Day 1: Sweetie BelleView OnlineA Death to Come ByDay 1: Sweetie Belle A dreamless night came to Sweetie as she woke up to the sound of crackling bacon." Shit." She muttered as the smell entered her nose. It reminded her to much of... She couldn't say anymore. It had been almost a week since " it" and Sweetie still wasnt ready to face it, not even the grave. She had been to her adopted parents house every day since then and didnt leave for hours, she would sit on the bed and do nothing but think. Bacon. Back to the bacon, it entered her nostrils causing her to cover them with a hoof and smash her head against a pillow breathing in the smell of it. It smelled like coconut conditioner, just like the young Filly's hair. When the smell wouldn't go away Sweetie got up and headed to her dresser and took out a bottle of perfume Scoots had given her. Sweetie teared up at the thought of Scoots and sprayed the stuff into her nose blocking out her sense of smell, for now. The unicorn levitated her bag, home work, then took a look in the mirror clawing at her face. Watching the bags under her eyes that appeared there a few days ago. The knotted, ratted hair that her sister didn't even bother telling her about. And finally the smile, it was gone replaced by a sad straight line and when she did smile, it was empty completely and utterly empty. Something about it wasnt right and sweetie knew it was the cold, dead look in her dull eyes. After taking a few minutes to take in the completion Sweetie swung her bag over her back and trotted down the stairs, rarity said something but sweetie was out the door before she could reply. Sweetie didnt want bacon, not after what Diamond did. She took her seat in the 2nd row and got out her homework, completely disregarding the fact that Diamond Taira was right in front of her." Sweetie?" She asked rubbing her hoof on her front leg. Sweetie looked up from her bag and scowled at the sight." What Diamond? You've done enough damage." " I wanted to say I'm sorry and I think it wasn't me." " What are you talking about it was you." " But I think I say some pony move the bridge to the castle and that made it snap and fall." " The only reason it snapped was because it was almost 200 years old, and it was you who told Scoots to go to the castle as a harmless prank it's all your fault now that every pony hates you. It's you who did this to me. It's you that every one wants to kill, you took the life a innocent pony, not to mention she was my other best friend, Scoots had a thousand times more dignity and loyalty than you ever will. Unless your sorry can bring back Scoots I don't want to hear it." " I'm sorry Sweetie... Really I-" " IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOU!!" Sweetie cried tears running down her cheeks." SCOOTS WAS THE NICEST BRAVEST FILLY IVE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING AND YOU TOOK HER AWAY FROM ME IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOU. YOU ARE MEAN SELFISH AND ANNOYING AT LEST SCOOTS HAD DIGNITY AND LOOK WHERE IT'S GOTTEN HER. SHE WAS TRUSTING TOO MUCH MAYBE AND YOU KILLED HER BECAUSE SHE TRUSTED YOU." " SCOOTS TRUSTED YOU AND FOLLOWED YOU THINKING I WAS IN A CASTLE NEEDING HELP. HOW SELFISH ARE YOU?! THEN WHILE THE BRIGDE BROKE YOU SHOOK IT AND SHE FELL TO HER DEATH. UNLESS YOU HAVE PROOF TO DENY IT I HATE YOU DIAMOND. I. HATE. YOU!" Sweetie finished screaming and took a deep breath calming herself. " Sweetie..." Diamond began but Sweetie looked at her with a look of hatred and se stopped and walked away. Apple Bloom and Silver Spoon walked into the school house a second later and saw the crying Sweetie and rushed to her side. While Sweetie bawled into Apple Bloom shoulder Silver went over to Diamond and gave her a piece of her mind. " It's ok Sweetie at lest we know that Scoots will be in a safe place and not that hell." Sweetie looked up at Apple and smiled a half hearted smile but nothing change inside her. She felt empty and incomplete with out Scoots she was nothing but an hollow shell with no emotions but hatred and sadness. Apple Bloom put a arm around her and walked Sweetie closer to the grave with Silver at her other side." Guys I-I don't want to." Sweetie breathed a shaky breath and put all her courage into walking forward. " It's ok." AppleBloom said. " You'll be fine we're right here if you need us." "Thank you." Said Sweetie. They walke for a moment longer until both Silver and AppleBlom stop and pushed Sweetie towards the grave. The unicorn gulped and walked forward." Scoots maybe you can hear me maybe you can't but I need to say some stuff I probably never said to you alive. I miss you terribly your my best friend since we were both newborn fillies, and I can't think of you any other way. Rumble also wanted me to tell you he misses you and loves you, he says he won't love again and before you died he was going to ask you out and kiss you." Sweetie help but smile at that part. " I also want to say this. You are my bet friend and full of suprises so for me have other miracle. Please for me... Don't be... Dead." Sweetie finished her last part with a shaky breath and little rivers running down her face. She felt an arm pull her closer and she looked at it. It wasnt AppleBlooms no, it was Button's. " She really meant a lot to you?" He ask. Sweetie nodded in responds." I'm sorry I wasn't there to help, you know I was in the Everfree that day I could have done something but it was too late by the time I heard her scream. I'm sorry Sweetie I should have been quicker." Button didn't even bother making a refence to some game seeing how his marefriend was really upset and depressed. " Button it's not your fault. It's diamond and I don't blame you for not helping you did you tackled Diamond and brought her down. It's not you I blame its Diamond." " Yes I know." Button kissed her forehead and they both turned around to see Snails and Rumble standing beside Apple Bloom and Silver. Snails had his arm wrapped around AppleBloom and they where talking rapidly until Snails bent down and kissed her on the cheek. Rumble was sitting in the dirt drawing with his hoof while Silver talked quietly to him. Sweetie got home that night and took a deep breath, breathing the smell of her room. Somehow it smelled different almost sad, sweetie couldn't place it and didn't want to place it and walked to her bed. She pulled over the covers and climbed into them. Snuggling into the warmth of the quilt she thought of Scoots while the tears swelled up in her eyes. She cried herself to sleep that night until one think came into her mind before sleep." I'm unhappy." She thought." And I'll never be the same again."
Day 2: AppleBloomView OnlineA Death to Come ByDay 2: AppleBloom I thought she was ok you know. I thought she could handle walking home. I thought I didn't have to walk with her but I was late, late for work. And sweetie was sick. These thoughts flooded AppleBlooms head as she woke up for her dream about running the apple farm after to her sister and brother in law, Spike, were dead." Scoots I miss ya." She sighed and pulled her hair back into a pony tail and tied a black ribbon in it, in honor of Scoots. After adjusting her pink bow the filly gripped her bag with her teeth and set off down the stairs and out the door, then coming back to get her lunch. After meeting Silver at the front, they both walked off to the school house chatting about something beside scoots. They pasted Snails house and he bounced along with them contributing to the conversation. Taking a slight detour they gather up rumble and trotted down the road to the School house, just in time to see Button at the front door. " Where's Sweetie?" He asked. AppleBloom looked around at the group and sighed." She didn't join us when we walked by her house to pick Snails." She explained. Button frowned and turned away." She's acting colder and more heartless then usual... I think something else is wrong beside you know." Button rubbed his right hoof in his left front leg awkwardly. " I bet she's fine you'll see her soon." Button sighed again." I hope so." AppleBloom and Silver spoon walked up to Rarity's boutique and knocked hard on the door. Something opened it and choked out." W-w-what do you w-want." AppleBloom took a hard look at the crack in the wall and gasped when she figured out who it was. " Sweetie... You...Your voice." Silver breathed out AppleBloom just stood there. The rest of the door flung open to revile Sweetie. But it wasnt sweetie it was a whole different filly. The Sweetie they saw had matted hair, bags under her dull eyes. She was wearing a bathrobe that was orange with purple fluff( can you guess where I got that Idea?) and what the two saw of the rest of her was grey or in tangles. Sweetie was a tattered mess and nobody not even AppleBloom at this point, knew what to do. " Sweetie what happened?" AppleBloom asked still in shock. Sweetie now cracky voice quickly followed." Diamond happened." It was then that AppleBloom noticed her eyes where red and puffy like she had been crying and a lot from what she could tell." Do you want to get a smoothie with us, or icecream maybe we could think of new ways of crusading?" " NO!!! It's not the same without Scoots." Sweetie slammed the door causing AppleBloom to jump back a little. " What's happened to our sweetie?" Asked silver. AppleBloom scowled." Like she said," AppleBloom turned to Silver Spoon." Diamond happened." " THIS IS ALL DIAMONDS FAULT!" AppleBloom stated to her sister just before bed. " Now now sugar cube you shouldn't blame a pony before you know the whole story." Applejack tried to calm down her sister while Spike tucked AppleLue and GoldenApple into bed. " I know, I know I'll wake Jack and GoldenFang with the screaming but it is sis." The filly inquired. " Now come on what I just say?!" " Don't blame a pony until you know the full story. Great now your using Dad's odd catch phrases." She muttered the last part. " Dad was a good man he worked hard to get what he wanted and hoping could stop him. I suggest you follow in his hoof steps. Scoots is dead there is no denying that, but maybe it wasn't all diamonds fault." Applejack bent down and gave her sister a quick hug. AppleBloom felt the tears running down her eyes. " Good night sis." AppleJack whispered softly into her ear. " AJ," AppleBloom looked up at her sister." Can you sing me my lullaby?" AppleJack smiled she loved singing AppleBloom's lullaby to her. " Yes sugar cube I will." AppleJack led her sister upstairs and tucked her into bed. She cleared her throat and began. Stop your crying it will be all right... Just take my hand. I'll hold you tight. Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun. I'll be here dont you cry. Cause you'll be in my heart no matter what they say. Yes you'll be in my heart always. AppleJack looked down at the now sleeping filly." Good night Sugar." She whispered. AppleBloom mumbled some nonsense in her sleep and AJ took that as a good night. The older one leaned down an kissed her sister softly on the forehead." Sleep tight." And with that AJ left the room and closed the door quietly behind her. The filly looked around and took note that she was in a swirly room of dark purple and blue with stars dotted along like it was outer space." Where am I?" She murmured. " You are in a dream little one." Some pony said. AppleBloon jumped a little and turned around. " L-Luna?" She stammered. Luna emerged from the shadows and AppleBloom scarmbled to the floor to bow before the alicorn princess. It was them she heard a low chuckle." Thou does not have to act like this to a princess you. Thou may stand in my present in a dream." AppleBloom stood up hesitantly. " May I ask what y'all is doin' here in my dream?" Inquired the filly. " I came to give thou a warning of sorts." AppleBloom coxed her head questioning the princess." If thou's friend, Sweetie Belle, does not get any better things will worsen and her heart will grow blacker with each night." AppleBloom looked at the princess in disbelief, all the things she wanted to say we're said in her head since it was Luna and not her sister or some pony else." Young filly I told thou that this is a dream you may say what you wish I will not be offended." The filly bit her lower lip and exhaled deeply." With all do respect your highness I don't think Sweetie is going to turn dark and," Applebloon stopped the words from escaping her mouth," and turn into well a... Nightmare." But she couldn't contain them for much longer. AppleBloom shut her eyes and waited for Luna to strike her for saying such things but nothing happened. She opened and her eyes and no pony was standing there she was all alone." Luna?!" She called into the void of nothingness before her." Luna?!" She tried again but louder. Nothing. " Luna?!" She cried for the last time before things started to get blurring. AppleBloom lost her voice as the dream ended. She pounced awake cold sweat dripping down her." Luna." The filly muttered. No pony answered. AppleBloom sighed and layed her down and feel asleep. Into a dreamless sleep thankfully.
Day 3: Silver Spoon.View OnlineA Death to Come ByDay 3: Silver Spoon. By the time that Silver had woken up AppleBloom was already at her house. It was Saturday and both felt like going to Sugar Cube Corner for a bite to eat." Silver?" AppleBloom Asked as she trotted into the gray Filly's room. Silver mumbled something in her sleep but didn't wake up. AppleBloom sighed and walked over to the lazy filly. " Silver!" She lent down and said in her ear. All this did was stir her in her sleep." Silver!" AppleBloom said a little louder. When this didn't wake her AppleBloom got mad. Really mad." Silver!?" She screamed. Silver shot up and looked around. " What?! Huh I'm up mom!" She mumbled obliviously still half asleep. " Silver it's me." AppleBloom said. Silver looked at her until her eyes lit up. " Sorry," she muttered and reached for something in her nightstand." I need my glasses." She dug a hoof in the nightstand then pulled out a pair of thick rimmed black glass and set them atop the rim if her muzzle. " You want to get icecream?" The yellow earth filly asked cheerfully, now that her newly reformed friend was awake. Silver stumbled out of bed and muttered something in Germane as she feel when her legs couldn't support her body." I'm fine." She stated getting up with no help from Applebloom." Icecream? I haven't even had breakfast?!" " Well we could get breakfast icecream?" AppleBloom said. Silver tapped her chin." I guess but who's going to buy?" Silver asked. AppleBloom teared up but dried them away with the back of her left hoof. " Scoots usually bought the icecream but I guess I'll buy." Silver frowned and walked over to her dresser. " You've been through enough, I'll buy if it makes you happy." Silver sighed and pulled out a few gold bits. " How's bout we split it?" AppleBloom asked. " Good idea." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Silver and AppleBloom walked down the dirt road to the cake shop." I'll go get it if you can hang me your half." AppleBloom stated. " Yeah sure here you go, and a chocolate fudge sundae with extra sprinkles and a side of Oreos will do." Silver listed off the things as she handed the other filly a few gold and silver bits. AppleBloom gaped at the order but walked into the store listing off the things. But when she walked in soomepony tapped Silver's shoulder." Hi." The mare said. Silver looked at the mare in disbelief, if this creature was a mare. The thing that was standing in front of silver was tall, thin, and lean with moutains of black bangs covering her face. Her hair wa held in a lose ponytail tied together with a dull pink ribbon. Onto of her head was a deep red top hot with beads and peices of black strings woven and placed on it." What are you?" Silver asked, forgeting her manners. The mare frowned and blew back some bangs to relieve bright glowing eyes, the orange orbs stared at her in a look of anger. Silver also noticed her pale blue horn that was sparking some red magic at the tip. " I'm a pony! What are you?" She snapped. Silver held a confused look and tried not to look to shaken at the mares words." A filly." The mare still stared at the cowaring filly and took a deep breath to calm her." Forgive me... I was reborn with a temper. And if you didn't notice I'm a zombie pony, stitches included but I hide the one thing that makes me a zombie." " What." Fear was replaced with curiosity. " This." A dark red aurora incased he horn and lifting something from around her neck that was barely visible because of her hair." It's a smybols for all zombie ponies. It means you are one inside and out. I don't follow it however, after all I have a few crushes," she blushed a bit," and I can't help but think what it's like to be alive and to be with my friends without fear of hurting them. But you know all about that don't you?" Silver stared at the zombie mare in a look of shock." How do you know?!" She asked wided eyes and all. " I know many things included your dreams, including all those meetings, all those secrets. Must be a burden really, having to hold to so much when you have so little to gain. What do you think that they love you now! Your the reason this has happen Diamond pushed her, you were suppose to catch her! This is your idea so it's your fault!" Silver wanted to break down into tears but the mare wasn't done. " At lest all of your misake hasn't taken full effect, listen because I'll only say this once and only once... Wait." " For what." Silver asked. " For the one pony everyone needs right now." " Everyone?" That was not the usually language around here. The mare looked surprised for a moment but spoke again." It's common around where I'm from." " And this pony every pony needs do you mean.... Scoots?" The mare nodded." But she's dead." Silver thought the mare was out of her mind. " Yes she is." " Well What is it!?" Silver cried. The mare hushed her and closed the Filly's eyes. Silver opened them after a few seconds past and the mare wasn't standing there. Strange. soon after Apple Bloom came back carrying two shakes with one onto of her head. silver quickly hurried over to her and grabbed the shake on her head." I could have help you, you know?" AppleBloom smiled and placed her shake on the table Silver was sitting at. " I know but i like doing things myself, being babied isn't my forte." The filly sat down on her plot and took a sip of her shake." well you going to eat?" Silver nodded happily and sat greedily sipping up her shake. " Thanks!" She cried. AppleBloom just smiled a sad smile. ' just like scoots use to order.' AppleBloom smiled again and took a few sips from her shake. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Silver tossed and turned in bed until sleep over came her a few minutes later.'its going to be one of those nights.' she thought before drifting off into an uneasy dream land. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ " having a nice time with this one?" Luna asked. Silver looked around and saw that they where in a void of space and time. " better than the last one." Silver muttered. " So how's my favorite filly doing?!" Luna asked cheerfully. " Fine, what secret should you tell me tonight?" Silver grumbled. Luna smile soften and she looked at silver." Tonight it's about you." Silve perked up, she rarely got a secret about her." I came her to tell you that Sweetie is troubled. " silver frown returned. " No dip Sherlock." She mumbled. " You need I save your sister." Silver perked up again. " MY WHAT?!" She screamed. " You have had three dads in your life. The one left when you where one and he look sweetie with him. Your mom quickly remarried a never said a word to anyone about your first dad. When that marriage feel apart, around the time you where six, your mother found a nice stallion and didnt rush to much into marriage." Silver looked dumbstruck and soon felt swilling around her. " Luan wait. LUNA!" She cried. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ " LUNA!" Silver cried waking up. Hot tears streamed her face as she smashed it into a pillow.
Bonus : Babs seedView OnlineA Death to Come ByBonus : Babs seed Looking around Babs tried to spot her friends in the busy streets of manehatten." They're late." She muttered when something wet and rubbery broke on her head. She looked left and right then in an ally that was to left of the store she was standing I front of. Babs then slowly looked up to see the face of a cream colored unicorn with curly flaming orange hair. She was standing next to a giggling dark blue pegasus with green ( almost neon) hair." Hay come on! I was meeting someone here!" The two stop giggling. " Are you Bab Seed." The unicorn asked. " Yes." Babs cried up to the two since they where standing on the roof of some pizzeria. The two ran away quickly and from inside the pizza place Babs could hear the clanking of pans as the fillies ran up to her. " We're super sorry." The unicorn cried bursting through the door. " We didn't know you where Babs." Babs's mother had been talking to her friend one day and thought that her two daughters would be perfect for Babs to be friends with. Ever since then the fillies had sent countless letters back and forward to eachothers coming up with similar interest and all that. Within the first five they all had become friends. " It's fine. The only reason I'm up here is to stay with your guy's mother. Some family issue down southeast that I can't go too." The two smiled at each other, then Babs remembered that the two where related ( though they looked nothing alike), sisters as she recalled. " Come on in I'm Pizza Cutter." The cream unicorn said. " And I'm Pillow Fluff!" The pegasus declared rather loudly. Babs smiled at the thought of becoming friends with these fillies. It was better than thinking about how Scoots was dead.
