CHAPTER 1: THE START OF IT ALL
SEMIAHMOO SECONDARY SCHOOL
GREATER VANCOUVER, B.C. CANADA
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2010
2:22 PM PDT

My human name is Cooper Bogart, I'm 14 in Grade 9, my second year of high school.

Come on, come on!

I hate fourth block, and school in general (who doesn't). It's the last class of the school day, but it always feels longer than an hour and a half

Well, at least block four is guitar class today. I think to myself while staring off into space. Much more fun than Science or Spanish at least.

"Hey, Cooper? You there buddy?" I quickly turn to see Elysa Beilka, (funny name, I know) my best friend, in this class at least, looking at me with a concerned look on his face. Ely is 5'8 with basically a really curly brown afro, (no he's white you people who believe stereotypes) and brown eyes. The dude's a bit of an eccentric when it comes to, well basically everything from conspiracy theories, to his favourite video games.

"Ya, whats up dude."

"You were a little zoned out there, you alright?"

"Ja, ja, ich bin gut."

"What?!"
Oops, slipping into my german again.

"Sorry, it means 'Ja I'm good'. Since my visit to Lichtenstein (no, it's a real country, my grandmother was born there) this summer I keep slipping into my german every now and then" I quickly explain.

"Ok, whats it like?" he asks me.

"Oh, think Switzerland but about 10 times smaller."

"Oh"

"Anyway, you free this weekend?"

"Well, I'm longboarding with Matt and Joel on Saturday, but I got nothin Sunday"

"Cool, my house at uhhhh...11?"

"Yea, that works."

I think for a few more seconds before deciding to play 'Time Of Your Life' by Greenday, the one song I've mastered already.

To be honest before this year I had never touched a guitar in my life.

"Bing, Bing, Bing, Bing"
There's the bell. I'm outta here!

"Bye Coop, see ya tomorrow!"

"See ya Ely!"

I quickly make my way to my Locker which is nearly on the other side of the school.

Ok, let's see. Math? No homework. Science? Nope. Intergraded Studies? (fancy way of saying Social Studies and English in one yearlong class) Nope. And never any Guitar homework. Ok where's Austin?

I grab my back pack and head towards my younger brother's locker.

I see Aussi walking towards me. Its hard to believe that I'm a year and ten months older than he is. He's 6'2, 145 lb. brown hair, brown eyes. Only difference between us being I'm 6'3, 135 lb. and our faces are shaped different.

"Hey Bro, sup" I ask.

"Eh, not much, other than Mr. Mundi being a dick in science class again"

"How so?"

Austin looks at me and launches into one of his trademark half-sarcastic half-plain-pissed-off explanations "You ever have a teacher that gets of topic, on his own, talks about whatever it is for 20 minutes, then gets pissed off and blames you for getting off topic?!"

"Ah, I see. Erwin has complained to me several times about him, sounds like a total A-hole"

"Don't I know it" he replies with an eye roll.

We exit the back entrance if the school and head through the forest on the way home chatting about video games, which girls at school are hot, you know, regular teenage boy stuff.

It takes us about 25 minutes to walk home. We stop at Safeway and buy some candy to eat while we play on our Xbox. When we get home the first thing out of Austin's mouth (of course) is "Dibs the Xbox"

"Ugh. Fine I'll just watch youtube then"

"Whatcha gonna watch?"

"Eh probably gonna catch up on Nanners and Chilled (yes the youtubers) and play some Xcom"

"K"

After watching Nanners shenanigans for a hour I started up Xcom: Enemy Unknown. For those who don't know Xcom is a tile turn based strategy game. You have 4 to 6 soldiers and you have to complete an objective which is normally kill all the aliens. They can range from small humanoid Sectoids which can't really hurt you but you can one hit, to giant Sectopods which are super tough robot walkers that can one hit your troops. Anyway getting off topic.

We play video games for the next 3 hours before Mom yells at us to turn it off. We yell back "just let me finish my level/mission". Eventually we do and go have dinner of pasta and bratwurst, man I love those things.

After dinner I go turn on my guitar amp and practice some ACDC for a bit. My favourite is 'Shoot To Thrill'. I'm planning to enter the next 'Semi's Got Talent' with my band, and play 'Shoot To Thrill' and another song I'm writing.

After I finished playing along to the music from my iPod, I went upstairs to have a quick shower. Then I brushed my teeth and got ready for bed. Now I know many of my friends and class mates get to stay up till one in the morning, but not me. My Mom is one of those who says you need lot of sleep, which is why I have to go to bed by 9:30..........Waaaa.

I hopped into bed and shut my eyes. Now normally I'm lucky if I end up lying in bed for 30 minutes before I fall asleep. Normally its 45 minutes to an hour. Not his night, I wasn't even that tired, but as soon as my head hit the pillow I was out.

And then it happened.

I woke up and saw a fluffy cloud wall, and the bed was so comfy........

Wait...fluffy cloud wall?!?!

I sit up and look around.

WTF!!

Author's Note

Hey, first fic yay!!

Any way I don't really know anyone who is good at art but I'm looking for a better cover image so if anyone can make/find one I'd be vary appreciative.

Yes, I know its a little short, the rest of the chapters will be longer, my average day is very boring and there isn't much to write about.

Chapter 2: I'm a pony?!?!

CAPTER 2: I'M A PONY?!?!
RAINBOW DASH'S (MY) HOUSE
CLOUDSDALE, EQUESTRIA
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1995
8:37 AM MST (Manehattan standard time)

WTF!!

I look around and notice the fact that apparently the walls are made of clouds!

Looking down I notice that under my hooves are more clouds in the shape of a bed.

Hmmm....a house made of clouds, that's new...........Wait I have hooves now?!

Quickly looking at my self I appear to be a sky blue, rainbow maned, winged horse like creature. I notice a mirror on the wall of what I guess is my room. Looking into it I see (you probably know what I look like) that my eyes are cerise, ok thats new, and that my body is shaped like a very, very small horse with thicker legs. I also notice that my wings look too small to fly with.

Maybe I'm a young.....well, pegasus I guess. And my name is Rainbow Dash!.....Woah, where did that come from?

Suddenly, I notice that I have a few memories I didn't have before.

Ok, so I'm a, gulp, female pegasus named Rainbow Dash. I'm five years old. My birthday is tomorrow. My Dad is Rainbow Blitz, and my Mom is Rainbowshine. I was born and live in a cloud city called 'Cloudsdale' (WARNING BRAIN OVERLOADING). The country is called 'Equestria'. There are three pony species, Earth, Unicorn, and Pegasus. The capital is 'Canterlot'.....

This went on for ten or so minutes, until I had gone over pretty much everything a five year old filly from here should know.

Okayyyy then? This is one hell of a crazy and real feeling dream! At least it's not real! I couldn't deal with a sex change in reality! Hmmm...let's see if these wings work.

I flapped my wings as hard as I could and jumped. the only problem was I slowly fell back down instead of flying

FUCK! I guess I have to grow a little more.

I start to walk out the bedroom door, then I thought about how I was walking. 'THUMP!'

Ow, note to self, don't think about walking while doing so.

I head down the stairs towards the kitchen doing my best to not think about walking on four legs.

"Hello Dashie!"

"Hi Mom!"

"How did you sleep?"

"Ah, fine" I reply while taking a seat at the cloud table trying to act natural.

I don't feel like telling them that this is a dream. She sounds just like my human Mom......I feel like I'm not gonna see her for a very long time, WHAT AM I SAYING! Of course I'm gonna see her soon! This is a dream for fuck's sake!

"Whats for breakfast?" I ask eagerly.

"Pancakes."

Cool they have pancakes here to. Well, it is a dream, so this is my sub-conscience playing with me (as you can guess, no it isn't, I didn't know that).

"Yay!"

Hmmmm...My voice is higher. I wonder why I took so long to notice?

"Where's Daddy?"

"He left to go to work in the weather factory" she said putting some yummy looking pancakes in front of me.

"Oh" These look so good!

"Are you ready to go to your first day of kindergarden on Monday?"

What? Oh yeah I'm five. Heck! Kindergarden all over again! Easy! Fuck, it's school why am I exited?"

"Ya, I guess." I said, sounding like someone had just killed my cat as my dad would say.

**************************************************

12 hours later

Well this has been an interesting. I wonder if when I go to sleep I'll wake up as my human self again.

Anyway, after breakfast I had gone for a walk with my Mom. We went and got some groceries. while we were walking up and down the aisles I saw some Wonderbolts toys.

Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmoygosh!!! Where are these mental outbursts coming from?

"Mom, can you get me some of those Wonderbolts toys?! Please?" I begged doing my best cute face.

"Ok, Dashie, but you have to promise me that you won't fuss about going to school on Monday."

"Ya, OK!"

After we finished shopping we went to the play ground. I noticed that there was one yellow furred, pink maned filly cowering in one corner of the area.

I trotted over and asked her what her name was.

"Flutter....." her voice at the end resulting in a unintelligible whisper (you know what I mean).

"Sorry, what was that?"

"Flutters..."

"Ummm.. Ok, I'm Coop..I mean Rainbow Dash! One day I'm gonna be the fastest flyer in Equestria!"

Where did that come from? Anyway.

"Flutter...shy was it?" she nodded.

No shit Surelock!

"Would you like to hangout some time?"

"Oh yes, I would love to!" she suddenly spouted "If it's ok with you. Sorry."

"I'm the one who asked, of course its Ok Flutters! How about right now?"

"Ummm..well, I kind of have to leave now, my Mom and I have to go and see the Teacher. It's my first day of Kindergarden on Monday." she said starting to leave.

"Wait. Which school are you going to?"

"Number 3. Why?"

"No way, me too! I guess I'll see you there!" I said excitedly.

Well, there's the first friend I've made in this dream world! My sub-conscience must have modelled her after Ben, then exaggerated his shyness. That guy is such a scaredy pants.

After that, me and Mom headed home.

"Hey, guys, look it's Fluttergay! HAHA!"

I quickly looked over towards the source and saw Hoops and Dumbbell harassing Fluttershy.

"LEAVE HER ALONE!!" I angrily stomped over towards them.

"Oh and what are you going to do about it, Rainbow Crash!" Teased Dumbbell.

OH YOU SON OF A BITCH!

"Oh, I don't know. How about I give you A FLANK KICKING YOU WON'T FORGET ANYTIME SOON!!"

"Oh is little Crashie mad?" he teased.

Fuck, not going how I wanted. I don't even know how to fight in this body!

"Now boys, you should be ashamed of yourselves!"

What? Who... oh I forgot Mom was even there.

"B-b-but"

"No buts. I am going to have a long talk to your parents about this!"

"Yes Ms. Shine." They replied weakly.

I walked over to Fluttershy.

"You OK?"

"I am now that you showed up." She replied meekly. "Thanks for getting rid of those bullies, they were really scaring me, if it wasn't a problem."

"No prob Flutters! See you at school on Monday!"

"Bye, Rainbow Dash."

As we walked away towards our house, my Mom had a little chat with me.

"Rainbow, I'm very proud of what you did back there, standing up for a pony you only met 10 minutes before. That was very loyal of you"

"Thanks Mom" I said beaming with pride.

When we got home, I immediately went upstairs to my room. On my way up I accidentally thought about walking again. 'THUNK!'

After picking myself up I walked (cantered?) into my room and pulled the Wonderbolts toys out of their packaging. I pretended to have them flying around my room doing stunts.

Geez, it feels good to let my 5 year old side out again! Ye know, if these dreams keep coming up I'll do my best to become a Wonderbolt! Since I'm gonna be a fighter pilot in real life I may as well become the closest thing here! *yawn* Oh I'm tired.

"Good night Rainbow." Mom said tucking me in.

"Night Mom."

*zzzzzzzzzzzzzz*

**************************************************

*yawn* Agh...hmmmmm....am I still a pony?

I opened my eyes to check.

Cloud walls and bed.....yep. Still a pony.

Author's Note

Well I've edited and added a bunch of new stuff and I still can't get it the way I want. Oh well whoop de f***en do, I did my best. I'm only In grade 9 english (and barely passed with 62%, you need at least 50%, at that), never thought I'd actually be writing for fun. I'll up date and do some more chapters every second day or so.

Anyway, still looking for some better cover art, and if anyone would like to be my editor/proofer that would be much appreciated.

OK done ranting.

Chapter 3: What kind of dream is this?!

CHAPTER 3: WHAT KIND OF DREAM IS THIS?!
RAINBOW DASH'S (MY) HOUSE
CLOUDSDALE, EQUESTRIA
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1995
9:02 AM MST

*yawn* Agh...hmmmmm....am I still a pony?

I opened my eyes to check.

Cloud walls and bed.....yep. Still a pony. Damn, this is one hell of a dream.

I slowly get out of bed and head towards the bathroom to relive myself.

Heh. This is a dream and I still have to piss. Screw you sub-consciance! Y U make so realistic!

I quickly finish my 'business' and head downstairs, pausing once for the obligatory faceplant, 'THUD!'

Ow. Note to self learn how to walk without doing a faceplant every time I think about it.

"Happy birthday Rainbow!"

"Thanks Mom."

"Sleep well?"

"Ya. So what are we doing today?"

"Well, seeing how you are into the Wonderbolts, your father was going to take you to their show this afternoon as your birthday present. Do you remember Uncle Lightning Dash?"

"OhmygoshohmygoshohmyGOSHOHMYGOSH! (Brain. Y U DO DIS!)Thank you Mom, your the best!" I leap up hugging her with all my strength.

"Don't thank me. Thank your father. You still haven't answered my question."

"Uncle Lightning Dash? Sounds familiar but no." I reply sitting back down at the table.

"He's a Wonderbolt, he gave your father the tickets."

"Awesome!"

"Now, Dashie, are you going to eat your cereal?"

Oh ya, totally forgot about that.

I quickly dig in. All the cereal is gone in ten seconds flat! Na, I'm kidding it was more like a realistic 3 minutes. After breakfast I head upstairs (not falling on my face this time) to brush my teeth and all that stuff. I then walk outside in the front yard and sit down.

Hmmm.. this is not very comfortable. I wonder wh...Oh, right pony body.

I quickly try sitting down like my cat back on earth.

Ahhh, much better. Wow. This city is amazing! My brain was so tired from trying to analyze my sudden influx of memories, I didn't even notice the scenery!

As I look around I see Pegasi all over flying and going about their daily business. There is what appears to be an arena off to one side, (I can tell because it looks like the colosseum made of clouds) as well as many homes and shops all over the sky. I stand up and walk to the edge of the cloud and look down. My pilot skills kicking in (I'm in the Air Cadets so I go flying quite often) I realize how high I am.

HOLY SHIT!! I must be at least 7 kilometres up! Note to self, don't fall off before I can fly, which if memory serves, should be when I'm seven or eight. Hopefully I'm not stuck in this dream that long!

I head back to my spot and think some more.

Well........Wait, in dreams your sub-conscience uses things that it has, A.K.A memories or...well actually thats all, and I don't remember any thing about ponies before I went to sleep. Especially brightly coloured talking ones.

Wait. Logic, are you telling me that this is real?

Yup

No, No way in hell. I can't have turned into a sky blue, rainbow maned pegasi over night. No, not possible.

There's also the fact that when someone realizes that they are dreaming, they wake up.

Well shit.

Hmmmm....If this is real then what happened to my body back on earth? Maybe I have two bodies? Yea, right.

And how did these memories get here? I couldn't come up with it in my imagination. I'm 14, soon to be 15 for fucks sake! I must have had a bunch of stuff happen in this body but was too young to remember anything but those facts. Ya that has to be it.

"Hey Dashie."

"Hi Mom."

"You ready to go?"

Already? Time flies, geez.

"YES!"

"Your Father will be here in five minutes, OK?"

"OK!"

Five minutes later a light purple, rainbow maned Pegasus came flying in from the direction of the weather factory. According to my memories this was my father.

"Hey Kiddo!" He yelled as he flew in.

"Daddy!" I wonder why it feels so natural to act like a five year old? Well I guess I am at the moment.

"You ready to go see the Wonderbolts?"

"YA!" Wow, I'm acting like the first time I saw the Snowbirds. (Canadian equivalent to the Blue Angels or Thunderbirds)

"Hop on then Dashie!"

I quickly got on my Dad's back and we flew towards the 'Colosseum' A.K.A Cloudsdale Stadium. When we got there, there were Pegasi packing the place. We found a seat and I hopped off.

After waiting for ten or so minutes, a voice came over the PA system.

Fillies and Gentlecolts, please allow me to introduce, The WONDERBOLTS"

The crowd, myself included, burst into cheers as the Wonderbolts flew overhead beginning their routine. I looked and saw uncle Lightning Dash flying in the right slot position. He was hard to miss with his turquoise and flame yellow mane. The two solo flyers broke off to begin their stunts while the rest of the main formation began a giant loop-de-loop. The solos began to buzz the crowd and I recognized them as Firefeet and Cloud Blast. The main formation then did a straight up climb before breaking like a firework. All the members then dove into the stadium buzzing the crowd, Lightning Dash took care to buzz us specifically before the formation reformed.

After 15 minutes of spectacular stunts, the Wonderbolts flew off.

"How was that for a birthday present Rainbow?"

A giant smile spread across my face "That was AWSOME!! One day I'm gonna be just like them!"

"Thatta girl!"

Afterwords we headed to a restaurant called 'Cloudsdale Sushi'.

What? We can't eat meat but they have sushi? I guess it must be vegetarian. I guess that means there are some Japanese or whatever-they-are-called-here ponies. Guess it makes sense.

There we met Lightning Dash.

"Hey little Bro!" my Dad called out. Lightning is 10 years younger than my Dad who is 53, but they never did care.

"Hey Blitz! And little Dashie! How'd you like the show?" he said looking at me.

"It was AWESOME!!" I replied beaming.

"Glad you liked it! Took us forever to get the firework break right!"

"I wanna be just like you!"

"Ah, with a lot of practice you might be as good as me one day!"

After having some vegetable teriyaki and cucumber rolls (my favourite even when I was human) and a long chat with my Dad and uncle LD, we headed home.

It was getting late when we got home and I was pooped. I actually fell asleep on my dads back.

**************************************************

NEXT MORNING
7:30 AM

"Rainbow? Rainbow is time to get up, It's the first day of school."

School? Fucking Fuckity Fuck.

"K, one sec." I groaned.

I stayed in bed for an extra few precious minutes then got up and headed downstairs, thanking Celestia (thats also new) that I didn't fall on my face when I thought about it. When I got to the kitchen I found some warm waffles sitting on a syrupy plate.

"Thanks Mom" I mumbled.

After eating I went and did my business and then met my Mom at the front door. She had my sky blue saddlebags all packed and ready to go. I hopped on and we flew towards the Schoolhouse.

Man I love the wind in my mane.

When we got there I saw a certain yellow Pegasus sitting by herself in one corner of the school yard. She visibly brightened at the sight of me approaching.

"Hey Fluttershy!"

"Hello Rainbow Dash."

"How are you feeling about school?" I asked.

"Oh, I'm exited to learn new things."

Definitely something ben would say.

"Ha, I wish I could say the same."

"Why?"

"Because I bucking hate school!"

"Eep!" Fluttershy let out a little squeak and cowered behind her mane.

"OH, Sorry Fluttershy! I didn't mean to scare you!"

"Oh," she stood back up "I-I-It's O-OK Rainbow."

"RING-RING-RING-RING"

"Well, there's the bell. You want to sit together Flutters?"

"Sure, if it's OK with you."

*FACEHOOF* "Arn't I the one who asked"

"Ummm, yes?"

Oh Fluttershy!

By that time we had walked inside and we quickly found a pair of seats together and sat down. At the front of the class is a navy blue mare with white hair, and a smiling cloud as a cutie mark.

"Hello Students. My name is Ms. Rain Dance, but you can call me Ms. Rain. Now for our first less....."

I stopped listening when I felt a small piece of wet, rolled up paper hit the back of my neck.

Oh I wonder who that is. I thought sarcastically.

Turning around I see Hoops and Dumbbell, (Surprise Big Not) a few rows back, making more spitballs. As I turn back to the front, I feel a second hit my ear.

MOTHERBUCKING SON OF A BITCH!!

"Hoops! You do that one more time, I'm gonna buck the crap out BOTH of you!" I hiss back at them.

I turn back to the front, after a minute of Ms. Rain babbling about the plan for the school year I begin to think the two A-holes have taken a hint. I was wrong.

"Eep!" Fluttershy begins cowering as a spitball bounces off her ear.

"OK, THATS IT. COME HERE YOU LITTLE BASTARD!!"

I leap up and jump across several desks to get to them. I jump Hoops, who is holding the straw, knocking him over, and begin to pummel him with my forehooves. I then feel a dull thud on the side of my face, and I'm skidding across the floor away from Dumbbell who has just bucked me with his hind legs.

Right there's two of them. Forgot that for a sec.

Then Ms. Rain is in between us. "Stop this at once!"

"Ok, but they started it!" I yell.

"You are all coming to the principals office with me, NOW!"

Author's Note

Well that was fun to write. any way I hopes you like.

Still looking for better cover art and an editor so if you can help me with that it would be great

CLOUDSDALE ELEMENTARY NO.3
CLOUDSDALE, EQUESTRIA
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1995
10:37 AM MST

"You are all coming to the principals office with me, NOW!"

"Yes Ms. Rain" The bullies and I replied, JEEEEZ. I've never had a temper like that! Only when Austin REALLY pisses me off!

We walked towards the office following Ms. Rain. Hoops and Dumbbell walked on the other side of her, Hoops was stoping to rub his head every little while.

HEHE. I hope you have headaches for a while you bastard!

When we arrived at the principal's office, Ms. Rain put the three of us in seats on opposite sides of the waiting room, and went to converse with the principal. I rubbed my face and felt a dull pain when I pushed on my right cheekbone.

Oh yea. Dumbbell bucked me in the fight. If that was a real horse I would be dead right now. Either that or this body has bones that are ten times stronger than Human bones. Actually no. This is a dream, therefore I can't be hurt.

Ms. Rain walked out and told us it was our turn. I walked in first followed by you-know-who. When I got inside the office I saw a grey, brown maned pegasus with a paper covered in writing as a cutie mark. I sat down and waited for the two bullies. When they were sitting down the principal spoke.

"Ms. Rainbow Dash, Mr. Hoops, Mr. Dumbbell. It has been brought to my attention that you three were involved in a fight a few minutes ago. I'm going to ask each of you to present your point of view. Ms. Dash you go first."

"Well, they were using a straw to shoot spitballs at me and other students in the class, they hit me twice so I told them to stop, so instead they shot my friend Fluttershy. She is so nice and innocent I couldn't let them just do that. I sorta lost control and jumped Hoops, hit him a few times then Dumbbell bucked me across the room, then Ms. Rain got in between us and stopped us."

"MMMMHMM. Thank you Ms. Dash. Hoops your turn."

Hoops explained what had happened, but changed one minor detail. He said they hadn't been doing anything.

"You're lying!" I spat. "You were shooting spitballs! Just ask anyone in the class!"

"Thank you Rainbow but we will determine if he is lying after we hear from Dumbbell."

Dumbbell then said the same thing, making it look like I had attacked unprovoked! When he finished he said that hoops and dumbbell could expect two days detention for an hour after school and me one, and if Hoops was telling the truth I could expect an entire week.

After that we were sent back to our classroom. I got there and I went and sat back next to Flutters.

"What happened?"

"I'll tell you after class, K?"

"OK Rainbow."

*************************************************

2:30 PM

After class my Mom showed up to get me. As we walked home I told her about the fight and what else the teacher had said while I was actually listening. When we got home I sat down on my bed to think. I was beginning to doubt that this was 'just a dream', it felt so real.

But if this is real, HOW?! It's just not possible. Did every one turn into ponies and Vancouver turn into a cloud city? No way. Am I in another dimension or something? The only logical explanation is that this is a dream. Ungh I'm bored!

I headed back downstairs and decided to go hang with Fluttershy, I didn't have anything better to do. I told my Mom and trotted towards Flutters house. She had told me which one it was after class at school. I got there and knocked (More like thumped. It's a cloud) on the door.

"Oh, hello Rainbow Dash" came a small peep out of the mail slit. The door opened and I saw Fluttershy.

"Hey Fluttershy! You wanna hang?" I asked.

"Sure Rainbow. What do you want to do?"

"I was thinking we get to know each other better."

"OK"

We walked towards the park talking about ourselves, not that I had much to tell her having become a pony only three days ago. I did learn that Fluttershy was afraid of heights which was strange as she is a pegasus (I'm not afraid of anything!).

After walking and talking for a few hours I had to head home, so Fluttershy and I went our separate ways. I got back to find dinner ready, more specifically my favourite type of salad, iceberg lettuce and cucumbers with tomatoes (It may be a little plain but oh yum!). After dinner I when to my room to play with my Wonderbolts toys. Then my Mom came and tucked me in.

*zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz*

A YEAR LATER
MY HOUSE
CLOUDSDALE, EQUESTRIA
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1996
8:37 PM CST

WOW. This is no dream. An entire year, it's been a YEAR since this all started. I guess I'm never gonna see my human family again. And my birthday is in two days.

I had gone through a year as a pony. I finally accepted that this wasn't a dream. How could it be? On the bright side, I had a new life that was way better than my crappy human life, although I did miss my family.

I wonder what happened to my body on Earth? Did it just disappear or did it go into a coma? Oh man, so many questions but no way to answer any of them.

That was my last thought as I drifted off to sleep.

*CRINK*

"Cooper? Time to wake up!"

"K Mom one sec"

Geez, I feel more tired than usual.......WAIT....SHE CALLED ME COOPER!

My eyes shot open and I looked around. I was in my bedroom back on earth. I looked at myself. I saw a lanky 14 year old's body and it happened to be my human one.

HOLY SHIT! I GUESS IT WAS A DREAM AFTER ALL!

I got up and put on my t-shirt and shorts and headed downstairs to the kitchen, almost falling over a couple times.

Got to get used to walking on two legs again! This feels so weird!

I see my mom as I enter the kitchen and I immediately give her a big hug. A look of confusion comes over her face.

"Bad dream" is all I say. Actually great dream but I'm not gonna tell her.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Did you sleep?"

"Ya, great actually"

I sit down to eat some cereal and go through my regular before school routine.

Shit. School was a cake walk back in Cloudsdale. But thats because it's kindergarden. Back to Grade 8 Math. SOOOOOOOO hard.

I had never been good at math, always barely scraping through with a C or C-. When I got to school I went to my locker to ditch my back pack and headed to the cafeteria.

"Hey Coop!"

Looking over I see a 5' 10 brown haired 14 year old walking towards me.

"Hey Jon! sup?"

"EH, Not much. How bout' you?"

"I'm good."

Oddly, Jon had just tried to bite a non-existant apple or something. Giving an annoyed face he took off his backpack and pulled out an apple and began to eat.

"Yo, Dude did you think you had the Force there for a sec?"

"In a sense" he replied awkwardly.

What can that mean?

"DING....DING...DING...DING"

"Well I'll see you at lunch!"

"See ya"

Oh man, it feels good to be human again. It also feels bad too. I wonder........Maybe I'll be Rainbow for another year when I go to sleep?

Oh I'm awake. Alright. Am I a human or pony?

I open my eyes....And see clouds.

The answer is pony.

I get up and look around.

Why is everything so small?.......HOLY SHIT I'M FLYING, more like hovering, but still, THIS IS AWESOME! How? I was training my wings last time. Must be instinct or somethin.

I did a couple laps of my room and realized that I got tired really fast.

Guess I'll have to train a bit. hahAHA. Oh I can't wait to see the look on Hoops and Dumbbells faces when I fly circles around them! And it's still a year until I'm old enough for flight camp! LOLZ!

WOW. Another year as Rainbow Dash, the soon-to-be fastest flyer in Equestria!

Over the course of the year I had Increased my stamina so that when my parents and I when around town to do stuff I could fly on my own power. I still wasn't very good at it but it sufficed as a mode of transport.

I figured that I would end up back on earth as my human self when I went to sleep, so thats what I did.

HELL FUCKING YES!!

I was shooting around the sky doing loop-de-loops and other stunts. My Flying had improved a ton in flight camp.

OK, enough of that where's Fluttershy?......OH Shit.

Looking down I see Flutters being bullied by Hoops and Dumbbell.

"HA! My baby brother can fly better than you!"

"Leave her alone!" I burst in.

"Ooh, what are you gonna do, 'Rainbow Crash'?" Hoops sneered.

"Keep making fun of her and find out!"

"You think you're such a big shot? Why don't you prove it?" Challenged Dumbbell

"Whaddya have in mind?"

"A race!"

"Your ON!"

**************************************************

A FEW MINUTES LATER

Oh eat my dust BITCH! this is gonna be fun!

We had made our way to the camps racecourse, while word of the race had gone around very quickly, and a crowd of other students had taken the bleachers. The three of us went to the start line and Fluttershy was standing on a cloud with a checkered flag.

"You're going down!" Hoops said.

"In history, maybe. See you boys at the finish line!"(BITCH, PLEASE!) I confidently yelled back.

Flutters waved the flag and I flew forwards faster than I ever had before. Speeding ahead of my two challengers, I saw that they were gaining. The speed, the adrenaline, HELL YEA. I took one of the tighter corners at full speed, looking behind me I see Dumbbell successfully follow but Hoops took the corner too fast and ran into a cloud.

"Ow!"

"Ha! Later, Rainbow Crash!"

"Hey!"

Dumbbell zipped past. But whats the point of going all out in a race if you can't win?

I flapped my wings faster and faster until I saw a sonic cone forming around my fore hooves.

A sonic cone? I must be going at least mach 5!

*BOOM*

HOOOLYYYY SHITTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!

My speed instantly doubled and I flashed past Dumbbell while doing mach 10. I pass the rest of the course in seconds, zooming across the finish line. I look behind me and see a huge expanding circle of rainbow, as well as my mane and tail shimmering and I'm leaving a rainbow trail behind me. And there was something on my flank.

OM-FUCKING-G! THIS IS AWESOME!!!! A SONIC-RAINBOOM!! And I got my CUTIE-MARK!

Author's Note

HELL YEA.

Well sorry it took so long. I had aLOT of baseball since my last chapter so I haven't had time, anyway I/Rainbow has gotten his/her cutie-mark yay. So has Flutters and I will be more consistent when doing chapters. New policy I'm gonna proof and edit the day after i do a chapter so expect this to be slightly different the day after I originally publish it.

Also, still wondering If anypony can edit/proof or provide some more fitting cover art that would be great, preferably something like a confused young Rainbow Dash.

Chapter 5: Ponyville

CHAPTER 5: PONYVILLE
MY HOUSE
CLOUDSDALE, EQUESTRIA
OCTOBER 14, 2006
10:44 AM EST

Well, at least I can consider this practice for when I have to leave home as a human.

Now in Equestria, the customs are slightly different, namely, most ponies leave home and live on their own at 16 or 17, and school only goes for ten years instead of 12. My education was done (YAY F@#% school!) so I decided to leave and look for somewhere that needed a weather pony. After a few goodbye hugs, (no, contrary to popular belief, my father was not a drunkard) I trotted out the door and went a little ways. Then I opened my saddlebags and pulled out a letter Fluttershy had sent me a week ago.

Dear Rainbow Dash,

As you know I moved out a month or so back, I just want you to know that I found a great place to live. It's called Ponyville and the town is full of great ponies. The wildlife needed a caretaker so I volunteered and that's my job now. The otters and birds and all the others are so nice. Oh and did I mention that they need another weather pony? I know that's what you are probably going to do according to your special talent. Anyway when you move out why don't you come here?

Your friend, Fluttershy
P.S. I attached a map with my cottage highlighted.

I put the letter back in my saddlebags and took off heading southwest, as Cloudsdale was floating above Fillydephia on the northern end of the east coast.

WOHOO! Flying on my own power, that'll never get old! I thought before doing a quick loop-de-loop.

I began flapping my wings faster until I was going as fast as I could go for extended periods of time.

************************************************************

A HOUR AND THIRTY MINUTES LATER

After an hour and a half of flying I spotted a sleepy looking village up ahead. Most of the buildings had thatched roofs and looked like swiss cottages. I flew over and landed on one of the clouds that was sitting above town.

OK, let's see... I thought pulling out the map Flutters had sent me. I spotted her house on the map and looked where I showed it to be. Sitting there about half a kilometre outside of town was a cottage that appeared to be carved out of a tree, surrounded by smaller animal houses.

Definitely Fluttershy's house. Hmmm...Should I or shouldn't I...Ah, Buck it.

I raised one hoof and smashed it back down on the cloud, dissipating it. I put my forelegs forward in a 'superman' position with my wings tucked in and promptly plummeted straight down. About 500 feet from the deck I popped my wings and began to put on a show, doing loop-de-loops and rolls all over the sky. After a few minutes I had a considerable audience gazing up at my impromptu air-show.

Oh yea! Thats it, check out the awesomeness that is ME, Rainbow Dash!

After ten minutes of this I headed towards Flutters' cottage. Landing, I folded my wings and trotted towards the door.

"HI!"

"WHAAGH! WHAT THE BUCK!" I shouted confusedly as a pink head popped out of a bush.

"Myname'sPinkiePiewhatsyournameareyoufluttershy'sfriendyournewherethatmeansIhavetothrowyouaparty!" she ranted before zooming off towards town.

"Ooookkkeeeyyyy then. What the buck is up with her?"

I then trotted up to the door and knocked.

"Hello?" a soft voice came as the door creaked open.

"Hey Fluttershy! Long time no see!"

"Oh, hi Rainbow! You must have got my letter." She said inviting me in.

"Yep. By the way, do you know anything about a crazy pink earth pony that talks really fast?"

"Oh, you must've met Pinkie. She throws a 'Welcome to Ponyville' party for everypony that is new. Rainbow? Where are you going to stay?

"OH, I'll build a cloud house on the outskirts of town. It'll take a week or so, until then I'll just sleep on a cloud. It's not like it's the middle of winter or something."

*knock knock knock*

"Hello? Fluttershy dear, are you there?" Came a voice that sounded like it should belong to some rich mare from Canterlot.

Great. If there is anything I can't stand it's rich snobs.

Fluttershy trotted over and opened the door revealing a pure white unicorn with a stylized purple mane.

"Hello Rarity. Why are you here?"

"Oh, Pinkie was raving about how there was a new pony in town and I just had to make her acquaintance."

Or maybe she just talks like that? She sounds nice and if Flutters is her friend then I guess she can't be that bad.

Fluttershy told Rarity to come in and she introduced us.

"Rarity, this is Rainbow Dash. I met her ten years ago on our first day of school. Rainbow this is Rarity. I met her and her friends when I moved here."

"Delighted to meet you Rainbow Dash. You must stop by my boutique some time. I could make you a wonderful dress."

NO way...If there is one thing other than rich people that I can't stand, it's standing still for an hour wile being measured.

"Nice to meet you too." I decided I wanted to keep this conversation short. Why did I feel like I knew her from somewhere?

"Hello? Fluttershy?" BUCK! REDNECK! HIDE! My brain screamed at me registering the southern accent. Did I mention I've had bad a bad experience with some rednecks before? As this went through my mind, an orange earth pony with a blond mane wearing a stetson walked through the door before I could move.

"Howdy Rare, Fluttershy. And here's our new arrival pinkie was blabbering about being one of Fluttershy's childhood friends. Nice to meet ya. Mah name's Applejack. I run an apple farm a little ways from here." She said shaking my hoof vigorously. When she stopped I had my turn.

"My name's Rainbow Dash. One day I'm gonna be the fastest flyer in Equestria!"

I could see in her eyes that she didn't believe me at all.

Meh. I'll just prove her wrong.

"Well RD. Where you gonna sleep the night?"

"Oh, I'm Gonna build a cloud house somewhere around town. It'll take a week. I'll just sleep on a cloud until then." Why do I feel like I know all three of them from somewhere?

"OOOOOOO, a cloud house, that sounds like fun!"

"WHATTHEMOTHABUCKINGHELL!!!" I yelled as I fell over after seeing a pink head shoot up behind the couch. Oh, that hyper pink pony again.

All the other occupants of the room had began guffawing at my reaction to...Pinkie I think it was, popping out of nowhere.

"That wasn't that funny." I muttered as I indignantly got up.

"Are you kiddin' Rainbow? That look on your face was hilarious!" Replied Applejack.

"Whatever."

"Oh Rainbow dear, it's not embarrassing to be surprised, specially if its Pinkie Pie. Why are you here anyway Pinkie?" offers Rarity.

"Oh I was just coming to invite her *Points at me* to my 'Welcome to Ponyville' party for her at Sugarcube Corner!"

"First of all, my name is Rainbow Dash and second, how did you do that?" Wow, I really am starting to think more of myself as Rainbow and less as Cooper. Guess it's the relative time spent as either. I spend a day as Coop, and a year as Rainbow. What is it now? 11 days as a human, 11 years as a pony? Ya I think that's right.

"Do what?" she asked snapping me out of my thoughts.

"How did you get in here without us noticing?"

"Don't even ask sugarcube." AJ piped up, "No one knows how she does it, ponyfeathers, I don't think Pinkie knows how she does it. She just breaks physics and the fourth wall on a whim, so don't even ask."

"Uh...Ookey then."

"Come on! We have to go!" The crazy pink pony yelled from the door.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because the future you who is writing this says so! (I'm serious, she said that and broke you-know-what so I'm writing it.)

"Case of point." Stated AJ.

"Pinkie Pie, you're so random!" (Ok, I realize in the show I say that a lot, but thats for a later chapter.)

"Well dears, why don't we take Rainbow here for a tour of the town?"

"Ah, why the heck not!" I replied.

**************************************************

As we cantered towards this 'Sugarcube Corner' after my tour, I used the opportunity to learn about my three new friends. I learn that Rarity lived in a apartment above her boutique, AJ on her farm of course, and Pinkie in an apartment above Sugarcube Corner (Is that why she acts like she's high all the time?). My new friends led me through town till we got to a building that looked like a giant gingerbread house.

Well, it is a bakery and confectionery shop so I guess the decor is fitting?

As we enter I see what appears to be half the town inside. I also see a banner that says 'Welcome Rainbow Dash'.

Wait...Pinkie learned my name back at Fluttershy's and has been with us the entire time...How did she? Ah heck wit it. 'Pinkie being Pinkie', thats what I'm gonna say from now on.

The instant I walk in I see a white unicorn with an electric blue mane, wearing pink goggles, pressing a few buttons before a song started playing. I bopped my head to the beat and went about doing the thing you're supposed to do at a party: PARTY!

HMMM...Why does this song sound familiar? Oh yea, this is 'Ghosts 'n' Stuff. Why is it in Equestria? I guess I'll ask the DJ.

Walking up to the DJ she took off her headphones and let the song play itself for a minute.

"Hey, you're the one that this party is for. RD is it?" I nodded, "Cool, I'm Vinyl Scratch, the local DJ"

"Great to meet you Vinyl. By the way, what is this song called?"

"Ghosts 'n' Stuff. By yours truly! Why?"

"Oh, It's...It just sounded familiar."

"Ok, you seem like a cool pony. You wanna hang at my club sometime?"

"Sure!"

"Just tell the bouncers your name, I'll have it put on the VIP list. I can tell we'll be great friends!"

"That'd be great! See ya Vinyl!" I said as I walked back towards the crowd.

"Hello Rainbow Dash!" A strange voice came from off to my left, "My name's Derpy Hooves, I'm the mail mare for ponyville!" Said the cross-eyed pegasus hovering beside me (Do I need to describe her anymore? Who here doesn't know who Derpy is!).

"Uhhh, Hi Derpy?"

Shit. That came out like wrong. I hope she just leaves it there.

Luckily for for me Derpy spotted some muffins and took off towards them at a speed rivalling mine.

OK, I take it she likes muffins.

**************************************************

Trotting over to my four friends I thanked pinkie pie for the awesome party she had put together for me. After saying goodbye I headed up into the sky and spotted a small hill off half a kilometre east.

Totally putting my house over that hill. I thought flying over to a cloud and pulling off a bed sized chunk. Grabbing my cloud I moved it to the spot of my future cloud house. Now I realize I never told you what it's like to lie on a cloud. Lets just say it's ten times more comfortable than the best mattress. Words don't do it justice. And, theres the small fact that, IT'S. A. CLOUD! Originally being human emphasizes that fact. Then next few things were simple. Stop, lay down, go to sleep.

**************************************************

To sum the next week up, the only things worth writing about were: built cloud house, got job as local weather pony, hung out at Vinyl's club, and got scared to death by Pinkie popping up randomly followed by me swearing profusely at least 12 times (Oh Pinkie!). Then my routine settled into some normality until the next time September 22 rolled around......

Author's Note

Ohhhhhhhh!

Anyway, still looking for cover art and an Editor/proofreader.

OK... Fifth chapter *sigh* better get this out of my system: The whole reason I'm writing this is because I want to tell it but if I tell anyone they will think I'm crazy. No I'm not saying that this actually happened. What I'm saying is I came up with this during my time daydreaming at school, and other places, because I wanted to be RD so bad I had to come up with a way. This is that way, except that it isn't possible ); I had a nagging feeling to share it, but like I said everyone would think I'm crazy. But I digress.

Anyway, I went back and found I had f$*@ the dates up so I went and fixed those. I will be doing a new chapter every 7 days at least, probably sooner, but I currently have A TON of baseball. Got provincials this week yay :)

"Cooper? Time to get up!" My Mom poked her head in to wake me up for school.

"MMMuph" I slowly got to my feet and walked on all fours over to the window for my early morning wake up flight.

I tried to hover up to open the window. What the buck? Oh Scheisse. Right I'm human at the moment.

I quickly stood up. I'm starting to hate these days as a human. Being stuck on the ground sucks!

*************************************************

AN HOUR LATER

I was standing at the rail on the hallway overlooking the cafeteria deep in my thoughts when I heard a voice that scared me out of my thoughts.

"Hello Cooper!"

"WHATTHEFUCK!! Kelsey! Tu' das nicht, du Dummkopf!"

"Say what?"

"Nothin'. Just slipping into mein Deutsch again. Just don't sneak up on me like that!"

I looked back at Kels. She was about 5'8 with brown hair and brown eyes. I had a crush on her for the last year, but she was dating Quillan the entire time so she was more just a friend. Damn if I didn't feel asexual because of my dream life thingiemabober I would ask her out right now...And the fact she's already dating Quillan.

"Ummm...Kels? Can I tell you something?"

"Yes dear?" OK...That resemblance is CREEPY!

"Well lately, I've been having dreams." *Sigh* here goes nothin'! "InthemI'mapegasusmare!" I blurted out.

Kelsey put her hand over my mouth to silence me. "Can you describe yourself in these dreams?"

Why is she acting like a crime scene investigator? "Ummm. I'm sky blue rainbow maned with a cloud and rainbow lightning bolt cutie mark. Why?" Not that she knows what that is.

Her eyes widen as she processes this, then she stared into my eyes and whispered two words so I could barely make them out. "Rainbow Dash? Is that you?"

I replied the only way I know as Rainbow: "The One And Only!"

She broke out in a huge smile. "Good to see you dear! I'm Rarity!"

Now it was my turn to have my jaw hit the floor. Wait! Does that mean that...?! She's...?! Awww, Hölle. She must have the same thing happening to her. Das ist nicht richtig.

"Let's go somewhere more private."

"BING-BING-BING-BING"

"Or maybe we can chat after school?"

"How about guitar class?"

"Eh why not"

**************************************************

5 HOURS AND 30 MINUTES LATER

15 minutes into guitar class and some story telling later me and Kels were all caught up.

"Oh, Dummkopf!" I said with a facepalm. "I just realized that our best friends in Equestria are probably our best friends here!"

"You really think so?" (Stop doing Rare's voice in your head for Kels, she sounds nothing like Rarity...Well she does but thats after *Spoiler*)

"Yup, and to make sure that were in the same dream-thing I'll meet you at Sugarcube Corner at 11, okay? Then we'll go get Flutters, Pinkie, and AJ."

"Alright"

"You know I guess this is why you've been acting different the last week."

"You too Cooper."

"But I thought this was how I always was?"

"It is. You're just even more cocky and full of yourself."

"Bin ich nicht." I muttered under my breath.

I love you guys! I thought to myself while preening my wings. I hate being human. You lose so much freedom not being able to fly! The little bell at the door rang and I saw a certain white unicorn walk in.

"Hey Rarity! Or should I say, Kelsey?" I asked as Rarity cantered up and took a seat at the table I had taken in sugarcube Corner.

"As a pony I prefer Rarity thank you vary much. What about you dear?" Came the Canterlot/British accented voice.

"Well, 'Cooper' is a stal-I mean a male's name and here I happen to be a mare so I think I'll stick to being Rainbow Dash as a pony."

"Hmmm...well the name fits the body and personality so I see why. What's it like to be the opposite sex of what your used to?"

"Not bad, but thats because I've had eleven years to adjust. I find it weird, I'm completely straight in both worlds, on earth as a human male, I find myself looking at girls, and here, as a pegasus female, I find myself looking at stallions. I don't get it."

"Hmmm, very interesting...Anyhow we should get the rest of our friends now."

"You want to get all of our friends together? We could have a picnic party!" (no points for guessing who said that)

"AGHH!! Pinkie! How many times do I have to tell you not to do that!" I yell at her while I try to get my wings to fold up (they pop out, or have a wing boner as my friends call it when I'm angry, scared, surprised or exited, it's immensely annoying).

Why am I always the only one startled when Pinkie does that?

"Hello Pinkie." Rarity interrupted, "Why don't you just arrange a plain picnic? No party thank you dear. We and all our friends need to chat."

"Okie-dokie-lokie!"

"How bout' our usual spot?" I suggest.

"Yes, that would be perfect dear." Damn she says that a lot!

Pinkie rushed off to prepare a picnic while Rarity and I went to invite Flutters and AJ.

**************************************************

AN HOUR LATER

"Thank you all for coming girls." Rarity said, "we have much to discuss."

"Like what?" Asked Applejack.

"Rainbow." Rarity motioned me to speak. I sat up on my cloud seat (SOOOOOO comfy!).

"Well let's just say that we're all human."

"What?"

"How did you know?"

"We are?"

"Now dears, we're going to go around the circle and were all going to tell each other our human names OK? Applejack, would you be kind enough to start?"

"Ah...Ah'm not sure. It's jus...*Sigh* as a human I'm male. Mah name is Cade." Cade? Cade Arnason?

"Well I'm Tim Pho!" Pinkie screeched. Well that would explain the randomness.

I looked at my friends for their reactions. AJ looked shocked as did Flutters, Pinkie just kept bouncing, and Rarity just sat and took in the scene.

"Oh my goodness." came a small voice, "I'm Ben van Buskirk" said Fluttershy. Oh-My-Bucking-God! Ben!

"An' what about you two?" Asked AJ.

"I'm Kelsey Hanes-Young" A few mouths dropped open at that.

"And I'm Cooper Bogart." I stated. "Looks like my four best friends from Earth are my four best friends in Equestria too!"

"AW Horseapples Rarity, yer so lucky. Ya get to stay the same sex through all of this." Spurted AJ.

"Just be happy that you ended up as AJ instead of Rarity, Cade. At least the personality changes didn't make you a priss"

Rarity gave me a death glare.

"Heh, Ah guess yer right." Replied the orange Earth pony

THE SKIES ABOVE
PONYVILLE, EQUESTRIA
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 2010
2:38 PM CST

COME ON COME ON!! I can do this!

I was flying above Ponyville just below the sound barrier, trying to pull off my newest trick, the 'Buccaneer Blaze' I'd decided to call it.

COME ON! I just gotta pass the sound barrier!........OH shit!

I quickly turned to avoid the cloud I didn't see ahead, and clipped it with my wing.

"Ooff!" I plunged out of control until I was flying very fast at nought feet through the streets. I regained control to see I was too late as I slammed into a purple unicorn landing both of us in a puddle of mud.

"Nng." she grumbled.

"Hee hee. Uh, 'scuse me? Hee hee!" I said getting up. Whoops. HA HA HA.

"Nnnn."

"Heh heh. Lemme help you."

I shot off and quickly grabbed a rain cloud after flying through to clean myself. I flew it back and positioned it above her before bouncing on it to make it rain.

"Hee *snort*. Oops, I guess I overdid it. Um, uh, how about this?" I said as I flew around her creating a mini-tornado, "My very own patented Rain-Blow Dry! No no. Don't thank me. You're quite welcome."

I opened my eyes and looked at her. Her purple mane was all poofy like Pinkie's and unless Pinkie's the one with it, it looks ridiculous!

"*SNORT*, HA HA, HA HA HA!"

I begin laughing uncontrollably feeling something land on me.

"Let me guess. You're Rainbow Dash." The unicorn said.

"The one and only. Why, you heard of me?" I said popping up.

"I heard you were supposed to be keeping the sky clear. *sigh* I'm Twilight Sparkle, and the Princess sent me to check on the weather."

"Yeah, yeah, that'll be a snap. I'll do it in a jiffy. Just as soon as I'm done practicing." I said as I flew up and lay down to a cloud.

"Practicing for what?"

"The Wonderbolts! They're gonna perform at the Celebration tomorrow, and I'm gonna show 'em my stuff!" Duh!

"The Wonderbolts?"

"Yep!"

"The most talented flyers in all of Equestria?"

"That's them!"

"Pfft! Please. They'd never accept a Pegasus who can't even keep the sky clear for one measly day."

What did she say!

"Hey, I could clear this sky in ten seconds flat."

"Prove it."

Challenge accepted!

I bashed the cloud I was sitting on as I flew all over town busting all the clouds.

"Loop the loop around, and wham!" I exclaimed as I busted the last cloud, "What'd I say? Ten. Seconds. Flat. I'd never leave Ponyville hanging." I looked over and saw both Twilight's and her little dragon friend's mouths hanging open, " He. You should see the look on your face. Ha! You're a laugh, Twilight Sparkle. I can't wait to hang out some more." I said taking off for my cloud house.

Why is Pinkie so obsessed with parties?

All four of my friends and I were hidden in the library waiting for Twilight to come in, along with half the town. We heard the door open and close and got ready. *Flick* The lights came on and...you can guess what happened.

"Surprise!"

Pinkie ran up to Twilight and started one of her trademark rants.

"Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie, and I threw this party just for you! Were you surprised? Were ya? Were ya? Huh huh huh?"

"Very surprised. Libraries are supposed to be quiet."

"Well, that's silly! What kind of welcome party would this be if it were quiet? I mean, duh, bo-ring! Y'see, I saw you when you first got here, remember? You were all "hello" and I was all *deep gasp*, remember? Y'see I've never saw you before and if I've never saw you before that means you're new, 'cause I know everypony, and I mean everypony in Ponyville!"

"Agh,"

"And if you're new, that meant you haven't met anyone yet, and if you haven't met anyone yet, you must not have any friends, and if you don't have any friends then you must be lonely, and that made me so sad, then I had an idea, and that's why I went *deep gasp*! I must throw a great-big-ginormous-super-duper-spectacular-welcome-party and invite everyone in Ponyville! See? And now you have lots and lots of friends!"

Thats when I realized Twi had gone and drank some hot sauce.

"Are ya all right, sugarcube?"

"Aww, she's so happy she's crying!" Said Pinkie as Twilights eyes watered and she shot up the stairs.

"Hot sauce". Said spike.

"What? It's good!"

I facehoofed "OH Pinkie!"

"Simmer down, Sally. She ain't no spy." said AJ pulling me out of Twilights face, "But she sure knows what's goin' on. Don't ya, Twilight?"

"I read all about the prediction of Nightmare Moon. Some mysterious objects called the Elements of Harmony are the only things that can stop her, but I don't know what they are, where to find them, I don't even know what they do!"

"The Elements of Harmony: A Reference Guide." Chirped Pinkie.

"How did you find that?!" Puzzled Twilight.

"It was under "Eeeee"!

"Oh." she said retrieving the book with her magic, "There are six Elements of Harmony, but only five are known: Kindness, Laughter, Generosity, Honesty and Loyalty. The sixth is a complete mystery. It is said, the last known location of the five elements was in the ancient castle of the royal pony sisters. It is located in what is now the Everfree forest."

OH, SOHN EINER VERDAMMTEN SCHLAMPE!! DU VERARSCHT MICH DOCH!!!(SON OF A FUCKING BITCH!! YOU GOTTA BE SHITTING ME!!)

CHAPTER 7: PONIES IRL. S**T
OUTSKIRTS
EVERFREE FOREST, EQUESTRIA
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 10, 2010
7:40 AM CST

Well this sucks. I thought to myself as we trudged through the everfree.

We had been going for at least half an hour now and had several things happen, including: Twilight falling off a cliff and being saved by AJ, me and Flutters, been attacked by a manticore which Fluttershy calmed, everybody but me got scared by some trees with faces which Pinkie laughed away, AND crossed a river after Rarity calmed the sea serpent who had lost his 'moostaash', I think he called it, now here we were trotting towards where we thought the ruins were.

"There it is, the ruin that holds The Elements of Harmony. We made it" Twi said rushing off towards them.

"Twilight, wait for us." AJ yelled after her.

She looked back at us and not where she was going "We're almost there. Whoa!"

"What's with you and falling off cliffs today?" I asked pulling her back from the broken bridge.

"*sigh* Now what?" Pinkie wondered.

"Duh." I said wiggling my wings

"OH ya!" Said pinkie as I flew down and brought the bridge back up to the other side. I had one rope tied when I heard something.

"Rainbow..." Who called my name?

"Who's there?"

"Rainbow..." the voice came again.

"I ain't scared of you! Show yourself!" I said taking up a fighting stance.

"We've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the best flyer in Equestria."

Wha?

"Who?"

Are they taking about me?

"Why, you of course."

"Really?! I mean... Oh yeah, me. Hey, uh, you wouldn't mind telling the Wonderbolts that, would ya? 'cause I've been trying to get into that group for like, ever."

"No, Rainbow Dash. We want you to join us, The Shadowbolts." The voice came as three ponies appeared in front of me looking like darker wonderbolts, "We're the greatest aerial team in the Everfree Forest, and soon we will be the greatest in all Equestria, but first, we need a captain. The most magnificent-"

"Yep."

"Swiftest-"

"Yes."

"Bravest flyer in all the land."

"Yes, hee hee, it's all true." I flamboyantly stated (Who says I don't know big words?).

"We need... you."

"WOOHOO! Sign me up. Just let me tie this bridge real quick and then we have a deal."

"No! It's them or us." Their leader stated.

"Rainbow, what's taking so long?" I heard a faint voice say.

Oh boy. What do I do? A spot on a elite flying team or my friends?

"Well?"

AH Hell wit it! I'm not leaving my friends, or my name isn't Rainbow Dash!

"You... Thank you! For the offer, I mean, but I'm afraid I have to say no." I said tying the bridge and flying back to my friends.

They started cheering.

"See? I'd never leave my friends hangin'!"

We cantered, or in my case, flew, over the bridge into the ruins.

"Whoa. Come on, Twilight. Isn't this what you've been waitin' for?" Exclaimed AJ as we walked into the ruin and saw a few carved stones on a pedestal.

"The Elements of Harmony, we've found them!" said Twilight as me and Flutters flew back and forth a few times depositing the stones on the ground.

"One, two, three, four... There's only five!" noted Pinkie.

Weren't there six?

"Where's the sixth?" I asked

"The book said: when the five are present, a spark will cause the sixth Element to be revealed."

"What in th' hay is that suppose to mean?" Asked a confused AJ.

"I'm not sure, but I have an idea. Stand back. I don't know what will happen." Ordered Twilight.

"Come on now, y'all. She needs to concentrate."

We left the room.

Suddenly there was a sound like a twister and a bright light coming from where we left Twi.

"Twilight!"

We rushed in to see a Twi jump into a twister which vanished.

"Twilight! Where are you?" Yelled AJ.

"LOOK!" Rarity yelled pointing at a ruined building a little ways away that's windows were glowing.

We all rushed out the door and ran in the direction of the building.

"unng"

I slowly got out of bed to do early morning weather pat-I mean, school.

WOW. Only one day that time. What an adventure!

We had gone into the building where we discovered Twilight facing off against Nightmare Moon. She then launched into a speech about friendship before showing that each of us represented an element of harmony, somehow (I wont even begin to pretend I know how magic works) causing a necklace to appear around each of our necks, and a tiara to appear on Twi's head. Then some sorta power came from the elements and hit Nightmare Moon with the best thing, a rainbow, causing her to turn back into Princess Luna. Afterwords I asked Twilight what her human name was. She was hesitant until I told her that I was a dude turned mare as well. Turns out she was my best friend as a human, Jonathan Bullock.

Anyway, I went through my boring human morning routine before stepping outside to go to school.

Now normally I get ready the fastest and end up standing outside with my thoughts for five minutes or so waiting for my brother, and my Mom to drive us to school. I stepped out and closed the door behind me, walking forward a few steps I ran into something invisible, or close to invisible actually. Did I mention it was a foggy day?

What the?

I thought while examining this fluffy feeling invisible wall.

Warte! It's not a wall! My pegasus magic! It's kicking in while I'm human. What the Buck!?

I quickly turned down my magic just like I would in Equestria, allowing me to walkthrough the clouds like a normal person. When I got to the edge of the walkway to the driveway I turned it back up and dug a mini tunnel until I was about six feet off the ground in clouds.

Ha. This is gonna scare the crap outta Aussi and Mom!

Now these aren't normal clouds, these are just wispy fog clouds. I started grabbing clouds off the sides of my 'tunnel' and compressing them until I had a wonderfully cartoonish cloud hovering about six feet off the ground.

The cool thing about pegasi magic is that any cloud you touch will stay still for five or so hours and you can adjust your magic thingy so you can walkthrough clouds by how dense they are. For instance in my case I could adjust so that I would sit on the denser cloud I made and let the fog just roll past.

So thats what I did.

Five minutes later I heard the door open but not close, so I sat up and looked to see Mom and Austin just staring at me.

"What?" I said with the most nonchalance I could muster.

Austin just deadpanned, "You're sitting on a cloud."

Looking at my cloud I feigned surprise, "So I am."

"How?" was all Mom could say.

hmmm...truth, half-truth, or lie? Ehh, half-truth.

"I have no idea." I said grabbing a dodgeball sized chunk and standing up before lifting my foot and smashing the cloud and dropping six feet. I took the cloud and put it in my backpack to show may friends (Technically not a lie, I have no idea how magic works).

I wonder if that means Kelsey and Jon can use their magic?

**************************************************

A HOUR LATER

Turns out yes, they could use their magic.

I walked into Intergraded class and sat in my usual desk next to Jon.

"So do you remember?" he asked, as he hadn't quite believed me in Equestria.

"Hell yeah. How would I forget that adventure, as a pegasus no less." I replied keeping my voice low for the last part. "By the way, you might want to see this." I said opening my backpack to show him the cloud. "I found my weather magic worked as a human for some reason." I told him grabbing the cloud and moving it around in my pack a little to show him. When he reached in his hand went right through it.

I saw that the teacher was ready and we went though the usual boring routine until we got our free time in the last 20 minutes in class. Beckoning Kels over from her seat at the back we moved over to the couch over on the side of the room.

"Whats up?" She asked as she walked over.

"This." I said showing her the cloud.

"So does that mean that your magic is working?"

"Seems that way."

"Well then let me try." Said Jon reaching into his pack and pulling out a pencil and putting it on my lap. He then thought for a sec before putting his hand out like Jedi do in Star Wars when using the force. His hand glowed purple like his\Twilights horn and the pencil was lifted up for a couple of seconds before dropping. Luckily no one saw it happen so Kels took a quick try achieving the same result except her magic was blue like her\Rarity's horn.

"Scheisse. Thats awesome." I said. Without wings my magic was useless unless it was foggy, which wasn't often.

"Well thats good to know." Said Kelsey.

"Yup."

Geez. It's been how long? Four months since I gained useless magical abilities? Still at least my Mom and Austin forgot the 'Cooper can walk on clouds' thing so quick.

I was in guitar class at school. We normally had free practice time so thats what I was doing.

"-ainbow Dash" I heard Ely call my name.

"What?" I said turning around and seeing Ely with a WTF face.

OKeyyy then. I thought turning back towards my phone which had some song chords on it.

"So Rainbow Dash wen-"

"What?" I said with annoyance in my voice.

"Is your name Rainbow Dash?" Asked Ely equally annoyed.

"Yup!" Wait. Oh, Scheisse!

"Really Cooper?"

"Umm...In a sense." Hell wit it. I'll tell him everything if he promises not to tell anyone. But how does he know about me? Is he a pony too?

"Listen, I'll explain if we go somewhere more private." Pointing to Kieran and Joel who Ely had been talking to about ME.

"Alright. I wanna hear this." He said as I lead him to the other side of the room away from anyone.

"Where did you hear that name?" I asked.

"Rainbow Dash is a character in a TV show called My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic."

"Wow, and what does she look like?" I asked, He's gonna say 'sky blue pegasus with a rainbow mane' isn't he?

"She's a sky blue pegasus with a rainbow mane" Called it.

"What the buck. How is this possible?"

"How is what possible?"

"I'm her."

"WHAT?!"

"You heard me."

"How?"

"I have no idea."

"What happened?"

"Well.......

*************************************************

"...And here I am."

"Wow. So, whenever you go to sleep you wake up as Rainbow and whenever you go to sleep as Rainbow you wake up as Cooper? But how do I know you're not B.S.ing me?"

"You know how Kels is Rarity?" Ely nodded, "Well, she'll probably slip like I did."

I quickly turned and shouted at her, "Hey! Rare!"

"Yes dear?" She said head turned in my direction, before she realized what had happened.

"Cooper!" She stood up and walked over.

"I thought we were keeping it a secret!"

"From everyone but Ely."

"Why?"

"Cause he's a...'Brony' I think you called it?"

"And what is a 'Brony'?"

"A dude who watches MLP:FIM (He said the full thing, I'm Just gonna put that to save me some typing from now on). It's a TV show about 6 mares who go on adventures and learn about friendship. Simplified, if Coop speaks the truth, its about you guys as ponies." Explained Ely.

"Yup."

"What? There's a TV show about us?"

"Here, I have an episode on my phone, it's called 'Sonic Rainboom.'"

"Huh. It's about my mental breakdown at the Best Young Flyers competition and Ms. Fancy-ass wings here isn't it?" I guessed earning a death-glare from Kels.

"Yup. Either you're secretly a brony, or you're telling the truth."

I reached down and grabbed my cloud out of my backpack and held it for him to see.

"What's that?" he asked puzzled.

"A cloud." I told him in my most neutral voice.

"How?"

"Our magic abilities carried over somehow." This cloud has been around for quite a while now.

Ely reached out and touched the cloud but of course went right through. Kels then grabbed his phone out of his hands to demonstrate her magic abilities.

"Watch the video on there and tell me how accurate it is." He said in a stunned voice.

20 minutes later after the video ended I was in shock.

That's exactly what happened! What the hell!?

"Well?" asked Ely as he came walking over.

"That is exactly what happened!" I blurted. "Hey! I know how to prove to you that that's us! The next time I know I'm on screen I'll say 'Hi Ely!' OK?"

"Cool!"

MY HOUSE
PONYVILLE, EQUESTRIA
SATURDAY, MAY 7, 2011
10:13 PM CST

Sometimes I wish I could stay as a pony when I wake up as a human.

Two days ago had been the Grand Galloping Gala. Hell we fucked that up pretty bad. I had also heard from Ely that yesterday had been the season finale for MLP and our many fuck ups at the gala had been the focus, Yay.

The episode that I randomly spouted Ely's name had ended up as 'A Dog and Pony Show'. Heh, I loved it as Twi was stating the friendship lesson I just popped up in a 'Pinkie Pie' manner and said 'Hey Ely!' before popping back down, earning five hilarious 'WTF?' faces from my friends.

Anyway I jumped in my cloud bed and promptly fell asleep of course slowly waking back up in my bed in Vancouver.

"Cooper. Time to get up!" came my mom as she poked her head in my room to wake me up, as always.

"K just a sec."

"Cooper?" She asked as she came further into my room.

"What?" I said, still groggy from me just waking up.

"Oh my god!"

Now I was getting scared, sitting up in my bed I asked, "What?! What happen..."

Thats when I noticed my voice was not my regular human one, nor was my body.

OH! Wha? (Warning! Warning! Brain Malfunction)

"I...I'm...I'm Rainbow Dash. I...I'm Rainbow...HOLY-SHIT-I-TURNED-INTO-RAINBOW-DASH!!"

MY HOUSE

MONDAY, MAY 8, 2011
7:32 AM PDT

"OhmygoshohmygoshOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!!"

I threw my covers off me and moved to a sitting position on my bed while looking over my body. Hooves, tail, cutie mark, wings, and blue fuzz all over, it was all here. MY pony body.

I looked over back at my Mom's face which was contorted in confusion.

"OK. WOW. Just...WOW." Was all I could get my mouth to say as my brain was still trying to comprehend what happened.

"What have you done with my son!?"

"WHAT!? Mom it's me! Cooper! I didn't do anything! I just woke up this morning and my body has changed on me!"

"Cooper? What happened?"

"I have no vögeln idea!"

Schiesse! My friends are probably in the same position I am!

"Mom? I gotta go, I'll be back in an hour!" I told her as I hovered past her towards the stairs. Then I noticed Austin's door was still closed.

*mischievous giggle*

I flew over to Aussi's door and used my hooves to open his door (Magnet hooves. I will never understand them). Then I flew as fast as I could and landed on the lump of him in his bed.

"Einstein. Get off." He said groggily mistaking me for our cat.

"Hey bro! Time to get up for school!"

"WHATTHEF...uck?! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!" He yelled getting a look at me

"Your brother, well, sister now." I said as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

"C-Cooper?"

"Yeah? What? You never seen a talking pegasus before? Oh of course you haven't."

"H-how?"

"I have. no. bucking. idea!"

"Did you just use 'buck' as a swear?"

"Ummm. Yup. Let's just say I go to sleep, I am human. I wake up, I am pony."

"Okeyyy then?"

"Anyway gotta go, see ya later!" I said going and opening the window before jumping out and spreading my wings.

"HA HA HA! That was priceless!" I giggled as I thought back to Austin's face.

Anyway, I gotta go find my friends and see if the changed into their pony forms too.

I got to Jonathan's house in thirty seconds or so hugging the ground and going just under the speed of sound as to avoid being detected. I flew into his backyard and flew up to his second story bedroom window. I saw something I half expected but still surprised me; Twilight lying on Jon's bed. I knocked on the window causing Twi's to look in my direction with a look of relief on her face. Her horn glowed and the window to click and slide open while engulfed in Twi's magic.

"Hey Twilight! Wazzup?" I said flying into the room and sitting on the floor.

"Oh, nothing, other than me waking up in my pony body!"

"Ah well, now you can do magic at least. And I can be the total awesome badass that I am!"

"I guess." She said giggling, "So why are you here?"

"I was just gonna get all six of us over to my house so we can try to figure what's going on."

"Good idea...Rainbow? How are you taking this? I figure I'm not taking it vary well myself."

"Well, I've just gained the ability to fly at mach 10, aaand I've probably gained celebrity status with Bronys...I mean, sure I had to get a sex change along with that but, eh, I'm cool with it."

"Really?"

"Yup. How bout you?"

"I'm still mourning the loss of my manhood and fingers."

"Oh too bad, anyway can you introduce me to your mom? I wanna see the look on her face!"

"Oh, Ok. Mom! Shining! Can you come here please?" She called out.

Shining? Oh yea Twilight's brother she mentioned a few times. Josh must be Shining. I thought to myself thinking of Jon's little bro, Well big bro now. Ha, that would suck if Aussi was suddenly my older brother!

Then the door handle glowed with magic and it opened revealing Shining Armour.

"Hey Twili what's going on? Oh!" he said as he spotted me and a confused look came over his face before seeing the open window, "Ah. Rainbow Dash is it?" he asked.

Obviously watched the show. Then again who wouldn't watch to learn some stuff that you wouldn't have known otherwise.

"The one and only!" I proudly declared in my usual fashion, "You're Shining Armour right? Twi has told me about you."

"Heh, so who were you last night?" He asked.

"Well Josh, my human name is Cooper."

"You always did love flying and were full of yourself so that makes sense."

"Jonathan? Josh? Did you call me?" came the voice of Lori, Jon's Mom.

"Yes. We're in here." Called Twi.

"What is it...Hello? And who would your friend here be?" She asked upon seeing me.

"I'm Rainbow Dash. (Hell I love saying that.) I'm the fastest flyer in Equestria!"

"Who were you last night though?" She asked slipping into protective Mom mode.

"Oh just boring old Cooper."

"Cooper! You too?"

"Ya. Anyway, let's go get the rest of our friends and see if this happened to them too. Twi, you teleport over to Ben's backyard, I'll fly over. As soon as I leave the window count to thirty and then teleport over, OK?" I said not giving her a chance to respond as I flared my wings and zipped out of the window and flew towards Ben's house.

HAHAHAHA!! I love the look on people's faces when I tell them who I am! Bucking priceless!!

I arrived at Ben's house at roof hight and flew down into the backyard to land. I waited a couple seconds before there was a flash and Twilight appeared.

"What took you so long?" I joked before telling her to go up on the deck and I flew around to the front door ringing the doorbell.

The door opened revealing Sue, Ben's Mom.

"Hi!" I said in my most cheerful voice possible, "Is Ben here?"

"Yes, he is." She replied seeming shaken by my sudden appearance. It's not like a pastel pegasus shows up at your door every day.

"Cool" I said sooting over her shoulder and flying up the stairs before she could stop me. I stopped when I saw a certain yellow creature hiding behind it's mane.

"Fluttershy!" She opened her eyes at the sound of my voice and looked absolutely relieved.

"Rainbow! Oh my goodness! I'm so happy I'm not alone!" she said zipping over and grabbing me in a bear hug.

"Good to see you too Flutters."

*************************************************

MY HOUSE
VANCOUVER B.C., CANADA
THURSDAY, MAY 11, 2011
5:56 PM PDT

It had been three days since I woke up as RD, now I was about to do something either brilliant, or downright stupid depending on your point of view.

After we had picked up Flutters, Twi teleported us to each of our friends houses before taking us all to my house, we all then talked but couldn't figure out why we transformed. Every night we still woke up in Equestria, and the only change was that we were ponies in both worlds now. Plus the public would find out eventually so I was going to buzz downtown Vancouver.

I stepped outside and grabbed my iPod out of my saddle bags that Rare had made for me. Now the annoying thing is my hoof is too big and the touch screen doesn't recognize it (Insert sad face here *giggle*) so I found if I held it off to my side with one hoof I could operate it with the tip of my wing. I put in the ear buds and looked for a song I wanted.

Coldplay? Nah. Bon Jovi? Nah. AC DC? Why the heck not?

I found my favourite song of all time and which also goes good with flying at the same time.

Quickly pressing play I stepped out the door and walked out into an open area I could take off from. I stretched my wings and made sure my saddlebags were secure. As soon as the beat dropped I took off like a shot and flew towards downtown at nought feet dodgeing trees and buildings.

All you women who want a man of the street
Don't know which way you wanna turn
Just keep coming
And put your hand out to me
Cause I'm the one who's gonna make you burn
I'm gonna take you down
Down down down
So don't you fool around
I'm gonna pull it pull it
Pull the trigger

I whizzed in between some trees and saw a large 747 commercial jet heading towards the airport about 3000 feet above and headed for it.

Shoot to thrill play to kill
Too many women too many pills, yeah
Shoot to thrill play to kill
I got my gun at the ready gonna fire at will

Arriving at the 787 I flew alongside and waved to the people inside, earning stares form everyone on board before barrel rolling over to the other side. After repeating the process I dove away and continued my flight.

I'm like evil I get under your skin
Just like a bomb that's ready to blow
Cause I'm illegal
I got everything
That all you women might need to know
I'm gonna take you down
Yeah down, down, down
So don't you fool around

I arrived at the downtown area and as the chorus came up I dove down into the maze of glass and concrete bobbing and weaving.

I'm gonna pull it, pull it
Pull the trigger
Shoot to thrill play to kill
Too many women too many pills
Shoot to thrill play to kill
I got my gun at the ready gonna fire at will
Cause I shoot to thrill and I'm ready to kill
I can't get enough and I can't get my fill
Shoot to thrill play to kill

A left here. Right, and straight up the face of this skyscraper!

Pull the trigger, pull it
Pull it pull it
Pull the trigger

Going over the top of the skyscraper I folded in my wings and plummeted back down I spread them just before the ground and whizzed along the street dodging wires and other obstacles.

Shoot to thrill play to kill
Too many women too many pills
Shoot to thrill play to kill
I got my gun at the ready gonna fire at will

Gaining some altitude I flew around the sky deck on the harbour centre building and flew across the city.

Cause I shoot to thrill and I'm ready to kill
I can't get enough and I can't get my fill
Cause I shoot to thrill play to kill

I pulled out of the sky scrapers and hovered over false creek. And enjoyed the view for a bit. Thats when I heard a familiar voice.

"Nice flying there, you wanna race?"

Shoot you down, yeah

I turned around to see none other than Spitfire, captain of the Wonderbolts, hovering behind me.

I'm gonna get you down on the bottom girl
Shoot you, I'm gonna shoot you

"Hell yea!"

"Once around along the sea wall then through the middle down Burrard st."

"Sure!"

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

"Alright then ready?"

"I'm always ready!"

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm gonna shoot you down, yeah yeah

"Ready, set.....GO!!" said Spit and we both took off

I'm gonna get you down, down down down down

I pumped my wings for everything I had and dove down towards the seawall.

Shoot you, shoot you, shoot you, shoot you down,

Spit was just in front of me as we raced over the seawall that encircles Vancouver.

Shoot you, shoot you, shoot you down

We went so fast that we had gone around in less than a minute and as we arrived at where we started we turned and flew down Burrard street, which is basically Van's Main road through the middle of Downtown

I'm gonna shoot to thrill
Play to kill

I flew as fast as my wings would go and was surprised as a sonic cone began to form around me.

HELLLLL yea! I thought as I broke mach five and did a Sonic-Rainboom.

Shoot to thrill!!!

Oooppppss. Heh. Hope I didn't break any windows!

I flew into a vertical climb and killed my speed before spotting Spit sitting on the roof of the sky deck looking over the city. I flew over and landed beside her. We sat in silence looking at the view for a while before I spoke up.

"So how are you taking this?" I asked.

"I'm not happy about it, but I'm not hating it. I'm sorta in the middle. What about you?" She asked.

"I like it."

"Really?"

"Well yea! Duh! I'm Mother-bleepin Rainbow Dash!"

"Well, you just did a Sonic-Rainboom so I can see your point."

I smiled at that, How come I'm not trying to do one it's easy, and when I'm trying it's more difficult?

"Who were you before this started?" I asked.

"Oh I'm Tasha Miller. I'm a CF-18 pilot. I was on leave when this happened." She said indicating herself.

"Cooper Bogart," I stated shaking hooves, "I was only in grade ten, but I prefer Rainbow Dash now. Damn, thats what I was hoping I could do when I got out of school."

"Oh, were you a...were you male before this?"

"Sadly yes. Thats the only thing I don't like about it. 'The pros out-weigh the cons' though, as my Grade eight socials teacher would tell me."

"Wow, that...sucks."

"Eh, I can fly and I'm famous now so I don't really care."

"Are the other Elements here as well?"

"Ya, they were my five best friends even before we discovered we were, well, ponies." I finished as I heard a dull roar behind us.

We turned our heads to look and saw a pair of CF-18 fighter jets flying high above.

"Huh? We must've looked an awful lot like cruise missiles on radar when we were flying around." I guessed.

"Probably. You wanna say hi?"

"Sure. Ten bucks says they roll and dump flares when we get close!"

"HA! I'll take you up on that offer Dash. Here." She said pulling a radio headset out of her saddlebag and tossing it to me. "I had a couple at my house and I thought they would be useful. Set the dial on the side to six, that's the channel we use in our jets. Oh also my voice didn't change at all so if they're from my squadron they'll recognize me"

"OK." That was a lot of info very fast!

"Hello? This is Spitfire. Anyone read me? Over." she said turning on her headset.

"Spitfire this is Rapier 2-1: Tasha that you? Over."

"Same-old Miller. What you guys doing here? Over" She asked as she used ha-hoof signals to tell me to follow her as we took off towards the jets.

"Oh just recon. Local radar detected something that looked like a pair of cruise missiles flying around...Shit! We got SAMs incoming! Over!"

"Calm down! Thats just me! Over."

"WHAT?!?! Tash, I'm pretty sure you can't fly under your own power, let alone be the size of a missile! Over!"

"You'd be surprised. Over."

"What is that supposed to mean? Over."

"This." she said as we began flying along-side the jets.

'Miller' did a double take before sliding his helmet's visor up. "Dave? Am I high right now?"

"No. Why? Over." came the other fighter pilots reply.

"Us." was all I said as I barrel rolled over the first jet so I was in between them.

"...Noah? Did the flying horse just talk? Over?"

"One, I'm a pony, a pegasus to be exact. And two, yes I did." I said to them.

"Miller, I may have to do some explaining, won't I?" said Spit.

"Tash? You're a pony?"

"Yup. How fast are we going?" Spitfire asked prompting 'Noah Miller' to look forward at his HUD.

"Holy shit! How the hell are you guys keeping up?! We're going almost thousand one hundred K an hour!"

"Magic!" I said in my most mysterious voice, "Actually really powerful wings. I can go mach ten when I really get going!" I said proudly.

"Miller, those 'cruise missiles' were actually us having a race."

I quickly checked my watch I had worn today and saw it was almost eight. Damn I gotta head home soon. Mom'll kill me.

"Hey Spitfire? I have to head home soon."

"Alright Rainbow. Meet you on top of the sky deck tomorrow?"

"Sure. See ya guys." I said as I rolled upside down and angled my wings up entering a straight down dive.

Seemed like nice guys, hell I hope that the government doesn't send 'men in black' after us. LOL. Holy crap. I'm starting to sound like a teenage girl. I technically am at the moment. As RD I'm nineteen. Wait. Is nineteen teenager. I thought as I let my brain do whatever it felt like while I flew home.

Well I forgot to do this so I'm doing it now.

Chapter 9: Yeah, I'm a pony, you gotta problem with that?

CHAPTER 9: YEAH, I'M A PONY, YOU GOTTA PROBLEM WITH THAT?
A CLOUD
VANCOUVER B.C., CANADA
FRIDAY, MAY 12, 2011
3:22 AM PDT

Ely's gonna be ecstatic or scared shitless when his favourite character appears out of no where!

I was sitting on a cloud above the usual route Ely took to walk home from school. I had decided to text him and have him bring all my friends that hadn't gone pony, which he agreed to do, now all I had to do was wait...And stay awake at the same time. When your an ultra-athletic pegasus like me, it's hard, mainly because of my large lungs meant for high altitude get too much oxygen down here near the ground, and it makes me sleepy. But I digress.

I saw Ely come around the corner followed by my friends Erwin, Quince, Bailey, and Jonah, who isn't so much my friend as he is a brony. The only things worth mentioning are that Erwin is asian and Jonah is the only person in my grade who was taller than me as a human.

I let them pass beneath me before I called out.

"Hey Ely! Whats up?" I asked flying down to a tree branch just behind them.

He tuned around to look but didn't look up. Getting a confused look I decided to give him a little help.

"Up here genius!" his head snapped up and his mouth went the other direction when he saw me.

"R-r-rainbow Dash!?"

Regular or New? Regular. "The one and only!"

"Guys, am I hallucinating?"

"Not if your seeing Rainbow Dash sitting in a tree." Jonah told him.

"Ha! I've been getting that a lot over the past few days! Before you go asking questions let's just say that four days ago I woke up in my pony body and I've been RD since."

"Wait? Your pony body?.......COOPER?!"

"Yup." I said flying down to ground level and landing in front of them.

"Holy shit that's so cool!" Exclaimed Jonah. Oh if that impresses you...

I leaped up and did a loop sending me speeding towards them before doing a barrel roll and and Immelmann before diving back down and coming to a hover in front of them.

All of their jaws were hanging wide open.

"Ha Ha! You should see the look on your face! Ely? You mind telling them what I told you a couple months back?" I asked, flying up and grabbing a cloud.

"Uhh...Sure." He said after staring in wonder at my cloud I brought down.

HEE HEE! I love the look people give me when I interact with clouds!

After Ely finished telling them about my dream/other-body/what-ever-you-want-to-call it, Jonah walked up and started asking me questions about pretty much everything a brony could ask if they met a real pony, like: "Whats it like to do a Sonic-Rainboom? How big is your cloud house? What does magic feel like? What does a cloud feel like?"

This went on for about ten minutes before I had to leave to go meet Spitfire again.

I as I flew towards downtown Vancouver, I thought about my friends and how they were taking all this. Fluttershy, Rarity, and Twilight took it hard and would scarcely leave their rooms for the first three days. AJ didn't get worked up about it but wasn't happy about it either. I knew I was the happiest about it and Pinkie? Well, she was being Pinkie.

Even if Twi figures how to change us back, I'm good. I'd rather be Rainbow Dash than boring old Cooper!

I arrived over the downtown area and flew over to the sky deck and spotted Spit sitting there. She saw me and beckoned me to follow her. We flew to an apartment building and we went in a window.

"Dash, I'd like you to meet Noah Miller and Dave Gunderson. Noah and Dave, this is Rainbow Dash." Spitfire introduced us.

Looking at the two, Noah was definitely the same pilot of the fighter jet 'Rapier 2-1' we had encountered yesterday.

"Hey. You were the guys in the CF-18s we saw yesterday." I said.

"Yup." They both replied.

"HA HA HA! 'Am I high?'. Oh dude, that cracked me up!" I said giggling.

"Well Tash-"

"Well Spitfire." Spit corrected.

"Why do you wanna go by your pony name? Ah, whatever. Like I was saying, where did you find her?"

"Oh, flying around downtown. Why?"

"Just wondering."

Cliché time! "Are you a SPY?" I said getting in Dave's face, "Well are you?"

"NO!"

"Dash. Get out of Dave's face. They aren't spies."

"He he. Sorry, guess I'm a little paranoid about some 'Men in Black' or something like that." I said.

Right about then, my sensitive ears swivelled and I noticed the sound of wind whistling and a large object whizzed past the third story window.

'BOOM-CRASH-SCREEEEEEEEeeeee'

Scheisse!

Author's Note

Well...Yay short chapter.

I'm gonna be gone on vacation from today for a week. I'll type on the iPad but I wont have any wi-fi so I'll post it when I came home.

On another subject, I just came home from BronyCan!(Canadian BronyCon) I bought a RD flash drive and a plushy. SOOOOOO much fun!

Chapter 10: Ponies and (crashed) planes

[AUTHORS NOTE: I wasn't satisfied with chapter 9 so I redid part of it so you should go and take a look so this chapter will make sense]

CHAPTER 10: PONIES AND (CRASHED) PLANES
SPITFIRE'S APARTMENT
DOWNTOWN VANCOUVER, B.C. CANADA
THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2011
6:19 PM PDT

Scheisse!

"What the hell was that!?" Yelled a confused Dave.

"Dash! Come on! That was an airliner! We gotta save those people!" Ordered Spitfire as she jumped out the window and flew towards the wreckage with me right behind.

Holy shit!

The plane was lying at an angle resting on its left wingtip while the other wing was completely missing. We saw people leaving the plane and moving a safe distance from the plane as the engine that was still attached was on fire and looked like it was going to explode at any second. We flew up to the maimed fuselage and went inside. I saw that there were still twenty or so passengers who had been knocked unconscious by the hard landing. We each unfastened the seatbelt of a passenger and flew them out before placing them with the other survivors a good distance away.

On my third trip I picked up a young girl and was about to take flight when I heard a gasp from the little figure on my back as she woke up.

"Rainbow Dash? Y-you're real!"

"I sure am! Now hold on kid!" I warned her.

I felt her arms wrap around my neck as I took flight and flew over to where we were putting the survivors.

"Rainbow? Where are my parents?"

"We're they sitting next to you?" I asked getting a nod in return. "Don't worry, I'll get them out. Pinkie promise." I said while going through the motions earning a giggle from the girl.

After two minutes we had gotten everyone but the pilots. I went in and put the pilot on my back while Spit got the co-pilot. As I went out the door and took off I felt heat on my back an instant before the shockwave and sound hit me and caused me with my heavy cargo to lose control. I entered a nosedive and couldn't pull up in time before I hit the ground.

That's when a chunk of hot metal decided to land on me.

**************************************************

VANCOUVER GENERAL HOSPITAL (VGH)
DOWNTOWN VANCOUVER, B.C. CANADA
SATURDAY, MAY 13, 2011
10:37 AM PDT

Ung! My head.

Slowly opened my eyes and saw I was in some sort of hospital room by the look of it.

"Ah! Ms. Dash, finally awake I see!" Said a cheery doctor in a british accent as he strode into the room, "I must say, I've never had a sapient pony as a patient before though. You took quite the knock to the head there. Your name is Rainbow Dash isn't it?"

"Yup. Uggh. What happened?" I asked.

"Well, according to eyewitnesses, you and your compatriot saved twenty people before the fuel exploded. You were just flying out the door when it happened and you were knocked to the ground, then a chunk of metal landed on top of you knocking you out cold and giving you first degree burns over several parts of your body, as well as breaking your left wing."

Burns!? Oh shit!

I looked down and saw several patches of my fur was shaved with angry red skin underneath.

"How long was I out?"

"About fifteen hours."

"Wait! What about Spitfire? She was behind me!"

"Oh, so that's her name. She was fine other than a slight singeing of her tail and a few bruises. She didn't have a large piece of metal land on her though. Just no scratching or using your wing for a few weeks. Also no sudden movement as you have quite the concussion."

"And that's where you're wrong doc."

"Pardon?"

"We ponies heal really fast. My wing should be better in a day and I'll be able to fly in a week, and my burns should heal in three days. Well, at least that's what I learned in school."

'Knock-knock-knock'

"Yes?"

"There is a visitor here for Rainbow Dash." Said a nurse who poked her head in.

"Well I'll get out of your way then." Said the doctor.

"Wait! How did you know my name?"

"Have you heard of a brony?" I nodded, "My fifteen year old son is one. You are his favourite character."

As the doctor left the room a certain yellow pegasus stunt flyer stepped in.

"Dash! Your awake! You took quite the hit there."

"Yup! That's me, Ms. Get-crushed-and-come-out-fine!"

"Real funny Dash! How long you stuck here?"

"Doc said a week, but they've never had a pony for a patient so they don't know about how fast we heal, so I figure a couple days."

"Yeah, one of the perks of turning into a pony, especially a pegasus, being able to hit a tree while doing five hundred K an hour and get right back up."

Right then a nurse poked her head in the door, "Excuse me but a journalist is asking for an interview, is that okey?"

"Well, we were going to become public knowledge sooner or later, sure let them, in but only one of them." I said.

A couple minutes later a blond woman who looked like she was in her thirties stepped into the room with a brown haired man who looked about the same age who was carrying a camera.

"Hello, I'm Samantha Reaves of the Vancouver Sun."

"Nice to meet you." I said extending a hoof, "Names Rainbow Dash, I'm the fastest flyer in Equestria! And this is Spitfire, the Captain of the Wonderbolts!"

"Nice to meet you too. I have just a few questions. First, why are you here?"

"Ummm. Because I got crushed by a hot steel panel."

"Oh. Maybe I should have been more specific. Why are you here, as in this planet?"

"Oh, uh... I have no idea. How bout you Spit?" I asked.

"I have no idea either." She replied.

"Ok...then how did you get here?"

"Umm, yea, about that," I hesitated, "We were humans...five days ago? Yea, that's right. I just woke up on ------ and I was in my pony body."

"Wait, you just woke up and found your bodies were that of your pony bodies?" I nodded, "That would mean that you had these bodies before."

"I have a story to tell don't I?" I sighed.

"It would seem so Dash." Said Spit in an amused tone.

"Buck. All right well it all started on September twenty third..."

**************************************************

"Wow. That sucks!" Said the photographer.

"Dude, that was the first thing you've said this whole time!"

"Well I normally don't say anything, but you having a forced sex change?! Ouch!"

"Ah, I don't mind, like I said to Spitfire, I can fly at mach ten and I'm probably going to be a celebrity with Bronys. I honestly prefer this body to my human one."

"Really!?"

"Yup. Some of the other ponies took it harder than me and Spit here though. Twi wouldn't leave her room for almost three days afterwords."

"Well thank you for your time Ms. Dash."

"No prob." I said as she and her photographer left.

"Tomorrow the city will know about us, and we will likely be swamped in bronys and little girls." Complained Spitfire.

"Ok, I would say something involving 20 percent cooler, but I'm not getting anything so, what can we do."

"Good point."

"Hey, Spit? Could you give me your phone for a couple minutes? I wanna call my parents."

"Sure." she said hoofing over her iPhone.

I quickly dialled my home number and was answered by my Mom.

"Hello?"

"Hi Mom, you're probably wondering where I am, aren't you?"

"Cooper? What happened?"

"Did you hear about that plane crash in Stanley Park? Me and Spitfire were rescuing people when the fuel went up. I got drilled by a steel panel. I'm in the hospital right now but I'm gonna be fine OK?"

"OK it's good to hear your all right. How long do you have to stay?"

"Oh I figure tomorrow morning."

"All right, see you then."

I ended the call.

Author's Note

He he. Sorry bout being a little late with this, and about it being slightly shorter. I didn't write as much as I wanted to.

If it helps I'll probably post another chapter tomorrow.

Chapter 11: Dogfight over Ponyville

CHAPTER 11: DOGFIGHT OVER PONYVILLE
MY DREAM
SKYS ABOVE
PONYVILLE, EQUESTRIA

Now I should explain the switching between Equestria and Canada better shouldn't I? The way it works is when I go to sleep my conscience switches bodies or something like that, (I wasn't listening to Twi when she was explaining) then I'm actually asleep in that body for about an hour before I wake up. Therefore I can still dream, and that night in the hospital, I had one hell of a dream...

I opened my eyes and spotted some green thing in front of me. I blinked a few times and it came into focus. It was a CF-18 heads up display.

Wha? Why am I in a fighter jet? In my human body?

I looked around me and saw I was at the head of a formation of twelve CF-18s.

"Blackout leader, we have fifty-plus bandits coming over the coast approximately two hundred kilometres east of Ponyville angels thirty-five."

And why are we using World War two radio discipline? Well, I guess I'm the leader so thats me. Hmmm, Blackout? Oh yes, the controller is Kenway. Lets see if all that simulator time payed off.

"Roger Kenway. Blackout vector seventy degrees to port."

Good thing I know about WWII radio callsigns.

I took inventory and saw that my plane was equipped with nine sidewinder heatseeking missiles and the standard M61A1 Vulcan gatling. Right then I saw my radar had picked up a large formation of aircraft a hundred kilometres off my nose.

"Alright Blackout. Lock in, here we go! Blue and Yellow sections break on my go, Reds stay with me." I ordered as my section leaders acknowledged.

I took the squadron up sun of the enemy formation who didn't appear to have any radar. We got into position and saw it was a mixed formation of about forty Su-34 'Fullback' strike aircraft and ten Su-35 'Flanker' fighters for escort.

Just before we were going to attack my earphones came alive with missile warnings. I looked behind me to see another thirty 'Flankers' diving on us, along with several missiles.

"Shit! Break! Break! Break! Red go after the strike bombers! Blue and Yellow kill those fighters!" I yelled in my headset as I rolled over and dumped flares before kicking in full afterburner.

'BOOM!'

"Blue four is down!"

The four planes of my section broke with Red Two sticking to me while Red Four stuck with Three as we plunged into the bombers. I lined up a 'Fullback' in my sights and fired a quick burst into it's right wing root blowing off the wing before rolling right and ("Fox two!") blasting another with an AIM-9 do. Then a few 'thirty-mil' rounds went cracking past just above the cockpit canopy.

FUCK!!

I jerked the stick right before pulling hard and almost blacking out. I looked over my shoulder before reversing and cueing my radio.

"Red Two! Where are you!?"

"On his six boss! He's following you closely so its hard to get a shot off!" Came a slightly panicked voice.

"Well maybe this will help." I muttered to myself as I cut the engine and eased back on the stick causing my jet to bring the nose up and 'skid' with the nose at about thirty degrees off level through the air.

I watched as the 'Flanker' whizzed past before kicking in my afterburners and acquiring a tone on the enemy.

'Beep-Beep-Beep-Bee-BEEEEEEEEEP'

"Fox two!" I said as my Sidewinder streaked straight and true right down his tailpipe before detonating and reducing the fighter to scrap metal.

The next two minutes became a blur as fighter jets criss-crossed the sky in contrails.

"Blue Three is down! Blue Three is down!" Dammnit!

"Fox two!"

"Yellow three, get him offa me!"

"Scratch two 'Flankers'!"

"Fuck! I'm Ejecting!"

"Red four's Ejected!"

"Blackout leader, be advised, you have Hunter squadron joining the fray in their F-16s."

"Roger Kenway!"

"Red one! I could use you help right about now!" Came the call from the now wingmanless Red three as he streaked out of a cloud a couple miles ahead with a Flanker firmly planted on his six.

"Two, take it!" I told my wingman.

"Roger..........Fox two!" He said sending a missile streaking towards the offending jet.

'BOOM!'

"Splash one Flanker!" Two exclaimed as I turned back towards the fur ball of jets.

"Hunter lead to Blackout."

"Go ahead Hunter!" I said through clenched teeth as I pulled another hard turn while dumping flares to avoid another missile.

"Do you want to take the 'Thirty-fours' or 'fives'?"

"We got the Flankers Hunter! Kill those Fullbacks!"

"Roger!"

"Red one break right!" Came the call from my wingman. I instantly jammed the stick right and pulled back, entering a hard right-hand turn.

"He followed me Boss! A little help please?"

I rolled my jet back and looked for Two. I spotted him heading perpendicular to me off to the left with a 'Thirty-five' on his tail. I began to roll towards the pair when I glimpsed a red stripe on the edge of the enemy pilots cockpit. That was just before the jet launched a heat seeker. Two rolled and dumped flares but the missile slammed into the jet just in front of the engines resulting in a huge fireball.

YOU FUCKING SONOFABITCH!

I flew at him head-on at full afterburner, pulling the trigger and launching a missile. He dodged left causing it to miss before I rolled and leached on to his tail. He began trying to shake me by doing Immelmann's and rolls of all sorts before he did something only a Su-35 can do: Pugachev's Cobra. The jet's nose came way up past ninety degrees while continuing flying straight causing it to dump all of its speed and end up behind me.

Shit!

I quickly put my stick over until I was upside down before pulling back and entering a power dive.

Thats when something exploded and my jet supposedly became a fireball.

Holy Shit!

But I wouldn't know, as I woke up in my cloud house just outside Ponyville.

"Whahhhh! O-ok...C-calm down Rainbow...Just a dream!" I reassured myself.

I made my way downstairs and got a bowl of cereal and began to eat.

'Thump-Thump-Thump' Who would be here at nine in the morning?

I hovered over to the door and opened it revealing a certain yellow pegasus.

"H-hello Rainbow."

"Hey Fluttershy."

"Ummm, Twilight would like us all at the library, if...thats not too much...to ask."

"Nah, it's cool Flutters. Tell Twi I'll be there in thirty." I said before shutting the door.

I feel like shit. I thought as I made my way to my bathroom. Looking at my reflection, another thought popped into my head: I look like shit.

***************************************************

I arrived at the library to see all five of my friends were already there.

"Well girls, now that Rainbow's here we can begin." Stated Twilight.

"And what would that be darling?" asked Rarity.

"After what has happened with us having our human bodies switched for our pony bodies, I did a survey to find out if anyone else in Ponyville has gone through the same thing. Turns out, everyone the age of sixty or below has gone through the same thing."

"Really!?" Squealed Pinkie.

"But thats not all, I found that about fifty percent of the ponies had the opposite sex than the ones they were as humans. And all of them were from the South Greater Vancouver area. Therefore it seems that this area is the Ponyville equivalent, while Canterlot's equivalent appears to be Downtown Vancouver from the five or so Canterlonians that I've asked."

Author's Note

Or maybe I'll procrastinate for three days before posting :P

Well, new name for myself (The Rainbow Brony [still pretty close to my original though]), new cover and profile pics. New everything.

I'm gonna do something like the following in every chapter from now on just because I can:

Todays question: Who is your favourite pony? (mine is pretty obvious)

Chapter 12: Tell the world

THE LIBRARY
PONYVILLE, EQUESTRIA
THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2011
9:47AM

"So, you mean that all of the ponies are in the same sorta situation as us?" I asked Twilight.

"If they're under the age of sixty as a pony, then yes. And all of their 'dreams' started how ever many days their age is minus two in years before October 10, 2010."

"And what in tarnation' does that mean?" Asked a puzzled AJ.

"*Sigh* It means that...on second thought, AJ how old are you?"

"Human or Pony?"

"Pony."

"Then Ah'm Twenty-one. What does that have ta' do wit' it?"

"Well, then according to my formula, this all started for you on September 21, correct?"

"Umm yeah. How'd ya know?"

"Well, all this starts on that day of your fourth year of a ponies life, A.K.A. when little ones begin getting life long memories, as well as that date in 2010 as a human. Basically, since this started on that day you take your pony age as of your transformation, figure out how many years ago you were four that number of years plus two extra days and you have how many days before October 10 your dreams started."

"Wow. I wonder who Vinyl is?" I taught out loud, wondering who my DJ friend was as a human.

"Do ya know why this is happening sugarcube?" Asked AJ.

"NO! And that's the worst part! I dont have any idea WHY!" Yelled Twi, who was starting to go into 'freak-out mode'.

"Twilight dear! Please calm down. Just because you don't know is not a reason to get your tail in a twist." Admonished Rarity.

"Are we done? I wanna go talk to Vinyl and practice some new tricks!" I stated impatiently.

"In a minute Rainbow." Said the now-slightly-less-freaking-out Twilight. "Theres one other thing to discuss, and that is how we are going to reveal ourselves to the public."

"Oh, I kinda already did that." I told them, "Did I mention I'm in hospital back in Vancouver?"

"WHAT!?!?"

"Oh...my, what happened Rainbow?" Came Flutters quiet voice.

"Well..."

***************************************************

"And that's why I'm spending the night in hospital."

"Geez RD y'all are always the first to jus' jump right in."

"EEEYUP!" I said doing my best Big Mac impression earning several giggles from my friends.

"So when we go back I suppose that the entire city will know about us." Said Twi after the giggles had subsided.

"And I'm probably going to have to get Spit to bail me out of hospital. I bet you there are going to be a-LOT of bronys outside the front door."

"Well, good luck with that RD!" AJ said with obvious sarcasm.

"Ya! Well!...You...agh, I got nothin'." I said earning more giggles from my friends. "I'm gonna go see Vinyl now. See ya!" I finished as I flapped my wings and flew up and out one of the windows.

Vinyl would probably be asleep still but I didn't care as I set course for her house. When I knocked a grey earth pony answered the door.

"Oh, hello, my name is Octavia, Rainbow Dash is it?" she said in a posh sounding Canterlot/British accent (I'm still not sure which to call it).

"Yup! Thats me! Is Vinyl here?"

"Yes, she was just down in the recording studio in the basement."

"Thanks Octavia!" I said as I began to hover down the stairs to the basement.

I got to the bottom of the stairs and saw Vinyl on the other side at a record engraving machine engraving a vinyl record.

"Hey Vinyl! What ya doing?" I asked causing her to flip the switch on the machine turning it off before looking at me.

"Oh, hey Dash! Just making a record for my latest work."

"Cool! Umm, Vinyl I need to ask you something."

"Shoot."

"You know we're all humans right?"

"What?!"

"Twilight just told me, she surveyed almost everyone in Ponyville, and everyone under sixty has gone through the same thing as you, including me."

"Wait...you mean that everyone has turned into a pony on earth too?"

"Yup."

"Oh, Thank Celestia! That takes a huge weight off my shoulders to know I not alone!" she said with a huge sigh of relief but here ears stayed flat on her head.

"Ummm, Vinyl? I known you long enough to know when somethings bothering you, now what is it."

"I-I don't-I don't wanna talk about it!" she stuttered.

"Is it because you ended up a different sex?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

"No, I mean, yes but thats not what's getting to me the most its that. . .Rainbow! I saw it! I saw it happen!" She managed before she started to cry. "I-I-I...I watched as m--m-my body slowly ch-changed right before my eyes! A-and when I looked down m-m-my-my thing! I-it vanished right b-be-before my own eyes!" She managed between sobs as me and the recently arrived Octavia comforted her.

Oh Celestia! Poor Vinyl, I would probably be like this too if I had seen it happen.

1:34 PM

"Okay then," Said the cheery doctor as he stepped into the room, "your X-ray checks out and we have completed our paperwork so you are free to go Ms. Dash."

"Really?"

"Yes, really, although there is quite a crowd outside waiting for you, after the article in the news about you." He said gesturing to the window.

I stood up, making sure to avoid bumping my wing as it was still sore, and cantered over to the window. Pushing up and placing my forelegs on the windowsill I looked out to see a large group, of what I assumed were bronys from the T-shirts some were wearing, standing outside the front door.

"Oh. Great! Hmmm. Oh I got it!" I exclaimed before asking if the Doctor had a phone I could borrow.

"Yes. What for?"

"I'm gonna call Spitfire. She can bring a cloud for me to jump on and then she can fly me outta here!"

"Interesting, here you go." he said handing over the phone.

Good thing I memorized Spits phone number. I thought as I dialled her cell.

"Hello."

"Hey Spit. Ya mind bringing a cloud to my window at the hospital so I can hop on and avoid all the Bronys waiting for be at the front entrance?"

"Uhh, Ok I don't see why I should say no. Which window's yours?"

Umm, well I guess I'll find out. I thought quickly poking my head out the window to see where on the building I was before leaning in and telling Spit.

"Second floor, two windows to your right of the entrance when you're facing the building."

"K. Be there in five mikes."

Five minutes later on the dot Spitfire came hurtling in over the crowd's heads pushing a cloud before pulling to a stop in front of the window.

"Thanks Doc!" I said hopping out the window and onto the cloud.

Spitfire pushed off before asking in a posh sounding voice, "Where to Ma'am?"

"Ha ha Spit vary funny. White Rock...Thanks, I would hated to have to wade through that crowd."

"I thought you loved attention?"

"When I can easily fly away if I want to, and where everyone doesn't want to pet me."

"Nice!"

ABOVE SEMIAHMOO SECONDARY
GREATER VANCOUVER, B.C. CANADA
TUESDAY, MAY 17, 2011
10:26 AM

This is gonna be hilarious! I thought as I dove towards the second floor window of my former Intergraded studies class.

I had been half a week since the newspaper article appeared about us ponies and the plane crash, but when I had told my story I left out any clues as to my human identity as I was not ready to stick that out there for all to see. In the meantime my wing and burns had healed nicely.

It was a fairly warm day so the classroom windows were open. I flew straight in the middle one before instantly coming to a halt and folding my wings causing me flop onto the couch underneath me on my back. Then put my hooves behind my head which was propped up on the arm rest and put a bored look on my face.

It only took a few seconds for the entire class to gawk at the cyan pegasus who was lying on the couch.

It only took a few seconds for Dale, who was sitting closest to me to sum up everyones thoughts: "What the fuck? What is that!?"

Thats my cue.

"I'm a pegasus, Duh!" I said extending my right wing out for them to see.

Right about then, Catherine, an avid pegasister and Rainbow Dash fan, recovered from her shock and began fangirling.

"Oh my gosh! It's Rainbow Dash! How do you become a pony? Does it just happen? Do you-" She started before Mr. Elliot, the teacher, shushed her and looked at me before asking some questions.

"So first of all what is your human name?"

"Rainbow Da-, Agh stupid brain, Cooper, my human name is Cooper."

"Cooper? Cooper Bogart?"

"Thats me! Although I prefer to go by Rainbow Dash now."

That answer caused a murmur of surprise to go through my 24 class mates. Mr. Elliot managed to shake it off surprisingly quickly.

"So are you here to resume classes?"

"Nah, right now I'm actually nineteen and I've already completed school in Equestria. I just wanted to see the looks on your faces! Bucking priceless! Anyway, Gotta go! See ya!" I said before jumping out of the window and taking flight.

Well that was fun! You know...I think I'll do a vlog on Youtube! I'll probably get lots of views! But first I'll do a little flying!

With those thoughts I Flapped harder and launched into a loop followed by a spin. I tore up the sky for a good thirty minutes before heading back to my house.

I should really get started on a cloud house soon. I thought as I entered the house.

I headed up-stairs to the computer and put on a pair of bracelets that had a pencil each pointing eraser down allowing me to use the keyboard of the computer.

I quickly got on Youtube and clicked to make a new account.

After fifteen minutes I had everything but a username.

Well, Duh! I thought quickly typing my name: Rainbow Dash.

I really couldn't have asked for a more fitting pony name.

As I returned to the home page I saw 'recommended for you 'Meet the ponies''

Author's Note

Ohhhhhh, Yay vary crappy cliffhanger...

Anyway, I would of posted this on the weekend but I got a bad case of procrastination/writers block, so sorry bout that.

Also, I depressed. Why? Because the logical part of my brain decided to be a total buzzkill and remind me that this is not possible and therefore will never happen. ;( [Thats how much I want this to happen, stupid me]

Anyway I'm gonna be doing some more chapters soon, I'm just not in a writing mood at the moment. I'll also probably end up making them longer as well as I am just getting back into my school routines.

Todays question: How did you become a brony\pegasister?

What the buck?

I clicked and a video came up of Cheerilee and and Blossomforth.

"Hello everypony. My name is Cheerilee and this is Blossomforth," she said indicating Blossom who waved a hoof at the camera, "And we wanted to try to help explain why ponies are popping up all over the world."

Then I knocked down the video. (What? I knew what they were going to say!)

I zipped into my room and grabbed my webcam before plugging it into the computer. I clicked the 'upload' button and picked the 'webcam capture' choice. Then I connected my mike before clicking record.

"Umm...hey guys! It's me, Rainbow Dash and I guess I'm gonna be doing a vlog on here now. Now I know what three quarters of you are thinking: You're thinking that 'somepo-someone is good with voice impressions and animation'. Wrong! I'm real and if you like I can come to your house and prove it!...On second thought, maybe not, but I'm right here and I'm as amazed as you guys probably are about me being here in my pony form."

After that, I explained my entire story up to that part. I ended up with a twenty-minute video and posted. The reaction? It exploded and I found myself with 500,000 views after three hours. Like I said, I'm a freaken' celebrity with bronys!

ABOVE MEADOWLANDS EXPO CENTER
SECAUCUS, NEW JERSEY, U.S.A
SATURDAY, JUNE 30, 2012
9:13 AM

I was flying around waiting for my friends to show up when I heard a huge cheer. I looked over in the direction my ears told me it was coming from and spotted a large crowd outside the front door.

In two years the Brony community had grown to be big, so big that they were holding conventions now, and my friends and I had been invited to one in New Jersey. I had flown ahead because I hate being cooped up in a limo, (stupid pegasus instincts) so now I was flying above our destination and it happened that the bronys had spotted me.

Air show time! I thought before folding in my wings and plummeting towards the crowd.

Just before I could hit them though, I flared my wings and did a loop and launched into my routine.

After five minutes or so the limo pulled up and I flew over to join my friends as they got out. Together we trotted up into the building, past the Bronys, and were ushered back behind a stage. Also there were all of the voice actors who did us in the show, (We still have no idea how or why the show exactly mirrors our adventures, it's just what ever they write for it we end-up doing and what we do they end-up writing, every adventure is seemingly randomly spaced but they always occur before the episode about it airs) as well as several other actors and producers. To finally meet them was interesting to say the least.

AJ and I cantered over to Ashleigh Ball, who, to my surprise, does both my voice and AJ's.

"Hey Ash. It's OK if I call you that right?" I quickly added.

"Oh thats fine. May I call you RD and AJ?"

"Sure!" We both replied at the same time causing her to giggle.

"Hey! Ah jus' realized somethin'! If she does our voices that means we all have the same voice, jus' set to a different main voice!"

"...Which means?" I enquired.

"That me and you and Ashleigh should be able ta do perfect impressions of each-other."

"So ya mean Ah should be able to do this?" I said sounding exactly like AJ. Reverting to my normal voice I exclaimed. "Oh. My. Celestia! I sounded just like you!"

"And I can sound just like you! Isn't that great!" Said AJ perfectly parroting me before we both broke out into giggles.

"Well that'll come in mighty handy occasionally, eh RD?"

"Yeah! Hey Ash! We should also tell you, Twi got a cool spell she worked out. She says it can turn you into a perfect copy of somepony else, in body at least. And it'll ware off as soon as you think about tuning into yourself. She offered to cast it on you so you could see what its like to be the ponies you voice. Oh and it comes with the knowledge of how to use these babies!" I said flaring my wings before jumping into a hover.

"Wow! Really? I've always wanted to find out what it felt like to fly like you!"

"An' what about me?" Asked AJ.

"Oh sorry AJ, we have two days don't we? I can see what its like to be you tomorrow."

"Alright." grumbled AJ.

**************************************************

Later after a couple of hours of signing tee-shirts and stuff at the con, it came time for Twi to do the spell. She gathered all of us and the voice actresses and had us in a back-room.

"Okay, a few things before I do this. Your clothes will go with your human bodies, which means when you return you will be wearing the cloths you are wearing now. To change back just think about your human body. Ready?" She lectured.

Getting a bunch of nods she walked over to Ash and I before lowering her head and preforming the spell. There was a bright flash and then there was another Rainbow Dash sitting right beside me where Ash had been.

Ash, now in an exact copy of my body, looked down at her body before looking back at me before letting a huge smile appear on her face.

"Alright Rainbow! Lead the way!" She said, in my voice of course.

"See if you can keep up!" I challenged before flapping my wings and zooming out the door into the bright blue sky.

I made a beeline for the nearest cloud I could find before landing and looking back to spot Ash right behind me.

Looks like Twi wasn't kidding when she said that anypony would have my flying skills if you gave them my body and flight knowledge.

"Wow! This is comfy!" She said as she landed before flopping over.

"I know right!"

"So what you wanna do?"

"I was thinking a little race." I replied.

Wow! This is soooo trippy! It's like I'm talking to my self. Wait, I am! I thought glancing at Ash and seeing me.

"Ok. how bout' that cloud over there?" She suggested, pointing to a far off cloud.

"You're on!" I said before she shot off without warning, "Hey! No fair!" I yelled giving chase.

Damn! She's as fast as me! Then again, she is 'me' at the moment. I thought as I slowly caught up.

She got to the cloud just ahead of me before using my catch phrase:

"This day just got about twenty percent cooler!"

EPILOGUE

5:40 PM (WHEN I AM WRITING THIS)

That was the most fun I had in long time when I think about it. Ash in my body was as fast as I was, and no one has come even close most of my life.

Either way over these three years that ponies have been on earth they have assimilated rather well. Most governments reactions was to just let them be after they realized we weren't trying to take over the world and that it wasn't some sorta disease that was causing us to transform. And when I say most, there were a few countries that either rounded up all the ponies and kicked them out or...The other thing. When Iran murdered many of the ponies unfortunate to get caught there, I am not sad to say NATO kicked their flanks good.

When that fateful day came and we popped up everywhere it seemed that every town and city in Equestria had a counterpart on Earth. for example, all of the ponies that lived in Ponyville appeared in the southern Greater Vancouver area, while 'Canterlot' was Downtown (I still find it funny that 'Manehattan' was Manhattan!).

The first couple of years there was quite a bit of racism (spicism?) and discrimination, but courts all over the world quickly ruled that we were sentient and former humans, so therefore we had all the same rights as a regular person. After that, it cleared up pretty quick. I myself beat up a couple of rednecks once while flying to Florida for...something, can't remember.

And then there's little old me. I ended up becoming a pilot despite my transformation, sorta. I'm going to a college aviation course now. They somehow got my graduation papers over from Equestria, so I didn't have to redo a few years of school.

All-in-all, I'm happy this happened. I mean sure, I had to have my sex changed in the process, but it isn't so bad if you get a mares brain in the process, because then only your conscience thoughts are screaming at you. I am a celebrity, get to go to the magical land of Equestria every night, and can fly at mach F***ing ten! So here I am, three years later.

I have one thing to say:

My life got about...Oh lets say...Twenty percent cooler!

Author's Note

Damn I suck a last lines.

Ya know not to bad for my first fic. I wasn't expecting this to be so popular. This was more of a trial run any way.

I'm Sooooooooooooooooooo so so sorry for ending this guys, I'd just rather finish it like that than abandon it.

I am having a super hard time motivating myself to write this, but not other stories, so I had to go and finish it before I couldn't even force myself finish it.

If a more able writer (theres a lot of you out there) wants to take up this story/idea go ahead, just PM me and link to this story, OK?

BTW, the voting-for-next-story-I-do thingys are still there, just scroll down a bit, I reposted them so that their at the top(I expected more than four votes!). Don't worry I will take both sets into account. Go ahead and like these too if you liked one of the first set.

See you for my next story.
