Rainbow's tale

It was the day of the Flying test, Fluttershy looked around. There was a Gray Pegasus, With a yellow mane, Named Ditzy doo.

Fluttershy was scared, She didn't know how too fly.  Even though she was  a full grown mare, She did still had the flight ability of a Filly.   The judges, Shouted out "Ditzy doo, You're up!". Ditzy took off, Her flying was just as bad as Fluttershy's flying.

She fell, And hit the ground.. Yes, All the years of flying camp and practice. All wasted from one little mistake.

"Fluttershy!" Called out the Judges. It was Fluttershy's last few moment's before complete failure.

She took off, She flew good Up until the last hoop.  As she fell down, Tears where streaming from her eyes. But too herself, It was no suprize. Everypony knew Fluttershy would fail. Her and Ditzy where inches away from eachother. They where waiting for someone too come and yell at them for there Failure. There Parents, Friends, All of cloudsdale Where disappointed in them.

She closed her eyes. When she woke up, The whole rest of her life, Wouldn't be the same.  Most ponies who failed Never are heard from again. Probably from embarrassment- They probably moved too a far away place.

-------------- Chapter 2: The factory --------------------

She woke up, Her vision was faded.  After 5 minutes, she could finally see where she was.

She was in a Vehicle. Ditzy doo was in the corner of the car crying her eyes out. "Whats wrong Ditzy?"

"..I don't think that we are ever going back home! I Miss my Mommy.." Ditzy said, In a weak voice.

"What do you mean.. Never going back home?" Fluttershy was stunned.

"I heard them talking.. They said whenever a pony fails there flying test.....-" She was unable too speak from how much she was sobbing. "Spit it out Ditzy!" Fluttershy shouted, She forgot about her kind nature for that moment on. Her LIFE could be on the line.  "They take them someplace... and....They are never heard from......" Ditzy was barely able too speak.

"Is that All you know?" Fluttershy gulped.  "Yeah.. But what do they mean from "They take them someplace"? Do they mean.."

Ditzy sobbed.  Then they arrived too there destination- The weather factory? The driver was a Stallion in a black suit.

"Who are you?" Fluttershy asked the Stallion. "I'm Here too take you on a Tour!"

"Tour of what? What tour? What Tour? So you mean we drove all this way, Got all scared for a TOUR?" Ditzy spoke very fast that you could barely understand her.  "Not just any tour! A tour of the Rainbow Factory. And Sense you failed you're test ---- You get too help us with a very important task!" Said the Stallion.   "So thats IT?" Ditzy said, With relief.

"Follow me and i will take you on the Tour."

----------------- Chapter 3. Touring the factory ------------

"Here is where we make clouds." Said the Stallion. "Cool!" Fluttershy said in Awe.

.."Here is where we make the Rain."  "I'm getting bored. Can we wrap up this tour?" Ditzy asked

"But we have too see the best part of this factory! Where we make the Rainbows." Said the stallion, Grinning.

They took an elevator too the last floor of the Factory -

When they Arrived too the last floor, They walked into a room.

There where 4 Other fillies in the room, All crying. "Why are they-" Before she could finish, She was stunned from what she saw.

"Welcome too the Rainbow Factory".

------------------- Chapter 4.  Loyalty at its best ---------------

A Mare in a black full body black suit came into the room,

"Who are You?" Asked Ditzy. "Nice Question" The mare replied, With a evil grin.

For some reason Fluttershy Recognized the mare's voice.

The mare then pressed a lever, a rope came down and grabbed one of the 4 other fillies,

And behind her was a machine that the rope dropped the filly into, and Ripped her body apart. Her colors drained as the machine did so.

Fluttershy was stunned, What was happening?

The mare removed her mask, Fluttershy was so shocked. "Rainbow Dash...?"

Rainbow Dash looked over, "FLUTTERSHY". she was speechless.

"What are you doing here?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"I.. Really.. Don't know whats going on." Fluttershy said, Barely able too speak. A Stallion's voice shouted from behind Rainbow, "Press down the lever Rainbow Dash And Finish Her!". Rainbow Dash started too press down the lever. Fluttershy looked confused at her friend

"I.....I............Can't do this." Rainbow Dash started too cry.

Fluttershy stood there. She was speechless too what her eyes had just witnessed.

Police sirens went off outside, then a Stallions voice from a microphone Announced

"Rainbow Dash, You have 15 Minutes too Kill all of these fillies, Or you're Dead."

Rainbow Dash did not want too Kill her own Best Friend,

She had known Fluttershy sense Flight camp.

But at the same time she could not betray her Job at the Factory.

Ever sense she did the Sonic Rainboom, She has worked here.

She pulled down the leaver 4 times.

It picked up a Foal named Rumble, And drained his colors, And you know the rest.

Then another filly, Then another, Then another. Then Ditzy.

When the rope picked up Ditzy, Fluttershy couldn't handle but too cry.

Once all 4 fillies where "Done" with,

She put The Traumatized Fluttershy, And swept her up on her back.

She flew away fast as light.

-------------------- Chapter 5. The happiest days always end. -------------------

Rainbow Dash flew threw the air as fast as she could. She had too protect herself, And most importantly,

Fluttershy.    Pegasi where chasing after them.  Rainbow Dash looked back at Fluttershy, She was sobbing her eye's out.

Then a Brown Pegasus Caught up too Rainbow Dash, Rainbow flew faster.

Eventually the Brown Pegasus caught her and Handcuffed her and Rainbow Dash.

"What? Where are we Rainbow Dash?" Fluttershy asked, Looking around the Dark room

"I know exactly where we are." Rainbow Dash was manager of the Weather factory, She knew every room.

"Then where are we?" Fluttershy asked Rainbow Dash.

"...Right back where we started"

"What do you mean.." Fluttershy asked,

"We are back in that room, with the machine."

Fluttershy gasped.
