//------------------------------// // The Decision // Story: Nopony wants to let go // by Moonlight Flight //------------------------------// Chapter 6: The decision The decision was mine, and of course it is going to be the hardest decision I would ever make. Looking around the room I noticed everypony was looking at me. Their eyes burning into my soul, each one held empty expressions. "What?" I asked. Everyone except Scootaloo averted their eyes. "Fluttershy she asked for you to let her go." Scootaloo said. I looked at Rainbow Dash one last time before I flipped the machines off. I watched as life left her eyes, her stomach descended as she exhaled. Her last breath was taken , and now she lay there not moving. Everypony had tears in their eyes, everyone except me. It seemed that I had cried all that I could already, and now I was out of tears. I just stood there looking at Rainbows body, memories began to fill my mind once more. I watched as everypony walked out of her room, and I shortly followed looking back one last time time to look at my best friend. Turning around, the tears finally came once more. As I walked down the halls towards the exit I heard several ponies say stuff. "It's all her fault." one said. I opened the door to the hospital and got blinded by the light. Before continuing I let my eyes adjust but as I looked around the world dissipated. "Fluttershy." I heard, someone calling my name, but who? "Fluttershy!!" the voice said. I continued to look around but found nothing. I closed my eyes as the voice called my name once more. When I opened my eyes I was back at my cottage lying on my back on the floor. "Uhh... Fluttershy?" A voice said, it was one that I recognized. The voice of someone that I had just lost. "What are you doing on the floor? Never mind that I'm going to teach a special Pegasus to fly." the voice said. Now why did this conversation sound like I've heard it before? I looked up at the pony that was speaking. I couldn't believe it, Rainbow Dash was standing there in front of me. "Are you coming?" She asked. Was this a dream, or was this reality. I watched her die right there on the hospital bed so how could this be true. I began to wonder, then it hit me. I had just had a premonition, I have read books on these and now that I know what to change I can keep Rainbow dash alive. I smiled "Sure lets go."
