Scootaloo's Secret
Epilogue
10 years later: Unknown pony P.O.V.
Today has been a sunny and clear day all week, all the ponies were doing things in their routine, but one her routine was different as she is seen at the Ponyville cemetery standing there talking.
"Hey it's me again, I'm sorry it's been a while, been busy with a lot of things, I hope you're not mad at me. As I was saying things have gotten better since my mama Celestia has adopted me and I've done a lot of growing up….It was so hard for me what I went through…"
Celestia castle ten years ago, as she sits on her throne she commanded her guards in her royal canterlot voice,
"BRING ME THE PRISONER NAMED COBBLESTONE!"
As the guards brought the said stallion in chains and placed him in the middle of the throne room and locked him down, Celestia read the charges against him ranging from sexual battery to child abuse and many other charges too numerous to list. Celestia looked at the prisoner and said to him,
"It seems all the charges against you are overwhelming and I see it looks like you're looking at 30 years in the dungeons…."
As the conversation was going on a bright blue flash appeared next to Celestia she paused to see Luna who leaned over to her and whispered in her ear she raised her eyebrows and turned and replied softly,
"Are you sure Luna?"
She nodded yes with a very sad look; Celestia's face turned to concern and looked over at Scootaloo, after thinking it over very carefully Celestia resumed her charges and paused and said,
"It seems something has come to my attention that a witness has come forward, guards bring the stallion in."
As the guards went through the doors they returned with a stallion limping in Celestia's throne room breathing very labored, his coat was at one time a very bright sunshine yellow and his wings were broad and strong and perfect yellow that matched his coat, like his mane and tail a very healthy light grapish purple, and his eyes were a sparkling grey as time aged him as he limped in the courtroom you see a different stallion of what he was weak, loss of color, and barely clinging to life by a thread, as he approached to the middle of the room he stood very weakly next to the chained down Cobblestone and glared angrily at him and a smile crept toward his muzzle in which in turn he bowed.
"Arise stallion state your name."
As the stallion rose he took a labored breath and spoke,
"I'm Sun Streaker the pony that was nearly murdered 9 years ago."
"Daddy?..."
The aged stallion looked over at the source of the squeak,
"Scootaloo….."
Before Scootaloo was about to leave Celestia's side when a hoof blocked her way, Scootaloo looked up at Celestia nodded a soft no and told her,
"No scootie now is not the time please trust me on this ok, I promise you will spend time with your father ok scootie."
Scootaloo looked up at her adopted mother and smiled knowing very well she would protect her from everything even from the nightmares that Scootaloo gets from time to time but there was a time of so much pain that she will tell her mom about it. But is so afraid to tell her so, she sometimes say's it's just the boogey monster's and stuff making Celestia believe her and holds her under her protective wings in which she loves, but right now she will stay where she is and wait and replied.
"Ok mama Tia I'll wait."
At this point Cobblestone shouted and tried to break loose of his chains but to no avail,
"WHO IS THIS STALLION I DON'T KNOW HIM!"
"SILENCE!"
Yells Celestia,
"Continue Sun Streaker."
"Thank you as I was saying I was nearly killed by Cobblestone and Gale Gust because of my life insurance of one million bits which you planned it out, and waited for me, made it look like a mugging and killed me. But you didn't finished the job I was bleeding out till somepony took me to the hospital I nearly died that day, but I never forgotten you Cobblestone you see I was an officer of the court in Canterlot P.D. as a Lieutenant of Detectives and I had a file on you on all your activities with another victim I was close to catching you and putting you away until this I was in a coma since that day and I made sure to keep tabs on you. Like surveillance and recordings of your activities you see you signed your own death warrant when you confessed my murder after you killed my wife Gale Gust, I know Scootaloo that your mother didn't protect you and I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you but I promise you this that I will be there for you if you can forgive me."
After the hard and labored breathing was from Sun Streaker the throne room was eerily silent for a few moments until a soft regal voice was heard saying,
"Well it seems now more charges are added on including attempted murder and the murder of Gale Gust and the penalty is death but as a Princess that's not going to happen, but you are going to spend the rest of your life in the dungeons and the only way your leaving is by hoof first, Guards! Take him away."
"NO YOU CAN'T DO THIS I'M IMPORTANT YOU ARE NOTHING TO ME YOU SELF RIGHTEOUS BITCH, NOOoooooooooo…."
As that last sentence was heard as the door closed behind them and the throne room was silent once more, Scootaloo ran past Celestia towards Sun Streaker with tears in her eyes,
"Daddy!, I forgive you, please forgive me for not being there for you."
"Its ok baby girl, I forgive you daddy is here."
Sun Streaker responded as Scootaloo hugs her daddy's foreleg as this scene was going on with tears from both Scootaloo and Sun Streaker the echoing of cries can be heard in the throne room….
Present Day
"I was so happy to have you back, I would be more happier if you married mama Tia, you know that's the only time that mama blushed so red that it made Big Mac's coat pale in comparison. Also you being there for me even when the bad things happen, when Cobblestone escaped from the dungeons…."
Flashback 5 years ago
A lone stallion running up the stone stairs reaching the wooden doors in which he opened very slowly, as you see a haggard stallion with a crazed look on his face,
"Finally, I escaped from that hell hole first part of my plan done, next part get away and plan my revenge on Scootaloo, Sun Streaker, and Princess Celestia their deaths will be so horrible, I can't contain my glee *crazed laughter* urk…"
Present Day
"Who could Imagine that Cobblestone was killed by Aunt Luna's horn as she was taking her nightly walk in the castle, fate was on my side that day and the day I got married and you walked me down the aisle I cried tears of joy. Also after we came back and settled in our new home you told me you had cancer and it was incurable out of all the happiness I cried that day and I was going to lose you again, but you told me to stay strong, look forward and see the light. I did that I just wished you stayed alive a little longer to see your grand foal's being born and they were twins and their names are Diving Sun Splash your grandcolt and Lickety Gale Split your grandfillie. I used your first name to remember you two at first I was hesitant of using mom's first name but after the recordings when mom found out after Cobblestone confessed to her that he killed her husband at that moment she decided to go to the authorities and tried really hard to get me back. But fate again had other plans when that mother bucking bastard killed mom. I still hear those words stay strong, look forward and see the light. I did that got my cutie mark in helping children I'm still amazed as I see my cutie mark of a pony with angelic wings and a halo surrounded by fillies and colts. My friends, no my sisters Applebloom, and Sweetie Belle were so happy for me the next few years I studied, graduated at the top of my class, got a job working with Mrs. Staples till she retired. I learned so much from her and to this day my life is so enriched that made my past so less horrible day by day, and those fillies and colts I see every day I save some and I lose some, but I will never forget you and your words daddy…."
"Mom are you ok?"
Asked Lickety and Diving in unison,
"I'm alright you two I'll be with you, go to dad ok."
As the two teenagers looked at their mother and the gravestone and both of them hugged her so tight they let go and went about their way towards their father,
"Sorry daddy your grandfoals say hi looks like I got to get going and spend my life with a terrific husband and a hooful of teenage kids and continue on staying strong, look forward, and see the light. Thank you so much for filling my empty heart and I love you daddy…bye,"
As Scootaloo turned around and trotted away leaving behind freshly cut daisies and lily's at his gravestone as they fluttered in the wind knowing that one life is finally happy.
The End
A/N: Thank you for following this story it seems I had the emotional punch of putting Fin but no Biggmomma46 doesn't want it and argued with me for about an hour which I'm never getting it back so I lost this argument. Ok now I'm calm but my artistic thinking went out the window. That's another thing she likes straight to the point and simple and me drawn out and artistically sound and more broad and using your imaginations to see what I write to my perfect crescendo of art. Now whose the drama queen as I was going to say before I was so rudely interrupted thank you for following this story and I hope this explains a lot of things. Peace out.
