I was on a cloud trying to take a nap. However, I was awoken by a voice I knew.

"Rainbow Dash!" it called. I looked down to see my former friend, Twilight Sparkle. I just went back to my nap.

"Rainbow! Please, talk to me!" Twilight begged.

"No." I replied.

"Well, that's something." Twilight said. I flew off the cloud and pushed it higher.

"Rainbow Dash! Is this because you found Fluttershy's body?" Twilight asked flying up.

"That's right, you have wings now." I commented. "And no, that's not why I'm not talking to anypony."

"You're talking to me." Twilight said. I glared at her, hoping she would leave. She didn't, so I tuned away from her and tried napping.

"Rainbow, you can talk to me. I'm your friend!" Twilight explained.

"I have no friends anymore." I told her. It was clear that Twilight wanted my friendship. I also wanted to be her friend. But I couldn't. If she found out what happened, she'd never forgive me.

"Twilight, just go. Try Pinkie." I suggested.

"I already tried Pinkie. She rejected me." Twilight explained to me.

"I've had enough." I said. I flew up to my cloud house. I slammed the door and locked it so Twilight couldn't get inside. I walked over to my bed. I pulled out a box from under it. I pulled a key from my drawer. I unlocked it and pulled out a journal. It's not a diary, it's a journal. Diaries are for ponies like Rarity. I opened to a new page and started to write.

Dear Journal,

Today I was met by my old friend Twilight Sparkle. I said I didn't want to be her friend, but she wouldn't stop. To be honest, I could use a friend right now. I can't stop thinking about what happened with Fluttershy during the war. If only I was more like Applejack. She sacrificed herself to stop the enemy from attacking her family. She was so brave to strap the bomb to her and run into that crowd. If I was like Applejack, Fluttershy would be here. Maybe I should go back and see Twilight. No. She's probably mad at me. What should I do?

I put down my pencil. "I wonder how Spike is doing?" I wondered.
