Back in ponyville Spike urgently waited for his brothers return. The sun was back which meant everything was fine,or so he hoped. He didn't even send the latter his brother Dusk told him,to send to Cantorlot. But Spike felt he had to be certain if his brother was going to come back,even if meant he had to wait until sunset. Both Apple Bloom and Sweetie Bell were anxiously waited with him outside hopping to see their sisters safe and sound. Sootalooo was there with them though she had no siblings to speak of,but she shared a sisterly bond with Rainbow Dash. And seeing her would again would make her happy as well. As they waited long. They began to lose hope and Big Mac and granny came but before either of the two said anything. Apple Blooms brother pointed his finger in a direction where eight fingers were walking towards them and the town. The citizens also took notice of the figures and their faces and were in shock when they saw princess Celestia leading them. But it was the ones behind her that got spike and three girls with him that got them excited. Rainbow! Sootaloo shouted. As she ran towards the older girl she admired. How you doing kid. Dash said. Petting her on the head. Sweetie Bell and Apple Bloom were happy to see their older sisters as they held them up. They also notice the necklaces they wore. As for spike he stood happy and confused When he saw Dusk Shine standing in front with his new armor clothing and his new wings and crown. He notice he now had a sword with him even though his magical staff was in his left hand. He smiled at him. Something even Spike rarely saw him do. But Spike knew in his heart it was his brother. He jumped as Dusk grabbed him. Spike hugged his adopted brother and said. I thought you died. While I did technically die that's why I have the armor and wings. Dusk told him. But I'm back. After the hug Spike saw a mysterious woman. She looked almost like Nightmare Moon but she wore no helmet or armor and dress she wore down to her knees was a mix of black of and dark blue. Who's that? Spike pointed. Oh that's Princess Luna. Dusk answered. She was Nightmare Moon but the curse was lifted thanks to me and the girls when we used the Elements of Harmony to return her to normal. And.. He added she's Princess Celestia younger sister. Hearing this Spikes eyes widen. What?! He said shocked. Oh Spike it's so good to see you. Said Fluttershy. I bet your happy to see your older brother alive though he sorted died. That's what he said to me. As they continued to walk. Speaking to the Mayor. Celestia held a wide conference in Ponyvilles town hall. Attention citizens of Ponyville. Celestia spoke. I know it's late for the summer sun celebration,but I want today not be a remembrance of the defeat of Nightmare Moon. But the remembrance of the return of my younger sister Princess Luna. Who was cursed to be Night are moon. Luna gave small smile and waved as the crowd cheered. Also. Celestia continued. Today also marks that my top student no longer just my protégé but also a prince in his own right Dusk Shine of Canterlot. As the crowd cheered as he gave an awkward smile while waving his hand. Now. Celestia said. Let us celebrate. During the celebration Rainbow,Rarity, Apple Jack,Fluttershy,and Pinky Pie. Celebrated their success after defeating Nightmare Moon by partying and dancing. Despite repeated attempts to join them especially Rarity. Dusk respectfully declined after being through so much. So what's on your mind Dusk? Celestia said to him After seeing a concerning look on his face. Well he said to her. It's just… I wanna stay here in Ponyville. This was very surprising to the ruler of Equstra as she asked why? Because I think I've discovered something. Something I can study. He looked at the girls dancing. Hmmmm very well. Celestia told him. You can stay here and report your findings to me. Thank you. Dusk said. Just than Luna came to him and said. Dusk may I speak with you uhhh privately? Sure. He told her. In private Luna said to Dusk. I just wanna say to you that I'm sorry for what happen earlier. From the fighting and my dark self trying to have its ways with you. With a smile Dusk alright your back to normal and your back with sister to rule Equstra uhhh.. Trying think of something to say. So..Luna asked him. Your staying here? Yes. Dusk. answered. Why? He asked her. Oh nothing just curious. Before The newly crowned prince of Equstra knew it. Luna gave him anther unexpected. kissed making him blush. As she said. If there's anything you need Prince Dusk Shine.I'll be happy to help you. After that she and Dusk went back to where the party was. Where again the girls begged them to join them to dance at which they finally agreed to do. Spike was having a very good time dancing especially with Sweetie Bell. After the celebration was over Apple Jack heard Dusk calling her. What's up. She said. Oh I just wanted to apologize to you for what happened Yesterday. Huh? She said confused. You know when I pointed my magical staff and theating to blast you with it and intentionally hitting you with that small tree branch back in the forest. Oh thats it's alight i guess had that comin. She patted his shoulder. But I should tell you when you kiss my hand I hand flash back of man. A man who didn't know when to quit no matter how many times I rejected him. It wasn't until I got physical with him till he got the message. I'm sorry to hear that. Dusk said. Hey what's going on? Said Rainbow. Nothing Dusk said to her. Well just doing some necessary apologizing. Said. A.J. Yeah I'm sorry for slamming our into the ground multiple times yesterday. Dusk said to Rainbow. Ah it's alright egg head. She replied I'm just happy we want on that amazing adventure,even though Pinkie Pie took most of the fun by killing all those Shadow zombies. Did someone mentioned me? Said Pinkie. Darling what are you doing with these girls? Said Rarity. Oh I was. He tried explained Before Fluttershy came and said Oh Dusk. She said. I was wondering are you going to go back to Canterlot? Well..He answered to her and the rest of girls. I spoke to princess Celestina and… And what? Said Rainbow. Ive choosen to stay here in Ponyville. After a few moments of silence Rarity said with a smile. Great. she hugged him. Than maybe I can get you to try on some of my latest fashions. Well maybe he can do that after I teach him how to fly with his new wings. Said Dash. Oh we're gonna have so much fun. Said Pinkie. Who gave him a tight hug. After releasing him Dusk said Now now it's getting late I'll see you all tomorrow. Well good night sugar cube. Said Apple Jack. Happy to here that your staying. Hearing A.J. call him sugar cube made Dusk Blush a little before he left. But before he could go any further he heard Fluttershy call him. Wait Dusk. he turned around. Facing her she said. Thank you for choosing to stay. Your welcome. He said with a smile. After that all of them went to their homes Little did Dusk and the girls know they were being watched by Celestia, who was thinking up a prank to come up with. While walking back to the farm Apple Jack heard her little sister say…So did say good night to your boyfriend? Boyfriend? A.J said to Apple Bloom. Knowing she was hinting at. Dusk ain't my boyfriend. Uh huh Apple Bloom smiled doubtfully. While making sure no one was watching her. Apple Jack had taken a look at the top of her right hand,and remembered when Dusk kissed it before continuing on her way. That imp boy ain't to bad. Sweetie bell said to her sister. Rarity was happy that her sister found someone she was found of,but she wondered how she could seduce Dusk shine to her. Thinking and than remembering how Dusk shine looked at her after she and others came river. Maybe I could invite him to the spa in the hot tub. She did you guys fight any monsters while in the castle. Asked Scootlaoo. Hell yeah! Replied Rainbow Dash. So was it true that wizard guy saved you when Nighmare Moon knocked you out? Scootaloo Asked. A little embarrassed from that fight and from the question. Rainbow replied yeah,but.. She tried to say and wondered how she could repay Dusk other than teaching him how to fly. Perhaps inviting him private place above Ponyville would be more efficient she thought. Oh we're going to have so much fun. Pinkie said as she walked to sugar cube Conner. Though Pinkie didn't have the most well experience with Dusk. She was however great full for Dusk for being so heroic though she wonder how she could repay him for his efforts. Angel it's so good to see you. Fluttershy said as she picked up her little white rabbit as she finally returned home. Happy to be back with her animal friends Fluttershey couldn't stop thinking how Dusk was trying to protect her from a bear who trying to hug her,and how he step in to save Rainbow from Nightmare Moons magic. Perhaps she would invite him to her house one of these days and have some tea with him. She thought happily. Now walking with his assistant Spike said. Hey big bro. Yes? Dusk answered What time will we be leaving this town? Well Spike. He told him. We wont be leaving here for a while. Huh Spike said confused. Well..I Told princess Celestia if could stay here for a bit while I do researched on a new type magic. stay? And what magic you plan to study here? Friendship. Dusk answered. Friendship? Spike said confused. And By the way. Dusk said to him. I forgive you for telling Fluttershy about my secret. Who later told the other girls. Wait should told them? Spike said in horror. She promised me she wouldn't tell anybody. Guess she decided it was better to let everyone know. Dusk told him. So your not mad? Asked Spike. Well… let's just say because of recent events I no longer care who knows of it. As the two entered the wooden library which was now their new home in Ponyville. Home sweet home. Yes it is Spike. Dusk told him. Yes it is.
