//-------------------------------------------------------// Lost In The Beat -by Rarity Is Mah Favorite- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Breaking news! //-------------------------------------------------------// Breaking news! "You did what now!" Twilight exclaimed. Her face was in anger. "I lost Rarity." Rainbow mumbled. From nowhere, Pinkie appeared with a pink sparkly microphone. "Breaking news! Rarity has gone missing! Last seen at Berry Punch's party last night. She went missing at about 8:12. Please, if you know where she is, please tell Rainbow Dash!" Pinkie finished happily. Fluttershy meeped. "Oh dear. What if she's been forced to be a slave? What if she's dead? What if she's..... Oh no!" Fluttershy said. "Uh.... Rainbow? What did she say ta ya last?" Applejack asked. Rainbow gulped. "Umm........ Uh.............. She said that she wanted to leave. But, I'm pretty sure she yelled something at me. I was lost in a song." Rainbow covered her face with her hands. Applejack pit a hand on RD's shoulder. "It's alright. You just lahked that song, an' ya couldn't resist." Applejack said. Rainbow slowly started to cry. I don't like it here. I'm leaving. Rarity said. It's not like you're gonna be kidnapped or something like that. I said. "Why didn't I listen? Rarity knows more about her wellbeing than I do!" Rainbow wailed. "I'll probably never see her again! Ever!" Rainbow yelled. Her remaining friends gave her a big hug. "We know Rainbow Dash. It's okay." Fluttershy cooed. //-------------------------------------------------------// Where Rarity wound up //-------------------------------------------------------// Where Rarity wound up Rarity opened her eyes. All she saw was a very dark room. She heared a man's footsteps. Rarity  looked at her surroundings better. Three light bulbs were located around the room. Her purple knee-length party dress was torn in some places. She was enclosed in a small box. "Hello Rarity." A male's voice said. Upon closer examination and the lights now on, Rarity saw it was Thunderlane. "Where am I?" Rarity asked. She looked at her kidnapper. He simply walked to the box where Rarity sat. "My basement. And your new home. Welcome." He stuck our his hand, and in return, Rarity bit it. Thunderlane slapped Rarity's face. "You..... You..... You abuser!" Rarity yelled. Thunderlane dismissed her comment. "How did you sleep? I slept like a baby." Thunderlane asked. Rarity only glared. Thunderlane walked to where Rarity was. He slapped her yet again. "Answer." He commanded. Rarity scrunched her nose. "Well enough." Rarity huffed. "Good. Are you hungry?" He asked. "I am. Do you know where Rainbow Dash is?" Rarity asked. "Before she left she said something involving finding you." He replied. "I'll get you some food." He left. Rarity recapped what happened to her. She was slapped two times, awoke in some weird box thing, saw her perfect dress ruined, found out Thunderlane kidnapped her, and most of all, knew Rainbow was trying to find her. "Rainbow, swear to god, this is worst than the time we all had poison joke. I'll hold up fine. Put my perfect face! It's ruined! And my dress is too! Wahhhh!" Rarity cried. Thunderlane choose for that time to arrive. "Missing your little friends? Well, here. And your food." Thunderlane threw seven ballpoint dolls at her and three wrapped tacos at Rarity, who let the dolls fall, but caught the tacos. He then let Rarity out of her box, ran to the door, opened it, and locked it. Rarity looked at the dolls. One was pink, with poofy pink cotton candy smelling hair. The doll was a perfect replica of Pinkie Pie. The second doll was orange, and had blonde hair tied with a red ribbon. Rarity figured it was Applejack. The third one was yellow, it's the longest light pink hair. That one was a replica of Fluttershy. The fourth had hair that looked like bacon. Rarity knew that it was Sunset Shimmer. The fifth was Twilight, and the sixth was Rainbow Dash. The Seventh was a replica of her..... And it was oddly sticky. She picked up the Rainbow Dash and herself. "Rarity, C'mon! It's not like you're gonna get kidnapped or something like that." She made The Rainbow Dash say. "Ahh! Rainbow help! Help!" The doll Rarity said. Rarity got up from her spot. Swear to god, if I became Hairity, I would look like Knuckles the Echidna. Oh, well. Things could be worst. Rarity thought. Thunderlane walked down and over to Rarity. "You know, many girls will kill for your beauty, your body shape, and your lifestyle. So perfect, you know." He said. He traced his thumb over Rarity's face. "You're very pretty. Very, very pretty. Ooh, you need to sleep, my dear Rarity." Thunderlane cooed. "I'm not tired, thank you very much." Rarity replied sweetly. Thunderlane threw a punch straight in Rarity's eye. "I said sleep." He growled, before Rarity fell to the ground, unconsious. //-------------------------------------------------------// Setting out //-------------------------------------------------------// Setting out Rainbow tossed and turned in her sleep. She wasn't still all night, and certainly wasn't going to be. Feeling terrible, she stumbled over to her closet. "Why? Oh wait. I need to find Rarity. Stupid song, stupid life." Rainbow grumbled. She picked out three outfits, two weights, and a pair of running shoes. She grabbed a piece of paper and her favorite pen and wrote, Dear Mom & Dad, I, Rainbow Jennifer Dash have set out to find Rarity. No, I am not running away, just going on a journey. I hope you aren't mad that I'm trying to find the freaking Element Of Generosity. If I'm not back in three days, tell the police or tell the school I'm on a special trip. I prefer the School option first. I will not die for sure. Oh, and before I forget, tell everybody I'm 20% Cooler. Love, Rainbow Dash Now satisfied with her letter, she walked down the stairs to the kitchen. She slowly opened the kitchen door so she wouldn't wake her parents. She grabbed things she didn't need to be heated and put them in her bag. She walked to the front door and opened it. She paused halfway out of the house. "Goodbye, you will be certainly missed." She whispered before stepping out of the house and shutting the door. It was now morning, and Mr. & Mrs. Dash went to go wake Rainbow up. They stepped into her room. No Rainbow. Then, Mrs. Dash saw Rainbow's letter. She showed her husband. He went pale. "R-R-Rainbow?" Mr. Dash asked. "If this is a joke, please stop. That Pinkie character is not good for you. Get ready for school." His voice was shakier than before. "Let's head downstairs." Mrs. Dash suggested. Her husband simply nodded. On the bottom of the stairs was a note. It read, I know you wouldn't take my first note seriously, and this is serious. I am going to find Rarity. I left at 2:36 am. My note that you have already read tells more info. RD out! Both of the parents fainted at the same time, one letter in each's hand. Rainbow was the talk of the school.  Nobody could even stop talking. Lunch was even worse. "She's been kidnapped like Rarity! Oh no! Fluttershy's gonna be next!" Yelled a drama. "She's probably dead!" Yelled an Eco. "Rainbow's totally g...." Began a Fashionista. "ENOUGH! RAINBOW NOR RARITY IS DEAD! IF THEY WERE, I'D HAVE TWO ELEMENT NECKLACES! SO STOP MAKING ASSUPTIONS! RAINBOW WENT TO FIND RARITY!" Twilight yelled. Everybody looked weird. Just to Sunset's luck, she was handed a newspaper. She cleared her throat and began to read. RARITY AND DASH MISSING! SWEETIE BELLE CURRENTLY IN DEPRESSION. BOTH GIRLS ARE DEAD! Our reporting team went to the Carousel Boutique and found a disheveled Sweetie Belle. Her face was tear-stained, her hair was matted, and she had numerous scratches, possibly from Opalessence. She claimed to have lost everything and if her sister wasn't found within three days, she would end it. I don't want her dead. We have a petition called Save Sweetie. Please donate. More to come in two days. Wondercolt Whereabouts. Button Mash Twilight's eye rapidly twitched. She then cried. "What's wrong Sugarcube?" Applejack asked. "First of all, Rarity's missing. Second of all, Rainbow's gone, and Third of all, Sweetie's going to commit suicide if Rarity isn't back!" Twilight sobbed. //-------------------------------------------------------// The Party //-------------------------------------------------------// The Party The music blasted, causing Rainbow Dash to nearly go deaf. Rarity, who was right next to her was walking carefully. "Why are you so..... I dunno. Self-conscious?" Rainbow asked with an smirk. "I don't like it here! I'm leaving." Rarity turned to leave, but Dash grabbed her arm. "C'mon! It's not like you're going to be kidnapped or something like that!" Rainbow tightened her grip and dragged Rarity along. The music blasted even louder near the center. Rarity put her hands over her ears. Rainbow Dash let go of her grip on Rarity's arm. The song was too familiar with Rainbow. "Things being the way they are, only leave permanent scars! Twist your story, and a make a scene! Nobody wants to be the boring Queen! Twist your fate, rebel against the rules, just be yourself! Be you! All I say is true! It's all up to you!" The speakers blasted. Slowly, but surely, Rainbow was getting lost in the beat. Swaying her hips, bobbing her head, all she cared about was that song. That one song. She didn't notice the lack of a certain super pale fashionista. She didn't hear cries of 'Rainbow! Help me!' She was too occupied with that song. That one song. Rainbow was still dancing until another song came on. "Rarity! Wasn't that song amazing? Rarity? Rarity? Rarity!" Rainbow cried. She pushed past so many people, asking the occasional person about her and getting a bunch of 'I don't know' and extremely vague answers. She finally threw down the towel. "Rarity, wherever you are, please, please be okay. I'll still be trying to find you. I swear. I will check around the school, if you aren't there." Rainbow sighed, got into her car, and drove home.
