Distorted World
Chapter 20-Epilogue:Calm Before The Storm
The stone fell away, as they were released from the prison of their minds. The statue of Discord had crumbled now, just a pile of rocks. Their friends shouted for joy, and they had a group hug.
"I knew you guys, could do it!" Twilight praised.
They were all relieved, to have the crisis over with.

Back at the castle, Fluttershy and Spike prepared to tell the story of their adventure.
"I'm going to go explore the town, for something fun to do!" Pinkie began to hop away.
"Why? Don't you want to hear the story?" Spike asked her.
"Nah, I already know what happened. At this point, it would just be old news. In other words, boooring!"
"How could you possibly, know? We haven't told anypony, yet!" Spike inquired, confused.
"I was there too, silly! See? I took pictures!" She bounced around and showed them all several photos, including Spike fighting Discord.
They all rolled their eyes and laughed, as she left, being her usual self.
"So, anyway…" Spike told the story, and Fluttershy helped.
They left out the part about their relationship, since they weren't ready for anypony to know, yet.

A week later…
It was early evening in Ponyville, the sky not yet darkened. Twilight was studying, as usual, while Spike was using the bathroom, upstairs. He skipped down the steps, into the living room. He checked himself out in the mirror, and straightened his bow tie.
"Looking good, Spike." He thought. He was dressed in a tux, for a special occasion. He had plans, for this Friday night.
Twilight looked up after hearing him go down the stairs, and noticed his snazzy, dressed up appearance. "Where are YOU going? You don't usually, dress up." She said. Considering they lived together, the unicorn knew him well. He didn't respond at first, but it dawned on her, what he might be going to do. "Are you going to see, Rarity?"
Spike looked surprised, since he had forgotten all about his previous crush on the fashionista. "What? No, I'm going on a date with Fluttershy." The dragon responded, smirking at Twilight's reaction.
"Wh-What?! When did…You know what, I don't even care, anymore." She muttered, returning to her book, in disbelief.
"There's a lot of things, you don't know about me, Twilight." Spike revealed, stepping out into the approaching night, and closing the door behind him.
For the moment, everything was fine, but all wasn't as it seemed, in their 'Distorted World'.
