Saying goodbye

Many years after Twilight's coronation she found herself in front of the fire in a guest bedroom in canterlot castle looking at her photo album relaxing after a hard day's work when Spike her older and much taller assistant knocked on her door "Twi? you in there there's a letter for you." "come on in Spike and read it to me please." Twilight called as Spike came in softly and sat beside Twilight before opening the letter

Dear Twilight as you might of remembered how at the picnic last week i was ill? i need you and Spike to come to the hospital so i can see you again please come as quickly as you can.Your friend Fluttershy

. Twilight looked at Spike who also and turned to look at Twilight with a look of worry " pack an overnight bag Spike we're going to ponyville!" cried Twilight as she grabbed her photo album, as Spike hurried to oby 20 minutes later Twilight and Spike took to the sky soaring over Canterlot they soon touched down outside Fluttershy cottage Twilight knocked softly on the door soon it opened to reveal Pinkie Pie who was looking in need of a hug as twilight hugged her friend she noted that Pinkie didn't bounce anymore and simply walked over to the couch were Applejack and Rarity were sitting both looking forlorn "where's Rainbow?" Twilight questioned Applejack She pointed towards the hospital "Oh" Spike whispered Twilight cleared her throat. The friends stood as they all nodded as they walked through ponyville the townsfolk murmured as they parted to let Twilight and her friends though, as they reached the waiting room in the hospital Nurse Redheart ushered them through to room 12 Nurse Redheart opened the door and entered the girls and dragon following behind her. Soon they all crowded round the bedside "Fluttershy?" Spike asked fearing that she was gone when Fluttershy opened one teal eye and cracked a small smile "Girls Spike i'm glad so glad She nodded at Rainbow who was sitting beside her, Rainbow nodded and gave out five lockets two were already round Fluttershy and Rainbows necks as everyone put the lockets on Fluttershy started to speak " in there are locks of our hair they will keep us together even in death, girls thank you for a amazing journey it means so much to me and as an old mare it means even more that you've come here today to say goodbye i'll miss you all so much, i thought you would come to see your old friend, i'm glad i meant enough for you all to come." " Fluttershy you were more than a friend, we met in flight school and we were instant best friends, never forget you stood up to Discord and he is no picnic!" Rainbow cried everyone came in and gave Fluttershy a great big group hug as they let go Fluttershy smiled and said "Thank you...." , Rainbow softly closed Fluttershy's unseeing eyes. Twilight wiped away a few tears Rainbow muttered "funeral on Friday are you all coming?" Everypony nodded their heads; as the element of kindnesses last words ringing in their ears. as they all left Spike paused in the doorway "Thanks Fluttershy for everything." as he walked away He heard the sound of butterflies he wirled around a butterfly by his friend crying.
