Angel With A Shotgun.

Long ago, at the start of the universe, there was nothing, and then there was something.

After that God and His wife Ashera came into existence. Soon, there were His many angelic children.

For many millenia, they were happy in their home of Heaven. God took up a hobby, a pet project He called 'Humanity'.

But things change, don't they? Samael became rebellious and fought against his family, causing one third to rally with him.

He and his fallen siblings lost the war, all of whom were brutally slaughtered by Azrael's blade. Samael was judged by his father and condemned to rule Hell for all eternity. Samael renounced his birth name and changed it to Lucifer.

One of his other brothers, Zarachiel, was thrown out of Heaven alongside his brother. However, Zarachiel, due to God's blinded rage, was sent to another reality.

Zarachiel ended up in Equestria during the Summer Sun Celebration. He'd befriended the princesses and started to date Princess Celestia.

Their relationship went from days which soon turned into weeks. Those weeks soon turned into months, and those months soon turned into years

Eventually, Zarachiel and Princess Celestia consumated and soon Celestia was pregnant with their child. A nephilim pony alicorn. Their child would get their horn from their mother's genes and their wings from their father.

A year later, their child was born during a sunset which they named the child after. Zarachiel spent only mere minutes with his daughter before he was suddenly yanked back to Heaven from his home in Canterlot Castle.

Zarachiel glanced around at his surroundings as he got to his feet. He was back in Heaven, where he never wanted to step foot again.

Suddenly, he was teleported through the walls and into his father's Throne Room.

"Why the hell did you bring me back here, Dad!?" Zarachiel snapped. He wanted to go back, to be with his wife and daughter whom he was already missing. His wings were poised above him threateningly.

God sighed, pinching the bridge of His nose. "You were never supposed to be in that world." God said, glaring down at His son in anger.

He had let His control on His power slip. He wouldn't make that same mistake again.

Zarachiel was furious. He'd just been ripped away from his family. How dare his father think to make him a puppet in his play once more! With that thought made, he left the Throne Room to find Gabriel. His younger brother would know how to help him. After all, Gabriel did help their father create multiple multiverses.

Zarachiel knocked on Gabriel's door to his rooms, awaiting his brother's reply.

Gabriel opened his door to find Zarachiel waiting outside. Gabriel had brown hair, brown eyes, a beard that connected from under his chin and had white skin.

"What are you doing here, brother?" Gabriel asked, shocked that his older brother was back in Heaven.

The Archangel of Life sighed, massaging his temple as he thought of a way to explain it.

"Fuck it, explaining it makes it easier." Zarachiel muttered as he explained to his younger brother exactly what happened. Oddly enough, his brothers believed that he'd been sentenced to Hell alongside Lucifer.

Gabriel, after hearing his brother's story, took his word as the truth and snapped his fingers, sending him back to Equestria.

Celestia paced back and forth in her chambers. It had been eighteen years for her since her husband had left her and their daughter, Sunset Shimmer, behind. She hoped that when he returned he'd explain himself.

The flutter of giant wings behind her answered her plea.

The alicorn mother turned around and faced her husband, tears leaking out of her eyes as they streamed down her cheeks.

"Where have you been?" Celestia sobbed, barely able to hold herself together. She'd missed her husband terribly, and their daughter had to grow up without her father.

Zarachiel sighed, furling his wings as they vanished into thin air. He felt like shit for abandoning his wife and child. He looked around the room and then on Celestia as he asked her where their child was.

Celestia explained everything to him about Sunset, how and why she left through the portal. Zarachiel sighed and decided that he would go and look for their child tomorrow. It was too late in the evening and he needed sleep. Badly.

Celestia and the Archangel of life retired to their chambers as the two fell asleep together.

In the human version of Equestria, Sunset Shimmer sobbed into her legs as every student avoided her. Anon-A-Miss had ruined the school and everyone believed it was her. It wasn't fair! She'd worked hard to earn her redemption and all her effort had gone to waste!

She wished her mother was here, or father, if she had one at least....

Zarachiel moved in his sleep as he grimaced. Someone was praying to him, or calling out for help. He got up as he felt a magical signature that had an angelic feeling to it.

He summoned a piece of paper as he grabbed a pot of ink and used a quill to write where he was and what exactly he was doing.

He put the letter on Celestia's vanity table. He donned his pants, shirt and jacket on as he flew down to Twilight's castle. Not making a peep, he went through the portal.

He didn't feel any of the effects as he was booted out of the portal. The Archangel of Life landed on his feet as he kept tracking the magical signature. Whoever it was seemed strong and wasn't that far from where he was.

He would find them and get them to safety away from whatever was putting them in danger.

Sunset Shimmer walked into the gym as the lights suddenly turned on. A crowd of students on her right waved at her and seemed glad that she was there. She identified some of the students as Trixie, Gilda, Dumbell, Hoops, Score, Lightning Dust, Flash Sentry and The Dazzlings. What they were doing here she didn't know. She even identified Snips and Snails.

"You're probably wondering why you're here." Gilda began. She pointed to the phone in the orange-skinned girl's hand.

Sunset looked down at her phone and the message from Rainbow Dash to meet her in the gym.

"Listen, Rainbow Dash wanted us to jump you and leave you near-death for the cops to find. The school's a war zone and everyone wants ya dead Sunset." Gilda said, shocking Sunset as she thought they were going to actually hurt her.

"Everyone but us." Trixie added, "We're on your side. As if you'd be Anon-A-Miss at all. They're sloppy and unprofessional."

Sunset smiled at the support. It felt good to have people that actually believed in her.

Suddenly, a rush of cold wind entered the gym as a flutter of wings was heard behind Sunset. The bacon-haired teen tuned in on the person's presence behind her and turned around to face him.

The man had golden blonde hair, golden eyes. He had white skin and was quite tall. He looked muscular and his expression showed fearlessness.

Zarachiel tuned in on the girl's magical energy that she gave off. It was so very similar to Celestia's, yet also like his own.

His eyes widened in shock as he realized who he was staring at. The girl before him was his daughter!

Sunset gave the man a confused expression. She could feel an energy that felt so similar to her own. She made the connections in her head as she stared at the man-no-her father.

In a split second, Sunset ran over to Zarachiel and hugged him, sobbing into his chest as she wrapped her arms around him.

"D-Daddy? Is that you?" Sunset asked tearfully, smiling as she hugged her father joyfully, cuddling herself into his chest.

"Yeah, it's me, Sunset. It's me." Zarachiel soothed his daughter with a wing as she leaned into it. Gilda and the others looked on at the scene as they stared at Zarachiel and Sunset.

"S-Sunset? Are you-" Flash had begun to ask, only to be interrupted.

"-Sunset's father? Yes it is. I'm here to protect my daughter." Zarachiel confirmed as Sunset nuzzled his wing absentmindedly.

Without thinking, he scooped his daughter up and flew her to a nearby apartment building that he had rented out.

The father-daughter due landed in their apartment. Zarachiel sat on the couch as Sunset hugged him.

Sunset revelled in the hug with her father, his wings wrapped securely around her body. The soft and warm feathers tickling her face as she began to doze off to sleep within the embrace.

"Sleep now, little angel. Get some sleep. I bet you're mentally and emotionally exhausted after what you've been through today." Zarachiel whispered softly to his now sleeping daughter as she nestled deeper into his left wing.

Carefully, he scooped her into his arms and carried her to her bedroom.

The new father lovingly pulled the covers over Sunset's body. Admittedly, he didn't want to leave her side.

He wanted to protect her and keep her safe from any harm her ex-friends could try to bring upon her. Is that what his father and mother, the God and Goddess of all creation felt after he had been born from the mere cosmic dust in the ever expanding universe? He hoped one day he could reconcile with them both. Sunset and his wife, her mother Celestia had helped heal the scars of the rebellion he and Lucifer had fought in eons ago.

They had helped him bury his hatred and resentment for his parents and had helped bring back his inner angel.

He also hoped Sunset could one day get to meet her grandparents, aunts and uncles as well as her cousins Charlie and Rory.

He took one last glance at his sleeping daughter, a small smile on her lips as she wrapped her wings around her body, protecting it and using them as a makeshift blanket.

"Sleep tight, little angel."

Skyfall.

Author's Note

This story is also a crossover with the Lucifer TV show and is based around halfway through Season 5. Except Michael beforehand wasn't a douchebag like he was in seasons 4 and 5.

Zarachiel is as old as Lucifer, Michael and Amenadiel as they are 17.3 billion years old and are immortal angels thus making Sunset immortal and very powerful.

Her wing shape and colour will be revealed later on. Here's a bit of a teaser: Her wings are 15 feet in length and a metre in height, making them quite big. Like where all angel wings are in Lucifer, they're placed on her upper back, behind her neck inbetween her shoulder blades.

Skyfall.

Zarachiel woke up and preened his lower primary feathers. They had been itching him terribly the previous night before.

He furled his wings as the weight on his back disappeared. Satisfied, he went into Sunset's room to check on his little angel.

Sunset was still asleep, her covert and primary feathers unkempt. Zarachiel decided against preening them for now. He would let his baby girl sleep in a little longer.

He looked out the window and stared at the bright blue sky. He smiled at the sight. His father had done a good job ever since God himself had created Earth. However, unlike what many believed, God never created the stars. They had been created by his older brother Lucifer, The Lightbringer. His other brother Michael had created the nights which in themselves were beautiful.

Zarachiel put on some fresh clothes and sat on the couch. He turned on the TV and kept changing channels until he found the news. A murder had taken place.

"Heh, Lucifer, Chloe and Ella would've been a massive help here" Zarachiel thought to himself. He went to get up and check on Sunset, only to hear her footsteps and see her sit down beside him as she leaned into him.

Even though he had just met her, he loved her deeply. She was his child. Sure, she was a nephilim, but she wasn't harmful nor was she dangerous in any sense of the word. Due to being the child of an archangel, one of the strongest and most powerful angel ranks, she would've inherited wings, immortality and invincibility.

"Morning, Dad." Sunset yawned, stretching her arms as she rubbed her eyes.

"Morning kiddo, you alright?" He asked, gently squeezing her shoulder as she clenched her eyes shut and sobbed. Something was definitely upsetting her.

"What's wrong, Sunset?" Zarachiel asked, concern in his voice. Whatever or whoever had hurt his daughter would pay for their actions.

"It's better if I tell you everything from the start." Sunset said. She explained to her father about Anon-A-Miss and what they had done to the students and the school. Zarachiel was furious. Whoever was behind the account was going to pay. No one hurt his daughter-a nephilim nonetheless.

He clenched his fists tightly as his eyes glowed a deep gold, His wings were raised above his back in anger. The two celestial limbs were white that had diagonal golden stripes running through the rows of different feathers across the wings.

Sunset looked at his wings in awe, wondering if she'd inherited wings as big as her father's. She gazed to her watch on her left arm as she read the time.

"Crap, I'm gonna be late!" Sunset groaned, walking to the door as she grabbed her bag full of school supplies.

Without thinking, Zarachiel scooped Sunset into his arms and unfurled his wings. He opened the door to their balcony and quickly took off, flying over mach speed with slow flaps of his wings as they landed outside of CHS.

He furled his wings into himself as Sunset left his arms and ran towards the school.

Zarachiel flew off back to their apartment and grabbed his phone, opening the MyStable app. He came across a blog from the Anon-A-Miss account, showing a picture of Lyra and Bon-Bon kissing.

He made an account on the app and sent a direct message to the Anon-A-Miss page. A small but firm warning from him.

"I know not who you are, but I know your intentions. You wish to hurt Sunset Shimmer, not only to drive away her friends but to turn the entire school against her by pinning your actions on her. Stay away from Sunset Shimmer. If I find out you have made another post, I will find you and I will deliver justice. Know now that you have been judged by one of God's Archangels. Sincerely: Zarachiel."

He sent the message to the page and waited for a reply from the account. They would eventually learn just how angry a fatherly archangel truly was. No one messes with God's angels or humans they cared about.

Eventually, Anon-A-Miss responded half an hour later.

"We're not scared of you! You're just some delusional religious believer! You can't do anything to us!"

Zarachiel only laughed at the statement. Oh, how foolish the human behind this account was. As an angel, he'd seen a lot of things in his long, immortal life. He'd seen Job take pain and lose everything he ever had caused by Azazel. He'd seen Moses himself up in Heaven alongside Adam and Eve. He's seen the Egyptians hunting the Israelites as they fled slavery. He'd seen his brother Jésús suffer by Humanity as he was crucified. How he wanted to smite those Romans himself. That was then. This was now.

Anon-A-Miss would learn to never cross an angel's path. Especially that of an Archangel.

Later on, Sunset returned home to their apartment with bruises, a few cuts and a black eye. Sunset wept into her father as he healed her completely.

He would keep her safe and sound. He was going to have a talk with the principal there. Anon-A-Miss needed to be brought down for good.

Oh, how they would learn not to mess with the grandchild of God himself. He could feel the adrenaline flowing through him as he smirked. Like his 'Crime-Solving Devil' brother Lucifer, he loved to punish the evil and protect the innocent.

The chase had just begun. This was going to be fun.

The World Is Unravelling.

The CMC were in their clubhouse in Sweet Apple Acres as they went through the Anon-A-Miss account that they had made.

They saw all of the horrible and disturbing messages that had been sent to them by the other students. Many wanted Sunset severely beaten. Others wanted her dead or back in the pony version of Equestria.

They felt guilty for hurting their sisters in the process, but they felt it was needed to keep Sunset away from them.

Suddenly, the light began to flicker as the clouds outside formed a large pair of angel wings. The skies thundered as lightning crackled.

They didn't know what was going on. What they didn't realize was that God had seen what had been done to His granddaughter. He was furious. In His anger, He decided to show His Old Testament Wrath to coerce the CMC to confess.

After what happened with Zarachiel, God realized He was acting too controlling over His son, and thus decided to let him live his life how he wanted. After seeing His son find and rescue Sunset, He smiled. He couldn't wait to meet her. He knew Zarachiel and Sunset wouldn't be too happy to see him. He didn't blame them.

Sunset deserved to have her father in her life. He'd taken that away from her and didn't deny His blame. He decided that from now on, Zarachiel was to be with his daughter. It made His son happy when he was with the girl. It seemed to slowly be fixing what He had done to his son many millenia ago.

The three shook in fear as a thunderstorm started to brew. This would be their downfall.

Sunset barely held herself from breaking down and crying as students attacked her and shoved into her, jeering and insulting her.

She felt herself fall, but was caught by a grey hand. She was helped up and met the face of Octavia, who was standing next to Vinyl Scratch.

"Those ruffians! Are you alright, Sunset?" The grey-skinned musician asked her, concerned for the bacon-haired girl's mental state.

"Thank you, Octavia. Wait, you don't think I'm Anon-A-Miss?" Sunset asked happily, she hoped that Octavia didn't believe she was the one behind Anon-A-Miss.

"I know you're not. You aren't this sloppy. Everyone here should know that." Octavia replied, smiling. Vinyl nodded along with her girlfriend.

"Thank you!" Sunset cried, hugging Octavia as the three girl hung out until the bell rang, signalling it was time for class once more.

The CMC were in the school library on one of the computers. They were on the Anon-A-Miss page, scrolling through messages and info sent by other students secretly.

They felt sick to their stomachs. It had gone too far. They didn't want to admit they were Anon-A-Miss. They didn't want their sisters to hate them.

But they also didn't want to be Anon-A-Miss anymore. They had seen what had happened to Sunset.

However, judgement was about to come as a message popped up from a random user. The entire message only consisted of:

"Gotcha."

They didn't know what that meant. They looked around themselves and spotted the security cameras in the ceiling that were aimed in their direction, specifically focusing on the three of them and the computer they were using.

They turned around to find Vice-Principal Luna frowning at them as she clenched her fists tightly. She was furious. Three of their freshman had turned out to be Anon-A-Miss!

"YOU THREE ARE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE!"

Personal Jesus.

The Auditorium was filled to the brim with students and teachers. Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna had set up the assembly to reveal who Anon-A-Miss truly was.

Sunset and her father Zarachiel were backstage, waiting until they were needed.

Luna had caught the CMC, also known as the Canterlot Movie Club, red-handed in the act.

"We are all here today, to not only end the Anon-A-Miss Miss situation currently active within the school, but to reveal who it truly is. Anon-A-Miss is not Sunset Shimmer." Principal Celestia stated, informing the students of the truth.

Students roared and yelled back at her, denying what she was saying. Many wanted to believe it was Sunset. Others, such as Vinyl, Octavia, Lyra, Bon Bon, Derpy, Trixie and The Dazzlings merely scoffed and rolled their eyes at the other immature students.

"ENOUGH!" Vice-Principal Luna yelled, causing the students to go silent at the command.

Once she had complete silence, Principal Celestia spoke up. "Will Scootaloo, Sweetie-Belle and Apple Bloom please come forward?" The educator requested as the three preteens got up and walked over to the stage.

Once they were on the stage, the assembly could begin. "Use this laptop to sign into the Anon-A-Miss MyStable page." Vice-Principal Luna coldly commanded. The trio nervously logged into the account and posted their final blog on the account, ending it once and for all.

"We are Anon-A-Miss."

Apple Bloom then sent the message as every student recieved an alert on their phones as they all buzzed in sync. Once they recieved the message, they looked up from their phones in shock.

Yells and roars of anger and grief came from every student. The only ones who were silent were the Rainbooms, Derpy, Lyra, Bon Bon, Octavia, Vinyl, Derpy, Trixie and The Dazzlings.

Principal Celestia went backstage as both Zarachiel and Sunset came on stage. Sunset had bags under her eyes which were also red from crying as she slept. Sunset's new group of friends felt bad for her, wanting to go and comfort her.

Zarachiel scanned the students as he glared at the ones who were acting aggressive. He immediately knew that they had been the ones to hurt his daughter. Oh, Lucifer was gonna have a good time in Hell with them.

His little fledgling had told him about her new friends who believed she was innocent. He couldn't wait to meet them. They would be rewarded by going straight to Heaven once they passed for helping Sunset.

Zarachiel stared down the students who had harmed his daughter. He glared at them, sending chills down their spines.

The Archangel of Life smiled at her new friends as he spotted them. He glared at every other student, his golden irises glowing brighter.

"HOW DARE YOU THINK YOU CAN HARM MY DAUGHTER AND GET AWAY WITH IT?!" Zarachiel's voice had increased in octaves, higher than a human's own voicebox.

Angels could increase their voice if needed for order during an important discussion in their home of Heaven.

Everyone else in the room, minus Sunset, winced and covered their ears from Zarachiel's God-like voice.

He and Samael were close to their father, and were almost equals in power. Samael was the master over light whereas Zarachiel himself could use light to create souls and in turn, create life. Zarachiel had made every animal, bird, insect and plant on Earth, and Adam had named them all.

Whenever a plant was dying, or struggling to stay alive, Zarachiel could send his light to it and rejuvinate it, coaxing it back to life.

His eyes were a golden color. The exact same color as his father's and mother's own.

His wings were flared behind his back, raised to strike or flap at a mere subconscious choice. The two white and gold limbs at an equal length of each other. His wings were white with a gold stripe streaking across them on opposite sides.

Sunset placed a hand on her father's shoulder, calming him down from his murderous rage.

Now calmed, he put his wings away and took a deep breath. His eyes widened in what he had seen as he turned to face his baby girl.

Sunset had golden wings with red stripes that faced opposite sides. The wings were the same length and size of his own. Fifteen foot in length and a meter in height.

Smiling with joy and pure adoration for his daughter, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, using his wings as a protective coocoon around her back.

The crowd around them watched in awe and shock at the father-daughter display. Mortal minds were not meant to know of divinity. Once a mortal had seen an angel's wings, they were bent on finding anything holy or angelic and would kill demons and anything unholy "in the name of God and His angels." This led to the creation of True Believers. That was the final straw and all angels were forbidden from having contact with any and all humans.

"So Sunset's an angel?"
"Is she immortal?"
"Are we all going to Hell?"

Question after questions was thrown at Zarachiel and Sunset. He could see his daughter was struggling to answer them and was barely able to keep it together.

Without thinking, he tucked Sunset's wings away, pulled her into his arms and took off, flying away from the school so Sunset could think clearly.

This was the final straw! Now he understood what happens to the human mind once it is exposed to Pure Divinity. The only humans unaffected were Adam, Lillith and Eve as they were created by God Himself, making them immune to the sight of Divinity.

Sunset snuggled deeper into her father's arms, wanting him to hold her more. A childlike desire to be held.

What Sunset uttered next brought Zarachiel a joy he thought he would never get to witness.

"I love you, daddy."

The archangel of life smiled, and pressed a gentle kiss to his daughter's forehead, easing the physical pains on her body and the stress in her mind.

He could create life, heal life and even kill life if he had to. He would never murder any being of his creation. He would help his creations past their natural lifespan move on to the afterlife. He hated seeing his creations in pain. Such was the suffering for everything mortal in the world. He would gently ease their soul and coax it from their body, then send them straight to their own made paradise, the Rainbow Bridge. A place where every animal, bird and insect would be restored to a young and healthy form, eternal and no longer in pain.

He stared down at his now asleep daughter, feeling her light breaths against his skin.

"I love you, too, my shimmering sun."

All Along The Watchtower.

Sunset and Zarachiel had flown back to their apartment in the span of seconds. They landed and tucked their wings away from sight of anyone watching.

Sunset walked into her room and sat on her bed. She unfurled her wings and looked at them, gazing over the red and gold feathers that created the large celestial limb.

She noticed that her father had seemed overjoyed when he saw her wings for the first time. Deep down she felt she didn't deserve wings, as it would make her an alicorn.

Sunset's self-hatred was still rooted deep, and it would take a lot of healing to fix herself. She knew that her teachers, Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna had forgiven her. Even her new friends had also forgiven her for what she had done.

She hoped her father would approve of her new friends. She forgave Octavia, Lyra, Bon-Bon, Derpy and Trixie after the Battle Of The Bands. After talking with them she'd befriended them and gotten to know them better than she knew her former friends.

Trixie, to her surprise, loved cooking and wanted to know more about Equestrian magic. Vinyl had invited her to one of her nightclub parties. Octavia would also turn up to play with Vinyl. Derpy also loved baking and would often bake with Trixie after school had finished.

She'd also managed to befriend The Dazzlings. To her surprise, the amulets they wore caused them nothing but constant hunger and strife. Once they had been destroyed the three sisters felt so much better and thanked Sunset for it.

Lightning Dust had spent time with her playing soccer and teaching each other new and different skills. Aria had taught Sunset multiple martial arts. Sonata taught her how to bake Tacos, Derpy taught her how to bake muffins and Trixie taught her how to bake Brownies.

She loved her new friends. It helped her deal with the students who sent in messages to Anon-A-Miss. They'd tried to apologize to her, but it wasn't sincere or truly meant.

Sunset smiled and played a few riffs on her guitar, choosing to play Sunshine by the Reign Of Kindo. It had become her favorite song to play and listen to when she felt down.

Though she would never admit it, she missed her mother, Princess Celestia. How she wished she could be in her mother's hooves once more, kept safe and warm under her wings.

She shed a tear as it dripped down her cheek and inbetween her guitar strings. She hoped that her mother could forgive her, but she knew she'd never get to hear it from her.

"Because I'm a coward and too scared to face her." Sunset thought to herself as she kept on playing till she finished the song.

Once the calming and upbeat melody finished, she went through her playlist to find which song she could try and play.

She was interrupted by her father walking into her room. Zarachiel gazed at Sunset, noticing the tearstains on her cheeks. He walked over and sat down next to Sunset on her bed.

"You okay, kiddo?" He asked softly, tussling her hair as he unfurled his wings. He moved his left one and wrapped it around his little fledgling in comfort.

Sunset sighed as she leaned into the wing. She felt drowsy ever so slightly and rested her head on her father's shoulder.

Zarachiel smiled and ran his fingers through Sunset's hair. Eventually, she fell asleep, a smile on her lips. Zarachiel quietly left her room and stared over the balcony.

Suddenly, a flap of wings made itself known behind him as Zarachiel turned around to face his brother.

The angel in question had white skin, black hair, blue eyes and wore a white button up shirt with the top button undone. The angel was also wearing a blue tie, wore a cream-colored trenchcoat and wore black boots.

"Hello, Zarachiel." Castiel said, his eyes showing sadness behind them. Lucifer, Amenadiel, Zarachiel, Ariel, Sariel and Castiel were their own clique of siblings when they were growing up.

"What do you want, Cas?" Growled Zarachiel, his white and gold wings flared in anger. Castiel unfurled his own golden wings as the two brothers stared each other down.

"Leave Castiel, you're not wanted nor needed here. Go back to Sam and Dean Winchester. And don't forget Jack." Zarachiel remarked, furling his wings back in.

"I merely want to meet my niece. Is that such a bad thing?" Castiel questioned. He'd always respected and cared about Zarachiel. Even when he'd been banished alongside Lucifer he'd still cared about him.

"She's asleep. Dad knows she needs it. She's been through a lot lately. I'm not adding more stress to what she's going through right now." Zarachiel retorted.

The bickering of the two siblings was enough to wake Sunset from her sleep. She yawned and walked out to the balcony. She looked over at the man opposite her father.

"Dad, who are you talking to?" Sunset asked, taking her eyes off of the trenchcoat-wearing angel in front of her.

Zarachiel sighed, rubbing the bridge of his nose. This was not how he wanted Sunset to meet him.

"Sunset, this is my brother, your Uncle Castiel. Castiel, this is my daughter Sunset Shimmer." Sunset looked over at Castiel and shook his hand, catching the Seraphim off guard.

"Oh, erm, hey kid. What my brother says is true. I'm sorry I never got to meet you earlier. It's nice to meet you." Castiel said, smiling somewhat.

Sunset shot her father a confused look as Castiel just chuckled.

"I must be getting back to The Bunker now. It was nice to meet you. Perhaps we could spend some time together?" Castiel suggested as he flew off.

Zarachiel just sighed once more, earning a giggle from Sunset as she went back to her room to sleep.

Girls, Girls, Girls.

Zarachiel had given himself a backstory to live in the human version of Equestria. He was born in a very rich noble family who were billionaires.

Sunset and himself had moved into a nice house. The walls were gray with rectangular windows. On the left side of the house was a small driveway. The roof of the building was a slightly dark Grey.

Outside the house were neatly trimmed rectangular grass bushes.

The interior of the home had magnolia paint and the liviing room had a plush brown carpet. Sunset's room had bright orange walls and a queen-sized bed. The room was large enough and had a giant TV hung on the wall.

In the upper left side of the room was Sunset's guitar neatly sat next to the amplifier. Sunset's covers were a mix of different shades of red, yellow and orange. She also had an en-suite bathroom as did Zarachiel.

Sunset's new friends had decided to hang out with her at her place. Luckily, Zarachiel approved of them, deeming them better friends than The Rainbooms.

Sunset had made Chocolate Brownies with Trixie, Derpy, Sonata and Adagio. Lyra and Octavia were practicing their music which Zarachiel had seemingly taken a strong liking to, reminding him of the gentle hymns of Heaven. It felt nostalgic for him.

Bon-Bon was plannning to arrive later after she'd finished making the different types of candy for her friends. Vinyl was scrolling through her music playlist.

Sunset and Trixie were discussing Equestrian magic with Adagio, Aria and Sonata.

Suddenly, Zarachiel heard a knock on the door behind him. He walked to the door and opened it to find Ariel, Sariel, Jophiel and Remiel.

Jophiel and Remiel were his older sisters who had spent much of his childhood as a fledgling taking care of him and his siblings.

Ariel and Sariel were his little sisters whom he loved and was protective over. They all hadn't visited him in millenia. It stung him to his core that they hadn't even come down to see him or sent him a letter. It would have been nice.

"What do you all want, sisters?" Zarachiel growled. He was furious with them. The only one who had attempted to make amends as of recent was Castiel whom he fought against during Lucifer's rebellion all those millenia ago.

"What do you mean, brother? We're here to see our niece. We brought gifts!" Jophiel squealed, running up to him as she hugged him tightly. A human or demon would've died in the grip, but he could withstand it.

"Jophiel is right, little brother, we wish to see our niece. Is that so wrong of us?" Remiel butted in, extending her eagle-like wings before furling them away from sight.

"Last I heard, you threatened to kill Linda over Charlie, because he was a nephilim. Who's to say you won't try again here and now?" Zarachiel asked, folding his arms as he glared at his big sister.

Remiel sighed. She'd deserved that. She really did want to see her niece. From what Father had told them, he'd already known about her, and planned to come down himself and meet her.

"Look, brother, I know you don't trust me after what happened last time with little Charlie." She began, "But I promise you I will never repeat that mistake again." Remiel vowed. She hoped it'd be a way to convince him.

Zarachiel sighed, he didn't know if he could trust them. He wanted to give them a chance but was scared that they'd try and take Sunset from him.

"Very well, you may come in." He began, "But one wrong move and I will get Luci or Amenadiel involved, understand?" He begrudgingly answered. Surprisingly to him, Remiel and his other sisters hugged him, showing they'd forgiven him many millenia ago.

The two archangels and angels walked into the house, trying to find their niece.

Sunset softly walked down the stairs, a brownie in hand as she looked to her father, then to the other women around him.

"Uh, hi? Who are you guys?" Sunset asked, noticing the sudden pained expression on the four females.

Ariel and Sariel turned to their older brother, a look of hurt and betrayal flashed across their faces.

"Y-You never told her about any of us?" Ariel asked, she couldn't believe her own niece didn't know about her and her other aunts and uncles as well as her grandparents.

"How could you?" Sariel said, her lower lip quivering. She wasn't really upset, she'd used it on him to get him to stay with her when she and Ariel were young fledglings.

"I was angry and hurt. I still am. The only one who's made contact so far is Castiel." Zarachiel growled, wanting them to either apologize or they could leave.

Ariel took it upon herself to pull Sunset into a crushing hug. Ariel had created all animals with the help of her older brother Zarachiel and their father.

"Hi sweetie! I'm your Auntie Ariel!" Ariel happily squealed, already taking a liking to her niece.

"You have very vibrant hair, sweetness. What's your name?" Sariel asked, gazing over her niece's features.

"Um, my name is Sunset Shimmer, and thanks." Sunset answered, blushing at the compliment as she twirled a string of her hair around her finger.

"You said Castiel was here, brother? Where is he now?" Remiel asked, wanting to know where her other younger brother had gotten to.

"He's in The Bunker with Jack Kline and Sam and Dean Winchester down in Lebanon, Kansas, Smith County." Zarachiel answered. He hoped it would be enough to please Remiel.

Jophiel had gone over to learn about her niece. The two other angels had asked Sunset questions they had which she had answered.

"Would it be alright with you if we saw what your wings looked like? I bet they're like your dad's." Jophiel asked as Sunset nodded, backing up so she would have space.

Once she had some clear space, she unfurled her gold and red wings, surprising Ariel, Sariel and Jophiel who's jaws were dropped in awe. Once they'd seen them, Sunset furled them away.

Ariel had given Sunset a Phoenix egg, one that she had created using her gift of creating life. The egg cracked and eventually opened, revealing a small, frail baby phoenix which grew in mere seconds into an adult female phoenix. The red fiery bird flew and perched on Sunset's right arm.

Sunset smiled at it and decided on a name. "I know what I'm going to call you. How do you like Philomena?" Sunset asked the bird. Philomena cawed softly, agreeing with Sunset.

Philomena moved from Sunset's right arm to her shoulder. Sunset walked over and hugged Ariel, smiling happily as Ariel reciprocated the affectionate gesture.

Sariel had given Sunset a cookbook of classic and exotic recipes. Sariel had always loved food and cooking. She'd seen and tasted some of the food many famous chefs had made.

The group of archangels and angels spent the day talking with Sunset and telling her about the rest of her Heavenly family.

Ashes.

Author's Note

Sunset is a nephilim, the child of an angel and a human. So is baby Charlie, the son of Dr. Linda Martin and Amenadiel.

Rory Morningstar is the daughter of Lucifer Morningstar and Dt. Chloe Decker. She's also Trixie Espinoza's younger and half-sister.

In the next chapter, our favorite Crime-Solving Devil gets to meet his niece.

Should I have God and Goddess come and meet her and Zarachiel first? Or should I have Lucifer come and meet her? Let me know in the comment section below.

Ashes.

Zarachiel was preening Sunset's wings as he heard the flutter of wings behind him. Zarachiel had learned to differentiate his sibling's wing sounds such as flapping or furling to tell who it was.

Just as he finished removing the last out of place feathers, he turned around and came face-to-face with Amenadiel.

Amenadiel had black skin and brown eyes. He was six foot tall and was Zarachiel's older brother. He was the first-born angel in Heaven. No matter the clique of angels. He was the eldest of all angels residing in Heaven.

Sunset got up and turned around, facing her uncle. She looked to her father for help as he sighed.

"Zarachiel, who is this woman?" Amenadiel asked, moving a hand in Sunset's direction.

"Amenadiel, this is my daughter Sunset Shimmer. Sunset, this is my older brother and your uncle Amenadiel." Zarachiel introduced as he walked over and hugged Amenadiel, who returned the gesture.

Sunset walked over and gently hugged the angel, catching him off guard. Amenadiel looked over to his younger brother, silently asking for an explanation.

Zarachiel sat his older brother down and explained everything to Amenadiel, who looked shocked, which then morphed into a soft smile.

"She hasn't met Linda or Charlie yet!" Amenadiel said, smiling excitedly. He didn't mean what he said as an insult. He couldn't wait for his newest niece to meet his son. After hearing what Sunset had been through, he wanted her to meet more of their family. She hadn't even met Lucifer yet.

The flutter of wings behind them confirmed Ariel, Sariel and Castiel were there.

The twin sister angels walked over and hugged Amenadiel. They turned and hugged their niece as Sunset melted into the hug.

Castiel looked at his older brother and hugged him, patting him on the back. A gesture he'd learned from Sam and Dean Winchester.

Zarachiel smiled at the small family reunion. Sunset hadn't met his mother or father yet. He felt it would be better for him to meet Lucifer, Chloe, Trixie, Rory and Charlotte, or Charlie as she preferred to be called.

Chloe had been attacked by Dromos with a Demon Conversion Blade, which had turned her into a demon. Lucifer had taken her down into Hell to take care of her and help her adapt to life in Hell.

During her time there with Lucifer, the two of them had decided to have sex and created their newest child, Charlie. She too was named after Charlotte Richards.

Zarachiel smiled and walked into the living room, spending time with Sunset and the rest of his angelic siblings.

He'd missed spending time with his brothers and sisters in Heaven. He knew it was partly his own fault and took blame for the part he played in the war.

He vowed that from now on, he'd support, take care of and look after his daughter no matter what. She was very important to him. Nephilim or not, she was family.

He knew she'd need to meet her mother, Princess Celestia, again. It would help fix things between them.

For now, he relished watching his brothers and sisters spend time with Sunset and learn about her, in turn them teaching her about life in Heaven and what they used to get up to.

He looked forward to the future and hoped it would get better for Sunset after the Anon-A-Miss fiasco.

Crime-Solving Devil.

Author's Note

Charlie(Charlotte) Morningstar is the biological daughter of Dt. Chloe Decker and Lucifer Morningstar. She's Aurora Morningstar's sister and Trixie Espinoza's half-sister as is Rory.

Crime-Solving Devil.

Zarachiel sat on the right side couch in the living room as he sipped a glass of Scotch Whiskey. Like Lucifer, he had a good taste in alcohol.

As he went to go and get another glass, he heard the flapping of wings behind him. Zarachiel turned around to face his brother.

Lucifer was wearing a black suit jacket, purple long-sleeved shirt with cufflinks and had louboutins. Lucifer had white skin, dark brown hair and brown eyes. He stood at a height of six foot three.

"You look worse for wear." Lucifer commented, pouring himself a drink as he sat down next to his brother.

"No shit." Zarachiel retorted, sipping back his glass of Scotch. It took a lot of alcohol to get an angel drunk.

"According to Amenadiel and Remiel I have a niece. Since when did you tie the knot?" Lucifer teased. Smirking as Zarachiel rolled his eyes at the other archangel.

Zarachiel called Sunset down as she silently walked down the stairs. She walked into the living room and eyed Lucifer.

"Is this another one of my uncles, dad?" Sunset asked, sighing as she sat down and used her magic to summon a Root Beer.

"Yeah, kid. This is your uncle Lucifer." Zarachiel answered. He explained about how he met, started dating and married Celestia. He also told the former ruler of Hell about what Anon-A-Miss had done.

As Zarachiel told Lucifer about it, the ruler of Hell's eyes flashed red. He was furious! How dare a bunch of pre-teens think they could get away with using his niece as a scapegoat!

They needed to be punished, to be made aware of what they had done was crossing the line. He wasn't afraid to call in favors to defend his family.

Lucifer sipped at his glass of Whiskey as he processed everything his brother had told him, He too was a father. Both Rory and Charlotte were his children and he loved them. Rory and Charlie were close siblings and always looked out for each other.

Despite not having blood relations with Trixie, they still treated her like family.

Lucifer walked over to the Grand Piano in the room and started to play Wonderwall on the Grand Piano.

Sunset sang along with her uncle as he played the tune on the piano. Soon the song came to an end and Sunset sat down on the left side couch.

Zarachiel was stunned by Sunset's singing voice. She sang so much like her mother, Princess Celestia. Both of them had a low, soft singing voice. Though he knew she got her singing voice partially from him.

Sunset decided to go to bed, leaving Lucifer and Zarachiel to talk. The two discussed their lives and what they had been up to. She'd felt exhausted dealing with the fallout of Anon-A-Miss and every single student apologizing to her for how they treated her because of the account when it was active.

Eventually, Lucifer unfurled his large and majestic white wings and took off, heading back to his original universe, the one their father had made.

Don't Look Back In Anger.

God watched from His throne in Heaven. He'd watched as His son found his long lost daughter. He'd watched as he'd comforted her, protected her, introduced her to her Heavenly family.

He couldn't be prouder of one of His archangels. Despite what many humans believed, He never wanted Lucifer away from Him for all eternity! He wanted him to return to Heaven eventually.

Contrary to what every angel believed, Lucifer included, his banishment wouldn't kill him if he tried to return, but would purify his body and restore him to completion. It would make him whole again.

He sighed and rubbed His temple. However, He soon came up with a plan as to how He could come down to Earth without alerting Zarachiel, Sunset or Lucifer.

Zarachiel and Sunset had been invited to LUX, one of Lucifer's nightclubs. God, without informing them, sent them to the original universe.

Sunset and Zarachiel stood around as some of the women danced whilst others got drunk or were raving.

Suddenly, the fatherly archangel had tuned in on a presence,

"Hello, my son." Spoke a deep voice from behind. The voice radiated love, calmness and safety.

Zarachiel knew who that voice was. It was Him.

"Hello, Dad. The word was spat with anger and distrust. How dare he think he can just try to be in his life and try to mend things. Dad had avoided him for centuries whilst Zarachiel himself was doing his duties, which were to create any life form he wished and teach it.

Not only that his dad had avoided him, but also every one of his siblings. He'd even gone as far as to abandon Samael, or Lucifer as he demanded to go by these days.

"I see you have a daughter now. You have some explaining to do." God crossed His arms and narrowed His eyes at His other most rebellious son. Both Zarachiel and Samael had not asked for much except Free Will.

"I don't have to explain shit to you. You avoided all of us for centuries and now you want to be in our lives again?" Zarachiel was furious, no, beyond furious. Because of his father, Zarachiel had missed several years of Sunset's life. If he could reverse time, he'd raise Sunset with her mother and his wife, Celestia, all over again. He wouldn't fail his daughter again. Nor his wife. He wouldn't fail Luna, Cosmos and Galaxia either.

"I can't say that I blame you. I caused you to miss out on your daughter's life. I did not realize at the time you had a family of your own. At least let me be in my granddaughter's life. Please. Let me make up for what I've done to you. From here on out, you will stay here in this world or in Equestria. I want you to be a better dad than me. Be in Sunset's life and be the dad to her that I never was to you or your siblings. " God saw the anguished expression behind His son's eyes.

God never wanted to cause His son and his other children so much pain. Had He really been that absent to them? Had He truly spent more time watching over humanity? Or creating more lesser angels? God felt ever so ashamed. He knew He was guilty, He wouldn't deny it.

"S-So you're my grandpa? The Almighty God himself is my grandpa?" Sunset looked nervously to her father, using her body language as a way to ask for help.

"My beautiful grandchild, I would never hurt you. I'm not unfair and I'm certainly not cruel. I am sorry, I truly am. I am the reason your father missed out on your early life. If there's anyone to blame it's me. Not him." God didn't want His own granddaughter to hate her father because of His selfish actions. Got felt complete disgust with himself for letting things get this far.

God looked to the side and gazed heavenside, calling to his wife, The Goddess Of All Creation. She flew down from the heavens and gazed at her fallen son with guilt and sadness.

"Hello, husband." The sultry feminine voice of Charlotte Richards spoke as She stared at her husband.

"Hello, wife." God wanted to let His wife meet their son again and also their granddaughter.

"Zarachiel, son, my sweet boy. It has been so long. So many centuries." The goddess's eyes filled with tears of pain, guilt and sadness. She'd missed him, Samael and Amenadiel ever so much.

She placed her hands over his cheeks and gently ran her thumbs over them, gazing into Her son's golden eyes.

"Hi, mom." The word was spoken coldly. She too had been absent because of his father. He'd locked Her in a cell deep in the dark pits of hell.

"Who is the woman standing next to you, son?" Goddess was confused, who was she? The girl held some resemblance to Her son, the same almost matching skin tone, hair and face.

"Mom, this is my daughter, Sunset Shimmer. Named after a setting sun I once watched in the hospital a few minutes after she was born. I and her mother, my wife, Princess Celestia agreed the name fit her. Her hair matches that of a setting sun, gold and red. And the fact she gets the gold hair from me.

"I have a granddaughter!?" Goddess couldn't believe the fact that one of Her sons was already married! And the fact he had a daughter! She was so proud of Her son. All of Her other children were unmarried. Besides Lucifer, that is. She'd found out from Lucifer that Amenadiel had a son named Charlie. She'd have to go and meet him and Amenadiel some time.

"H-Hi grandma." Sunset stuttered nervously, shy at meeting her grandmother.

"Zarachiel, why was I never told about this!? Why didn't you invite me to your wedding? I want to meet your wife. But first." Goddess wrapped Her granddaughter up in a tight hug, Overjoyed at having a granddaughter.

Zarachiel stared over at his father who was smiling at him. Not just because he had given them a grandchild, but because of his progress. From his fall from his home of Heaven to finding himself in Equestria and eventually getting married, leading to finding out he was going to be a dad.

And a smile full of love and pride.

"Zarachiel, son, I have something to tell you that I have wanted to say for a very long time." God wanted to tell His son how He truly felt about everything.

"I love you, son, and I'm proud of the man you've become. I forgive you and Samael for the rebellion. I was angry at you, your mother, humanity and your brother. I should have talked it out, no, we should have all talked it out. Instead your brother and I resorted to violence. As did your mother. However you always tried going for the peaceful route as did Samael before he decided to use violence." God couldn't help but express that He wasn't mad at His sons anymore for causing the rebellion. All they ever did was speak their mind and express their thoughts. What was so wrong with that back then that it made Him so angry with them?

Zarachiel for the first time in many millenia, broke down and sobbed against his father.

God managed to catch a few words amongst the sobs His son tried to withhold. Millenia of pent up longing, shame, hurt and betrayal, left to fester due to God's own shame and cowardice.

It took a few moments of holding His son and listening to make out what he was trying to say.

"I never wanted to fight."

"I just wanted you to listen."

"I wasn't trying to be disrespectful."

I'm sorry, Dad. I'm so sorry."

God couldn't help but try to help comfort His son. He had neglected not only Zarachiel and Samael, but every single one of His angels. Not only his archangels, but also His lower class angels.

"You are forgiven, my angel of creation. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you and your brother. I forgive you both."

Riptide.

Zarachiel, Lucifer and Sunset were in Heaven. Amenadiel was there as support should anything go wrong.

They were walking until they came across a field of grass where many of his angelic siblings were spending their free time.

They noticed two siblings in particular, two who had betrayed both Zarachiel and Lucifer eons ago. Both the siblings had cyan eyes but different hair colors. The sibling on the left had blonde locks like their mother whereas the sibling on the right had purple and pink hair.

"Well, well, well. Look who it is. The slutty angel Panty and food obsessed Stocking. What a surprise to see you're still in Heaven. I can't believe Dad would let you two stay here after all you two have done on Earth." Zarachiel stated with confusion, anger and a slight sense of hurt and betrayal. He'd despised the both of them ever since they had betrayed him and Samael during the rebellion. And also because one was obsessed with sex, like Lucifer, and the other obsessed with food.

"We deserve to be here, unlike you, Amenadiel and Lucifer, asshole." Panty growled angrily, trying to seem threatening to her older brother.

"You and Stocking betrayed me and Lucifer during his rebellion. All we wanted was Free Will. Yet you two get to be off the hook for being obsessed with sex and food." Zarachiel answered dangerously, his wings raised over his shoulder blades, ready to attack them.

Panty brought out her own wings. Due to not being archangels like Zarachiel and Lucifer, they had shorter and smaller wings. It made them weaker fliers.

"I'm surprised both Mom and Dad allowed you and Stocking to remain in Heaven." Zarachiel taunted, agitating the angel as she growled and clenched her fists.

"Brother, stop. We don't want to fight." Amenadiel pleaded. He didn't want his family falling apart over what had happened many millenia ago.

"Well if the little cretins can't handle the truth, perhaps we shouldn't even be here to begin with. It would've prevented more family problems." Lucifer argued, cracking his knuckles, ready for a fight.

"Oh it is so on!" Panty yelled. Both Lucifer and Panty started to throw attacks at each other, Lucifer dodging every hit Panty tried to land on him.

"You're worse than Uriel at fighting." Lucifer taunted, dodging another punch from his little sister.

"Brother, stop!" Amenadiel yelled, about to break up the celestial fight when Stocking flew over and landed in front of him to try and intercept him.

"I agree that Panty is a total bitch, but she's still my sister!" Stocking screamed, throwing herself at Amenadiel as the two began to join in on the fight.

Zarachiel sighed and facepalmed, shaking his head as he got up and went to intervene to stop the fight. His plan failed when Panty noticed him from the corner of her eye as she hit him across the cheek, sending him slightly backwards.

"Is that all you've got you little sex-crazed whore?" Zarachiel taunted, recovering immediately from the punch.

Sunset had seen the fight and felt that it had gone too far. Why did her two other aunts hate her dad and uncles Amenadiel and Lucifer? Sure, Lucifer caused a rebellion but all he ever wanted was Free Will. He'd tried going down the peaceful route but he'd lost the option after no one saw his side of things.

Sunset got up and walked to the courtyard to stop the fight. She didn't want her family split even further.

"Dad! Stop! Please! Daddy stop!" Sunset begged, slightly whimpering as tears had begun to trickle down her cheeks. Her wings drooping behind her back. She tried to pull her father off of her aunt when Panty accidentally struck her.

Zarachiel heard Panty's fist connect with a face and turned to the direction of the punch. What he saw broke his heart.

Sunset laid on the ground on her side. Her right cheek had turned red from the punch she had taken from her aunt.

Zarachiel was furious, protective father instincts suddenly strengthening him as he aimed for Panty.

He turned to Sunset and lowered his fist and sighed. He turned and ran over to Sunset as he cradled her in his arms.

"Sunset! My shimmering sun, wake up! Please! I'm sorry, I didn't mean for the fight to escalate so far. Please! Wake up!" Zarachiel begged to Sunset, wanting her to wake up. He knew he needed to apologise to her for getting her caught in the fight.

Sunset stirred, the bruise from her aunt's attack now gone, her celestial healing abilities having repaired the injured flesh.

The bacon-haired girl blinked her eyes and groaned.

Zarachiel let her leave the embrace he had her in, but to his surprise she leaned into his arms and closed her eyes, content to rest in her father's arms.

"Who's the girl? I heard her call you 'dad' and 'daddy' so what was that about?" Panty asked, confused at the girl calling her older brother those words.

"Panty, this is my daughter and both yours and Stocking's niece, Sunset Shimmer." Zarachiel introduced carefully, he didn't want Panty to hurt and attack his little girl again.

"WE'RE AUNTS!?" Both Panty and Stocking screeched at the same time. Their eyes wide in shock as their jaws dropped.

"Yes, Sunset is my daughter." Zarachiel stated, wrapping a wing protectively around Sunset's back.

"Hey, Sunset, right? I'm your auntie Panty. Catchy name and weird one huh?" Panty couldn't believe she had a niece! What was her life becoming now? She felt bad about hitting her niece across the face.

Panty could see that Sunset didn't seem to trust her. She couldn't blame her. First time meeting her aunt to be attacked and struck across the jaw.

"Hey, I'm sorry I hit you. I didn't intend to hurt you. I was just mad at your father for what he and Samael-"

"It's Lucifer now. Lu-ci-fer." Zarachiel stated, glaring at Panty coldly.

"As I was saying, I was just mad at your dad for what he and Lucifer did many millenia ago." Panty continued, she felt bad about holding such a grudge against her big brother for so long.

"I forgive you, auntie." Sunset whispered, feeling shy all of the sudden.

"You're such an adorable girl." Panty complimented, noticing the blonde streaks that came from her and Zarachiel's mother, The Goddess Of All Creation.

"T-Thanks." Sunset stuttered, getting up as Zarachiel gently preened her wings, removing any broken, bent or completely damaged feathers.

Once she had finished being preened, she felt much more relaxed as her wings furled into her back.

Stocking had come around after hearing the girl shout to Zarachiel and call him the words of which she thought he'd never get to hear.

"So, you're Sunset's dad? Since when did you become a dad?" Stocking questioned, she dusted herself off and went to introduce herself to her niece. She didn't want this first meeting with both herself and Panty to be why Sunset feared her own angelic family.

"About eighteen years ago, I found myself in a world called Equestria. One of it's princesses, Princess Celestia helped me out and gave my my own room. Around that time I fell head over heels for her and asked her out and she agreed. Soon enough we became a couple and a few years later we got married, making me the prince of Equestria. A few months later me and Celestia decided we wanted to have kids. I told her I wouldn't be able to as all angels were, or are sterile but we still tried."

Panty and Stocking gave their brother a sympathetic look. Before 'The Fall' as humanity had dubbed it, he and Lucifer had desired to find love and to eventually have young of their own. Finding out from their dad that they couldn't had broken their hearts.

"Eventually, my little shimmering sun here is born and I named her after the sunset which was around the time she was born. It was a fitting name. A few days later dad yanks me back here without allowing me to say goodbye to my daughter or my wife. I soon sensed an angelic presence similar to mine but one combined with solar magic."

Panty and Stocking nodded, they could tell where this was headed.

"I followed the presence and found myself in a human version of Equestria and tracked the signature to a school. I found the angelic sense and magic signature in a school gym, which is where I met Sunset. After chatting with her and getting to know her, as well as gazing at her and seeing a few resemblances to myself, I felt a connection to her." Zarachiel smiled softly as he wrapped a wing around Sunset's body, pulling her into his arms.

"After meeting Sunset's principal who reminded me of my wife, Princess Celestia, I saw slight resemblances from Principal Celestia on Sunset and figured out she was my daughter." Zarachiel continued in a soft and gentle voice. He ran his hand through Sunset's hair slowly, relaxing her.

"Wow. I can't believe dad took you from your wife and daughter. What a jackass." Panty said with sudden anger.

"After realizing I had missed out on my daughter's entire childhood and some of her life up to eighteen years old I went into a bad state of mind." Zarachiel recalled the hatred and anger he had at himself for missing out on Sunset's life.

"I lost my wings and my powers to create and heal life. I got them back after doing some deep self-searching and understanding myself. I call the idea Self-Actualization. An angel's experiences changes their views of life and of themselves. They do it to themselves subconsciously and undergo physical, mental and emotional change because of it. I and Amenadiel have been through it. So has Lucifer. Ask them. They'll tell you the same." Zarachiel added, smiling at his little girl with love. So much love.

"I never blamed you, dad. I blame grandpa for what he did and I know he does as well. So does grandma. You wouldn't have willingly left me and mom and decide to leave us for the rest of our long and immortal lives." Sunset squeezed her father's shoulder lovingly, nuzzling his arm.

"You're such a good dad, you know." Stocking said, she gave her brother and niece a soft smile.

"I forgot to introduce myself. I'm your auntie Stocking." Stocking hugged her niece and giggled at how adorable Sunset's smile was.

"You were right, brother. I lost my wings, my powers. I fell again and again. You know? And getting back up, well, that was the most empowering experience of my life." Amenadiel said, smiling at his little sisters as they too smiled at him.

A family fixed by their niece. They owed it to Sunset. She'd fixed their angelic family by merely talking to them all and telling them different sides of the story so that each angel could understand it not only from their own view but also from how everyone else saw it. Including Lucifer, Amenadiel, Zarachiel, Jophiel, Remiel and Uriel.

"I'm proud of you, Sunset." Zarachiel softly spoke, his smile unwavering as he grinned at his daughter.

"You're welcome. And I love you, dad. I love you, mom and my aunts and uncles that I've met so far." Sunset answered happily, hugging her father, uncles and aunts.

Their family would still need to be worked on, but they were all on the road to recovery. Mostly God, Goddess, Lucifer and Zarachiel.

Stand By Me.

Zarachiel and Sunset were in their home when God teleported in, catching them off guard.

"I apologize for interrupting you both. It's important." God then turned to Sunset, a sad expression on his face.

"Granddaughter, your teacher, Mr Cranky, is dying. I wish for you to help him ascend into Heaven." God requested softly. Sunset nodded firmly as she unfurled her large gold and red wings. She took off in the span of seconds.

Sunset eventually landed in the hospital, finding the room her dying teacher was in. She'd furled her wings in beforehand. She walked over to his bedside and sat down in the chair on the left.

"S-Sunset S-Shimmer? Is that you? W-Why are you here?" The grey-skinned teacher asked weakly, barely able to move a limb. Sunset took notice and took his hands into her own.

"Just know that you've always been my favorite student, Sunset. I'm proud of you, and I forgive you for everything. You never were Anon-A-Miss." Cranky smiled, chuckling weakly as Sunset chuckled with him. She noticed his heartbeat was getting weaker.

"I don't want any pity, kid. I've not been the best person in the world. I've made many mistakes and haven't owned up to em', but that doesn't mean I don't regret making them. Life is about making mistakes and learning from them. Success is caused by failure." He coughed weakly, eyes closing as he slipped into death's grip. God had seen how he had forgiven Sunset and mentored her. His soul would be sent straight to Heaven as a reward for what he did.

Sunset scooped Cranky into her arms and unfurled her wings. She took off and flew into Heaven, carrying Cranky's soul into the eternal paradise. She was barely holding back tears as she flew.

Eventually, she flew through the gates of Heaven and brought him to where all the souls were. She sat him next to the lake and trees that were occupied by many others who had passed.

Cranky awoke to bright blue skies and lush green grass. He stared up at Sunset and noticed her giant red and gold wings. His eyed widened in shock for a second before his lips curled into a small smile.

"Sunset?" He called, the nephilim turned around and faced him. She smiled and flew back down to Earth and her home that she and a few of her aunts and uncles lived in. They had decided to spend some time on Earth to bond with their niece.

"Thanks sir, for everything." Sunset croaked out, smiling through her tears as she landed back home and cried into her father's chest.

It broke Zarachiel's heart to see Sunset so upset. It seemed her teacher meant a lot to her. Matilda passed days after her husband passed. Instead of Sunset collecting her soul and transporting it to Heaven, Azrael would do it to ease the grief her niece was going through.

God sighed and sat down next to His granddaughter. He'd lost Azazel after he impersonated his brother Lucifer. Azazel, Michael and Lucifer were triplets. Azazel used his looks to impersonate his brother and cause a rebellion to blame it on him.

"I don't know what he meant to you, but I know that he will always be grateful to you for being there for him in his last moments. I've lost a son who caused the rebellion. It was never Samael, it was Azazel. And Uriel disobeyed all summons to return home to Heaven." God stated, looking down in sadness as he mourned his two sons. He could never replicate them which meant He wouldn't be able to bring them back.

"I'm so sorry Grandpa. I just...I miss him. I know he was my teacher and all but he was the first one to forgive me for what I'd done aside from my dad." Sunset admitted as God rubbed her back.

"You need a break from everything on Earth." God surmised, His face lit up with excitement. "How about you, your father, your mother and your aunt Luna come and spend some time in Heaven? Your aunts from your father's side are welcome to join us." God offered.

Sunset thought about it. She could do with a break. Anon-A-Miss had exhausted her. She would have to inform her friends she wouldn't be around for a few days.

"Take as long as you need to get everything planned, my granddaughter." God said, squeezing her shoulder as He teleported away.

"Did he just read my thoughts?" Sunset muttered to herself as she went went and sat down in the living room.

Wonderwall.

Author's Note

Carry On My Wayward Son is a favorite song of mine and a song I listen to frequently. It is also from the hit TV show Supernatural starring Misha Collins, Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, Mark Pellegrino, Alexander Calvert and Jim Beaver.

Another favorite song of mine is called Sunshine by The Reign Of Kindo. The song speaks to me on a personal level and soothes me when I am sad or stressed.

Wonderwall.

Sunset stood outside the statue she had used to come to the human version of Equestria. She was waiting for Twilight to come through.

She felt she needed to apologize to her, for not telling her about her depression and also because she hadn't informed the princess about her angelic family.

Suddenly, a flash of light caught the nephilim off guard as Twilight was booted out of the portal. She dusted herself off and was helped up by Sunset.

Twilight pulled the bacon-haired girl into a tight hug as the two sobbed against each other. The two eventually broke apart and gazed into each other's eyes.

"Twilight, I-I'm sorry." Sunset croaked, a few tears still in her eyes. "I'm sorry for not telling you. I just...It hurt. My friends abandoned and betrayed me. It was too much to handle." Sunset sobbed, looking away from her friend and mentor in friendship.

Twilight sighed and placed her hands on Sunset's shoulders, gazing into the girl's eyes. Her eyes held no hatred nor malice towards Sunset.

"I know. But I can't help you at all if you don't tell me these sort of things. We're friends, Sunset. They should have been better friends and stood by you." Twilight stated softly, her tone turning cold at the last part. What the rainbooms had done was inexcusable.

"I know. Things are better now. I have friends, a dad and a large family." Sunset explained as Twilight's expression became soft and gentle.

"I'm very happy for you, Sunset. You do deserve friends and you seem to have quite a few of them. I know they'll never betray you unlike the others. I'm sorry about that. I thought the version of my friends in this world were exactly like the ones back in Equestria." Twilight morosely stated.

"Thanks, Twilight." Sunset said, hugging her friend once more. Suddenly, Sunset's phone started to ring.

So you threw away your heart again?

Found a reason not to start again?

Sunset answered her phone and put it to her ear.

"Hi daddy, I'm fine, just talking to Twilight. She's the one from the mirror portal and also my pen pal. We're fine, see you soon daddy. Love you." Sunset said as she answered her father, ending the call.

The bacon-haired girl started to lead Twilight to her home. She couldn't fly them home as it would cause her to be noticed heavily and it would send any and all humans into a frenzy of fear and confusion.

She walked over to her car which was a black nineteen sixty seven Chevrolet Impala. It had been made by her grandpa God and her uncle Castiel as a gift. The vehicle was an exact clone of the one Sam and Dean Winchester owned.

Sunset slid into the driver's side and buckled up her seatbelt, Twilight doing the same. Sunset turned on the ignition and started to drive the two of them to her home. The engine roared to life as she carefully drove. Before he had died, Mr Cranky Doodle had also been a driving instructor and had helped her pass her driving test.

Suddenly, her emotions caused her magic to flare up and caused the radio to turn on. The song that was being played felt ironic to her.

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

Sunset drove as the song kept playing. According to her uncle Castiel, the song was a favorite of his and Sam and Dean Winchester's.

Eventually, the redhead reached the outside of the building. She stopped at the front of her home and parked the car. She and Twilight got out as they entered Sunset’s home.

She couldn't wait to introduce Twilight to the rest of her family. She hadn't replied to any of her messages in the journal due to how busy she had been. She wanted Twilight to know she was happy and was in a good place.

The two sat down and discussed about their day-to-day lives with each other.

Champagne Supernova.

Author's Note

Sunset feels emotionally and mentally exhausted due to the fall of Anon-A-MIss, her ex-friends trying to find her and aplogize to her. She's also dealing with students at CHS constantly apologizing even though they don't truly mean it.

Next chapter: Archangel Azrael and Archangel Gabriel will make their appearance. Sunset will also travel to Equestria with her father. God, her grandfather will help out by sending her in her human body. He also placed a spell in her mind that allowed her to shapeshift between her pony and human form.

The father and daughter duo will go to Equestria to see Princess Celestia. Sunset is going back so she can reconcile with her mother. Zarachiel is going back so he can be with his wife and daughter.

Champagne Supernova.

Sunset led Twilight to the living room and introduced the princess to her father and the rest of her family.

Zarachiel shook Twilight's hand, earning a respectful nod from her. Castiel walked over and nodded firmly to the princess-turned human.

Amenadiel merely smiled at her, apologizing for Castiel's behaviour which Twilight happily accepted. Sunset introduced her penpal and mentor to her other aunts who waved at her and smiled.

As the family of angels got to know Twilight better, the door opened behind them to reveal a man with flowing dark brown hair and brown eyes. He stood at a height of five feet and wore a white robe covering his hair as the man pulled down the hood, revealing the identity of the stranger.

"J, son of Nazareth, Son of Mary and Son of Joseph? Is that you?" Zarachiel asked, joy in his tone at seeing his younger and half-brother again.

"The one and only me. I haven't been on Earth in years and so much has changed." Jésús, otherwise going by the nicknames Jace or simply J, smiled at his older brother.

He focused his gaze to the girl standing next to Zarachiel. The girl seemed to give off her father's angelic aura, but only partly. As if half of it were missing.

"Brother, who is this woman who stands next to you?" Jésús enquired, looking up at his older brother due to his small height.

Zarachiel only chuckled when Sunset unfurled her wings, catching his half-brother off guard. Twilight went slack-jawed at seeing her student's wings.

"She's my daughter." Zarachiel simply answered as Sunset furled her wings away and out of sight.

"Since when did you settle down and start a family, big bro?" Jésús asked, smiling at his older brother and niece. Most humans knew he was part of the Trinity made up of The Father, himself as The Son or 'The Lamb' and The Holy Spirit. Part of it was true as he was made by his father, but he was his own being entirely.

"Who's to say you weren't with Mary Magdalene all those years ago on Earth?" Zarachiel teased playfully. Jésús had loved Mary Magdalene. She was one of his disciples at the time.

As the family talked amongst themselves, Raphael burst through the door, her dark brown wings matching her hair color. Raphael stood at six foot, had white skin and blue eyes like their mother.

"Sorry I'm late, had to tidy the lab." Raphael said, as she went slack-jawed, staring at her brother.

"Understandable." Zarachiel simply answered, softly smiling at his sister.

"It's been so long, Zarachiel. I missed you, brother." Raphael said tearfully, rushing into her brother's arms as he hugged her tightly.

Sunset stared at her newest aunt, unsure of what to say and do. As the hug broke apart, Raphael landed her sights on the bacon-haired girl and made the instant connection between her brother and the girl in her arms.

"So, you're Zarachiel's daughter aren't you? I figured it out. You both have the same aura of angelic energy you give off." Raphael cooed softly, ruffling her niece's hair as she kissed Sunset's forehead. Both Raphael and Zarachiel could heal people.

"Yeah, my name's Sunset Shimmer. I've heard a lot about you from uncle Castiel and uncle Lucifer." Sunset replied, gently, hugging her aunt back.

Raphael turned to her brother, smiling softly. She felt proud of Zarachiel. He'd become a father and even though he hadn't known his daughter for very long, he'd been a very good father to her.

"You're a wonderful dad. She loves you so much. I can feel it. I'm proud of you, brother." Raphael said, still smiling as she sat down next to her niece. Raphael had been introduced to Twilight who was eager to know more of Sunset's angelic family. Not to study, but so that she could sleep at night knowing her friend was safe and had a loving family to support her.

Zarachiel walked over and hugged Sunset, wrapping his white and gold wings around her as she unfurled her own gold and red wings, shocking Raphael in the process. She wrapped her own wings around her father, content to hug him and not let go.

The Archangel of Life smiled and kissed his daughter's forehead, causing her to smile and sigh in contentment.

"I love you, kid." He whispered, feeling his daughter fall asleep in his arms.

"I love you too, dad." Sunset replied sleepily, feeling exhausted after everything that had happened with Anon-A-Miss, her ex-friends and their sisters, the CMC and the culprits behind the account.

The hug between father and daughter parted. Sunset walked upstairs to her room and fell asleep in her bed.

The family continued to converse with one another as the bacon-haired girl slept.

Count On You.

Zarachiel and Sunset were conversing with the other angels who were on Earth. They decided to have a family reunion on Earth, an idea given to Sunset by her grandfather, God. As they were talking, The fluttering of wings made itself known.

"Sup everybody?" Gabriel said, eyeing his older brother and sisters. His eyes landed on Zarachiel. He gazed at the bacon-haired female next to him. She seemed to radiate his aura, albeit half of it.

"She's your child. It'd be the only way to explain why she has half of your angelic aura, brother." Gabriel stated, smirking as he folded his arms. He unfurled his wings. The feathers were a sunshine yellow that became lighter on the primaries and darker on the secondary and tertiary feathers. Gabriel stood at a heigh of six foot. He had baby blue eyes and blond hair.

"Let me guess, you're one of dad's brothers, right?" Sunset asked, still coming to terms with the fact she was a nephilim, immortal, a child of an angel and God's granddaughter.

"Hit the nail on the head there, kiddo!" Gabriel praised the equestrian nephilim, playfully smiling at her. She had a fiery personality from what every other angel who'd met her had told him in Heaven. They were all surprised when Dad allowed her to exist. Every angel immediately accepted her into the family.

Despite knowing of her past, they all forgave her. They wouldn't hold a grudge on their niece, they didn't want to lose her like how they lost Zarachiel and Lucifer many millenia ago during the rebellion against their father.

Sunset walked over to Gabriel and hugged him, she was surprised when he hugged her back, reciprocating the affectionate gesture.

After every other angel who'd witnessed the moment, save her father, wanted a hug from her. After a while, she'd given all her angelic relatives a hug.

Gabriel furled his wings back in, triggering Sunset's inner instinct to unfurl her own.

She moved backwards to give herself enough room. Once she had done so, she unfurled her large red and gold wings. After extending them and ruffling them, she furled them back in as she rolled her shoulders backwards.

Castiel, Amenadiel and Gabriel conversed with her, asking her about her grades, friends and social life. As they were talking, Zadkiel landed silently, his violet wings shimmering in the sunlight. He furled his wings from visible sight. He'd heard about Zarachiel being on Earth and having a daughter.

"It's nice to finally meet you, Sunset. I've heard a lot about you from the others." Zadkiel greeted, shaking her hand. He'd been told about the Anon-A-Miss account caused by the three sisters of her ex-friends. He could only imagine Zarachiel's reaction.

"How did you get your wings?" Zadkiel asked curiously. He hoped he hadn't hit a sore spot for her by asking the said question. Anon-A-Miss was still a recent thing for her and was traumatic.

"I was in the auditorium, revealing who Anon-A-Miss was. Dad came on stage and shouted at everyone. When everyone began shouting, it became stressful, plus the recent back pain I'd had at the time which turned out to be my wings. They unfurled and pretty much I scared everyone once they realized what I am." Sunset explained, clicking her tongue at the memory.

Zadkiel chuckled, despite what Sunset, his niece had done, he forgave her. She'd learned from her mistakes and tried to be better. If no other human could see she had changed then it was on them and not her.

"I'm sorry you went through that." Zadkiel said, squeezing her shoulder gently. He'd grown to like her. Ever since the Anon-A-Miss fiasco, every angel wanted to meet her and keep her safe alongside her father. Each and every one of them cared for her. She was part of their large angelic family, nephilim or not.

Sunset smiled and walked over to her father, laying her head on his chest as she hugged him tightly. Zarachiel hugged back and moved a strand of hair out of her face.

"I love you, dad." Sunset muttered into his chest, earning 'aww's' from every female angel in their vincinity.

"I love you too, kid." Zarachiel replied, running a finger through his daughter's hair.

The angelic family decided to take a group picture to remember the event. As celestial beings they would always remember it no matter what. Each angel wanted a copy of the photo taken.

Soon, many of the angelic relatives had flown back up to Heaven. The only ones left on Earth were Zarachiel, Jophiel, Remiel, Sariel and Ariel.

Sunset got herself ready for bed and fell asleep shortly after, smiling as she slept peacefully for the first time in a long time.

I Will Always Love You.

Ever since Anon-A-Miss had revealed themselves, things had gotten much better for Sunset. She'd met many of her new aunts and uncles. She'd met her grandparents who were the literal creators of everything in the universe, including the one she lived in.

It took her a while to accept all of it. Though she loved her life, she missed Equestria terribly and had become homesick. She missed her mother, Princess Celestia. Sunset knew she'd been at fault and she'd tried to live with the guilt. She thought it'd be bearable and easy. It wasn't.

She missed being under her mother's wing, in every sense of the word. She'd missed sleeping against her mother's barrel. She missed spending time studying and bonding with her.

She hoped her mother would be able to forgive her for all the things she had done, both in that world and the one she lived in.

A lone tear dripped down the homesick equestrian's eye as she began to sob. How she wished she could take back what she said. She wanted to be with her mother again, in the royal gardens, under her wing and reading a book with her mother.

She'd fled and never came back, simply out of power lust, revenge and wanting to be Cadence's equal. She wanted her mother to be proud of her again, to feel loved and wanted.

Once her mother had taken in Cadance, the two of them had grown apart. She'd become jealous and tried to be superior to Cadance.

She was nothing but a whiny, selfish, egotistical brat back then. Ever since the Fall Formal, she'd changed for the better. The Friendship Games were an example of that.

Sighing sadly, she grabbed her guitar and started to play a soft and gentle tune. Music had always been able to soothe her anger. She had Ray and Philomena for that, too. She loved the both of her pets dearly.

As she was singing, her father came into her room, her Uncle Gabriel and Aunt Raphael in tow.

"You alright, kid?" Gabriel asked her, noticing the trails of tears prominent on her face.

"I miss the other world, the other Equestria. I miss mom and what we had. I've been homesick for so long and I can't take it anymore!" Sunset cried out, sobbing as she shut her eyes tightly.

Gabriel gave his brother a look that spoke 'Well don't just stand there, comfort her' as the Archangel of Life sat next to his daughter on her bed and wrapped her up in his wings. He used his aura to soothe her pain.

Raphael sat next to her niece, on the left of Sunset's bed. She gently placed two fingers on the girl's forehead as it began to glow softly for a few seconds before fading.

Gabriel gazed heavenside and called for their father, pleading silently for his assistance with Sunset. Even though he could alter reality and transport people to other realms, it took a lot out of him and he always asked his father first to do so.

Soon, God came down from Heaven. He gazed to Sunset, a soft and affectionate look in His eyes.

Sunset explained everything to her grandfather as He listened patiently, absorbing the information being given to Him.

God felt sympathy for His granddaughter. It was like a mirror image with Him and Lucifer in a way. Both Sunset and Lucifer rebelled. Lucifer rebelled against Him and Sunset rebelled against her mother, Princess Celestia.

"I can send you back to the other version of this world. I did create the both of them after all." God said, chuckling softly.

"Thanks, grandpa. Thanks so much!" Sunset cried out, hugging her grandfather tightly as he hugged her back.

"There is no need to thank me, my beautiful grandchild. You miss your mother and wish to make amends. I know your mother has forgiven you." It wasn't a lie. He knew everything, but sometimes He missed information when not focusing into the future constantly.

With a snap of his fingers, He transported his granddaughter, daughter and his two sons to Equestria.

Zarachiel, Raphael, Gabriel and Sunset landed in Equestria, falling to the ground rapidly. They unfurled their wings and braced themselves for impact as they crash landed into the Everfree Forest.

"Ugh" Sunset groaned, pulling herself to her feet. She furled her wings away. Surprisngly, no feathers were out of place.

Gabriel, Raphael and Zarachiel soon got up. A crater had formed where they had crash landed into the ground.

Once the small family looked presentable, they flew off towards Canterlot Castle.

Eventually, the group had made it to Canterlot. They landed next to the royal carriages and furled their wings away from sight.

As they walked down several halls towards the Throne Room, a bunch of guards came running towards them.

"Halt!" One guard cried, aiming a spear at Zarachiel, only to stop when another voice rang out behind the other guards.

"Stop! That's Princess Celestia's husband and the royal prince!" Shining Armor shouted. Shining had a white coat, a white and blue mane. His cutie mark was a six-pointed star inside a blue shield.

"Stand down!" Shining Armor commanded. The guards lowered their spears, muttering apologies to Zarachiel.

"Thanks Captain. It's good to see you again, bro." Zarachiel said, lowering himself to a knee as he gave Shining a hoofbump.

"It's good to see you too, Zarach. I apologize for the others. They're new and were only given a vague image of you." Shining Armor said, smiling at the Archangel of Life.

Once introductions were out of the way, they were lead to the Throne Room. As the doors were opened, both Princess Celestia and Sunset met each other's gaze. Celestia's was full of shock, awe and surprise. Sunset's were full of fear, nervousness and hurt.

Celestia walked down from her throne and embraced Sunset. She hugged her daughter as best she could due to Sunset being in human form.

Sunset realized immediately and used a transfiguration spell, turning herself into her original pony form.

She embraced her mother, sobbing into her fur, not wanting to let go. Celestia hushed her soothingly, running a hoof along her back comfortingly.

"I'm so sorry, mom." Sunset croaked out, her voice hoarse from how much she had cried.

"Shh, I forgave you a long time ago, my little sun." Celestia cooed softly, running a hoof through her daughter's mane.

"I-I just had to come here, to tell you myself how sorry I am for leaving you, for betraying and hurting you. I'm sorry, mom. I took your sunshine away." The bacon-haired unicorn said. She looked up at her mother, who had a shocked expression. She gazed to her both sides of her body and noticed her wings.

Because she was a nephilim, the child of an angel, she inherited wings from her father.

"Y-You became an alicorn." Celestia stuttered breathily. Her expression morphed from shock to joy as she scooped Sunset into her body, tickling and cuddling her.

"She missed you to the point Dad had to come down from Heaven and bring her, myself and my brother and sister here." Zarachiel said, not realizing he forgot to introduce his wife to his brother and sister.

"Oh! Celestia, this is my brother Gabriel. Gabriel this is my wife and Sunset's mother, Princess Celestia. Raphael this is my wife and Sunset's mother, Celestia. Celly, this is my sister, Raphael. The three of us, including Michael and Lucifer are Archangels and one of the highest ranking angels."

Celestia smiled, it was nice seeing her husband with his family. Ever since they'd been together he'd despised talking about them, mainly his parents.

"It's nice to meet the both of you." Celestia said, smiling at her husband and the other two Archangels in the room.

Sunset flew next to her father and reverted back to her human form. She'd always preferred her human form more than her pony form. It allowed her greater movement and agility.

"We aren't the only angels back home. There's way more of us. Amenadiel is the oldest out of all of us. The others are younger than us." Gabriel added, surprising Celestia.

"Just how many of your race are there?" Celestia asked, shocked at how many children her husband's father and her father-in-law had with his wife and her mother-in-law.

"Countless." Zarachiel said, "I've lost count as to how many of us there are." Angel genetics were different to that of a human's own. Angels only took on the slight features from either of their parents. Raphael and Gabriel had their mother's eyes whereas Zarachiel had their father's golden eyes.

Celestia gazed over to her daughter and smiled at her. She remembered when the other version of Twilight became corrupted because of her classmates and the energy taken from the other world's bearers of the Elements of Harmony.

She remembered when she had seen Sunset in her human form powered up.

She felt so proud of Sunset. Her little filly had done so much good for the other world, and after all she had done she was betrayed just like that. After hearing about the Anon-A-Miss fiasco from Twilight, she was ready to find Sunset and bring her home permanently.

"I'm glad you're home, Sunset. Your old room is still available if you want to stay?" Celestia asked. She didn't want her daughter to leave again. She'd missed her for so long.

"No. I have a home with Dad, his side of the family and my new friends on the other side of the mirror portal. But I'll come and visit any time I have a chance when I'm not in school, with my friends, studying or with my many aunts and uncles." Sunset answered, taking in the slightly hurt look from her mother.

"Mom, I have friends and I can't just up and leave them. I promise I'll come visit when I can." Sunset said, walking over to her mother as she hugged her.

A bond between mother and daughter had been healed, the rift between them gone as if it never actually happened.

Judgement Day.

Author's Note

I was inspired by the Lucifer episode 'Super Bad Boyfriend'. Also the scene where our favorite crime-solving devil and Amenadiel go and fuck up the gangsters to avenge Caleb after he was murdered.

Here's a link to the scene.

The song that the chapter is named after was inspired by the song Judgement Day by the band Stealth.

Judgement Day.

Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie-Belle were at CHS in detention.

After being revealed to be the true Anon-A-Miss, part of their punishment was six months of detention and they were strictly monitored when using the school computers.

Soon, detention came to an end and the three girls were ready to leave. However, a certain crime-solving devil decided to pay them a visit.

"Ah, ah ah. Not so fast." Lucifer chided, a cold, merciless smile on his lips as his eyes lit up with the flames of Holy Fire before returning to their natural color.

The three girls were terrified at what they had just seen. The red eyes had caused them to see Lucifer's devil face. It was punishment for harming his niece.

"If you three dare try to hurt my niece, ever again, I will find out and you will be sorry." Lucifer warned, flying away in the blink of an eye.

The three pre-teens were picked up by their respective older sisters and taken home.

The Rainbooms were in the music room. They were all silent, remembering the roles they played in believing Anon-A-Miss was Sunset.

Each of them felt guilty, Fluttershy moreso. She felt that Sunset was innocent but was scared of being betrayed by her friends and abandoned by them like they had Sunset.

They decided to try and track her down so they could apologize to her and regain her as a friend. They knew her father-an archangel no less, was extremely protective over her.

Zarachiel and Sunset were walking back home from the portal after leaving the pony version of Equestria. They decided that flying would draw too much attention.

As they walked, the father-daughter duo witnessed the rainbooms who were walking to the home of the angel and nephilm.

Rainbow Dash ran over to Sunset and tackled her, hugging her tightly, muttering apologies into her chest.

"Fuck off!" Sunset snarled, pushing the chromatic girl with full force, causing her to fly backwards and hit the ground hard.

She unfurled her wings and took flight, anger bubbling and welling up in her chest. She wanted to hurt Rainbow Dash badly for what she had done to her.

Zarachiel witnessed his daughter fight her ex-friend and decided to not get involved. Celestial beings-namely angels fighting on Earth if heated enough could destroy the planet. The Archangel of Life gazed Heavenward, calling Lucifer down. Only his brother could possibly help cool down the situation.

Both Sunset and Lucifer got along and were close. Both had rebelled against their respective parent and been kicked out. Both had been forgiven by said parent and thus both could relate to one another.

The flutter of wings behind Zarachiel informed him that Lucifer had heard his prayer.

"Why'd you call me down, brother? I was merely visiting the Silver City." Lucifer asked, playfully smiling.

Zarachiel gazed over at Sunset who hit Rainbow Dash with a right hook and then an uppercut. Her uncle Lucifer and uncle Amenadiel had trained her in several ways of fighting.

Both of the archangels watched Sunset beat Rainbow Dash into the ground. Rainbow had betrayed her and had set her up to be attacked.

This was revenge, and Sunset was allowed her due.

And so the angel and The Devil stood guard as the young nephilim took her vengeance. For there is nothing more heartbreaking that a nephilim in mourning.

Sunset's anger burned brightly, she'd been backstabbed and betrayed. She wasn't usually a violent person, but for now it was needed. Rainbow Dash deserved it for what she wanted Gilda and the others to do to her.

Her wings were fully extended as she flew around Rainbow Dash, pummelling her into the ground, forming a crater.

Sunset landed back down to the ground safely, looking at her father with tears in her eyes. She wanted the students and staff of CHS to see that she'd became a better person. Anon-A-Miss had ruined it.

Distressed, she flew into her father's arms, sobbing heavily as he shushed her, kissing her forehead softly, He ran his hands through her gold and crimson locks soothingly.

Zarachiel gently tucked Sunset's wings away, preening a few loose feathers, removing them painlessly.

Sunset had tired herself out as she leaned into her father's arms, feeling warm and safe in his embrace as she fell into a peaceful slumber.

Zarachiel scooped Sunset into his arms as he looked to Lucifer who only looked back at him with a sad smile, morphing it into a frown as he glared at Rainbow Dash and the other rainbooms in the way only the punisher of the wicked and damned could. Pure fury and coldness.

The flames, not of Hell's own but made by him flickered in his eyes as he kept on glaring at the rainbow-haired girl and the other girls.

"Come near my niece again and there will be hell to pay." Lucifer snarled, unfurling his wings as he and Zarachiel flapped their wings and took flight.

Soon, they were gone. Sunset along with them. Fluttershy stammered fearfully before sobbing. "What have we done?"

Psychosocial.

Sunset was in the middle of relaxing when she felt herself teleport. Opening her eyes, she found herself on a couch in a comfy home.

She looked around to gain her bearing, when her uncle Amenadiel walked over to her. He offered her a small smile, knowing his father had brought her here for therapy to help deal with everything.

"Amenadiel can you grab-who is that?" Linda said, walking over to Amenadiel when she spotted the redhead. Sunset offered her a sheepish smile. Amenadiel turned and faced the therapist who was holding their son, Charlie, who was also Sunset's younger cousin.

"Linda, this is my niece, Sunset Shimmer. An odd name, I know. One of our brothers, Zarachiel, named her that due to it being sunset when she was born." Amenadiel explained to the woman who looked at him with a shocked expression. She thought she was the only one who had a nephilim child.

"It's nice to meet you, ma'am." Sunset introduced herself. Linda scoffed at being called that name. Since she was Amenadiel's niece it would make her Charlie's cousin and in turn making her the girl's aunt.

"Oh please, none of that crap. Call me Linda." The woman asked, adjusting her glasses. She had a feeling this would mean more celestial drama on her plate.

"Alright, Linda. I honestly have no clue how or why I came to wherever I am. Last thing I remember was being at home with dad and some of my other aunts and uncles when I came here in the middle of relaxing." Sunset explained, embarassed.

Linda immediately knew who had the power to bring her 'niece' here. Her father-in-law God.

"Dad told me to inform you that he sent Sunset here as she needs some therapy after something she recently went through." Amenadiel explained to Linda who nodded firmly.

Linda walked over and sat down in the chair opposite Sunset. She stared at the girl as she grabbed her book and a pen, ready to write.

"So, shall we?" Linda asked, clicking her pen to start writing down what her newest patient-family as well-would be telling her.

"Well," Sunset began, "It started after the Formal, an event where I tried to become the formal princess. I didn't and I sort of lost my temper. I come from a world of sentient equines by the way. I come from Equestria. You see, I kinda rebelled against my mom because she didn't teach me what I wasn't ready to know at the time. I got angry and we had a heated argument. After that, I fled through the portal that took me to a human version of my former home."

Linda jotted down Sunset's words, documenting it so she could give it to the girl's father.

"I...wasn't a very good person," Sunset admitted, "I was a bully, but I was changed by a rainbow laser-and don't ask but it happened and after that I changed. Shortly after that, when I thought my friends forgave me for what I did we had a music competition. We won and prevented three formerly evil girls who are now some of my best friends from taking over the world with chaotic musical magic. And yes, magic exists in both the worlds I lived in, before you ask. After that, the students complimented me and I felt forgiven."

Linda gave the girl a sympathetic look. She could tell by how much expression and emotion behind the girl's words that she had really tried to change.

"Anyways, a few months after that, around christmas, me and my former friends were having a sleepover at each other's houses. A few days after the sleepovers, someone on the website MyStable called Anon-A-Miss spread rumor about the students. Everyone believed it was me and they all turned on me, attacked and hurt me. Not only verbally but also physically."

Linda's look switched from one of empathy to concern then anger before returning to an empathetic one.

"WHY COULDN'T THEY SEE THAT I CHANGED!? I PROVED IT BY SAVING THE WORLD!" Sunset wailed, sobbing into her hands as she released everything she'd been holding back.

Amenadiel walked over and hugged Sunset, wrapping a gray wing around her back as he pulled her into a gentle hug which she embraced.

Both Linda and the angel were furious. Amenadiel wanted to find out who harmed Sunset.

"Eventually, dad came and found me. I was sent a text from my former friend Rainbow Dash, and her old friend Gilda informed me that I was meant to be ambushed. Gilda refused to harm me and some of her friends and my ex-boyfriend took my side." Sunset added, looking over at her uncle Amenadiel who gave her a sad smile.

"Dad took me in and since then I've been staying with him. Grandpa took him away from me because he felt it was wrong for him to be family with me and mom. Eventually, many years later, he changed his mind and confronted us. I love dad, and I love the rest of my family. I also made up with my mom and we've reconnected as mother and daughter." Sunset continued, sniffling with happiness at the memories. She felt a smile grace her lips.

Linda noticed how much love the girl put behind her words when describing her parents and her family. The therapist felt a smile of her own on her lips.

"Eventually, Anon-A-MIss revealed themselves. It was three girls who were younger sisters to three of my former friends. They wanted to turn their sisters against me because they felt I was stealing their family from them. All because they were jealous of me spending more time with their sisters instead of them." Sunset scowled, the CMC could've talked it out with their sisters and Anon-A-Miss could've been prevented.

"I'm sorry you went through all that. And you're right, Sunset. Jealousy was a bad reason. I believe you when you said you wanted to change. You do regret what you did and have tried to move on. I'm glad you're with your family and made up with your mother." Linda offered her condolences to the girl.

As a mother herself, if Sunset were her child she'd be furious and want the girls behind the account to pay. She wasn't however but she was her niece and she'd be damned if she couldn't help one of her newest family members.

Suddenly, Charlie woke up, Amenadiel still holding him. The half-human and half-angel baby flailed about as Linda went and grabbed him from his father's arms.

Sunset looked over curiously at the baby, who she instantly realized was her cousin. She only had Cadance who she wanted to make up with. Cadance had been more like a big sister to her than a cousin.

"May I hold him?" Sunset asked softly, gazing over at the infant. Linda smiled and handed the infant nephilim to his cousin.

Sunset adjusted her arms for her cousin who opened his eyes and looked at her. He giggled, reaching over with his hand as he softly touched her face.

The redhead smiled, running a hand through the faint whisps of growing hair on his head. She wanted to be in her cousin's life and a role model to him. She knew that he'd need one.

"Hey little guy!" Sunset cooed, gently brushing her fingers over her cousin's cheek.

Linda watched the interaction between the two, smiling warmly at the scene.

Sunset felt her equestrian magic activate as she ponied up. Not only did she had her pony ears but also a horn and her wings. An alicorn.

Charlie looked up at his cousin, babbling as he grasped one of her fingers and squeezed it gently. The bacon-haired girl let him hold one of her fingers.

The infant then brushed his hand over her left wing, brushing through the layers of feathers that covered them.

"Holy shit!" Linda gasped, watching the girl take on the form that would activate whenever her equestrian magic would flare up.

"Sorry about that," Sunset said, "It only happens if I'm in contact with any magical objects such as my journal." She said, feeling her pony form fade away as she reverted back to her original human state.

Her wings furled back into her body as she relaxed and leaned backward, letting Charlie cuddle into her chest. Sunset's heartbeat caused him to suddenly fall asleep as Linda carefully grabbed him from her as she held him.

"Thanks. He's taken a liking to you." Linda stated, smiling at the newfound bond the girl had made with Charlie.

God eventually teleported Sunset back to her home, but not before informing Zarachiel of what had transpired that day.

Sunset awoke in her bed, her phone on her nightstand and her journal on her lap. She opened the book, grabbed her pen and started to write to Twilight about what she had been up to.

Bad Blood.

Michael sat alone within his quarters. Ever since his father had found out what he had done to Chloe Decker when his twin brother tried to become God, he'd had his gift of fear taken away and his wings made dormant. They could still be used but it would require a lot of power.

The archangel sighed, unfurling his wings. Multiple feathers laid crooked across the shaped bone of the wing. He still hadn't forgiven Lucifer for the rebellion he caused many millenia ago.

Just then, he thought of an idea. He would go after Zarachiel's nephilim brat, stalk her and eventually kidnap her.

This plan would be foolproof. Michael hoped his father hadn't heard his thoughts. A smirk grew across his face at his idea.

"Just you wait, Zarachiel. You're gonna get what you deserve." With that, he left the building and flew out of Heaven.

God sat silently at the table in Zarachiel's house. He focused His abilities to see what His other children were up to and smiled at the scenes He witnessed.

His smile suddenly shifted from pleasing to a frown as He heard Michael's newest plan. He wouldn't allow him to harm Zarachiel or Sunset.

He'd forgiven Zarachiel and Lucifer for the rebellion many millenia ago. At the time, He'd been scared of humans exorcising Free Will and it worried Him if His angels could use it.

He looked back on what He had thought at that time, displeased with how He saw things.

Without a peep, God teleported to where He knew Michael would be.

The twin archangel landed and furled his wings away. Now that he could cause more chaos, he could ruin Zarachiel's life and in turn Sunset's life as well.

He scoffed at the name. Sunset Shimmer. Michael grinned wickedly and prepared to track down Sunset, using her as bait for Zarachiel.

As he was about to put his plan in motion, he felt himself freeze, unable to move.

"Did you really think I'd trust you again, Michael? After what you did?" God asked cooly, furiously gazing towards His son.

"I wasn't going to do anything bad, father," Michael lied, "I only wanted to visit my niece." If only he could fool his father enough and trick him.

God heard Michael's thoughts and held His gaze at His son. Zarachiel and his family were to be left alone.

"I can hear your thoughts, Michael. It would be best to not lie to me." God said, fury laced in His tone. Michael's eyes widened in fear and shock. He needed to be careful if he wanted his plan to work and he wouldn't allow his father to ruin it.

God kept on reading the archangel's thoughts as His fury grew. Michael hadn't changed like He had hoped.

The omniscient father used His abilities to read Michael's mind to find out what he was planning. As He scanned the archangel's mind, He saw what the plan was and how he'd orchestrated it.

"HOW DARE YOU THINK YOU CAN FOOL ME! YOUR FATHER! YOU WILL NOT LAY A HAND ON YOUR BROTHER AND HIS DAUGHTER! IF I HEAR FROM ZARACHIEL OR ANY OF YOUR OTHER SIBLINGS THAT YOU HURT YOUR BROTHER AND SUNSET, I WILL TAKE AWAY YOUR WINGS AS WELL! PERMANENTLY! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?" God boomed loudly as Michael nodded his head fearfully, flying back to his quarters in Heaven.

The omnipresent father sighed and teleported back to Zarachiel's house. He could be anywhere on Earth if He so chose to. He preferred where He was currently, along with Heaven.

God once again sat in his chair, sipping a cup of coffee he'd brewed. He would check up on Michael later to see if he was planning anything else. He didn't want Zarachiel or Sunset's lives ruined.

"Grandpa, you alright?" Sunset asked, walking into the kitchen as she made herself coffee. She'd preffered it to tea, anyway.

He smiled at his granddaughter. He knew she, Charlie, Rory and Charlotte were nephilim, He didn't mind. A long time ago he was worried about hybrids of angels and humans existing. Now, everything was fine. Both Charlie and Sunset were proof of it.

"I'm fine, Sunset. You don't need to worry. God's honest truth. Everything will be fine." God assured her, smiling softly as she smiled back.

"That's what you said about the dinosaurs." Zarachiel remarked, earning a giggle from Sunset and a small smirk from God.

Sunset couldn't help but smile at the scene. This was her family. Sure, it was broken, but they were healing. But it was good.

Yeah, very good.

Bridge Over Troubled Water.

Author's Note

This chapter was inspired by the scene in Lucifer when he and Rory(Aurora Morningstar) were in his penthouse singing and playing the guitar and piano.

Here's the link to the song from the episode:

Bridge Over Troubled Water.

Sunset held her guitar in her hands as she played the instrument. She'd decided to visit Equestria for a few days. She also wanted to see her mother. She'd learned a spell that allowed her to turn her pony body into her human one.

Zarachiel stepped inside of his room in Equestria to find Sunset there, sitting on a chair holding her guitar as she began to play it.

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I'll dry them all

Zarachiel sat down on the piano bench and joined in with Sunset, playing the song on the piano as she sang. This song was one of his personal favorites. A timeless classic.

I'm on your side
Oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Zarachiel joined in, beginning to sing as Sunset started to sing the next verse of the song. He vowed he'd never betray nor harm his daughter. Ever. He was going to be better than what his father was to him.

Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way

Sunset had moved on from the Anon-A-Miss situation, or so he hoped. Her past didn't define who she was. Her past was not today. The past taught lessons for all the angels in Heaven. They'd remembered where they went wrong.

See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Both father and daughter sang the chorus at the same time, overlapping each other. Their overlap was a madrigal.

Sunset stared up at her father as he stared back at her. Zarachiel smiled and pulled Sunset against his arms as she snuggled into him, smiling as she closed her eyes, feeling relaxed and safe in her father's arms.

Sunset drifted off to sleep in her father's arms, a peaceful smile on her lips whilst she slept.

Zarachiel took her into his arms as he carried her to her room, placing her inside of her bed as he pulled the covers over her body. He wanted to make sure she was warm and comfortable enough. Nephilim had the body heat of an angel due to the angelic biology within them.

"I promise you, Sunset, that I will always be here for you. No matter what." He stared down at his sleeping daughter. Lovingly, he rubbed up and down her back, gently easing her muscles as her body relaxed completely. He felt over where her wings would be if they were out.

He felt truly proud of Sunset for finding new friends and forgiving her mother. But most of all, he was proud of her because she forgave herself. Both he and Lucifer could relate to how she felt.

Zarachiel walked out of Sunset's room and went to the throne room to help Celestia with Day Court.

Cat's In The Cradle.

Author's Note

Before anyone asks, this is NOT the last chapter, there are a few more after this one before I end the story.

When I wrote, 'But it was good' is a reference to the Story Of Creation in the Book Of Genesis.

Genesis 1:31. "God saw all that he had made, and it was very good."

Next chapter: Sunset meets her Aunt Chloe, cousins Trixie, Rory and Charlotte.

Cat's In The Cradle.

Sunset was in the middle of making a painting for her parents when God teleported next to her. The omniscient and omnipresent father analysed the picture, smiling at it.

"Granddaughter, your painting is beautiful." God said, a warm smile on His lips. Sunset blushed, her cheeks now crimson. Only her parents knew of her ability to paint. The image was of a phoenix in front of a setting sun.

"Thanks grandpa, it's a representation of my change, so to speak." Sunset said. Ever since she'd been found and taken in by her father, she'd gained a large, loving family and managed to reunite and reconcile with her mom.

God heard her thoughts, but didn't comment on them. He'd been aware of all that she had done. Despite everything, He forgave her.

His granddaughter's ex-friends would face punishment not only from her father, but also Himself and His wife, the Goddess Of All Creation.

Putting those thoughts aside, he remembered why He had come to speak with Sunset.

"I'd like for you, your father, your mother and your aunt to join me, for a family dinner." God asked, waiting for her reaction. He hadn't spend time like that with His family in over many millenia. After Zarachiel and Lucifer rebelled, the family had been torn apart.

"Sure, what time?" Sunset asked. She'd only spent time with her angelic relatives on Earth. She was still adapting to finding out that she was a nephilim.

"I'll let you know when." God replied, smiling as he teleported back to Heaven.

In the realm of Heaven, there was a large mansion with endless space and rooms. In one room was a long rectangular table with comfy wooden chairs around it.

"Isn't this nice? A peaceful, enjoyable and relaxing family dinner." God stated, smiling. It had been many millenia since they all had spent time like this as a family.

Every angel was there, Lucifer at God's right and Michael at Goddess's left.

Every angel was sat in a random chair that they had picked. Sunset sat next to her father who was on her left and her mother on her right. Luna sat next to Celestia.

"Grandpa?" Sunset asked nervously, she didn't know how her grandfather, God himself would handle her aunt and mother.

"Yes, granddaughter?" God answered lovingly, looking at His granddaughter, smiling softly at her.

"I don't think you've met my mother. Mom, this is God, my grandfather from Dad's side. Next to him is grandma Goddess Of All Creation." Sunset sweetly smiled back at the creators of the universe itself.

God locked eyes with Celestia and couldn't hold it in. He chuckled softly and grinned at her playfully.

"My apologies. I do love a good staring contest. Samael-" God said before being interrupted.

"It's Lucifer!" Lucifer interrupted sharply. A steely gaze directed at his father. His father should know by now that he was called Lucifer and not his other name that he hated being called.

"-Lucifer used to be pretty good at them, still is. Isn't that right son? Remember the staring contests between me, you, Amenadiel, Michael and your mother?" God reflected on the memories, of times gone by when Heaven was peaceful and all was well.

"Yes, Dad, I do." Lucifer grumbled, earning a light chuckle from his father. Goddess giggled lightly at the scene. She'd missed this.

"Well, it's so very nice to meet you, Celestia. Might I add a beautiful name as well." God complimented, causing Celestia to blush. Sunset giggled lightly at the scene, as did all the angels.

"Well, why thank you. Zarachiel mentioned some things about you to me when we were dating and after we married. You two used to be close. And he mentioned every single one of his siblings to me. Alphabetically even." Celestia chuckled, reminiscing the times when she was dating Zarachiel. He was shy, angry and heartbroken after remembering that he'd been kicked out of his home for merely giving his thoughts on Free Will.

"Did he now? I hope he told you good things about me and his mother. Right son?" God teased, staring down at His other most rebellious son.

"Yes, Dad. Only good things. I don't lie. I despise liars, charlatans, people who doesn't believe in what they say." Zarachiel said. He had never liked liars, Michael being one of them.

Goddess decided to make herself known as she stared at Celestia.

"It's nice to meet my daughter-in-law that was hidden from me by my son, not to mention he hid the fact he had a child and made Heaven just a little bit brighter." Goddess teased, winking playfully at Her son. Zarachiel merely rolled his eyes at the statement.

"Your son is a wonderful husband. He is a wonderful lover and has always been faithfull and ever loyal towards me." Celestia gazed at her husband lovingly, a small adoring smile on her muzzle as he gazed back at her.

God and Goddess gazed at each other and smiled. God would never say it, but Zarachiel was a better father to Sunset than He could have ever been.

"He's just like what we were when we came into existence." Goddess whispered, tears of joy in Her eyes. Tears of joy and motherly pride.

"He really is, his destiny really has come full circle. Destined to lead Equestria and it's people alongside his family for all eternity." God whispered back, smiling at His wayward son.

"Aww, Celly. Your way with words is another reason I love you entirely." Zarachiel spoke softly, never looking away from his wife's eyes.

Almost every female angel and even Goddess herself dawwed at the sight. Goddess sniffled and wiped Her eyes.

God couldn't help but feel uncomfortable with Samael wanting to be called Lucifer. A silly little moniker made by Humanity so they could have someone to blame for their sins and problems.

"Son, I'd like for you to allow us to call you Samael, your real name. I know you fashioned yourself a new one. I just wish you would take your old name and bear it once again, my lightbringer." God asked, staring at His rebellious son. He never wanted His child away from Him forever in Hell. He wanted His son to one day return to His side in Heaven.

Due to being omniscient, He knew that Lucifer would rebel. Even if He had gotten His son to stop, His lightbringer still wouldn't find himself happy. God hated sending His lightbringer away. He wasn't doing it as punishment. Okay, he was, But it was also for Lucifer to learn how to rule a kingdom. God knew that He and His wife would need to one day retire. He knew that Lucifer would be a good fit for the job.

Lucifer was stunned speechless. His father had never requested to ask to call him a name he felt uncomfortable to use. He gazed at his father's loving expression filled with love. So much love. God is a being of love. It is simply stupid to assume God can put aside his love for his angels and one of his favorites no less.

Lucifer didn't know what to say. His father had called him by a name he hated being called. Why would he want to use his old name after what he did?

Lucifer pondered on the question he had just asked himself. He still felt guilty about causing the rebellion. All he wanted was for his voice to be heard and his thoughts to be given.

Zarachiel decided to introduce Celestia and Luna to Linda, Chloe and Trixie. They deserved to get to meet them.

"Celly and Luna, this is mine and Lucifer's therapist, Dr. Linda Martin. Now part of the family as my nephew Charlie's mother." Zarachiel introduced as both Celestia and Linda shook hand and hoof.

"It's nice to meet my husband's therapist, nice to meet you." Celestia introduced herself first, showing her husband's therapist the kindness and respect she deserved.

"It's nice to meet his wife, your highness." Linda was slowly starting to like Zarachiel and his little family. Sunset was a unique and amazing member of it. She'd done some bad stuff, but she'd made up for it and saved the world.

God heard Linda's thoughts and looked over at Sunset. He felt proud of her for saving His creation. She may have done bad things, but she had repented and made up for them. He'd forgiven her and wouldn't hold what she had done against her. What the Anon-A-Miss account had done to her filled Him with fury.

The combinations of archangels, creators of the universe, archangels, angels and royalty enjoyed small talk and a warm and homely family dinner.

Sunset looked around at her angelic relatives and the rest of her family. It was big and everyone was different in their own ways.

Sure, it was broken, but it was on the way to recovery.

But it was good.

I'm Always Chasing Rainbows.

Author's Note

This chapter is a crossover with Hazbin Hotel and the Lucifer TV show.

In this timeline and story, Charlie(Charlotte) Morningstar is the daughter of Lucifer Morningstar and Dt. Chloe Decker. She's also the sister of Rory(Aurora) Morningstar and the stepsister of Trixie Espinoza.

She's also Zarachiel's niece and Sunset's cousin as Lucifer is Sunset's uncle. Rory and Trixie are her cousins and Chloe is her aunt-in-law.

Charlotte is often down in Hell, running it as it's princess.

Though in this story, she'll pop up from time-to-time to check on her cousin.

I'm Always Chasing Rainbows.

Sunset was strumming her guitar, going over the chords. Ever since she'd arrived in the human version of Equestria, she'd loved music and guitars.

She'd even written a song that she wanted to sing in front of her entire family.

As she prepared to play a song, she was interrupted by the flutter of wings. Sunset looked up from her guitar as she looked at a blonde-haired woman.

The lady wore a pair of black boots, black pants, a red suit jacket, white shirt with a black bow tie and black suspenders. She had yellow eyes and blonde hair in a ponytail. The woman had black lips, rosy red spots on her cheeks and stood at a height of six foot.

"Who are you?" Sunset asked, raising an eyebrow. She'd never met this woman before.

"I'm your cousin, Charlotte. Didn't my dad, your uncle Lucifer, tell you about me?" Charlie asked, confused at the fact that not even her cousin knew who she was.

"I have another cousin?" Sunset asked, even more confused. Just how many more relatives did she have?

"There's also my sisters Rory and Trixie. Well, Trixie's my stepsister as my dad is her stepdad." Charlie explained, grinning. She walked over and pulled Sunset into a hug.

"Dad told me about what happened to you. I'm sorry you went through all that. If you ever need my help or want to talk, I'm here." The blonde-haired nephilim added, smiling softly at her cousin. How could her cousin's friends betray her like that?

"It's fine. I have new friends now, and also the entire family." Sunset said, sighing as she kept her eyes focused on her cousin.

"You're still not used to the fact you're sort of an angel and immortal, are you?" Charlie asked softly, not wanting to anger her cousin. She herself could understand. It took her a long time to come to terms with the fact she'd outlive her mortal relatives and friends on Earth.

"No, I haven't!" Sunset snarled, bitterness in her voice. "I'm sorry, I just...I'm immortal and have to outlive everyone? How am I gonna deal with it?" Sunset asked herself sadly, looking away from her cousin.

Charlie sighed and walked over to her cousin's bed as she sat on it and laid next to her. The both of them were timeless and would suffer the loss of many because of what they were.

"It won't be easy to. I'll be going through it too. So will baby Charlie and Rory. We'll all be here for you, Sunset." Charlie comforted, squeezing Sunset's hand gently. The redhead squeezed the pale-skinned girl's hand back, reciprocating the affectionate gesture.

"Thanks for being here for me, Charlie." Sunset said, looking at her cousin, smiling gently. The princess of Hell warmly smiled at her as she got up and prepared to leave.

"You're welcome." Charlie said, unfurling her snow white wings as she took off and flew back down to Hell.

Sunset went back to playing her guitar as she practiced her new song.

Way Down We Go.

Author's Note

This chapter idea just randomly came to me last night.

-PrinceOfDarkness.

Way Down We Go.

Sunset was on her way to school. Ever since the reveal of Anon-A-Miss, she'd taken some time off school to process everything.

Usually, she'd choose to walk or get the bus. Now that she had wings, she could fly to CHS. It was much faster and easier for her.

The bacon-haired nephilim loved the feeling of the wind beneath her feathers as she flew. The flapping of her wings stayed at a steady pace as she soared through the skies.

Eventually, she landed at the gates as she furled her wings away. Even though her wings weren't out, they could still sense around her for danger.

She noticed that other classmates looked at her with shock, horror and fear. Sunset flipped them off, not interested in dealing with any students today.

The redhead sighed, taking a deep breath as she braced herself. She walked through the gate and made her to the doors of the school.

The day had been exhausting for Sunset. Throughout the entire day, students kept coming up to her and giving fake apologies. She knew that they never meant them anyway, and only said it to try and take away their blame.

Luckily, she had her new friends for support. A group that consisted of Gilda, Lightning Dust, Trixie Derpy, Lyra, Bon-Bon, Octavia, Vinyl and The Dazzlings.

They'd been there for her throughout the entire Anon-A-Miss situation, unlike her former friends who believed that she was the one behind the account.

When in reality, it was their little sisters who were simply jealous of her spending time with their older sisters.

As Sunset made her way to leave the school, she ran into the CMC and the Rainbooms. The redhead could feel nothing but anger try and take hold of her, but she held back.

"Sunset! We're so super duper sorry!" Pinkie Pie wailed tearfully, running over to Sunset, who merely moved out of the way as the pink-skinned girl tripped over.

The rest of the Rainbooms looked at Sunset with sadness, guilt and what seemed to be a sliver of fear.

In a brief burst of emotion, Sunset's wings unfurled as they raised above her back threateningly. She wanted them to leave her alone.

Once she had her emotions back under control, she furled her wings away. The redhead felt tears form in her eyes as Vinyl and Octavia helped her leave the school, comforting her as she cried into Octavia's arms. The grey-skinned girl merely held her, not complaining or saying anything.

Once the bacon-haired nephilim had stopped crying, she looked up at the violinist.

"Thanks Octavia, for helping me." Sunset sniffled, wiping her eyes on her sleeve.

"Think nothing of it, love." The musician said softly, pulling her into a gentle hug, Vinyl joining in as did the rest of her other friends.

Once Sunset had fully relaxed herself, she unfurled her wings and flew back home. The Dazzlings and the rest of their friend group watched in awe and with a smile as the girl flew.

Sunset looked down at her friends as she flew home, before focusing on the direction she was flying in. Soon, she'd made it back home. She was greeted by her angelic relatives as she spent the rest of the day with them.

Unsteady.

Zarachiel and Sunset were in the garden in their home on Earth.

The Archangel of Life was showing Sunset how to fight when he sensed the aura of two of his brothers.

Michael and Azazel.

Michael had planted the idea for Lucifer's rebellion in his head to try and get rid of him. Azazel had helped by giving Michael weapons and ways to trick more of their now dead brothers. They'd been slain by Azrael's Blade. The dagger would destroy their aura, or as it was known, their light. The blade would cause the aura to evaporate, killing an angel or human entirely. It would destroy the soul in the process.

Sadly, Uriel had been on the receiving end of it. He'd threatened the lives of their mother, as well as Lucifer's girlfriend, Chloe Decker.

Lucifer never wanted to have to kill Uriel. He hated doing it. After Zarachiel had found out what had been done, he used his wings to send a prayer to Lucifer to comfort him.

Uriel was at fault, he'd disobeyed all summons to return home to Heaven.

"I'm surprised dad let you keep your daughter. She was a mistake. You were never meant to find love. You fell, just like Lucifer. You refused to obey dad, and for that you were cast out." Michael sneered, grinning madly at his younger brother.

Azazel joined in with the archangel, grinning madly at Zarachiel. He'd never liked Lucifer or Zarachiel. All they did was disobey their father because they wanted Free Will.

"You disobeyed dad, refused to obey him and be a good little angel." Azazel taunted, hoping to anger his brother. He knew that he would get away with it. Their mother would always let them get away with everything.

"Lay one hand on my daughter and I will end you." Zarachiel warned. He sent a text to Castiel and the rest of their siblings. He was aware that his father would be watching from Heaven.

Azazel struck Zarachiel across the jaw, causing him to stumble backwards. The Archangel of Life shook it off and kicked him, knocking him to the floor.

Michael got up and prepared to punch Zarachiel, making it halfway before being stopped by Castiel. The black-haired seraph tightly gripped Michael's fist, giving Zarachiel a chance to strike back.

Without saying a word, the Archangel of Life nodded to Castiel, punching Michael in the chest, sending him falling to the ground. Azazel helped him up, brushing the dirt off his clothes as each brother prepared to fight.

Luckily for Zarachiel, they had reinforcements.

Amenadiel, Lucifer, Zadkiel, Gabriel and Raphael.

The black-skinned angel steeled his nerves as he prepared to fight Michael whilst Lucifer took on Azazel.

Raphael and the other two served as extra help if anything went wrong.

Azazel, Michael, why are you doing this?!" Amenadiel yelled angrily at the two, hoping to make them understand just what they are doing.

"Amenadiel, don't you get it? Zarachiel and Samael deserve it for what they did." Michael sneered, hoping to anger their older brother. If he got Amenadiel angry enough, he could get father down from Heaven and pin all the blame on them.

"How did you even get out?" Zarachiel asked. Last he knew, Dad had punished him by keeping him locked in his rooms in Heaven.

"I snuck out. Simple as that." Michael said, pulling out Azrael's Blade of Death. He'd stolen it from her when she went to speak with their father

"Aren't you meant to be locked up in the silver city? I can imagine how pissed off dear old dad would be when he finds out you left." Lucifer asked, grinning darkly. He knew that Michael would be in a load of trouble once their father found out what he was doing.

Michael just chuckled, "Oh, Samael, you know that dad wouldn't do anything to me or Azazel for doing this. We're merely sending you back where you belong. In Hell."

Zarachiel was about to say something when Sunset walked over to him. As soon as he sensed that his brothers were on Earth, he advised Sunset to remain in their home.

"Dad? Everything alright?" Sunset asked, concerned for her dad. She saw the looks she was getting from the two men her father and uncles were facing.

"There she is, the half-breed. As soon as I'm done with your father, you'll be next." Michael said, laughing madly. He would ruin Zarachiel's life in order to punish him some more for disobeying their father.

"I'm not afraid of you." Sunset retorted, noticing her father stared at her with love and pride in his expression. He pulled her into his arms as she hugged him.

The two broke apart as Sunset stood next to her father. She wasn't scared of the two men in front of her.

"Sunset, get out of here. Please." Amenadiel pleaded, not wanting his niece to be injured by Azazel or Michael. She was part of their family, regardless of who her mother was.

"Seeing you interacting with the half-breed is making me want to puke" Michael sneered, imitating the action of throwing up.

"Nothing you say can hurt us, Michael. Give up. You've lost." Amenadiel said, commanding his brother to back down.

Suddenly, Michael grabbed Azrael's Blade and aimed it towards Sunset, intending to kill her. He was stopped when she grabbed his fist and held it, using her other hand to remove the blade out of it. She then kicked him in the chest, her attack being far stronger than her dad's.

Michael landed harshly on the ground, gulping for air as he struggled to get up. How was it that a nephilim defeated him in battle?

The bacon-haired girl handed the blade to Raphael, who flew back to Heaven and gave it to Azrael.

Zarachiel felt proud of Sunset. She was fearless in the face of danger. She'd improvised her self-defence lessons that he and Amenadiel had taught her.

Castiel walked in front of Sunset and threw a left hook at Azazel, stunning him. This gave Lucifer an opportunity to strike him. The dark-haired archangel roundhoused Azazel as Amenadiel took his legs out from underneath him.

"Impressive, you managed to get me down." Azazel cackled, laughing at the others to their dismay.

To Sunset, that was enough. She walked over and kicked the angel in the chin with her knee, disorientating him.

The fallen angel looked up at his brothers, pulling himself up from the ground as they all prepared to fight against him. As they started to walk towards Azazel, a burst of light stopped them.

"Not so fast, Azazel." God said, halting the fight. He'd seen what they all had done to Michael and Azazel. He wouldn't punish them, or Sunset, for that matter. Azazel and Michael triggered the fight, the others went along with it.

"Grandpa, I can explain!" Sunset said nervously, placing her hands in front of her chest placatingly. God watched her try to stay calm as she thought of an explanation.

"I know. You're not in any trouble, granddaughter. They provoked you and tried to go after you out of petty revenge. All you did was defend yourself. The same could be said for your father. After all, he let Michael have the first punch, which means your father did nothing but defend himself." God said, soothing His nervous grandchild.

He was impressed with the way Sunset fought. It seemed that the lessons taught to her by Amenadiel and Lucifer had paid off.

"Michael stole Azrael's Blade." Sunset said, informing her grandfather of what had been done. He merely smiled at her, letting her know it would be alright.

"Not to worry, he and Azazel will be punished accordingly. They will be banned from leaving Heaven for as long as Lucifer ruled Hell." God replied, placing a comforting hand on His granddaughter's shoulder.

The other angels aside from Castiel and Raphael, flew back to Heaven. God also went back to punish Michael and Azazel. Both would learn not to anger their father or harm their niece again.

Castiel and Raphael chose to stay to protect Sunset. They'd become worried that Sunset would be a target from angels who still shunned Lucifer and Zarachiel.

Zarachiel walked over to Sunset as he looked her over. He hoped that Michael hadn't hurt her.

"Sunset, my little fledgling, are you alright? Did he hurt you?" Zarachiel asked worriedly, making sure his child was fine. He didn't know if Michael or Azazel harmed her without her even knowing about it.

"I'm fine daddy, I'm not hurt." Sunset said, hugging her father softly as he hugged her back. Raphael dawwed at the sight, recieving a glare from Zarachiel in return.

The group of four went inside their home as they spent the rest of the day together.

My Past Is Not Today.

Author's Note

This story is nearing it's end. One last chapter to go.

Next chapter, The Magic Of Friendship Grows.

It's inspired by the last ever episode of MLP FIM.

I want it to be a sendoff to this story.

There will be a sequel, with more angels and a reference to, if not, a character from Good Omens.

Until then, I'll see ya later.

-PrinceOfDarkness.

My Past Is Not Today.

Sunset adjusted the guitar strap connected to the instrument as she carried it on her back. She'd been working on a song and wanted to sing it in front of her family. Both her Heavenly and Equestrian family.

She sighed, unfurling her wings as she prepared to take flight. She looked around to make sure that nobody was watching her.

Once the coast was clear, she jumped and let herself fly, feeling the rush of wind beneath her red and gold feathers

She smiled. She couldn't wait to sing in front of her family.

All angels of each rank were in the lush forest of Heaven, awaiting Sunset's arrival. Dad had summoned them here as he deemed it something important.

"Sorry, I'm late. Couldn't forget my guitar." Sunset said, furling her wings away. She took some deep breaths and steeled her nerves.

As she took time to adjust herself, God teleported into the room.

"Granddaughter, it is good to see you again. I cannot wait to hear you sing." The Almighty said, looking over at his grandchild who blushed from the praise and affection.

"Thanks. I just want everyone to know that I'm not evil, or a bad person anymore. I want my family to know I'm a good person and that I've changed. My past doesn't define me, because my past is not today." Sunset replied, a smile on her lips.

As she spoke, she heard the flapping of wings behind her. She turned around to see her father. Sunset ran over to him and tightly hugged him, recieving one in return.

Eventually, the both of them pulled away from the hug.

Sunset decided to get the show on the road. She quickly tuned her guitar, making sure the strings were at the correct pitch for the song.

Every angel, her grandfather, grandmother, her mom and aunt all stared at her, encouraging her.

"This song is a tribute to my amazing mom and dad. Mom did her best to raise me. I hurt her so many times, yet she forgave me. So did dad. Even though he wasn't in my life much, he's tried to be there for me. He's protected and cared for me. I love you guys." Sunset said, receiving awwws from every female angel in the room, as well as her grandmother and aunt.

"This is also a thank you to all my uncles, aunts, grandma and grandpa, mom and dad. For giving me a second chance to better myself. Thank you." Sunset admitted, a few tears trickling down her cheeks. She swore she could hear her angelic aunts and uncles sniffling or slightly sobbing.

With everyone now calm, she started to play the song, strumming the tune on her guitar.

Power
Was all I desired
But all that grew inside me
Was the darkness I acquired

Sunset recalled her memories of when she looked into the mirror and saw her future. She remembered when she yelled at her mother and fled Equestria. More memories started to come back. Sunset remembered when she put on Twilight's crown and warped the element of magic, turning herself into a 'she-demon' which she hated being.

When I began to fall
And I lost the path ahead
Thats when your friendship found me
And it lifted me instead

Sunset remembered when she was in the crater during the Fall Formal. She thought she was going to die that night. Instead, Twilight gave her another chance.

She mentally thanked the princess for giving her another chance, and for also being her friend.

Like a phoenix burning bright in the sky
I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny
I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say
That my past does not define me
Cause my past is not today

Sunset didn't see herself as a monster anymore. Rather, she saw herself like a phoenix. Reborn from the ashes of her former self.

There was another side of her now. The gentle, loving, patient, kind and affectionate side that her dad, mom, aunts and uncles had seen.

She didn't know what the future would hold for her. She knew that her grandather knew the answer to that. After all, He was God.

She wouldn't let her past define her, because her past wasn't today. She was better than her past self. She was a nephilim, a hybrid of Equestrian and an Archangel. She had family and new friends who loves and cared about her.

Ambition
Is what I believed
Would be the only way to set me free

Sunset sighed as she looked back at what she used to be. An egotistical, cruel and evil bully. She believed that her ambition would give her power. She was still mad at her mother during that time. She'd felt replaced and unloved. However, she knew now that what she felt was a lie.

Her mom loved her, that was for certain. So did her dad and her entire family. She'd forgiven her mother. She knew that the past could never be undone. However, she could look towards the future with hope.

But when it disappeared
And I found myself alone
That's when you came and got me
And felt like I was home

She remembered when the Elements Of Harmony purified her. It had destroyed the darkness tainting her. Ever since then, she'd made up for her past and sought out redemption.

When Anon-A-Miss rolled around, she felt alone all over again. She felt she was going to be alone for good. She felt she deserved it.

But she was wrong. So very wrong. She'd made new friends, met her dad, her Heavenly aunts and uncles and reunited with her mom.

She truly was home, both in Heaven and in Equestria. Being where her family was and what it stood for, made her realize what home was.

Home is where family loved each other, looked out for each other and protected one another. Family had each other's backs and supported each other. Family forgave each other.

Like a phoenix burning bright in the sky
I'll show there's another side to me
You can't deny
I may not know what the future holds
But hear me when I say

She was like a phoenix, burning up and turning into ash. Rebirthing herself. She was a nephilim, an Equestrian, a princess and a good friend. That is who she was.

This was the side to her that nobody could try and change. She loved and forgave herself for what she had done.

She didn't know what her future was going to be, nor what would happen. But she embraced it with fearlessness and determination.

Sunset unfurled her wings and flew upward. She wanted to make her point to them all.

That my past does not define me

Her wings raised above her head as the sun shone down on her, flowing through her feathers as the light reflected off her wings.

Suddenly, her Equestrian magic flared as a phoenix tail sprouted and her Equestrian ears formed on her head. A pair of Phoenix wings took over her angelic wings, combining them.

Cause my past is not today!

She closed her eyes and basked in the warmth of the sun. It's gentle, divine light flowing through her wings.

The phoenix tail, wings and her Equestrian ears faded in small sparkles of magic. Sunset felt exhilarated at what she had just done. A smile graced her lips as she flew back down. Her entire family cheered and praised the redhead, making her blush.

Her past was not today. She was a new person. And she was going to embrace that.

Sunset walked over to her parents as they embraced her, a wing from both of them covering her. Providing her with warmth and softness.

Sunset wrapped her own wings around her parents as they held her. Celestia kissed her forehead as Zarachiel gently ran his hand through her hair.

Eventually, she fell asleep in her father's arms. Both Zarachiel and Celestia kissed each other deeply before pulling away. They stared down at their now resting daughter.

They were proud of her. She'd been through many trials and tribulations. She always defeated them. She was a survivor and a fighter, just like her parents.

Zarachiel and Celestia flew back to their rooms, Sunset in the arms of her father as they flew away.

Soon, Sunset was fast asleep in her bed. Zarachiel wanted to spend some time with his daughter in Heaven. It was his home and he wanted her to know she was welcome to visit it any time she wanted.

Celestia, in a humanoid form, bent down and kissed Sunset's forehead, gently rubbing her thumb over her daughter's cheek.

"Sleep tight." The alabaster-skinned woman cooed down at her child, smiling with warmth and love towards Sunset.

Celestia and Zarachiel quietly left their daughter, letting her have a peaceful rest.

-PrinceOfDarkness.

The Magic Of Friendship Grows.

A week had passed since she had sung in front of her entire family. She'd felt much stronger and alive than she'd ever been.

She was interrupted when her grandfather mentally summoned her to where he was.

Every angel, as well as Sunset, Zarachiel, Celestia and Luna all stood in the Throne Room in Heaven. God stood in front of them all. He didn't know how to tell all of His children that He and their mother were retiring.

"My children, it is time for me and your mother to retire. Before you ask, we have picked two people to become the new God and Goddess in our stead. That is, if they wish to take our place in Heaven." God said, looking to His wife, Ashera, before he turned to Zarachiel and Celestia.

Zarachiel didn't know what to say. His father was retiring now? But he was God, surely he didn't get tired. He thought it near impossible.

God heard His son's thoughts and gazed at him with a sad smile. "Yes son, I get tired. Every being does. It has come time for me and your mother to retire from being the God and Goddess of this universe. I would like for you and Celestia to take over for us. That is, if you would like to? I will not force you into the role, my son." God said, watching HIs son's expression carefully.

Zarachiel didn't know what to think. He was already a prince in Equestria. he didn't know how he could be the God of everything as well as a prince.

God heard his thoughts and squeezed His son's shoulder comfortingly. "You'll learn what to do. You're smart. You'll figure it out." He said, smiling at his son as Goddess stood next to her husband. She smiled at Celestia, showing she was alright with it. She was happy that Zarachiel had found love. She was also happy that she had a granddaughter. She and Her husband would try and visit from time to time.

Zarachiel clicked his tongue as he thought it through. He'd have to remain in Heaven most of the time, but he would visit Earth or Equestria from time to time. He wanted to make sure they would be stable and functioning.

"Celestia, what do you think about this? I won't do it if you don't want to. I love you more than wanting to become God. I will go wherever you go, my beloved." Zarachiel said, clasping her hands in his own, looking into her eyes.

Celestia was stunned silent, as were the others in the room. They knew that Zarachiel had experience as a prince. They knew that he would be fit for the job.

Amenadiel spoke up. "Brother, if you do become the new God, then you will have my full support." The dark-skinned angel said, nodding to his brother with respect.

"Amenadiel is right, brother. Zarachiel has my full support." Zadkiel said, standing next to Zarachiel, as did Amenadiel.

Lucifer decided to chime in. "Zarachiel has as much experience as I have. We are both rulers and understand how to be one." He said, nodding to Zarachiel.

Zarachiel didn't know what to say. He didn't know if his other brothers and sisters felt the same way.

Jophiel and Remiel spoke up, giving their voices. Soon, Raphael, Sariel, Ariel and Castiel gave their voices to the proposal. They all wanted Zarachiel to rule. He would be a great one.

Zarachiel smiled, he was happy to see that he had the respect and support of his brothers and sisters.

Azrael joined in, as did Gabriel.

"Zarachiel has my vote." The cheerful prankster said, grinning at his older brother. Zarachiel was a good brother. He respected him.

"Zarachiel has my vote, too." Azrael said softly, smiling at her older brother. She had confidence in her older brother leading them.

With most of their siblings on his side, he was leaning towards the idea. He looked to Celestia, who smiled and nodded. She wanted to retire from being a princess. She didn't know if she would be more tired as the Goddess of the universe instead of just a princess.

"My husband has my vote, and I will become the Goddess of this universe with him. Wherever he goes, I will go, too." Celestia said, smiling lovingly at her husband who smiled back.

Zarachiel knew that being God would exponentially give him more power. He knew that he'd become omnipotent and omniscient like his father.

The married couple nodded, earning claps from all the angels. They would do the job together. At least they would get to spend time with Sunset together now instead of having to go between realms or through portals.

God nodded to Zarachiel who nodded back, confirming the job role.

"I'm proud of you son, never forget that." God said, smiling as He looked to His wife.

Ashera smiled at Her son, walking over to him. She hugged him tightly, feeling a tear trickle down Her cheek.

She opened a portal to Her world, an exact clone of Heaven and Earth. She looked to all of Her children and Her granddaughter one last time as she waved goodbye. She walked through the portal, Her husband following.

Zarachiel knew that this would likely be the last time he'd ever see his parents again. It broke a part of him. Yet, he hid it.

God heard His son's thought as He smiled at him. "Don't worry, you'll find a way to connect Heaven and Equestria. You'll figure it out." He said, walking through the portal as it closed behind Him. God would try and visit from time-to-time. He wanted to keep visiting his family whenever he could.

Zarachiel stared at the spot where his parents once stood. He sighed sadly, grieving the loss. Without saying a word, he unfurled his wings as he flew to the thrones. He sat in his as he felt waves of power flow through him. Omniscience and Omnipotence. He now knew everything. Beginning, middle and end.

He smiled at the times Sunset would spend with her mortal friends before they passed from old age. However, there would always be Twilight and Cadance, as well as Flurry Heart.

Celestia flew over to the other throne, receiving the same power that her husband was given.

Zarachiel made his first declaration.

"Hear me now, angels and humans in Heaven. Your God has retired and I have taken His place. I will fix the problems within Heaven. I promise you, that I, your God, will fix the system and fix what my mother and father could not. This I swear to all humans residing in Heaven." Zarachiel promised, snapping his fingers as His declaration came into effect within an instant.

He made a third throne for Sunset, who would recieve His Omnipotence and Omniscience. He wanted her to have as much power as He and her mother did.

The angels cheered, supporting their brother and their sister-in-law.

"Sunset, my daughter. Come forward and take your place at the third throne beneath me and your mother. I want you to have some power over the universe. You care about justice. You will have the power to right wrongs and fix the system alongside me and your mother." Zarachiel said, smiling down at His little fledgling.

Sunset silently walked over to the throne and sat on it, feeling mass waves of power flow into her. Omnipotence and Omniscience. She could see all, just like her parents could. She saw the corruption of Humanity and had the desire to fix it.

Zarachiel knew that even though He was ruler here with His wife, He and Celestia would need to retire as prince and princess of Equestria.

Wordlessly, he opened a portal to Equestria. Sunset, Luna, Celestia and Himself teleported to it. He could do so now because He willed it to happen.

Twilight and the Elements Of Harmony faced Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. They couldn't believe what they had heard.

"Well Twilight, it is time for us to go. We have decided to retire now. We know that you will do good as the princess." Celestia softly spoke, smiling warmly at Twilight.

Sunset decided to make her voice heard as she looked at her friend.

"You'll make an amazing ruler, Twilight. I have faith in you." Sunset said, walking over as she hugged Twilight.

With words shared and tears shed, it was time for them to go.

"Goodbye, Princess." Twilight said, a sad smile on her muzzle as she hugged Celestia for what she felt was the last time.

Soon, the both of them pulled away from the hug.

"Goodbye, Twilight." Celestia said, nodding to the mare.

Zarachiel's eyes glowed as He teleported His family back to Heaven. Before He did so, He nodded at Twilight. She'd earned His respect by defending Sunset and being her friend.

"And that's the story of how I met the elements of Harmony and met beings called angels, Luster Dawn." Twilight said. She looked much older and had grown taller due to becoming an alicorn.

"So, your friendship with Sunset was always there because you kept in touch and never lost faith in each other?" Luster Dawn asked her teacher happily.

Twilight chuckled and nodded, smiling at her student. "Yeah Luster, that's how it happened." She hadn't seen Sunset in years. She wondered how she was.

"But Princess, I still don't understand friendship." Luster admitted, lowering her head with shame.

Twilight looked at her with compassion and warmth. She knew how she could teach her student. The same way Celestia taught her.

"That's alright, because I know exactly where to send you." She said, the Mane Six turning to look at her as they all smiled.

When I started out, I was unsure
I thought I knew all that I needed, didn't know what to expect
But when my walls came down, I saw the truth
All along something was missing
And I think you'll see it, too

Twilight knew how Luster felt. She felt the same way when she was a little filly. She'd learned about friendship because of her mentor and teacher. Now, she was going to teach her student the same way she learned.

She knew that Luster Dawn would see friendship and see how it worked.

She teleported the both of them to Canterlot, the place where she now lived.

This is where the magic happens
This is where the magic lives
Our friendships weave together stronger
The bonds grow deeper, lasting longer
And the greatest spell you'll know
Is how the Magic of Friendship grows

Equestria was full of magic. Their bonds only ever grew stronger and lasted as long as they had known each other.

And no matter how much time goes by
The party will still be here with some fun new games to try

Pinkie Pie burst out of nowhere, making Luster Dawn jump. However, the pink mare smiled at the older party mare.

Big adventure's waiting obviously
Long as we're still here together
We'll be flying happily

Rainbow Dash soared above the light pink unicorn, trying to impress her. However, the got the message across. They would always be there and always supportive of each other.

This is where the magic happens
This is where the magic lives
Our friendships weave together stronger
The bonds grow deeper, lasting longer
And the greatest spell there is
What the Magic of Friendship gives

Twilight sang, teaching her student the value of friendship and remaining friends.

And it's somethin' true to pass on down
To generations yet to come

Applejack joined in, singing along with Twilight. Friendship would be passed down for many generations to come.

And we'll never stop believing in
The generosity of the friendships we've won

Rarity joined in with the both of them, teaching Luster about her element. Friendships were full of believing in each other. Faithfulness

And because the love that I feel
For every single living creature is something that is real
Friendship happens so naturally

Fluttershy added her voice to the song. Fluttershy loved all animals, big and small, regardless of species. Friendships happened naturally and always lasted.

Oh, and how I used to wonder. What friendship could be

Twilight remembered her past. She grew up thinking that she never needed friends, or friendship for that matter.

Soon, each member of the Mane Six had joined and and had begun to sing. They stood next to each other. Spike joined in with them.

Luster stared in awe at the sight as she heard her mentor and the Elements Of Harmony sing.

How the Magic of Friendship grows

Twilight finished the song, drawing it out for as long as she could. She walked over and nuzzled Luster Dawn affectionately. The light pink mare jumped and walked over to her friends as they walked off, leaving the Mane Six and Spike to watch her and Luster's friends leave.

Twilight felt a bittersweet tear roll down her cheek as she waved goodbye to her student.

In Heaven...

It had been many millenia for Sunset. She hadn't aged a day. Due to being a nephilim, she was immortal and couldn't die. Most mortal weapons, if not all of them, couldn't hurt her. The bullets would just bounce off and the blades would not harm her, but would damage clothing.

She'd witnessed her friends pass on and die. It broke her heart every time. She wept for them.

Lyra, Bon-Bon, Gilda, Lightning Dust, Octavia, Vinyl Scratch, Adagio, Aria and Sonata. All of them had passed on. The sirens had lived longer than the others. It didn't hurt any less.

They all felt guilty about something and made it her job to help them. She'd eventually helped them all one by one until they absolved their guilt and dealt with it. Doing so brought closure to them.

Eventually, they'd made their way into Heaven.

"Yo, Sunset! Wanna go hang by the forest? After all, it's your home and you live here." Lyra said behind her. The girl looked to be in her early twenties, as did the rest of her friends.

Her uncle Lucifer stayed in Heaven to be with his wife Chloe. He also wanted to be with her cousins Rory, Charlie and Charlotte.

Her aunt Linda had passed on from old age and was in Heaven with Amenadiel and Charlie. The baby had grown up to become an independent young man and she'd watched him grow. She'd supported him as his cousin.

She became a mother herself. She adopted kids who passed away caused by unfair and horrible circumstances. She'd taken them in and raised them as her own. Even though they were in Heaven, they aged until they reached their twenties.

She loved each and every one of them. Sure, they weren't blood related, but they were her kids nonetheless. She'd asked her father if she could make them into angels, and he agreed, as did her mother. She asked her children if that was what they wanted. They agreed to it and they became angels who served alongside their mother and the rest of their family.

"Just coming Lyra. I want to let mom and dad know where I am first. They get worried." Sunset said, giggling as she flew to the royal bedroom, where her parents were.

"Mom, dad, I'm just going to hang out with Lyra and the others for a bit." Sunset said. She knew her parents liked them. They respected her friends for helping her and simply being her friend.

"Sure, kid. Have fun. I'll know where you are, Sunset. You don't need to worry. Be as long as you want until it gets to your namesake." Zarachiel said, giving His daughter permission.

"Thanks dad. Love you guys!" Sunset yelled, running off to be with her friends.

"Love you too!" Both Celestia and Zarachiel yelled in unison. Even though they knew she wouldn't hear them, she knew that they did love her deeply.

Sunset flew over to the forest which had a giant river in the middle of it. On one side of the river and forest was her Aunt Chloe and Lucifer, who were sitting on a picnic blanket with Rory and Charlotte.

"Ah, Sunset. It's wonderful to see you again, dear niece." Lucifer said, getting up as he hugged her softly.

"Good to see you too, Uncle Lucifer. It's good to see ya, Aunt Chloe." Sunset replied, smiling at her aunt-in-law and her cousins.

"Sunset, hi!" Chloe said, grinning at her niece warmly. The girl had a close bond with Lucifer. He explained that the both of them rebelled against their parent and was forgiven by them.

Sunset flew off and eventually landed in front of her friends. She furled her wings away as she and the cluster of friends held a group hug.

They were all impressive musicians with their respective instruments.

"Lyra, Bon-Bon! I've missed you! How've ya been?" Sunset said, grinning with pure joy.

"We've been good, Sunset. We love it, here in Heaven. I'm glad you fixed the system. I'm proud of you, Sunny." Bon-Bon said, handing a sweet to Sunset as she ate it.

Gilda and Sunset shared a special handshake. The same could be said for her and Lightning Dust.

The white-haired woman looked over at Sunset, smirking. She knew how to pass time in Heaven.

"Hey, Sunny, you up for a game of soccer?" Sunset grinned and nodded, cracking her knuckles as she exercised to give herself a better advantage.

The group of friends walked and eventually found a spot of grass to play on.

They stretched and planned the positions as they played Soccer.

Sunset couldn't help but smile. Her friends were in Heaven with her. Even Twilight and Luster. She'd teleported them into the realm after many millenia of each other.

This is my family. I found it, all on my own. It's big, and it's broken. But it's good.

Yeah, still good.

Being Evil Has A Price.

Author's Note

This is an extra chapter that focuses on the relationship between Lucifer and Sunset. Uncle and niece.

Both can relate to one another, they have common ground to bond on.

This chapter explores their backstories and what makes them alike. Lucifer and Zarachiel will also show up to talk to her.

Warning, this chapter will explore teenage rebellion, being kicked out of home along with sensitive topics like guilt and Self-Hatred. There will be emotional parts to it.

This takes place after Crime-Solving Devil and before Don't Look Back In Anger.

Being Evil Has A Price.

Sunset had been told by her father that one of her uncles had been kicked out of Heaven. Her uncle Lucifer. He'd been kicked out for refusing to obey her grandpa, God. And because he wanted Free Will. Her uncle Lucifer had rebelled against him and been kicked out and banished from Heaven shortly after.

Sunset sympathized with him. She'd disobeyed her mother, Princess Celestia and been banished temporarily from Equestria. She'd felt uncomfortable with the idea that she deserved to return home to her mother. She didn't deserve her love.

She'd terrorized the students, tried to magically possess the student body with her magic to take over Equestria, bullied them and destroyed the school. There was no way her mother could still possibly love her after all she had done.

Sunset sighed and looked down at her hands, which caused her to have a flashback to when she was a She-Demon. She no longer bore the scars of the wings on her back, but still had the memories.

As soon as the Elements Of Harmony had struck her with their magic, she'd been forced to feel everything she'd done to the students. Physically. It hurt and she couldn't stop it. She also relived everything, only worsening the guilt.

Some nights, she stayed up, unable to sleep. She loathed herself, disgusted with what she had done. Sure, she had tried to make up for it, and felt her former friends and the student body had forgiven her.

It had turned out to be a lie. All because of the CMC, her ex-friends had stabbed her in the back and betrayed her. The students hurt her and left her with bruises and a black eye at one point.

Sunset placed her head in her hands and started to sob, the memories flashing through her mind. Her own friends had turned their backs on her as soon as they thought she was Anon-A-Miss.

Her crying had caught her father's attention, who walked over to her and pulled her into his arms. Zarachiel saw his little fledgling was upset, and he wanted to know why. He let Sunset cry into his chest for a while to let her get rid of her pain and grief.

Eventually, Sunset had calmed down. The redhead wiped her eyes and sniffled. She looked at her father who gazed back at her with nothing but compassion and love.

"What's wrong, Sunset? What made you upset, my little fledgling?" Zarachiel asked, his voice filled with fatherly concern.

"Dad, do you think I'm a monster? Or think I'm evil?" Sunset asked, more tears brimming in the corners of her eyes. Zarachiel's own golden orbs widened in shock and worry at the questions from his daughter.

Sunset, in his eyes, was no monster. She was his daughter, his little fledgling who he loved dearly with all of his being. She was beautiful and looked so much like her mother.

"No! No, of course not! What made you think that?" Zarachiel asked, alarmed at why Sunset thought that way.

"My own friends turned on me and the students thought I'd gone back to being evil! I changed, dad! I learned friendship, I tried to earn their forgiveness. I was innocent, I didn't do anything! Why did their sisters hurt me? I didn't mean to steal them!" Sunset screamed, unloading her pain as she broke down into sobs. She clutched onto her father and tightened her grip.

Zarachiel wrapped his arms around her tight, his wings gently forming a blanket of protection around her body. It was his way of showing that he'd never abandon her.

Seeing his little fledgling cry broke his heart and stirred the flames of wrath in his heart. Not directed towards his daughter, but her ex-friends and the students.

He could only hold her and watch as Sunset cried in his arms, her body shuddering from stress and heartbreak. All of her pent-up emotions were being released. Sorrow, pain and heartbreak.

Zarachiel kissed her forehead and ran his hand through her golden and red locks. He gently rubbed her back and promised her that things would be alright.

Soon enough, Sunset had calmed down and relaxed in her father's arms. Even though she'd known him for a short amount of time, she'd grown to deeply love him. He'd cared for her, kept her warm, safe and made her feel like she had a home.

"I love you, daddy." Sunset murmured sleepily, her eyes sliding shut from how much she'd tired herself out. A smile formed on her lips as she drifted off to sleep.

Zarachiel smiled and felt a warmth surge through his chest. He loved Sunset. More than words could ever truly say. She was his daughter and nobody would ever harm her again. She deserved better friends. She'd started to make some, ones who treated her with the kindness and loyalty she deserved to be shown.

The Archangel of Life kissed her forehead and let Sunset sleep in his arms. She needed it. He was proud of her. She'd saved the world from The Dazzlings, who were a trio of sirens he'd heard about who tried to use their singing to cause chaos throughout the school to try and rule not only it, but the entire planet.

Sunset hadn't only saved the school, but the entire planet. That was what made him proud of her. Even though she feared she wouldn't be able to defeat them, she stood them down fearlessly and won. She'd technically saved humanity. Their entire species owed her their lives.

Zarachiel allowed his aura to gently flow through Sunset's own, recharging it and making it stronger.

"I love you too, my little fledgling." Zarachiel replied softly, scooping Sunset into his arms as he took her to her bedroom. He placed her in her bed and pulled the covers over her body.

The Archangel of Life felt an idea form in his mind. Perhaps a chat with her crime-solving devil of an uncle could help lift her spirits.

The next morning, Zarachiel called for Lucifer. He and Sunset could relate, and it would help strengthen their relationship as uncle and niece.

The whoosh of wings sounded behind him as Zarachiel turned around to face his brother. Lucifer and Zarachiel had always been close. They'd sparred, groomed each other's wings and spent time together with their clique of siblings in Heaven.

"What did you call me for, brother? I was in the middle of a case with Mrs Lopez and Detective Decker." Lucifer said, observing how forlorn his brother looked.

"Luci, we need to talk." Zarachiel said, the tone of his voice led no room for discussion. And judging by how serious and angry he sounded, Lucifer knew it was important.

"What happened?" Lucifer asked seriously. Something had happened and his brother needed his help. He knew Zarachiel rarely called for him unless it was important.

Zarachiel sighed, preparing to explain to Lucifer what Sunset had asked him last night.

"Sunset asked me if I thought she was a monster or if I thought she was evil. I told her she wasn't either of those things, but I fear she loathes herself. She cried herself to sleep last night. I held her until she calmed down and comforted her best I could. I'm worried for her, brother. I called you down because I want you both to get to know one another, and because you can relate to her, Luci. You and her both rebelled against a parent, was kicked out and banished. You both had demonic forms. Please help me, brother." Zarachiel explained, pleading with his brother to help him.

Lucifer's expression was blank. He remembered being cast out of Heaven and falling down into Hell. He remembered his father's decree of his eternal banishment from his home. It seemed he and his niece had things in common. He would always protect anyone that Amenadiel or Zarachiel cared about.

"I'll help you, brother. And like you said, it's also a good opportunity to create a relationship with my niece." Lucifer replied, nodding firmly as he smiled warmly. He rarely smiled to anyone but Zarachiel, Mrs Lopez, Chloe as the detective had asked him to call her.

As though she had been summoned, Sunset walked into the living room, her hair dishevelled. She sat on the couch across from her uncle and father.

"Morning daddy, uncle Lucifer." Sunset said, smiling happily at seeing her uncle. Lucifer smiled back warmly. The redhead surprisingly walked over and went to hug him, her eyes meeting his. Lucifer nodded at her unasked question. The half-angel teen hugged her uncle, smiling happily as she felt his arms wrap around her back, reciprocating the gesture.

Sunset pulled away and smiled. She wouldn't tell her dad, but uncle Lucifer was her favorite.

Lucifer was the first one to speak, but felt it would be best if he spoke for his brother.

"Sunset, your father is worried for you, as am I, dear niece. Why do you think you're a monster? Or evil?" Lucifer asked softly. Many millenia after he'd fallen from Heaven, he'd loathed himself and cut his wings off. He'd recently gotten them back and started to see himself in a better light. He wanted his niece to see herself better.

"Why do you care, uncle Lucifer? Why?" Sunset asked, tears forming in her eyes. Lucifer met her gaze, a saddened expression on his face.

"Because I see a lot of myself in you. I don't want you to go down the same road I did. I loathed myself and cut off my wings. I started to see myself in a better light and eventually got my wings back. I don't want you to hate yourself like I did. Please, see yourself in a positive light." Lucifer explained softly as Sunset looked at him in shock.

"You aren't a monster, nor are you evil. Not by any means. Sure, you did some bad things, but so have I. So has every human and a few angels. We all make mistakes, Sunset. The important thing is that we've learned from them. You are an intelligent, beautiful and amazing girl, my dear niece. Don't let what others think of you get into your mind." Lucifer replied caringly, his voice filled with warmth, love and care.

"I'm sorry uncle Lucifer, I didn't know." Sunset said, lowering her head in shame. Lucifer could only smile sadly. He wasn't upset with her and wouldn't ever make her think he was.

"It's fine. You didn't know. That is why I care, Sunset. Because both you and I rebelled against our respective parent, got kicked out of our homes and banished. Although I've heard from your father that your mother removed your banishment and forgave you." Lucifer replied gently.

"Thanks, uncle Lucifer." Sunset said, a small smile on her lips. A smile for the first time in a very long time. She felt much better from talking with her uncle. Now she knew much more about him than she had at first. It had built a sort of bond between the both of them.

"You're welcome, Sunset. All you need to do is spend time with your new friends, and forget about the ones who betrayed you. Do not think about them or give them your time or attention." Lucifer replied, smiling gently at her.

Zarachiel smiled at the bond forming between Sunset and her uncle. She seemed to be on the road to recovery. It would be hard, but she would have him, her new friends and her family to help her.

"My little fledgling, I love you more than words could ever allow me to say. I've already forgiven you for everything, so has your uncle Lucifer and your new friends." Zarachiel added, smiling warmly at his daughter. Sunset's aura radiated around her body.

It was dim at first. Now, it had strengthened and glowed brightly like his own.

Sunset turned to her father, a look of worry on her face. Something else was bothering her.

"D-Do you think Mom forgives me?" Sunset asked softly, meeting her father's gentle gaze. She missed her mother dearly. She missed the wing hugs and sleeping against her mother's soft, warm body. She missed staying up to study or spend time with her.

Zarachiel only smiled, he knew his wife would've forgiven Sunset in a heartbeat.

"Of course she has, I know she could never stay mad at you. Your mother always was a forgiving pony. She and I love you very much Sunset. We love you, little fledgling. Never forget that."

Sunset's eyes watered briefly from the declaration of love from her father as she leapt into his arms to hug him. Lucifer watched the father-daughter embrace each other as Zarachiel hugged her.

He smiled and unfurled his wings, heading back to his own world. His niece would get better with time.

Sunset felt her father rub her back, soothing her as she relaxed, her eyes closed and a smile on her lips. Sunset felt so safe that she fell asleep on her father's chest.

Zarachiel looked down at his now asleep fledgling. The rise and fall of her chest indicated that she had fallen asleep. He smiled and carried Sunset to her room. The Archangel of Life put her to bed, letting her nap.

"Love you, daddy." Sunset mumbled in her sleep, a smile etched on her lips. Zarachiel bent down and kissed her forehead.

"Love you too, little fledgling." The Archangel of Life whispered into Sunset's ear. Her lips twitched as they smiled. He left her room to let his daughter get some rest.
