The collapse of the universe
Chapter 15: The End?
100 years later
“I just hope that someday, we will meet again.”
Celestia finished reading, and closed a large brown book labeled: “Autobiography of Princess Sparkle Tome I: The unicorn years”.
She was in the Canterlot throne room, together with six fillies. As she closed the book, she said.
“And that’s how the evils hanging over pony kind were defeated.”
"Wow, that was awesome Princess!” A unicorn colt with a night blue coat and a silverfish mane exclaimed.
On his flank was an image of a crescent moon and three shooting stars.
“Yeah I agree with Moon Shower.” An earth pony mare with a white coat and yellow mane backed him up.
Her cutie mark were two lemon circles, covered with powder sugar.
“It’s really hard to believe that something so amazing actually happened.” A pegasus colt with a grass green coat and light brown mane stated.
A silver goblet, with a golden snake coiled around it was seen on his rump.
“Princess Sparkle never talked about this with me.” A unicorn mare said, her head and ears dropped.
Her coat was gray, and her mane was black, with three red locks. Her cutie mark was a phoenix with spread wings.
“Don’t worry so much Crimson Ash. You know that parting with her friends was very hard for her. It’s been a long time since she last saw them.” A purple pegasus mare, with an orange and yellow striped mane comforted her friend.
Her flank bore the image of three golden rings. That turned crimson’s frown upside down.
“Woow…Those guys were really cool.” A light pink earth pony mare with a chrome mane, and a cutie mark in the form of a magnifying glass with a question mark in it, was gazing at several of the window panes of the hall.
She adored three in particular.
One was the image of the metal Fiddlesticks swinging his scythe at Discord. The second was of Klastanar striking a pose, and a zergling hanging from the blade on his left arm. The third was of Rengar and Kha’Zix slashing at each other in combat. There were a few other window panes. Annie, Fiddlesticks, Hecarim, Mordekaiser, Shaco and Nocturne were shown in pares in three different panes. There was one showing Discord, Chrysalis and the zerg, and another, bearing the image of the protoss ships.
“Yes, they truly were remarkable.” Celestia said, before addressing all of the fillies.

“Crimson Ash, Moon Shower, Riss, Melody Goldheart, Citronade and Clue Less, as you know, you are the new bearers of the Elements of Harmony. If a threat ever rises against Equestria, you are the ones, who will ensure out safety. I understand that that is a great responsibility for several young fillies, that’s why I wanted to teach you about our old allies. So that if one day they return, you to be able to work with them.”
All of the fillies looked up at the sun goddess with determined expressions as she talked.
“But remember…” The Princess continued. “…as important as this is, you must cherish your friendship and help it bloom. My faithful student once said that the fate of Equestria did not depend on her making friends. She learned that that was the very opposite of the truth. I hope that you learn it as well.”
Each of the fillies looked at each other with understanding smiles.
“Would you like to join me for a walk through the statue garden?” Celestia asked them.
They all nodded excitedly.
It was a lovely day outside. The Princess told them the stories about several of the statues.
While they were walking, all of a sudden a purple portal appeared in front of them. A giant red and purple creature with green eyes emerged from it. Its horns and the spiky appendages on its back reminded the alicorn of the zerg. The fillies quickly hid behind their ruler, as the creature charged at them. Everypony winced for a moment.
All of a sudden it stopped, making a ‘gulp’ sound.
‘Did it swallow something?’ Celestia thought, because she did not see anything.
It started to laugh proudly. But in a moment it stopped, and the ‘uh-oh, something’s wrong’ look appeared on its face. Strange grumbling sounds could be heard coming from its stomach. As they got louder, they started to sound like…cawing crows.
Suddenly the monster exploded.
The fillies screamed as guts, body parts and blood rained on top of a slender bipedal figure. Its limbs were sticks, connected to purplish hay bags. It bore a carved pumpkin as a head, and held a scythe in his left hand. The small ponies shivered in fear as the mysterious person took a deep breath and spoke in a cheerful tone.
“Damn I’ve been waiting to do that!”
Not certain if her now wide eyes were deceiving her, Celestia uttered questioningly in disbelief.
“Fiddlesticks…?”
The scarecrow faced her, and bowed while addressing her.
“Hello your majesty. It’s been a while.”
Several more purple portals opened up behind him, and packs of nightmarish creatures poured out of them. The Harbinger of doom chuckled, as more portals appeared next to him. These were blue, and more bipedal figures came out.
There were some familiar faces. First came out Mordekaiser, Hecarim and Nocturne. Following them were Nasus, Renekton and a blond girl wearing a jester outfit consisting of red/black hat, top and pants. She held two daggers, and had a slightly maniacal look in her eyes. Next came out two women in metal armor. One had a spear and a shield, while the other held a sword and a shield. After them came three more. A man with long white hair. He wore a horned helmet and armored pants, and carried a large two-handed sword. The other two were a man and a woman. Both looked pretty much the same. Each wore a set of green pants, the woman had a top, their eyes were blindfolded and their forearms were bandaged. They also had long brown ponytails. The man struck a pose, balancing on one leg, and the woman jumped and balanced with one arm on his shoulder, both looking at the charging enemies.
Lastly came out a woman wearing a dark purple dress. Her long hair was a darker purple. She was followed by a familiar giant burning bear. Her hands erupted in black flames as she addressed the monsters.
“You wanna play too? That’ll be fun!...”
