I know it's been a long time since I updated, but here's the epilogue I promised! Between writer's block, my other stories, my old laptop dying on me and a few other things it was just... hard to get around to writing this. But I hope you like my little ending anyway!
It's been about a year since Ayumu first arrived in Equestria. The zombie has since kept his word on keeping touch with Spike and even visits Ponyville whenever the group wasn't busy. They were even invited to Twlight's brother, Shining Armor and Princess Cadence's wedding, while the changeling invasion was a problem, it was still a pretty good time.
But when Ayumu accidentally shattered Mysteltainn they had no way to visit for a good while and they missed a lot, like Spike saving the lost Crystal Empire, Ayumu was really proud of him when the baby dragon wrote to him that day. Not to mention the trouble with magical garment girl Chris kept them busy, luckily they got Mysteltainn fixed.
Now we take place a little after the Belphegor incident (Ayumu's still a little fuzzy on exactly what happened that day) and Chris has been pretty dormant for some reason. So everyone was still a little on edge, luckily that night they heard Ayumu's book ringing (yes, like a phone) and when he read it's message they got amazing yet shocking news.
"Egghead Pony's a princess?!" Haruna exclaimed in disbeliefat what Ayumu told her and the group, including Tomonori, AKA Yuki/ Mael Strom and Sarasvati, AKA Kirara when in public, who happened to be visiting. Well Tomonori was visiting and he caught Saras trying to take pictures of his butt. Again.
"Yeah... Twilight's an alicorn now..." Ayumu said in a bit of a stupor. Spike explained that after Twilight completed an unfinished spell, plus everything she has accomplished with her friends since arriving in Ponyville allowed her to ascend into an alicorn.
"And not just that." Sera spoke up as she looked in the book as well. "It looks like Spike invited us to Twilight's coronation tomorrow afternoon."
'Really?' Eu asked through her notes.
"Wow! You guys are really lucky!" Tomonori elated to them.
After she said that, Ayumu wrote something in the book and waited a bit until it glowed and ringed again to receive another message.
"Well I just asked Spike if I can bring few more people and he had no problem with it!" Ayumu said with a smile.
Tomonori just got a big grin on her face "Really?! We get to come to? Sweet!" She then turned to the other vampire-ninja in the room. "That's awesome, isn't Saras? We finally get to see this Equestria place!"
Sarasvati on the other hand was a little apprehensive of the idea. "I don't know... we're going to unknown world..."
"Sarasvati, I can assure you this place is safe." Sera assured her superior.
"Yeah! Not to mention we've been there plenty of times! You don't have any concerts happening and you can always have the other vampire-ninjas to help with the cafe." Haruna added.
'I agree.' Eu contributed.
"It's not just that. It's that from what you told me that when go that world, we'll have different bodies and our clothes disappear...!" Sarasvati paused for a moment when she realized something. If their clothes are going to vanish when they go that world... that means she'll get to see Ayumu's lovely behind! But in dragon form!
"On second thought, I will join you in Equestria!" She exclaimed with resolve and stars in her eyes as she slammed her hand on the table.
Ayumu instinctively backed away from her. Already starting to regret the idea...
The next day in Equestria...
In Canterlot Castle, Spike was pacing around the castle halls as Twilgiht was getting ready int the other room with the others.
"Spike, calm down. Ayumu WILL be here." Twilight assured peaking her head out the door. "Now that Haruna's chainsaw is fixed there's no way he's gonna pass up seeing you again."
"Besides he Pinkie Promised~!" He heard Pinkie chime in from inside.
Since he heard Mysteltainn broke and the problems with this "Chris" person, they have been restricted to talking to each through their books for a while.
"Yeah, I know, but..." Spike didn't even finish his sentence as he then heard a whoosh of air behind him and a familiar portal opened up from right behind the castle.
Putting on the biggest grin on his face he ran towards the figures that came out. "Ayumu!"
Ayumu, wearing the tux Rarity made for him for the wedding, braced himself when Spike jumped up at him and gave him a hug.
"It's so good to see you, kid!" Ayumu laughed as he returned the hug and gave the baby dragon a light noogie.
"What are we, chopped liver?!" Haruna exclaimed in irritation, the other girls by his side.
Spike chuckled a bit as Ayumu set him down. "Sorry about that, Haruna. It's nice to see you guys to."
He went over to hug her, Eu and Sera and noticed the four new arrivals. Two of them were bat-ponies like Sera, but one had a blonde coat, a short lighter blonde mane and tail, green eyes and her cutie mark was a bowl of ramen with bat wings. The other had a dark red coat, equally red eyes, a long black mane and tail and her cutie mark was a bat surrounded by music notes.
The third stranger was not a pony but surpringly, a Diamond Dog. He was around the same height as Ayumu, had a sandy blonde coat with the fur near his head slightly longer than the rest and ended in darker tips and dark brown eyes.
The last stranger was a griffon. She had red head-feathers that extended slightly further out, gold colored eyes and her lion body was dark blue with black wings and claws.
"Oh hello. You must be the other guests Ayumu mentioned." Twilight said as he motioned them into the room. "I'm Twilight Sparkle and this is Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy and you already met Spike."
The blonde bat-pony nodded. "Got that right! So you're the famous Spike my husband talks nonstop about!"
"Mael Strom!" The red bat-pony scolded, almost in jealousy. Ayumu's face turned as red as her coat from embarrassment.
"Husband?" Spike parroted in confusion before it clicked in his mind on who this was. "You wouldn't happen to be Tomonori, would you?"
"Yuki."
"I'm sorry?"
"My alias name is Yuki! I just have that nickname because of Ayumu's pervy friend!" Tomonori huffed in annoyance.
"...Yuki it is then." Spike said not wanting to start off on a bad note. It seemed to work.
"Awww~ I forgive ya! Can't stay mad at this cute little face!" Tomonori assured as she patted Spike on the head, much to his chagrin.
"Ok quit it." Twilight said as she took her hoof away. That was when Ayumu noticed her new wings.
"Whoa..."
"I know." She said looking back at them. "It still doesn't feel real..."
The griffon came up to her and and gave her an assuring smile. "Relax. I understand that this may be frightening but I can tell you have others to see your new princesshood through."
"She's right sugarcube. We'll be right there with ya every step of da way. Ain't dat right, ladies?" Applejack added as the rest of there group nodded.
The newly ascended alicorn smiled at their words. "Thank you so much, girls. And you too miss... um."
"Naegleria Nebiros." The griffon introduced herself. "But please call me Nene."
Rainbow Dash mumbled the name for a moment before she let out a large gasp. "Wait you're one of these Seventh Abyss warriors Ayumu talked about?!"
Nene giggled at her enthusiasm. "The strongest one actually. But that was a long time...zzzzzzz"
Rainbow raised a brow at Nene, who fell asleep... standing up. "Uh... hello?"
"Oh dear... Um is she alright?" Fluttershy asked with concern.
Eu held up a note to Fluttershy' s face. 'She's fine. She just has an erratic sleep system.'
She then gave the griffon a shake, causing her to stir a bit. "I'm awake... I was just resting my...zzzzzz"
The Diamond Dog chuckled a bit. "It's almost hard to believe she's the Underworld's strongest, isn't it?"
"Maybe a little." Rainbow admitted, eyeing him for a bit.
"Oh where are my manners? Shimomura at your service." He introduced in an almost... sparkly way.
It seemed to get Pinkie's attention. "Ooooh~ Shiny!"
"Heh heh, I get that a lot."
As that was going on, Sarasvati was in the back, almost unsure of what to do, so she was looking at the spare dresses on the rack (and was very impressed on how well made they were). At least until Spike walked up to her.
"Hey, what's your name?" He asked nicely, noticing she was another bat-pony. "Are you another vampire-ninja?"
"Yes. I am Sarasvati." She replied bluntly as she continued to look through the dresses.
"Do you like them darling?" Rarity spoke up, coming towards them. "Not to brag or anything but I made these dresses myself."
Saras looked surprised. "Really? These are amazing!"
"Why thank you. It wasn't easy getting all these outfits ready for today, but it was worth it!"
Before they knew it the two hit it off, even discussing if Rarity could make Sarasvati outfits for her next concert.
Spike snuck away for a moment to be by Ayumu's side. He then gave the zombie dragon a poke on his leg.
"Yes, Spike?"
The baby dragon said nothing, only giving Ayumu a hug around his legs. "I really missed you, y'know?"
Ayumu felt a tug in his non-beating heart and returned the hug; not really caring if the others saw him. "Me too kid. Me too."
THE END
Well... that's it. Hope you enjoyed this story! Also if any other bronies are watching this then you've probably seen the Season 6 episode "Gauntlet of Fire" (In my opinion one of the best Spike episodes to date). Am I gonna make a sequel? Maaaaybeeee~!
