I have something very important to discuss with you” She asks. “Sure” You said hesitant >You tell her to wait so you could get ready, but instead you go to tell Carrot Top to wait for your return >You go with Twilight to a nearby coffee shop >The same one in which you talked to AJ some months ago >”Anon, do you know why I brought you here?” She asks seriously “I actually don’t know, is something wrong?” You ask legitimately concerned >”Yes, very wrong. You see a few months ago when I was giving the CMC their weekly lessons, they mentioned that they asked you about a mystery with Carrot Top’s tombstone” She says >”They told me that it looked as if Carrot Top had dug herself out the same night she was buried.” She continued >”And that you were nervous that day. So I investigated on the matter; it all comes to very ancient magic coming from Clover the Clever, Starwirl’s apprentice. She said “What do you mean? You asked already knowing where she was going >”He made a discovery about bipedal creatures concerning necromancy. This discovery states that, basically, male fluids from bipedal creatures, can resuscitate a creature from our species: “equus cogitare”. She explained >”But this revival is only temporary, as the resuscitated pony would need to feed on the male fluids to survive” >That makes sence, kind of >"I know about Carrot Top, Anon >>23060651 (You) >You froze in your seat “How?” you asked, it would be pointless to deny it at this point >”What the CMC told me, and the way you were acting at Carrot Top’s burial” She explained >”But you want to know the rest, Anon? “Explain” You said shocked >”This spell only works in the winter. Lower temperatures keep the body in good conditions, but when summer arrives, her body will rot in a matter of hours.” She said >It struck you as lightning >Not only did Twilight discover you without seeing Carrot Top, but she also told you that it wouldn’t last longer than a month >”Now, Anon, I know this is hard and that you actually have a relationship with Carrot Top, but you need to let her go now, otherwise it will hurt her more than ever.” She explained further >”I spent the last few months researching about this ancient magic and I ended up with a spell to reverse it” She said trying to console you >You were at loss of words >You were completely frozen in your seat >Twilight’s words still echoed in your head >”You must let her go now” “It will hurt her more than ever” “Only in winter” >”Do you understand, Anon?” She asked snapping you out of yourself “Yes Twilight” you sigh while saying this >You were sad, but it was necessary to do >”I won’t tell Applejack or anypony else for that matter, but I need you to make a decision” She said firmly “Give me one week, Twilight, just one more week” You said with tears in your eyes >”Right. Sorry, Anon, it has to be this way, it’s not only bad for her, but it’s also wrong in any perspective” She said >You left the cafeteria and walked home >>23060830 (You) >You felt defeated at this >So you just walked home and when you arrived, you hugged Carrot Top tightly >”Hey, Anon, Ah missed you too” Said Carrot Top smiling “We need to talk” You said >You explained the whole situation >”But Anon, Ah want to be with you!” She said crying “Me too, but it has to be this way, you can’t live in hotter environments” You said while hugging her >”B-but we’ll find a way! We always do!” she said still crying “I really wish we could” You said with Carrot Top still in your arms >Her flesh started to fall to the floor again, but this time some blood fell with it >Thus, a week passed by and the day came >It was still snowy and cold >It was around morning >You both arrived at the graveyard >Twilight was already there >There was the coffin you buried months ago, trying to hide Carrot Top’s tracks >It was wide open >”Are you ready?” Twilight asked >”We are” Carrot replied >”Then please get into the coffin to begin” Twilight said >She sat into the coffin slowly >”You can stand by her side, Anon, it won’t affect you in any way since you’re still alive” Said Twilight softly >You hurried up to to Carrot’s side and held her hooves with both of your hands >Twilight started talking in some language similar to latin >She started to cast the spell >>23061011 (You) >You held your head against hers and both closed your eyes >You could see through your closed eyes a white light which landed into Carrot Top >At that same moment you felt that her hooves stopped moving for good >You start crying uncontrollably, still holding her hooves with your eyes closed >You keep crying in the same position for a very long while >”A-Anon, I know it’s hard, but it was necessary” Twilight said. “B-but I can bring her back, right?” You said still holding her with your eyes closed >”No, Anon, you need to let her sleep, her time came and she needs her eternal rest” Said Twilight firmly >”The more time you spend with her, the faster she will rot and the more painful it will become for her in the end” Twilight said patting you on the back >”Not to mention that if someone catches you with her, you will be arrested on the spot and Carrot would be buried “alive” until she rots herself to full death” Twilight said >She was right, and that hurt more >You finally let go of her hooves and place them carefully in the coffin >You cross her hooves in her chest “I will always remember you , Carrot Top” you said softly >Twilight slowly closed the coffin with her magic and buried it back >You stopped crying, but the remaining of your tears froze with the coldness >”Let’s go, Anon, I’ll get you some coffee” She said while you walked alongside her >You looked back to the gravestone >”Here lies Golden Harvest, a devoted farm pony and a very lovable companion”
