	As I trot, I could still hear the popping of burning wood. The screams were gone, the death might have left, but I will never forget what had happened there. I just wish I could have changed something, anything. I wish I could have saved my friends, my once loving and amazing friends. 

"Celestia! Why would this happen to me!? Celestia!!" I shouted from the top of my lungs, I wanted her to hear mt cry, my plead. I knew she could hear me, because it started to rain by itself. The rain cleaned my body, whipping away the blood that had spilled on my blue fur. I didn't want it to leave, I need something to remind me of what I had done today. I couldn't hold it in anymore, I just yelled and bucked at trees. I didn't care for the pain I caused myself, I need to let my anger out on something. I galloped towards a tree with all my speed my legs can give, I slipped. I tumbled down the hill like a rag doll and landed head up in the mud. The rain slowed down, and I just lied there as I saw the grey puffy clouds roll by. I thought of everything at that moment, I thought of Twilight, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie. 

Twilight, she helped me with anything and everything. Even though she did get on my nerves sometimes. Twilight was a friend everypony should have had, a pony everypony should have known for that matter. I wish I could bring her back, I wish she was still here by my side. It was comforting thinking of all the happy times I had with my friends, all the things we did. It brought a very faint smile to my face.

Applejack, a pony everypony could trust. She was honest, kindhearted and loving. She would always help everypony when they needed help. Even if Applejack and I were competitive, she will forever be my friend, living or dead, he name will live on. I just wish, she could have been here, telling stories and keeping us together. Twilight and Applejack...friends I wish were with me.

Rarity, the most beautiful mare I know. A friend who knew something about fashion. I never cared for it, but Rarity always tried to get on her side. I didn't like trying on most of her dresses, but I was helping a friend in need. "A friend in need." Where was I when she hung herself. I could have saved her, I could have went back and talked to her about everything I have ever done. I could have made up all of that lost time with her. I...I should have been there for her. Why can't she be here with me and...T..Twilight an...and Applejack? 

Pinkie Pie, the most out craziest pony I have ever known. Everypony loved her and her parties, no pony would ever hate Pinkie. To know that she did this, is...I can't even come to terms with it. Was it all truly our fault for making Pinkie Pie do this? Could we have helped her, could we have really helped her? I know I'm going to be asking that question for the rest of my life. Still, I wish she was here, to bring a smile to my and our other friends. Pinkie, Twilight, Applejack and Rarity, I wish I could have you all back.

Fluttershy. I don't think I will ever be able to see you. After what I did to Pinkie and Applejack, how would you ever want to see me? At least I got you out safe, but you still got hurt. I wish I could see your face, hear your soft calm voice, and just be there with you. Fluttershy, I know you can't hear me, but I want you to forgive me. Give me that much, please...just give me that much. As with you, I wish you were here. I wish you were all truly here.

I got up from the mud and saw a small pond filled with green grass and beautiful flowers. The pond looked as if I had been here before, I just couldn't figure it out. I stopped caring and went into the pond to clean my muddy and red stained fur. I cleaned myself with my hoof, trying to get rid of all the mess on me. It felt good to take somewhat of a bath, haven't taken one for about two days now. The water wasn't warm, but it felt amazing as it flowed past me with every move I made. It was relaxing, something I thought I would never feel again. Once I was fairly clean, I got out and dried. The rain had stopped and the sun was out again. The sun hit my body and it felt amazing, the warmth it gave off...wish it would've lasted for ever. 

There was something bothering me though, this tree, it didn't stand out at all, but I felt as if I knew this tree. It looked exactly like all the other trees, light brown, green leaves, branches sticking out, nothing special. As I got closer, I could see some writing on it, but I couldn't read what it said. I got closer and was now able to read what was on the tree. I was shocked to see what it was, how could I have forgotten about this. Now I know why I though I have seen this place before. This was our old swimming pool, just a little ways outside of town. Fluttershy had found it for us one day. The heart breaker about this memory, was what I had written on the tree. I thought I didn't have any tears left, guess I lied. After reading it, I lied up under the tree and said it out loud.

"No matter what may come. No matter what we face. We will always be friends. Through thin, through think, we will stand. Us six friends, bound by the elements, we fight. I Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash will always be friends. Let nothing ever come between us."

"One day. One day we will be together again. One day, we'll be friends again and when that day comes, the stars will fall. I miss you...my friends."
