Ch 2 Missing

For the next five years, Twilight & Rainbow Dash looked for their friends. 10% of the population went missing, including their friends.

After the first year, Celestia sent half guards to search for the missing ponies, they searched everywhere, questioned everypony, but didn’t come up with anything.

After two years, a rumor spread throughout the town, ponies go missing even from their home. Twilight asked Rainbow Dash to live with her, until the missing ponies were found.

On that night, Princess Celestia thought she knew where the missing ponies went. When Twilight woke up, she looked out the window to see that it was still night, then she checked the clock, right next to her bed. The clock read 7:28, she knew she & Rainbow Dash went to bed around 9. She walked to Rainbow Dash, & said, while gently pushing her, “Dash, awake up there is a small problem.

Rainbow Dash woke up, let out a big yawn, before saying, “Twilight, what’s wrong? What time is it?”

Twilight said, “It’s almost eight in the morning, but the sun’s not up.”

Rainbow Dash looked out the window, then turned to Twilight & said, “Lets go say what’’s wrong.”

As they walked, they saw ponies looking at the sky & murmuring to each other.

Luna was hovering, in the middle of the town, she said, using her royal canterlot voice, “I hate to bring you this terrible news, My sister, Princess Celestia has gone missing. Until she is found,there is going to be a curfew at 7 pm.”

There was a collective gasping from the crowd, someone said, "Who's going to raise the sun?" Another pony said, "With Celestia gone, it's going to be forever night."

Luna said, over everypony, "Listen, we will find her, as we speak, guards are searching for Celestia and the missing ponies."
Rainbow Dash whispered, into Twilight’s ear, “Come, follow me.”

Twilight followed Rainbow Dash away from the other ponies. Once They were far away, so no one would overhear them, Twilight said, “So, Dash, why did you want to follow you?”

Rainbow Dash said, “Tonight, lets look for the Celestia & the other ponies.”

Twilight said, “What about the curfew?”

Rainbow Dash said, as if it was obvious, “Just don’t get caught by the guards.”

Twilight sighed, seeing there was no way to argue with Rainbow Dash, then said, “Fine, you take east side of town, I will take the west side of town, and we’ll me at home at midnight.”

Rainbow Dash said, “Okay, lets head somewhere to get something to eat, I’m starving.”

What they didn’t know was that someone listened to their plan. He tweaked the plan a little, then he smiled and walked away.

That night, Rainbow Dash walked around the east part of town, listening to her own steps, feeling the cold air on her body & looking for clues. She was too busy, looking for clues, to notice a shadow following her. A voice whispered in her ear, "Turn around, & head back home, you will never find the princess, the missing ponies, & your friends."

Rainbow Dash spun around to see no one there. she said, to herself, "Calm down, It was probably the wind." When she turned back around, a pony was standing right in front of her.

Author's Note

I don't know how Luna talks, so if you could help me & tell me how to make it better, I appreciate it

Ch 3 Dreams

Rainbow Dash backed up, then looked over the pony, the pony in front of her wore a dark grey, almost black, worn cloak, that looked like it was dragged and trampled. The pony said, in a malicious tone, “So, I heard that you are looking for the princess, the missing ponies, and your friends, is that correct.”

Rainbow Dash was shocked, how did he know, wait, this morning. He must have overheard us. Her shock turned into rage, then she said, “What, do you know what happened to them? Did you overhear our conversation?”

The pony chuckled, then said, “I might have, and I might not have, seen them or overhear. The only way is to follow my steps,” Then he walked into an alley.

She watched the pony, something kept moving in the pony’s cloak. Rainbow muttered, before following the pony, “You could have just said follow me to find out.” She followed the pony through a door, the only light was coming from outside. She walked in, then the door slammed shut. She turned and said, in a stern, but confident voice, “Who’s there. you can all come out now. The prank is over.”

Then a voice echoed throughout the building saying, “Sweet Dreams.”

Rainbow Dash turned around to see a shovel floating in mid air. She looked all over the shovel, there was no glow coming off of it, she started to say, “What the “ then the hit her on top of her head. She collapsed on the cold hard tiled floor, before she passed out she saw dark blue hooves walking towards her.

When Rainbow Dash woke up, she was in a dark room with a small square of light. She walked towards it, & found out it was a window to Twilight’s Library. When she look throught the window, a party was happening, the banner said, “CONGRATULATIONS, everypony was there, & on a pedestal stood Mr. Cloud. He wore a wonderbolt badge, wings were coming out of his cloak, everypony was praising him, even the wonderbolts were praising him. His voice echoed throughout the room, “You are loyal to everypony, but are ponies loyal to you. Look closely at the date, It’s the same year I came to Ponyville, and somehow I became a wonderbolt before you, and how long did you work?”

Rainbow Dash shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts, then she saw Luna running towards her, then disappeared, in her place was Nightmare Moon. Nightmare walked up to her and said, “you’re slow, you couldn’t even catch me, and you want to become a wonderbolt, don’t make me laugh.”

Rainbow Dash yelled, with tears streaming down her face, “You’re wrong. I don’t know about everypony, but my friends will help me when I need them the most, as I did for them. I will become a Wonderbolt, someday.”
Nightmare Moon disappeared, she saw Luna for a split second, before disappearing again, This time replaced with Mr. Cloud, Discord, Chrysalis. Mr. Cloud took a step forward and whispered in her ear, “How are you going to become a wonderbolt, without your wings.”

When she was about to ask what he meant, she felt a sharp pain across her cheek, waking her up instantly. Mr. Cloud was standing above her. She jumped at him and tackling him to the ground, knocking off his hood. She recoiled at the sight of him, he had pure black eyes, an inch long horn, dark brown hair around his ears, & some blood in his teeth. He said, apologetic and sarcastic, “Oh sorry, looks like I forgot to clean my teeth after having a snack of weak pony.” He licked his teeth clean, then said, as he kicked Rainbow Dash off of him, “is that better? If you don’t stop moving, you’re going to open your wounds again,” He held up Rainbow Dash’s wing, she turn around to see the bone were snapped, and where her wing were supposed to be were gone.

Ch 4 Negotiations

Ch 4 Negotiations

Rainbow Dash turned to Mr. Cloud, and said, “This is just an illusion, I still have my wings.”

Mr. Cloud sighed, through the wings into the corner of the room. Rainbow Dash finally looked at the room, it looked like the inside of a hospital,but there was no doctors, no separators, and the whole room was black with red trails on the tiles. Mr. Cloud, which made Rainbow Dash jumped, “I assure you, the only illusion is to hide the blood. Try to fly, if you fly, then you can leave, if not, you stay here.”

Rainbow Dash jumped into the air, flapped her wings, then crash into the ground. She looked up to see Mr. Cloud above her, he smiled, and said, “Well, guess you have to stay here, you are going to help me or die. If you betray me, I’ll kill your friends and break your mind. If you help me, I’ll give you back your wing.

Rainbow Dash stood up looked at her back again, blood was dripping down her fur, she turned around and said, “Fine, what do I have to do?

Mr. Cloud said, “You have to kill Twilight, or bring her here to the warehouse. If you kill her and bring her body here, you won’t die and you get your wings back, but if you bring her alive, there is a 50/50 chance of dieing. Oh, how was your dream, Luna got in several times, but I forced her out.”

Just before Rainbow Dash could say something, Mr. Cloud teleported her outside of an warehouse. She walked to Twilight’s Library, with blood tripping down her back.

Twilight was making a trench, from pacing back and forth, she looked at the clock, it was 3:15. She said with a hint of worry on her face, “Where is she? she was supposed to be here 3 hours ago. What if something happened to her.”

Then Rainbow Dash burst into the door, with blood dripping down her back, eyes halfway closed, and looking like she was going to pass out any second. She said, between pants, “Twilight, I need your help.” Then collapsed onto the floor.

Twilight screamed, as Rainbow Dash collapsed and she saw her wings were gone. She yelled for Spike, then ran to Rainbow Dash, saying “Please don’t be dead, please don’t be dead.” She checked her pulse, and sighed as she felt a pulse, it was faint, but there.

The boards creaked as Spike came down the stairs, he said, “Twilight, what wrong?” His eyes widened as he saw Rainbow Dash on the ground covered with blood, then he said, “What happened to Dash?”

Twilight turned to Spike and said, “No time to explain, I need a book on how to clean and treat a wound, bandages, sponge, and a towel, I carry her to the bathtub.”

Spike ran off to get the stuff, Twilight picked up Rainbow Dash, and carried her to the bathroom. She turned the water on and placed Rainbow Dash in the tub, with her head on the side of the tub. Spike came running in with the stuff. Twilight gave him a quick thanks, open the book, shut off the water, then started washing the blood off. Once the blood was cleaned off, She let the water out, dried off Rainbow Dash, then started to put bandage on. After that was all done, she carried Rainbow Dash to her bed. Spike went back to sleep, and Twilight brought a book to her to read.

A half hour later, Twilight heard creaking of the bed and groaning, she looked up to see Rainbow Dash trying to get up. Twilight walked over and place a hoof on her shoulder, then said, “Just relax, you lost a lot of blood. Just tell me what happened?”

Rainbow Dash told her the whole story, from the time they separated to the meeting, with every little detail. Twilight listened to her story. When she was done, Twilight said, “Are you sure it was, Mr. Cloud?” Rainbow said nothing, just nodded

Ch 1 New Pony

On a beautiful, sunny day, the birds were chirping, ponies were laughing, talking, and having a good time, and Twilight and her friend, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, & Rarity, were going to visit Pinkie Pie at her bakery. They walked into the bakery, the inside smelled like freshly baked bread. Pinkie was no where in sight, instead a different pony was running the bakery. The pony wore a dark grey cloak, that almost covered his entire body, the skin that was visible, was dark blue.

They walked up to the pony, Twilight said, “Hi do you know where Pinkie is?”

The pony said, in a dark & ominous, “Pinkie Pie has left on vacation. I tell her you stopped by. Where are my manners, my name Mr. Cloud.”

Twilight smiled & said, “Pleasure to meet you. I’m Twilight Sparkle, this is Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, & Rarity.”

Mr. Cloud said, “The pleasure is all mine, it’s nice to finally meet the rest of the element bearers.”

Twilight said, as they were about to leave, “Well, It was nice meeting you, but we must head off.”

As Twilight & her friends began to leave, they heard the door squeak open behind them,& Mr. Cloud say, “Oh Applejack & Fluttershy, could you help me with some stuff. I just need you to help me getting stuff out of my warehouse, & taste some apple desserts.

Applejack & Fluttershy said, “Okay.” Then turned to their friends, & Applejack said, “You guy go on ahead we meet up with you later.”

Mr. Cloud said, “Great, Thanks, for your help. Thanks for your help.” Then he led them into the bakery.

5 hours later, Twilight went to Sweet Apple Acre, she could see the apple trees a mile away. When she got there, she saw Applebloom. She walked up to Applebloom & said, “Hey Applebloom, is AJ here?”

Applebloom shook her head, & said, “I haven’t seen her. Hey Big Mac, have you seen Applejack?”

He poke his head out of the barn, said, “nope” then went back in.

Applebloom turned back to Twilight, then said, “Sorry Twilight, it seem Applejack isn’t here. Maybe check in later.”

Twilight said, just before leaving, “Okay, well, thanks for your time. Bye”

Applebloom said, “Bye.”

Twilight went to Fluttershy’s house. Once she got there, she knocked on the door, no came to the door. After a few minutes of waiting, she said, to herself, “Odd, Fluttershy should have opened the door by now. I guess she isn’t home. I’ll check later.”

This went on for a few days, the whole town knew something was wrong, ponies began disappearing all over. Twilight had a feeling that this was just the beginning.
