We were her army. We supported her to the very end. We devoted ourselves, and put our lives on the line because we believed in her cause. We would have died if it meant furthering her goals...

And now I am all that remains of that army, the first to swear fealty to her once she realized the truth. And now I am free once again. And I have...befriended the bearers of the Elements of Harmony. The ones who freed me of my prison.

But I have since learned something, something I will never forgive them for.

Darkness, light, it doesn't matter any more. I just want there to be silence. I want it all to disappear. I want...

The Helicoprion, a long-lived genus of shark-like cartilaginous fish that went extinct millions of years ago. This predator certainly was a strange one, seeing how its lower jaw was basically a mix of a fruit roll-up and chainsaw. I make a living studying fossils, and this guy certainly takes the cake for the number one in the weird factor. So imagine my surprise when I inexplicably turn up in Equestria of all places. As a Helicoprion. Guess it's just one of those days.

You can thank Csquared08 for the idea for this story. And I will get that seal of approval, one way or the other. Also to my kickass editor, Linkerman! Thanks for all the help, dude!

Edit: The ending of the original story by Iceman was not up when I started writing this, so now it has its own quirks that are invalidated by his ending.Fortunately, this is fan-fiction, and coming up with the wrong conclusion is better than having the solution laid out before you.
Anyway, don't correct me on that metric, it seems that things went even more post human in the fic than I had expected, but, this story has it's own direction, and fixing it to line up with the original would ruin the whole thing now.

Now Rated Teen for minor profanity

While the rest of Ponyville sleeps, Rainbow Dash asks herself a question she has been avoiding for a long time. Does her life have a meaning?

AUTHORS NOTE: This fic is relatively short, but has a deep meaning and a direct relation to my own life. Just recently, I went through a strange phase of depression, unbelonging and unimportance. However, I eventually was able to overcome this phase, and chose to leave this fic as a reminder to anyone out there who reads it. EVERYONE MATTERS! Even when you feel like you don't. Never give up on yourself or everyone else will give up you too.
