An Alternate Universe where Discord is defeated... at the cost of Twilight Sparkle's life. What if the Last 5 Elements decide to split away for good, leaving each other to live their own lives? And what if the disappearance of a certain Pink Pony leads to the answer of a few Gruesome murders?
We look from the perspective of Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy as they venture through Equestria, having no place to permanently call home, and only each other to call 'Friend'... but what if.... they became something more along the way?
And what if... the missing Party Pony finds a new kind of party... involving a Dance with Death?

Will add tags for characters as they appear.
