A Happy Ending

This day... It's the worst day I've had in my life. I thought I had succeeded in showing what friendship meant with those girls ruining what it means with their squabbling and lack of much care. And Flash had found out.

"Sunset. I know what you did. You broke the bond between that group of girls didn't you? I thought you cared about friendship, about love. You've said so much in favor of the magic of friendship. Where has all that gone? Why have you done this!?"

I was speechless. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. The largest fear I had became reality.

"Flash. Listen to me. They mocked what friendship meant. Their petty squabbling, lack of care for each other. How is that friendship!? HOW IS THAT LOVE!? Because Flash, it isn't. You must see it like I do, please... You know as well as I do that arguing isn't what friends-" He shoved me aside. I can't believe this is happening.

"Friends argue Sunset. It's part of friendship's growth. Friends will argue. That doesn't mean they aren't friends anymore. You can't be as shallow as that.You described it as the best thing that had ever happened to you. It's the best thing to happen to anyone. What the hell makes you think YOU should control other people's friendships. Who do you think you are to force people apart. You're no different than that mentor of yours. Forcing people out of friendship instead of into it, but that is still a similarity. You talk like you despise whoever she is, yet you've become her. Look at yourself."

"But Flash I... I'm not like her! No! I wouldn't control friendship. I couldn't because there wasn'tany. Why would friends have to argue to become better friends? That's completely against the whole point of what friendship stands for! I thought you understood that... I thought that-"

"I don't want to hear it Sunset. I thought I saw someone special in you. I saw a bright, beautiful girl who I could relate to in no way I could relate to any other living person I've met. I loved that girl. She was the one person in my life that gave me something to live for. And now... she's gone. Because she can't accept that other people won't be as close as we are. Sunset, you've done a terrible thing. Friendship, Love, these aren't things that can just be glued together just like that. It takes time, dedication. It takes strength to forge the bonds of friendship. And... you, in one night, slashed the bond that had held us close for so long. The bond of love, care, dedication and morality. You've lost all of them. You aren't the Sunset Shimmer I remember anymore. And Because of this happening, I failed my big exam. And Why? Because I was shattered, angered and depressed all at the same time because someone would commit an act as cruel as this. You've ruined my life by doing this. How does that make you feel Sunset? Knowing that you've crushed my life as well as the girls who didn't deserve it. You ruined 6 lives, and inevitably you'll ruin more... I thought you had redeemed yourself from how you described your past self. But no. I'm sorry, but you aren't Sunset Shimmer anymore. Goodbye, you... monster,"

Just like that. I was alone again. For trying to prove that those girlsdidn't have true friendship, nothing but a string holding them together. I wanted to prove that our bond was the strongest of all, that could never be broken. Ironic that the one thing that it took to break was one of the people who had forged the very same tie.

I had fell into depression after Flash had left me. He never spoke to me again, but didn't tell anybody about what I had did, not even those girls. I guess there was at least some care left in him. Some... morality. I don't care anymore. This was just... an ordeal. It took a loss as huge as this one to make me realize once again, that this friendship really is just useless. And now it has helped me realize even more. It brings nothing but discord, hatred and resent. It went against all it meant.

I'm so sorry Flash. But thank you. You've helped me see all this. All this for breaking your heart... Was it really a price worth paying? A thought that would haunt me, always making me ponder my decisions for the times to come.

You've helped me realize that all this was useless. This love we've had would always break. It was just a matter of when.

Now I can see that. No one should have to suffer as much as this, now should they. Is it really bad for me to have saved those 5 girls from heartbreak? Think of it what you will, but I will always know this, friendship really is magic. Evil, dark, twisted magic that only maims and destroys.
