Spike please take a letter?" silence followed the command from the velvet alicorn. Liking around her faithful assistant Spike wasn't anywhere to be seen. "He's probably reading up on his old favorite 'Power Pony' comics" she thought to herself. Looking in his room………he wasn't there nor the library. His bed was made up and the room clean.

"He must be at Rarity's shop, he always had a crush on her." However Twilight spent her day looking for the dragon. She felt almost like a mother to him every since the day she had gotten her cutie mark and she practically raised him. She asked all of friends who were still living. She found herself by late afternoon at the entrance of the tombs behind Canterlot. Walking in she first noticed two stone sacoffagus with the cutie marks of the sun and moon. These belonged to Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, on the left she saw the place where she laid to rest her brother and parents; Princess Cadence was laid there as well. On her right lay her parents.

Further in, lay her friends, the Pillars, Zecora and all of her friends. At the very of the first section of the tombs in an atrium lay a dragon turned to stone. Twilight saw an old mare at Pinkie Pie's place of rest, their cutie mark was a lime above a couple of stones; this was Limestone.

"It should've been Pinkie! Not you sis, if I ever find the creature who released those three terrors.............. I'm gonna crush them to gravel. "

"Lime Stone Pie?"

"Princess Twilight Sparkle" Limestone Acknowledged with a bow.

"I didn't know you were..........still around. I thought everycreature from the old days were gone, how's Marble?"

"A complete wreck, losing Pinkie almost killed her! How is it that all the best ones have to die first? I mean people with the best hearts die first, and we get stuck figuring life without their help?"

" I know what you mean, earlier I was wanting Spike to take a letter down...............spent my whole day searching for him. I went to all of our old hangout places. It never gets easier burying friends.................it's getting late now, take care of yourself."

Twilight sat at the long dining table in the dining hall, when suddenly a dark alicorn with a dark mane with a purple highlight stood beside her. Twilight Sparkle felt a sense of dread.
