"I'm always upset, and always angry, I just hide if from everyone." She said, snapping it in half and dropping it. As she did so, the red streak of color in her hair faded, and became more gray. Sunset gasped. Rainbow pulled out a green crayon, and held it up. "I've never been okay, mentally or physically." She said, more tears streaming down the sides of her face as she snapped that one in half too, dropping it.

As with the red, the green in her hair faded. She repeated this with every other color of the rainbow, the colors that made up who she was. The final crayon she pulled out was the blue one. Her vision was getting blurry, but she continued for the final color. "I am a sad, pathetic, mistake. I'm a lie, my life is a lie everything you think you know about me is a goddamn lie! IM NOT MEANT TO BE HERE!" She yelled, violently snapping the blue crayon in half.

But what happened next was more magical than anything, but in a way that didn't seem so good. As with the other colors in her hair, the blue faded as well. But then, the rest of  the color on her faded too, making her look gray. You could still tell what each color was supposed to be, but she was a lot less vibrant than she used to be. She cried and used her geode to run away.

"Rainbow wait!--oh no..." Sunset said. They looked at the broken pieces of crayon on the floor. "What are we going to do?" Fluttershy asked. "Okay, what in tarnation just happened here?" Applejack asked, looking at Sunset. "I feel like this is my fault....." she said. "Why do you think that?" Pinkie asked, sadly picking up a broken half of the purple crayon.

"I don't know if you noticed, but there was some serious magic going on just then. How else can you explain how her colors just faded? And it's my fault because there is only magic here, magic in all of us, because I stole Twilight's crown and brought it here." Sunset said, holding her head in her hands.

"For the last damn time, everyone forgives you for that, Sunset! Everyone who knows you has decided to leave that Fall Formal in the past! The magic you brought here has helped us save the day countless times!" Applejack argued. "But, if that was magic, do you think you can explain it? Seeing as how you're from a world of magic." Twilight asked. Sunset sighed.
