After an attempt at a triple sonic rainboom goes catastrophically wrong, Rainbow Dash wakes up on a beach with no idea as to how she got there, how she'll go home, or who the other pony towering over her is.

While Rainbow and her new companion attempt to answer the former's questions, Princess Luna goes on a mission to exact justice from the one who bestowed upon Rainbow the gift linked to the disastrous stunt.

Finally, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie use their connection to their friend in an attempt to find her, only for Fluttershy to find herself fighting to save Pinkie from sinking into a shattering abyss.
