Rainbow Dash burst into her old home slamming her body into the door forcing it to open. The police hot on her heels, with Comet's mother on the way. She ran inside. Her eyes instantly locking onto an unconscious Comet Streak laying on the floor, with an angry Firefly looming over him. She turned her head to Rainbow Dash and looked like she was ready to kill.
"You-" Firefly didn't even get a chance to finish her sentence. Rainbow was so angry that it only took one swing and Firefly was on the ground.
The police came up behind her. They pinned Firefly to the floor and cuffed her front hooves and wings behind her back, while medics and Rainbow Dash ran to Comet Streak.
"Comet!" "Comet?!" Rainbow Dash yelled desperately.
"The baby...." he mumbled.
Rainbow Dash seemed to be the only one who heard him.
"Oh no!" Rainbow Dash said jumping up onto her hooves.
"Is something wrong? Where are you going" A medic asked,
"Yes very wrong!" Rainbow dash yelled. "I'll be right back! Just take care of him! I have reason to believe that my Dad is out murdering a foal!" With that Rainbow Dash made her way though the crowds of cops and medics surrounding the home.
She flew as fast as she could down town leaving nothing but a rainbow train in her wake. The wind was pulling at her mane. The air the normally gentle wind was now harsh due to speed, causing here eyes to water and sting. This was normally a feeling she loved, but not today. Today was horrible! This wasn't some race or going at break necking speeds to practice some flying stunts. Now it was a race against time! life and death! A foal having a chance at life!
Rainbow Dash kept her eyes every where looking for a familiar periwinkle colored coat and rainbow mane. And any dumpsters that didn't have a lock on them. Most that had a lock were no longer being used or hadn't for several years. Finally Rainbow Dash's eyes locked onto her father. Or what was left of him sense he started drinking. He was leaving an ally. He zipped away and Rainbow quickly lost sight of him, not that she cared. She only got a glimpse of him but that was enough for her to tell he wasn't holding anything.
She zipped down into the ally, an ally she knew all to well. The dumpster by Pony Joe's. Rainbow Dash opened the dumpster and began tearing the trash bags open. Finally in the third one, she found a foal with a plastic bag wrapped around his head, and duct tape around his shoulders and chest. The tape was like a guard making sure no air got in! Rainbow Dash didn't even wast time trying to peel off the duck tape. Instead she ripped the top of the bag open, revealing a young foal with a rainbow mane. Quickly she dropped to the ground and began performing CPR on the what seemed to be a lifeless foal.
"Come on," Rainbow Dash said!
Stopping after a few pushes on his chest, before covering his nose and blowing into his mouth. Rainbow Dash repeated this process for what seemed like hours but was only about 3 minutes.
"No! Come on buddy! Come on! COME ON!!!! Rainbow Dash yelled, finally starting to loose hope.
She covered his nose and blew into his mouth for what would be the last time. Only for a true act of God, a miracle to take place! A little hoof came up and bumped the side of Rainbow Dash's mane. Rainbow Dash pulled back,
"Wwwwwhhhhhhaaaaaaa a, eh, eh, Wwwwwhhhhhhaaaaaaa a!" The colt cried Rainbow Dash burst into happy tears.
"Sssshhhhh, ssshhhhh. It's ok. Your ok now, don't worry your safe. I promise. Rainbow Dash said bouncing him gently.
She nuzzled him and he snuggled into her chest. He was very skinny, Rainbow Dash tried to use a hoof to rub the blood of his head, Rainbow thought originally that it was a large gash or open wound but was relived to find that it was just a scratch. It looked like It would need stitches but nothing that looked fatal. It simply looked like his head had been scratched on the edge of the dumpster. Rainbow Dash unheralded her wings and took off as fast as she could holding the foal safely into her chest heading back to the police and medics for help.
Tears of relief still streaming down her cheeks. It felt like eternity but Rainbow Dash finally made it back the medics patched up the foal and fed him. It turns out he didn't need stitches witch was a relief. Within the hour news reporters and police were all lined up for an interview with Rainbow Dash. Rainbow was informed that Comet Streak was ok and had been transferred to a hospital, and that his mother Comet Blaze was with him. That the foal was malnourished but otherwise would be fine with proper care and food. Rainbow Dash sighed in relief. The foal got a check up and was actually givin a name. Rainbow Dash named him Cloud Chaser. He had a baby blue coat with bright green eyes, and a rainbow mane.
"He will most likely be put into foster care. At least until the trial next week, and put up for adoption. No bail can get these two out of a cell now,"one of the officers told her. Rainbow Dash was silent, she took a deep breath.
"No!" she said. "I'm not going to let these two ruin another life like they did mine," Rainbow Dash said. "And I don't care what it takes! I'm not letting any pony take him! I'm 16 I'm old enough to get full custody!"
"If you want to fight to get custody.... you'd have to wait until trial. But by law if their is a caring family member who will care for him, they're entitled. I can tell you care, so if fighting for his custody is something your going to do. You can take him and care for him until the trial."
"Ok Rainbow said "I don't care what it takes! I will do this! For him! The officer smiled and helped Rainbow Dash write a statement she signed the papers. It was official. Cloud Chaser was now, officially in Rainbow Dash's care until the trial. Rainbow Dash went to the store and got him a Binky, food, a few toys and diapers.
