Epilogue

Twilight raced towards the gym in town, she and her friends safely restored to their normal size, kissing the ground in gratitude. The counterpotion had been limited in supply and they had just had enough to apply to themselves. She spotted Rainbow Dash and Applejack wiping their brows as they walked out of the gym together; Rainbow was still holding a cider bottle. "Hey...guys!" Twilight found it difficult to address the pony whose insides she had just inhabited.

"Oh hey Twilight, where've y'all been today?" Applejack asked cheerily.

"Just sorting some stuff out in the castle, you know...I'm so happy to see Rainbow Dash back to her normal self." Twilight smiled and gestured silently to Rainbow to chat to her privately.

Rainbow turned to her fellow athletic friend: "Well Applejack, that was a good workout. I'll get back to my usual best soon, and then you'd better be worried haha". The pair exchanged muscle flexes and then Applejack trotted off. "Oh thank Celestia you're okay, Twi!" Rainbow hugged her friend and met her gaze. "So what happened in there?" She looked down at her own belly curiously as she sipped her cider.

"I'm afraid Chrysalis had managed to cause some trouble inside your body. Don't worry, it wasn't something you ate - anyway with Discord and Sta- with Discord's help I've sent her to another dimension." Twilight, breathing out heavily, prepared herself now: "I have to apologise though, Rainbow Dash. I may have cured your condition but I fear I may have hurt you unintentionally."

"Huh?"

"While I was inside your brain I was able to control a drea- "

"Twilight, who cares? I'm totally over it. Whatever you did, it worked - just please don't make me eat any flowers again." The pair laughed happily and began walking down the street. "So what was it like in there? It's all gross isn't it..."

"Actually, no...it's quite vibrant and full of life hehe...I guess my advice to you, to keep it that way, is to listen to your inner voice now and then." Twilight couldn't help smirking to herself as she thought of Mayor Wellwisher, not only hearing this now but also knowing it was referring to her.

"Okay, whatever you say!" After thanking her friend again, Rainbow parted ways with Twilight and flew up to her Cloudominium. As she flew, she looked around and took in the surroundings - but narrowly avoiding a bird yet feeling a sharp feeling in her right ear at one point - and she looked down on the small ponies below. Ah, everypony looks so small from up here...that's cos you're the best, Rainbow... "...wait a second." She sat on her doorstep and widened her eyes. "Small ponies...I'm the best... 'full of life'?! That dream...I should've let Twilight explain!" Panicky, she went to her room and had a shower, lost in her thoughts again as her mind wandered.

Princesses Celestia and Cadence flew into the enormous blue ear at speed. The hairs and earwax was everywhere, and Celestia seemed disgusted. “Why would Eevies even want to dwell in a place like this?” she asked rhetorically.

Cadence shook her head, “they may well surprise us. If your sister was telling the truth, it will be worth it anyway, to see this magnificent place inside young Rainbow.”

Celestia rolled her eyes, “yes, I know. She’s gone on about it enough.”

They followed Luna’s directions which led them down the canal, and after a series of twists and turns they arrived at the brain. To her horror, it was completely empty and there was no sign of a city anywhere; just a brain and cerebral matter, with electricity shooting out and little sign of civilisation. Cadence laughed, “oh dear – I guess your sister can’t control her own dreams!” After a sigh of disappointment, the two princesses headed back out the way they’d come. The citizens, meanwhile, sniggered as they removed their perfected camouflage spells amidst their laughter.
