   "Thought I was dead, didn't you!", Sweetie Drops looked mangled and torn up, her face was barely recognizable now.

"S-S-Sweetie Drops!", Twilight felt a mix of joy, fear, and disgust.

"You know, Chrysalis told me something, she said 'why do you fight for your city' when they don't fight back, you people leave agents like me for dead, now you pay the price, Jon!", Sweetie Drops smiled when she said this, it was a smile that hurt, the wood from the car still inside her face, she didn't remove it on purpose for this moment.

Twilight turned behind her and saw Jon charge up his horn, "Rainbow Dash! Look out!"

Too late, she was struck by a green beam, she was hurt, but still intact.

"You're going to regret doing that!", Exclaimed an angry Rainbow Dash.

She launched into the air, she was going to do a Sonic Rainboom.

   "Okay, ponies, we hold them off until Rainbow Dash is charged up, then we run!", orders Twilight.

"Let's kick some changeling flank! Again!"

Sweetie Drops charged onto Twilight and kicked her in the face, Twilight does not want to hurt Sweetie.

"You don't have to do this Drops!"

"Do what, this?"

She kicks Twilight again, even though she knows she won't hurt her

"Stop! You know you can't beat me, so why are you trying, you're better than this!", Twilight is trying to reason with her.

"Listen to me, I've had enough of me helping everypony out, and nopony helps me, you are an alicorn! You are the one Celestia praises! I'm going to make you feel what it's like to have something fast hit you head on!"

   Twilight forgot about Rainbow Dash's Sonic Rainboom, she looked around to find nopony else but her and Sweetie.

She's going to kill herself and put Twilight in a world of pain just to prove a point.

Twilight looked up, Rainbow Dash is coming in hot and fast.

She knows that it won't kill her, but it's going to hurt as much as getting hit in the face by a car.

'I can't believe she's making me do this, but fine Sweetie Drops, I'll feel the pain for you', thought Twilight to herself.

   She closed her eyes and waited for impact.

Her friends were fighting away from the blast radius.

Twilight was in the middle of it.

In ten seconds the Sonic Rainboom will kill the anger-filled Sweetie Drops, and hurt Twilight immensely.

'8 seconds left, I wonder how the pain will feel', Twilight thought.

   Sweetie Drops realized that Twilight isn't even struggling to get out, she can't believe she's going to feel the pain just for her.

So she whispers into Twilight's ear, "Go, before I change my mind!"

Twilight looks directly into Sweetie's eyes, "I could have left a long time before, but I won't, I'm going to miss you Sweetie Drops"

3 seconds left, they both give each other one last hug

1 second left, they stare directly into the Sonic Rainboom together.

*** -- 5 Days Later -- ***

   Twilight sat on the streets of the rainy Las Pegasus with the rest of her friends, they had just demolished the hotel in Saddle Arabia because of Rainbow Dash's Rainboom, and they were kicked out of the country. However, Sweetie Drops managed to survive because Twilight cast a spell at the last second, but just barely.

"Does anyone want a piece?", asked Rainbow Dash, holding a half eaten white choclate KitKat.

"Sorry darling, but the choclate is soaking wet because of this disastrous rain!", says Rarity, who may be the most uncomfortable out of all of them right now.

"Ok, we've gotta keep moving", says Twilight Sparkle with a tired sigh.

They move through the busy streets where carriages go by, the homeless beg, and the rich play on the slot machines.

"I hope those casino players lose all their money!", Twilight had learned from birth that betting was always bad news.

   The Green Sun was still illuminating the sky, giving the world the impression that Chrysalis was always watching them, always with them.

While they walked, they heard a screeching sound coming from the roundabout in front of them, a carriage had collided and crashed into another one forcefully.

"Hey, are those ponies all right?", asks Pinkie Pie nervously.

"Wait! Stop! Get behind the wall!", orders Twilight, who sees something is up.

They all hide behind a wall and lean to look at the crash site, there is a huge traffic jam because of the crash now.

"This isn't an accident, they crashed into them on purpose!", explains Twilight to her friends, still hiding behind the wall.

From one of the carriages, 3 changelings come out, and then later the driver, Chrysalis.
