(tw: this is a cliffhanger chapter and i make the worst cliffhangers, so please. don't read if you hate my story/cliffhanger)

There she was, a dead Scootaloo. A gunshot in the head. All her life she was under Rainbow Dash's wing, and now she was lifeless. Rainbow didn't know what she was doing wrong at all. Soarin wanted to help her, but didn't. His masked self was fading subtly.

Soarin was walking up the stairs to Rainbow's room. He actually really liked her house, with it's shades of blue and white. It reminded him of a beach, to be honest.

"Okay, I need to seriously buck up. Celestia hates me, two people I loved are dead, my friends are cursed and the Elements of Harmony are hidden. What a messed up life." Rainbow paced around her bedroom quickly, helping herself to a cup of cold coffee. Soarin heard her as he stood behind the blue door. He walked in and sat down on the stool.

"Alright, Rainbow. Listen. You can't achieve anything if you freak out so much. Think. For example, when you were a part of the Wonderbolts flying team, were you freaked out? Yes. But you managed to stay calm enough to be with us. And me. So why are you freaking out now? You're gonna defeat Tirek, with or without me." He got up and sat down next to her.

"Wow. . . thanks, Soarin. But... I need your help finding the elements. You have some kinda sense that helps you find metals, right?"

"How did you know that? But yeah, I do. It helps me stay away because of my tetanus disease."

"Wow, um... okay, I'll need your help. So, we're going through Tirek's path up to his castle and leaving the school because Celestia and everyone who's still alive is gonna kill him while we're in hiding."

"Alright!"

"Also, you might need something to carry, like a bag? I'm messaging you a list of items to put in it, because the journey up isn't easy."

"Yeah, sure. I've gotta go, because I need to, pack, you know? Like pack my stuff, pack my things, pack my clot-"

"I get it, Soarin. Seeya later, alligator."

And Soarin was gone. From the room, of course.

In the middle of the night, Rainbow Dash had a terrible nightmare. She was crossing the bridge to Tirek's ancient castle, the winds intensified, and the bridge snapped in two. Soarin couldn't make it in time to save her from the snapped halves, and she fell into the deep ravine. As she fell to the ground, she was in so much pain, and she hit the ground and woke up.
