Darkness and Loyalty

I sat on a cliff, the almost full moon shining and stars sparkling.

The snow was falling quietly and most of Ponyville was asleep. The cold air and wind flowed peacefully in my mane and tail.

My breath was a light grey cloud in the freezing cold weather. My own magenta eyes sparkled as I looked at the stars and saw an outline of my 5 friends: Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy. I did have them as friends, yet it didn't feel like it for a bit due to my parent's death, yet I tried to be brave and fast and loyal on the outside, yet I'm cracked, depressed, and bad tempered on the inside.

I was too scared to tell my friends my dark secret of how I felt inside.

"How could they leave me, and not like me, have they left me here to die? My sadness overwhelms me and I'll try not to cry, and be strong... because I'm a monster." I whispered softly, a small tune to it.

"Wow Dashie, I had no idea you were so good at singing!" Said a mare voice behind me.

I turned around to face Pinkie Pie and my other 4 friends giving me soft looks.

Snow blew in front of my face.

"Y-you heard me?" I uttered, almost starting to cry, knowing her friends knew I was soft inside and not as brave.

"Yeah, you er' great!" Said Applejack as she hugged me tightly.

"Well.... t-tell no pony!" I sniffed to my still soft faced friends.

My friends Pinkie promised and group hugged.

"We would never leave you!" Said Twilight to me as they all trotted back to sugar cube corner for Hot Cocoa.

"I-I know." I uttered.

"I'm a monster!" I thought as tears burned in my eyes.

"Dash, why are you a monster dear?" Asked Rarity, looking me right in my teary eyes.

"I wish I could say." I began but was interrupted by a Ding! from the bell which signals Pinkie or the Cake's if there's a customer. I wiped away the tears and got up to see who came in so late. I gasped, surprised at who it was.
