Celestia kept running. That's all she could do. There was something chasing her but each time she tried to turn and see what it was, she could never get a good view of what it is. She made a sharp turn as she fumbled over her own hooves. It striked at her as her chest plate came off but she had to keep running. Celestia looked up as she spotted a branch. Opening her wings she jumped and flew over to the top of the branch. Whatever was chasing her passed her by as she let out a relieved sigh.

She heard a snap as the branch below her gave away. She fell to the floor as she landed on her hoof wrong and the branch fell on top of her wing. Tears streamed from her eyes but she had to fight the pain. She used her magic to move the branch aside as she limped off. A growl came as she groaned to sense that the creature returned. She did her best to run but it was clear that her hoof was injured as she kept limping. Her body could take it no more as she put her hoof down and her knees buckling, falling to the ground. All she could do was turn to face the monster that was after her. She shivered as she tried to shelter herself with the only good wing she had left.

She could almost feel it's hot breath lingering over her as she closed her eyes, praying for a miracle. A few seconds pass as nothing happened. She heard whimpering followed by magic and grunts. She slowly opened her eyes as she lowered her wing. In the shadows she could see the silhouette of a pony. He took one last huff as he turned to face Celestia. His green eyes shined as he started to walk to her. Celestia's heart fluttered as he came into the moonlight and too her. His gray fur shined in the moonlight, his black-grey and blue mane all messy from fighting, and his gaze soft as he went to her side.

He kneeled down to her as he locked eyes with her. Gently he placed his hoof on her cheek as he brought her face closer to his. Her eyes twinkled in the light as she whispered, "Sombra." He smiled back as he said, "Shh, don't speak. I'm here." Her cheeks warmed as he brought her closer to his face. Just as they're lips were about to touch, a loud ringing went through her ears. Celestia opened her eyes as she shook her head.

She sat up looking around, she was in bed. It never happened. Grabbing her pillow she stuffed it to her face as she let out a frustrated cry. Flopping back in bed she laid on her side looking at her bed dresser. There was a picture of many things, a picture of her sister, one with Twilight, even a old one with Sunset, but she pushed them all aside as she pulled a secret lever. It opened a hatch as she reached to grab what was inside. Bringing it to her she looked down at it to read on the gold little scroll, Always.

Staring at it for a few moments more she sighed as she slowly placed it back. Getting up she stretched out as she said, "Well, duty calls." Getting herself together, she placed her crown on her head as she went out of the room. Walking down the hall she made her way outside. Passing by a room she heard noises, followed by laughter. Curious she peeked inside the crack to see who it was. Twilight stood there with a huge grin as Luna picked up a piece of glass. She gasped to see Starswirl laughing as he said, "That should do the trick." Celestia opened the door as she said, "What is going on?" The ponies turned in surprise. Twilight and Luna swiftly stood in front of whatever they were hiding as they smiled. "Nothing my dear sister." Luna said. "Yeah we were just reading a good book about astronomy?" Twilight said. "Really Twilight?" Celestia said with a raise in the brow, "Reading at this hour?"

"It's okay girls," Starswirl said, "We're nearly done so it's time she knows." "Know what?" Celestia said. "Tia," Starswirl said, "You know why I did that all those years ago." "Did-" Celestia started before Starswirl added, "Lock the portal." Celestia was caught off guard of the question as she slowly nodded. "I'm also aware of," he clears his throat, "A little world crossing that happened during my absence, the exact thing I said that would happen type thing." Celestia blushed in embarrassment as he continued, "No matter. The important thing is what we've done now." "Which is?" Celestia said.

"Well," Twilight said, "You know how we reformed our world's Sombra and because of balance, that should only mean it reformed your Sombra." "She's right," Starswirl said, "Because there needs to be balance in the world, it is only natural that alternate world Sombra's evil, which he drained from your alter evil ego selves, has been cured and rid of due to this worlds Sombra being reformed." Celestia stood there blinking a few times but she narrowed them as she moved her head to the side. "It doesn't matter now," Celestia said coldly, "I'm never going to see him again, even if we did reform this world's Sombra. We got rid of the pieces that connects to their world and ours."

"Actually," Luna said as Celestia turned to see them step away, "We didn't." She gasped to see the mirror. She walked to it as she placed her hoof to the mirror. "But how?" she said, "An enchanted mirror of this kind can't be fixed!" "Oh dear Tia," Starswirl said pushing some glue back under the table, "There's no problem that can't be fixed." "All we need now is the last piece." Twilight said. In a matter of seconds, the last piece of the mirror and a golden scroll appeared in the room. Taking a deep breath she placed the piece in as a bright light shined. The ponies shunned there eyes as the light died down.

Celestia slowly put her hoof to the mirror as it went straight through. "I don't know," Celestia hesitated, "I mean, what if I make the same mistake again causing another rift?" Starswirl placed his hoof on her shoulder, "Trust me, it'll be fine." She smiled as she faced the mirror. She didn't take another second more as she went through the portal.

"Celestia, is that you?"

Celestia blinked open her eyes. She was outside the castle as she looked up to see an old fashioned Luna. It was mirror Luna! Getting up she put a hoof to her head saying, "Am I really back?" "It is so," the other Luna said, "It has been years!" "I can't believe it!" she said in joy and shock, "How are you doing? How has everything went for this world? How is the other me? Is she doing fine? Do you guys still have the garden? Most importantly how has-" Mirror Luna placed her hoof over her mouth as Celestia looked back at her. Quiet now, Luna said, "Come with me."

Confused she didn't answer any of her questions Celestia followed her alternate world sister. They walked down the hall of mirrors as Celestia looked at them. She turned her head in shame to see one mirror that depicted the time she and her love made the two worlds collide. She chuckled at another to see this world's Twilight as a nerdy school teacher, although she can see that happening to her Twilight. She took a double take at a certain mirror. There were mares who were all offering hearts to the same stallion however it showed him rejecting each and every one of them. In the mirror next of it she could feel her eyes tear up to see the same pony holding a golden scroll as a thought bubble depicted his one and only. Before she could say or think no more Luna said, "Come on."

Catching up to her she started to recognize some surroundings. She led Celestia outside as she looked around. Those vines, the trees, they all seemed familiar. Luna stopped in front of what looked like an entrance as it all clicked. Luna nodded for Celestia to push away the vines as she walked through. She looked around as she looked at the thousands of tied scrolls to trees, branches, and flowers. "It's the garden." she said. "There's more." Luna said as she motioned her to follow. Slowly following her she kept looking around at all the wonders of this garden as memories came rushing back to her. Luna put a hoof in front of her as she said, "What?" Luna smiled as she pointed.

Celestia followed to where she was pointing as her eyes grew wide. Sitting beside the pond, sat a handsome, broken-hearted, Sombra who looked across the pond. Celestia looked at Luna as she said, "Not to long ago he came back with a fight. It was harsh but we didn't give up. Just then Sombra stopped as he stood in place. His eyes became pure white as golden rays surrounded him. Purple and green magic drained away from him as we all watched in shock. As soon as it was over, he collapsed to the ground. When I went over to him, I could no longer sense the evil that was once inside of him. After doing some research and some theories, we figured maybe something in the other world caused balance that allowed Sombra to return to normal." Celestia looked back at Sombra as Luna continued, "Everything seemed good only one thing still remained. He sincerely missed his dear beloved. Some mares attempted to woe him but he would never accept for only one mare had his heart" She placed her hoof on her shoulder, "He comes here everyday looking out into the pond. He's said he comes here to think and just wishes he could tell you that he is okay." Taking a step back Luna said, "Go to him." Celestia smiled as she hugged her. "Thank you." she whispered. Letting her go she parted away as she made her way to the sadden king.

Sombra was sitting at the very edge of the pond as he picked up a smooth pebble. Looking out he threw it as it skipped a few steps. Plopping in the water, it caused a ripple effect. Sombra looked into his reflection. As the ripples reached him, an image of Celestia appeared, smiling back at him. He sighed, "Celestia, I miss you so." "So have I, I've missed you so much." came a reply. Sombra smiled, "I could still hear her sweet voice." "Turn around!" came her voice again. Sombra turned his head as his muzzle went up against another muzzle. His jaw dropped as he stared back into those oh so enchanting purple eyes. "Hello Sombra." Celestia replied.

"Uhhh-" Sombra said in shock as he felt himself slipping. "Woah!" he said as he slipped back and fell into the water. Celestia's blocked the water with her wing as she giggled. Sombra sat in the water with a lilypad covering his face. Celestia giggled as she used her magic to lift the lilypad from his eyes. Looking back at her Celestia grinned, "Surprise?" Sombra smirked as he grabbed Celestia by her chest plate and pulled her into the water. Splashing beside him, Celestia faced him. Her mane was drenched as it sogged in front of her face. She scowled at him as he moved some hair away to look at her. He started laughing as she started laughing alongside him too. She then surprised him again as she threw her hooves around his waist and hugged him.

He blushed but returned the hug only more tighter. They spent a few seconds hugging each other, not wanting to let go. Pulling back Sombra said, "So uh you want to explain everything because I'm three seconds away from freaking out with questions." "Of course, but first I need to give you something that's been long overdue." Celestia said. She grabbed his face as she pressed her lips against his. His face turned red at the sudden action but quickly returned it, making her face turn to red.

They were both laughing as Sombra placed another flower in her hair. "So Starswirl is back?" Sombra said astonished. "With the help of Twilight and her friends she got him and the other pillars back from limbo." Celestia said with a quick shudder. "There," he said placing the last flower in her main, "You look beautiful." "And before I wasn't?" Celestia questioned. "Of course not my lady!" Sombra declared as he took her hoof and kissed it, "You are the most magnificent and enchanting mare I have ever come to know." Celestia blushed as she laid her head against him.

"So what do we do now?" she asked. "Meaning?" he replied stroking her mane. "Well, what's going to happen to us? I-I mean we could still visit but we would have to be careful and-" she said before he cut her off. "Do not fret, I already know what's going to happen." "Oh do you?" Celestia said, "And what is to happen?" "When we're done here, we'll go back together." "What?" Celestia said in shock as she looked up at him, "But the kingdom here!" "They'll manage without me, I mean they did before when I was...well you know." Sombra replied. "You're really willing to leave what you knew behind for me?" Celestia ased. "Wherever you go, I'll be there." he said. Celestia teared up as he embraced her in a hug.

Walking hoof and hoof they stood before the portal. "Be sure to visit when you can." Mirror Luna said. "I promise." he said. Looking at each other they walked through the portal together. As there eyes adjusted they were greeted by more ponies then they expected. They were both greeted by an excited Pinkie Pie as Cheese used a party cannon to shoot confetti in there face. They both blinked as they said, "Uhh-" "Welcome back Party!" the two shouted as everyone laughed. Looking at each other, the Princess and King laughed with each other.

Sombra stood there with a wide grin. Discord chuckled as he said, "Might want to relax a bit, otherwise your face will grow achy." Shaking his head he said, "I'm sorry it's just I can't believe this is actually happening. Somebody's got to pinch me!" Shrugging Discord pinched Sombra as he let out an annoyed yelp. "King's orders." Discord chuckled as Sombra rolled his eyes. "Discord!" Twilight's sharp voice came, "You better not ruin this! It's the soon-to-be Queen's wedding day!" "Oh hush Twilight," Discord said, "I'm doing no harm. Just helping my good old buddy Sombra." "Both of you silent!" Luna said, "It's starting."

The doors opened as young filly Flurry Heart came wobbling down the aisle. Everyone awed as the toddler threw flower petals down the row with the help of Cadence. Everyone looked in awe as Sombra's face fumed with blush. There stood Celestia, her mane up in a bun, her sky blue and white dress hanging off her shoulders, as she looked down the aisle. Discord shut Sombra's mouth as he said, "Easy there Sombra, you haven't even 'I do' yet." Sombra shook his head as he dreamily sighed. Celestia walked down the aisle as she joined Sombra and Luna at the altar.

"Mares and gentlecolts, we are gathered here today for the unions of a forever always bond. Let this be the day of future harmony, love, and furthermore great years of ruling of future Queen Celestia and King Sombra." "Do you Celestia take this stallion to be your husband, in sickness and in health?" Luna asked. "I do." she said sweetly. "And do you Sombra take this mare to be your lawfully wedded wife?" "I do, oh so very do." he smiled. "May I have the rings." she asked. A squire held a pillow as Luna levitated the rings and placed them onto the two. "Then by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."

Sombra brought her in as he softly kissed her, making the crowd cheer as Rainbow performed a Sonic Rainboom. As Sombra led Celestia to the carriage he bowed, "My lady." "Of course," she giggled, "But first." She threw her bouquet in the air as it landed into Luna's hooves. She blushed as her personal knight standing next to her, Nova, nervously smiled next to her. As they got in and went away, Sombra cupped Celestia's chin. "You will be my forever always." "As you will be my forever always too." she replied back as they kissed again. Neither one of them knew what better things they had in store in time to come.

One Year Later

"It feels so good to get out of the castle every once and awhile don't you think?" Celestia asked. Sombra smiled beside her as they walked down the beach. "It sure is." he said. As they continued to walk Celestia spotted an ice cream vendor. "Oh look Sombra!" she said in a kid like tone, "Ice cream!" She pulled him along as he just chuckled to himself, admiring her child like spirit. Approaching the vendor he asked, "Ah your majesty, I am honored for you to want one of my ice creams. How may I be of assistance?" "What type of ice creams do you have?" she asked. "Well there's chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, peach." he started. "Think you have cotton candy, cookies and cream, and pistachio?" she asked. The two stallions looked at her confused. "Uh yes but are you sure you want that mixture? It seems a bit, well I mean it might not-" he stopped as Celestia went wide eyed saying, "Please?" "Letting out a nervous sigh he said, "Yes my Queen."

"A regular vanilla will be fine." Sombra said as the vendor started making the cones. "Ooo you think you can add a hint of wasabi too?" "Wasabi? Queen it may not-" he said as she gave the same face making him nodd and obey. "Celestia are you alright" he asked as he got his cone. "Of course sweetheart!" Celestia pipped cheerfully, "Why wouldn't I be?" The vendor gave Celestia her ice cream as she happily accepted. Tossing him some bits she said, "Thank you!" Tilting his head he caught up with her as she started to eat her ice cream. "Is it good?" he asked. "Yeup!" she said her face stuffed. Her face was covered in ice cream as Sombra looked at her. Something was weird.

Just before he could say something, her ice cream fell to the floor. She blinked a few times before she teared up. "Hey what's wrong?" Sombra said. "I wasted food!" she cried as tears pooled down her cheek. She pressed her face into his shoulder as he patted her head. "It's-it's fine. You can have mine if you want." Sombra comfort. She suddenly tensed as she pressed her face against his. "What are you trying to say Sombra?" she growled, "That I'm fat. That all I eat is junk?" Sombra took a step back, "Tia what has gotten into you? You're acting really weird."

Celestia blinked a few times as she took a step back. "I-I-I'm sorry," she said putting a hoof to her head, "I don't know what got into me." Sombra put a hoof to her head. "Sure not running a fever, feeling sick." At the mention of sick Celestia's cheeks puffed. "Uh-oh, the ice cream." She rushed to a nearby trash as she barfed into the trash can. She moaned as she cleaned her face and wobbled over back to Sombra.

Helping her stand Sombra said, "You want to head back and see the doctor?" She nodded her head as Sombra help escort her back home.

They sat in the office as they waited for the results. Celestia had drifted to sleep while waiting. Sombra placed a hoof as he held his lady's cheek. His ears clicked as the door opened. "So what's she got?" Sombra asked. "She's perfectly healthy!" the doctor gleamed. "You're sure?" Sombra said with a raise in brow, "Because she's got some crazy mood swings and really odd eating habits lately." "It's perfectly normal when one is expecting." he replied writing down a few more notes. "Good," he sighed in relief before his eyes widen as he said, "Wait what?" "That's right, in due time there's going to be a little foal in the castle." he chuckled as he handed the paper he wrote on to Sombra, "Here's some things you'll have to do. I'll be off to schedule future appointments, you'll be needing them." As he walked out the room Sombra was left in shock as Celestia snapped awake saying, "I swear it wasn't me mom!"

Looking at Sombra's face she said, "Sombra what happened? Did the doctors come in?" He nodded slowly. "And what did he say?" she asked. He merely gave a small smile as he grabbed Celestia's hoof. Celestia felt a piece of paper being put into her hoof. Holding it up she read, "Powder, nutritional diets, exercise methods, milk? Why do I have to take all this stuff? Will it cure me?" Celestia blushed as Sombra placed his head softly over her stomach. "Sombra!" she blushed, "What in Equestria do you think your doing?"

"I can't wait to meet you little one! I love you already!" he cooed. Celestia stiffened as she realized what was going on. Looking up at her Celestia teared up saying, "You mean?" "That's what he said!" Sombra said in glee. "We're having a baby!" they said together. Hugging one another Sombra looked at Celestia as she said, "Wait until everypony gets the news!"

Sombra and Celestia were side by side as they approached Luna who was accompanied by Nova. "There's something we have to tell you!"the four said at the same time, "Huh?" They were all confused. "You go first." Luna said. "No you go." Sombra said. "Okay we'll say it together." Celestia said. "On three." Nova said. "One. Two. Three."

"We're having a baby!"

"We're getting married!"

The four stood there in silence. A janitor walked by as he said, "Boy it's just one thing after another huh?" They all blinked as they all burst into hugs and 'congratulations'.
