Rainbow Suppressed

Rainbow Dash swallowed, sticking her tongue out in disgust. All of a sudden, she got intense stomach pain. It was working. Rainbow then grabbed the large glass shard in her mouth and placed it above her left hoof.

"There are CUPCAKES!", Pinkie yelled at her friends.

Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, and Fluttershy were there. Rainbow Dash was not there, though. "I reckon that Rainbow Dash ain't gonna be here. Let's just start the party without her. Besides, who needs her?", Applejack remarked.

Every pony else nodded in agreement. Pinkie Pie did not like this. "Stop! Rainbow Dash is the best and you know it!"

Her friends stopped nodding and turned their attention to Pinkie. They all started laughing, but instead of laughing with her, they were laughing AT her.

"Stop! This isn't like you! You guys are Dashie's friends! You wouldn't do this! I know that!"

* * *

Pinkie screamed awake. She glanced toward Rainbow Dash and gasped. "Rainbow Dash!"

Across the alleyway, Rainbow Dash was slitting her wrist.

Rainbow moaned in pain and grabbed her stomach. She opened her mouth and vomited. White pills spilled out of her mouth. There was only one thing that Pinkie could do. She had to stop Rainbow Dash from doing this.

"Rainbow, stop!", Pinkie demanded as she tackled her marefriend.

Rainbow groaned again. This time, with exasperation. "Can't you let me kill myself in peace?", she asked.

"No! I can't let my favorite friend commit suicide! Do you not know what you mean to me?! You mean the world! I love you more than anything! I would never give you up for anything, not even all the sweets in the world!"

Pinkie stopped to catch her breath. Rainbow pushed the pink mare off and flew up to the loop in the rope, which had a trash can under it. She tied the loop around her neck and kicked the can onto its side.

Rainbow Dash chocked and clawed at the rope. Soon, about ten seconds later, she blacked out. Pinkie Pie grabbed the shard and began to cut the rope. It was easy, considering this is Pinkie Pie, and she defies logic all the time. Yet, this time, it was for a purpose.

Successfully severing the rope, Pinkie nabbed the frizzy coat of Rainbow Dash before it reached the ground. Rainbow Dash's face seemed to be puffed out and purple, despite the dirt on it. Pinkie dropped her to the ground and grabbed the shard again. She cut the loop around Rainbow's neck. She then ran as fast as her hooves could carry her to the Ponyville Library.

"Twilight! Twilight!", Pinkie screamed as she threw open the library door.

The princess jumped out of her fur. She turned to see a distressed Pinkie Pie with Rainbow Dash on her back. "Twilight, do you have an adrenaline needle?", Pinkie asked urgently.

"Well, that depends. Is it for a medical purpose?"

"Of course! Now, if you have one, give it to me. Hurry!"

"But-"

"Dashie NEEDS our help! Please!!!"

"Okay." Twilight ran up the stairs. There was a moment of silence, then Twilight came downstairs with an adrenaline needle.

Pinkie Pie quickly took the injection out of Twilight's hooves and jabbed Rainbow's chest. The cyan pony gasped awake. She looked around the room with surprise spread across her facial expression. "What happened?", she asked.

Rainbow glanced at Pinkie Pie and narrowed her brows. "I think I know what happened. I told you to let me kill myself in peace!"

Twilight was surprised to hear that. "Wait, WHAT?! You tried to commit suicide?!"

Pinkie lashed out. "And I said that I wouldn't let my friend commit suicide!"

Rainbow stood up and replied back with the same tone. "Why?! Why did you do this?! I thought you loved me!"

"I DO love you! That's why I saved you!"

"Well, you only made me more miserable!"

Pinkie backed away. Making her friend more miserable? That can't be right! She could only imagine how much pain that Rainbow was in because her friend kept her alive. She thought she would help Rainbow Dash, but instead, she only made things worse. Pinkie Pie's hair deflated and she began to hang her head in sadness. She slowly walked away and out of the library door, tears trickling down her pink face. "Well," she said while looking back at Dashie yet keeping her head down, " Goodbye, Rainbow Dash, my love."

With this, she ran out the door and sobbed.

Pinkie sprinted into Sugarcube Corner and threw herself onto her bed. She flew under the covers and cried herself to sleep. Was Rainbow Dash serious? Was Pinkie Pie only making things worse? She knew that when other ponies are mad, they say things that they don't mean, but the reason that her friend said that links in perfectly to why she's so furious.

The next morning, Mrs.Cake slowly opened the door to Pinkie's room with breakfast. What she saw made her drop the tray in surprise. Laying in bed with Pinkie Pie was Rainbow Dash.

The rainbow-maned pony snorted a little and her eyes slowly opened. She yelled in surprise when her eyes fell on the blue and pink pony before her. She flew swiftly out of the room. Pinkie Pie woke up with a jolt. She then rose her hoof to her forehead and groaned. Mrs.Cake slowly pointed her hoof out the door. "Y-y-your friend just left," she stuttered.

"I don't understand. None of my friends come to visit when I'm asleep."

"She slept on the couch because... she, I guess, was not enjoying her home and didn't want to sleep there last night." Mrs.Cake knew she was telling a lie, but she also knew that Pinkie didn't know that Rainbow slept with her, and she would be disturbed if she had to tell her.
