Author's Note

Just a small note: This is my first story so I'm sorry if it's bad. I will accept any advice you have for me. Also I'm Dutch so I'm sorry if the grammer is bad. Anyways enjoy reading!

The invitation!

It was time for another meeting and Rainbow Dash happly hopped in with a big smile and a paper in her wing. She sat on her seat and Apple Jack noticed how happy she was.

"What are you so happy for? Did something great happen? And what's that paper you got there?" She asked pointing at the paper in her wing.

"Here! See it for yourself!" Rainbow Dash said with a smile and gave her the paper. It was a letter to her.

-Dear Rainbow Dash.
We would like to invite you to our Rainbow festival to preform your famous rainboom to everypony there. It's tomorrow so you better get
ready. We also got you tickets for the hotel. See you there!
-Mare of Rainbow Town.

Apple Jack read the letter and looked pretty suprised. "Wow! Invited to a whole festival just for a rainboom? You must be pretty popular there."

"Yea. They said there was a whole fan club that couldn't wait to see me! I'm so exited to go there and meet them!!" She said excited.

"I can see that. You're like Pinkie Pie on christmas!" Apple Jack joked but Rainbow Dash didn't say anything against it.

"It's just so awesome! But there's only one ticket for me so you guys can't come to see all this awesome, But don't worry!
Once I get back I'll tell all about it!"

"I don't mind. You're the one they invited. I'll let you have this one." Rainbow Dash got a smile and got the letter back from Apple Jack. "Thx AJ! This is going to be so much fun!"

After everyone was there Rainbow Dash showed everyone the letter and started flying all around the room because she was so exited. Everyone was happy for her and after they had it about some more things the meeting was over.

Next day.

Rainbow Dash got her stuff and went to the station. When she got there her friends were also there.

"Dashie!" Pinkie Pie happly hopped to Rainbow Dash and hugged her.

Rainbow Dash saw the others there too and got a smile. "Oh hi! I should have known you guys would be here."

"We just wanted to say good bye before you left. It's going to atleast be a few days out there." Twilight said while walking to her. The others followed.

"It's going to be great! I wish you all could come too.." Rainbow Dash said with a disapointed tone.

"Nah. We're fine here. This is your trip." Apple Jack reassured her.

"But you're going to tell us all about it when you come back right!!" Pinkie Pie asked while hopping up and down.

"Of course!" Rainbow Dash responded smiling again.

"I can already imagine how beautifull that place is. It's called rainbow town so it has to look great." Rarity said already daydreaming about it.

Fluttershy followed with her own daydream. "And maybe there are even rainbow animals! Just imagine how cute they would be!"

Rainbow Dash just rolled her eyes and smiled. "I'll tell you guys all about it when I return."

They heard a loud ring and a train to Rainbow Town appeared. It was very colourfull and the smoke were as white as clouds. Everyone looked amazed at it. A pony came out and looked at Rainbow Dash.

"Oh hello there. You must be Rainbow Dash. I'm jasper." He introduced himself and did a little bow. "I was asked to help you get to Rainbow Town savely. Need any help with your bags? I can carry them in if you want." He offered while pointing at her bags.

"Thx but I can handle that myself. Thx for asking tho." Rainbow Dash replied.

Apple Jack just looked amazed seeing all that. "Wow. A pony just for helping you. They must really like you there to have done this."

Rainbow Dash just shrugged it off "I guess so."

"Are you coming? We don't want to be late." Jasper said already standing next to the train door.

"Oh yea of course! Just a sec!" Rainbow Dash quickly replied. They did a group hug and Rainbow Dash got in. After that the train left and everyone continued their day.

The missing Rainbow..

A week later.

Rainbow Dash said she would be gone for 5 days at most. But it has been a week and she still wasn't back. Her friends got a bit worried.. Twilight called everyone over for a meeting. "Have any of you heard from Rainbow Dash recently?" Twilight asked hiding her worry as best as possible.

Apple Jack shuck her head. "Nope.. Nothing.."

"Same for me.." Fluttershy said disapointed.

"No cards, Letters or anything! ;-;" Pinkie Pie said in a sad tone.

"It's almost like she doesn't exist.. I don't know why.. She said she would send stuff while she was there. Plus the fact that she is away longer than she was supposed to is not giving me a good feeling.." Rarity said looking down.

Twilight started to worry more now. "It is weird.. You think maybe something happened?"

"I hope not.." Fluttershy said scared.

"No! That can't be it! It HAS to be something else!" Pinkie Pie said trying to stay positive.

"Maybe we should go there and check to see if she's ok.." Twilight said still worried. The rest nodded in agreement. "Then that's what we're going to do. I would like to go fast just in case there is something."

"I can get some stuff and meet you guys at the station." Apple Jack said already ready to go get it.

Rarity got up too. "Me too. But I do need to get more stuff than you. I don't know how long we'll stay there you know." The others quietly rolled their eyes at her statement.

"I'll just bring the important stuff. I'll meet you all there." Fluttershy said while leaving her seat.

Pinkie Pie hopped off her chair too with a excited smile. "Ok then! Meet you all there! I need all the time I have to get my all stuff!"

Pinkie Pie hopped away and the others went to get their stuff too. After that they met again at the station. They went on the train and arrived. There were a lot of colours and rainbows everywhere. The ponies there were a bit less but they didn't really care. They just wanted to find Rainbow Dash and see if she's ok. They got to a big house with the name "Jasper" on it. Twilight noticed it was the name of the pony that met Rainbow Dash when she left. "That's the pony that helped Rainbow Dash to get here! Maybe he knows more!"

"Let's hope so.." Apple Jack said trying to stay hopefull.

They got to the house and knocked. It took a bit of time but the door openned and they saw Jasper. "Oh hello there. Do you need anything?" He asked.

"We're looking for Rainbow Dash. We thought you may know where she is." Twilight explained.

"Oh yea Rainbow Dash. She put on a great show at the festival! After a pony came to her and she walked away with them. Didn't see her after that. No one did." He answered.

"Do you know who it was?" Twilight asked.

He simply shrugged. "I don't know everyone here. I barely know what they look like anymore. But it's a pretty small town. I'm sure you'll find her somewhere."

Twilight sighed but kept a smile. "Well thx for the help. We'll look for her.."

"No problem. Good luck finding your friend."

"Yea. Bye Jasper." After Twilight finished her sentence he closed the door. Twilight turned around to the others. "So our best guess now is to ask every house here.." Twilight said looking at the town.

"Those are a lot.. But if we can find out where Dash is-" Apple Jack got interupted by Pinkie Pie. "This will all be worth it!! Let's go now! I want to find Dashie!!" Pinkie Pie was hopping in place ready to go.

"We can find her faster if we split up." Fluttershy quietly said as a small tip.

"Good plan Flutters. Pinkie Pie, Apple Jack, You go right. Rarity, Fluttershy, You go left. I'll take a look in that fanclub." After Twilight made the groups they all went their own way to find Rainbow Dash.

The search.

Pinkie Pie was hopping fast. Apple Jack noticed it. "Hey Pinkie? You ok?"

Pinkie Pie just kept hopping keeping a smile. "Of course I am! Why wont I be?"

Apple Jack wasn't very convinced tho. "You haven't been yourself ever since all of this started.. I know you're worried, I'm too, Everyone is, But you shouldn't worry so much. I'm sure she's ok.. Hopefully.." She was saying this more to herself than to Pinkie Pie.

Pinkie Pie stopped hopping now and just sighed. "I know.. And I keep telling myself everything will be ok.. I'm just.. What if something did happen.. What if it's bad.. What if-" Pinkie Pie got stopped by Apple Jack.

"Pinkie! What did I tell ya?" Apple Jack said waiting for a response.

"Stop worrying…"

"Yea. It will be alright. We just need to stay positive. You can do that right?"

Pinkie Pie got a small smile. "Yea.. I'll be positive! Now let's go to the houses! I want Dashie back!" Pinkie Pie started hopping to the next house. Apple Jack followed.

They were halfway trough the houses and Fluttershy started to look a bit worried now. More than earlier. Rarity noticed. "Are ok Fluttershy? You look worried.. More than before.."

Fluttershy looked down. "It's just that.. We've been trough half of the houses already.. And still nothing.."

Rarity tried her best to cheer her up. "You just have to be patient. I'm sure it will get better later."

"But what if it doesn't?" Fluttershy asked in response.

"The others can have better luck. You don't need to worry. We'll find her." She said trying to keep them both positive.

"I'm just scared maybe something happened.. What if she's hurt? Or even worse.." Fluttershy didn't continue and just looked scared at Rarity.

"Stop saying those things! Just stay positive. It will be ok." Rarity reassurred her.

"If you say so.. I just can't help but worry.." Fluttershy replied. Rarity just smiled at her.

"I know. But it will work out. You'll see. I'm worried too. Everyone is. We just need to keep looking." Fluttershy just nodded and they walked to the next house.

Twilight went to a club. It was on top of a hill. When you were up there you could see the whole town. The colours looked a bit more grew than when they arrived but she didn't notice and walked into the small house with the club name on it. When she got in it was pretty empty with posters and merch from Rainbow Dash in trashcans. There was one pony getting it in the trashcans.

"Uhm hello.. I'm Twilight and I'm looking for my friend Rainbow Dash." He noticed her and responded. "I'm Lance. She's not here. She did put on a amazing show at the festival! But now I'm just trying to get this out so we can move on to something else."

"Do you know where she is?" She asked trying to keep a smile.

He shuck his head. "Nope. The mare just told us to get her here for the festival. No one heard from her when it was over. But I think it was a great idea to bring her here! The town has been more colourfull than ever!" He had a smile and looked at the town from the hill.

Twilight was a bit confussed now. "Uhm ok.. Why are you trowing away all this stuff?"

"Well since she came already we need to make the club for something else. It's what we do." He explained like it was something easy to understand.

"Alright then.." Twilight didn't feel like asking anymore questions and was planning to check up on the others instead.

"Sorry I couldn't help you more with this but I'm sure you'll find her." He said with a smile.

"It's ok. I'm going now. Bye Lance." Twilight said goodbye and left the club. She looked at the town from the hill. She now noticed the lack of colour and it getting less every minute. She remembered it and went into the middle of the town again to wait for the others.

Try again tomorrow.

Twilight saw Pinkie Pie and Apple Jack got back first. "Pinkie, Apple Jack! How did it go? Anything?"

They shuck their head "Nope.. No one heard from her or seen her after the festival.." Apple Jack said disapointed.

"...And you...?" Pinkie Pie quietly asked.

Twilight had a disapointed look and shuck her head. "Also nothing.. There was one pony there and he was getting rid of all the Rainbow Dash stuff there. He said they were moving on to something else. They also haven't seen her after the festival."

Pinkie Pie was starting to panic a little but tried to keep it cool. "W-Well maybe Fluttershy and Rarity found something…"

Apple Jack got worried now too but stayed positive. "Let's just hope so.."

Twilight remembered the colour change of the town. "Also did you notice the colours of the town? It's all kinda grey.."

They looked around and noticed it "Oh.. I didn't notice.. That is weird.."

"Will it stay that way? It's pretty depressing to look at." Pinkie Pie said while looking at the former colourfull flowers.

"Maybe it's normal here.." Twilight said already thinking of posible explanations. Fluttershy and Rarity came now too. "Fluttershy, Rarity! How did it go?" Twilight asked hoping for a positive answer.

"Not so good.." Fluttershy said disapointed with her head down.

Rarity continued. "Yea.. No one saw or heard from her after the festival.. And no one knows where she is now.."

Fluttershy also got her attention to the colours of the town. "Also the colours disapeared.. Is that normal..?"

Twilight shrugged. "I noticed that too and I don't know if it is."

"But if she's not here where do we look now?" Apple Jack said starting to lose hope.

"We can ask Jasper if there are other towns or places that she could be. But it's getting late.. It's better if we stay here and continue tomorrow.." Twilight explained.

"Is there a hotel here or something?" Rarity asked hoping there was one and hopefully high quality.

"We saw a huge building. When we went in a worker pony said it was a hotel." Apple Jack said and pointed at a huge building with multiple floors.

Twilight saw it and smiled. "Good. Let's stay there and continue tomorrow. I'm sure we'll have better luck then. There are not a lot of places she could be."

"Y-Yea.. Let's do that.." Pinkie Pie said trying her best to keep a smile.

They walked to the hotel and got a room. It was pretty dusty and it looked like it hasn't been used in a long time.

"We need to stay here?" Rarity said looking around the dusty room.

Apple Jack just rolled her eyes and answered her question. "It's this or the streets. Just be happy we actually got something."

Rarity just sighed and walked furter into the room. "Alright.. As long as there aren't bugs or something.."

"Hey! Those are pretty nice you know?" Fluttershy said offended.

Rarity realized what she said and apologized. "Sorry.."

Fluttershy quietly laughed a little "Rarity I was just joking. If you don't want them you wont get them."

Rarity sighed in relief and smiled "Thx."

Pinkie Pie hopped on the bed and some dust flew out. "It's not the worst in the world. We could have gotten worse."

"That's true. Now let's see the beds so we can go sleep." Twilight walked to a bed too and quickly got rid of the dust before getting in. The others also got one and got comfy. It wasn't the best but most of them were able to fall asleep. But Pinkie Pie couldn't sleep thinking about where Rainbow Dash could be and what happened to her. She was looking out the window when she saw a rainbow coming from Jasper's house. It came from a pipe and was shot into the sky. Pinkie Pie quickly woke everyone up and they all looked and saw the rainbow turn the whole town in colour again. It looked just like when they arrived.

"It came from Jasper's house! Out of some weird pipe!" Pinkie Pie said pointing at the pipe by Jasper's house.

Twilight thought about it and spoke. "Maybe we can ask him about it in the morning."

"I don't know if you noticed but it looked a bit like a rainboom." Apple Jack said remembering the shape of it.

"Or it's just a rainbow with the same shape." Rarity said with a bit of sarcasm. Apple Jack just ignored her comment.

Fluttershy yawned and walked back to her bed. "I'm going back to bed. See you guys in the morning."

The others went back in their beds too and they were all able to get some more sleep.

Truthfull lies..

Next day.

Everyone woke up and got out of their beds.

"That wasn't the best night but I've had worse.." Rarity said while brushing her mane in shape.

Fluttershy but the covors of the bed back in place. "It wasn't like I'm used to but it was fine."

Pinkie Pie was hopping by the door waiting for the others to be ready. "It was ok. Now can we go find Dashie??"

Apple Jack nodded to Pinkie Pie. "I'm ready. Twilight?"

"We're going to Jasper again. Ask about the rainbow stuff and anywhere else she could be." Twilight explained the plan and they left the hotel. They got to his house and knocked. Again it took a while but he openned the door. "Oh you all again. Did you find your friend?"

"No.. But we just want to ask you some questions. If that's ok I mean." Twilight said and waited for a response.

After a few seconds he responded. "Uhm sure.. What about?"

"Well we-" Twilight got interupted by Pinkie Pie. "We saw a rainbow laser last night! It was all rainbowy and it made the whole town in colour again!" Twilight continued. "Yea that. We just wanted to ask what that was. Is that normal..?"

"Yea. I use it every night. It's the only way to keep the town in colour." He explained pointing at the colourfull town.

Brfore Twilight could continue Apple Jack asked. "Why does it turn grew?"

"That's because of an accident that happened a long time ago.. But we found a way to deal with it and that's all that matters."He tried to brush it off and waited for them to say something.

"Ok.. But where did the rainbow blast come from?" Twilight asked looking curious at the pipe near his house.

"I can show you if you want." Jasper said stepping next to his door for them to walk in.

Twilight nodded and smiled. "Ok."

He let them into the house and showed them a room with a machine and a pipe going outside. There was also a pipe on the other side going to the basement.

"This is it. It makes colour from magic and it makes the town in colour again for a day. When the colour fades I use it again and it's back in colour." He said as he pointed his hoof at the machine.

"colour from magic?" Rarity asked curiously. Twilight got curious now too. "Where does the magic come from?"

"It's pretty simple. You just use some magic on it." He said making his horn glow.

Twilight did her calculations in her head and spoke again. "But that doesn't make sense.."

Jasper was cut off guard by what Twilight said. "What do you mean..?"

"If a normal unicorn like you would do that your magic would be gone in just a few days." Twilight explained and continued with another question. "How long did you do this?"

After a few seconds he spoke again. "Eversince the accident.."

"You said that was a long time ago.." Apple Jack said knowing what didn't line up with what he said before.

"W-Well it's not only me.. O-Other ponies help too.." He said nervously.

After a few seconds Apple Jack spoke again with a serious look on her face. "... He's lying.. I can feel it. Where does the magic really come from?"

Jasper looked nervous but tried to defend himself. "I don't know what you're saying! I'm not lying!"

"Apple Jack has never been wrong. Just tell us the truth." Fluttershy said looking at him trying her best not to stare him down.

He looked her stare and replied. "... The source is in the basement. But I don't want you going there. It's a private place."

"What is so private there?" Rarity curiously said.

"I said no! You should leave!" He tried his best to make them leave.

"Why?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"Doesn't matter! Just leave!" He tried it again but It wasn't working.

"We're not leaving until you show us what you're hiding in there!" Twilight said showing her wings and glowing her horn looking down on him. When he stayed quiet she got him in a bubble and they made their way to the basement. He tried to get out but it didn't work. "Wait stop!" They ignored him and got in the basement.

The whole story.

3 days later.

Twilight and the others went to the hospital to see Rainbow Dash. They got into her room and saw she still lacked colour but other than that she looked pretty good. Better than before anyway. They got next to her bed and Twilight first spoke with a smile. "hey Rainbow Dash. How are you?"

Rainbow Dash smiled. "I'm feeling pretty good. Better than before anyway. My flank still hurts a bit sometimes but that will get better."

After she was done saying that she got hugged by Pinkie Pie who also had a big smile. "I'm so happy you're ok now! I was so worried when you didn't come back! And when no one in the town knew where you were I was even more worried! I'm just happy we found you and you're ok now!" After a few seconds she let the hug go.

"I'm sorry I worried you guys so much.. I didn't know this would happen.." Rainbow Dash said while looking down.

Apple Jack put her hoof on her shoulder. "Don't be sorry. No one knew this would happen. And it wasn't your fault."

"Jasper is the one who needs to say sorry the most here." Fluttershy said with a hint of anger in her voice.

"Oh yea Jasper. Where is he now?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"I told Celestia all about what you and what we found there. He's in one of the cells now. But seeing by his reaction this wasn't his first time.." Twilight sighed.

"He didn't even say sorry. Not even once. He just kept saying ok and didn't really care about anything we told him." Rarity said frustrated.

Rainbow Dash stayed quiet for a few seconds before speaking again. "Wow.. I mean I'm not really suprised.. He didn't really seem to care when he shocked me like a hundred times. He would do it if I was loud or annoying or just doing anything other than lie on the floor and stay quiet." She said it like it still hurt to talk about it.

Fluttershy got next to her to comfort her. "That sounds awfull.."

"We tried to get him to say things but he stayed quiet. Now that you can talk again you can tell us everything." Twilight looked at Rainbow Dash and got a small scrol out of her bag with a quill ready to write it all down.

Rainbow Dash sighed and begun the story. "Ok.. So when I got there everything was great. Ponies were nice, The club made a little show for me and everyone liked my rainboom at the festival. But after I was done with that Jasper came to me and said he wanted to show me something. Something important. We got into his house and went to the basement. He showed me all the machines and then got some kind of taser and tased me. I passed out and when I woke up I saw a tube in my cutiemark from one of the machines. And he kept shocking me, taking my magic and colour until you all came and got me out of there. He told me all about how the club was just one of the ways to get me there and they did this with a lot of ponies." Rainbow Dash said the smile fading from her face.

Twilight finished writing it down and sighed. "So this really wasn't the first time.. I thought he was lying when he said that but I guess not.."

Apple Jack looked a bit confussed now. "But when we first talked to him I didn't sense him lying to us.."

"He probably tried to hide it while being honest. He's pretty smart when he is trying to do something like this." Rainbow Dash answered.

"But he was just getting your colours and using it for the town. Did he tell you about any of his plans when he was done?" Fluttershy asked quietly.

"... He.." It took a few seconds but Rainbow Dash eventually answered.

"..Would kill me..."

"What!?" They all said in unison not believing what she just told them.

Rainbow Dash just looked down and explained. "He would have no use for me anymore.. He would kill me and make sure someone else gets the blame if someone would come look for me.. He did the same with the other ponies he got before me.."

Pinkie Pie was the first to speak again. "That's horrible!"

"Good thing we got you out of there then. Seeing how weak you were.. It wouldn't have been hard for him to do so.." Apple Jack said with a scared look on her face.

"Also with the fact your colours are mostly gone.. We really shouldn't have come there later.." Rarity followed.

"It was a pretty close call.. But it all worked out." Rainbow Dash said and got a small smile back on her face.

"Yea.. But he's locked away now. He can't hurt you or anypony anymore. The only thing that counts is that you're ok." Twilight said with a smile.
Rainbow Dash remembered the one question she had once she got back into Ponyvile. "Yea.. But Twi..? Did you find any way to get my colours back? Or any of the magic I lost.." She asked quietly and waited patiently for a response.

"We went back there and got the magic he left behind. The nursing ponies already got that back in your body. Some of your colour from that magic is back but we can't get back the magic that was already used. I'm sorry Dash but you'll stay like this forever.." Twilight said hoping not to upset Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash stayed quiet for another few minutes before saying something again. "... T-That's fine.. Atleast I still got something.." She said with a small smile.

Pinkie Pie still had a smile and tried to cheer her up. "Yea! I mean you're alive, not too hurt and you still have some colour and magic!"

Rainbow Dash got a smile again and thanked Pinkie. "Yea.. Thx Pinkie."

Fluttershy still had one question. "But Dash. How's your cutiemark? How does it look I mean.."

"It's not too bad I guess.. Just see it for yourself." Rainbow Dash got the covor from her bed up and showed her cutiemark. It had a small scar from the rube but most of it was still there. "The nurse ponies said it would heal. Everything will." She said with a smile. Everyone got a smile too and stayed there for a few more minutes before they had to leave again. After 2 more days everything was healed and back to normal. Her colour and magic was still less than before but Rainbow Dash was ok with that.

The found Rainbow..

They openned the door and saw a even bigger machine with a pony next to it on the floor. It was Rainbow Dash. But almost all her colours were gone and she looked defeated and in pain. She could barely keep her eyes open. She noticed them and she tried to say something but she was toon weak to.

"Rainbow Dash!!" They all said in unison and they quickly ran to see if she was ok.

"Rainbow Dash are you ok?" Twilight asked with a worried look on her face. Rainbow Dash didn't say anything again but it was obvious she wasn't ok. Twilight let the spell go and Jasper got down too. He didn't say anything and got a remote from a small table. Rainbow Dash looked very scared now.

Apple Jack looked angry at Jasper. "What did you do to her!?"

"I can show you. But I suggest you stay back." He said very calmly and a grin. He held the remote in his hooves and was going to press it.

"..N-No…" Rainbow Dash quietly said before he pressed the button and felt a big shock trough her entire body. some of her colour faded away and a tube being filled with a rainbow liquid. After the shock Rainbow Dash fainted. Jasper just laughed and put the remote down. "You wanted to see right? And I did what you asked."

Twilight noticed a small tube in her cutiemark and it was connected to the machine. She wispered to Apple Jack. "I'm dealing with Jasper. You guys get Rainbow Dash out of here." She pointed at the tube and walked to Jasper.

"Do you know what you're doing here!? You're hurting a element of harmony! Our friend! And you just did this and lied to our face about it! When Celestia hears about this you will be in big trouble!" She said angry at Jasper.

"Does it look like I care? It was all worth it. She was the best pony I ever got! She got us more colour than any pony ever did before! I don't care if you take her away. Or tell Celestia. Don't think this is the first time this happened." He brushed it off not seeming to care at all.

Twilight accepted it but wasn't going to let it go. "Alright then. But you're not getting away with this without consequences."

Meanwhile.

"How do you get this thing out?" Apple Jack asked while trying to get the tube out.

Fluttershy stopped her and pointing at her flank. "You can't just pull it out! That will hurt her even more.. Also her cutiemark.."

"What else can we do? Cut it off?" Rarity asked.

"I got a tool for that!" Pinkie Pie said as she pulled a scissor from her hair and gave it to Apple Jack. "Thx Pinkie. Now let's hope this works.." Apple Jack carefully placed the scissor and cut it off. There was still a small part in her flank but they could get that out later. Apple Jack gave Twilight a sign and got Rainbow Dash out of there. Twilight levitated Rainbow Dash out of the house and got her to a save place.

...

She carefully placed her down and they waited until she woke up. While they were waiting Twilight was checking for any injuries. After a few minutes she spoke again. "Apart from the pain of the shock the flack is the only thing really affected because of the tube. once we get it out and let it heal she should be ok. But I don't know about her colours.. I can try to bring it back later.. But it's mostly because her magic is gone.. I will have to ask Celestia about this.."

Apple Jack looked down and sighed. "I just can't believe all of this happened to her.. I just keep thinking of ways to could have prevented all of this.. But I know that's not a good thing to think about now.."

"It hurts me to see her like this.. All week and colourless.." Pinkie Pie said looking at her fainted friend.

"And when Jasper was about to press that button I saw in her eyes she knew it would hurt a lot.. Like it happened a lot of times before.. That's just.. Wrong.." Fluttershy looked away with small tears in her eyes.

"Let's just hope she'll be ok.." Rarity said trying to comfort Fluttershy and the others.

"Once she wakes up we can ask her about what happened." Twilight said still angry about what happened to her.

Apple Jack looked away. "If she's even able to talk.."

"Or wants to talk about it.." Fluttershy said quietly.

"We'll see those things when they come." Twilight said comforting her friends. They waited for a few minutes when she eventually woke up. Twilight walked to her and quietly spoke. "Hey Rainbow Dash.. How do you feel..?" Rainbow Dash openned her mouth but nothing came out like last time. She looked around and saw they weren't in Jasper's house.

Fluttershy gave her a kind smile. "Don't worry Rainbow.. You're save now.."

"No one can hurt you here." Apple Jack followed also giving her a smile. Rainbow Dash got a small smile too.

"Can you talk? Or walk?" Twilight asked Rainbow Dash. She tried to get up but they could see that it hurt. She laid back on the floor not being able to do much. Twilight sighed and gave her a small smile. "We can get you back to ponyvile first. Then you can rest and after you're better you can tell us about what happened here." Rainbow Dash smiled at them.

"No problem Dash. We're friends. We wouldn't leave you here like this." Apple Jack said with a smile.

"And when you're all better we can trow a big party to celebrate!" Pinkie Pie started hopping excited with a big smile.
