The Light Brought Out
Chapter 12: I Do
The light is finally free.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh" Said a nervous Rainbow Dash a hour before the ceremony was suppose to start.
"Rainbow, would you calm down?" said Applejack, "I know you're nervous, but you need to relax." "How can I relax?" she responded "This is a really big day. The past five months have led up to this day."
"Ah know, but you got ta believe that your ready for you to be ready." "Alright." Rainbow responded slowing her breathing. "Maybe I can see her?"
"Nope, bad luck for the brides to see each other before the wedding." "Aww." she said crossing her forehooves and grabbing a cupcake off a tray.
Swatting the cupcake out of her hand, "I can't have you eating food before the wedding and getting icing on your suit." Applejack said reaching a cupcake of her own which Rainbow smacked her hoof away. "Well I can't have the best mare getting any on her suit either." she responded.
"I don't get why you made me where this, feels weird." "Hey, you're the one who said you wanted to be my best mare."
"Well why couldn't Ah just wear a dress." "Cuz, our friends are on the groom because I don't have any family left, but Pinkie does and the groom tend to where suits."
"Oh, uh sorry." "Nah, no big deal." Rainbow said punching Applejack on the shoulder.
"So wait, why does Twilight not have to wear a suit?"
"Oh, I didn't tell you? Well Pinkie picked Twi as her bridesmaid." Rainbow explained.
"Oh, ok." Applejack responded.
"I just hope Pinkie Pie is doing better with nerves than I am."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Pinkie, would you stop pacing for a minute, you're starting to wear away the floor." said Twilight Sparkle.
"I can't, I'm sooo nervous, but sooo excited!" Pinkie Pie said stepping out of the shallow rut she wore into the floor.
"I know, uh how about you tell me what's got you so nervous?" "Yea, that's a great idea!" she said walking over to a chair.
"So, what's up?" "Well I'm kind of worried about my gown. Maybe making it pink was a bit too much like my mom said."
"Oh Pinkie, you look great that shouldn't worry you." Twilight said. "Well what about the flower girls?"
"The Cutie Mark Crusaders are here and ready."
"Alright, and Rainbow Dash?" "Pinkie you know you can't see her until the ceremony starts."
"Why not?" "Because it's bad luck, and besides I'm sure she's fine."
"Humph, superstitions." she muttered under her breath.
"Any other concerns?"
"Well what if I'm not ready?"
"Aww Pinkie," Twilight said giving her a hug, "why would you think that?"
"I don't know. It's just that when we were on that hill during the Bash, I was stunned at first..." "But then?"
"Well I got all excited and stuff, and I said yes. Then she told me that she didn't mean to propose, and then..." she trailed off about what happened after that, but they all knew she almost killed Rainbow.
"Yea, I hear you." Twilight said.
"Then after you guys freed me she took me to her cloud house." "But wait, I thought you said that she sprained her wing."
"She did," Pinkie said, "but she broke it back into place. After she did that she flew me up there and grabbed the necklace and proposed.
"Oh so that's how you guys got engaged." "Yup, and I've loved her ever since that fateful day."
"So, has talking about it made you feel better?" Twilight asked. "Yea, thanks."
"Look," Twilight said pointing to a clock. "they're probably already at the alter, ready?"
"Couldn't possibly be any more ready!" Pinkie said confidently.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
There Rainbow Dash stood, at the end of the isle and the beginning of her life with Pinkie. The flower girls had just finished going down the isle and Pinkie would be coming down soon.
Then Pinkie stepped through the doors with her father at her side. He and his wife had come all the way from their rock farm.
"Wow." Rainbow muttered under her breath at the veiled Pinkie. She began to sweat as Pinkie walked up the steps and onto the alter.
They had the honor of having Celestia be the person to wed them.
After what seemed life forever it was time for the rings andvows.
Rainbow's wedding necklace was a rainbow colored balloon, and Pinkie's was a pink lightning bolt
"I Rainbow Dash promise that I will be loyal to you for the rest of our lives. I am fully prepared to die for you and will defend you with my life."
"And I Pinkamena Diane Pie promise that you will be the only pony for me as long as we both live. I will be at your side to laugh with you and cry with you.
"Rainbow Dash, do you take Pinkamena Diane Pie to be your lawful wedded wife?"
"I do." She said.
"And do you, Pinkamena Diane Pie take Rainbow Dash to be your lawful wedded wife?"
"I do." She said.
"Then, by the power vested in me by the land of Equestria, I now declare you mare and wife. You may now kiss the bride?"
Then Rainbow lifted up the pink veil to expose her beautiful face and eyes.
"I love you." she said.
"I love you too."
Then they kissed, their love eternally sealed with it.
And in the croud sat a softly smileing Shine.
