I locked myself in my bedroom with the curtains closed and the lights off. I tearfully hid under the covers of my bed, but deliberately kept myself awake.

...Ponyville is empty now...Everypony's gone now...

...My friends, my family, everypony...they're all gone...

...I could've joined them...But I didn't want to abandon my sense of reality...

...So I abandoned them...

...There's nothing else I can do now...

...Twilight...

...If you can hear me...Please...Put an end to this madness...and bring everypony back...

"I'm working out the bugs in Her Kindnesty's new system right now," said a familiar feminine voice behind me. It was Twilight Sparkle. She sounded more cheerful than usual. "You'll be a happy productive foal in no time."

I gently tugged at my covers.

Damn it all...Even Twilight is gone...

...So be it...

...I have lost all hope in this world...This is the end of Equestria...

...And with all Elements of Harmony confiscated and its Spirits manipulated, there's nothing that can be done...

"Oh, come out and play already!" grumbled another female pony behind me. Her voice I didn't recognize, but it didn't matter. Nothing did anymore. "It'll be good stress relief and a good outlet for any emotional problems you were having before!"

"It's too dangerous for me to go outside now..." I sobbed quietly. "With the state the world is in now, my room...is the best place for me..."

"If you won't trust Princess Gaia," she pleaded. "Will you at least trust me?"

"I don't trust anypony anymore...I can't. Everypony except me is under Princess Gaia's spell now...So I can't trust anypony..."

"Think of it as a vacation rather than a lifestyle change," she continued. "You know my student, er, I mean Princess Celestia's student will win out in the end. Princess Celestia had massive faith in her. So why not just enjoy this?"

"...No...I don't want to live in the same world as her...As long as she exists, I'll never be happy..."

"That is me talking. Nopony's controlling me."

"...Liar. If you come any closer, I'll kill you..."

Thus, the female pony sighed as she finally turned her back on me and left shutting the door behind her.
I was left alone once again. All I could do is continue to lie in my bed and bury my ugly face in my covers. There was nothing else I could do.

Absolutely nothing.

And then, I felt the entire town quaking beneath my hooves. I let out a frightened scream as I immediately gripped my covers startled by the sudden shockwave.

After a few seconds, everything quickly stopped shaking. But I continued to shiver hysterically...

"...Kill me...
...Somepony...Kill me...
...Please...Kill me...
...Kill me...
...Kill me...
...Somepony...Kill me...
...SOMEPONY, KILL ME!!!
I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!!! I DON'T WANNA LIVE ANYMORE!!! SOMEPONY KILL ME ALREADY!!! I HATE THIS WORLD!!! I HATE BEING ALIVE!!! I HATE EVERYTHING!!!"

The next thing I knew, I was impaled through the heart by a long, tar-black lance; the same lance that was chained to my heart when Princess Gaia tried to force through her own.

I thought biting off my own tongue was the most painful experience in my life. But I was wrong. I couldn't even think of words I could use to describe this pain.

One thing for sure; this time, I'm dying for good.

All I ever wanted was to live a long and happy life; to live my life to the fullest with my friends and family.

But I knew from the day I was born that I would never be able to make my dream come true. Because I learned that nothing lasts forever.

Everything that has a beginning has an end. Happiness and life are no exceptions. Every living creature eventually dies. But for every death, a new life begins.

I am definitely no exception. I've lived as happy as possible for as long as I could. It was fun while it lasted. I'm glad that I was born. I'm glad I met so many ponies. I'm glad I made so many friends. But now, my end has come.

Goodbye...everypony...

...It's been...wonderful...knowing...yo...u...al...

Hee hee hee hee hee! This garden is so pretty! I looove it! I wish I could stay here forever and ever! And-Oh! Are these...cherry blossom trees? The ones Ms. Cheerilee told me about? Wow! They look so beautiful! I've never seen THIS kind of trees before! Smell lovely too!

Oh, I wish there were more trees like this in Ponyville! They would make it look even MORE beautiful than it alrea-

Huh?

Wh...What is that noise...? An explosion?

I turned around to see what it was.

"Wait," I said. "Isn't that Mama Princess Gaia's castle!?"

"Don't worry," said Sunny Day. "Play time isn't over quite yet."

"B-But, what about Princess Gaia's castle!?" I said.

"I need to thank her for fixing it up for me," she said. "I always told myself I'd get the renovations on the old castle started this century."

"No!" I said. "I'm talking the explosion!"

Sunny Day said nothing.

"Is Mama OK!?" I cried.

"Don't worry," she said. "I have faith in Twilight and all her friends."

"I hope so," I said nodding my head.

"AAAAAAGGGH!" screamed somepony. It was Mama Princess Gaia!

"Mama!" I cried. "What's wrong! MAMA!"


WORLD P-40 - NEO x 1


I slowly opened my eyes. I was staring at my own bed covers.

"...I'm still alive..." I uttered.

I gently rubbed my eyes as I slowly picked myself up and pulled the covers away from my body. I slowly turned to look out of my bedroom window.

Huh!

The fog! It...It's gone! Just a moment ago, the entire town was covered in a thick fog...But now it's gone!

Wait...Does that mean...my nightmare is finally over! Everything is back to normal!

Only one way to find out!

Without hesitation, I unlocked my bedroom door, ran all the way downstairs and out of the house locking the front door behind me.

"Hello!" I cried. "Is anypony there! Twilight! Fluttershy!"

And so, I ran into the streets of Ponyville constantly looking both ways for Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy. I searched and searched passing several familiar houses and ponies as I ran through the town. I searched and searched until I completely ran out of breath.

"Isn't it wonderful that Princess Gaia gave us all a day to relieve our childhood and to be free of our inner demons?" said a familiar feminine voice in front of me. I quickly lifted my head to see who it was.

"M-Ms. Cheerilee!" I gasped catching my breath. "Are you OK! A few minutes ago, this whole town was covered in fog and everypony I knew started acting weird like they were drugged! ...But now, the fog is gone. Are you OK?"

"I'm better than fine," she confirmed with a smile. "Everyone in town now just loves Princess Gaia for what she did whether she likes it or not."

"W-What are you talking about?" I replied frowning in confusion. "The fog's gone. Is...Princess Gaia still alive? Has she still got Fluttershy!"

"Nope," said a smart-looking beige stallion slowly passing by. "Everything is changed forever and can't be undone. Ninety-five percent of Ponyville, Cloudsdale, Applelosa, among other major cities, have been cured of the long lasting effects of the mental damage caused by Discord by getting to live a day of innocence where their demons didn't seem to important anymore. Those who were able to carry that joy with them when their shadows returned and they became adults again, those were the ones cured of Discord's taint in this way. Not bad for an empty-headed, overly emotional filly-mare with an empty-nest complex."

Who is he calling empty-headed? And I'm a colt, not a mare.

"What's he talking about, Ms. Cheerilee?" I asked turning back to her. "Come on! Talk to me!"

"Well," Cheerilee replied with a nervous smile. "I just had myself magically scanned repeatedly and took a psychological examine along with some of my fellow devoted so our Princess won't think we're still under a geass, so our Princess can know our love for her is real."

I don't believe this...They still support that bitch Gaia! After what she did to us! After what she did to me!

"What about Fluttershy!" I continued desperately changing the subject. "Is she OK!"

"Hi," whispered a familiar timid female voice behind me.

"Hello, Princess Gaia," Cheerilee greeted.

Princess Gaia!?

"Er, can you not call me that?" she replied.

"Yes, Princess Fluttershy."

"Fluttershy!?" I gasped immediately turning around to see who it was.

I couldn't believe my eyes. It really was Fluttershy! It wasn't Princess Gaia! It was the real Fluttershy!

"FLUTTERSHY!!!" I cried.

And there I was, wrapping my arms around Fluttershy with tears swelling up in my eyes. And these weren't tears of sorrow. They were tears of joy.

"Fluttershy!" I sobbed happily. "I...I never thought I'd see you again! I thought you, Twilight and everypony would be gone forever!"

And so, I continued to hold her in my arms and started crying over her shoulders. I was never this happy to see her in my entire life.

After shedding a few tears, she gently embraced me in return. She embraced me like she would anypony. And I didn't mind.
I didn't mind her hugging me. I didn't mind other ponies watching us. Nothing else mattered to me.

All that mattered was that everypony and everything were finally back to normal. This was the happiest moment in my life so far.
