The Darker Side

Everybody has a darker side, even the most loyal of people have one...

Rainbow Dash sat in front of a mirror, her posture straight, and the look on her face determined, with slight confusion. Her reflection sat and stared at her, the reflection's face looked shattered and heart broken, but most of all, it looked afraid. "What am I doing out here?" She asked her reflection.

"I don't know." Her reflection replied

"Why do I feel so... Ashamed?" She asked the reflection.

"That's how I feel every day." The reflection said, face cracking up into a smile that would have scared most ponies. "You see, I always felt powerless growing up, constantly getting picked on by bullies, never could amount to anything, all I could do was fly, I mean that was my cutiemark, flying. Yippie, what good will that do me in life? It was useless, and all through out my life, I admired the ones who made a living off of flying, The Wonderbolts. But the thing is, they were better than I could ever dream of, even the one that doesn't have a cutiemark in flying! So instead of feeling the humiliation and shame from people thinking my cutie mark is lame, or useless, I show off my cutie mark, to anypony, heck, I'll take the glory, even if I'm no good, even if I'm a failure. So you know what I do? I go to my bathroom, open my medicine cabnit, and use the needles in there. They make my wings strong, fast and durable." The reflection said, the smile gone.

"That's horrible, and wrong! Why would you do that?" Rainbow screamed at the mirror.

"Because, I'm you..." All of a sudden there was nothing, nothing other than the medicine cabnit and Rainbow Dash. She walked up to it, and began falling.

"Ouch" Dash got up slowly, rubbing her head. She had fallen out of bed. She looked ahead of her to see her bathroom, and debated. She walked over to the medicine cabnet, she opened it and reached in, grabing the needle and the anabolic steriod. She inserted the needle in the liquid, drawing it out, as always she made sure there were no air bubbles, and brought her wing up towards the needle, finding that special blood vein, she inserted it in, and let the needle drain. She started to feel powerful. It felt so good, only basic thoughts were running through her mind, but only one that was loud enough for it to be heard.

She felt powerful.

She felt powerful.

She felt powerful.

She felt powerful.

She felt powerful.

She felt powerful.

The feeling was so great, as her blood brought not only the ability of her muscles to strengthen faster, but also the adrenaline need for it, butthe good feelingalong with her smile was fading. But one thing was for sure.

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

She felt powerful

The feeling faded, and her smile was gone. She breathed out a sigh of sadness, and got to work on her daily exercise ruitine. She felt unsure of anything except one thing.

She felt powerless...
