Intro
5 years ago something happened to Rainbow Dash that changed her life. She was accidentally sent to a place called earth where she was turned into a philly. There someone found her and raised her like a daughter.
They shared many laughs and good times together. Sadly she lost her memory about her friends and family but eventually she found out. She was devastated at first but then she learned to accept it but she still couldn't get back to Ponyville.
She didn't really care about that anyway, she was happy where she was but they both knew that one day they would find her and take her back. So as time went on the day they both feared finally came, Rainbow's friends finally found her and they took her back.
At first she didn't want to go back but she knew she didn't belong in this world, no matter how much she didn't want to believe it. They were both devastated but the man who took care of her was the most hurt but he knew this was the right thing to do.
He knew that she would be free to do whatever she wanted if she went back but he won't be there for her anymore until one day Rainbow had a question to ask to her friend Cerulean Protector. A pony who is actually a human but only she and her other friends know this secret.
Part 1
It’s been 5 years since I came to PonyVille and I have to admit, I feel like I've lived here all my life. I still remember my world but strangely I don't remember much of it anymore. Even though I originally grew up there I don't really remember much. Is it a good thing or a bad thing, maybe it’s a good thing.
I can only really remember my childhood and the time I spent with my sister Fluttershy. Yeah, I may be a human and Fluttershy is a pony but we have this bond that feels like we're brother and sister. We may have our little fights but all in all nothing can break our bond.
I wonder if Rainbow Dash misses the person who took care of her when she accidentally wounded up in my world. Kinda like with Fluttershy except Fluttershy wasn't turned into a filly. Rainbow hasn't said much about the guy in anyway. Anytime I ask her about it she gets all quiet.
I remember when we were barricaded in Town Hall she was about to say something but she was interrupted. I tried to get her talk but her stubborn pride won't allow it. She keeps on saying that she doesn't want to get all sappy about it but I think it bothers her.
I mean i’m sure, she does think about him but she doesn't want anyone of us to think she's going soft or something. Her pride can be annoying but she's Rainbow Dash, the best flyer in Equestria. Also the most stubborn, but she’s her and I can’t change her.
I guess i’m 2nd best since I can fly as fast as her and we can both do the sonic rainboom together. I remember one time we had a race and we flew so fast we did a rainboom together and nearly made Ponyville go into panic.
Luckily nothing bad happened but it was funny seeing everypony running around, panicking and saying, "It’s the end!" Man they panic about the smallest things. Only a few windows were broken and they’re out running and screaming.
Sadly I lost the race that day but I’ve actually beat her a couple of times but she's ahead by a lot. I've only beaten her a few times and she's like in the hundreds or something but its very rewarding seeing her face when I win.
She always has this proud look on her and so do the other ponies. Now every time we race literally a crowd of ponies show up and watch us compete. Even though I lose most of the time it’s still fun to race her.
I never knew she had a fanclub until Scootaloo brought her friends with her to watch us race. They all had a hat that was Rainbow's main and wore a shirt that had “Rainbow Dash!” on it with a picture of her on it.
They also had little flag things that said RD #1, makes me wish I had a fanclub. They’re basically the reason the why ponies started watching us race in the first place. No matter who wins they also cheer for both of us...Just a little more for the victor.
One time we did another rainboom together while racing and we literally blew them away. Luckily nopony got hurt so it wasn't too bad. They were quite surprised to see another pony do a sonic rainboom.
At first they were speechless but then they went crazy and cheered for us both. Guess they didn't know Rainbow wasn't the only pony able to do a sonic rainboom. Now every time we race we leave posters everywhere saying when our next race is.
I have noticed for the past few days something has been bothering Rainbow because our last race I won so easily it wasn't funny. Rainbow flew so slow, hardly tried and she seemed really worried about something. After the race was over she asked me if we could talk tomorrow at her house then left without saying anything else.
I’m not sure what she wants to talk about but it must be important because I didn't see her the rest of day. The others have noticed too and wondered what’s up but Rainbow said nothing. They all asked me what’s wrong but I had no idea either.
Fluttershy seemed the most worried but then again she worries about a lot of things. I’m glad she doesn't get all dramatic like Rarity. That pony always overreacts to every little thing. Sometimes it’s just annoying on how dramatic she gets.
One time she started saying, "This is unacceptable!" over and over because of an outfit she made for Fluttershy and I that didn't look right to her. They looked fine to us but she said otherwise but she's Rarity so I won't complain too much. The others must be as worried as Fluttershy too.
When I woke up I immediately ate breakfast, helped Fluttershy feed the animals and flew to Rainbow's house. By time I got to her house I could've swore I heard crying coming from inside. When I knocked on the door it got quiet then I heard Rainbow's voice.
"Just a sec!" she said.
Strange, her voice sounded different, it sounded more scratchier than usual and depressed. By the time she opened the door her eyes were droopy, she had bags under them and she seemed like she hadn't slept all night. Her posture was a little off too, she looks sluggish and out of it.
"Hey..." mumbled Rainbow.
"Hey Rainbow, you wanted to talk?"
She nodded her head only once, "Come in..."
I walked inside and followed her to her kitchen. I wonder what's up with her, she’s never like this. If i’m correct, I don’t think i’ve ever seen her like this before. I don’t think her friends have seen her like this either.
"Need any food?" she muttered.
"No I ate before I came here. What”s up, are you ok?"
"No, I want to ask you something....Something serious." said Rainbow.
Her voice became stern and hard almost like she demanded my attention. What ever she wants to talk about it must be really serious. I took a seat and gave her my full attention.
Author's Note
I'm pretty sure the thing you thought was, this was extremely rushed. Let me explain, it was summer so I had nothing else to do. The story came to mind and I was really into it. I stayed on my laptop for hours typing this. I finished it late at night and here we are lol. Either way my sister said this was a great story, let me know what you think. And if you see any errors or have advice on how they should talk or whatnot i'd appreciate it. Next part comes Tuesday, hope you'll like it.

Part 2
At the moment I sit with Rainbow Dash, a friend of mine who about to ask me a question. She told me yesterday to come to her house and now I wait for her question. She has seemed depressed over the days and she hasn’t told anypony why until now.
"Remember when we were barricaded in Town Hall with the others and you asked me a question but I never answered?" asked Rainbow.
I nodded my head, "Yeah I remember. I asked you if you missed the person who took care of you when you ended up in my world."
"Yeah I remember that. But my answer is yes. I miss him very much. Over the years that have gone by I started to become really worried about him." said Rainbow.
"Is that why you didn't try at the race yesterday and just left?"
She nodded her head but said nothing.
"...Is that also why you were crying earlier to?"
She immediately looked up, "You heard me?"
I nodded my head again, "Do you wanna talk about it?"
"You won't make fun of me for getting all sappy...Will you?" said Rainbow.
"No. I’m not like that and you know it."
"Sorry." uttered Rainbow.
"That’s alright. So why were you crying?"
"I've just been so worried...It’s been bothering me ever since I got my memory back. At first I didn't really think much about it but now as we speak i’m thinking about him. It’s been driving me crazy!"
Tears began running down her face and she quickly looked away. I was a little surprised to see her like this. She must be really worried about him if it’s this bad. I don’t blame her though, I got to go back with Fluttershy but he didn’t.
"So what do you want to do about this?"
She wiped away her tears and faced me, " I need to know if he's ok. I need you...To go back to your world and find him."
My eyes widened for a second and my mind was blank for a bit. I wasn’t sure if I heard her right but...She wants ME to go back into my world...Can I even do that?
"Rainbow...I’m not even sure if I can do that..."
"Well we were able to come and take you and Fluttershy back so why can't you go back and check on him?" asked Rainbow.
"It’s just that...I don't think Celestia will let me do that. You gotta understand Rainbow that~"
"Can't you at least try? Please?" begged Rainbow.
I've never seen her beg like this ever and its pretty sad. From high and mighty to begging and on her knees. I don’t like to see her like this and i’ll do anything to help her.
"Alright...I'll see what I can do. But should we tell the others?"
"I guess. But only Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Twilight. Nopony else must know about this GOT IT!" said Rainbow.
"You think i’m that stupid? Of course I won't tell anypony else."
"Alright just making sure. Let’s meet at Twilight’s. Gather everypony and bring them there." ordered Rainbow.
"Alright, I'll see you later then."
I headed out and flew back to Fluttershy's cottage. By the time I got back Derpy and Doctor Whoof. were feeding the fish and Fluttershy was teaching a song to the birds.
"Hi Cerulean!" yelled Derpy excitedly.
"Hello Cerulean." waved Doctor Whoof. calmly.
I waved to both of them and told Fluttershy to meet me at Twilight's house now. She asked me what’s wrong but I told her Rainbow and I will explain once we gather at Twilight's. I then flew to AJ's and told her the same thing and to the rest.
By the time I got to Twilight's Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow and Twilight were waiting outside. Pinkie Pie and Rarity are the only ones that we had to wait on.
"What’s up?" questioned Twilight.
"Rainbow and I will explain once all of us are here."
She seemed confused but she nodded her and went back to waiting. 5 minutes later Rarity finally came but we’re still waiting on Pinkie. 10 minutes gone by and she's still not here.
"Where in the name of Celestia is that pony? We've been here forever!" complained Rainbow.
"Right here!" yelled Pinkie.
She jump out from Twilights window and landed right on me.
"Ow!...Hey wait, were you there the whole time?"
"Yep. I’m like a spy! Oh, secret agent Pinkie Pie!" said Pinkie.
"Thats great but CAN YOU GET OFF OF ME!"
"Oh sorry haha." chuckled Pinkie.
She hopped off of me which also hurt, just hope she didn't crack a rib or something. Well i’m not breathing weirdly so i’m fine. She’s a little heavy for a pony who can jump a 100 feet into the sky. How does she do that anyway...
"Alright now that everypony is here let's head inside and we'll explain everything." said Rainbow.
We went inside and Rainbow and I stood in front of our friends.
"So what’s this about?" asked Fluttershy.
"Remember when I accidentally wounded up in Cerulean's world? And this man found me and raised me because I was aged back to a philly?" asked Rainbow.
They all nodded their heads.
I spoke next, "She's been really worried about him and she wants me to go back to my world and check on him."
They were all thrown away by this idea. I expected this type of reaction, this is something they least expected to hear from us. They’re probably more thrown off since i’m the one who going to do this.
"What do you mean...Go back?" asked Fluttershy nervously.
"Like that. She wants me to go back to my world, find him and check if he's ok."
"But...What if you won't be able to come back..." said Fluttershy.
That’s one thing I never thought of, this is a very risky thing to do because I won't have Celestia there with me to bring me back. What if this doesn't work and I end up in my world with no chance of coming back. I began shaking with this realization and Rainbow seemed very concerned about this.
" I...I will come back. I promise. I’m not leaving my family behind. I'll find a way back, don't worry."
Tears began running run down Fluttershy's face and she began crying, " But what if this messes up? What’s going to happen to you!?"
She wrapped her hooves around me tightly and continued to sob. The others had a worried look on them. I wasn't even sure if this was going to work but I won't let this bring me down.
"I will come back. Pinkie promise. Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye."
She looked up, "Promise?”
I nodded my head and she let me go and walked back to the others. I know she’s extremely worried about this, same for the others. I could say no right now and forget this but I can’t, not after seeing Rainbow beg.
"Are you sure? I don't want to put any danger on you." asked Rainbow.
"I’m sure."
"Ok. Twilight can you ask Celestia to help us?" said Rainbow.
"We'll go to Canterlot and request a meeting." replied Twilight.
"You can do that?"
"Well yeah. I am a princess remember?" said Twilight sarcastically.
"Oh yeah. So are we going now?"
"No not now. The trains are in maintenance right now so we'll have to wait." said Twilight.
"How long?" questioned Applejack.
"About a week." answered Twilight.
"Alright then. We'll all meet up at the train station next week."
"Right!" said everypony.
We all left and headed home, Fluttershy and I walked slowly back to our cottage. She still was crying but quietly. She knows she can’t hide her feelings from me, I know her too well to know when she’s sad, worried or happy.
She placed her wing over me, "Are you sure about this?"
"Yes. I don't want to see Rainbow like this."
"But what if something goes wrong?" questioned Fluttershy.
"You were able to get Rainbow back and your friends were able to bring us back as well."
Fluttershy stopped and looked at me, "Yes but Celestia won't be there this time. How will you be able to come back?"
"I think Celestia will figure that out."
Tears began running down her face again, "Ok..."
She slowly wrapped her hooves around me and pulled me closer to her. I patted her back and comforted her. I know she’s worried about this, she could lose her brother because of this.
“It’ll be alright.”
“I just don’t want to lose you...” uttered Fluttershy.
“You won’t. I’m not going to leave you. We’ll figure this out ok?”
She nodded her head, loosened her arms but held me close and we began walking again. By the time we got back it was midnight. We went inside and sat in our room. She remained quiet and stared at the floor.
"Please don't cry again. You know I don't like it when I see you cry."
"Sorry..." she said in a quiet manner.
"Come on lets just get some sleep, I'll spend the whole week with you ok?"
That seemed to brighten her mood a little, "Ok."
We climbed into our bed and went to sleep. I really hope this works and I can come back. I don't want to leave her and the others behind. If i’m right, Fluttershy could do something horrible to herself if I don’t come back.
Author's Note
So Cerulean is asked to return to earth to search for Rainbow's long lost friend. He agrees but as they here the risks they're in, he begins to worry. What will happen when the time comes, we'll see.
Dashies Old Friend Returns
Part 3
It’s been about 3 days since Rainbow and I told our friends the plan and i’m starting to get nervous about this. Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Twilight, Rarity and Rainbow have been visiting us for the past few days. I guess they want my time here to be fun before I leave but i’m happy with just Fluttershy. I don't care if I was in a cave, as long as I had her I wouldn't be worried too much.
They all visit us about 3 times a day. I've done nothing but stay with Fluttershy this whole time. All we've done is feed the animals, play with Angle and Capachino and go out on a picnic.
Right now we’re just sitting together and I think she fell asleep on me again. She usually does this when we sit together. Its pretty cute because she huddles next to me when she's like this. Reminds me of when we were in the woods sleeping together in my world. I remember all the animals that were there including the deer.
I could go for a fly though, I’ve really been wanting to fly around a bit to stretch my wings but Fluttershy's asleep and I don't want to wake her up. A few minutes later I finally decided to wake her up and ask her if she wants to fly around for a bit.
"Hey, wake up."
She opened her eyes and stretched, "*yawns* Is something wrong?”
"No. I just wanna know if you want to fly around for a bit."
"Sure." she replied.
We got up, went outside and we flew into the sky. I made sure I flew to where she can keep up. Surprisingly she’s a lot faster than I thought. She passed me up in just a matter of seconds. I quickly caught to her, still a bit amazed at her speed.
"I didn't think you were this fast."
"Oh well when we had to bring water to Cloudsdale I had to train so I could fly faster. I didn't think I could do it but I beat my wing speed by a lot." said Fluttershy.
I raised an eyebrow, "Wing speed?"
"Its how fast you can fly. I’m around 9. I think you're around 14 or 15 because thats how fast Rainbow's was." explained Fluttershy.
"She's that fast?! Wow, she really is the best flyer."
"And you’re the 2nd best." added Fluttershy.
"You think so?"
"You two are the only ponies who can do a sonic rainboom and you too are the fastest flyers I've ever seen." said Fluttershy.
I started blushing because even though I thought of this its nice to hear somepony else say this, especially my sister. It was like when she told me i'm like a brother to her. You just feel so honored that someone would say that.
"Thanks. Wanna have a little race?"
She smiled and immediately sped up her flying. I was even more surprised on how fast she flew. I quickly snapped out of it, caught up to her quickly and immediately passed her. She was a bit surprised to see me pass her up so quickly.
I ended going inside a cloud and I couldn't tell which way was up and down and when I came out a mountain was right in front of me. I couldn’t stopped myself in time and I slammed into it pretty hard, you could hear a loud splat echo off into the distance.
I slowly slid to the ground and landed on my back. I was in a lot of pain and I ended up blacking out. When I woke up I was back home and Fluttershy and the others were huddled over me.
"Ugh...How did I get here?"
"I carried you back. You were knocked out when I found you." answered Fluttershy.
I chuckled lightly, "Really? Thats pretty funny."
I didn’t think she could actually carry me. Not to be mean or anything but i’ve seen her carry 3 bunnies and get winded. She’s just full of surprises today huh.
"Are you ok?" asked Pinkie.
"I should be." I replied.
I got up, walked around and flew around for a little. Everything seemed normal and I felt fine. I examined myself and saw nothing too serious but a few minor cuts, of course Fluttershy tended to them.
“I should be ok, nothing hurts and I feel ok."
"Tough as steel." added Rainbow with a laugh.
"Haha yeah. How long was I out?"
"About 3 hours." answered Fluttershy.
"Really? At least I didn't get a concussion or anything.”
We all laughed and went into the kitchen and sat down. Fluttershy and I brought some food for the others and ate. We chatted about random things and asked how our day was. A simple chat at most.
"So when did you girls get here?"
"We all came here together just to visit. Oh and we just got here. By the time we came in we saw you in the living room knocked out." said Twilight.
"What were you doing anyway?" questioned Rarity.
"Me and Fluttershy were racing."
"What!" yelled everypony surprised.
They all stared at Fluttershy, "She's never raced before, how did you convince her?" said Rainbow.
"I just asked."
They slammed their heads on the table and let out a loud grunt. Me and Fluttershy laughed quietly as our friends made themselves look like idiots.
"So who won?" asked Applejack.
"Neither." I replied.
"Are you going to race again?" asked Twilight.
"I don't think I'll be racing again anytime soon." replied Fluttershy.
"Aww!" whined everypony.
We laughed again but then my head started hurting. It felt like someone driving a nail into my brain with a hammer. It was pounding like crazy and my vision began to double.
"You ok?" said Fluttershy.
"Guess I hit my head or something. Mind using a healing spell Twilight?"
"No problem." said Twilight.
A beam shot out of her horn and hit me and the pain went away.
"Thanks. If only medical stuff in my world was like that."
I was the only that laughed, everypony remained silent. Guess this isn’t something to joke about at the moment.
"Sorry."
"Thats ok. Lets not talk about it till the time comes." said Twilight.
We all nodded our heads and remained quiet for a bit. It’s was kinda awkward to tell you the truth. Nothing to say or think about to say to them.
"So do you want to hang out tomorrow?" asked Rainbow.
"No thanks. I told Fluttershy that I would spend the whole week with her."
"Why's that?" questioned Applejack.
"I’m not sure if she wants to talk about."
"It’s ok." said Fluttershy.
I didn't really want to talk about it but if she says its ok then I'll talk.
"She's been really worried about the plan this whole thing and is scared that I might not be able to come back. So I told her I would spend the whole week with her so just in case I don't come back, she'll at least have happy memories about me."
"Isn't that sweet." said Rarity.
I began blushing again and I hid my face from them. They all laughed and then decided to go home. The rest of the day they didn’t visit us and soon night time came.
Fluttershy and I decided to go to bed since it was a long day. We climb into our bed and went to sleep but for some reason I couldn't sleep. I kept on thinking about the plan and I keep imagining a scenario where I can't go back and i’m stuck forever.
Frustrated I then got out of bed and downstairs to the kitchen. I sat there for while, thinking about the plan. I couldn't stop thinking about it and I started shaking again. I then decided to grab some paper, a quilt and write a letter for Fluttershy just incase I don't make it back.
I'll put this in my satchel that Fluttershy made me. Its funny how even though her talent is with animals she can sew and stitch like Rarity. Once I was finished I climbed back into bed and went to sleep. I'll give her the letter before I leave but I hope I come back to see her and her friends.
Author's Note
I'm sure you're thinking I overused 3 three in this one but i'll see what I can do about it. Hope you're liking this the story. Next part comes Monday. Happy holidays!

Part 4
When the sun came up Fluttershy and I woke up and did the same thing like yesterday. Feed the animals, eat breakfast and just hang out. We decided to go out and hang out with the others today since we were tired of staying home.
We went to Applejack’s and did some apple bucking, then we went to Pinkie's to make some treats. Applejack decided to go with us, so did Pinkie and we made our way towards
Surprisingly she had nothing to do so she joined us and we headed to Twilight's place. We read and talked about random things then we went to Rainbow's house to see if she would want to race.
We came up to her house but she wasn't there then I heard her voice and saw her flying around doing some tricks. I yelled out her name which threw off her concentration and she plummeted to the ground. Luckily she didn't hurt herself too badly and I asked her if she wanted to race.
She dusted herself off and said yes immediately. She seemed pretty excited and told me to gather all of Ponyville and we'll have the best race ever. She said we were going to start from the Everfree Forest and finish at Gasle Gorge.
I posted the posters and we waited at the forest. At first nopony showed up then of course Scootaloo showed up with her fanclub then all of Ponyville. I even saw Derpy and her friend but I couldn't find Fluttershy or the others. Must be waiting at the finish line.
"You ready!" yelled Rainbow.
I readied my wings, "Yeah! Lets do this!"
We prepared ourselves and waited for the siren to go off.
"3....2....1.....GO!" said the siren.
We jetted into the sky and quickly flew out the Everfree Forest and made our way to Ponyville. There I could see ponies cheering us on as we past Town Hall. Rainbow and I were neck and neck but I was slightly falling behind but I was able to keep a steady speed.
We then came to Gastle Gourge where we started going faster. We came up against the cave but we breezed through that easily and avoided the quarae eels with little trouble and got through the thorn trees like nothing. We then came up to the finish line where we went all out and rainboom speed together.
We were so close I couldn't tell who was going to win. We crossed the finish line and literally broke through the wall that was behind it. We went pretty far because we made a cave deep enough we couldn't see the way out but luckily there was only one way out.
"Uh...You think we overdid it?"
"Are you kidding!? That was the best race EVER!" cheered Rainbow.
We laugh and made our way out of the cave. When we came out everypony was silent but when they saw us walk out they went crazy and started cheering for both of us.
Fluttershy and the others came out and congratulated us on the race but nopony knew who won. We decided it was a tie since it was such an awesome race. Nopony argued about it and they just cheered on.
They then literally carried us back all the way back to Ponyville and gave us medals for best flyers. Even though it was just a tie they were so excited it was crazy. Then Scootaloo came up to us and ask for autographs.
She was the most excited out of everypony because her eyes were so big when we gave her the autographs. She then said that she would like to start a fanclub about me and I felt honored.
After all that was over everypony left and went back to their daily lives. Fluttershy and the others came up to us and said congrats again.
"Your were amazing!" applaud Fluttershy.
"Its was so awesome that I couldn't tell who was going to win!" commented Pinkie.
She began hopping around and said a lot of randoms things about the race.
"Truly spectacular!" added Rarity.
"You two are truly the best flyers in all of Equestria!" cheered Twilight.
"Hope your next race will be as exciting as this one!" added Applejack.
We felt so honored that we started blushing with embarrassment. After that was over we all decided to go home. While Fluttershy and I were walking back home Fluttershy was going on about the race and how much fun it must've been.
I've never seen her this happy before, she’s just going on and on about the race and saying how awesome it was. It’s a relief to not think about the plan that’s coming up in 3 days. Once we got back we went to the kitchen and Fluttershy made me some food. I was starving since I was flying my hardest the whole day.
That was literally the best race we ever had. After we ate we went to bed, I was really tired after today's events. We climbed into bed and I quickly fell asleep. Only 3 days until I go back and look for Rainbow's old friend. I just hope he's ok and that I'll be able to come back.
Author's Note
From a boring day to the race of the century for Cerulean and Rainbow Dash. Although they tied they were good spirited about it and Cerulean got a fanclub now. It's a relief to have a day of not worrying about the plan but it's coming up soon. What will happen next, find out on the next part.
Hope you're all liking this.

part 5
Part 5
Today is the day, today is the day we go to Canterlot, talk to Celestia and I go back to my world to find Rainbow's friend. To tell you the truth i’m really nervous about this. I’m pretty sure everypony else is nervous too, especially Fluttershy but they’re not as nervous as I am. I’m the one who's has to go back and find Rainbow's friend but I won't have Celestia with me to take me back. How is this even going to work?
When the sun peeked up Fluttershy and I woke up, ate, feed the animals and went to the train station. Before we left I grabbed my satchel with my note in it. I just hope she won't be too sad to not read it, that’s the last thing I want for her.
We slowly made our way to the train station. Fluttershy had a very worried look on her the whole way there, I don't blame her feeling this worried. This is a very risky thing and it could fail and I'll be stuck in my world but I can’t let Rainbow down. I’m already here so no turning back, if I do then she’ll just cry and cry for who know’s how long.
By the time we got to the trains we were the only ones there. Guess we woke up earlier than the others. We sat near a bench but remained quite.
After a few minutes Fluttershy finally broke the silence, "You scared?" she asked.
I sighed nervously, "You have no idea but I gotta help Rainbow no matter what the cost. Like I said a long time ago, I won't let my friends suffer, no matter what the cost..."
"Yeah I remember... “ she said quietly, ”I just hope you come back brother."
"Me too sis...Me to."
We sat there for about 20 minutes then we saw Twilight come, then Rainbow, then the rest. They all had a gloomy look on them. A few spoke but it was only a, “Hey” here and there. Twilight was the one to finally talk to us.
"How you feeling?" she asked.
"Nervous.” I replied, “You?"
"Same here." she replied back.
"Hey, I haven't seen Spike this whole week. Where is he?"
"Oh he's at Canterlot doing some dragon stuff." answered Twilight.
"H’m that explains it then.” I turned to Rainbow who was looking at the sky, “Is she ok?"
"I imagine she's as nervous as you." said Twilight.
We said nothing after that and I sat there with Fluttershy. I held her tightly and she did the same. After a while the train finally and the train's mare came out.
"All aboard for Canterlot!" yelled the train's mare.
We walked inside and took a seat but nopony said a word. They all had worried look on them and some were staring at me for a bit. I finally worked up the nerve to ask them, "What’s up?"
"We’re just really worried thats all." said Applejack.
"Yeah we just don't want to lose such a good friend." said Pinkie.
"And we don't want to see Fluttershy sad." added Rarity.
"I just hope this works." said Rainbow.
"I hope so too. By the way what’s this person's name?"
"Rob. Rob Cakeran." said Rainbow.
"How am I supposed to convince him that I know you?"
Rainbow thought about it for a moment, then she had a idea. She asked for a paper and quill and wrote a letter and gave it to me. She didn't want me to read, it’s only meant for him.
"How do you know this will work?"
"He'll remember my writing trust me." replied Rainbow.
"Look we're almost to Canterlot." said Pinkie.
We looked out the window and saw Canterlot in the distance. My heart started pounding as we got closer and closer. By the time we departed I was shaking but I tried hide it. Luckily none of them noticed it.
"So are we going into the princess’s castle right now?"
"Yes, I requested her attention and we’re going to have a meeting. We better hurry." answered Twilight.
We quickly made our way to her castle where a royal guard was waiting for us. Surprisingly the guard was Twilight's brother Shining Armor. I didn't even know she had a brother but I still introduced myself and told him I was Fluttershy's brother. Luckily he bought it and he escorted us to Princess Celestia.
When we got to the doors that lead to her room Shining Armor had to go. We opened the door and saw Celestia and Luna standing in front of a circle table. They seemed to be the only ponies in the whole room which was fine by me. We walked in, bowed and all took a seat.
"Why hello everypony.” greeted Celestia, “Now what is it you wanted to talk about?"
"Tell her." said Twilight.
Rainbow nodded her head and stood up, "Remember the man who took care of me when I was in Cerulean’s world?"
Celestia nodded her head and continued to listen.
I stood up and spoke next, "She's been very worried about him and she wants me to go back to my world and check on him."
This seemed to only catch Luna by surprise but Celestia held her own pretty well. It’s really hard to tell how she feels because she shows no emotion at all. Its like looking at a stone face from time to time.
Celestia closed her eyes and thought about it for a second then opened them and spoke, "Alright I'll ready the portal." she said.
"Really?!" said everypony.
"I have often wondered if what I did was the right choice. Leave him behind while we took Rainbow back. I have also worried for him to." said Celestia.
"Alright but how will I get back if you can't come with me?"
She raised her eyebrow at me, "Who said your were going alone?”
"Wait you're coming?”
"Yes I will be accompanying you. Did you think you were going to do this on your own?" questioned Celestia.
"Actually thats what Rainbow wanted."
She turned to Rainbow then back at me, "I see, and how did you think you were going to be able to come back without my power?"
I couldn't think of anything to say back.
"You’re all coming with me. And so will Spike this time." said Celestia.
"Huh? Where is he?" said Twilight.
"Right here." said a voice.
The doors opened and walked in was Spike. He quickly closed the doors and ran toward Twilight and leaped onto her back.
"Everypony ready." said Celestia.
We noded our heads. Celestia's horn began glowing and a portal opened. We all walked into it and we were sent to a open field. I not sure where we were but I hope were in the right place. I also noticed something, i’m a human again!

Dashies Old Friend Returns
Part 6+Epilodge
Part 6
At the moment me and my pony friends stand in the middle of some open field. It kinda reminded me of my old home but i’m sure it's long gone now. How long has it really been since I left this place? A few years or has it been even longer than that.
I looked down at myself and stared at my human hands. So different from hooves, the fingers, the skin everything about it felt different. The rest of my body felt different too of course but...It’s been so long since I was human.
After I had my moment I turn to Celestia, "Why did you changed me back to a human?"
"I thought you would be more comfortable if you were back to your former self." said Celestia.
"I would be if I could stand or walk right."
I was having trouble standing on only twos since I've been a pony for so long. I could stand up but I was all wobbly and I tripped a lot. It’s been WAY too long to remember all this so quickly but it's only for a little that i’ll be like this.
"My apologies." said Celestia.
"Thats alright. You can turn me back once we get back."
"Hey where are we?" questioned Spike.
"We should be in his backyard." answered Celestia.
"Where’s his house?"
"There." replied Rainbow.
She turned me around and a house stood a few feet from me. I’m surprised I didn't noticed it. It’s a somewhat big house but it looks a little run down. Some of the paint is peeling off and it kinda reeks.
"Should we get a move on?" suggested Luna.
"Yeah. Lets go." answered Rainbow.
"Alright then. Mind holding onto my satchel Fluttershy?"
"Sure. Remember the letter." said Fluttershy.
I almost forgot, luckily she reminded me. I took the letter out but left the one for her inside. We walked around till we got to the front door. I knocked and waited for a response. At first there was nothing but then I heard a old man speak.
"What do you want!" yelled the old man.
I was little caught off guard by his tone, "Um...Are you Rob Cakeran?"
"Yeah, so?" he replied bitterly.
"I brought an old friend that wants to see you."
"Look i’m not interested in anything you’re pulling so just go." he yelled.
"Let me try. Open the door dad!" yelled Rainbow.
There was no response at first then the door unlock and out came an old man with gray hairs and everything that made him look old. He was blinking multiple times and looked at all of us. He then stared at Rainbow and a tear slowly slid down his face, then a smile arose.
"I can't believe it...D-dashie?" said the old man quietly.
Rainbow immediately pounced him and began crying, same with her human friend.
"I can't believe it! Your back!" cried Rob.
"I've missed you so much!" cried Rainbow.
"I've missed you to...So very much" sniffled Rob.
We let them have there little reunion then they both stood up but Rob examined me. He looked pretty confused on why another human is here with 8 ponies and purple baby dragon...Now that I say it like that I would be confused.
"Who are you?" questioned Rob.
"I’m Fluttershy's brother."
He raised his eyebrow in confusiong, "But you're human." he said.
"In their world i’m her brother."
That seemed to confuse him even more.
"Give him the letter. It'll explain who you are." said Rainbow.
I gave him the letter and he read it.
Once he was done he stared at me with even more confusion, "How did you even go to their world."
"Celestia let me come with Fluttershy. She saw that I would do anything to protect her and her friends. Even if it meant it would cost my life."
He seemed surprised by my compassion for them but then again everyone is always surprised that. He then turned to Celestia with a combination of surprise and disappointment on his face. Celestia looked away shamefully and stared out the window.
Rainbow soon interrupted them, "Before this goes any further. How's it been since I left?"
Rob sighed and lowered his head, "Not good to tell you the truth. I know I promised myself and to you that I would live my life to the fullest but things haven't really gone too well."
"How bad is it?" asked Rainbow.
"Bad. I’m broke. Have no food or family and I don't know what to do." muttered Rob.
"Would you like to come back with us?" ask Celestia
He turned to her with wide eyes, "C-can I?"
"I know what I did now was the wrong choice. If you wish so. I will let you come back with Rainbow to PonyVille." said Celestia.
"What do you say dad? Do you wanna come back with us and live your lifes dream?" asked Rainbow.
It took him little to no time to answer that question, "Yes, I want to come but don't call me dad. Call me Cakeran. So no pony will get confused when they ask."
"Seems to fit oh and call me Cerulean Protector or Cerulean once we get back."
"Alright but before we go back let me do something first.” said Cakeran.
“Ok but first, you two stand next to each other." said Celestia.
Cakeran and I walked next to each other and Celestia's horn began glowing. Then a familiar orb appeared and started circling us. Eventually I was back to my pegasis form but Cakeran was only made younger.
"My apologies." said Celestia.
Her glowed again and another orb appeared and started circling around Cakeran and sped up. Eventually he too was a pegasus with black hair, wings, and a cutie mark with wings and a sun shining behind it.
"How do I look?" he asked.
"Like a pegasus...Cakeran." smiled Rainbow.
Tears of happiness began rolling down her face and she quickly hugged him. It was a touching moment for them.
"Reminds of when you were first turned into one." said Fluttershy.
"Yeah it does. By the way I wrote this letter for you. I was going to give to you before we left but I figured I'd give it to you now."
"What kind of letter is it?" askedFluttershy.
"A farewell letter. Since I thought I was going alone I thought I would make this just incase I didn't make it back."
I gave her the letter and she read it. "What does it say Fluttershy." asked Twilight.
"I'll read it."
Fluttershy gave me the letter and I read it to everypony, "Dear Fluttershy, my sister. I don't know if I'll make it back but just incase I don't I wanted to write this so you'll remember me. The time I've spent here is priceless. Nothing could ever top the moments I shared with you. From the shy, scared pony I found in the woods long ago, to the brave pony I know today. I am honored to call you sister and very lucky to even be here with you. You truly made my life better and I can't thank you enough. I don't want you to cry for me because I won’t be there for you but you must then let it out. If I don't make it back I'll always think about you and I'll try to find a way back no matter what. So with my final words, I love you Fluttershy aka the best sister I ever had. Cerulean Protector, your brother."
After I was done everypony was in tears including Fluttershy.
"You two must really have a strong bond." said Cakeran.
I smiled happily, "I would protect her and her friends no matter what. Including you. You’re part of our family now."
"Really?" said Cakeran.
I nodded my head and he began to cry a little.
"Don't get all sappy now Cakeran!" said Rainbow.
“Coming from the mare who just cried over a letter not meant for her.” chuckled Cakeren.
“It’s not tears! I just have dust in my eye.” argued Rainbow.
We all laugh for a bit then Celestia opened the portal that went back to PonyVille.
"Wait! I forgot something." said Cakeran.
He ran up stairs and brought a box down with him.
"What’s inside the box?"
"A picture book. It has pictures of Rainbow when she was with me." he replied.
“You kept that all these years?” questioned Rainbow.
“Yes, it was the only thing that made me kept trying in this world.” said Cakeran.
"Can we look at them once we get back?"
He nodded his head and we walked into the portal where we were brought back to the meeting room we were in.
"I can't believe i’m actually here." said Cakeran.
"Well believe it!" said Rainbow.
"You should teach him how to fly. Maybe he'll be able to do a sonic rainboom like us."
"Rainbow's the only one to a sonic rainboom." said Cakeran.
A smirk formed on my face, "Oh really...Lets show him Rainbow."
We went outside and flew up as high as we could and dove down and did a rainboom. When we came down his jaw dropped open, well now he believes me.
"H-how were you able..." he was speechless and dumbfounded.
I gestured to Rainbow "She taught me how."
He didn’t respond in anyway, just had his jaw hanging low.
"I think we blew his mind away." chuckled Rainbow.
I laughed, "You think?"
We all laughed but Cakeran still remained speechless for about another minute or two. After that we headed to the train station and went back to Ponyville. We all took a seat and remained quiet for a bit. I then broke the silence with a question.
"Where are you going to live at Cakeran?”
"I think I might build a house that’s near Rainbow's, so she can visit me whenever and we can train together." replied Cakeran.
"Sounds good." said Rainbow happily.
"Good luck. She's a tough coach but don't worry, she'll go easy on you for the first few weeks."
"Oh we should celebrate when we get home!" suggested Pinkie.
"Sounds good." replied Cakeran.
"Would you mind if I did research on you. I did some on Cerulean but I ran out of questions to ask him." asked Twilight.
"Uh sure. I guess." said Cakeran awkwardly.
"Hey I can teach you the history of dragons like I did with Cerulean." said Spike.
"You wanna help us with the apples at my apple farm?" asked Applejack.
"Ooo I can make even more outfits for you and for everypony!" said Rarity excitedly.
I laughed because the same thing happened to me when I was first got here. They’re all asking the same thing they asked me 5 years ago and it’s kinda weird. Like deja vu.
"Can we just focus on the party for now? I promise to spend time with all of you but I gotta build a house first." said Cakeran.
"Don't worry we'll all help you on that."
"I don't want to be a bother." said Cakeran.
"It’s no trouble. Right everypony?"
"Right!" said everypony.
When we got back we made our way to SugarCube Corner and had some treats. After that was over we went to Rainbow's house and built a house under hers. By the time we were done it was already midnight and we decided to go home. While Fluttershy and I were walking home I noticed she was happier than usual.
"What’s up?"
"I’m just really happy that you’re still here." smiled Fluttershy. "
“Of course i’m still here. I made a Pinkie promise remember?"
Her smile grew bigger and she hugged me.
"I’m glad you’re still here Cerulean." said Fluttershy.
"I’m glad to Fluttershy. I should've made you some pasta before we came back."
We laughed quietly and continued walking. When we got home we immediately went to bed. I’m glad Rainbow doesn't have to worry about Cakeran anymore. I just hope she won't be too hard on him when the training starts. At least he's living his dream, being here with Rainbow Dash, the #1 flyer in all of Equestria.
The End
Epilogue
Its been almost a year since we brought Cakeran with us and he seems way happier than he was back at his world. He can fly now but sadly he can't fly as fast as us but he's still training. I have hope for him that he'll be able to fly like us and do rainbooms like us to.
Rainbow has seemed happier ever since Cakeran came back with us. We still race each other and like always she wins but I still manage to win a lot more than I was able to before. Now every time we race all of Ponyville comes and watches us.
Tomorrow we’re supposed to race again, we're going to start at the Everfree Forest again but finish at Canterlot. Its going to be long race but its going to be a lot of fun.
The fanclub that Scootaloo created for me has grown and now they have shirts, flags, and hats with my main on it just like with Rainbow's fanclub. I do hope they don't start a fight where there debating who's the best.
I’m still here with Fluttershy and i’m glad i’m still here with her. That day I literally thought I wasn't going to make it back. Fluttershy still kept the letter I wrote her and she framed it for some reason. All in all i’m just glad everything worked out in the end. Well I gotta go, I gotta get ready for the race tomorrow, see you later!
