The trail of blue torches was long. The group had to stop multiple times to let lazy but fashionable Elusive catch his breath. They crossed the orchard, crossed the fields and hills beyond, to a little cabin not far from their campsite. 
"Whoa," Pizza gasped, checking over the house. "I'm not scared, of course, but this cabin does seem like a place ghosties   would want to hang out in." Blue light filled the windows, giving a sign that there was something inside. 
"Let's get this over with!" Elusive said, walking to the broken door. "The more beauty sleep I miss, the less handsome I become! Now that is a tragedy!" The Unicorn reached out to the door, only to be stopped by his sister.
"Elusive! We have to take caution, we don't know what's in there! It could be a dangerous monster, or another Wick, or ghosts, or.." 
"Yeah yeah Scarlett, I get it!" Elusive carefully opened the door, so carefully the door didn't squeak. 
Zach entered first, then the twins, then Hummingbird with Ruby on his back, then Pizza. The blue flashes got brighter as they approached what seemed to be a study. Then, Zach saw Sundown's long hair. 
"There he is!" Ruby whispered, jumping off Hum's back and crawling under a desk. Zach observed that Sundown was still asleep, mumbling. He tossed and turned every now and then, but otherwise he was still. That's how the zebra knew he was okay. 
The group crept into the study, seeing Sundown lay on a table, but no ghosts or creatures. Ruby ran onto Elusive's back, and that's when they saw them. Two ghosts faced down on Sundown, both with smiles. One had bangs, and a straight mane and tail. The other a mohawk and messy tail. Sundown looked like a mixture of both. 
"Does anypony notice that those ghosties are Alicorns?" asked Pizza, pointing to their wings and horns. 
"I know who these ponies are!" Ruby exclaimed suddenly. "These are Sundown's parents! Princess Twilight Sparkle and Prince Leonardo!" 
"So that's Aunt Twily and Uncle Leo? That's cool!" Scarlett said. 
"If you know these spirits from another realm, I guess they can know we're here as well." Zach said. 
The ponies nodded, and they all stepped out of the shadows. The two ghosts looked at them, and they  yelled with joy.
"Oh my goodness, Scarlett, Elusive, Hum, Pizza, is that you? Oh, how much you've grown!" Twilight inspected each one of them. 
"Well," Leo said. "If they're here, we might as well wake Sundown." The ninja woke his son, who froze when he saw them.
"Who are you? What are you doing here, ghosts? What am I doing here?" Sundown demanded. 
"Son," Leo said. "How we've missed you." Twilight gave Sundown a big bear hug. 
"Mom, Dad? So you really are dead?" Sundown said. 
"Yes, honey." Twilight said. 
"How did you die?" Sundown asked. 
"It comes to this, does it?" Leo asked. "Well, you might as well know."
