Rainbows and Butterflies

Epilogue

Fluttershy hummed softly as she chopped some carrots for Angel. Behind her she heard the door slam. The familiar voice of her wife chimed through the house.

"I'm home, everypony!" she said.

Fluttershy felt a brush of wind as Rainbow aproached her from behind.

"Sorry I'm late, Shy. The weather team and I had to plan for next week and we got into an argument."

"Oh no," Fluttershy said, never looking up from her cooking, "That's awful. I hope no one is hurt."

"Nah," Rainbow shook her head, "It'll all blow over tomorrow. What's for dinner? And where's Thundershy and Lightning Dash?"

"Hayburgers and hayfries. Your favorite. Oh, the kids are at Twilight's," Fluttershy explained, "She is teaching the Cutie Mark Crusaders, well, Crusaded, how to babysit and the kids are her test subjects."

"Ooh that's a challenge for the young mares. I can barely contain our foals myself," Rainbow chuckled and planted a kiss on Fluttershy's cheek.

................

The pegasi, after a long year of living apart, but together, have finally decided to live together with a compromise. That compromise is that they get a home that is both in the sky and on the ground.

A portion of the house rested upon the ground while another part floated into the sky. Up there was the bedroom that the married couple shared.

Coming upon their third year of marriage, Twilight offered to use her alicorn magic to give them two foals, which Fluttershy carried. A filly, Thundershy, and a colt, Lightning Dash, both of which are pegasi.

Thundershy was a shy filly, taking after Fluttershy. She had a rainbow mane in the style of her mother's and a pink coat.

Lightning Dash was an outspoken young colt, taking after Rainbow Dash. He had a spiky, red mane, with an orange streak. It stood up on all ends. His coat was as white as snow.

....................

"Mom, Momma! We're home!" the chime of the young voices drifted into the house.

"In here, sweethearts," Fluttershy answered from the kitchen.

The family sat down at the dinner table as the last of Celestia’s sun kissed the hills.

“Best family ever,” Lightning Dash declared. The mares nuzzled noses as the children smiled in delight.
