Rainbow Dash's Adventures Through Oz
02 - The End of the East
Previous ChapterRainbow Dash and Scootaloo looked at the pony. Rainbow noticed the pony had a mane of a king or queen and a flame in its eyes along with fangs. "S-s-sombra..." she said softly.
"Sombra? That's the name of the Wicked Witch of the East! HE'S... GONE..." Scootaloo cheered and told everypony else in her area. Soon ponies that looked like Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Cheerilee, Lyra Heartstrings, and Bon Bon. They all went over to Rainbow Dash and congratulated her all over the place. Rainbow Dash wasn't sure on what was going on. "Uh, can somepony tell me what's going on?"
"I can," said a voice.
"Who are you? Show yourself!" A pony who looked exactly like Luna came walking towards the crowd.
"Hello, I'm the Good Witch of the North. Who are you?"
"I'm Rainbow Dash, or that was who I was when I first fell. I came from a tornado into this land and I am so confused about everything. It's all happening too fast."
"I see. I also see the Wicked Witch of the East knocked out. I know it could be an accident. But you stopped what could've been a 20 year long war."
Rainbow Dash wondered about that for a moment, then why she was wearing a dress. Luna knew exactly what she was thinking and said, "Strangely enough the original owner of it was too big for it and it flew inside that tornado. I'm not sure who the owner was." Rainbow Dash stifled her laugh thinking it was the most ridiculous excuse she ever heard, EVER. "Alas, a part of it was missing, and it lies here... er... somewhere..."
"What's the big deal about this pony?" Rainbow Dash managed to ask.
"He tried to attack our town's hero Minuette," Apple Bloom replied.
"You should've seen the look on her face!!" said another voice.
"WHAT WAS THAT?" Rainbow Dash asked scared.
"You may have defeated the Wicked Witch of the East, but that was the Wicked Witch of the West." With that said, the pony flew down to them. The residents of the area scattered and ran.
"'Sup? I'm the Wicked Witch of the West," she said to Rainbow Dash.
"Chrysalis!?" she replied.
"I'm just here to see my... sweet Celestia he's gone...!" She ran over to her and cried on him. "My life is ruined!"
"Hey, that's what I say!"
"Does it even matter right now? My poor friend always had a feeling of being attacked and kicked into a house. But, it's half okay because he's half in, half out." She walked to the half out side of him. "To make it even worse he's also had feelings about being attacked by a--"
"Crystal Heart? I have been there and done that in another part of the world."
Chrysalis stood silent for a moment and looked down at Sombra's hooves. "Wow... he's just... wow... He must've rolled in the dirt before getting like this." Then she noticed something odd. "WHERE IS IT!?" Luna smiled looking at the now mad Chrysalis.
"Where is what?"
"He always carries around a pair of ruby colored slippers when not in public because... well... he never actually told me why...!" A few ponies giggled.
"I wonder what he looks like with them ON," they said.
"They may have fell of during flight," Rainbow Dash said logically.
"No, they must've disappeared," Chrysalis replied.
"Or maybe they appeared..." she had another odd feeling, "on my back hooves." She sat down again to notice they were. They fit perfectly on her. "Where have I seen this before?"
"You STEALER," Chrysalis said. She charged at her. Rainbow Dash prepared for impact, but Chrysalis flew back by Luna's magic. "This isn't... over Rainbow Dash... You may have outsmarted me this time, but I'll be back! I'll get you, my pretty, and your little d--"
"I don't have a dog," she interupted.
"Okay then... and your little c--"
"I don't have a cat either."
"Then what in Celestia's name do you have?"
"A turtle."
"And your little turtle too!" She vanished.
"It is nice seeing you all, but I must go."
"Where are you heading off to?" Luna asked.
"I need a way to get back to Ponyville to tell the Mane Six I'm alright."
"Well no one has the power to do that except our ruler."
"Don't mind me asking, but who is that ruler?"
"In the City of Emeralds lives a ruler. The great and powerful--"
"Trixie?"
"What? No... no... The great and powerful... CELESTIA."
So this place is where she stayed at for the past few days, Rainbow Dash thought. Then she said, "Will she have enough power to bring me home?"
"Absolutely. All you have to do to get to her is to Follow the Yellow Brick Road." She vanished in a cloud of pink smoke.
"I think I saw this before," Rainbow Dash said. She walked over to the road. The residents wished her good luck as she walked off to see Princess Celestia.
