Karma

Sudden silence fell upon Bubble Berry and Rainbow Blitz. Both knew that something abnormal going on, but they didn't know how to face it. They turned their situation into a game, but this was serious. They had to figure out how it all happened. The more they thought about the position they were in, the more confused and scared they got. With every passing minute they thought of all the possibilities of what might happen to them.

'We might be stuck like this.' 'How will we ever get out of this one?' 'How did this even happen to us?' They were at a loss of words and filled with emotions until Rainbow Blitz spoke up.

"H-hey, um, Bubble Berry, what do you think we should do now?" Rainbow Blitz asked.

"Well we could.... hey, you don't think that Twilight will come now do you?" Berry worried.

"I doubt it I'm sure that party went on long into the night." Rainbow Blitz said leaning against the couch.

Their hearts stopped once again as the doorbell went off, sending a chill down their spines. The bell rang again, ringing in their ears. All they could do was stare at the door without moving a muscle. It rang again and again never to be answered because behind that door was Twilight, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack. Some of the most important ponies of their lives and they couldn't even see or talk to them. That was the truth and undeniable fact that they couldn't see them. At least not the way they were now, and maybe they wouldn't be able to see them ever again.

"Pinkie Pie, we got to get out of here!" Rainbow Blitz whispered using Berry's real name. "There's a back door we can go through to get down."

Bubble nodded and they made their way to the back of the house. They heard the door open in the living room. Silently, he opened up the back door. They went out the door quickly and closed it. They jumped off the cloud.

Bubble Berry felt hooves grabbing him and right before they hit the ground Rainbow pulled them up and flew them into the trees.

The four ponies entered the house and searched the house for their friends. They were nowhere to be found, so they left the house and went back down to Ponyville.

They began to wonder where their friends were and what they were doing.

"Where could they be?" Twilight pondered.

"I'm sure they're fine. Probably just headed to Sugarcube Corner for a mornin' snack. Must have been real hungry 'cause they haven't eaten in quite a while," Applejack said with a reassuring smile.

"I agree, Rainbow Dash doesn't stay at her house for very long. Pinkie Pie always gets a treat in the morning before she bakes cupcakes for Mr. and Mrs. Cake," Rarity added.

"No, they would have left a note or came to us before they did anything. Something must have happened," Twilight continued pacing.

"Twilight's right, we would have seen them around town," Fluttershy added with a worried look. "This isn't like Rainbow Dash. We always see her flying after she wakes up."

"I see what you mean, sugarcube. Maybe we should look for them," Applejack suggested.

"Then it's settled. We'll meet at Sugarcube Corner In 20 minutes and start looking for them there."

Bubble Berry and Rainbow Blitz kept their heads down underneath the bushes and watched their friends. They couldn't tell what they were saying, but once the coast was clear, they crawled out of their hiding spots.

"Hey Pinkie, I think we should go eat. I mean I know it's taking a big risk going into town, but I'm really hungry," Blitz pleaded as his stomach let out a loud grumble.

"Don't you have food at your house?" Bubble questioned.

"I don't have time to buy food from the local market. Plus, that's boring, having to wait in lines and ask people where things are."

"Alright, fine, but we're going to Sugarcube Corner!"

"Fine with me, but I have a couple things to pick up at the market."

They started down the path leading to the middle of town. As they got closer to town, they started to hear the familiar commotion of Ponyville's market place.

It was welcoming and familiar to them, but they themselves were unrecognizable to everypony that they knew. The noises grew louder and they could see tons of stands selling all sorts of items.

"Okay, wait here. I just need to grab a few things, don't go anywhere. Alright?" Rainbow Blitz asked.

"Okie dokie loki!" Bubble responded.

"Listen, for the next couple of days, we have to go by our new identities as 'Rainbow Blitz and Bubble Berry'. I know that it'll be weird, but we just have to figure out how this happened to us. Hopefully we can get through this and change back, but for now this is what we got to do," Rainbow said seriously.

"Alright! I'll stay right here, don't worry!" Blitz rolled his eyes and disappeared into the crowd.

Rainbow made his way through each stand, until a familiar buzzing sound came from behind him. He turned around and saw Scootaloo on her scooter. Coming straight at him.

Scootaloo crashed into him and her scooter went flying. Rainbow was airborne, and before he even realized it, he went after the scooter. He caught it right before it hit the ground but started to lose his balance and somersaulted, landing it perfectly.

He flicked his bangs out of his face and smirked. 'Awesome.'

"Whoa, that was awesome!" Scootaloo shrieked with glee. "That was so cool, you caught my scooter while you were spinning in the air and did a somersault and landed perfectly! How did you do that?!"

Blitz decided to played it cool to mask his fear of her realizing who he really was, and hoped he'd seem normal and wouldn't raise any questions. "Well kid, you gotta be able to recover quickly and with ease. I learned that in the Wonderbolts Academy." He looked up at the sky confidently watching the clouds and noted how perfect the weather was. Then looked at Scootaloo who looked at him deeply. "What?" He said, uncomfortable.

"You know, you look just like a pony I know. Do you happen to be related to a mare named Rainbow Dash?" Scootaloo examined him.

He started to panic a little bit. "Uh yes I'm her brother, Rainbow Blitz!" He said, recalling the name Bubble Berry had given him.

"I didn't know Rainbow Dash had a brother!" Scootaloo exclaimed in shock.

"Yeah I live in... Cloudsdale." Rainbow Blitz stammered. He couldn't take this for much longer he knew he was about to break.

"No way! That's awesome." She perked up, ecstatic. "Are you visiting your sister?"

"My sister?..." Blitz mumbled "Oh uh no she's out of town and I came here to house sit for her. Me and my good friend Bubble Berry. Actually I realy have to get going now but nice to meet you Scootaloo!" Talking about himself felt strange.

"Uh, how do you know my name?" Scootaloo raised her eyebrow.

"Oh um well my sister has told me about you before. So anyways gotta dash! I mean blitz!" Rainbow Blitz ran back towards the middle of the market.

'Oh crap, I did it again this is the second time today! First with Derpy, but she din't say anything, and now Scootaloo is probably suspicious. Aw man, this really sucks.' He spotted his friend standing in the middle of the square. Once Bubble Berry saw his friend rushing over to him he immediately ran towards him to see what was going on.

"What happened? You look like you just saw a ghost!" Bubble exclaimed while Blitz caught his breath. "Well, did you?! Did you?!"

"No, Bubble, I didn't see a ghost! Can we get out of here, please?"

They followed a route going through the back alleys of the stores and shops. Blitz's head was spinning and he started to have a nervous breakdown.

"Fine, but tell me what happened!" Berry said, seeing his friend's distress and trying to calm his down.

"Scootaloo ran into me with her scooter, and I accidentally said 'nice meeting you Scootaloo' as I was leaving. Then she asked me 'How do you know my name?' and I panicked and said my sister, referring to myself, has told me about her and said 'gotta dash!' and I actually corrected myself. Ugh I feel so stupid!"

Blitz's head was pounding and no matter what Bubble Berry said to him he couldn't calm him down. Blitz wasn't thinking he didn't know what he was doing the walls started to close in around him. Seeing Scootaloo had made him realize just how real their situation was but he needed to fly so he flew into the air flying higher and higher. He heard his friend yelling after him but there was another voice, a feminine voice. He didn't know exactly who it was but it meant trouble for him. He hid inside of a cloud waiting to see if anyone came after him.

Ten seconds later, Twilight came from only slightly below his cloud. "Rainbow Dash, was that you?! What's going on?! Where's Pinkie Pie, where are you?" There was a loud striking sound as a bolt of lightning struck Twilight, instantly knocking her unconscious.

Rainbow Blitz's eyes went wide he raced after his friend. Rainbow knew that his other friends would come after Twilight but Twilight was his friend too so he flew faster and faster to catch up with her. He managed to grab the back of her leg and with all his strength he pulled up trying to slow them down. His wings began to burn and the ground was catching up to them. He slowed them down to about 10 miles per hour and pulled Twilight in close and prepared for the impact. When the ground came he shielded Twilight with his body making sure she'd be okay other than having been struck by lightning. His body was thrown against the cold ground. He could already tell that his left wing was sprained and to make things worse his vision began to go blurry.

The last thing he saw was three figures in front of him and then another pony came up to him before his vision went black.
