Brotherhood

Rainbow Dash POV

I wish I could leave this hellhole.

No one even loves me, not even my own brother, and my other relatives are either not in Canterlot, or dead.

Sakura, my elder sister, died three years ago of cancer. Now, I live with my dad Bow Hothoof, and now, Rainbow Blitz.

My mum, Windy Whistles, is living somewhere else with my other brothers, Fire Streak, Lightning Streak, Wave Chill and Prism Bolt. I'm the youngest and only daughter in the family.

I wish mum was here...

The door of the classroom opened.

Soarin stepped in. From the sad look on his face, evidently he had heard everything.

"Dash...I never knew you were suffering so much, so let me help you. We can overcome this together." he said.

I turned away. He doesn't understand, and never will.

The stabbing pain in your heart when your blood brother curses you and wishes that you would die...you would want to die yourself.

I want to end it all sometimes, but my willpower keeps me surviving, even at the worst moments.

Yeah, I have a slight depression, but it's a secret.

No one, not even my friends, knows about it.

"Dash, listen. Please." said Soarin, interrupting me from my thoughts.

I turned to stare at him, and asked,"What do you want?"

"The past will haunt us forever, and always will. I have a secret past that I will tell you one day, and it's still haunting me. But, with the support of my friends, I managed to forgive and forget, and I hope you will be the same. The past is a part of us, and always will be. Without the past, there won't be a present, or a future. So believe me, I will help you." he said soothingly.

I nodded.

Yeah, I get what he's saying.

"Okay." I whispered.

Soarin walked me to the bathroom to clean up, and we headed to class together.
