Chapter I. Thirty Years Later

It was a calm cold crisp autumn night. Twilight had just taken rule Over Equestria as she raises the moon for the night. Twilight Watched over the Ponies of Equestria while they nestled snug in their bed's sleeping the night away, after along days working in the light of King Spike's sun. Twilight stood out onto the Castle balcony, stretched her wings and started to take flight. Twilight Flew Over Canterlot and Ponyville looking down at the dark houses and empty streets lit up by the street lamps.

Twilight could understand why Luna would find ruling the night lonely, but to Twilight it made her feel closer to Luna, Being about during the day made Twilight feel more lonely even with her son Nightfall around. Ever Since the time Twilight Left Canterlot leaving her son with Spike And Scootaloo, Twilight was never there for her Nightfall. She missed all over his birthday's sending a card with some bits inside, Twilight felt that Nightfall was better off with out his mother feeling that she would make his life so much more worse. Everypony tried to tell Twilight otherwise but no one could get through to her, she just wouldn't listen to reason.

And When Nightfall was old enough he moved out to live in Ponyville and got a job working in Sweet Apple Acres Thanks to the generosity of Applejack, Fluttershy and their Daughter Rosie. Unfortunately during one of the summer's the Barn Caught fire killing Both Applejack and Fluttershy. Twilight attended the Funeral but ignored her son and dodged out his way. It hurt Twilight so bad to treat her son like that but She had it strongly fixed in her head that it was best if Nightfall had nothing to do with her. Since Nightfall had moved to Ponyville, Twilight moved Back to the Canterlot castle and slept in her old room where Luna used to sleep. it wasn't long until Twilight Heard of her son's wedding, she even got invite, but yet she still didn't go. And to this day Twilight has never met her son's Partner or their foal she didn't even know about her son's foal.

Soon Twilight reached her destination, the hill with Rainbow's, Rarity's, Applejack's and Fluttershy's graves were, their gravestone were the their thrones from the castle of friend ship, each Throne fell as the pony in question fell. Twilight saw Spike standing in front of the graves, Twilight silently landed behind Spike and started to slowly trot up next to him.

"Hello Twilight." Spike greeted Twilight coldly, catching Twilight off guard.

"Hi Spike." Twilight Stood next to Spike.

They both stood their in silence, moments past Before Spike Spoke up Aging. "So you got time to visit your friends?" Spike still spoke coldly towards Twilight to which she was used to by now.

"Why, who should I be visiting?" Twilight knew well who Spike was hinting at.

"How about your son. He's got so much to talk to you about, like his life for instance!" Spike glared at her.

"How about After visiting my friends, I go visit my wife." Twilight told Spike.

"You know you cant ignore Nightfall forever, when The master wants to reveal himself he'll-." Spike was interrupted by Twilight.

"Would you stop going on about this master, King Sombra was delusional and Rarity was sick her mind corrupted by dark magic. There's nothing else coming Spike, Why don't you go back to your sick wife?" Twilight spat

"Do you know what I will if means getting away from you I will. (Spike turns to the grave stones) Im sorry for this goodnight girls. Goodnight Princess." Spike refused to Call Twilight by her name, she was no longer the elder sister that he so fondly remembered.

"Goodnight Your Majesty." Twilight replied making Spike frown, before he took off back to the Canterlot Castle.

Twilight started to cry as she looked at the thrones and thinks about the time before Rarity losing her mind, before King Sombra and the death of her friends and tutor: Princess Celestia. Back when life was fun, carefree and the happiest Twilight had ever been, back When Twilight had to sneak into the Canterlot Castle to be with Luna.

Suddenly Twilight heard the sound of hooves steps behind her, Twilight turned Around to see who it was. To her surprise it was nightfall was slowly making his way towards her with a nervous look on his face. Twilight felt her stomach turn in on self, wrecked with guilt Twilight was about to leave until he called out making her stop.

"Mother wait!" Nightfall pleaded.

"What do you need? Money?" Twilight asked sounding cold.

"No forget damn money, I need to talk to you, There are things I need to say, may we talk?" Nightfall held his hoping his mother would agree.

Twilight thought this out in her head, mentally arguing with her self until one side of her head lost the battle. He at least deserves to talk to me, Twilight thought. "Very well, lets walk and talk, I don't want to do this in front of my friends." Nightfall nodded gratefully and followed his mum hoping he would be able to find answers.

Twilight and Nightfall started to walk through the through the Ever Free Forest, sweat dripped from the Twilight as she felt her heart beat rapidly scared of what her son had to say.

"Mum I just want you to know that im not angry at you, annoyed mostly. but I know that you kept your distance out fear that you might make it worse. and that the death of Mother was your fault, you should know I am thirty two years old and I don't look a day over twenty five. I will out live my Family friends and the ponies I love the most, it scares me very day I want to be able to talk to mum." Nightfall Watch his mum as thought about what he had just said.

Twilight still resisted as her mind was dead set on not being apart of nightfall's life. "No you would do better with out me in your life. I'll only make it worse, I'll ruin the life you've built for your self." Twilight argued

"No you wont! You have to stop to stop blaming your self I don't blame you, I've never blamed you. It was Rarity's fault, the Dark Magic inside her had effected her so bad it fooled everypony."

Twilight hanged her head low as a tear fell from her eye. "Your.... your right of course. Im so sorry I never meant to hurt you, only protect you." Twilight stroked her son check lovingly the only way a mother could. "My Baby Boy all grown up, I've always been so proud of how you've grown, im sorry that I wasn't there for when you were growing up."

"Its okay Mum, we have an eternity to catch up." Nightfall smiled warmly at Twilight.

Twilight and Nightfall stopped walking as reached the old Castle of the two sisters where Celestia and Luna where buried. Before entering the castle, Twilight pulled Nightfall into a deep hug that last for about two minutes. Twilight pulled away smiling warmly at her son once more before entering the castle with Nightfall by her side.

After visiting Luna, Twilight walked back to Ponyville with her son, they talked all the way back.

"I can't wait to tell you Everything!" Nightfall was just so happy to have his mum back.

"And I cant wait to hear all about it, but its a little late, why don't you come to the Canterlot Castle Tomorrow for lunch?" Twilight smiled genuinely excited to hear about her son's life.

"Can I bring Ace?" Nightfall exclaimed energetically.

"Sure, is he your son?"

"No he's my Husband." Nightfall snickered.

Twilight look wide eyed in shock at her son "You mean your gay?"

"Yeah. What's wrong with that?" Nightfall asked defensively.

"Oh nothing, it just took me by surprise that's all." Twilight reassured him.

Nightfall calmed back down "can I also bring our daughter Crimson, she's always wanted to meet you."

"Sure, I cant wait to meet her, Im sure she's lovely" Twilight answered.

They stopped out walking finally Reaching Nightfall's house, Twilight stood outside with Nightfall about to say their goodnights. "Before we say our Goodnights, there's one thing that's bugging me how did you know I was going to be at the graves of my friends?"

"Spike told me you do it every weekend Night ." Nightfall answered honestly.

Twilight smiled as she heard her son's answer. "Of course he did, that crafty drake I must thank him later."

Twilight and nightfall said there Goodnights, as Nightfall entered his closed his door, Twilight left to go back to work, making sure the Ponies of Equestria are safe but both were feeling better then ever.

Spike landed outside the front gates of the Canterlot Castle, as Spike walked through front gates Twilights Bat Pony guards bowed. Spike made his way to the Front door's of the castle to be met by more of Twilights Bat Pony guards.

"King Spike?!" the Bat Pony Guard bowed.

"Please stand down." Spike ordered in slightly begging tone.

The Bat Pony stood to attention. "Thank you, your Majesty you shouldn't be out this late."

Spike snaps at the Guard. "Im a big Drake I can look after my self, and don't think its your place to say is it?"

The Bat pony frowns as fear kicks in. "No, sorry your Majesty."

Spike enters the Castle and walks down the corridor his head filled with thoughts from the last fifty years. Soon Spike reached the door to his room, guards bowed as Spike entered. Spike got into the bed and sat up stroking Scootaloo's mane as he watched her sleep. Spike starts to cry looking at his wife pale, sick looking skin, Scootaloo had been diagnosed with a fatal life threatening illness. Scootaloo can no longer fly or walk her heart cant handle the pressure so she has to be pushed around in wheelchair. Scootaloo was hooked up to a Blood bag and iv drip. her heart rate monitor all Spike could hear was the slow beat of his wife's heart.

Scootaloo has at the least two years left to live!

Spike's sobbing starts to wake Scootaloo up from her slumber making Spike dry his eyes quickly making sure Scootaloo doesn't know and failing.

"Don't tell me you've started crying over me again?" Scootaloo ask in a raspy tone.

"Nah just got something in my eye." Spike lied on the spot.

"Good, I don't want any Pony or Dragon getting all emotional on me now." Scootaloo pulls Spike in for a light couple of kisses.

"Scoot's can I ask you something stupid?"

"Sure anything."

"Are you scared of dying?"

"Of course I am, im terrified."

"But how do you stay so calm about it?" Spike asks confused.

"Because I know if I go around being scared it... it makes it so much worse for everypony else." Scootaloo gave Spike warm smile.

Spike looks at his wife with pride. "Still making it better for everypony else." Spike smiles and Kisses Scootaloo before cuddling up to her and falling a sleep, the only sound that could be heard was Scootaloo's heart beat on the monitor.

Tomorrow Morning.

Spike walked in the to find Scootaloo already awake and looking out the window then turn at him and smile weakly, a yawn escapes Spikes mouth before smiling back at Scootaloo.

"How long have you been awake for?" Spike ask worried.

"An hour or so, I watched you raise the sun." Scootaloo turns to look out the window.

"You should get some more sleep." Spike told her.

"Why? Makes no difference, I wanna see as much as I can." Scootaloo sigh's sadly.

The last comment from Spikes wife makes him think before put the thought back for later. "So shall we get washed?"

Scootaloo did say anything but nod her head instead, Spike got up out of bed and walked round to her the orange mare. Spike stopped the Iv Drip and Heat Rate Monitor since she only needed them at night. Spike Carried his mare into the showers dragging the metal stand that's Scootaloo's blood bag with them. Spike turn the shower head on to a light spray, Scootaloo revelled in the warm water the feeling of it running down her fur was bliss. It got better when Spike started to rub his soapy claws gently over her body massaging her muscles. After the shower Spike gently dry Scootaloo before carrying her over to her wheelchair taking down to the dinning room.

Spike placed the wheelchair at the table and sat at the opposite to Scootaloo, the table wasn't massively large as you would expect in a castle this size. The castle's chef entered the dinning hall dressed in very clean chefs attire, he bowed before his king and Queen be asking what they would want to eat. Spike orders waffles and Apple juice while Scootaloo orders a very light salad and water stay true to the doctors orders.

they didn't have to wait long as their food was brought out not long after they order them, for a while they sat in silence eat their breakfast's enjoying each company.

Scootaloo was the first to break the silence. "Don't you just wish you could rewind time?"

"No, not if means all of my memories of you are gone." Spike replied.

"You hopeless romantic, you." Scootaloo poked out her tongue.

"...Im going to have to leave you today scoot, im sorry." Spike apologies.

"Ugh! where are you going today?"

"Im going to see Agile." Spike stated.

Since Starlight moved to Manehattan to live with Trixie so they could start a new life together. The friendship castle was given Princess Agile when she got her Cutie Mark. Agile was the last to get her cutie mark, Twilight theorised the reason of Agile's late development is most likely to do with being half be more like a Dragon then a pony. Agile's cutie mark turned out to be a pair of wings with a sword down the middle symbolising that Agile's Special Talent was flying and something else they hadn't worked out yet. Agile became one of the best fliers in Equestria maybe even better then the great Rainbow Dash her self. It wasn't long until she became a Wonder Bolt and started to tour with them going to so many different places and performing there. Agile met Apple Charm when she was on tour at Appaloosa after talking to each other and few dates they to become Special Some Ponies, and it was long until their love grew so much that got married. Apple Charm moved in after the Wedding, she now lives happily the castle with her wife and they couldn't be happier. Scootaloo Spike And Applebloom were so over joyed for the both of them, even Agile's brother Blazing Diamond shed a tear or two at the wedding.

"Why don't I come with you?" Scootaloo suggested.

"No, you need your rest, ill send her your love." Spike frowned, he didn't like talking to his wife like that but he have find out his plans.

"Ok. fine." Scootaloo huffed in defeat.

Spike looked at the clock on the wall and eat his breakfast quickly seeing that he could be late he gave his wife a kiss and left leaving her to eat in silence.

At Sugar Cube Corner.

You sat in the kitchen eating your breakfast waiting for your Daughter to help set Sugar Cube Corner up while you go visit Pinkie Whose in hospital due to her old age. Everyday you wake, get washed, make your self breakfast and sit at your kitchen table thinking about what you were going to say to your wife especially since you don't age, watching your wife age in front of your eyes.

In most ways you were angry, you never knew you were going to live for thousands of years, you didn't know that you weren't able to grow old with your wife. One day you started to notice wrinkles on pinkie and you didn't, you just thought years were being kind on you. But then as years went on you notice your appearance was still not changing, Scared you went to visit your best friend Spike. Once Spike calmed you down and found out what had got you so frightened, he reluctantly told you couldn't age and that you would live for thousands of years.

Your anger burst at the seems and rage took over and you screamed, shouted and swore at Spike, Pissed you left the Castle Galloped to an the field where you and Spike trained and shouted and screamed in rage all over again. Soon that rage and anger turned to sadness and you began to cry out, it wasn't long before pinkie found you. Once you told her everything Pinkie gave you the sweetest smile and took all those worries away.

The sound of the shop bell brought you out of your thoughts, you enter the front of the shop to see a dark cerise unicorn with a dark green mane, your daughter Shindig Pie. When Pinkie Pie was Pregnant for the first time she had miss carried and the baby was born dead. It took them another ten years before they could try again and Shindig was born. You would think having an name like Shindig you would expect her to be upbeat and light hearted girl but yet she was far from it. Ever Since Shindig was a teen she had no time for anypony else, a rebellious teen trying to stand out from her parents. Shindig disobeyed every rule you had, consistently got into trouble at School and she got older Shindig bucked any stallion she wanted Married or not Shindig didn't care. You thought as Shindig grew up she would grow out of her rebellious stage, but alas Shindig didn't and you were stuck with a moody daughter. There were moments of kindness from your daughter but they were so far Apart and so short it amount to much.

"Morning Shindig." you greeted warmly.

"Hi." Shindig replied coldly.

You sigh in defeat and shake your head. "You remember Everything told you yeah."

"Yes Dad." Shindig answers with a huff as she makes way behind the counter.

"Why don't you grow up for once and act your age, I mean do you even go see Mum?" You ask tired of your thirty year old daughter acting like she's eighteen.

"Bye." was all that Shindig said.

You gave up with your head hang low and make your way to the shop door stopping before turning to look at your Daughter. "What did we do to you to make you hate us so much?" Once you had your last word you left heading to the hospital not even bothering to her Shindig's reply.

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
At The Hospital.

You sat by Pinkie's bed as she tells you about all the ponies she has helped cheer up in her ward as you just listen enjoying what time you have left with your wife.

"So how's Shindig?" Pinkie ask curiously.

You rub your eyes with your front hooves tired of the situation with shindig "she's... the same as ever?" you finally answer thinking of the right answer.

"That bad eh?" Pinkie Answers.

"Its just I don't know how to talk to her any more Sweetheart." you admit.

"You'll work it out Aony, I have total faith in you." Pinkie smiles lovingly up at you.

"Thanks Pinks I will try?" you smile back.

"You know you Could always ask for Applejack for help im sure she wouldn't mind?"

You sighed sadly, these were the moments you hated the most correcting Pinkie about moments she had forgotten. "Um, Darling... Applejack died, shes been dead for a while now."

Pinkie's Smile turned to frown "Oh yeah... I did it again I thought was getting" Pinkie Starts to slowly cry as you give her a hug.

"You are Pinkie, you are." you try to make Pinkie feel better.

Once Pinkie stopped crying she looked up at you in Surprise Like its the first time she's seen you. "Oh my gosh your here!" Pinkie cuddles as strong as weak arms will let you.

Your eyes start to fill with tears but you Wipe them away and Smile at Pinkie again "That's right im here Pinkie and I always will be?"

"There's so much to tell you where do I start?" But before Pinkie could start telling you everything again Nurse Justice trots over.

"Im sorry to interrupt, but could I just talk to you from moment Prince Anon?" Nurse Justice asks bowing.

"Sure and please just call me Anon?" you ask.

"But you've just got here?" Pinkie frowns up at you.

"I won't be long I Promise." You plant a loving kiss on Pinkies forehead.

You trot over to where Nurse Justice is standing a long way from pinkie's bed. "What seems to be the problem nurse?" You ask smiling.

"Im so sorry to tell you this;" As soon as you heard the nurse say that your stomach turns inside out in fear of what is to come. "But your wife's brain is deteriorating faster then expected, she has less then two month's left."

"What?!" you shout in surprise.

"Im so sorry, ill give you some time to process this in." Nurse Justice smiled before leaving you alone.

You look at Pinkie Smiling and talking to another patient's, you try to imagine life with out her and you start to cry. you couldn't imagine living without your Pinkie Pie.
