Epilogue

You were sitting on the front porch when you saw an orange blur shoot past you into the orchard. The blur quickly stopped at shot back towards you, barely managing to stop before colliding with your face.

"Hey dad!" the colt said happily as he landed shakily, still trying to get used to flying.

"Hey Caramel" you said as you patted him on the head. He was one of three children you have with Applejack, and was the only Pegasus. The oldest, Sweet Apple, was a Unicorn surprisingly, and was light pink with a white mane. According to Twilight she's is a Unicorn because of your magic ability, but you think it may just be because you have a Unicorn sister. The youngest, Candy Apple, was an Earth pony, and was constantly full of energy. She was a dark red colour like Big Mac, but had a chocolate mane. The Pegasus in front of you was the middle child, and the only colt.He was a light orange and had a dark brown mane.

"Can you show me how to fly again dad?" Caramel asked as he pulled you out of your chair.

"Okay fine, but remember, no stunts this time" you said, thinking back to the last time you tired to teach him how to fly. He was doing good, almost managing to catch up to you when he tried to do a barrel roll, causing him to loose control and crash into the Everfree forest. You took off with him following close behind you, and after getting fairly high in the sky you turned to him.

"Okay, first we're going to see how well you can turn while going full speed" you said as he got to the same height as you were at. He nodded in response and quickly started to circle you, becoming a blur. After a few minutes you pulled him to a stop, nearly getting dizzy due to the number of spins you had to do to stop him.

"Why'd you stop me?" he asked while crossing his forelegs. You simply pointed down to the ground, where Applejack was standing.

"Mom!" he shouted as he flew down to her full speed. Unluckily for him he wasn't very good at slowing down yet, let alone landing, so he crashed face first into the ground. Applejack quickly pulled him out an checked for any injuries, but couldn't find any. She shot you an angry look as you landed laughing, knowing that he was going to crash.

"Sorry, I couldn't catch him before he shot away" you said through the laughter, which only increased as he shook his head, his mane puffing into an afro. Applejack punched you in the shoulder before checking on Caramel again, making sure he was really okay.

"It's fine mom, I've crashed worse before" he said as she tried to rub dirt off his forehead. He pushed her away and made his way back to the house. You turned to Applejack to see her looking at him angrily.

"Calm down, he's just being a kid" you said as you patted her on the back, knowing that she couldn't stay mad at her son for long. She quickly cheered up and nuzzled your cheek, planting a kiss there before pulling away.

"Any news from Sweet?" she asked while giving you a worried look.

"Twilight said she passed the entrance exam, and since Twilight wants to take her on as a personal student, she gets to stay at home while she learns magic" you said, thinking back to the letter you received earlier that day from a cloud of red smoke.

"That's good!" Applejack said before she remembered what the entrance exam is, "Does that mean?"

"Eeyup" you said with a laugh, "We get to take care of three kids and a baby dragon now! Doesn't that sound like fun?!". Applejack gave you a quick kick to the ribs before smiling.

"Speaking of kids, where's Candy?" she asked, noticing that the youngest hadn't said hello to her yet.

"She ran off with Spectrum and Sapphire" you said calmly, knowing that the kids of Rainbow Dash and Rarity were nothing to fear.

"Oh, okay, was Red with them?" Applejack asked, thinking of Pinkie Pie's colt.

"No, but I think they went to go get her, I'm not too sure" you replied with a shrug, "Now let's go inside, I'm sure they'll be hungry when they get back". You led Applejack towards the house that you had built yourself, right on the spot where you had gotten married. It was Big Mac's idea, which was brought up after Applejack became pregnant with Caramel. There wasn't enough room in the farm house for another child, so he suggested building a house on the farm so Applejack could continue to work, but also allowing for you and her to have a place of your own. It took almost three years to get it finished, but it was worth it.

After getting inside Applejack made her way to the kitchen and you headed towards the living room, where Caramel was playing with his Wonderbolts toys. He quickly looked up at you and smiled before going to back to what he was doing. You looked to see what toys he was playing with and saw two very familiar looking Pegasi, Hot Shot and Rainbow Dash. Both had become Wonderbolts after you married Applejack, but Rainbow had to resign to take care of her kids, but many still think she was the best Wonderbolt in recent history, so they still made toys of her.

You sat down on the couch and looked at the pictures on the walls. One was from the wedding, and the others were family pictures, one taken every year on the anniversary of the wedding. You then looked at the table beside you, where Applejack's hat sat. After the wedding Applejack had given it to you, saying that the patriarch of the next Apple family should wear it, but you've only worn it on special occasions, like the pictures and at your friends' weddings. It was amazing to think that in such a short time you had met the mare of your dreams, and have had three children with her already.

There was a knock on the door, and when you went to open it you heard voices from the other side.

"Come on Spectrum, just do it already!" Sapphire said, trying to get him to do something. You quickly went upstairs and flew out an open window so you could see what was going on with out them knowing, and you got close enough to hear what they were saying.

"But what if her dad doesn't like me?" Spectrum asked while pointing at Candy.

"I'm sure he'll be fine, he's really easy going" Candy said while moving closer to Spectrum.

"But..." he said, only to be cut off by Candy, who had kissed him. You felt anger rising in your chest, but you quickly pushed it away, knowing that Candy was old enough to kiss a colt, and honestly, you were glad it was him. Knowing that they hadn't seen you yet you decided to sneak up behind them to scare them. As you crawled across the ground you could hear Spectrum mumbling.

"But, what if he? Or if your mom?" he mumbled, not making any sense and eventually he started to rambled nonsense. At that moment you popped up behind him, a very serious look on your face, causing Candy and Sapphire to let out a tiny scream.

"Behind you!" Candy shouted, waving a hoof at you. Spectrum slowly turned around, and jumped back when he saw the look on your face. After you were happy with how terrified he was you smiled, causing him to change from scared, to confused.

"Candy was right, I don't mind" you said, opening the door to the house.

"You don't mind what?" Spectrum asked shakily.

"If you date her" you said, laughing as you walked inside, leaving him in confusion. It took a few moments before he realized what you said, causing him to immediately pull Candy into a hug, nearly crushing her in the process. The two of them danced around happily.

It's seems Apples have a thing for Pegasi, you thought with a laugh before heading into the kitchen to tell Applejack the good news.

Author's Notes

That brings this story to a close. This was a story I had been thinking about for a while, and once I finished the TwiDash I thought it was time to start writing it. This story is only the first in a series, the next one covering Hot Shot and Rainbow Dash. This Epilogue is meant to give a small hint as to what the outcome the other stories will be.

I hope everyone liked this story, and hopefully you'll stay tuned for the others!
