Here's the epilogue for Born This Way. After this, you'll get the credits and then I'll put up the sequel. And by the time you're reading this, it's most likely already up. Here we just see how Arianna, Ratchet, and Clank have been doing since they left the Great Clock in Sigmund's care.

Your POV:

Now that you're home, living in a new apartment in Metropolis, life's…settled down. When you first got here, you crashed on the couch, completely mentally, emotionally, and especially physically exhausted. When you woke up, Ratchet said you were asleep for over a day. In your defense, you totally earned that little hibernation session; after all you've been through.

You've…had a bit of a hard time adjusting. You've only known super hero life, and not having to constantly move around has been weird for you. You put your armor away and you've taken up to wearing…pretty much whatever's around.

You've been fiddling with your music player, taking stupid pictures of your friends now that Clank's showed you how to work the camera. You deleted all of the pictures that were already on there. You've completely put that life behind you now. You ignore the guilt you feel when you think about the people you left. But…without your memories, what does it mean?

Every day is always the same. You wake up, get dressed, eat, then do whatever until lunch, then do whatever until dinner, and then go to bed. Only to wake up and do it all over again tomorrow. It's routine, repetitive, and unchanging. It's gotten really boring, even though the holo-games are cool.

You never leave without your picture of Alister and Kaden. You still miss Alister. He was the closest thing you ever had to a father, and you'll never forget him. When you're sleeping, you open it up and prop it on your dresser. You know he's watching you, wherever he is now. And hopefully, he's proud of you and happy.

You look at the picture you have of Ratchet on your dresser. Seeing his smiling face, even in a photograph, always makes you feel better-less alone. You know you'll never be alone as long as you have Ratchet by your side. He's always right there. You smile, and you get that happy, light-hearted feeling you get whenever you're near him or thinking of him.

You can't help but feel like you can fly.

You know you like him-you woke up morning, and it rocked you like a thunderbolt. You listened to a song about a crush by somebody named Mandy Moore. You slept on it, and when you woke up-you realized just how much you care about him.

You know everything that I'm afraid of,

You do everything I wish I did.

Everybody wants you,

Everybody loves you.

I know I should tell you how I feel.

I wish everyone will disappear.

Every time you call me,

I'm too scared to be me.

And I'm too shy to say…

I got a crush on you.

I hope you feel the way that I do.

I got a rush

When I'm with you.

I got a crush on you.

Now all you really need to do is tell him how you feel. But what if you mess your friendship with him? Your stomach goes into knots at the possibility.

Ratchet's POV:

Every time I see you,

I can see right through you,

Knowing I could never change your mind.

I look into your eyes for the last time,

I realize for the first time.

While everybody's around,

I'll take a moment

To let you know that I'm down.

Life's gone back to being almost completely normal-except for Arianna. You think she's having trouble adjusting, but she insists she's okay. It's great to have Clank back. You've been catching up, and hanging out. Arianna usually just smiles and watches you play holo-games together. When you're playing with her, Clank quietly reads a book. It's…nice. It's nice, normal, and peaceful. Except when Arianna gets too hyper, and then she's (literally) bouncing off the walls.

Every night when I close my eyes,

I see the ways that you've touched my life.

What you said to me late last night,

I'll remember for the rest of my life.

Don't know if I'll ever know why,

Or hear the sound when an angel cries,

But I want you to know,

I'll always be right here.

She really has made a difference in your life. Without her-you don't know what getting Clank back would've been like. Lonelier, quieter, and not as fun, you know that much. You think about her more and more, now with nothing else important to focus on, she's all your mind lets you think about.

She's always so happy…she's amazing. Loyal, smart, strong (emotionally and physically) and she always tries her hardest. She's always by your side, and you know she'd do anything for you…like you would for her.

You feel something nagging in the back of your mind. It's trying to tell you something. It's about Arianna.

Do you…like Arianna? Well, obviously you like her. But do you like her like that?

You think about what being in a…relationship with Arianna would be like. Arianna's not like all of the other girls.

You realize something.

You do like Arianna like that. You have for a while now-it was always there-always in the back of your mind, but you always ignored it. Now you know why you were always so protective over her, why you never wanted her to go off anywhere alone. Now, all of it makes sense. You wanted to keep her safe-she means so much to you.

Really, how could you not fall for her? She's everything you've ever wanted in a girl, and while you got a little more than you bargained for-she's crazy-she's still the only woman you're going to want for the rest of your life.

Now all you have to do is tell her how you feel-which is defiantly easier than done. You just don't want to mess up the friendship you have with her.

Your POV:

And…you've always been having nightmares recently. You just dream about Alister, and what he said to you at the Great Clock. You were supposed to be there with him…on his side…his words keep echoing in your head. You just smile and pretend everything's okay. But you…still can't blame yourself for his death. Sometimes, you wonder if you made the right choice-then you look at Ratchet, and you know you did.

Still…

You'll miss him everyday.
