It was cold, and wet, and rainy in Stratusburg. The rain came down, but no floods came up, as the pegasi in the region were doing a weather dump over the area for a week or so. But this week was loaded with pathetic fallacy, as everypony was sad. Most had heard of Sky's actions at the wedding and his rather harsh words towards Vapor, and had acted to comfort her in a hard time. None, however, had even spoken to Sky, who was acting more and more like a mad pony every time Vapor saw him, saying something about reverse unicorns and trying to break the sound barrier, not to mention other nonsense. He lived on his own now. His parents had thrown him out of his home for his actions, and Vapor certainly felt sorry for him. But nonetheless, he wasn't speaking to her, and so she wasn't talking to him either.
She had no idea why he was so obsessed with going back. Life here was perfect, more or less an absolute paradise? Why would you want to get rid of that in favor of the grime and rubbish of the world they had come from? Whatever had happened, and whatever strange circumstances had befallen her (or Jimmy, as they previously had been and might still be were it not for CARDBOARD BOXES!), Vapor knew she didn't want to go back to that old dump called Manteo, as Stratusburg was better. Even if it was a little wet at the moment.
She currently sat in her room in her home. Sky and she had lined up a new home to live in upon getting married, but they had been forced to hold off moving in for obvious reasons, and mercifully the estate agent had understood and held the property for them. Now, here she was, in a home that was mostly packed up in anticipation of moving. Sure seemed that wasn't happening any time soon.
As she sat there, pondering what was going to happen, tears leaking from her eyes from the fact her love was not with her. Just then, she heard some movement behind her, and looked behind her in confusion. Standing there were four men. Three were holding guitars, and the last was sitting at a drumkit that most certainly hadn't been there the last time she had looked. They each wore uniforms of a military style, each a different colour. One was blue, another yellow, another pink, and another red. One also had glasses one, and they all sported fashionable moustaches.
"What on Earth are the Beatles doing in my house?" Vapor asked, confused.
"We saw you were in the dumps, and decided to cheer you up," John explained. "We know that, deep down in your heart, you still have feelings for Sky."
"That's the problem!" Vapor replied, looking out of a window in despair. "I still love him, but I'm certain he doesn't now! If the way he spoke was anything to go by."
"Vapor, that isn't true," Ringo told her.
"Exactly!" George added. "We saw him talking of and thinking of you!"
"We can read minds, being figments of your and Sky's imagination," Paul helpfully added, tweaking a string on his bass. "After all, nothing communicates between culture and people like music. So we have a special song for you."
They took positions, and a magical orchestra appeared behind them, magically fitting into her room with space to spare and not clipping through any walls. And soon they began to play and sing, as an invisible piano became visible, and Paul started to play.
"Hey Trail, don't make it bad,
Take a sad song and make it better:
Remember to let him into your heart
Then you can start to make it better.
"Hey Jude, don't be afraid,
You were made to go out and get him:
The minute you let him under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better."
"And anytime you feel the pain,
Hey Trail, refrain:
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool:
Who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.
Na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na!
"Hey Trail, don't let me down
You have found him, now go and get him
Remember to let him into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
"So let it out and let it in
Hey Trail, begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you
Hey Jude, you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder
Na-na-na, na, na
Na-na-na, na, yeah
"Hey Trail, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let him under your skin
Then you'll begin to make it better
Better better better better better, ah!"
Then they launched into the big bit that often get quoted at sports events.
"Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!
Na, na, na, na-na-na na
Na-na-na na, hey Trail!!
Once they had finished, Vapor Trail knew exactly what she had to do. She dashed out of her home, sprinting into the street and trying to turn bends in the heavy rain. When suddenly she saw Sky, approaching over wet cobblestones.
"Vapor!" he called out.
"Sky!" Vapor called back, running into him. They took each others forehooves and looked at one another.
"I am so, so, sorry," Sky said, tears streaming down his face. "I know you probably won't, but do you forgive me for what I did?"
Vapor did the only thing she could in that moment to calm him. She kissed him, passionately, and gently, and with all the conviction a couple in love could ever give. "I will never cease to love you, no matter what happens." And at that moment, the sun cleared the clouds and the weather cleared.
"That's this lot done!" called Rainbow Dash, temporarily attached to rain duty. "See you next month!"
Sky suddenly pointed with his hoof at a nearby alleyway. "See that?"
Vapor nodded. "They look like trouble."
