Epilogue: Peace Between Worlds

Once the Lustrous returned back to their universe, they were just having a very peaceful day. Even waiting for a possible Lunarian Attack, they were just soaking up the Sunshine from their world. Spinel, Bort, Phos and Diamond remembered the adventure they had in Equestria and how they returned it to it's former glory.

"To think that Journey could of been a dream?" Phos said to their fellow Gemstones. "Why would it be? We saved an entire new world, even if we stayed their for a week." Spinel reminded them.

Diamond was then curious on one thing. "What do you think the Lunarians were doing when we were gone? They didn't even think of attacking us as we were in a new World." "Not too sure, but if they hear about our return, we'll have to be ready!" Bort replied, looking up to the sky, which not a single one ever came.

Getting bored, they then checked with the other Gemstones to see if they need any help, since they didn't get to see them much, starting with Obsidian, who was still their chipper self. "Hey guys! What's going on?" "We thought we could see how your doing after the hard work you put through when making the Armor for Shining and his Army." "Well, it was hard work, but I'm glad I did make something rather than Swords, but I love Making Weaponry for the others." They saw they didn't loose their chipper self as they then left them.

Meanwhile back at the Crystal Empire, they were doing some repairs and clearing out Sombra's Crystals and the many Shards of Corruptous the Mane 6 and the Gemstones shattered.

Rainbow Dash was getting bored with cleaning up. "Man, this bites! Why are we cleaning up the mess Sombra and the Gemstones left?" We have to do our parts. We made it and we'll have to clean up after ourselves." Twilight told her, as she then looked down.

"I don't get why they had to leave this early. We could of known each other more." "Because like they said, this wasn't their world to begin with." They were then greeted by Celestia, who Twilight was glad to see was ok. "I should apologies to you all for what I have done and how much pain I caused onto all of you." "It's Ok, Princess. You were under Sombra's control and he made you do all that awful stuff to us, me included." Twilight said, forgiving her mentor.

"And to make it up to you, since you won't be ready for a while, why don't me and my sister take charge for a little while longer, just if you feel like your really ready." She offered, which Twilight and her friends thought could be a great offer. "That will be a great lesson for all of us; Wait before you make a hasty decision." Twilight said, which everyone laughed a little. "That would be a good lesson to begin with. Maybe we should dedicate it to our Gemstone friends."

Just then, Celestia remembered something. "Oh yeah, before I do forget, they have left us something before they left themselves. Inside the Palace." They all wondered what it was, as they then headed back inside.

Once inside, they saw Cadence and Shining playing a little with Flurry, who was cuddling Whammy. They were glad to see Cadence was back to normal too. "I just want to say to you all thank you, or should I said thank all of you! Because of what you 6 and the Gemstones did, you freed Equestria from Sombra's influence and never gave up on your friendship!"

"Maybe that, but it was all the Gemstones did all the work, you know, freeing us, making an army of their own, defeated Sombra..." Pinkie Pie then told her a short story about them to her, which she then stopped by Rarity. "What about these Gifts they left us?"

Cadence pointed them to the case on top of her throne, which they were curious on what they are.

Back in the Lustrous' Schoolhouse, Spinel and the Gemstones headed to Kongo's room, as he wasn't Meditating and soaking up some of the Sunlight coming from the windows. "I see you wanted to see me last and about our return." "We're glad to be home where we really belong, Sensei, but we're also curious on the next Lunarian attack?" Bort said, as Kongo knew they were waiting for that.

"Nothing to report from Jade yet, but if there is one, they'll let you know." Bort thought about that, but was going to wait on stand by, just if there was one. "You all did the right thing and made the right Choice. This world is where we belong. If they did teleport to this world, they won't make it after a day." Spinel understood that. "Just hope they received the Presents I left them." Kongo then smiled at Spinel. "I'm sure they'll receive them."

Once they left Kongo's room, they were looking down at the grass of the lands, thinking of what else to do. Phos was then curious on one thing. "Hey Spinel, what did you give them?" "Yeah. You told Kongo about a gift to them. What are they?" Spinel smiled as they kept looking out to the Grasslands. "Let's just say 'When they need to power up with us again, they'll be ready and too remember us by'." They told them, still looking at the Grasslands.

Back in the Crystal Empire, The Mane 6 couldn't believe they were given new Pendants for their Necklaces and Crown for Twilight, which shined the same Colors of the Gemstones and from the Crystal Heart. "Hey, what's that?" Fluttershy asked as Rarity picked it up and looked at it, until she saw what else they left them. "What is it?" Applejack asked as Rarity showed her the cover. "'A Book of Gemology'?" Applejack and Fluttershy then giggled, as Rarity was unamused. "Very Funny, Spinel!"

Just then, Rainbow Dash found something else in the Case the new Pendants came from. "Hey guys, Look at this!" She then gave it to Twilight. "It's from the Gemstones!" She then read it out.

To our Equestrian friends,

We just want to say thank you for everything you done for us. Since we haven't known each other for much time, we hope these new Pendants for your Elements could be some use. If it's too much, don't worry, this is our gifts to you. Good luck on your own Journey.

And also, thank you for returning us back to our Universe. We'll never forget it.

Your friends, the Gemstones.

They were heartwarmed from the letter they just read, seeing they would never forget them, as Twilight then remembered something else. "Something wrong?" Shining asked his sister. "Well, when the Gemstones fired the Beam at Sombra, he said 'It wasn't the last time we'll see him'. I don't know if that's a threat for his return..." She then paniced as he then conforted her.

"Don't worry, if he'll ever return, those new Pendants will come in handy." Shining said to her. "But what about those Corruptous things? Haven't we seen the last of thoses?" She then said, as she was trying to calm down, only to be comforted by her friends. "Don't worry, we shattered all of them into nothing. We won't be seeing one of them anytime soon!"

Meanwhile outside the Empire, Starlight was sweeping some Shattered remains of Sombra and Corruptous from the grounds around the Palace. Thinking it was a job well done, she then headed to Sunburst's House to celebrate a little, not realising a Shattered Hand with Red cracks reached out from Shards.

Author's Note:

And just like that, the Adventure is over... or is it?

I know I haven't included many of the Gemstones or Forbidden Powers in this Story, but there wasn't much stuff to put or include them into.

Anyway, thank you for reading.
