We find ourselves in Spike's room located in the crystal castle. The young teen looked at the Rarity doll he had since he was little. Such a finely crafted piece of work. He stared into it's button eyes.
'Is...is this what surrender is like?' He thought. "Maybe it's time I called it quits." He said as he turned his head to watch the downpour in Ponyville. He was a fairly tall dragon with purple scales and green spines on his body. Right now he wore a plain white t-shirt with black sweatpants since he didn't feel like going out.
Meanwhile in Canterlot...
Twilight Velvet sighed as she looked out her bedroom window while her husband Night Light was taking a nap in their bed after coming home from work early. She was a white furred unicorn with purple and white striped mane and tail. She was wearing a white blouse with some black stockings on she had planned to use to see if her husband would be in the mood.
"Is our spark dead Night Light?" she asked to her sleeping husband. His only response was mumbling in his sleep as Velvet sighed.
She turned to the family portrait. 'You and I began to drift apart after the kids moved out. I thought it was just work keeping you away, but...somewhere in my head, I knew our love was coming to an end.'
It also didn't help that after raising the kids, they barely went out for anything romantic like they use to.
'I wonder, if there's someone out there for everyone, could it be time to find another one? Something I have not tried yet?)" Velvet had never thought about cheating on her husband, but the fact that they might not be working out kept sticking with her.
Meanwhile back in Ponyville...
"Hey there Spike, big sis is back and I gotcha something from the play I was in." Said Princess Twilight Sparkle.
He didn't say anything and looked at the window with want but unsure of who he wants.
"Hello? You in there?" asked Twilight poking his shoulder. Giving up trying to get his attention, she just strutted off in her black raincoat and wet shoes.
'What's the point of even moving?' thought Spike leaning his head on one of his claws.
Then in Canterlot.
'What's the point of my marriage now at this point?' Velvet thought.
'I should just...move on.' They both simultaneously thought as lightning struck.
