As we all land in front of Twilight's library, we see the mare herself, covered in and surrounded by soot.

"What happened?" Screwy and I say at the same time.

"I *cough* figured out why the Uru exploded when Sunset and Pinkie were here *cough*. It seems I accidentally placed a self-destruct spell on it when the other me and I were experimenting with it. That's why it basically exploded." Twilight says, coughing and patting the soot off herself.

"A self-destruct spell? Really?" I ask her.

"I didn't mean to. It was an accident." Twilight says.

"Okay, then what's this?" I say, pointing at the blast mark on the ground.

"Me finding out why the Uru exploded before?" Twilight says uncertainly.

"Well, whatever. I just don't think you should do it again. And you need to clean this up." I tell her, pointing at the ground again. Twilight groans but lights her horn, beginning to suck up all the soot. I turn to Screwy and see she has a pensive look on her face. I cannot ask about it though as I feel a very familiar energy from a specific part of the Everfree.
Again? Wow, we're popular as of late.
I then sense another energy beside that of my two goddess friends. A energy very similar to mine.
Who is that? Another god of destruction? No… it can't be one. Their energy is way too calm.
I am proven wrong however, when I see not just Sunset and Yulo, but also, very surprisingly, Beerus!
"The heck?" I say, flying up into the air towards the divine trio. I stop in front of them.
Beerus… is that you? I think, baffled by how different his energy is now.
Indeed it is. Hello Se… wait a minute.

"Are you a god of destruction?!" He shouts. I now notice another change about him. His pupils are now completely silver. Instead of the malicious black they were before, his eyes, while still having yellow sclera, are now bright silver.

"Yes, also, what happened to your eyes?" I ask him, flying with him back down to Ponyville.

"My eyes? Ah, yes. My eyes. Am I to assume you know about my recent… excursions?" He asks me.

"Excursions? Oh, you mean vanishing off to that Null place? Yes. Also." I punch him in the arm. "That's for worrying me."

"Ow. Since you know about that, you'll know why I was there." Beerus says.

"Mostly. Being able to read through your head helps." I say, poking around in his memories.

"Good. Then you probably know that, through my soul-searching, I was able to… find myself, I guess. Through that, I have, at least partially, obtained Ultra Instinct."

"You got UI? Wow. Good for you." I complement him. "You still really worried me though." I say, punching him again, lighter this time.

"I am sorry for that, but it is what I needed to do." He replies.

"So, with that out of the way." I turn to Sunset and Yulo. "I'm guessing you're here to pick me up for that meeting you mentioned?" I ask. Yulo frowns.

“Not exactly, you see we forgot to inform you last time that every God of Destruction needs an Angel by their side for such a meeting.”

"Angel? Oh right. I forgot about that. And I guess Screwy doesn't count for that?" I ask. Sunset shakes her head.

“No, Screwball is your Supreme Kai. They are your equal while an Angel is more a mix of a caretaker and Overseer, they make sure you are cared for but also pull you back into line if you go too far.”

"Oh. If that's their job then I think I have a candidate." I say, looking behind me. Right at Bella. "Would you like to join the conversation?" I ask. Bella steps forward.

"You think I should be your Angel? Are you sure?" She asks.

"Why not. You're my best friend, you always kept me in line when we were kids and this way, neither of us get separated. We become the three musketeers, basically." I tell her. She still looks hesitant. I sigh. "Listen, if you don't think you're right for it, I can choose someone else. Okay?"

"Wait." Bella says, turning to Sunset and Yulo. "What exactly does an Angel do?" She asks. Sunset frowns.

“That varies from Angel to Angel, their main duty is to report to us if their God of Destruction is not doing their job properly. Also to help care for them which varies greatly, some Angels do a lot more than others depending on their God of Destruction’s capability in caring for themselves. Some let their God of Destruction get away with too much.”

"Well, that doesn't sound so bad. Not that you would… I just noticed something." I say.

"What?" Screwy asks.

"I haven't needed to eat or go to the toilet since I've been displaced. At least, I don't think so. I have barely eaten anything all week." I say.

"Could it be your powers?" Bella asks. "Because I haven't been hungry or thirsty since I bonded with Havoc."

"That might be. Anyway, a topic for another time. Hng?" I stumble slightly, a small spasm in my chest. "Weird. Anyway, if you don't want to Bella, I might have an idea for somepony."

"What?" Chrysalis asks.

"Sunset? Do you want to explain?" I turn to her. Sunset nods.

“Chrysalis, quite simply Seth is a God of Destruction and Screwball is God of Creation. The God of Destruction needs to have an overseer and caretaker, how much that role entails depends more on the God’s competence.”

"Just overseer really." I cut in. Beerus frowns and says.

“Whis did a lot more than that but I was a very lazy god with an over bloated ego. I really owe him for being so patient.”

"What they said. I think you would be a pretty good fit." I tell the reformed changeling.

"Why me? Why not somecreature like Bella?" She asks.

"Already asked. She wasn't sure about it." I say. "So, I thought you could do it. Being a changeling queen can't be easy, so you must have experience with this kinda stuff, right?" I ask her.

"…Sure. Overseeing an entire hive wasn't easy but, I couldn't even do that right. My hive rebelled against me." She says.

"You were still evil back then. And now you've changed. It can't be that hard, right?"

"Can you let me think about it?" She asks.

"Of course." I tell her. I turn to everyone else. "Welp, that's all the candidates I could think of." I say.

"There were only two of them." Screwy says.

"And that's all I could think of." I say again.

"Well… could we maybe do something fun?" Screwy asks. Yulo grins as she clicks her fingers and it starts raining cheese.

“Cheese for everyone!” Yulo shouts. Her prank gives me an idea.

"First to catch as much cheese without letting it touch the ground wins!" I shout, forming my Ultimatrix and setting it to XLR8 as I do. I immediately start speeding around, catching as much cheese as I can without letting it touch the ground. Sunset deadpans as she watches the cheesefest in front of her.

“Is this really what we are doing? I’m going to take a nap.” She then walks over to the side of the Library and lays down next to it. She starts to snore loudly.

"Oh come on Sunset. Have some fun!" I say, poking her side. She just rolls over and forms a barrier around herself. "Fine. Go ahead and have your nap." I say, now continuing to zip around. From the looks of it, Yulo has about as much cheese as me, zipping around even faster than I am. Screwy has also joined in, although she is using a giant fishing net. "Screwy. MANUALLY catch the cheese." I tell her. She rolls her eyes and empties her net into the air, now wearing a helmet and roller skates. "That's the spirit!" I call out.

About five minutes later, all the cheese has been caught. In first place, Yulo with two hundred and seventy four. How she stacked her pile that high on her arms without letting it fall, I don't know. I am in second place with one hundred and one. Surprisingly, in third place, Beerus. With sixty. It seems he started playing part way through. In last, barely is Screwy, with fifty eight.

"Drat. So close." Screwy moans.

"So, are there any prizes?" Beerus asks. I think for a moment before smirking.

"Yes, a snowball to the face." I say, making a small snowball in my hand. "One for you." I say, tossing a ball at Beerus's face. "Two for me." I say, making two clones and have both throw snowballs at my face.
"And three for you!" All three of me say as we throw a snowball each at Yulo. She dodges but then gets grabbed by two clones phasing out of the ground. "No dodging!" I say, the three me's throwing again. "Bullseye." I say, Yulo’s face covered in snow. Yulo laughs.

“Okay. you got me good!” She then turns to Sunset. “We are not going to be able to wake her up, I once dropped an infinite conceptual overwhelm cascade detonation on her head and she didn’t even budge. That could have destroyed reality if it didn't hit her.” I raise an eyebrow at this.

"Are you sure you don't need an Angel?" I ask jokingly. Yulo pulls out a balloon and whacks me with it.

“That was not funny.” She says. I pull my head out of the ground and say.

"I can see that. Sorry." I apologize. "I have an idea." I say.

"What?" Yulo asks. I start transforming and say.

"First one to the edge of the universe wins." I say, forming a portal in front of myself and flying through it. I come out in the void of space, closing the portal behind me. "Dang, a little off." I say, noticing I'm still a light-year or two from the edge. By the time I arrive, there are one hundred Yulo’s waiting for me, she rolls her eyes.

“Races don’t mean much when you are above the very concept of speed itself, it’s why Sunset and I don’t race anymore. It means little.” She says.

"Oh. Drat. Oh well. Can't blame me for-*bam!*" I am cut off by an asteroid smashing into the back of my head. "…Really?" Yulo starts giggling. "That wasn't funny, Pinkie." I say.

"Oh come on. It was a little funny." She retorts. We both fly back, avoiding more random asteroids and some of the planets and solar systems Screwy created. Some of them look really interesting. Some are quite whacky. It doesn't take us very long to get home though. As we both land back in Ponyville, Chrysalis walks up to us all.

"Hi. I think I will accept your offer." She says.

"Are you sure?" I ask.

"Yes. You can count on me." She says, determination sparkling in her eyes. Yulo smiles.

“Well then.” Yulo clicks her fingers, power surging into Chrysalis as a halo appears around her neck along with a long staff with a black orb, surrounded by a vertical light blue ring, almost like Screwy's. Yulo then explains. “That halo shows you are at full power and that is your staff, all Angels carry one if they are overseers to a God of Destruction. There are a few who aren’t but they are in training.”

"Wow. Thank you. I'll do my best. I promise." She says.

"I know you will." I tell her, patting her shoulder. "It's been very nice seeing you again." I say to Yulo. Yulo smiles.

“Likewise, I’ll see you at the meeting. I will take Sunset to our bed so she can rest.” She says. Beerus gives me a thumbs up.

“I can’t wait to see my brother's reaction at the meeting. I’ll see you there.”

"Likewise. Also." I say getting his attention. "Don't forget to tell your friends your back. And don't let Goku pressure you into fighting him. Got it?" I say. He looks surprised for a moment but, after I feel him niggle around in my head for a second, he smiles and says.

"Sure. Take care, friend." He says, turning back to Yulo. Yulo clicks her fingers and Sunset appears in her right arm. Yulo smiles.

“Farewell everyone.” She clicks her fingers again and the three of them vanish in a bright flash of light.

"Well that was fun." I say. Screwy then tugs on my arm. "Hm? What's up Screwy?"
