The
emotional yellow pony was growing tired, rainbow was almost to the ground now.
As a last hope, she gave one more push. She could feel the air expanding around
her. It felt like she was slowing down, while in reality she was only gaining
more speed. She could see Rainbow nearly within her grasp now. She held her
breath has she made an attempt to grab her friend. The ground was right below
them, less than mile away now. She quickly wrapped herself around Rainbow and
made 90 degree turn before beginning to gradually climb. As she began to rise
into the air she came to realization how hard she had pushed herself and what
had been accomplished. She had created a Sonic Rainboom. Fluttershy began to
cry tears of awe. She thought seeing it was rare enough, but for her to
actually accomplish such a thing. She knew how Rainbow had felt when she
preformed her spectacular show. She looked down at her unconscious friend and was
beginning to see movement.
"Rainbow?"
She questioned. The bloody pony regained her thoughts quickly and bolted from
her saviors grasp, ready to re-enter battle.
"What
is...." Dash said in bewilderment. She glanced at the Fluttershy in awe,
realizing that the trail had previously ended at Fluttershy. The baffled
pegasus just hovered there with the most dazzled look on her face.
"Someone else... pulled it... off?" she muttered as she glanced down
to Fluttershy. The Young Flyers competition began to run through her mostly
empty mind. She became teary eyed as she recognized her friend.
"Fl...Fluttershy?" She mumbled
"Dashie?"
Fluttershy cried
"I...
I..." She failed to complete her sentence before getting a sour look on
her face and taking off out of site instantly.
"DASH
WAIT NO!!!!!" She bawled.

Rain
and the remaining four ponies sat there obedient to the Princess. The room was
still; not one of them spoke a word, and no one moved a muscle. Suddenly
Fluttershy burst into the room.
"GUYS!"
She shouted as she burst through the door.
"FLUTTERSHY!"
The four mares shouted in surprise
"Sugar
Cube" AJ said questioningly. "Where Rainbow?"
"That's
just it. She took off. She ran directly into a flock of Thunderbirds and...
"THUNDERBIRDS?!?!"
Twilight said in surprise. "There's no possibility that that's true th's
not possible"
"Oh
but Twilight..." Fluttershy stammered "That's just what I had said,
but They were there and they shocked her knocking her out of the sky" They
all gasped at once. "No. It's okay.
I flew after her and caught her" They all looked surprised "She came
through for a moment. She knew who I was... But then she took off again"
"OKAY
THAT'S IT! I have to do something"
"Rain
you can't move" Twilight stated "The Princess said you would only
hurt yourself if you moved"
"I
don't care" He murmured. "I'm not just gonna let this happen while I
sit here on my ass. I came prepared to die, and I'm damn sure going to fight
till the end." Without waiting for a response of approval he took off
running for the exit.
"RAIN
STOP!" Shouted Pinkie as she ran after him, followed by the others.

Scootaloo opened her eyes to
total darkness. She could feel that there was no blindfold or anything of the
sort. Was it that dark where she was, or had she been blinded? She stood up and
walked forward, but was instantly stopped by the metal bars of the cage she was
still in. She placed her face to the bars to figure out if she could see
something directly in front of her, but she was unsuccessful at seeing
anything.
"THEY
BLINDED ME!" She shrieked.
"Your
sightless nightmare is all in your mind" A deep mysterious and familiar
voice chimed "Don't worry young filly for you aren't blind"
"DISCORD!"
She shouted. Discord appeared in front of her making himself perfectly visible
to her, while everything around still remained invisible to her eyes.
"Yes.
It is I, Discord. Ruler of chaos and blah blah blah. Look I'm here to help you
get out of this"
"Why
would you ever help me?" She yelled at him.
"It's
quite simple actually. I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine"
"Of
course there would be a catch"
"Not
much of a catch really. It's something we both want. I want you to kill Rainbow
Dash" She thought to herself how Rainbow was ready to kill her. She hadn't
been notified of the changed conditions. She felt an unhealthy amount of her
consideration leaning to take the offer.
"And
why can't YOU kill her?"
"Now
where would the fun be in that? We need one of her friends to kill her. Someone
who she tried to kill. Someone... To show her payback"
"FORGET
IT! I may be ready to kill that bitch myself, but I would never help you. Who
knows what you'll do afterwards"
"OH
FINE HAVE IT YOUR WAY! I'm on a tight schedule right now. I wanted to have you do it with all your
emotions attached to you, but this is mostly a punishment for Rainbow, so
here" He snapped his fingers, placing Scootaloo under his control and
filling her with more and more hatred. "Now go on" He said as he
opened the cage and clicked his fingers again producing a bright glowing red
door within the center of the pitch black room. As she approached the door it
opened on its own, revealing a beautiful field lined with the corpses of fallen
soldiers, pegasi and ground ponies alike. She stepped into the portal and
continued on her way, anger clearly marked on her face, not noticing as the
door closed and disappeared behind her.
---------------------------------------------------------
Rainbow
crashed back into the Weather Factory. She began searching around the entire
facility as if trying to find something. As she approached the Rainbow Room she
kicked in the door. The machines had all been fixed. Everything was running
again. The spectra had been filled again with natural spectra. She could see
the steam pouring out from the pipes over head. There were no employees
working... Except one... Dr. Atmosphere
"Well
well..." He exclaimed "If it isn't my dear friend... Rainbow
Dash"
She
looked to him and immediately remembered who he was.
"DR.
ATMOSPHERE!!!" She shouted back. Had the Sonic Rainboom recovered her
memory? Or did Dr. Atmosphere just stand out in here memory that much?
