(ALTERNATE ENDING) Rocket to insanity: dawn of a dying Pegasus: the broken allegiance

"I'm" The princess, caught off guard by a tean rolling down her cheek. "I know what you must think of me right now. .... And I'm sorry. I know this is hard on you. But I did what I had to do to help bring peace back to Equestria. Justice was served. I'm sure you'll understand."

Twilight started gringing her teeth, clearly infuriated.

"Im going to kill you." the Princess looked shocked. "sooner or later, I dont care what it takes, I will kill you." then, she snapped. "J-justice? .... You! You call that JUSTICE?!!"

The princess recoiled, suprised by the unicorns sudden change in attitude. Twilight continued to shout at the princess, despit her muzzle still being incredably sore.

"THAT WAS NOT JUSTICE!! .... IT WAS AN EXECUTION!! .... Do you have any ANY idea how close I was?! I saved her! My best friennd! MY ONLY FRIEND!! AND YOU KILLED HER!!"

"T-Twili-"

"She had gone through so much!! She had been beaten, destroyed and left to fend for herself! .... Rarity and Fluttershy knew what they were getting into. They. They're the bravest ponies I've ever known. And now they're dead!! AND BECAUSE OF YOU!! THEY ALL DIED IN VAIN!!"

The princess didn't say anything she stood there and watched the purple unicorn wail at her in her wheelchair. Twilight calmed down, her tears now becoming ones of sorrow and not blind anger.

"I. .... I thought you'd understand what I was doing. You're the one who told me to always look out for my friends, no matter what. But I was wrong. You never even gave her a chance to speak. .... You just. .... Killed her."

The princess paused, confused with emotions. Angry for being shouted at, greif for the loss of the five elements and sorrow for knowing she was only telling the truth.

"I. .... I know how you must feel. You was only doing what you thought was right. But nopony else would se it that way. To them you were simply harboring  a fugetive. Like it or not. That's the truth. I'm sorry for what I've done, but it was the only option."

Twilight sighed, still angry but knowing that it was the truth. The princess leaned foward.

"I know nothing I do will ever make up for what I did. But for my own peice of mind, I've issued a court order, giving you immuntiy of prosecution. It's the least I can do for what I did."

Twilight continued to look outside before looking at the ground, her eyes dripping with tears.

"Thank you. .... But like you said. .... It doesn't make up for what happened."

Twilight then turned to face the prinsess, staring into her eyes as she said the inevitable.

"And as of today, I am no longer your student, and you are no longer my mentor. I just want to be alone. .... Please leave."

"Okay. I'll go. .... Goodbye Twilight. .... It was good being your teacher."

The princess walked out of the hospital room, leaving Twilight to cry into her hooves, sobbing at her loss, as the sun began to set in the distance.

They never noticed a brown colt watching through the window...
