The six mares continued to trot up through the corridors, lead by the prissy white unicorn and the apple farmer, up to a set of large brown doors with beautiful carvings, bearing a golden plaque. Inscribed on the plaque was,

Fluttershy fluttered over, In front of the group, and quietly knocked on the door. She gulped as she heard a smash from inside the room. She nervously looked over to her friends and the princesses.

"Yes? Who is it?" The mare called from inside. Her voice wavered slighty.

"It's us. Your friends, Rainbow Dash. We're here to see if you are okay." Fluttershy whispered. There was a long silence until the door clicked open. Slowly, the mares carefully trotted in. Shutting the door behind them.

As they entered the room, they noticed several large bookcases, a brown sofa with a coffee table, and a desk. Everything was neatly placed around the room, like the portraits of previous leaders. Luna noticed the names written on the frames all had the surname Dashery. Her aquamarine eyes wandered upon the faces of the painted ponies, glancing at the confident smiles of the previous assassins.

The mares stopped at the desk, that was covered in paperwork. They stared at the rainbow maned mare sitting upon a large, red cushioned, swivel chair. Her head was down as she read the pieces of paper in her hooves. Beside the piles of paper, was a small glass of brown liquid. On the floor, next to her desk was a shattered glass bottle. It's contents soaking into the floor.

"Rainbow?" Fluttershy gulped.

"What is it?" Rainbow Dash croaked, her head still down.

"Rainbow, we haven't seen you in two weeks. Please, just come home."

"I can't. I've got work to do. The Creed is debt." The pegasus murmured.

"How is it debt? Who are you taking money from?" Luna snorted. She couldn't believe something as ridiculous as the Creed in debt. It was the Assassins Creed for crying out loud.

"From your bucking Sister!! I borrowed money from her to sort the Creed out as we were low on supplies and the bucking mansion was in pieces after the Pegasi Lords attacked it!! And now, I'm getting hoarded by the taxpayers! Demanding the money back!" Rainbow growled. "The Creed doesn't get paid to do this. Sometimes we get hired, and we get a reward, but we don't do this for the money. The Creed doesn't receive any money, whatsoever from the oh mighty princess of the sun, unless I bloody beg!!" Rainbow Dash snapped, making the mares very uneasy.

"What do you mean by beg?" Cadence inquired, but was quickly interrupted by the loud mouth apple farmer.

"Enough with tha jibber-jabber! Rainbow, how are ya coping about Soarin?" Applejack blurted out, earning a load of scowls and a slap from a certain white unicorn.

As Applejack rubbed her sore cheek, there was a long silence. Nopony talked or moved. The sitting pegasus mare had her rainbow mane over her face, covering the fact that she was crying.

"Do not....speak his name." She whispered, holding back her sobs. Thousands of happy memories of the stallion exploded in her mind. Picnics, parties, fly arounds, days in, special nights, Hearts and Hooves days. It all came flooding into her mind.
She remembered stumbling upon the box in the drawer, three days after the wedding crisis. More of her tears fell as the memory played through her mind, of her opening the envelopes inside.

"Rainbow, dear. We all know that you are, very upset. But hiding away is not helping." Cadence hushed. Trying to calm the mare. The pretty pink alicorn saw the assassin's tears dripping onto the paperwork.

"Just go away." Rainbow croaked, pushing her hoof away and making the glass fall off the table. It smashed, beside the bottle, soaking the floor in the brown liquid.

"And drinking isn't helping either. Especially for your foal."

"What foal?" Rainbow coughed through her cries, clenching her teeth.

"Your foal, silly. Soarin's and your foal." Pinkie squeaked quietly.

"There....there is no foal..." The cyan pegasus sobbed.

"What ever do you mean?"

"I mean, there is no foal! No little filly or colt! No small bundle of joy! No little part of me!!" Rainbow shouted, throwing a white envelope at the ponies before her.

Princess Luna picked up the envelope with light blue aura, and pulled out the letter inside. Reading it aloud.

Dear Miss Rainbow Miriam Dashery,
The results of your last checkup have arrived, and I am so very sorry to inform you, but you are no longer bearing a foal. The results and symptoms show that your foal has deceased, you have experienced a miscarriage.
We are sorry for your loss.
Please return to the Ponyville Hospital for medication.

If you experience any other problems, please feel free to drop by.
Yours sincerely, Doctor Redheart.

As the princess read out the letter, the distraught mare broke out into a full blown sob. Wailing into her hooves.

The others just stood there, unable to say anything to help. A mare, their friend, has not only lost her husband-to-be, but her unborn child. The mare was a ready mother, but not, it was all thrown away. It hurt the girls to even think of the sorrow and distress their friend is going through.

"Oh, Rainbow." Fluttershy muttered, tears creeping up in her eyes. "We're so sorry."

"S-sorry for what? You did nothing!" Rainbow shouted, still crying in het hooves. Despite her change of heart, she was still distraught about her unborn child. She never got to see it. Never got to hold it and laugh with it. She never got to see it grow.

"How did this happen?" Cadence asked softly.

Rainbow Dash sighed before speaking. "Apparently, my body is too weak to support the foal and myself. I guess it's one of the many joys of being me." The mares looked up to their friend, who was dead inside. "Just go. Just leave me alone."

"Rainbow, ya need us. Ya need all of us." Applejack trotted up to the desk, trying to comfort her friend. But the elder assassin had none of it.

"Just go! Soarin's gone and so has everything else. You might as well go." She growled.

"But, Dash-"

"GO! And don't come back!!" Rainbow Dash yelled, slamming the door as the mares quickly trotted out. Rarity glanced upon a small wooden box before the assassin kicked them out, and quickly grabbed it with her aura before the door shut.

As they began to walk away, their hearts snapped as they heard their friend wailing inside.
Ponies nearby looked over in concern as they heard their leader cry, as her life crumbled away.

Rarity sighed as she lifted up the box, clicking it open, and hovering out the contents. Her large sapphire eyes opening wide and her mouth dropping open. She stopped walking with the others, who trotted away, as she read every word on the paper.
"Oh dear Rainbow Dash, why you? You don't need this." She croaked as her eyes scanned the other letters.
