Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Spike, and Applejack all sat around Pinkie Pie's bed. It had been two days since Rarity's rescue, and Pinkie was in a coma. The doctors had had to perform emergency heart surgery to save Pinkie's life, but she was still alive. There had been little talk about what had gone on down in the cellar of the rock farm after Rarity had been rescued, besides that Pinkie had confronted Rainbow, and ended up stabbing herself.
The sleepy group bolted awake as soon as Princess Celestia walked into the room. "Princess" Twilight said. "What are you doing here?" The princess looked around the room at all the ponies. "I came here because we have some news on Pinkie, and I would like to tell you all in person. I suggest you sit down." The five ponies and dragon all seated themselves, and waited for the princess to tell them the important news.
"I performed a brain scan on Pinkie Pie a few hours after the surgery. I found that Pinkie had been suffering from a very severe split personality complex for quite some time. That, coupled with her history, was what led to her actions I believe."
Rarity spoke up. "Wait, you said history. What history?" The princess looked at all the ponies. "She never told you?" This time it was Applejack. "Told us what?" Princess Celestia sighed. "When Pinkie Pie was young, she was abducted and tortured by a psychopathic pony. We managed to locate her before he did killed her, but she was permanently scarred. Before her abduction, she used to be a pegasus, but her captor ripped her wings off." Rainbow Dash gasped, and looked over at Pinkie Pie.
"But, if she was a pegasus, she would have been able to walk on clouds!" Rainbow said. The princess looked at Rainbow. "She could always walk on clouds, Rainbow, its just that she couldn't really get to them. Besides, I think she didn't want you all to know"
The group looked at Pinkie, who seemed so small and at peace while resting. "So, the only reason she did what she did, was because it had happened to her?" Fluttershy asked quietly. "We believe so" The princess said. "Excuse me though, I must be on my way, there is a lot of damage control I must attend to" And with that, the princess left.
The others stayed with Pinkie for a while after, but soon, they too left, till all that remained. "Hey AJ?" Rainbow asked. "Do you think she'll make it?" Applejack sighed, got up, and hugged Rainbow Dash. "Yeah, I think so sugarcube. Even if she does, life won't be the same for her. She gonna have to live with the fact that she went and killed a whole lot of ponies, something that she and the townsfolk won't let her forget." Rainbow Dash returned the hug, grateful for her friend. "Now, I gotta get goin, I need to help Big Mac with the harvest"
"Hey, I can help with that!" Rainbow Dash said pleasantly. Smiling the two ponies stood, and walked hoof in hoof to the door, where Rainbow Dash stopped. "Go on out to the front, I'll be right there" Applejack shrugged, and left Rainbow Dash in the room.
Rainbow turned and faced Pinkie Pie. Sighing, she approached Pinkie, leaned in, and kissed her on the forehead while saying "Pinkie Pie, despite all that you did to me�I forgive you" Rainbow then stood and just looked at her sleeping friend, who, unnoticed by Rainbow Dash, had just opened one of her eyes.
Pinkie kept her eyes closed until the people had left, meanwhile wondering where she was and how she got there. I didn't die! Pinkie thought, before she noticed something, something that made her want to jump up and scream for joy. The voices were gone. Smiling a bit, Pinkie Pie opened her eyes for the first time, and saw, directly in front of her, the most wonderful thing her eyes had ever seen: A beautiful rainbow.
After some serious searching by Spike, Twilight found a repairing spell (Surprise, surprise!) and fixed the broken pieces of the wing�s bones, thus meaning they could be reattached to her body.
She smiled as she flew gently up to the clouds. The freedom of being able to fly again gave a tingle down her body. She liked it, a lot.
However, her torture and horrible experiences would stay in her mind for good. But with time, and support from her friends, her dark moments would be pushed to the back of her mind, never to be thought of again.
