After an explosion of temper, Apple Bloom flees the family home to be alone. Fortunately for her, her big sister is wise enough to know it would be a bad time to be by herself. The two sisters talk about life, and loss, and filling the empty hole left inside when someone you love leaves you behind.

Meanwhile, two dense but well-meaning pegasi try to figure out the best way to cheer up their marefriends.

Chapter one was written for a speed writing contest over at Quills and Sofas. The theme of the contest was 'Love', with the prompts 'You Promised' or 'Unafraid'. Come join us for the writing fun!
