The Tale I Dimly Stow
Chapter 2: Epilogue
Previous Chapter Next Chapter“Hey Rainbow Dash!”
“Hmm? Oh hey Twilight! What are you doing up so early?” I yawned, stretching my wings as I wake from my cloud nap.
“I just got a letter from Princess Celestia! She says you’re needed in Canterlot”
What does she want? We hadn’t spoken to each other since I’ve came back to Equestria nearly three years ago. I forgive her though, how couldn’t I? Here is where I belong. And yet...
“Rainbow?” Twilight calls out again. “you zoned out”
I did?
“Yeah yeah, I’ll go”.
I hopped up from my cloud, and flared my wings into the wind.
And off I went. Flying is so different here. The pegasi controlled weather makes it too... boring. I miss fighting with unpredictable thermals, sudden updrafts, storms that come and go without warning. But the predictability does make it easier to-
I arrive in Canterlot, stepping back into the castle for the first time for years. I stop at the threshold, suddenly overcome with emotion. Can I really go face her? The choice was taken away from me when the door opened.
“Hello Rainbow Dash” Celestia’s elegant voice rang out.
“Princess” I tonelessly managed.
“Tell me Rainbow. If you could go back to Earth, would you?” She said, her tone unidentifiable
I had thought about it. but as the days passed, I lost hope. A year there was only a day here. Even if I could, it’s been long enough for the world to be unrecognizable.
“No; what’s the point? He’s been dead for centuries.” I said, defeated, trying my hardest not to tear up. Did she bring me here just to reopen old wounds? No, that’s not her style. I know she cares about every one of her subjects, but at that moment, I could only feel pain and anger.
“I wouldn’t be so sure Miss Dash, in fact, there’s someone I want you to meet.”
Now I was confused. What does she mean? Did some egghead unicorn make a portal spell? Where the universes merging because of some accident? Did-
“So Celestia, are you going to introduce us or do you enjoy keeping people waiting?”
I froze. I knew that voice. It couldn’t be.
“D-d-daddy?”
The End
A/N: In case you haven't realized, this is an unofficial sequel to My Little Dashie. Some lines were taken verbatim from ROBCakeran53's story, put into a new context. Funfact: The title is an anagram for My Little Dashie Two.
As my first published story, please feel free to comment on my formatting and grammar and tenses and whatever...
Verily!
Sir Nyan of Canterlot
Update 11/23/2012: I will continue the story, starting from the end of My Little Dashie (my interpretation), if there's enough interest. Thanks for reading!
A New Beginning
"You know, I can't even believe this is even happening right now."
"The 'me being around the same age as Celestia' or 'me being here' with you?"
"Everything! You have got to tell me absolutely everything! Not only are you a kickass dad, but also you've been saving planets, fighting space pirates, and being totally awesome!?"
"Hehe. Thanks kiddo, you make this old man feel young again. Now it all started when..."
To be continued...
Author's Notes:
So I'm going to be starting a new fic about the main character man. What is his name anyways? So yeah, expect epic space-opera star-trekish post-scarcity futurism adventures. I'm gonna need to do some astronomy research.
