Who will take care of my animals? Who will take care of Angel? Oh, goodness, somepony needs to take care of them! Who will when I can't? Those poor little creatures won't be able to fend for themselves for very long without me. And there'll be no one left to feed them! Oh, why couldn't I have had just a few more hours to set them up with somepony who could care for them?

And my friends, too. They'll be so sad when I go away. All of them.

Applejack and Twilight are so strong, but even they'll be hurt when I go. That ache in your chest that makes you feel awful and won't go away no matter what you do: it's going to be with them. It's going to be with all of them for a very long time. Spike will feel it too, but at least he'll have a shoulder to cry on.

Rarity and I have been friends for so long, and she'll be devastated that she doesn't have a spa and gossip friend anymore. She'll probably hole herself up in her home, and nopony will be around to help get her back out. Who knows how long she'll stay in there all alone?

I hate it when Pinkie's mane goes flat, and she starts sulking and stops bouncing. I can barely recognize her when that happens! She becomes a different pony, one who's sad and angry and never laughs. She's not Pinkie anymore. And when I go, it'll be . . . it'll be all my fault.

Rainbow . . . She'll try to be "cool" about it, I know she will, but her heart will be breaking inside. We've just known each other for so long; I know she does this. She tries to be tough and callous on the outside, but she really cares so very much about all her friends. I don't even want to think about what would happen if her oldest friend was taken away!

All that pain, and it will be all my fault. Oh girls, I . . . I know I say it a lot, but I'm sorry! I hate causing my friends pain, but there's just no way that this won't. You girls are all so strong that I know you'll be okay, but . . . Everypony, I'm so, so sorry!
