Warning Signs

Rainbow Dash's life was complete, she had an adopted daughter and a loving husband. Life was good. she swooped down to her cloud home and landed with a slight bounce on the porch. Rainbow kicked open the door and slowly walked in, an orange blur ran up an tackled hr to the floor.

Rainbow laughed, "Slow down kid!" Scootaloo sheepishly smiled and hopped off. Rainbow stood up and asked,"So how was school Scoots?"

Scootaloo sighed, "It was terrible! we were learning about cutie marks again and Diamond Tiara was bugging and making fun of me the whole time! And at lunch i punched her because she was saying that I would never make the Wonderbolts and i would never get my cutie mark!" she lay down on one of the couches and cutrled up into a ball.

Rainbow sighed, "Its cool Scoots, i can understand why you would want to punch her. I was bullied all through my childhood and even in high school. Does Cheerlie want me and Soarin to come in tomorrow to talk with her?" scootaloo nodded and sat up. "C'mon Scoots cheer up! were not gonna punish you."

"Really?? My father would have punished me no matter what..." Scootaloo responded.

"We would never do that!" Rainbow leaned in and whispered, "But if you ate Soarin's pie... it was nice knowing you!" They both laughed together.

Soarin walked through the door and stopped,"Did I miss something?" He put his flight goggles on the coat rack and walked into the living room. he sat down next to Dash and smiled.

"We have to see Cheerilee tomorrow cos Scoots punched Diamond Tiara, she was mocking scoots about not having a cutie mark." Soarin sighed and nodded.

He looked to Scootaloo and saw that she was shaking in fear of a punishment. Soarin got up and placed a wing over her, "Don't worry about it Scoots, thats tomorrow not today! so lets enjoy it and eat some pie!" He walked into the kitchen and took out a pie from the fridge.

Rainbow nodded, "Soarin's right Scoots, relax we are not going to punish you! C'mon" She smiled at the filly and got up. Rainbow walked into the kitchen and grabbed some plates and a knife out.

She reached over and grabbed the pie just before Soarin bit into it. She cut the pie up and plated it before she gave a slice to Soarin and Scootaloo. "Dig in guys!" They both nodded and dug in. Rainbow laughed before digging in herself.

After they were finished Rainbow yawned, "Guys I'm heading off to bed, it was a long day at the Cloud Factory." she hugged Scootaloo, kissed Soarin and headed up the stairs to her bedroom on the 4th floor.

Rainbow flopped on the bed and fell asleep in seconds. Soarin smiled as he cleaned up the plates and directed scootaloo upsairs to her bedroom. He smiled to Scootaloo, "Good night Scoots, don't forget to brush your teeth." He hugged her and headed up to his bed where his wife was peacefully sleeping.

He also flopped down on the bed and drifted into sleep.

the next morning -

Rainbow woke up to someone knocking on the front door. She rubbed the sleep out of her eyes and groggily made her way down stairs to the door. The knocking continued and rainbow called out, "Just a second!!" Rainbow opened the door to find Derpy waiting her mail.

"Morning Dash! Your mail!" Derpy cheerfully handed over her mail and bowed. Dash smiled and quickly grabbed her a muffin.

Rainbow put it into a bag and gave it too Derpy, "Here ha go Derpy! Have a good day." She tossed the bag over and Derpy gleefully caught it and zoomed off.

Rainbow smiled as she closed the door and looked through her mail. She muttered out loud, "Bills, bills, Soarins fan mail, letter from Twilight, more bills- wait! Letter from Twi?!" Rainbow chucked the mail on the couch and eagerly opened the letter from Twilight.

Rainbow hadn't heard from Twilight in ages! She was currently at Canterlot Castle with the other Princesses disgusing stuff about Equestria.

The letter said: Dear Rainbow,

How is everything going in Ponyville? Everything is fine here, we are disgusing what to do with Cloudsdale at the moment. It's interesting learning about their history and how it was once ruled by a Royal Family. You probably know that but still! So fascinating! Anyway I'll be back in a week at the most, I can't wait too see you guys again!

P.s talk too Scootaloo about punching Diamond Tiara, I got a letter yesterday.

Can't wait too see you guys again! From Twilight.

Rainbow smiled at the letter but also a bit creeped out how she knew about Scooaloo's issue with Diamond Tiara. She yawned and put the letter down before heading back up too bed.

at Canterlot Castle -

A purple mare with bouncy dark mane with sparkles in it suddenly opened her eyes and got up. She was a tall mare with rainbow coloured eyes and a six pointed rainbow star with wings. She had no time to think as she burst out of her quarters and down a hallway to the throne room. The mare stopped at the entrance and looked at the guards.

They nodded and opened the doors letting her through. As soon as the doors opened she ran over to the table in the centre of the room where the Princesses were talking. She stopped at the end of the table and panted in exhaustion.

Celestia looked over to the mare and recognised her. Celestia knew the only times the mare came out was for food, visions and the toilet. She curiously asked, "What's wrong?"

The mare stood up and swallowed, "I-I saw a vision of a dragon flying over the western mountains and rampaging through the Everfree! If we don't stop it the dragon will Destroy Ponyville and Cloudsdale!!" The mare sat down panacing about the future and all of the destruction to come.

Cadence got up and walked over to the distraught mare. She sat down and put a wing over her. Twilight looked at the other princesses and wondering what was going on.

Twilight cleared her throat getting everyone's attention and asked, "I don't know about everyone else but what the hay is going on?!"

Celestia looked to Luna who nodded in agreement. She sighed and replied, "Twilight this mare is Spectrum Destiny Princess of Destinies and Cloudsdale."

Twilight looked at Celestia in disbelief, "She can't be the Princess of Cloudsdale! There are no surviving members of the Royal Family! They were all killed in a fire! This isn't possible-" Luna put a hoof over her muzzle to silence her.

"Twilight it is possible, Spectrum was saved by her mother in the fire but sadly she couldn't save herself. Spectrum please remove your shoes." Luna replied.

Spectrum nodded and stood up. She slid off her shoes and a blue tipped purple horn appeared on her forehead, her mane and tail started flowing, stars replaced the sparkles in her mane and tail.

Twilight sat there with her jaw hanging wide open.

Celestia chuckled at Twilights reaction but her smile quickly turned into a frown. Celestia got up and stood next to Spectrum, "Twilight if Spectrum's vision was correct then we in deep trouble!"
