A couple of weeks later…
Twilight Velvet, Dream Walker and Night Light were sitting in the living room at the end of the day. They’d shared a great meal. Night Light was starting to fear he was going to get fat because his wife and sister, who’d moved in with them now, were producing some absolutely fabulous food.
The conversation was about the letters and cards they’d received from Neighagra Falls where Twilight and Applejack were honeymooning.
“For a couple who’ve ‘been together’ for several years,” said Velvet, “they are sure doing the newlywed thing.”
“I’m so happy that they are,” said Night Light.
“I’m sure that they didn’t tear up somepony’s uniforms their first night,” said Dream Walker, winking at Velvet who just blushed.
“I wouldn’t be so sure that some wedding dresses didn’t sustain any damage.” Said Night.
Everypony laughed hard.
“When are they supposed to be back in Ponyville?” asked Dream.
“Next week,” said Twilight, “Pinkie Pie has an after honeymoon party planed and we’re invited to attend. Plus Granny Smith invited us to stay at Sweet Apple Acres. She wanted to talk with ponies that are closer to her age. Plus I think Apple Bloom just likes us to be around.”
“I think that’d be great,” said Dream, “and I really love that sweet little filly.”
A knocking at the door interrupted their talking.
“I’ll get it,” said Night Light.
He got up and went to the door. He was only a minute when he called out:
“Ladies, I think you need to come here.”
Twilight and Dream looked questioningly at each other and got up to see what this was all about.
As they made it to the door, they saw a Ψ agent courier.
“What can we do for you, private?” asked Dream.
“I have a message for Field Marshal Twilight Velvet and Brigadier General Dream Walker.
That’s us said Twilight Velvet.
The courier saluted and the two retired officers returned it. He levitated a scroll to them, saluted again and then turned and left.
They all went back to the living room sat. Twilight and Dream were sitting next to each other. They both looked the scroll over, then they looked at each other in astonishment.
“What is it?” asked Night.
“Honey,” said Twilight to her mate. “Duty calls!”
