"...-light?"
"...Twi-?"
"Twilight?!"
Twilight's eyes snapped open to see Rainbow Dash standing above her looking like she just saw Discord, Sombra, and Queen Chrysalis all coming back for revenge. "What has gotten into you Rain-," her sentence was cut short by a stabbing pain coming from her wings. She started to cry "AHHH, RAINBOW! What in the name of Celestia happened?" Twilight half asked half shouted.
"I saved your bucking life! that's what happened! You were about to become a grease spot, probably in about 5 seconds!" Rainbow said with some small degree of pride in her voice. "Can you stand?"
"Yeah... I think so" Twilight responded through gritted teeth" She stood up and her wings nearly touched the ground and were bent in many unnatural places.
"That doesn't look good," Rainbow stated
"Well it certainly doesn't feel good either!" Twilight said as she rolled her eyes.
"Come on, Fluttershy will be able to help; her cottage isn't too far away."
The short walk took much longer than expected considering Twilight's broken wings. "Fluttershy, Fluttershy! Flutter-"
"Rainbow, I'm coming, what happened are you okay? Is there a villain coming back, *gasp* is there another dragon what abou- Twilight!" she talked frantically as she came up to the door, and then saw the crippled purple mare. "Oh my goodness, oh my goodness" Fluttershy said nearly incoherently. Rainbow, please don't tell me you tried to teach her to do tricks in flight."
"She wasn't; just how to fly." Twilight said looking slightly embarresed
"Come inside, Rainbow... lie her down on the ground and hold her hoof, I'm going to set her wings, and it could be awful painful for her."
"Okay, got it" Rainbow said as she got down next to Twilight, and took her hoof into her own.
Twilight at that moment, could only think about how much her friends cared for her. I'll need to tell Celestia about helping friends in need, and maybe do a scientific study on the effects of- She cried out when Fluttershy pulled her wing into a straight line; an intense burning was sent down her spine as her wings were set and again she fainted.
"Rainbow... I'm not so sure about this" Twilight said as she looked off of the edge of a cliff.
"Oh, don't be such a priss. This is how they teach you on the first day of flight school" Rainbow replied.
"Wasn't my first flight enough? Can't I just go back to the tree and practice hovering more." Twilight said as she again looked down the steep cliff.
"Come on, Twilight! Don't chicken out on me now." Rainbow egged on.
This pony is going to get me killed one day! Twilight thought to herself. She then slowly spread her wings, coiled her body like a spring, and jumped off the cliff. "Rainbow! I'm doing it!" Twilight shouted with glee as she glided slowly through the sky.
"Awesome, Twilight!" Rainbow shouted back, "Just don't look down."
"Don't worry I'm fi-" She was interrupted as she looked down. She doesn't exactly remember the next few seconds as total fear took control of her body. To everyone else, her wings snapped to her sides and she started falling like a rock. "RAINBOW! HELP ME!"
"Twilight! I'm coming for you!" I swear I should just stop saying 'don't look down' Rainbow cursed herself as she locked to an intercept coarse with the falling alicorn. For Twilight , the world was passing her by and her life flashed before her eyes. Something dense tackled her in the rib-cage, she was just able to see long enough to see Rainbow's fully extended wings then her eyes closed, she heard the sound of something impacting a tree, a mixed din of snapping bone and branches, and then all went black as she slipped into the hooves of Princess Luna.
