//------------------------------// // 10-bet you a hundred they dont last two months together! // Story: the wedding is off (a reimagining) // by wertyui //------------------------------// It had been nearly six months since the changeling attack, but now everything had been nearly restored to normal, Twilight was now friends with everypony again and was officially Celestia's student once again, and Shining Armor and Princess Cadance were together again. later that day he was later reinstated as captain of the guards. in three months, twilight cleared all the lies she told, the apples and cakes tearfully reunited, pinkie was allowed to have as much cake as she wanted for the next few days, Fluttershy's animals used their collective efforts to make dinner for Fluttershy, and angel pledged not to be so picky. rarities customers poured in official apology letters for days, hoity-toity went into talks with her about making a new line of clothing, and spitfire officially apologized to rainbow dash, making it up to her by officially making her a wonder bolt with the highest honor, she also received help for her developing drinking problem. unfortunately, not everypony was so forgiving. she was banned from certain establishments, many ponies still gave her dirty looks, and of course, she had a blemish on her record, but she didn't care, all that mattered was the wellbeing of those around her. (oh, and Neighsay was planning revenge on twilightsparkelanyways..........................................................................................> a real wedding was taking place in the same room as it was originally going to take place six months ago, twilight had cleaned and repaired it from when she lost her temper and destroyed it then, she paid for all the damages she caused that day, but here she was in her wedding dress standing beside her brother who was once again wearing his red guard uniform and blue sash as trumpets played in the background, night light and twilight velvet were there, luckily she wasn't permanently damaged, but had temporary blindness in one eye and half blindness in the other, and a small scar across her forehead, night light had heard the truth, though still mad at shining, reluctantly, he let him back in. Twilight nuzzled her brother's cheek. "Seriously, though." twilight asked as she straightened her brother's bowtie " I get why the queen of the changelings wanted to be with you, but how did you get someone as amazing as Cadance to marry you?" shining merely said "I told her she wouldn't just be gaining a husband. She'd be getting a pretty great sister, too." Twilight's friends were back in the dresses that they had worn before while Celestia stood in the center. "Mares and Gentlecolts, we are gathered here in the sight of God for a momentous occasion," she said, the ponies at the edge of the door started playing the trumpets, and in came Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Apple Bloom(who had been missing for a while, I swear ill explain in another story) in their flower filly dresses tossing flower petals alongside the aisle with Cadance behind them, looking as beautiful as a diamond walking up towards the edge of the aisle wearing a pink and white dress with a purple bow ribbon in the back center, her mane had been pulled back and she had the sweet smell of perfume on her whole body. Shining Armor stared in awe at her looks. Cadance stood alongside Shining Armor with a smile on her face. knowing this would be the last day she'd ever have to spend without him "Does thou Princess Mi Amore Cadenza...." "Princess Cadance is fine." Cadence interrupted. Celestia giggled, "Princess Cadance take Shining Armor to be your lawfully wedded husband, for better or worse, in sickness and in health, and until death do you part?" Cadance had tears forming in her eyes, "I do!" she exclaimed, Shining Armor was now relieved big time, and why wouldn't he be, Cadance was serious enough about giving him another chance as she said, and he was just as serious about giving her a second chance, Celestia then turned to Shining Armor. "Shining Armor, do you take Princess Cadance to be your lawfully wedded wife, for better or worse, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?" "I do." Shining Armor said with a smile. "May we please have the rings?" Celestia asked, Spike was wearing a fresh brand new tux and hat and walked up to the stage with the re-engaged rings,(a little duct tape will do ya) Celestia put them on Cadance and Shining Armor's horns. "you may now kiss the bride." Shining Armor and Cadance then touched lips and kissed, Rarity cried and levitated a tissue while Applejack put her hat on. because country waits for nopony. “This is your victory as much as theirs,” Princess Celestia said to Twilight. “You persisted in the face of doubt, and your actions led to your being able to bring the real Princess Cadance back to us Learning to trust your instincts is a valuable lesson to learn.” "Learning to trust others is just as important" Twilight remorsefully admitted. Celestia nodded her head in agreement “Rainbow Dash, that’s your cue.” she whispered into the young pilot's ear as she literally flew right out of her bridesmaid gown, high in the air above the castle, and set off her long-awaited Sonic Rainboom which spread across the entire sky above Canterlot. “Best… Wedding… EVER!” Dash cheered as she flew through the air. Later on, after the wedding there was a big reception out in the gardens, the cake was eaten, the songs were sung, and everypony danced. After everything, Shining Armor and Cadance entered the carriage bound to depart for their honeymoon, Shining Armor went in after cadence, but before he did, he looked over at Twilight and gave her a big hug for all she did. "Twilight! None of this would've been possible without you, little sis. Love ya, Twily.." he said. "Love you too B.B.B.F.F.," Twilight said smiling at the touch of her brother's hug. as he climbed in, Cadance threw the flowers out into the crowd before the wagon departed, causing rarity to go into a frenzy for them, Twilight watched them leave for their honeymoon with a smile on her face, and she was soon joined by her friends. "Now that was a good wedding," Twilight said. Spike jokingly said "Oh, yeah? Just wait until you see what I have planned for the bachelor party!" the whole group laughed at the thought "And let's never forget, if it hadn't been for your warning darling, this never would've happened." Rarity said. "Girls come on," Twilight said cheerfully, "you give me far too much credit, if you didn't fight back the changelings with me, I would've wound up in a cocoon! besides, we're all friends again, that's all that matters right now, to the bitter end." Pretty soon they all got together in a group hug as fireworks lit up the night skies over Canterlot. "you know, even though we were at our worst when we fought back the army, it felt like old times, it still felt good, despite everything, I guess we did do something right."
