The fatal error

Hey guys I am still looking for pre readers. Shoot me a pm for if you are interested.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It has been two weeks since Rainbow and Twilight started dating. Both of them are happy as can be. Rainbow was planning a surprise for Twilight, however this involves the cursed preparation... Math.

The only bad thing is that rainbow is not always the most focused pony when it comes to these sort of things. She was halfway done when she got bored.

"Stupid math. I should just wing it. That always worked before" Rainbow thought aloud.

Rainbow was preparing for a trick to surprise Twilight. She was going to try and complete a third sonic rainboom. She had all the information she needed at the time. She didn't know what she was getting herself into. She was planning. She had to make sure there were no flaws. There could be no mistakes. She couldn't afford to make a mistake. She needed it all to be perfect. And it was. The plan was perfect, fool proof. She thought of almost all possibilities and made sure that the would only happen if she wanted them to happen.

Rainbow finished up her plan around 2:30 in the afternoon. Twilight had told her that she would be going to help Applejack later in the evening, around 5:30 or 6:00. She decided she was going to go for a fly and warm herself up. She stretched and walked out of her door. She thought that it would end perfect. She didn't know that what she was going to do in about three hours could kill her.

~~~~~~~~~~~2 hours later 4:30 P.M.

Rainbow was so nervous. She really did not want to screw this up. She had never spent so much time in her life planning like she did a couple hours ago.

She still had an hour before she was supposed to perform. But she decided she needed to get to her jumping position half an hour before then. She decided she would need somepony around just in case things went horribly wrong. She knew that Twilight would probably be able to help her better than anypony else, but she must be sure she has a backup plan if needed.

She flew over to Sugar cube corner. Rainbow landed on the welcome mat softly. She dusted herself off and walked into the bakery.

"Oh hello rainbow what brings you here?" Mrs. Cake said with a smile on her face.

"I'm looking for Pinkie. I need to talk to her. Do you know where she is?"

"Oh she just left, didn't say where she was going, Sorry. What did you need her for?"

"Oh, ok thanks for the help. And it's personal, kinda. You'll probably know when it happens" Rainbow said and walked out the door.

'Where could she have gone?.. If I were Pinkie where would I go..' Dash didn't know why she asked herself this question. If she had remembered correctly, nobody had ever correctly predicted what Pinkie Pie would do next. Pinkie Pie had no emotions, really, she was just one big emotion that nopony else could feel.

Dash took off and soared through the air scouting ponyville. She searched every corner until she found Pinkie happily bouncing along the streets heading in no particular direction.

"Hey Pinkie! wait up I need to talk to you!" Dash shouted as she rushed towards pinkie.

Pinkie came to a halt "Sure Dashie whats up?" She asked cheerfully

"Well I'm trying to do a trick to impress Twilight and I wanted you to be there just in case something bad happens."

"OoooOOoooOo sounds really cool! Unless you get hurt then it wouldn't be very cool, but i guess it would still be cool because your the one doing it! But nopony likes to get hurt, and i don't like seeing my friends get hurt at all!"

"That is why I need you there. If something does go wrong I will most likely get hurt, However if you are there then it will probably be a lot less worse than it could be without you there."

"Sure I'll be there! When is it? Where is it? Did you say cupcakes? Oh no I'm just hearing things again!" Pinkie said giggling.

"It should happen in about 30 minutes if all goes well, it could be an hour but an hour at most, just hide in the bushes somewhere on the way to sweet apple acres. Please it would really mean a lot to me."

"I already said I would you silly filly! You can count on me! Well not literally you cant count on any pony! Well I guess you could but-" She was stopped by Rainbow

"Okay thanks a lot pinkie!" Dash said as she flew away. Why did she go to pinkie? Because pinkie was the only pony that knew Twi and Dash where seeing each other. Why was she the only pony that knew? Because she was the only one she told about her crush on Twi. Why was she the only one that she told? Because pinkie is the best at keeping secrets. Why was pinkie the best at keeping secrets? Nobody really knows.

Dash, with a new confidence burning inside of her, flew up to the cloud she planned to start her decent off of to her starting point.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pinkie was hiding behind in a bush after she saw where dash landed. She waited. She couldn't stay still so she played with her hoofs to pass the time. She was anxious to see what dashie was going to do. She was excited, So excited that she wanted to throw a party!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Spike, I'm going to help AppleJack out on her farm, I'll be back in a couple of hours!" Twilight called to her number one assistant.

"Okay twilight! I'll see you soon." Spike replied and decided he was going to take a nap.

Twilight wondered what the dragon would do, She had a good guess, well two good guesses, but who knows.
Twilight also wondered why applejack wanted her to help on the farm. Applejack knows as well as anypony that twilight isnt the best pony for farm work. She was clueless but she just kept walking, What are friends for anyway? Twilight hadn't seen rainbow dash since she came by to ask what she was doing. That seemed strange to her, rainbow was always outside flying around or trying to spend time with her.

Twilight was wondering when she and rainbow were going to break it to their friends that they were dating. She at first agreed with rainbow that they should keep it a secret. But she had second thoughts now. They had been dating for a couple of weeks, they couldn't hide it forever, their friends would eventually find out one way or another. Rarity had noticed that Twilight and rainbow were together much more often than they were before, so she is obviously curious. She pushed the thoughts out of her head and kept walking on the road to sweet apple acres.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pinkie Pie felt something. It wasn't good. Her pinkie sense had gone into action. She knew the message: Some really bad was about to happen. Pinkie wondered what. Then she remembered that dash had said something like "If something does go wrong I will get injured. But with you here it will be much better than if you weren't here." Pinkies eyes widened and she was filled with fear. she jumped out of the bush she was hiding in to go and try to warn Rainbow Dash.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Twilight was halfway to sweet apple acres at 5:48 P.M. She realized she needed to pick up the pace or it would get dark while she was walking. She saw pinkie jump out of the push eyes wide with fear and then she saw a pink glob moving faster than the eye can see. Just pinkie being pinkie she thought. Then pinkie started to come towards Twilight. It took pinkie 7 seconds to run a hundred feet to end up right next to pinkie.

"TWILIGHT YOU HAVE TO HELP ME QUICK SOMETHING REALLY REALLY BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN!!!" The pink pony shouted with a worried look on her face.

"Slow down Pinkie, whats going to happen?" Twilight replied confused.

"I don't know! My Pinkie sense went off and it told me that something really really really bad was about to happen! And rainbow said she was going to do a really really really dangerous trick! you have to help me stop her before she ends up hurting herself!" Pinkie replied quickly and ran closer to where Rainbow's cloud was above her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Twilight was galloping frantically after Pinkie. Now Twilight was worried. As soon as pinkie said it had something to do with rainbow getting hurt she started to freak out. Her mind was racing with questions. Why is rainbow doing something that could injure her? Scratch that. What is rainbow doing that could hurt her? How badly would she get hurt? Will she be okay? Will I ever get to see her again? As that last question entered her head tears started to form in her eyes. She didn't know what she would do if she could never see dash again. She would be heart broken. She would probably be locked into her library for weeks crying. She would blame it on herself if Rainbow got hurt.

She forced the bad thoughts out her mind and started telling herself that rainbow was going to be fine. At the worst it would be a few cuts and bruises. Then another thought entered her head. What about Applejack? She lost granny Smith a month ago? What if she lost Dash too? How could she handle that? Applejack would be morally injured. She couldn't possibly deal with losing one of her best friends along with her beloved granny!

Twilight forced those thoughts out of her head too and made a promise to herself that she would not let anything happen to Rainbow Dash. For Her sake. For Their relationship. For her friends. And for all of Equestria. That thought popped into her head that Rainbow was one of the six elements of harmony. If something happened and she wasnt able to be there.. the elements would be useless. Rainbow was important. Important to Twilight and equestria. Nothing would stop twilight from protecting dash from death. She would stop at nothing to keep dash alive. Twilight would never forgive herself if the love of her life got away from her so soon after meeting her. She will not let their friendship die now. Rainbow was too young to die. She had so much life left in her. She was going to become a wonderbolt. She was going to be famous. She was going to have a happy life. Twilight let tears freely roll down her cheeks and she sped faster catching up to the incredibly fast and physic-defying Pinkie Pie.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rainbow saw Twilight finally. She prepared herself. She spread her wings and got into a jumping position. Then she jumped.
