Inspired by the song of the same name by the Silversun Pickups.

All she needs is a shoulder to cry on. A friend, to listen, to understand, to comfort her.
And that's what Derpy's getting, right?
Or is it?
Is it enough to act like a friend?

This is the true test of a good friend. Can Derpy do what she knows is right? Or will she succumb to her torn emotions?

What is the right thing to do?

Rainbow Dash is missing. The last person to see her was Twilight Sparkle, but she can't remember anything of the night she spent with the missing pegasus. But as her memories return, she may learn that certain things are better left forgotten.

And that certain caves are better left unexplored.

Rainbow Dash's signature move doesn't work so well when she tries it amongst the Apple Family's orchard and hurts herself badly, with Applejack and Applebloom away in Appleoosa and the town Nurse away at a convention who will Big Mac turn to to help him care for the wounded pegasus?

Ah am looking for anyone with experience to review this and point out any obvious flaws with the spelling. grammar or story! So help me if y'all can!

[This is the Redux Version of the original Story which was pretty short and kinda rushed, Hope you like the updated version]
Rainbow Dash wakes up and doesn't know where she is, all she can hear is a faint beeping and some loose bandages covering her eyes. She has a distinct memory of the events before, but finds herself trying to keep it out of her mind. What exactly happened to Rainbow Dash?

I have gotten better at writing, this should be better than most of the things, I even pre-read it myself before posting
This is written to be an emotional fic and is dialogue and emotion driven, it's written to be a tear-jerker, but not meant to be an all-out tears flowing type of thing.

A short trip to Canterlot with Rainbow Dash and Applejack is the perfect opportunity for Twilight to test out her new long-distance Teleportation spell. But a nasty cold dashes the hopes of a quick trip, and makes the spell disappear in smoke: instead of arriving in Canterlot, the three find themselves in the nearby Everfree Forest, and discover that their location is not the only thing that went wrong.

While Rainbow has exchanged her wings and tail for a straw blond tail, Applejack has acquired a rainbow tail as well as a pair of strong, blue wings.

While Twilight attempts to find a spell to return the body parts to their rightful owners, the others must attempt to deal with this situation... and with their changing feelings.

The Princesses find an alien creature barely clinging to life at the scene of a terrifying crash. Can the Combined Power of the Elements of Harmony save it, or more importantly, should they save it? Will the arrival of this strange creature tear Equestria apart?
