Friday. The day every student at CHS looked forward to the most. Burst and the rangers were especially excited. Once school had ended, they went to Sugar Cube Corner. Once they arrived, Pinkie surprised them all with a huge party! Everyone chatted, laughed, and had a good time. As the party went on, Scorpan approached Burst.
"You did well to defeat my brother.", Scorpan said with a smile. "You're probably even stronger than the stranger who almost freed me."
"Thanks.", Burst said with a small smile. He then looked at his friends busting a move. "And if you'll excuse me, I've got a party to get back to." The party carried on into the early evening, and came to a close. The rangers all headed home. "See you tomorrow Celestia." Burst and Celestia shared a kiss before she headed home. Burst's thoughts then turned to Tirek's reaction when he first saw him. Nightmare noticed Burst's expression.
"Burst? What's wrong?", she asked.
"Nothing Moon. It's just...Tirek said I looked a lot like a guy who nearly defeated him thirteen years ago. And...it reminded me of something."
"What is it?"
"Thirteen years ago my dad disappeared from my life. He just disappeared, and I asked my mom if it was something he did. She just cried and held me tight and told me that he had something important to do. He did leave me with this." Burst reached under his shirt, and pulled out a necklace that had Blue Eyes White Dragon on it. "She told me that as long as I wear this, I'd see him again one day. And for thirteen years I've always worn it." Nightmare pulled Burst into a tight hug. "I guess you can see where this theory is leading right? Maybe it's stupid..." Nightmare then turned Burst's head to her.
"I think it's sweet. Who knows? Maybe your dad will come back to you. But for now, let's just be happy the world is safe again."
"Yeah. You're right." Burst and Nightmare made their way to Burst's house, and got ready for bed. Burst took off his Blue Eyes necklace and placed it on his night stand. However, he failed to notice the slight blue glow it was giving off.
At the edge of Canterlot....
Aether's Blue Eyes's necklace was glowing. He closed his eyes, and focused on where the other necklace was glowing. As he opened his eyes, he smiled. "Burst. I'm coming home.", he said to himself. Soon there was a knock on his door. "Come in." A boy Burst's age with the same hair and eyes but light grey skin stepped closer.
"So this is where you sensed your real son?", the boy asked.
Aether nodded. "Yes. This is his home. Before I left him behind. Not a day goes by that I regret it. But now I'm back, and we can be a family again."
"I assume you'll introduce me too?"
"That's right. Burst should get along fine with you. Blitz Surge."
