Shadow's POV

The void surrounded me.

I was no longer in reality, but instead where I felt peace. There was a sense of calmness that washed over my mind and my body. I didn't fell any emotions or anything. There was no sounds, only my breathing and my heart beating at a normal rate occupied the void.

I slowly got up and began to walk in a random direction. The walk began to bring back memories when I was back in my hometown and I would walk in and around the parks that laid around the island. Sometimes I would even go across islands on the pedestrian bridge that crossed over the Turquoise Creek, stared off into the mountains and hills. I would sit until sunset and make my way back to my home once it was dark and the islands lit up with bright lights.

I merely smiled at the memory. I didn't realized I closed my eyes and before I know it, I open to see me on the bridge, like I haven't left my hometown and traveled across seas to Equestria. I sat on the bridge, looking at the breathtaking sight of the mountain range and Union Junction off to the right. I wished for the moment to never end.

Back To Reality, 3rd POV

Rarity stood there, baffled at what just happened.

Rainbow's anger immediately vanished when she realized what she had done. Shadow was in the tub, unconscious and bleeding from the wound while Rarity stood shocked. It had been a solid 5 minutes where they didn't say a word until Rainbow spoke.

"W-what have I done?" Sadness endured her once again. Now she was sure he will never talk to him again. She wanted to look at Rarity and explain herself but, the fact was... she couldn't. Nothing could justify putting someone unconscious for their decisions. Nothing can be justified for the choice one makes. Nothing.

"Rainbow," Rarity said softly. "would you mind stepping out for a moment?"

She didn't say a word. She merely complied with her request and stepped out, down the stairs and into the living room.

A million thoughts were blasting through her mind. She couldn't believe what she had just did. Sure, it wasn't the first time this happened, but it certainly won't be her last. She did something one would never forgive for. Her actions were unjustifiable and just wrong in so many ways. It hurt her inside.

She wanted to cry but she couldn't. She wanted to leave, but her body refused. She wanted to run away as far away from here, but she wouldn't. There's no positive outcome to this situation. She could only wait for the inevitable.

Soon enough, Rarity walked down the stairs, clearly disappointed and angered by the situation she put herself in. There was no point in running, she can only face it.

"Rainbow, what you did was wrong." She said, "Never, in my entire life could I ever thought you would go this far to get him." Her voice was cracking up as tears began to trickle down her cheeks. "A-and to think I would consider you a friend?" Rainbow had to say something, but nothing came up.

Rarity continued, "And to think I actually trusted you. I don't know what to say. 'sniff' You simply amazed me Rainbow, in the worst ways possible. You've made some pretty dumb... and illogical solutions, but this... this is too far." Rainbow felt her heart tear apart at the words Rarity was saying. Never had she hear Rarity be this cruel and heartless. But... she caused it.

"Now," Rarity walked over to the door which was opened. "why don't you do me a favor and leave."

Rainbow didn't say anything. She walked over the front door slowly. Rarity spoke once more when Rainbow was outside. She stopped to listen.

"You know Rainbow, I used to see you as a friend. Now... I can't stand being around you."

And with that, she slammed the door shut, leaving Rainbow outside. Never in her life had she felt this much pain from her poor decisions she's made. She flew back to her house once more.

Rarity walked back to the bathroom, where she had Shadow still in the tub. She grabbed a first aid kit and began treating to his wound. Hopefully, he'll be awake again and well.

YAY, I'm not dead! I hope you didn't think that.

Anyways, this story has been held for too long and will now be worked on once again. Sorry for the shortness of this chapter. Next chapter will be longer and will feature additional characters. Until then, I'm out!
