A Rainbow of Personality

Chapter 2

“SHUT UP MES!” Rainbow Dash yelled, causing the library to become silent. “So, explain what happened, and how we can fix it.”

“Thank you Rainbow Dash,” Twilight said. “Now, it seems that I accidentally cast the spell a little too powerful, causing an amplified effect, therefore splitting your personalities into sentient beings. In short, the spell was so powerful it turned you personalities into ponies.”

“So how do we reverse it?” Dash asked.

“Well, I could attempt a counter-spell,” Twilight replied. “But there is a chance it could kill you in the process.”

“Well then...” Dash said. “Let’s leave that as a last resort.”

“I agree,” Twilight said, “The only option I currently have, as these books do not contain any reversal spells, is to write to Princess Celestia and ask if she knows of any solutions. It may be a bit before we get a response, though. Possibly a few days since she is in the Crystal Empire checking up on everything.”

“Okay,” Rainbow Dash said, “I guess we can find a way to control these other mes until we get a response. It won’t be too hard, we just keep them in here.”

“Oh yeah,” Twilight said sarcastically, “Nobody will find them hiding in the PUBLIC LIBRARY!”

“Good point,” Rainbow Dash said. “Where can we hide them then?”

“Well, there is your house,” Twilight suggested. “They technically are you, anyway.”

“Okay,” Dash said, “But how are we going to get them up there without anybody seeing them?”

“Well I do know a temporary invisibility spell,” Twilight said. “It should keep them invisible for about half an hour. That should be more than enough time.”

“Yeah, that’ll be fine,” Dash agreed, “Lets cast it and then we can get them over there.”

“Okay,” Twilight said, “Stand back, we wouldn’t want you to turn invisible too.”

“Hold on a second!” Red Dash exclaimed. “What gives you permission to turn us invisible and keep us in a contained area until you can, practically, kill us?”

“Yeah!” Orange Dash yelled in support.

“Guys, you should probably think this through,” Blue Dash said worriedly. “We don’t want to get anyone mad...”

“Well we created you guys!” Dash responded to Red Dash. “So you better listen to us!”

“You know what?” Red Dash yelled, “SCREW THIS! I don’t need to listen to you guys!”

Red Dash flew out of the library and into a cluster of dark clouds before Rainbow Dash could stop her.

“Wait! Don’t leave me here! They’re going to be mad!” Blue Dash called flying after Red Dash.

“Crap!” Dash cursed. “We’ll never find ‘em in those clouds. We can’t let any other Dashes escape.”

“I’m going out to practice some tricks, if anypony wants to join me,” Orange Dash said, flying out a window at a high speed.

“Ooh, some of those clouds look comfortable, wait up!” Green Dash called, flying after her.

“You were saying?” Twilight said, an annoyed look on her face.

“Well we still have the yellow one and the purple one here at least,” Rainbow Dash said.

“Ooh, is that the Complete Illustrated History of Equestria?” The Yellow Dash said excitedly as she pointed to the book with a hoof, “I’ve always wanted to read that book!”

“It’s one of my favorites,” Twilight Said, blushing. “I’ve read it five times.”

“Oh my gosh!” Purple Dash exclaimed, rushing over to Twilight. “You’re so cute when you blush!”

“Oh Celestia, she’s awake again,” Rainbow Dash sighed.

“You’re so adorable and smart!” Purple Dash said, hugging Twilight.

“Gah! What are you doing?” Twilight exclaimed. “Get off!”

Twilight teleported away from the Dash, causing it to fall.

“But-but I love you!” Purple Dash yelled, “Come back!”

The Purple Dash began to run toward Twilight, surprising Twilight again.

“I’m sorry to do this to you!” Twilight said as she froze the Dash with a blast of ice magic. “Well that’s one problem taken care of. Now the problem of the other four Dashes. I’m assuming the yellow Dash will stay here, as she is the smart one, correct?”

“Yes, I’ll be fine here with so many books,” Yellow Dash responded.

“So,” Twilight said, “What we need to do is-”

Twilight was cut off by a knock at the door, followed by it bursting open with an explosion of confetti.

“Hi Twilight!” Pinkie Pie said with her usual air of almost insane cheerfulness. “Oooh, who’s this frozen pony here, and why is there a yellow Rainbow Dash, and why is Dashie white, and, and, and-”
