I don't want to live like this." >She presses a hoof against you to make sure you're where she thinks you are. >Her hoof is soft and warm. >She tries to direct her eyes where your own might be. >They used to be full of energy and passion. Now they're cold and lifeless. >Tears are beginning to roll down her cheeks, staining her dingy cyan fur. >"I can't do it to myself... I just can't. But Anon, you could." >She nuzzles your chest weakly. >"Please... Anon..." >You run a hand through her mane and she recoils slightly at your touch. >Dash's once vibrant mane has begun to fade and the strands feel coarse. >Her hair was like silk last time you felt it. >Your hand drops to her face and you wipe away the tears. >This is the first time you've seen her cry. >Rainbow leans forward when your hand finds it's place at her neck. >Slowly, numbly, you bring down your other hand, hesitation seizing you for a moment.   "I've got you covered, Rainbow." You say.   >You do your best to keep from looking the pathetic mare in the face as you begin to squeeze. >She begins to cough. >Harder. >Your arms tremble. >Harder. >She lets out a gurgling sound. >Harder. >With every ounce of strength you can muster you strangle her. >You didn't even realize you knocked Dash to the ground and are now on top of her with a vice grip on her neck. >She doesn't struggle against you for even a moment. >Suddenly, you feel it. >With one last heave... She's gone. >But you couldn't stop. >Your hands remained glued to her neck. >You let out a sob as you clench your hands tighter.   "I'm so sorry Rainbow... I'm so sorry..."
