0:00.
Sparkles of light sprinkled down from above, shining like distant stars.
The Orion, a modified Man-Of-War ship with propellers instead of sails, flew into the lights, fading away as it did.
0:30.
Soarin’ flew as fast as he could, trying to beat racers to a finish line. One Pegasus caught up to him but he picked up speed and crossed it first. From the sidelines, his mother Rainbow Dash, his father Storm Shadow, and his sisters Eris and Eris Shine cheered. While still flapping his wings, he stood up and took a bow.
‘Soarin’ would go on to be the youngest member to join the Wonderbolts, surpassing even Rainbow Dash when it came to speed. He later went on to become the youngest captain. Upon reaching his new stature, he asked Peppy to marry him. She said yes.’
Peppy bucked a apple tree, making it drop it’s entire contents onto the ground. Applejack cheered at how strong her daughter had gotten. Zilver’s Light cheered as well as he moved a wagon over. The wagon hit a rock and rolled down into a ravine. It hit a rock and turned into kindling. Applejack and Peppy both face-palmed as Zilver nervously chuckled.
‘Peppy would go on to open up a shop specifically for Hearth’s Warming Eve, spreading her love and joy for it everywhere. She would open up shops in every city on the planet. In her downtime, she helped out her mother and father at the family farm. When Soarin’ Cloud asked her to marry him, she instantly said yes. They currently live in Ponyville with their daughter, who they named Apple Pie.’
Electronic Symphony rocked the base at the night club, causing pounding pulses to echo though it.
‘Sym’s unique take on the dub-step would become legendary in Ponyville and Canterlot, making his Mom Vinyl proud, but making his Mommy Octavia cover her ears when it got to loud. He and Golden Day had a quiet relationship, until they revealed it to their parents when she got pregnant 5 years later.’
Golden Day wiped her brow, having helped her mother Fluttershy, who had gotten big in her pregnancy, help a flock of geese who’s wings were wounded reach a pond for them to rest. She sat down on a log and closed her eyes.
‘Golden Day would open up one of the most successful day-care centers in Ponyville, which also acted double as a orphanage for wayward colts and fillies. She and Sym had a secret relationship hidden from their parents until she got pregnant 5 years later. She married Sym not long after that. Their son, Golden Base, wants to grow up just like his pop.’
Pound and Pumpkin took a step back and looked at their new shop. It read ‘Pound’s and Pumpkins’ tasty treats’. satisfied with the title, they both went in and went to work baking cakes, pies, cupcakes, and other yummy goodness’s.
‘Pound revealed his secret feelings to Erys the same time she did, catching him completely off guard. His and Pumpkin’s shop took off, overselling their parents and effectively buying them out. Which wasn’t what they wanted. But they hired them and made them heads of the Ponyville branch. Pound married Erys 2 years later’
‘when their parents took over the shop, Pumpkin went off the open up a second shop in the Crystal Empire. There, she reunited with Eris Shine and the two began a relationship. They married 4 years later.’
Erys lazily sat back on a tree, reading a book. Having no more headaches was a blessing she was happy to be with.
‘Erys confessed her feelings to Pound the same time he did, which surprised her. The two of them married 2 years later. When the time came for her to take the throne and become a ruler on Equestria, she accepted with her husband Pound and their daughter Solus by her side.’
Woona made silly faces to a bunch of foals, who laughed at her performance. She laughed with them, falling to the ground, laughing her buns off.
‘Woona went on to become a ruler of Equestria with Erys, when their mothers decided it was time for a new perspective of rulers to lead. That didn’t stop Woona from having fun, though. She would always go out and entertain the foals, making her a loveable princess. When she met up with Cotton 5 years later, the 2 hit it off and fell in love.’
Cotton put her own special mix of brownies into the over and hopped off to help her mom make some more.
‘Cotton and her parents went on to become the owners of the Canterlot branch of Pound’s and Pumpkin’s sweet shop. It wasn’t as successful as the original shop but they’re doing fine. She met up with Woona 5 years later and the 2 fell in love, seeing that they were as hyper as the other and they loved making kids laugh. Their own children would go on to be the same level of hyperness.’
Eris Shine flew though the building of the Crystal Empire, passing roses to everyone she met, who paid a bit in return.
‘upon graduation, Eris Shine moved to the Crystal Empire to sell flowers to the locals. Her flowershop became a instant success. She met up with Pumpkin 4 years later when she came to open the Crystal Empire branch of the sweet shop. They fell in love and married.’
Filigree slept soundly under a tree, reminiscing about the times she and her friends spent together.
‘Filigree would go on to become a singer, having been discovered by her Aunt Sweetie Belle, who heard her by accident. She would later become Sweetie Belle’s protégée, becoming as famous as her. When Season found her 10 years later, he surprised her with a kiss.’
Season’s Edge helped Carrot Top and Caramel toil the fields outside of town, a job he found tasking.
‘Season did nothing extraordinary with his life, mostly helping the local farmers raise the crops. During that time, his feelings for Filigree swelled to the point the couldn’t contain it any longer. He set out to find her, which he did in Manehatten. He surprised her with a kiss. The two have been together ever since.’
Windancer bucked a cloud, causing it to spill it’s water onto the farm belong, accidentally getting Season wet. He yelled up at her but she quickly took off before he could do anything stupid.
‘Following her Aunt Daring’s footsteps, she left to help her in her archeology digs. When she retired, Windancer took on the business, much to Derpy‘s and eTu`nes dismay. When she arrived in Canterlot 5 years later, she surprised Marian with a beautiful broach, which she had in place of a ring for a engagement ring.’
Marian dazzled the crowd with spinning firework pinwheels and magic whips galore.
‘while she was Woona’s sister, she wasn’t technically a princess of Equestria. It didn’t matter to her none. Marian’s joy was making people smile so, following her mother’s Trixie’s footsteps, she went onto become a traveling showgirl. She had a long-distance relationship with Windancer, who was always gone on her digs. When they met back up in Canterlot, Windancer proposed, using a brooch instead of a ring. Marian didn’t care. She said yes regardless.’
Sweet Song sang a beautiful song for the arrivals at Sym’s night club.
‘while she wasn’t as famous as Sweetie Belle or Filigree, Sweet Song was still well-known in Ponyville and Canterlot for her angelic voice. When she showed Chaos Gun to her mother’s Lyra and Bonbon, they were… less then thrilled. But when they saw how happy she was with him, they gave in and gave them her blessings. The two married 3 years later.’
Chaos Gun flew though the skies above Ponyville, pulling aerial loops and other dazzling moves.
‘as he was a artificial pony, Chaos didn’t know what to do in his downtime. He set out and got a job as part of the Canterlot guard and, though Glade’s good graces, rose high in the ranks. He and Sweet Song married 3 years later and had 10 kids though 7 pregnancies. Inhuman libido, that’s got to be it.’
Goldie groaned, hitting her head on her desk in school. Damn all this math; it’s infuriating.
‘as the years rolled by, Goldie quickly became mature and also something of a role model for her younger brother Iris. Upon reaching adulthood, she, ironically, became one of Equestria’s top scientists. She effectively found a to travel to the stars, but that wouldn’t be realized for another 100 years. She married her High School sweetheart just out of High School and is the proud mother of a little filly who she named after her sister, Starlight.’
Fire Ruby jumped down from above, scaring a little field mouse. She fell over in laughter as Fluttershy and Mirror’s Edge gave her a mean snare.
‘Fire Ruby would go on to become a veterinarian, trained under Fluttershy. Upon leaving High School, she moved to Manehatten 2 years later and opened up a vet. Not long after that, she met back up with Eris.’
Eris snapped her fingers, causing a piranha to appear in front of a squad of guards. As ‘fearless’ as they are, they turned and ran . Eris laughed and gave Goldie and Fire Ruby high-fives.
‘being the 2nd Draconequus in existence in this day and age, trying to find something that fits your lifestyle is… pretty tough. But Eris was able to find it by opening up a moderately successful joke shop in Manehatten. Not long after that, she met up with Fire Ruby, who had just moved there to open a vet. And, wouldn’t you know it, Romance blossomed between them. And… let’s just say the Draconequus’ are slowly but surely coming back.’
Screw Loose sewed up a poor guard’s wound which he got from tripping into a spear. She slipped up and hit a nerve, causing him to yell in pain, much to his embarrassment.
‘Screw Loose would become a successful medic in the royal guard, as well as opening up a small clinic in Canterlot. When Glade brought her to her parents Cadence and Armor, they gave them their blessing. The 2 married and now rule over the Crystal Empire.’
Glade walked down the red carpet in the Canterlot Palace. He reached the end and bowed to a stern Celestia and Luna. Celestia used her magic to pin a medal onto his chest armor, which surprised him. He thought he was going to get scolded for failing in his original mission of bringing Starlight home. Guess not.
‘Glade Yggdrasill later became the youngest general in Equestrian history, surpassing even his father Shining Armor. When Cadence stepped down from the Crystal Empire throne, Glade assumed the responsibility of ruling over the country, with Screw Loose as his bride and his old squad being the captains of the empires guard.’
‘having officially retired from ruling the country, Celestia & Cosmos, Cadence & Armor, and Luna & Trixie are now sailing on a yacht in this worlds’ version of the tropics, happily enjoying their golden years.
‘Fluttershy gave birth to a daughter named Rosemary and Twilight, a son named Iris. The two met in school and it was love at first sight. The 2 married out of high-school.
‘Having reached their twilight years, the Mane 6 could now sit back and relax on the beaches of Feather Top, wondering who the new Elements of Harmony were going to be upon their deaths.’
‘having spent more then enough quality time with his old flame Tulip, Sombra’s body completely reformed and, upon seeing that he has indeed changed, Glade released him. He moved back to his old village, where he lived the rest of his days in peace. Thankfully, everyone who was mean to him as a colt felt sorry for what they did and accepted him back. Guess Starlight was right after all.’
5:52.
Bass sat under a tree in Baltimare, wondering what was happening in Ponyville and to Starlight right now.
He missed her so much, it was heartbreaking.
He didn’t have to wonder long.
The necklace he had given her landed on his stomach, waking him up from his nap. Wondering where it came from, he looked to see Starlight, now with a blank flank, standing not far from him with a smile.
Bass smiled widely, got up, and ran over to her. He reached and hugged her tight. Starlight hugged him back, then broke it a few seconds later.
She leaned in and whispered into his ear. He went wide-eyed by what she said. He asked if she was telling the truth and she nodded ‘yes’.
It took awhile for it to set in. once it did, Bass smiled wide yet again and hugged her again. He spun her around, laughing like a idiot. The two of them fell to the ground and lovingly looked into each other’s eyes.
They leaned in and kissed one another.
‘Starlight and Bass grew old together, happy to be with one another. Starlight found Baltimare life more to her liking then the slow life back in Ponyville. Plus, every day brought a new adventure when your living with orphans in a bell tower, stealing to live. She would later become a writer. Her first book, ’journey to the past’ which she based off her journey, was the world-wide best seller for a full year.
‘10 months later, 10 months after their exotic adventure together, Starlight and Bass became the proud parents to twins; a girl named Aurora, and a boy named Sombra.’
High in the skies above Equestria, in the middle of daytime, a ripple appeared in the sky. The ripple surged into one spot and opened wide into a pink, organic looking tunnel. Inside, one could make out the outline of a ship with propellers in place of sails.
