Button and Canoe entered Sugar Cube Corner.
“Hi Button” said Pinky “two ice cream sodas on the way”
“Thanks Pinky”
“Ain’t it great Canoe, we figure out something that the great & powerful princess Twilight Sparkle didn’t figure out.”
“Too many negative in that”
“Huh?”
“And bad grammar”
“Here you go colts, 2 super luscious icy creamy soda-rifics ice cream floats with sprinkles”
“Race you to the bottom, Canoe”
“No way, don’t you remember what happen when you raced your filly friend to the bottom?”
“Sweety Belle isn’t my filly friend”
“Then why is your face red?”
“The cold soda turned my cheeks red. Oh, and like your don’t have the biggest crush this side of Equestria on Silver Spoon”
“It isn’t a crush, my feelings for Silver are true and noble, plus unlike you I can admit them, if she would only listen”
“Ha, ha, true and noble, you like her flank”
“Yeah, well, that too”
“So colts” said Pinky “will you be having another round? It is kind of like a rotunda, I learn that word in the Crystal Empire”
“Sure, extra chocolate this time. I got a sad story to tell my buddy Button”
“It isn’t about C&D”
“C&D?”
“Crush & Destroy”
“Worse, the tree of Harmony gave its fruit to Twilight because she thought her worthy to take her seed and care for it. I think the tree knows it is dying and wants Twilight to raise the tree’s child for her, because she will be gone soon”
“So?”
“The tree of harmony is dying”
“And that means what, Canoe?”
“I’m not sure. Button, it could mean the mountains run into the seas, the seas boil, and the clouds catch fire”
“Or?”
“End of story, period, the end, fin, no bits left, lost teeth, out of carrots, rotten apples, out of bucks, Twilight has a spell that fixes everything, Rarity commits a faux pas, Fluttershy becomes a carnivore, Pinky Pie is a diabetic, Applejack tells a lie, Rainbow Dash loses her cool”
“Stop, I don’t want to think about it. It is too terrible to imagine”
