The Alternates

“Where is that stubborn bunny?” Rainbow Dash said, flying over Ponyville. She looked around until she saw a fluffy white tail bounce into the Towne Hall.

"Gotcha now, stupid bunny." Dash said. She zoomed over to the entrance of the Towne Hall and looked inside. Angel Bunny was hopping around and she didn't see anypony else in the room. Rainbow slowly opened the door and didn't find herself in the Towne Hall. The only thing she saw was a pitch-black wall. At least she thought it was a wall. Rainbow Dash put one hoof on it and almost fell in. So this wasn't a wall.

Then what is this? She thought. She slowly flew in and the door slammed shut behind her. Dash zoomed over, expecting to hit the door, but only hit nothing. What was this place? She landed. At least there was a floor. Rainbow Dash started walking around and almost fell at one point. She realized there was a slight brightness to the floor she was walking on. And down below it was also pitch black, just like the rest of the place. She gulped and followed the path. It was taking forever so she decided to fly. But the second Rainbow spread her wings, they shut. She did this several times just to have her wings shut again every time.

"Ug." Rainbow said, annoyed. So she had to keep walking. What seemed like half an hour later, Rainbow Dash was staring at what looked like a mansion.

"What is this?" She said. She knocked but nopony answered. She knocked again. The door suddenly opened and Rainbow was yanked in. Her hooves and wings were tied up. That meant she could fly in this place.

"We've been waiting for you." a voice said. Dash could tell it was a female. But she sounded a lot like her.

"Who are you? And who's 'We'?" she asked. Rainbow tried to look behind her but her head was held down.

"Don't you know us?" said another voice behind her.

"I can't even see you two! How am I supposed to know?" Rainbow Dash shouted.

"Two? Who said there were only two of us?" another pony said. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the pony's hoof and a lab coat. The hoof was the same color as her. Cyan. She also saw a bit of a Rainbow colored tail.

"What…" Rainbow said, trying to remember who else she knew who looked like that.

"Jesus fucking Christ. Clean yourself up first. You're a bigger fucking mess than me." said the pony on top of me.

"What? DO YOU REALLY THINK I had the FUCKING TIME to CLEAN MYSELF UP? YOU CALLED ME THE SECOND ALL THE BITCHES WERE GRINDED!!! HOW the FUCK WAS I SUPPOSED TO GET ALL THIS FUCKING BLOOD OFF IN DAMNED TIME, BITCH???" the pony Rainbow Dash saw screamed.

"Jesus Harold Christ." the third pony said.

"Can you both just stop swearing? You both swear every day." said the second pony. A gunshot was heard from another room.

"GOD DAMN IT, RAINBINE!" the pony on top of Rainbow Dash yelled.

"WHO CARES???" yelled Rainbine from another room. The gunshot sounded again.

"Oh my god RAINBINE!!! STOP SHOOTING WHATEVER YOU'RE SHOOTING!!!" the pony on top of Dash said. She got off of her and headed towards the room where this Rainbine pony was. She shook her head and looked around.

"Oh. My. Celestia." Rainbow Dash said as she looked around.

"Why do all of you look like me but also look so different from me?" Rainbow asked.

"Like, we look like this. Duh. Though I'm not sure. Like, at all. Asked her." a pony with a hat and scarf on said, pointing at another pony. And of course, they looked like Rainbow Dash.

"Who cares. Why not go into the abyss instead? It's wonderful there." said the other pony, who was wearing a black dress, black eyeshadow, black earring, black shoes, and black hair tips.

"Oh, shut up, Rainbow Goth. She didn't ask you yet." said the pony.

"I know, you sassy pants. You don't have to tell me." said Rainbow Goth.

"Hey! Let go of me!" Rainbow Dash heard Rainbine yell behind her. She was dragged out of the room by the pony who was holding Rainbow Dash down earlier.

"Ow! CHUCKY!!!" Rainbine hollered. "SHUT UP!!!" the pony with the lab coat on yelled in Rainbine's… could you call that an ear?

"Rainbow Factory Dash! Quit screaming in my ear! That's the fifth time today!" Rainbine shouted.

"Who the fuck cares?" Rainbow Factory Dash yelled. Chucky threw Rainbine onto the floor and dragged Rainbow Dash into another room, untying the rope and thrusting her into a dark room, dimly lit by a single lightbulb.

"Somepony else will come later. For now, this where you're staying." Chucky said and slammed the door shut, locking it. Rainbow Dash spread her wings, wincing a bit. The ropes had been too tight. Rainbow heard a tick. Then a tock.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. It was starting to get annoying. She saw a clock and smashed it onto the floor. But it continued to tick and tock. She covered her ears. But even though she had only been in the room for a minute, the tick-tocking was now replaying in her head, annoying herself. She tried to think of something else, but the only thing she could think of was the annoying tick-tocking of the clock.

Five minutes later, it had started to drive her crazy. Rainbow Dash bucked at the door. But it didn't budge. She continued to buck it. But it still didn't budge. She continued to buck the door. But it was useless. The door was locked and had barely a dent in it. Rainbow was stuck in an unknown place until she was freed. But when?
