In the Rainbow Factory
Where not a single soul gets through
IN the Rainbow Factory

Deep in the pages of history
Hides the secrets of a mystery
You dont even deserve those wings you wear
Now accept your fate and Die in the Pegasus Device.....

IN the Rainbow factory
WHere Failures pay their toll
Now i've awoken
and im taking back CONTROL....

A few Hours before Trixie's Arrest

She had been waiting for a moment like this ever since the two of them had crosses paths again years ago. Twilight had bested Trixie in the past, but this time would be different. At least in Trixies mind it would be. She didn't take into account the fact that Twilight was an Alicorn, let alone the Element of Magic. The Alicorn Amulet wasn't crafted to taken in to account the opponents natural magic skills if they were an Alicorn. It was created by a powerful Unicorn, hence it left Trixie at a disadvantage now.

Trixie could take anything Twilight Threw at her now. She not only was an alicorn now, she also had the Alicorn amulet back in her possession. She decided now was the time to crush the competition once and for all. She walked around the corner of the Building and made her presence know to all. Twilight stared in disbelief. HOW WAS TRIXIE AN ALICORN!?!?! Then it hit her like a brick. Celestia must of done this. Maybe she got tricked into thinking Trixie had wanted to change. Then Twi saw the amulet and it all made sense to her. She had tricked Celestia so she get the amulet back. That mare never learns apparently.

You think you so perfect you little bookworm. I'll show you who's better Twilight, I'll have you groveling at my knees, throwing yourself at me for mercy. The only mercy you'll see is from the bars of the Canterlot Prison cells.

Celestia realized she'd have to explain to Twilight why she did what she did for Trixie, The goddess of the sun truly thought that Trixie could be reformed. Some mares are just beyond redemption. Celestia came to that dark realization as Trixie stood there boasting about how she'd make little Twily suffer. Before the Princess could say anything, Trixie teleported out of the capitol, and flew back to the Rainbow Factory and get this over with. Twilight had already gotten there ahead of her.

Near Ponyville

While this was going on , RD was still with Scootaloo. her flight test was in another week so RD did everything she could to get her 'sister' and friend ready for what could be expected. Scootaloo's wings had grown a bit longer than they were before. She flapped them as hard as she could and was airborne in no time. She spun clouds, and did evverything Rainbow Dash had taught her. When they were taking a break, Rainbow Dash left to get check on Twilight. When she finally reached Cloudsdale, she saw Twilight and Trixie locking horns. This was it she thought. There's no way Trixie can fight Twilight and win, even with the Alicorn Amulet powering her right now. Twilight still had more Magic than Trixie did as an Alicorn.

The Battle became an airborne magic battle in seconds. Each were exchanging shots with the other and showing no sign of slowing down. It was ungodly how they were faring against each other. It was like watching two titans square off with the amount of energy each was putting off right now. Rainbow Dash hid behind a cloud to observe. She didnt want Twilight to see her and get distracted. Trixie would of used something like to her advantage if it came down to it. As they were fighting Rainbow Dash couldnt help but secretly cheer for Twilight. After all she was her marefriend.

Your so hypnotizing
your not likek the others
they dont understand you
your from another world
Im ready to go , lead me into the light
Your kiss is toxic
Like a poison
Your kiss is cosmic
Kiss me Kiss me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction

That's how Rainbow Dash felt when she was near, or with Twilight. It was like being in a whole other world when they were together. She felt like Twi's kisses were toxic, like her love was infectious. It was almost supernatural in the way she walked when they were around each other. None of their other friends were sure how to take it. Applejack put her hoove to her face once when they had been caught kissing on Hearts and Hooves day. Fluttershy fainted when she saw them kiss. Pinkie's jaw hit the floor when she caught them in the act during one of her parties. Rarity nearly threw up that same day. She was with AJ when they saw the two of them lock lips. Rarity also nearly fainted as well. Kissing in public was something she was strictly against when it came to whomever she cared about. That somepony just happened to be the one next to her. But nopony else knew that her and AJ were dating.

That was something that they deemed private and no pony else's business. Not even their friends.

Rainbow had gotten a song by Katy Pony stuck in her head. It always happened when she was with Twilight. the melody just carried both of them away. Rainbow of course claimed that she couldn't stand anything 'girly' for too long. But there was something about that song that just made her melt everytime her and Twilight were together. She didn't have a care in the world when they were around each other. The love she felt could be overpowering at times but she didn't care. Just as long she found a way to make her mare friend feel blissfully happy, she didn't really care. As much as she denied it, she still couldnt get that god forsaken song out of her head, and she really didn't want to.

What cause have I to feel glad?
I've built my life on judgement and causing pain
I don't know those eyes I see in the bloodstained chrome
Now everything that I've had
And everything I've known have been thrown away;
And with time, I've come to find this isn't my home

I've stoked the fire
Seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire
To change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control

I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please, break my shackles,
I want it to stop

I stallion these wretched machines
Day in, day out, the grinding wears on my brain
Undermining my sanity, making me question my reality
But life is not as it seems
Should I take a chance for freedom and throw it all down the drain?
I've been imprisoned, please burn my transgressions away

I've stoked the fire
Seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire
To change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control

I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please, break my shackles,
I want it to stop

I've stoked the fire
Seen more pain than you can know
The tears of the broken have washed away my soul
Pushed by desire
To change the way my stream will flow
Now I've awoken, and I'm taking back control

I'm sick of hurting,
Sick of thinking it's all I do
I break those around me, those spared are very few
But the bright sun is burning
And my sky shines, ever blue
Friendships surround me;
I'm becoming a part of you

I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please, break my shackles,
I want it to stop

Why. WHY in the name of Celestia would the lyrics linger in her mind when she was trying to hard to forget them. It was like someone was typing them into her concious mind without her permission. IT was driving Rainbow Dash up a wall. She felt like she was losing her sanity despite her best efforts to be there for both Scootaloo and Twilight. She couldnt just abandon Scoots, not now, not when the filly pegasus needed her the most. But Her nightmares combined with that eerily haunting song continued to plague her no matter what she did. She decided to go back to Scootaloo and tell her about her nightmare. Maybe the two of them could get to the bottom of it. When she got back to the clubhouse, Scoots was no longer outside. R went to the window and saw the three fillies in the clubhouse napping. She decided to wait a moment before knocking on the door. Groggily Scootaloo got up and answered the door. RD immidiately pulled her outside and hugged her as tight as she could, before telling her 'sister' that something was haunting her dreams.

RD reeled back in shock when Scoots told her she was having the same kind of NIGHTMARE. IT was as if something in that dream was linking them together. And it scared both of them. Scootaloo told her about how she'd dream that she was in the factory, yelling at Rainbow Dash to stop. That she yelled at her "IM YOUR SISTER, WHY? WHY DID YOU LET THEM KILL ME DASH?!," In fits of pain and anguish. Rainbow told Scoots that in her part of the dream she was trying to answer, but she felt like a weight was keeping her saying what she truly wanted to say and instead this came out, " YOU FAILED YOUR FLIGHT TEST, YOU FAILED ME!," When thats not what her heart was trying to convey.

By figure this out together RD said that she would never abandon Scootaloo no matter what. She'd quit the company if she could, just to protect her. Deep down she really did love Scootaloo, she knew she looked up to Rainbow Dash, but RD also knew how much Scootaloo ment to her. She was the best thing to come into RD's life for the longest time. And she wasnt going to repeat the mistake that her own mother made by abandoning the family. She'd be there for her and care for her. She had even planned on adopting her as own daughter. She had told anypony yet that she was considering it. Until now. She decided to see what her friends reaction would be.

"Scootaloo, i have to ask you something personal," Rainbow looked down at the Orange and purple maned filly.

" Umm ok?," Scoots wasnt sure where the Cyan pegasus was going with this.

"How would you feel if i adopted you?," she just put it out there.

"Wait.. WHAT!?!," Scoots said with a ton of excitement. She wrapped her hooves around RD and hugged her even more tightly then before. AJ came out to see what the frackus was all about. Scootaloo ran up to her, hugged her gleefully and told her that RD was going to be her new Mother. the Orange winged filly was so excited that she could hardly contain herself.

"ARe you sure Dash?," AJ asked with some concern. Rainbow looked her in the eyes and made sure that concern was misplaced.

"Yea, I'm sure AJ, I need this, and its a big help for Scoots," She told the cowpony.

Author's Note

As much as there is action in this story. It also a bit TwiDash, for all us TwiDash fans out there in cyberspace. I borrowed lyrics from a song i was listening to, to emphasize the romantic scenes/feelings that RD and Twi have to each other. The song is Katy Perry's ET in case anyone wants to know. I changed the lyrics around for a reason. Side note, i dont own the song Awoken by WoodenToaster and H8_Seed, I just feel the lyrics fit the situation in my fic.
