Driven by guilt—and a tinge of curiosity—Twilight asks the pegasus for help in understanding the enigma that Pinkie Pie is.

What she is to discover, is bound to change her view of her earth pony friend in ways she could have never anticipated.

Five years after dealing with Discord, everything seems to be going Rainbow Dash's way. But she suffers a crippling injury which forces her to give up her element, and costs her the ability to fly. Now, as a war with the changelings looms on the horizon, Scootaloo must take the element of loyalty. But will she be able to handle the responsibility? And will Rainbow Dash be able to reclaim the skies?
Loosely based on the graphic novel Batman: Knightfall

Rainbow Dash: weather pony, Wonderbolt hopeful, Element of Loyalty, and the fastest flyer in Ponyville (in all of Equestria if you ask her). She is happiest when she is in the air.

So, what happens when she is no longer able to fly?

After an accident, Rainbow Dash loses one of her wings. Losing her ability to fly makes the pegasus feel as though she has lost nearly her entire identity. It also means the loss of her dreams as a future Wonderbolt. Headstrong and hopeful, Rainbow Dash tries to find a way to have her abilities restored.

The question becomes: what will become of the high flyer? Will she gain her ability to fly once more? Will she come to terms with what happened and seek out a new identity? Or, will the tragedy leave her a shell of her former self that even her closest friends cannot fix?

(This story is inspired by Dawn of a New Day by Furor. If you are looking for a Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle romance, you can go read his story.)
