Mr. and Mrs. Cake were both worried sick about Pinkie Pie. She stayed in her room all day and even refused to eat. Many of the ponies that came into Sugarcube Corner were disappointed to see Pinkie Pie wasn't out.

Inside of the party pony's room was a completely different pony. Her mane and tail were still deflated, her blue eyes were dull, and her pink coat looked slightly gray as she stared out of her bedroom window. She repeated Rainbow Dash's words in her mind, Pinkie, you didn't lose anypony.

Gummy crawled around at Pinkie's hooves, letting out small sighs and grunts. She looked down at the baby alligator and groaned. "Shut up!"

Starlight raced out of the library with a saddle bag full of books and papers. She was on her way to the Everfree Forest- to Zecora.

The ponies she had asked for help all let her down. Doctors and nurses were unable to help, nopony had the correct magic, other ponies had "morals". She knew Zecora would help her, whether she wanted to or not.

After about 45-minutes of running, the unicorn had reached her destination. She stood in front of Zecora's hut, catching her breath and reviewing her plan.

Ask about it, then if she refuses, threaten her. Her eyes darted back to her saddle bag before looking back at the hut. You can do this.

At this point, Fluttershy was terrified of Rarity. The once glamorous unicorn had completely lost her mind and never stopped working on the dress.

"R-Rarity, I made you some pancakes..." Fluttershy carried a plate of pancakes out to the white unicorn. She cautiously set the plate down on the table Rarity was working at and backed off. "I hope they're good..."

Rarity looked at the plate momentarily before turning back to her work. The dress was almost done and she was adding laces to the collar. Fluttershy was hesitant to walk back up to the insane pony, but she wanted to push the plate closer to Rarity.

It had been 3 days since she last ate and this worried Fluttershy even more. The meek pegasus wanted so much to help her friend's mental state, she truly did, but she was too scared to do much more than sit and watch.

Rainbow Dash was sitting on a cloud as she stared at the black clouds that had taken over a percentage of Cloudsdale. It was strange to her how everything was falling apart. She wanted to blame somepony, but she couldn't. Nothing made sense.

When did this all start? It started with a bully and a filly. When would it end? How would it end?...

I don't want to see it end...

She looked down at the town below. She took a deep breath and thought about what she was going to do. Without any hesitation, she closed her magenta eyes and jumped. She tumbled down to the ground and accepted the sweet embrace of death.
