Rainbows Are For Fillyfoolers: Chapter 10a: Alternate Ending, Hope Never Fails
###This is the alternate ending. It starts right when Rainbow says Fuck it.
Rainbow stood in the living room of her house. Now, she was in tears, ready for the endless darkness of death.
She flew up to the beam holding up the cieling, and tied a double not with a rope around it. She came back down and tied a noose on the other end.
She grabbed a stool.
She picked up the sign she brought up.
She scrawled, with a paint brush and red paint, the words "Happy now?"
She stood on the stool, on her hind legs, and slipped the noose around her neck.
"Cruel, is what life is," she said aloud.
She kicked the stool away.
She felt like she was having her head ripped off, her neck was in so much pain until...
The world just started to fade. Like a movie.
She started to remember something.
'So this is what it feels like to fall asleep...'
She blacked out.
She felt like she was dreaming. A floaty feeling, and then she heard the absense of something.
She could no longer hear the ringing of her ears, that sound, that one note that is always playing, along with the high pitched buzz... they had gone.
It was as if somepony had turned off a washing machine after living all their life with it in the background.
Then, she started to stop percieving sight.
She tried to match what she was experiencing with something she could describe visually, but there was nothing to see. She could not describe it, for it was like listening to a song and watching a completely different scenareo, they were not related, and there was nothing to associate the experience with, she could only think in emotions. She could not understand the meaning or value of sense. She could feel confusion, she could feel angst, but she could not think about why she felt so.
The last sense to go was her hearing. All sounds were erased from her perception. She no longer knew what it meant to listen.
Then, she started to loose sentience.
All of her recognition faded away, and she was a languageless point, an instinctual sensed being, with only the knowledge of how to be consiously aware of her own awareness.
Then everything flooded back. Like a dam breaking, all of the things she knew how to do and see and feel came rushing back.
But when she opened her eyes, she saw something extraordinary.
Everything.
She saw all the colors, every single one, all in one viewpoint. She saw the colors beyond red green and blue, she saw the color of i, the color of infinity, the color of infinitessimality.
She had no restricted view. She could see all around her in one big sphere, everything at once. She could hear everything, she could hear beyond sound, she could hear soul, energy, and all that was existing.
Then, she saw all her love and happiness in one thing.
Applejack stood on a hill. She had been waiting.
Around her neck, she wore a driftwood necklace. It read "Forever" on the pendant. Rainbow gasped.
"No matter how far apart we are,"
"I can't believe I found you,"
"I'll always love you for who you are,"
"...I'll never leave without you."
