Rainbow Dash POV

It was my first day in Soarin's house, and I was so nervous! Fleet and Wave sneaked my stuff in the house back to me, and Soarin put them in the luxurious guest room. I had never been so comfortable since I was born, in the hospital.

The door opened, and I saw Soarin's parents for the first time. They were shocked to see me in the house, but quickly welcomed me when I explained I can't go back. I don't dare.

I felt like home in here, even though it wasn't. I slept soundly for the first time in years, and had a happy dream about being a singing superstar.

The next morning, I changed to go to school as usual, and Soarin's dad said to me at breakfast."Soarin gave me a video of you singing. You are really talented, and could make an impact in the singing society. I'm interested in making business with you."

"What?! That would be awesome! OMG! That's been my dream for like forever!" I squealed.

He said,"Oh, and by the way, call me Clear. No need to be so formal in the house. Make yourself at home."

"Okay, Clear." I replied with a smirk, and the whole table laughed. I wish I could really belong to them. Even though I just knew them yesterday, but I feel like we knew from a past life.

Me and Soarin went to school in his limo. While driving, Soarin asked,"Like it here?"

"Yes! I feel so comfortable in here. Like I'm here since I was born." I replied casually.

He asked,"Would you like to be here forever?"

"WHAT? No! I still have my siblings!" I shouted.

Just then, we arrived at school ,and we got off the car.

Like in two seconds, we were surrounded by screaming fans and paparazzi.

"Soarin Skies! Is this your girlfriend?"

"Not fair! He's mine!"

"I love you more, Soarin!"

"What's the latest news on your love life, Soarin?"

OMG! I'm not his girlfriend!

Soarin calmly explained,"She's just a friend, Rainbow Dash. I was just taking her to school today."

The crowd dispersed.

I sighed,"Phew! Luckily you knew how to drive fans away."

"It doesn't work every time. They are very persistent." replied Soarin, as we walked up the staircase and through the main doors.

We headed to class together, and Pinkie and Rarity were like: I SHIP IT!

I facepalmed.

After some boring classes, it was finally freakin' break! Woo-hoo!

I was heading to the music room to play my guitar when someone blocked my way. I looked up and saw Lightning Dust and her cronies?!

WTF?

"Hey loser. Do you know you're worthless, and a freak?" said Lightning.

I said,"Excuse me, I'm not a mirror."

She was on fire (literally!).

"I know all about you. What people say behind your back when you're not paying attention. They say you're a show off, a self-centered brat who doesn't give a fuck about others and a stupid girl who gets everything wrong! HAHAHA!" interrupted Trixie.

Yeah, they're right.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, BRAIN?! STOP!

No! You're useless and you know it!

NO!

Meanwhile, the bullies started a chant,"FAILURE! FAILURE! FAILURE!..."

I can't take it anymore, so I just stood there and listened to their insults without protesting.

They got bored after a few minutes, and left me in the hallway, alone.

I went to the music room, took out my guitar, and sang my heart out:

Am I alone with the thoughts that I have?

I'm afraid that I'm scared of myself

Am I the only one to doubt who I am?

Wish I was someone else

Everytime I try to swim, it pulls me,

pulls me deeper down

Everytime I try to fly, it holds me,

holds me to the ground

It tells me I'm a freak,

drains me,

the monster inside of me

Freak

Save me

The enemy is inside of me

Would be easier to fight someone else

than the war I fight within

It's impossible to hide from yourself

Where do I begin?

Everytime I dare to dream it wakes me,

wakes me with a cry

Everytime I dare to love it hates me,

hates me 'til it dies

It tells me I'm a freak,

drains me,

the monster inside of me

Freak

Save me

The enemy is inside of me

Screaming, laughing, the voice is inside my head

Freak, silent echo inside my head

Love me, can you even love at all

show me, show me what I ought to know

Mirror, mirror mirror on the wall

tell me, tell me that I'm beautiful

It tells me I'm a freak,

drains me,

the monster inside of me

Freak

drains me

the monster inside of me

Freak

Save me

The enemy is inside of me

It tells me I'm a freak

I let out a deep breath, and sang another song:

Little girl terrified

She'd leave her room if only bruises would heal

A home is no place to hide

Her heart is breaking from the pain that she feels

Every day's the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts, she breaks, she hides

And tries to pray

She wonders why

Does anyone ever hear her when she cries

Today she's turning sixteen

Everyone singing, but she can't seem to smile

They never get past arms length

How could they act like everything is alright?

Pulling down her long sleeves

To cover all the memories that scars leave

She says, "maybe making me bleed

Will be the answer that could wash the slate clean"

Every day's the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts, she breaks, she hides

And tries to pray

She wonders why

Does anyone ever hear her when she cries

This is the dark before the dawn

The storm before the peace

Don't be afraid 'cause seasons change

And God is watching over you

He hears you

Every day's the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts, she breaks, she hides

And tries to pray

She'll be just fine

'Cause now he hears her when she cries

Every day's the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts, she breaks, she hides

And tries to pray

She'll be just fine

'Cause now I know he hears her when she cries

She'll be just fine

'Cause now I know he hears her when she cries...

I sighed, and put away my guitar, hearing the bell ring.

I went back to Math, and zoned out completely, doodling on a piece of paper.

After class, I checked the paper, and saw in shock I had made a detailed comic about bullying! In a lesson. Seriously.

I put that piece of paper in my locker.

To remind myself I can't let anyone down, or this is what I'll get.

A/N: This chapter is a bit sad, right?! But it feels so real. Because I am a victim of bullying. If you are being bullied right this minute, remember: Never give up. Giving up will only make them continue, so stand up for yourself, or no one will. You are beautiful, no matter what people say. Don't fake yourself just to seek approval. You are you, and you are special. I know it all. I had did unspeakable things to myself before, so no matter what are you facing, don't make the mistakes in life I made. Remember.

Bai!
