It All Starts With an Idea
“Rainbow Dash!” I shouted “Don’t leave me, please. Don’t leave me here...” I trailed off not letting go of my role model, the pony I looked up to, who I wanted to impress.
“Scootaloo I-” Twilight tried to say only for Applejack to interrupt her.
“I think we should leave her alone, for now alright,” Applejack said sadly
“But she was our friend too…” Fluttershy whispered, speaking for the first time that day.
“Don’t ya think I know that?” Applejack said looking over at me“I just think, Scootaloo took it a mite bit harder than we did,” I was barely listening to the conversation at hoof as I was preoccupied with holding onto Rainbow, not caring when I heard 5 ponies exit the room. Her body was quickly becoming cold with all the warmth sucked away. Without the warmth, I couldn’t keep imagining she was alive anymore and started to cry, cry about how unfair it was that Somepony I cared about was taken away from me just like that.

“What if she doesn’t recover from this Applejack?” Twilight asked worried for the small filly as they waited outside the door.
“What about us?” Applejack countered “I know for a fact she will recover, but what will happen to the elements? Rainbow’s dead so the Elements of Harmony shouldn’t work.”
“I don’t know what will happen to them, no one knows the full nature of the elements or their full power,” Twilight said raising her voice.
“Oh, so Twilight Sparkle doesn’t know something! How shocking!” Applejack said raising her voice to match, Twilights.
“Girls! Stop fighting please!” Fluttershy shouted surprising, Applejack and Twilight, Rarity, however, remain unusually quiet. “Only if you want too of course…” Fluttershy said her voice returning to her quiet manner.
“Fluttershy’s right we shouldn’t fight,” Twilight said her tone close to matching Fluttershy’s quiet manner. Applejack simply got up and walked away, Fluttershy quietly excused herself although, with the way she was struggling to control her emotions, the real reason she wanted to leave was clear.
“I just hope your right Applejack, about Scootaloo,” Twilight said to no one in particular as she walked down the hallway leaving the silent, Rarity alone. Rarity got up and walked away without a word spoken.
---Scootaloo P.O.V---
I felt somepony shaking me awake, opening my eyes I saw it was a doctor.
“Scootaloo isn’t it?” the grey coated mare asked.
“Yes that’s me,” I told her my tone void of any emotion.
“Alright then you have to go, we have to sterilize the body and prepare it for burial,” the grey mare said motioning for me to go. Reluctantly I unwrapped my hooves and slowly walked out of the room keeping my eyes locked on Rainbow Dash. Every step of the way was a stab of pain to my heart. I wanted to ignore her to just run back up to Rainbow and stay there.
But I didn’t, I closed the door behind me and ran out of the hospital as fast as my hooves could take me. I continued running until I got to the CMC clubhouse. I don’t know what led me here but I was here now. The pain in my heart refused to stop ever since then like a constant thorn of never ending pain day and night, at school, I even stopped crusading to find a way to make it stop.
I found a way when I was looking around for something in Applejacks farm.
“Where is it?” I said looking for an object I needed when I came across some rope, not something I was looking for I was about to throw to the side when a thought came to me. Why not use the rope? I started to feel happy again, after those couple of days full of pain, it was going to disappear for good this time.
“Hey, Scootaloo what are you doing in here?” Appleblooms voice sounded behind me. I whipped around hastily hiding the rope behind me.
“Nothing. What are you doing in here?” I countered.
“Um, this is our barn,” Applebloom said slightly confused “I haven’t seen you around in awhile. What you been up to?” I weighed whether to not tell her or tell here.
“Don’t tell her. She will ruin your plans. You, want to see Rainbow again right?” a voice stated in my head.
“Nothing I’ve been up to nothing,” I told her bluntly, starting to walk out the rope hidden while I left the barn.
“But wait for Scoots what’s wrong?” Appleblooms voice called after me.
“Nothing! Leave me alone, we're not friends!” I yelled back at her as I ran off, no real direction in mind. Finally, I stopped at a tree, it was a nice tree. Perfect for what I was going to do. I started to tie the knot as if I had done this before.

“Applejack what's Scootaloo’s problem?” I asked wondering why she wanted to hide a piece of rope. What could be so secretive about a dumb rope that she couldn’t tell me about it?
“Well, what do ya mean?” Applejack asked as she laid in the shade taking a brief break from apple bucking.
“Well she was rooting around in the barn when i asked her what she was up to, she told me nothing,” I said, “She was obviously hiding a piece of rope behind her, what could be important about a dumb rope?” I asked looking up at Applejack only to see her looking at me with a deadly serious look.
“Applebloom, did you ask what she was going to do with it?” Applejack asked worry lighting her gaze.
“No, she told me we weren’t friends and ran off. Why is something wrong?” I asked still confused.
---[]---
“Yes, but I need ya to go inside I’ll…find Scootaloo alright?” I asked, more of told Applebloom.
“Alright Applejack,” the filly responded walking toward the house without question. Gritting my teeth I started toward the opposite side of the orchard, worried if Scootaloo was going to do what I think she is. Celestia, what do I tell Applebloom? I asked myself increasing my pace. You won’t have to, you’ll find Scootaloo and Applebloom won’t be exposed to this dark side of reality at such a young age.
I entered a clearing of which there were a couple throughout the orchard, just in time to see a little orange filly hanging on a rope from a tree in the center.

Author's Note
You don't have to follow this ending, i just thought it needed a bit more. So if you think it should end at How a Rainbow Dies that's fine by me. This Story took a little bit longer considering I changed the title and 'art' among other things 
Also, idea's are our most potent weapon that can lead to success or they can be the catalyst of our destruction.
