The way Spike looked at me, is one I'll never forget. It was when I told him that he was in charge. We went to the movies and we snuck dog treats and chocolate flavoured ice-cream. Then we met up with my ex-friends and played crazy computer games. A whole while later, he napped. He's gonna wake up late tomorrow. That was part of the deal.

I go to school, worrying. There's just not enough people. But, today, at 1:30, the Shadowbolts are coming to our school for the welcoming handshake thingy. It's the thing that happens after the competitions. I'll do it then.

First class is math. I'm good at math, I know. Oh, look, I got my maths test back. A+, 100%. What did I expect? Next class. Geography. Ugggggggh, that's on the other side of the building. Better get there. What the hell?! We have to write a five letter essay about mountains. History. No teacher! Ok, usually with my free periods I read. Sometimes I do homework, and others I colour stuff in.

Shadow bolts are here. We're standing outside. Everybody except vice principal Luna is outside. Now to let the poison gas release. Here goes nothing. Spikes with Fluttershy and the rest of my ex-friends.

I'm running. So is everyone else. But so many people have already been knocked out. It's over. I get away. I turn around. I recognize so many people. My ex-friends, the Shadow bolts, both principal dame Cadance, and random Crystal Preppers and CHSs. Theyre lying on the ground, their dead status clear. But Spike. He's choking.

The way Spike looked at me, is one I'll never forget.

Author's Note

Almost done. I think I'll just have one more chapter.
