The void is a huge and horrible place. There is no walls, there is no floor, there is no ground. Just… just a void.

Some people see it white, some people see it black. I’ve always saw it like an endless white space, where you float without control.

But of course, I have control here. I can do more than just move myself where I want; mine is the power to go out if that’s my will. But I’ll always be here, in the void. Because, in the end, it’s where I belong.

Now I’m not alone here. For today, there are four mares with me, but they don’t know.

They are separated, it seems. Yeah, I can see it now. I’m alone, kilometers away from them, but I can see them, if I want. They are not asleep nor awoken. They’re just… dead.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash are separated. Each one is a thousand kilometers away from the other. Rarity and Twilight, on the other hand, are together.

The reason is simple. Twilight and Rarity were killed at the same time in the same place. Rainbow Dash and Applejack weren’t so lucky.

To die with your heart broken is far worse than sacrifice yourself for the good of a loved one… even if that sacrifice was proven useless later. The pegasus is, without any doubt, the one who needs me more than any other.

But I can’t decide what I should do. Maybe Rainbow Dash needs her friends? Maybe I should go and talk to Applejack first, and then use her to help the pegasus…

…

No. No, that wouldn’t be fair. Rainbow Dash is stronger than that. I shake my head and smile. I know my eyes are shining with something that seems determination, or nervousness, or happiness.

I know Rainbow Dash, I think. She’s a brave mare, and she has one of the strongest minds I’ve ever seen. But lately, she’s been passing through a lot of things. A somewhat fake love which only brings pain and nothing more. Manipulation. Suffering. And worst of all, she’s been insulted again and again.

And at one point, she has started to believe those insults. She’s not fragile or stupid. And she needs to know that. If I use Applejack, or Twilight, or even Rarity to cheer her up, that would be cheating. That would be like admitting she’s weak. And she’s not.

She doesn’t need any help. She only needs me… but that’s because without me, nothing can happen.

Applejack is stronger. She only needs to see Dashie. She’s like a mother looking for her foal, so using the pegasus to cheer her up is not so bad. And, about Rarity and Twilight… they are only confused, I’m pretty sure.

So, I’m going with Rainbow Dash right now. She’s broken. And I’m very good at fixing things… you need to, if you broke everything you touch.

And I move my fingers, and I concentrate, and then…

No. No, this is wrong. I can’t do things this way. Dashie needs me, but Applejack doesn’t deserve such a misdemeanor. And the same goes with Rarity and Twilight.

I’m not used to the Void yet. Here, I have no rules. I can go with Dash first… or I can go with all of them at the same time.

They need privacy, and I don’t want them to wait for me.

I divide in three bodies.

And then, I’m gone. I’m going to save those brave ponies.
