Joy of Celebration Epilogue

The trio walked out of Freddy Fazbear on Christmas eve. They were all exhausted, however one of them had a bit of custard on her face. As they walked along the road. Sweetie Belle turned towards Scootaloo. "What did Sunset and Freddy have you do?"

"Clean the dining area and bathrooms. How about you? What's with the custard?" asked Scootaloo.

===================
EARLIER THAT DAY

Freddy addressed the kids. "Alright kiddies time for our next party game and yes it involves those pies Chica told you not to eat. Hey Sweet Tooth the clown come on up we got a present for you."

Sweetie Belle walked up dressed like a clown and putting on a forced smile. Freddy gave her a card and told her to read it aloud. "Merry Christmas we give you joy and...custard pies? Let me have them." She said but knew where it was going.

"You heard her kids and remember bonus points for a headshot!"

Sweetie could've sworn but some of the audience members were students from CHS.

======================

"And what's more awkward is Rarity made me that silly outfit. At least we're talking more. My Dad nearly popped a vein and my Mom won't make me her holiday cookies."

Scootaloo scoffed "You think that's bad? My parents nearly wanted to take me to Australia with them but Surprisingly Sunset, Rainbow, and Principal Celestia managed to convince them to let me stay. My aunt Holiday didn't stop crying for hours when I told her and Auntie Lofty. In addition to Freddy's, Rainbow is now acting more like coach Spitfire and giving me drills."

They both turned to Apple Bloom. They know what punishment she was given. Additional chores on the farm, and a big spanking from her grandmother. They were still allowed to attend the holiday party but under the condition they clean up afterwards. At Freddy's she was forced to dress up in a bear costume and stand outside with a sign. It was surprisingly warm in that costume but many CHS students either taunted her or threw stuff at her. All they knew is they had to put up with this and detention for the rest of the school year.

"Next time you want to rope us into a scheme involving the internet, remind to say no." Said Sweetie Belle.

"Yeah, and remind me to punch you." Said Scootaloo.

"Duly noted." Groaned Apple Bloom.

=====================

Foxy walked into parts and service. Sunset told him she and Mike had a surprise for him. As he stepped in he saw something leaning against the wall. It was covered in a sheet. He stepped closer to it. "Well that's peculiar."

Suddenly the sheet let out a giggling sound. Foxy's eyes widened. "That laugh. It can't be...Mangle?"

Foxy pulled the sheet and there standing before him was a white vixen animatronic with a pink muzzle and underbelly. It looked at him with a kind smile. Foxy noticed the tag attached to her. 'To Foxy From Mike and Sunset. Pirates Cove is coming back soon.'

Foxy was so happy he embraced the vixen. "I missed you so much my pearl of the sea."

Mangle returned the hug. "I missed you too my swashbuckling sweetheart."

==============

Sunset sat outside on the porch of Applejack's house. She was sending a message to Twilight in the journal saying she's slowly regaining the trust of her friends and that she's at the Christmas party with everyone along with a special someone that helped her. Ever since that night at Freddy's the whole school showered her with apologies, gifts, and even money to finally get her own apartment. Though, those were nothing compared to the best gift she got.

"My dearest friend." sang a nearby voice. It was Mike the young night guard .

"If you don't mind."
"I'd like to join you by your side."

"Where we can gaze into the stars."

Sunset joined in on singing as she stood up and walked up to him.
"And sit together"
"now and forever"
"for it is plain as anyone can see"
"We're simply meant to be."

The two shared an embrace so warm it could melt snow. Not too far away a hooded figure watched. "What happens in the dark always comes to light and sometimes what comes out emerges something just as bright as the light."

The hooded figure opened a portal and walked in before closing it.
