Regret part 5: the truth (preview)

"The...Truth..." Rarity thought as a grimace slowly formed across her face."What in Equestria is that suppose to mean?!"

"...It's not a very hard concept to grasp darling."The Shadow said as it rolled it's glow red eyes." It's the truth not Rocket science."

Rarity's eye widened in fear as she stared at the shadow.
"Ho-how did you...did you just...."

" I swear that fall must've given you brain damage or something"The Shadow scoffed."because you certainly seem to be getting dumber by the second....then again..." The Shadow Rarity placed a hoof to her chin." You never were all that smart to begin with."

"HOW DARE YOU!" Rarity's rage erupted as she pounced at the shadow, but to her despair she simply fell through it and landed hard on her side.

. "Yo-you can read my mind...ho-how is that possible..." Rarity said in a whispery tone."wh-what are you...."

The Shadow let out a sigh of disgust and placed a hoove on her forehead.
"We already went through this song and dance...what two minutes ago.... " Shadow Rarity chuckled to herself,dropping her hoof back to the ground then moved closer to Rarity." I'm you...or did you forget that already?"

"No!"Rarity said quickly."What are you really? You look like me....you almost sound like me but you certainly are not me..."

" Then what do think I am Rarity? " The Shadow asked as it's glowing red eyes faded back to normal."Am I a demon? A changeling perhaps? Or maybe I'm just a figment of your imagination...come to life because you've finally snapped...."The shadow chuckled to itself as it's eyes locked onto Rarity's."What am I Rarity?What.Am.I? "
