An Unknowable Destiny

"Hi, Sharp!"

"Hello, Violet!"

"How's your 'little' garden?"

"It's coming along pretty nicely! Had some trouble with some weeds, though."

"That explains all the dirt smudges..."

"How's racing?"

"It's really fun! I'm such a fast runner!"

"Well, duh! Your cutie mark basically says that you're as fast as a shooting star!"

"I see that you still don't have yours,"

"I don't really care. It doesn't seem that important to me,"

"Really? Your brother and sister always thought that it was important!"

"That was them, this is me. I don't really care as long as I'm living a good life,"

"That is so corny!"

"Guys! Guys!"

"What is it, Blossom?"

"There's a huge storm coming in from somewhere! It wasn't planned, so it could be dangerous!"

"So we should get to cover?"

"Yeah! I'm going to help the weather team!"

"I'll tell as many ponies as I can!"

"Are you sure? It could be dangerous, Razor!"

"Just get to safety! You too, Blossom! You're not part of the weather team!"

"But-"

"Go!"

I watched as the two of them ran for cover. I ran around, telling ponies to get to cover, that a storm was coming, that it could be dangerous.

"Sharp! You need to get to safety yourself!"

"It's more important to help other ponies, Blast!"

I ran around town, helping everypony I could possibly help.

"Sharp! Look out!"

My brother levitated me out of the way of a passing bolt of lightning.

"Cream! Get to safety!"

"Speak for yourself!"

He ran off towards the nearest shelter.

"Sharp, could you help me?"

I ran over to Raven and helped her cart her potion set to the shelter.

"Sharp, you really should stay here..."

"I need to make sure that everypony is safe!"

I ran back out into the storm and helped direct any stragglers towards the shelters. I was the only pony not in a shelter, so I ran towards the nearest one as fast as I could. It was hard because of the thunder, rain and lightning.

'I hope the other ponies are all safe!'

A huge clap of thunder shook the ground, and sent me flying away from the shelter.

'Got to get to the shelter!'

"Sharp! Where are you?"

"Violet, go to the shelter!"

"Not without you!"

I saw an orange bolt of lightning zooming towards Violet. I tried to call out to her, but the wind was too loud. I only had one option.

The lept towards Violet and knocked out of the way. The lightning bolt hit my side and I fell on to the ground.

"Sharp!"

I heard Violet's yells as I became more and more woozy.

'It looks like the storms is vanishing...'

"Guys! Sharp needs help! Now!"

"What happened?"

The voices of my friends became farther and farther away.

"She got hit by lightning?"

"Magic lightning?"

"Sharp! Are you okay?"

"I'm sorry, Sharp!"

"Sharp? Can you hear us? Sharp Grass!"

Their voices became indistinguishable as I blacked out.
