Soon enough, it was getting after dark and that meant it was time for bed.

"Oh, my sweet girl..." Charlotte hugged her granddaughter. "I'm so glad you're safe and sound."

"I know, Nana Lottie." Darla smiled.

"And it was nice of Non to help you girls." Charlotte smiled.

"I know, it was a big surprise for us..." Darla nodded. "I don't know what we'd do if he hadn't decided to help."

"Same here." Maisy said.

Charlotte kissed Darla's forehead and tucked her in for the night before going with Miss Clavel. Darla slept peacefully that night. It was a wonderful night for everybody and tomorrow was going to be even better. Amber smiled as she saw her best friend fast asleep which helped her sleep much better that night.


The next day was both a happy day, but a confusing day as Non was nowhere to be seen except a note from Sombra. Everyone called out for Non only to be unable to see him anywhere.

"There's a note." Cherry said before she took it and her face paled once she saw who it was from.

"If you are wondering where Non is; I sent him back into the Phantom Zone - From Sombra." The note said.

"You okay, Cherry?" Atticus asked.

Cherry gulped and showed the note. "You got a letter from your dear old Uncle Sombra."

"I bet it comes with bad news." Atticus said.

Cherry handed him the letter and held her head. "I need to lie down..."

Atticus soon read the note and where he was right as this was bad news.

"I need to lie down now..." Cherry said since she was deathly afraid of Sombra. As she lied down, a celebration was being held.

"Poor Cherry..." Atticus sighed before he covered his best friend with a blanket and gave her a pillow so she would feel comfortable and where she was indeed comfortable with both the blanket and pillow.

"You're such a good friend." Darla smiled up to her big brother.

"I know." Atticus smiled back.


Cherry shivered and whimpered about Sombra as the others went to the ceremony without her. She soon stopped shivering as her grandmother soon arrived in her dream. "Grandma..."

"Cherry, my dear, are you all right?" Mally comforted.

"King Sombra..." Cherry uttered out.

"Well, don't worry; he only appears to cause a little chaos since Earth isn't someplace he's interested in ruling." Mally said.

"But he's taken Non..." Cherry replied. "At least I'll have some rest before the next adventure... Whatever that might be."

"Non will be back, but will be acting like a villain until Atticus's son appears to save his beloved." Mally said.

"Oh, yeah... That kid... Atiko?" Cherry asked.

"Akito." Mally corrected.

"Whatever, it's a weird name..." Cherry shrugged.

"Anyway, you all will see Non again." Mally said.

Cherry sighed about that. "Yes, Grandma..."

"Anyway, the celebration is starting." Mally said.

"I know..." Cherry replied.

"Aren't you gonna go?" Mally asked.

"Why? I didn't do anything..." Cherry shrugged.

"It's polite to attend a celebration." Mally said.

"Yes, Grandma..." Cherry sighed as she then helped herself out of bed.

Mally soon used her magic to give Cherry a dress to wear.

Cherry just knew that she would have to wear a dress. She then looked in the mirror and flinched at the pink color. "Um, do you have anything... Less pink?"

Mally then made a red and white dress with a small smirk.'

"Very funny..." Cherry narrowed her eyes at her grandmother.

"All right, I'm sorry." Mally laughed and then made the dress blue which was Cherry's favorite color.

"Much better." Cherry said.

Mally patted her granddaughter on the head and let her go. Cherry then collected her purse and went out to the celebration and where everyone was there.


The sweatshop girls were all cleaned up and dressed in better clothes as they were standing with Darla and Madeline as Lord Cucuface was next to them. Even the Pound Puppies and Kennel Kittens were there.

"It was so lovely to meet you, darlings, we must do it again someday." Mewsette smiled to their American counterparts.

"We sure will." Maisy said.

Darla and Madeline playfully held out the scissors to their sweatshop friends as it made them giggle and they cut the ceremonial ribbon.

"Where did they get those scissors?" Maisy asked.

"They were given from Lord Cucuface, it's part of the ceremony." Patch told her as they watched.

Speaking of Lord Cucuface, he proudly stepped forward to the crowd. "Madams, monsieurs, mes enfants, and cheins with chats!" he then smiled to everyone, including the cats and dogs. "I am proud to announce that our new city School for Girls is funded so generously by our very own Madeline and Darla, officially open!"

Darla was happy about this. The crowd cheered and was in awe of Darla and Madeline's generosity that a purple gem symbol like Rarity's Element of Harmony seemed to glow over Darla and Madeline to show their proud sacrifice.

"What was that?" Maisy asked.

"You saw that too?" Patch asked. "I've been noticing it lately when the others have been showing signs of everyone's Elements of Harmony. It's like a reward from Equestria somehow."

"Hmm... Maybe it's Equestria's magic doing its work." Maisy said.

"Sounds logical to me." Patch agreed.

"We have a lot to learn about this Equestria." Lucky whispered to Cookie as she then nodded to him.

"And may I say, they're top proper girls, the very best!" Lord Cucuface continued.

The girls then curtsied in response.

'This is the best day ever.' Maisy thought to herself.

"Your parents would be so proud, honey lamb." Charlotte hugged Darla as balloons were released into the sky.

"I know that they would." Darla smiled.

Pepito soon surprised Nicole with her bag of marbles.

"Merci, Gracias, Pepito." Nicole smiled in thanks.

'Aw!' Mewsette thought to herself.

Fifi soon walked over and hugged Darla and Madeline which made them of course, hug her back. "Merci, beaucop, mes ami," she smiled to both girls. "I am not coughing anymore at last. Dr. Cohn has made me better."

"That's great." Darla smiled back.

"Fifi is my star patient." Dr. Cohn smiled proudly.

"You will visit often?" Fifi asked Darla and Madeline hopefully.

"Of course." Darla smiled.

"We have sister schools!" Madeline added.

"I'm very impressed you girls chose to donate your reward money for a new school." Miss Clavel smiled to Darla and Madeline.

"It is what our mothers would wish," Madeline replied as she hugged the beads on her new necklace. "To share with family."

"And we are so lucky," Darla added. "Our family is so very big!"

"Indeed it is." Charlotte smiled.

"And so are your hearts, mon petites." Miss Clavel added.

Nothing could possibly have been able to ruin that moment, but there was one thing. Cherry sighed as she joined the others, still a little shook up from King Sombra's note about Non and where they were now leaving for home.


"This was a lot of fun, Madeline, even better than the first adventure." Amber smiled.

"Yes, a lot of fun." Darla agreed with her best friend.

"'Ave a safe journey home." Madeline smiled back as she hugged the both of them.

"We will." Darla smiled.

Madeline then gave them petite French pink flowers known as peonies.

"They're beautiful." Amber smiled.

"They are called peonies." Madeline smiled back.

"Oh, thank you, Madeline." Darla beamed to her biological cousin.

They soon got on their plane. Everyone waved as they were on their way out of Paris. And where they saw Madeline and the girls waving goodbye to them.

"My own cousin..." Darla whispered to herself.

The End
