Chapter 1

"Rainbow!" Twilight Sparkle screamed as her rainbow-maned pegasus friend was crushed by a huge bolder.

It has been one month since the accident. Twilight had visited her friend in the Hospital, to find that her friend's heart had stopped with a few slow beats. Twilight and her other friends had to carry on, but whenever they saw a bright rainbow in the sky, a rainbow painting in a shop window or anything else that included a rainbow reminded the girls of their best friend. Twilight seemed to grief the most, for a very special, secret reason. She had a crush on Rainbow. It was a bit of a big one, that rainbow-maned pegasus brought so many colorful wonders to Equestria. Twilight would always remember her friend, and that was a pinkie promise.

Twilight sat at the edge of her bed, tears flowing down her cheeks.

"Rainbow, why did you have to go? You were such a important Element, a special one," Twilight whispered, not caring that she might of offended the other Elements of Harmony.

Spike found out that about Twilight's love for Dashie but he wouldn't tell anypony about it, ever. Twilight was glad for this but she was still depressed and felt empty. She wouldn't eat, drink or even bother to step hoof outside for shopping and to chat with her friends. The girls were very worried about Twilight's health so they kept visiting her to make sure she was OK. Twilight noticed this and didn't want to be bothered, not even by her friends, so she set out a force field around her tree house, just like when Gabby Gums was being a bit too gabby. Twilight decided to stay in Ponyville for now, she couldn't be bothered to move out even though it would probably make forgetting the accident a whole lot easier.

Princess Celestia had heard about the accident too and she was as almost as depressed as Twilight was, since that a actual Element had moved on in the clouds. But nopony could ever be as upset as Twilight was, nopony. Princess Celestia kept sending letters to Twilight but Twilight was feeling so down that she hadn't even read the five new recent letters that had been sent. Spike kept trying to persuade Twilight to start eating and maybe have a quick peek at the letters but Twilight just stayed in bed.

Twilight rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed as a letter was suddenly thrust in her face. Twilight was about to object when she she noticed the words on the letter, they were in big capital letters.

"I sent a letter to the Princess, saying that she should write in capital so you would see the writing before objecting it," Spike explained, still holding the letter in front of the alicorn's face. The words read:

Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle,

You have been very depressed about the big accident so I suggest that it's time that you move out of Ponyville, to clear your mind. I know you don't want to leave but it's for the best. If you decide to reject arriving at my castle then that is fine. I just want the best for you.

Sincerely,

Princess Celestia

Twilight glanced at the letter one more time before levitating it to the littered floor of other unread letters. Spike frowned.

"Aw, come on Twilight! At least write back!" But Twilight laid back on her bed, pulling the covers over herself.

"I just can't anymore Spike, I just can't." And she fell back to sleep, lost of faith.
