Prologue

I woke up unwillingly, and twilight stares at me yelling at me to get up.
"Wake up! You did something! Something Very bad! Ponyville is being burnt to the ground now! We have to get out of here!"
I let myself process whats being told to me. I open my mouth to argue that I didn't do anything but she drags me out of bed. As I look out my window I see it burning. I watch as a house collapses on a poor filly. I watch as a laugh fills the air. Wait, what do I mean watch? I listen to laughs not look!! Ugh, im loosing it.
My house rocks slowly as a lame emits in my kitchen. I grab twilight and jump out the window. As soon as we hit the air I flap my wings to a hill where the others gathered. fluttershy was the first, surprisingly, to give me a complaint.
"You have a lot of nerve showing up here rainbow dash!"
"I did nothing! You can't accuse me of something I did not do!"
Twilight and the rest give me and angered look and say all at once that they saw me do it. was it possible a clone was created? Or a changeling..??
I storm away flying through the air and land on a cloud and close my eyes. Perhaps the last time I fall asleep knowing I can say im a good guy..

1- The visitor.

I awake on top of my cloud- wait a minute! I'm not on the cloud anymore? Was I Kidnaped!?! I survey the room around me. The walls are painted grey and a window is tinted fairly black. I peer into it, hoping to get a glance at somepony or something. Once I give up, I look around more. I see a table in front of me, Nah to small, Desk in front of me. A seat sits across from me and I'm sitting in the other. With my hooves tied to the chair I knew I wouldn't leave. But I had a sinking feeling my friends were up to this, and the princesses.

"LET ME OUT!!"I scream kicking out with my legs when door opens in front of me. Whoa. Did the door come from no where? Or was it camo? Nevermind. My visitor steps through the door. A light blue unicorn stallion steps in. His mane is dark blue. Fairly cute. Wait what? Do I kinda like him? Augh I'm messing up my mind. I watch him sit in the chair across from me. Oh man, he is kinda cool. STOP!! Alright. I'm calm... I'm calm... He just gives me a smile. His voice breaks the solitude of quietness.
"Is it true you caused that?" he says.
"No way! I have no powers able to do that!!!!"

He shakes his head as if he was saying he doesn't trust me. He takes out the suit case and opens it. Then he hands me a folder. I look inside and see pictures of me grinning evilly. No, Im not evil. That can't be me! Maybe..... A changeling turned into me? I had to be framed. I shake my head no.
"I didn't do it! Does someone believe it wasn't me? Anyone at all?" I say angered. Why wouldn't anyone believe me? Don't they remember changlings? I have another feeling Scootaloo is watching...
"sorry Ma'am, this has to be true." He takes off his sunglasses. I could see the gears grinding inside his head. Man he's a heavy thinker. He moves close to me and paralyzes me as me and him share direct eye contact. Wait a minute what's he doing? This isn't a normal.... stare.............................. I stare at him back unable to move. Sirens blare everywhere. I felt more crazy. Oh he did something. He did something bad.

Twilight

I hated how we had to do this to rainbow dash But we all agreed it was for her own good. But it became the opposite. Our investigator completely just turned on us and ran off with some dozed off Rainbow Dash. Can you believe that? We tried to track them down. But he runs fast. So its up to me to stop him!
I gallop hard an fast chasing the kidnapper. He was surprisingly light. Rainbow dash surprisingly wasn't awake, and instead was taking a snooze. I knew he was a bad idea- Wait a minute. Did he just? Jump out a second story window? People are crazy.

He lands expertly on the roof of a grocery store and gallops across to the other side.
"Rainbow das-!" I stopped myself. She would've flown us across to the grocery store. To bad she's with him. I guess she isn't so loyal anymore hm? I could tell rainbow dash was under a trance. But I thought it was the other way around. I thought she was doing it to him. I'm confused. Who's the bad guy?

Rainbow Dash

I once again woke up in a strange place. But it wasn't just the place that felt strange... I felt more crazy, less control of myself. Like I'm being controlled. There's no way I committed those crimes, but now? I'm not so sure. I cannot describe it.

"You may go now. But I will be watching you. Through your own eyes and at times I may use you."
There it was. That voice again. Taunting me to mess up so he can laugh. "Wait.. What do you mean by that?"

"I will not answer a question that you know the answer to already. Now go."
So I left him. Just like that. I crossed a couple hills and came across a cliff. I flew off it and into ponyville. I had a bad feeling about this. I keep getting an urge to- don't fall under his control. Not yet. I finally landed in the center. I stared at a TV. Apparently they had some other troubles. I have a feeling this new villain is connected to my evil twin.

As a mater of fact they also captured my twin. Which was killed. When was the last time we were so brutal? So off I went. I eventually ended up at twilight treehouse and gave it a knock. careful....... that came out loud and clear! But how! No one was talking to me! He must be using freaky telepathic powers. The door opened and Fluttershy opened the door. "hi Fluttershy! Are you guys having a sleepover again?"
"Umm.... Yeah....."

"Sweet! Let me come in." I walked inside without asking. At the top of a staircase was a mad faced Twilight Sparkle. "Hi Twi..."

"What are you doing Rainbow? What happened to you! We didn't even know you had a twin! Wait a second. Your not the twin are you? And we happened to kill the real one?"
"I'm the real one." I sighed. She's getting worked up over nothing again. My hoof launched up at her face so fast I didn't even see myself do it! The impact knocked her backwards and she tripped over the chair. Everyone gasped in shock.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to! Someone is controlling me! Please! Help me!"
"We cannot trust someone who is unloyal." Says twilight furiously. "And you will not enjoy the consequences!"
She grabbed me with magic and put me in a cage. Oh no. Something bad is about to happen. Then everything went black.

For the 3rd time today I wake up in bad condition. The cage is gone but I'm chained to a wooden stake. I see a giant crowd. Wait hold on a second! Crowd? To my left are Princesses Twilight, Luna, Celestia, and Candance. In front of me are the symbols of all the elements of harmony.
Princess Celestia is the first to speak. "Today we are here to destroy a element that has long ago betrayed us all. Once a friend, now a foe. She is also known as rainbow dash. But I'm going to bash you!" She grins and elbows Luna. Luna shakes her head disapprovingly. "Get it? Oh never mind"

Luna walks up to me. "You are not worthy of being known as the element of loyalty. Is there any words you wish to say?"

I sigh. Deep breath. "None of this was my fault. Just because the rainbow factory incident happened I will blame all that on pinkie for making a bet that I wouldn't. Other then that nothing was my fault! I'm being mind controlled Luna. You must understand the power the dark side has against me? I am weak and a easy target. He's watching everything happening right now..." I look down. A tear falls. Soon that tear will mix with blood. My blood "You understand...... Right?"

Luna sighs. "I do. But this is different" Luna nods to Celestia. Candance Walks up behind me. Luna soon next to me Celestial on my left. And twilight in front. All of there eyes starts to glow. Magic flows out of their horns and forms a pyramid above me. I look at the circle of elements again. I see mine fading.. fading.... gone. This feeling... its like being discorded. My fur turns grey. My mane turns into a darker shade. My cutiemark disappears. I cry. I cry so much. My life flashes in front of me when suddenly, the stallion breaks down the entire wall. He's hiding something. He is in disguise. He shoots a wave of magic at the triangle above me. All four princesses are sent flying onto their backs. I collapse. I hardly have any energy to stand. But man whoever this guy was.... no matter what he dos to me... I like him.

2- A family reunion. Sort of.

No! It couldn't. But it was. He flashed a smile as the princesses got to their feet. I still felt empty.. I felt.... Unloyal. Then I remembered the element was destroyed. Hopefully if I play my cards right I could get the element back and not get killed in the processes. So I flew off. Like that. I had the chance! So I used it. I heard Pinkie was wanting me to come back. In her crazy kinda way. Oh well. I have to visit someone I haven't seen in a LONG time.

I flew up into Cloudsdale to the weather factory. I was certain he was doing his night shift. I opened the door and creeped into an office. Then to where the rainbows are made. Then to another office labeled:
RAINBOLT

I then walked inside. I still felt my pang of guilt. But I had to come back. I saw the photo of me and him together. Then he walked back into the room.
"Rainbow Dash?"
"yeah dad. Its me."
He picked me up, literally, and hugged me till I could no longer breath. I needed help and my best chance for this mission was with Rainbolt, my dad.
"What happened to you rainbow dash?" He kinda knew already but he didn't want to show. "Whatever the reason you could stay with me at my house again."
"Really? That would be great!"

Then he got a more serious look on his face again. then he whispered in a quiet tone, "Remember when I said I will tell you about your mom when you got older? Well I guess I gotta now." He took a breath then went to his desk and showed me a picture of a yellow mare. her eyes were red-ish violet, like mine. I smile. Her mane was a bit red and orange. What was I talking about? im confusing myself. Nevermind. "Her name was firefly. She could fly so well. You got her athletic abilities. Alot of her."
"Is that a good thing?"

He grinned. "Yes honey, it is." He looked at the photo. "She left when you were young.. " He said and shook his head in disgust. "Said she wasn't ready to be a mom."
"Oh..." Rainbolt hugged his daughter with a wing. Her tone saddened him. He sighed.
"Now explain why you came back dashie!" He gave her a warm smile.
So I told him everything. EVERYTHING. Every dying detail! Even what just happened to day. I then finally asked if he could help me.
"sure dash. I'll help you. Now get some rest." I often had to sleep in his often since he was never home. SO I was used to this. I then fell asleep. But I didn't have a nice dream.
