"Guys, this is a big mistake, it's not what you think, I just wanted ..." Stygian was uninterrupted by a scream from the starswirl. "ENOUGH STYGIAN! You steal our artifacts just to have all the power for yourself, as punishment you are exiled from equestria and the pillars FOREVER!" Said starswirl with great anger. Stygian was shocked, starswirl exiled him from Equetria forever and from the pillars, and worst of all, the others did not support him. "What kind of friend are you Stygian?" Rockhoof said seriously. "How dare you do this to us, we did nothing to you!" Meadowbrook said with disappointment. "You are an embarrassment to the pony speacies." said Flash magnus angrily. "We are very disappointed in you stygian." said Mistmane. Stygian was depressed, no pony supported him, he turned around to get out of equestria, he lost hope that some pony would help him ... "How dare you exile him without any explanation!" A voice startled Stygian, he turned his head to discover who said that, and it turned out to be ... "¿Somnambula?" Stygian said confused, but a part of him told him that there was hope, ironically why he said that was the pegasus of hope. "Somnambula,But you didn't see what he wants to do with our artifacts, it's clear he's a selfish pony "Starawirl said firmly. "That's not true, Stygian would never do something like that, there must be a logical explanation why he did what he did!" Somnambula said with anger. "Somnambula,It is not necessary to do this for me ... just leave it like that, I deserve it for what I did ... " Stygian said nervous and sad, somnambula when hearing that he despaired. "No way! My job is to keep hope in all equestria and I will not lose faith in you Stygian" Somnambula said Determinedly, Stygian fell for hearing that from the pegasus in good faith, as she was hardly ever angry. The others were also surprised by that unexpected somnambula anger, until starswirl asked. "Why are you supporting him, if I can tell" Starswirl said seriously. "Isn't it obvious, he's our friend, he was the one who brought us all together to defeat the mermaids of his town, he also distracted those creatures from the other dimension when we rescued the princesses, I admit that he surprised me that he has the artifacts, but that's not why I'm going to accuse him without him being able to explain " Somnambula said Firmly, everypony was surprised by those words, Starswirl looked at Stygian, who was more surprised than the rest, by one of the pillars he defended her, with a sigh he said. "Well stygian, tell us why you did it" Starswirl said regretfully. Stygian took a deep breath to explain and said "when you saved my town, I felt that I was not even part of you, since I was a scholar, after that day I investigated how I could be a hero like you,I wanted to be a legend like you, that's why when the princesses were kidnapped, I did not support your ideas, because when I reunited you,my destiny changed and that is why I was taking this, I was not doing it out of selfishness, I was doing it to be like you "he finished speaking. "See, I told you that Stygian would never do something so selfish" somnambula said seriously. the pillars were stunned, stygian admitted why he did it, starswirl was ashamed to accuse him unjustly. "Stygian, after admitting what you did and making me look like a fool, you are forgiven by all of us, we owe you a big apology" said Starswirl sadly. "yes, sorry for telling you that stygian, you are a great friend" said rockhoof "You were always part of our team, just no one told you," Meadowbrook said. "correcting what I said before, you are the greatest pride for the pony speacies." said Flash. "We are very proud to have a pony like you,stygian" said Mistmane. stygian for once all tonight I was happy "thank you guys, you don't know how glad I am to hear that" he said happily. the pillars gave the stygian a big hug, the rain stopped at once, after the hug, the pillars grabbed their artifacts and left, all but Stygian and Somnambula. "I'm very happy that everything ended well stygian!" She said with his usual joy. "By the way, why did you defend me, I know I'm your friend, but I feel like there's more to it than that" Stygian said confused. "It's because I love you, dummy" she said with a giggle, Stygian was shocked. "What-what-what, when-when-when!" "When you met us, I felt that there was something more than just friends, but I kept it hidden for the simple fact that we barely knew each other, so wait and now that I said it, stygian, do you love me well too" she said hopefully. Stygian didn't know what to say, but to be honest, he also had feelings for her and considering that she helped him with Starwirl he said "yes, somnambula, I love you too". Somnambula was so happy, she grabbed the Stygian tightly "YEEEES! I knew you felt the same" she kissed his whole face and on the lips, after that, she released him leaving a very flushed stygian. "Whoa, I didn't know you would kiss that well" he said. "Well, since we are a couple, what if I give you a nickname, you know...that's little chessy, i love you normal, but if i have nickname, i gonna to call you with that." she said happily. Stygian nodded and somnambula hugged him again gave him a kiss on the cheek, stygian is not a hero, but he is a good boyfriend, scholar and friend for somnambula, they stayed together until the sun came out and from under the shade they formed a heart with ponies. after that romantic moment, stygian and somnambula left together to catch up with the others "Who was going to say that after my" almost "exile, I was going to be the boyfriend of one of my best friends? Do you think they agree with this?" He said a little nervous that others did not approve. "Calm down styg, I'm sure they will approve, besides after what I said I think they should" she said with her usual calm. "Ha, you have already a nickname for me, huh? That was fast, but i like it...Hey, you don't have the feel what this is not needed to happen in frist place?" Stygian asked Somnambula and she answer."Nope, why?" She said with a innocent smile. "Oh, not reasson." Stygian said, Him and Somnambula still walking to see the others pillars and tell them the big news.
