-- This story is picking up after the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, Season 3, Episode 06, "Sleepless in PonyVille" --

Rainbow dash had just arrived at her sky house, she had been camping with her Best Friends, Their Siblings, and Scootaloo. Thinking back on it, Scootaloo had been on Rainbow Dash's mind for quite some time now, even before the camping trip. She had been thinking about a few things that Rainbow had heard her say. One that has been on her mind is when she told her to scram and she said, "Okay sis". She thought she heard her wrong at first as she had her head down and was quiet but after the camping trip she now knew that she said it. She couldn't bare thinking about this any more, she noticed the way Tank(her pet tortious) was staring at her. She had been trotting in circles and made an indent in the cloud floor to the point where she could see light coming threw. She sheepishly smiled at Tank and he just blinked back at her. She went outside and grabbed some cloud of her front porch and filled in the indented floor. She took her Turtle (Tortious) and went to bed. Tank knew she just wanted some company right now as she was staring off into space instead of sleeping. Tank nuzzled her if that is what you would call it. Rainbow started to fall asleep. The light dimmed and her eyes closed, drifting off into a deep sleep she thought nothing could wake her up from. Crack, the sound of thunder jolted Rainbow awake. Tank had slowly opened one eye after the other as Rainbow shake woke him. He stared at her wondering what surprised her. She looked at the see nothing but dark clouds. Her house is at the cloud level so she couldn't see the ground. The dark clouds continued on for what seemed like forever. She noticed the dark clouds looked familiar but couldn't remember where she saw them last. She went outside to her porch and looked around. No matter which way she looked the clouds never ended. They went North, East, South, West, and every which way between. She decided to go check and see if AppleJack knew what was going on. She beat the cloud so she could get threw and it broke so easy. She knew only high quality clouds like this could come from CloudsDale. Does that mean something wrong, she really needed to see her friends and figure out what's going on. She told Tank to close the windows and doors, and then bolted threw the hole she made, it closed fast meaning that the machine was still on. Lucky she could find her house when she needed to return, her floor was almost perfectly level with the cloud level. Her floor was white and everything around it was black, only problem was finding the front. Rainbow darted to Sweet Apple Acres, shot pass The Clubhouse. She noticed that there was an orange blur in the window. Which she guessed was most likely Scootaloo looking at the storm in awe. She didn't know why the Crusaders were in the club house ina storm that hammered the ground with rain, and the wind that took hay piles sprawling into the sky. Rainbow Dash ever had trouble flying threw this weather, she would be surprised to see anypony outside during this. She got to Aj's door and started knocking but the rain picked up and drowned out the sound of knocking. She tried to open the door but it was locked. She decided there was only one thing left to do, she took a dart back, and rammed hard into the door. It blew off it's hinges and fell down inside. Rainbow Dash stood atop of the broken door and looked up to see Aj and Rarity Staring at her. "You could knock more lightly SugarCube...." AppleJack said staring at her busted door. Rainbow looked down at the door and got off as Rarity used her magic to put the door back in place. Not fixing it but holding it in place sense the hinges were broke. Rainbow Noticed Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom sitting in front of Granny Smith who as telling them something Rainbow ask, "What are the Crusaders doing... Never mind, more importantly why is their Cloudsdale storm clouds here?". Rarity said, "Well we thought you put them up, you have been gone all day." Rainbow was more curious then ever."No I didn't put them up, maybe Twilight knows. Is she here?" Dash replied confused. "I think she is at her house, holding a lightning protecting bubble with her magic." Rarity said relaxing as she stop holding the door in place. Rainbow thanked them and went to the door, as she noticed that Scootaloo wasn't with the other crusaders. "Why isn't Sco-" Rainbow couldn't finish her sentence as a blunt heavy force hit the back of her head, knocking her unconscious.
