I scream, nothing else I can do I just scream. A few weeks ago Twilight became a princess and an alicorn. We all got our cutie marks switched and that's what got me thinking. Rarity (who got my cutie mark) wasn't trying to fly but do the weather. That really got me thinking, why was she doing the weather? I can't decide what my cutie mark really is about. Now it's gone, that's why I'm screaming. It just disappeared.

"Um, Rainbow? Are you okay? The girls sent me up to see what was wrong." I hear Fluttershy say but her voice was muffled though. Oh no. Fluttershy will freak. She can't know I lost my cutie mark. I walk over lock the door and peak out he window at her.

"Yeah I'm fine. Please go away. It's none of your guys business." Well that sounded a lot meaner then I meant for it to.

"Yeah okay. Goodbye I'll see you later." Wait, I could ask Applejack something. Out of all our friends she the last I think will freak out. I mean Rarity will probably faint, Twi would want do some crazy test or something like that, Pinkie would want throw a party, AJ would just be well... Honest.

"Wait, Fluttershy! Could you send AJ up? Ask Twi to do that spell on her so she can walk on clouds."

"Um, sure. Is that all Rainbow."

"Yeah. I'm sorry, I really am but this is something I really only want to tell her." Please understand I don't want anypony freaking out. Please?

"Oh, okay. I understand." I sigh. After about 30 seconds there's a quiet sigh of a out of breath pony then a loud knock on the door. Please don't freak out. Please?

"Rainbow? Can ah come in?" I unlock the door and back away.

"Yeah come on in." The door opens slowly.

"What is it sugar cube? Why were ya screamin?" She looks so concerned. I know I can trust her, all I need to do is show her.

"I-I lost my c-cutie..." I can't say it. Just show her. I point at my flank. "L-look."

She walks over to where I'm standing and looks at my now blank flank. She touches it to make sure it isn't some kind of joke, then she gasps. "Did it fall off or somethin'? Where did it go?" Did she just ask if my cutie mark fell off? Ha, they can fall off?

"I woke up and it was gone. They can fall off?" She shrugs.

"Don't know. Lets say it can. Anyway why do ya think it would leave?" I gulp.

"I can't decide if this is my fault, Raritys, or Twi's."

"Why?" Now is time for a very long story.

"You remember how Twilight switched our cutie marks?"

"I remember trying to make dresses, you laughing at 'Rarity help Applejack's trying to make dresses!'" We both laugh and I continue.

"Yeah, but forget that just the thought of you and making dresses is a fail or a practical joke. Anyway do you remember what Rarity was doing when she had my cutie mark?"

"Yeah she was movin them clouds around." I node.

"That's my point."

"What are you talking about sugar cube?" She's a mix of curious and confused.

"Isn't my special talent flying not weather?" It looks like realization slapped her across the face.

"Oh." She then freezes up. "Do you think you had the wrong cutie mark?"

"NO! I think my talent changed over time but not my cutie mark." She nodes in understanding. Then she gets an idea.

"Well I have ta go tell Applebloom and her friends somethin. Bye Rainbow!"

"Wait tell them what?" She looks at me with a evil grin.

"That the cutie mark crusaders got themselves a new member." Freak. I spread my wings and pin her to the cloud. Or at least try to. I spread them but they don't do anything.

"NO NO NO NO NO NO NNNNNOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!"
