Voyager

Psi

Somehow, they found themselves in Zecora's hut. Zecora wasn't there.

Luna's hooves where both covered with ashes. She threw them in the empty cauldron.

"What are you doing?" Twilight asked. "Zecora may get angry!"

Luna paid her no attention and poured water in the cauldron.

"Leave her alone", Rarity said. "I don't understand her anymore. She has gone insane."

Luna glared at her while turning on the fire.

"How do we help her, Rarity?", Twilight asked. "She is our friend, right?"

"She was, dear." The dreadful voice rang. "I don't care about her anymore."

The fire creaked and the water started boiling. Twilight peeked at the brew, but it didn't look like water. It was a pitch black abyss.

"Luna, stop!", Twilight pleaded.

Luna ignored her again, and turned her attention to Rarity. "It's over. Don't make me hurt you. Just jump into the cauldron."

Rarity chuckled. "Is this a kind of game?"

"Yes!" Luna answered. "You jump into the cauldron and we all can finally leave! It's a funny game, isn't it?"

"She can't jump there!", Twilight cried. "She will die if she does."

"She won't", the alicorn answered. This won't harm our dear friend Rarity."

It rang. Rarity's mane swirled, her pupils disappeared and she winced in pain, this time more passively. The hut melted, but the cauldron and the fire remained where they were.

"Don't do this to her", Twilight cried. "Please, she is my friend! You are my friend! Don't kill her!"

"Shut up! I said she won't die and she won't die", Luna turned to Rarity. "Now, dear friend, jump into the cauldron."

It backfired. Rarity threw her whole body against Luna in a rampage. "Fiend! No one wants you here! Leave already!" Both ponies started fighting in the ground, rolling in a ball.

Twilight had to help her friend. She tried to approach the ball, but the ball collided with her, sending her right into the cauldron.

She lost conciousness.
