"Things aren't going to get any better Celestia!" a mysterious pony spoke from the darkest shadows "I know they aren't, but no pony is ready yet!" The tall alicorn spoke with anger. The pony in the shadows moved just a bit "I'm ready, Celestia." The pony's voice was solemn and calm. Celestia turned away from the shadows and the pony, "I don't care, who knows what would happen! Everything in the world of Equestria might come crumbling down, and do you think this only affect you? NO! do you think Rainbow Dash has no feelings if this happens? or what about every other pony? they have their own set of feelings that you cannot play around with!" The deceased princess screamed with her back still turned at the shadows. The pony grumbled something that Princess Celestia couldn't understand. The pony shot out of the shadows with tears running down their face, the pony ran over a hill until he stopped in a white cushioned area. The pony walked over to a picture that flew across the sky. The pony's reflection shone in the picture; it was a grey stallion with a darker grey mane and tail. The stallion whispered something as he turned to face another picture.

Four pictures sat in front of the stallion. The first picture was of the great battle and another stallion laid on the ground bleeding to death, a cyan colored mare bent her head back and screamed into the sky. The second picture was the same mare but with a different stallion, they were looking at a blue filly that was wrapped up in a hospital blanket. The third picture was a few ponies telling stories by a fire on a beach most of them were pegasus except the blue one who was an alicorn too. The last picture was of the future that never came, a future was a future the stallion always dreamed of but it never happened; the picture was the stallion and the blue mare holding a colt in their hooves. The stallion let tears drop from his eyes and fade into the fluffy material that he was standing on. "I've made up my mind, I'll let you do it. Whenever you want to leave just tell," The princess was interrupted as the stallion jumped up "Let's go now! It's finally time to get my life back on track!" He smiled happily as the princess used her magic to transport them to another area.

The stallion dropped onto the ground as Celestia floated down onto her hooves "Okay, they live over there. Now don't go barging in. Getting Rainbow Dash isn't the plan it simple-YOU CAN'T- she married to Flamedust and plus they aren't going to know it's you!" Princess Celestia told the stallion everything "Wait! I'm their friend they must remember me?" He looked to the ground as Celestia brought out a mirror "Not as an Alicorn!" The stallion's reflection showed the stallion but he was shorter and was now an alicorn. "Why!?" he was losted of words. An alicorn! what does this mare think I'm made of? he thought to himself. The princess rolled her eyes "Look, your mission is to protect the princess not Rainbow Dash! You couldn't try getting her back as a colt!" Celestia teased him as she faded in thin air.

The stallion sighed as he walked up to the palace doors and knocked as hard as he could. His mane was the same, his coat was the same, even his eye color was the same the only differences was that he was now an alicorn and that he didn't have a cutie mark. Rainbow Dash opened the door and looked down; she has grown quite a lot since the last few years. The stallion smiled as he went to speak. "Oh my! Raindrop Splash get a blanket, this poor colt looks so weak I'm surprised that he can stand!" Rainbow Dash picked him up and carried him upstairs to Sapphire's bedroom "Sapphire! we have a guest!" Rainbow Dash used her magic to open up the door. Sapphire sharply turned around to face her mother "Who is he?" she asked hatred burned in her eyes. "Sapphire, stop your little drama act! I don't know who he is, all I know is that we will take him in and care for him!" Rainbow Dash set him on Sapphire's bed as Raindrop Splash laid the blanket on him.

Princess Celestia watched all of this from her cloud above. The Princess sighed before something hit her like a rock. "I'm sorry... I'm not sure your ready but you said you were. I forgot to tell your parents!" Princess Celestia trotted off. The alicorn used her magic to write a quick message to the stallion's parents.

I have some horrible stuff to tell you about your son.

My name is Rainbow Dash, the new princess.

Your son died, peacefully.

You have my sorrow and my pain.

We were good friends and we've been through so much!

Everytime I think about him I can't help but cry.

Me as a mother myself could understand what your feeling.

I hope you two will be okay and I'm sorry.

The Princess didn't sign the note for a few reasons. He has been with me for so long! He's like my little colt! Celestia held back a tear as she looked up into the never-ending sky "I'll miss you but I hope I won't see you up here for a long time..." The white mare looked down as she walked away. Princess Celestia jolted her head up, and turned around "Stay safe... Cloud Gazer..."
