Epilogue
Crystals surrounded her. Everywhere the young girl looked was the same clear crystal. She laid at the room's center, her slim teenage form motionless as she waited on her back. Her skin was a shimmering ivory, a perfect counter to the pitch black dress she wore, the garment's skirt coming down to just past the knees, the edges lightly frayed. Its sleeves looked to have been ripped off as only tattered remains held the top of the dress to her shoulders. Her hair was the same shade of black, short waves that came down to the girl's shoulders. Her most striking feature was her eyes, a pair of golden pupils surrounded by darkness as they stared blankly at the ceiling of her prison.
For days she had been like this, staring at the empty blue sky projected on the crystal ceiling like a massive television screen. A gnawing hunger ate at her, but there was nothing she could do to sate it. All she could do was stare at the sky. That and try to figure out how she ended up in this situation. That had been a fruitless task, for no matter how hard she tried she just couldn't bring the answers to herself.
A dull and empty sigh escaped her lips as she lamented that. Then, something caught her attention. At first, she thought it was some giant bug that decided to crawl across the display from outside her prison, but that was quickly disproven when it moved into view again. It was a massive rectangular devise with comparatively small antenna sticking out of one end. The image became shaky as the display suddenly changed perspective, briefly showing a massive pile of wreckage by a lake before showing a large purple face. The face seemed to belong to a young girl, her purple eyes hidden behind loose fitting glasses.
The girl in the crystal studied the giant as she seemingly did the same to her prison.
"Can you hear me?" the trapped girl asked, her voice weak and dry as it echoed off of the walls. "Who are you?"
The display turned dark as the giant put the girl's prison in her pocket.
"Hey! Don't do that! I don't like the dark! Please tell me you can hear me! Who are you!?"
A moment of silence, then the girl curled in on herself, tears rolling down her cheeks as she sniffled out one last question. One that would not receive an answer for a quite some time.
"Who am I?"
And we are done! This has been a wild ride and I want to thank everyone that followed up to this point. You guys are all awesome and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I also want to thank my detractors (as weird as that might sound) since its thanks to you that I can see my weaknesses and try to overcome them to become a better writer. Not gonna lie, I did not think this fic was going to be as massive as it turned out when I started it. 63 chapters!? Seriously?! That's not counting the pro and epilogues either. Hopefully the next stories in this universe won't be this massive. (I like to sleep T-T) Now that this is done, I can focus on Gold Vine's story and the sequel to Winter Aria (A fic that takes place in the same universe but at a radically different time). Hopefully, those will do as well as this did if not better. Till my next project, Ciao

Wait, wait, wait... is that SCI-TWI?
Also, lovely ending to a great story. Kudos to you!
Wait, is that a sequel hook?!
...if any of those stories are one-offs...or side stories...or nothing this epic then perhaps. ...oh, fluff/smut, either of those should be quick...unless you're really into the couple.
Ah, time for one of my favorite things in literature.
Unintended consequences.
You stay away from Twilight, Lily... I'm warning you...

Yay!
Damn these SQL hooks always get me! Can't wait to see what happens in book 3 and how it includes everything.
A.P. this is one of the best sequels I have read in a long time and I'm glad I put all my time and effort to try to catch up since the very first story. Can't wait to see what you do for the next story in this trilogy as well as any other projects you have plan.
Take care

This is going to be wild!
The Golden Trail is up if you're interested. Just to warn you, it's a lot more intense than this story is. Hell, it's the first mature fic I've put up so far and the only one that has more than one warning tag. The first chapter even comes with a warning! This is going to probably be the closest thing I get to writing a Grimdark for a while.

Sorry, but I hate in between stories. Thanks for mentioning it though, but I'll stick with the main series.

Fair enough. Just thought I'd bring it up if you were interested. Not to give away too much, it does add a bit more world building to this universe, such as the specialty of the Stone Family mentioned in Gaps as well as how Gold Vine became Lieutenant of the Crystal Guard for the Crystal Empire. It also shows this universe's of the Season Six finale. While it's not necessary to read it to follow the main stories in the series, it will answer a lot of the questions that may come up.
Well, this story certainly was a ride well worth taking. The first story was really refreshing, a story where the central characters were those you rarely see in such stories. Vinyl and Tavi were not unexpected, they do tend to show up in Anon-a-Miss fics, but Derpy? That was a surprise to be sure, and Lightning Dust even more so. Usually she just shows up as an antagonist.
And then came this continuation, which was a treat. Seeing the girls enter Equestria (another rarity) and having shenanigans there was wonderful, and Lily was a wonderful antagonist whom, despite being unquestionable, unambiguously evil... you could still, even if not sympathize, at least understand in her love for her daughters, and her trap to ensnare her daughters-to-be was damn near impossible for them not to fall for, given their situation.
That being said, there was a lot of, for lack of a better term, DBZ-ness in this story. Especially in the final arc. There there had been a lot of training, a lot of showing what the new cast could do against the mooks, but in the end all their newfound and trained powers were effortlessly brushed aside by the villain and it's up to Goku/Pinkie/Sunset to pull hyperbolic time chamber and a powerup out of nowhere to win the day, which was a bit of a letdown after all the other girls got hyped up so much as well.

Good thing I'm planning to do a sequel to this. Since Sunset and Pinkie have reached their peaks, it'll leave the rest of the team with plenty of time to catch up.
I can't wait for part 3 of this glorious series! Right up there with L.A.P's HIVE series for how developed the worlds and magic are!
Can’t wait till the sequel
