//------------------------------// // Epilogue // Story: Three Sirens and a Sunset // by Shadowsnake89 //------------------------------// Canterlot Castle Inside one of the castles many secret rooms, Celestia and Luna are making certain that the pendent is secured. “There. This will ensure it never falls into the wrong hands.” Celestia says, placing it in a glass case on a pedestal. “King Sombra's power is truly horrifying. Are you positive it will be safe here sister?” Luna asks, having been on the receiving end of the powerful new artifact. “As long as it remains under our watch here in the castle, Equestria has nothing to worry about.” As the two turn away to leave, the eyes of Sombra form on the surface of the stone as a low, wicked chuckle escapes from it. Less than a second later the two turn to hear a crash as the pedestal holding the pendent has fallen over, the contained item smashed. The pieces slowly vaporize as Sombra's voice cries out in a long howl. “Nooooooooo!” “Oops.” Double Down says levitating a broom as he, Cut Off and Boogie Night look nervously at the Princesses. “Are we fired?” Celestia pauses for a moment, looking down at the broken display where the gem once was then back to the trio. “You now, it's probably better this way.” She says casually. “Agreed sister.” The princesses walk away as the three give each other confused stares before getting to the task of cleaning up the mess they have just made.
