It all happened way too fast...
"Stein, Stein, STEIN! CALL A DOCTOR!"
...
Hardy entered the house, feeling an unpleasant atmosphere in it, and he entered into Pony's and Skye's room.
He asked for Skye and Stein to leave the room for a moment. They both did uneasily, and waited in the kitchen with hopes in their hearts.
The sun rays from the window were now shining down upon her lifeless body as she was lying in her bed and Hardy knew...
Sighing, he told the two of them to come back into the room, and Skye looked nervously at him.
"Well?" Skye questioned quickly and slightly nervously.
"I'm terribly sorry..." Hardy told them as calmly as he could and he looked towards the floor in guilt.
Both of their mouths had hung open in shock. It felt as if both of their worlds had crumbled, as if someone had punched them a million times in the chest, and both of their eyes trembled.
"NO! What are you saying? She can't... No, she's not.... She's still here! I know it!" Skye yelled loudly in anguish, trying to hold back tears, and trying to eliminate the pain.
He suddenly bent down to his wife's side, holding her hand, and whispered, "Come on, beautiful! Please wake up! Please... PLEASE WAKE UP!"
Stein's father suddenly had burst into tears and Stein did as well.
"M-M-M-Mom..." Stein whispered under his breath, his tears consuming him.
...
The next day there was now a funeral in Forget-Me-Not Valley...
Everyone was there, either sobbing or trying not to sob...
The funeral was held outside on the beach and all of the villagers sat down in chairs. Everyone was wearing black and all had frowns on their faces. The sky was rather gloomy, the animals even seemed unhappy, and more importantly, no one was happy.
Everyone was going to say one thing about her on the podium and her husband was going first.
He stood there, gulping, trying so hard to hide the pain, which he couldn't do.
Skye
"She was my best friend... She understood me and stayed by my side no matter what... I can't explain in words how much I loved her. She was such a great a person. A great hard worker she was and she was very intelligent, although at times oblivious, but that's what I love about her. I loved her cute smiles and beautiful voice and her lovely violet eyes and her laugh, and I just loved everything about her, and how we laughed together and-"he wiped away a few tears and continued to talk, "S-She loved a thief like me and she accepted me. I loved spending every single second with her and every time I looked at her, it was as if I was falling in love with her all over again. And... And..." tears were streaming down his face, and he said his last words, "She was and always will be, 'My Princess Of The Stars' "
Stein
"My mother was my best friend. She taught me just about everything about farming, and we were rather similar. I-I can't believe that she's....she's...she's...g-g-gone... I-It still feels like she is here, a-and I know she will always be watching me... I-I know she is... Mom, I love you..."
Stella
"I only came back to this valley, hearing about my mom... She was the coolest m-mom anyone could ever have and I was so lucky to e-ever have a mom like her... I regret all the mean things I-I've ever said to her in the past and I'm s-sorry... I'm sorry mom for being such a horrible daughter... I'm so sorry... I-I love you so much!"
