Finding the Courage

I flew harder than I ever have, zooming past the horizon. As soon as I hit the mark I did an immediate U-Turn, flying in a hurry back to Ponyville. I pushed harder and harder, seeing the town in the distance. I was almost there, I needed to be faster, If I didn't break the sound barrier soon it would never work! Then it happened. Everything went silent, I could barely keep my eyes open, I knew this was it! I pulled my goggles down and exploded past the edge of town. There's the fountain! I'm going to do It, It's going to work! BOOM!

Sonic Rainboom accomplished! The second I heard It I immediately shifted my weight and flew straight down towards the ground, spiraling down in a funnel of colors. Landing elegantly on top of the stone statue that rests on the fountain in town square. As soon as I landed I struck a pose, looking around at the cheering crowd. Panting hard, I tried to gain focus, then I heard his voice. I looked down to see him at the edge of the fountain clapping. I jumped off, landing next to him.

"Rainbow Dash! I'm so proud of you, My marefriend is the sexiest, fastest Pegasus in all of Equestria!" he said.

He put his hand on my cheek and I blushed. I closed my eyes as we leaned in for a kiss. This was the best moment of my life! I am the most popular Pegasus in Ponyville, Cloudsdale... Hell all of Equestria! Our lips touched and we were locked in a passionate kiss. Then after what seemed like an eternity, we unlocked from the connection and I heard him say,

"Wowie Zowie! You sure are a great kisser Rainbow Dash!".

I froze, then snapped my eyes open. I was in my bed, with my hands around Pinkie Pie's head, who was sitting next to my bed, only inches away from my face. I let go of her and yelled,

"PINKIE PIE?!".

I immediately tried to fly backwards, only getting my wings tangled in the covers and fell straight down onto the hard floor. It was then I realized that it was all a dream...
After a minute of struggling to untangle myself, I was finally free and jumped to my feet. Pinkie Pie was sitting on my now coverless bed, bouncing up and down on the mattress. In an irritated voice I asked,

"What the hell are you doing! How did you get inside my house the doors are locked!".

She responded with "You gave me and the others a key silly! Remember?".

"Oh... Yeah" I said. After hesitating I responded, "Well, that still doesn't answer what you are doing watching me sleep..".

"Sorry, I came to wake you up because it's morning and its a bright sunny day! It looked like you were having a really good dream and I didn't want to wake you up. So I let you sleep in. Did you know you talk in your sleep? Oh and who were you kissing in your dream? Was it romantic? Or exciting... Or both! Was it Exantic?".

I blushed, remembering my dream, I looked at Pinkie Pie and said "Did I... Did we uh..."

"Kiss? Yep! You reached out and pulled me In for one. You are a great kisser by the way!" she announced in a cheery voice.

I was so embarrassed. "Why were you sitting so close to my bed, Why didn't you wake me up? And wh- STOP BOUNCING!"

. She immediately stopped, sat down, and said "Sorry, I'm just so excited! Tell me about your dream, what were you doing? Who were you trying to impress? Was the kiss good? Am I a good kisser? No no this isn't about me It's about you, although I am always open to criticis-"

"PINKIE!" I yelled.

"Right sorry, very private I won't tell a soul!" She said in a quiet tone, making a zipping motion with her hand across her mouth. She then bolted for the door and before I could stop her, she opened the door, and slammed it. 10 seconds later the door opened slightly, enough for her to peak her head back in and said "Just don't forget to remember the fifth of November!". And slammed it again. Then opened it immediately after and said "Have a good day!" in a high pitched voice, then shut it again.

Both confused and tired, I groaned, climbing back into bed and falling head first into the pillow burying it into the soft feathers. With some peace an quiet after the most awkward and strange experience in my entire life, I could finally think straight. Oh yeah! The guy in my dream. Truthfully I have never even talked to him. I don't even know his name! I haven't had the courage to talk to him, but after what happened with Pinkie Pie, I don't think it could be any more embarrassing. I got up and flew out the door, I saw a lot of clouds, some looked dark and about to rain.

"How long was I asleep? Oh crap!". I thought out loud.

I looked at the time at the clocktower, it was 1:00 in the afternoon, I'm late! I zoomed up and started to clear the clouds. There were so many built up, more and more becoming black, I could hear the thunder starting. "Crap crap crap! I am in so much trouble!". Then I heard something, it wasn't thunder... It was a voice! I looked around for the source, then I peered down and saw him. The colt I had been dreaming about yelling up at me. I put my hand up to my ear and yelled

"What?".

The thunder was getting louder, drowning out what he was saying, all I heard was

"Out!".

Out? What does that mean? Out of what...? The thunder cleared just long enough for me to hear

"LOOK OUT!"

I looked up and saw a massive storm cloud above me. Then... Everything went black.

Author's Note

What happened to Rainbow Dash? Is she okay? Tune in next time!

Wake up call

YESTERDAY MORNING.

Red's POV.

"Just one more ingredient.." I muttered to myself, picking up a vial with my magic. All it needed was a drop of elephant sperm. I watched, sweating, as the white liquid edged its way towards the top of the vial. Then as a little drop of it spilled out, I tipped the container up quickly. Intently, I watched as the drop slowly fell, still attached to the vial by a thin strand of semen. My breath slowed, time slowed down, then finally it snapped. The drop landed in the potion. It began sizzling and popping immediately. I reached for a cork and quickly enclosed the reaction into the bottle. I set the potion down and observed as it changed colors. First red, then green, blue, and stopped with a sickly yellow color. I wiped the sweat off my forehead, giving a sigh of relief. With the formula complete, I get up and walk out to the living room.

I call out, "Violet? Violet are you here?".

With no response, I figured she had left for home.

"Damn", I said to myself. I she must have just left, no one to test the potion on... Well I suppose I could test it on myself. I let out a sigh and turned around. One of two things could happen, either
A. I turn myself into a sheep.
OR
B. I successfully enlarge my penis...

I like those odds! I uncorked the bottle and gulped the liquid down. After a belch, I sat and waited for something to happen.. Seconds turned to minutes, minutes turned to hours. I frowned and looked down at my small pecker with disappoint. Another failed attempt.

"Well... There's always next time."

I opened the door and took a walk, circling town, watching the busy guys and girls of Ponyville shop and mingle. I arrived at town square, sitting on the first bench closest to the statue. I watched people pass by, living their merry lives. The occasional group of children hopping by. Then I noticed someone staring at me. As soon as I looked her way, she vanished. Weird, I think I've seen her before. That colorful mane looks striking similar to the weather pony I have been hearing about. This is the fourth time I have seen her staring at me.

Either she really likes me, or pities me. I don't have the biggest package in town, especially when someone has seen it up close and personal. Word spread like wildfire. Then before you know it, all the girls around the neighborhood giggle and talk behind your back. But I suppose there's nothing that can be done about that. I just wonder why that potion hasn't worked. What was I doing wrong? I was following the recipe on the mark! Then... it happened. A very "Well Endowed" woman passes by me and drops her purse. Whether or not she saw me or not, she bent over to pick it up, giving me a full view of her sizable round ass. My eyes widened as I noticed she wasn't wearing any underwear, and her skirt was rather... Short.

My heart started pounding, I a pressure in my pants as I started getting hard. I quickly put my leg over my other leg in an attempt to cover up my crotch. She then picked up her purse and moved on. I thought to myself

"Well, I guess I'll just wait here and cool down. Don't need any embarrassment today."

That was the thing though... It wouldn't go down! I waited for ten minutes, but I was still hard as a rock. Then something strange happened. I felt a pressure in my groin, my heart started beating faster, I had no idea what was happening until I felt something poke my leg. I looked down and realized my cock had grown an inch or two, and now it was too big for me to cover anymore. I looked around quickly to see if anyone was looking. I saw a chance and bolted. I squeezed into an alley behind the cake shop, looking down at the bigger than normal bulge in my pants. It was then I realized the potion worked! As excited as I was I knew I shouldn't celebrate until I was home. Thankfully I could follow the alleys straight to my home. About 5 minutes later I arrived at my small cottage, going inside and locking the door. With a sigh of relief I fell back against the door and slid straight to the floor. Then my heart sank, as I heard movement in the next room over. The door across the hall opened and I saw my assistant Violet enter the room.

"Oh good you're here, I forgot something in the lab and came back to grab it." I heard her say as she left the basement.

"How are you feelin" She stopped dead in her tracks as she saw the hard-on I had been hiding for the past half hour.

"Oh goodness... I uh... I'm so sorry I didn't know you were... Wow! Did it..." I interrupted her,

"Grow? Yes, the potion was a success," I stated, face bright red with embarrassment. I got up and walked to my room. As I got to the door, I cocked my head at her and said,

"You can leave at any time. Make sure to lock the door after you leave, you have a key right?"

"O-of course..." She said with a stutter. "Did you um... N-need anything?".

"No." I said quickly, then slammed the door behind me.

I stripped off my clothes and went straight to my bed to sit down. I looked down and my new and improved genitals. It was huge! Maybe 10 inches long? Maybe 3 inches thick? I'd have to measure it later. Think of how much this would sell! I could make a fortune off it. As well as make a few colts.... AND mares...happy. I thought long and hard about the possibilities, but then it got a bit harder to think clearly. There was a... Lust, building up inside me. I looked down at my penis as It got much harder to breathe. I need.... Release! I grabbed it and started working the shaft up and down. Not only was it bigger, but it felt much better! It was more sensitive, each touch sent chills down my spine. I felt pleasure in ways I only felt during my first orgasm!

"Holy shit.." I proclaimed, as I started to speed up. The feelings only got more intense, as I felt another pressure in my nether region.. I looked down and noticed my balls were swelling up, growing not only to match, but outmatch my newly gained appendage. They were the size of soccer balls! I would have worried about it if I weren't in such a state of bliss. The more they grew, the better it felt. Then I heard something... A moan from outside my window. I turned my head and saw Violet, my assistant. She had witnessed the entire thing, and had been watching it occur. It seems I'm not the only one having a good time. She was masterbating to me, one hand on her slick muff, another under her shirt, fondling her breast. It was that sight that pushed me over the edge. My legs locked and my hips bucked as my back arched. And I cummed straight into the air like a fountain. I laid there in bliss as my own juices rained down on me. The geyser of semen kept coming as my balls started to shrink. They finally stopped at the size of golf balls as the rain subsided. Then my body went limp, as my orgasm finally stopped. Panting and sweating like I had just ran a marathon, I looked at the window and noticed Violet was gone.

Now with a clear head, I look around, noticing everything in my room is drenched in jizz. I sigh, thinking about how much of a mess this is going to be to clear up. Well... I suppose that can wait until morning. I dozed off, laying naked in my own filth and hormones.

I wake up 12 hours later. Still laying in what is now dried spunk. It's about 9:30 AM, And damn I'm thirsty. I get up, using my magic to pick up all the stained sheets and clothes that need cleaning and move them into washing bin, letting them soak. I head into the bathroom and begin taking a shower, cleaning myself off and washing my hair. I smile as the hot water washes over me, relaxing and thinking about yesterday. Man that potion worked... Maybe a little too well. I giggle to myself. Then it occurred to me, I had forgotten about Violet. She saw everything! And... err... Had a little fun too. We are definitely going to have a fun chat today. This is so strange... I feel so much more confident than I was yesterday. Maybe its a side effect of the potion? Not that It's a "Bad" effect. I feel alive! I want to get out and have some fun! Oh and theres that girl that was watching me the other day. I didn't get a good look at her, all I saw was her flowing rainbow hair. Maybe I'll bump into her again today.

I get out of the shower and dry myself off. After I get dressed I put on my clothes and head for the door. On my way out I begin to hear thunder. Strange, usually the skies are clear during the day. Maybe the weather ponies are slacking a bit. Oh well, I'm not going to let a little rain stop me. I open the door, forgetting to lock it behind me, and start jogging towards town square. I love the rain, the small pitter patter of droplets hitting the ground relax me a bit. As I jog I hear kids yelling and playing in the puddles, while their parents try to get them rounded up for school. It's then that I notice Violet, sitting on a bench with an umbrella propped up beside her, reading a book. It's then that I get a wicked idea. I begin to slowly creep up behind her, when I finally stop, I lean in close and whisper in her ear,

"Enjoy the show last night?".

She practically flew off the bench in surprise. Dropping her book on the ground.

"Oh! Red! you scared me.." She said

"How was it?" I retorted.

"How was what?" She said, with a nervous look on her face.

"I think you know. I saw you in the window last night."

She lowered her head in shame, looking red as a dragon's fire.

"Maybe you would like to continue this conversation later? In my room?" I whispered in her ear.

She quickly jumped up, grabbing her umbrella and book off the ground and said,

"Um! I uh... I have to go uh.... Do the dishes! Yeah thats it! Talk later okay?".

She then began running back to her house in a hurry. I laughed and leaned back on the bench, taking in the pouring rain. I looked around at the passerbys and noticed something odd... They were all standing still, looking up at the sky. I looked up and tried to find what was so interesting, then i saw her... The girl with the Rainbow hair. It looked like she was trying to clear the clouds away. But they were forming faster than she could fly. I ran over to one of the pedestrians and asked

"Who Is she? What is she doing up there?"

The girl answered, "That's Rainbow Dash. She's a weather pony, but the storm is too strong! The clouds are forming faster than she can clear them."

I looked back up at her, and what I saw made my heart drop. Above her, a large storm cloud was forming, black as night. I yelled up to her,

"LOOK OUT!".

She couldn't hear me over the thunder. So I ran until I was directly under her, and yelled again

"Rainbow Dash! LOOK OUT!"

She turned and looked down at me! Yes! She put her hand to her ear. I yelled one more time

"LOOK OUT!". Then there was a flash of light, followed by thunder. I covered my eyes, then looked back up. What I saw horrified me. She had been struck by lightning and was falling down to earth. Panicked, I watched her descend to earth, both limp and lifeless. She was 50 feet from the ground, that's when my horn started to glow, and with my magic, i slowed her fall, just enough to catch her. With her in my hands I rushed to the hospital. I cast a spell and the doors flew open. I blazed to the front desk, soaked in water, with Rainbow Dash in my arms. Scared and at the verge of tears i said,

"She just got struck by lightning! You need to help her."

The nurse yelled down the hall and a stretcher came flying through, I set her down on it as they rolled her into the back room. I tried to go in after her, but was held back by one of the doctors.

"Sir, you have to wait here. We will do everything we can for her."

Reluctantly I agreed and sat down at the waiting area. I waited there for what seemed like hours, then a doctor came out and looked at me. I jumped up and asked,

"Is she going to be okay?"

The doctor looked at me and said, "She was burned pretty bad, It's lucky you brought her in when you did, otherwise she might have died."

With hope in my eyes I blurted "So does that mean that she's...."

He gave me a stern look and replied, "She is recovering, but she is in a coma. I don't know when or if she is going to wake up."

My eyes filled with sadness, She's in a coma... At least she's alive. The only thing I can do now is wait... And hope she is still alive.

A new day

ONE WEEK LATER:

Rainbow Dash.

Everything is dark. I don't know where I am... I see a light In the distance. It feels so warm. I am limp, I can't move... The light draws me closer, closer... I close my eyes, waiting for the bright beams to consume me. Then I heard it. A voice, a very faint whispering. A whisper so quiet, I was forced to listen. It grew louder, until I was able to make out the words.

"Wake up..."

Wake up? Was I asleep? Was this all a dream? I had no idea. I heard another voice, this time... A sobbing. A painful, sorrowful sob. It was then, that I recognized the voice. There was not one, but five... I could make out one of them. Twilight Sparkle? Yeah that's it! Wait, It's my friends! I can hear them now. I suddenly gained the strength to move. I look around, seeing the light on one side, and my friends on the other. It was then that I realized... I was struck by lightning. I remember now! I began walking towards my friends. The closer I got, the clearer things became. I could hear things... The crying became louder, my memory returned. Then there was a flash of blinding light, I closed my eyes again. Everything got cold... I heard each voice indefinitely, it sounded as if they were right next to me. I opened my eyes. I was lying in a hospital bed, in a blue gown. I looked around, the room was empty. I was alone... I immediately began to sob. Am I dead? My head jerked up when I heard the door begin to open. My eyes lit up when I saw who it was.

"Pinkie Pie!" I said enthusiastically. When she heard my voice, she lit up like a Christmas tree. She ran over and hugged me like I was the last pony on earth!

"RAINBOW DASH!" She yelled with joy.

I could hear her crying. She was crying for me...

"I... Pinkie..." I barely managed to say before I burst into tears.

"I thought you were gone!" She said, still holding me as if I was about to slip away again.

I had no words... Nothing I could say would be enough for what I am feeling right now. Then Pinkie broke from the hug. She had a smile on her face. It was then that she rushed to the door and said

"I have a surprise for you!" She opened the door and yelled, "Hey girls! She's awake!".

I heard people sprinting to the door, then I saw... Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, even spike! They were all here. From first glance, I could notice the dried tears under their eyes. They were all a mess. But they looked excited and happy to know I was awake. That made me feel better, better then I have ever felt. To know I have friends that care about me this much... Before I knew It they were gathered around me, hugging, crying, and asking questions that varied from, "Are you hungry?", to, "How do you feel?". I was a bit flustered. After all the questions were asked and I had a moment to speak. I said,

"Um..."

"Yes??" They all said together.

"I kind of have to pee..." I proclaimed.

There was a short pause, then we all began to laugh. It was good to be alive! I sat up slowly, then cringed as I felt pain running down my right wing. Rarity grabbed hold of me, saying "Easy Rainbow Dash, you might have been asleep for a week, but you were after all struck by lightning my dear."

A week?! I've been out for a week! I... I... Don't know what to say... Have I been in a coma? Well obviously... Ugh.. I could care less. I am just happy my friends are here for me.

"A week? What have I missed??".

"Not much. That was a nasty storm you got caught in though. What were you doing?" I heard Fluttershy say, in her usual quiet voice.

"I slept in late, I was trying to clear it out before it got too bad. But I guess I was too late." I say, with my head down. "It was all my fault, If I was out there earlier..."

Applejack interrupted me with a hand and said, "Now you stop right there ya hear? You did everything you could. Nothing you could have done woulda stopped it. We're just glad you're okay."

I looked back up at everyone, who still looked happy and cheerful. I then stood up, feeling extremely weak, almost collapsing into Twilight.

"Easy! You should really rest darling." I heard Rarity say.

"Now now..." Applejack interjected. "If yall know Dash like I do, you know she's stubborn. And if she wants to walk around, she is going to walk around."

Everyone looked at me, then back at Applejack, giving her a nod. I started to walk, getting a little helping hand from Pinkie Pie and Rarity.

"Where's the bathroom in this joint?" I said with a chuckle.

They lead me out of the room into the hall. Then I almost stumbled by what I saw. It was the guy I saw before I blacked out. The one I had... A crush on.

"What's he doing here?" I asked.

"He is the one who brought you in. He has been practically living here since you got here." Twilight said.

I looked at him again, and noticed he was fast asleep, sitting with his head slanted, lying against the wall.

"He brought me in? But..."

"Yeah!" Pinkie Pie jumped with glee, "If it weren't for him, you might not be here right now!".

He saved me... But why? He doesn't even know me. I made my way to the bathroom. Once I got in, I locked the door, pulled down my pants and sat down. With a sigh, I began thinking about that guy. Why did he bring me in? Maybe he DOES like me! Oh my gosh... What should I do? Should I ask him out? Maybe he's just a nice guy... So many things running through my head. Then I heard someone knock at the door. I heard a voice I didn't recognize,

"You okay in there?" He said.

"Ya... Just a minute." I quickly retorted. I finished up, flushed and unlocked the door. I opened it to see the guy that had been asleep, standing right in front of the door. He rushed in for a hug, gripping me gently. I blushed, eyes wide open in disbelief. Maybe I'm still dreaming?

"I'm so glad you're okay! Does it hurt?" He said.

"Wh- What?" I said in a daze.

"Your wing, its pretty burned up. Does it hurt?"

I snapped back to reality and said "Oh! Yeah uh... Its not that bad. I mean I am the toughest weather pony in all of Equestria! A little lightning isn't going to get me down!" As I extended my wings in a proud manner, only to nearly pass out from the pain. He grabbed me and walked me back to the room. Where everyone was waiting. After I laid back down, I told everyone that I'm fine, and they can go home. Knowing I'm okay, they nodded. Leaving one at a time, after hugs and goodbyes. I asked the guy to stay. After everyone had left, it was just me and my crush. He closed the door, leaving us alone.

"So what can I call the hero who saved me? You obviously know my name already." I asked.

"Red. Just Red." He said, as he took a seat in the chair next to me.

I looked at him with a smirk and said, "Okay, Just Red, How are you feeling?"

He raised an eyebrow, "Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?"

I giggled, "Just curious".

"Well I'm doing just fine. My back is a bit stiff from sleeping in this hospital. Other than that, good!" he laughed.

Dumbfounded, remember the conversation with her friends earlier, I looked at him and asked "Why were you sleeping in the hospital?"

"I have been here every day since you blacked out, waiting for you to wake up. Your friends are very nice, they came to visit every day since." He replied.

"That still doesn't answer why?" I followed up.

"Well... I caught you following me the day before. I figured you liked me or something. That and I... Well.." He paused for a long moment, before saying, "There's just something about you. Something that I can't get away from. When I saw you get struck by lightning, my heart sank. I thought you had died!".

I blushed, tears starting to well up in my eyes. "You really care about me that much?".

"Hell yeah! You're the bravest damn weather pony I've ever seen. You were the only one up there, after the storm got so bad the rest of the ponies cleared out. But you stayed up there, fighting."

As soon as the tears rolled down my face, he got up and hugged me. I grabbed onto him tightly, holding him close while I sobbed on his shoulder. It was then, I pulled away. We stared into each others eyes. I stood there, lost in his lush blue eyes. That flowing red mane. Breath getting heavy, we leaned closer, lips nearly touching. Then... It happened. We were locked in a kiss. I closed my eyes, wrapping my arms around his head, holding him there. Never wanting this moment to end. Then my heart dropped as I heard Pinkie Pie's voice.

"Wowie Zowie!!".

Oh no... Please say this isn't another dream. I pulled away and opened my eyes. I was still in the hospital, Red was still in front of me. It wasn't a dream, but then how... I scanned the room, looking through the glass door to the hall and saw Pinkie watching this all unfold. Not ten seconds later, she burst into the room throwing streamers into the air.

"Dashy and Red are now boyfriend and girlfriend! LET'S PARTY!!!!"

Me and Red laughed, I looked at him and said, "Boyfriend eh?"

"Mmm... I suppose so!" He said, before moving in for another kiss.

We stayed there, tuning Pinkie Pie out, however impossible that sounds, staring into each others eyes as we locked into another embrace. As we moved apart, I said "Let's get out of here, I think I'm feeling good enough to move now."

"You sure?" He said with a worried look, "You are still pretty banged up."

"Of course I am!" I said with a newfound joy in my voice. I picked up my clothes and paused, staring at him.

"Well?" I said.

"What?" He responded, confused.

I socked him in the shoulder, "I'm not changing with you in here, now shoo." Me and Pinkie Pie giggled. Then Red and Pinkie left as I changed into some of my old clean clothes. As I headed for the door, I heard chatter outside, of not just Red and Pinkie Pie. But Twilight and the others too. I peaked out in time to see them all blushing as Pinkie told them about the kiss. I giggled to myself before walking out to greet them. I have friends, A new boyfriend, who I would never have had the courage to talk to before. With this experience, I think I've learned a lot. Nearly dying changes a person. And I think from here on out, I think everything is going to be just fine! Now what next... Dinner? Sex? Wait... Maybe sex can wait. I don't know. I need some pointers first.... Maybe I can ask Pinkie Pie?

Grounded

Rainbow Dash.

"This sucks.." I muttered to myself. Walking down the streets of Ponyville, on the way to Red's house. It's been two weeks since I got out of the hospital, and I still can't fly! At least I'm on leave from being weather pony... With pay too! I guess for all the times I saved their asses, heh... Pouting, I arrived at his house and knocked. No answer. I knocked again, and waited a few minutes. Still no answer.. He should be home, where the hell is he? He told me to meet him at his house at three o'clock. Well its 3:10. I am still waiting. I tried the door knob, and it was unlocked. Weird.... Usually he locks his door. I open the door and wander into the house. I heard noise down in his lab and figured he was working. Tipical egghead! Probably lost track of time. He doesn't even have a watch! Would it kill him to put a clock down there? I open the basement door and peer down it. The light was off, the room was dark, but I still heard the usual bubbling of chemistry pots and beeping and whirring of equipment.

"Hello?" I called down into the pitch black room. He never leaves his equipment on... Maybe he is hurt! I rushed down the stairs, attempting to find a light switch.

"Why is the damn light switch at the bottom.." I groaned as I finally reached the bottom, after inching my way down the stairs, and flipped the lights on. I didn't see him anywhere. Maybe he was just using the restroom? A bit odd why the lights were off though. Maybe I should check the rest of the house ou-- Wait... What was that smell? I turned around, heading toward the beakers, boiling with whatever potions he had been mixing and making in his "Lab", Which was really just a basement with a bunch of junk hooked up in it. I approached the desk and noticed a vial on the table. The vial was labeled, "Aphrodisiac #2". I suppose that explains why it smells so good... And makes me a bit horny. I giggle to myself, thinking of what he could possibly have made this for. Maybe this is a hint that he wants to finally have sex? I look around the room, making sure he isn't here, then take the vial and drink it. I lick my lips and mumble to myself,

"Mm... Tastes like chocolate.." I wait a minute for something to happen. Nothing... Hmph. Guess it didn't work. What a buzz kill. I head to the stairs and begin making my way to the bathroom. He's not there? The bedroom? Nope. Maybe he really isn't home? I sit on his bed and lie down, thinking about Red's line of work. He is a Chemist? At least that's what it looks like. He hasn't told me much about what he does, other than selling potions. He reminds me of Twilight... When he isn't making a new formula, he has his face stuffed in a book. As weird as it sounds, It's actually of hot... I love how "Into" his work he is in. I hear people talk about him and how his potions has helped people's relationships. I wonder how? Well I suppose whatever he does works. We have been getting a lot of money lately with this "New Product" he has been selling. Maybe I should check it out. I just wish he were home. As soon as he get's home I'm going to screw his brains out. I didn't go to Twilight for no reason.

EARLIER:

"Knock knock!" I proclaim, banging on Twilight Sparkle's door. Immediately I hear a loud BANG! Followed by loud footsteps. The door glows a dark purple, then swings open. I was greeted by an annoyed Twilight, hair in disarray, and twitchy as FUCK!

"What is it! Can't you see I am very bus-" She paused, "Oh! Rainbow Dash... I'm sorry.."

Holding my hands up defensively, taking a step back, as if i was about to be rushed by a bull.

"Whoa whoa! Does that rage come in blue?" I say with a half hearted smile.

"Come in. Again, really sorry!" She retorted, rushing off to what used to be a stack of books. And is now a cluster of books and papers scattered around the house.

"I've been trying to perfect a spell, I almost had it... Until my focus was interrupted." She said, with a long tired sigh. "Did you need something Rainbow Dash?"

"Actually yeah..." I said nervously, scratching the back of my neck. "I don't really know how to ask this but..."

"What is it?" She asked curiously. "You can talk to me Dash, anything you need."

"Well... Did you have a spell to uh... You know" I said, blushing.

"Yes?"

"To prevent..."

"Spit it out already!" She said with an impatient tone.

"To prevent pregnancy?"

Twilight blushed, not looking me in the eyes. There was a long pause before she said, "Oh..."

"Yeah..." I said shyly.

"I do uh... Let me get it." She said after clearing her throat. She turned around and levitated and opened book off the table near the window, already open to the spell. "Alright, I got it."

"Um... Twilight?" I said.

"Yes?"

"Why is the book with the spell in it on your table? And why was it already opened to the spell?" I asked with a raised eyebrow. Her face turned a shade of red I had never seen on her before, still refusing to make eye contact.

"Do you want the spell or not?" She said after a long pause.

"Yes!" I proclaimed, "Sorry.."

"Good! Let's get this over with shall we?" She said as her horn began to glow. Suddenly I started feeling warm... Not burning or anything just.... Warm.

"Alright, Is that all you needed?" She said, looking me in the eyes for the first time since I got here.

"Nope! Thanks Twilight! I mean it really, thanks a lot!" I said with glee.

"No problem.. Just close the door on the way out." She said as she turned around and headed back to her books. Stacking them neatly in alphabetical order. I made my way out the door, but paused, seeing Big Mac heading towards the house. I walked up to him and said,

"Hey Big Mac, Applejack isn't here, are you looking for her?"

"Nope." He said, continuing to walk toward the house.

"Twilight?" I said with a raised eyebrow.

"Eeyup..." He replied, before walking inside and closing the door behind him and locking it.

I blushed, giggling to myself. I turned around and started walking to Red's house, thinking about how much "Fun" we are going to have today.

PRESENT:

"I've been waiting here for an hour, where the hell is he?" I mumbled to myself, getting impatient. I was about to get up and leave, then something odd happened. I started to feel warm. The but not the usual warm. My heart began to beat faster, my breath quickened. I started feeling light headed, immediately falling back down onto the bed.

"Whoa..." I said to myself. "What's going on? I feel so... Good!" I smiled, getting a small high. Everything started to feel good. She needed to get out of these clothes. It was getting to hot, too constricting. After all my clothes were off, i laid myself out on the bed. The fabric of the sheets felt so good.. Each time it rubbed against my skin, waves of electricity flashed through my body. I started getting... Horny! I don't know why, maybe that stuff really worked? It was then that I realized the sheet was getting soaked. My muff had been leaking all the lust that had been building up inside of me. I couldn't help but start touching it. Each touch sent bolts of lightning through my body. Everything was a blur, the chills of pleasure rushing through my body. All I could do was lie there in bliss as I fingered my rippling snatch. I needed more... Something bigger. I got up and headed straight into the bathroom.

"There!" I grabbed his tooth brush and headed back to the bedroom. I'm sure he wont mind if I borrow this... It is for a good cause after all. I layed back and began rubbing my soaked pussy with the handle of the toothbrush, holding it by the brissles. As horny as i was, i was curious about why this toothbrush was thicker than normal? Not that I am complaining. An idea formed. I turned the tooth brush around, putting the brissle end in first. As it went in, i felt every single brissle individually rubbing my love canal, driving me insane with pleasure. It was then i noticed something strange about the toothbrush. There was a button on the center of it. Still deep inside me, i pushed the button. I gasped as it started vibrating. The sudden wave of pleasure I experienced made my entire body lock up. I let go of the brush and it sat there, vibrating, sending endless and blissful euphoria throughout my body. My back arched as I fondled my breasts, which seemed to be fuller than normal. My body locked up as a massive orgasm rocked throughout every inch of me. I sat there with my mouth wide open, tongue hanging out, blinking in and out of reality. After minutes of this powerful rush, it started all over again, I couldn't, no I didn't want to get up. I just sat there enjoying what seemed like an eternity of lust and pleasure.

30 MINUTES LATER.

Red's POV:

I walked through the door, setting my coat on the rack, and walked down to the lab. But something was wrong... The door was open and the light was on. I walked to the door and shouted down,

"Rainbow Dash? You down there?"

There was no reply. I walked down and looked around the lab, no sign of her. But there was one thing that made my heart drop. The experimental aphrosdesiac is empty! Oh no, did she...? It was then i was interrupted by a loud moan coming from my room. I bolted upstairs and hurried down the hall. I opened the door to see Rainbow Dash lying there playing with herself. And what looked to be.... My toothbrush?

"Dash?!" I said with both surprise and disbelief. She turned it off and pulled it out of her, looking at me with a fire in her eyes.

"Welcome home Red, want to join the party?" She said, standing up and walking toward me.

Eyes wide, I started to feel a lust building up inside me.

"Did you drink that vial in my lab?" I said in a worried tone.

"Yeah, and it works great!" She said, pushing me against the wall.

"It... hasn't even been tested. It's supposed to be used in a dark room, that's why the lights were off. The light makes its effects stronger than it's supposed to!" I said to her, while trying to keep calm. I began to breathe heavier, my heart was racing.

"Come on Red. Teach me about biology." She said sensually, leaning in closer to my face with each word.

"Well technically I'm not a biologist, I'm a chemi-" I was interrupted as her lips met mine. All my thoughts went out the door. Screw recording the side-effects. I want her now!

"Ohh... Looks like someone is happy to see me." She said, looking down at the bulge in my pants, poking her naked lips. She was rubbing against it, causing it to grow harder, as well as entice a small moan from her mouth. I was thrown to the bed by her, legs hanging off, arms propping me in at an acute angle. She began undressing me, finally seeing my towering mast for the first time.

"It's so big! You're so gifted..." She said, running her smooth hands across it, taking in the smell of my musk.

I knew for a fact that none of that was true. It was only because of that potion that I am this big. All I know is that she is in full control right now.

"Mind if I taste?" She said, licking it, as if I had any choice in the matter. The roughness of her tongue send waves of excitement through my body.

"Nhg..." I groaned, grabbing the covers, soaked in what I can only imagine is pure ecstasy from her fun earlier. She smiled, looking up at me as she took the tip into her mouth. Swirling her mouth around the tip, while encompassing more of my shaft down her throat. She only had five inches in, only half of what was actually there.

"R...Rainbow Dash! I can't..." I tried to say but was cut off by my balls being squeezed and massaged by her right hand. Her left hand rubbing the other five inches of my shaft that was left. I couldn't speak, only pant and watch as she worked my entire cock. My balls began to fill with the passion that had been building up. They were the size of apples.

"Going to...cu...cum!" I said as I bucked forward, shoving an extra 2 inches down her throat. She choked as a flood of passion sprayed out. Her eyes widened at the amount that had been released, blasting out her mouth and coming out her nose. She pulled off it, aiming it straight in the air. She embraced my dick in a hug as my liquid love rained down, bathing her in it. She sat licking at my shaft and kneading my balls, enticing more of my juices out.

"So much... You're like faucet!" She said with a surprised look on what little of her face I could see, coated with my semen. I was lost in pleasure as my orgasm ended. I laid back, feeling weak by the amount of spunk that I had just produced. I laid there panting.

"Maybe I should take a shower..." I heard her say. I looked down and saw her soaked in my baby-batter. We both started laughing, realizing the mess we had made. I started to clean up as she went to the bathroom. I heard the shower turn on and the door shut. Then... I had an idea. Why stop the fun now? I opened the door and approached the curtain. I heard her singing. Her voice was beautiful, all I wanted to do was be with her. I peaked inside, seeing her soaking wet, wiping the last of the sperm from our last battle off.

"Room for one more?" I asked.

"Of course." She giggled, taking a step forward.

I embraced her in a hug as the hot water washed down us. She rested her head and hands on my chest, closing her eyes, listening to my heart beat. We stood there, cuddling in the steamy shower for what seemed like hours. She looked down at my cock and started playing with it.

"Thinking what I'm thinking?" She gazed up at me, giving me a stare of hunger. I started getting hard again. A smile slid across my face as my penis started extending between her legs. She squeezed it in between her thighs, pushing a loud groan out of my throat.

"Twilight put a spell that stops you from knocking me up. So you know what that means?" She said, wrapping her hands around my head.

"I believe so." I said, kissing her, then slowly moving down to her neck. When I kissed her neck, she let out a small moan, wrapping her arms around my body, holding me as close as possible. I aligned my cock to her entrance, which was almost calling to me. The look in her eyes begging for it. I slowly began to press, and then finally it was in. The pinch of first penetration send a spark through both of us. I was a bit big for her, but she told me to kept going. I slowly inched myself into her. I felt her nails begin digging into my back as she came closer and closer to hilting me. Her face in a mix of pain and pleasure. I began massaging her breasts, and locked lips again. The tension slowly falling as she started to relax, letting my shaft explore her depths freely. All that was left was pleasure as I pulled all the way out, then slammed all the way in to the hilt. She let out a scream of pleasure, her tongue hanging out as she gripped me tighter. She wrapped her legs around my waste as I bounced her up and down on my manhood. We were both locked body and soul, as the hot water from the shower sprayed on us, only adding to the pleasure.

"Fu... fuck me!" She managed to say, barely able to speak coherently. I grabbed her tighter as her grip loosened, unable to stop as I thrust back and fourth. She started to get tighter around my cock, it was then I could tell she couldn't hold back any longer. I began to speed up, feeling my orgasm on the rise.

"I'm.. I ca... nt m,h...toes... Muffins!" I heard her spout. Muffins? I think I have literally fucked her silly. Suddenly I felt her clamp down on my cock, signaling her orgasm. The sudden tightness pushed me over the edge as well. I felt my balls start to expand, gurgling with a torrent just waiting to be released. I couldn't hold back anymore, and came hard. I pulled out, watching my now pulsating cock shoot its load all over her stomach and face, as well as leaking out of her twitching muff. When it finally died down, she was still holding on to me, only just being released from her own burst of pleasure. We both held each other close, panting and sweating, feeling our hearts racing simultaneously.

"I think... I overdid it." I said with exhaustion in my voice.

"That....was..... AWESOME!" She jumped with excitement, nearly slipping on the wet bathtub floor.

I laughed, pulling her in for one more kiss, as we dried off and headed for the bedroom. I was tired as hell, and I think the feeling was mutual. We both curled up in bed as I put on new sheets, scooting next to each other with blissful smiles, and fell asleep.

THREE HOURS LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

I woke up next to Red, feeling thirsty and maybe just a tad hungry. I got up, got myself a snack and a glass of water. I devoured the leftover muffins Pinkie Pie brought over the other day. Don't know why these taste so damn good. Feeling refreshed, like a new pegasus, I looked at the time, noticing it was only three in the morning. So I stretched and walked back to the bedroom to sleep for a few more hours. As soon as I entered the room, what i saw surprised me a bit. Red layed there on his back, asleep. But there was a little something poking into the sheets. His cock was fully erect, pushing the covers up like a tent pole. I licked my lips, giving myself a wicked smile. Twilight's spell lasts for 24 hours so... I'm sure he wouldn't mind if i had a little fun while he slept. I moved to the bed, pulling the covers up just over his dick. I could already see beads of pre leaking from the tip. Grabbing it and taking in the strong musk, i smeared his pre all over his mast, using it as lubricant. After all was said and done, I hovered over him, slowly lowering myself onto him. The tip penetrated my pussy with ease, whether from the semen being used as lube, or the fun we had earlier.

"Ohh!" I moan, feeling it push pass my lower lips. Slowly and slowly I hilted myself on his monster he called a cock, finally stopping, now that it is all resting inside me. I hear a small groan from his cute mouth. The fact that he is sleeping through this proves he could sleep through a hurricane. I begin moving up and down, riding his manhood as if it were my last. It was then that I felt it begin to pulse. Was he cumming already? Who cares, I'm going to have as much fun as I want here. The vibrations of his dick sending small ripples through my body, driving me insane. I twist myself around, riding him reverse cowgirl. Bouncing up and down, up and down. Even in his sleep he is amazing at this! It was then that i started hearing a loud gurgling sound. I looked down, seeing his balls expand. I had known about his predicament, but I didn't know it was this bad! They were bigger than i have ever seen them. They were actually lifting me up slightly, now reaching the size of basket balls. With a small twinge of worry, I start to lift myself off of him. But then something bad happened. His giant manhood grew larger, growing an extra three inches, and thicker than normal. The sudden growth send a spike of both pleasure and pain, stretching me wider than I have ever been. The freak growth made my lose my balance, falling back down on his cock, instantly impaling and hilting me. My body was rocked by a massive orgasm as I tightened around his cock, unable to get up. I heard his basketball sized gonads gurgle, still increasing in size. The tightness must have pushed him over the edge, as I heard a groan, as he bucked his hips upward. The mix of pain and pleasure was unbearable, tears streaming down my cheeks. Then I felt him dump his load inside me. The bad thing was, he was still cumming, and his balls weren't shrinking in the slightest.

"Sto...Stop.....Pleas..nhg" I managed to say, feeling a new rush of warmth invade my womb. The endless amount of spunk pouring into me slushed and gurgled as my abdomen began to swell. This new sensation was both amazing, and worrying. I was unable to turn myself around. I kept pleading,

"Please... wake up... I can't.. rrgngh"

No response, he was like a brick wall. Whenever I thought his torrent was over, a new one floods in. I am stuck on his cock, being pumped up like a balloon. Each pulsation was followed by a wave of jism, each wave sending crashes of pleasure throughout my body. I sat there, impaled on his member, unable to get up even if I wanted too, the weight of my new oversized belly keeping me down. Then finally it stopped. His orgasm dying down, his rigid member slowly softening. In a weak attempt to get up, I push myself up, only slipping back down his shaft. Oh no... He's getting hard again! I can't take another round, please....wake up.

NINE O'CLOCK: Six Hours Later. Red's POV:

I was dreaming of a beautiful meadow, me and Dash lying down. Talking, having sex, sharing memories. We were alive. Then I heard it. A small whimper,

"Wake up..."

My eyes immediately snapped open. I awake to see Rainbow Dash, facing away from me, sitting hilted on my pride and joy. I noticed the size of her belly. It looked as if she was nine months pregnant, carrying tripplets! I could hear her moaning, her face twisted in a state of absolute euphoria, her body giving an occasional twitch. Then i heard her say,

"Help...."

I tried to push her off me, only managing to slide her so far up before i lost my strength, causing her to slam back down. A wave of pleasure shot through me as I felt what I could only imagine as my fifteenth orgasm. I saw her stomach expand even further, causing her to twitch and moan more. It was then i saw my balls shrink to normal size. And my shaft beginning to soften. Eventually it slipped out of her, and i was free.

"Dash! You okay?" I said, jumping to my feet, nearly collapsing from the loss of fluids. She fell back, lying on her back. Still locked in pleasure. I expected the semen to start spilling out, but her lips were clamped so tight, it wasn't allowing any to spill out. I sat her up, putting an arm around my shoulder. Guiding her to the bathroom. She barely managed to fit through the door. I sat her down in the tub, then told her to relax. She started to slowly return to reality.

"Hold on, this will be over soon." I said, as I placed my hands on her stomach. She looked at me, a pleading look. I began to push. Her eyes immediately shot open, tongue hanging out. Her body began to spasm as all the hot sperm was pushed out, sending electric orgasms through out her entire body. She grabbed hold of my arm with one hand, squeezing it. The last bit of my juices was out, and Rainbow Dash looked normal again. With everything back to normal, she closed her eyes, passing out with the final seconds of bliss ending. I washed her off and carried her back to bed.

TWELVE O'CLOCK: NOON. Rainbow Dash's POV:

I woke up, Red sitting beside me. I looked at my stomach, wondering if what happened was a dream or not. I sat up, feeling exhausted.

"Easy, you just went through hell and back." He said, gently helping me sit up.

"So that wasn't... a dream?" I asked, staring straight at him.

"No, sorry." He said, scratching the back of his head. "I should probably have warned you about my cum production. With that potion I took a couple weeks ago, my size wasn't the only thing that increased."

"So thats why..." I said, as he finished my statement,

"Thats why I pulled out in the shower. Gotta admit though, this is the most I've ever made."

"Well, I know that now thanks..." I said, a laugh escaping my throat, feeling normal for the first time in six hours.

"You know..." I said, lowering my tone.

"Yeah?" He said, leaning in a little closer.

"It's not that it felt bad... Just maybe next time, you pull out within an hour?" I giggled,

Red laughed, "Maybe next time wait till I'm awake." He said, playfully shoving me.

"Now, you must be thirsty, maybe some lunch in bed?" He jumped up, smiling his dorky smile.

"Sure, sounds great!" I said, leaning back against the pillows, which I propped up to recline on.

"So what would you like?" He asked.

"Hmm... How about some eggs, French toast, bacon, three turkey sandwiches, some orange juice... Oh and a muffin. Actually make that two muffins." I asked.

"Heh, you still have your sense of humor..." He said, looking me dead in the eyes, realizing I wasn't joking...

He let out a long sigh before saying, "Coming right up!" He planted a kiss on my cheek and made his way to the kitchen. I smiled, relaxing against the soft pillows. I yelled out to him

"Scrambled!"

"I know" He yelled from the kitchen. Man, what a night. Wonder how the rest of the day will turn out. I can't wait to write to Celestia. Oh and I definitely have to tell Twilight. I wonder how much fun she had with Big Mac? I giggled to myself.

MEANWHILE: IN CANTERLOT.

"Princess Celestia, there's another letter for you, from Rainbow Da-" The guard froze, opening the door to Celestia's chambers. He walked in to her lying on her bed, naked, and playing with herself, reading the previous letter he had delivered the other day at the same time. She glared at the guard with a lust in her eyes. Her horn glowed, as the door slammed shut behind the guard, startling him. The letter was torn from his hand by her magic and set on the table. She spread her legs, showing the guard her perfect body, full breasts, and royal love slit.

"Strip, now." She demanded, staring at the armored guard. He gulped, not dreaming of disobaying a direct order from the Princess. He knew he was in for a night he wouldn't soon forget.

Sorry I havn't posted anything recently. I hope this makes up for it!

Tragedy

It's been several weeks, and I can't take it anymore. I'm going to see the doctor. Red grabbed his coat, walking with me to the Ponyville hospital. I signed in and took a seat. Even though it was still early in the morning, there were already a few people waiting. One woman that looked to be six months pregnant. A middle ages woman and her child, who was holding his arm, sobbing. And a tall elderly man, who looked to be sleeping on one of the benches. Not to mention the people I heard in the back, already being checked out. I waited about ten minutes before my name was called. I moved back with Red, seeing the doctor about my wings. I was in there for a couple hours. Getting several tests, X-Rays, everything. I just want to know why I still haven't been able to fly.

"Red?" The doctor said, peeking into the room.

"Yes?" Red said, seeing a worried look on the doctors face.

"Could I talk to you in private?" He said, motioning for his main office.

Red got up, following the doctor, stopping before leaving to room to look at Dash. They shared a look of confusion, not knowing why the doctor would ask to see him. After arriving in his office, he closed the door and sat down. He gave this look of despair, which made my heart drop.

"W..Why did you want to see me doctor?"

He took his glasses off and hung them off his white lab coat pocket, and gave me a stern look.

"I don't know how to tell you this, but... The damage to her wings are substantial." He said with grimace.

"What does... That mean?" I asked, feeling dread build up in my stomach.

"The nerves connecting her wings to her spine were severed from the severe trauma of the lightning bolt. She... May never fly again." He replied.

I froze, unable to process the information I was just given.

"Why are you telling me this?" I asked uneasily.

He looked me in the eyes, "I figured.. It would be better coming from you. You are her husband after all right?"

"No I'm... Her boyfriend. But I get it." I nodded half heartedly. I stood up and walked back to where Dash was waiting. I moved slow, as if time had slowed down. This is horrible, but the doctor is right... I am the one that should give her the bad news. Where the hell should I even start....

I heard movement outside the door, and saw Red walk in, closing the door behind him. His eyes were full of sorrow, on the verge of crying. I stood up, staring into his eyes. I was actually starting to grow frightened now.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Your wings..." Red choked out nervously.

"Y...yeah?" I stuttered, waiting for him to tell her what was paining him to say.

"The doctor said.. The main nerve in your wing was severed by the lightning bolt. And... You may not be able to fly anymore."

My heart sank, my mind went blank. It's as if time was standing still. I couldn't even speak. Then, everything shot back to life, being pulled into a hug. All I did was cry. It's the only thing I knew how to do at this point. The only emotion I felt was sadness, and I stood there, embraced in his arms, as it poured out. We sat there together. We just...sat there.

THREE DAYS LATER:

I walked out of the kitchen, holding a cup of hot chocolate. I walked into the bedroom,

"Dash? You okay? I made hot chocolate." I said, walking into the room. Dash was till lying there, staring at the ceiling. I walked over and set the cup on the night stand, then sat next to her on the bed.

"Dash please... You have to drink something." I pleaded with her. But she just laid there, silent, emotionless. I reached over, gently caressing her hand.

"I can't stand seeing you like this Dash. Please talk to me.." I begged.

She simply turned on her side, facing away from me, staring out the window. With a sigh, I got up and slowly left the room, turning back to say,

"Just remember... I'm in the other room, call me if you need anything alright?" I said, not expecting an answer. I left the door cracked, In case she needed me. Then I heard a knock at the door. I walked down the hall and unlocked the door, peeking out, to see Twilight, Rarity, and the rest of the gang.

"Can we come in?" I heard Fluttershy say, in her usual quiet tone. I opened the door, motioning for the couch.

As they sat down, Spike asked, "How has she been? We're all worried sick about her."

"I don't know if she is ready to talk yet. She has been laying in that bed for the past couple days." I stated with an extremely saddened tone. "Nothing I say will get her out of bed. She's barely eating.. She has barely drank either, and I'm worried."

"I haven't been able to find a spell for this... Not even Celestia knows how to fix her." Twilight said.

I looked at everyone, one by one, seeing their hollow attempt at a cheerful expression, turn into surprise as everyone wasn't looking at me anymore, but tilted to the right of me. I twist my head around, to see Rainbow Dash standing a few feet behind me. Her face covered in dried tears, only to be covered by the fresh ones forming under her eyes. She ran to me and I opened my arms, holding her closer than I have ever before. Her sobs muffled by my shirt.

"We'll get through this Dashy.... Together. I will always be here for you." I said, beginning to tear up myself. She looked up at me, looking into each other's tear stained eyes. I ran my hand through her hair, never wanting to leave her side again.

Forlorn Endeavour

ONE MONTH LATER: Red's POV

It's been about a month, and Rainbow Dash actually looks like she is cheering up. While I still believe she is sad, as it sometimes hits her early in the morning, when she usually flied around, clearing clouds, feeling the breeze in her face. I was with her every day, whenever she needed me. There were times she wanted to be alone, and I respected her wishes. I have searched every day for a spell, potion, or doctor that can fix her. But it looks like Rainbow Dash is starting to accept what has happened. Although most of the time, I can tell when she is just putting on a smile so that I won't worry, but I know.

THE NEXT MORNING: Red's POV

I woke up this morning to something strange. Rainbow Dash wasn't in bed. Where was she? At first I had thought maybe she was just using the rest room. Maybe she got up early, making breakfast? Usually when she does that I can smell it right away. But.. Nothing. I told myself I was just paranoid and to stop worrying. So I got up, did my average routine. Ate some food, drank a glass of orange juice, brushed my teeth, and took a shower. After I got dressed I went out for a stroll. Maybe she was at Twilight's? I got to her house in about 10 minutes and knocked on the door. She opened the door and smiled,

"Oh Red! I'm glad you're here, come in." She said, motioning to her couch.

I walked in and sat down, watching as she finished up a couple things.

"Just a moment." She said, putting a few books back on a shelf, "Just tidying up".

I waited patiently, thinking about Dash. Doesn't look like she's here, maybe she just left? Twilight finished up and sat down.

"Sorry about that.. How are you doing?" She asked.

"Good. You?" I asked with a sigh, stretching my arms and legs.

"I'm fine, how about Rainbow Dash? I haven't seen her at all today." She said, tying a knot in my stomach.

Starting to get worried, I asked, "You... Haven't seen her? She wasn't in bed when I woke up. She wasn't even home. I know it's probably nothing, but I just worry about her."

Twilight looked at me with a relaxed look, "She is probably just out on the town having a good time. I wouldn't worry too much. I could help you find her if you want?"

I held up my hands and said, "No no.. That's alright. I'll ask around Ponyville, maybe someone els has seen her." I got up and gave her a hug goodbye, and left. I was walking down to town square, but was stopped by Pinkie Pie.

"RED!" She yelled, stopping mere inches away from my face. I flew back from the sudden materialization of Pinkie, falling straight on my ass.

"Oh jeez! You okay Red?" She said in a sudden concerned tone, holding out a hand to pull me up.

"Yeah I'm fine, just startled me is all." I said, grunting as she pulled me up. "What's up?".

"Have you seen Rainbow Dash?" She said as I brushed the dirt off my pants.

"No? You mean you haven't seen her?" I asked, very surprised.

"Of course silly! Why in Equestria would I be asking if I knew? Although the thought of me not knowing where everybody in Ponyville is all at once at all times confuses me a bit..."

With both a raised eyebrow and the knot in my stomach growing tighter, I asked "Where was the last place you saw her?" I asked.

"In town square! I heard her in my head, like I hear all ponies, then I didn't hear her anymore!"

"That's weird.... Wait what??" I said, a curious tinge in my voice.

"Nothing!" She said, hopping off.

My brain needed to process what she said... But It can wait. Pinkie doesn't know where she is? Okay now I am getting nervous. Where the hell could she have gone? I suppose the best place to start would be town square. So I headed down and looked around, asking people along the way. With a long sigh, I sit down at the bench near the fountain. She isn't anywhere to be seen.. I need a break anyway. Then.... I heard something. People talking, gasping....screaming... I looked around to see a large crowd gathered around the clock tower, looking up at it. When my eyes rolled up, and my heart sank. It was Rainbow Dash! Standing on the ledge at the top of the clock tower. Oh my god! She's going to jump... But I.. I didn't... There would be time for questions later. I jumped up and bolted towards the crowd, never taking my eyes off Dash. I pushed my way to the front of the crowd, knocking people over in my charge. I had a clearer look at Rainbow Dash, and could see her crying.

"RAINBOW DASH!" I yelled, a look of horror pasted on my face.

Her expression changed from sadness, to surprise. Her sobbing stopped, looking down at me. The sudden shift of weight caused the thin surface to break under her feet. She spun around and grabbed onto the minute hand of clock. She was just dangling there, holding on to the long metal hand, the only thing keeping her from plummeting to her death. Thank god it was 10:15. I ran into the clock tower and climbed up the stairs, running as fast as I could to the top. After climbing 10 stories, I was a sweating. I ran into the inside of the clock room, seeing the gears grinding and clicking away. Then I saw her! Behind the glass, I saw the shadow of her body, flailing and hanging from the hand. I ran over to the glass, looking for a way to get to her. I banged my fists on the glass, yelling her name.

"RAINBOW DASH! I'm here just....Just hang on okay!" In a panic, I looked around the room, looking for something to break the glass. Then I looked up at the bell, gazing straight at the clapper inside it. I ducked inside the bell and began tugging on the long lump of metal. Finally I managed to rip it off, and hoist it over my shoulder.

"Hold on! I'm going to break the glass.." I announced, before hitting the thick blurred glass of the clock tower. It didn't break, but it did crack! I winded up for another swing and hit it again. The crack got a little larger. Panting and sweating from running up here, and trying to tear this thing off the bell, I backed up, lifting it over my head.

"BREAK DAMN IT!" I cursed, before throwing it at the window. It passed right through the glass, falling down into the crowd, who dispersed quickly before it hit the ground, along with the falling glass. From my point of view, she was hanging off the center of the tower, gripping onto the minute hand. I managed to break a large hole in the right side, I leaned out, only 3 feet away from her. I reached my arm out,

"Grab my hand Dash!" The knot in my stomach only growing tighter, filling me with fear. She reached one hand off towards me. Then, my eyes widened as I heard a loud clicking behind me. The minute hand slid from 10:30, to 10:31. Rainbow Dash slid from the center to the arrow at the end, slipping away from me. She screamed, quickly putting both hands back on the metal arm. When she hit the end, the pointed metal dug into her hand, blood beginning to drip down her arms. She grimaced as her hands were stabbed by the small metal, nearly letting go then and there.

"RED!" She yelled, tears streaming down her face.

"PLEASE HANG ON!" I yelled back, beginning to tear up myself. I got a grip on the glass and started to pull, breaking bits off as I inched closer and closer to her.

Rainbow Dash's POV.

"RED!" I yelled, slowly slipping from the blood stained steel.

"PLEASE HANG ON!" I heard him yell, barely managing to hear him with the sharp pain running down my arm. Strength leaving me, I closed my eyes.

"I'm so sorry Red..." I said aloud. Not being able to sustain my grip, I let go. I began to fall, but then... I was grabbed. My eyes shot open, and I looked up. Red! He was holding me up, dripping with sweat. His hands were cut open from the glass.

"For what?" He said, a smile on his face, covering up his exhaustion. I reached my hand up, holding on to his arm with both hands.

"Can you climb up?" He asked in a panic.

"No... It hurts too much!" I cried, holding on as tight as I could. "Can you pull me up.."

"Ya.... That's going to be a bit hard..." He said. I looked at his arm, seeing a large shard of glass, still attached to the clock tower, embedded into his arm, holding it in place.

I looked at him, His eyes were twin flakes of ember floating into the light from a roaring inferno. Our eyes locked, knowing we couldn't hold on forever. The blood and sweat covering our arms causing us to lose our grip.

"I can't hold on much longer..." I said in a calmer tone, having accepted my fate.

"Don't you DARE let go... DON'T YOU DARE!" He yelled, a new batch of tears welling under his eyes. A soft breeze blew around them. Sweat glistened in his hair, shimmering under the pale glow of the sunlight. His eyes were shadowed beneath wispy fringes, but the silver in them glinted like pools of liquid mercury. Her breath caught. It must have made a sound because his fingers tightened. His shaky exhale whispered down across her face.
“This,” he whispered so quietly I almost didn’t hear him. “Is why you are so bad for me.”

"What?" I said aloud. Slightly raising my tone.

"This life has no meaning to me if you are gone.." He said with his eyes, burning red from tears. “I promised I wouldn't let anything happen to you. No matter what I had to do, I said I would keep you safe.”

"Red..." I said, never losing eye contact.

"Sometimes bravery is nothing more than gritting your teeth through pain, and the work of every day, the slow walk toward a better life." He said, then giving a long pause.

"And sometimes it isn't." He said, his grip tightening harder than ever.

"What are you..." I said, suddenly falling. I saw him fall forward out with me, pulling me into a hug as we fell.

"RED NO!" I screamed as we began to fall together. He gripped me with both arms, pulling me close and embracing me.

"So long as I'm alive, I will keep you safe!" Time slowed down as I put my head on his chest.

"I'm sorry.. I am so sorry..." I said, listening to his heart beat, which was beating out of it's cage.

"Shh.." He whispered into my ears, rubbing his hand through my hair. "No words.."

We held onto each other, knowing the end was near. And just before we hit the ground, he quickly shifted his weight. I looked at him, as his back was now facing the ground, holding me to his chest. And before I could say anything..

Everything went black...

Diagnosis

"RED!" I screamed, sitting up in a hospital bed. The nurse standing next to me, who was about to stick an I.V. in my arm, jumped back, nearly knocking over the pump full of water next to her.

"Are you okay?!" She said, holding her hand to her chest.

I looked around, noticing I was back in the hospital. I jerked my head to the startled nurse and asked,

"Where's Red?"

"Who?" She responded, still flustered.

I jumped up and bolted for the door, nearly collapsing from a sudden wave of dizziness.

"Wait!" She said in a surprised tone, "You shouldn't be moving!"

I ran down the hall to the front desk.

"Where's Red?" I asked, starting to feel a pain in my leg.

"The red head?" The man at the counter asked.

"Yeah, is he here?" I asked impatiently.

"Uh huh, room 108, end of the hall." He said, pointing down past the room I woke up in. The doctor looked down and his eyes widened. "You... Shouldn't you be resting?"

I ignored him, running down the hall. The closer I got to his room, the more the pain started to grow in my left calf. I burst into the room, my heart stopped. I saw Red lying there, I.V. in his arm, bruised and covered in cuts and scrapes. He was unconscious. I took a step forward, feeling the pain in my leg climb to unbearable levels. I screamed out in pain and fell forward on my hands and knees. Then I looked at my leg for the first time. My calf was bruised and swollen a purplish color. I must have broken my leg in the fall... About 30 seconds later, two nurses ran in and tried to help me to my feet. I pushed them away and started to crawl to Red's bed. His almost lifeless body lying limp, chest weakly rising up and down. The faint beeping of his life coming from the machine next to him.

"Red..." I muttered aloud, vision fading in and out, blurred from the pain.

Then before I knew it, I passed out. About half an hour later, I woke up back in the hospital bed. I tried to get up, but was held down. I looked down at my body, and was restrained by leather straps, binding me to my bed. I struggled, trying to get out of them. I had to see Red... I need to be with him. Then the door to my room opened, and the doctor from the front desk walked in.

"You gave us a mighty scare young lady..." He said, giving me a stern look.

"Red... I have to.." I said, in a haze.

"He's fine." The doctor said, interrupting me. "He is just asleep. I am extremely surprised he survived a fall that large. He is very lucky..."

"Why is he hurt... And I'm not... Well, as bad I mean." I said, waiting a response.

The doctor gave a small pause before saying, "Well, reports from the crowd say he cushioned your fall. Getting as far as he did was brave enough, but to risk his life to save you? He must really love you."

I laid there, unable to speak. He...saved me. This is all my fault... He is in there suffering because I am an idiot! I need to talk to him...

"Can I... see him?" I asked, a slight sadness in my voice.

"You're leg is pretty bad, I'd have to get you a wheel chair, or crutches. Take your pick." He said.

"Crutches please." I asked. I've already lost the ability to fly, like hell if I'm going to give up my legs. A broken leg isn't going to stop me! He left the room and returned a few moments later, crutches in hand. He untied the braces holding me down and helped me up. I knew I would have to get used to walking like this, but I couldn't think about that right now. The doctor walked me down to his room and opened the door. I walked in, the clicking of the crutches pounding against the floor, and sat down in one of the chairs along the wall of the room. I watched him, never moving an inch, waiting for him to wake up. Feeling extremely tired, I tried to stay awake, but dosed off half an hour later. I sat there, sleeping a dreamless sleep, until I heard something that snapped me awake.

Red's POV:

"Dash!" I screamed, holding on to her as long as I could.

"Red! Please don't let go!" She cried, tears streaming down her face.

Flustered, and pushed to the edge myself, began crying. "I can't... I'm not strong enough!"

"I love you Red!" She said, knowing this would be the last time she would be able to say that. The blood running down my arm started to wet my hands, making it impossible to hold on. Then... She slipped away.

"RAINBOW DASH!" I screamed as I watched her fall. Light fading from reality, covering my vision in darkness. She fell as if the entire world was watching this moment. Then she faded away, leaving only the darkness to be observed. I fell to my knees, sobbing. I closed my eyes,

"This can't be happening... This isn't real!" I repeated to myself, over and over again. Then I heard something. At first it was barely audible, and I just ignored it. But then It grew louder, and I realized it was footsteps. Before I could even open my eyes, I felt a hand on my chin. I opened my eyes, seeing Rainbow Dash standing in front of me. She tilted my head up and looked me in the eyes.

"Don't ever give up.." She said, as the darkness around me turned to growing yellow light. Her features turning from a frown, into a smile. The light grew so bright, I was forced to close my eyes. Then it stopped... I opened my eyes, to notice I was at the hospital, lying in a bed. My eyes turned to the corner of the room, to Rainbow Dash, who was asleep in the chair. I was stopped by a twinge of pain that ran through my entire body. I cringed, clamping my teeth together as I let out a groan of agony. That's when Rainbow Dash woke up, her eyes wide. She ran over to the side of the bed,

"Are you okay?!" She said, worry in her voice.

"I'm... Fine. Just a flesh wound..." I said, giving a small chuckle. She went from worry, to anger.

"What were you thinking! You could have died. Your so stupid! You stupid...Stupid idiot!" She yelled.

"Dash I.." I was interrupted by her two lips pressing against mine. To my surprise, I noticed she had been, and still is crying. Tears streaming down her face as we locked together. I closed my eyes, never wanting to break away. Her hand on my cheek. Our lips finally parted, a single stream of saliva stretching from our mouths as we gasped for air.

"I love you Dash.." I said, never breaking eye contact.

"You talk too much." She whispered, before leaning in for another kiss.

ONE WEEK LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

"Well, how is he doctor?" I asked.

"He's doing just fine. Only a few sprains, but it will heal. You are both very lucky to be alive." He said with a smile.

I gave a smile too, and asked, "Awesome, can I see him now?"

"Of course, right this way." He said, beginning to walk down the hall. As I followed, i noticed a glimmer of metal, sticking out from his back pocket. It was a key. With a wicked smile, I slipped the key from his pocket and put it in mine.

"I know the rest of the way doc, thanks!" I said, speeding past him and turned the corner. I found my way to a changing room, thats when I saw it.

"Perfect!" I said, grabbing the clothes off the rack.

Red's POV:

"Bastard!" I yelled, slamming the A button on the controller.

"WHY! WON'T! YOU! DIIIIE!" I screamed, leaning in, eyes focused on the screen. About a minute later I heard the door creak open.

"Sorry I know you've already told me, I'll keep my voice down." I said, not getting a response. I glanced over to the door to see....

"Rainbow Dash...?" I said, mouth hanging to the floor. She was at the door, wearing a tight Nurse's outfit... And nothing underneath.

"It's time for your check up." She said before turning around and locking the door, then covering the window on the door. My heart started to race, and she knew it.

"Looks like your symptoms are showing!" She said, looking at the huge bulge lifting the green gown I was wearing into the air like a circus tent. I was speechless... She came over and lifted the gown over my now erect member.

"Oh my... It's worse than I thought." She said soothingly, licking her lips. She lifted her leg over me and sat in my lap, my cock resting in between her soft ass cheeks. I reached out and put my hands on her hips, only for her to grab my arms and push them down to the bed. She grabbed the leather restraints and tied my hands to the bed.

"Uh uh uh." She said, waving her finger, then leaning in, mere inches away from my face.

"Let the doctor do her job." She whispered. I leaned forward, hypnotized by her scent wafting through the air, attempting to meet her lips with mine, only for her to slowly move back just out of my reach. She pulled out a stethoscope and listened to my heart.

"Mmm... Your blood pressure is high..." She said, staring into my eyes.

"I don't think that's how you check my blood pres-" I said, being interrupted by a strong slap across the face.

"Don't tell the doctor how to do her job." She said with a stern tone. My face stung, and if I had a mirror it would probably be red as blood. As much as it hurt, it was only turning me on more... She shifted around, still in my lap, and faced my manhood, which sitting down, reached all the way up to her chest. She slowly leaned back, laying her entire body on top of mine. The back of her head in front of mine. She curled up her legs into a missionary position, using her feet to massage my shaft. I moaned, feeling pleasure from the unnatural smoothness of her soles. I watched as each individual toe moved, almost like fingers, kneading and squeezing my cock. She tilted her head to the left and cradled my head on her shoulder, rubbing her hand through my hair. The aroma I was constantly inhaling from her hair was driving me insane. She doesn't just feel good, she smells good. Almost like what shampoo she used was made for her.

"It looks like we need to reduce the swelling." She said aloud, stopping the massage and standing to her feet. I was close... I need to cum. I need release!

"Stop... Teasing me" I begged, beginning to pant. "Please..."

"Hush, It's time for treatment." She said, reaching into a bag I hadn't noticed until now. She pulled out a long blue and white bag.

"What's that?" I asked, beginning to get a little nervous.

"I think you'll know in a second." She said, getting closer to the bed. She took the bag and wrapped it around my dick. "I've diagnosed you as having an "Elevated Sex Drive. It's time to begin treatment..."

"HNNGN!" I muttered, tensing up as It was wrapped around. It was an ice pack!

"Ice first, heat later. We have to get the swelling down." She smiled devilishly. She was enjoying every moment of this. My hands clenched as I tried to struggle free from the bonds, but they weren't budging.

"Sto...Stop.." I said, barely able to speak with the icy grip holding onto me.

"Shhh... It'll be over soon." She said, rubbing the pack up and down. Finally she took it off just before it started to soften.

"Good." She said, "Now It's time for heat." She pulled her outfit down, freeing her breasts from her clothes. She sat down on my outstretched legs, and put my cock between her breasts, which seemed to be a size larger than normal, now DD cups, verging on E. She stuffed the tip in her mouth, swirling her tongue in a circular motion. I could feel a wetness growing near my legs, which I could only imagine was from the juices dripping from her wet pussy. The sudden warmth of her mouth on my dick brought back all the pleasure from before, two fold. My tongue lolled out of my mouth, hanging there, while my arms strained against the restraints. I felt my balls begin to swell, I couldn't take much more.

"Going to...cum!" I warned her.

"Not yet you aren't." She said, immediately stopping, replacing her warm touch with the ice pack once again. I cringed again, feeling my orgasm fading back into my body, building up a release that I desperately needed. After a minute of ice, she took it off and said, "Looks like we are going to need a bit more heat." She climbed on to the bed, standing over my cock. She began to lower herself onto it, pushing the tip against her soaked cunt. The burning touch of her slit against me sent me waves of pleasure, as my icy shaft making a gasp escape from her mouth. The pressure increased dramatically, until,

"GOD!" She screamed as I entered her, freezing her insides. As she moved up and down, slowly warming my shaft, I felt an ecstasy I haven't felt in weeks! Then... There was a knock on the door.

"Hello? Are you okay in there? Why is the door locked?" I heard what I could only imagine as a worried nurse outside the door.

"Yes!" Dash said, trying to keep a calm voice. "I am in the middle of a delicate procedure!"

"What was the scream?" The nurse said, muffled by the door.

"Just a uh.... a SpiIIDDER" She screamed, feeling an orgasm rush through her. "I just killed it! You can go now."

"Alright... Just call if you need anything." The nurse said before turning around and heading back around the corner.

"I think you need more heat..." She said, lifting herself off of my shaft, and moving it back towards her ass. After a minute of fiddling with it, she pushed the tip in. An explosion of peppery heat engulfed me.

"That's the stuff..." She said, relaxing onto it. She slowly moved up and down, tightening harder and harder. I felt my balls swell even larger, signaling my impending orgasm.

"I'm going to cum... You remember what happened last time?" I said, trying to warn her.

"I know... I want it all. Fill me Red! Make me explode!" She said, raising her voice an octave.

And with that, I was pushed over the edge, and unleashed hell. She came, her fluids washing down onto the bed. Her eyes went wide as my cock grew twice the size to make room for all the semen flowing through it, sending another electric surge through her body. I watched as her stomach grew in intervals with my pulsations. Her eyes rolled up and her tongue stuck out as her body began to twitch.

"Maybe I should pull out..." I said nervously, watching her expand. I heard her choke as her stomach churned and gurgle. My cum began to flow from her mouth and nose as she gagged on the upchucking jizz exploding through her. In a panic I pulled out. The flow stopped, and she gasped for air.

"Are you okay?" I asked surprised.

"That..." She mumbled.

"What is it?" I asked, leaning in closer.

"WAS AWESOME!" She said, looking down at her stomach. "How the hell do you do that?"

"Uhh..." I stuttered, confused.

"I should go change. I'll clean this up don't worry. Oh and I should probably... Drain myself a bit." She said, patting her bulging stomach. Before I had a chance to say anything, she planted a kiss on my lips, taking the last bit of sense I had left, then unlocked the door and walked out. Well... This was quite the... Experience. Can't say I didn't like it though. Man I'm thirsty though. I reached up for the "Help" button, only realizing the messy state me and the bed was in.

"Maybe I should have thought that through.." I mumbled to myself. The door opened and the nurse walked in.

"Yes? What did you ne-" She paused, seeing the mix of sexual fluids covering the bed and ground, along with my softening dick hanging out.

"Um..." I said. "This isn't as bad as it looks?"

THE NEXT MORNING: Rainbow Dash's POV

I was woken up by a knock at the door. I got up, stretched, and opened the door.

"Hello" I said, greeting the mailman.

"Are you Rainbow Dash?" He said

"Yeah? Why?" I replied.

"Letter for you." He said while digging into his bag.

"Please sign here." He said, handing me a clipboard. I grabbed it, wrote my name, and handed it back.

"Thanks, you have a good day ya hear?" He said in a cheery voice, then walked off down the road. Maybe It's a fan letter. Heh, guess I am more popular than I thought. I tore open the letter and read it. As I read the letter, my breathing slowed, my heart stopped.

Red's POV

I sat there, staring at the ceiling. Wondering what I'll do when i get out of here. Maybe buy some new furniture? Maybe...A ring? Ya thats it! I'll get a ring and propose to her. Has to be a special place though, but where... I got lost in thought, thinking of what to do. Suddenly the door to my hospital room flew open and Rainbow Dash bolted in. She stopped at the door and stared at me.

"Whats wrong Dash?" I asked, startled from the sudden interruption. She just stood there with a serious look on her face... Holding an opened letter in hand.

Hope

"A letter?" I asked curiously. "What does it say?"

She handed the letter to me, a lost look apon her face.

"Read it.." She said, staring at the letter. I opened already torn envelope and unfolded the paper within.

"From a "Dr. Cross" I said, looking up at her. "Isn't he the one that did the X-Rays on your wings?"

"Mmhm..." She mumbled, "Keep reading."

"Due to new breakthroughs, we have sent this letter to you as to ask you to return for a follow up appointment. A new option has come up that might be able to repair your damaged wings." I stopped reading and looked at her.

"Is this real?" I asked, surprised.

"Yep!" She said, jumping towards me for a hug. I opened my arms as she fell into me laughing. I couldn't help but smile, knowing she would be back to her old self!

"I'm going to fly again!" She yelled with enthusiasm.

"That's fantastic! We are already at the hospital, might as well stop by his office." I said. A couple minutes passed as I stood up and pulled myself into a wheel chair. She fell back into her previously saddened state, following me down the hall to Doctor Cross' office.

"Oh you're here!" Cross said, motioning them to sit down as he closed the door behind us. "Oh well, it looks like you beat me too it!" He said, looking at me. I gave him an un-amused stare, verging on face palming.

"Yes yes, sorry." He said, clearing his throat. "Not funny at all."

"Well doc? What's this about fixing her wings?" I asked, wanting to get straight to the point.

"Ah yes, the operation. There is a new surgery that just passed through experimental stage. Are you thinking about it?" He said, looking at Rainbow Dash.

"Of course she is!" I stated, "She would do anything to have her wings back. How much does it cost?"

"About 8,000 bits." He said

"8,000 BITS?!" I yelled.

"Well yes.." Cross said, backing up slowly, "I stated it all in the letter, didn't she tell you?" I looked at Dash, who was back to her depressed self, not making eye contact with me. I saw the look on her face, a knot welling up in my stomach.

"Alright we'll do it." I said. Rainbow Dash's eyes widened and she snapped her head up, looking at me.

"Great! When can we schedule you in?" He asked, pulling out a form.

"Tomorrow afternoon." I replied.

"Good good... There are a few things we must discuss though before you make it final." He said, beginning to sound a bit serious.

"Like what?" I asked, sounding a bit worried.

"For one, the survival rate..." He said, looking me in the eyes. "It's 60%"

"What?! Don't you think that's something that should come up at the START of the conversation!" I said, anger growing in my voice. He raised his hands defensively and said,

"Sorry! You just rushed me a bit. Nothing is final, you can still back out if you want."

I thought about it. It's too big a risk to take... 60 is decent... The odds ARE in our favor.. But I-

"I'll do it." Rainbow Dash said. I turned my head, giving her a surprised look. She walked to the table and signed her name.

"Alright then. We'll see you tomorrow then?" Cross said, giving her a look, waiting for confirmation. She simply nodded, then stormed out the door. I grabbed the wheels and rolled after her.

"Dash wait!" I yelled down the hall. She stopped and turned around, giving me an angry look.

"What the HELL are you doing?" She said, nearly knocking me to the floor.

"What are you talking about?" I said, confused.

"We don't have that kind of money! Why would you say we did?" She said, never breaking eye contact.

"I'll find a way Dash, I always do..." I said, being interrupted by her.

"NO! This isn't funny!" She screamed, attracting the stares of a couple nurses and doctors in the hall. "We can't afford it, there's nothing you can do, so stop being so god damn optimistic!"

"Dash..." I said.

"We just... We can't.." She said, still sounding irritated.

"Oh yeah?" I said, gaining a more stern tone. "Then why did you sign it?"

She paused, breaking eye contact for the first time.

"Maybe you signed it because you still have hope." I retorted, "Because you haven't given up, and I sure as hell haven't either. So don't sit there and tell me what we can't do."

I reached out and grabbed her hand. She returned eye contact, tears beginning to form.

"I'm so scared.." She said, falling to her knees.

"I know Dash... I know." I said, embracing her as she sobbed.

TWO HOURS LATER: Town Square: Rainbow Dash's POV

"This is SOO stupid..." I said, sitting down against the fountain.

"It'll work!" Red said with a cheery tone. "Patience Dash."

"Patience is the one thing I don't have, even if we had the time." I said, "The surgery is only two days away, how do you plan on getting the money?"

"Just a second..." He said, unfolding a large piece of paper and sticking it to the wall of the building. "There we go!" I read the sign for the first time.

ACCEPTING DONATIONS FOR SURGERY.

"That's it? Charity?" I said, a bit let down.

"It'll work, just be patient." Red said, sitting down against the building. A minute later, someone walked by and dropped a bit in the bucket, then walked off. "See! Already got one."

"Red..." I said unenthusiasticly.

"Just give it time..." Red said.

"I appreciate it Red, really... But I am going to go home now. You can stay if you want." I said, before getting up and moving down the road to Red's house.

Red's POV

"Dash wait!" I yelled. I sighed, unable to convince her. I climbed back up into the wheelchair and was about to follow her home, then BAM. Something hit me, knocking me out of the chair and onto the ground. The sudden pressure on my leg send a spike of pain through it.

"What the hell! Watch where you're goi-" I stopped, realizing who it was.

"Oh my... I'm sorry Red, I didn't see you there.. Are you okay?" Fluttershy said, helping me back into my chair.

"Yeah I'm fine, what's the rush?' I said, sounding more curious than angry.

"I was trying to catch Angel, he hates baths." She said, looking around, sighing. "I guess I can find him later."

"Well... I hope you have better luck than me." I said, starting to lose hope.

"What do you mean? What's wrong?" She asked quizzically.

"I'm trying to raise money to pay for Dash's surgery, but it looks like no one here is in the giving mood..." I said.

"Well... Maybe I can help." She said with a smile, looking up at me with her half covered face.

Rainbow Dash's POV

I got to the door and made my way to our room, laid down, and stared at the ceiling. I appreciate what Red is trying to do, but It's just not enough... His heart is in the right place. I closed my eyes and dozed off.

I hung there, clinging to Red for dear life, a storm brewing over us, the wind blowing, thrashing me around.

"Please don't let go!" I cried, watching as tears streamed down his face.

"Dash.... I love you." He said

"I love you Red!" I screamed over the force of the winds. Everything grew quiet as our eyes met. The last ounce of strength faded, as our fingers slipped apart.

I woke up sweating, heart racing. It was morning... Red wasn't here? He couldn't still be sitting out there could he? I shook my head, thinking about the dream. I have had that nightmare every night... At first I thought it was just brought up by what happened a week ago... But now I'm starting to think there is more too it. I have been so pessimistic, bringing everyone down... Everyone....down... with me. Oh my god... I got up from the bed and ran to the door, grabbing a bucket and another sign. I got down to the town square about 10 minutes later, only to notice Red was gone, but his sign and bucket was still there. I sat down, looking in the bucket. There was a few more bits in it than yesterday. I leaned back against the wall, waiting. A few people passed by, dropping some bits in, then a few more... And.... a lot more. Everyone that entered the square was stopping by! Apple bloom and the "Crusaders", Grandma smith, Mr. and Mrs. Cake, Cheerilee and the entire school... They were all crowding around, dropping bits into the buckets. Then the crowd parted, and walking down the aisle of people, Red! And behind him Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, even spike!

"How did you..." I said in disbelief.

"We couldn't leave a friend in need darling." Rarity said.

"Wait... Where's Pinkie?" I asked. Then I heard a faint voice, growing into a loud scream.

"LOOK OUT BELOW!" It said. I looked up to see Pinkie parachuting down with a bucket. She landed and ripped her parachute off, and ran up to me. "HI DASH!" She screamed.

"Why are you screaming?" I asked, leaning back.

"I'M NOT!" She said. "COULD YOU SPEAK A BIT LOUDER?"

Shaking my head, Twilight pushed Pinkie out of the way.

"Plus we had a little convincing to go along with it." Twilight said, pointing to the back of the forming crowd. I looked in the direction, to see Red and Fluttershy!

"Red!" I said with a smile, getting up and jumping in his arms.

"Told you I could do it." He said, holding me tight.

ONE HOUR LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV.

With a sigh, I looked up at the sky, watching the clouds pass.

"We are still 1000 short..." I said, turning my head to Red.

"Hey we got this far didn't we?" Red said, watching Twilight and the others walk around the square, each holding a bucket.

"It doesn't look like we are going to get anymore money..." I said, holding my arms around my legs, staring at the ground, starting to feel my hopes drop.

"I wouldn't say that." I heard a familiar voice say. I lifted my head to see who the culprit was. Standing in front of me, head raised, was Princess Celestia!

"Princess!" I said surprised, jumping to my feet, bowing. "What... Are you doing here?"

She smiled and said, "I heard about your situation, and thought I could help." She pointed up into the sky, and what i saw made my mouth drop. Overhead I saw the Wonderbolts! Flying down towards me, holding two buckets of bits.

"Omigosh ohmigosh! The Wonderbolts!" I said, running over to greet them.

"If Celestia goes out of her way to help you, you are okay on my list kid!" Spitfire said, putting me in a headlock and giving me a noogie. Oh my gosh, Spitfire is giving me a noogie! This is the best day of my life!!

FRIDAY: Red's POV

I heard Rainbow Dash gulp. We were standing in front of the hospital, holding eachothers hands. Twilight and the gang standing with us. Just before we walked in, Dash pulled me to a stop.

"Shit!" Rainbow Dash said, "I forgot one of the buckets at home!"

"Don't worry just give them what you have now, I'll run back and get it." I said, turning around and jogged back home. I went through the door and in my room, grabbed the bucket and turned around. What I saw confused me. The bathroom door was closed... I set the bucket down and walked to the door. I knocked,

"Anyone there? If yes, why are you in my house??" I said, not getting a response. I opened the door slowly and peeked inside. There was no one there. Maybe it just got shut accidentally, oh well. I was about to turn around, when I noticed something on the counter... I walked up to it and picked it up. It was a pregnancy test. And it was... Positive..

Rainbow Dash....

TEN MINUTES LATER: Rainbow's POV

I sat there with my friends, in the waiting room. Nervous and scared out of my mind. Then Red came through the door, holding the last bucket.

"Hey Dash... Can I talk to you for a moment?" He said, beckoning me to follow him.

"What is it?" I asked, trying not to sound as nervous.

"Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?" He asked, forcing my face a bright shade of red.

"I wasn't ready... I... I didn't know how to tell you." I said, my nerves acting up full force. I heard a sigh from Red, and he pulled me to the center of the room.

"Red..?" I asked, wondering what he was doing.

"Rainbow Dash, I have loved you since the day I saw you." He said

"I know that, why ar-" I said, before being interrupted.

"Shh, Just let me finish." He said, taking a step back. "There are so many ways to be brave in this world. Sometimes bravery involves laying down your life for something bigger than yourself, or for someone else. Sometimes it involves giving up everything you have ever known, or everyone you have ever loved, for the sake of something greater."

"Red..." I said, trying to hold back tears.

"It’s one thing to fall in love. It’s another to feel someone else fall in love with you, and to feel a responsibility toward that love." He continued. "I knew the second I met you that there was something about you I needed. Turns out it wasn’t something about you at all. It was just you."

For the first time since he saved me over a week ago, I saw him stand. He weakly stood up. I could see the pain he was feeling from his still aching legs. He knelt down on one knee and said,

"I never loved you any more than I do, right this second. And I’ll never love you any less than I do, right this second. And in case I don't get another chance to say this..."

I covered my mouth with my hand, surprised, and tears streaming down my face. He pulled out a ring, and was holding it out to me.

"Rainbow Dash, Will you marry me?" He asked. I couldn't even breathe, my head spinning.

"Not to rush you or anything, but this hurts more than it looks.." He said with a smile.

"Yes! Yes yes yes!" I chanted. He gently grabbed my hand, and slipped the ring on.

I looked back at the others, Rarity and Fluttershy were crying. The others were smiling and hugging each other.

"I guess they over heard us..." I said

"YOU BET WE DID!" Pinkie appeared in between us. The sudden scream in my ear made me swing around in reflex and smack her in the head. She fell to the ground, shaking her head.

"Oh god Pinkie, you scared me. Sorry.." I said, rushing over to help her up.

"Hey! I can hear now. Thanks Rainbow Dash!" She said, jumping up. "Oh and congratulations!" She said, throwing streamers into the air.

"Hey uh.." Red said, "I know this is probably an awkward question after a proposal but... Could one of you help me back into my chair? I can't feel my legs..."

We all burst into laughing as me and Pinkie helped him to the wheelchair.

"Rainbow Dash?" I heard a womanly voice call my name. I turned to see a nurse with a clipboard peeking out into the waiting room. My heart began to race again as I looked at Red, hoping he would give me confidence.

"I'll stay with you." He said, hugging me. A few minutes passed, and I was in one of the hospital gowns, lying on a stretcher. As it rolled, I held Red's hand, who was being pushed by Applejack.

"Sorry, but you will have to wait out here, no one is allowed in the surgery room." The doctor said. Me and Red locked our eyes together. I was scared...

Red broke the silence, "I wanted to tell you that wherever I am, whatever happens, I’ll always think of you, and the time we spent together, as my happiest time. I’d do it all over again, if I had the choice. No regrets."

I squeezed his hand as I was pushed into the room, and the doors shut.

A Fresh Start

THREE HOURS LATER: Red's POV

I sat there, tapping my foot on the tile floor.

"How long until she wakes up?" I asked.

"I don't know sir. It's different for everyone." The nurse said, not even looking away from the papers she is filling out. I groaned in frustration. I hate not knowing! The waiting is agonizing. Minutes seem like hours. Then finally I heard it.

"Red?" A man called from down the hall.

"Yes?" I shouted back eagerly.

"She is awake if you want to talk to her." He said, returning back to his office. I jumped up and ran down the hall and into the room.

"Hey Red..." She said in a groggy voice, eyes half open.

"Dash! I'm so glad your okay." I said, giving her a hug.

"Nice to see you too." She muttered.

"You okay?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah just... A bit sleepy." She yawned.

"I'm just happy your not... You know." I said, scratching my head.

"Don't worry silly." She said, placing a hand on my cheek. "I'm not going anywhere."

I smiled, putting my hand over the one gently caressing my cheek. "I'll let you rest, have a good sl-" I said, being interrupted by a crash at the door.

"Me first ME FIRST!" I heard Pinkie yell, wrestling with Spike to get through the door. As I turned around I saw a purple aura around both of them as they were levitated through one by one, by who I could only guess was Twilight Sparkle. With the blockage clear, her 6 friends flooded through the door, crowding around Rainbow Dash.

"I'm so glad your okay!" Spike said, climbing to his feet.

"I'm gladder!" Pinkie said, bumping him out of the way.

"Calm down girls.." Twilight said, "Give her some air."

"I am sure we are all 'Equally' Glad to see her." Rarity said elegantly.

"Hey girls.." Rainbow Dash said, surprised by the sudden amount of people in the room.

"Hey, lets calm down." I said, stepping in the middle of them. "She just woke up, and she's tired. Let's let her sleep."

"She just had surgery yall, let's give her some time to relax?" Applejack said.

"Sounds good to me." Twilight said, motioning to the door. "Just tell us if anything happens alright?"

I nodded, taking a seat in the chair next to Dash. After they left, Rainbow Dash took a nap, and I sat by her, relieved to know she was going to be able to fly again.

ONE WEEK LATER: Red's POV

I was walking down the path back home, then heard someone call my name. I turned around just in time to see Rainbow Dash zip past me.

She swooped past, stopping directly behind me.

"Hey hotshot." She said, giving me a slap on the ass. I jumped in surprise, wondering where all this energy is coming from.

"Well someones in a good mood!" I said rubbing my butt, surprised by the strength of her slap.

"I'm just happy to see you is all!" She said, starting to hover off the ground, flying in a reclined position.

"Heh.. I miss this side of you." I said, remember the incident weeks prior.

"You haven't seen a bit of it yet!" She said, speeding directly up to me. "Hey you up for some fun?"

"Sure, what were you thin-" I was interrupted as she wrapped her arms around me and started to pull me into the air. My instincts kicked in and i latched onto her. She flew higher than I have ever been before, speeding past the clouds.

"OKAY I'VE HAD ENOUGH FUN!" I screamed, closing my eyes. Then suddenly she stopped. I opened my eyes and looked down, unable to see the ground through the clouds. I looked up at her, she was staring at me with a smile. That's when I noticed something different about her... A flame in her eyes. I had no idea what...

"What are you waiting for?" She said, interrupting my train of thought.

"What are... Why are you?" I said confused.

"Take off your clothes." She said.

"But... How am I going to do that, I'm holding on to yo-" I said, immediately beginning to plummet through the clouds. As much as I didn't want to die, I knew she wouldn't let me fall to my death, knowing she would just repeat the process until I was naked, and began to strip. Finally managing to get my clothes off, as hard as it was from the wind resistance I was nearly unclothed. As soon as I let my underwear go, I felt like I just got tackled by a quarterback. My velocity slowed as I realized Rainbow Dash had tackled me out of the air. She lowered us down onto a cloud, sitting on it as if it was a bed.

"Whoa whoa wait! You know only Pegasai are the only ones that can sit on clouds right?" I asked panicked.

"Who said you would be sitting on the cloud?" She said as she landed on the cloud, me sitting on her now perched lap, my legs poking through the clouds. Her hand wandered down, gripping my softened cock.

"Hey big boy..." She said, starting me straight in the eyes, "There is a reason I am so happy."

"Oh?" I stuttered, still slightly shaken, but beginning to get hard.

"I got a letter earlier." She said smiling.

"Should I ask who it's from?" I asked, beginning to get curious.

"Only if you want to be married to a Wonderbolt!" She said, pulling me into a hug.

"You got accepted?!" I said in disbelief. "That's great!"

"When I read the letter, my heart nearly jumped out of my chest. I was so happy and... Oh hello.." She said, looking down at the cock rising in between her breasts. "I guess I'm not the only one excited." She giggled, putting her hands around it, pushing her two breasts tightly around my shaft. I moved in, kissing her on the neck.

"Ohh" She moaned, "I guess you really are as excited as me.."

"My wife is not only the sexiest Pegasus on the planet, but a Wonderbolt." I said, whispering in her ear. "I think we should celebrate."

"Now you know why I brought you up here." She said, smiling. She laid back, positioning my shaft to her entrance, quickly penetrating her already wetting pussy.

"Now..." She said, beginning to breathe heavy. "Show me how much to love me."

"You got it!" I said, pulling back and thrusting all the way in. She gasped, feeling sparks fly through her.

"Fuck!" She screamed, digging her nails into my back. I began to thrust back and forth, starting fast, and rough.

"Hnng... Slow down!" She said surprised.

"I think a little punishment is in order." I said, remembering the fun she had with the ice pack.

"Oh...I- See...." She said between pained grunts. "Gimme all... You got!"

I smiled devilishly, reaching back and shoving two fingers in her ass. She let out an immediate yelp, unexpecting the sudden intrusion.

"Wait not th-" She managed to say before gasping as I bit hard on her left nipple.

"Come on Dash, you said you were a Wonderbolt!" I said, snickering at her.

"I... AM!" She screamed through a mix of pain and pleasure. "Your asking.. for it!"

I took my fingers out of her ass and squeezed both her breasts. Her mouth open in an O of ecstasy as she felt an orgasm crash through her, wings extending in full beauty. That's when I remembered where we were. As her wings extended, she pushed the cloud apart, causing us to start plummeting.

"DAAAASH!" I screamed as we plummeted, stuck together, me still inside her. She wrapped her arms and legs around me.

"Time to show you how a Wonderbolt does it!" She yelled, stopping our descent and ricocheted forward. I held on tight, moving my hips back and forth as she flew us through the sky, gaining more and more speed.

"Dash! I'm going to cum!" I screamed, seeing her near the edge too. The pressure kept building and building until...

ELSWHERE: Twilight Sparkle's POV

"Hey Pinkie, you seen Rainbow Dash around?" I asked, trying to keep track of her bouncy movement.

"Nope!" She said, jumping from stone to stone, playing hopscotch with herself. Then I heard a loud crash. I turned around to find the source of the noise... Then i looked up. Off in the distance a large circular wave of colors spread out under the clouds. It was a Sonic Rainboom! A large shockwave flew past me, making my hair fly back. I covered my eyes from the wind bashing against me. My head tilted back and i saw Pinkie staring straight at the rainbow.

"Oooo-" She tried to say, only puffing her cheeks out from the on-coming gust. Finally it died down, my hair looking like a disaster.

"Found her!" Pinkie mumbled, her mouth stuck open. She shook her head, restoring her face to normal.

"She has had her wings back for a week and she is already showing off..." I sighed, brushing my hair down with my hand, only to have it bounce back into its backwards pointed position.

"Aw come on Twilight, shes just having fun!" Pinkie said in her high pitched cheery voice.

"Well i guess you're right..." I said, "But where's red?"

"Oh! I saw Rainbow Dash carry him off somewhere." Pinkie said, still hopping up and down.

"Well... I guess i shouldn't worry. They are probably having fun right now anyways." I said, turning around and heading home.

A Dark Turn

TWO DAYS LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

"Annnnd clear..." I said, flying through the last cloud in the sky. "DONE!" I yelled, zooming off toward town square. I slow down, gliding over the town. I spotted Fluttershy walking down the road and flew down to say hi. While flying down, I felt a twinge of pain in my left wing.

"OW!" I screamed, plummeting to the ground. It wasn't until I hit the ground did I realize the dirt was softer than normal...

"Oww!" I heard someone say. I looked down, and noticed I had crashed into Fluttershy!

"Oh jeez! I'm sorry Fluttershy." I said, jumping off her and holding out a hand. I helped her up and she brushed herself off.

"Oh that's fine... Are you okay?" She asked kindly.

"Yeah I'm okay." I said, looking her up and down for any cuts or scrapes.

"You sure?" She asked, tilting her head.

"Ya, my wing just started hurting is all." I said, folding it around and caressing it with my hands.

"Oh my... Maybe you should get it checked out?" She said, changing to a worried, but caring tone.

"It's probably nothing, don't worry about it!" I said, putting an arm on her shoulder. "So, what's up?"

"Nothing much I guess... Just going to pick up some food for Angel. He has been eating a lot lately." She said, brushing her hair to the side.

"Interesting..." I said, eyes wandering away from her. I had noticed Spike sitting against the wall of the cake shop. "Hey uh Fluttershy?"

"Yes?" She said

"Mind if we talk later?" I asked

"Of course! I should probably be getting back anyways." She said, hauling the bag of food down the street. "See you later"

I walked up to Spike, "Hey Spike, where's Twilight?" I asked

"Oh uh... She's at her house. She sent me to get a very special order. It's for one of Pinkie's 'many' parties... I think." He said with a groan.

"Heh" I laughed. "Being Twilight's errand boy is always exciting isn't it?"

"I am about to explode with anticipation..." He yawned. "I think I'm going to take a nap...Could you tell Mrs. Cake to wake me when the order is ready?"

"Sure." I said, walking into the bakery. As soon as I walked in, I noticed only a few people here and there. Some sitting waiting for an order, others eating and talking. I spotted Mrs. Cake in the back, putting things into one oven, and taking things out of another. I walked to the back, greeting her as she zipped around the kitchen like a bumble bee.

"Hey Mrs. Cake. How's it going?" I asked, barely keeping track of her.

"Oh! Hey Rainbow Dash, what brings you here?" She said giving me a quick glance, then continuing to work.

"Uhh.. I could come back later?" I said

"No no, just finishing up." She said, throwing the last batch of muffins in the oven, then breathing a sigh of relief. "Okay, all done. Now what was it you needed?" She asked, giving all her attention to me.

"Spike said to wake him up when his order is ready? He's lying down outside." I said.

"Oh..." She said, starting to giggle.

"What's so funny?" I said curiously.

"Oh nothing dear... Just um.." She said, beginning to blush.

"Come on you can tell me, spit it out!" I said, getting impatient.

"Well... There is no order." She said, refusing to make eye contact.

"You mean you haven't made it yet?" I said raising an eyebrow.

"No... Not quite." She said.

"Well I could help if you want!" I said, "With my help it'll be ready in a jiff!"

"No its not that... There really is no order." She said

"What do you mean?" I asked, squinting.

"Well you see... Twilight and me have a thing going..." She said, scratching her neck, still refusing to make eye contact.

"Go on..." I said, now having my full attention.

"Um... This is really private, I don't know if I should be talking about it." She said, turning around.

"Well if you won't tell me I'll just go ask Twilight an-" I said before being interrupted.

"No! Okay I'll tell you, just please don't mention this to Twilight okay?" She said defensively.

"You have my word." I said, making a zipping motion on my lips.

"When Twilight sends Spike down for a 'Special Order', it's to get Spike out of the house when she has 'Guest's over." Mrs. Cake said, blushing redder than ever.

"Guests?" I asked, "Like who?"

She stood there silently, not saying another word. Guests? Who could Twilight have over that she can't talk to with Spi- Oh....Ohhhhhh..........................................Oh..

"Oh..." I said, beginning to turn red myself.

"Yeah..." She said. There was a minute of awkward silence. It finally ended with a DING!

"Oh! Cookies are done. It's good to see you Rainbow Dash but I should really be getting back to work." She said, rushing to one of the many ovens lined up against the wall.

"Of course!" I said quickly, doing a 180 and marching toward the door. I opened the door, hearing the clinking of the bell attached to the top of it, notifying when someone leaves and enters. I stepped out and let the door close behind me. I looked over at Spike, who was startled by the sudden ringing of the bell stuck to the door.

"Oh! Is it ready?" He asked, stretching and standing up.

"NO!" I yelled, causing him to fall back flat on his ass. He sat there, staring up at me surprised. "I mean uh... No it'll be another half ho- I mean hour... Two hours!" I followed up quickly.

"Two hours?! For a cake??" He said confused and irritated.

"Yeah uh... It's a very large cake you know? And after it cools it needs to be frosted... You know, the stuff?" I said, changing back to a calm tone.

"Ugh... Fine. Least I can get some sleep in." He said, lying back down next to the door.

"Um... You know you can sleep inside at one of the tables?" I said, looking back into the shop. I looked down at him, noticing he was already asleep...

"Alright then..." I muttered to myself. Well maybe I can talk to Twilight a little later, when she doesn't have "Guests" I giggled to myself. I extended my wings and started hovering up. I looked back at my wing, stretching it and flexing. "No pain... Maybe I just pulled a muscle? Yeah that's it!" I thought to myself. I turned around, only to be knocked over by a tall man in a black and blue outfit.

"Hey! Watch it!" I said angrily, picking myself up.

"Sorry!" He said, picking up a bunch of scattered envelopes he had dropped. "I'm just in a hurry is all. I have to get these letters delivered or I could lose my job."

"It's fine.. Just watch where your going alright?" I said. He nodded and sprinted off past me. I shook my head, then soared into the air toward home. About 10 minutes later I arrived at the door step, opening the door and walking in.

"Hey Red! I'm home." I yelled down the hall.

"Yeah I'm in here." He yelled back, coming from the bedroom. Getting closer to the bedroom I continued to yell, lowing my voice the closer I got to the room.

"Have you gotten the mail recently? I've been waiting for a reply from the Princess." I said, walking into the room. I saw him sitting at the table, reading a note, a torn envelope on the table.

"Yeah..." He said, sounding a bit worried.

"What's wrong? Is that one from Celestia? Listen, if it say's anything about the letter's I've been sending her...I can explain." I said. He looked up at me, taking his eyes away from the letter for the first time.

"Maybe you should sit down for this one..." He said.

10 MINUTES EARLIER: Red's POV.

"Have a good day!" The man in the delivery outfit said before turning around and heading back down the road.

"You too!" I yelled. I took the bag of mail back to the bedroom. I sat down on the bed and tore open a few envelopes. The first envelope was from... Princess Celestia! This must be important...

Dear Rainbow Dash,

I am glad you have been feeling better
and wish you congratulations
on the baby coming. I hope to
see you soon. Also, I have loved the letters
you have been sending me. They have been
rather....Titillating. I hope to learn more about
Red. Maybe we could get together sometime and
have a little...Fun.

From, Celestia.

Titillating? Fun? I wonder what that could mean... Oh well. I set the paper down and reached in for another letter. I opened it and started reading.

Dear Rainbow Dash.

There has been some grim news that has arisen. I will tell you

more about the problem when you arrive. It's about the surgery and

some information that has come up from past subjects who have

undergone this procedure.

We recommend you come in to the hospital as soon as possible.

From, Doctor Cross.

As soon as I finished reading, I heard the front door open.

"Hey Red! I'm home!"

ONE HOUR LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

"What do you think it is?" I asked nervously.

"No idea." Red said, holding my hand. "It's probably nothing..."

I could hear the uncertainty in his voice, which only made me more afraid of what this "Grim" news might be... A couple minutes later the door opened and the nurse peeked out,

"Rainbow Dash? The doctor will see you now." She announced to the lobby. I stood up and walked down the hall, being lead by the nurse, never letting go of Red's hand.

"The doctor will be with you shortly." She said, motioning to one of the rooms. We went in and sat down, waiting anxiously for the reason we were called here. The door clicked open and Cross walked in.

"I'm glad you came." He said in a depressed tone.

"What's wrong?" I asked, surprised by his current state. Messy hair, baggy and red eyes.

"We have received some...Bad news from Canterlot." He said, taking his glasses off and setting them on the table.

"What is it?" Red asked, pulling me closer.

"Well.. It's about the surgery done on your wings." He said, taking a seat.

"Yeah? What about it?" I asked

"When you had your surgery, it had just recently been out of the 'Experimental' stage." He said

"What does that mean?" I asked confused.

"Well.. The results sent in to Canterlot from the subjects who went through the trial surgery were only the short term results." He said, still in his depressive state.

"What...I don't understand?" Red said for me.

"We thought it was a successful procedure, Until today..." He said, rubbing his forehead with the palm of his hand. "The short term results were promising.. Until about a month after the surgery."

"What....happens after a month?" I asked, fear growing in my voice.

"The nerves around the Thoracic Vertebrae, the area that we did the surgery on, where your wings meet your spine?" He said, looking me in the eyes for the first time, "Begin to deteriorate..."

"So what your saying... Is that her wings are going to return to what they were before the surgery?" Red asked.

The doctor's eyes began to glimmer, as if he was about to cry.

"It's a little more complicated than that." He said.

"Complicated how? What happened to the other patients?" Red asked. The doctor looked away, giving a long pause, before finally answering his question.

"They're dead."

Two Weeks to Live

TWO DAYS LATER: Rainbow Dash POV

"Maybe you'll be one of the patients that get lucky?" Red said, being the first to break the long silence. I looked at him, hopelessness in my eyes.

"Red..." I said

"Come on Dash your a fighter! Nothing bad is going to happen okay?" He interrupted. I sat there on the bench with him, staring straight ahead. There was a long pause that lasted minutes, before I spoke up.

"The pain in my wing is back..."

Red looked at my wing, then back to me.

"It's probably just sore.. You have been flying a lot lately, you should take it easy." He said hesitantly.

"Red.. It's in both wings this time.." I muttered, making eye contact for the first time since we sat down.

"You just have to take a break is all! Give your wings a little rest you know? It'll be okay." He said.

"NO IT WON'T!" I screamed, jumping to my feet.

"Dash calm do-" He said before getting interrupted.

"Just shut up!" I yelled. "Stop being so.." I hit him in the chest, "GOD!" I hit him again, "DAMN!" I hit him again.. "OPTIMISTIC!" I tried to hit him again, but he grabbed my hand and stood up.

"Let me go!" I yelled, struggling to get out of his grip. He stood there, looking at me. "Let me... Let me...." I started to say, losing the will to speak. I burst in to tears, falling into him. His grip changed from my arms to my whole body, as he embraced me. We stood there, his arms locked around me as I wept into his shirt.

"I'm so sorry Red..." I said, muffled by his clothes.

"We'll get through this together." He said, lifting my chin up. His eyes were so beautiful.. More now than ever. He didn't look sad or scared, just a smile on his face.

"No tears now." He said, wiping them from my face. "So long as I am here, I won't let anything happen to you."

I stared up at him, getting closer and closer. My lips were drawn to his like a moth to a flame. I kissed him as my arms grew tighter around him, tears beginning to flow stronger than before. Our lips grew apart, as I stared up to him.

"Never give up hope... Never." He said as I rested my head on his chest again.

FIVE DAYS LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

I was sitting at the bench in the park, thinking about everything that has happened. I looked down, putting a hand to my stomach. I'm pregnant, but I may never get to know what it's like to be a mother, and it's all my fault. My wings are my life, but I shouldn't have made such a brash decision with not just MY life on the line. If only I could go and take everything back. I would be happy living my life with Red. I could have accepted living without wings, but I wasn't thinking... I just wasn't thinking. It's been a week since Dr.Cross told me about the other patients. About a month after the surgery is when he said the patients died. Implying there is no difference between me and them, I should have about a week... The pain in my wings is getting worse, so I have stopped trying to move them entirely. But even then, I still get spasms... And even at random times I can feel a sting through my back. With a smile, I got up and started walking from the park to Twilight's house. It took a little longer than normal. For some reason, my legs just started getting sore, like I had been walking for miles. I finally got to her door and knocked. A few seconds later it opened, and I was greeted by Spike.

"Hey Rainbow Dash!" He said with a smile.

"Hey Spike, Is Twilight home?" I asked.

"Yeah I'll go get her, come in!" He said in happy tone. I walked to the couch and sat down, watching spike as he ran up stairs. A few seconds later I heard a muffled conversation start through the ceiling. After it ended I heard laughter, followed by loud footsteps. Twilight started hopping down the stairs, Spike clinging to her back, arms around her neck to hold on. They were both smiling and laughing as she carried him down the flight. She ran to the couch I was sitting on and flipped Spike's small body over her shoulder, slamming him onto the couch. I watched him bounce up as his momentum started to slow. He was giggling like a little kid. Spike might be a dragon, but he is pretty small, standing at only about 4 feet off the ground. After the laughter subsided, Twilight sat down, next to me, spike climbing into her lap.

"What's up?" Twilight asked.

"Nothing much, just wanted to stop by and say hello." I replied, looking down at spike, who let out the occasional giggle from the wrestling match they just had.

"How's Red been doing?" She asked, putting spike into a head lock.

"Pretty good. Why do you ask?" I said.

"Just curious is all. How have those books been?" She said, tilting her head.

"Books?" I asked quizzically.

"Yeah, Red stopped by the other day and picked up a quarter of my library... I hope you two are taking good care of them.." She said with a half worried expression, before bursting out into laughter as Spike began to tickle her sides. With that, he was released from the head lock.

"Spike stop!" She managed to get out, barely able to speak as she clenched her sides, attempting to grab him. He moved behind her, out of her reach and continued to mess around with her ticklish sides and abdomen. I couldn't help but smile. A devilish grin swept across my face as reached over and pulled Twilight to the ground, lying atop her.

"Dash what.." She said, still recuperating from Spikes torture. I held her arms down with my hands, and her legs with my legs. I looked back at Spike, who was just as surprised as Twilight. I motioned him over, as he realized what I was doing. His look of shock turned to the same evil grin I had.

"Dash get off m-" She stopped as she began to twitch. Spike had began to stroke the bottom of her feet softly. Twilight struggled to get free, but to no avail. She started laughing uncontrollably.

"NOT THE FEET PLEASE SPIKE!" She screamed before falling back into a haze of laughter. With her arms safely restrained by my hands, I moved them a little further up her arms. My thumbs began to rub her arm pits, her eyes went wide as her laughter escalated two fold, now beginning to tear up.

"DASH STOP PLEASE!" She yelled, "YOU DONT UNDERSTAND STOP.. I CAN'T!"

Her horn began to glow. I raised an eyebrow as she arched her back, thrusting her hips up, pressing her crotch against mine. I looked down and realized...Her clothes below the belt were soaked. Her eyes rolled back as she let out a scream. Spike immediately stopped and I jumped off her, surprised at what was happening. He laid there, back arched, toes curled, and twitching. I blushed as I realized she was having an orgasm, and a powerful one at that...

"Twilight! Are you okay?!" Spike asked in a worried tone. I shot my eyes to spike,

"Spike, up stairs, now!" I demanded.

"But Twilight.." He stuttered.

"NOW!" I screamed, causing him to jump back and bolt for the stairs. As soon as he disappeared into Twilight's room, I looked back down at her. She was fast asleep.

5 MINUTES LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

"What...Happened?" Twilight said, opening her eyes. She looked around the room, noticing she was lying down on the couch, seeing me in a chair that I had moved to the couch, facing her. Her face lit up bright red as she remembered what happened.

"Did i.." She muttered.

"Yep." I said, smiling. She refused to make eye contact with me, now sitting up.

"Stop looking at me like that.." She said. All I could do was smirk.

"I told you to stop tickling me..." She said, looking up at the large smirk and squinted eyes. She turned away, growing a brighter shade of crimson.

"Shut up..." She said quickly.

I moved to the couch, now sitting beside her instead of infront of her. She refused to look me in the eyes, which only delighted me. I leaned in close to her ear and whispered,

"You know.. You sure made an awful mess." She looked at the spot she was lying at before, noticing the soaked floor. She looked down at herself, seeing her clothes were still wet below the belt. Her face turned brighter as her embarrassment grew. She turned to me,

"Dash please don't tell anyone! This is really embarrassing and I know I should have spoken up before but It felt so good and I tried to warn you and.." She said, before being interrupted by our lips meeting. The sudden osculation of our soft tender skin meeting made her eyes widen as she stared at my closed eyes. Her surprise turned to a tranquil acceptance as her eyes drifted closed. The kiss lasted for what seemed like forever, our tongues fighting for dominance as it got passionate. Our faces strayed apart as we gasped for air, panting, a single strand of saliva stretching between us. It was then that I realized our positions had changed in the excitement. She was lying down and I was on top of her.

"We got to stop meeting like this.." I giggled, remembering earlier. I sunk down, about to kiss her again. She put her hands up and stopped me.

"Wait...This is wrong.." She said nervously.

"Come on Twilight, it's just two friends having a little fun..." I said, licking my lips.

"What about Spike... He.." She said as I put a finger to hush her.

"I sent him to Mrs. Cake for a very special order..." I said, a grin returning to my face. Her eyes widened in astonishment.

"How did you kn-" She tried to say, before being silenced with a kiss. Our lips parted and I stared into her eyes.

"You talk too much." I said. "Let's get you out of those dirty clothes.."

ONE HOUR LATER: CAKE SHOP. Spike's POV

"That's it!" I yelled. "I'm going home." I got up and walked towards the door, before being stopped by Mrs. Cake.

"W- Wait Spike! It's almost done really.." She said hesitantly

"That's what you said 30 minutes ago. I'm tired and I'm going home. Just have it delivered when it's done okay?" I said before walking outside and heading down the road.

"You can have a free cupcake!" I heard her yell, but continued walking. This is the last time I get talked in to waiting for this stupid cake! When I get back there I'm going to sleep. A little weird how Rainbow Dash sent me for a cake after Twilight passed out. I should have stayed.. I hope she'll be awake when I get there. I hope she's okay..

TEN MINUTES EARLIER: Rainbow Dash's POV

I moaned as her tongue flowed like silk across the smooth lips of my pussy. I dug my mouth into her soaked snatch, enticing a cry of pleasure. She placed her hands around my waist and pulled me down closer, her tongue sliding deeper inside me. The ecstasy of pleasure radiating through both of us send chills through me as our saliva mixed with the many juices flowing from our love canals. I gasped as I felt something penetrate me. I looked down and saw her pushing two fingers inside, rubbing sensually up and down my labia. With the same thing in mind, I slid my finger into her as well. We both sat there, lost in euphoria. I felt her clamp down, trapping my fingers inside. She yelled out, her scream muffled by my velvet pussy. Her shriek of rapture pushing me over the edge from the sheer vibration of her voice. We both went limp, lying there in a 69 position. After a minute I got up and laid down beside her. We turned our heads, looking at each other. A smile on both our faces, causing us to start giggling.

"We should do this more often.." I said, my heart rate beginning to slow down.

"Absolutely." She responded

"What was that thing you did earlier with your horn?" I asked curiously.

"Something I learned in a book.." She said coyly.

"You should get me a copy.. That was fucking AWESOME!" I yelled. She giggled.

"Maybe we should get dressed?" She said, motioning for their clothes.

"Yeah your right. Spike should be home any second now." I said, jumping up and grabbing our clothes. After we got dressed, we sat back down on the bed, sitting in front of the other.

"Hey Twilight, Speaking of books..." I asked.

"Yeah?" She said

"What did Red get specifically from your Library?" I asked curiously.

"Mostly books about our Anatomy. Thinks about nerves, the skeletal structure. Medical texts and such.." She said, her smile turning to a frown. We both knew at that moment why he asked for them. Our heads turned away from each. After a minute of silence, we looked back. I noticed tears starting to gather in her eyes. Everyone had heard the news the doctor told me. As hard as it was, I had accepted that I might not live for very long, wanting to forget about everything. I told my friends I didn't want to talk about it, and that if I didn't think about it. It wouldn't be so bad... But it was inevitable. I knew the subject would come up eventually.

"Does Spike know?" I asked, breaking the silence.

"No.. I haven't told him yet." She said hollowly.

"Are you going to?" I asked, feeling as though I was going to start crying as well.

"And tell him what!" She yelled, tears finally streaming down her face. "That you're going to die next week?"

"Twilight I.." I said, the first of many tears seeping down my face.

"How could I! He's so sweet.. Innocent. I can't... I just can't tell him." She hollered.

"Well he's going to find out eventually!" I said, raising my voice.

"Rainbow Dash wait.." She said quickly.

"No Twilight, Don't you get it? I have an expiration date now. I'm up all night, wondering when it's going to happen. I cry myself to sleep!" I screamed.

"Dash stop!" She said with an alert expression.

"Just accept that next week, I might not be alive anymore!" I shrieked. Then everything grew silent. I noticed the look on her face of genuine shock. But she wasn't looking at me... I turned around, Spike was peeking into the room, tears staining his face. He burst from the doorway and down the stairs.

"Spike!" I yelled. I jumped up and ran after him. I ran to the front door and swung it open. He was gone.. In the hurry I was in, I hadn't noticed Twilight didn't follow me. I listened, and heard her sobbing upstairs in her room. My head was spinning. I wanted to fall over and cry, but I knew there were more important things to do right now. I had to find Spike.

THREE HOUR LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

After asking around the town, going from person to person, I think I know where Spike may be. I headed down to the Cake shop. I opened the door, hearing the bell clink against it. I looked around, and sure enough, Spike was sitting in the far back corner, in one of the booths. As I got closer, I noticed Mr. and Mrs. Cake sitting with him. She caressed his head on her shoulder as he cried. I approached them, noticing that they had been crying too, but had run out of tears awhile ago. Spike however, didn't seem even close to done. Mr. and Mrs. Cake looked at me. We nodded to each other, and they got up and left. I sat down next to Spike, taking a seat beside him. He looked up at me, sniffling.

"Why is this happening..." He said with much sadness in his voice.

"I don't know Spike.. I really don't." I said, putting a hand on his shoulder. He smacked my hand away

"Stop it! Just stop trying to comfort me!" He sobbed.

"Spike..." I said

"No! It's not fair! You didn't do anything wrong. Why is this happening to you, WHY!" He yelled

"I know Spike... I'm scared.." I said with sympathy in my voice. "I know more than anyone Spike. But I know grieving about it isn't going to help."

He looked up at me, his expression growing sadder. "I'm... I'm sorry" He said, suddenly clinging to me. I hugged him, holding him close.

"I know Spike..." I said, wiping tears away from my face. "But there's someone that needs you right now. And she's waiting for you at home."

He looked up at me, sniffling, and nodded.

FIFTEEN MINUTES LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

"Go on Spike, Twilight needs you more than ever." I said, gesturing to the door. He turned the handle and opened the door. He turned around, ran and hugged me, before going back inside. I closed the door and started to walk back home. After a minute or so I stopped and turned around, looking up to the second floor window of Twilight's house. I saw Spike in Twilight's lap, both of them crying in each others arms. I continued walking until I got home. I opened the door and noticed a trail of papers leading to the basement. I walked to the door and opened it. I headed down the stairs, hearing the bubbling of beakers and test tubes. When I got to the bottom, I noticed the place was a mess. There were books scattered everywhere, papers on the floor, random books opened to pages about the nervous system. I saw Red mixing chemicals together. He looked tired and frustrated. In a fit of rage he swept his arm across the table, knocking all the beakers and equipment off, shattering most of the glass made bottles. He put his head in his and began to sob. I approached him and put a hand on his shoulder. He looked up at me, bags under his bloodshot eyes. I hugged him, squeezing him tightly.

"I'm so sorry Dash..." He cried, tears rapidly sliding down his face. "I said I would protect you... But I don't know what to do."

"It's okay Red." I said

"No its not..." He said in a hopeless voice. "I have tried everything, read every book, and done every spell. I can't find anything. If only I had the answers to take it all away..."

I held him close, my tears pouring down into his hair, as his sobbing grew louder. I have never seen him like this before... He has gone through all these books, all this work.. For me?

"I love you so much Dash... Please don't leave me." He said, another round of tears riding down his face.

"I'm so scared Red!" I said, now sitting in his lap, head nuzzling his neck. Our tears stopped immediately when we heard a knock at the door. I looked at him, wiping my tears away. We both got up and walked upstairs. Hand held, we opened the door, and who was there shocked me.

"Princess Celestia?!" I said, nearly falling back.

"Hello Rainbow Dash." She said with a smile. "May I come in?"

"Of course! Take a seat on the couch" I said, motioning to it.

"I'll make some Tea, stay right there." Red said before bolting into the kitchen.

"There is no need for.." Celestia tried to say, but stopped after he disappeared from sight into the kitchen.

"What brings you here Princess?" I asked curiously.

"Well.." She said, "I heard about what happened... And what is going to happen."

My surprised faded and the sadness from earlier returned.

"So you came to grieve for me..." I said in a depressed tone.

"On the contrary." She said in a serious tone. "I came to tell you that I could care less."

I froze. What did she say? I...

"I don't... Did I do something wrong?" I said, confused.

"No Rainbow Dash. In fact, you haven't done anything. Which is why I came." She said.

"I... I don't understand?" I said, looking up at her.

"You shouldn't be sitting here waiting for it to come. You should be out having fun." She said with a smile.

"But... How can I have fun knowing I only have a week at minimum to live. I don't want to die.." I said

"I don't either. But neither do all who live through such times of fear. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." She said, never losing eye contact.

I thought about it for a second and said, "So... What your saying is.."

"Have fun." She said, "You know, a great man once said, 'The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time'."

She put a hand on my cheek and said, "So go live."

I thought about it for a minute. My frown turned into a smile, and I looked at her with a fire in my eyes.

"Thank you so much." I said, hugging her. She hugged me back, her body radiating with the heat of the sun.

"Now, I have something for you." She said, reaching into a pouch on her side. She pulled out a folded piece of paper and handed it to me. I grabbed it and unfolded it.

"What is it?" I asked,

"Read it" She said

"Dear Rainbow Dash, You, Red, and your friends are hereby invited to the Summer Sun Festival. I hope to see you there. This year's festival will be taking place in Canterlot. It would please me greatly to have you and your friends by my side when I lift the sun into the sky. Yours truly, Princess Celestia." I paused, looking confused.

"But Princess.. The festival isn't until next month?" I said

"Not anymore. Due to special circumstances, it has been changed to tomorrow." She said, giving me a wink. I smiled and jumped off the couch, hopping around the room in excitement.

"Oh my gosh! This is awesome!" I said, unable to contain my joy.

"You stay here and take it all in. I'm going to have a chat with Red if you don't mind." She said, moving toward the kitchen.

Red's POV:

I stood there over the stove, waiting for the kettle to boil. Tears beginning to drip from my eyes.

"Hello Red." I heard a voice say. I turned my head to see it was the Princess. I quickly wiped my tears on my sleeve.

"Sorry Princess. This kettle is just taking forever..." I said, hiding my face.

"Really?" She said, suddenly standing only a foot away from me, looking over my shoulder. "Well you know what helps with that?" She said, putting a hand on my shoulder. I turn to her,

"What?" I asked.

"Turning the stove on." She said, giggling. I looked at the stove and facepalmed.

"I'm sorry Princess... I just.." I said, flustered.

"Let me help with that." She said, picking up the cold tea kettle and dumping it all on my head. I stood there speechless and confused. She put her hand to her mouth and giggled.

"I suppose I deserved that?" I asked, shivering.

"Perhaps." She said, setting the kettle down. "If you did, then I guess I shouldn't feel bad. Should I feel bad?"

There was a short pause before I finally said, "No... You shouldn't feel bad."

"Oh? And why is that?" She asked, looking me in the eyes.

"I have been trying to find something to save Rainbow Dash, but no matter where I look I can't find an answer!" I said, sorrow filling my voice.

"We hear only those questions for which we are in a position to answer them. But the truth is, sometimes there aren't any answers. And we have to learn to live with that." She said.

"But it's not fair! She didn't deserve any of this.." I shouted at her.

"Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you’re a good person is like expecting a bull not to attack you because you’re a vegetarian." She said, keeping her calm tone. "Believe me, I know more than anyone that this world is unfair. People die, accidents happen. Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect."

"What do you mean?" I asked

"Love is how you stay alive, even after you are gone." She said.

I stopped and thought for a minute. "I know... I know Princess. I just..."

She pushed my chin up to face her and said, "In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on."

A tear slid down my face as I stared up at her.

"Never forget those words." She said in a kind and loving tone. "And she will never truly be gone."

I smiled, having the hope I had lost earlier, return to me. The Princess got up and began walking toward the other room.

"Don't keep us waiting, Rainbow Dash has something to tell you." She said.

"Oh! But what about the tea?" I asked curiously.

"I hate tea." She said casually, leaving the kitchen. I stood there, processing everything that just happened, and started to laugh. I turned around and headed back to the living room, only to be tackled by Dash at the doorway. I slammed into the ground as she sat on top of me.

"Princess Celestia changed the Summer Sun Festival from next month to tomorrow! Let's go together and mess around. Live a little! A day with you, me, and our friend and...Why are you wet?" She said, looking at my soaked clothes.

"Long story." I said with a chuckle, looking over at Celestia, who was just about to walk out the door.

"I'll see you two tomorrow." She said, giving me a wink. I looked back at Rainbow Dash, who was still lying on top of me.

"Hey Red..." Dash said.

"Yeah?" I replied.

"We're all alone now..." She said, giving me a fiendish smirk. Her eyes widened in surprise as she felt something poke her. She looked down,

"Great minds think alike!" She said before jumping to her feet and down the hall. "Don't keep me waiting." She shouted from the bedroom. Boy what a day this has been... Celestia is right, You can't stop the future, you can't rewind the past, the only way to live

...is to press play.

A Little Fun

SUMMER SUN FESTIVAL: Red's POV

"Shit!" I yelled, making a splash as I fell in to the icy water.

"Gotcha!" Rainbow Dash cheered, throwing both arms in the air. I stood up, shivering.

"W-why d-did I have t-to be the one to volunteer f-fo-for the dunk tank..." I said, climbing out of the water.

She laughed, holding her sides, and said "Because the 'Village Idiot' look suits you!"

I gave a sarcastic laugh though the chills of the water soaked clothes.

"Okay you had your fun. How bout we do s-something we both enjoy?" I asked, heading to the changing room with Rainbow Dash.

"Alright alright." She said, giving me a playful shove. I went in to the changing room and switched to a dryer set of clothes. I walked out to find Rainbow Dash missing.

"Dash?" I shouted out. I looked around, seeing if maybe she was at one of the many stalls. I couldn't make her out in the large crowds of people walking around the fair. After taking a few steps forward, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and...

"D..Dashy?" I said, eyes widening. Rainbow Dash was standing behind me in a bikini.

"Like what you see?" She said, swaying her body back and forth, my eyes following her hips like a dog to a bone. Speaking of bones...

Rainbow dash giggled, staring down at my crotch. "Good to know I will always have control over you." She said.

I looked down, seeing my member growing. Of course she does this in 'Public'... While I'm wearing shorts. I spun around and dove back into the changing room. I tried to shut the door, but half way it was suddenly stopped. Dash peeked into the room, staring at me.

"Peekaboo!" She said, smiling.

"I'm not leaving until this goes down, I hope you know that." I said, sitting down at the changing table.

"I know." She said before entering the room and closing the door. She got down on her knees and began to unzip my shorts.

"What are you.." I started to say.

"It's going to be awhile before it goes down, so I figure might as well speed it up." She said, "Besides, we wouldn't want you ripping through your only clean change of clothes would you? I'm just having a little fun!"

Nervous and uncomfortable doing this in such a public place, I tried to push her away, but I knew she wasn't leaving until she had her way. Accepting defeat, I leaned back and let her service me.

"Mmm.. Smells delicious." She said, wrapping her arms around it, nuzzling it with her cheek. I groaned from the sudden touch of skin squeezing my hardened cock into a tight hug.

"You're en- enjoying this too MUCH." I yelped as she began licking it slowly from the bottom up. She then stuck the tip in her mouth, enticing a moan from me. I looked down at her as she slowly pushed it down her throat, massaging my length, her throat grinding against it. Each second brought spikes of pleasure, building up at the base of my shaft. But that wasn't the half of it. The thing that was turning me on the most was the fact she was staring at me, while deep-throating my entire cock. Her eyes staring up at me drove me crazy.

"If you keep loo- looking at me like that..." I said to her, feeling my abdomen clench. She immediately pulled off and started jerking it rapidly. I couldn't help but...help. I grabbed part of my dick and started to rub it alongside her. It began to pulse, and Dash felt it too. Then something bad happened... There were voices outside. My eyes snapped to the door.. We had forgotten to lock it. Rainbow Dash jumps up and bolts for the lock. The sudden feeling of blue balls made me snap, I stood up and ran towards her.

"Phew.. That was close." Rainbow Dash said before being tackled from behind.

THIRD PERSON / Dash's POV:

"What the heck! Red what are you.." She said, looking back in horror at the position she was in, sitting on her hands and knees while Red ripped her bikini off.

"Red easy!" She said, trying to break free, but unable to escape his weight pushing her down. She felt his pulsating cock poke at her ass. Her eyes snapped back at him.

"Red wait.. Not there please!" She begged, knowing he was already lost in lust. He rammed as hard as he could, ignoring any resistance in the first push. Rainbow Dash groaned in pain as he relentlessly pounded her ass. Normally she wouldn't mind this kind of sex, but not so suddenly, and in a public place. She knows what happens when he finishes... And she couldn't do a thing to stop it.

"What's wrong Dash? I'M JUST HAVING A LITTLE FUN!" He shouted menacingly, starting to laugh in a tone I have never heard from him before.

"Red!" I whimpered helplessly, "Control.. Yourself."

My cries only made him pump faster, tearing up my insides as the pulled out, and smashed it back in. I couldn't let him finish inside, I had to do something. I turned my head back to look at him. He was staring up at the ceiling, tongue hanging out in bliss. I reached back and grabbed his cock to try to pull him out. He immediately grunted and stopped thrusting. At first I thought I had succeeded, only to realize his shaft was pulsating.

"I'm cumming!" He said, pushing his cock in deeper, until my hand was the only thing between my ass and his balls. I squirmed around, trying to free myself. He grabbed my arm and ripped it off, hilting himself into me. The sudden stillness removed the extreme pain I was feeling, and replaced it with pleasure that I hadn't noticed before, but since the pain was gone, It was all I was able to feel. I started twitching as a wave of electricity traveled through me. I immediately started feeling warmth flood through me. My panic overwhelming the pleasure, I tried to move forward, but was held in place by his hands, locking my hips to his swollen sack.

"P-Ple- please... Take it o-" I muttered, being interrupted by a gurgling coming from my stomach. Still on my hands and knees, I looked down to see my gut start to swell. I tried to talk, only to choke on something rising up my esophagus. I began to gag on the gallons of sperm flooding me. Up chucking a mouthful every time his cock pulsed, sending a fresh wave of his semen each time. After it finally started to die down, and I could speak again. With a sigh of relief that it was finally over, I attempted to get up, only to be weighed down by the new weight I just gained. I look nine months pregnant... Gathering the strength, I hauled myself forward. I was stopped suddenly by two hand grabbing my waist.

"Where do you think you're going?" Red said

"Red..." I said worried about what was going to happen.

"We still have two more holes to fill. I hope you're ready for round two!" He said. I felt him start to harden again, still inside me. He pulled out and pressed the tip against my aching cunt. Horror set in as I knew if he stuck it in, I wouldn't be able to resist anymore.

"Red please.. I'm sorry!" I shouted at him. I couldn't get up even if I wanted to. The cum gurgling in my stomach was holding me down. I was trapped, he was going to fuck me like a cheap fuck-toy, and all I could do was take it. The spike of warmth from his tip pushing against my vagina send sparks through me, causing me to gasp at not only it, but the warmth already churning around inside me. He slowly pushed it until it was inside. The feeling of being stretched sending an orgasm that has been sitting there since this began, through my body. I moaned loudly as he moved back and forth, his movement already quickened by the coating of his own semen currently being used as lubricant. His pace quickened, speeding up my pleasure as well. We both felt climax approaching, my eyes rolled back as I accepted the oncoming flood. I clamped down on him hard as his shaft expanded, signaling his orgasm. He unleashed another wave of fluids into me, causing my already drooling cunt to tighten around his member. It was holding onto him so tight that none of my own juices could escape, creating an endless orgasm. I gasped as the constant wave of pleasure rocked through me, never stopping. My abdomen started to grow larger, now looking as if I was holding a fully grown person inside me. His orgasm finally subsided, but mine did not.

"Come on Dashy, time for round 3." He said, sticking his hand down, stretching me wider to get himself free from the lips fastened around him. He got himself free, finally allowing my own fluids to flow out, doubling the orgasm that had been building up. Everything started to get fuzzy as I felt like passing out. I was snapped awake by a sudden hand grasping my chin. I looked up at Red, who was now standing in front of me.

"Open wide." He said, jamming the tip into my mouth before I had a chance to react. He slowly inched his way to the back of my throat, pushing his entire length inside until I could feel his expanding scrotum press against my chin. I gagged at the sudden invasion of my esophagus. His third orgasm seemed to come quicker than the others as I felt him grunt as his penis pulsed. He pulled back far enough so his entire load wouldn't be deposited straight into my stomach, his tip now resting on my tongue. I pressed my hands against his hips, trying to push him off in a feudal attempt to avoid another stuffing.

"Here it comes!" He said, releasing a third wave into my mouth. The amount that came out the third time rivaled the last two. My cheeks exploded out word as his batter filled my mouth. A second shot came out, ejecting a torrent of it outward, soaking his cock with it. I felt it pulse again as a third shot came out, but before it was released, he pushed it slightly deeper, forcing me to swallow. I could only gulp down half of it, the rest began to seep from my nose. Each shot after either exploding out my nose, or being shoved into my already bloated stomach.

Red's POV:

Man I feel sore... What happened? I looked down, seeing my cock stuffed down Rainbow Dash's throat. She was bloated beyond proportion. In shock I pulled out, hearing a gasp of air enter her lungs.

"Dash! You okay?" I asked worried. Oh... Now I remember. I remember everything. I completely lost it...

"Ugh...." She grunted.

"What is it Dash?" I said, kneeling down to her level. She grabbed me and yanked my face to her own.

"I love you so much." She said, locking her lips to mine. Shocked by the sudden kiss, and the taste of my own sperm in my mouth, I closed my eyes and was lost in the moment.

ONE HOUR LATER: Red's POV

"You sure you're okay?" I asked, watching as she squeezed the last of the oozing juices out of her. She looked back to her old self.

"Yep." She said,

"I'm really sorry.. I don't know what happened, I just sort of... lost control when you stopped." I said, scratching my head. I looked up in time for her to slam me against the wall. I cringed as I hit the wall, surprised by the sudden attack.

"Dash wait... I'm sorry I didn't.." I started

"Fuck me." She said, grabbing my softened cock. My confusion returned, having expected to be pumbled to pieces.

"W...what?" I said

"You are so hot when your like that. Dominate me again!" She said, beginning to pant.

"Dash I... It was just a one time thing.. I don't know why I.." I tried to say, beginning to get worried.

"Well I'm going to fuck the dominance back into you. No matter how long it takes." She said, squeezing my now hardening cock between her ass cheeks. I gulped, now beginning to get scared. She leaned in close and whispered into my ear,

"Time for round 4."

Author's Note

Sorry for the wait. I just thought you would enjoy a break from the drama and have a nice little clop. I hope this keeps you satisfied till the next chapter, which is going to be a heart warming one. Oh and Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you like stuffing!

The Perfect Day

THE BEACH: ONE HOUR BEFORE SUMMER SUN FESTIVAL.

"I don't know." I said, looking out at sea.

"You don't know what?" Red asked, holding his arms around me as I leaned back against his shirtless body, who in turn was sitting up against a large rock that was poking out of the sand.

"How long I have left." I continued.

"Dash.." He said, a small tinge of worry in his voice.

"I know I know..." I said, "I shouldn't be focusing on it. I just can't stop thinking about it. Sure I might get my mind off it for awhile, but it always comes back to me. How's it going to happen? Are my organs going to shut down? Maybe my brain will explode?!"

"Rainbow Dash!" He said, snapping me out of my rant. "Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow isn't here yet. We have only today."

I leaned my head back, looking up at him as he stroked my hair.

"I just never want this moment to end... " I said, trying to hold back a tear, to no avail.

"I don't want to lose you. Life without you is like a broken pencil, pointless." Red replied. It wasn't until he said that, that I realized he was shaking. I looked up at him to see a smile, along with tears sliding down his face. He gripped me tighter, as if I was about to slip away.

"How can you lose me?" I said, "You’ve had me from the first moment I saw you."

He buried his face in my hair, holding me close. We sat there in each other's arms, never wanting to move from this spot. This perfect spot, on this perfect day.

THREE HOURS LATER: Rainbow Dash's POV

"BULLSEYE!" I yelled, hitting the target on the mark.

"Congratulations! You win again. Pick an animal off the shelf." He said, pointing to the assortment of stuffed animals lining the shelves.

"Hmm.." I said, placing a hand on my chin, "How about you pick this one Red?"

"Mmhmfm." I heard a muffled voice say. I turned around and looked at Red, who was holding about 8 different toys / stuffed bears and rabbits, piled up to his face.

"What was that?" I asked, taking the one covering his face.

"I said, shouldn't I be the one winning these for 'you'?" He said

"Well that would be nice, if you hadn't lost the last 3 in a row." I said with a giggle.

"Shenanigans I say!" He said aloud, before I stuffed the animal back in place.

"I'll carry this one. Come on let's go back to the ring toss, they have the biggest rewards there." I said rushing down the sea of people. I heard a loud sigh of defeat from Red as he ran, trying to keep up. I stopped when I saw a familiar face.

"Fluttershy!" I said, causing her to glimpse over to me and smile.

"Rainbow Dash!" She said happily, making her way over to me.

"How's it going?" I asked.

"Good.. I'm just trying to find angel, have you seen him?" She asked.

"Uhhh... No sorry." I said. It was then that I realized Red was still running to catch up.

"Red watch out!" I said too late, as he collided head on with Fluttershy. I'm surprised he made it this far with the mountain of toys he was carrying obstructing his vision. They both slammed into the ground, the stuffed animals scattering around. Fluttershy shook her head, recovering from the impact. She looked down at her lap and shrieked, seeing a decapitated rabbit's head sitting there.

"It's stuffed Fluttershy it's stuffed!" I said, snatching it off her. She stopped and looked at it, breathing a sigh of relief. It was then that I realized several people in the crowd stopping and staring at us.

"Fluttershy are you alright!" I heard someone say, turning to see Twilight quickly approaching, along with Rarity and Spike.

"Yeah.. I'm fine." Fluttershy said as we helped her to her feet.

"Hey guys, how's it going?" I asked, brushing dirt off of Fluttershy's clothes.

"Pretty good." Twilight said.

"Where's Applejack and Pinkie?" I asked, looking around.

"Applejack has her own stand, selling... Apple... related food." Rarity said.

"And Pinkie is helping with the entertainment. Rides, games.." Twilight said, "You know, Pinkie stuff."

I turned to Red, seeing his face distorted.

"Ah..." He started, holding a hand up, "AHHH CHOO!" He sneezed, a cloud of cotton stuffing from the stuffed animals shooting from his mouth. We all paused for a second, processing what just happened. Spike was the first to laugh, causing us all to join in as Red sniffled.

"So where are you guys headed?" I asked.

"Well me and Spike were headed to get a bite at Applejack's stand.?" Twilight said, Spike clinging to her back.

"Apple pie..." Spike said, drooling onto her shoulder. Twilight raised her hand and pushed his hanging jaw up, halting the flow of saliva.

"Yes well this is all very nice, But I should be getting back to my own stand." Rarity said.

"Really? you have your own stand? What could you possibly sell?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I will have you know, that I am selling the finest quality of earrings!" She said defensively.

"Uh huh.." I said.

"Just you watch. By the end of the festival my stand will be empty." She said, turning and walking away.

"Good luck with that!" I shouted to her.

"Well I'm going to go now." Twilight said, "If I hold Spikes mouth closed any longer I think he's going to explode."

We laughed and went our separate ways. Fluttershy went off to find angel, Rarity went to her...Earring stand..? And Twilight and Spike went to visit Applejack. I guess it's only sensible to see how Pinkie is doing. I walked for a bit, asking around for Pinkie, heading to the main stage area.

"What are you talking about!" I heard screaming behind the main stage as I approached. I peeked around the corner to see Pinkie arguing with Vinyl Scratch.

"The party cannon is better!" Pinkie said, aiming it at Vinyl.

"It's nothing compared to the Wub Cannon!" Vinyl said, aiming what looked like several speakers fused together, sitting in a large wheel-barrow looking thing. Immediately Pinkie started to load confetti into the cannon, as Vinyl started pressing buttons on hers.

"Power up the bass cannon!" Vinyl said, pulling her goggles down around her eyes, followed by turning a few knobs. A loud monotone buzzing was heard from the speakers known as the "Wub Cannon."

"PARTY CANNON FIRE!" Pinkie screamed, pulling a rope on the back of the big metal gun. A large explosion of glitter was seen as a solid stream of confetti was launched toward Vinyl.

"FIRE!" Vinyl shouted, pressing a button. A deafening dubstep beat started, nearly blowing Pinkie off her feet. The confetti's trajectory did an immediate 180, being shot back by the pure power of the beats. The stream hit Pinkie, sending her sailing back into the wall. The force of the bass holding her in place, pushing her cheeks back into a smile with every beat. Vinyl turned it off and I watched as Pinkie slid down the wall on to the ground, landing flat on her ass. Vinyl pulled her goggles up, a surprised expression on her face. They stood there staring at each other for a moment.

"You okay?" Vinyl said, finally breaking the silence.

"DO IT AGAIN!" Pinkie screamed, jumping to her feet. I shook my head and turned around, seeing Red staring with me.

"When did you get here?" I said.

"Few seconds ago. What's going on?" Red said, standing behind me.

"Watching Pinkie and Vinyl argue about wh.......Are you wearing earrings?" I asked, looking at the two glimmering gems hanging off his ears. I looked around at the stands, seeing Rarity looking at me from her stand, she gave me a smug smile, waving at me.

"Red... We are going to have a serious talk later."

ONE HOUR LATER: Red's POV

"I'm a little hungry." I said, "How bout we visit Applejack. Maybe Twilight and Spike are still there."

"Sure, I could use a bite too." Dash said as we continued walking through the crowd.

"Are you really going to stay in that bikini the entire festival?" I asked, looking at her ass as it swayed back and forth.

"Why? Afraid people will stare?" She said. I looked up to see her peeking back at me, knowing full well I was staring.

"Nope!" I said, shooting my eyes straight ahead, blushing bright red. I looked around the crowd, noticing there were more women that I realized in their bathing suits, as well as guys in nothing but shorts. Well.. The festival is taking place near the beach. I turned my head to see someone mopping. An angry expression on his face as he cleaned the changing room. He made eye contact with me, causing me to snap my eyes forward, my pace quickened. A few minutes later we arrived at Applejack's stand. Although a 'Courtyard' is more accurate. There were several tables full of people, eating things from Apple's to Apple dumplings, pies, cakes. I noticed Twilight sitting on the end of one of the empty tables, reading a book as she took a bite of a hotdog floating next to her, a purple aura around it.

"Hey Twilight!" I shouted as I jogged over, Dash following in turn. She glanced over with a smile, waving to us. We sat down next to her, noticing spike lying on his back on the table.

"What's wrong with him?" I asked, poking Spikes stomach.

"Heamht aloht omood." Twilight mumbled. I looked at her, seeing her mouth was full.

"Swallow..." Dash said. Twilight gulped what she was eating down.

"He ate a lot of food." She said with more clarity.

"So...Much... Pie." Spike groaned, turning over on his side.

"He was stuffing his face with everything in sight. I had to pay for it of course.." Twilight said, rolling her eyes.

"Speaking of stuffing people's faces.." I said, smirking at Rainbow Dash, who was sitting next to me. That was followed by a sharp pain that made me cringe, as I realized she hand her hands on my balls and was squeezing.

"What was that honey?" Rainbow Dash said, returning a smile.

"I JUST THINK WE SHOULD GET SOME FOOD WHILE THERES SOME LEFT." I said quickly, every joint in my body tensing up. She released her grip.

"Yes. Let's do that." She said, a victorious smirk on her face as I put my face on the table, holding my aching balls as the pain slowly died down.

"I'll go get us a few pieces. You stay here with Twilight. And sweetie.." She said, causing me to turn my head. She leaned down to my ear.

"Let's just keep what happened in the changing room between us okay?" She said, planting a kiss on my cheek and walking off towards Applejack.

"Gotcha.." I said, my voice cracking.

"What happened in the chang-" Twilight started,

"Don't... Just don't." I said, regaining my composure.

Rainbow Dash's POV:

I walked to the stand, watching as Applejack and Big Mac ran around cooking. It was actually amusing to watch Big Mac bake. Although what he was doing was not really considered 'Baking'. He was just running around in a sweat, trying hard to follow Applejacks instructions.

"Hey Applejack." I said. She turned, lighting up as she saw me.

"Well I'll be darned. What brings you to my stand Dash? Hungry?" She said, reaching back and pulling out a display tray.

"Yep, me and Red are pretty hungry. What do ya got?" I asked, looking at the tray. Applejack shivered, finally noticing the cold after stepping out of the hot outdoor kitchen.

"Brrr!" She said, "It's colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra in January!"

".....Sure let's go with that." I said slowly. I chose a few things and she gave me a bag full of food. I gave her the bits and she turned around.

"Dag nabbit!" She shouted, "That's too much darn flower!"

I slowly backed away as Applejack ran over to berate her older brother. I turned around and headed back to the table.

"Hey Red I got the foo-" I said before feeling a sudden stab of pain in my chest. I dropped the bag, falling to one knee. I grabbed my chest as it got hard to breathe.

"Dash!" I heard a shout from in front of me, seeing Red and Twilight sprinting towards me.

"Are you okay?" Twilight said, coming down to my level. I got up, my breath slowing.

"Yeah..." I said, the pain subsiding. "It just... Got hard to breathe for a second."

Red and Twilight shared a worried expression as they looked at each other.

"Maybe you should sit down?" Red said as he guided me to the table. This isn't the first time this has happened. I knew it was from the damage spreading. I never told anybody because I didn't want anyone to worry.

"What happened?" Red asked, holding my hands. I sighed, knowing I would have had to tell him eventually.

"I've been getting these pains... In my chest." I said

"What kind of pains?" Twilight said.

"Well.." I said, looking over at Spike. He was fast asleep. "You know what the doctor said. The nerves are degrading, and it's supposed to get worse. I've been having these bouts of.. pain."

"How bad is it?" Red asked cautiously.

"I... I don't want to talk about it." I said, pulling my hands away.

"Rainbow Dash..." Twilight said.

"There's nothing that can be done about it, you know that! So why worry about it?" I said, standing up.

"Come on, let's go on the Whip Lash again. They said they turned up the speed so the coaster should be 3x faster!" I said, walking in the direction of the roller coaster. I stopped and turned around when I realized they weren't following me. They were still sitting at the table, staring at me.

"What are you waiting for? Let's go before the line gets too long." I said, motioning them to follow.

"Dash.." Red said, a worried look on his face. "Can we just sit down and talk for awhile?"

"No, no more talking. Let's do something already!" I said impatiently, knowing full well he wasn't going to drop this. I turned around and started to walk away, only to be stopped by Red, who had grabbed my hand.

"Please.." Red said, looking me in the eyes as I turned my head back. I sighed, walking back to the table to sit.

"So.. When did it start?" Red asked.

"A few days ago.." I said

"How bad has it been?" He asked, rubbing my hands gently.

"The one early was the worst so far. They've become more... Frequent." I said, avoiding his sultry and caring gaze.

"Why have you been hiding this?" Red asked curiously.

"Why do you even care?" I said half heartedly.

"Rainbow Dash, let me tell you something." I said in a serious tone, holding her hands tighter.

"Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colors seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A morning conversation helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life." Red said, finishing his speech.

"Are you part of my life?" He asked, putting his hand on my chin and turning me to face him.

"Yeah.." I said weakly, a tear sliding down my face. He moved his hand up to my cheek, introducing a smile to my face. I stared into his eyes, and in his eyes I saw something more beautiful than the stars. We leaned in and our lips met, a moment that would last forever. My eyes wandered slightly over, seeing Twilight tearing up from his monologue.

"Yuck!" Spike said, startling us back to reality. "I go to sleep for a few minutes and this is what I wake up to?"

"Shouldn't you be shoving pie down your gullet?" Rainbow Dash said, poking his stomach, causing it to rumble loudly.

"Ohhh man.." Spike said, holding his stomach. "Where's the bathroom!" He said, diving off the table and sprinting off.

"Spike wait!" Twilight shouted. "I'll see you two later."

I watched as she ran off after him and disappearing around the corner. I turned back to Red, who had a happy look on his face.

"What are you smiling about doofus?" I said, punching him in the shoulder.

"It's just that.." He started.

"Yeah? What is it?" I asked.

"There's no line for Whip Lash." He said, sprinting off towards the ride.

"Bastard!" I yelled, sprinting after him. I tackled him, sending us both to the ground. We rolled around in the grass, laughing and wrestling with each other. People walking past us trying not to trip, some giggling and laughing at the scene unfolding. We were stopped by a sudden explosion. I looked up in time to see a trio of flying teenagers fly past me.

"CUTIE MARK CRUSADER EXTREME JET PACK ADVENTURES!" I heard them simultaneously say as they flew circles around us.

"Where did you even..." I said, scratching my head. I watched as Scootaloo landed in front of me.

"Hey Rainbow Dash! How did I do?" She said, excitedly waiting for my response.

"Uhhh... Well.." I said as I heard a loud crash, followed by a scream.

"MY EARRINGS!" I heard a familiar voice yell.

"Sorry Rarity!" I heard Sweetie Bell yell as she zoomed past me. I turned around to see Rarity walking towards me, earrings littering her hair and clothes.

"Hey Rarity, you know Christmas isn't for a few months right?" I giggled.

"Not...another...word." She said, storming off to where Sweetie Bell went.

"So Rainbow Dash. I know you can't fly, so I was wondering... Did you want a try?" Scootaloo said, taking her jetpack off and handing it to me. I stared at it, a rush of excitement flowing through me as the idea sunk in.

"Um... Sure!" I said, putting it on. I put my hand on the remote and pressed a button. "So how's this wor-" I was interrupted by a sudden shock of force, sending me flying. After a few seconds of regaining my sense of direction, turned the stick and started heading straight. The controls were pretty simple. A smile formed as I felt the wind on my face for the first time in awhile. I almost started crying, if it weren't for the cheering below me. I looked down to see the entire crowd chanting, "Rainbow! Rainbow! Rainbow!"

I cranked up the speed and started performing tricks, looping all over the festival as people cheered for me. This is the most excitement I've had all day, no all week! I zoomed up into the sky and through the clouds, hovering there as I saw a view I have missed. I sat on the edge of the clouds, looking down at the festival. I sat there, taking in the sight as I relaxed on the cloud. I couldn't help but laugh. I'd better get back, hope they didn't miss me! Before I jumped, I felt a sting of pain shoot through my body, causing me to black out.

Everything was dark.. I was alone, looking for someone. I don't know who.. Then I heard something, no.. someone, calling my name. Color began to fill the void, as I noticed I was in the air, falling. Sound flooded back to me as I heard screams. I looked down to see the crowd screaming and pointing at me as I plummeted toward them.

"Shit!" I said, remembering what happened. I pressed the button on the jetpack, but was met with a fizzle as it died. "SHIIIT!" I yelled. I closed my eyes tight as I waited for the impact.

"I love you so much Red.." I said to myself. "I'm so sorry.."

"Sorry about what?" Red said. My eyes shot open. I was floating above the ground, a purple aura around me. I turned my head to see Twilight Sparkle standing there in a sweat, holding me a few feet above the ground with her magic.
Then suddenly I was dropped, landing on my hands and knees. Red pulled my to my feet and yanked the jetpack off.

"More fuel next time." He said, handing it to Scootaloo, who nodded in return.

"So what happened up there?" Twilight asked, panting.

"I felt another one of those pains.. I guess I blacked out." I said

"Well I suppose we have had enough excitement for today. How about we take a break on the Ferris Wheel?" Red said, motioning to the ride. I looked around at the crowd, which was gathered around me, clapped, and went back to doing their own things.

"Yeah.. That sounds nice." I said.

"You're in no condition to be walking though." He said before lifting me up and carrying me in his arms. I giggled, holding on to him as I nuzzled my head against him. After a minute of walking, we arrived at the Ferris Wheel. He set me down on one of the seats and paid the guy up front, whispering something to him, followed by a nod in reply. We sat together as it started, slowly rising to the top. After we got to the highest point, it stopped.

"It's a nice view." Dash said, leaning into me.

"It's about to get better." Red said, pointing out into the sky as fireworks lit up the dusk night.

"Whoa!" I said, marveling at the patterns of colors blanketing the gloomy twilight. We sat there gazing at the stars, the occasional firework catching our eye.

10 MINUTES LATER: Red's POV

I sat there, holding her in my arms as we stared off the Ferris Wheel in peaceful harmony.

"Listen Dash, it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard. We're going to have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me... everyday." I said, looking out into the sky.

"I can't..." Rainbow Dash said.

"I know... I know. But I will be there every step of the way, always with you. For however long that is." I said, beginning to feel sorrow build up in me.

"I can't..." She repeated.

"What do you mean?" I asked, looking down at her. She was holding her chest.

"I can't...Breathe."

Author's Note

Holy monologues Batman! Again, sorry about the wait. I was on a writing spree last night and finished both this and 3+4 the next chapter. It will NOT be as long a wait.

Beep

I stood there, staring at Dash's lifeless body in disbelief, the sound of the others being drowned out by the buzzing of the ECG, seeming to grow louder in my head. I walked over to the bed, staring down at her. I looked at the table next to the bed and saw the potion sitting there, empty.

"She woke up for awhile and drank it.. But... We were just too late." I heard Twilight say, turning my head to see she had followed me into the room. I looked back down at Rainbow Dash, putting my hand on her arm. I couldn't... No, I wouldn't believe this was happening.

"Dash wake up..." I said, shaking her arm slightly.

"Red.." Twilight said.

"Come on Dash just... Just open your eyes. We still have to watch Celelstia raise the sun remember? We were going to do it together..." I said with a forced smile.

"Red she's gone.." Twilight said, a sadness in her voice.

"No she's not.. She's just sleeping. The ECG isn't working, those things never work." I hesitated, my denial only growing.

"Red..." Twilight said, putting a hand on my shoulder.

"DON'T TOUCH ME!" I snapped, hitting her hand away. I fell to my knees beside the bed, never letting go of Dash's hand.

"Please wake up.." I said, tears finally trickling down my face. "Please... Please god.. Don't leave me."

I felt a hand on my arm. I turned to see everyone standing by me. They all embraced me, our tears mixing together as we sobbed. My will was broken, I had nothing left to say..

ONE HOUR LATER: Red's POV:

I sat there staring at Rainbow Dash. Everyone had left. I chose to stay, to say my goodbyes.

"Red?" I heard a doctor say, peeking into the room.

"What do you want?" I said angrily.

"We are going to need to take her down soon." The doctor said, motioning to Rainbow Dash.

"Just give me a minute." I said, looking back at her. The doctor sighed, then closed the door. The sound of the ECG still buzzing. I had actually forgotten about it. I would turn it off, but I don't really care.

"I love you so much..." I said, standing up. I looked at her, leaning close.

"Goodbye..." I said, making contact with her lips. I kissed her, a new wave of tears silently falling down my skin and on to hers. I got up and turned away. I walked to the door, not looking back. I froze, with my hand on the door knob. I was about to turn the handle, when I heard it...

Beep...

I thought it was just my imagination, but it happened again... Beep........ Beep.....Beep...Beep.. My heart started to race. I turned around to face the bed. I darted to the bed, my eyes wider than dinner plates. I stared down at her. Her eyes opened...

"Hey Red.. How long was I asleep?" She said, looking up at me. My eyes began to water. I hugged her, throwing all the bottled up emotions I had into her.

"Why are you crying?" She asked hazily, "Did something happen?"

I couldn't speak. There were no words to express how I was feeling at this moment. My entire body was trembling, my grip tightening around her.

"Your shaking.. Are you okay? What happened to you?" She said, seeing the cuts and bruises on me. "How long was I asleep?"

"That doesn't matter. All the matters is your here now." I said, looking back into her eyes and kissing her.

"What's gotten in to you?" She said with a sweet tone after the kiss was broken.

"I'll tell you later..." I said, pulling her back into a kiss.

ONE HOUR LATER: Red's POV:

I stood there, leaning against the wall as Rarity, Twilight, and the others crowded around Rainbow Dash, asking questions between hugs.

"I was dead for how long?" Rainbow Dash asked quizzically.

"Over an hour." Doctor Cross said, staring at Dash with astonishment. "You shouldn't... Be alive right now. Your heart stopped for... I don't.. It's a miracle."

"Well whatever happened, she's here now." Twilight said.

"Well... I'm going to need to ask her some questions... For scientific purposes." The doctor said, "But I suppose that can wait."

Doctor Cross left the room, taking a double take back to Rainbow Dash before closing the door.

"What was it like darling?" Rarity asked.

"Was there a light?" Spike asked.

"I done heard it smells like apples." Applejack said.

"Was there cake?!" Pinkie said, pushing Rarity and Applejack out of the way.

"Come on now girls, don't crowd her." Twilight said. The door clicked open.

"Can you give us a bit doctor? We just need some time alone. You can ask her questions later." Twilight said, not looking at who entered the room.

"I haven't come for questions." A voice I instantly recognized, shooting my head towards the door. It was the man from the woods.

"Could I have my cloak back?" He asked, looking at Twilight. She stared blankly at him.

"S..sure." Twilight said, reaching into her bag and handing him her cloak. He quickly put the cloak on and turned around.

"Thank you.." Me and Twilight said. He left the room, Twilight following closely behind him.

"Hey can I ask you a few questions?" Twilight said as she closed the door behind her. With a sigh I turned around, staring out the window. I saw someone.. A figure far out in the distance. He was wearing a black cloak, his face covered by a hood. I squinted to try to get a better look at him.

"Whatcha lookin at?" Pinkie said, startling me.

"Who's that?" I said, turning back to the window to see the figure had vanished.

"Who's who?" Pinkie said, staring out the window. I shook my head,

"Never mind.. It's nothing." I said, staring out the window, a smile creeping up on my face.

"Thank you..." I said quietly to myself. I got up and approached Rainbow Dash, and grabbed her hand, squeezing it tight.

"Guess what." Rainbow Dash said.

"What?" I asked curiously.

"My wings don't hurt anymore." She said with a beaming face, a twinkle in her eye.

"So... The potion.." I started.

"Yep." She said

"That's fantastic!" I said, picking her up off the bed and spinning around with her in my arms. She laughed excitedly as I lifted her up. Setting her down on her feet. She stumbled, trying to regain her balance after sitting for so long.

"So.. What do you think happened?" She asked.

"What do you mean?" I replied.

"Well, even I have to agree with the doctors. I shouldn't be alive right now. What happened?" She asked. Twilight entered the room and approached us.

"Weren't you going to ask the guy in the hat questions?" I asked Twilight.

"Well I was... But after he turned the corner, he was gone." She said disappointedly.

"Well?" Dash said, "Why do you think I'm alive?" She asked again. I turned my head to the window, the black hooded figure was back, this time was different however. The cloaked man with the hat was standing beside him. They were both facing the window. I blinked, and they were gone... I smiled. I looked back at Rainbow Dash and said,

"I guess you could say Death has a heart."

Epilogue

TEN YEARS LATER: Red's POV.

"Come on guys your going to miss it!" I said running to the door.

"Coming dad!" I heard a pair of voices say as Starlight and Dusk Shimmer ran out of the hallway and followed me outside. We made our way to Town Square. There was a large crowd gathered for the event. I looked around and spotted Twilight and the gang waiting for me. I ran up to them, waving.

"About time you got here, you almost missed it!" Pinkie said excitedly.

"There she is!" Spike yelled, pointing to the sky. I saw Rainbow Dash speeding in this direction, high in the sky. She sped up, sliding her goggles on as she raced in this direction. Everyone cheered as she got closer. Then finally when she was directly above us.. Boom! A large circular shaped rainbow appeared, expanding toward the horizon as she spiraled down toward us, landing with a graceful pose on top of the statue.

"Rainbow Dash!" I yelled up to her. She looked down and smiled, flying down to us.

"How did I do?" She asked as I pulled her close.

"You did great. We're so proud of you Dash! Your the best damn Pegasus in Equestira. And I'm married to you." I said pulling her in for a kiss. Our lips met and the crowd's cheering grew two fold. Our eyes closed as we let the passionate kiss sink in.

"Wowie Zowie!" I heard Pinkie say. Me and Rainbow Dash's eyes snapped open wide. Our heads turned slightly to see Pinkie leaning in, her face inches away from ours.

"You sure are a great kisser Rainbow Dash!" Pinkie said with a smile stuck on her face. We both stared at Pinkie as a purple aura encompassed her and lifted her away.

"We'll be over here when you're finished." Twilight Sparkle said, lifting Pinkie back to the group. Me and Dash looked back to each other and laughed. Our lips closed the already miniscule gap between us as we continued to the kiss. Today was perfect. We have everything we could ever want. A good life, and two beautiful kids. There's our son Starlight, and our daughter Dusk Shimmer. We turned to the crowd and I raised Dash's arm up in triumph. The crowd exploding with chanting.

"Rainbow Dash! Rainbow Dash!"

We looked at each other, smiling.

"WHO'S READY FOR AN ENCORE!" I yelled. The crowd yelling for more.

"You heard em Dash. Show em what you're made of." I said as she nodded, sailing into the air. I watched as she flew over the horizon.

I've learned that life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself. Yeah sure, life is hard. bad things happen. People say mean things. People lie. More bad things happen. people die. They betray you. You feel alone. You say all the things you don't mean, and none of the things you do. People talk about you, they make fun of you. You talk, you make fun of. You never feel like you're good enough. You feel like nobody understands you and you just want all the pain to go away. You feel like there's nothing to live for. All your dreams have been crushed. You can try to be perfect, but you won't ever be. I'm not trying to put you down, it's just the truth. And as cliché as it sounds, it's true. Nobody's perfect. You can try anything you want to make life less hard. Pills, knives, talking about people. But it won't help. Because sometimes all you can do in life is keep hoping, wishing, dreaming, and knowing. Knowing, that eventually, life will get better. Sometimes you just have to keep looking for the light at the end of the tunnel. You gotta take the good with the bad, smile with the sad, love what you got, and remember what you had. Learn to forgive, but never forget, learn from your mistakes, and never regret. People change, things go wrong, just remember, life goes on. It'll go on with or without you, and you have to make sure that you're tagging along for the ride.

And remember: Everybody wants to be happy. Nobody wants to be in pain, but you can't have a Rainbow without any rain.

In private. Something strange happened awhile ago with
a... A colt, a colt that I just couldn't stay away from. He makes me feel
weird, and before you say anything, not that you could.. Since this is
a letter and all, I... I think i am in love with him. Well after you hear
this story I think you will figure that out yourself. He's SO cute!

Author's Note

This is my first story I've done so I don't expect it to be very good. Just hope a few of you out there like it!

Helpless

Red's POV:

"Rainbow Dash?!" I said in a panic. She was beginning to gasp for air. I jumped up and looked over the edge.

"HELP! SOMEONE HELP!" I screamed. The conductor of the ride looked up at me in confusion.

"SHE NEEDS TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL! GET US DOWN!" I yelled down to him. His eyes widened and he rushed to the controls, pulling levers and pushing buttons.

"It's not working!" He yelled, continuing to fiddle with the machinery. I was lost in a sea of horror, knowing we were stuck up here, helpless. I looked back at Dash, who was starting to look faint.

"Dash just... Just hold on! Please!" I said, kneeling down to her. She looked up at me, tears forming on her eyes as she gasped for air. I looked out to the sky, seeing shooting stars. I closed my eyes and prayed.

"Please... Someone help us." I said silently.

"Give her to me!" I heard a booming voice behind me say. I turned around to see..

"Princess Luna!" I said in astonishment.

"If you want her to live, hand her to me." She said again. I quickly picked her up and transferred her to Luna, who was hovering just outside the basket.

"I will take her to the hospital. Do not worry." She said, speeding away before I could say anything. I fell back into the seat, closing my eyes.

"Please... Please be alright." I said to myself.

TWO HOURS LATER: Red's POV

I rushed through the doors and into the hospital, running to the front desk.

"Where is she?" I said impatiently. The nurse pointed to the first room behind her. I sped past her and into the room, seeing Rainbow Dash lying down, asleep. I froze beside her, heart pounding. Doctor Cross walked in, putting a hand on my shoulder.

"Is she...Okay?" I asked.

"I'm.. Afraid not." The doctor said.

"What's wrong with her?" I asked, fear brewing in my gut.

"The nerve's are degrading...faster than expected." Doctor Cross said.

"But.. I... What does that mean?" I said, looking him in the eyes.

"It means that.. We don't know how long she has left." He said with great sadness in his eyes.

"You.... You said.." I stuttered.

"I know what I said. But I never expected this.." He said, turning away from me. "She.. She probably won't survive the night."

He walked to the door and turned to me, "I know this is sudden... No one expected this. She should be waking up any time now. You should think... About saying goodbye." He said, leaving the room and shutting the door. I was speechless.. I approached Dash and stroked her hair. I fell to my knees, my head falling to the bed.

"Please...God please don't do this.." I cried, bursting into tears.

"Don't go.. Please don't leave...Please god don't leave me..." I said between sobs. I sat there holding her hand, weeping into the sheets on the bed.

"Dash... I'm so sorry.. I could have...I should have done more." I said, the last vestiges of my sanity breaking down. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..."

"Sorry about what?" I heard her say weakly. My eyes snapped open as I looked up at her. She was smiling. I put her into a hug, holding her so tight I thought I might choke her.

"It's good to see you too Red.." She said, returning the hug.

"I love you more than anything in this world Rainbow Dash." I said quickly.

"I know that.. Where's all this coming from?" She said groggily. It was then that I realized they hadn't told her. More tears began to well up in my eyes as I fell into her. She held my head to her chest as I wept.

"It's okay Red. I'm here.. We still got a week remember?" She said smiling. "No tears now."

I looked up at her, wanting to scream. I wanted to tear this whole room apart. It wasn't fair. NONE OF IT WAS FAIR! My train of thought was interrupted by a knock at the door. Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, and the others entered the room, gathering around Rainbow Dash.

"Are you okay?" Fluttershy asked. I could see dried tears on her face, on all of their faces. They must have heard the news too. I had never seen Applejack cry, but you could tell her face had seen tears from the way her eyes looked, swollen and red. All six of them were a mess, Spike included.

"Yeah.." Rainbow Dash said, "They gave me some medicine to help stop the pain, I fell asleep right after it though.."

"That's good.." Rarity said, sniffling as she wiped away some of the eye liner that was running down her face.

"Hey guys.." Dash said.

"Yeah Dash? What did you need?" I asked

"I'm kind of tired.. I think I'm going to go to sleep for a bit.." She said. A fresh batch of tears finding its way out as I began to sob lightly, hearing the others do the same.

"Do you think.." I started to say, holding back more tears. "You could stay awake a bit longer?"

"I really want to sleep.." She said with an innocent smile. "Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. Celestia should be raising the sun soon, you should go see it. Don't let me stop you from enjoying yourself."

It was at that point that Pinkie broke down and started crying into Twilight's shoulder.

"Alright.." I nodded, giving her hand a squeeze before she closed her eyes. I stood up and looked at the others. We all stood there watching her sleep, never leaving her side. Occasionally letting out a sob that couldn't be held back anymore. It was then that... I saw something. There was a letter on the stand next to the bed. I picked it up and looked at the name on the envelope, dictating who it was from.

"Who's Zecora?" I asked, turning to the group. Twilight took the envelope from my hand and looked at it.

"Zecora is a zebra who lives in the Everfree forest. She's a friend.." Twilight said, opening the letter. Her eyes went wide as she read it, snapping her head up to me.

"What does it say?" I asked.

She started reading it, "Dear my friend Rainbow Dash, A condition I heard you wish to surpass. A concoction I have found and made, come quickly if you wish my aid. My time I ask you do not waste, so please come to me with haste."

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. There's a chance we could save her! Everyone in the room lit up with hope filling their eyes.

"She's all the way in the Everfree forest.. It could take us all night to get there and back..." I said.

"Not if I can help it.. Hold on Red." Twilight said, reaching out and grabbing me. There was a purple flash of light. We were no longer standing in the hospital. It was just me and Twilight, standing outside a house in the middle of a swamp-ish area. I looked over to Twilight, who looked extremely tired.

"That took a lot out of me... Usually it would be fine, but the distance was too much..." She said, panting. "Go get the potion, hurry."

I rushed to the door and knocked, a few seconds later the door opened, and a hooded figure answered it, looking me up and down.

"Who be tresspassin on my land? Begone, go, you must disband!" She said, about to close the door before I shoved it open.

"Please wait, Twilight Sparkle is here with me. I'm Rainbow Dash's husband." I said quickly.

"Ah yes you simply gave me fright, but late you are to have come this night." She said, walking inside.

"A warning I must give and am not sarcastic, this potion will not work if used with magic." She said, looking at Twilight.

"Oh no.." Twilight said, looking at me. "That means I can't teleport us back."

"I guess we'll just have to do it the old fashioned way." I said. Zecora put the portion in a small sack, which I slung over my shoulder.

"Thank you Zecora, I owe you more than one." I said dashing out of the building with Twilight following shortly behind me.

TEN MINUTES LATER: Red's POV

"Come on Twilight!" I yelled back, a good 20 feet ahead of her.

"I'm not... The most... ATHLETIC TYPE!" She yelled between gasps for air.

We ran down the path, occasionally stopping for Twilight to point me. I wasn't as familiar with Everfree as Twilight was.

"I don't remember that rock.." Twilight said, starting to sound worried.

"We can't be lost now.. just... just keep moving!" I said, keeping my pace.

"Red stop!" She shouted

"We can't stop now!" I yelled back.

"RED!" She screamed, forcing me to look back. My eyes widened in shock as my feet could no longer move. Twilight was trapped in an enormous spider web.

"Red cut me out of here.." She said frantically, looking around.

"With what?!" I asked, searching for something sharp. "Can't you use your magic?" I asked. Her eyes lit up.

"Oh right!" She said. The web began to glow with a purple hue. She tried to pull it down, but she couldn't move it.

"Can't you teleport out?" I asked, trying to think of ideas.

"I don't know.. The last teleport took a lot out of me, but I'll try." She said as her horn began to glow. There was a flash of light that forced me to cover my eyes. When I looked back, she was still in the web.

"It didn't work?" I said, looking the web up and down.

"I don't know why it didn't... The web must not be effected by magic." She said, starting to sound more worried.

"But that doesn't explain why YOU didn't teleport out." I said, trying to understand.

"I don't know! I'm trying okay?" She said angrily. It was then that something dawned on me.. I looked at the satchel with the potion in it. I looked up at Twilight, then out in the jungle. Rainbow Dash doesn't have very long...

"I'm sorry Twilight..." I said.

"Red... What are you.." I said as he sprinted off into the jungle. "RED WAIT! YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME HERE!"

Panic started to sink in as I heard rustling nearby. I looked around with what little freedom I had. Then my heart dropped. The web was shaking... As if something was walking on it. I looked up and screamed, as a spider twice my size was crawling towards me, fangs extended.

"RED!!" I screamed, beginning to tear up.

"SOMEONE HELP ME!" I yelled hopelessly as the spider inched its way down to me. I closed my eyes and waited for the end, knowing there was nothing I could do. Then the movement stopped. I looked up at the spider, who was focused on something els. Immediately a rock came flying out of the jungle and hit the spider in the head. It squealed, looking around for the attacker.

"RAHHHHHH!" I heard a familiar voice yell. Red charged out of the tree's with a spear in hand, the tip made from a sharpened rock, fastened at the end of a sturdy looking stick. The spider jumped off the web and charged toward Red. Red lured it away into the forest. I was alone.. But at least I wasn't in danger of getting eaten. I struggled more to get free, but to no avail. Then I heard a noise behind me, I struggled to turn my head but was stuck in place by the webbing. I heard foot steps closing in on me. My eyes widened as I tugged at the web, fearing of what kind of horrid creature could be coming toward me. I heard something that I had not expected. Behind me was the sound of metal grinding against leather. Not three seconds later, a dagger was thrust through the webbing, next to my head. I stared at the long metal weapon as it moved down, cutting me free from the web. I fell to the ground, spinning around to meet my liberator. Only to catch a glimpse of a hooded figure sprinting into the trees.

"Wait!" I yelled, "Who are.."

It was gone.. I looked down, and noticed that whoever it was left his dagger. I picked it up and looked it up and down. There was a symbol etched into the metal. It was a star with a crescent moon whirling around it. It looked so familiar, I know I've seen it before... I was snapped out of my thoughts by a sudden scream.

"RED!" I yelled, sprinting into the forest in the direction of the shout. I peek through some bushes to see the spider sitting still, Red lying on the ground in front of it. I ran toward the spider and plunged the dagger into its thorax. To my surprise, it didn't react at all. I pulled it out and stabbed it again, no reaction. It was then that I realized.. It was dead. I walked around to the front, to see the spear Red had pierced through its head. I looked down at Red, who was panting heavily, sweat dripping down his face.

"Red! Are you okay?" I asked, kneeling down to his level.

"I've been better.." He said as I helped him sit up, now leaning against the trunk of a tree.

"Come on, we have to get back to the hospital, let's go!" I said taking about 10 steps before noticing he wasn't following me.

"I don't think I'm going anywhere.." He said.

"What do you.." I said before seeing a blood stain on his right pant leg. I approached it, slowly pulling it up. I saw two small holes which looked like fang marks.

"Oh my god..." I said fearfully.

"I would move... But I can't really feel my legs." He said looking up to me.

I grabbed him and tried to teleport us, but I was too weak. I didn't have the strength to get us out..

"Your going to need this." He said, handing me the satchel on his back.

"Red you cant be serious.." I tried to say.

"Listen, I can feel the venom. I'm not getting any better. Just take it and go.. It'll make me happy knowing I'll have saved 'Two' people's lives tonight." He said, giving me a weak smile.

"Red...You could die.." I said, on the verge of sobbing as tears filled my eyes.

"Hey hey... Come on now." He said with a gentle and caring voice, wiping the tears off my face. "Go be the hero Twilight. There's a friend that needs you."

"You can't expect me to just leave you here Red!" I said, "I can't just let you die here!"

"Twilight listen to me. I wake up every morning next to Rainbow Dash, knowing she might not wake up the next day. Each night I close my eyes, a little part of me dies. I can't keep going on knowing she might not be there when I wake up. But tonight I was given hope. And you are the only thing keeping it alive. If she dies, so will I. Maybe not immediately, maybe not with the same blinding rush of pain, but it would happen. I can't live without a heart. SO GO!" He yelled, pushing me back.

"SAVE HER! GOD DAMNIT SAVE HER!" Red yelled, tears streaming down his face. I wanted to cry. I wanted to just fall to the ground and curl up in a ball. I didn't want to leave him, but I knew what he said was true. I need to get this back to the hospital to save Rainbow Dash. I closed my eyes, having made my decision.

"You're not afraid to die?" I said, looking out into the forest.

"I've been dead for a long time.." He started to say, "I started living when I met Rainbow Dash. No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for. And I'd die for her."

I squeezed the satchel, holding it tight.

"Goodbye.." I said. I waited for a response, looking back at him. His eyes were closed...My emotions skyrocketed as I saw him fade from conciseness. I wiped my face, clearing the tears from my eyes and ran into the forest.

Pain was spreading like a disease. Flowing up my leg like a raging river. My vision faded to black, the sound around me waning as everything faded to black.

"Goodbye.." I heard, snapping me back to reality for a moment. My eyes shot open, the spider still dead in front of me. Twilight was gone. The pain now reaching my chest as I clenched my fists, wanting to scream. I blacked out again. I opened my eyes again, a small bit of life left in me, reaching out. What I saw surprised me. The hooded figure from earlier...

"You...You dropped your spear." I said, motioning to the dead spider, who was impaled on it. He walked towards me, his face concealed in the shadowy contents of his hood.

"Are... Are you Death?" I asked. Even in the black void of his cloak, I could make out a smile. My vision faded once again as I heard a small cackle from the hooded man.

"It kills me sometimes, how people die." I heard an elderly stricken voice say, followed by a sharp pain in my arm. I was forced back to reality. I looked down at my arm to see the man sticking a needle in me. The pain from the venom, which had moved to my arms, began to withdraw slowly. I looked up at him to notice he wasn't wearing a hood. Only what looked like a hood in the darkness that he was standing in. He was wearing a large hat, which blocked out the light of the moon from his face. A large cloak around him, as blue as the night sky alit by the moon. There was a crescent moon on his cloak, followed by many stars twisting around it. I could make out a long beard jutting out into the light as he took the needle out.

"You....why?" I said, realizing he had given me an antidote.

"Let's say Death has a heart." He said, turning and walking away.

"Wait! Who...Who are you?" I asked.

"Star." He said, disappearing into the forest. I stood up, still feeling weak, and hobbled forward. I stepped on something.. I looked down to see a rolled up piece of paper. I bent over and read it. It was a map.. With a red X on it. This must be where I am.. But how did.. I looked up into the forest, a smile appearing on my face.

"Thank you..." I said, before limping off into the forest.

"Damnit! Damnit damnit!" I said to myself. I looked at the pouch Red gave me, and up at the endless forest that laid in wait in front of me. I heard a noise, causing me to spin around. I saw the hooded figure from earlier, staring at me..

"Who.. Who are you." I said, brandishing the knife, my hand shaking. He just stood there, watching me.

"You cut me down... Why? And why did you leave your knife?" I asked, fear in my voice. He turned and bolt in the opposite direction.

"WAIT!" I yelled, running after him. I was faster than him. I inched closer and closer to him, reaching out to grab him as I neared his shadowy figure. My hand grabbed his cloak as I tripped on a rock. I fell to the ground, tearing his cloak off as he sprinted out of sight. I got up and looked around. Wait... I was on the path. I know where I am! He lead me here... Who is he? I looked down at the cloak, seeing the pattern of stars billowing around like a blanket across it, a crescent moon pasted on one side of it. It seemed so familiar... I know I've seen this before. I didn't have time to think about it. I shook my head and barreled down the path and out of the forest.

"I'm coming Rainbow Dash!" I said.

I followed the map out of the forest, finally seeing Ponyville near the end of my line of sight. A smile slid on to my face as a wave of happiness flooded over me. I fell to my knees, laughing. I made my way down the road, entering town square. I got many looks and gasps from people. I was pretty bruised and beaten up, not to mention the blood stain on my pant leg. I saw the hospital in sight. I saw someone coming out of the hospital.. It was Twilight!

"Twilight!" I yelled. She looked up, tears staining her face. She lit up when she saw me, surprise turning into happiness.

"RED!" She yelled, nearly tackling me to the ground with a hug.

"Your... But how?" She asked in disbelief.

"Let's just say.. Death has a heart." I said with a smile.

"What about Dash, can I see her?" I asked. Her smile turned into a frown as tears started to build up in her eyes.

"Red... She..." She said, looking up at me. My heart sank as I looked up. I started running with what strength I had left to the building.

"Red wait!" I heard her say as I burst through the door and down the hall. I opened the door and ran in, to see Spike, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie, standing around the bed, crying. I heard a long monotone buzzing sound. I looked at the ECG, to see it flat lining...
