Touch the Sky


*strokes blanket* I am a good writer. I am a good writer. I am a good writer...

T

The Elements of Harmony bind Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash together, but none, not even Celestia, understand how deep these ties go.
After the tragic death of one of the six, their friends mourn, but life goes on for the remaining five.
Or does it?

Good sir, I do believe your icon is splendid. :moustache:

I don't like how some random six ponies became the new elements. The new elements should have been Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Spike, Pipsqueak, and Dinky. (Or the cake twins instead of Pipsqueak and Dinky) Would have been more poetic.

Le damn.
This hurts.
But I must press on.

And on that day, Spike realized that, despite opening up to him so easily when they met, Fluttershy didn't give a shit about him.

EDIT: Just in case that thumbs-up on my comment came from someone thinking I was promoting Spike hate, I want to be clear that my intention was to point out what an ugly and disgusting omission it was. Fluttershy does not have five friends, she has six. And no eulogy? No thank-you.

Well done. This was a very enjoyable fic. Sad, yet solid. Applause is given.

It would have also detracted from the legends they became.

Oh my god, I can barely see to type. That was an amazing story, very well written. Well done.:fluttercry: So sad.

I struggled to write this without tearing up.

>>Still Wearing Black : I honestly missed this :twilightoops: Did not mean to imply Fluttershy didn't care. I like Spike, and Fluttershy did care, but this story was kind of centred on the Elements. :moustache:

>>Phantom Wolf: I did think about the Crusaders taking over as three of the Elements, but that would have needed a backstory as to how they fit their elements:scootangel:
And as Zytharros said, it would detract from the legendary...ness of the original six.

It was a great read, and very well written. A very good tragedy story.

You should make a sequel, because these main six weren't actually the first set of bearers of the elements. Just my thoughts.

A sequel about what? I thought the only other Element bearers were the princesses.

2412029 before them were some other ponies from Canterlot, Celestia had taken the element of magic but the other elements weren't her.

I'm so sad to much tears are drizzling down my face :fluttercry::fluttercry::fluttercry:

I want to drown somepony in my tears

Maybe it wasn't the best idea to read this when I was already depressed. Oh man, I need a cupcake.

this was awseome!!!! amazing detail!

whoa whoa whoa whoa WHOA!!! :pinkiegasp:
der dropin like flies here! :twilightoops:

I cried so hard:fluttercry::fluttercry::fluttercry::fluttercry::raritycry::raritycry::raritycry::raritycry:... but this was amazing

i have been looking for this story for so freaking long cause it made my mentor cry when she read it and she hardly ever cries

An interesting story, but I have to admit I can't imagine the Elements being that... well, dickish to be blunt.

Still, thanks for writing it. It was an interesting if dark take on the whole: 'Twilight will not outlive her friends' thing.

I hope you know this was a heck of a long time ago and only the second story I ever wrote. It wasn't even based on the Twilight immortality thing because it was written way before Twilicorn... also in answer to your first point, yes, I know.:rainbowwild:

Fair enough. I'm going through my bloated 'read later' list, so I missed that context.

Good on you for being ahead of the curve in that case. :twilightsmile:

I just wanted to ask something. Because I am new here I do not know how to start writing a story so if some pony could reply to let me know, that would be great. By the way, great story. I like how you made it so that the letter was in a different font. Good job.

Good job on this chapter.:fluttercry::pinkiehappy:

I am speachless and I feel like scolding twilights grave. Didn't she learn never to leave a flame unattended.:flutterrage:
