Epilogue

The Pegasus pony landed on the ground with a hard thump, deep in the Everfree forest. Surprise’s eyes shot open and she leapt to her hooves.

“Who’s there?” She called out, taking up an aggressive stance.

She watched as her visitor trotted into view. She couldn’t help but ease off when she saw who it was. Surprise cried out in joy as she threw herself at the new comer’s hooves.

“Master!” Surprise called out. “I knew you would come to me!”

Legion stared blankly at the pony, but said nothing, instead he reared up and kicked the bowing pegasi squarely in the jaw, sending her flying back into a tree and landing with a hard thump. Surprise hit her head hard, sliding down and collapsing on the ground before her.

“M... master!” Surprise called out. “W... why are you doing this?”

Legion said nothing as he approached her. He stopped before her. “We remember Surprise. We don’t need you.” He reared up again and brought his hooves down upon her.

“Master! No!” Surprise called out.

She knew nothing more.
