Rainbow Dash tackled Fluttershy who let out an eep as she fell. The two of them rolled laughing together in the grass. Exchanging a kiss now and again.

It had been two years, two years since there dear friend Twilight Sparkle abandoned them for the life of a princess. She never sent letters or came to visit. Her library had closed, nopony had touched it since she left, except for the occasional royal guard coming to collect some books for, the princess. Around that time, Fluttershy had confessed her feeling for Rainbow Dash, who did the same to Fluttershy. They were living like this till now.

“C'mon, please.”

Rainbow Dash had asked her marefriend, Fluttershy, to fly to Cloadsdale with her.

“C'mon, you do want to meet my parents, don't you?”

“Yes, but its just, I'm not exactly the best flier.”

“That's fine, I'll carry you if I have to.”

“Oh, I guess I'll go...”

The two flew east, in the direction of Cloudsdale. Ten minutes later, they arived.

“You ready to meat my parents? Hmmm sexy?”

“R-rainbow, now's not the best, time.”

“Ok, I'll stop. Just look at me, ok?”

Fluttershy looked. As she did, Rainbow dashed foreword; kissing Fluttershy who had no choice but to accept the embrace, and kissed her back. Meanwhile, a dark blue pegasus peaked his head out of a door. One of Rainbow's eyes opened, she broke the kiss and turned to stare at the blue pegasus. Fluttershy cowered behind her marefriend.

“Really dad?”

“Heh heh, come on in you two.”

That night Fluttershy got to know more of her friend's past. Dinner was divine. Freshly picked fruits and vegetables covered with pure, creamy white icing. With daisy and daffodil sandwitches.

“Thanks for...dinner.” Fluttershy spoke softly, “It was...nice.”

“Any time sweetie!”

It had began to rain by the time they left. They flew towards Ponyvil, lightning streaked around them.

Fluttershy called out, “Rainbow...Rainbow” Her attempts to draw the attention of her friend were in vain, however. Just them, a burst of light almost blinded Fluttershy. The next thing she saw brought chills to her bone. Rainbow Dash plummeted to the earth, wings at her sides, eyes closed, mouth agape. Fluttershy chased after her, but it was no use. Rainbow hit the ground hard, leaving a small crater in her wake. Fluttershy fell to her knees, cradling her lover in her arms.

Rainbow's eyes opened slightly. “F-fluttershy? Wh-what happened?” She tried to move but found that she could not.

Fluttershy hugged her dieing friend, sobbing into her solder.

“Fluttershy...” Rainbow Dash spoke weakly, “I...I love...you...” She kissed her quickly them collapsed into Fluttershy.

“no..Dashie no...” Fluttershy sobbed holding the now lifeless Rainbow Dash. “Rainbow please...don't leave me.”

She sat there for hours. When officials came to take Rainbow Dash away, she nearly fought them.

Fluttershy thought to herself, “I've just lost the only happiness I have left. Not even Pinkie in as cheery any more.” With that she ran home.

Nopony has seen her since. There is just the sign on her door, it reads, “Do not disturb, ALONE”
