Twilight was no longer a filly anymore at this time. She made friends in Ponyville and stayed there, but Princess Luna had returned. The best gift of all. Snowdrop’s time had come, she was dying. The nurse of the hallway led Twilight to Snowdrop’s room.

“Snowdrop?” Twilight softly called.

“Hey Twilight.” Snowdrop painfully said.

Snowdrop really didn’t look so good, her voice wasn’t so sweet anymore, and it lost its glow. And her fur color wasn’t light blue, it was more pale blue.

“What happened?” Twilight asked her.

“Just a heart attack and now I know that my time is almost up.” Snowdrop answered.

“I have one of your stars in my hoof. Make a final wish and I’ll do what I can to make it come true.”

“Ever since I was small, I’ve always wanted to see. But I’ve kept it away because I wanted to save it for the right time.”

“I’ll grant it.”

Twilight used her unicorn magic, lifting Snowdrop up a little bit.

Snowdrop gasped, “I can see! Twilight, you are so beautiful.”

“Thank you, now you can see until your time here is over.”

“Thank you Twilight. This is the best gift I have ever received. I don’t want to leave now. Having the ability to see, and seeing how beautiful things are. As much as I have missed.”

“You have never missed much, you’ve been the best friend since I came to the castle. You’ve been there, you are like a best friend that I simply just can’t explain. I love you more than anything.”

“But I have never seen anything until now.”

“It is okay. I knew that you thought that I was beautiful from the way I talked to you. And from what you’ve heard.”

Snowdrop smiled.

“Thank you Twilight. I love you and… that… will… never… change.” Snowdrop heaved.

The constant beeping went to a long drawn out beep, Snowdrop was gone.

“You’ve been my best friend ever.”

That winter Celestia and Luna released the star that she had made for the celebration long time ago. Many tears fell that day, they froze and made their own stars. It had to of been the saddest winter in Equestria. The star floated down to a small sapling on the ground, creating a small flower that bent down. 

Thank you my friend. For everything you gave. And every wish you never knew came true. Goodbye.
