Did she have to hurt her foes? She looked back to the valve.

She really wanted to fly.

She really, really wanted to fly.

This story is a sequel to Absentia

After the events in the Factory, and the countless years in Canterlot Mental Hospital, Rainbow Dash is finally ready.

It's time to set them free.

Sequel to Absentia. Prior knowledge is required.

This story is set before the events of “Rainbow Factory” by Aurora Dawn

Rainbow Dash is pushing Scootaloo to her limits to make sure she’ll pass her flight test, which is now only a week away. Scootaloo can’t help but wonder why she’s being pushed so hard. She knows it’s important, but it’s not like it’s a life or death situation, right?

[Psychological Grimdark]

This story was directly based off 'Awoken': Wooden Toaster and H8 seed's spirited successor to the Rainbow Factory.

Food for thought, folks. I wrote this story on my own time and Obab later added extra material, three years later, when she converted the story into her audio production. She did not participate in the original production (if that was not clear already). If you read the story below you'll see the original, untampered text!

***

The decline into darkness had been easy enough... but when a high ranking Rainbow Factory employee begins to loose faith in the program and attempts to leave, things get out of hoof.

Having lived the majority of his life in the twisted building known as the Rainbow Factory-climbing up the brutal ladder and eventually becoming an Orchestrator-a lone colt finds the atrocity's he's committed in his past coming back to haunt him in his waking hours.

Driven by the need to return to normal society and the thought of redemption, he devises a risky plan that will ultimately decide the very fate of the Rainbow Factory as it's come to be known.

This story is a sequel to Feeding the Machine

I've been working in this place for as long as I remember, witnessing the demise of countless pegasi as their lives are innocently taken by the Pegasus Device. This has left me to constantly think about the entire aspect of this place. Why does the factory actually exist and have I finally awoken to chaos that surrounds me?

Based on "Awoken" by WoodenToaster and "The Betrayal (Act III)" by Nickelback.

Within his final moments, an inmate of the Rainbow Factory struggles with the reality of his situation. Every single second that ticks before his certain death, the pegasis questions the truth to what is really going on in the facility. Ultimately writing them down in a discovered journal, he talks about those frequent questions and the role he plays in this twisted place.

This story is a sequel to Rainbow Factory

With Scootaloo dead, Rainbow Dash's last threads of sanity are snapped, and she plummets into a dark insanity. However, her suffering is not alone. Word of the Rainbow Factory is out, and all pegasi are faced with horrible discrimination. In a world of hate, distrust, and pain can any light shine through?

In the Rainbow Factory, where not a single soul gets through.

Please note that while this is 'cannon', so to say, to Rainbow Factory, it is not to Pegasus Device. Credit for both of those stories goes to https://www.fimfiction.net/user/AuroraDawn.

I wrote this story for the five-year anniversary of the song 'Rainbow Factory' by Glaze/Woodentoaster.

Nobody knows what went through Scootaloo’s Absentia’s mind for those twenty years she was abandoned in the main theater room. Well, only she truly knows, but perhaps it was always meant to be. Until now, that is. Enter if you dare to discover the dark secrets that have been hidden for so long.

So this is my entry into the Rainbow Factory Contest hosted by AuroraDawn themselves. It probably won’t win but what the heck, there’s a chance.

His whole life has been in that factory, working day in and day out. So long now, he cant even really remember his own name, but not any more. He will get out of the factory or die trying.
