The Eve of the war was celebrated amongst all; Ponies and Gryphons alike, sans those of elitist personality drank and ate together, forgiving and befriending each other. Talk of moving into Equestrian and Gryphon towns became common and things seemed as though the war had never happened and there was no hostility whatsoever. Things seemed to lighten up and the world as a whole seemed a happier place.
Talk of the new Alicorn was also a common occurrence, one that Celestia and Luna were interested in. Spike and Twilight had yet to return and they had not been seen since the fight between Spike and Hyperion. The Gryphons claimed Spike as their new king as were the rules regarding Royal death battles. They accepted Spike as their king, and ponies were excited to learn the ways of the Gryphons.
It had been three days since the war ended, and those three days had been spent finding and burying the dead. The celebration was to both celebrate the peaceful joining of the two species as well as lighten the heavy hearts of those who lost family in the war. The celebration took place in the Royal Hall of Canterlot, where the two sisters resided at the head of the table. Beside them were the still morbid and depressed Elements of Harmony, unperturbed by the end of the war. They all agreed that the only thing that would brighten their spirits was to see Spike and Twilight both happy and together. Little did they know, their wish would come true in a dazzling way.
Chatter filled the hall as the different conversations took place. Happy ponies and gryphons were enjoying themselves while the mourning guests were slowly gaining some happiness by the realisation that nopony or gryphon else would go through what they went through. Celestia and Luna sat side by side, Twilight’s friends gathered on either side of them. Celestia rose to her hooves and addressed the guests with a stomp of her hooves that echoed above the voices. She had their attention.
“Fillies, Gentlecolts and the Gryphon equivalent of both. It is with great pleasure that I announce the official joining of the species. Gryphons will have the option to live and work among ponies, including high class jobs such as joining the Royal Guard should you desire it. Also, Ponies are allowed to venture into Gryphon land if they wish, hopefully able to do the same should their new king ever return from wherever he has gone.” she declared. There were merry cheers in response to this and raised glasses, toasting the declaration.
“In addition, I would like to formally apologise to my Student, Twilight Sparkle and her Dragon, Spike. My judgement was poor in relation to the fragile nature of the previous relationship between Ponies and Gryphons. As a result, I made a lot of mistakes, and it pains me to realise how foolish I was. I could never ask for your forgiveness were you here with us at this time.” There was a solemn silence throughout the hall as the guests had nothing to say on the matter and respected the fragility of her statement.
“You know, it’s shit like this that makes me hate Canterlot perties.” a voice said from behind her. She turned around to see nopony there. She scanned the others for an answer and found Luna trying to cane her neck around to look behind her throne. “What about you, Twilight?” the voice asked. Twilight? Celestia thought, turning toward the throne completely. Twilight emerged from behind Celestia’s throne, revealing her new wings to everypony.
“We’ll have to make sure parties in the Misty Mountain aren’t as boring as this. I mean it was alright until my teacher here brought up shaky troubles that really have nothing to do with anything anymore.” she replied, smiling. Twilight stepped toward her teacher and rubbed her head long her neck, showing her that the sun princess was forgiven.
“Twilight, you’re an Alicorn?” Rainbow Dash asked in disbelief.
“For the fstest flyer in Equestria, she’s pretty slow on the uptake, huh?” the first voice spoke again, emerging from behind Luna’s throne. Everyone gasped in surprise at the drastic change Spike had made. They laid eyes on the golden dragon standing before them with his arms crossed.
“Spike… you’re… you’re a–.”
“Yep! I’mma BOSS!” he joked, chuckling afterward. Twilight chuckled along with him.
“But he knows that I’m the boss, right Spike?” Twilight challenged.
“Yes, Ma’am!” Spike replied in a lazed mock salute. “Oh, by the way, I have a little gift for everypony.” he added, taking a somewhat straight forward stance. He spread his arms wide and gave a loud clap. A golden wave spread out along with the sound and went through everyone in the hall. The Elements of Harmony grew brighter, and they found themselves adopting their original personalities. Pinkie’s changes being the most noticeable, with her mane and tail tangling up into cotton candy and her giddy grin and giggle returning with a vengeance.
“Last thing I’m going to do is let my friends live in darkness while we bask in the light.” he said. Twilight approached Spike and took her place beside him.
“Princess, Celestia. Meet your new allies; King Spike and Queen Twilight. We are the new rulers of the Gryphon Empire, now called the Royal Alliance." she declared. Applauding from the guests erupted as Princess Celestia and Luna were both rendered speechless. Amidst the loud noise, Twilight brought herself to Spike's attention and whispered into his ear.
"And honey, I'm pregnant."
This is good :)!!!!!! Now will their be a story after this us the question.....
2334082 It says so in the Author's notes.
The story was awsome, and i hope u upload a link to the new story once you start.
He kinda set up the fact of another part of this story given the last line. That line itself raises a lot of questions not only just how Twilight and Spike would handle parenthood but of other things like will the child or children(In case of twins should that be the writer's plan.) be half dragon and half pony, how many problems will arise that will cause problems for their children and them and lastly how big a party will Pinkie throw upon learning Spike got Twilight pregnant?
Typos...Typos EVERYWHERE @.@
make another chapter that gives us the link to the darkness that blinds when it comes out. leave the chapter in for about a week then delete it. that should get all of your previous readers to the next story in the series.
Another great chapter! While I'm happy how the story ended, with the name of the trilogy like it is, I get the feel that Mar will return to ask the new King and Queen and maybe the princesses for there help in he's upcoming war with the gods.
Do hope that is year's down the line though, everyone can use a much needed break from the war.
Is it a draconequus!? Is it!? Huh huh huh!?
one of these "what if..."moments when i saw the final line :3
2334290 Don't worry my story shall fix this mix up
fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/061/9/b/cry__my_body_is_ready_by_kiwa007-d5wqbha.gif
2334290 Wait... With ALL that CHAOS from the war and stuff, why isn't Discord free? What on earth is going on with him? I hope the sequel brings that into light.
2334090 How do the Draconequus come into play? Where was Discord during all of this? Just wondering...
2334529 Just Author's example/comparison.
2334834 Coincidence.
"Honey, I'm pregnant."
"FFfffffffffffuuuuuuuuuu-"
I liked this epilogue, though my first question to Spike would be "Why the fuck do you keep walking from behind stuff?"
I've got a feeling Grimm will become an evil bastard on par with those Accel World and Sword Art Online. For the love of God, don't turn him into one of those!
wooooooo more story to come! so excited
2334321 That would be something.
*Reads ending*
....
*Jaw drops*

2336711 My OC was originally based off of him.
And here we....GO! Hey man, I got two hybrids you can use for your OC's of Spike and Twilght's kids if you wish And badass, but darkness still extises, not everything can be rainbows and sunshine. There are still so many questions to be asked, so now two different Goddess rule two different countries, awesome, what of Discord though? Shit I'm so excited Remember......every creature has their sins
meh... personally i think this story went downhill after the first part
2337637 I never could follow that concept until now that you've compared it to what I've made.
And here I thought Dusk was going to stop Mar from meddling in the mortal world and prevent him from controlling it's events. If there's one thing I cant stand, its ethereal beings trying to control history and the outcomes of certain events. I Really, REALLY hoped that Dusk would like, reach into Mar's bag of souls, pull out Shining Armour, and bring him back to life. I don't understand why Mar thinks certain things HAVE to happen a certain way, with no alternatives. Oh, wait! New story? THERE'S STILL HOPE FOR SHINING ARMOUR!!! (hint hint)
cant wait for next story ;javascript:smilie('');
I want to see Spike reaction after that last statement. He must be in total shock or not surprised at all.
Overall this was a really good story! 9/10
`There are only Two episodes on this series right? then why in Far from home it says NOT PART OF THE DARKNESS TRILOGY, is there going to be a third one?
IF there is going to be a third one YES if not... Oh well still was freaking awesome!!!
Still i want to know what will happen with chrysalis will she find the love that she is looking????
that sounds interesting
2388013 your english is getting worse, mate.
NOT YET COMPLETE !!!!!!!!!!!
hehehe badassery level is high with this one
Holy shit I loved that ending!
It was really good, kinda rushed alittle but really f**king good!
Can't wait to the next story.
My only reaction was this:
"What the fuck just happened?" ._.
Spike, Twilight, Death, War, Princess Luna, Griffon King, Dr.Whooves, Sonic, Pinkamiena, THIS STORY HAS EVERY THING!!!
Best fanfiction ever but there should be a third book.
2497002 there will be. it's not a trilogy otherwise.
Wait so how did Spike get dark magic?... Also what happened when Spike ran away and how he meet the other dragons. Also do Death and Spike become good friends?? Will this be explained in book three?
2539463 most of it was explained in book 1. and as for Spike and death, read number 3.
it says incomplete. are there going to be more chapters?
2556516 no, sorry, fixed that. the nrxt story is up and running though.
Wow, very sudden, I like that everything turned out happily, at least for a while, but this could have really benefited from being much longer, and no war passes without scars, I can't imagine such an awful war could be just forgotten overnight without anyone upset.
Hey I dont know why but this story (though its complete and I've read every chapter) wont leave my fav box. Since its complete I'm going to remove it from my favs. I still really like the story and hope you understand
2646739 I do.
dark.... very dark......... no longer is it funny with all the dbz abridged references.... I don't like it, It is a good story and I enjoy your writing style, but this isn't my cup of tea. You do however deserve thumb ups no matter if it is to dark for me or not. Good work.
Actually I take that back. This is amazing and I like it a lot. Even though twilight and her friends did go down the proverbial rabbit hole It ended with a good outcome. Very well done.
