Author's Note

Before you read this, just know I don't plan to seek attention from this. I'm just rewriting an old story to show how much I've improved, and rewriting my character's background. Thank you, and enjoy the fanfic.

The Letter

To whom it may concern,

By the time you read this, I will be dead.

I know that you all love me so much, and care deeply, I wouldn’t trade that for anything. I have wonderful friends who mean the world to me, but many of you don’t know what I’ve gone through… You don’t see the darker sides of me.

Earlier this summer, I was sexually assaulted. A few of you knew about it, but I didn’t want to tell everyone. I wasn’t ready. This has caused me to have terrifying nightmares, and I just can’t take them anymore…

I can’t handle the voices, they just scream in my ears constantly… The memory, constantly flashing through my mind, the memory of HIM taking something away from me…

I’ve been trying to get help, but just couldn’t find the courage to, I don’t want anypony seeing me when I’m vulnerable, it just makes me feel weak… I never wanted to burden anypony… I’m weak… I let myself get raped by that MONSTER… I didn’t even fight back… Besides, even if I could get help, could I really trust them? Even then, I can’t get myself to open up about it, it’s just too horrifying…

So what’s the point in living if I just can’t handle the pain and trauma anymore…?

Please, take care of yourselves when I’m gone. I don’t want you to suffer because of me, none of this was anypony’s fault. It was all mine… I’m sorry it had to come to this….

Lilly dropped the letter, running frantically out the door, not bothering to close it behind her. She ran to warn the others.

She could only hope she wasn’t too late…
