Rainbow Dash and Sonic's Adventure

One of Princess Celestia's servants wrapped Rainbow Dash's injured head.

"Ow! Ow! Watch it sister!" she cried.

Shining Armor was being attended to by Twilight and Spike. After they were done, Shining Armor stood up and said,

"Twilie, Spike, I think you need to go. This might be very dangerous."

Twilight and Spike hesitantly left the castle

Sonic stood before Princess Celestia, who was sitting on her throne.

"I'm glad you decided to listen to reason." she sighed.

"What's going on? My world's fate might be hanging in the balance..." Sonic said.

"Just as I feared..." Princess Celestia muttered.

"What?" Sonic gulped.

"There is an ancient legend that tells of a mighty, evil being that once threatened our world. However, a hero emerged with the power of seven all-powerful emeralds. He defeated, and then sealed the evil away inside of a time warp of some sort, ensuring that his wrath would never be released upon the world again. But, a power-hungry pony with a demotic heart plotted that he was join the mysterious being. He wanted to do this to gain power and rule all of Equestria. He discovered that to awaken the evil, he must gain the seven emeralds and create a powerful portal, in which past and present meet. Before he could do this, however, my ancestors sealed him away in a tomb of crystal. It was also decided that our two worlds would be isolated from each other so these two would never meet. But, they said that not even their magic could stop the awakened evil being from penetrating the barrier. That is why I fear your presence." Princess Celestia explained gravely.

Sonic gasped.

"That must've been how I got here!"

"Have you confronted the evil?"

"No, I was coming home from my twentieth birthday party and next thing I know I was surrounded by a large darkness. I turned super to protect myself and next thing I knew I was knocked out."

Princess Celestia gasped.

"Please, Sonic, help us. If those two fuse together, we'll be done for. Your world and ours alike."

"Chill! He got stuck on the way here!"

"The ancients' barrier... it must be temporarily holding up against his power."

"How long do we have until he breaks through?"

"Two days, three at the most."

"Alright! We need to find the remaining six emeralds before he breaks that shield!"

Just as Sonic was about to zoom out the door, Princess Celestia stopped him.

"Sonic! You'll never be able to find all of those emeralds on your own. Rainbow Dash will go with you."

Rainbow Dash immediately flew to Sonic.

"Finally, a worthy adventure!" she smirked and shook the bandage from her head.

"This is a very serious 's no time for foolishness! Oh and, don't tell the other ponies your cause! I don't want them to worry!" Princess Celestia said urgently.

"How on the planet of Equestria do you find Chaos Emeralds?" Rainbow Dash asked Sonic as they walked through Ponyville.

"Easy, Chaos Emeralds can detect the other ones." Sonic replied as he examined his red emerald.

"Listen, Sonic." Rainbow Dash began, turning to him.

"Yes, Dashy?" Sonic teased as he turned to her.

Rainbow Dash was a bit irritated with the new nickname Sonic had given her.

"I think we got off on the wrong hoof. Truce?" she offered.

"Truce," Sonic nodded and shook hands/hooves with her.

Suddenly, the Chaos Emerald started flashing.

"It's coming from over there!" Sonic gasped as he pointed the emerald towards Applejack.

The country pony was wearing the green emerald around her neck in a rope necklace.

"How are we going to do this?" Sonic whispered.

"I have persuasion skills, trust me. Just act natural." Rainbow Dash replied quietly.

The two walked over to Applejack, who was talking to Rarity.

"Oh that necklace is just darling!" Rarity exclaimed.

"Thanks! Y'know, right after that thing crashed, I saw something shoot across the sky. I followed it and I saw this beautiful emerald there." Applejack explained in her country accent.

"May I give a suggestion? Lose the rope, string some pearls, and it'll look perfect!" Rarity said.

"Hey guys!" Rainbow Dash cut in.

"Well, if it isn't Rainbow Dash! Did you hear about that UFO crashing in the hills? It shook the entire town!" Applejack told her.

"Yeah! Who hasn't?" Rainbow Dash replied in her alert tone.

"Well, you've just had your head in the clouds so much that I didn't think you felt anything. Heh heh..." Applejack chuckled nervously.

Rainbow Dash was unamused.

"Oh my! Who's your friend? He just charming!" Rarity exclaimed.

"This is Sonic, Sonic the Hedgehog." Rainbow Dash introduced the hedgehog.

"Pleasure to meet you!" Sonic smiled.

Rarity blushed a little.

"Alright, Applejack. Let's just cut to the chase! Can I borrow your necklace?" Rainbow Dash asked quickly.

"Look, everybody loves the precious emerald that's in the necklace. I get it, it flashes sometimes and it's rare. But, I hear that the prize in tomorrow's race will be one of these emeralds." Applejack explained. "Hey! It's glowin' now!"

Sonic's face lit up like he had an idea.

"What other places does your necklace glow?"

"Well, every time I'm in Sweet Apple Acres it glows."

***

""Persuasion skills" my tail! If we're ever gonna get all seven in time, we need to work harder." Sonic mocked as they journeyed to the place had spoken of.

"Jeez! I'm not the one who lost them in the first place!" Rainbow Dash retorted.

"I didn't lose them! When I turn normal, the Chaos Emeralds split up! What can I say, I was knocked out!" Sonic growled.

"What do you mean by "turn normal?"" Rainbow Dash asked.

"When all seven Chaos Emeralds are gathered, my friends and I have the ability to turn into our ultimate forms. I was only in super when I turned normal, that's not my most powerful form." Sonic explained.

"Wow! I want to go super!" Rainbow Dash shouted.

"Unfortunately, I don't think ponies have the ability to go super." Sonic sighed.

"Why do you have to rain on my-" Rainbow Dash was interrupted by the glowing of Sonic's Chaos Emerald.

"There's the apple tree!" Sonic gasped.

The duo zoomed over to the tree.

"Wow! Look at those apples!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"Quit fooling around!" Sonic yelled.

He pin-pointed the emerald's location in a hole in the tree.

"Ah-ha! There you are!" he chuckled as he reached his hand in the hole.

Suddenly, he felt like something bit him, hard.

"Ow!" Sonic cried.

His sharp cry didn't affect Rainbow Dash's desire for the apple on the tree. She started shaking the branches, trying to get an apple off. A squirrel ran out of the hole with the blue Chaos Emerald in its hands. It squeaked angrily at Sonic before running up the tree to a branch. The squirrel started to chew on the emerald, probably thinking it was an acorn. Sonic attempted to take it again, yet, he just got the same reaction.

"Finally!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed as an apple fell off of the tree.

The apple hit the greedy squirrel right on the head, knocking him out. The squirrel fell out of the tree and it dropped the emerald.

"Aw yeah!" Sonic shouted triumphantly as he scooped the powerful emerald into his grasp. "Two down, five to go!"

"You're telling me!" Rainbow Dash said while chewing.

***

"Alright, let's think." Sonic said as he and Rainbow Dash zoomed through the hills, which the setting sun barely peeked out from behind them. "We have two, Applejack has one, and once we win the race, we'll have three."

"Wait, Sonic! There's something I have to tell-" Rainbow Dash was interrupted by a high-pitched scream. "That sounds like Rarity!"

You can best believe that Sonic and Rainbow Dash ran to Rarity's scream as fast as their speed would carry them. The vain pony was standing in the middle of a grassy field, she was staring at something.

"Rarity! Are you okay!?" Sonic asked urgently.

"I-I... I can't believe I actually found one!" she cried, holding up a shining, purple emerald.

"We'll never get that back..." Rainbow Dash muttered.

"Oh, this will make a most excellent necklace!" Rarity screeched in delight.

Before Sonic or Rainbow Dash could say anything, Rarity ran off. Sonic got ready to chase after her, but, Rainbow Dash just stopped him.

"It's no use, she's not gonna give it up." she sighed with her arms crossed.

"Hey! It's getting late!" Sonic exclaimed. "We need some rest for tomorrow's race!"

"About that-" Rainbow Dash was interrupted once again by the hedgehog lying on the ground, folding his arms behind his head, and saying his next words.

"Ah! The sunset! It's always such a beautiful thing..." Sonic muttered dreamily before closing his eyes.

Rainbow Dash lay down and folded her arms behind her head as well.

"Look, Sonic..." Rainbow Dash started.

Sonic didn't answer.

"Sonic!" she yelled.

The hedgehog stirred a bit, but didn't answer.

"Did you fall asleep?" Rainbow Dash giggled. "Well, I'm pretty tired too."

She stood up and nudged Sonic, he didn't wake up. She put her head to his chest to see if he was even still alive. Yes, but, she didn't take her head off because Sonic's body was warm. Rainbow Dash's body untensed as she lay down and closed her eyes. Sonic opened his eye a bit to look at the pony. He smiled, chuckled, and then fell back asleep.

***

The next morning, Rainbow Dash slowly woke up. When she found herself on Sonic's chest, she freaked out a little.

"Whoa!" Sonic shouted when he woke up abruptly.

"I-I... slept on your chest?" Rainbow Dash was in disbelief.

"Best day ever!" Pinkie Pie interrupted and bounced everywhere.

"What's so great about it?" Rainbow Dash snapped.

"The races are starting now!" Pinkie shouted.

In a split second, they were at the races.

"Well if it isn't Rainbow Dash!" the entry manager for the races smirked. "I thought we banned you after that little stunt you and Applejack pulled."

"What!?" Sonic growled.

"Heh heh... I tried to tell you." Rainbow Dash chuckled nervously and backed up.

"However, your friend here may enter. The prize will be one of those rare emeralds." the entry manager explained.

"Alright! Bring it on!" Sonic said determinedly.

"Name?" the entry manager asked with a sigh.

"Sonic, Sonic the Hedgehog!" Sonic replied in his signature way.

"You're entered!" after they walked away, the entry manager muttered to himself, "I don't get payed enough to do this."

"Welcome ladies and gentleponies! Today you will be witnessing one of the best races in the history of Ponyville! "Why is that?" you may ask. Well, all of the determined challengers are competing for one of the new, fabulous emeralds! These mysterious emeralds were previously discovered when the UFO crashed! Nobody knows if they're from an alien race, but, it's awfully beautiful. Now, without further ado, our challengers." the announcer explained. "First, we have Rarity!"

"Rarity!?" Rainbow Dash gasped from the audience. "She already has one!"

"One is never enough!" Rarity replied in her snooty tone.

Meanwhile...

"Princess Celestia!" Shining Armor said urgently. "Five Chaos Emeralds have been found!"

"That's wonderful." Princess Celestia replied calmly.

"But, only two have been obtained. Sonic and Rainbow Dash are at the races now trying to intercept the third one." Shining Armor said.

"Time is running out. Tomorrow will be too late. Where are the other two?" Princess Celestia asked.

"Two unconfirmed ponies have found them." Shining Armor reported.

"We cannot let the others know their power. We must leave it up to Sonic and Rainbow Dash to find them." Princess Celestia said gravely.

"Cadance and I will help!" Shining Armor said and then started to run out the door.

"Wait, this is their task. We must not interfere!" Princess Celestia stopped him.

"But, Princess-!"

"No, Rainbow Dash must do this."

Back at the races...

"And finally, Sonic the Hedgehog!" the announcer announced the final contestant.

"Bring it on!" Sonic taunted.

"Ready, set..." the announcer readied the contestants. "GO!"

As quick as a whip, Sonic zoomed to the finish line. The others didn't even get a chance to start!

"The winner is... Sonic the Hedgehog!" the announcer gasped.

The audience roared, Rainbow Dash cheered the loudest. Sonic was given a Chaos Emerald as a reward.

***

"That was quick!" Rainbow Dash said after the race.

"Yep! I'm pretty fast, aren't I, Dashy?" Sonic chuckled.

"Don't push it, pal!" Rainbow Dash growled.

Sonic started to juggle his three emeralds. Suddenly, Spike zoomed up to them.

"Mmm... rare." he said with a dreamy look on his face.

"Do what?" Sonic puzzled.

"I mean, er..." Spike exclaimed, snapping out of his trance. "Those emeralds look awfully tasty... I mean beautiful! Might I offer you something for them?"

"Beat it, shorty! You're not sinking you're teeth into these! We're on a mission!" Rainbow Dash said proudly.

"Mission? Of what sorts?" Spike asked curiously.

Sonic nudged Rainbow Dash and they both zoomed off at their fastest speed.

***

Both of the speeders stopped to rest on top of a hill, which perfectly displayed the setting sun.

"Why'd you tell him!?" Sonic shouted.

"I didn't mean to!" Rainbow Dash growled.

"If you screw up again, all of Ponyville will be in total chaos!" Sonic replied.

"You don't think I know that!? I wish you'd stop treating me like I'm an idiot!" Rainbow Dash screamed before tackling him, causing them to roll down the hill in a ball.

When they got to the bottom Sonic ended up on top of her. Their faces were very close together. When Sonic realized their awkward position, he got up off of her and sat down. He attempted to hide the slight blush on his muzzle.

"Hey, I'm sorry." Rainbow Dash apologized softly before sitting down next to him.

"It's... it's... totally fine." Sonic continued to blush and then tried to change the subject. "Oh my! The sunset's so amazing on Equestria."

"Ye-yeah!" Rainbow Dash stammered.

She turned her head towards Sonic, he returned the action. They brought their heads closer together until Sonic's nose touched Rainbow Dash's snout. Just as they closed their eyes to kiss...

"Fun, fun, fun! I want to have fun with you guys!" a high-pitched voice screeched.

Rainbow Dash and Sonic abruptly pulled away and looked at the owner of the voice. It was Pinkie, as bright-eyed and bushy-tailed as ever.

"We weren't having any fun!" Rainbow Dash snapped.

"But your lips almost touched! Your lips almost touched!" Pinkie bounced happily.

"Stop bouncing! Why are you even here!?" Rainbow Dash yelled.

Pinkie stopped bouncing and scratched her head.

"Why was I here? Oh yeah!" she started bouncing again. "Princess Celestia wanted you too!"

The two left Pinkie in the dust, trying to get to the castle as soon as possible.

***

Princess Celestia, Princess Cadance, and Shining Armor were waiting there for them.

"Sonic, Rainbow Dash! Just about the time you two ran off together, there was a break-in at the jewelry store! It had a Chaos Emerald in it!"
