  Chrysalis looked time and then found with surprise that time was nine o'clock(PM). "Alright, I don't do more tonight. It's too late and I'm tired." said Chrysalis. And went out of that room.

  All Rainbow wounds were still bleeding pretty much. Then Soarin got an idea to take a cloth piece from his pants. He took two pieces and tied Rainbow hands with these. "I think that would slow bleeding down." said Soarin and then Pinkie asked: "Are they hurting?" "Yes. But that isn't your fault. You tried not to do deep cuts, but Chrysalis forced you. And when to say the truth...I'm even proud of you."said Rainbow. "You are?" was Pinkie surprised. "Yeah. You did that all without you had give up and even didn't cried. I broke. You haven't cried almost all and I'm the most. If I have to but our group to the emotional table, you would be the first place for not crying much." said Rainbow. She was pretty weak about losing much blood. Those cloth pieces were already blood-drenched. She was even little bit worried. From Pinkie eyes came few tears. Rainbow noticed and said: "Don't cry. I'm going to be okay. Just a little rest will make it better I think. But right now, I think I'm bleeding faster then my heart can make more blood.". Then Applejack said: "I think we would go to sleep. It's getting late.". With these words they fell asleep.

  For the midnight Rainbow some wounds had stopped hurting, but they still bleed. She moved closer to Soarin and tried to go sleep again. Then Soarin opened his eyes and smiled to her. "Hi, Rainbow." he said. "I'm sorry if I woke you up." said Rainbow quietly to not wake others. "No I didn't. I woke by myself." answered Soarin. Then he raised up for a moment and then sat down. Rainbow did same. "Are your wounds still hurting?" asked Soarin. "Not that much anymore. But I can't touch them yet." said Dash. "That's okay. When I fell down from tree, when I was five years old, I couldn't touch my knee for weeks." said Soarin. "It's going to be okay. I know so." he continued. " You just can say right thing on right times."said Rainbow with a smile.

  Soarin smiled his cute smile what he did sometimes. When he smiled like this he looked like little child. Then Rainbow said: "It's getting chilly. And I think it's New Years Eve soon. Isn't that 30th December today?" asked Rainbow. "Yes, it is," answered Soarin and then continued "I know I say it too much, but...I love you. And I still don't know why I say it so much. But it can be from that I fear to lose you. We haven't been together very much and I still wanna be. But we both now one of us die before other. And I don't imagine my life without you. I hate this cave. I hate Chrysalis. I hate death...But I love you.". He smiled and put his hand on Rainbow's hand. Rainbow smiled back and then

kissed him. That kiss was four minutes long.

  When that was over, Soarin said: "Tomorrow is my turn to get my knife stabs. Will you do it?". Rainbow said: "You know I can't handle it. And I can't definitely do it to you. You saw me with Pinkie." "I know. But I don't wanna to Chrysalis do it. She seems doing it very painfully."
