16 Years Later
It has been 16 years since Sergeant Paul Jackson and his wife, Jessica Ann Jackson was transported from the Earth world to Equestria. Since then, Jessica gave birth to their second child, a colt they named Lightning. They lived in the same house that Princess Celestia gave to them as a ‘Welcome to Equestria’ gift.
Their daughter Brianna, having graduated a year early from her high school, began saving to open up her own pottery business. She still lived with them due to her trying to cut back on expenses of renting an apartment.
The Princess every now and then stops by to check up on how they were doing. Jackson about every other day thanks Twilight and Rainbow Dash for all they helped him with since he first came to Equestria. Of course they said it was no problem at all but to Jackson, it was the greatest help of all anypony could ask for.
Jackson through the years has worked his way up to be Sheriff of Ponyville. He still carries the rank of Sergeant and wears it proudly. He doesn’t wear his combat uniform anymore but does sometimes on Nightmare Night as a tradition for the special holiday that seemed similar to Halloween in the Earth world . The rest of his combat gear including his M4 and knife and pistol, have all but been locked away. These were the only firearms that exist in Equestria and wouldn't want the destruction it carries to get into the hooves of another.
His wife has since started her own bakery and has merged with Sugarcube Corner, in turn, turning up tons of profit.
Their son, Lightning is on his second to last year in his high school and plans on carrying on the image of his father. Although he dreams someday that he get the chance of joining the loyal Equestrian Marines.
Their children were never aware of where they originally came from. Jackson and Jessica enjoyed their new lives in Ponyville so much; Earth just vanished away from them and forgot all about it but remembers from time to time. There just never was a better way to enjoy a life than right here, in the peaceful land of Equestria.
Author’s Note: I want to thank you all for reading my first ever complete fan-fic! *fanfare* But back to seriousness, I want to thank all of you who has taken the time to read and give me tips on writing. Without them, I wouldn’t be writing as much as I do now and would have probably quit. Anyways what I want to get at is I might make a sequel to this story which will follow Jackson’s son Lightning. Let me know in the comments what y’all think! Thanks!
