Shattered inside

On the next day she had another meeting with her friends.

Another day like every other. It was never anything new for Rainbow Dash. She'd rather be at home with her sweet sweet blade, making all the hurt go away...

"Okey best we spread and everyone takes a part." Twilight said.

...but Applejack needed help on her farm. Walking to a tree like the others Dash sighed.

"You okey?" Twilight came from behind her. Dash turned her head to see her.

"I'm fine." She lied, again.

"You sure?"

"Why wouldn't I be?"

"Rainbow, I'm not stupid. I know that you've not been yourself. For a long time actually." She actually sounded concerned.

"Pff. Yeah sure. What, did you read that in a book?"

Twilight gave her a stern look at that remark.

"Look. We all know that you loved Tank a lot, and we are all here for you. But you have to let him go sooner or later."

Dash glared at her and looked away, bucked the tree and knocking a bunch of apples down.

"Rainbow. Please, talk to me." Twilight urged as she came nearer.

Dash looked away again. "Not like you'd understand anyways." She muttered.

"Huh?" Twilight had heard her.

"What." Snapped Dash as she picked up the apples from the ground.

"What do you mean I wouldn't understand?"

"Well, what do you think?"

"What are you talking about?! Why wouldn't I-" And it was at That exact moment that she saw it. And that could not be made unseen.

When Dash was picking up the apples and held them with her arm, they brushed against her fur. And Twilight saw the scars. The fresh scars that were just bleeding yesterday.

"Rainbow.." Twilight whispered as she watched Dash walk away.
