Dealing with Depression- SoarinDash

We need to do Something!

-Princess Twilight POV-
-The Next Day-

I woke up feeling down in a way. Ever since Sunset Shimmer told me about how Rainbow reacted, I was doing my best to keep it from the rest of my friends, especially Rainbow Dash. Trixie changed thanks to Starlight Glimmer in this world. But as far as we know, Starlight Glimmer of the other world doesn't know the other girls so she wouldn't be there to change Trixie.

I did my normal morning routine before going to the dining hall where, to my surprise, saw all of the girls waiting for me. All of them. Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Starlight Glimmer, Spike, Trixie, and Rainbow Dash. “Um… what are you all doing here?” I asked in the kindest way possible.

“I think you know why.” Spike told me. “Ever since you went to visit your friends in the other world you've been acting different and we want to know why.”

“Yeah.” Rainbow Dash agreed, “And it seems to happen even more when I'm around. What the hay is going on Twi!”

I froze looking at all their sirius faces and I knew I wouldn't leave the room unless they get an answer. “If I told you, you wouldn't believe me.”

“Yes we will darling. Just let us know what's bothering you.” Rarity sounded so sincere but I knew she wouldn't understand.

“Girls. I'm serious. If I tell you then you'll think I'm crazy and ask how it's possible. It's probably better you don't know.”

Starlight then used her magic to bring me closer then looked me straight in the eye. “Listen Twilight. We're all worried about you and we want to help you. So tell us what's wrong or I'm gonna use a memory spell I made to get some answers.”

I knew I was stuck. I couldn't run and if I didn't tell them, The spell would reveal everything. I was stuck between in a rock and a hard place. I clearly only had one choice. “Fine. But it might be better if Trixie doesn't know.” what can I say? She'll freak if she finds out that the alternate version of herself was the main cause of it.

Trixie growled for a moment but after some persuasion, she agreed to step out as long as Starlight told her anything she felt she needed to know.

They put me on my throne and they all sat on theirs. Starlight was on the side of me that Spike wasn't. “Now please explain what in Tarnation is wrong Twilight.”

I took a deep breath as I tried to find a good way to explain it. I felt that if the rest of the girls knew than Rainbow should to, but I hoped her reaction wouldn't be heard by all of ponyville.

“Well. You see. Spike knows this already but. Sunset wrote me saying she really needed to talk in person. So since I was pretty bored anyway I went over only to find out something really shocking about the Rainbow Dash in the other world.”

They all gasped and Rainbow put her front hooves on the table, “What is it!?”

I took a shaky deep breath before attempting to tell them during every 2 second pause Rainbow spoke.

“Well, she…”

“What is it?”

“It turns out that…”

“Come on.”

“Well what I'm trying to say is…”

“You're scaring me Twi.”

“She's depressed.”

They were all silent before Rainbow burst out laughing. “Ok. Siriously. What's going on?”

“I'm telling the truth. Believe me, I'd never joke with something like this. That's why I wanted Trixie to leave because she's one of the main reasons she is in that world.”
