The Beginning

Rain Fly's Perspective

"i cant believ u r doing this u idiot >:(" I text as I am betrayed by my own "friend."

"Look its nothin personal kk i just have to leave u now because im growing up now, i have to be with other people now" my old friend says

"oh fuck u you sour shitface" I text angrily.

We used to be the best of friends, especially back in kindergarten. We have known eachother and were friends up to this point. 11th grade.

In kindergarten, she came up to me when I was crying, no one had wanted to play with me. She played with me and made me feel like I was special. We had no problems at all, she went to Pon E's with me with my birthday parties, we had bought eachother special presents, we had gone on vacations together.

It changed in 9th grade when she decided she needed a new friend. I was fine with this until everyday, they were gone and not coming back to me. I had just been by myself wondering what the hell just happened. I was bullied, my family went missing (Someone came one night and took my parents and... they've never been back.), multiple suicide attempts failed because someone just has to call 911 on me.

"Oh dear god, her hooves, their-----I... LET ME GO IM SAVING YOU!"

"Maybe I WANT TO BE DEAD"

I just wanted to be gone and now that my best friend is never wanting to talk to me again out of the blue...

I have no reason to stay.

Courtney's Perspective

I'm part of the security force here in Equisteria. Hired by the princesses, including Twily, I call her Twilight, we have tea from time to time.

"I see another one has... I feel uncomfortable saying the word" Twilight Sparkle says.

"Someone else has died Twilight, get your head from the hole and say 'died' for me, ok? This stuff happens on a daily basis, and hell, Twilight, you are a princess, you should know bad things like this happen. Bullying is a very real concept, Applejack has talked to me about this, why hasn't she said anything to you? She needs to, because you act as if the concept doesn't exist" I say, I am very blunt.

"Wow, your awfully negative."

"You haven't met me apparently."

"Well, I get you've had a bad past but my celestia..."

"Yeah... I'm sorry, this has been a very bad afternoon, I need to head on out now---"

"Stop" Twilight interrupts. "I must see what your job is like."

"No, please... it's too sad for anyone to go through."

"Then why do you do it?"

"Hmmm... Your right. Well, somebody's gotta do the job."

I give a wink to Twilight.

"You mean...?"

"Ah-huh."
