Angel Wings (Happy Ending)

Fluttershy looked down on her love's lifeless body.The baby in her hoofs grew ever more restless. But no matter how hard Morning Sky cried, her mother was gone.

"How could you do this to me? All those promises.....all that love. And you just gave up? You? Rainbow Dash, best flier in all of Equestria? The Element of Loyalty? The reason for my existence.....Oh Dashie....."

The door burst open revealing four other ponies, all with horror stricken faces.

"Fluttershy.....is she....."

"Pinkie....."

Fluttershy couldn't fight it anymore. She collapsed into the pink pony's hoofs and allowed her cries to join little Morning Sky's. She felt six other legs wrap around her, but the new warmth did nothing to stave off the ice that now slowly filled her body.

-------/\/-------

".....Was that.....?"

Everypony's eyes turned to the monitor.

"Come on....."

Silence. More silence. Fluttershy's heart shattered again as she gazed upon her beloved Rainbow Dash. That beautifully messy mane laying gently over her eyes. Those unconquerable roslyn eyes that would never open again. Fluttershy leaned in and pressed her lips to Rainbow's. Tears fell from the golden mare's eyes and ran down the cyan cheek below her. Then.....something appeared.

"It looks like.....is that her Element?"

Her Element appeared just as suddenly.

"What's happening?" She heard Twilight Sparkle say, her big crown thingy now adorning her head.

Fluttershy shut her eyes as a blinding light filled the room. A powerful magic came through her, far greater than the power she felt against both Nightmare Moon and Discord. She did not know what was happening or why. The light faded into a gentle glow and Fluttershy looked down at her beautuful Morning Sky and noticed the same glow from the baby alicorn's horn. Her cries had stopped and now she only looked at Rainbow Dash. Fluttershy looked back at her friends, Elements aglow, and then back to her true love.

"I love you Dashie."

-----/\/-----/\/-----/\/-----

She saw them again. Breathtaking rose colored eyes fluttered open.

"Dashie.....?"

"Hey 'Shy. I love you too."

Fluttershy shot forward, careful of the baby in her hoof, collapsed into her beloved's chest, tears flowing more freely than ever before. Her embrace was quickly followed by four other ponies, all in a torrent of tears and absolute joy.

Everypony had calmed down and decided it would be best to leave the new family alone for a while. The baby was sleeping contently in Rainbow Dash's forelegs.

" 'Shy, she really is amazing. I can't believe I made something so beautiful."

"Dashie.....I thought you were gone....."

"I promised you, didn't I? Besides, I was gone there for a second.....but I came back for you.....and for her."

"How did you know?"

"You wouldn't believe it if I told you.....Morning Sky told me. She told me it would be okay. I never doubted it for a second."

"It was a miracle Dashie."

"Tonight has been full of miracles. Your love. And this little miracle sleeping on me right now."

"Dashie? Can I ask if you saw anything?"

"I did. I saw your face. I saw that beautiful face you made when you first saw Morning Sky. That absolutely blinding light coming off you. That's what I saw."

"That was from the Elements."

"You're wrong 'Shy. That light wasn't from something anypony can see. It can only be felt. It was your heart. The Elements, Celestia's sun, nothing shines more brightly."

"You're only one-third right Dashie. You and Sky are glowing too."

"Morning Sky! You're going to be late for school!" Morning Sky heard Fluttershy yell throughout the cottage.

"Wow, 'Shy. I still can't believe how loud you can get when Sky's being a lazy pony," Rainbow Dash added teasingly.

"We don't need your two bits Mom!" Morning Sky yelled back as she grumpily rolled out of bed and rushed herself to get ready. It was quite a walk after all, and if she wanted to meet up with Dusk Shine in time.

As she descended the stairs, she looked into the kitchen just in time to see a pair of cerulean lips collide with two goldenrod ones.

"Ew! Mom! Mommy! That's gross!"

"Its not gross at all Sky. Some day you're going to be kissing somepony of your own," Fluttershy, A.K.A. Mommy, rescinded.

"And I bet you're gonna be just as good at it as your Mom. Right 'Shy?" Rainbow Dash said with a wink.

"Alright alright. I better get going. Dusk is probably waiting for me.....I love you two."

"We love you too Sky. You be sure and have a good day at school. Tell Dusk that he and Armor need to come by sometime."

"Will do Mommy. See ya!"

Rainbow Dash watched as her daughter faded into the distance. She was now just a tiny silver sparkle on the horizon. She glanced over at the beautiful mare next to her, wiping a few straggling tears away as she watched their little girl.

"Oh 'Shy.....do you have to do this every morning?" she thought with a smile as looked back toward their daughter. "Thank you Morning Sky. Not just for giving me the greatest daughter ever, but you also gave me my Fluttershy. Thank you.....my little miracle."


Author's Note

This is one of two endings I made for this story. This one is happy if you hadn't noticed yet. There is also a sad ending if you are curious and after that I will wrap up the Shining Armor/investigation arc. And that shall be the end-end of this story. Thank you all for sticking with it.
