If anyone has a better title story to it, please do inform me! :)
Rainbow Dash was surrounded by her friends and family, who were now infected by the cookies Rainbow Dash pranked for.
Rainbow Dash was really disappointed, and very heartbroken for what she did. She can only hear her friends saying a few lines, signing for need:
"Cooooookies..."
"N-No! Guys, please! I'm sorry! It's my fault for making this.. chaos! It was just a harmless prank! Please!" Rainbow begged her friends, not to hurt her, but they refused.
Suddenly, a inner voice muttered in her mind:
"Rainbow Dash, see the current nature going on, see your friends! See your family! And see yourself.. It is because, of one of your pranks you did. But, there's only one way.. become like them, and live your life with them in heaven, and most importantly.. never forget their friendship.."
After the voice, she sees a white atmosphere, showing her friends and her sister, Scootaloo. Rainbow Dash sees them and gets surprised.
"G-guys-" Rainbow Dash said before they fade away.
They slowly fade away, making Rainbow Dash step her knees on the ground. And, she trickles a tear, which lands on her cheek.
She gets back, where the zombies are still tracking her. Rainbow Dash tries to remember that her friends sang a song together, meaning that they will never break their friendship for life. When the zombies come closer, she picks the cookies and says:
"I-I'm sorry..."
She tears and eats the whole box, this makes the ponies stop walking and get surprised. After that, she sings the song they sang together:
Suddenly that isn't true There's another avenue Beckoning, the great divide I would choose The same joy the same sadness each step of the way That fought me and taught me that friends never say Never say goodbye Never say goodbye Never say goodbye Never say goodbye
She teared and cried. Her friends remember that day they sung, and Rainbow Dash waited for her final breath.
"Come on, let me die! I want to die in peace, and live my life with my family! PLEASE KILL ME!" Rainbow Dash cried with tears.
This made her friends cry, it made them feel that the prank they did was so hurtful that she wanted to kill herself for them. They finally, removed the rainbow frosting from their mouths with their hooves, and the princess went towards Rainbow Dash to calm her down.
"R-Rainbow Dash.." Twilight said those first words.
Rainbow Dash looked up, she sees Twilight along with her friends and family.
"T-Twilight? I-I'm dead?" Rainbow Dash said.
"No, you are not, Rainbow.."
"N-NO! I can see you all! Yes! Finally I'm in heaven! Woohoo! It's pretty good to be with you again.." She said with tears.
Her friends were shedding tears. She can't believe she was even ready for everything to see her friends. That's why she was called by Element of Loyalty.
"No, Rainbow darling.. you are not in heaven!" Rarity said with tears.
"W-what? What do you mean?" Rainbow said confusingly.
"I-It was just a prank, sugarcube.." Applejack said with tears, and takes off her hat.
"A.. A prank?"
"Yes, Rainbow! It was a prank to teach you a lesson!" Pinkie Pie said tearfully.
Rainbow went blank. She didn't answer anything. To barge the situation somewhere else, she decided to move.
"Uh, g-guys? I-I'm going home.." Rainbow Dash walks away from the crowd, leaving the girls.
When Rainbow walks away from the barn, she sheds tears and feels betrayed from her friends, and flies away.
5-minutes later, the ponies were sitting in the barn, having worried faces on them, and her friends were seen, crying. Applejack breaks the silence first by throwing her hat hardly.
"This is all because of your so-called prank!" Applejack said.
"But, Applejack! It was just to teach Rainbow-" Fluttershy said before Applejack could break her lines.
"WE DIDN'T TEACH HER A LESSON, UNLESS MAKING HER IN DEPRESSION!" Applejack screamed her throat off, causing complete silence in the barn.
Applejack sighs.
"Look, gals. You just made a prank to teach Rainbow a lesson, right?" Applejack said in passive.
Everyone nods.
"And suddenly, this prank kinda.. broke her heart, right?"
Everyone nods again.
"So! That means, your prank didn't show any value or lesson, at all!"
"W-what? Applejack, this prank was about to show a value to Rainbow Dash that-" Twilight said before Applejack could break her lines.
"-if she hurts somebody, you will do the exact same thing she did, this time make the prank more horrific to teach her a single value, right?"
Twilight gets a dead beat. She didn't answer anything, neither she had so, she sat sown on the ground carefully.
"What you guys want from her actually, huh? That she pranked you so you will do the same, as well?"
"Yeah! She embarrassed us in front of all!" A pony answers.
Everyone started to make a mumbling group, stating that everyone has problems with her. After that, Applejack calms down the ponies.
"Okay, okay, calm down everypony! But, listen.. Rainbow Dash just wanted to have a good time, and if her pranks were hurtful, why wouldn't you push her off to stop it? Or else, she would be left crying out of nowhere!" Applejack said.
"Your right, Applejack." Twilight walks away from the crowd and starts speeching. "This tells that, our prank was not just to teach her a lesson, but to show such sadness among her feelings. The pranks she did earlier, will be forgiven. And we all will try to make Rainbow apologize us all." Twilight said.
"B-but how are we ever gonna find her? We don't even know where she is going..." Rarity said.
"Rarity! You don't know? She was going home!"
"O-oh.. Didn't minded for that, either.."
"We are so stupid.. this prank made our friend to cry.." Pinkie said by banging her head by her hooves.
"Your not, we had only a bad idea, not a bad mind to do it.."
"Twilight's right. We should go to the cloud mansion to find her!" Fluttershy said.
"B-but what if she goes somewhere else? Like, suiciding?!" Pinkie said in fear.
"PINKIE! WHAT ARE TALKING ABOUT?! SAY POSITIVE!" Applejack screamed.
"O-oh.. But, I'm really afraid.."
"Don't worry, Pinkie. Rainbow Dash won't be too desperate until she reaches home." Twilight commanded.
"Yeah! We should do something to make Rainbow apologize us!" Fluttershy said.
"B-but, one question... would Rainbow Dash, apologize us?" Rarity said my dropping her ears.
There was a few second silence. Then, Twilight broke it and went towards Rarity and calms her down.
"Don't worry, Rarity.. we will apologize for the crime we did to her, and she's our friend so, we will fight with friendship!" Twilight said.
"Yeah!" Everypony screamed.
"Let's go!"
Everypony ran out from the barn, finding Rainbow. When they reached her mansion, Twilight looked back at her friends, then knocked the door and said:
"R-Rainbow Dash?"
Would Rainbow open the door, or she's not at home at all?
Twilight knocked on the door once, so Rainbow could remind herself to open the door, but this didn't happen. No one opened the door, there was complete silence, stating that no one was there.
Her friends started to worry, thinking which new problem came. Fluttershy broke the silence.
"G-guys? I-I think she may not be home.." Fluttershy said.
"W-what? How you say that, Flutters? She would be! I think she may be crying and not in the mood to open the door, somehow.." Pinkie replied.
"She would only open the door, unless we didn't do wrong to her, like that..." Applejack said sadly.
"I know, girls.. whereever she would be, I just hope she would be safe. She wouldn't su-" Twilight said before Pinkie broke her lines.
"SUICIDE?!" Pinkie screamed.
Everyone created silence once more, making Pinkie look west to east, deflating her mane along.
"Pinkie! I said.. DON'T SAY LIKE THAT!" Rarity cried.
"I-I'm really afraid.. we just hope she won't do anything wrong as a tragedy..."
"Girls, keep confidence! If you kept being afraid she would never open the door! If you just-" Twilight said before her lines broke.
The door slowly opened. This makes the girls uncomfortable, wondering how it opened itself.
"W-wait.. the door.. opened itself?" Fluttershy said in surprise.
"No.. it must be her.." Twilight replied.
"What if it's someone else?" Applejack said.
"No.. i'm sure she would be the one.."
They went inside the house, looking rhe place very dark, stating that she didn't turn the light on before she came in and now, so Twilight used somlight from her horn to see everything clearly. But, Twilight saw but didn't notice her as a dark figure walking inside her room.
Without wasting a second, she cried:
"R-Rainbow Dash!"
The figure stopped from the princess's voice. She couldn't do anything but to turn around them, to hear the princess's lecture.
"Rainbow Dash! I'm so sorry! I really didn't wanted this to happen but-" Twilight said before her lines broke when the figure putted her hoof on her mouth, coming closer, as revealed it was Rainbow Dash who made her stop saying.
"R-Rainbow Dash?" Applejack said questioningly.
Rainbow sighs, and says:
"Can't you see me? Or I'm just kinda disappeared, but you can't remember me?" Rainbow replied.
"N-no.." Twilight removed her hoof from her mouth. "Rainbow, we can see you, hear you, but we can't see your feelings and that's our mistake!" Twilight shook her head.
"We're so sorry, Rainbow.. we didn't knew how our prank could hurt you as well.." Fluttershy said.
"This prank also teaches us a lesson, this prank was the whole cause for all of us to get a lesson.." Pinkie said in tears.
"Even you made pranks that hurt us, we did the same as well which we shouldn't had done earlier.." Applejack said by removing her hat.
"We're so sorry, Rainbow.." Rarity said sadly.
"Look guys, it's not your fault.." Rainbow said the truth.
"W-what? But, Rainbow! We did that prank which we shouldn't do that to you, but we were so angry that we wanted to make that prank! And we couldn't even understand your feelings that this would ever happen if we did this!" Twilight said in tears.
Rainbow wiped her tears, making Twilight move her head up to her.
"It's not your fault guys.. I was the one who made pranks that hurted other ponies from their feelings, and you are saying that you all hurted my feelings as well?" Rainbow replied.
Twilight nodded.
"But, Twilight. That prank was a lesson that teaches me as well, that my pranks led to you for revenge over me by making a zombie prank. That prank did hurt my feelings, but that prank did teach me!" Rainbow said.
"H-how?" Applejack said confusingly.
"Because, pranks are only made when we want to have a good time, but not on those times when people have a bad mood. That causes to hurt people's feelings. But, although! Pranks also make a person happy, when we try to make him in a good mood! But, since my pranks weren't making people laugh, except for hurting their feelings, that did made me disappointed as well! That prank showed me that, this is all happening because of my hurtful pranks I did to you all. So, I started to make a harmless prank, by making cookies which I told that they were infected, whereas they were not, and you pretended that those cookies had a zombie virus, so you acted like zombies.. this is what a pony does the most.." Rainbow said, making her friends surprised.
"R-Rainbow? T-That means, your not angry at us?" Applejack said in shock.
"Yes, guys. I'm not angry at you, neither upset.. Promise." Rainbow said happily with a grin.
Pinkie's mane came back, and she started to become more happy.
"YAY! WE GOT OUT FRIEND BACK!" Pinkie screamed and hugged Rainbow.
"Haha! Thanks, Pinkie." Rainbow said happily.
"Rainbow, we're so surprised.. you weren't even upset at all, and you did overcome your problem and apologized us! This is what a true friend I needed.." Twilight said in tears.
Rainbow wiped her tears.
"Twilight, sometimes ponies end up making mistakes, but the most important thing is to first overcome the problem, solve it, and then discuss it to the world."
"I-I've never seen such wisdom in you.. who taught you all this?!" Twilight said surprisingly.
"Only three ponies- Mom, Dad and my primary teacher..."
"Oh, Rainbow.."
Twilight hugged her tightly, causing Rainbow to cry as well.
"There, there princess! We don't wan't our librarian to cry in front of everypony..." Rainbow said.
"Who's even behind us?" Twilight said confusingly.
"Um, our friends?" Rainbow said with a giggle.
Twilight looked at her friends, smiling with tears. Twilight returned and said:
"O-oh.. didn't minded for that.. sorry.."
"It's okay, Twilight!" Rainbow pats her on her back. "What did I say you actually forgot, or didn't put it in your mind?"
"NO! Why would you say that?!" Twilight said.
"Haha! Just kidding.." Rainbow replied.
"Oh.."
Everyone laughed. This states that Rainbow apologized to everyone!
But, it's not the end. Would she calm the ponies who don't actually know that she apologized them, as well?
Everyone made worried noises, as they were sad for what they did to Rainbow Dash, either they blamed her a lot because of her pranks. Scootaloo was seen crying with Sweetie Belle and Applebloom, calming her as for blaming herself for what she did to her big sister as well.
Then, Scootaloo says herself terrible for what she did to her big sister.
"W-we're terrible! We blamed her with no reason!" Scootaloo cried in tears.
"N-no! I-It's not your fault, Scootaloo, we also hold that fault in our hands. We were in part of that prank as well.." Applebloom calmed Scootaloo.
"Applebloom's right, Scootaloo.. your sister would never stop loving you! She knows without her she's nothing, either you.." The unicorn filly said.
"NO! I shouldn't deserve to be forgiven! I am a monster, a zombie! A true zombie, who made her sister hurt!" Scootaloo confessed.
"NO! SCOOTALOO, I SAID NO!" Sweetie Belle screamed.
Scootaloo stopped weeping due to that high-voice. Sweetie Belle couldn't do anything but just a sigh and explaining her.
"Scootaloo, I know that the prank did hurt her feelings but, we don't know what she'll decide. She will not break your love chain but, she can either forget her friends, either going into depression. But, we are NOT a fan of these options, and these options may not come true, or it will! But, Scootaloo.. listen.. if you trust yourself that anything wouldn't be wrong, than just wait until the future shows!" Sweetie Belle explained.
Scootaloo wiped her tears.
"A-Are you sure anything wouldn't be wrong?" Scootaloo questioned.
Sweetie Belle putted her hoof on Scootaloo's shoulder.
"Promise.." Sweetie smiled.
Suddenly, a pony saw the girls flying down, this makes the pony scream to make them alert.
"Everypony! Look, it's the princess!" The pony screamed.
This drew attention towards the sky, where the princess was seen, flying down and landing fluently. She walks in the light, which causes the ponies to mumble for what happened.
"What happened, Princess? Did she forgive you?" A pony cried.
"Did she killed herself?" Another pony cried.
"Did he broke my and your love?!" Scootaloo cried in fear.
Twilight stayed silent. She didn't say anything but, to make a blank impression.
Twilight moved her head back, nodding and then turning back to the crowd. Rainbow Dash went through the light, which caused Scootaloo to cry and hugging her.
"RAINBOW DASH, I'M SO SORRY! SO SO SORRY! I'M A HORRIBLE PERSON!" Scootaloo said in tears.
"N-no, Squirt! It's not your fault." Rainbow Dash replied.
"But, it's my fault.. I was also the part of the prank and hurted your feelings..."
"Look, Squirt. In life, when you make a mistake, never blame yourself for making that, because this is how life goes! Mistakes go everytime and anytime, which teach us a life lesson that makes us remember till we die..."
"B-but, I thought you will never love me.."
"I DO love you, Scootaloo! Without you, I'm nothing.."
The sisters have a familiar hug. Then, Twilight walks from the crowd and says:
"We're sorry that we made that prank, we didn't know that prank would hurt your feelings! B-but.. we didn't care about that.." Twilight shook her head in disappointment, while Rainbow puts her head up by her hoof.
"Look, Twilight.. I have taught many things from you.. that, what is actually friendship! And that's the only thing I like. First of all, I didn't had so many friends, but when I met you, I saw you like, you were random here. But, I treated you as a friend and it's what's happening currently! If you were not there, I would not make such awesome friends I've met in my entire life. If, I want to be honest, I am not angry at you guys at all, as I really learnt a lesson from you all. That my pranks were hurtful! But, you made my understood how this would end if I ever did this, and that's my only lesson.." Rainbow replied.
"O-oh.. Rainbow.." Twilight said in tears.
They both hugged each other, making verify that the friendship problem's solved. This also makes her friends and others to cry to see such true friendship into them. Slowly the camera pans to sky, making stars twinkle and fading to black.
Suddenly that isn't true
