You’ve heard this story before, haven’t you?

Just about every pony in Equestria has. The first ever National Dash Parade Day, 104 years ago. The day that The Dash, one of our greatest national heroes, broke into the Cloudsdale Weather Factory, and almost met her end at the hands of a monstrous villain with a terrible plan to turn all of Equestria to glass. It's a story of bravery, of danger, of good and evil, and of a Princess' fight for freedom.

And of course, it's all true... isn't it?

Written for EqD Writer Training Grounds Tanks for the Memories event. Also, first fic on this site, so feel free to applaud me as the best debut writer ever and tell me how I have no faults.

Rated Teen for a little bit of blood. It's not a Saw movie, but can't be too safe.
