Chapter 1: Pitch Black

Rainbow dash jumped up form her horrible nightmare and flew up and hit her head off of the ceiling. she had the worst dream and she was looking around for any sign of that thing. she had no idea what it was but it was a shadowy figure and it was in the shape of another pony. she tried to shake it off "it was just a dream..." she took a deep breath and relaxed and then looked over to the small clock next to her bed. 3:30 am... hmm wow she never woke up this early before and she didn't want to go back to sleep to have the dream again. she flew over to her bookshelf and opened the first daring do book and started reading. she read for almost what felt like an three hours but it was only half an hour that passed. she sighed and stuffed her face in the pillow slowly she drifted off the sleep again.

Her eyes were greeted by a long dark hall that seemed to go on forever. at the end of the hall was the outline of a the shadow that haunted her dreams. Dash got up off the floor and tried to run away but the hall seemed to go on forever. the Shadow was getting closer and closer every step she took. "GAHH!" Rainbow Tripped and fell on the ground and the shadow reached out and grabbed rainbow. She woke up in fear and drenched in sweat. she rolled over to her clock. 6:55 AM Wow she never got up early before! she was always sleeping in and then getting in trouble for being late for her weather shift. She decided to make breakfast.

Rainbow flew down to make herself a bowl of hay flakes and she planted herself on the sofa. After breakfast she headed or her shift. After a long and annoying shift with Ditzy rainbow went to go ask twilight to see if she knew what was going on with her dreams. She knocked at the door and a purple unicorn happily answered the door. "Hello Rainbow Dash! Something Wrong?" "yea i have been having problems can i come inside?" "sure" The two ponies sat down and each got a cup of tea. "so whats the problem dash?" " I have been having dreams... Weird Dreams..." Twilight turned to Dash and Started Laughing "NOT THOSE KINDS OF DREAMS!!!" twilight instantly stopped laughing and sat back down on the sofa and took a sip of her tea.

"Well Rainbow can you explain what is going on in your dreams?" Rainbow dash Checked to see if anypony was watching. "Well there is the creepy shadow haunting my dreams..." Twilight eyes widened and rainbow dash gave her a serious look.
"well rainbow i don't know what to tell you!" "is there anyway i can stop these dreams?!?!?" Rainbow dash was now flying in the air holding on to twilight. "Rainbow just forget about it its probably just nothing" Yea.. Pfff... Nothing... Rainbow thought to herself as she left twilights home. "Well if twilight can't help the next best thing is probably rarity!" Rainbow Dash Flew as fast as her wings could carry her to Rarity's home.

Rainbow dash bashed through the door and was greeted be sweetie bells smiling face. "hey Rainbow Dash! What are you doing here?" "Oh i just need to ask rarity something important" "Can you tell me PLEASE?" "sorry kiddo its very err... Secret." Rainbow dash walked into the room were rarity was working on her newest dress. "OH RAINBOW DASH! how nice of you to visit!" "Yea rarity i need your help with something... Well i need advice..." "OH I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT!" "You do?" "Of course Dear!" Rarity runs into the other room and cojmes out with a dress and her sunglasses. "here dear you will look great for you boyfriend" "BOYFRIEND?!?!?!". Rainbow dash threw off the dress and pulled down her sunglasses over her eyes. "Rarity i am not interested in staillions right now!" "Oh..." Rarity blushed.

"Well What did you need then?" " i am having strange dreams and i need your help they are very creepy" "Well Dash Can you tell me about your dreams?" Rainbow dash took a seat on rarity's sofa. "Well there is this creepy shadow that is haunting me and... i just need some help getting rid of these dreams" "Well i am sorry rainbow dash but i don't know how to help you but i think that you should try and keep your mind off of those things as much as you can!" "Well Thanks for the help" Rainbow Dash flew out the door and sighed.

Rainbow Dash turned to sweet apple acres and flew as fast as she could. she crash head first into an apple tree knocking all of the apples into the bins below. Rainbow Dash Pulled her head out of the tree and shook it off. "Rainbow You Okay?" "yea AJ i am fine" "What up surger cube you don't look very happy?" Rainbow Dash took off her sunglasses and flew down and grabbed an apple. "Well... i am not sure if you can help but... I guess i could tell you..." Rainbow Dash took a bite of an apple and sighed. "So I am having this dream about this shadow and its been haunting my dreams for a while and i want to get rid of it..." "Well it seems your having a problem that i can't fix but i am sure they might have medicine that could help you forget about your problem!" An idea popped into dash's Head. "Hey! Zecora Might be able to help!" Rainbow Dash Smiled and dashed to the everfree Forest.

Rainbow Arrived at Zecora's Hut and knocked at the door and the door opened and she was greeted by applebloom. "Hey applebloom where is zecora?" "Oh she wnet out to get some things but she will be back!" "Can i come in and wait for her?"
"Sure i don't see why not!" Rainbow Walked into her zecora's hut and took a seat on the floor. The door opebed and she was not greeted by zecora but by something very familer.

Dash Jumped up and screamed. it was what she had thought and it was coming for her and apple bloom. dash tripped trying to make a run for the window. It was right in front of her and now she would find out what happens after she gets grabbed by the shadow. "NO..." Dash made a break for the window and flew out into the forest. she looked around thinking of a place to hide. She quickly flew to fluttershy's cottage. She flew as fast as she could and nothing was going to stop her from getting away form that thing! "FUTTERSHY!!!" Fluttershy was just walking inside to feed her bunny angel "R-Rainbow!" Rainbow dash crashed into Fluttershy. They both fell on their backs and rainbow dash instantly grabbed Fluttershy. "YOU GOTTA HIDE ME NO TIME TO EXPLAIN!" "Oh... OK..." Fluttershy put rainbow dash in a closet and closed it.

Fluttershy was feeding her bunny when a knock was at the door. Fluttershy answered the door and it was the shadow. Fluttershy jumped up and flew up stairs and hid under her bed. Rainbow Dash was sleeping in the closet when the shadow opened the closet and grabbed her. Rainbow woke up in a dark area. She was hungry and looked around to she were she was. "Uhh... Hello?" "Why Hello Miss Dash" "WHO ARE YOU?" The Other Voice laughed and she heard a loud bang. Rainbow Got up of her back. "SIT DOWN! Your death will be swift and painless" "NO!" Rainbow dash saw a window and she make a dash for it. she smashed through the window and found out she was in twilight's basement. "WHAT THE??!?!?!" Rainbow dash tried to run home as fast as she could but the shadow stopped her and She woke up.

She was still in fluttershy's closet b8ut it was really hot and she was all sweaty. Rainbow opened the closet and flew out. "FLUTTERSHY?" Fluttershy was feeding her animals. "Oh Yes Rainbow Dash?" "I need to tell you something" "OK..." "i am having weird dream where there is this shadow haunting me" "ok well i am not sure what to tell you rainbow but... i am sure they have some medicine to help you!" WHY DOES EVERYPONY THINK I NEED MEDICINE!!! Rainbow dash thanked her for the advice and flew back home. it was dark out and rainbow thought that she should get some sleep. Rainbow went back to her cloud home and went to sleep.

It Was the some dream except it wasn't the shadow at the end of the hall it was... Twilight? Something was very wrong here and rainbow knew twilight has something to do with it! Rainbow would go to twilights next morning and find out why she is in her dreams and what is going on with the shadow. She woke up and made herself breakfast and then quickly flew over to to twilight's home.
