A Pony of Many Colors

Twilight: "Hello, welcome to Equestria. A lot has happened in the past year that you haven't been able to see. The hidden cameras we didn't know were recording our lives were shut off, but the ghost of Snowdrop was able to record the funniest moments. For example; everycreature in Equestria are in a lot of different colors. Of course I have my Lavender coat, but Rainbow Dash thinks her Blue coat is the 'awesomest' of all. So imagine how she'd feel if she was a different color"

A Pony of Many Colors

(Twilight Narrating) "One day, Rainbow Dash had been showing off, bragging about how she was the fastest thing in Equestria."

Rainbow Dash soared through the skies cheering and busting through clouds, but suddenly her wing got a huge cramp and she began to fall.

(Twilight Narrating) "But when her wing cramped, she couldn't control herself and she crashed right into Sweet Apple Acres."

Rainbow screams as she plummets into the roof of a barn. She was in total agony, luckily, Applejack found her and brought her straight to hospital.

(Twilight Narrating) "So, Rainbow had to be sent to the hospital to be treated."

In the hospital, Rainbow Dash laid in bed covered in bandages and missing some fur. Rainbow whimpered from the horrible pain. "Look at my wings!"

"Don't worry Rainbow, everything will be okay." Nurse Redheart promised. "You'll be able to fly again by the time you're out of here."

"I'm glad about that, but there's something else I'm worried about." Rainbow said.

"What's that dear?"

"A long time ago, Tidalwave said if I did this again he would permanently dye my fur green!" Rainbow answered.

"Now why would he do that?" Redheart asked in confusion.

"I don't know, I just know that I won't be the same at all if I'm dyed green." Rainbow hung her head low in shame as the clock above said 10:35 PM.

"Okay everypony, lights out." After Redheart turned out the lights, Rainbow Dash fell asleep and began to dream.

Rainbow Dash's Dream

Sandbar and Yona were standing outside of the School of Friendship near a school carriage. They couldn't figure out who will take the other students home. Just then, Rainbow Dash flew in and landed 9 feet away.

"Here's Rainbow!" She said. Sandbar and Yona were shocked at what they saw.

"Rainbow? What happened to your Cyan coat!?"

"Rainbow look like Sandbar." Yona said.

"Huh?" Rainbow Dash turned to look and gasped. Where she used to be Blue, she was now Lake-Foam Green. "I'm Green!? Oh no! Nobody thinks Green ponies are awesome!" Sandbar groans and rolls his eyes at Dash's comment.

"Caramel is currently sick. Can you take the school carriage for him Rainbow?" Starlight asked.

"Not in this color! What will everyone say?"

"It doesn't matter what color you are Dash. It's what you do that matters." Sandbar pointed out.

"Look Gallus!" A 5-year old hippogriff said. "One of Sandbar's relatives is gonna be taking our carriage!" Rainbow sighs at the hippogriffs mistake. Later, Rainbow is pulling the carriage through Ponyville, but notices something odd.

"Hey, pulling this carriage was never this easy before!" Rainbow exclaimed. "It's so light, I can go as fast as I want! Whoo-hoo!" She began to speed up and passed Big Mac pulling his wagon. "Make way for an important pony! School carriage coming through!"

"Rainbow! Stop showing off before ya have another crash!" Big Mac warned.

"Yeah yeah yeah." Rainbow said ignoring Big Mac, but gasped when she saw that she was heading straight for a broken bridge. She tried skidding to a halt, but she was going too fast. "Oh no-"

Reality

Rainbow woke up panting heavily, and looked around the room and saw it was 2 AM. "Phew. It was all just a dream." Rainbow turned her head and saw Applejack walking through the town. She yawned and fell back asleep.

Rainbow Dash's Dream

At Sugarcube Corner, Smolder was talking to Cuphead while they ate fudge-filled cookies. Then, Rainbow Dash arrived.

"Here's Rainbow!" She said.

"Rainbow?" Cuphead asked. "Is that you?"

"You look like me!" Smolder said. Rainbow Dash looked at herself and gasped.

"I'm Orange? Oh this is terrible!" Cuphead and Smolder look oddly at that comment.

"A-At least your back on your hooves again," Cuphead pointed out. "and just in time too. Pinkie wants you to take her heavy treats wagon." Later Rainbow was pulling the wagon through Ponyville. Though something was strange about the wagon, it was a few inches off the ground.

"Hmm, for a heavy treats wagon, this feels very light," Rainbow then thought of something, "Maybe Orange makes you stronger. Ha! Strong and Orange like Applejack! That's me!" Rainbow began to trot up a hill, and along the way she saw Cozy Glow who was struggling to carry a heavy saddlebag. "Maybe you should be dyed Orange Cozy, then you'd be strong like me and Applejack."

"Well maybe you should quit showing off before you have another crash." Rainbow ignored Cozy's statement and started going down the hill. However she gasped at what she saw ahead; Pipsqueak was stuck in a mud puddle.

"Look out Pipsqueak!" Rainbow screamed. Pipsqueak gasped and tried to get free as Rainbow tried to stop, but the wagon pushed her forward. "Oh no! No! AAAHHHH-"

Reality

Rainbow woke up with a gasp, and looked around the room and saw it was 4 AM. "This is too much. Not another nightmare!" Rainbow took one more glance out the window and saw the moon. Rainbow quickly went back to sleep.

Rainbow Dash's Dream

Fancy Pants and Fleur De Lis waited near a carriage station for transportation, and they turned to the sound of clopping hooves.

"Here's Rainbow!"

"Ah, Rainbow Dash." Fancy Pants said as he climbed into the carriage. "I'm so glad Princess Twilight let you help while Spencer is away."

"Oooh," Fleur said with admiration. "I see you've gotten your silver coat polished. Very nice."

"Silver?" Rainbow asked with a smile as she looked at herself. "Oh yeah! This is what I call looking awesome!" Rainbow began to pull the carriage, running at high speed. "Ha Ha! Don't I look hardcore?" She said as she sped past Spike.

"Stop showing off!" Spike said. Rainbow ran a hill and launched off the top doing 7 barrel rolls while whooping.

"Rainbow, it's getting quite jumpy back here." Fancy Pants said as he and Fleur were having tea and cookies. Rainbow landed perfectly and continued running and smiling.

"Sorry about that."

"If you keep showing off Rainbow, you'll have another crash." Fleur's voice saying 'another crash' echoed in Rainbow's head, her face turning into a look of confusion.

"Another crash." Rainbow looked ahead to see 3 ponies passing by, the first 2 being Cozy Glow and Sandbar. "Another crash." Cozy said as she passed Rainbow.

"Another crash!" Sandbar passed saying. Fleur, Cozy and Sandbars voices saying those same two words echoed in Rainbow's head. She looked ahead to see that the 3rd pony was Lightning Dust who started backing up so Rainbow could see her.

"Go on!" Lightning said. "Crash! Ha ha ha!" Rainbow looked ahead to see Gallus with a wagon of fruits.

"Gaaaaalluuuuuuuss!" Rainbow shouted. Gallus turned and began to push the wagon. "Oh no! Oh no! I really don't want to crash again!" Rainbow closed her eyes and when she opened them she was back in the hospital on top of a color wheel. She changed color as it spun. "Brown! Purple! Yellow! Orange! Piiiiinnnnnk!!!! AAAAHHHHHH-"

Reality

Rainbow woke up screaming. She saw it was morning time.

"Rainbow." Rainbow turned to see Tidalwave and gasped.

"Please Wave! I'm sorry. I was just having fun. I don't care if you dye me Green or Orange or Silver, as long as I'll still be myself."

"Yes Rainbow, I did tell you long ago that if you misbehaved again I would have you dyed Green." Tidalwave said. "However, I can see that you're sorry and I think it's only right for you to stay in the color that suits you best." Rainbow smiled at this.

A few days later, Rainbow walked up to Sandbar. "Hi Sandbar." she said.

"Oh, hello Rainbow. Glad to see you're out of the hospital. And your fur grew back too."

"I'm not gonna say anything about my coat being awesome today."

"Really?"

"It doesn't matter what color I am." Rainbow said. "It's what I do to be useful for the world that matters."

"Who told you that?"

"You did, in a dream." Rainbow said as she flew away.

Twilight: It's fun to show off, but too much could lead to a lot of trouble. Rainbow wouldn't stop showing off no matter what color she was. Sometimes showing off can make you forget important things, which could lead to lots of problems. See you next time!
