What happened?View OnlineIt wasn't supposed to be this wayWhat happened?Sweetie Belle's Pov The last thing I remember was Scootaloo's worried voice screaming my name. Besides that I just remember waking up, taking a huge breath. "Where am I?" I looked around a bit. I was inside the treehouse where me, scootaloo, and apple bloom usually discuss our next idea for getting our cutie marks. "Why am I in here? I thought we were supposed to go get our wood sculpture cutie marks? Or that's what our calender says that we're doing today. Whatever, i'll just go over to the barn. Hopefully scootaloo and apple bloom aren't mad at me for taking a nap in the tree house!" As soon as i said this to myself i immediately started trotting to the barn. While I trotted over to the barn I started wondering why i couldn't remember anything else besides scootaloo's scream. Then i started wondering why she was screaming at all. When i made it to the barn, scootaloo and apple bloom weren't there. I did see applejack though. "Hey granny," applejack said "i just heard from twilight that something seriously bad happened and that scootaloo and apple bloom were involved!" When applejack said that she stormed out of the barn and headed towards ponyville. I couldn't ask her where scootaloo and apple bloom were because she went out so fast. "Wait applejack hold on!" She couldn't hear me. "If something bad is going on over by scootaloo and apple bloom then i should probably follow applejack and see what happened. Hopefully no pony is hurt!" I then started running after applejack. A few minutes later i saw that applejack was heading over to twilight's library. When i saw that applejack entered the library i didn't want to come in on their buisness. So I listened to applejack and twilight's conversation about what happened with scootaloo and apple bloom right outside of twilight's windows. "It's just terrible applejack! Just terrible!" "Well what exactly happened twi'?" Applejack asked. Before twilight started explaining what happened, i could see that tears were starting to fall down her eyes. "I went over to go see how the girls were doing, *sniff* when i saw that one of the girls was...was..." twilight then completely broke out with tears. Its the saddest I've ever seen twilight. "Was what twi'?" Applejack asked putting one hoof around twilight's neck. "Was DEAD!" DEAD!? How could this happen? I didnt want to listen to the rest of their conversation so i started heading over to where we were supposed to do the wood carvings. Although if one of them was dead, i doubt that they would be at the place. Either way i was already heading there.
Who died?View OnlineIt wasn't supposed to be this wayWho died?Back to Sweetie Belle's Pov No! It couldn't be! One of my best friends? Dead? It didn't seem real! I headed straight towards the workshop where we were gonna get our wood sculpture cutie marks. Just the thought of death scares me. "How could one of my best friends pass away so soon? So young?" I asked myself. I stopped and hit the ground with my hoof as hard as i could. But. Wait. My hoof didn't hurt. "That's weird." I actually then noticed i couldn't feel the ground. I started pounding against it with everything i had but i still couldn't feel it. "The ground must be really soft or something." I told myself. Enough worrying about that, i gotta go say one last goodbye to my friend. I continued down to the workshop. As i started getting closer to the workshop i could hear the sirens from an ambulence. I went towards the ambulence as fast as i could because i knew it probably had to do with my friends. When i arrived there was a crowd around the ambulence. I tried looking for scootaloo or apple bloom in the huge crowd. "Scootaloo! Apple bloom!" I screamed. I screamed their names once more but i didn't get an answer. I tried asking mares and stallions if they've seen an orange filly with a purple mane or a yellow filly with a red mane. No one in the crowd answered me. No pony in the crowd even looked at me. I then screamed as loud as i could to see if one pony will at least look at me. Still. No pony looked at me. "Its probably the sirens" i told myself. "They are really loud." The best i could do now was try to go into the middle of the crowd to see if i could see the dead pony. I squeezed through the crowd without any trouble. It was like i phased right through them. When i got to where the dead filly was i could see that the filly had a white sheet covering its entire body. Next to the sheet-covered filly i could see apple bloom and scootaloo, crying. "What, i thought that twilight said one of the girls was dead. How is it that both apple bloom and scootaloo are here? Alive?" I thought to myself. I tried asking my friends who the pony under the sheet was. But they didn't answer. "Yoo hoo! Scootaloo! Apple bloom!" Still. It looked like AB and Scootaloo were too busy wiping their eyes with tears and filling them back up with more tears. A quick thought came to my head. "It must be Bab seed! She's the only other CMC member! The only problem with that was that Babs lived all the way in Manehattan. So who could it be?" "We're sorry Sweetie belle! It was an accident! We didn't mean to hurt you!" Said AB and scootaloo still crying. "Sweetie belle? Me? Uhh... guys I'm right here!" "Now you're gone forever!" Said AB. Gone forever? What were they saying? If they were saying that i was dead then that's impossible! Im standing right here! Scootaloo asked one of the ambulence members if they could lift up the white sheet over the pony's face and say one last goodbye. I couldn't believe what i saw. It was me! Half of my face was broken and blood was still wet from my severe neck wound and all the other deep cuts in my skull. I stood there. The bottom of my mouth was shaking and i was breathing heavily because of the horrid and unbelievable sight. A tear rolled down my left eye, but i didn't notice until it was about to fall off my cheek. When scootaloo lifted up the sheet off my face apple bloom stepped back a little. She couldn't handle the mutilated corpse which was one of her best friends. Scootaloo opened up the backpack that was at her side and pulled out a CMC cape. I could tell it was mine because mine had a stain on it from when i cooked my big sister a huge breakfast, which she called burnt, but i knew was just a bit overcooked. Scootaloo slowly put the cape over my corpse's face and covered it back up with the white sheet. "We'll miss you sweetie." "Yeah. I hope you'll be much happier in the afterlife. Just don't forget about us. We won't forget about you!" Said scootaloo and AB. I couldn't bear the thought of me being dead. I ran back to the tree house. Right now i just wanted to be alone with no noise and sadness. The thing was was that i don't think i have any other option. Now that I'm like this...
What happens now? Pt.2View OnlineIt wasn't supposed to be this wayWhat happens now? Pt.2The two fillies who had just entered the room slowly walked to their positions when they did role call. I saw and knew what they were about to do so I walked over to my position. "In place of Sweetie Belle, I, Apple Bloom, will take attendance for this meeting," said Apple Bloom in a very depressed voice. "Scootaloo?" "Here," replied Scootaloo also sounding very sad. "Apple Bloom? Here," said Apple Bloom to herself. "Sweetie Belle?" "Here," responded Sweetie Belle, knowing that her friends wouldn't hear anyway. "Absent," said Apple Bloom, who wrote a red X next to Sweetie Belle's name. "Alright, now that we have taken attendance we can talk about tonight's agenda. But first we have an announcement for all other crusaders." Apple Bloom paused. The room fell completely silent for about 5 seconds. Apple Bloom then continued. "Fellow crusaders! It's pretty obvious that one of our crusaders is not present in this meeting. Well if you haven't heard, which I'm sure you have, Sweetie Belle passed away in an attempt to earn her cutie mark. Because of this, us cutie mark crusaders must do something special in honor of our fallen crusader." "Oooh!" Said Scootaloo finally looking a little bit excited. "Sweetie Belle always loved sleepovers! Can we have one in the clubhouse?" "Scootaloo, we usually always sleepover in the clubhouse." Said AB. Scootaloo thought for a minute. "Well what if this time we make the clubhouse a little bit more... sweetie-ish?" "Well that could work. But how are we gonna make this place... umm... sweetie-ish?" "By putting stuff sweetie belle likes, duh." Sweetie was just standing there. Happy that her friends were going to do something to try to repair the emotional crack, even though it wouldn't fix the physical one. "Scootaloo, can you go down to the boutique and grab something of Sweetie's? Something that means a lot to her?" "Yeah, sure!" Responded Scootaloo already heading out the door. "I'll go get some other things to decorate this place!" Said AB to herself. Sweetie Belle watched as her friends went out into the night just for her. "Thanks" she said, a small but cute smile on her face.
A bright light and a last goodbyeView OnlineIt wasn't supposed to be this wayA bright light and a last goodbye10 minutes after AB and Scootaloo left Sweetie Belle looked around the CMC Clubhouse and tried to remember all the good times they had. SB didnt know what was going to happen to her in the afterlife so she just wanted to remember the good times before she wouldnt be able to anymore. As SB was looking around the room, the room became unnoticeably brighter. After a few seconds SB noticed the change in brightness and also heard a voice. This voice was unfamiliar to her but she could tell it was a female voice. "Come" it said. Sweetie Belle turned to face where the voice was coming from. Sweetie Belle was confused at what she was looking at. There was just a ball of light floating in the middle of the room. Sorta like looking at a flashlight dead on. "Hello?" asked SB to the ball of light. "Hello there, Sweetie Belle" responded the ball of light. "Who are you? What... are you?" "I have no name, Sweetie." "Ok... why are you here?" " I am here to bring you to the final stage of the afterlife." "WAIT!! Im not ready to leave just yet!" Exclaimed SB. "It's too late Sweetie Belle. I've already given you more time then i shouldve to be with your friends." "Please! Just a little longer!" Asked SB. "Look Sweetie, we have to go." Said the ball of light going closer to SB. "Please, i need to say goodbye to friends" SB begged. "How? You are a ghost now Sweetie. You cant communicate with the living." "There must be something i can do to tell them that i forgive them and tell them that im doing fine!" The ball of light didnt say anything. Since the ball of light had no face SB couldnt tell what expression it had, but she knew that it was thinking. "I can let you be mortal again, for one minute. To say your farewells and whatnot. But there is no inbetween. As soon as the minute is up you will go directly into the final stage of the afterlife." "Thank you" said Sweetie Belle with one teardrop rolling down her cheeck. At that moment, AB and Scootaloo trotted through the clubhouse door. Both the ball of light and Sweetie Belle turned towards the two mortal fillies. "You have one minute" said the ball of light as it turned towards Sweetie Belle. "Go."
The 60 second CMC reunionView OnlineIt wasn't supposed to be this wayThe 60 second CMC reunionSweetie Belle changed, a bright purple aura outlining her white fur coat as she became mortal again. Apple Bloom and Scootaloo dropped their decorations and other supplies at the sight of their dead friend. "S-S-Sweetie Belle?" Asked Scootaloo who was feeling almost every emotion. The 60 seconds had started "Hi guys!" Said Sweetie Belle feeling so happy she could just explode. "Sweetie Belle... why are ya here? How are you here? Asked Scootaloo and Apple Bloom. 60...59...58...57...56...55... "Look guys, i dont have a lot of time to say this but i forgive you! I know you guys didnt mean to hurt me but its ok." 50...49...48...47...46...45... "Thanks Sweetie, we feel a lot better hearing you say its alright, but how are you here right now? Asked AB. 40...39...38...37...36...35... "Oh, well when you guys left, this ball of light said it had to take me to the final stage of the afterlife. I begged it to give me 1 minute to say goodbye and it did" responded Sweetie Belle. 30...29...28...27...26...25... "Well its already been 30 seconds Sweetie Belle! You dont have much time!" Said Scootaloo. 20...19...18...17...16...15... "I know Scoots!" Said Sweetie Belle. As Sweetie Belle said this there was something in the shape of a tornado starting at her hooves. It became bigger with each passing second. The three fillies looked at each other and came into a circle, hugging each other. 10...9...8...7...6...5... "Look guys..." started Sweetie Belle 4... "...no matter what happens to you guys..." 3... "...i want you to know..." 2... "...that you guys will always be my best friends..." 1... All three fillies sat upright with their right hooves put vertical across their foreheads. 0... "Cutie Mark Crusaders, out!" The three fillies said in unison. The tornado around Sweetie Belle's body fully covered her whole body except for her face. Her body was slowly fading away. "Goodbye, friends" said Sweetie Belle her voice fading away with her body. A tear rolled off of Sweetie's face and fell right onto the clubhouse floor. Sweetie Belle was now gone. Forever. Apple Bloom and Scootaloo looked at the teardrop that fell from Sweetie's face and onto the floor. "Goodbye, Sweetie."
What happens now?View OnlineIt wasn't supposed to be this wayWhat happens now?Once again Sweetie Belle Pov I finally reached the treehouse exhausted. I wasn't in the best shape. It seems that a few rules of science still apply to the afterlife, for some reason. I clenched my chest. I was inhaling huge amounts of oxygen just from the small run from the crowd. I started walking up the little wood ramp to the inside of the clubhouse. A sharp pain instantly hit my right side. "Ow!!" I really hate when my side hurts like that. All the way up the ramp i held my side. When i got all the way to the clubhouse door my side stopped hurting enough for me to walk without holding my side. I tried opening the door with my magic but it didn't work. I figured that since i'm now considered a "ghost" i can phase right through it, which happened to be the case. The room was pretty dark. Not to where you couldn't see where you were going though. I walked over to one of the corners of the treehouse and rolled up into a ball shape. I just wanted to forget about today, and everything that happened. I closed my eyes. I was now asleep. After a few hours of sleeping, I slowly woke up, i dont know how many hours later, to the sound of hoofsteps right outside the clubhouse door. Someone was trying to open the door. I was now fully awake. The room was almost completely pitch black so i wasn't able to see who walked into the clubhouse. I was able to take a guess from who the ponies were from the moonlight hitting them. One was winged while the other a normal earth filly. Oh it's just Apple Bloom and Scootaloo, I thought to myself. My guess was correct. Apple Bloom turned on the clubhouse light and it revealed the identity of the two fillies. Both of their eyes looked red and sore from them crying earlier. I wish I could tell them that I was here, right next to them. But I just couldn't.
