Route one: A True Champ

One and two," Diamond and Silver Spoon said in unison "

"three and four," Bitter Bell and Scootaloo said also in unison.

"Everybody loves us more." They all said.

"We are working on it" said Silver Spoon.

They laughed at her, than walked away. Their cutie marks flashed in the sun light, She had won the game. Joy and relief filled the darkness she was in and that made Crimson wince in annoyance. A light shined and the dark tar retreated to its holder. All faded to black and he was shocked.

"Congratulations you have won. You may be set free young Apple Bloom" He said with a smile.

His horn lit red and a spell was cast shocking her into reality. Apple bloom still had a barrel of questions but now she had a scratch on her chest where the bot was panded. Than she saw the light of Luna's beautify lit up moon, the trees swaying in the wind, and the faint sound of clouds dale starting to get going. Crimson was gone and she had a slight head ache. Her eyes were dry like a desert so they watered up. She knew she was back and she knew she had fought hard. She wanted her reward in seeing her friends again. As the tree house was lit with moon night, she could see, Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo on the floor, but sweetie had black on her horn. Both of them had a mark on their chest, an eye with a star like twilights in the middle. They didn't move, from her knowledge, they had both lost the game. She sobbed as the sky turned to the colors of day, but for Apple Bloom, everything seemed dark.

Celestia why? Why me? She asked than yelled "WHY?"
