Rainbow Dash was, to say the least, nervous. As she looked at the 4 ponies around her, her best friends, she teared up. She didn't want to tell them the truth. "They'll understand, right? They are my best friends" She thought, shaking violently.
"Um...the reason you all are here is because I wanted to tell you something...important." Rainbow Dash said, the ponies looking inquisitively at her. "I wanted to tell you that I have done something really, really...bad." She was stalling, not wanting to tell anybody what happened a month ago.
"Um...remember the fire that burnt down the 3 houses a month ago? It...it was my fault. It was an accident, but it was my fault." The 4 ponies sitting there, looking at her like she was some freak.
She supposed she was. Considering she let those people die, without even trying to help. She was just trying to practice her job, clearing the skies. If she hadn't kicked that dumb cloud, nothing would have happened.
Pinkie Pie wouldn't be dead.
"Rainbow Dash...how could you?" Fluttershy said, on the verge of tears. It's only natural for her to be sad, Pinkie was her best friend. "I was just trying to do my job, I had no idea kicking that cloud would make the lighting strike." Rainbow Dash said, lightly crying. "I...really..." she couldn't finish the sentence, she was crying to hard. She put her face down on the ground and let the week of bottled up sadness come out through her tears.
The 4 ponies walked away, each one crying a little. "How could you?", Fluttershy muttered as she walked away. Rainbow Dash just sat there for a while, crying. She let it all come out, tear by tear. After about an hour, she flew home, vision still blurry from the tears.

Fluttershy walked home with Applejack. "It's gonna be okay, sugercube. Ah'm sure it'll be okay." Applejack said, trying to comfort the grief ridden pegasus. "I-I k-k-know, Applejack. I-I-It's just..." Fluttershy started sobbing again. Applejack just put her hoof on the yellow ponies shoulder. "It'll be okay. It really will." Applejack said.

Rainbow Dash got the picture frame out of the 6 ponies. She looked them over, getting sadder as she looked at each mare. When she looked at Pinkie, she started sobbing again. The crying softened the sound of the glass breaking as it hit the floor.
