Colgate and her co-workers were walking towards her house when they saw Rainbow Dash walking around with her head hung low. Whooves wanted to know why she was so sad so he asked, "Rainbow Dash, what is wrong?"

Rainbow was a bit irritated. She snapped, "Why do you care? Just leave me alone."

Colgate interrupted, "Rainbow, I have seen a few races here lately and I noticed that Twilight has been beating you. Is that why you have your head hung so low?"

Rainbow screamed, "She has and I don't know how she has been doing it and I really don't know how the hay her wings got so big. They were just half that size a year ago."

Colgate said, "Rainbow, come with me to my house. The five of us have discovered something that might explain why her wings have become so muscular."

Rainbow grunted but followed the five. When they got there they stomped the snow off their hooves and headed inside. Once they were inside Rainbow asked, "Ok, what is this you know about Twilight and her wings?"

Whooves asked, "Rainbow, have you ever heard of Oxabolone?"

Having been involved in racing for decades, Rainbow knew a lot about the Equestrian Racing Federation and the substances that they have banned. She said, "Yeah, I know about it. It is a performance enhancing drug that was banned from racing nearly a hundred years ago. What does that have to do with Twilight and her wings?"

Whooves replied, "Well Twilight came to see me ten days ago. I decided to run some tests on her. Some were normal tests, such as cholesterol tests and kidney function tests but I also ordered the lab in Manehattan to run a drug test on her."

Rainbow interrupted, "Wait a minute, she tested positive for Oxabolone didn't she?"

Whooves replied, "Yep, she did. I'm not sure how long she has been taking it but I have a feeling it has been for quite some time."

Rainbow at first was giddy with excitement. She said, "Ohmygosh, ohmygosh, ohmygosh! I haven't lost my edge! I still am the best flyer in Equestria after all!" Her attitude went from joy to rage as she shouted, "But now everypony thinks she is the best flyer when she is nothing more than a cheater! Ugh, what I wouldn't do to punish her for this, to expose her for the fraud she is!"

Colgate, with a calm look on her face, asked, "So Rainbow, what measures would you go to in punishing her if you could get away with it?"

Rainbow had a strange feeling about what was going on but decided to tell them anyway. She replied, "Well if I could get away with it I would want to cut those wings off of her! I would love to make her suffer."

Colgate looked at the rest of the ponies in her home and asked, "So everypony, we know that Twilight thinks she is above taking care of her teeth, eats the worst foods possible and takes steroids. What do you think would be the best way to punish the prissy princess?"

Rainbow began to laugh, "She was my friend but no longer. What would I like to do? I would love it if there was some sort of secret underground place we could take her to and torture her to death!"

Colgate smiled when she heard this. She said, "Alright everypony, I know things that could make Rainbow's desires come true BUT all of you must swear complete and absolute loyalty to me and no other."

Twinkleshine asked, "And what if we don't?"

Colgate's eyes turned a darker blue and she replied, "If you don't, you will suffer the same fate I have planned for Twilight and the Cakes."

Rainbow asked, "Why do you want to punish the Cake Family? They haven't done anything wrong to you?"

Colgate laughed, "They are the ones who are responsible for Twilight's poor oral health and terrible physical health. Why do you ask? They are responsible because they are the ones who are making those fried daffodils and fried cupcakes for Twilight and nopony else."

Rainbow replied, "Well that stuff will kill her eventually so why would that be anything to punish them for?"

Whooves said, "Remember Rainbow, things like that can't KILL an Alicorn and also remember how she used steroids to beat you in those races."

Rainbow replied, "Yes I do." They all looked at Colgate and Rainbow continued, "Colgate, just from the way you have been talking you know about something that would aid us in punishing Twilight."

Colgate nodded and said, "Follow me."

Colgate led them into her kitchen and told them to wait there while she got something. She headed into her bedroom and grabbed the papers she stored in there. She laid them down on her table and said, "Take a look at these. I know of a place that nopony else except you six now know about."

Rainbow asked, "So is this where you want to drag Twilight and the Cakes out to?"

Colgate replied, "Yes it is BUT I think that we all need to make a little trip to get acquainted with the place."

While Colgate had written down many things and drew numerous diagrams of the interior of the bunker, she never wrote down the spells to get in there. She had a good enough memory that she could recite those upon demand. She also believed that some things would be best kept hidden from her co-workers in the event that she needed to trap them in the bunker or keep them out.

Amethyst asked, "So Colgate, when do you want us to make this trip?"

Colgate replied, "The sooner the better. New Years is only a few days away. What do you say that we take a little trip for the holiday?"

Everypony started cheering as the idea of a trip sounded exciting and the fact that soon they would be able to wipe out those they viewed as problem ponies. Colgate asked, "Is there anypony here who can't afford the train ticket to Dodge Junction? If so, raise your hoof."

Nopony raised their hooves. Colgate continued, "Alright, meet me at the train station tomorrow morning at 0700 and we will head out. The hike to the bunker should take around four hours and then we head inside and learn that place inside and out."

Everypony agreed to the plan and they all headed home. Colgate was confident that nopony would dare share her plans as they all had the same mission. She knew that if they did that she would either have to flee the country or destroy her diagrams and simply claim that they are a bunch of lying fools simply trying to get her into trouble.
