It was been a month since Celestia declared that Stephan and the twins won't return back to their abusive father anymore, and it was 52 months (4 years and 4 months) since Chloe first arrived in Equestria, as well as it was also 40 months (3 years and 4 months) since Aylene became her beloved sister, and now they're happy to be with Stephan, and they're also very happy to know that he and the twins are going to stay with them, and once he and the twins all healed completely from their injuries and bruises given to them when their own father (Howard) last beaten them, the three centaurs decided to live in Ponyville near the Castle of Friendship to better ensure their evil father won't be able to get them back to himself without getting attacked and/or chased away by anypony. For now, Stephan and the twins are safe from harm, from abuse, and from their evil father.

One day, came a letter from Mount Aris came to the royal castle, and Shujaa picked it up and started reading it first, and once he finished reading it, he went back inside the royal castle to tell Celestia and Luna about the surprising news and also to show them what's written in the letter, and when Shujaa entered the throne room and showed and gave the letter to the Alicorn Princesses, they started to read it as well, and once they finished reading the letter, Celestia then said "It's from Mount Aris!", and then Luna asked her "Sister, what's wrong?", and then Celestia said "Queen Novo, the queen of the Hippogriffs wants to meet Kenai!", but then Shujaa asked "Why would she want to meet him?", and then Chloe and Aylene came behind him and moved past him and stopped in front of the princesses, and then Chloe said "I think we came clarify that for you!", and then Aylene added "Hippogriffs on Mount Aris heard about Kenai's redemption, especially after what he did when he bravely risked his own life to save Clownbeak, a young Hippogriff who befriended him, from the abusive elephant Terrence!", and then Chloe added "Kenai managed to save that Clownbeak by jumping up and biting Terrence, and when he let go, we saw that Kenai managed to bite and tear off a part of Terrence's left ear, which proved that Kenai would dare to protect innocent babies and children from that beast's evil trunk!".

When the princesses and Shujaa all heard what Chloe and Aylene both just said, all three of them gasped in shock before Celestia asked "Is that evil layer of fats (Terrence) still trying to abuse babies and children?", and Chloe answered and explained "Yes, Terrence surely still does these cruel and heartless things!", and then Aylene added "I'm afraid so too! Terrence was always willing to destroy young and innocent lives, but this time, Kenai taught him the lesson he needed by biting and tearing off a part of that mad and crazy elephant's left ear, and for a good measure!", but then Luna said as she growled in a bit of anger "Next time that elephant does such heartless acts to innocent babies and children like this, I'm going to revome away his tusks!", but then Shujaa said "But first, you all need to tranquilize him and put him down to sleep, and while he's too unconscious to keep his eyes open or too weak to fight back, you can remove at least one of his tusks, but I must warn you, princesses, that it's not an easy task to remove an elephant's tusks! Even if you will use your magic together, an elephant's tusk is very heavy, thick and strong, and it will take you more power than you'd actually expect to remove an elephant's tusks without even killing the elephant itself!", and then Chloe said "That's right! Shujaa has a point!".

Then, Aylene said "But let's talk about that huge gray beast later! Right now, we have to go to Fluttershy's cottage to tell her and Kenai to come with us to Mount Aris again, because all the Hippogriffs wants to meet him and hear from his mouth how and why did he decided to turn good like Shujaa in the first place!", but then Chloe said "Let's not forget the others too, and also take Stephan and the twins with us as well!", and then Shujaa said "I'll come with all of you too, because I too would want to hear how my brown oanda bear friend ended up turning good like I did long ago!", and then Celestia said "And you all shall go to Mount Aris!", and then Luna added "And have a wonderfully great celebration that you've never experienced before!", but then she quickly added "Well, since the great celebration to announce Shujaa's redemption to Equestria!", and then Shujaa cried "Let's go to Fluttershy's cottage and ask her and Kenai to come along!", and then Chloe said "Yes, and let's not forget Stephan and the others as well!", and so the three then went out of the royal castle to gather their friends and allies when they will come back with all of them, and so Chloe, Aylene and Shujaa went separate ways - Chloe went to Ponyville to bring Stephan and the twins, Aylene went to Fluttershy's cottage to bring her and Kenai (and Kayden and Tallulah), while Shujaa went to the Castle of friendship to bring Twilight and the others.

Then, after more than an hour since they left the royal castle, Chloe, Aylene and Shujaa finally returned with everyone else, but also with Aron, Linda and the triplets, who joined them all on their way back to the royal castle. With everyone entering the throne room together, Celestia and Luna then lit up their horns and used their magic together to teleport everyone and themselves to Mount Aris, to meet all the Hippogriffs whom are all waiting for them to come, but especially for Kenai so they can meet him again and see his face again in a whole new light, unlike in all these many years before, and soon enough, Kenai, Chloe, Aylene, Stephan, Shujaa and their friends will also come to meet face-to-face with the queen of the Hippogriffs - Queen Novo.

When everypony and every creature arrived at Mount Aris, the Hippogriffs all looked at them, and then one of them asked "Where's Kenai? The brown panda bear who once served for Gilad for so many years but is now on your side?", and then Clownbeak came out from behind the crowd of Hippogriffs and then he cried as he pointed with an eagle talon "I see him! He's with that yellow Pegasus mare! There in the back!", and this is when Kenai came forward and showed himself to all the Hippogriffs before he suddenly sighed and said "I'm sorry for all the troubles I caused you all in all these years before.", and just then, Silverstream's father, whose name is Sky Beak, approached Kenai and said to him "It's okay, Kenai. Now you're forgiven by all of us Hippogriffs after we all heard about your brave act you've done when you saved one of our kind from that big, mad and crazy elephant who likes to harass and torment innocent youngsters.", and then Kenai said to him "His name was Terrence, and by watching his abusive acts, I can say he's always willing to destroy little girls more than little boys, and I even saw he will attack and harass baby girls on sight. Despite being herbivorous like I am, Terrence is way more ferocious than I am.", and then Crystal Feather suddenly came out from behind the crowd of Hippogriffs and approached Kenai as well, and then she said to him "Thank you for saving my son before, Kenai. You're a good friend indeed.", before Shujaa interrupted and said "I would've done the same thing Kenai did, and it's because I too turned against Gilad and redeemed myself to the good side long ago!".

Then, Twilight came forward and said to Sky Beak "Hi, Sky Beak! It's so nice to meet you again! We came here to show you Kenai after we learned from Chloe, Aylene and Shujaa that Queen Novo and all of you here want to meet him!", and then Sky Beak said to her "Princess Twilight Sparkle, it is an honor to met you again and to listen to what you have to say about Kenai whom you brought here with you to show him to all of us Hippogriffs on Mount Aris!", and then a female voice called for the Hippogriffs to move aside, and when they did, Chloe, Aylene, Stephan and all the others saw a beautiful female Hippogriff approaching towards them, with a younger female in tow, as well as some male Hippogriffs, whom are their guards.

When these Hippogriffs approached close enough, they all stopped in front of the crowd of Hippogriffs which already met Kenai, and when Chloe, Aylene, Stephan and all the others saw the two majestic female Hippogriffs and their guards, Celestia, Luna and the mane seven (minus Starlight) knew who those two are - Queen Novo and her daughter, Princess Skystar. When Queen Novo saw Celestia and Luna, the three were all happy to meet each other again, since they haven't seen each other since they're very young, even before Luna was banished to the moon (when she turned into Nightmare Moon), and then Celestia said "Queen Novo!", and the majestic Hippogriff Queen said "Princess Celestia!", and then the two and Luna said to each other it was so nice for them to see each other again after so many moons (years), and then Queen Novo asked Celestia "Where is the brown panda bear I've heard about that was once evil for so many years before but is now good like all of us?", and then Celestia said "He's right behind us, Novo. I know you too are so excited to meet him after you heard about his redemption.", and then she moved away and then motioned to the Hippogriff queen with a forehoof at Kenai, and so Queen Novo saw the brown panda bear with the other Hippogriffs, before she started to approach towards him with her daughter, Princess Skystar, in tow.

When Kenai turned and saw Queen Novo and Princess Skystar approaching and coming towards him, the brown panda then tried to keep himself calm and not show any signs of fear, and once the two majestic Hippogriffs stopped in front of him, Queen Novo then said and asked "So you must be Kenai the brown panda who was once belonged to these evil humans but recently betrayed them and redeemed himself to the good side?", and Kenai took a deep breath before he said and asked "Yes, that's right, and who are you?", and then Queen Novo said "I'm Queen Novo, the queen of the Hippogriffs. It is an honor to meet you after what two of my subjects told me about you, and also about what recently happened to you.", but just then, Princess Skystar came towards Kenai and then she said "Oh my gosh! You're a panda! I've never seen a panda before! Anyway, we came up to the surface to meet you because you cannot go and meet us underwater in Seaquestria!", and when Kenai heard what the Hippogriff princess just said, he just stood still in confusion and blinked once before he asked "What's Seaquestria?", and then Queen Novo answered and explained "Seaquestria is the home for Seaponies, the other form of us Hippogriffs, to which we can transform. When we go back to Mount Aris, for an instance, we transform back to Hippogriffs to adapt to life on land, and we can turn back into Seaponies to adapt to life in the water if we want to come back to live in Seaquestria.".

When Kenai heard what the Hippogriff Queen said, he then said to her "That sounds pretty cool, and quite interesting to know.", and then Queen Novo said "Thank you.", before Princess Skystar said "We all prepared everything we needed for you to have fun here on Mount Aris!", and then she moved away to let Kenai see all the prepared stuff and fun games with some of the Hippogriffs trying them first to show Kenai that everything's okay to touch, to use or to have fun with, before she then added "Come check it out!", thus shocking Kenai when he saw all the attractions the Hippogriffs prepared for him and for everyone else so they can have fun, with the Hippogriffs here to join as well.

Then, Pinkie Pie popped out of nowhere and yelled happily "Let's have some lots of fun together!", and then everypony and every creature started to have fun with the Hippogriffs on Mount Aris. Later, after all the fun is over, Chloe, Aylene, Stephan, their friends and all the Hippogriffs gathered around to hear from Kenai's mouth about his life story, from his early life to his recent redemption, and Kenai told them how did he came to be Gilad's panda bear pet and obedient servant for years, before and after Shujaa first redeemed and reformed, but when he reached the part where he was recently banished by Gilad over his failed attempts to hunt and kill a wild boar when he, Gilad and his brothers, the other animals (and Tallulah and Kayden) went outside to hunt wild boars, the Hippogriffs all gasped in shock to know how cruel was Gilad to him like he was with Shujaa, before the two animals eventually betrayed him, and with tears of pain forming again in his eyes, Kenai said "The reason I first came here was to get away from Shining Armor when he didn't believed I've changed.", but then he quickly added "But if I haven't went all the way here to Mount Aris, you Hippogriffs would not be seeing me at all.", and then he finished and said "And in the end, Shining Armor apologized to me for threatening me for no reason, and I of course forgave him because he came with everyone else to save me, Crystal Feather and Clownbeak from that evil Terrence, before I bravely torn a part of that elephant's left ear to teach him a lesson not to harass, abuse or torment young and innocent lives anymore, but Terrence won't listen to reason, even not from a great or a powerful ruler, like Celestia, Luna, Cadance, Twilight, and of course Queen Novo herself as well. I just hope that one day, that elephant will get what he truly deserves, and that's all I have to say.".

When Kenai finished talking about both himself and also about his newest archenemy (Terrence), Chloe, Aylene, Stephan, their friends and all the Hippogriffs, including Queen Novo and Princess Skystar, clapped their hands, hooves and claws, respectively, much to Kenai's joy and happinesss to know that everyone do understand him, just like they all already understand his best friend who reformed before him (Shujaa). However, just then, the voice of the worst unimaginable human male whom Kenai and Shujaa both now hate for the most sounded off.

"YOU TOO, KENAI - ARE TRAITOR! AND I HAVE NO MORE USE IN YOU!" Gilad's angry voice yelled from right behind everypony and every creature, as well as from behind all the Hippogriffs, who then turned and saw what Kenai already saw first - they all saw Gilad and his two brothers, Black Heart and their animals, but they also saw an adult cream-colored zebra stallion (male) standing by Gilad's left side (in addition to Claire, Gilad's pure black female giraffe, who stood by Gilad's right side), and then Gilad yelled at Kenai and said "NOW I DON'T NEED YOU FILTHY AND UNGRATEFUL PANDA BEAR NO MORE! NOW THAT I FINALLY HAVE A NEW ANIMAL WHICH HELPS ME REPLACE YOU FOREVER!", and then Gilad let the cream-colored (albino) zebra stallion take a step forward to show his handsome looks and his colors which are cream and white instead of black and white, and then the albino zebra let out a loud and evil bray at Kenai, before Gilad yelled "I WANT YOU ALL TO MEET THE NEW ANIMAL WHO IS NOW THE REPLACEMENT FOR THAT PATHETIC KENAI! MEET SCAMPER, MY NEW AND RARE GOLDEN ZEBRA!", and when everyone, as well as all the Hipogriffs heard what Gilad said about having Scamper the golden zebra as Kenai's replacement, they all gasped in shock before Scamper let out another loud and evil bray at Kenai, who just stood there with his lower jaw dropped in shock to know that now he's been replaced too.

Then, Gilad yelled "WE'LL LEAVE YOU ALONE WITH SHUJAA THE TRAITOR, ALL YOUR NEW FRIENDS AND ALL THESE FILTHY HIPPOGRIFFS, FOR NOW! BUT REMEMBER MY WORDS, KENAI - FROM NOW ON, YOU'RE TOO NO LONGER PART OF OUR ANIMAL TEAM! WITH CLAIRE AND SCAMPER BY MY SIDES, I DON'T NEED YOU AND SHUJAA ANYMORE! GOODBYE FOR NOW, KENAI AND SHUJAA! YOU'RE NOTHING MORE THAN TWO TRAITORS TO ME AND TO MY FAMILY!", and then Gilad turned to his brothers, Pegasus pony friend and the other animals (which aren't Claire and Scamper) and then he called for them all "LET'S GO!", and the villains listened and started to follow Gilad and leave Kenai and Shujaa with Chloe, Aylene, Stephan, their friends and all the Hippogriffs, and once the villains were all gone, Kenai turned and looked down into his own forepaws with a saddened face, because now he can no longer return to Gilad either, and now that the evil human male have Scamper the golden zebra stallion by his side, now both Kenai and Shujaa were traitors to his evil side forever.

However, just then, Queen Novo approached him and when she stopped by his side, she then gently placed her eagle talons on his right shoulder and then she started to stroke at his shoulder and down to his back, before she said to him in a soft voice "It's okay, Kenai. There's no reason for you to be so sad about this. Now you have me and all of my subjects as your friends as well, and you don't need that monster Gilad and his brothers no more.", and when Kenai turned to look at her, he then hugged her around the neck with both of his forelegs and said "Thank you, Queen Novo. Thank you for telling me I'm welcome, like my friend, Shujaa, already is.", and when Celestia saw the touching moment between Queen Novo and Kenai, tears of joy started to form in the Alicorn princess' eyes, before her younger sister, Luna, came to her side and tried to comfort her so she can continue watching without crying.

With all the Hippogriffs already know Kenai has reformed and were now his friends, Kenai knew it's time for him to say goodbye to all the Hippogriffs, and then he said to all the Hippogriffs "Thank you all for becoming my new friends! Goodbye, Hippogriffs! I promise I will always come here when I have the time to do so, and from time to time! Thanks for everything good you've done for me! Goodbye for now!", and then all the Hippogriffs said to Kenai goodbye as well, and some of them even raised and waved their eagle talons for him for a goodbye as they watched Celestia and Luna using their magic together to teleport themselves and everyone else (Chloe, Aylene, Stephan and the others) with them back to royal castle's throne room, and once Celestia and Luna used their magic to teleport everyone alone with them, they're all gone from the Hippogriffs' eyesights, but then Queen Novo said to her subjects that she hopes that one day, Kenai will return to Mount Aris to meet them again, before she, Princess Skystar and their guards turned and walked away from all the other Hippogriffs and went to the beach, and then they all transformed back into Seaponies and went underwater back to Seaquestria.

Back at the royal castle's throne room, Chloe, Aylene, Stephan, Shujaa, Kenai, the princesses and all the others are now back from Mount Aris, but then they also started to leave the royal castle and go separate ways, and only Chloe, Aylene, Stephan, the twins, Shujaa and the princesses stayed in the royal castle, and then Celestia said to Shujaa "It seems you're no longer the only one here who has managed to redeem himself to our side, Shujaa.", and when the albino orangutan understood what she said, he then said back "Yes, I know. Kenai is going to have a happy life too, just like me.", and then Luna said "It really turned out good for Kenai in the end.", and when nighttime came, everyone (except for Luna, of course) finally fell asleep.
