A week later, Spotlight goes off for a few weeks to spend some family time with his sister, Limelight, and brother, Highlight. Rara sighs. She's glad to finally have a little time to herself since she doesn't have a concert again for another three weeks. She can begin work on several new songs. One of the new songs she's working on is a duet with Applejack, who is staying with her this week.
"So, what do you think we should do for the lyrics on the duet?" Rara asks Applejack.
"Well, I have an idea," says Applejack. "Follow my lead. When we were fillies, we were close as close could get. We did everything together and that hasn't changed, not yet. Our friendship has outlasted several others. It'll outlive history. I'm a part of you and you're a part of me."
Rara nods then picks up her guitar and begins to sing along. "When I first met you, my life felt so complete. We were close as close could get. I will never forget. We became the best of friends, now I'd have it no other way. We went swimming together, bowling together, putt-putting together, we did everything together. We were the best of friends. Some things never change. You always have my back and I always have yours."
The two then begin to sing together. "We are the best of friends, that will never change. I will always have your back and you'll always have mine too! When we first met, it changed everything. After that, we stayed close almost bound at the hip. Our friendship will outlast the years. We have no need to fear. Friends always stick together, best friends always stick together for years. Best friends always stick together for years!"
Meanwhile, in Canterlot, Spotlight has a nice lunch with his siblings, chatting, joking, and just catching up. After lunch, the three go off to the Canterlot Music Hall of Fame and Art Museum for several hours on end. Spotlight can't help but smile. "I'm so glad I get to spend the week with you guys!"
"And we're glad we get to spend it with you," reply Limelight and Highlight.
"So," says Limelight, "did you ask Rara to marry you yet?"
"Yes," replies Spotlight, "and she said yes!"
"Well, good for you!" Limelight replies with a smile.
"What about you and Trotter? How's that going?" asks Spotlight.
"Trotter and I have just celebrated our third anniversary of our marriage and we're expecting our first foal," replies Limelight with a smile.
"Congratulations!" replies Spotlight.
"Yeah, congratulations little sis!" responds Highlight.
"Thanks, you two are the best!" replies Limelight with a smile.
The three then stop talking and get back to looking around at all the paintings and pieces of music history. The three are so glad that they're so close. They'd honestly have it no other way.
Meanwhile back in Manehattan, Rara and Applejack finish up the songs and head out for some nice, refreshing ice cream. Rara is glad to have Applejack around. Applejack's just glad Rara is happy because that is all she could ever want for her best friend.
