Chapters Author's Note
This is a fanfic I started back in 2013, but abandoned without even putting it on my computer. I've decided to finish it. I actually started it before Equestria Girls and Magical Mystery Cure happened, and had to modify it afterwards (which actually helped it since the story featured humans). And had to do a couple more to match what happened up to the end of season 9.
As for the two worlds: Dar Shan is the place in the 1986 Hanna Barbera cartoon "Wildfire" (one of my favorites in the 80's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJIMsnEoxts ), and (doesn't really need an explanation) Rainbow Land is from Rainbow Brite.
1: The Split
The mane six, plus Starlight and Spike had gathered in the castle to watch Twilight try out some new spells. Most were simple, including one that gave earth and pegasus ponies fake horns.
"OK you four here we go," Twilight said to Applejack, Pinkie, Dash, and Fluttershy as she started the spell. After about 15 seconds of concentration beams shot out of her horn for their heads, and instantly they had their own.
"Oh my. I'm an alicorn now", Fluttershy said.
"Aww yeah! Eat your heart out Cadance!" yelled Dash.
"Welcome to the elite you two," Rarity said to Pinkie and AJ.
"It's nice but it interferes with mah' hat," Applejack replied as she tried to put her hat back on.
"Tee hee hee this is awesome! Even though it doesn't work I've gotta find a use for it," Pinkie said. Then for just a second there was a faint trace of magic aura.
"D...did I just see some magic come from Pinkie's?" Starlight said.
"I saw it too!" added Spike.
"Well that's weird. Must have been left over from the spell", replied Twilight.
"So how long does it last?" Dash asked.
"Until I switch it back," Twilight replied. She then zapped them again and the horns were gone.
"So does it only work on ponies?" Commented Spike. Twilight then zapped him, giving him a horn, making the others laugh.
"Behold Princess Spike!" cracked Starlight.
"GAAAH get it off!" Spike yelled as he tried to get it off. Twilight giggled and zapped him back.
"So what do you think Starlight?" Twilight asked.
"Pretty good," She then zapped Twilight with her own spell. She now had two horns and four wings.
"GAAAAAAAAAH!!" Yelled Twilight. The others laughed.
"But easy," she said as she changed Twilight back.
"OK you got me," replied Twilight. "You did give me an idea though."
"Like what?" asked Starlight.
Twilight concentrated for a bit, then hit Glimmy with a beam, changing hers to a kirin horn.
"A kirin horn"? Starlight tried using her magic and the horn glowed like a kirin's does, and her magic still worked.
"Hey it's working!" Dash said.
"I'm definitely going to work on that one some more. Maybe I can do a full kirin transformation spell," Twilight said.
"Can you change it back now?" Starlight asked. Twilight hit her with a magic beam again, and her horn returned to normal.
"So what's next?" Rarity asked.
"The big one. As you know I can teleport myself and others to a location, but only to one spot. I've been working on one that will teleport ponies to two or even more spots.
"That could be handy, but how much magic power will it take?." Starlight asked.
"That I don't know, and won't until I try it," Twi replied.
"And you need us to try it out on right?" asked Applejack.
"Yes. To be safe we'll split into only two groups. Applejack, Fluttershy; you'll come with me.
"Are you coming with us Starlight?" Rarity asked.
"No thanks. I'll stay here", she replied."If you get it to work I'd definitely like to learn it though."
"Sure," replied book horse." Now get together in groups everypony." And the two groups gathered.
"So where will you send us?" Fluttershy asked.
"I'll send us to the Dragon Lands, and them to Rainbow Falls," she replied. "Ember has a couple of books on dragon culture she wants to give me."
"Well let's do it then!" exclaimed Pinkie Pie.
"See you later," Spike said.
Twilight's horn started glowing as she started the spell. It took a bit to ramp it up, then just as she was about to unleash it, the castle door burst open.
"Mail is here!" Derpy had crashed into the door and skidded inside, startling Twilight as she cast the spell. Both groups disappeared.
"Where did they go?" Derpy asked.
"Twilight was trying a spell that sends them to two different places. I hope you didn't mess it up," replied Starlight.
"Oops. Sorry," replied Derpy.
"I've got a bad feeling about this," added Spike.
There was a flash, and Twilight, Applejack, and Fluttershy found themselves at their destination... Or so they thought.
"Well, did we make it?" Fluttershy asked.
Twilight looked around. There were no dragons in sight, and the vegetation looked different from what she saw before.
"We might not be in the Dragon Lands," replied Twi.
"Ah nuts Derpy barging in must have messed up yer' spell," commented AJ.
"S-so were are we?" Fluttershy said, shaking a bit.
"I... I don't know!"
"Terrific." snapped Applejack as she stomped her hoof. "Ah should've just stayed..."
They heard some voices and hoofsteps from behind a row of bushes.
"Let's see who that is," Twilight said. And they went over and peaked through the bushes. A strange blue mule like creature was coming up the road pulling a wagon with two more strange creatures in it, whom were talking to each other.
"What are those?" asked Fluttershy. Twilight was shocked.
"They're... humans!" she replied.
"Say what? You mean like in the world Sunset Shimmer is in?" AJ asked.
"Yes, but they're not the same," replied Twi. They listened to their conversation.
"So do you think the princess will show up at the ball?" one guy asked the other.
"I don't know. With that threat Diabolyn made, they might be worried something big will happen to Dar Shan if she does," the other replied as they continued on.
"Princess? Diabolyn? Dar Shan?" Fluttershy said nervously.
"Ah' don't think we're in Equestria anymore Twilight", commented Applejack.
"So what will we do? How will you get us back home?" asked Fluttershy.
"Well it shouldn't be any trouble to teleport us back, but we need to see if the others are here too, because if they are and I leave, they won't be able to get back," she replied.
"Then we better start looking," replied Applejack. With no idea where they were, they followed the road opposite of the way the cart had just went.
At the same time Twilight and the others arrived in Dar Shan, Pinkie, Rarity, and Dash had arrived at their destination.
"Well are we here?" asked Pinkie.
Dash flew up a short distance and looked around.
Iiii don't think we are. This doesn't look like Rainbow Falls," replied Dash. she then flew back down.
"This doesn't even look like Equestria. I don't recognize these flowers," replied Rarity, looking at a nearby cluster of them.
"So what happened?" Asked Pinkie.
"I'm pretty sure when Derpy startled Twilight, it messed up her spell," replied Dash.
"Terrific. So now what?" snapped Rarity.
"We need to figure out where we are, and find Twilight and the others so we can get back," replied the pegasus.
"Let's see if there's anything over those hills," Pinkie said. And they headed off.
"This place is a lot more colorful than Equestria. The leaves and flowers are so vivid in color," commented Rarity.
"And I'm surprised at the lack of clouds here," added Dash.
As they got close to the ridge, they heard a commotion in the trees off to their left.
"What's that?" Pinkie said.
"It sounds like a struggle. Come on!" replied Dash, and the three went towards the sounds.
Peaking over some bushes, they found the source.
"What in the world are those?" whispered Rarity.
"That gray one with black outfit appears to be one of those humans Twilight talked about, and then a... brown talking parasprite carrying a white one?" commented Dash.
"Those are too big for parasprites silly," replied Pinkie.
"Let me go! Wait until Rainbow mmmmuph...." the gray one gagged the white furball.
"HAHAHA! How is she going to know? No one knows you're missing yet!" cracked the gray human.
"Yeah, and by the time she does, we'll have all of you! Huh huh!" added the brown furball.
"Oh no! They're taking it somewhere!" Pinke said.
"Not if we can help it!" yelled Dash.
The two goons were getting ready to put the furball into a wheeled contraption.
"Pick on someone your own size!"
The two looked to their left and saw Dash flying towards them.
"AAAAAAH!" The two yelled. They then dived out of the way, throwing the white furball, whom Pinkie caught.
"Who is that Murky?"
"I don't know but it isn't Rainbow's horse!"
Suddenly they were unable to move. Rarity was holding them in place with her magic, then Pinkie started throwing fruit, rocks, and anything else she could find at them.
"Take that you ruffians!" yelled Rarity. She then picked them up and dropped them.
"Let's get out of here Lurky!" And the two quickly jumped into their contraption and drove off.
Rainbow flew back down to them as Rarity removed the gag and rope from the furball.
"Thanks for saving me!" he said.
"No problem. We weren't going to let them pick on you," replied Dash.
"Who are you three anyway? I've never seen horses like you here before."
"We're ponies. I'm Rainbow Dash, and this is Rarity and Pinkie Pie," she replied.
"Now tell us your name!" Pinkie said, jumping up and down.
"I'm Twink. One of the sprites."
"You are a parasprite?" Rarity asked.
"No just a sprite. We work in the color mines," he replied.
"Color mines? You mine colors? How?" Pinkie said, scratching her head.
"Where are we anyway?" added Rarity.
"why you're in Rainbow Land of course!" replied Twink.
"I knew it! That bird brained pegasus made Twilight teleport us to here instead of Rainbow Falls!" snapped Dash.
"You're not from around here?" Twink asked.
"No. We're from a land called Equestria," replied Rarity.
"And what is teleporting?"
"It's a long story," replied Dash. "We need to see if our three friends are here so we can go with them back to Equestria."
"What if they're not here?" the sprite asked.
"Then... We may be stuck here," replied Rarity, which suddenly downed everyone's moods.
"Well I need to get back to the castle to tell Rainbow what happened to me, and tell her what Murky and Lurky said," he replied.
"But Dashie is right here," commented Pinkie.
"No Rainbow Brite, my friend and the ruler of Rainbow Land," replied Twink. "I'm sure she can help you find your friends.
"Well let's go then! " replied Pinkie. And they follower Twink to the castle.
Twilight and the others had been walking for three miles when they heard a commotion to their right.
"What's that?" Fluttershy said.
"Sounds like someone is in trouble!" replied Applejack, and they ran towards the sounds.
They got through some bushes and saw five small flying monsters trying to abduct a small light blue horse, with a white haired human boy trying to stop them, only to get a rope tied around him.
"Oh my! It looks like they're trying to take that... Pony?" Fluttershy said.
"We've gotta' stop them!" replied Twilight.
"Forget it brat! He's coming with us, along with you now!" exclaimed the leader of the monsters said.
"Over my dead body Dweedle!" replied the boy.
"Five on two isn't a fair fight ya' monsters!"
"Huh?" was all the group could say before Applejack charged into the middle of them with a flying buck, sending the fat one flying and making them drop the colt and human. Twilight grabbed the small one with her magic and threw him into a nearby stream.
"Get them!" yelled Dweedle. They were no match for the pony tag team though. Soon Applejack bucked the bird faced one into the stream also, hitting the small one who had just got out of it. She then kicked the leader into the stream, and Twilight managed to hit the last two with a freeze ray and threw them in also. Meanwhile Fluttershy had freed the two from the ropes.
"L-Let's get out of here!" the leader yelled, and the group ran away yelling.
"Those two are worse than Wildfire!" the jester looking one said as they ran.
"I know Booper. But wait until Diabolyn hears about that flying unicorn with magic powers. I've never heard of such a thing," replied Dweedle.
"Are you two alright?" Twilight asked.
"We are now thanks to you showing up," replied the boy.
"Who are you? I've never seen horses like you around here before," asked the light blue colt.
"I'm Princess Twilight Sparkle, and this is Applejack and Fluttershy", she replied.
"I'm Dorin, and this is Brutus," replied the boy.
"I can't believe I'm... standing in front of one of those.. humans you described Twilight. I'm.... eep", said Fluttershy.
"So why are you here?" Brutus asked.
"I was trying out a teleportation spell with them and three others when it got messed up and we wound up here. We're not sure where our other three friends wound up. We need to make sure they're not here also before I teleport us back," Twilight said.
"You can teleport with magic? That's awesome!" replied Dorin. "So what's the name of the place you're from?"
"It's called Equestria," replied Applejack.
"You mean it's all horses?" the colt asked.
"Um..Yes. .Actually we're ponies, though there's horses too," replied Fluttershy.
"There's a place like that here called the Sanctuary of the Horses," replied Dorin.
"Fascinating", replied Twilight. "So humans and pon... er, horses co habitat here?"
"Uh Twilight... Our friends..." AJ said.
"Oh, right. Do you know of a way we could find out if our friends are here?" she asked.
"I don't, but I'm sure Wildfire would know," he replied.
"Wild Fire's here? How?" Fluttershy said with a shocked look.
"What do you mean? Wildfire has always been here," Brutus said.
"There's a pony where we're from with the same name," replied Applejack.
"Oh ok," replied the colt.
"We're going to Wildfire right now to tell them about what happened. Follow us," Dorin said. And they began walking.
"So who were those creatures that were trying to take you?" Fluttershy asked.
"That's Diabolyn's goons. They're always trying something, but recently there's been horses disappearing, and it looks like it's them that are behind it. Again," replied the boy.
"Who is Diabolyn?" Asked AJ.
"She's a sorceress who wants to be the ruler of Dar Shan. She's the step sister of princess Sarah's mom, Serana," replied Dorin.
"Oh there's a princess here?" Twilight asked.
"Yes. And if we ever defeat Diabolyn, she will become the queen of Dar Shan," replied Brutus.
"Where's Serana?"
"she's dead. When she married prince Cavan many years ago, Diabolyn tried to disrupt it and take over. Serana banished her, but not before Diabolyn put a curse on her and the prince where a year after they were married, them and their first born child would die," replied Dorin.
"That's horrible!" exclaimed Fluttershy.
"So where's the prince?" Twilight asked.
"Wildfire took both him to the mortal world to escape the curse. And after Sarah was born took her there also just after Serana died. Now whenever Di tries to start trouble, Wildfire goes to the human world to bring Sarah back long enough to foil her plans, The prince briefly returned once also when the Spectres went there to abduct Sarah and bring her back themselves," replied Dorin.
"Mortal world? Specters? What are those?" asked Twi.
"The mortal world is where all humans live. The Specters are the demons that gave Diabolyn her power after she freed them."
"And turned her servants from humans into goons," added Brutus.
"Wow ain't this one big mess," commented Applejack. "So will you ever be able to defeat them"
"Hopefully one day. It will take a large amount of magic and Sarah's amulet to do it," Dorin said.
"Could you help Twilight? You seem to have a lot of magic," asked Brutus.
"I don't know. I'm not sure if my magic would fully work here, and there could be ramifications," she replied.
"Aw' phooey," he replied.
"So is Sarah here now?" asked Fluttershy.
"Yeah. Her and Wildfire are trying to get to the bottom of the horsenapping, but we know the answer now. Hopefully they're back at Alvinar's place by now," Dorin said.
"I can't wait to get there," replied Twilight. "I need to write all of this down. Will this alvinar have some paper and a quill?..." and they continued on.
While all of this was going on, Sarah and Wildfire were returning to Alvinar's house from the other side of Thorinia when one of the Sinti people appeared in front of them.
"Jovar. What's up?" Wildfire asked.
"Something puzzling", he replied. The Sinti were the center of all magic in Dar Shan, and could feel disturbances in the magic force.
"We have detected a brief but high magic force crossing the void to here."
"From the mortal world?" asked Sarah.
"No. It seemed to come from somewhere else. We could also sense another use of magic not long afterwards from the western side of Thorinia."
"We better get back to Alvinar. Something may be happening," the purple horse said. and the two rode off as Jovar disappeared into thin air.
Back in Rainbow Land, Dash and the others had reached the hill overlooking the castle.
"There it is. Rainbow Castle!" exclaimed Twink. The group stared at it for a minute.
"Oooooh colorful!" commented Pinkie.
"I've never seen a building with so many colors before," added Rarity.
"It looks like something you'd make Pinkie," cracked Dash.
"Let's go!" Twink said. and they headed down the path to the castle.
A few kids in brightly colored outfits were milling around outside when they saw the group approaching.
"Who's that with Twink?" A boy in red said.
"They look like ponies. Look at the one with rainbow mane!" replied a girl in orange.
A girl in a green dress ran into the castle.
"Rainbow!"
"What is it Patty?"
"Twink is coming back to the castle with three brightly colored ponies," she said.
"Really? I didn't think there were any other ponies or horses here," she replied. And she followed Patty out.
Rainbow and the other kids were waiting when the group got there.
"Rainbow!" Twink yelled.
"Where were you Twink?" she asked.
"Murky and Lurky tried to spritenap me. They would've gotten away with it if it hadn't been for these ponies," replied Twink, pointing to them. The kids were amazed.
"So these are humans?" whispered Rarity to Dash.
"Yep, not exactly as Twilight described, but still the same", she replied.
"Who are you theree ponies?" Rainbow asked. Dash started to say, but Pinkie cut her off.
"I'm Pinkie Pie. And this is Rainbow Dash and Rarity".
"You have the same name as me?"
"Yep. Funny isn't it? replied Dash.
"Are you from around here?" asked Patty.
"No. We're from a land called Equestria. Our friend teleported us here by accident, and we're looking to see if she's here also along with a couple others," explained Dash.
Rainbow introduced the others, who were known as the Color Kids.
"So how long are you going to be here?" asked Red Butler.
"Thats... the reason we have to find our friend. Without her we're stuck here," replied Rarity. The kids gasped.
"We'll help you find them if they're here," she replied. The others agreed.
"This is great! so what do you do here for fun? We can throw a party for our search party before..." Pinkie said while jumping up and down. Dash interrupted her.
"Pinkie we really don't have time..."
"What's going on Rainbow?"
"Huh?" Dash turned around and came face to face with a white horse with rainbow mane.
"Oh. Starlight this is Rainbow Dash and her friends Pinkie Pie and Rarity. They were teleported to our world by accident and are looking to see if their friends are here too, and they rescued Twink from Murky and Lurky, " Rainbow said.
"Twink was in trouble?" Starlight replied surprised. "What happened?"
"Murky and Lurky tried to spritenap me", replied Twink.
"Now what are they up to?" he asked.
"I don't know but they said they'd get the rest of us too."
"Oh no! why didn't you say that before?" Rainbow Brite said.
"We were so caught up in the introductions I forgot," replied Twink.
"I wouldn't worry about them too much. we roughed them up and sent them running off in some contraption," replied Dash.
"That's their grunge buggy," replied Patty.
"We need to go to the color mine and check on the other sprites," Rainbow said. "And we can look for your friends along the way".
"Let's go then!" replied Dash. Rainbow and Twink got on Starlite and the group headed off.
After a few more miles of walking, Twilight and the others reached their destination.
"We're back Alvinar!" yelled Dorin. A very old man in a robe came out of a cottage.
"Ah you're back. Who did you bring with you?" asked Alvinar.
"This is Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, and Applejack", replied Dorin.
"They saved us from the goons," added Brutus.
"Oh my. I've never seen horses like you before," he said, looking closer at them.
"We're ponies, and we're from a land called Equestria. I teleported us here by accident," replied Twilight.
A short distance away Wildfire and Sarah were speeding towards the cottage. As they got closer, the horse's ears perked up.
"What is it Wildfire?"
"I can sense magic ahead. It doesn't feel evil though," he replied.
"Let's hurry!" replied Sarah.
Meanwhile Twilight was going over what happened with Alvinar.
"So your friends are here also?" he asked.
"We don't know," replied Twilight. "That's why we're look..."
"Dorin! Brutus!"
The group turned to see Wildfire and Sarah running up to them. Fluttershy hid behind Twilight.
"Ah you're back," Dorin said.
"So you're... Wildfire and, Sarah?" Fluttershy asked, looking a bit intimidated by Wildfire's size.
"That's right. Who are you?" asked Wildfire.
"How many times are we gon' have to introduce ourselves?" cracked Applejack. And Twilight introduced themselves again and why they were there.
"So how did you wind up here?" he asked.
"They followed us. They saved us from Diabolyn's goons," replied Brutus.
"Oh no! What did they try to do?" asked Sarah.
"They tried to horsenap Brutus, and me," replied Dorin.
"So Diabolyn is behind the disappearances?" Alvinar said.
"Didn't she learn anything from the last time?" commented Sarah.
"Apparently not," replied Wildfire.
"So what do we do now?" Sarah asked Wildfire.
"We need to track Diabolyn down and find out what she's trying to pull. It doesn't make sense why she would try a stunt that failed again," he replied.
"So what was her plan before?" asked Applejack.
"She came up with a magic whip that could control horse's minds, and had a Centaur name Rocklodoad and her goons start rounding up horses, with the goal of using them to destroy the Sanctuary of the Horses. It turned out water could counter the effects, and during the battle we cut the ropes to a bridge which dumped them into the water, and destroyed the whip," replied Sarah.
"Maybe she came up with one that's immune to the effects of water?" commented Twilight.
"That could be. But we still know what her game plan would be and I'm sure she realizes that," replied Wildfire.
"So... Can you help us find our friends too?" Fluttershy asked.
"Yes. We can search for them along with Diabolyn," replied Sarah.
"And your magic might come in handy Twilight," added Dorin.
"Ok. If we need to cover more ground I can teleport us also," replied Twilight.
"Woah now. What if you send us to the wrong place?" asked Brutus.
"Simple teleporting is easy compared to the split one I was trying," replied Twilight, and she teleported all of them a few feet away.
"Well let's go then!" replied Sarah. and the group headed off.
Meanwhile the goons had returned to Diabolyn's castle.
"Do I dare ask what happened to you guys?" Diabolyn said in a slightly angry voice, noticing they were still soaked.
"Uh.. w-we tried to steal that brat's colt," Dweedle replied.
"And let me guess: Wildfire stopped you?"
"No! It was three small horses that roughed us up!" replied Nertz.
"YOU FOOLS! You've been rounding up full size horses! How could three foals defeat you?" raged Diabolyn.
"T-t-they weren't regular foals! One had a super powerful kick. Knocked me for a loop!" replied Mudlusk, the fat goon.
"And the second had wings and could fly!" added Thimble, the bird faced one.
"But more importantly was the third one. It was a unicorn with wings. She used her magic to pick us up and throw us into a stream," Dweedle said. Diabolyn's mood changed.
"A pegasus, and a winged unicorn?" Di asked.
"Is that what they're called?" Thimble said.
"Yes. pegasus horses are a myth, and I only know of a few unicorns in Dar Shan. and none have wings or magic powers," replied Diabolyn. "Do you know where they are?"
"They're probably still with that boy and the colt," replied Booper.
"They've probably found Wildfire by now," added Dweedle.
"Hmmm. that unicorn could be useful. I'm going to talk to the Specters about it. Go back out and see if you can find them. I'll let Rocklodoad know too," she said.
"Don't make us face them again," whined Dweedle.
"Now Dweedle...You know what happens when you disobey me right?" Di replied in a stern voice.
"y-y-y-y-yes your highness!" replied Dweedle. And the goons ran off.
Dash and the others were getting closer to the color mines, talking about each others worlds.
"So you have a princess that controls the night?" Rainbow asked.
"Yes, Princess Luna. She can also go into pony's dreams to watch over them. And Princess Celestia controls the day," replied Rarity. "
"We have one too. Moonglow controls the nights here, though she can't see into dreams," she replied. "We also have Stormy who lives in the clouds and makes rainstorms."
"You have a weather pega... I mean someone who controls the weather too? Awesome. That's what us pegasi do in Equestria, along with making rainbows," replied Dash.
"Wow. It sounds like our worlds have a lot in common," Twink said.
"How do you make rainbows?" asked Starlite.
"We grind up gemstones into pigment and mix them with water to make what we call spectra. Then with a little pegasi magic can make rainbows with it. The place we were supposed to be teleported to is called Rainbow Falls, which as it's name suggests has rainbows falling from clouds like a waterfall. That's where most of the spectra winds up as kind of a holding pond. They make a great attraction too," replied Dash.
"That's like what we do in the color mines. We mine then grind up the color crystals to make star sprinkles," Twink said.
"Those star sprinkles sound like a wonderful thing to use in designing multi colored clothes," commented Rarity.
"I don't think thy can work that way. When they're sprinkled on an object it changes it to that color," replied Rainbow.
"So you can change the color of something by just sprinkling those on it?" Rarity said with a gleam in her eye.
"Yes. I use them and my color belt to keep Rainbow Land and sometimes Earth colorful," she replied.
"So you go around and just sprinkle those to keep the trees green and so forth? Doesn't that take awhile to do?" Pinkie asked.
"Not with me carrying Rainbow. We can be done in a day," replied Starlite.
"A day? I could get it done in half a day," Dash said.
"I doubt it. I'm the most magnificent horse in Rainbow Land," replied Starlite. The group stopped walking. Rainbow and Twink got down from Starlite.
"Well I'm the fastest pegasus in Equestria," she replied.
"As small as you are?"
Needless to say Starlite had said the wrong thing.
Dash reared back with a slightly angry look, then turned around and took off at full speed, leaving a long rainbow trail behind her. She flew up and did a series of maneuvers before flying back down.
"How's that for fast?" Dash said.
"That's amazing!" replied Rainbow.
"and that's how she helped save me," added Twink.
"I know where this is going," Pinkie whispered to Rarity.
"I know. Starlite definitely has an ego like Dash's," she replied.
"Can you make that rainbow trail again?" asked Starlite.
"Sure!" replied Dash. At which point she sped off then back again, leaving another rainbow trail. As soon as she passed them, Starlite jumped on it and started running on it before it faded, taking Dash by surprise.
"What do you think of that?" Starlite said with a bit of arrogance. Rainbow just shook her head, having seen Starlite act like this before.
"Let's see you try walking on this!" snapped Dash. And she flew straight up until they almost couldn't see her.
"Oh here we go," Rarity said.
"What is she going to do?" Asked Twink.
"You...might want to cover your ears," replied Pinkie. And everyone did.
Dash had reached the right altitude, and began her high speed dash towards the ground. At just 300 feet above the ground she did a sonic rainboom and sped off at a 90 degree angle. The shock wave almost knocked a couple trees over, sent birds flying, and blew everyone backwards a bit, leaving Twink and Starlite with their mouths open. Dash came back and landed in front of them.
"I give you, the sonic rainboom! And I'm the only pegasus in Equestria that can do it," Dash said proudly.
"Th- that was incredible," Starlite said.
"I've never seen anything so beautiful!" replied Rainbow.
"You need to do that in the middle of The Pits," added Twink.
"Speaking of that we need to get going," Rainbow said. And her and Twink got back on Starlite and the group continued to the color mines.
Author's Note
And we finally see Dash and Starlite's egos face off.
