A Stormy Victory

Starlight, Tempest, The Mane 5, and Grubber had all been called to a meeting by Shining Armor.

“Sigh we all know Equestria will never be the same again.” Shining Armor sighed out.

“That much is certain.” Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes.

“The princesses are gone and our heir to the throne Spike was also taken out as well. We need someone to rule Equestria, and I can’t rule Equestria since I have The Crystal Empire and Flurry Heart to protect.” Shining Armor states with remorse.

“Fortunately even with Spike’s tyranny he at least made one good decision, it is important you read this note.” Shining Armor said to Starlight and the Mane 5.

Dear Starlight, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie

I have written this to you before the battle in case I don’t make it, it has come to my attention I have been to strict I apologize for that.

I was merely trying to have you take this seriously after how the quest 7 months ago went, I’ve been angry with you but I never stopped caring about you I realize that now.

You all are the best friends I can ask for. I knew if it would come down to me or you at the battle I was always going to sacrifice myself for you guys.

Now if I don’t make it I have one request as possible new ruler, I am giving Starlight leadership of all Equestria with the help of Twilight’s friends Equestria will be in safe hands with you guys I know it.

From Spike

Starlight was shocked she was now the new ruler of Equestria.

“I-I” Starlight began before Shining Armor cut her off.

“Starlight you have proven to be a worthy mare of this honor you have saved Equestria three times and have proven to be truly redeemed you must take Spike’s place as the new ruler.” Shining Armor stated.

“I’m just so nervous but I will do it for Twilight and Spike.” Starlight said nervously.

“Excellent we’ll give you time to prepare for this, your coronation is in a few weeks.” Shining Armor said in some happiness.

Starlight didn’t know what would come next but she new that Equestria was in her hooves now.

And she would not let them down.
