Moon Sugarby JinadanChaptersI'd hate to cause a RiftI'm SorryFeelingsI'd hate to cause a RiftMoon Sugar : I'd hate to cause a Rift Princess Celestia's sun was now suspended high above the clouds, and Twilight and Fluttershy were rambling around the Ponyville market square. Fluttershy wanted to get a fresh stock of carrots for her pets, and Twilight, needing a break from studying, decided to tag along. A few caravans and merchant ponies setting up their stores along their way caught the two ponies' attention. ‘’Hey, erm, Fluttershy? Let’s go see what those ponies are selling.’’ ‘’Erm.... okay.’’ There were all sorts of different colored potions and pouches. Most of them were potions Twilight already knew about, like your average stamina potion, for example. However there were a few unique potions that caught the unicorn's attention. "What's this?" Twilight asked and she picked a uniquely shaped vial of purple liquid. "It’s Sleeping tree sap ma’am. Straight out from the spigot of the sleeping tree. This baby will give you the strength of over 9000 colts." replied one of the merchants as he walked towards her. He was a handsome earth pony with a chestnut coat, and a yellow hourglass for a cutie mark. "I've never seen this potion before... Okay.. then what's in these pouches?" "It's moon sugar." The merchant pony leaned forward to her ear, and whispered. "Moon sugar..?" "You don't know? It's... Well.. Let's just say it's not your average sugar. Oh, here, this one's on the house." The merchant pony said in a sneaky manner, as he shoved a pouch towards Twilight. "Wow.. thanks? How much is one pouch?" "Only fifty-nine bits." "Fifty-nine bits!?" "Well, we have to smuggle this through caves if we want to sell it." "Okay... How much for the sleeping tree sap?" "Only eleven bits for that one." "I'll take two of those then." She levitated the saps into her saddlebags, and gave the merchant her bits. ‘’Pleasure doing business with ya. Oh, and you might want to put the sleeping tree sap in the fridge. It works best when it's chilled.’’ The merchant pony said with a smile as Twilight trotted away from their store, and Fluttershy followed suit. ‘’Erm.. Twilight, I don’t think those stuff looks very safe..’’ ‘’Don’t worry Fluttershy, I can handle it. After all, I’ve been trained in alchemy since I was a filly.’’ Twilight declared with a surge of confidence. ‘’Okay.. just.. be careful.’’ Fluttershy squealed in timidity, as usual. Fluttershy bought her carrots from a local vegetable store, and they continued to walk around for awhile more. Eventually they wished each other goodbye and parted ways, returning to their homes. Twilight was now alone at the basement of her tree house. The purple unicorn double checked the doors to see if it was locked shut, she definitely did not want any baby dragons to interrupt her experiments. The tree saps were placed carefully in her kitchen fridge ( Which was the only fridge ), and she decided that before conducting any experiments, she would see what the books could tell her first. Using her magic she dragged the book 'Alchemist 101' to her desk and started to research. Sleeping Tree Sap One of the rarest potions, it comes from the only Sleeping Tree in Equastria, a kilometer northwest from the Everfree forest. The sap is collected from a spigot on the sleeping tree, but the elephants guarding it makes that a life-threatening task. When drunk, it can stimulate a pony for hours, varying on their bodies. Despite being a potent narcotic, it is legal in Equastria. She flipped a few more pages, searching for the other product she got. Moon Sugar A grainy, refined powder grew from the canes of Fillydelphia's coasts. Used as a cooking spice, it has modest magical properties, and is also a strong narcotic, and is banned all over Equastria. When consumed, it can give ponies a high for up to a day. "Woah." As much as Twilight wanted to deny the fact, she had just did business with drug dealers. She decided since the narcotics she got was both rare and one of them illegal, she would not let this opportunity go to waste. She concluded that today she would test the moon sugar first, and test the tree saps tomorrow. The science pony began to prepare her alchemy set, and placed all her potions and equipment on the desk. Carefully, she sifted the precious powder from the pouch to an experiment dish. ‘‘It can’t be that bad.’’ Twilight thought to herself. She dipped her hoof in the sugar, and brought it near to her nose. Giving a huge sniff, it smelled like.. nothing. ‘’Hmmph.’’ Subconsciously, she licked the moon sugar off her hoof. ‘’Wow. It is so sweet.’’ Twilight mumbled to herself. Her eyes widened a second later at the realization she just consumed an illegal drug. ‘’Ohmygosh, ohmygosh, what’s going to happen to me?’’ Twilight was panicking now, she was hopping madly on her hooves, her mind totally blank on what to do. The moon sugar however, started to overtake her body. Twilight started to feel infinitely weak, making her collapse flat on the floor. Her vision started to slur, and everything was turning purple in color. The unicorn's brain was in a haze of endorphins, and she just felt like her whole body was melting, like butter on a hot stove. Waves and waves of pleasure flowed through her body, while she just laid there in her stimulated state of euphoria as the hours passed by... ‘’TWILIGHT!’’ Spike’s shout, in addition to the blatant banging on the door brought Twilight back to reality. The euphoric sensations were now mostly gone, she was covered in her own sweat, and a whole puddle of foamy saliva that leaked out of her mouth. The unicorn slowly got up, feeling horribly uncomfortable, and Spike banging the door unnecessarily was not helping at all. She felt fatigue all over her body, and her throat was completely dry. Dragging her lifeless body up the stairs, she opened the door, only to see his number one assistant with a genuinely concerned face. ‘’Twilight, are you okay?’’ Spike asked with a tone full of worry. Her hair was completely disheveled, and she just looked pathetically awful. ‘’How long have I been here?’’ ‘’You’ve locked yourself in there for a whole day already!’’ Twilight was uttered speechless in disbelief. She lifted her head towards the window, and it was night time. No way. I’ve been high for more than 24 hours? ‘’Is there anything I can help you with now?’’ inquired the little dragon. ‘’Nope, don’t disturb me, I’m need some rest now.’’ Twilight went to the kitchen, and quickly grabbed a glass using her hooves. Her body was far too weak to levitate any objects. She filled it with water and chugged it all down, giving her throat a glorious relief. The exhausted pony then forcefully carried herself upstairs to her bed, and slumped herself on it. She wished she could at least take a warm shower first, but her body protested in somnolence. The unicorn was now far too tired to fluctuate any thoughts, and it was not long before she dozed off into an uncomfortable but much needed sleep. Note : Before any misconceptions, yes, this is a Skyrim reference. I'm SorryMoon Sugar : I’m Sorry It was a warm evening in Equastria. Twilight Sparkle opened her eyes, and her vision slurred with black patches everywhere. She realized that she felt unusually clean, which was weird because she remembered going to bed in an uncomfortable sweaty mess. “Twilight! You’re finally awake!” Wait.. isn’t that.. Rarity? She felt a hoof touch her warm forehead. “Woah, Twilight, your head’s still really hot.” That voice... Rainbow Dash...? What’s going on? Her vision started to clear, and she saw four friends all looking at her with concerned faces. “What are you all doing here?” She uncomfortably forced the words out of her dried throat. “Sugarcube, you’ve been sleeping for two days straight.” 2 Days?! She just stared at Applejack in disbelief. Rarity immediately went to serve her a glass of warm water. Twilight drank it, relieving her throat. “Thanks.” “It’s okay. Twilight my darling, did anything happen to you?” “Erm.. nope.. I’m just really tired.” “I reckon’ somethings not right here. Nopony can sleep two days straight even if they wanted to!” Twilight’s heart started to beat fast. She looked at Fluttershy, who gave her a very guilty look. “I’m just.. really tired.. I need some rest.” Tired? You just slept for two days! Something is not right here. Thought Rainbow. “I think we should.. erm.. just let her rest...” Fluttershy said. “You guys can go first, I’ll look after Twilight.” Rainbow told the rest. “Twilight, if you ever need our help, just call us and we’ll always be there to help you.” Rarity gave her a warm, assuring smile. Twilight nodded, and the the three ponies left the house, leaving Rainbow and Twilight alone. “So.. Where’s Pinkie Pie?” Twilight cleared the awkward silence. “I don’t know. She claimed she had some important fondue to make.” “I see... Is Spike here?” “Nah, the Princess needed him in Canterlot. He left yesterday.” “Oh... Don’t you have work today?” “No Twi, its my off day today.” “Okay..” Twilight just laid on her bed. It was definitely hard to swallow all that happened. She took drugs, got high, slept for two days straight, and got her friends all worried for her. She felt utterly horrible. I took drugs. I’m a dirty pony. “Rainbow, would you still be my friend if I.. did something really bad?” “Of course! I’ll always be loyal to my friends. But did you do anything bad?” Rainbow’s curiosity flared up. Come on, Twilight. Just tell Rainbow. I’m sure she can help you. “I.. “ No, what if she leaves me? Or worse, what if she tells the royal guards? What if Princess Celestia knew? I’ll be totally screwed! Twilight just stopped her words there, her eyes watering a little. “It’s okay Twilight. You don’t have to tell me, but whatever it is, I will always be right behind your back.” At this, Rainbow gave her a comforting hug. Twilight felt so much relief and comfort, the troubles seemed to just melt away in her Rainbow’s hooves. Honestly, she did not want this to end. But Rainbow eventually let go after a while, and Twilight gave a warm smile to Rainbow. “Thanks...” “No problem, Twi” “Oh... Rainbow, I have a book you might like.” Twilight got off her bed, and trotted downstairs, and Rainbow followed her. She levitated a thick tome from her bookshelf to Rainbow. “Advanced Pegasus Aerodynamics...... by... Spitfire!?” Rainbow was completely stunned, she always had the impression that readers and writers were all just nerdy ponies. Never did she realize her idol Spitfire, was a writer. “Wanna read it together?” Rainbow nodded as she flew right beside her. Twilight flipped the book to the first page and began reading. They just read for hours and hours, it was the first time Rainbow ever drown herself in a book. Luna’s moon soon raised up, and Twilight lighted up a candles beside them using magic. They were now in a romantic orange hue surrounded by darkness. “Hey Dashie, you know.. sometimes I’ve always wished I was a pegasus pony.” Did Twilight just call me.. Dashie? Me Gusta... “I.. erm.. well, flying is awesome and all, but I’m sure being a unicorn is fun too.” Rainbow said, while trying to hide the blush from her cheeks. “It’s... not really that fun.” Rainbow did not really know how to reply to that. They just looked at each other. “Hey Twilight, can i get a drink from your fridge?” Rainbow broke the silence. “Sure. Now that you mention it, I am kinda thirsty.. Can you grab one for me too?” “Got it Twi” She zoomed to the kitchen, and opened the fridge. Carrot juice... nah.. Red Pegasus? Doesn’t look too healthy.. Oh.. What’s this? She took out the two purple vials, put them on the counter, and closed the fridge. Uncorking one of them using her mouth, she gave it a small whiff. Smells like maple syrup. Rainbow gave it a huge gulp. It was undeniably sweet and it went down cool and smooth. She drank a few more gulps before taking the other vial and flying back to Twilight. “Hey Twilight, what’s this? It tastes pretty good” Twilight looked up, and her jaw dropped in horror. “Oh my Celestia! Did you drink that?!” “Well, only half of it..” Twilight started to panic. If there was one thing worse then destroying her own life with drugs, it was making her friend’s life destroyed by the influence of it. Rainbow started to feel an invisible force lift her up from the ground, and she was getting dragged towards the staircase leading downstairs. She stared at Twilight, and realize that she was using her telekinesis to bring her downstairs. “Twilight! What’s going on?!” she said urgently, struggling to break free from her magic. “That was an untested potion! I don’t know what’s going to happen to you now!” By now they were both in the dark basement of the library. Twilight shut the door close, and dropped Rainbow off at a small pile of hay. By now, Rainbow’s heart was beating really fast and she was beginning to panic. “What’s going to happen to me now..” Her vision started to slur, and she felt herself getting heavier and heavier... “Rainbow.. I’m.. sorry..” Her horn now glowed a furious red. She have never done a collapse spell on a live subject before, but she had no choice now, it was either she let Rainbow wake up as if nothing happened, or let the tree sap do it’s job and get her addicted. She concentrated a while more, and shot a huge white light at her. At this, Rainbow felt a sharp pain hit her head as she blacked out. I’m so sorry Rainbow.. I’m doing this because.. I love you and I don’t want you to get hurt. FeelingsMoon Sugar : Feelings Ponyville shined brightly in Luna’s night. While most citizens of Ponyville were fast asleep at such a time; the two equine figures within the Ponyville Library were far from slumber. A cyan pegasus lie sprawled on her back in the basement, otherwise Twilight’s private experimenting area, her eyes finally open after a few minutes of struggle. I feel... so... tired... so.. weak... Dash finally regained consciousness. Twilight was beside her around a whole pile of books, her mane was disheveled, and she seemed to be struggling to push a spell out of her horn. She looked horribly jet lagged, and her face seemed to be stained with tears. “Twilight.. what.. happened to me...” She murmured in between heavy breathes. Twilight gasped as she looked back at Rainbow. “Twilight.. What happened to me!?” Her anger started to flare up. “I.. I..” Tears started to roll down her cheeks. “What?!” “That purple drink... It was a.... drug..” By now, she was sobbing uncontrollably. Everything made sense now. Twilight had consumed drugs, and now she had too. A surge of angry and confused emotions went through Rainbow. Why would Twilight do this to herself? Will this affect my flying? What if it ruins my dream of becoming a Wonderbolt? “You... you monster!” Those were the only words Rainbow could say. She lifted herself from the floor, feeling completely fatigued and weakly flew out of the basement and out of Twilight’s house. The lavender mare could only look at her friend just leave, and she felt utterly meaningless. Why am I crying? Stop it Rainbow! Stop crying! Rainbow just couldn’t control her tears, and all she wanted was just to return home to get some rest. For some reason, whether the thoughts were good or bad, she just couldn’t stop thinking about Twilight. I hate you so much Twilight.. You’re just a filthy pony. All the memories they had together, how they first met, how they defeated villains like Nightmare Moon and Discord, how they just spent time together and many others, were now scarred. Rainbow always knew Twilight was different from her other friends, and she always felt a little... happier around her. She loved the fact that she was a bookworm, which made her so unique compared to other ponies. But all these feelings and memories, were now washed down the drain. Do I.. like her? No.. Shut up. She’s disgusting. Oh Celestia. What in the hay is wrong with me. “Erm.. Rainbow.. are you okay?” Rainbow looked up, to see her shy pegasus friend with a saddle loaded with pet food on her back. “I just need some time alone..” Rainbow trotted off in a manner that made it clear that she didn't want Fluttershy to bother her. Fluttershy just stood there flabbergasted. Oh no.. It’s all my fault. If only I had stopped Twilight from buying those weird stuff, all these might not have happened. Rainbow finally reached the bottom of her cloudhouse. Using every bit of energy she had left, she launched into the sky, and on to the corridor of her house. She immediately regretted the sudden burst of speed, it caused her vision to splinter and whole body to become agonizingly cold. She was so drained now that she could not even walk on her hooves. Come on.. Just a little more... She tried to drag her lifeless body into her house, but failed. Her insides started to burn in agonizing protest. Her vision slurred, and soon she drifted out of consciousness. The wide variety of adorable critters would usually put a hearty smile on Fluttershy's face when she returns home. It was something she always looks forward to, her pets expressing their happiness every time their owner returns. But today was different, the animals didn’t seem to cheer her up. She entered her home with a huge gloomy look, and all her animals could only look at her, feeling bad for her. She unloaded the saddle and put the pet food on the floor. Angel ran up to her as usual, shrugging his arms, giving her a curious look. “Oh Angel, It’s all my fault. If only I had stopped Twilight, all these might not have happened.” Angel shrugged again, this time harder. “If only I stopped Twilight from buying those strange potions.. Then Twilight and Rainbow might have not gotten into all this trouble.” Fluttershy went into her bathroom and closed the door behind her, leaving a slightly irritated bunny. She turned on the bathtub, adjusting the temperature of the water to just the way she wanted. She got in, and she thought the warm bathe would calm her down, but it did not. He pointed to the door and gestured a fist repeatedly knocking his other hand. “You think I should do something about it?” He nodded his head. “But what if I only make matters worse for them..” Angel just crossed his arms. “Oh okay Angel... I’ll be back really soon, you wait here alright? He angrily pointed at the door and did the running man. “Oh. Right.” Fluttershy left her cottage and took off the ground. The night was now pitch dark, and only the sounds of crickets and owls filled Ponyville. The solemn darkness made flying hard for the timid pegasus. Fluttershy already had Rainbow's house in her sights, although it was still quite a distance away. All the lights are off.. Is she sleeping? Oh.. I hope she’s okay.. Fluttershy got closer and closer to her house, and she saw a cyan figure on the surface, and she hoped what she saw was not true, but as she got closer, the reality hit her. She widened her eyes at the horrible scene before her; Rainbow was as still as the grave, lying flat on her stomach, just outside her doorstep. “Oh no! Rainbow, wake up!” A horrible thought thrust its way into Fluttershy's mind. She placed one ear over Rainbow's chest and listened closely. Fluttershy heard what she was listening for. It was very faint, but the recognizable sound of a heartbeat worked its way up to her ear. She let out a huge sigh of relief. For a while back there she thought she had lost a lifelong friend. She knelt down and elevated the unconscious Rainbow Dash, adjusting her pegasus friend over her shoulder. “Hang on Rainbow.. I’ll get you some help.. Just hang on..” Rainbow's limp body hung off her shoulders, shaking slightly. She readied her wings, and took off the cloud surface. She was definitely not used to carrying another pony on her back while flying, and it made every flap of her wing energy draining. But she knew she couldn’t afford to let her tiredness affect her friend’s safety. She struggled to fly as hard as she could, her destination being the Ponyville Emergency centre. Of course! I'll always be loyal to my friends. But did you do anything bad? That sentence painfully repeated itself through Twilight’s head. The depressed unicorn had been bawling her eyes out for Celestia knows how long now. Rainbow claimed she would be loyal, yet again, she couldn't blame her. After all, Twilight was the one who screwed up, and now, it was time for her to pay the price. No one could understand her. No one could feel her pain. No one could help. She was alone. She slowly lifted herself up from the floor. She looked at her table, and the moon sugar was still there, nicely on the experiment dish. Three days, surprisingly no ants or mold. The small amount of white powder now had painful emotional bonds attached to it. Come on Twilight. Just take a snort. It’ll melt your troubles away! “No!” Twilight screamed, her voice echoing through the dark basement. It took her a long moment to realize she actually screaming at herself. She brought her head to her hooves and sobbed quietly for a long while. Just one snort. It’ll make you happy. “Shut up!” She screamed again. She was overwhelmed by her emotions now. She lifted herself up, and started to trot nearer and nearer to the Moon Sugar. What’s happening? Why am I walking towards that horrible thing? No.. Stop.. Stop Twilight.. Please, just stop... It was like her fleshly body was in control of her now. It was like somepony else was controlling her, Twilight just wanted to throw that horrible junk away, yet she couldn’t. A part of her just needed that sugar in her system and she just couldn’t stop going closer to the drug. I’m sorry Rainbow.. I’m sorry Princess Celestia.. I’m just a failure. I’m a weakling. She was facing the drug now. She dipped her hoof in it.. It was now just a few centimeters away from her mouth. Don’t do it Twilight. You know you are going to regret. All your friends will hate you forever. Tears were flowing freely now. She could not describe the tornado of emotions, it was an overload of anger, bitterness and fear. Her heart was beating so fast it felt like it could pop out of her chest anytime. I’m sorry. I have failed everypony. And I have failed myself. Twilight painstakingly shoved the small hoof-full of sugar in her mouth. Immediately, she collapsed onto the floor on her rump. She could only bawl her eyes out and groan at the horror she had just done. Oh Celestia. I’m a monster. I’m a bucking monster. Any regrets would have been too late now. The sugar started to get into her bloodstream. Soon, she melted into wonderland, her body literally giving wild spasms at the waves of pure, unadulterated pleasure that circulated her whole body. Woaaaahhhhh... I’m so higghhh now.. Haha... So high....

Me Gusta... “I.. erm.. well, flying is awesome and all, but I’m sure being a unicorn is fun too.” Rainbow said, while trying to hide the blush from her cheeks. “It’s... not really that fun.” Rainbow did not really know how to reply to that. They just looked at each other. “Hey Twilight, can i get a drink from your fridge?” Rainbow broke the silence. “Sure. Now that you mention it, I am kinda thirsty.. Can you grab one for me too?” “Got it Twi” She zoomed to the kitchen, and opened the fridge. Carrot juice... nah.. Red Pegasus? Doesn’t look too healthy.. Oh.. What’s this? She took out the two purple vials, put them on the counter, and closed the fridge. Uncorking one of them using her mouth, she gave it a small whiff. Smells like maple syrup. Rainbow gave it a huge gulp. It was undeniably sweet and it went down cool and smooth. She drank a few more gulps before taking the other vial and flying back to Twilight. “Hey Twilight, what’s this? It tastes pretty good” Twilight looked up, and her jaw dropped in horror. “Oh my Celestia! Did you drink that?!” “Well, only half of it..” Twilight started to panic. If there was one thing worse then destroying her own life with drugs, it was making her friend’s life destroyed by the influence of it. Rainbow started to feel an invisible force lift her up from the ground, and she was getting dragged towards the staircase leading downstairs. She stared at Twilight, and realize that she was using her telekinesis to bring her downstairs. “Twilight! What’s going on?!” she said urgently, struggling to break free from her magic. “That was an untested potion! I don’t know what’s going to happen to you now!” By now they were both in the dark basement of the library. Twilight shut the door close, and dropped Rainbow off at a small pile of hay. By now, Rainbow’s heart was beating really fast and she was beginning to panic. “What’s going to happen to me now..” Her vision started to slur, and she felt herself getting heavier and heavier... “Rainbow.. I’m.. sorry..” Her horn now glowed a furious red. She have never done a collapse spell on a live subject before, but she had no choice now, it was either she let Rainbow wake up as if nothing happened, or let the tree sap do it’s job and get her addicted. She concentrated a while more, and shot a huge white light at her. At this, Rainbow felt a sharp pain hit her head as she blacked out. I’m so sorry Rainbow.. I’m doing this because.. I love you and I don’t want you to get hurt.
FeelingsMoon Sugar : Feelings Ponyville shined brightly in Luna’s night. While most citizens of Ponyville were fast asleep at such a time; the two equine figures within the Ponyville Library were far from slumber. A cyan pegasus lie sprawled on her back in the basement, otherwise Twilight’s private experimenting area, her eyes finally open after a few minutes of struggle. I feel... so... tired... so.. weak... Dash finally regained consciousness. Twilight was beside her around a whole pile of books, her mane was disheveled, and she seemed to be struggling to push a spell out of her horn. She looked horribly jet lagged, and her face seemed to be stained with tears. “Twilight.. what.. happened to me...” She murmured in between heavy breathes. Twilight gasped as she looked back at Rainbow. “Twilight.. What happened to me!?” Her anger started to flare up. “I.. I..” Tears started to roll down her cheeks. “What?!” “That purple drink... It was a.... drug..” By now, she was sobbing uncontrollably. Everything made sense now. Twilight had consumed drugs, and now she had too. A surge of angry and confused emotions went through Rainbow. Why would Twilight do this to herself? Will this affect my flying? What if it ruins my dream of becoming a Wonderbolt? “You... you monster!” Those were the only words Rainbow could say. She lifted herself from the floor, feeling completely fatigued and weakly flew out of the basement and out of Twilight’s house. The lavender mare could only look at her friend just leave, and she felt utterly meaningless. Why am I crying? Stop it Rainbow! Stop crying! Rainbow just couldn’t control her tears, and all she wanted was just to return home to get some rest. For some reason, whether the thoughts were good or bad, she just couldn’t stop thinking about Twilight. I hate you so much Twilight.. You’re just a filthy pony. All the memories they had together, how they first met, how they defeated villains like Nightmare Moon and Discord, how they just spent time together and many others, were now scarred. Rainbow always knew Twilight was different from her other friends, and she always felt a little... happier around her. She loved the fact that she was a bookworm, which made her so unique compared to other ponies. But all these feelings and memories, were now washed down the drain. Do I.. like her? No.. Shut up. She’s disgusting. Oh Celestia. What in the hay is wrong with me. “Erm.. Rainbow.. are you okay?” Rainbow looked up, to see her shy pegasus friend with a saddle loaded with pet food on her back. “I just need some time alone..” Rainbow trotted off in a manner that made it clear that she didn't want Fluttershy to bother her. Fluttershy just stood there flabbergasted. Oh no.. It’s all my fault. If only I had stopped Twilight from buying those weird stuff, all these might not have happened. Rainbow finally reached the bottom of her cloudhouse. Using every bit of energy she had left, she launched into the sky, and on to the corridor of her house. She immediately regretted the sudden burst of speed, it caused her vision to splinter and whole body to become agonizingly cold. She was so drained now that she could not even walk on her hooves. Come on.. Just a little more... She tried to drag her lifeless body into her house, but failed. Her insides started to burn in agonizing protest. Her vision slurred, and soon she drifted out of consciousness. The wide variety of adorable critters would usually put a hearty smile on Fluttershy's face when she returns home. It was something she always looks forward to, her pets expressing their happiness every time their owner returns. But today was different, the animals didn’t seem to cheer her up. She entered her home with a huge gloomy look, and all her animals could only look at her, feeling bad for her. She unloaded the saddle and put the pet food on the floor. Angel ran up to her as usual, shrugging his arms, giving her a curious look. “Oh Angel, It’s all my fault. If only I had stopped Twilight, all these might not have happened.” Angel shrugged again, this time harder. “If only I stopped Twilight from buying those strange potions.. Then Twilight and Rainbow might have not gotten into all this trouble.” Fluttershy went into her bathroom and closed the door behind her, leaving a slightly irritated bunny. She turned on the bathtub, adjusting the temperature of the water to just the way she wanted. She got in, and she thought the warm bathe would calm her down, but it did not. He pointed to the door and gestured a fist repeatedly knocking his other hand. “You think I should do something about it?” He nodded his head. “But what if I only make matters worse for them..” Angel just crossed his arms. “Oh okay Angel... I’ll be back really soon, you wait here alright? He angrily pointed at the door and did the running man. “Oh. Right.” Fluttershy left her cottage and took off the ground. The night was now pitch dark, and only the sounds of crickets and owls filled Ponyville. The solemn darkness made flying hard for the timid pegasus. Fluttershy already had Rainbow's house in her sights, although it was still quite a distance away. All the lights are off.. Is she sleeping? Oh.. I hope she’s okay.. Fluttershy got closer and closer to her house, and she saw a cyan figure on the surface, and she hoped what she saw was not true, but as she got closer, the reality hit her. She widened her eyes at the horrible scene before her; Rainbow was as still as the grave, lying flat on her stomach, just outside her doorstep. “Oh no! Rainbow, wake up!” A horrible thought thrust its way into Fluttershy's mind. She placed one ear over Rainbow's chest and listened closely. Fluttershy heard what she was listening for. It was very faint, but the recognizable sound of a heartbeat worked its way up to her ear. She let out a huge sigh of relief. For a while back there she thought she had lost a lifelong friend. She knelt down and elevated the unconscious Rainbow Dash, adjusting her pegasus friend over her shoulder. “Hang on Rainbow.. I’ll get you some help.. Just hang on..” Rainbow's limp body hung off her shoulders, shaking slightly. She readied her wings, and took off the cloud surface. She was definitely not used to carrying another pony on her back while flying, and it made every flap of her wing energy draining. But she knew she couldn’t afford to let her tiredness affect her friend’s safety. She struggled to fly as hard as she could, her destination being the Ponyville Emergency centre. Of course! I'll always be loyal to my friends. But did you do anything bad? That sentence painfully repeated itself through Twilight’s head. The depressed unicorn had been bawling her eyes out for Celestia knows how long now. Rainbow claimed she would be loyal, yet again, she couldn't blame her. After all, Twilight was the one who screwed up, and now, it was time for her to pay the price. No one could understand her. No one could feel her pain. No one could help. She was alone. She slowly lifted herself up from the floor. She looked at her table, and the moon sugar was still there, nicely on the experiment dish. Three days, surprisingly no ants or mold. The small amount of white powder now had painful emotional bonds attached to it. Come on Twilight. Just take a snort. It’ll melt your troubles away! “No!” Twilight screamed, her voice echoing through the dark basement. It took her a long moment to realize she actually screaming at herself. She brought her head to her hooves and sobbed quietly for a long while. Just one snort. It’ll make you happy. “Shut up!” She screamed again. She was overwhelmed by her emotions now. She lifted herself up, and started to trot nearer and nearer to the Moon Sugar. What’s happening? Why am I walking towards that horrible thing? No.. Stop.. Stop Twilight.. Please, just stop... It was like her fleshly body was in control of her now. It was like somepony else was controlling her, Twilight just wanted to throw that horrible junk away, yet she couldn’t. A part of her just needed that sugar in her system and she just couldn’t stop going closer to the drug. I’m sorry Rainbow.. I’m sorry Princess Celestia.. I’m just a failure. I’m a weakling. She was facing the drug now. She dipped her hoof in it.. It was now just a few centimeters away from her mouth. Don’t do it Twilight. You know you are going to regret. All your friends will hate you forever. Tears were flowing freely now. She could not describe the tornado of emotions, it was an overload of anger, bitterness and fear. Her heart was beating so fast it felt like it could pop out of her chest anytime. I’m sorry. I have failed everypony. And I have failed myself. Twilight painstakingly shoved the small hoof-full of sugar in her mouth. Immediately, she collapsed onto the floor on her rump. She could only bawl her eyes out and groan at the horror she had just done. Oh Celestia. I’m a monster. I’m a bucking monster. Any regrets would have been too late now. The sugar started to get into her bloodstream. Soon, she melted into wonderland, her body literally giving wild spasms at the waves of pure, unadulterated pleasure that circulated her whole body. Woaaaahhhhh... I’m so higghhh now.. Haha... So high....
