Derpy is scribbling in a journal she has in her hooves. She holds the pencil up and then starts to draw something. She moves from up to down and she is drawing A illustration of herself sitting on a beach chair with a table on the side of it with some muffins and a glass of water. She adds small details like the grass and lines in the chair, she smiles as she finishes the drawing. She closes her eyes and disappears from the room journal setting down onto the bed. She appears outside sitting on the beach chair that she drew and eating a muffin, She grabs the bottle and sips from it then placing it back down onto the table. Her house is behind her and the refreshing sunlight is hitting her face as she puts sunglasses on and lays back a little looking up continuing to smile. She closes her eyes and appears back on her bed, She grabs her journal and happily jumps down onto her bed laying against the pillow grabbing her pencil. She starts drawing something else now, After a couple minutes she draws herself smiling and then around herself in the drawing some water splashing up. She drew herself in a pool and sets the journal down with the pencil. She closes her eyes and doves back onto her bed and then suddenly appearing in a pool in her backyard. She laughs and rubs her eyes and swims around for a couple seconds before swimming over to the edge of the pool. She appears back in her room, dry. She grabs her journal and pencil and sits down onto the bed, She smiles as she flips over the page to a blank one but then frowns. An illustration of her holding multiple drug pills in her hoof is already on the page. Derpy slowly sets the journal down frowning and closing her eyes as she appears in a corner of a room holding the pills and the empty bottle in both her hooves. She looks up almost crying and looking around the room and then back onto the pills. She exhales and puts the pills back into the bottle relaxing herself and setting the pills onto the floor. She appears back on her bed looking at the drawing in her journal of it. She lays down onto the bed very upset and sad looking at the wall away from the journal. She brushes her other hoof slowly and then turns her head to look over at the journal sitting on the bed. She grabs her pencil and flips the page over. She grabs her journal and lays on her side looking at the blank page. She smiles and starts to draw again. She draws herself listening to peaceful music over from the other house next door. She looks out the window and onto some sunshine flowers down below and smiles again before closing the window and drawing something again in her journal. She draws herself sleeping on her couch with a blanket over herself having pleasant dreams. She smiles in her sleep and dreams about it. She finishes the drawing and wakes up and lays down onto the bed and resting up against the pillow fixing it up, she grabs her journal and pencil from the nightstand. She draws herself eating breakfast in the kitchen smiling as she takes a bite out of it then fixing her pillow up back in bed, She positions herself upright as she is turning the page over to a new blank one. She exhales and her smile fades quickly again. She covers her mouth and tears up, The drawing is her about to jump out the window onto the ground below. She looks over to the window in her room wide open. She stands on the edge of the window and pulls herself up and stands right up looking down below. The drop looks further than every time she used to look out the second floor window. Her mind starts to go blank and her body goes numb, She sits down dangling her hind-legs over the edge. She looks from the sky to the trees that seem less colored. She looks around slowly forgetting colors. She looks down again and exhales loudly and almost coughs as she slowly pulls herself out and back into her room. She lets herself cry for a moment before closing the window shut and locking it. "No.." She whispers She turns back and the world outside turns back to Normal as the colors seem to come back, Derpy looks at her journal and pencil. She walks over to the lights in her room and turns them on, She exhales again relaxing and calming herself down. She rubs her forehead and ruffles her mane rubbing her eyes and sweating slightly. She lets down one last tear down her cheek and takes a deep breath before looking at her bed again. She sits onto her bed grabbing her journal and looking at it. She flips her page over and sees theres no more pages, it's the end of the journal. She looks up and straight at the wall. She wipes her mouth with her hooves and looks over at the window for a second. She lays down into her bed resting her head on her pillow breathing heavily but soon recoils herself normally and looks at the journal sitting on the edge of the bed. She blinks and looks over at the pencil. She grabs it and looks at it closely, She gets up and sits upright in her bed. She walks over to her closet and opens it and pulls out another journal. She smiles looking the new one and looks over back at her bed and then closes the closet doors. She grabs the old journal and sets it down on her table and grabs her new one and places it on the bed. She sits down and grabs her pencil and lifts it into the air staring at it. She pulls the pencil down and begins to draw. ...The End...
