Lightning flashed. Thunder rolled, and raindrops of sorrow fell dramatically to the ground.
"Why.." Rainbow Dash cried out. "Why did you have to do that to me?"
"Do what, Rainbow? You're not making any sense," her good friend Twilight Sparkle asked.
"Mare Do Well...Why did you make an idiot out of me like that?" the pegasus asked.
"That we did not do, Rainbow Dash," Twilight explained. "We were trying to teach you a lesson of humility."
"What humility did I learn from it?" Rainbow shouted. "All I learnt that you are no good friend of mine!"
"Rainbow...please," Twilight said. She felt the conversation getting more intensive by the minute.
"...I thought you were my friends," Rainbow said, a tear rolling down her cheek.
"We always were," Twilight said.
"Well, NOT ANYMORE," Rainbow Dash said. She turned her back on her friends, and begun walking slowly out of Ponyville. "Maybe...maybe I should just live alone in the clouds forever..."
"Rainbow Dash, come to your senses!" the unicorn shouted to her. "We still love you for who you are!"
"Then why were you trying to humiliate me?" Rainbow Dash shouted back.
"We weren't!" Twilight said. "Well, in a sense, we were but -!"
"So you WERE trying to humiliate me!" Rainbow Dash said, turning around.
"We were doing it for YOUR sake," Twilight explained. "We didn't want you becoming a braggart like Trixie."
Rainbow didn't say anything. She stood there in the rain, deep in thought. After a while, she shouted, "...Then you're not my friend anymore!"
She ran off in the distance, leaving Twilight and the others deep in dismay.
