Eight Hours Ago
"R-Rainbow Dash, a-are you h-home." Fluttershy asked timidly, as she approached the home of Rainbow Dash cautiously. Nobody had seen the rainbow-maned pegasus all day, and she didn't show up for her weather duty. As Fluttershy was the only other pegasus in the group, she was volunteered to go up to Rainbow's cloud house and check up on her. Through much coaxing (and practically being pushed of a cliff), she finally took off to Rainbow's home in the sky, expecting the worse possible thing to happen. When she reached the home of her friend, she knocked on the door. There was no answer coming from the cyan colored pegasus, but a low growl was just barely audible to Fluttershy. When the pale mare finally worked upped the courage, she began to open the door.
"R-Rainbow." she said, looking into the dark room when she opened up the door far enough to look inside. Not only was she surprised to what she found, she couldn't believe it. There, lying on the floor of the pegasus's cloud house, was Rainbow Dash. The dead mare was covered in blood, cum, and other other fluids unknown to Fluttershy. Lying next to Rainbow Dash was a stallion that Fluttershy didn't recognize, covered in the same fluids as Rainbow.
After Fluttershy registered what she had seen, she eeped, then she ran over to the edge of the cloud home. Before she was able to take off to go to the police, she was hit in the head from behind, making her fall off the cloud as if she was tied to several weights.
Present Time - Night Time
Twilight Sparkle was walking to Zecora's hut for some herbal tea when she saw many police ponies outside of Rainbow Dash's cloud house and gathered around a spot under the clouds. Twilight approached the crime scene very cautiously. When she spotted Fluttershy's unconscious body, she ran over to her friend's side.
One of the police ponies stopped her in mid-gallop. "Who are you and where do you think your going, miss." he said, in a deep voice that was deeper than Big Mac when he had that horrid cold. "My name is Twilight Sparkle and that pony over there is my friend. She needs help, badly" she replied, trying to get past him. "Sorry miss Sparkle, but your not allowed to go into the crime scene." he replied curtly, keeping her distanced from Fluttershy.
Twilight finally took a look at the police pony blocking her way. He was a strongly built pony, bigger than Big Mac. His muscles ripped through the blue shirt that was standard issue for every police pony. He had dark blue fur, with a mane as black as the night. His cutie mark was an odd one, she thought. It was a star, just like hers. She thought that she'd have to ask about it later.
She took a glimpse at his eyes, noting that they were dark red. The eyes, she noticed, was focused on her to the point that she thought he was looking right through her. His attitude was arrogant-like, the like signifying that the pony was new to the force.
"Can you at least tell me what happened?" Twilight spoke calmly, as she could tell the pony was starting to get angry with her. "I'm afraid not, Miss. That is not up to me," he then looked up passed her, then back down. "But here comes the pony who it is up to."
Twilight turned her neck to see who he was talking about. There was a dark brown pony walking towards her. His mane was black, just like the night sky that he served under. His cutie mark was a shield on fire, with an arrow through the center.
"And who is this, corporal?" he asked, in a deep voice that resonated afterwards. "This is Miss Sparkle, sir. She claims that the unconscious body over there is her friend." replied. "Well then, come with me, Miss Sparkle." the chief said, walking away towards the unmoving body of Fluttershy. Twilight excused herself from the corporal and followed the chief.
When they reached the body, Twilight could hear Fluttershy moaning. "Is she going to be ok?" Twilight asked. "She should be. We believe that she hasn't suffered any internal injuries. There is, however, a wound on the back of her head, evidencing that there was an intruder in the cloud home above." He replied.
Twilight then just realized, she didn't even ask about Rainbow Dash. "Sir, what happened to the occupant of the home?" she asked. "Well, it seems there was an intruder in the home. We have no evidence as of now as to what happened." the chief said.
"Is there anything else you can tell me?" Twilight said desperately. "Well," he began, but was interrupted when Fluttershy instantly sat up and screamed, as if she just woke up from a nightmare. Twilight and the chief sat down besides her. Twilight began to comfort her, and asked "Fluttershy, are you ok?". "Yes, I'm fine now. Thank you for being her, Twi" she replied quietly. "It will be fine. But first, we have to find the one that hit you." Twilight said.
"But Twilight, that's just it. It wasn't just me." Fluttershy said sadly. "What do you mean?" Twilight said, even sadder that Fluttershy. "As I was saying before, Fluttershy isn't the only victim. There were two others." the chief interjected. Twilight gasped and Fluttershy began to cry when he said "others". "Please save all the gasps till the end, Miss Sparkle. I have much more to tell you. So, please be quiet until then. As I was saying before, We have identified them as Rainbow Dash and Soarin, the Wonderbolt." he said.
"WHAT!" Twilight screamed into the heavens, hoping the princess will hear her, yet, it was in vain. She looked over to Fluttershy, who sat there and began to cry even more.
