Goldenpie

The cigar smoke laid tick inside the small private room. Curtains hanged all around the large presence in the middle of it. The cigar providing these thick layers of lung cancer was tightly jammed in the big teeth of Valentin. The Russian mob boss had four women around him. The private room was situated inside his brothel. Outside the room the pole dance music could be heard blasting. One of the women had her legs around him. She looked at him suggestively while she was grabbing him down below.

“Well, you dirty little girl!” He scolded pleasurably.

The women dancers around him giggled. The pleasure was all theirs, making it pretty much his. They had already been payed double just to be there with him. A generous offer, considering how little of their earnings that was usually left for them when the day was over. As long as nothing went wrong, that is.

The woman stood up. As she turned around there were a sudden smack, followed by a burning pain on her back. The woman gasped. Luckily she managed to hold it out of hearing. She turned around and faced her smacker. She put on a professionally masked fake smile.

"You are a dirty girl. You know that?" Valentin scolded smiling. He then hand motioned the dancers. "Now, get out of here and make me some money! That goes for all of you."

Still feeling the pain, the woman walked out of the room with her colleagues. There was a beeping sound in her ears when the tensions released inside her muscles, along with the memories of the girls that never came out of that private room again. But now it seemed like someone else didn't fear risks.

A tall presence entered the private room. The presence wore a dark fedora hat and had a long black coat. The figure sat down opposite of Valentin. Valentin opened his mouth. He was about to tell this daring man to beat it when the authoritarian face revealed itself under the hat. Valentins face frowned. The figure rose his big nose straight into the air.

“You already know why I'm here.” The man declared after a moment of silence.

“Are you playing guessing games with me Ourumov?” Valentin asked irritatingly. “Cause the last man who tried that left in a box... Oh, excuse me, five boxes. Yes, five it was.” Valentin showed five fingers.

“Are you threatening a general!” Ourumov asked firmly. Valentin pointed his chubby finger at Ourumov and shook it decisively.

“No. I am threatening a business partner. Remember Ourumov that I MADE YOU. I made the phone calls that forced the defense minister to make you general, and now i’m doing your dirty work outside of Russia...”

“And i pulled the strings that allowed you to do that. Without me you would not even had been able to set foot inside of Britain...!”

“...Yea, yea, yea. Go ahead! Pretend that i needed you all along. I could have easily pulled those strings myself.”

“Then why did you help me become a general?”

Valentin leaned forward. His eyes hardened. Ourumov and Valentin then kept interrupting each other.

“You told me that you had a plan that would make us both the riches men in the world...!”

“That was 8 years ago. I told you already Valentin, Alec Trevelyan changed his mind. He made a choice and he choose to work for the enemy...”

“And you choose to go easy on him! Had he been in my organization at the time he would have faced a silencer the moment he walked out of his apartment! But thats just the way with you two isn't there, you friends until the end mother(bleep)...?”

“I made a a judgement, and my judgement were correct. I convinced Alec to join us again...”

“YOU WENT SOFT!” Valentin roared.

This time there were silence. Ourumov straightened his coat.

“Well, it matters little now. Alec is pretty much a dead pawn anyway. What really matters now is my programmer. Tell me ‘business partner’, why have i not heard about Boris Grishenko’s demise yet? I thought i payed you to get rid of him!”

“You did, you did.” Valentin admitted. “And we’re still looking for him.” Valentin lied.

“Well. Then you just have to look HARDER.”

Valentin laughed. A mean grin formed on his face.

“As hard as you’re looking for ‘her’, Ourumov?” Valentin teased.

“As hard as I'm looking for her? Whatever do you mean?”

Valentin raised his eyebrows in a incredulous manner.

“Well now you’re playing guessing games with me general.” He said.

Ourumov stared silently at Valentin. Valentin continued, the incredulous in his voice increased as he talked.

“Don’t sit there and pretend like nobody knows, everybody knows! The way you talk about her, the way you turn when someone’s mentioning her. The things you do to that poster of her, those throwing knives, those cut marks along her pink body. You sick little (bleep) of (bleep)...!”

“You would kill her as well if you had the chance!” Ourumov fired back.

Valentin laughed meanly. He enjoyed finding this generals weak spot.

“So now what?” Valentin asked. “You told me that both of us would become the richest men in the world. I have the buyer, but i don't have the Goldeneye. I can’t sell to someone something that i don’t have.” Valentin complained.

“You’ll have the military hardware as soon as i have made sure that it is safe to sell.” Ourumov lied.

“Ourumov is going to fire the Goldeneye.” Boris warned the ponies. His thick Russian accent bounced upon his english words.

Boris Grishenko, Starlight Glimmer and MI6 agent Pinkie Pie had thrown themselves down at the dinner table inside the ponies apartment in London. In front of them coffee cups were sending up steam pillars.

“Fire it? But then we’ll have to warn the military, we have to warn...” Starlight Glimmer was interrupted.

“He’s not going to fire it on the west.” The ponies looked bewildered at Boris. “He's going to fire it at his own country. The target is Moscow. He has a private army waiting just outside the Ukraine border. Once the capital city is blackened by the Goldeneye blast he’s going to storm it and overthrow the government. After that he plans to install himself as a dictator.”

“Whats your name friend?” Pinkie Pie asked.

“Oh, yea. right. My name is Boris. Boris Grishenko.” Boris tipped his glasses upward before continuing.

“As i said, Ourumov is going to start a military coup with the help of the Goldeneye. This cannot happen! Ourumov is a micro manager and has a personal lust for control. If he succeeds every minister is probably going to be rounded up and face trial and execution. And thats just the ones in power. I do not want to think about what’s going to become of the citizen of Russia. I also do not want to think about what’s going to happen too you.” Boris looked at Pinkie Pie as he said the last part.

“Me? Whatever do you mean?” Pinkie Pie asked bewildered.

“Listen, Pinkie Pie. Ourumov might seem like a stable man that stands straight and knows exactly what he wants. But i worked for him for over a year. He is a mad man. Ever since the Severnaya attack he has had a picture of you on his wall. He uses it for target practice. He’s obsessed with you Pinkie Pie. He hates you.”

Pinkie Pies face lowered in sadness.

“Hate me? But why? I know I'm an enemy, but this seems a little crazy.”

“Ourumov is crazy.” Boris said darkly. ”That is why you have to either kill him or take the Goldeneye away from him. Thats the only way you are going to stop him.”

“You said ‘ever since Severnaya’.” Starlight remarked. “How do you know all this Boris?” Starlight looked suspiciously at him.

“Because i helped Ourumov steal the Goldeneye.” Boris let out.

Starlight looked blankly at Boris. She didn’t know what to feel. She was there when all those innocent programers were murdered. Boris sensed her conflict.

“Listen. I didn’t know that there would be so much bloodshed, i swear. At first i tried to live with it but eventually the guilt of what happened became to much. That was why i defected from Ourumov.”

Pinkie Pie looked at Boris suspiciously. She sensed that there was more to it than that.

“But there’s more to it than that. Isn’t it Boris?” Pinkie Pie asked while looking at him sympathetically.

“More to it? What do you mean?” Boris dropped face revealed to Pinkie Pie that he already pictured her.

“You lost someone special in that attack. Didn’t you?” Pinkie Pie asked.

Pinkie Pies intuitions didn’t fail her. She wasn’t the only one that had tried to remember life instead of death. A tear formed in Boris right eye. He snorted and wiped it away.

“I didn’t know...” Boris cracked. Suddenly everything came at once. He took of his glasses and hid his face behind his hands as the tears ran down his cheeks. He tried to continue.

“They were all good comrades. I was crushed to see them all dead, even though i probably should have known.” Boris wiped the tears from his eyes. Starlight and Pinkie Pie looked at him sympathetically as he continued with a broken voice

“But as i saw all those bodies i told myself that maybe i could live with it. Until...” Boris snorted again.

“Until what?” Starlight asked.

“...Until i saw her.” Boris started crying again.

After another minute of crying Boris was able to pull himself together. He spoke slowly to the ponies.

“She was a level 2 programmer. She was responsible for the guidance system at the station. I worked with her for only a year but i never knew, i never knew...”

“That you would fall in love with her.” Starlight Glimmer put the words in his mouth. Boris hesitated before answering proudly.

“Yes. Yes i’s true. I was always bad with women, i know. But with her i felt like all that was ok. I felt like i could be myself. I wanted to grow old with her, i wanted to raise kids with her...” Boris paused. “I wanted to marry her.” Boris felt the anger boil up inside him.

“...And then they killed her. THEY KILLED HER!” He roared and slammed his fist onto the table, the coffee tipping over as he did.

“But what was her name?” Pinkie Pie asked.

“Natalya Fyodorova Simonova.” Boris answered.

“Starlight?” Twilight spoke inside Starlights head.

“Yes Twilight!” Starlight answered without thinking. Boris looked at her in bewilderment. His eyebrows rose slightly. Starlight looked at him with diminished pupils and laughed nervously.

“Hehehe. Yes! Twilight is the time of day alright. So sparkle and so full of magic!” Starlight threw her hoof in a ‘bet ya’ manner. Boris face did not move.

“Eh, heheh. hurm.” Starlight pretended to cough. ”Excuse us for a moment.”

Starlight and Pinkie Pie went into the bedroom to have a session with Twilight outside the movie. In Equestria Twilight looked at the TV screen with hopeless eyes.

“So Natalya is dead?” Rarity asked

“So it seems.” Twilight concluded weakly. A pegasus pony started breathing heavily.

“But how is the story ever going to be finished without her?!” Fluttershy asked in panic.

Twilight looked saddened at the TV screen. Inside the movie Pinkie Pie and Starlight looked nervously at each other. The silence were complete. The underlying notion that Starlight and Pinkie Pie would be stuck inside the movie forever pressed down on the group.

“Then we create our own!” Ash Ketchum blasted.

The movie goers wailed their heads around and looked at the Pokemon trainer. Ash got nervous.

“On the other hand, never mind.” Ash shrunk and grabbed his neck. The movie goers looked at each other in bewilderment. Starlight though for a moment about what Ash said. Her face lit up in excitement.

“No. I want to hear!” She exclaimed.

“Huh?” Ash blurted.

“I want to hear what you had to say Ash!” Starlights eyes sparkled with energy. Ash raised his arms.

“Well? I just thought that...” Ash hesitated. His face remained in hesitation as he gave in. “...That we have the secret agent, we have her sidekick, we have the nerdy hacker and we have a threatening villain that plans to take over the world. Why let it all go to waste? Why not just create a new story? If the movie decides later that he wants to be a dry head about it then it’s his loss. At least then we’ll have a great story.”

“Pika!” Pikachu approved cutely.

There was a long silence. Twilight looked at the TV screen. She caught sight of Starlights mean grin. Twilight smiled.

“You know what Ash? You’re totally right! It’s not like the movie hasn’t sinned itself. I mean, i never saw Jaws having a role in Goldeneye. Did you girls?”

The ponies all looked around at each other. There were a unison mumble of agreement. Twilight wailed her determined eyes toward Littlefoot. Earlier Littlefoot had been the one to convince them all that they should respect the movie by not changing it at their own will. Littlefoot was taken a back. He wailed his eyes around the room. He then said hesitantly.

“Well. I guess part about having respect for a movie by not changing it at your own will must be...” Littlefoot sighed. His longneck face twisted in anger. “...must be to be honest with it and tell it when it’s time for it to go ahead and fuck itself.”

Peter Dinklage turned to Littlefoot. His eyebrows raised.

“Woa there! ...Main character spawning 13 popular straight to DVD children movie sequels.”

Littlefoot raised his eyebrows incredulously.

“I’m 29!” He exclaimed.

The European highway seemed to stretch for miles as the two ponies and the human were traveling along it inside Pinkie Pies Aston Martin. All around them large mountains rose majestically. Below them the cliffs dropped, revealing some forrest patches below. They had been driving for a while. They were now looking searching an opening, free from other humans. Boris was getting nervous.

“So? Who exactly are these ‘friends’ of yours?” Boris asked the ponies for the tenth time, secretly worried that he might be about to disappear soon.

“Look Pinkie, there!” Starlight pointed her hoof at a gravel area beside the road.

The group got out of the car. Boris looked nervously at the ponies as they stood in the middle of the opening.

“Alright Twilight. You can send her now!” Starlight glimmer shouted out into the blue.

Boris laughed nervously. He was getting ready to make a run for it before the ceremony was about to start. In that moment there was a bright flash. Boris covered his eyes. Slowly he lowered them again. His eyes widened in disbelief. Right in front of him another pony seemed to have appeared out of thin air. The pony was light brown and had her mane tied into a knot in a country manner. She looked bewildered at him, then at the scenery.

“Woooyeee, this is amazing!” The pony had a thick American country accent. “Howdy partner.” The pony greeted as she looked at him.

There were the sound of snorting.

“Apple Jack.” Pinkie Pie approached teary eyed her country friend that she hadn't seen for over a year in movie time count. Starlight followed shortly after. All three ponies hugged each other. The ponies had agreed that they would only send one pony at the time just in case the movie would become unstable. Apple Jack was aware the risks, along with the fact that Twilight still couldn't send her back again before the movie was finished. Fluttershy and Rarity had said no so far, fearing the loud gun fire. Twilight had also chosen to stay behind since they needed the link between the movie and Equestria.

“So? Where’d we go now?” Apple Jack asked confounded.

“Check that device again Pinkie Pie.” Starlight said, referring to a small portable map screen connected to the MI6. Pinkie Pie picked it up but hit a patrol once she had it.

“It’s password protected.”

“Huh?” Starlight Glimmer blurted.

“Oh, yea. It may have been me. I just wanted to take a small peak and see were we where, just for curiosity.” Boris Grishenko lied.

“But this was password protected. How did you get in?” Starlight asked.

The former Russian level 1 hacker Boris Grishenko looked confidently at Starlight as if to say. ‘Oh please.’

“Alright. So whats the password now?” Starlight asked.

Boris looked around the scenery. Starlight frowned

“Boris?”

Boris hummed a tune to himself. He wailed his head around arrogantly.

“Boris!”

Boris looked at Starlight again. He laughed and started walking toward her.

“I though i’d post it on the internet, you know.”

“Whats the password?” Starlight repeated the question.

“I made it easy this time.” He nodded his head. “Even you should be able to break it.”

Starlight grumped. Pinkie Pie held her mouth as she contained her laughter.

“Alright, alright. I give you a hint... ‘They’re right in front of you and can open very large doors’.”

Starlight looked angrily at Boris. She had a silvery pencil in her hoof. She pressed it two times to relieve the stress. Pinkie Pie looked seriously at it.

‘Two clicks.’ She noted

Starlights horn started glowing. She had the device in her other hoof as she used her magic to try and break Boris code. She clicked nervously at the pencil.

‘One click.’ Pinkie Pie noted.

Inside Starlights head suggestions of the answer started pouring in from the movie goers.

“Is it ‘Key’?” Fluttershy asked happily

“Is it ‘Handle’?” Twilight guessed exited.

“Oh! I know! Try ‘Mouth’!” Rainbow Dash blasted.

Most of the guesses came from Littlefoot, who's enthusiastic voice jittered Twilights transmission.

“...Is it codeword? Password?... Door picks?... Sledge?...Hammer?... Influences?... Power?... Relativity?...Chaos?...The Circle Of Life?“ The answers quickly started to soar the skies, leading Starlight further and further away from ‘Knockers’.

‘One click followed by four clicks.’

Starlight started to sweat, her horn glowing more and more fiercely. The device kept on denying her.

‘Two clicks followed by one click.’ Pinkie Pies serious eyes studied the pencil. Apple Jack was happy.

“Well, take me on a cart and hoof me all the way to heaven fillies, how long did ye all say you been here? I wonder if one’d be able to grow apple trees here?”

Apple Jacks thick country accent circulated Starlights head, putting all the answer she’d received already on repeat. Except this time they all wore fedora hats and mud boots. By the time Relativity was feeding the household pigs Starlight Glimmer snapped.

‘Three clicks!’

Starlight turned to Boris, her throat covered in vanes underneath her furious face.

“GIVE ME THE CODES BORIS GRISHENKO! GIVE THEM TO ME!”

Pinkie Pie slammed her hoof at Starlights, causing the pencil to fly into the nearby ditch. A large bang filled the air. Starlight looked bewildered at the growing dust cloud ahead.

“What was that?!”

“It was an exploding pen.” Pinkie Pie informed. “Q made it. Three clicks and it turns into a grenade of apocalyptic inferno and mass destruction!”

“But why didn’t you say anything?!” Starlight wailed.

Pinkie Pies hanging mane puffed up. There were the sound of confetti popping.

“Of course not silly. That would have ruined the surprise!” Pinkie Pies party smile widened in front of Starlights frowned face.

“Can i plant one in that there ditch now?” Apple Jack countrysided.

Apple Jacks face sunk. Her mouth fluffed up repeatedly as she blocked her desire to throw up. She looked out of the car window while traveling inside Pinkie Pies Aston Martin.

“I told you Apple Jack. Keep your eyes on the road in front of the car.” Starlight reminded Apple Jack.

Apple Jack had never traveled inside a car before. Her head spun around in circles as she tried to get used to the moving vehicle.

“Turn left here.” Boris Grishenko guided Pinkie Pie.

The group were heading for one of Boris’s many hideouts. An abandoned school house. It would have a MAC and IP protected computer and be situated in perfect distance from Ourumov’s troops. It would allow for Boris and Starlight to hack into his military system and plan the retaking of the Goldeneye.

“Uuuuuh, are we there yet?” Apple Jack mumbled, her eyes half shut.

“Soon. Just a little more.” Boris said.

Around the ponies the mountainside passed by. The sound of Pinkie Pies Aston Martin sent long echoes. The only other thing sounding was the wind as it slided against it’s stony roughness. There then were the sound of something flapping. The flapping was constant, almost machinery like. It became louder and louder. It was now that Pinkie Pie inside the car started hearing it. Her first thought was a strong hurricane flapping against the sides of the car, but then it sounded more like cutting. Almost like a blade was spinning around. Or a rotor?

In that exact moment a presence rose from the cliffs below the road. It swayed back and forth as it hovered. The rotor blade spun above it, a small one spun at its tail. The lower side of the helicopter had a wing like contraption with ten missiles. Two mini guns were placed at the sides. In the middle there was a windshield. Inside the windshield a lipstick wearing woman with leather clothes were smiling pleasurably. Behind her she had a co pilot.

“Hello ponies. Miss me?” Xenia Onatopp said through the large speaker of the chopper. At the same moment the mini guns started rotating.

“HOLD ON!!!” Pinkie Pie screamed.

Apple Jack, Starlight Glimmer and Boris were violently pressed against their seats as Pinkie Pie slammed the acceleration pedal to the floor. She started driving zig zag. A popping sound filled the air as the mini guns started firing 5000 rounds per minute. The bullet proof windows of the Aston Martin absorbed the bullets. But the large caliber of the mini guns caused them to crack slightly.

“What in the world is going on!?” Apple Jack wailed in panic. Around her the jittering sound the bullets hitting the car slammed against her ears. There were a swooshing sound. The chopper had fired a heat seeking missile. Pinkie Pie pressed a silvery button. The backside of the Aston Martin lit up as flares were deployed. There were a large explosion rocking the car when the missile exploded mid air.

“Oaaaaaah!” Apple Jack screamed horrified, almost tumbling over Starlight.

Pinkie Pie pressed another button. Two large guns appeared behind the car. A TV screen with a crosshair appeared in front of the first ever pony MI6 agent. Pinkie Pie pressed the button at the top of the gear lever. Xenia Onatopp dogged the bullet rain from the car by pulling the chopper sideways.

There were another swoosh. A cliff exploded in front of the car, sending a huge rock tumbling down. Pinkie Pie steered sideways. Apple Jack gasped as the it sailed by only inches away from the side window, her eyes diminished in pure panic. She had barely been able to pull it together while the car was driving normally.

In Equestria the TV screen reflected inside the panicked lavender eyes Twilight Sparkle. She was biting her hooves.

“Twilight!” Rainbow Dash was trying to get her attention.

Inside the movie a tree had been shot down by the mini guns. It fell over the road. Pinkie Pie turned the gear lever, causing the car to change weapon. She pulled the trigger. There was a popping sound in front of the car followed by a loud blast. Wooden pieces from the obliterated tree jittered the car’s sides. A missile sailed by above the car. It turned around ahead, heading straight for the car. Pinkie Pie were able to veer at the last second. The blast of the missile hitting the ground sounded just outside of Apple Jacks window.

“OAAAAAH! Help! Please! Someone Help me!” Apple Jack wailed.

“We need to take down that chopper somehow!” Starlight screamed.

In that same moment there was a huge explosion. Except for the ponies it wasn’t an explosion, just a thin beeping sound inside their ears.

The Aston Martin went sailing through the air, spinning around in circles. It landed on the grass. Cows galloped horrified from the scene as the car went sliding, creating a crater of dirt behind it.

Apple Jack opened her eyes. The world were blurry. She could still hear the beeping sound inside her ears. As the world cleared around her she saw the chopper hover above. She imagined this being the last thing she saw.

‘Good bye granny smith. Be sure to raise Apple Bloom and help her lead the farm in the future.’ She thought to herself.

There was a swooshing sound, followed by a crack. Suddenly the chopper was thrown sideways. Xenia gasped. Part of the windshield had been shattered. She turned her hovering bringer of death and faced her attacker.

Rainbow Dash’s wings flapped majestically against the patching sun behind her. Her red eyes glared cocky at the clumsy machine. A pleasuring voice sounded through its speakers.

“Oh. Another blue one? Are you going to scream and beg like that unicorn did when i whipped her?”

Rainbow Dash’s cocky face showed no sign if flinching. Her rainbow mane sent colored beams against Xenia's flying monster.

“Oh, such beautiful wings you have. A shame that i have to ruin them!” Xenia snarled. The mini guns started rotating.

Rainbow Dash dove toward the ground. She heard the popping sound of the mini guns along with the flowing bullet streams pass her by. She sailed around the chopper and landed another hit. Xenia's gasping could be heard from the speakers.

The rainbow pony kept circulating the chopper. Xenia tried to turn around and get a clear shot but Rainbow Dash was just way to fast. Xenia's moaning quickly changed into annoyed growling.

“Can you please be still so that i can blow you up into little pieces?!” Xenia asked incredulously.

Rainbow Dash rocketed toward the shopper. She made a sudden zig zag move, fooling Xenia to fire the mini guns in the wrong direction. She landed another hit on the windshield. The crack became bigger. She quickly disappeared again above the clouds.

“Oh. You annoying Rainbow. Would you please just die!” Xenia roared. She ascended the chopper until she was above the clouds. She saw the rainbow ahead. The heat seeker gave a beeping sound. It became static once it detected the blue pony.

“I have something for you. ONLY FOR YOU!” Xenia roared and fired the heat seeking missile.

Rainbow Dash heard a burning sound behind her.

“It’s a heat seeking missile Rainbow Dash!” Twilight screamed inside her head.

“Yea! I know that!” Rainbow Dash shouted irritatingly.

Rainbow Dash started flying zig zag, hearing the burning sound of the missile turning behind her. She wailed her head around. She saw Xenia's shopper hover about above the clouds. Its mini guns started firing again. Rainbow Dash turned around and flew straight toward it.

She twisted and turned, hearing the bullets sail right past her head. She thought she felt her mane get cut. The burning missile closed in behind her. Xenia's shouts echoed the sky.

“Only for you Rainbow Pony! Only for you!”

Rainbow Dash felt the choppers bullet stream swoosh above her. At that exact moment Rainbow Dash descended below the chopper. She then turned upward, flying toward the rotating tail blade. She turned sideways and flew past, barely touching it. She heard a huge explosion behind her when the missile hit the tail.

“To slow!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed cockily and turned around. She watched proudly as the chopper spun downward ahead, leaving behind a tail of black smoke and fire. She noticed something sharp shimmering in the sun. Suddenly Rainbow Dash felt like a part of her had been lost.

The blue rainbow pony jerked. Her body went sailing in one direction, her right wing the other. There were a small spurt of blood. The loosened tail blade kept falling toward the ground, slightly bloodied.

“RAINBOW DASH! NO!” Twilight wailed in Equestria.

Starlight Glimmer galloped as fast as her hooves could carry her. She saw Rainbow Dash falling ahead. Starlights horn gave a glow, turning a tree into a huge bouncing castle. It crumbled once the Rainbow Dash fell into it. Behind the castle there were a loud crash when Xenia's chopper crumbled into the forrest.

Pinkie Pie saw the chopper crash further ahead. She galloped faster, knowing she only had seconds to catch Xenia if she survived. Once she had broken through the last bush she saw the chopper stuck inside a tree. The windshield was open, but no pilot was in it. Xenia had escaped!

“Curse!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed. There were a rustling sound. Someone was running ahead.

The co pilot thought he heard hoofs behind him. He pulled out his magnum. He wailed around and fired, its high caliber blast echoing among the trees. He looked around. But he saw no one. His hand started shaking. He turned around. He felt his nose flatten before falling backwards. A pink hoof pressed down his hand once he laid on the ground, causing him to loose grip of the revolver.

“Who are you working for?!” A highly pitched voice demanded.

Once Starlight Glimmer arrived at the crumbled bouncing castle she frantically started turning its plastic walls. The walls had laid themselves in layers above the pony below. It felt like she had turned plastic for a days once the last turning revealed the blue pony. But Rainbow Dash wasn’t blue anymore. She was red. A red mess of blood and feathers. A large puddle was forming under her body. Starlight felt her hoofs weaken.

“Oh no.” She whispered.

Boris followed Starlight, still groggy from the car crash. Starlight felt somepony bump her flank. Her eyes widened in disbelief.

“Fluttershy!?”

“Yes! Twilight sent me here! But theres no time, we need to cover up her severed wing and stop the bleeding now!” Fluttershy blasted.

“Only for you... Only for you...”

The last words of Xenia circulated Rainbow Dashs head. It made her dizzy. It wasn’t good she thought. It was never good to be dizzy when flying. She felt no wind current changes. Her mane did not waver in the way it usually does.

“Only for you... Only for you...”

Rainbow Dash looked to her right, then her left. Her wings flapped as they should. Her feathers wavered against the wind. Strangely the wind did not cool her underneath them. The night around her was bright with stars along with the the loom of the hovering full moon.

“Only for you... Only for you...”

Rainbow Dash felt her head spin faster and faster in circles. She felt herself fall, tumbling sideways. She crumbled into the darkness below that had no ground.

Rainbow Dash woke up. She thought she saw roof lights above her. They spun around in circles as she tried too look at them. She found herself shaking in cold.

“Aaaaah!” She wailed.

She had fever. She immediately felt that she had. And it wasn’t a pretty, a small happy excuse to not show up for wonderbolt training and read Darin Do instead.

‘Only for you...Only for you...’. Xenia's voice kept on circulating her mind. Her head spun faster the more it did.

“Aaaaah!” She wailed louder.

There were the sound of hoofs hitting hard floor.

“There, there. Easy Rainbow Dash.” She heard Fluttershy say. “Don’t get yourself worked up.”

‘Only for you...’

Rainbow Dash felt the panic rise. She started wailing her wings around. It was now that Rainbow Dash felt her brain being pulled to the left in a strange way.

‘Only for you...’

“Ahaaaaa!”

“Easy Rainbow Dash. Easy.” Fluttershy said.

Rainbow Dash felt a hoof touch her forehead. She didn’t know who it was, even though she just heard Fluttershy’s voice. Her head spun so fast she couldn’t see anything in front of her. She felt herself fall into a vacuum again.

Rainbow Dash was flying, soaring the breeze as it came. It still didn’t feel cold. The night sky was open with white clouds underneath her.

‘Only for you...” Xenia's words still went on repeat. Rainbow Dash started feeling dizzy again.

The night sky was suddenly filled with the presence of a big object. A giant book came soaring underneath her. The book was open. It only had one big letter in it. The letter sparkled. A shimmering light came rocketing out of it. A missile...ONLY FOR TOU!!!

Rainbow Dash panicked and opened her eyes. The world spun around her like an everlasting carousel.

“Waaaaaaa!”

Rainbow Dash felt something wet and cold laying on her forehead.

“There there. Rainbow Dash. easy.” Fluttershy was speaking softly and gentle. ”I made you this ice bag. It’s good for the fever you know, since it cools you down.”

Every word Fluttershy said felt like a cold pillow being pushed gently against her body. Rainbow Dash felt herself calm down slightly. As her brain finally got some peace she found that she had no idea what was going on. Rainbow Dash was scared. She started shaking again. She snorted. Tears formed in her eyes.

“Fluttershy.” She called with a broke voice.

“Easy. Rainbow Dash. Hold on, you’re in chock. I’m sorry but i might as well tell you. Your right wing has been severed, but I'm sure its noting that can't be fixed.”

For some reason Rainbow Dash didn’t react to that horrifying information. All that she could say was her name.

“Fluttershy.” She sobbed again. Rainbow Dash was crying of fear as well of the severe fever. She felt Fluttershys hoof grab hold of her hoof. There it stayed as her own tears slowly put her to sleep.

Rainbow Dash was flying again. She saw that light rise from the open book again. She readied herself to escape the missile. But for some reason she didn’t feel scared. The light flew away from her. It wasn’t a missile, it couldn’t be.

‘Only for you...’ Xenia said in a softer, teasing voice.

Curious, Rainbow Dash flew after the light. She flew after Xenia

‘Only for you...’

In front of her the light kept on flying away. It lead Rainbow Dash into eternity.

Rainbow Dash woke up. The world wasn't spinning anymore. She could se the roof lights above her, still and slightly flickering. Rainbow Dash tried to rise up but she felt herself falling the the right. She looked right. She saw the beginning of her right wing. It abruptly ended with a large bandage. But she wasn’t surprised. Fluttershy had already told her the truth. Around her a large number of simple chairs were placed behind school benches. A board was placed at the end with a teacher altar. She looked down. She was lying on a cloud

“I made you a bed.” Fluttershy said.

Rainbow Dash turned to Fluttershy. She was sitting at the other end of the room. Her eyes sparkled with worry, Yet a smile festered on her face .

“Rainbow Dash, how are you feeling?”

“Where am i?” Rainbow Dash asked instead of answering.

“I know it must be confusing Rainbow Dash. You have been asleep for almost 5 days.”

“5 days?!” Rainbow Dash whispered incredulously. She was about to ask what she had missed. Her thoughts instead went to the wonderbolts. She imagined all those trophies that she had won from being the fastest flyer. She felt a dark panic rise within her along with her breathing.

“I’m not a pegasus...” Rainbow Dash mumbled. She turned to Fluttershy and raised her voice slightly.

“I’m not a pegasus.”

Fluttershys eyebrows shrunk.

“I’m not a pegasus!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

“Rainbow Dash. Calm down.” Fluttershy started walking toward her.

“I’m not a pegasus!!!” Rainbow Dash wailed.

“Yes you are, calm down!” Fluttershy started panicking herself.

“Im never gonna fly again! I’m finished! I’M NOT A PEGASUS!!!”

Rainbow Dash felt her head start spinning again. She fell backwards down onto the soft cloud. As she laid there she felt Fluttershy grab hold of her hoof. She tried to feel her right wing. She tried to stretch her feathers. She felt like she did, but in a way she didn’t. She started to moan again as the phantom pain set in. She started shaking.

“Rainbow Dash. It’s going to be alright. You’re inside a...” Fluttershy’s voice faded as Rainbow Dash passed out from chock.

Rainbow Dash flapped her wings. She flapped them faster than she had ever flapped them before. She was chasing the light coming out of the book.

‘Only for you...’ Xenia whispered. Her voice had started to grow softer. Rainbow Dash closed in on the light. She expected to see Xenia's chopper as it faded. Instead she saw wings spread out ahead.

‘Only for you...’ The soft voice spoke. It didn’t sound at all like Xenia anymore. The yellow pegasus pony turned to Rainbow Dash and looked at her. She opened her mouth.

“Only for you.”

Rainbow Dash opened her eyes again. She took a minute to get used to the light. She saw Fluttershy sitting in a chair close by. She turned and looked at her.

“Rainbow Dash, you’re awake.” She spoke.

Rainbow Dash got up and sat herself at the side of the cloud. She looked around. Around her clouds had been formed into sculptures. Plants had been placed in vases alongside it.

“I made sure to make things as comfortable as possible for you.” Fluttershy said.

“Why?” Was all Rainbow Dash could ask. Fluttershys face bent in bewilderment.

“What do you mean, why?” She asked.

“Why does it matter? I’m done. I’m finished. Theres no place for me in Cloudsdale. Theres no place for me in the wonderbolts. There no place for...”

“Oh. But Rainbow Dash.” Fluttershy interrupted Rainbow Dash. She smiled. She didn’t seemed bothered at all. ”That’s another story.”

“Another story?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“You’re talking about your story that you live in Equestria. But we are inside a movie now Rainbow Dash, this doesn’t need to be that story.”

Rainbow Dash looked bewildered at Fluttershy. Fluttershy got up on her hooves. She walked up to Rainbow Dash and looked straight into her eyes.

“This could be a new story.”

“A new story?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“Yes...Yes...A new sto...ry” Fluttershys voice faded as her beautiful blue eyes became dreamy. She grabbed hold of Rainbow Dashs hoof. “A new story... Only for you.”

Rainbow Dash eyes widened at the familiar voice.

“What kind of story?” Rainbow Dash asked.

“What kind of story would you prefer?” Fluttershy asked.

Rainbow Dash thought about it for a moment. She felt every worry she recently had fade away. She opened her mouth and spoke the only phrase she could think of.

“...For your eye’s only.”

Fluttershys pupils widened. She leaned slightly forward and nudged her head in a ‘come here’ manner. Rainbow Dash felt the fever rise again. But this wasn’t that kind of fever. She felt her heart beat up to her head as she slowly realized that Fluttershys wide eyes were not caring, but suggestive. Fluttershy closed her eyes half way and leaned forward. She stopped as her nose barely touched hers.

Suddenly a memory passed by, a memory from long ago. A memory about a shy little filly pegasus, living in cloudsdale, that were constantly tormented by bullies. Rainbow Dash recalled the pride she felt after she had defended this shy little filly. 'Whats your name?' she had asked. The answer she recieved that day she now spoke herself in whisper.

"Fluttershy..." Rainbow Dash felt her mouth widen as Fluttershy suddenly came. Her breath shifted to her nose. Her lips made smaking sounds as she moved her head. Her Hooves reached around her back. Her yellow wings unfolded slightly. She moved in on her and gently laid her down into the cloud

‘For...your...eyes...only...” Rainbow Dash whispered in-between feeling Fluttershys mouth against hers. Rainbow Dash felt Fluttershy lay her wings under her head like a pillow. She didn’t need her right wing, she had Fluttershy’s now that kept her from tumbling down the high sky that she soared.
