Rainbow Heart 2

As a coincidence of fate, Princess Twilight, and her friends were in the Everfree Forest trying to help some local pony folk in Ponyville with some issues, which led them to the dark desolate and barren forest. It was destiny that Double Rainbow and the main six would cross paths here in the afternoon.

Double Rainbow was flying overhead using the magic he possessed. He had the power to levitate himself and fly like a pegasus just without wings. Twilight and her friends were walking in single file line deep into the forest.

Rainbow Dash was the pony who spotted Double Rainbow above.

“What’s that up there?” She stated. “Is that a unicorn flying without wings?”

Twilight looked up and exclaimed, “That the zombie pony we’ve been looking for. That’s Double Rainbow. The pony who is missing from the Stones of Tears.”

Applejack asked, “Where’s he going in such a hurry?”

Twilight said, “We need to stop him and find out.”

Rainbow Dash stated, “Way ahead of you!”

Rainbow Dash flew up into the air and floated in front of Double Rainbow’s path.

Double Rainbow came to a standstill.

“Be careful, Rainbow.” Fluttershy muttered.

Twilight added, “Watch yourself, Dash. He’s got powerful magic.”

Twilight noticed and recognized the horn on the pony’s head. It was the same secondary horn Rainbow Heart had on his head. It was clearly nailed back onto his forehead horn stump.

Given the evidence before her, Twilight informed Rainbow Dash, “He also knows where Rainbow Heart is!”

Pinkie Pie stated to Fluttershy, “You should probably go up and help her.”

Fluttershy, scared and almost crying, commented, “I know. But I can’t.”

Twilight took to the sky next to Rainbow Dash determined.

Double Rainbow stated, “Out of my way Element of Harmony bearers. You impede my progress and the salvation of ponykind.”

Applejack commented, “Somepony needs to get off their high horse.”

Twilight exclaimed, “You’re the pony whose been killing all those other ponies aren’t you?”

Double Rainbow informed, “I turn bad ponies into good ponies, if they can’t survive the transformation that is not my fault.”

Applejack stated, “There you have it. Straight from the horse’s mouth.”

Twilight ordered, “Surrender and come with us, if you resist, we’re gonna beat you!”

Pinkie Pie comically stated to the sound of a drum and cymbal beat, “I don’t know. There’s really no point in beating a dead horse.”

Double Rainbow chided, “Enough! You’re actions are void. It’s like backing the wrong horse in a one-horse race. I will win. My powers are greater than yours.”

Twilight used the reverse zombie spell and struck Double Rainbow in the chest. Double Rainbow burst out laughing.

“You idiot. I am too powerful for that!” Double Rainbow said. “But now you your fates are sealed.”

Double Rainbow discharged a spherical rainbow colored energy blast that knocked the two fliers away from him.

Pinkie Pie added, “Somepony is as strong as a horse. But his magic shouldn’t be that powerful. That’s alicorn power.”

Fluttershy quietly stated, “Maybe we could all just go our own ways.”

Rainbow Dash flew forward charging the floating unicorn in an attempt to spear him.

Double Rainbow didn’t budge. Instead his horn flashed white light and in a moment Rainbow Dash bounced off of him like a bug on a windshield. She recoiled from the hit wondering what happened. When inspecting herself for injuries she realized that she had been turned into a filly.

“Hey! What the?” Rainbow Dash exclaimed. “That’s not fair! Fight pony to pony!”

Twilight stated, “That’s impossible. No pony can do that.”

“Behold. Nature has selected me to be the counter balance. This fight is in vain. You’re efforts are void and meaningless.” Double Rainbow informed.

Applejack kicked a log into the air aimed at the floating unicorn. The log missed barely. Double Rainbow did not move an inch or flitch.

Looking at the pony, a flash came from Double Rainbow’s horn and all of Applejack’s legs shrunk in size. She looked like a Pembroke Welsh Corgi.

“What in tarnation?” She mentioned in disbelief.

Rarity stated, “I’ve just about had enough of you, you decaying disgusting zombie pony.”

Double Rainbow used his magical abilities to change her cutie mark to an overflowing garbage can.

In a flash Rarity exclaimed, “I need garbage. I love garbage. I want to bathe in its beauty. There has to be some around here somewhere.”

Rarity began searching for that which she craved the most garbage.

Pinkie Pie shouted, “Hey, that looks like fun. Do me next.”

Pinkie Pie was changed into a blue pony by the will of Double Rainbow.

Pinkie Pie looked at herself and said, “That’s it? This sucks. I feel so blue, sad and depressed.”

Looking at Fluttershy, a flash of white light came from his horn. Instantly Fluttershy was turned into a stallion, complete with Flutterguy voice.

“This just isn’t right.” She muttered.

Twilight stared in awe and disbelief unsure what to make of what she had just witnessed. She did not have any spells to combat this kind of sorcery and questioned if Celestia herself could be able to fight such magic. It did not stop her determination.

Twilight braced herself to attack. Double Rainbow saw the sun getting lower in the sky.

Double Rainbow exclaimed, “The darkness arises. There is not much time. Travel separates us from our journeys. Space is against us. In the end there will be salvation, even if you cannot bear witness to its glory or understand it. The darkness of disharmony rises and I will reformat it!”

Double Rainbow undid his spells and left in a wink disappearing.

“Farewell.” Was all Double Rainbow said.

Twilight informed her friends, “We’re gonna need a new strategy.”
