Rise of the Maximals

Epilogue

February/2014

The past two years has been among the happiest Sunset has ever had. With help from her friends, she earned the Spring Fling Crown, gained the attention she needed, and above all, gained a loving family at last. She still looked to the same caring faces of her friends since the day she met. By her Junior year, Sunset gained a new wardrobe. Nowadays, fitting her new jacket and boots, she wore a blue skirt and jeans. She has gained a driver's license, with a class allowing her to drive a motorcycle with restrictions.

Now there is still one piece of business to attend to. With Pinkie Pie being the party planner, the Apple Family providing food (especially their Fizzy Apple Cider), and Rainbow Dash being the captain of every sports team, Sunset managed a niche by providing tours to new or prospective students. Sunset looked at her Spring Fling portrait from two years ago. The next two years the crown has been taken by Rainbow Dash and Rarity respectfully. Sunset sighed, "You'll never forget that day."

"Sunset Shimmer," - Vice Principal Luna buzzed - "please report to the front foyer."

The fire-haired student walked to the front and cross her arms.

"So, ready to take another look at Canterlot High?"

The group she is tutoring today are once again Cosgrove, Chelsey, Diver, Zipper, and Cogsworth, now grown into their current proportions. Cosgrove approached her before handing Sunset an unusual item: a badge that resembled an MLP style pony head in an abstract red (without a further look it would've resembled a Smilodon).

"We sure are," - Cosgrove stepped back with a toothy grin - "Boss."

As they walk along the courtyard, music began to play.

Throughout the song, many pictures taken over the next two years were shown. One picture showed the Maximals at Sweet Apple Acres watching Sunset complete the horseback obstacle course (with a rule of third showing Cosgrove watching Big Mac mark her time. The next picture, taken with an underwater camera, showed them holding their breath, Diver giving a smirk. The next picture showed the Maximals with Hooflock as he prepared to graduate. The next picture showed them helping the Crusaders make Pipsqueak the student body president at Great Valley Elementary.

After the end of the song, the Maximals took notice of Fluttershy being harassed by Garble's gang. Cosgrove looked at Sunset, who motioned him with her eyes.

"You really suit your name quite well, Flutterdork!" Garble laughed before being poked on the shoulder, revealing the Maximals.

"Sunset said we should meet face to -" Quickly Cosgrove raised his fist and punched it at Garble, knocking him out cold.
