//------------------------------// // Episode 2: Nightmare returns part 2 // Story: Assassin's Creed III:Friendship is magic season one // by Brony117 //------------------------------// Ponyville, Treehouse Library. “W-W-We gotta stop Nightmare! Ugh…” Said Spike as he was placed on his bed by Twilight as he instantly fell asleep peacefully. “Heh, you've been up all night, Spike. You are a baby Dragon after all.” Said Twilight as she left the room to give her assistant a good night rest. Now to deal with the real problem. Nightmare Moon's return! It was horrible. Nightmare’s reappearance not only made the ponies believe she's real, she thrown Equestria into nighttime forever! However, there is hope. The Elements of Harmony! They are the only thing that can stop Nightmare Moon for good, and bring things back to normal! But there's just one problem… Where are the Elements of Harmony?! It was time for some research! “Elements! Elements! Elements! Ugh! How can I stop Nightmare Moon without the Elements of Harmony?!” Yelled Twilight as she looked through the library to find a book that contained information about Elements of Harmony. But she couldn't find it. Just where is it?! “And just what are the Elements of Harmony?!” “Huh?” A rainbow streak dashed towards Twilight as a familiar face was against her face. “And how did you know about Nightmare Moon, huh? Are you a spy? Whoa!” Rainbow Dash was pulled away from Twilight by Applejack as she calmed the Pegasus down before she made things worse. “Calm down, Rainbow. She Ain't no spy.” “Yeah! She doesn't have a mask, a fancy suit, and a cool accent with her. If she did, the she really is a spy!” Pinkie Pie Replied as she Rarity, Fluttershy, and Connor arrived. Hearing her silly joke, Applejack rolled her eyes as she said. “Pinkie Pie, this Ain't the time to joke around! We don't even know what's going on! But Twilight, does know. Don't ya?” “She does. And so do I.” Everypony looked at Connor in Shock, as he told them he too knew what was going on. “Why Mr.Kenway, You knew this would happen?!” Rarity said as she was surprised that Connor knew such information about this. “Why didn't you tell us? If we knew about this Nightmare Moon character, we would've stopped her by now!” “Because I didn't want anypony but my men involved in this, and it would cause innocent ponies to get hurt! Also I just learned this from Twilight during our ‘welcoming’ celebration. We didn't have much time to prepare. But you all saw what she did. She nearly destroyed town hall with her magic! She's too powerful to go up against!” Connor was right. They all saw how powerful Nightmare Moon was. Both the Brotherhood and the Royal Guard fought, and still couldn't stop her. “He's is right,” Twilight spoke. “Connor kept this secret to protect you all for your safety. Originally I told this to Princess Celestia, but she didn't believe me. So I tried to do this by myself, but Connor overheard me whispering about Nightmare Moon, and wanted to know more.” “W-Well...he does have good hearing.” Fluttershy answered as it made sense to the others who knew Connor longer. “Oh. Well that explains it. Anyway, it's best to tell you what is going on. You see...I read about the prediction of Nightmare Moon, she was going to appear tonight. And we all saw what happened earlier. But there is way to stop her. Some mysterious objects called the Elements of Harmony are the only things that can stop her. But I don't know what they are, nor where to find them. I don't even know what they do!” “The Elements of Harmony: A reference guide.” Pinkie Pie said as she looked at one of the book shelf. Hearing caused Twilight to dash next to Pinkie Pie and saw the book she was looking for. “How did you find that?! I've been looking for it everywhere!” “It was under ‘E’ silly!” “...Oh…” Feeling relieved, yet embarrassed, Twilight used her magic to pull the book close to her, and opened it. Flipping through the pages, she finally found the information she needed. “Here it is! There are six Elements of Harmony, but only five are known, ‘Kindness, laughter, generosity, honesty, and loyalty’. The sixth is a complete mystery. It is said the last known location of the five elements was in the ancient castle of the royal pony sisters. It is located in what is now…*Gulp*” “What is Twilight? Don't hold out on us?” Applejack said as she and the others were eager to hear where the elements were now. Twilight struggled but replied. “It's...in...the Everfree Forest!” No pony said a word as Twilight revealed the location of where the Elements are now. Until. “Ah...son of a-” “Language!” Rarity shouted to Rainbow Dash. Ponyville border, Everfree Forest entrance. After learning the location of the elements of harmony, Twilight and the others stood at the entrance, looking at the mysterious forest with fear. No pony has ever dared enter the Everfree Forest, for whoever enters, never returns… They were not alone however, accompanying them were Connor’s brotherhood, giving the girls at least some protection before entering. They too looked at the forest with fear. Who could blame them? “Boss?” Asked one of the brotherhood officers. “Are you sure you wanna do this? I mean we know you have the skills but this is just crazy! You heard the stories about the Everfree Forest!” “That's right! We can't lose you after all that we've been through!” “I understand your worries,” Connor Replied to his men “but know that if we don't find these element's, then Nightmare Moon's terror will not be stopped! This is our only way to stop her.” Their mentor was right. If these artifacts can save Equestria, then what choice do they have? It's not like a group of superheroes from the comics they read in their down time can save them. “Alright, boss...we'll trust you on this. What are your orders?” “Guard the entrance! We can't let anypony, enter or leave this forest! Radio the others to patrol the village, and inform the citizens to stay in their homes. Martial law is in effect at this time! It's a bit ruthless, but we must do what we can to protect our home and family!” Hearing Connor’s inspiring words gave the officers the motivation to keep going. When it comes their family, they will protect them from all forms danger. Giving their master a salute, the brotherhood went to work. Seeing this being done, Connor joined with Twilight and the others. Seeing how great of a leader he is, Twilight said. “Wow! I've never seen a pony motivate their officers with a brave speech!” “Ponyville has been through a horrible time, they were secretly being abused. I just couldn't do nothing and, see innocents being involved to this kind of violence! They deserved better.” “I read the news on the paper. It's hard to believe somepony abused their power for their own personal gain. Never in my life I would hear such a thing would happen to other ponies.” “I have a feeling it will not be the only time this will happen. But nevermind that, we have a bigger issue at the moment. Nightmare Moon is at large. The sooner we find the elements, the quicker we restore peace.” “Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!” Yelled Pinkie Pie as she jumped in excitement! “Not so fast!” Said Twilight as she stopped the pink pony and spoke to the group. “Look I appreciate the help, but I'd really rather do this with Connor and, me. We're both capable of doing this by ourselves. Besides, I can't have the five of you endangering yourselves and the mission. I'm sorry girls.” The five mares Said nothing as Twilight didn't want to put them in danger. Who knows what kind of danger lies inside the Everfree Forest! And it's true what she said. Both she and, Connor are able to find the elements. What can five civilianized ponies like them can do? They would only get in they way. Perhaps if- “No can do sugar cube.” Applejack spoke. “What?!” “We sure ain't letting any friend of ours going into that creepy place alone.” “Friend? I've never said anything about-” “We don't mean you Twilight. Sorry. But we're talking about our good friend Connor here!” “Me?” Replied Connor as he was shocked of what Applejack said. “That's right. We are sticking to you like caramel on a candy apple!” “That's right!” said Rainbow Dash. “I ain't gonna let a good pal of mine go into a creepy forest alone. Don't wanna let you take all the credit beating Nightmare Moon!” “I must admit I have to agree with Rainbow Dash.” Rarity added. “After all the good things you had done for us, and all of Ponyville, Mr. Kenway, we can't just wait at our homes and wait for you to return. I rather go into this filthy forest and aid you in this quest.” “I-I-I don't want to go into the Everfree Forest, b-but I want to help too! You been helpful to us all Mr. Connor, I want to pay you back by helping!” Fluttershy spoke bravely as she could. “Yeah me too! I wanna do some awesome adventuring and, see what kind of action we get to see next! After all, you're not the main character in this story Twilight. Sorry.” “Wait. What?” Connor smiled at his friends as he saw their loyalty to him. “Heh, no matter what I say to change your minds, you won't leave?” “Nope.” “Nah.” “Of course not.” “No. “Pfft! No way!” The male Pegasus smiled even more, these mares are really something. “Well then, it seems there is no choice. Twilight, we have some ‘volunteers’ who wish to join us. And they won't take no for a answer.” “B-But-” Without saying another word, Connor, and the others walked into the Everfree Forest, Leaving a shocked Twilight behind. (*Sigh* “What have I gotten myself into...this can't get any worse.”) As the unicorn entered the forest, a familiar mist follows the group. As it had plans for the ponies up ahead. As the group walked into the forest, they met all kinds of danger. From the ground falling apart, to an angry creature called a Manticore, a scary forest, and crying large sea serpent. Connor was lucky to have his friends to come and help. Without them, he and Twilight would've never return! However Connor couldn't help but wonder if all this danger was a trap? He could feel that somepony or something was following them. He wanted to tell the girls, but that would increase the danger around them. So he kept quiet, and continued the journey. eventually, they found what they have been looking for. A ruin castle! That has to be where the Elements of Harmony are held! As the group entered the castle, they found a large pillar in the middle. On it, had five, round stones with symbols of gems. “What do you think Twilight? Are these it?” The unicorn looked closer at the pillar and, and replied. “The Elements of Harmony! We found them! Quick, grab them so I can inspect.” Connor, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy carefully grabbed the stones and gently placed them on the ground. As the three Pegasus, handed the Elements, Pinkie Pie counted them. “One, two, three, four, um...Twilight? There's only five!” “She's right! Where's the sixth?” Rainbow Dash replied. “Well let's see, the book said when the five are present, a spark will cause the sixth Element to be revealed.” “What in the hay is that suppose to mean?” “I'm not sure, but I have an idea. Stand back, this could get messy.” Twilight closed her eyes as her horn began to glow. Seeing it will take a while, Applejack suggested she and the others should wait outside to give Twilight some room. Walking back outside, Connor heard a faint noise, he turned around and saw a familiar mist. And it was heading towards Twilight! “TWILIGHT LOOK OUT!!!” Shouted Connor as he flew towards her. As he entered the castle once more, as he got close, both he and Twilight disappeared. Along with the Elements… Ruin castle, Unknown location. In a flash of light, Connor crashed onto the ground. He stood up, and found himself in another part of the castle. He turned around, and saw Twilight shaking her head from the flash of light. He ran towards her and said. “Twilight! Are you alright?” “Y-Yes, I'm fine. But where are we? What was that mist?” Her question was answered when a laugh was heard, they looked and saw no other than Nightmare Moon herself! “Damn! She's here! And with the Elements!” “Don't worry I have a plan, follow my lead!” Without another word, both ponies prepared themselves to make their move. Seeing this surprised Nightmare Moon, as she couldn't believe what they were about to do. “You're kidding. You're kidding right?” They proved they weren't kidding as they charged towards the Alicorn head on. Impressed with their bravery, Nightmare Moon charged as well. As they got closer and closer, Twilight disappeared! Catching the large mare by surprise as Connor slid under her and used his hidden blade to slash one of her legs, causing Nightmare Moon to skid into the ground. “ARRRGH!!!” Halting his slide, Connor turned around and saw Twilight using her magic in the stones. He needed to buy her some time for the spell to work. As Nightmare Moon's wound healed, she looked up and saw a familiar figure from earlier. “You!” “Nightmare Moon! Your reign of terror is at an end! Once Twilight activates the elements of harmony, it will all be over for you!” “Never! I have waited a thousand for my revenge, and I will not let some mortal colt stand in my way!!!” “Then let us see who will be the victor of this battle!” [Play Goku black’s theme from Dragon Ball FighterZ] With a battle cry, Nightmare Moon's horn glowed as she summoned her sword, and flew towards Connor. The Assassin did the same as he unsheathed his sword and tomahawk. Their weapons clashed, creating a violent wind around them, causing both ponies to be blown back apart from each other. Seeing this will be an interesting battle, Nightmare Moon charged once more and swinged her sword at the Pegasus. Acting quickly, Connor blocked the attack with his sword, and swinged his tomahawk at his opponent. Only for it to be blocked by another sword summoned by Nightmare Moon herself. Both had their weapons locked together as they looked at each other and said. “*Tch* Not fighting fair are we?” “I've waited a thousand for my return, I will succeed at any cost to have my vengeance against Celestia, and claim equestria!” “I know how angry you are. Your hatred towards your sister.” Nightmare Moon gave a surprised look, she didn't expect this colt to mention Celestia as her sister. “I heard of your tale from Twilight, how your jealousy got the better of you, creating what you are now! The actions of the ponies from the past shunned your rule of the night, they didn't know any better!” “Y-YOU KNOW NOTHING OF ME FOOL!!! TRYING TO REASON WITH ME WILL NOT FAVOR YOU!!!” “Who said anything about reasoning?” “What?!” “I can't speak for the ponies from past , but I can speak for those for the future! And they are telling me they will not stand for this! They will not surrender! They will not let you win!” The Assassin shoved his locked tomahawk from Nightmare Moon's sword, catching her by surprise as Connor heatbutted her head, forcing her to stumble back. Looking back at the Pegasus, she looked at him as he had determination to fight with all his might!” “AND I WILL FIGHT!” “DAMN MORTAL!!! Nightmare Moon charged once more at Connor as her anger towards him grew even more. Blinded by her fury, the black Alicorn rapidly swinged her swords at the Pegasus. He quickly blocked most of them but the some of the attacks managed to reach him, giving him some minor scratch wounds. Seeing one of the attacks was heading towards him, Connor ducked down, slid underneath behind Nightmare Moon and attacked, only for it to blocked. Nightmare Moon's horn glowed and fired directly to Connor as he was blasted back into a wall. Feeling the satisfaction of this sight, Nightmare Moon said. “Hahaha! How pathetic! Where was the bravado you had earlier? Was it for show? Or was it for bravery against me?” Freeing himself from the wall, Connor looked like he had seen better days. His outfit was torn, his chest was burned but not life threatening, and his body was aching in pain. The poor Pegasus feel on his knees as he coughed from the impact. Yet he slowly stood up and flew toward the Nightmare Moon to fight back. The former Princess of the Night looked impressed, very impressed. This moral Pegasus didn't want to yield, he sure wants to defeat her. She felt...excited! This warrior was giving her a battle she needed, there has never been a fighter that lasted this long! As Connor came close enough to attack, Nightmare Moon defended herself as the Colt’s sword made contact with her’s. Suddenly, she felt a huge pain on her left shoulder as she cried in pain. Nightmare Moon looked at her shoulder to see a tomahawk impaled into her. Immediately, she pushed the Assassin away from her to recover. Nightmare Moon pulled the weapon from her shoulder with magic as it started to heal. She tossed the tomahawk aside, looked at Connor and smiled. (“This battle is amazing! Never in my wildest dreams had a pony made me feel alive! Slaying ponies that dared faced me instantly lost their lives to me in battle! It was boring, yet steps to achieve my goal. But this pony is has made me excited! This is the best high!”) “More...give me more…” “Huh?” “GIVE ME MORE PAIN!!!” Nightmare Moon's scream shook the entire area as Connor covered his eyes from the dust and dirt that blew his direction. Taking a peek, he saw the Alicorn waiting for him to attack. Just what was her plan? And what's with her mentioning pain? Was she...crazy or plain insane? He had to be careful, this is an Alicorn he's fighting. The Black Alicorn started to become frustrated as this mortal Pegasus was keeping her waiting. When is he going to fight?! If this mortal was going put her excitement on hold, then she should finish him right now! *Boom* “ARGH! *COUGH* *COUGH*” Nightmare Moon was caught off guard as a smoke bomb exploded in front of her, as the smoke cleared, Connor disappeared. She slightly smiled as the fight was finally continuing. While the Alicorn was looking for him, Connor hid behind one of the pillars as he readied his bow and arrow. He peeked out and carefully aimed at the tall mare. Still searching for the colt , Nightmare Moon heard heard faint sound, she turned around and saw an arrow coming towards her. She used her magic to stop it just in time before it came contact. “There you are!” Nightmare Moon yelled as she fired a beam from her horn to the pillar it came from. *BOOM* As the pillar exploded, there was no pony there. Nightmare Moon could've sworn somepony was there. *Fwip* “ARGH! Damn it mortal! Come out and face me!” Yelled Nightmare Moon as she pulled out an arrow from her body. “No.” *Fwip* Again, Nightmare Moon turned and caught an arrow this time. “Ha! Try again fool!” “Look closer.” “Eh?” *Boom* “Gah! *COUGH* *COUGH*” Another smoke bomb went off, but this time it was attached to the arrow! Giving Connor the chance to attack. As Nightmare Moon was distracted, and suddenly felt an object colliding her face, causing her to stumble back. She saw herself away from the smoke and heard a scream. Looking up, Connor was in the air as he brought down his bow on her head *Wack* “GAH!” But it wasn't over yet, as he landed, Connor swinged his bow to the right in her face, then a roundhouse kick with his right hind leg to her left face, and a left punch to the right once again, finally an uppercut to to the chin, causing her to fly backwards onto the ground. Seeing this as a chance to end this, Connor flew right up to Nightmare Moon, readied his hidden blade, and brought it down. “ENOUGH!!!” [Stop music] Just an inch away from her neck, Connor was held in the air by Nightmare Moon's magic as he couldn't move at all! “Damn it! Not again!” “*Phew* That was a close call.” Connor tried to escape from the Alicorns magical grasp, but it was no use. Nightmare Moon stood up from the ground and said. “I must say, you have given me a battle that had me feeling excited! However I'm afraid I have to end this and return to my conquest of ruling Equestria. Though I must admit, going easy on you surely has made me misjudge a Pegasus such as yourself.” Hearing what Nightmare Moon said shocked Connor, she was going easy on him this whole time?! Then, this fight was pointless! Almost at least… “You were not serious the whole time?! You could've easily killed me during our battle! But why wait?!” “Because your the first pony who has bravely manage to fight me. Others were forced, or had no choice. Sadly they didn't last, you on the other hoof, were able survive the longest and to almost best me in combat without acting like a coward. Despite your kinds history of warrior like attitude, you really surpassed their skill of battle. Whatever training you took it certainly has made you quite a foe. However…” Nightmare Moon flew up into Connor’s and screamed. “IT'S USELESS! USELESS! USELESS! USELESS! USELESS! USELESS! A MERE MORTAL CAN NEVER DEFEAT AN IMMORTAL! IN COMPARISON TO MY POWER, YOU ARE BUT A MERE WEAK MORTAL!!!” Nightmare Moon levitated all the arrows from Connor’s quiver and aimed them at him! The poor Pegasus looked hopeless as he prepared to meet his end. That is until he replied. “Before you finish me off, how about I say my final words?” Nightmare Moon slightly laughed and said. “Very well, speak your last words before your death. For they will be remembered when I take over Equestria.” Connor smirked as he said. “This show battle was pointless from the beginning, seeing how powerful you are against me.” The Black Alicorn smiled as his words struck true. “However…You merely forgot that it was a distraction!” “WHAT?!” [Play JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders OST- Stardust Crusaders A.K.A, Jotaro’s theme] “That's right, when Twilight, and I charged towards you, I took the chance to attack when she surprised you with her magic by disappearing. Despite being a reckless plan, it miraculously worked! I fought with everything I had to stop you, knowing how powerless I am against an Alicorn. Strangely yet relieved, you've decided to fight me as an equal with the help of your magic. And during our battle, I was only a distraction to give Twilight the time to use the only thing to truly stop you!” Suddenly, a bright light appeared behind Nightmare Moon. She turned, and saw the objects that made her afraid for the first time in one thousand years. The Elements of Harmony. She looked at Connor with pure hatred in her eyes as he still had the smirk look on his face. “Looks like the plan worked. It seems I am the victor of this battle! It's over Nightmare Moon! You've lost!” “This can't be happening! I can't let it end like this!” “It is happening. One way, or another.” “RAAAAAAAAAA!!!” With a glow of her horn, Nightmare Moon fired the arrows and ran towards the direction of the Elements of Harmony. Leaving Connor to receive the full salvo of his own arrows. Impaling the defenseless colt and falling on ground. [Stop music at 1:10 or just listen to the rest of the music for fun] Breathing heavily from his wounds, and covered in his own blood, Connor’s vision started to fade as he looked into the bright light, seeing Nightmare Moon heading towards it. He smiled as he can now rest, placing his hope and faith into Twilight. With one last breath, Connor closed his eyes. … … … … … … … … ...Con…ge...up... Com...part...yo...ca... Ple...wa…up...nor… Don...ei...dam…it... Mr…way...can…ha...on... Wa...up...sl...hea... Ratonhnhaké ton! *Gasp* “CONNOR!!!” A massive pressure crushed Connor’s chest. He looked down and saw Twilight and the others hugging him as they cried in happiness that their friend was alive. “Connor! You're alive!” Twilight said as she released him. “Thank goodness...for moment there, I thought you weren't gonna wake up!” “Wha...What happened? Where's Nightmare Moon? And the Elements of Harmony?” “Its ok Connor, Nightmare Moon is gone. As for the Elements of Harmony, we're wearing them see?” The Pegasus looked at Twilight as she wore a tiara with a jewel on it that looked like her cutie mark. He then turned to see his friends wearing necklaces with their cutie marks on it as well. Those were the Elements of Harmony alright. “I see, then that means things are back to normal.” “That's right!” “Good. Now I must ask, earlier for a moment, I thought I had passed away. I was sure I died  but I didn't, how did-” “You can thank my sister for that.” Hearing an unfamiliar voice, A tall mare walked towards them. It was another Alicorn! Similar to Nightmare Moon, only except she made you feel...calm. Her coat was pure white, the mane and tail were colored different, almost like a rainbow with its colors were lighter. She was even wearing jewelry that definitely looked royalty. Her cutie Mark was the sun. Connor looked closer at this Pony, and realized who she was as he remembered his history lessons last year. Especially from Twilight’s story and his fight with Nightmare Moon. “Princess...Celestia?” She nodded. “That I am. You must be Connor Kenway, it is an honor to meet the pony who stopped the secret corruption that was happening in Ponyville last year.” The Assassin slightly smiled as the Princess mention of his heroic actions. But the tall mare then frowned as she went on. “But I strongly disapprove of taking the lives of those who participated in the crimes they have committed. If you were able to at least spare them, then justice would've been served appropriately!” Connor’s smiled faded as he looked at the Princess with a serious look. Twilight whispered to him and said. “I told you.” “*Groan* Don't remind me.” Complained the stallion as he changed to subject. “You mentioned your sister saved me, how?” “You can ask her that question herself, come out Luna, Connor would like to meet you.” Another, yet small Alicorn, peeked out from behind Celestia. Her coat was dark blue, the color of her mane, and tail is sapphire blue. Her cutie mark is a black mist cloud, in front of it was the moon in a crescent phase. Meeting the pony she previously wanted to kill as Nightmare Moon, Princess Luna nervously spoke. “Uh...H-Hello! I um...I was the one who saved you. I felt terrible for taking the life of another pony trying to stop me as my other self. After being freed as Nightmare Moon, I remembered what I have done to you with my hate. I sensed that you were still alive, moments from death. So I thought could at least do one good thing by resurrecting you. Surprisingly, it worked. Doing this good deed felt like a step to at least pay for my crimes against my sister, and our home.” “You thought you could be redeemed for all the evil actions you've done by using your magic to bring me back? Just so I can forgive you for nearly killing me?” Princess Luna started to cry as Connors words struck the Alicon like a knife as she replied. “YES! I WANTED TO BE FORGIVEN BY RETURNING YOU BACK JUST SO I CAN SHOW THE OTHERS I AM NOT NIGHTMARE MOON ANYMORE! I-I WANT TO ATONE FOR MY ACTIONS AND I WILL DO ANYTHING FOR FORGIVENESS! HURT ME, CURSE ME, DO ANYTHING TO ME! WHATEVER IT TAKES! PLEASE!” With that, Princess Luna fell onto the ground and cried. Her tears flowed from her eyes like a waterfall as Alicorns choice of words made her sister and others felt pity for her. All except Connor as he looked at her with a neutral expression, as he was given a choice. Forgive or punish. Instantly, he made a choice. Without hesitation. The assassin stood up and walked towards the princess of the night as he unsheathed his hidden blade. Seeing this made Twilight and the others surprised as they didn't know Connor would go to this route! Princess Celestia’s horn glowed as she prepared to strike the Pegasus if he laid a hoof on her little sister. Feeling his presence and the sound of a blade, Princess Luna prepared herself for her punishment. *shink* … … … “Huh?” She felt something on her cheek, it felt like a cloth! Princess Luna opened her eyes and saw Connor in front of her, drying her tears away with a piece of his own robes, untouched by dirt and blood. He looked her with comfort smile, and said. “I may not know the customs of royalty, but I do know that a princess such as yourself mustn't cry in front of her subjects.” Princess Luna smiled, as she hugged Connor tightly as she could. Despite still being in pain, the colt returned hug. Princess Celestia and the others smiled, seeing the scene in front of them. Feeling happy, also relieved, that Connor, has chosen to forgive. The day has been saved as Equestria has been returned to normal. Nightmare Moon is gone and it's princess of the night has returned. But this not the end, for this is merely just the beginning of a new journey as threats not only dangers the safety of their home, but other countries in the world… To be continued...
