The Final Cutie Mark Crusade

Epilogue

It’s been almost six months since I killed Rabil, and yet, his actions permeate throughout my own day, much less my own mind. It is almost some sort of twisted reminder, everyday I go to help reconstruct Ponyville, I know I am helping rebuild from what was destroyed by Rabil. I know that the only reason I have my cutie mark is because of Rabil. I still have nightmares about Rabil occasionally, but it makes me feel much better when I realize everything is relatively normal again, and that the stallion next to me feels almost the same. I know the only reason I know Phalanx, much less am married to him, is because of Rabil.

I actually, well at least legally, married Phalanx almost a week after I returned to Ponyville. What I mean by that is we both went and filled out the paperwork, neither of us felt that a wedding ceremony would be necessary, much less appropriate, though it may have been to others.

As for Scootaloo and Sweetie, they have both upheld their promise and written to me, and I’ve found out that Rainbow Dash also has joined the Wonderbolts, a dream come true for her, and a great thing for Scootaloo, because, as she worded it, “It’s awesome being able to fly with one of the best fliers in Equestria, on the best flying in Equestria!” Sweetie is performing with the Symphony, and I heard her mention a familiar name, Octavia, when she had first written. Apparently Octavia is in there as well, and it made me smile to see that others were returning to their lives.

As for everypony else, my father helped rebuild Sweet Apple Acres, along with Big Mac, Applejack, and I. No one knows what happened to Granny Smith, the last time anypony saw her was when I first got back to Ponyville after I had escaped Canterlot when Rabil murdered Celestia and Luna.

Twilight apparently is teaching at the University of Canterlot, a new school that was funded by the Equestrian Parliament, as one of their first acts after they had drafted a constitution. Spike apparently is helping her just as before, although this is coming from what Applejack has gotten from letters.

Pinkie Pie returned to Ponyville, and as soon as an equivalent to Sugarcube Corner was built, she immediately opened up a pastry business there. Well, not just pastries, but also party supplies/advice center there, when Phalanx first heard that, he asked me if I had just said party supplies/advice center, I had responded normally, as I was used to Pinkie Pie.

“Yeah, Ah did.” I had replied.

“Umm... Okay then.” He responded and he had walked away, shaking his head at the logic of it. I had barely suppressed a laugh then, because I knew it would only get more confusing for him until he just simply accepted what I call “Pinkie Logic”, which is simply “Pinkie Pie is just Pinkie Pie”.

Fluttershy has been helping with bringing the wildlife back to the burnt-down Everfree Forest, much less Ponyville, and she seems to enjoy it. Occasionally though, she will be a bit depressed, remembering her old animal friends who had been murdered by Rabil’s soldiers.

Rarity founded a clothing company called “Canterlot Design Company”, and she from what I have heard from Sweetie Belle, absolutely is in her own personal dreamland. Though Sweetie Belle also mentioned that Parliament had requested some items from there, she had said Rarity wouldn’t go into detail about exactly what they had requested.

The Doctor actually settled back into Ponyville, locking up his TARDIS, and vowed never to go into it again. Ditzy got her old job back as a mailmare, and she seems happy, especially since Pinkie’s business sells muffins. Apparently she’s a daily customer there, and I wouldn’t be surprised.

Diamond Tiara I think works for the Canterlot Design Company, though I’m not exactly sure in what role, as the details from Sweetie Belle are semi-guesswork on her sister’s company.

Babs, on the other hoof, is now in charge of the Equestrian Department of the Military, something she was surprised by, but gladly accepted. She actually wrote to me about that, and occasionally still writes, but it’s mainly just paperwork apparently, nothing exciting.

Well, I ought to get going, I’ve got a job helping rebuild the school tomorrow, and they sure as hay will want me there. Anyways, I’ve got to make sure I get up before Phalanx for once, it’s a little bit of a friendly competition, and I have got to show him that his guard instincts can be beat. Oh well, see ya around.
