Ghastly Gorge

It was early morning celestia was just starting to raise the sun. Only one pony was awake it was the joyful party pony, Pinkie Pie but her mane was flat as if it were a popped balloon. She just finished sealing an envelope labeled 'Goodbye' and she left without a word.
After the sun rose Rainbow Dash headed to Sugar Cube Corner to see if Pinkie Pie was up. "Hey Mrs. Cake is Pinkie Pie here?" Asked Rainbow Dash.

"Well I think she’s here I haven't heard her leave, come to think of it I haven't heard her at all" Mrs. Cake said to Rainbow Dash "Well since your here can you go up there and check on her?"

"Sure thing" and with that Rainbow Dashed up the stairs (no pun intended). Rainbow opened Pinkie's door and yelled "Hey Pinkie you ready to go...' but she trailed off when she saw that Pinkie wasn't there. Rainbow noticed the envelope Pinkie's bed "Hey what's this" Dash said thinking out loud she opened the envelope and read it.
I have left and I’m not coming back I’m sorry especially to you Rainbow Dash that I cancelled our plans again for pulling pranks on Ponyville I’m heading out to Ghastly Gorge and I’m going to jump so I will no longer have to fake a smile don’t feel bad girls even if you had known I was sad you couldn’t have helped. I’ve lost friends each party I throw is to bury the sadness so at noon it will be goodbye cruel world friends and all

Your friend,

Pinkie Pie

"Oh no" Dash muttered as she looked out the window "No time to tell the others Noon's in a few minutes"

With that she was gone racing to Ghastly Gorge where the competitor was time and Rainbow Dash was losing. Just the gorge was in Dash's sight the sun reached its peak and Pinkie was about to jump so Rainbow Dash dived straight for the ground.

Sitting at the edge of Ghastly Gorge sat Pinkie Pie looking up at the sky and when the sun reached its peak she slid off the edge of the gorge to the rocks below and as she fell Pinkie saw a Rainbow charging straight down and said "Goodbye Rainbow Dash" and then she saw the sonic rainboom that which filled her with joy so long ago brought only deep sadness now.

Rainbow could now see Pinkie Pie and knew that she couldn’t save her but she didn’t stop she kept going if anything she would make sure that Pinkie knew someone cared about her. Rainbow Dash came so close but she wasn’t quick enough to save Pinkie Pie. Rainbow landed a few feet from where Pinkie hit the ground and walked over to Pinkie's lifeless body and knelt down crying and asked "Why did you do it Pinkie? Why?"

That night was the Funeral everyone but Rainbow Dash was there. After the funeral Fluttershy went to Rainbows cloud home "umm...rainbow dash are you here?" She said in a quiet voice

"Yes I'm here Fluttershy what is it?" Rainbow dash responded

"Well...umm...it’s just that me and the others wanted to know why you weren't at pinkie pie's funeral" fluttershy told her

"I couldn't handle seeing one my best friends put six feet under, Fluttershy whenever I’m ready for the goodbye I’ll go to her grave, okay but until then I want to be alone okay"

"Okay goodbye rainbow dash" Fluttershy turned around and started to leave but then stopped and turned to Rainbow Dash "oh... I twilight told me to give this to you" but rainbow dash had already covered up and gone to sleep so Fluttershy just set a box down next to Rainbow Dash's bed and left.

Rainbow Dash woke up and saw the box. Rainbow Picked up the box and when she saw what was its contents she burst into tears for the content was necklace with a balloon in the middle Pinkie Pie's element of harmony, laughter. She got out of bed she was ready to say the final goodbye she went to pinkies grave stone which read

I leave you now, my friend and all

Knowing full, your tears will fall

But give me a smile, as bright as can be

Through sorrow just smile, if only for me
Out

"Well Pinkie Pie you want a smile I'll try" Rainbow said "I'll miss you but you wouldn't me to mourn forever, would you?"
She asked as if she would receive an answer. Rainbow Dash smiled but she also cried "They say Goodbyes are never easy. Now I know what that really means. The final goodbyes are never easy, Pinkie Pie but I'll try... I can't do it, I’m sorry but I’m not ready"

Then Rainbow Dash heard a voice, the voice was Pinkie Pie's it told Rainbow Dash "It's Okay Dashie take your time and when you’re ready say goodbye but until then smile and spread some joy make others laugh because when you smile the world smiles back at you"

"Okay I will Pinkie" and with that Rainbow Dash flew away smiling ready to spread some joy she had a lot of work to do and she told herself she would not be lazy this time so she convinced the others to help her throw a farewell party to show that there was still joy left and because Rainbow Dash felt the only way she could say goodbye was a party. Everyone came to the party and had a great time and afterward Dash headed back to the grave stone and was ready to say good bye.
