Rainbow Dash watched as Blade Cutter died, and then the blue alicorn soon after, but most of her attention was focused on the dark purple alicorn in front of her.

"You're the last one." Rainbow said coolly as she looked the alicorn in the eyes. "Nopony left to help you."

"You're wrong..." the alicorn said weakly. "There will be others to take my place in this forest. Others who will continue killing anyone foolish enough to enter this place."

"I'd like to believe you, but you're not very convincing." Rainbow dragged the immobile alicorn to a nearby tree, and propped her up against it. "Any last words?" she asked, bringing her back legs up and taking aim at the alicorn's head.

"No."

"Good." Rainbow bucked with all her strength, and heard a satisfying crunch as her hooves made contact with the alicorn's skull, sending bits of brain, bone, and blood everywhere.

It was finally over. Rainbow felt a sense of relief as she turned to face Vinyl and Night Rain, who came to a few minutes ago. Rainbow Dash smiled at her friends, and they smiled back.

"You done good Rainbow..." Night Rain said, patting her friend on the shoulder. "It's over, it's finally over."

"Yeah, I wish that I could say the same for all of our friends though..." Rainbow looked longingly at Spitfire's corpse, then to Blade Cutter's.

"I know."

The trio headed home. There was no point in staying there, and they had to get the bodies back to Ponyville for a proper funeral.

Upon their return home, the three friends were greeted by the townsfolk who saw them coming. A couple of nurses took away Spitfire and Blade Cutter's corpses. When asked what had happened, Night Rain was the one to explain, she knew that Rainbow had had enough of those memories for a lifetime, and she didn't want her friend to need to recount it all. After that, things got pretty much back to normal. Rainbow Dash and Night Rain went back to clearing the skies, and Vinyl went back to being a professional DJ. Dash kept her word to Spitfire and returned to the Wonderbolt academy, and everything seemed fine. Though they would never forget what had happened to Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Applejack, Spitfire and Blade Cutter, the three survivors could rest, knowing that nothing like that would happen, ever again.
