Maybe One More Chapter For The Road

Previous Chapter

Rainbow Dash just stared at the door, torn. She couldn't leave her baby alone, but she didn't want to be alone. The baby is too important. Rainbow tearfully got into bed and cried herself to sleep.


"Aw, don't worry, Sugarcube." Applejack said. "He'll be back."

"How do you know that?" Rainbow said. "He's always truthful. When he says something, he means it."

"Something as uncertain as love is never stable." Applejack pushed a glass of cider over to Rainbow. Somehow that made her feel worse. Rainbow kept her eyes on the CMC, who decided that they would get their cutie marks in babysitting. So far they were doing well. No broken bones.

Sweetie kept taking glances at Rainbow, knowing something was wrong.

Twilight arrived for some apple pie for Spike. When she finished her transaction, she took one look at Rainbow.

"You look terrible." She said, smiling.

Rainbow just glared at her. Twilight stopped smiling.

"It has something to do with Lightning, doesn't it?"

"How did you know?"

"Because he stopped by and asked my to give this to you." In her hoof, she held out a wedding veil.

"What's that for?" Rainbow was confused. He didn't want to marry her after this mess, right?

"He just said to meet him at the gazebo right away, and to bring Goldie." Twilight fastened the veil on Rainbow's head before turning to go. Rainbow stood there, mouth hanging open.

"What are you waiting for, Sugarcube?" Applejack said. "Go to the gazebo! And close your mouth before you catch flies."


"Zappy? Zappy?" Rainbow called as she ran to the gazebo. Then she saw him, a lone figure standing on the gazebo.

She ran faster, until her parents stopped her.

"Rainbow, dear. You need to look beautiful on your wedding day. Stop running or you'll sweat out your hair!"

"Sorry, mom." Rainbow blushed, barely hearing her mother. All she saw was him. She slowly walked along the carpet, lead by her father towards the stallion in black. Finally, she reached him.

"Zappy? Am I dreaming? I thought you had left me." Rainbow gasped.

"Would I ever leave you? I told you I'd never hurt you. I just needed to let off some steam. Flying usually helps."

Then came time for the vows. Rainbow said them halfheartedly, for all she could see or think about was the pony in front of her.

"Lightning, you may now kiss your bride." The pastor said in a thick Canterlot accent.

Lightning placed a tiny peck on Rainbow's lips, much to her disappointment. The crowd cheered. Rainbow went in for another kiss, but he stopped her.

"Save it for later, Baby Blue." Then he smirked, the same way that made Rainbow fall in love with him all those years ago. "I'm sorry, Rainbow. I guess I was too caught up in revenge that I didn't consider your feelings. I'm sorry I said all of those mean things."

"It's all right. Some of those thing you said were true." Rainbow smiled.

"Like what?"

"That I didn't want to fight for myself." Rainbow said. "Well, I never really did. I expected you to fight for me, which was unfair."

"No, it's okay." Lighting said. "So we aren't doing any revenge?"

"Oh, someday." Rainbow said. A mischievous look crossed her face. "Or maybe tomorrow, if you want."

"Oh, Baby Blue." Lightning pulled her in for kiss. "So tomorrow it is."
The End!
