Fall of the Butterflies

by chankl2
Friendship is something that should be respected. It has created new life, new emotions with every step, forming unbreakable bonds that bring happiness and joy in our darkest hours. But what if the inevitable happens? What do you do then?

It is weeks after the Summer Sun Celebration. The residents of Ponyville are enjoying the arrival of fall and the leaves are already starting to drop gracefully one by one to the soft ground. Each of the mane 6 are doing their own hobbies and jobs just as always, and it doesn't seem like anything would go wrong, that their friendship would never be fractured. Or so they thought. Sometimes we ask ourselves the single and simple question: "Why?", to no answer, to no solution. Sometimes there is nothing we can do and we are forced to accept that, as that is the definition of life. To move on.

There is no such thing as a perfect ending, but it doesn't mean that you have to give up on it.
