As Luna stared out the window of Twilight's castle, her son Rainius came up to her. "Hey," He greeted her.
"Hey," She replied.
"You gonna be alright?" He asked her, concerned.
"Heavy is the crown we wear, son," She said. "Loss is not something new for me. Though the loss of my dear sister is probably the most hardest loss I'll ever go through." They both turn and look at Galaxy as they were saying goodbye to all the creatures that had assisted them in the battle with the bat syndicate.
Sunburst comes up to them. "She's gonna be around for a long time, isn't she?" He asked Rainius, looking at Galaxy.
"A very long time," Rainius replied. "I’m glad she has you."
Sunburst smiles. "Should I start calling you dad?" He asked.
Rainius shook his head. "No," He answered.
Sunburst laughs, then Galaxy runs into Rainius’s arms and Starlight joins them.
"Hey," Starlight says. Starlight then takes Galaxy’s hoof and puts it on her cheek to listen to Galaxy’s thoughts. "Yeah, we’re all gonna be together now." As Galaxy hugs Starlight, Rainius has a vision of Galaxy grown up. She’s with Sunburst and they are happy together and him and Starlight were in the vision as they join Galaxy and Sunburst. Rainius smiles as he sees Galaxy grown up and happy. That's all he could want for his daughter. Was to see her happy. He smiled at Starlight.
Later that day, Rainius and Starlight were in the meadow. "I wanna show you something," Starlight says.
"What is it?" He asked. Starlight uses her magic and shows Rainius her thoughts and memories of their time together from the first time they met to everything that’s happened to up to now. "How did you do that?"
"I’ve been practicing," She replied. "Now you know, no creature’s ever loved anyone as much as I love you."
"There’s one exception," Rainius says. Starlight nods understanding that he feels the same for her and they kiss. "Can you show me again?"
Starlight smiles and chuckles. "We got a lot of time," She answered.
"Forever," Rainius replied.
"That sounds exactly right to me," Starlight said. "... Forever."
Rainius and Starlight kiss once again. "And then we continued blissfully into this small but perfect piece of our forever," Rainius narrated as he closed the book. Then he looked down at his daughters. Galaxy was now seven years old and full-grown. Next to her was her little sister, Athena who was now two years old and also a bat Alicorn. Athena was the name of Rainius's grandmother who was the Alicorn goddess of war and wisdom, but she died long before he was born.
"Wow, daddy, that was an amazing story!" Athena said.
"I told you it would be," He responded. Then Starlight came into the room.
"Mommy!!" Athena exclaimed as she galloped/waddled over to her.
"Hey Atti," Starlight greeted her daughter by her nickname. She picked her up and put her on her back. Athena wrapped her arms around Starlight's neck. Starlight giggled. She went up to Rainius. "And how is my handsome King doing?" She said as she kissed him.
"Why, I'm doing fine, malady," He replied romantically before he went in and kissed her. Athena stuck her tongue out in disgust as they kept kissing. Starlight put Athena down next to Galaxy. "We have big news."
"What is it?!" Athena asked anxiously. Her tail wagging like crazy.
"We're having a baby!!" Rainius and Starlight said in unison. The two sisters looked at their parents for a moment before turning to face each other and squealed in excitement.
Starlight chuckled. "Girls, girls!" She said, getting them to calm down. "We don't know if it'll be a boy or a girl, but I hope you two will love it just as much as it will love you."
"Of course we will!" Galaxy said. "You can count on us!!"
As Rainius watched his two daughters he couldn't help but shed a tear as he looked at his family and saw a bunch of happy faces. This was all he could ever want and as he glanced over to his wife who he loved with his life, he thought about what the future holds and how no matter what happens, they would get through it together. Then that word replayed in his head. Forever. That sounded quite alright to him. Forever… and forever… and forever.
The End
