.
"Oh thank you, Princess Celestia! I'll study harder than before!"
The cheering continued as the ponies partied. Just after noon, when all the partying finished, the purple duo was finally able to settle down into their new home in the Golden Oak Library.
"Spike, that was fun wasn't it? Getting to take a look at the Everfree Forest and get a move on to Ponyville, I'd say that your guess of us going on a big adventure was right."
"Mmhmm. I must say though, a lot of these events were convenient. You reading a book about the Elements of Harmony right when Nightmare Moon returns, being put in the Golden Oak Library, meeting five ponies who are now the Element bearers. Too convenient don't you think?"
"I understand what you're saying... Wait, hold on a second... Speaking about the Elements of Harmony, didn't Princess Celestia use the Elements of Harmony to banish Nightmare Moon? How come when the Princess used it, the result was banishing? Shouldn't have the friendship of a sister be enough to bring Princess Luna back? Why was it us that brought her back?"
"Whoa whoa whoa Twilight! Now is not the time to be deeply pondering the Season 1 Premiere! There will be many more Episodes to deeply interpret in the future. For now, let's get to the end of this Episode then we can discuss this... unless some other author wants to type up a story about this?" Spike winked at the camera.
"Agreed."
As they were doing some house cleaning, Twilight remembered to pen a letter to Moon Dancer, the Unicorn whose get together she was unabled to attend, but was on very good terms with ever since fillyhood:
"Dear Moon Dancer, we deeply apologize for being unable to attend your get together. From the recent extended night, we know you understand. Apparently, Nightmare Moon is a real story. For some reason Princess Celestia thought it would be a good idea to send us to Ponyville. It worked out: Twilight caught up with an old friend, made new friends along the way, and of course fixed the problem of eternal night. Can you believe that Princess Luna is back? But we digress, we should still make it up to you. You're our best friend after all. So! Enclosed in this letter is the key to Twilight's tower study room in Canterlot. Yes! Twilight is giving you her house. You deserve the best after all. Where are we living? We're in the Golden Oak Library in Ponyville. It's an hollowed out tree, quite impressed with the architecture. You should visit sometime~ We would like your company. Well, thank you for understanding and we look forward to crossing paths again~ Lots of Love, Twilight Sparkle and Spike."
Spike sent the letter on its way.
Transition to Moon Dancer's home in Canterlot.
Moon Dancer was a bit down from Twilight not showing up to her get together. It was unlike Twilight to forget about her. It was now that the letter Twilight and Spike wrote materialized in front of her. As she read it, she felt so much better that Twilight didn't just ignore her for no particular reason. She was intrigued as she read over Princess Luna's return. She continued reading until she read over that she was being given Twilight's old home. There was a moment of double take. She made sure she wasn't seeing things. The key appeared right into her magical grasp.
The internal squealing intensified to the point it was audible. In the time for the sun to go from afternoon to sunset: she packed up everything in her home, sold her house, and moved over to her new place. She had never been happier in her life. Being raised in the lower classes, being given one of the high class houses is something she appreciated. In her content nature, she made sure to thank Twilight by sending a "thank you" note with all the bits she made from the selling of her old home. She knew it would never really make up for the fact that she has been given a million bit property, but she knew that Twilight knows an appreciative mare by appearance.
After sending the letter, she had her dinner and went to bed with a smile on her face.
Transition back to Golden Oak Library.
It was finally time for the thing Twilight was looking most forward to. She and Spike were in the bedroom.
"Spike~ It's time for the cuddles!"
Twilight was patting the space next to her on the bed. Spike had no objections to that. He jumped into Twilight's embrace. The duo then dozed off to sleep, the grand adventure having begun.
Zoom out of sleeping duo.
