Epilogue - Return To Equestria

Edge of Grazil September 1st 1001

Pinkie and Chrysalis stood at the end of town waiting for Twilight.

"Here she comes!" Pinkie said as she noticed Twilight walking toward them.

"So, where's Blue and Graymayne?" Chrysalis asked her when she was close enough.

"I... don't know..." she said. "I went to the hospital, but they weren't in the room. I asked the staff, but they said that besides us, nopony left the room."

"Where do you think they went?"

"I don't know. Knowing Blue, he could be anywhere."

"Well, let's not waste any more time standing here!" Pinkie said. "Blue said he'd catch up later, and he will! Right now, we should get you back home!"

Twilight smiled. "I'd like that..."

Edge of Equestria September 1st 1001

"Well, here's the border," Twilight said. "What was your idea again Pinkie?"

"To sneak past it!" she cheerfully replied.

"Right... And how do you purpose we do that?"

"Like this!" she said, falling flat onto the ground and moving like some kind of spy.

"Pinkie, you look ridiculous," Chrysalis commented.

Pinkie ignored her and just continued her weird movements. Eventually, she passed the border and was back in Equestria. "See, it works!"

"That's because you're not the one they want to keep out," Twilight said. "Me and Chrysalis here are the ones who would have trouble."

"Then stop talking and try it for yourselves!"

Twilight and Chrysalis both shook their heads. Twilight slightly stepped back, but Chrysalis fell completely to the ground and started moving like Pinkie did.

"What the heck," Twilight said as she fell to the ground herself and started crawling.

The border seemed to just creep closer and closer as Twilight and Chrysalis laid on the ground. Right before it reached her, Twilight closed her eyes and expected to collide with the invisible barrier.

But it never came.

She opened her eyes and looked around her. She was across the border. She was home.

"See? I told you it would work!" Pinkie said.

"That's strange," Twilight said to herself. "There was no magic at all. Wonder what it could mean..."

"Come on Twilight!" Pinkie called from a slight distance. Twilight looked up and saw her friend walking the path back to Equestria. "Let's go home!"

"Home..." Twilight repeated, smiling. "I'm coming home."

She ran after Pinkie and Chrysalis. She had no idea what awaited her there.
