Summary: Her family has fallen into Death's mercy. Her mother got a glass piercing in her heart and bled to death. Her father's skull was crushed on impact from falling luggage. Her sister had inhaled too much smoke from the exploding boiler. They all died right infront of her, leaving scared and alone. "Applejack?" a yellow filly asked as she laid down her head. "Yeah, Sugarcube?" an orange mare replied. "Is Sweetie Belle really gonna be home tomorrow?" the younger inquired. "Yep, her and her folks are on the train back to Ponyville as we speak." the elder sister confirmed. Sweetie Belle and her family had been gone on a summer trip to Manehattan for three weeks and it felt like an eternity to Apple Bloom since she had see her white unicorn friend. Meanwhile, on the returning train from Manehattan, Sweetie Belle was preparing to fall asleep. "Rarity, I'm really glad we're going home. I liked Manehattan but there really is no place like home." Sweetie Belle said as she tried to fall asleep. "Me too, Sweetie, me too." Rarity said as she levitated a blanket over her sister. Suddenly the lights on the train went out. Sweetie Belle thought at first, this meant lights out, but idealization faded just as quickly as it had come. A moment later a earth shattering boom shaked the train car. Rarity quickly pulled her sister under her, protecting her sister from the shattering windows. The last thing Sweetie Belle heard before loosing consciousness was the most terrifying, blood curdling scream. Her own. Ring! Ring! The telephone at Sweet Apple Acres rang a few hours later. "Who'd be tryin' to call us at one in the morning?" AJ thought quietly to herself as she went to pick up the phone. "Hello" she greeted whoever was on the other end. "Hello, Applejack. This is nurse Red Heart from Ponyville Urgent Care." the nurse pony greeted. "Why are you callin' here at one in the morning?" AJ sounded irritated. "There's been an accident on the train coming in from Manehattan." the nurse explained. Before the medical pony could say another word, AJ was off like bullet towards the hospital, leaving the phone dangling. The pony on the other end, confused about what just happened, tried again. This time, Big Mac picked it up. "Eyeup" he gave his usual greeting. The nurse then explained to the eldest of the apple siblings who listened intently. "Hold on to me, love You know I can't stay long All I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid, oh" -Evanescence, "My Last Breath"
