“I love you so much, girls!” exclaimed the lavender blue-maned alicorn with an honest grin on her face.

It didn´t take too much time for the pink pony, the white unicorn, the 2 pegasi and the orange western mare to hug their beloved friend tightly, who was seated next to the fire.

“Oooh, we love you too, Twilight!” said the pink pony with a joyful tone in her voice.

“CUT!" yelled a strong, male voice, "Ok, guys, this is how we end Season 14! It was an honor working with all of you and blah, blah, blah. See ya!”

An alarm rang somewhere in the room and suddenly, as if the alarm had had a negative effect on them, the 6 female equines quickly separated one from another. Meanwhile, a group of pegasi and unicorns, dressed in white T-shirts, started to dismantle the set and pack the cameras and microphones in big, wooden brown suitcases.

“Ugh! Finally!" yelled the white, purple-maned unicorn as she proceeded to light up a cigarette with her lighter and put it in her mouth, "You have no idea how sweaty all of you are! You could´ve ruined my beautiful mane!”

“Jesus fucking Christ!" said the blue pegasus with a rainbow-colored mane while she was cleaning the tattoo of a white cloud with an equally rainbow-colored thunder on her backside with a wet rag, "Is there anything you care about that it´s not your stupid mane?”

“How dare you to insult my mane?!" said the unicorn "Such blasphemy must be punished!”

“Ugh" thought the orange, orange, yellow-maned mare while removing the fake freckles from her cheeks, "Not this again.”

“Oh, yeah?!"said the pegasus using the same hostile tone, waving her frontal hooves while flying around in circles around the unicorn, "What ya gonna do, sweetie? Bang me to death like one of your fuckbuddies?”

“Oh, you´d love that, wouldn´t you Miss I´m Unsure about my Sexuality?" replied the unicorn angrily.

The yellow, light grayish rose-maned pegasus stepped in front of the 2 combatants, who were both ready to beat the living hell out of each other.

“Girls, please" she said with a voice that almost sounded like a whisper, "There´s no need to start an argument here. Just wait till we get outside and…”

“Get your fucking hooves out of me, you sick animal lover!” yelled the blue pegasus slapping her.

The pain made the yellow pegasus burst out into tears.

“Fluttershy!" yelled Twilight, who stopped trying to remove the plastic wings glued to her back to help her colleague, "Rainbow Dash! Why did you do that?!”

“Oh, my God!" said Rainbow Dash ashamed, "I….I´m sorry. I didn´t want to…"

“I´ll tell you why, dear" said the white unicorn with an egotistical tone, swinging the cigarette in the air while giving herself airs of grandeur, "She´s nothing more than a poor resentful lesbian!”

The magenta eyes of the blue pegasus stared at the white unicorn with contempt.

“Shut up, Rarity!" yelled Twilight in anger while trying to console Fluttershy, who was still crying, "You´re not helping! Applejack, give me a hoof here!”

“Oh, for the love of…" shouted the orange pony, putting her left hoof on her face, "Why do I always have to pass through this situation with you every day? Applejack, do this! Applejack, do that! I´m sick of it, Twilight! Sick!

“Hey!" said the tired pink horse with huge eye bags, "Calm down, everybody! We´re all gonna be super-duper fine!”

“No, Pinkie!" said Twilight, "We´re not going to be super-duper fine! Our show is over, and if we don´t get another job soon, we´ll end up begging on the…."

Twilight gasped. A huge, horrible revelation had suddenly hit her.

“OUR SHOW IS OVER!” she yelled in panic.

The young unicorn turned around and saw how a brown, black-maned mustang, dressed in a dark suit and tie, was leaving the room. Scared, she trotted with all her strengths until she reached him, not without leaving a grumpy Applejack to take care of a defenseless Fluttershy.

“Mr. Greedy" she said, "Where are you going?”

“The episode ended” said Greedy without even turning back to her.

“B-but" mumbled Twilight, "…You can´t leave us like this! This show was everything we had!”

“It was" he replied, "Past tense.”

“How can you be so insensible?" cried Twilight in anger, "You said you were going to make us all famous!”

“And I kept my word" said Greedy sharply, this time turning back to Twilight, "But now that this series has finally ended I have other projects in mind, and you, girls, are not my problem anymore. Have a good day and I wish all of you good luck!”

The old horse closed the door behind him, leaving the lavender mare behind. The room felt quieter than usual. Only the sobs of Fluttershy could be heard.

Rainbow Dash opened the other exit door, which was near the remains of the now dismantled set. The cold, deadly breeze of winter flooded the room.

“Well" she said, I get out of here. Anypon…Fuck! Anybody here wants to come with me?"

“I´m coming!" said Rarity firmly while trotting outside. She and the blue pegasus shared a brief, sidelong glance of hatred for a second, "I have more important things to do than crying over spilled milk!”

“I´m coming too" Pinkie Pie said, yawning and putting a fluffy green scarf around her neck, "Let´s see if they want to hire me in one of those stand-up nightclubs I´ve always heard about.”

“Girls!" yelled Twilight desperately, "Wait! Don´t go! It doesn´t have to end like this! We can still face this….”

But it was too late. Rainbow Dash let the door close behind her, producing a loud noise that made the building tremble.

“Together.”

And there they were the three ex-actresses: Alone, in a dark, empty room with only one light on and Fluttershy still sobbing. Everybody else had already left.

“It´s okay, Fluttershy" said Twilight comforting her work friend once more, "Everything is going to be alright. You´ll see.”

The darkness of the room started to get spooky. The wind roared against a semi-closed window on the roof.

“Am, Twilight" said Applejack, breaking the uncomfortable silence, "Can I stay in your house for just a couple of days? I don´t know if I told you before, but I couldn´t pay my debts last month and they bucked me out of my building yesterday.”

“Sure, AJ" sighed Twilight, "Whatever you need.”
