Wayvern charged for Relius, and the fight began. The sporadic clashing of the two swords was broken by a shudder here and there from the Dragon upon which they stood heading for space. When they reached the outer limit of Equestria’s Atmosphere, Wayvern felt himself lighten a bit. Then he thew Harmonia into the air hoping that Relius would keep an eye on it. He did and Wayvern drew Hummingbird and thrust it hilt deep into Relius’ chest.
“Very Crafty,” Relius said. “A false Harmonia to distract me and the true one to seal me away… is that what you did?”
“Some mother buckers are always trying to ice skate uphill,” Wayvern said. The smugness on Relius’ face changed to confusion… then fear when he realized what Wayvern meant.
“No… You Wouldn’t… YOU DIDN’T.”
“I would, and I did.” the blood started seeping from Relius’ mouth and wound as the realization dawned on him that he was never returning. Then he fell over and flowed out of existence.
Twilight couldn’t believe it. His mother gave Wayvern the perfect opportunity to live like anypony else and he threw it away. He turned to them and for the first time ever genuinely smiled like he was happy. Ashes started to form and fly off his body in little flecks, but he was there smiling. Then, he fell. Twilight rushed to catch him.
“No, Wayvern!” Twilight said. She cupped his face as the flecks of ash started to get a little bigger. “I love you too much to let you go like this!”
“Twilight… I… did this… because… I love you… I couldn’t… let this… happen… again…” Flash stood next to him on the other side of Wayvern. “Flash… Do you… remember… your promise?”
“I do now thanks to you and Discord.”
“Please… keep it now” Wayvern looked at the other Contracters “and for the… rest of my friends… thank you… if you hadn’t… been there for me… I wouldn’t have… chosen this future…”
Twilight continued to cup his face as Wayvern faded to ashes and flew away on the breeze. Then Twilight notice that there was a breeze and that they returned to the Tree of Harmony. Twilight couldn’t really tell how she knew this… her eyes were too misty to see anything. Before long she found herself letting out the tears.

It had been three years since Wayvern gave his life for the universe. Twilight was having a picnic with her friends and Flash Sentry outside the Everfree Forest… outside the Everfree Forest… she couldn’t help but think of Wayvern. There was a grave set up where he was found three years before with his name written on it. Princesses Celestia and Luna would visit it weekly. Twilight and Flash would visit it Daily. It was time for the food when Twilight looked over at the grave and noticed somepony standing over it. They were wearing a cloak, so she couldn’t tell who it was, but then he looked to the sun and she had to walk over to him to ask him something.
“Why did you come here?” she asked.
The Stranger turned around. “This is where I belong.” He said with a smile.
