I can't wait to show Lightning Dust around Ponyville. We could get some cider and hang out at Sugar Cube Corner. I fly over The Wonder Bolt Academy arena and go to her house. I knock on her door made of clouds. There is no answer.

"Lightning Dust, are you in there?" I ask. There's no response. She better not have gone without me. I push the door open. A table is tipped over and there is blood smeared on the walls. I swallow the lump in my throat and follow the trail of blood to her bedroom. I see a lump under her covers. I take a few steps back. I can't bring myself to move the blanket to see what's underneath. What the hoof happened in here? Murder, no doubt. I take a deep breath and pull the blanket off the mattress with my teeth. My jaw drops and the blanket falls on the floor. Lightning Dust lies lifelessly on her bed with a large slash mark on her throat. Her teal colored coat is drenched in blood. Fear grips my racing heart. I scream so loud that Spit Fire and Soarin come rushing inside her dorm. They watch helplessly as I throw up on the floor.

"Lightning Dust! What happened?" Spit Fire asks. Soarin stares at my blood stained feathers. Do they think it's me?

"I didn't do it!" I shriek. The taste of vomit still lingers in my mouth.

"I know." Spit Fire says. How does she know? Could she have been the pony who killed her? She seemed pretty mad at her last night, but so did Pinkie. Soarin puts his hoof on my trembling shoulder. I fly away as fast as I ever flew. I can't cry. Not now. Not in front of the Wonderbolts.

There's only one pony I know who could find out who killed her, and that's Sprinklejinx.
