Day what the hell ever in Equestria. Fall in love with Rainbow Dash. You get married. You've never been happier.

She's still trying out for the Wonderbolts, trying riskier and riskier stunts. After crashing a few too many times, she develops chronic traumatic encephalopathy. After a while it develops into full-blown dementia. You agree to take care of her, but you don't know what you were getting into. The Rainbow Dash you love is gone.

She just sits in bed, mumbling incoherently and soiling herself. You have to feed her, bathe her, and constantly clean up after her. Seeing her in that condition is too much for you to take. Going into her room, you can smell she soiled herself again. As tears stream down your face, you pull the pillow out from under her head. You lean down and kiss her one last time.

"I love you."

Her eyes go wide as you press the pillow into her face. She begins to struggle, but you hold tight.

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" You cry as she struggles to breathe. You think you hear her call your name, but you know her mind too far gone to remember you. Finally, she goes still. You remove the pillow from her face. She had been crying. You hold her body until it's cold, sobbing the entire time.

Today was a bad day.

Author's Note

After the last one, I was told I shouldn't mix "funny" with "sad" and I should "fix" it. Well, I assume they meant remove the smothering bit from the last story, but instead, I decided to play it straight in a new story.

They weren't happy, and in fact, ended up writing their own ending to this story where Discord pulls some deus ex machina and recovers Rainbow Dash's mind, and everyone lives happily ever after.
