We flashback from the Ponyville Schoolhouse...

"Hello, girls!" Miss Cheerilee smiled. Then she noticed me. "Hi..." I didn't know if Cheerilee still recognized me, so I decided to jog her memory a little bit. I knew that the mention of her old life MIGHT kick something in. This was really starting to get ridiculous.
"You used to read to us... me, Starsong, Pinkie Pie, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, Rainbow Dash..." When I said Rainbow Dash's name, Scootaloo perked up.

"Rainbow Dash?!" she yelled, her wings fluttering excitedly. "She's my idol! How do you know her? You just got here, so..." She was hyperventilating. I smiled and put my hoof on Scootaloo's shoulder.

"Calm down. Everypony knows Rainbow Dash. She's the-" "I know!" Scootaloo replied.

"She's the fastest flyer in all of Equestria! She's awesome!" I was shocked. Rainbow Dash? Since when could Rainbow Dash fly? "This is getting RIDICULOUS!" I screamed. The fillies and Cheerilee stared. I smiled sheepishly, then ran.

It's true. Sadly to say, I have no idea who this new Rainbow Dash was. That "Twilight" pony may have added wings. No idea. That's when a blue Pegasus with a rainbow mane flew past me and made me fall into a puddle.

"HEY!" I screamed. The pegasus skidded to a halt and flew back toward me, picked me up, moved me over to a dry area, put me down and flew all around my head. When I stopped being dizzy, my mane was REALLY frizzy. I glared at the pegasus pony, who was smiling sheepishly.

"Sorry!" She flew back down and sat by me. "I guess I've been a little excited. I raised my eyebrow at her.

"A LITTLE excited?!" I couldn't believe that knocking me over and making my mane frizzy counted as a little excited.

"Maybe a LOT excited. I'm training for the Wonderbolts and I guess I wasn't looking where I was going." She brushed herself off. "By the way, who are you? I'm Rainbow Dash, the one and only!" I gasped. "So YOU'RE that imposter!" She looked confused.

"Imposter?"

"Yeah. Rainbow Dash is an earth pony who loves fashion! You are an awesome pegasus!" I stared at her expectantly, when she suddenly smirked.

"Thanks for noticing! I am an awesome pegasus!" Then she flew off. I facehoofed.
