Starlight looked around the barren wasteland, utterly confused.
"But...I...Rainbow Dash performed the Sonic Rainboom. A double Rainboom. Why is the future still...this?!"
She whirled around. "Twilight? Twilight! Where are you?"
"Wait, you know about the Double Rainboom?" a raspy voice asked.
"Yes, in fact, I helped her pull it off," Starlight said proudly, turning and then let out a blood-curdling shriek.
Staring at her was a rotting pony, who looked offended. "Well, that's awfully rude," it said with a snort.
"Y-yo-you're...oh god, what happened?" Starlight whimpered.
"Well, if I remember my history, Dash performed a Double Rainboom, which the Zebras interpreted as a sign to begin invading Equestria, since to them, the stars foretold such an event and heralded the fall of the Princesses. Twenty bloody years of war that eventually ended with both the Zebras and Ponies driving each other to the edge of extinction with new ways to kill each other," the rotting pony said.
"All that...from a single event?" Starlight said hollowly.
"Oh, the next two hundred years were even worse. Changelings invaded, enslaved everything that moved to extract love and emotions from them and after that, the Crystal Empire reappeared and King Sombra waged war once again...so yes. A single event led to the death of Equestria."
"Who are you?" Starlight whispered in horror.
"I'm not surprised you didn't recognize me. Hello Starlight. My name is Rainbow Dash and you helped me kill Equestria."
