Rainbow Dash's Flight Journal
May 18th: A New Evil
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAccording to Rarity, Twilight has been publishing my flight journal entries to some kind of newspaper in Canterlot, as to basically chronicle my daily life for all of Equestria to read... I suppose it makes sense, considering how awesome my life is. I just hope you're all reading this for the epic daily adventures of yours truly, rather than the more... intimate stuff. Oh, and Twilight? Since you're obviously gonna be the first to read this, I just wanted to again apologise for the prank I did on you the other day. I went too far, and I promise to never use any kind of toy in any of my future pranks... Well, at least not when pranking you, or when your books are involved. Heh. (Unless you want me to)
So anyways, today started out like any other. At least, it did for the most part. I mean, I woke up, stretched out my wings, and was about to grab a bowl to make some cereal, when my new big black friend caught my eye. It was still slightly wet from last night, and was sitting on the floor of my cloud home. "Heh, I guess I should probably wash this thing" I spoke out loud, which is when I noticed that Tank, my pet turtle, was sound asleep on a pillow that had fallen off of my bed and onto the floor. "Rainbow, Tank is a tortoise, not a turtle" I heard Fluttershy say in my head. I couldn't help but to let a tiny grin spread across my face after realising that I made that mistake again. Seriously, I just don't see the difference!
Anyways, I was preparing to wash the dildo, which was still glistening with my fluids, when I started to remember last nights events. The pain I felt, mixed in with the pleasure. I was completely vulnerable to Twilight's will and anger, helpless and weak. I've never felt so open before in my life, and honestly? It felt good. As in, really freaking good! I wanted to feel like that again, and soon. While I gotta admit, simply replaying the thought in my head made my insides twitch, and I felt a warm sensation throughout my body. However, I had no time to do anything about my urges, and had to feed Tank and myself before heading out to Ponyville to meet up with my friends. Though, I was tempted to just shove this thing right back inside of me, and moan like a mare in heat, forgetting about all of my responsibilities and just letting myself go. "There's always later" I said with a sigh before continuing on, finishing my morning ritual and heading out the door and soaring down into Ponyville.
The flight to Ponyville was rather dull, the ache inside of me still present, corrupting most of my thoughts while I flew almost subconsciously to the streets below. When I was just above the rooftops, I spotted a familiar face looking up at me, waving at me with a big toothy grin spread across her orange filly face. Scootaloo was trying to get my attention, probably so she could try to impress me with a new trick on her scooter. She was my number one fan after all, and I honestly really liked her. She reminded me of myself when I was her age. Spunky, energetic and always getting into trouble, while still remaining loyal to her two best friends. I'd bet she would even risk her own life to save them, though I hope she'll never have to.
On my way down to greet her, I decided to perform some cool tricks just for her private viewing. I did a few corkscrew twists, loops and wing maneuvers, and finished up with an awesome upside down landing, using my wings as legs. I purposely landed facing away from her, allowing my rainbow tail to dangle, giving her a clear view of my marehood, before flipping myself into the air and doing a 180 spin and landing perfectly on my hooves. She had a look of embarrassment in her eyes, but that was quickly replaced by excitement after she noticed me staring directly at her.
"Wow! Rainbow, that was AMAZING!" Scootaloo yelled at the top of her lungs. "Glad you enjoyed it, Scoot! So, how was the view?" I asked slyly, and chuckled by her uncharastically shy response. "Uh, it was.. Well, your tail kinda.." She started to say with her eyes focused on the ground, before I interrupted. "Heh, it's alright, Scoot. So, don't you have to go to school or something?" I asked her, purposely trying to change the subject.
Honestly, I have no idea why I did that. With the whole prank thing, and the dirty thoughts I had while flying down, my perversion kinda took over for a sec. I just couldn't control myself, and may have just traumatized Scootaloo for life. To my surprise, and relief, she didn't seem to be taken back by what she just witnessed, and answered my question with that usual sense of spunk back in her little filly voice. "Oh, school? Yea, I kinda gotta be there soon, but then I saw you, and figured, what the hay! I'll be a few minutes late, but will get to talk with one of the coolest ponies around!" She said with a smile that reminded me a lot of Pinkie Pie, given how huge it was. However, that smile soon turned into a playful grin. What she said next, and the way she said it, made my gut sink a little. "Besides, I got to see you perform a new trick, and could practically feel the heat of your rainbow"
I couldn't believe my ears! That little filly just teased me! Scootaloo, the tomcolt pegasus that looks up to me as an idol, just showed me a darker side to her usually peppy personality. If not for her age, I'd likely have my hooves all over her and make her scream my name in pleasure. "Gah, why am I thinking like this?" I thought loudly to myself. "This isn't right!"
Trying to change the subject again, I politely asked Scoot to head to class, and gave her a mini lecture about the importance of school, and even threw in a joke about flight school. "Just be thankful you're not yet old enough to attend flight school! If you fail your final flight exam, you'll be put into a giant machine and get turned into a rainbow!" While Scootaloo giggled at this idea, I cringed at the thought. Even though it was nothing more than a fictional concept written by some famous colt a few years ago, the idea seemed very unnerving. There's just so much truth thrown into that story, it makes me sick to actually think that some of it may be true..
“But a rainbow's easy once you get to know it
With the help of the magic of a pegasus device”
While deep in thought, Scoot decided to make a joke of her own. "Hehe, okay Twilight Dash! Thanks for the lecture, and the silly story. I think I'll head to class now. Was cool seeing you again, Rainbow!" And with that, Scootaloo was off, leaving me alone with my thoughts.
My mind was still reeling from the possibility that the 'rainbow factory' could be a real thing. I mean, it obviously is, but the idea of rainbows being made out of young fillies and colts? That's just... unthinkable! Sure, there really is a giant section in the weather factory that is hidden away from the public. Even I don't have clearance to enter, and just like the story says, it really is hidden behind darker electric clouds... What's worse, no pony truly knows just how rainbows are made! "Uh, Rainbow? Are you okay?"
Twilight interrupted my thought, a worried expression on her face. "Uh, yea. Was just thinking about something, Twi. So, uh, just how long have you been standing there for?" I asked nervously, making sure she didn't see the little trick I performed for Scootaloo. Sadly, my hopes were tossed out of the window fairly quickly. "Rainbow, I saw you and Scootaloo talking a few moments ago. I also saw what you did in front of her. That was very inappropriate, even for you." She said sternly. I could have sworn I heard a bit of lust in her voice as well, though I was probably just imagining it. "Are you sure you're okay?"
"Yea Twi, I'm fine. Really. Just had a weird chat with Scoot, and ended up telling her a story I read one time that got me thinking. That's all, nothing to worry about" I stated honestly, hoping that she would drop the subject right then and there. "Oh, well if you're sure you're fine, I suppose I won't push. Though Rainbow, do you think we could maybe talk later? About the other night?"
The memories of my prank gone wrong flooded my mind, while a nervous heat rampaged throughout my body. I really didn't want to talk about that with anypony, let alone with Twilight. Though, I suppose talking to her about it was unavoidable, and I may as well get this over with as soon as possible. "Sure, what time do you want to, uh.. talk?" I said with hesitation. "How about at noon? We could have lunch together at my place."
Gah, eating lunch together at the scene of the crime? Not exactly looking forward to that, but what choice did I have? This was Twilight, one of my best friends in the world. I'm loyal to our friendship, and could never turn her down, no matter how embarrassing or painful the outcome, I'll be there for her till the very end.
"Fine, consider it a date! I'll see you then, Twi!" I said with a toothy grin, only for Twilight to blush at my words. Heh, she really can be quite cute at times. "Maybe, just maybe..." No! Can't think like that again, not about her! That's how I got in this mess in the first place. Well, not entirely that specific reason, but you know what I mean.
"Uh, right. See you then, Rainbow." She said while trotting away from me at a steady pace, leaving me alone again in the middle of Ponyville.
"Gah, what the hay am I gonna do now? It's only ten, so I've got two hours to kill!" I muttered to myself. "I'm pretty sure pranks are out of the question, and I'm not really interested in becoming one of Rarity's mannequins again. So, that leaves Applejack and Fluttershy." Other ponies had begun to stare at me, likely thinking I had a couple of clouds loose in my head. I mean, I was kinda talking to myself while standing in the middle of the street. However, before I was able to give them a proper piece of my mind, I noticed Derpy Hooves trotting towards me.
"Hey Rainbow! I've got a letter for you!" Derpy spoke enthusiastically while searching through her satchel of letters. "Ah! Found it!"
Derpy then gave me a dark blue envelope with an unusual emblem on the wax seal. "I've never seen that design before, any idea who it's from?" I asked curiously. Derpy seemed to get unusually sad by my question, while both of her eyes focused on the envelope intently. "Not a clue. It just arrived at the post office, and had no return address." Her eyes 'derped' up again, one focusing on me, the other still on the blue envelope.
"Well, whoever it's from, it looks important. Thanks for delivering it to me, Derpy!" I said while smiling at her. She really was a nice mare, even if she was a bit of a klutz at times. "You're welcome, Rainbow!"
Just as she was about to turn and fly away, she looked back at me. "Say, do you happen to have a muffin on you?" She asked with one of the most serious expressions ever, both of her eyes scanning me intensely. I simply shook my head no as my response. "Dang, I could really use a blueberry and banana muffin." She then flew off without saying another word. "That mare must have a muffin for a brain" I chuckled at the thought, before remembering that I had a letter to open.
Now, since I'm a pegasus, opening letters wasn't exactly an easy task. So, I decided to head on over to Twilight's place, knowing that she had at least a thousand letter openers. I honestly never understood why she had so many, as she always just used her magic to open them. But whatever. Hopefully she won't mind me dropping by earlier than planned.
The flight to Twilight's library was uneventful, and I managed to get there in under 15 seconds. However, before I was able to knock on her door, I was tackled to the ground by two large stallions from the Royal Guard. At least, I thought it was the Royal Guard, until I noticed that their armor was a pale shade of blue, and had unusual markings all over. The one mark that caught my eye was of a large red snake circling around a dark blue crescent moon. The moon itself seemed to sparkle, as if it had somehow trapped a dozen stars within its' nightly grasp.
"Get the BUCK off of me, you pervert!" I screamed, hoping that Twilight would come out to see what all of the commotion was about, and rescue me. By now, the two overpowering stallions were searching every corner of my body. "Where the buck is it, you filthy cloud bucker!?" The jerk closest to me roared. "Yeah, we know you have it! So just give it up, or we'll use additional force!" The other stallion yelled, a smirk of pure evil spread across his face.
"TWILIGHT, HELP ME!" I screamed as loud as my lungs could handle, and fortunately, this time it worked. Twilight came running out of her library, looking for the source of the scream. The two stallions were quickly levitated off of me, a purple glow covering their bodies. However, before either of us could do anything further, the stallions vanished in a puff of black, red and blue smoke.
We entered the library, Twilight calling out to Spike to organize an urgent meeting with the other element holders. Once we were both alone, Twilight started to look me over, making sure I hadn't been harmed in any real way. Thankfully, the only injury was a minor scrape just below my left wing, though my ego did take a fairly big hit.
It didn't take long for everypony to arrive, startled and fearful expressions on their faces. Twilight soon spoke up with an urgency in her voice. "Thank you all for coming. As Spike has likely already told you, Rainbow Dash was attacked." This earned a few gasps from the other ponies in the room, while Pinkie Pie visibly deflated. All eyes were now on me, which just made me feel even more ashamed that I was unable to handle myself in a fight. Sure, I was outnumbered, and they were far bigger than me, but I am still me. I'm not a pony that can easily be taken down, and yet, those two flank buckers had me pinned. I felt helpless... and not in a good way.
"Well, who do you reckon attacked 'er?" Asked Applejack.
"That's the problem, I have no idea. I've never seen guard uniforms like that before." Twilight answered before directing her gaze to me. "Rainbow, do you know why they attacked you?"
I began to shake my head, before remembering that I had received a blue letter from Derpy a couple of minutes before they attacked me.
"I think it might have something to do with this" I said while taking out the blue envelope. Twilight quickly took hold of it with her magic, levitating it towards her for a better view.
"Hmm, what a peculiar seal. Rainbow, do you know who sent it?" Twilight asked me, eyes still scanning the unopened letter.
"No, Derpy said there was no return address. I don't even know why I received it!" I answered honestly, though now my curiosity was really taking over. "Think we should open it?"
The room fell silent, as all eyes in the room cycled between Twilight and the levitating letter. Some, namely Pinkie, in anticipation, while the others showing slight fear. Soon enough, Twilight opened the envelope, while making sure to keep the wax seal in tact. She set the envelope carefully to the side, and unfolded the letter within, reading it out loud for us all to hear.
"Dear recipient, you do not know me, and if you are reading this, it means I am dead." Twilight paused for a moment, while audible gasps filled the room. She continued. "While this may be rather hard to believe, you have within you a very powerful element, which is why my letter was sent to you, and you alone. You represent the Element of Loyalty, which right now is the most important element in existence. Your world is about to be destroyed by a force stronger than anything of known origin, and only you have the power to stop it. Hopefully by now, you've already met the other element holders, and have gained enough knowledge about the Elements to use them properly. However, if you haven't, then I fear there is no salvation for your world, and you should dispose of this letter immediately.
--
Alright, since you decided to keep reading, I'll simply assume that you are aware of your powers. As you should already know, there was once an entity called Nightmare Moon, which you and the other elements were destined to defeat. By now, you should have already fought against her, and won. There is also Discord, Queen Chrysalis and King Sombra. You, the fellow elements, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, must combine your powers and work together with the evils of your past, to form an unlikely alliance against the Venom of the Night Sky. Without your combined power, the Venom will be unstoppable, and will infect each and every living creature in Equestria."
Twilight stopped reading, seemingly in disbelief that such an evil could exist. An evil more powerful than Celestia and Luna? More powerful than the elements? "There's no bucking way that something like that is possible!" I screamed, startling everypony in the room by breaking the silence.
It was Twilight's turn to speak up. "Spike! We need to write an urgent letter to the princess!" She called out, only for Spike to suddenly appear out of pretty much nowhere, paper and quill already prepared. Twilight then began to dictate her letter, while Spike promptly wrote it all down.
"Dear Princess Celestia, we have an urgent matter to discuss with you that may involve the fate of Equestria itself. We need to see you right away.
Your faithful student;
-Twilight Sparkle."
"Okay, send it, Spike"
"Uh, you sure, Twilight? It's kind of short" Spike retorted, though Twilight simply gave him what I can only assume is her version of the stare, leaving Spike at a loss for words. He soon inhaled deeply, and blew a puff of green fire onto the letter, sending it to its intended destination.
No more than 30 seconds later, Spike belched out a new letter, which Twilight promptly took in her magical grasp. She began to read the letter out loud.
"Twilight, it is Luna writing. Sister is currently preoccupied with an important royal duty, and was unable to write Herself. As for your urgent matter, I have not been made aware of anything that could threaten Equestria. How certain are you of this evil?
'Alright guard, send it! Wait, no, don't write that!'"
After she finished reading the letter, we all exploded into laughter by the last sentence. It was like everything bad had just melted away by the uncontrollable laughter in the room.
"Ah sure hope that guard survived" Joked Applejack.
"Yea, poor guy probably didn't even know what hit him!" I cracked.
After everything died down, Twilight asked Spike to write another letter. "Okay, ready!" He said obediently, having learned his lesson to never question Twilight, especially when it came to letters and books.
"Dear Princess Luna. Thank you for your quick response. Unfortunately, this evil appears to be very real, and is called the Venom of the Night Sky. Rainbow Dash received a mysterious letter, and was later attacked in front of my library simply for having it in her possession. The two stallions that attacked her were pegasi, but appeared to be able to use some form of dark magic. They also looked similar to the Royal Guard. I'd rather not explain everything in a letter, so could we please meet?
Your faithful student;
-Twilight Sparkle.
p.s. don't harm that royal guard. His mistake really cheered us up."
And, once again, a response was received within a minute of sending.
"Twilight, we will be there at 8:00 tomorrow morning.
As for the guard, no harm came to him. Though he's no longer as high a rank as he was five minutes ago. Also, while the new guard is writing this down, he has a very worried expression on his face, making sure to not make the same mistake as his former captain. It is truly quite funny."
"Well, that letter was short and sweet" I said with a frown. Seriously, she didn't even comment on the Venom, or me getting attacked? I get that it's Luna, but come on! If it was Celestria writing, she would have had soooo much more to say!
"So, what do we do now, Twilight?" Asked Rarity, while the others nodded, agreeing to the question.
"I suppose we just have to wait until tomorrow morning. Since I have the letter, I doubt any of you will be attacked by those-" I interrupted. "Stupid bucking perverted jerks!" Twilight looked at me with a small frown, before continuing. "Anyways, I don't believe any of you are in any real danger. So, go home and rest. We've got a big day ahead of us."
With that, we all disbanded silently out of the library. While I'm sure a few of us wanted to ask further questions, we figured it was best to just wait it out. Twilight did have a point after all, they seemed to only want the letter, though that didn't make any of us feel very safe.
I suppose I'll end this entry now, as nothing else happened today. I basically just flew around for a couple of hours, practicing some new tricks, before heading home and going to bed.
Unfortunately, I never did get the time to use my big black pleasurable friend, as my mind just wasn't feeling it. Getting attacked and learning that Equestria might be in danger kinda does that to a mare... Though, come to think of it, I did think of Twilight once or twice that night , but never really went too far with my thoughts.
-Rainbow Dash.
